Chapter 425: Ghost Cavalry
With a heavy heart, Mu Lingyu used the technique of the Void Imperial Object to leave the well with the corpses of those baby boys.
When I returned to earth, it was night.
Restless voices could be heard in the dark distance.
Su Ji turned his head to look, and the direction of the Inurong camp was blazing. He listened closely, and the sound of horses' hooves striking the ground was all over his ears. It was the chaotic hooves of a large number of cavalry, and a few torches were gradually seen in the distance, which seemed to be a group of black-armored cavalry.
Mu Lingyu frowned slightly. She knew that most of the armor of the Dog Rong generals was yellow and white, and only the Ghost Rong soldiers were all black armor. She recognized it as the ghost cavalry of the ghost army, and remembered that she had seen the strength of this cavalry with her own eyes when she was a child. Not only are they experienced in a hundred battles, but they are also proficient in the witchcraft of the ghosts, which is by no means comparable to ordinary cavalry. Although the Ghost Cavalry is small in number, it can be called the most feared elite heavy cavalry in the world.
In the night, a column of ghost cavalry rushed into the dog camp from the front. The wings spread out to the left and right of the camp in a half-crescent-shaped formation. In the blink of an eye, the Inurong camp was swallowed up by the black-pressed cavalry.
In the camp of the dog Rong, the red-eyed Samoyed wiped the blood from his face fiercely and shouted:
"Don't retreat!
The Satsuma family led a small group of elite light cavalry to rush and kill with all their might, but it was helpless that several successive breakthroughs ended in failure, but in a short moment, the fierce Ghost Rong infantry army gained the upper hand, and the dog Rong was completely oppressed.
The light cavalry of the dog Rong was crushed, and the hands of the warriors holding the swords trembled slightly.
At the last moment, the sound of the wind was suddenly heard, and all the soldiers turned their heads to look at it in unison, only to see a man and a woman coming from the wind, approaching in the direction of the camp.
"It's Kabuda!"
Samoyed was overjoyed and exclaimed, "Kabuda is back!"
The morale of the rest of the Dog Rong warriors was lifted and they shouted, "Kabuda, Kabuda, Kabuda!"
Immediately afterward, in the ears of all the soldiers, two clear and loud words were heard at the same time:
"Stop. ”
The ethereal voice came directly from his head, and the ghost general's soldiers couldn't help but retreat a few steps, not daring to approach Su Ji and Mu Lingyu.
Mu Lingyu held her luck, and in the dark night sky, many corpses of baby boys descended and slowly fell to the ground.
The restless soldiers around suddenly quieted down, and the soldiers took off their helmets and bowed their heads in silence one by one.
"Adu...... Adu!"
A young mother cried and crawled to her son's corpse, she hugged the child tightly, as if she kept holding it like this, the child could come back to life, but she desperately felt that the child's little hands were already cold, and finally couldn't help crying loudly, crying while muttering in her mouth, as if she was talking to the dead child, but Su Ji couldn't understand.
The young mother's cries drew many men and women to run to claim the body. Among those corpses were also the children of the soldiers of the Oni Rong tribe. Parents found their child's corpse with red and swollen eyes full of tears.
Samoyed found both sons dead.
Among them, when the body of the youngest son was dragged back, only half of the flesh and blood remained.
Samoyed turned his head sideways, covered his face with his sleeve, and held back tears. He wanted to cry, but he couldn't. He is the son of the Inujon King and the leader of the future clan. He knows that his tears will never be able to protect his people, and he can only take revenge if he becomes stronger!
“...... Who did it?"
With heavy steps, Samoyed walked up to Mu Lingyu and asked in a low voice, "Who killed the children?"
Mu Lingyu told the ins and outs of what happened in the well. When the angry parents heard this, they cried out like crazy:
"I want to avenge the child!"
"Dusk King, I want to eat your flesh and pick your skin!
The mournful cries of the parents echoed in the camp for a long time.
The parents who had lost their beloved son knelt in front of Su Ji and cried, "Kabuda, please help our children to avenge!"
Just as the clansmen were pleading with Su Ji, a dragon's voice came from the ghost cavalry:
"I don't believe in the Zhou man who doesn't speak Rong. ”
The one who spoke was an old man in black clothes and heavy armor, half of his face was covered with a pitch-black ghost-headed iron mask, and the old war horse under his crotch was as weathered as himself.
Mu Lingyu looked at it and recognized that this leading figure was the King of Ghost Rong, the leader of Ghost Rong.
King Guirong said: "I once believed in a Zhou person, but that person is already dead. ”
Su Ji was a little surprised, he didn't expect that this ghost leader could actually speak the language of the Zhou people.
"I don't know who the Zhou man you are talking about?" asked Su Ji.
King Ghost Rong said slowly: "At that time, Ghost Rong did not have a powerful ghost cavalry team. It was a year of famine, and my people could not fill their stomachs, let alone resist the Zhou army. At that time, I heard that all the land that the Zhou people stepped on would turn into a scorched earth. I feel that a catastrophe is about to befall the Oni Rong tribe. But I didn't expect that when a Zhou commander led his troops to pressure the border, not only did he not commit any crimes wherever he went, but when he withdrew his troops, he also distributed the surplus grain and grass in the army to the starving tribesmen. He saved the dying Ghost Rong tribe. However, it is sad that such a good official was sent to death by the Son of Heaven of the Zhou Dynasty. ”
Su Ji asked: "King Ghost Rong, the commander of the Zhou people you are talking about, but the former Taishi of the Zhou Dynasty, Xi Bo Jifu?"
When he heard this name, Ghost Rong's eyes were full of gratitude, and he nodded slowly.
Mu Lingyu walked over and said, "He is the son of Xi Bojifu. ”
As soon as he blurted out, there was a commotion around him.
King Ghost Rong looked stunned, got off his horse, and staggered to Su Ji.
The light of the torch illuminated Su Ji's face.
"You and him were ...... when they were young" King Ghost Rong stared at Su Ji's appearance, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't speak, just grabbed Su Ji's hand tightly.
Su Ji felt his hand tremble.
The excited expression on the face of the King of Ghost Rong seemed to be about to cry with joy, but he did not make a sound, and said word by word:
"I will avenge your father......"
All the warriors of the dog and ghost Rong set their eyes on Su Ji together.
Su Ji faced the warriors of the Rong tribe, and he said solemnly: "The purpose of my visit this time is to unite all the tribes of the Rong tribe and crusade against Ji Gongyan. However, I have something to say. Your enemy is Ji Gongyan, not the people of the Zhou Chamber. If anyone dares to point his sword at the unarmed people, I will never let it go!"
Mu Lingyu relayed Su Ji's words to the warriors of Ghost Rong and Dog Rong.
The warriors put their hands on their chests, bowed their heads in greeting, and shouted in unison: "Follow Kabuda!"
The warriors were led by Samoyeds, and each of the dog warriors raised their weapons, raised their arms and shouted, "Avenge the children!"
The generals of the ghost Rong were also infected, and waved their arms after them, shouting loudly: "Kabuda will guide us and eradicate the faint king!"
The shouts of thousands of Rong people shook the four fields.
That night, the Ghost Cavalry withdrew from the Inurong camp.
Su Ji stayed in the camp for a few days, and learned from the Dog Witch Doctor that they would concoct an antidote to killing fairy spiders. However, it will take at least two months to prepare enough antidote for the Bairong people to take.
Su Ji planned to use this period to visit and unite with the last tribe in the Wurong of the Western Regions, the Yiqu Rong.
Before leaving, King Dog Rong said to Mu Lingyu: "Yu'er, I don't want to interfere in your marriage anymore. However, on the Yiqu side, you still have to give them an explanation. ”
