Revenge Chapter XXXVIII. Six days of bloody battle! (a)
Midnight!
Early in the morning of the second day
The sky was unusually gloomy at this time.
Yan Xie looked at the gloomy sky and said, "Today is a good day to kill. ”
Huo Qianjian covered his head and came out of the room, he saw Yan Xie waiting for him at the door, Huo Qianjian hurriedly ran over and said, "The last general has seen the little prince. ”
Yan Xie asked with concern, "Did the general sleep well last night?" ”
Huo Qianjian replied: "The prince's wine, it is really a good wine, the last general didn't hold back, he was greedy for a few glasses, and almost missed a big thing, and asked the little prince not to blame." ”
Yan Xie waved his hand and said: "Alas, this is wrong, it was the king who invited you to drink, how can you blame it, I will bother the general today." ”
"The general comes with me."
Then Yan Xie walked out of the courtyard, and Huo Qianjian followed Yan Xie and came to the point of the army.
Yan Xie pointed to the soldiers below and said, "General, at this time, the four thousand seven hundred people transferred by this king from other places will be handed over to the general. ”
Huo Qianjian arched his hand and said: "Please rest assured, the little prince will definitely set foot on the black market!" ”
Yan Xie patted the shoulder of the fire thousand blades and said, "Hehe, this king believes in you, so, let's go." ”
Fire Thousand Blades replied, "Yes! ”
Then Huo Qianjian swept over the officers and soldiers below and said, "The whole army obeys the order and sets off." ”
The soldiers, neatly turned, and then left.
Huo Qianjian bowed to Yan Xie, and then said: "Please wait for the good news in the mansion, and a thousand people will be arranged to protect the safety of the little prince." ”
Yan Xie said: "There is a lot of work, so this king will wait for you to return triumphantly." ”
Fire Thousand Blades led more than 10,000 people to the entrance of the black market.
When the fire thousand blades came to the entrance of the black market, he frowned, the entrance of the black market was in a canyon, the entrance was not very big, and only more than thirty people were allowed to enter at the same time!
So this is not suitable for large corps operations! Easy to defend but hard to attack! It is no wonder that the palace has encircled and suppressed several times, but there has not been much progress.
Huo Qianjian said to the lieutenant general: "This place is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there must be an ambush at this gate!" ”
"Order, go to the little prince to borrow wine."
"Also, let the little prince bring me three catapults."
The lieutenant replied: "Yes! ”
Yan Xie heard that Huo Qianjian wanted to borrow wine, and then asked Ergou to buy three hundred jars of spirits!
Then three catapults were transferred from the battalion.
The lieutenant replied, "General, the wine and catapults have been delivered. ”
After hearing this, the fire thousand blades nodded lightly and said, "Throw the spirit over with a catapult." ”
The lieutenant replied, "Yes." ”
Then the adjutant shouted: "Catapult ready!" ”
When the catapult was all ready, he said:
"Put the wine!"
The soldiers quickly put the liquor into the catapult.
"Put!"
Woohoo!
Bang Dang! Boom! Boom!
The three jars of wine were all shattered at the entrance.
The mercenaries guarding the entrance were very puzzled by this move, and looked at each other and said, "What is this for?" Why should such a good wine be broken? ”
At this time, a person who had experienced it immediately came to his senses and shouted, "Run!" They're going to set fire! ”
Zhang Wu was very shocked when he heard this, grabbed the man and asked, "What did you say!" ”
The man said, "Captain Zhang, spirits are flammable!" They're going to set fire! When the time comes, all the traps we have set will be burned out, and if we don't leave, all of us here will be burned alive! ”
"My wife! That's how they burned it! ”
Originally, Zhang Wu wanted to use the trap to deal with them for a while longer, but now it seems that this first line of defense cannot be defended!
Then Zhang Wu gritted his teeth and said, "Brothers! Remove! Go to the second line of defense!
Then all the people retreated, and at this time, three hundred jars of spirits had all been thrown into the entrance.
Fire Thousand Blades order, set fire!
Then three bundles of burning firewood were thrown into the valley!
Fire meets spirits! One point of instant combustion!
Suddenly, a raging fire burned at the entrance!
Destroy the trap at the doorway!
The terrifying heat turned everything around it into scorched earth!
The fire burned for a day and a night!
In the early morning of the second day, a heavy rain finally began to fall.
The fiery red rocks, which had been scorched by the fire, made a sizzling sound under the erosion of development, and then crumbled into small stones little by little!
An hour later, the fire was finally extinguished, and the valley mouth, which was originally full of trees, turned into a scorched earth!
Huo Qianjian said: "The whole army obeys the order!" Into the valley! ”
As soon as the officers and soldiers entered the valley, they were ambushed!
Zhang Wu and others, after the fire broke out, have been digging the isolation zone.
They dug a barrier fifty meters wide and fifty meters long! Cut off the raging flames!
After the fire receded, they quickly returned to the valley mouth, despite the heat in the air, to block the officers and soldiers!
Because the valley mouth is narrow, the army cannot drive in.
Officers and men charged wave after wave.
After a fierce battle at noon, both sides suffered casualties, and after a fierce battle at noon, the mercenaries' bows and arrows were almost exhausted, and they were not replenished.
Zhang Wu sighed: "Hey, it seems that you can only fight with a white edge!" ”
He glanced at the more than 700 people around him who were still alive, and then asked, "Brothers! In the bloody battle at noon today, we paid 500 casualties! Fought out more than 600 officers and soldiers! ”
"This is a very big victory!"
"However, I have bad news, we don't have any bows and arrows, and next, we can only fight with the white edge!"
"Are you afraid?"
At this time, everyone shouted in unison: "Captain, we are not afraid!" ”
Another chimed in, "That's right! Ever since they killed my wife and children, I've only lived for revenge! ”
Zhang Wu nodded lightly and said, "Let's take another wave!" Then we retreat to the second line of defense! ”
"Yes!"
Two quarters of an hour later, the officers and men once again charged, and this time the cavalry took the lead!
As the cavalry was approaching, Zhang Wu shouted, "Wait! ”
"Wait! At fifty paces, release the arrows! ”
Dada......
The deafening sound of horses' hooves swooped down on the cavalry, followed by the infantry!
Soon the cavalry rushed to within fifty paces of the muddy ground.
Zhang Wuda shouted: "Put!" ”
Woohoo Blah ......
After this round of volleys, all the bows and arrows were consumed.
This round of salvo shot more than thirty people! Because the cavalry moves too fast!
Zhang Wu pulled out his long knife and shouted, "Rush! ”
The others saw Zhang Wu rushing out and followed closely behind him, for fear that they would kill one less person!
Zhang Wu of the Sevenfold Realm of the Tongmai was the highest realm among these people, so he rushed to the forefront!
Zhang Wu jumped up in an instant, cut off the head of the cavalry at the front with a single sword, and then rushed into the enemy formation!
In the crowd, the sound of heavy rain, accompanied by the sound of swords colliding, screams, constantly sounded.
Yes!
Second brother! You kill my second brother, I will fight with you!
Yes!
Give back my wife and children's lives!
The fierce battle lasted two full hours!
In the end, the officers and soldiers retreated again!
By the end of the battle, it was close to night, and it was clear that neither side could bargain for a night battle.
At night, Zhang Wu, who was covered in blood, sat paralyzed in front of the bonfire, and he looked at the only forty-one brothers around him, and Zhang Wu was very depressed.
Of the 1,287 brothers who were talking and laughing this morning, there are only 41 left!
And after this bloody battle, they only killed 470 officers and soldiers!
Zhang Wu sighed and said weakly: "Hey, brothers, we can't hold here, let's withdraw the second line of defense." ”
At this time, the forty-one people around you, you look at me, I look at you, and some people don't want to leave, and want to continue to stick here.
Zhang Wu and the others persuaded them for a while.
Persuaded, when it comes to the second line of defense, you can continue to fight with them, and the chances of survival will be greater, but the remaining eleven people just don't want to.
Zhang Wu had no choice but to take thirty people away, and before leaving, he selected eleven weapons that were still in good condition and handed them to the eleven people.
Zhang Wu then retreated to the second line of defense with thirty men.
After walking into the distance, Zhang Wu looked back at the eleven people, and he thought that for these eleven people, this should be the best place for them to be.
The rain was still pouring down.
Night Fire Thousand Blades looked at today's losses, and lost 1,130 people!
This result is also within the acceptable range, after all, it is a tough battle.
And it's where the terrain is so bad for itself.
The heavy rain stopped around midnight.
When Zhang Wu and the others dragged their tired bodies to the second line of defense, it was already close to midnight.
As soon as the thirty-one people were lying on the ground, they closed their eyes and went to sleep.
In the early morning of the second day, the officers and soldiers, led by a young general who repaired Yuan Yizhong, stepped into the black market!
Eleven dead soldiers, weapons in hand, stared straight at the rapidly approaching army, and there was no fear in their eyes!
Only Death's Will Will!
They are not afraid of death, they just hate not to kill one more! Avenge their dead loved ones!
They were the first dead soldiers to rebel against the Beiyong Palace! But definitely not the last!
Soon, the Iron Cavalry charged, stepping on the corpses all over the ground, and moving quickly, among the corpses all over the ground, there were more than a thousand, their brothers!
Soon, eleven people fell one after another under the charge of the iron horsemen.
When the eleven of them had just cut off the head of an iron horseman, the young general who cultivated Yuan Yizhong rushed up and entangled with four of them.
Soon eleven people fell one by one, in the blood splashed with the rain!
It didn't take long for the eleven warriors to fall!
Their will makes them fearless.
Their will makes them fight to the end!
Their will sustains them to fight until the last moment! Even if it's just a bite of their enemies!
Eleven people fought to the last drop of blood and killed two iron horsemen!
After all eleven had fallen, the Iron Rider stepped on their corpses and continued on his way.
Soon the second line of defense was reached, and there were 3,000 mercenaries here! A bloody battle will break out!
All the mercenaries have come to their posts, look at the black and oppressive enemy army in front of them, this will be a battle to the death!
No one knows if they will survive until tomorrow, but if they don't fight, their families won't survive tomorrow!
