Chapter 337: Encirclement and Annihilation
The cold faces of Lu Yuan and Yan Wu were revealed in the firelight.
Yan Wu looked at Lu Yuan. The latter nodded. Yan Wu raised his hand high and waved it down again.
In an instant, countless arrows and Xuan Qi energy poured down from mid-air, and the thieves rose to block.
But when it happened suddenly, they panicked again, and they were completely stunned by this first wave of attacks. z.br>
They began to scurry around, trampling on each other, not knowing how many dead and wounded.
General Wu shouted loudly, and after a period of confusion, the soldiers came to their senses and tried to organize resistance.
But the outer encirclement shrank smaller and smaller, and the attacks became more and more fierce, and the thieves fell one after another.
Seeing that the long-range attack was almost over, Lu Yuan immediately drew his sword in his hand and shouted, "Annihilation, kill them all!"
With that, he threw the long sword out.
The Demon Sword of Silence flew rapidly in the air, bringing up red sword shadows that instantly cut through the darkness along the way.
As it flew, the sound of the blade slicing through the armor and cutting into the flesh and bones came and went, and the heads of the thieves were in different places.
Seeing that Lu Yuan took the lead in attacking, Yan Wu immediately ordered, "The whole army will attack!"
"Rush !!"
"Kill!!
The soldiers came from all directions, and the momentum was like a rainbow. Seeing that there was no way to retreat, the thieves in the encirclement were heartbroken, and they also rushed up.
But the morale of the two was very different, and it didn't take long for the group of thieves who attacked the camp to be wiped out.
Only General Wu fled with a dozen or so cavalry.
Seeing them fleeing, Lu Yuan did not chase after them, he asked these people to report to the general guarding the city.
The soldiers cheered loudly, at least the foothold was secured.
Yan Wu smiled at Lu Yuan and said, "Although the Immortal Master is a person from outside the square, he is also quite familiar with military affairs. Today you reminded me to beware of thieves stealing the camp, and sure enough, they came."
"When my master was alive, he not only taught me the art of demon slaying, but also taught me the art of war, so that one day I could kill all the monsters that hurt people. He prophesied that there would eventually be a large-scale war between the human race and the demon race. At that time, it will not be one or two monks who will be able to control the tide of battle, but will have to rely on groups and the art of war."
"The Commander was indeed prescient. In recent years, strange phenomena have occurred frequently, and it seems that something big will happen, but it is always impossible to say. We have no choice but to prepare carefully for the battle, and we dare not slack off for a day."
Lu Yuan looked at the soldiers who were cleaning the battlefield and said slowly, "General Yan has managed the army in a good way, and he has guarded the southern gate for the Son of Heaven for decades, which is indeed a great merit."
Yan Wu looked up to the sky and laughed: "Hahaha! I can't talk about the credit. The old man just wants to find a remote place to live and be at ease. Don't say anything to guard the country, this Shu is my home. Defending against foreign enemies, to put it bluntly, is also out of my selfishness."
Du Shimei wiped the blood stains on the long sword and said, "Brother Shi, the people's opinion of you is also two extremes."
"Brother, as the saying goes, people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes. You all only see me exploiting the people, but you don't know how much I have to spend to defend the Shuzhong Alliance? Problems that can be solved with money are not called problems. I'm afraid of things that can't be solved with money. You have been in the study all year round, and you may not be able to understand these truths."
"I understand your struggles."
Yan Wu said again: "After a lifetime of fighting, my brother also wants to enjoy it. I'm not like the immortal master and you, who have no desires and no desires. My cultivation is also known to me, and there is no possibility of improving it anymore from the sixth-order two-star. Although my life span has been extended a lot, I can't improve my cultivation, and you don't know how difficult it is to endure these days."
Lu Yuan nodded and said, "That makes sense. But General Yan should not be too pessimistic. Maybe there will be a fairy fate in the future."
"Hahaha! The old man borrowed the auspicious words of the immortal master. Let's hope so. Ladies and gentlemen, after the battlefield is cleaned, we can rest in peace."
