Chapter 415: The Sand of War (1)
Late at night on the seventh day of the seventh month of the fifth year of Renhua, the rain that had been brewing all day finally dripped down.
Large drops of rainwater fall to the ground, and then evaporate by the hot gas of the earth, forming a thick white vapor that floats above the mouth of the fire.
A thousand cavalry marched slowly and carefully along the path between the two mountains.
Raindrops fell on the cavalry's iron armor, splashing countless small splashes. The horses trampled on the small river made of rain, making a uniform and crisp noise.
Huoshakou is the only one that has no geothermal fire on this trail, although the trail is small, it is the most important traffic artery in Jianma Province.
A general in front of the team, covered in iron armor, raised a hand and signaled for the team behind to stop.
The general wiped the rain from his iron helmet and looked around with wide eyes.
There was a fog ahead, and there was nothing to be seen. On both sides, there are extremely steep mountains. Surrounded by mist, I don't know how high the mountains are and how dense the forests are.
"The order went down and told everyone to be vigilant. ”
Not only does the vicious environment have a great impact on the vision, but the divine sense cannot penetrate far. It was foggy in my mind, and even more ethereal in the distance.
Immersive, the general only realized the difficulty of the defenders of the Huoshakou Fortress. In such a situation, it is most suitable for demons, and ordinary soldiers cannot be the opponents of demons at all.
The team moved forward slowly, their purpose this time was only one, to lure out the demons.
Above the mountains, in the middle of the dense forest. A pair of dark eyes, under the cover of the rainy night and fog, flashed down the mountain path to look at it.
The eye belonged to someone, a man who was pitch black, with his back arched high, and squatting on a branch.
Every time the cavalry moved some distance, the man jumped cautiously and like a tanuki onto another tree. At the same time, there will be a slight "creaking" sound in the mouth. It's like a rat stealing food in the middle of the night, and it's like the sound of people grinding their teeth when they sleep.
The "creaking" sound is very soft, but sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and the tone can be low or high-pitched.
The sound of the rain drowned out the sound, and no one could tell the cavalry on the trail.
The rain in the mountains and forests was heavier, and it was like a waterfall rolling down above the nine heavens.
"Crunch...... Click...... Click......"
As if in response, those sounds rang out one after another in the mountains and forests.
A pair of the same eyes gradually opened, and the same figure jumped up the branch with light and dexterity.
Suddenly, all man-made voices stopped, and the cavalry stopped advancing, standing quietly in the stagnant water on the path. The people in the woods stopped blinking, and the grinding sounds stopped.
"General......
"Shhhh......h
This thousand-man cavalry team is the vanguard of the new army led by Xiang Kun. After rushing to Huoshakou Fortress with Fu Zhi, Xiang Kun led a thousand elite cavalry out of Huoshakou without stopping.
Fu Zhi couldn't wait for the demon to hit the door, and Xiang Kun couldn't wait. Because in the Huoshakou Fortress, countless people of the Jin Kingdom who dragged their families were crying. They have lost their homes and loved ones.
Xiang Kun, who was angry in his chest, but calm on the surface, brought the best forward battalion soldiers he had trained. These thousand people are Xiang Kun's treasures, and he spent a lot of spirit stones to equip each of them with armor and blades of inferior magic weapon quality. The 1,000 space rings were acquired by the Tuo Tianxian Building.
In the ring, all the necessary materials such as spirit stones, water, and food are all prepared. According to Xiang Kun's estimate, three years is enough to support everyone in three years.
"Prepare for battle!"
There is no need for Xiang Kun to give an order in person, and the heralds around him understand the general's every move. Thousands of people took out their blades at the same time.
Xiang Kun opened his eyes and slowly turned his head to look at the hillside on the side. Although he couldn't see or perceive anything, in his heart, the sense of crisis became stronger and stronger. It was a feeling that ran from the soles of the feet to the door of the head.
Sure enough. A loud beast roar sounded in the rainy night. Then, the roar of beasts was heard from all directions.
"Bring ...... up"
At the sound of the order, a thousand cavalry joined together, back to back, with their spears pointing outward and upward.
In the mountains and forests, one or two...... Countless wild dogs stretched out their long tongues and ran down the trail quickly.
"Livestock!"
Xiang Xing lifted his breath and flew up, and the Qinglong Glaive Knife slashed a lightning bolt in the rainy night.
Straight lightning cut a straight cut in the hillside, countless trees fell, and dozens of wild dogs were cut in two.
Then, Xiang Xing landed on a tree, and then flew to the hillside on the other side, the same technique, the same lightning. The bloody breath spread throughout the mouth.
As soon as Xiang Kun fell back on the horse, the sound of "creaking" came from far and near. Under the black arched backs of the trees, they jumped down like monkeys.
At the same time, the wild dogs were not frightened by Xiang Kun, and the bloody aura made them even more vicious. Drops of foul-smelling saliva spilled on the ground as they ran. The geothermal fire immediately evaporated the saliva, and the stench became thicker and thicker in the air.
"Hold your breath!" the herald commanded again.
Everyone stops breathing and switches to the method of internal breathing. Not only people, but even a thousand horses closed their breath.
The reason why these thousand people can become Xiang Kun's treasures is that war horses account for at least the majority of the factors. A thousand war horses, a thousand demon beasts. This is a gift secretly given to the eldest brother by the Northland Barbarian Queen. The second strongest war horse of the barbarian tribe is a little worse than the wolf riding arrow of the wolf army.
If it weren't for the fact that the number of wolves was too small, the barbarian queen would want to build a wolf army for the eldest brother that belonged to the Jin Kingdom.
A thousand demon horses are already extremely spiritual, and they spend a lot of spirit stones to feed them every day. They can hold their breath for an hour, run at high speed for a day and a night, and the speed is the best in the world, compared with the wolf, it is faster, but the lethality is far less than the wolf.
If one day, Xiang Kun can raise them out of the Inner Dan, that is, the Golden Pill Realm of the Terran monks, then they can transform into human forms and practice the Terran exercises.
Xiang Kun was very satisfied with the action of this thousand horses. The saliva of wild dogs is very toxic, if it breaks through the epidermis, or inhales too much poisonous gas, the mild person is weak, and the focus is on the spot death.
The wild dogs finally came down and came like a tidal wave. The soldiers of the new army guarded their positions, stabbed, picked, and thrown with great skill and eased countless wild dogs. Livestock is livestock, and where will be a well-prepared opponent of the new army.
Behind the wild dogs, the arch-backed blacks suddenly slowed down and watched the slaughter of the New Army from a distance and unhurriedly.
The saliva of wild dogs is poisonous, and the natural environment here, as long as the new army inhales enough poison gas, those arched black generals will take this team again.
It's a pity that they met the new army, a team built by the Jin State with all its might. What's even more unfortunate is that the most powerful thousand-man team in the new army is here. They are the top team in Shenzhou jointly created by Tianxian Tower, the Barbarian Queen, and the forward generals of the New Army.
"Squeak...... Giggle...... Squeak......"
"Click...... Cuckoo...... Click......"
The strange, incomprehensible voice of the person listening to it was covered in hair. Xiang Kun cut off the head of a wild dog, jumped up, jumped over the surging wild dogs, and went straight to the arched black people.
On a rainy night in the mountains, I don't know when the dawn will come, and I don't know how many dangers lurk there. There were only a thousand of them, and although their combat power was strong, Xiang Kunhe was unwilling to lose a penny.
Wild dogs are just tools for arching black people, and it doesn't mean much to kill as many as they want. The most important thing at the moment is those people behind, kill them all, and the bloody qi that gathers together is transmitted from the fiery qi of the earth into the air, and it can be smelled hundreds of miles away. If it is really a demonic chaotic world, these bloody qi can attract them over. Then...... The marshal will personally go out on horseback.
The Green Dragon Glaive Knife emitted a dazzling light in the rainy night, and with one slash, the big tree surrounded by the four people was split in two, and an arch-backed black man on the tree fell to the ground screaming.
His right foot stomped heavily on the back of the arched black man, and Qinglong borrowed the moon knife against his neck: "What person?
The arched back black man struggled desperately, raised his head, and stared at Xiang Kun fiercely with a pair of black eyes. At the same time, the mouth keeps emitting a "click...... Coo.
Xiang Kun is two meters tall, with bulging muscles all over his body, and he looks like a reckless man, but in fact, he is very thoughtful. When he and his younger brother Xiang Xing were messing around in Fang City, he mostly played the role of a black-faced reckless person, while Xiang Xing was a red-faced child. The two brothers sang and joined together, one black and one red, one strong and one thin, and they really got a lot of spirit stones and money.
From the voices of those arched black people, Xiang Xing found a situation.
There are a lot of "squeaks" sounds, and it seems that most of them make this sound.
And there are not many sounds of "click-cooing". And it's all weirdly distributed. On the two hillsides, the number of people who make this sound is average, one at every other interval.
