Chapter 20: The Grim Reaper Takes Place

Without Daqingshan, the most powerful empire in the pan-continent might have come to an end in the 5th year of the magic calendar.

In the second half of the night, in a low snoring, Da Qingshan was suddenly awakened by an inexplicable horror - I don't know what it was, it seemed to be a danger that he had once known, and Da Qingshan felt a cold in the depths of his nerves.

Da Qingshan quietly woke up the four mercenary warriors beside him, and then woke up more people.

When Da Qingshan peeked out from the tent, he just saw that the last Imperial Knight was being killed by two black horse phantom beast knights, and the abnormal handsomeness of the black horse in the snow not only killed with one blow, but also reminded Daqing of what happened in the frozen continent five years ago - the black horse knight attacked the team to meet the phantom beast.

All of them, including the Redstone Emperor, were quietly lurking in the snow that was not very deep with the help of the soldiers of the small mercenary group, with only two swordsmen lying in ambush in the tent.

Just when the black horse knights were confused, with a sharp whistle from Daqingshan, all the imperial soldiers jumped up from the woodland, tore the natural powder bag in their arms and threw it at the black horse knights, and then more than 20 phantom beast knights joined forces every 4 to attack the chaotic knights.

With a team of 500 Ink Black Horse Knights raiding the armament of more than 80 people in the snow, even if there are 30 Phantom Beast Knights in the opponent, it is not too difficult, after all, it is in the snow, and the Black Horse has a great bonus.

However, the commander of the Black Pony Knight only overlooked one point: all beasts are afraid of fire, including domestic animals that have been raised by humans for a long time. Phantom beasts are not afraid of fire. And once this point is used by someone with a heart, it is enough to turn the tide of the battle.

When more than 80 packets of natural powder were thrown into the knights' group, the tawny powder exploded, and at least half of the black horses were stained with natural powder, and after a few breaths, golden flames began to burn on the mount. The horses neighed in horror, the heat burned the skin of the horses viciously, and more than 300 neat knights immediately exploded, and the black cloaks of the knights were also burning, and the knights were constantly thrown out during the struggle of the mounts, falling on the snow, and the red color suddenly stained the earth.

In stark contrast to the chaos of the black horse knights, the phantom beast knights who joined forces with the four of them were obviously proficient in the skills of joining forces to fight and charge, and the phantom beast knights, especially the older phantom beast knights, were undoubtedly extremely good soldiers, and every time they struck, they pointed directly at the enemy's limbs, and the four weapons could basically put down a knight who was being circled in two breaths.

Only a true warrior would do this, and it is far more difficult to deal a fatal blow to an enemy on any battlefield than to attack the opponent's limbs, and if the limbs are wounded, even the most courageous warrior will lose most of their combat capabilities. Moreover, a fighter who injures his limbs will greatly reduce the opponent's overall strength and morale.

The battle around the tent immediately appeared one-sided, the battle team of less than 30 people slaughtered hundreds of knights without any pause, there were constantly fireballs of war horses screaming and slamming into the trunks of trees, and stumps constantly flew up, less than 60 breaths, blood red had replaced snow white, becoming the main color of the battlefield.

The three black horse phantom beast knights took off into the air, commanding the knights who were besieging the front and rear to gather their ranks to surround and kill the fugitives.

However, it seemed that it was too late, at least the more than 100 Ink Black Horse Knights of the Empire took advantage of the gap in the encirclement of the other party, and after more than 20 Phantom Beast Knights broke off, the others quickly retreated north. In the face of more than 20 Phantom Beast Knights, a knight squad is not sure of victory. Moreover, more than 100 knights had just been killed, and more than 200 war horses were still neighing and running in horror in the firelight, and the knights on the periphery had no time to dodge, let alone maintain a neat line. To make matters worse, almost all of the more than 100 knights who were attacked had lost one of their limbs, and blood from their arteries was spraying in the icy snow, and they would have died without immediate first aid.

The inky black horse phantom beast knight at the forefront of the team let out a long sigh from his mouth and fell to the ground, ordering the heavy knight to dismount and treat his companions, so that the other two phantom beast knights quickly returned to the imperial capital to ask for reinforcements again. It's just that he knows very well in his heart that it is estimated that it is unlikely to catch up again, within the scope of his knowledge, the Ink Black Horse Knight Force in the hands of the former Imperial Vice Prime Minister is all here, and in the snowy mountains, other knights cannot go deep into the hinterland of the forest to track.

After getting out of trouble, the Red Stone Emperor and his entourage did not stop, sticking to the ridge of a remnant of the snow mountain, and went to the north, along the way, Daqingshan and the four mercenary boys made more than 10 simple sleds in a row, just 6 snow wolf knights and 1 black horse knight among the phantom beast knights, just as the snow beast that pulls the plow, but, it's a pity that there are 7 great phantom beasts, the Redstone Emperor is still laughing at himself, if such a picture is passed on to future generations, maybe how many emperors will use it as a negative teaching material: others are all for Bo Hongyan to lose the country's society, and the Redstone Emperor has fallen into the shameless situation of using phantom beasts to pull sleds and let phantom beast knights be coachmen。

The two chief officers of the military department and Da Qingshan sat on a climbing plow, and General Luo Hui pretended to ask casually: "Da Qingshan, after Your Excellency Amy comes back to command the little mercenary group, do you have any ideas to do something in the military circles? What do you think?"

The military department of the Imperial Army is notoriously strict and rigid among the various departments of the Empire, and all officers must be promoted by military merit, and in order to promote the officers they like, they even do not hesitate to cause small troubles in the border areas or cross the border to pursue bandits. It's just that, observing along the way, several chief officers of the military department spoke highly of Daqingshan, especially the two ingenious ambushes and the application of spontaneous combustion powder, which is quite the demeanor of a famous general who lifts heavy weights like a big man and has no work, where is the strength that a mercenary regiment cadre should have, and he is a military chief officer if he is put in a random position in each major theater for three or five years. Thousands of troops are easy to get, and it is difficult to find a general, and several generals have moved their hearts to love talents. The title of captain of the Ace Knights is also considered to be enough capital.

Daqingshan was stunned for a moment, and habitually grabbed his hair with his hand: "This ...... There are also a lot of things going on in the small mercenary group, and I don't know if I can put it down. Between the words, the meaning of the prevarication was undoubtedly exposed.

Oh, the two generals shook their heads with a wry smile.

......

When Ji Aotian woke up, it was already the afternoon of the seventh day after the incident.
