[463] Seeking talents
The battle was fought with no more than a hot tea, and the Xiazhou National Army had already suffered heavy casualties, and was also frightened by the artillery of the Jiuyou National Army, but he also saw his companions die under the artillery fire and his eyes were red, and his eyes were suddenly red.
Knowing that they would die, knowing that the infantry was completely restrained by the cavalry, coupled with the cover of guns, the cavalry of the Nine Shadows Kingdom was like a bamboo, but the ghost soldiers of the Xiazhou Kingdom still rushed towards the cavalry of the Nine Shadows Kingdom without hesitation.
These ghost soldiers of the Xiazhou Kingdom thought the same as their commander, they all wanted to take advantage of the number and drown the cavalry of the Nine Shadows Kingdom.
Unexpectedly, after several charges, while the casualties were even more serious, there were really dozens of horses surrounded by the ghost soldiers of the Xiazhou State armed with hook guns. More than a dozen sharp hook spears that shimmered with cold and cold light under the rising sun were around the cavalry, stabbing at the rider and mount at the same time.
Even if the riders of the Nine Shadows Kingdom have three heads and six arms, they can't guard against the hook guns that are pouring in from all directions. What's more, the riders of the Nine Shadows Country were not three-headed and six-armed, they had just risen up to resist, and they were stabbed by the ghost soldiers of the Xiazhou Kingdom with hook guns.
The hammer in Zhu Hai's hand smashed heavily on the head of a Xiazhou soldier with a thunderous force, and immediately opened the ghost's head.
When the blood was mixed with * splashing, Zhu Hai suddenly looked back, and saw that several of his cavalry were surrounded by the Xiazhou National Ghost Corps.
Looking around again, he saw that many of his cavalry were surrounded by infantry and it was difficult to get out, so Zhu Hai turned the beast's head and killed his subordinates.
While the hammer continued to swing violently, Zhu Hai shouted loudly: "Gather, gather!"
His shout, his soldiers all heard it, but the ghost soldiers of Xiazhou State were not deaf, and immediately shouted: "Don't let them gather!" At the same time, with the guns fired from Longju Mountain, they continued to surround and intercept Zhu Hai and his cavalry.
Ji Yan on the mountain looked at Zhu Hai and his cavalry under the mountain, like a light boat in the stormy sea, surrounded by the ghost soldiers of Xiazhou State, and he was also anxious, and hurriedly said to the deputy general beside him: "What about the infantry team you organized?" As he spoke, he pulled out the long knife at his waist.
He could continue the artillery bombardment on the hill, and the soldiers would not go out of the dock fort tower to meet the enemy, and he would not cross the trench in front of the mountain;
Zhu Hai and his men under the mountain are fighting bravely against the enemy, and the mounts' robes and armor are all blood-red. At this time, if he sits idly by and ignores it, it will really be worse than a beast.
"They are already on standby in the dock fort at the foot of the mountain, and they can kill them out of the dock fort when the battalion commander gives an order. The lieutenant was also anxious to speak.
"Send troops immediately, send troops!" Ji Yan strode down the mountain, and at the same time said to the lieutenant general who followed him, "The command of the mountain is handed over to you." ”。
The battle at the foot of the mountain was even more intense, and when Zhu Hai gathered his men, there were only about 300 cavalry left of his 500 cavalry.
They rushed left and right for a long time under the heavy siege of the enemy, but they could not break out of the encirclement. Just when he was also feeling anxious, Ji Yan led two general banner soldiers and horses, set up twenty-four mandarin duck formations, and killed them from the mountain.
When Zhu Hai was overjoyed, his killing intent became heavier, and the hammer in his hand waved like the wind, smashing towards the several Xiazhou ghost soldiers who surrounded him.
In the blood splash, the defenders on the mountain continued to bombard, but they were all fought by the Xiazhou national army in the distance, and they did not dare to fire artillery around the Jiuyou national army that killed them in Zhuhai and rushed into the enemy formation.
Even so, it still broke the encirclement of the Xiazhou National Army.
At the same time, Ji Yan had already entered the enemy formation with the soldiers and horses of the two general flags, and he was invincible all the way.
The Mandarin Duck Array of the Nine Shadows Country is easy to move, with both long and short and both offensive and defensive, even if the ghost soldiers of the Xiazhou Kingdom want to hinder and intercept it all the way, they still end up in a different place in front of this formation.
In particular, the iron boring palladium in the hands of those palladium players in the formation is only seven or eight feet long, but the rocket is placed in the recess at the top, and after igniting, the rocket rushes straight into the enemy formation, and then explodes, which catches the ghost soldiers of the Xiazhou Kingdom by surprise, and they are afraid to avoid the infantry of these Nine Shadow Kingdoms.
In less than a moment, Ji Yan led his troops to Zhu Hai's side. After Zhu Hai smashed another enemy soldier to death with a hammer, he cast a grateful look at Ji Yan, but asked knowingly in a deep voice: "Why did you come down the mountain?"
"If I don't come again, you're going to die! If you die, the lord will have to give your family a pension, and I'm saving money for the lord." Ji Yan, who was poor-mouthed, shook the long knife in his hand vigorously, the blade flickered, and the blood splashed in front of him, and the ghost head of the ghost soldier of the Xiazhou State who rushed towards him was shot high in the knife light, leaving a headless body with only a bloody neck, standing in front of him.
Zhu Hai laughed wildly, and shouted to Ji Yan while fighting bravely to kill the enemy: "Don't regret that you want to die." ”。
"The moment Lao Tzu came down from the mountain, he never regretted it. Ji Yan also laughed, waved the long knife in his hand from bottom to top, and unloaded the knife-wielding right arm of another Xiazhou National ghost soldier who was holding a big knife in front of him with a big knife.
While the ghost soldier of the Xiazhou Kingdom was in pain, he staggered backwards, and collided with the knives and guns of his companions behind him, and ended up in a mess.
When the battle between the two sides was fierce, a few sharp eagle chirps suddenly came from the air on the side of Longju Mountain.
Many soldiers were stunned when they heard this, and they raised their eyes one after another to look in the direction of Longju Mountain. I saw a huge Hundred Illusion Butterfly floating above Longju Mountain, and riding on it was a beautiful and dignified Sanmiao female ghost;
Behind the woman were dozens of feathered people and dozens of scumbags, all armed and carrying baskets. And it was followed by two hundred Nine Shadow Kingdom Sky Riders riding Tiger Eagle Beast Souls.
Lin Cong pieced together, and the temporary reinforcements arrived in time.
This is also Lin Cong's ability, there is a shortage of soldiers in various places, but he can still squeeze out the remaining soldiers.
Seeing this, the soldiers of the Nine Shadows Kingdom were immediately in high spirits, and when they were cheering, Rau had already led the air cavalry and the flying army to the top of the ghost soldiers of the Xiazhou Kingdom.
The people of the head and the feathers circled and emptied, pulled the sky-shattering thunder fuse taken out of the basket they were carrying, and threw it towards the place where the ghost soldiers of the Xiazhou State were gathered below without hesitation.
Dust and flesh flew from the explosion, and the airriders swooped down from the sky. Taking advantage of the firearms thrown by the Flying Army, the ghost soldiers of Xiazhou were blown up and fled, screaming endlessly and having no time to fight back, they put the beast soul on the artillery, or the fire dragon came out of the water to aim at the enemy army.
The artillery roared continuously, and more than 100 firebombs carried dozens of fire dragons that went vertically and horizontally out of the water, rushing into the army of Xiazhou Guozhong like thunder, and a deafening roar followed.
The enemy troops who surrounded Zhu Hai and Ji Yan were all in a hurry, and when they looked back, they saw thick smoke billowing from the Chinese army, and the flames were surging in the sky, and countless soldiers did not die in the explosion, but also as the comrades who were blown into a pile of minced meat were shaken by the air wave and tossed high.
At the same time, seeing the continuous casualties of the surrounding army, Yudu, who finally recognized the reality, had to let his subordinates knock on the cymbal.
The ghost soldiers of the Xiazhou Kingdom, who were already afraid of the Jiuyou National Army, heard the sound of the cymbals, and like a ghost in the water grasping a life-saving straw, he turned around, spread his legs and fled immediately.
Zhu Hai and Ji Yan, as well as the Hundred Illusion Butterfly in the air, hovering Rau are all experienced ghosts, although they know the truth of the poor Kou Mo chasing, but this Xiazhou National Army is not a poor Kou, they are just a rout who has no intention of fighting and fleeing in the wilderness, and they have no power to fight back, how can the three ghosts miss this opportunity to kill.
So the three ghosts each gathered their own troops and chased after the enemy troops who retreated towards the border......
"No need to be polite, we are all acquaintances, you don't dare to say this in the court, but I know in private, and I treat you all as my buddies and brothers. Xiao Shizhu looked around with a faint smile at the long cliff in front of him who bent down in unison and saluted with fists, Qin Yuan and the ghost captive, and said slowly: "Since it is a buddy brother, then there is no need to be so polite." ”。
He was in the city of Lent, and after a round with the gods, he went straight to Luofu Mountain in Luofu County under the escort of the forbidden army.
Now this shrine stopped outside the west of the city, three miles away from the edge of the fire forest, and did not enter the city as always. It's just that unlike in the past, this time he recruited all the ghost officials of the Nine Shadows Kingdom stationed here out of the city.
"Sit and sit, show you all the seats, let you sit and talk. Xiao Shizhu smiled unabated, waved his hand and motioned for Qin Yuan and them to sit down.
"There is a word in the world called the feudal officials, which is the official who is responsible for the military and political affairs of the large region and has the heaviest authority; Over the past year or so, all parts of Nanban have been reasonably rectified by you, and the people are also living and working in peace and contentment, and all walks of life are thriving. Xiao Shizhu stood up as he spoke, clasped his fists at Qin Yuan and said, "I thank the three adults for the ghost clans and ghosts of the various tribes of the Southern Barbarians." ”。
Qin Yuan's ghosts and ghosts suddenly became frightened, and as soon as they sat down, they were busy lifting their buttocks, and hurriedly waved their hands and shouted urgently: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be." ”。
"Yes, you deserve it. Xiao Shizhu waved his hand again and motioned for them to sit down.
"But Lord Oni, you'll have to go back to the capital right away. Immediately afterwards, the ghost mother who was sitting next to Xiao Shizhu took over and said.
The ghost was stunned for a moment, and a look of surprise immediately appeared in his eyes, and after he stopped talking for a while, he asked a little hesitantly: "Is there something wrong with the minister?"
"Don't be nervous. Xiao Shizhu smiled, lifted his teapot and said to the ghost: "I received a post from Changqin (post from the underworld), saying that he will marry your daughter next month, but you said that the military affairs are busy and it is inconvenient to go back, how can this work; ”。
"How can my son-in-law tell you all this little thing. After complaining in a deep voice, the ghost captives smiled awkwardly: "Let the lord see it laugh." ”。
"Human nature, there is nothing funny. Xiao Shizhu, who took a sip of tea, instinctively cocked Erlang's legs, and he didn't have the indescribable appearance of a lord at all, but was full of ruffianism, and then said: "I also told the lord of Yuque Weng that on the day of your daughter's wedding, he will go to watch the ceremony for me." ”。
"My lord, the humble house must be full of brilliance. The ghost's voice trembled as he spoke excitedly. Qin Yuan and Changya also hurriedly congratulated the ghosts.
The maids arrived with tea, and the ghost captives and Changya took the teacup and drank it, but Qin Yuan did not have a teacup, but served him a plate of his favorite live grasshopper.
"This time I deliberately came to this Luofu Mountain, in addition to coming to see you, there is one more thing to do. Xiao Shizhu put down the teapot and said slowly: "That's to seek talent." ”。
"Asking for money?" Qin Yuan and the others all heard wrong, and after looking at each other for a while, they all looked at Xiao Shizhu with suspicious eyes, and asked in unison: "What kind of wealth are you asking?"
