Chapter 54: The Vanishing Mountain Legion
In the fierce battle between the two sides, Fan Baili's eyes swept the entire battlefield again, and then felt a little regretful. With the exception of a mid-level commander, no other senior commanders were present on the battlefield.
This is a sub-battlefield, and even the on-site command of the operation is not carried out by the commander himself. The situation in front of him was evenly matched, with both sides attacking and defending separately, without the slightest hint of the previous fiery battle.
The battle has become white-hot, and the tide of demon cult armies is pouring in from all directions, and the battle is going on in every corner.
Fan Baili didn't mean to help, after all, the leaders of the two teams had no plans for a decisive battle, and they didn't have a chance to make a move.
Zhang Tianyu took a few looks, and after confirming that there was no target worth shooting, he beckoned Fan Baili to retreat together.
Dream chasing retreated from Zhennan Pass, and after the Demon Sect successfully ambushed in Shili Gorge, a large number of righteous path legions began to retreat, and the target was a few hundred miles of clearing in the northeast of Luoyun Pass, where the mountains were gentle, and there were only some small hills, which was a suitable place for a decisive battle.
Due to the infiltration of the Demon Sect, there is no place in the area of Shili Gorge and south of Luoyun Pass that is safe. In addition to the mountain saints, there are also some other legions that are good at interspersing with twists and turns.
After Xu Zhennan left office, Quan Tong commanded for him.
Compared with Xu, Quan's talent is much worse, but there is one thing, he is very stable. It was in this way that he ordered the withdrawal of all the legions south of Luoyun Pass.
It stands to reason that Wang Dingbian, as a man who is good at attacking, is the best choice for the commander. But it was Quan Tong who received the big seal, and many people couldn't figure it out.
In fact, at this time, it was the stage of Dream Chaser shrinking its defense, and the main task of the legion was to prevent a sneak attack and make a plan before.
And these are exactly what Wang Dingbian lacks.
Some of the previous arrangements of Xu Zhennan were due to the changes in the Battle of Shilixia, and many people had already fallen into the enemy's rear before they had time to retreat. At this moment, there are no reinforcements, only they can save themselves.
Zhang Tianyu and Fan Baili have seen several such battles.
The guards of the righteous general began to suffer casualties, and the other side was not much better. These two teams coincidentally chose to fight with their opponents, and neither of them retreated by half a point.
Maybe on the main frontal battlefield, this can be exchanged for a lot of praise for bravery and the like, but this is a marginal battlefield.
Is this really necessary?
"It seems that the style of this legion is still related to his main general. Seeing that this person is a lord who would rather die than retreat, he took pity on their subordinates. ”
"How do you know that your men are pitiful, maybe that's what they want?"
"How is it possible, who doesn't want to survive the battlefield and then be able to return to their familiar homeland?"
"There will always be some people who, if they don't die on the battlefield, will be seen as not heroic enough!"
"Isn't this race already gone, and people are scrambling to die, and there will be survivors?"
"On the contrary, they are the greatest people in the land, and no race dares to look down on them, and the martial spirit brings not only courage but also glory, and people follow one after another. Do you dare to fight such a spiritual race?"
"Of course I don't dare to ......"
Fan Baili looked at the battlefield, and then at Zhang Tianyu, as if he remembered that there were many strange people and strange things he had encountered in the past, and he was relieved.
Two days later, it was still a similar scene, and there was still no mountain saint antelope and Cheng Mo, which made Fan Baili very frustrated. Most of the frontal battlefields are in the plains, not where they are active. That's why the two of them rummaged back and forth in the corners of the mountains, but after almost all the corners, they still didn't find anything.
"Brother Zhang, they won't just go back and stand by, otherwise how could a legion disappear from their noses. ”
"I don't have to go back, I'm just afraid that I am ambushed in some corner, waiting for the next opportunity to attack. In fact, with the strength of the mountain holy antelope, if there is a war horse or a heavy horse, it will not be worse than others. And one of the reasons why his reputation has always been inferior to others is that the mountain saints do not like to attack openly, they often lurk, and quickly flee thousands of miles after giving the enemy a blow. Just as we did in the Ten Mile Gorge. ”
"So they've always been despised?"
"It can't be said to be a simple contempt, but a very complex emotion, there is unwillingness, anger, contempt, but also fear. ”
Fan Baili couldn't help frowning when he heard this, it looked like this, it was indeed complicated enough.
Somewhere in an unknown mountain forest five hundred miles away, under the cover of an endless mountain, a team of people here could not be detected at all.
The Hengduan Mountains stretch for thousands of miles, and the remaining veins are even more extensive.
This area is a branch of the Hengduan mountain range, but unlike them, their peaks are very steep and layered.
Since ancient times, this place has not been a suitable place to pass, so this mountain forest has remained the same as it was many thousands of years ago. The moat of flying bird difficulty blocks the communication between the two ends of the mountain.
None of the tigers in the north of the mountain turned over. Similarly, the spotted leopard in Shannan did not come. They are at ease in their respective territories as the emperor of the soil, carefree.
Until this day, a team of uninvited guests arrived.
That's right, it's the disappeared mountain antelope.
"Commander, there are more than thousands of mountains here, and dozens of brothers have frozen to death along the way, and many of them have basically lost their hands and feet because of frostbite. If this continues, I am afraid that in the end, only fifty percent of the combat power will remain. ”
"Yes, Commander, the brethren are very good, and many of them have been half alive. I didn't die on a familiar battlefield, but I died in such an inaccessible place, and I was unwilling. ”
"You two, let me ask you, do you know who the opponent we killed and hit hard in the first place?"
"Isn't it just the children of two families? So what, we've killed some in the past, what can they do?"
"Yes, give them some skills, how can they still fight us? Not everyone is from the bobcat. ”
"What if that gentleman's surname is Ji?"
"What's wrong with the surname Ji, it's not yet...... Wait, what are you talking about, surnamed Ji?"
Seeing Chengmo nodded, his brain exploded with a buzz.
That's the descendant of the Ji family, who used to be the supreme existence of the human race.
It is rumored that among the major royal families, the surname Ji is the most protective of his children, which is significantly different from others. Once, when a disciple was trying out in the neutral zone of southern Xinjiang, he was killed by a senior disciple of the Demon Sect.
At this time, it was fried, and the Ji family had greeted Baihuajiuli Wanquan successively, but they were all regarded as jokes. In the end, the Ji family still relied on their elite team to go deeper, not only executing that person Ling Chi, but also overturning the entire small gang, among which there were no middle and senior masters.
