Chapter 293: Suicide Attack
Dongying only felt dizzy and his eyes were black after he finished remorse, and he was about to faint. At this time, Shanxin hurriedly got up and stepped forward to support Dongying. Dongying is already old, and the fatigue of a few days is really unbearable.
So Sugishin attached Toei to the carriage and returned to the imperial capital with the troops of Kazukoku, and at this time, on a high mountain next to him, a child dressed in white was silently watching all this, he shook his head slightly, and then turned and disappeared into the mountains.
And Zhimin in the imperial capital was furious when he heard that Dongying had returned with the defeated army, and he slapped the table and scolded: "Dongying, this guy! I said at the time that I would send reinforcements to guard Kamigawa Castle first, but this old guy just wouldn't listen to me. Now it's okay, I was deceived by the hegemon, and now Shenchuan City and Changzhi City are lost. ”
The more Jimin thought about it, the more angry he became, and when he got angry, he directly kicked the table in front of him, and then pointed left and right and shouted to let Dongyoung come to see him. Seeing that the king was angry, Shanxin, who was a personal guard at this time, half-knelt in front of Zhimin and replied, "The king is angry! The marshal has been overworked for the past few days, and has fallen ill at home. May the king let him rest well for the sake of the old marshal's dedication to the country for many years. ”
As soon as Jimin heard that Dongying was sick, the resentment in his chest dissipated seven or eight points. Dongying, as the only master of nine solutions in the country, is an important combat force to resist foreign enemies, and if Dongying falls, it is equivalent to losing thousands of soldiers and horses.
Jimin, who calmed down, could only sigh, and he didn't want to disturb Dongying's rest, so he could only ask Shanxin to arrange personnel to tighten the garrison and prepare to resist the next attack of the overlord and Junguo.
And Jin Lili and Zhang Fan's troops rested for two days and were ready to set off towards the imperial capital, Mu Xiaofeng knew that at this time, there was no time to delay, as long as he defeated Heguo one day later, the royal capital of Junguo would be more dangerous.
At this time, the armies of Junguo and the overlord had already left the city and set off for the imperial capital, and after walking for about half a day, the armies of the two countries had already come to the place where they had pursued last time. Mu Xiaofeng looked at the mountains on both sides, which were stuck on the ground like two knives.
Mu Xiaofeng pointed to the mountains next to him and asked Zhang Fan, "These two mountains look very strange, what are their names?" ”
Zhang Fan knew what Mu Xiaofeng was asking without raising his head, and he slowly explained: "The mountain on the left is called Ghost Extermination Mountain, and the one on the right is called Shenzhu Mountain." It is said that the two swords in the hands of the sword saint of the country are in this mountain, but the sword saint is already a figure from two hundred years ago, and he may have died a long time ago. ”
Mu Xiaofeng had heard of the Sword Saint of Heguo, and it was recorded in the history books that the Sword Saint was the strongest person in the world, but he had never been ethereal, and he would only come out when there were two crises in Heguo. Once, more than two hundred years ago, the Hegemony and Junguo joined forces to destroy the Peace State, and the Sword Master repelled the 50,000 allied forces of the two countries with the strength of one person. The second time was when the demon clan invaded, the sword saint stood on the border with two swords in his hand and glared at the demon coalition army, and Xuyuan retreated directly without attacking.
"Imp! The Sword Master is very strong, and I went to the camp alone with the country. I thought that my strength in the Nine Liberations was invincible in the world, and even if I met a Sword Master with the same strength of the Nine Solutions, I would not fall into disadvantage. But the result was a complete defeat! Xu Yuan's voice appeared in Mu Xiaofeng's mind at this time.
Mu Xiaofeng gasped when he heard Xu Yuan say this, but he was glad that more than two hundred years had passed, and the body of a mortal of the Sword Saint was no longer in the world.
At this time, most of the allied forces had already crossed the mountain, and at this time, suddenly countless shouts were heard from the peaks on both sides, and the troops of the country rushed down directly from both sides.
At this time, Jin Lili was shocked, he thought that He Guo was now hiding in the imperial capital and did not dare to move, but now he dared to take the initiative to ambush and attack. Jin Lili was not in a hurry, he commanded the vanguard warrior troops to slowly retreat, protecting the Erudito and priest troops in the middle.
Mu Xiaofeng lifted the sword and shield in his hand at this time, turned his head and rushed towards the attacking troops. Mu Xiaofeng rushed to the vicinity of the core army in a very timely manner, but at this time, the raiding force of the Heguo had already rushed into the center of the Erudito and the priest's troops.
I saw a soldier of Heguo raise the big knife in his hand and slash directly at a polymath, Mu Xiaofeng stepped forward and blocked the attack with a shield, and then raised his sword in his right hand and slashed this soldier of Heguo to the ground.
But after the Heguo soldier fell to the ground, a bundle of black things appeared on his chest, Mu Xiaofeng squatted down to take a closer look, and he found that a bundle of explosives was tied to the chest of the Heguo soldier.
"Everyone, disperse, these Heguo raiders have explosives on their bodies!" As soon as Mu Xiaofeng's words fell, a group of archers and shadow men appeared on the peaks on both sides, and the arrows in their hands had already been ignited. The rocket fell from the sky and fell directly into the formation of the core troops, and all the explosives on the soldiers of the raid exploded.
Originally, the number of this small raiding force was not enough, and it was absolutely impossible to completely defeat the core force of the coalition army. But the explosives on their bodies are so powerful that one person can change more than a dozen lives. After their deadly suicide attacks, the Erudito and the priests were quite damaged.
Although Mu Xiaofeng survived, he was still a little injured. He couldn't participate in the next siege, and he could only recuperate in the rear in the next battle.
The coalition forces were slowed down a little by such a sneak attack by the suicide forces of Wakoku, but they finally passed through this narrow mountain road that day, and the magnificent imperial capital of Wakuni had already come into their sights. Jin Lili knew that the army was not in the best condition after being attacked by a sneak attack, so he ordered to camp and rest in place, waiting for tomorrow to launch an attack on the imperial capital.
The news of the stationing of the allied forces of the overlord and the Junguo soon reached the ears of the king and the king, and the chimin breathed a sigh of relief at this time, if it was not for the attack of the suicide force, the coalition army might have attacked the imperial capital tonight. However, the army was overwhelmed, and this suicide attack could not be delayed for long, and he did not know how to deal with the fierce siege of the coalition forces tomorrow.
At this time, suddenly there was an attendant outside the door to report that it was Generalissimo Dongying asking to see him. Jimin frowned slightly when he heard the news, and he thought to himself why Dongying came to see him when he was unwell.
"Your Majesty, since the old marshal must have something important to report when he comes, it is better to let the marshal come in and speak." Sugshin, who was next to Jimin, suggested that these days due to Dongying's illness, Sugshin has been accompanying Jimin and giving him advice. Of course, Jimin was reluctant to wait outside the door for Marshal Dongying to wait outside, so he asked someone to move a seat for Dongying to come in and sit.
Dongyoung walked into Jimin's dormitory, he knelt down while coughing and trembling and asked Jimin for peace, "Your Majesty, now that the forces of the Overlord and the Heguo are temporarily repulsed, I suggest that the suicide troops be used again at night to attack the enemy's camp." ”
Zhimin nodded slightly, and then motioned for Dongying to sit down, at this time Sugishin naturally disagreed, he said that although the suicide attack worked very well, but after all, this was a routine of injuring the enemy and injuring eight hundred. After the last suicide attack, if the overlord and the peace army strengthened their defenses and used the ranged troops to directly defeat the suicide forces, then these people would die in vain.
Dongying felt a little unbelievable when he saw Sugshin opposing him, after all, this kid has been obedient to him for so many years, and he has never publicly argued with himself. At this time, Zhimin was a little embarrassed, both sides were courtiers he trusted very much, and both sides were very reasonable, and Zhimin didn't know how to make a decision for a while.
Dongyoung saw that Jimin was a little hesitant, he glared at Sushin fiercely, and then slowly stood up from his seat. I saw Dongying walking in front of Jimin, and Jimin didn't know what the old marshal was going to do. Hearing only a plop, Dongying knelt down and pleaded bitterly: "Your Majesty! Our suicide attacks are certainly not a long-term solution, but the first two times the opponent will definitely not be fortified, and we can only use these two times to consume more of their troops. I hope that Your Majesty will be decided. ”
Jimin watched Dongying fall to the ground and didn't get up, after all, he was the generalissimo of the country, and he couldn't bear to watch the old marshal kneel all the time. So Jimin agreed to Dongyoung's request and told him to get up quickly.
After Dongyoung thanked Jimin, he asked Sugshin to go to the barracks to select a suicide attack unit, and Sugshin could only accept the order although he was reluctant.
After the two of them left the main hall, Dongying looked at Shanxin's back and stopped him, "Shanxin, I treat you like my own son, if you have any dissatisfaction with me, just say it, I don't want there to be any estrangement between us." ”
Shanxin was stunned when he heard Dongying say this, and he turned around to apologize to Marshal Dongying, saying that he didn't mean to target the teacher, but he really didn't agree with the suicide of the army. The sacrifice of so many brothers just now made Shanxin feel a little heartbroken.
Dongying slowly walked to Sugshin's side step by step, then patted him on the shoulder and comforted, "Child, I know you have a good heart, but this is war. Shanxin knew that what Dongying said was not wrong, so he could only sigh helplessly and leave.
Suginobu came to the barracks and conveyed the king's order to the soldiers in the camp. When these soldiers heard the news, they did not flinch, but instead signed up enthusiastically, wanting to be part of the suicide force. Shanxin was a little silent at this time, he knew that this mission had no return, but he was still moved by the desperate efforts of these soldiers.
So Sushin lit a thousand men and horses, and tied explosives in his armor, and he personally led the team to set off overnight towards the camp of the overlord and the country.
