Chapter 22: The Bloody War

At night, the moonlight is like water, and the cold moonlight is sprinkled in the mountains and forests, with a sense of solemnity.

Several layers of defense have been established in the three cottages, and Song Guodong and Kang Yong stood on the tower of the main gate of the cottage, looking at the dense forest in the distance with a solemn face. Outside the cottage, a group of subordinates have already taken their places, guarding the defense line one by one.

"Big brother, something is not quite right this time. Kang Yong analyzed: "Let's not say that the time of this beast tide is not right, and the route is very different from usual, I looked at the news reported by the spies, and found that they went too straight, and there was almost no rest along the way, and they did not attack everywhere as usual, as if they had a clear goal." ”

Song Guodong nodded, "I think so too, but we can't touch the core of the beast tide, and we don't know what we think about them." In any case, the first goal now is to keep it first, and then talk about the rest. ”

Kang Yong nodded solemnly, although he said so, but if he wanted to keep it, how could it be so simple.

Suddenly, Song Guodong grabbed the spear standing aside, looked at the dense forest in the distance, and said with a solemn face: "It's here." ”

As soon as the words fell, a deafening roar was heard in the distance, followed by dense birds and spirit animals in the sky and dust flying on the ground.

"Everyone, get ready to fight! Behind the line is our home, and inside is our family. We have no way to retreat from this battle, please join me in the bloody battle!"

Song Guodong's shout ignited the fighting spirit of the entire cottage, and everyone shouted in unison: "Fight!"

Song Guodong looked around with satisfaction, and said with a proud smile: "With this determination, why not be afraid of this spirit beast." ”

After a stick of incense, the spirit beast on the ground finally rushed out of the dense forest, revealing its figure.

Song Guodong and Kang Yong glanced at each other, their eyes were full of solemnity, mixed with a hint of panic.

Kang Yong pointed to the group of spirit beasts outside, and couldn't help but stutter a little when he spoke, "How is it possible? Are they really a group of spirit beasts?"

I saw that the front of the beast tide is a jade-armored rhinoceros, and behind it is a tusked wild boar, both of which are famous for their rough skin and thick flesh, and their strong frontal charging ability; But judging from the previous lineup alone, Song Guodong and Kang Yong couldn't help but be frightened, this was by no means an ordinary beast tide, but seemed to be a group of organized and disciplined soldiers who knew how to arrange troops.

"Big brother, what should I do?" Kang Yong was a little flustered.

Song Guodong smiled bitterly, "What else can I do? ”

With that, he had already grabbed his spear and jumped to the front of the position.

"Roar!"

A huge roar came from the dense forest, and the spirit beasts seemed to have received the order to attack, and launched a collective charge. The spirit beasts in the air screamed twice, and they also attacked from above.

"Archer, prepare. ”

Seeing that most of the birds and spirit beasts had already entered the attack range, Yasunaga shouted, "Shoot!"

The archers instantly released their bowstrings, and the dense bows and arrows immediately flew into the sky and attacked the spirit beasts in the air.

"Wow!"

A sudden chirp came from the direction of the dense forest, and I saw a huge eagle flying into the sky, and all the arrows were blocked with its wings waving. It circled, its dark golden eyes staring at the archers in the cottage, as if to warn them not to overwhelm themselves.

"It's... A kamikaze eagle in the realm of gathering qi. Yasuyong felt despair, and then he turned into madness. "Shoot, shoot me! Don't let them affect the brothers on the ground. ”

"Yes. ”

Rounds of arrows flew into the sky at Yasunaga's command, but they were all blocked by the giant kamikaze eagle.

On the ground, the situation on Song Guodong's side is also very unfavorable. The flesh of the jade-armored rhinoceros and the tusked wild boar is too thick, and people with low cultivation can't hurt them at all, but they can kill in the defense line, and even if they can't kill them, the spirit beasts such as the golden lion and the golden tiger that follow closely behind will end their lives in three or two moves.

With the cooperation of these spirit beasts, it only took half a cup of tea for the first line of defense of the three cottages to be broken.

Song Guodong stabbed a rushing golden tiger to death with one shot, and shouted loudly to his subordinates behind: "Quickly retreat, go to the second line of defense." ”

After killing a giant clawed monkey who secretly wanted to sneak attack again, Song Guodong looked around the battlefield, most of his subordinates had already entered the second line of defense, and the remaining few who had not retreated had been surrounded by spirit beasts, and they had no chance of survival.

Song Guodong closed his eyes tightly, and also jumped into the second line of defense, shouting: "Ignition." ”

Hearing the order, the men who had been preparing on the side for a long time lit the fire oil and wood that had been placed in front of the defense line long ago. With the help of the fire oil, the fire quickly burned, and a wall of fire was built in front of the defense line, and at this time, the spirit beasts that were originally charging also stopped, looking at the humans in the defense line with fierce eyes.

It was only then that Song Guodong breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brothers, set up the line of defense, I believe we can hold it. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Song Guodong hurriedly stabilized the morale of the army, so as not to mess up his position.

As soon as Song Guodong finished speaking, the situation changed, the group of spirit beasts separated from the middle, and the ice pythons slowly crawled out. Climbing under the wall of fire, the ice pythons let out a breath, and the extreme ice aura was injected into the wall of fire, the fire in the tunnel was just an ordinary flame, where was the opponent of the aura, under the exhalation of the ice pythons, the fire slowly weakened.

"Yasunaga, call the archers for support. Song Guodong shouted and turned around, only to find that the archers he had high hopes for had already been entangled by a huge kamikaze eagle in the sky.

Song Guodong turned his head with a calm face, and said in a heavy tone: "Brothers, prepare for a bloody battle." ”

Hearing this, the surrounding subordinates clenched their weapons one after another and waited for them.

Soon, under the breath of many ice pythons, the fire wall carefully arranged by the three cottages was extinguished little by little, leaving only sporadic firelight flickering in the dark night.

The spirit beasts let out heavy breathing sounds, ready to charge. The people of the three cottages also stood up one by one, clenched their respective weapons, and looked at the group of spirit beasts not far away as if they were dead. By now, there is no strategy to speak of, and all that remains is a fight of flesh and blood.

"Roar!"

The same roar sounded again, and Song Guodong rushed out first, he knew that this was the order of the leader of the spirit beast to attack.

Sure enough, the spirit beasts went berserk one after another and launched an attack on the three cottages. The two sides rushed together, and blood flew everywhere, both spirit beasts and humans.

However, the first to determine the winner was not the battle on the ground, but the spirit birds in the sky. The kamikaze eagle, which was originally in a defensive state, suddenly changed its state after hearing the roar just now, and after chirping, it took the spirit bird behind it and swooped down towards the archers of the three cottages.

"Hide, hide. Kangyong shouted.

But it seemed to be a little late, and the kamikaze eagle slammed down, and the wind brought up by its wings made it impossible for the archers below to stand still, and even the first two rows were blown away. The spirit birds behind them took advantage of the situation and attacked, so that the archers were crushed.

Kang Yong sat on the ground in a daze, and even threw aside his long sword, which he usually regarded as a treasure. Looking at the brothers who were being slaughtered, Yasuyong couldn't help but shed tears and muttered, "It's over, it's all over." ”

"Yasuyong, what are you doing? Stand up for me. ”

Song Guodong, who was in the distance, saw Kang Yong's decadent appearance and immediately shouted.

Kang Yong smiled, "Big brother, give up, this time, we can't hold it." ”

"Bastard," Song Guodong couldn't help but scold, "If you can't keep it, you have to keep it, this is where we grew up, it's our home, we haven't died yet, we have to keep it to the death, have you forgotten Uncle Wang's words?"

Kang Yong muttered, "Uncle Wang." He remembered one afternoon many years ago, when he and Song Guodong were still teenagers, Wang Zhong took them here and established the Three Cottages, and that day was the day when the Three Cottages were completed.

That day, looking at the big words "Sanshanzhai" at the door, he asked: "Uncle Wang, will this be our home in the future?" Wang Chong smiled and said with some pride: "Yes, this will be our home in the future, you have to protect it with your lives, remember?" Kang Yong and Song Guodong nodded hurriedly and said seriously: "Remember." ”

Thinking of this, Kang Yong's face changed, he picked up the long sword beside him and stood up, shouting: "Big brother, I remembered, I will guard with you." As he spoke, he ran to Song Guodong's side and fought side by side with Song Guodong.

Song Guodong laughed and said: "How many years, how many years have our brothers not fought together, today, let's kill happily." ”

"Good. ”

Song Guodong and Kang Yong joined forces, and this battlefield immediately became no suspense, and one spirit beast after another fell, clearing a vacuum. But after all, there were only two of them, and soon, they were surrounded by spirit beasts again.

Two hours later, the roars and weapons around them gradually became quieter, but the spirit beasts surrounding Kang Yong and Song Guodong increased.

Kang Yong and Song Guodong were back to back, vigilant against the attack of the spirit beast.

Kang Yong asked, "Big brother, how many more people do we have?"

Song Guodong smiled bitterly: "Except for the old and weak women and children in the cottage, there are only two of us." ”

Although he had already guessed the result, but when he really heard Song Guodong say it, Kang Yong still felt a little sad, "I didn't expect that the three cottages that Wang Boxin worked so hard to build would be defeated in our hands." ”

Song Guodong also laughed miserably, then clenched his spear and said: "It's useless to say this, before the battle began, I had already instructed Lin'er that once the situation was unfavorable to us, we would immediately leave with the old and weak women and children in the cottage, and now I believe that they have left the cottage, what we have to do is to delay them as much time as possible." ”

"So what are you waiting for?

Yasuyong shouted and was about to attack. At this moment, the surrounding spirit beasts suddenly retreated to a distance of twenty zhang and made way for a road.
