6. The Decisive Battle of the Wild Sands Chapter 421 Cynthia's Journey
After returning from New Oasis City, the Black Mamba seems to have reverted back to its secluded appearance, much to Maya's dismay.
"What a headache, I thought she'd become cheerful now." She complained, "Who would have known that this woman would have locked herself in a small room all day and didn't know what she was doing." ”
"You don't have to worry about that." Nick doesn't care about that, "You have to believe that when people see something better, they will change themselves spontaneously. It's just that the way she changed is something we can't understand for the time being. ”
Nacian also advised, "Yes, if you look at the people who have gone home to visit their relatives, their mental outlook has changed dramatically. ”
"It's just ......" Captain Bud checked the form and suddenly asked, "That lady named Cynthia doesn't seem to have come back?" ”
"Oh, that's an exception." Nick suddenly remembered something, "Sorry I forgot to tell you, after the unsmiling general agreed to her to visit her family, she went to the Temple of the Wild Sands and came back." ”
"Temple of Wild Sands?" Several people asked in unison, "What is she going to do there?" ”
Nick shrugged, "How do I know." ”
……
As night fell, outside the Temple of Wild Sands, three alpacas were slowly approaching the barracks of the Red Pavilion, and Cynthia, guarded by two soldiers, came to the station where Bu Xiao was stationed.
As if she had known she was coming, Danica had arranged for someone to wait at the gate of the camp. Cynthia: They had just arrived and were taken to the unsmiling tent.
"You're here a few days earlier than I expected." Don't smile in the tent and look down at the map.
Cynthia looked at the expressionless appearance of not smiling, but she felt weak in her heart and didn't know how to respond.
"I don't have time to entertain you right now." Bu Xiao raised his head and looked at an hourglass next to his hand. The sand and gravel in the upper layer are falling at an even rate, and there are not many of them.
Fili suddenly opened the tent and walked in, "It's all ready." ”
"Okay." Buxiao stood up, and several guards on both sides immediately helped him put away the map and everything in the tent. He looked at Cynthia, "Take her with you and retreat immediately." ”
Fall back?
Cynthia had never seen such a tactic of retreating inexplicably, but before she had time to think about it, Danica had already grabbed her hand and strode out. I saw that the tents in the barracks were still brightly lit, but the soldiers were hurrying to pack the belongings beside them.
"Get out of the way, the big army is coming." Several soldiers came over with a large bundle of scarecrows and stuck them around the barracks.
Before Cynthia could understand what they were doing, Danica had already dragged her onto a cart full of things. The alpaca pulling the cart called, and Cynthia had already pulled people and goods out a long way.
"What are we doing here?" Cynthia looked around curiously.
"You'll find out later." Danica was just concentrating on catching the car and didn't explain. The cart drove straight to a nearby dirt hill and drove straight into a pre-dug cave.
Danica jumped out of the car, and several soldiers who had been waiting for a long time hurriedly covered the hole with coarse cloth and sand.
Just by looking at their actions, Cynthia knew that this was supposed to be a trap.
……
On the barren desert, the stars dot the night sky, silent and mysterious.
In the distance, a team of sparkling fires was hurrying through the starry night. Demon Star and Demon Night Shadow are hurrying back to the Wild Sand Temple with the powerful Triangle Earth Dragon and the remaining remnants of the Demon Clan.
Demonic Star sat quietly on the carriage with his staff in both hands, and Nightshade turned his head to look in the direction of the Wild Sand Temple in the distance with his dark greatsword.
"Old immortal, did you say that the bandits of the Red Pavilion have really rushed to the temple?" Nightshade asked suddenly.
"Don't underestimate them." Demon Xing said in a deep voice, "The people of the Red Pavilion are very strange in their use of soldiers, they don't pay attention to common sense, and they don't follow the rules. If they do send heavy troops to attack the temple, we can't afford to play this gamble. ”
"But we don't seem to see a single soldier along the way." Demon Night Shadow wondered, "In this kind of battle situation, the best choice for the Red Pavilion should be to encircle the point and send reinforcements. But we have been walking for so long, and there are no troops to harass us, and if we go on like this, the temple will be reached. ”
Demon Star shook his head, "I don't know what they're doing, maybe we got the first opportunity, maybe they thought I had died in Baisha Spring, anyway, the only thing we can do now is to continue to hurry as soon as possible." ”
While the two were talking, the scout in front came back and reported: "Report, outside the temple ahead, a large number of garrisons have been found!" ”
Naturally, Prince Babu would not abandon the defense of the temple and station it outside for no reason, if there was really a garrison, then I am afraid it would be ......
Demon Star and Demon Night Shadow looked at each other, bowing slightly. "The whole army stopped." Demon Star stopped the demon army and looked at Demon Night Shadow, "Let's go and see first." ”
The two of them climbed a sand dune with several scouts, and as far as the eye could see, a vast military camp suddenly appeared on the empty sand outside the temple. The barracks were as well-established and orderly as an elite army.
When the Demon Star and the Demon Night Shadow saw the sudden appearance of the army, they were shocked, and immediately took a few steps back and hid.
"Is it the Red Pavilion?" Nightshade asked.
"Yes." Demon Star confirmed, "I can't be mistaken about the banner of the Scarlet Raven. ”
Nightshade pondered, "The camp of this army seems to be well-arranged, but in my opinion, there is still a slight flaw in the garrison. ”
Demonic Star's eyes lit up, "What did you find?" ”
Taking advantage of the darkness, the Demon Night Shadow looked into the camp again, "You see, although they have set up a lot of sentry posts, the soldiers are staggering, and they are estimated to be asleep. ”
Demon Xingxing immediately understood what he meant, and a sneer hooked up at the corner of his mouth, "This group of guys from the Red Pavilion is really arrogant, we might as well sneak attack their camp at night and catch them off guard." ”
He drew a sketch on the ground with his staff, and said to Nightshade, "Although there are only two of us, it is better to divide the troops into three ways. Sent the Triangle Earth Dragon to lead fifty Twin Blade Ghost Face Soldiers to attack the camp head-on to attract firepower, and thirty Red Flame Demons were responsible for setting fire to the smoke, charming ears and eyes. ”
Then he drew two diagonal lines from both sides of the camp gate, "The two of us each bring five hundred demons to ambush on both sides, and when the fire starts, the enemy army will be chaotic, let the wild bull demons fire cannons in the back to cheer, and we will rush in together and kill anyone we see." The enemy army must have collapsed. ”
"Good means." Demon Night Shadow nodded approvingly, "I didn't expect that you, an old immortal, are not only good at soul arts, but also know so much about tactics. ”
Demon Star smiled proudly, "Harm, it's not that the Babu prince forced it. ”
After the two discussed for a while, they immediately returned to the legion, ordered the demon soldiers, and the whole army divided into three ways, taking advantage of the cover of night, and quietly approached the barracks of the Red Pavilion.
A demonic beast roared and instantly broke the calm of the night. The triceratops roared first, like a hungry wolf, and rushed towards the unsuspecting sheepfold. The double-knife ghost-faced soldier who followed behind his hands was cold and shining, and his killing intent was fierce, and he rushed into the barracks of the Red Pavilion and slashed and slashed with impunity.
The Flame Demon spewed fire everywhere, and the entire Red Pavilion barracks was in flames for a while, and the smoke was filled, and he couldn't see his fingers.
"It's time!" Nightshade drew her jet-black greatsword and shouted, leading a demon army to kill. Demon Star waved his wand and gave an order, and the soul cannon behind the Bull Demon rumbled, causing the surrounding mountains to shake.
The battle situation was very good, and the demon army was like a flood beast, and it did not encounter the slightest resistance at all, and destroyed the military camp of the Red Pavilion to a pulp.
The Demon Night Shadow carried the magic sword and slashed dozens of times before he suddenly felt that something was wrong, "Have these sentinels all fallen asleep?" ”
It was only then that he realized something, and turned around and kicked the corpses that had just been cut in half, only to find that they were all scarecrows.
"Not good! Fooled! The Night Shadow hurriedly shouted at the Demon Alien Star, "We've been tricked, get out!" ”
Demon Alien Star is a soul magician, and his attack relies on long-range soul magic, which is far away, and he doesn't know that he has been fighting for a long time is a scarecrow. Seeing the Demon Night Shadow hurrying towards him with a giant sword on his back, he realized that something was wrong.
But they woke up a little too late.
"Boom!" With a cannon shot, a group of centaurs suddenly jumped out from under the sand, and Filip led them with a flail in his hand to take the Alien Star.
Demonic Star was just about to summon the Triceratops and the Twin Blades Ghostface to come to the rescue, when he heard a horn sound, and several carts came out of nowhere under the pull of alpacas. There were four powerful crossbows on each of the carts, and they shot at the double-bladed ghost-faced soldiers.
"Just because you also want to defeat my 'Twin Swords Ghost Face Soldier', it's just delusional." Exotic scoffed.
But before he could laugh for a moment, he noticed that the tide of battle seemed to have changed.
The repeaters were not fired one by one, but two arrows in a group. Between each set of arrows are vines, which are coated with sticky sap.
When the crossbow is fired at the Twin Blade Ghostface, it does not shoot directly at the Ghostface's body, but at both sides of its knees. In this way, when the rope comes into contact with the Ghostface, it will quickly tie up on their knees due to the inertia of the arrow.
No matter how powerful the Ghost-Faced Soldier is, he has to walk on his feet. Just such a simple vine trapped the masterpiece that the Demon Star was most proud of in this life.
The three-cornered earth dragon still wanted to break through, and another group of men and horses came out behind the chariot, and the red-haired female general in the lead was none other than the powerful Danika. She swooped out with a hammer and struck right on the severed horn of the triceratops, adding new wounds to the old wounds, causing the earth dragon to scream in pain with the short horns.
The flames in the Red Pavilion barracks were soaring, but countless Red Pavilion soldiers appeared outside the barracks, blocking the demons who came in and set fires in three circles and three circles outside. Many demon soldiers had no way to escape, some were burned to death by their own fires, and some were trampled to death by their own people, and for a time it was as tragic as the Shura field.
