【1057】Cloud Cliff Stargazing

The icy wind and rain fell on the stenching and bloody position of the army of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, washing away the blood that had already soaked into the soil.

One after another, the ghost soldiers of the coalition army, with great momentum, rushed to the position of the Nine Shadows Country one after another, revealing their vicious and hideous faces, and slashed at the ghost soldiers of the Nine Shadows Country on the position.

These coalition soldiers had already discovered when they approached the position of the Nine Shadow Country, and on the position of the Nine Shadow Country, there were not many Thunderbolt and Five Thunder God Machines that could continuously strafe, and Chun Han could only arrange them around one or more positions to form a diagonal trend.

As long as they bypassed these ferocious and dense strafing fires, they could rush to the position much more smoothly.

The overwhelming coalition forces were constantly used, and the red robes of the coalition troops made them look like a fierce sea of fire, on the slopes of the mountain beaten by the wind and rain, starting from the foot of the mountain and spreading upward.

The Jiuyou National Army, which had already put on its bayonets, was not to be outdone, and they also jumped up one after another, fighting bravely.

Every ghost soldier is full of courage and belief in victory, and every ghost soldier's face is full of uncontrollable anger.

The slings that shot from the mountain before made the trenches on this half-mountainside have been full of holes, and now on these temporary digging trenches full of holes, the soldiers of the Nine Shadows Country, who fought to the death, used the Xueliang bayonets in their hands to stab the enemy's throat without hesitation, and sprinkled one after another on the position, stinking enemy ghost blood.

This straightforward and unprocrastinating way of killing has always been a characteristic of the army of the Nine Shadows Kingdom.

As early as when Xiao Shizhu was still a young general in the ghost mother country, he found that the ghost soldiers in the Netherworld Mansion had heavy armor that could protect many physical points.

The only thing exposed in front of the blade was the Adam's apple on the neck.

Therefore, from that time on, he asked the soldiers to fight with cold weapons, not to stab their hearts, and not to waste their efforts, and to directly aim at the enemy's throat with a knife.

This kind of fighting technique of killing people when they come up is the way of survival that Xiao Shizhu learned when he was on the streets in the world. This makes it very rare for the Nine Shadows Army to entangle with the enemy. Basically, in one or two rounds, there will be an ending where either the enemy dies or I die.

It also made the army of the Nine Shadows Kingdom invincible as soon as it arrived on the battlefield, without mercy before the enemy surrendered.

War is as it should be, there is no benevolence at all!

This is what Xiao Shizhu taught every ghost soldier of the Nine Shadows Country, which has continued from generation to generation, and the new recruits and veterans of the Nine Shadows Country have practiced this kind of fighting skills even more perfectly.

In the earth-shaking sound of cannons, the first batch of coalition soldiers who rushed to the position did not wield the weapons in their hands before they were held by the soldiers of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, and the chopsticks pierced their throats like tofu, and easily cut off the enemy's cervical vertebrae.

Even if the ghost doctor with the most skilled medical skills in the Netherworld Mansion came here, he would not be able to recover from the wounded soldiers of the coalition who were not dead or alive.

More and more enemy troops fell one after another, and each miserable corpse fell in the mud and pools of blood, which took away the courage and confidence of the coalition soldiers little by little.

The ghost soldiers of the Nine Shadows Kingdom were like gods of war when they accurately shot them with firearms, and today's melee combat made the ghost soldiers of the Nine Shadows Kingdom like a demon god possessed.

The bayonets in the hands of the soldiers of the Nine Shadows Kingdom did not even collide with the enemy's weapons, and they could kill with a single blow.

And even if he is a new recruit who has just entered the battlefield, he shows tenacity and bravery.

Soon, the soldiers of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, whose faces were stained with blood, still looked hideous, and they and the swords and guns in their hands made the charging enemy feel terrified and panicked.

The bravery of the army of the Nine Shadows Kingdom invisibly told all the invading enemies that it was not the number of soldiers that could determine the victory and the trend of the war. And those who commit all the lands of the Nine Shadows Country are destined to have no return.

What's even worse is that at this moment, the air cavalry and flying army ordered by Chun Han have been dispatched.

The sound of the wind roaring up the hill, followed by hordes of air cavalry and flying troops whistling past the battlefield on the hillside, rushing down the mountain without hesitation.

This will be the despair that the spring cold brings to the enemy soldiers underfoot.

On the hillside, the soldiers on both sides were still fighting bravely, and the Jiuyou National Air Cavalry and the Flying Army under the hillside had already dived and came to the sky above the enemy formation at the mouth of the valley at the foot of the mountain.

The cannons of the air cavalry began to roar, and the flying army threw pomegranate mines with open fuses at the siege equipment in the enemy's formation.

The roar rose again, the sea of fire soared, the smoke billowed out, and the siege equipment fell one after another in the flames of the rising sea of fire. One by one, the coalition soldiers were also torn apart in the explosion.

The crossbowmen in the enemy formation of the coalition army hurriedly picked up the crossbow in their hands, aimed them at the air above their heads, and fired iron arrows one after another.

The ballista, which had not yet been destroyed, also raised the crossbow machine on the car.

The sound of breaking the air sounded outside the valley mouth, and all kinds of feather arrows and crossbow arrows shot up into the sky, shooting towards the air troops of the Nine Shadows Kingdom back and forth in midair.

The air troops of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, shuttling under the wind and rain, dodged the oncoming arrow rain in an orderly manner, and could also calmly fire cannons or drop pomegranate thunder.

The charge on the hill was not successful, and the enemy positions below the hill were again attacked by air.

From the mountains up and down, there are stumps and severed arms everywhere, and they can be seen everywhere.

The sea of fire also spread unscrupulously in the midst of the enemy's ranks.

The allied forces that had already rushed up the mountain were blocked and stalled, and the batteries on the slopes of the Nine Shadows Kingdom then adjusted their guns and aimed at the halfway up the hillside, and all the enemies who continued to charge on the hillside did not hesitate to bombard indiscriminately.

The raging offensive that the coalition forces had previously organized was already showing signs of collapse. Nine out of ten of the ghost soldiers who rushed up the mountain by the coalition army had already begun to fight timidly.

At the foot of the mountain, many unlucky air troops of the Nine Shadows Kingdom were unfortunately hit by arrows. Like a kite with a broken string, it fell from the air one after another with blood and fell heavily to the ground.

The moment he landed, he was immediately surrounded by ghost soldiers of the coalition army holding Changge. In the blink of an eye, there will be several or more than a dozen Changge, stabbing at the ghost soldiers of the Nine Shadows Kingdom on the ground.

But before the surrounding enemy forces could withdraw, they found themselves underestimating the courage and courage of the army of the Nine Shadows Kingdom.

Those Nine Shadow Country Flying Heavenly Army and Air Cavalry who were hit by arrows landed would not hesitate to pull the pomegranate thunder hanging on their chests the moment before they landed.

Shortly after landing, all the soldiers of the Nine Shadows Kingdom would bring a violent explosion.

The pomegranate thunder on their bodies roared, destroying their bodies, weapons, and other explosives.

The violent explosion shook the ground and shook the mountains, and it could also take the lives of a few or a dozen coalition soldiers around them in an instant.

The explosion was filled with mud and flames, causing the other coalition forces around to panic in the aftermath of the explosion.

The muscles in the corners of his eyes twitched when he saw him on the command platform, and a frightened look surged from the bottom of his eyes, dispelling the confidence in his eyes that was full of confidence before, and quickly spread out of his eye sockets.

Since the day he was drafted into the army, he has experienced hundreds of battles large and small, and he has seen many soldiers who are not afraid of death on the battlefield, but like the ghost soldiers of the Nine Ghost Country, each of them is an iron army composed of warriors who regard death as home, and he has seen it for the first time.

The explosion continued, and the flames made the area at the north entrance of the Shengyi Valley under the wind and rain no longer so cold.

The air forces of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, after bombing again and again, returned to the top of the mountain after a quarter of an hour. By the way, the shells and pomegranate mines that had not yet been thrown were accurately dropped into the group of coalition soldiers who were still charging on the hillside.

The battle of less than half an hour came to an end with the sound of gold at the bottom of the mountain.

The coalition stormtroopers on the mountain, who were already struggling to hold on, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The desperate fighting of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, and the growing courage of the fighting force, had already crushed the courage and confidence of the coalition soldiers, bringing despair and timidity.

The sound of the rain was still echoing between heaven and earth, and the coalition soldiers on the mountain turned and headed down the mountain with the sound of gold.

They just wanted to escape from the hideous-looking ghost soldiers of the Nine Shadows Kingdom behind them as soon as possible.

And when they came, they were full of confidence and menacing. The ground beneath his feet was only muddy after the rain.

But now, less than half an hour, the rugged mountain road that turned back was unrecognizable. The craters and charred black left by the shells were scattered on the hillside, and the flames were still burning tenaciously in the wind and rain on the hillside.

Severed arms and stumps, dripping with blood, dotted on the hillside.

There were also many corpses of human souls, which were getting cold in the wind and rain, and then slowly turned into red powder, and with the flowing muddy rain, they went down the mountain.

The Nine Shadows Army did not take advantage of the victory to pursue down the mountain, but they did not forget to give the enemy a farewell gift.

All the Jiuyou troops who were still alive in the position on the hillside raised their guns and fired at the enemy troops who fled in the desert.

There were also many coalition soldiers who fell down screaming one after another on the retreating road.

It's just that their death didn't allow the anger of the Nine Ghost Army to be vented.

The corpses of the Nine Shadow Army who died in battle on the battlefield were beside him, although there were not many, but it also made the anger on the faces and hearts of every living Nine Shadow Army difficult to dissipate.

It wasn't until the last enemy managed to escape down the hill that they stopped shooting and pursuing.

The Nine Shadows Army, which silently stopped the attack, looked around at the unrecognizable positions around them, and the deceased comrades, mourning for the deceased comrades-in-arms under the wind and rain......

The day, as time went by, did not make any more decent attacks until the clouds were in the east.

The Chunhan's strong defenses terrified the enemy, and she held on to her for the time being.

And Xiao Shizhu, who was far away in Yuque City, was still carnivaling on the hunting ground.

A bonfire was blazing in the camp, illuminating the sky above the camp. The accompanying soldiers hit rocks and threw stones, and the beasts danced, bringing joy to every ghost in the camp.

Xiao Shizhu and Qingqiu Fox King have also been smiling all the time, and the two ghosts no longer pay attention to etiquette, hook their shoulders and back, and drink enough wine.

The campfire feast in the camp did not end until midnight.

The Qingqiu Fox King was so drunk that he was carried back to his tent, but Xiao Shizhu was still unsatisfied. He rode on his own jaw, and also carried the ghost mother, and galloped out of the camp.

The wind is under his feet, and he rushes forward. A dozen guards also hurriedly mounted their mounts and followed. After a while, they came to a cliff far away from the camp, on a cliff with many maze trees growing in the middle of the mountain.

In the darkness of the night, it emits a soft white light. Illuminated the cliffs, those mica stones that broke through the ground and were dotted around.

Under the soft light, the mica stone exudes a brilliant pearl luster.

This lonely mountain cliff standing on the flat grassland is the famous cloud cliff on the Yuque hunting ground.

Cloud Cliff is surrounded by open plains, with no hills or mountains, as far as the eye can see.

On the cloud cliff, a faint mist had already floated in the forest at this time, and Xiao Shizhu drove the beast to gallop, carrying the ghost mother all the way to the top of the cliff in the hazy mist.

The few guards who came with him stopped in the distant woods and stood far away.

The black monkey who was secretly following also jumped onto a leafy misty tree not far from the top of the cliff, and was entangled in the dark shadow behind the soft light.

Xiao Shizhu, who stopped at the top of the cliff, jumped off the jaw, and after Zhang Zhi'an landed steadily, he reached out to hug the ghost mother and hugged her gently and carefully from the jair.

There was a clearing on the top of the cliff, and there was no grass growing in the clearing, but the ground was full of smooth stones from the wind and rain. Of course, there are no trees here, there is no shelter, you can see the starry sky overhead, and when you look forward, you can also see the lights of the camp in the distance.

The mountain wind blew, and the cuffs of Xiao Shizhu's robe hunted sounded, which also blew away the mist on the top of the cliff.

Xiao Shizhu walked to the edge of the cliff and sat next to the cliff, and the ghost mother also came over and sat beside him.

Both of them stretched their legs out of the cliff, and the ghost mother was in the wind, gently swinging her legs stretched out of the cliff and hanging in mid-air, and asked Xiao Shizhu curiously: "We don't sleep at night, what are we doing here?"

Xiao Shizhu took her out in a hurry, and she didn't explain what she was going to do, so the ghost mother still didn't know what Xiao Shizhu was doing here in the middle of the night if she didn't sleep?

Xiao Shizhu's body fell back slightly, his hands also clubbed the ground backwards, raised his head, and looked at the top of his head.

The stars converged in the blue sky, and the stars were a bright Milky Way, horizontal in the sky.

The beautiful galaxy is shining, and the stars are densely scattered in the night sky.

The blue night sky is mysterious and dreamy because of the embellishment of the galaxy.

"Look at the stars. Xiao Shizhu replied casually.

As soon as these words came out, the ghost mother's eyes rolled, and she asked again: "Couldn't it be that a few days ago, Qin Tianjian told you that the stars were dark and the national fortune was unknown, which made you uneasy, right?"

She can always know what Xiao Shizhu thinks in her heart. This time was no exception.

That's right, Xiao Shizhu is a little uneasy because of this. Of course, he also came here to see the stars.

In the Jade Que Palace, it is difficult to see such an open sky on the hunting ground. He Xiao Shizhu is even more busy all day long, how can he have this leisurely look up at the stars?

Anyway, I can sleep lazily tomorrow, Xiao Shizhu plans to have a good time tonight.

He then hummed, continued to look at the bright Milky Way in the night sky, and said, "You say, can you believe Qin Tianjian's words?"

The ghost mother frowned when he asked, and after thinking for a while, she also learned from Xiao Shizhu, leaned back slightly, raised her head and looked at the starry sky, and said thoughtfully: "You can't believe it all, and you can't believe it." ”。

The ghost mother's tone was a little uncertain, because she didn't know how to look at the stars, so she couldn't judge the words of the star officials.

In her eyes, like Xiao Shizhu, the starry sky she sees is bright and bright, and she doesn't know where the dim and unknown image is.

The starry sky is only bright and gorgeous in their eyes.

"It's like I didn't say anything. Xiao Shizhu sat up straight, sighed lightly, and said, "You have all seen that the ambition of the Qingqiu Fox King has been completed, and he has no intention of creating a better future with us at all." He wants Dongying Continent, or even Dongyi Continent, the eastern region of the entire Netherworld Prefecture. I had thought that our recent military operations in Dongyingzhou would deter him, but the Qingqiu Fox King was still ambitious, and his old fox had too much appetite. It is exactly like this, perhaps as the Qintian Prison Star Officials said, for a period of time in the future, the fortunes of the country are unknown. We and the Qingqiu Fox Country, this battle cannot be avoided. ”。

"You don't want to fight this battle?" the ghost mother asked slowly, still staring at the starry sky above her head.

"Every year I fight, the people will have no livelihood. If I can't fight, of course I don't want to fight. Every battle not only kills and wounds my people, but also consumes a lot of money and supplies. Xiao Shizhu sighed again and said, "Of course, I'm not afraid of war. If the enemy dares to attack, I will let them have no return. It's just that I think it's okay not to fight this battle with the Qingqiu Fox Country, but the Qingqiu Fox Country doesn't appreciate it, so I have to be beaten. ”。

The ghost mother also straightened up and stopped stargazing. But when she turned her head, she saw the worried look in Xiao Shizhu's eyes.

"I heard that the fortunes of the country are unknown, and I am afraid that this battle will not be easy. After a pause, Xiao Shizhu was also a little worried and then said: "The Qingqiu Fox Country has been cultivating in obscurity for many years, and its strength is no longer to be underestimated. I have a hunch that once the war starts, this battle will not go well. ”。
