Chapter 151: The Siege of Death Valley

With Ling Wuya's shout, the 30,000 Jin troops behind the stone pile shot out the arrows in their hands in unison.

This round of arrow array caused the Red Army Corps of less than 1,000 people to suffer a fatal blow again, and after only one round of arrows, there were only about 100 Red soldiers left who could stand.

Fortunately, the remnants of the Second Corps of the Red Army had followed, and the remnants of the First Corps, which had few remaining remnants of the convergence, continued to advance.

Within 100 steps of entering the stone pile, it is more difficult to march here, there is the arrow array of the Jin army in front, and there are rolling logs, rocks, and sporadic arrow shooting above the head, the soldiers can not defend against the upper and lower, and the lower can not be prevented, the Red Army has two whole corps, and no one is close to the stone pile 50 steps, all of them died on the way to advance, and the soldiers who are lucky enough can shoot back two or three arrows, but the vast majority of the Red Army died tragically in the canyon without letting go of an arrow.

The two corps were completely annihilated, and no one walked off the battlefield alive, but the Red Army did not stop there, and the rest of the army continued to advance, and people walked numbly forward on the broken corpses of their comrades.

As the battle continued, Jin Jun's first preparations for rolling wood and rocks began to be insufficient, Chu Lianyu immediately made a decision and divided a part of his forces, or went to cut wood, or to collect stones, in addition, he ordered the whole army to stop blindly throwing and archery, and must aim at the enemy before shooting.

The strength of the rolling logs and rocks smashed on the mountains on both sides of the canyon weakened, which gave the Red Army a rare opportunity to charge, and Xuanyuan Fang saw an opportunity to take advantage of it, and ordered the whole army to speed up the march, be sure to cross the stone piles, and rush out.

Despite the rolling logs and rocks that fell from time to time on the head, the third corps of the Red Army still retained more than half of its troops when it entered the stone pile for 100 steps, and its commander was not injured, and the 100 steps were already within the firing range. The commander of the corps shouted: "Release the arrows, the archers release the arrows!"

At his command, the archers in the crowd raised their bows and arrows and fired a volley at the Jin army above and below the stone pile.

At the same time as they were shooting arrows, the Jin army's arrow array also arrived, for a while. There were screams of arrows in both camps, but the Jin army had many more archers than the Red Army, and when they shot at each other, the Red Army suffered much greater casualties than the Jin Army.

The commander of the Third Corps kept commanding in the crowd, letting the infantry raise their shields in front of them, and the archers then released their arrows, his command was not wrong, but only a few thousand people, how could they rush past the arrows of the 30,000 gold army?

Every round of arrows flies. A large number of Red Army arrows fell to the ground, and after the five rounds of arrows of the Jin Army, there were only a few hundred people left in the original 5,000-odd Red Army.

The commander of the army watched his brothers fall to the ground one after another, rushed to the front of the corps commander, and cried and shouted: "General, withdraw, the Jin army's arrow array is too fierce, we can't rush out at all!"

"You're not wordy. If you can't rush out, you have to rush me, and if you die, you will die in front of the battle!" the corps commander grabbed the commander by the collar. Tearing his neck and yelling.

When attacking, Xuanyuan had already given an order, the previous corps was exhausted, the latter corps was on top, the martyrs who died on the battlefield, and those who escaped from the battle, the corps that followed in the rear were all killed.

Xuanyuan Fang gave such an order. Where did the corps commander dare to retreat? He would rather die in front of the two armies like the first two corps commanders than die at the hands of his own people.

"Keep rushing! If you are greedy for life and afraid of death, Lao Tzu will chop you first!" The corps commander raised his sword, and wanted to scare the commander, but a stray arrow flew over. Hit the back of the commander's neck, only to hear a pounce, and a sticky arrow poked out of the commander's throat.

The corps commander was still clutching the armor on his collar, but his body had softened, his pupils dilated, and his face turned to ashes.

The corps commander was shocked and frightened, subconsciously took two steps back, raised his eyes and looked around, and from time to time some of the soldiers around him were hit by arrows, some of them were hit by arrows and killed on the spot, and some were injured by arrows, fell to the ground, screamed again and again, and stretched out their hands to ask their companions for help, but before the brothers around him came forward to rescue, they were hit by several arrows and were nailed to the ground alive.

This is the power and terror of the Jin Army's arrow array, when the rain of arrows pours down, even the most experienced veterans have nowhere to dodge, even if they hide behind the corpse, the arrows can still penetrate the corpse and shoot it.

Hundreds of soldiers were shot into hedgehogs in the blink of an eye, the corps commander had armor to protect his body, but he couldn't withstand the continuous shooting, and he was hit by arrows in several places, he stiffened up and didn't fall, as if he was crazy, he yelled and raised his sword and ran forward.

The marching soldiers above the stone pile raised their arrows one after another, and when they saw the oncoming enemy generals, they shot arrows in unison.

"Plop, pounce, plop—"

Hundreds of carved feathers hit the body of the corps commander in unison, and the armor on the latter's body was shattered, and the whole person could no longer see its original appearance, and his body was full of feathers.

The body of the arrow ran forward a few more steps before he stumbled to the ground, unable to get up again.

The third corps of the Red Army also ended up with no survivors.

The battle was far from over, and then, the fourth and fifth corps of the Red Army rushed up one after another, and at this time, the Red Army had completely ignored the arrow array of the Jin Army, and rushed forward regardless of it, and people seemed to have become wood that did not know how to think, and had forgotten what fear was.

The enemy army rushed closer and closer, from 100 steps to 50 steps, to 20 steps, and then to 10 steps, and the Jin army on the stone pile could clearly hear the wheezing sound of the other party.

At such a close distance, the Jin army could no longer release arrows, and people took up their bows and arrows, picked up shields and steel knives, and prepared to start a close battle with the enemy.

The Jin army was on the stone pile, located on a high place, with the advantage of geographical advantages, and did not intend to rush down, but Ling Wuya suddenly roared, jumped off the stone pile with his sword, and faced the enemy army to kill.

Ling Wuya greeted the Red Army who rushed over, and as soon as he saw it, he unleashed the Heavenly Chaos, and dozens of Red soldiers who ran in the front bore the brunt of it, and they were beaten squarely, and they all wailed and fell to the ground.

The commander of the Red Army camp didn't know Ling Wuya, and when he saw that an enemy general took the initiative to rush down, he thought that there was an opportunity, and immediately rushed forward.

Ling Wuya didn't dodge, he raised his arm and threw the saber in his hand forward.

The saber slashed through the air, slashing the spear straight into both ends, and then continued to fly towards the corps commander.

The corps commander's frightened face changed suddenly, and he was instantly shocked into a cold sweat, and before the corps commander could react, he heard a thud, half of his body jumped out, and the other half of his body was cut off by the flow wave and crushed into several pieces.

"Plop!"

Half of the corps commander's body fell to the ground, and his internal organs and blood were spilled on the ground.

Seeing this, the surrounding red soldiers showed a frightened expression on their originally numb faces, and their legs involuntarily retreated again and again.

Ling Wuya didn't pause, and shouted: "Kill!" Then he continued to run forward, threw out the dagger in his sleeve, and slashed it forward, and in an instant, a long stream swept forward, and more than a dozen red soldiers were cut straight by the stream, their waists were broken, and they fell down screaming.

Ling Wuya's bravery aroused the fighting spirit of the Jin army, and the people looked at each other, then jumped off the stone pile with a roar, and followed Ling Wuya forward to kill.

Soon, the two sides came into contact and engaged in hand-to-hand combat.

The Red Army was already numb in the process of advancing, and the reaction speed was much slower than normal, and on the battlefield, the ability to react is crucial, often deciding the life and death of both sides.

As soon as the Jin army came up, they cut down a whole row of red soldiers, and then the people brandished their war knives and desperately slashed all the enemies in front of them.

The battle was not long, the Red Army had fallen a large number of people, and the counterattack of the Jin Army did not slow down, but became sharper, and even the Jin Army behind the stone pile put down their bows and arrows with enthusiasm, crossed the stone pile, and participated in the battle.

The soldiers of the Red Army had forgotten their fears and were numb by the falling rocks and rolling logs above their heads, but now they encountered the fierce and ruthless Jin Army like the devil, and the fear regained in people's hearts.

As a result, a fault line immediately appeared in the Red Army camp, and the soldiers in the front were fighting bloodily, while the soldiers in the rear were retreating as a whole, and the vacuum zone in the middle became larger and larger, and later, a section of open space more than ten meters wide was formed.

After a Red soldier in Zuihou who was fighting in front was hacked to death by the Jin Army, the Red Army behind could no longer bear the horror in their hearts and the sense of oppression caused by the enemy, screamed again and again, turned their heads and ran back.

However, the corps that followed behind them greeted them not with a powerful rescue, but with cold halberds and spears. (To be continued......)
