Chapter 238: Battle of the Pine Forest

The Yan and Huang troops have modern military thinking, and the "three armed forces" in the establishment are also evolved from the navy, army, and air force.

The F19 Infantry Battalion is the Army, and the Dragoon Battalion is undoubtedly the most powerful air force in Tianshuxing; as for the largest camp with cold weapons, although it has nothing to do with the Navy, if they really want to fight a war at sea, it is not difficult to rely on their foundation for the Camp Battalion.

In mid-February, when Chu Yunchuan officially received the order to take command of the expedition, the people in the entire Hudi City became a little silent, they were a little reluctant to get along for so long, and they were also a little regretful, of course, the most was sympathy, but everyone tacitly didn't say it when they said goodbye.

On this day, it was cloudy.

The reorganized three armies, with Chu Yunchuan as the deputy commander, and 25,000 people embarked on the journey in a mighty manner.

On the rugged mountain road five miles away from Neckmouth City, the snow had not melted, and there was a rancid smell in the air. After seeing more, Chu Yunchuan's brows furrowed tighter, and he restrained the six-winged mecha beast under Kuà to look forward, and the army behind him was also forced to stop advancing.

The white bones on the side of the road made the crow that followed behind a little gloomy.

Half a month ago, the siege failed, and the crow was criticized by Kurosawa as "stubborn for his own use", but he was not demoted, however, he knew very well that it was not that Kurosawa did not want to dispose of him, but that he urgently needed to use people at the moment.

The crow rode the six-winged Heavenly Tiger Mecha Beast to Chu Yunchuan's side, and said with emotion: "Actually, I want to collect the corpses for my brothers, but the conditions do not allow it. That night the fight was too fierce! Wu Wei led his troops to chase around from the east, and after we withdrew to the Silver Valley, we had no chance to come out at all. ”

Chu Yunchuan was silent.

The crow said sincerely: "In today's battle, you can fight as you say, brother, and I will fully cooperate." ”

"You take the dragoon battalion to the north gate where the defense is the strongest, and shout, pretending to attack the city, but only scolding but not attacking, if the other party goes out of the city to fight, he will quickly evacuate! ”

"Yes!"

The rest continued on and set up camp in the cedar grove ahead. Before dark. Seventy-two Earth Shattering Soul Arrays have been deployed!"

When fifteen hundred dragon knights, or riding winged dragons, hornless dragons, or five-clawed divine dragons, flew mightily over the vast sky, the other two troops also accelerated the pace of advance with Chu Yunchuan.

The so-called "cedar forest". It is an ancient forest that is only less than three miles away from the north gate of the neck. The forest is sparsely pine. But the color of the pine tree was white, as white as snow. For Chu Yunchuan, this is the first time he has set foot on this land. His knowledge of the cedar forest comes from the map, but after arriving here, he feels that the reality is not far from the map, and it is very suitable for setting up formations.

In the case of the huge difference in the strength of the two armies, Chu Yunchuan had no way except to set up the formation.

In order to lure the enemy into the formation, Chu Yunchuan deliberately disguised all the white soul locking flags and black soul conjuring flags required by the seventy-two Earth Demon Soul Refining Arrays as branches hanging snow and ice, thirty-six soul locking flags were arranged on the periphery of the cedar forest, and thirty-six soul conjuring flags surrounded the blood-patterned soul training pillar in the center of the formation core.

After the big array was arranged, Wu Hao rode over on a mecha beast and asked, "Deputy Marshal, as soon as this big array is activated, will our own people also be trapped and die in this array?"

"I have injected the information of friend and foe into the Soul Refining Pillar, and the Martial Soul recognizes the military uniform on your body, as long as the skin on your body does not take off, it will be fine. Chu Yunchuan turned around and ordered aloud to the more than 20,000 troops behind him: "The whole army immediately disperses and hides! Without my order, no matter at any time and under any circumstances, you must not make the slightest trace!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers quickly dispersed.

Frankly speaking, it is not easy to hide in a snow forest with only cedars and no other thorns and grasses; those who have the ability to do so know how to cast spells and escape into the cedar trees like demons, while those who do not have the ability can only dig a pit and bury themselves in the snowdrifts, which is very cold, but this is the need of war!

In the blink of an eye, more than 20,000 troops completely disappeared to the ground.

Three hours later, there was a report from the front, and the shouting and scolding had reached the high cháo, but this so-called high cháo lasted a little too long, and this wait, without knowing it, stayed up late at night. Chu Yunchuan, who was hungry, caught a little rabbit and hid behind the stone to barbecue, when the fragrance of the roast rabbit came out, Wu Hao, who had been dormant in the snow pit for a long time, sniffed his nose and crawled out, looking for the fragrance all the way to him.

"Aren't you supposed to climb in a snowdrift?" Chu Yunchuan glanced at him.

"As a qualified military officer, I feel that I should always stand in the same trench with the deputy commander at this critical time, so as to grasp the enemy's situation at the very moment. Wu Hao patted the snowflakes off his body, rubbed his frozen red palms and sat down by the fire, and said: "As a qualified military staff, I also want to remind the deputy marshal that burning the fire will expose the target." ”

"I think you're enjoying it right now. ”

Chu Yunchuan casually glanced at his movements of rubbing his hands on the flames, and smiled indifferently. Seeing that the rabbit was almost roasted, and the fragrance was overflowing, Chu Yunchuan picked it up and put it in front of his nose and sniffed it beautifully for a moment or two, and then tore off a piece of meat very gently, chewing it slowly.

Wu Hao looked at his eating appearance with blank eyes, waiting, waiting, waiting, but he never saw the other party express the attitude of "happiness and sharing", and couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva and reminded: "Such a big rabbit, can you finish eating?"

"It's not big, you can eat it all. Chu Yunchuan said, still without an attitude to share with him.

Wu Hao couldn't help but scold: "What a stingy ghost. He licked his chapped lips and said depressedly, "Actually...... What I mean by this is that if you eat too much, you will be uncomfortably swollen, which will cause the pressure in your stomach to pull the nerves in your brain, distract one's attention, and eventually lead to mental disorders, which can be as low as you lie down by yourself, or at worst with our whole army. At this life-and-death juncture, as a qualified soldier, I think it is necessary for me to share a little pressure for you, don't you think?"

"Makes sense. Chu Yunchuan raised his eyebrows slightly, tore off a rabbit leg and gave it to him, and asked curiously, "You are so interesting." There must be a lot of women who like you, right?

"Before I came to the Celestial Pivot Star, my wife and children all died, dying in the disaster of the Doomsday Virus. Wu Hao bit the rabbit meat and mentioned the past, there was not much sadness on his face, more of a nostalgia. He smiled lightly, and continued: "At the beginning, nine out of ten people who signed up for the pioneer army were the same as me, four words - the family is ruined. Fortunately. We have lived up to the expectations of our homeland. The ultimate mission has been completed, so that more families can get out of the apocalyptic disaster area. ”

Chu Yunchuan smiled knowingly and did not answer.

So the two men sat around the fire, and each ate his own food. Clam up. Unconsciously. The sky was already slightly brighter. At this time, the sound of a fork in the distance also pierced the air and penetrated Chu Yunchuan's alert ears. Chu Yunchuan spit out the mana with one palm, instantly extinguishing the fire.

Wu Hao, who was secretly surprised, looked at him and wondered, "Coming?"

Chu Yunchuan nodded, got up and said, "Pass the order, all arms fight!" He quickly ran towards the northern exit of the pine forest, Wu Hao, who stayed in place, put his hands to his mouth, and whined three times in the voice of the snow wolf, and then, there was silence in the forest.

However, the silence did not last long before the earth began to tremble, and the chaotic sound of horses' hooves approached.

Half a mile away.

More than 1,000 dragon troops were flying at low altitude, retreating all the way to the pine forest, not far behind them, a Bai family army riding an ice-winged horse was in hot pursuit, there were tens of thousands of people, and the army on the ground was more spectacular than the sky, with cavalry in front and infantry behind, and the mighty team could not be seen at a glance.

Bursts of arrows rained back into the sky, forcing the Dragon Army into danger.

Just as he was about to enter the airspace of the cedar forest, the fifth wave of arrows broke through the sky intensively, and a young dragon knight fell along with the dragon under the kuà, and fell to the ground with a "boom".

Before and after, in just a moment's effort, the pursuers entered the pine forest.

It was also at this moment that a strange wind arose in the pine forest, and the fog was rampant, and in the center of the pine forest, a blood-covered soul refining pillar plunged straight into the sky, poking out a huge whirlpool in the belly of the firmament, with the whirlpool as the center, the dark clouds quickly spread around, like a big net, tightly shrouded the entire cedar forest, and even the air became a lot cooler.

"It's not good! There is an ambush, withdraw! Hurry up!"

The leader of the chasing soldiers was Wuwei, and the moment the mist floated out, he smelled the breath of the soul. But it was too late, and after retreating for a while, he realized that no matter how he ran, he was always within the range of the cedar forest, and he couldn't get out at all, and there was always a flag in front of him to lock the periphery.

In a moment of astonishment, he suddenly realized that this might be the legendary Seventy-Two Earth Demon Refining Soul Array.

From beginning to end, Wu Wei didn't plan to confront Chu Yunchuan head-on, he originally expected that the Yanhuang army, which had suffered many defeats, would definitely set up camp and set traps in Baiyin Valley, because it was easy to defend and difficult to attack. In the previous plan, if he had chased to the Silver Valley and had not exhausted the dragoon camp, he would withdraw his army and return to the city, but Wuwei never expected that Chu Yunchuan would dig a pit in front of his house.

The Shenju Battalion plus the Infantry Battalion, 50,000 Bai Family troops up and down, were all trapped in the seventy-two Earth Soul Refining Array, which made several adjutants anxious. An adjutant riding an icewing horse galloped to Wuwei and said hurriedly: "General, there is no way to go to the sky and no way to go to the ground right now, what should I do?"

"If you come here, you will be safe!" Wuwei glanced around vigilantly, and finally, he waved his long sword and said calmly: "Pass the order, the whole army should not be scattered, and all forces will be gathered together! Martial souls are not immortal souls! As long as they are killed, the big array will be self-defeating!"

"Yes!"

The calmness of Wuwei alleviated the fear in the soldier's heart to a certain extent, but the power of the martial soul deeply shook his nerves in the next bloody battle.

When the thirty-six black spirit flags around the inner circle of the large array took off their coats of ice and snow and changed back to their original appearance, they hunted and displayed in the yin wind. In an instant, the fog was heavier, the qi was more yin, and the martial soul that flew out of the soul refining pillar in the center launched a bloody slaughter against the Bai family army like a fearless dead soldier.

The 50,000-strong army, which was originally condensed together, was quickly dispersed.

The sound of the clashing of blades was edited into the most intense and tragic battle song in heaven and earth, setting off bloody scenes one after another. Every scream was the silence of a wisp of military spirit, and the originally pale earth was quickly dyed mottled. But. The Bai family army led by Wu Wei was fearless, just like the roar of a seriously wounded soldier when he rushed towards the martial soul in front: "The Bai family army will never say die!" Although, in the next second, he was split in half by the sword of the thoughtless martial spirit.

"Retreat! all retreat to the periphery!" Wuwei swept his sword, slashing the two martial spirits who came to attack, and then sacrificed the Ten Thousand Beasts Ding to the soldiers who were hedged in front of him and shouted: "Let the alien beasts fight the vanguard, and everyone retreats to the second line!" The soldiers retreated one after another, but there were still some who could not retreat and died under the sword of the martial spirit.

It wasn't until the wall of the tripod was shining and tens of thousands of strange beasts flew out of the tripod that the soldiers had a chance to breathe.

This war lasted until this moment. How many people and how many martial spirits died. The list goes on. And from beginning to end, the Yanhuang Army lurking around has not shown up.

Behind the fog-locked large array, Chu Yunchuan, who was riding a six-winged mecha beast, was standing on a huge rock, watching the battle situation in front of him with full attention. He had to admit it. The Ten Thousand Beasts Ding really turned the tide of the battle. Because the beasts in the Ding are the same as the martial spirits. They are all existences that are not afraid of death.

Seeing that there were fewer and fewer martial souls coming out of the soul refining pillar, it was estimated that they were about to die, and the power of the great array was about to be lost. There was also a look of solemnity on his face. Wu Hao, who was standing in front of the rock, glanced back and said, "Deputy Marshal, we should almost make a move, right?"

Chu Yunchuan asked, "How many remnants of the Bai family's army are there in the battle?"

"The whole army is about 50,000 people, and more than half of them are killed or wounded. Wu Hao said confidently: "If you continue to fight like this, when the martial soul dies, the beast soul will almost be wiped out." The remaining two armies have a hard fight, and our army, which is recuperating and recharging, has an absolute advantage. ”

"It's all crawling in the snowdrift, it's good if you don't freeze into popsicles, where do you get to recuperate?" Chu Yunchuan cautiously ordered: "Continue to wait until the Bai Family's energy is exhausted!"

Wu Hao's thick eyebrows raised lightly, and he didn't speak again.

Half an hour later, when the last beast soul was killed by a martial soul wearing a black power suit, the ten thousand beast tripods in Wuwei's hands no longer pounced out. At the same time, the soul refining pillar in the center of the large array also did not have a martial soul to rush out, although the tens of thousands of soldiers who died in the formation would all be refined into martial souls, but soul refining required a process, and it would definitely not come in handy in this battle.

There is one last martial soul left - the swordsman in black!

Facing the black-clothed sword shadow that flew in, Wuwei shouted: "Kill him for me!" Several soldiers next to him caught left and right, blocking Wuwei in front of the sword and killing the soul. At the same time, Wu Wei flew up, volleyed more than a dozen swords in the air, and a cold sword light of Dawson slashed through the air, all slashing on the soul refining pillar in the center.

Because he knew the evil of this array, Wuwei had to destroy it completely, and he couldn't let his dead brothers become martial spirits!

At this time, the soul refining pillar, because the soul pillar did not have the blessing of the power of the martial soul, was fragile, and with a few cracks of "boom", the towering soul refining pillar collapsed into ashes. The big array was broken, and the surrounding clouds and mist dispersed, and it was also at this time that Wuwei saw a terrifying scene and a heartache.

Not far ahead, Master Chu Yunchuan was staring at this side.

Seeing this, Chu Yunchuan was waving his hand and ordering: "The dragoon battalion is the vanguard, the Suxiu battalion is the main force, and the F19 is surrounded on the periphery!

The Yanhuang soldiers who were originally lurking in the snow pits and tree trunks all pounced out at this time.

The Bai family's army, which was dead and wounded, gradually moved closer to Wuwei, and Wuwei's eyes were always staring at Chu Yunchuan not far in front, entangled in pain. Until more than a thousand dragon knights flew in the sky, he decisively ordered the deputy generals around him: "The Divine Arrow Battalion will follow me behind, Ximu! You take the rest of the troops to set up a long dragon formation and break out of the encirclement!"

"General!" Xi Mu knelt down on one knee and said resolutely: "The last general is willing to lead the troops to the back, please retreat quickly!"

"Evacuate!"

Wuwei didn't have time to talk to him, seeing that the two dragon knights riding the winged dragon had already killed the sky overhead, the winged dragon spewed out two huge fireballs and attacked the Bai family army, Wuwei flew up with the Ten Thousand Beasts Ding, urging the refining power of the Ten Thousand Beasts Ding, swallowing the two fireballs, almost at the same time, the leading Divine Arrow Battalion also drew bows and arrows, and launched the first round of arrow rain against the Dragon Army in the sky.

The experienced Ximu knew that time was life, and seeing that he couldn't change his decision to do nothing, he gritted his teeth, hurriedly flew on his horse, and turned around on his icewing horse and shouted: "Brothers, form a spear and rush out of the encirclement with me!"

The Bai family army was quickly divided into two groups, one group was a group of 1,000 people, followed by Wuwei to block the dragon knights with unrivaled combat effectiveness, and the other group was more than 10,000 remnants, who followed Ximu to turn around and break through.

The Yan and Huang army formed a siege of the city, the inner encirclement is the camp of Suxiu, and it is also the main force to destroy the enemy, and the periphery is the F19 infantry battalion, although it is only defended and not attacked, but the F19 with a range of more than 1,000 meters can not be underestimated.

With the Divine Arrow Battalion after the inaction, although the strength is not weak, it is impossible to snipe all the dragon knights. Not every arrow shot by an archer can detonate a powerful destructive force, and most people's arrows, even if they hit the dragon's body, are difficult to cause substantial damage.

At this time, the Yan and Huang Army had already suppressed everything from the momentum.

Seeing those broken ice-winged horses trembling and wailing in front of the dragon, the brothers fell into the air one by one, Wuwei soared from the back of the horse, risking his life to kill an oncoming dragon knight, the long sword in his hand was in the air, and he simply cut off the dragon knight off the dragon's back, snatched the golden five-clawed dragon as a mount, and killed the Quartet in anger.

This brutal and bloody battle lasted until dusk.

In the end, although the Bai family army broke through the siege, the casualties were so heavy that it was unprecedented, so much so that after Wuwei, who was seriously injured, fled back to Neckmouth City, he did not speak for several days, and even forbade anyone to mention the word "Chu Yunchuan" in front of him......
