Chapter 797: The Moon is Dark and the Wind is High
"The Chu army is really here!"
At ten o'clock in the middle of the night, on the hillside outside the city, Lian Po looked at the dark shadow that was gradually approaching in the darkness in the distance, his eyes lit up, and his right hand couldn't help but clench the halberd handle.
Zhao Jun held his breath one after another, like a hunter waiting for his prey to take the bait, slowly waiting for the approach of Chu Jun.
There was a faint mist in the sky, although there was moonlight, but only a vague figure could be seen, and a little farther away, it was not very real, providing the most favorable environment for Zhao Jun.
Lian Po silently opened the Xu Lin Array, enveloping the army behind him, the Zhao Army, which was originally hidden in the dark, gradually blended into the surrounding environment under the cover of the Xu Lin Array, even if he stood in front of him, he couldn't see that there were thousands of troops hidden here without looking carefully.
Soon, the vanguard of the Chu army came to the bottom of the hillside.
"Xiang Ziqi, the Chu army is really as Si Nong said, the soldiers are divided into two routes, Xiang Pei leads the army to retreat, and Jingyang leads the army to the rear of the palace." Lian Po whispered.
The Chu army was simply calculated by Cai Ze, all their reactions were in Cai Ze's calculations, and even who led the army to retreat was not wrong.
Cai Ze smiled and said nothing, he directly brought into Jingyang and Xiang Pei's thinking to simulate, if he couldn't even guess this thing, so many years would be in vain.
Lian Po did not immediately order an attack, and it was not until the front row of the Chu army had passed two or three hundred meters that he gave the order: "Release the arrows!"
Suddenly, the sound of bowstrings exploded, especially piercing in the silent night, and dense arrows burst towards the Chu army like raindrops.
The unprepared Chu army was shot to the ground in an instant, and the remaining Chu army panicked and wanted to look for the enemy, but it was pitch black all around, and they didn't know where the enemy was or how many enemies there were.
At this moment, an inexplicable fear shrouded Chu Jun's heart.
"Enemy attack!" Xiang Pei held a big shield in one hand, blocked the arrows that were shot, and said urgently, "Don't be afraid, everyone line up in place and prepare to meet the enemy!"
Ordinary soldiers didn't know how many enemies there were, but Xiang Pei, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, quickly judged from the number of arrows that the Zhao army was only a few thousand, and at most no more than 10,000.
As long as the Chu army stabilized its position and waited for the rear army to slowly catch up, it would not be difficult to defeat the Zhao army.
But he miscalculated two things.
It is true that the Zhao army that has just released the arrow is only a few thousand, but the total number of Zhao troops is far more than thousands.
In addition, he far underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Zhao army.
"Brothers, follow Ben to kill the enemy!" As soon as the three waves of arrows rained over, Lian Po shouted loudly.
Behind him, the Xuanjia army threw away the bows and arrows in their hands, picked up the big shield and heavy sword, and roared towards the Chu army like a flood that broke the embankment.
Cai Ze silently mobilized his spiritual power and pushed a few dark clouds from a distance to block the battlefield.
Soon, the battlefield was plunged into darkness.
The Xuanjia Army's face did not change, and continued to rush forward, as if it was completely unaffected.
But Chu Jun panicked instantly, just now they could barely see the surrounding situation, now it is more than a meter, and they can hardly see anything, how can this be fought?
The unknown is always the most fearful.
In this environment, those who can not collapse are the elite of the elite.
can be like the Xuanjia Army, almost unaffected, no matter what is the sword mountain and sea of fire in front of you, as long as the order is given, and rush forward with your eyes closed, even if it is not the Army Soul Legion, you have the strength to fight with the Army Soul Legion.
But obviously, most of the Chu army does not want to say that they have the strength to fight with the Army Soul Legion, and they can't even be called elite.
"Death." Lian Po rushed to the front, and with a wave of the halberd, the thousands of Chu soldiers who were blocking in front of him flew out.
The darkness had a great impact on ordinary soldiers, but for Lian Po, who had already reached the Holy Realm, there was almost no effect, as long as there was a little light, he could clearly see the Chu army in front of him.
The Xuanjia army followed behind Lian Po, holding a big shield in one hand and a heavy sword in the other, as long as an enemy appeared in front of him, the sword flashed, and a population fell to the ground.
These ordinary Chu troops did not even have the qualifications to let the Xuanjia Army use the Great Shield.
The Chu army heard the enemy
The people had already been killed in front of them, and they fled to the rear, impacting the formation of the army, and some Chu troops stood unsteadily, and never got up again after falling to the ground.
The situation that Xiang Pei had worked so hard to stabilize became chaotic, and the formation of the Chu army completely collapsed under the constant impact, and the soldiers rushed against each other, coercing, and fled in all directions, no matter how Xiang Pei stopped it, it was useless.
At this time, it was pitch black, and the Chu army didn't even know where Xiang Pei was, but the Zhao army was in front of him.
Obey the command and save your life, most people obviously choose the latter.
Fu Yi stood in the back and heard the sound of shouting and killing in front of him, and led tens of thousands of strong men to quickly rush over.
"Si Nong." Fu Yu hugged his fists and said after seeing Cai Ze.
"Don't go into battle, just stand in the rear and shout kill, the louder the better." Cai Ze commanded.
These strong men were only recruited yesterday, although it is said that all the people in this era are soldiers, and many people have combat experience, but most of them have combat effectiveness...... It's not good.
Instead of stepping forward to create chaos and increase unnecessary casualties, it is better to wave the flag and shout in the rear to deter the Chu army.
It's enough to kill the enemy, and it's enough to have the Xuanjia Army.
Anyway, the whole battlefield was pitch black, and the Chu army didn't know how many enemies there were, let alone that most of them didn't participate in the battle at all.
"Kill!"
"Rush!"
"Capture Jingyang alive and capture Xiang Pei!"
……
Soon, the sound of Zhao Jun's shouting and killing came from around the battlefield, the sound was earth-shattering, I don't know how many people there are, these voices are still moving back and forth, and they may kill in front of Chu Jun at any time.
After experiencing several shocks, the Chu army was already panicking, and suddenly heard that there were so many Zhao troops around him who were killing him, and he completely collapsed, and fled in a panic.
The Chu army stretched for several miles, and before it knew what was happening in front of it, it was swept away by the fleeing Chu army, wrapped in it, and continued to flee towards the rear.
Fear is contagious, when countless Chu troops run wild and run away in the dark, fear will be quickly amplified, and one by one Chu troops are like frightened birds, and any sound around them will scare them everywhere.
Even if the two Chu armies collide together, they will fight.
In the dark, it is impossible to distinguish friend from foe, and even if it is an ally, it cannot be trusted.
At this time, no matter who stood up, it was impossible to prevent the rout of the Chu army.
This is also the reason why Lian Po does not let those young men participate in the war, he can guarantee that the Xuanjia Army will never cause chaos, even in the dark, they can resolutely carry out their orders.
But he can't guarantee the combat effectiveness and execution of these young people.
On the contrary, shouting and killing around and scaring these Chu troops can be more effective.
"Die!" Lian Po rushed in front of Xiang Pei, and the internal qi of his whole body poured into the halberd, and the halberd blade directly extended several meters long, and slashed towards Xiang Pei.
"Lian Po!" Xiang Pei swung a crescent moon to block Lian Po's attack, staring at Lian Po with resentment.
"Surrender, or die." Lian Po said in a deep voice, and attacked Xiang Pei again, the heavy halberd was as light as nothing in Lian Po's hands, and the air was compressed into the shape of a halberd at an extremely fast speed, and it smashed on Xiang Pei's body.
"Poof!" Xiang Pei spurted out a mouthful of blood, his chest instantly sank, and he didn't know how many bones were broken.
At the same time, the Xuanjia Army also fought with Xiang Pei's personal guards.
The Xuanjia army pushed the big shield forward, repelled Xiang Pei's personal guards, and when the enemy's foothold was not stable, the heavy sword in his hand followed, and a human head flew out.
As the top elite pro-guard army of the entire Chu State, facing the Xuanjia Army, which is the army soul legion, there is almost no ability to fight back, and it is completely pressed to the ground and rubbed.
"Brothers, fight with them." A thousand-person general shouted, and resolutely rushed towards the Xuanjia Army, the big knife slashed on the big shield, the Xuanjia Army did not react, and the rebounding damage directly killed the thousand-person general.
Countless pro-guards responded to the call, and rushed to the Xuanjia Army with the belief that they would gnaw off a piece of meat from the Xuanjia Army to death, and finally all died under their own attack, and the Xuanjia Army
Unscathed.
At this time, the strength of Xiang Pei's personal guard army was already about to threaten the Xuanjia Army, as long as he took one step further, he could cut through the defense of the Xuanjia Army.
After all, no matter how high the defense of the Xuanjia Army is, it is not invincible.
In fact, as long as you can reach the elite level, the extreme power that bursts out may threaten the Army Soul Legion.
It's just that the vast majority of legions can't burst out of their own extreme strength, so they can only stay at the current level.
And all the legions that burst out with this kind of power, as long as they are not destroyed, can at least become close to the existence of the military soul legion, and even a very small number of them directly become the military soul legion.
Just like the Longxi cavalry, before becoming the Army Soul Legion, its strength was not outstanding, but it became the Army Soul Legion.
However, Xiang Pei's personal guards were obviously not so lucky, under the blow of Zhao Jun, their efforts were more like a senseless struggle, no matter how desperate they were, they couldn't change the result.
"If you don't want the Chu army to be wiped out, it's best to order surrender." Lian Po said in a deep voice, and the blade qi slashed down from mid-air, leaving a deep scar on Xiang Pei's body, and blood gushed out as if he didn't want money.
Xiang Pei didn't speak, still gritting his teeth for support.
Lian Po's strength completely crushed him, and the Pro-Guard Army was not the opponent of the Xuanjia Army.
As for the rest of the Chu army...... It can't help at all.
However, as long as he can hold on for a while longer, Jingyang will be able to lead reinforcements to come, and he will definitely be able to defeat the Zhao army at that time.
"Tie it up." Lian Po slapped Xiang Pei out again and said to his subordinates.
The two Xuanjia soldiers ran to Xiang Pei, pulled out the rope from their arms, tied Xiang Pei with three strikes and five divisions, and the guards desperately rushed to kill, trying to rescue Xiang Pei, but they were all killed by the Xuanjia army.
"The general Zhao Guo Lianpo and the Chu general Xiang Pei have been captured by the general, so you will immediately lay down your arms and surrender, and the general can promise not to kill you. After ten breaths, all the soldiers of the Chu State who did not lay down their arms will be killed." Lian Po said loudly.
Lian Po's shouts did not have much effect, only a small part of the Chu army laid down their arms and surrendered, and the remaining Chu army was still fleeing, and the coercion of the large army made them unable to stop, and their own actions were no longer under their control.
"Lay down your arms and surrender or kill!" Lian Po shouted again, this time mobilizing the power of the military soul, like the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder exploding in the ears of the Chu army, all the Chu army's bodies were stagnant, and it took a few breaths before they reacted, and they all laid down their weapons and surrendered.
"Fu arrived." Lian Po shouted to the rear.
"General!" Fu Di hurriedly ran over from behind and looked at Lian Po with excitement, he had seen with his own eyes how Lian Po defeated the Chu army's more than 200,000 troops with 5,000 troops.
Well, he couldn't see what was going on on the battlefield, but he could feel it.
In short, Lian Po's battle is enough to become a god!
"Where's Sinon?" Lian Po took a closer look again, but didn't see Cai Ze.
"Si Nong was worried about General Yanxiong's place, so he went ahead of time." Fu Yi said.
"These captives have been handed over to you, if anyone dares to make trouble, kill them directly, don't be merciful." Lian Po admonished.
"Don't worry, general, if you let these captives go, the last general will cut off his head to the general." Fu Yu patted his chest and said.
Lian Po did not delay time, and immediately led the Xuanjia Army to rush in the direction of the Chu army camp.
He just solved only part of the Chu army, and there was still a part of the Chu army left in the Chu army camp outside the city, and only when all of them were solved could this war be considered a victory.
When Lian Po arrived, Yan Xiong was leading the Zhao army and the Chu army to fight.
This part of the Chu army led by Jingyang is the elite of the entire Chu State, and it is used to act as a sword blade and open up the situation.
This part of the Chu army has extremely strong combat effectiveness, even if it is compared to the Zhao army, except for the equipment is a little worse, it is not inferior in other aspects.
If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't exert his full strength in the dark, the Zhao army might have been defeated by now.
As for the other Chu troops, to put it mildly, they just followed the flag and shouted, and waited until the elite army opened up the situation, followed behind and rushed to kill together, fighting with the wind
The battle is okay, once you encounter a headwind, you can run faster than anyone else.
"Kill!" Yan Xiong was at the front, the halberd wielded in an airtight air, and the terrifying power even pumped the place where the halberd passed into a vacuum, even Jingyang was unwilling to face this kind of guy with natural divine power.
"Kill one Zhao Jun and reward 10,000 dollars. Kill a chief and reward 50,000 yuan. Kill the chief general of the Zhao army and reward 5,000 gold! Rank three up!" Jingyang shouted, anxious.
At this time, an hour had passed since he received the news that the Chu army had been ambushed, and if he could not rush to the battlefield again, the Chu army might be defeated.
He knew very well the combat effectiveness of the part of the Chu army led by Xiang Pei, except for Xiang Pei's personal guards, all the others were strong men who had been recruited for a short time, and they could also fight a tailwind battle, once they encountered an ambush, especially at night, they had no combat effectiveness.
With Xiang Pei's personal guards alone, he would definitely not be able to stop the Zhao army led by Lian Po.
Under the encouragement of Jingyang, the morale of the Chu army soared, and they rushed towards the Zhao army desperately, although they could not see the enemy clearly in the dark, but as long as they rushed forward.
For a while, the casualties of the Zhao army increased greatly, and even Yan Xiong's arm didn't know who was slashed, Yan Xiong didn't even look at it, and split the Chu army generals who rushed towards him in half with one sword.
"Kill!" At this moment, Lian Po led the Xuanjia Army to plunge towards the Chu army from the flank, and the rapid attack directly opened a big hole in the flank of the Chu army.
