Chapter Forty-Eight: The Battle of Kannan

August 20, the third tun

The small square of the second battalion was empty, and Yi Chi was holding the bone bow, pacing back and forth boredly.

The Yunzhou Baggage Brigade, which was temporarily stationed in the Second Battalion, was dispatched early in the morning and lined up outside the tun. People who have just met these days have things to do. Only Yi Chi is an idler.

No way, he is the only post soldier in the third tun. If it weren't for General Yan of the archery battalion, he would have been sent to the military justice department as a deserter.

In the past few days, in addition to learning archery with the men in Yunzhou, the rest of the time, he has spent all his time cultivating spiritual power.

The crystal nucleus pendant given by Amber has pure spiritual power, but it is not very lucky, and it will still feel dizzy after a long time. Yi Chi knew that this matter was urgent, and he had to recuperate for a while before the increased spiritual power could truly settle down in the sea of qi.

Therefore, he did not want to return to the first battalion of baggage when he died.

The mother and the aunts of the pulp washing team stayed in the first camp well, and Yichi, who came at risk, was relieved. But staying there and wanting to meditate and cultivate, it's basically impossible.

Not long after breakfast, most of the reinforcements from the state capitals were also taken out of the cantonment. The whole of the Third Tun fell silent.

The marshal was in charge in person, and the soldiers of the Lan Kingdom had the backbone, and the emotions that had been smashed to the bottom the day before yesterday rose again.

Everyone is looking forward to today.

Today is the day when the marshal made an appointment to fight the Thunder Emperor of the Ul Kingdom.

But he couldn't see the big scene, so he could only honestly stay in the baggage camp and look at his home.

When he slipped to the gate of the camp, he noticed that an old man with white hair appeared outside the door at some point, quietly looking into the door.

Yi Chi was stunned for a while, and gave a military salute a little awkwardly.

He knew the man. That night, when the Fangyi team escaped from the first tun and met the Haizhou soldiers, they saw what the old man had talked to Xiaoye.

Later, he followed the Haizhou soldiers into the third tun, and the master sat in the carriage of the siege camp.

Why did you come here at this time? If I remember correctly, the Haizhou soldiers should have all gone to the city wall to help defend it!

He didn't even count as a supernumerary of the Yunzhou baggage battalion, if this master had something urgent to find someone from Yunzhou, it would delay the matter.

The old man looked at the anxious Yichi, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he smiled.

"Are you Ah Ci's child?"

"Yes. ”

“...... Are you?" Yi Chi subconsciously opened his mouth in response, and felt that something was wrong.

"Hades' apprentice?"

Xiao Yi looked down at the longbow in his arms, feeling a little remorseful. Several governors of Yunzhou told him to put the bow away, but he was reluctant. Now, it is recognized by people at a glance.

There is no need for him to lie, and it is useless to lie. I can only honestly repeat it again: "Yes." Who are you?"

The white-haired old man nodded: "Work hard, you have insulted the name of the Iron Guard, be careful that he scolds you." ”

That's right. This must be their own people.

He gradually remembered that he had always seen the old man looming nearby from time to time in the past two days.

Knowing that Hades is still alive and well, and he still knows his own mother, who is this?

The old man didn't ask anymore, he gently took out an object and stuffed it into Yi Chi's hand: "You take this with you." ”

Three inches long, two fingers wide, a shiny black strip of wood.

"Thank you, Master, I can't take it. ”

"Is that what your mother taught you?" or is this temper ......?"

The old man looked at Yi Chi, who stretched out his arms and sent them back, and laughed out loud.

"Do you know what this is?" he didn't take back the stick, but stared at Ichchi narrowly.

Yi Chi really doesn't know. He is not Bai Ye, he has been familiar with that room of books and notes since he was a child. What should be known and what should not be known, my mind is stuffed.

He only knew that his mother had said: "If you don't know the benefits, you will suffer from them." ”

The old man seemed to be a little anxious, but finally sighed. He stared at Yi Chi's eyes and said solemnly: "This is an iron-core wood branch from Leizhou, which can suck up the remaining toxins in your body. ”

This time, Yi Chi was really dumbfounded. Could it be that I still have the toxin of the Iron Calyx Man-eating Flower in my body? But how did he know that?

"Well, don't tell your mother about this. It can be regarded as a heart from the deceased. Thoughts to the Iron Guard. ”

Yi Chi couldn't guess what the elder's meaningful eyes meant.

He lowered his head and rubbed the jade-like black wooden branch in his hand, and a warm stream of heat slowly flowed into his body from the tip of his palm and palm, ironing his whole body comfortably.

When he looked up again, the old man was gone.

The sound of tuk tuk from the other side of the camp gate woke Yi Chi, and he turned his head to see that it was Captain Bai of the pro-military camp, walking quickly on crutches.

"Come with me to the wall. It's a rare opportunity to watch the game. Concisely explaining the intention, the lieutenant waved his hand, turned around and left. "You don't need to bring a bone arch. ”

and Bai Lingyu could only be regarded as nodding friends, and did not say a few words. However, it can be seen that the handsome family education is very strict, and this young master respects the aunts of the pulp washing team very much, and he has no arrogance about himself, a child of Fangyi.

Yi Chi didn't expect to come to invite him, and when he was flattered and put down the longbow and chased him out, Captain Bai sped up his pace again. He followed silently.

It can be seen that this young man, who is not a few years older than him but is already a senior officer, is angry with his leg injury. I'm afraid it was because the arrow wound had not healed that he couldn't get out of the battle.

"Yesterday with my father, I saw you and Yunzhou soldiers compare bows, not bad. ”

Captain Bai muttered thoughtlessly. Yi Chi didn't know what to say, so he didn't answer.

"How long have you been studying with Uncle Hades?"

"Eleven years. ”

The lieutenant was silent for a while, and then continued to ask, "Who is older than you or Bai Ye?"

"I'm almost eighteen. Three months younger than him. ”

"Then I'm a year older than him...... You and Xiao Ye both have a lot of masters. ”

"He has more masters, but I have less. ”

"Well, that's good. I envy you. ”

After chatting for a few words, the two had nothing to say. It was only at the foot of the city wall that Captain Bai turned around and said, "Follow me, you can find a good place." ”

There were a lot of soldiers stationed on the walls. Under the leadership of Bai Lingyu, Yi Chi still successfully found the top and center position.

It was the first time he had the opportunity to climb the city walls.

Holding the pheasant and looking out. The wind was not strong in the heights, and the vast plains beyond the long wall were shrouded in mist.

A mile away, there were five large arrays lined up. The pure black military flags of the Wei Kingdom and the Lei clan were planted all over the line of each array, and the clan flags of the rest of the royal families were hidden behind them. All kinds of armor are layered on top of each other, and the aura of slaughter is awe-inspiring.

These enemies were far from all of the invasion of the Lan Kingdom, but the large battle of 50,000 soldiers still easily suppressed the momentum of the Lan Kingdom.

The military formation in the middle is obviously of a higher standard. Half of the horses had been moved away, and the brigade of dark cavalry was rushing out like mercury. The damp fog peculiar to the Kannan Plain covered the silent team, and it looked a little blurry.

Bai Lingyu muttered, "It's still a step too late, the Thunder Emperor may have already returned to the formation." ”

Standing beside them was the general of the third garrison who had crowded over to accompany them. He whispered, "Master, the big marshal has just finished agreeing with the barbarian chieftain. Two formations today. The first battle general, the second team, we are in the pro-military battalion. ”

Xiaobai grinned: "Just don't fight beasts." Anything else, whatever they are. ”

There was a burst of laughter all around.

Yi Chi secretly looked around, and the smiling ones were the third tun defenders. The Haizhou soldiers who were buried in the bed crossbow nearby, no one could laugh.

Xiao Yi felt uncomfortable all over his body. He had already seen the bloody battle flags in the back corner of the west side of the enemy line.

He inquired that the one who broke through the first tun that night was the Ye family's Flame Splitting Heavenly Army. No one who has dealt with them will laugh.

And Captain Bai is also a person who has fought head-on with the spirit beast army, but these people in the third tun have not seen that kind of scene, and they can't understand the meaning of his words at all.

Having said that, this time the Thunder Emperor drove his own expedition, and they all went to the third tun, why didn't he see a spirit beast?

Where are they hidden?

Bai Lingyu suddenly pointed to the city, "It's coming." ”

At the same time as Xiaobai stretched out his hand, in the Ye clan's army array a mile away, the commander of the thousand, Qiu Duluo, also shouted: "It's here!"

Ye Lang followed the prestige. On the opposite side, a war horse galloped out of the Lan State army, raising a burst of smoke and dust.

It was a fierce general sent by Bai Changqi.

Qiu Duluo scolded in a low voice: "Thin like this, still come alone?"

Ye Lang smiled bitterly. Just now, the Thunder Emperor ordered all battalions to fight bravely. If he hadn't stopped him, Lao Qiu would definitely be the first to rush out.

People in their forties are still so brave and ruthless.

However, this battle is of great significance to Dawei. No matter which family plays, it is impossible for his Ye family to be in the limelight.

Sure enough, it was the Su family general in a green robe who was sent here.

Ye Lang knew this person. He is the younger brother of Su Mao, the current patriarch of the Su family, and he was born with a martial and short-tempered temper. The big gun in his hand is quite sturdy.

Lao Qiu burst out laughing and glanced at the governor beside him: "Wow! Who should I be?" Isn't this the rubbish you've pouted three times?"

Ye Lang shook his head slightly.

This is a bad choice.

The Ye and Su families have been feuding for more than ten years, and there has been some friction to a greater or lesser extent. A few years ago, it was this little prince of the Su family who didn't know the height of the sky, and he recklessly knocked on the door, and he had to compete with the most powerful person in the Ye family by name.

After he shot and injured a few of the Ye family's children who were blocking him, Ye Lang had no choice but to take action and broke it with a big gun that dragged him.

In the next two years, this man did not change his dead nature and came back twice.

The results of the three rounds were exactly the same. Su Xiaowang lost three big guns in the Ye family.

Although this matter did not spread, the grudge between the Ye and Su families was still getting deeper and deeper.

At present, the Thunder Emperor is starting from the big city where he is sitting and is driving to the front line of the third tun. This guy represents the face of the Great Ulcer.

Ye Lang had a headache. The Blitzkrieg against Lan Guo was successful, but it was not as good as the impact of this kind of battle on the momentum of both sides. Don't come up and mess up.

On the opposite side of the battle was a thin and tall young man, who should be the garrison general of the third tun in his attire.

The Ye family was far away, and the war drums on both sides were beating loudly, and they couldn't hear what he and the Su family general had told each other.

Ye Lang watched the battlefield in silence. The two generals reported their names, each took their horses back for a while, and without making any adjustments, they rushed to urge their horses to rush towards each other.

It's too panicked.

The Governor shook his head secretly.

They're all inexperienced chicks. This heads-up was again carried out under the watchful eyes of their respective leaders and tens of thousands of people. Both of these people were too stressed, too nervous. The breath has not yet been evenly adjusted, and I am afraid that it will not be able to fight for a while.

The situation of the first battle was out of the direction that the governor feared. The duel ended in a breath.

The spears of the two generals pierced each other's chests almost simultaneously. The horses staggered, and the huge momentum knocked the two off their horses at once, and at the same time rolled down on the battlefield.

At the moment of fighting for their lives, none of the warriors who were determined to die flinched, but they did not show their true skills. They didn't even make the most basic dodge.

There are only two war horses left in the core of the battlefield. Their masters were pierced with spears and fell to the ground. Under the watchful eye, after all, no one got up first, and soon stopped moving.

This kind of scene is really not good-looking. The drumbeats on both sides were a little messy.

The awkward atmosphere echoed on the field for a long time. Until the two armies returned to their respective generals, the whispers in each battalion did not stop.

On the opposite side, under the third tun city, the Lan army formation took the lead in changing the drumbeat. In the solemn and solemn drum sound, a large flag rose from the riding array, and the tiger and tiger were in the wind.

In the second formation, the Lan people sent the military camp of the generalissimo of soldiers and horses under the rule of Bai Changqi.

The cavalry of the 100-pro-barracks stepped on the drums, slowly marched out of the formation, and marched to the easternmost side of the battlefield, steadily arranging the formation.

Ye Lang looked at the imposing iron flow at the end of the battlefield from a distance.

The hard-mouthed Chuduro was actually very envious of the enemy in front of him. Sixteen catties of soldier armor, twenty-nine catties of horse armor, and steel plate armor mixed with wet silver are much stronger than the nitrate leather armor of the Flame Splitting Heavenly Army.

Suddenly, a pure black war horse galloped in front of the Ye Clan's array.

He was the Herald of the Thunder Emperor.

Under the stunned gaze of the Ye general, the cavalryman raised the black daqi that symbolized the presence of the Thunder Emperor. Shouted with all his might: "Yes, Ye's Clan, the Flame Splitting Heavenly Army is going to battle!"
