Chapter 66: The Death Battle
The sound of fighting woke up the dark night, and on the distant land, the wild wolves also howled.
The scouts sent back the battle reports from the front one by one, "General, the death camp met the enemy at the foot of the mountain, the enemy army was very fierce, and our army suffered heavy losses. ”
The death battalion was originally cannon fodder that was temporarily called up to test the enemy's ambush, and it was not expected that they would be able to break the enemy.
The fighting continues.
The rout soldiers in the front line fled to Li Yue's surroundings, and it has become a habit for these people to flee as soon as they encounter a big battle, shaking the morale of the army.
The veterans of Heiyun Mountain are brave and fierce, but the newly recruited soldiers may not be like this, and the military law should be established in the future, otherwise when encountering a real opponent, a small rout will lead to the collapse of the whole front.
"All deserters are beheaded, and the heads are sent to the front!" Li Yue ordered expressionlessly.
"Obey!" The scout rode after him on a donkey and a mule.
Voices begging for mercy and screams followed.
Zhang Shengye came to report with a bloody face, "General, there are as many as 1,000 deserters......
"None of them will be left." Li Yue's tone did not fluctuate in any way.
If the deserters on the battlefield are not dealt with, how can others be willing to fight bloody and fight to the death?
"Obey!" Zhang Shengye gritted his teeth and left, "The general has an order, and no one will be left!" ”
The sound of the blade slashing his neck sounded around, and Li Yue actually felt a little crisp......
"Report, General Wei asks for battle!"
"Not allowed!" Li Yue directly refused, and the sound of fighting in the front battle was not stopped, indicating that Xu Cheng was still fighting bloodily.
On the rugged mountain roads, no amount of troops invested would be in vain.
Li Yue has always had high hopes for Xu Cheng, and now is the time for him to show himself.
Everyone in this world has their own level to pass, and similarly, Xuanyuan Mountain is also a level of Heiyun Mountain.
The fighting became more and more fierce, and there were still routs fleeing back from the front, caught by the scouts, cut off their heads, and sent to the front.
The surrounding blood became more and more intense, attracting all kinds of wild beasts to watch, and a pair of green eyes flashed in the darkness, and the cold night made them even hungrier.
After about half an hour, the scout finally brought good news, "General, Leader Xu led the old soldiers of the death battalion to break the enemy army!" ”
"Good! The herald ordered the death battalion to rest, and Weishan attacked! ”
"Obey!"
In the past few months, there has been almost no moon and no battle up and down the Black Cloud Mountain, fighting with bandits and outcasts, fighting with wild beasts, and fighting against the harsh living environment.
The rugged mountain road may be a moat to others, but it is nothing to the people of Black Cloud Mountain, who go back and forth several times a day.
Dawn tore a white crack on the eastern horizon, and the cold night faded.
However, the battle ahead continued, and the people of Xuanyuan Mountain resisted desperately.
The scout rushed from the east, "A thousand horsemen from Mi County are rushing to this place, temporarily restrained by Zhou Changshi!" ”
Zhou Lian's hands are all young and strong, no armor, and the weapons are all in tatters, the last confrontation in Weishui, the people and horses of Mi County are quite elite, and it is okay to contain them in a short time, but after a long time, they will definitely be discovered.
However, the battle in Xuanyuan Mountain seems to have fallen into a stalemate again, and the fighting has become more and more fierce.
Li Yue led the scout camp forward, and there were corpses everywhere along the way, and the corpses of the deserters who had lost their heads were being eaten by wild wolves and wild dogs, and the blood gathered into streams, making the mountain roads muddy.
As soon as he arrived at the foot of the mountain, the scout came in a panic, "...... General Wei took the lead and led his soldiers to fight to the death, but was wounded by the enemy general. ”
"What about General Wei?" Li Yue's heart was shocked, after Meng Kai left, Wei Shan was one of the best in Heiyun Mountain, and he would actually be defeated?
However, this is not the first time, in the battle of Heiyun Mountain and Nanshan that day, Wei Shan also took the lead, rushed to the front, and was injured by the Gaoli guards.
"I was rescued by the soldiers."
Li Yue remembered that Cui Jin said that Xuanyuan Mountain's combat power should not be underestimated, and now it seems that it is not a lie.
With Wei Shan's injury, the sound of fighting on the mountain gradually faded.
A man stood on the big tree on the mountainside and shouted down: "Black Cloud Mountain thief, today is the time for you to die!" Hahaha-"
A burst of laughter erupted from the mountain.
Listening to these chaotic laughter, Li Yue felt a little funny, Heiyun Mountain is a thief, what is Xuanyuan Mountain? The Shunmin of Zhao?
The same is not to be seen in the north, and not to be seen in the south.
Xu Cheng's eyes were cracked, "My subordinates are willing to lead the death camp to go forward, and if they don't break this thief, they won't return it." ”
The men and horses of Mi County have already been dispatched, and if Xu Cheng is not successful, then he will face the danger of being flanked back and forth.
Glancing at the tired death camp and Xu Cheng who was still bleeding from the wounds on his body, Li Yue shook his head, "I'll personally go to Xuanyuan Mountain for a while!" ”
The retreating soldiers drooped their heads and their morale was low.
This is a sign of danger.
Wei Shan is certainly a brave general, but unfortunately he did not really change from a bandit leader to a general, and he invested too many troops on the narrow mountain road, unable to deploy, and was blocked by the enemy's fierce generals, stuck on the mountain road, and lost his ground.
Xu Cheng's level has passed, and now it's his turn.
This battle is related to the future living space of Heiyun Mountain, and as the lord of a mountain, he naturally cannot stay out of it.
"I am willing to fight to the death with the general!" More than 130 guards stood up.
"It's worthy of being my Black Cloud Mountain man." Li Yue laughed.
The calm laughter reassured the people around him.
"Kill the thief!" Li Yue raised the ring-head knife in his right hand, and held a hammer in his left hand, and the heaviness coming from the hammer made people feel extremely reassured.
Whoever loses will be a thief!
The cold wind was still howling, and the morning light passed through the dead branches, and the fresh smell of earth was mixed with a strong smell of blood.
And this bloody aura makes people tense instantly.
"Kill! Kill! Kill! "More than 130 armor soldiers carried bones, maces, hammers and other heavy soldiers forward.
The people who can use these weapons are naturally tall and mighty, and with the evil aura given to them by this bloody era, as soon as they appear on the battlefield, they are like a flood of beasts.
flutter, flutter, flutter......
The ground shook with the vibration of the armor.
Thousands of people looked up and looked forward to it.
Bang......
Stones and wood rolled down the mountain path.
Xuanyuan Mountain is steeper than Heiyun Mountain, but the steep mountain road also restricts the deployment of enemy forces.
Therefore, there are not many stones and woods, and they still roll down.
Those who are quick to react can easily dodge, and those who can't dodge directly use their bodies to carry them hard.
"Kill the thief!!" A soldier was spitting blood from his mouth, but he was still standing, holding his bones and pointing upwards.
"Kill!" The others quickened their pace and rushed up the hill.
The other party fought for most of the night, and naturally he would be tired, and the stones and wood would become more and more sparse, and the closer they were, the less effective these things were.
Someone shot two arrows, but in the face of heavy armor, they couldn't do any damage at all.
"Die!" A soldier jumped to his feet, his mace smashed down from his head, and the wind howled.
The other party was able to resist Wei Shan for so long, so he naturally wore iron armor and an iron helmet.
But the iron helmet was like mud under the mace, and with a "bang", the iron helmet was deeply dented, and something red and white popped out......
Sometimes, death is not terrible, who is not nine deaths in these years?
But the death was so miserable that the people around him were terrified.
The armorer lifted the mace upside down, stared at the stunned crowd with bloodshot eyes, red and white things splashed all over his face, and a white gas spurted out from between his mouth and nose, "Death!" ”
