Chapter 8 Chapter 44 Stalemate
Just when the armies of the Yan family and the Xiahou family were at a loss, suddenly-
"Enemy attack!"
"Enemy attack!"
A loud and sharp voice came from the west, because the Yan army could not occupy the northern low mountain, there were many casualties, and their morale was low, and they were even more shocked when they heard the shout of "enemy attack". And the Western front army has already fought with the enemy.
At this moment, he couldn't care about attacking the northern dwarf mountain anymore, Yan Baizhen, Xiahou An, and Iron Sword Martial Saint all looked to the west, and a sergeant with a small flag behind him rushed over quickly.
"Which side is it?" Yan Baizhen's face changed slightly.
"The head of the family is the army of the Duan family. The sergeant who rushed over said, "The second general is leading the army on the right flank to resist the attack of the Duan family's army. ”
Yan Baizhen nodded slightly.
Sword Martial Saint said in a deep voice. "Go ahead and take a look. ”
Immediately, the Iron Sword Martial Saint, Yan Baizhen, and Xiahou An rushed towards the right flank together, and as they advanced, they also heard the shouting and killing sound from the front, and it didn't take long for Yan Baizhan and the others to arrive in the right wing army, only to hear a terrible shout: "Run!
The military flag had already fallen, and the sergeants who were like headless flies began to rout frantically in the face of the attack of the Duan family's elite army, which was full of morale!
Tens of millions of people are fighting, but in fact, it is morale!
Once the front is defeated, a rout tide is formed...... Even if the sergeants in the back want to go up, they will be crushed by the rout fleeing in front, the so-called defeat is like a mountain, the front forms a rout, and it will be very difficult to reverse the situation in the back.
"Not good. Yan Baizhen's face changed greatly.
"Why is the Duan family so powerful and able to defeat the right wing army so quickly?" the Iron Sword Martial Saint was a little surprised.
"Brother Xiahou, it's up to you. After Yan Baizhen finished speaking, he hurriedly shouted loudly, "Wu Jian, you lead your subordinates to block them for me...... The others break through to the north!"
The rout army was in chaos, and Yan Baizhan was now desperately trying to reduce his losses.
......
Half an hour later, with the help of the Xiahou family's army, after withstanding the Duan family's attack head-on, the Yan family finally took a breath and saved the vast majority of the people, even so...... It also caused a blood-stained corpse to be seen everywhere in the mountains and forests where he fled, and just one fierce attack caused the Yan family to lose nearly 10,000 people!
"Duan Shijin, if you don't take revenge, I swear not to be a !!" Yan Baizhen, who was dirty, looked at the west and couldn't help gritting his teeth.
In just half an hour, nearly 10,000 people had been lost, and even his own brother Yan Baizhan had been trampled to death by the rout! The death of his own brother and the sudden blow made Yan Baizhan furious.
"Why is this family's army so powerful?" Xiahou's family also had an ugly face, "My Xiahou family has been prepared for a long time, and when I saw the right time, I was also beaten back a mile, killing and wounding thousands of people." ”
"Armor!"
The Iron Sword Martial Saint said in a deep voice, "The elite part of the Duan family's army, the armor they wear, they are all equal armor, they are all good armor worth a set of thousands of taels of silver, ordinary swords are difficult to hurt, thousands of elite soldiers wear this kind of armor, and it is not surprising that they can't withstand the sharp knives of the army." ”
"How can their Duan family have such good armor?" Xiahou An narrowed his one-eyed eyes, "This kind of armor, one or two pieces are enough, more than a thousand, even if you have money, you can't buy it." ”
Duanmu 600 clans compete for hegemony, and they attach great importance to the material of war.
The bulk purchase and sale of ordinary inferior armor must be regulated, let alone such armor. A set of thousands of taels of silver requires millions of taels of silver...... The silver is small, and so much armor that ordinary families can't buy at all.
"Maybe this part of the house is hidden deep and has such armor. Yan Baijia said coldly.
"Not necessarily, there's a worse scenario. The Iron Sword Martial Saint said in a deep voice, and Yan Baizhan and Xiahou An both looked at it.
Worse?
"Behind this family, maybe there is the support of the Rising Sun Trading Company!" said the Iron Sword Martial Saint.
Yan Baizhan and Xiahou An immediately gasped. "If that's the case, it's going to be a problem. Xiahou'an's face changed slightly.
The Rising Sun Firm, that is all over the world, the slave trade in the world, this Rising Sun Firm, accounts for two or three percent, almost every city, this Rising Sun Firm, this Rising Sun Firm, has its guards! Although it is idle all over the world, if it is assembled, then it will be a very terrible number.
"Don't worry now. ”
The Iron Sword Martial Saint said indifferently. "Before, we wanted to take the North Dwarf Mountain in one go, then we would have succeeded for the most part. However, since we did not take the North Dwarf Mountain, we are not in a hurry to attack, after all...... Up to now, the Tantai family, the Dong family, and the Fu family have not moved at all. They dispatched so many troops, it was impossible for them to just come to see the play. ”
Yan Baizhan and Xiahou An nodded.
"Now, we're waiting to see what happens. "Iron Sword Martial Saint looked at the direction of the North Dwarf Mountain, and at this moment, the foot of the North Dwarf Mountain was still occupied by the Duan family's army," What's more, Mr. Teng is on the top of the North Dwarf Mountain, and it is impossible for the Duan family's army to capture it. ”
"Well, it's impossible. ”
Thinking of Teng Qingshan's previous methods, Yan Baizhan and Xiahou An were even more relieved.
"Let this family also try the Teng Qingshan method. Yan Baizhan thought maliciously.
.........
The summit of the North Dwarf Mountain.
Teng Qingshan was still sitting cross-legged quietly, and the bloody battle in the raw land below before did not affect Teng Qingshan at all.
"This family has some means, and it has forced the Xiahou family and the Yan family to retreat. Teng Qingshan looked at the army below.
The troops below were orderly and orderly, and tens of thousands of sergeants looked up at the top of the mountain, and were stared at by so many sergeants, which was also extremely stressful. But Teng Qingshan smiled lightly and looked down, as if he was a god, looking at countless ordinary human beings. "Mr. Teng!" a clear but loud voice came through the convoy, "In the next section of Shi Jin, I asked Mr. Daming, the previous gentlemen and the Iron Sword Martial Saint battled, and I was also fortunate to have a look, Mr. is talented, however, my Duan family also has an army of 100,000 people, and I don't want to be an enemy of Mr., so I ask Mr. to give up this northern dwarf mountain...... At that time, my Duan family will definitely have a lot of gratitude. ”
Teng Qingshan shook his head and smiled.
"Duan Shijin, please leave. Teng Qingshan's loud voice echoed in the mountains and forests.
"Mr. Teng...... "Shi Jin still wants to persuade him.
"Leave. Teng Qingshan said coldly again.
Duan Shijin, who had not seen Teng Qingshan's means before, didn't think that one person could really block thousands of troops and horses from occupying the mountain, and immediately gave an order, nearly a thousand soldiers rushed to the foot of the North Dwarf Mountain, and then began to climb almost at the same time, when these military difficulties climbed to the ordinary.
Whoa!
One by one, the burning stones broke through the air, causing the walls of the North Dwarf Mountain to burst open everywhere, and a large number of broken stones rolled down, and many of the soldiers who were climbing fell from a height, smashed on the rocks below, and died tragically on the spot with their heads cracked. There are also lucky ones who save their lives.
In just one wave of attacks, the Duan family lost hundreds of people.
A groan of pain joined the province.
The sergeants of the Duan family who saw this scene couldn't help but turn pale, and they were all afraid...... Ordered to climb the mountain.
"This, this ......" Duan Shijin, who was under the protection of many sergeants, was a very elegant middle-aged man, and his face was really not good-looking at the moment.
"Brother Duan. A deep voice came.
A man in dark armor and a helmet on his head approached, his face blocked by the wire mask of the armor, making it impossible to see his face clearly.
Duan Shijin looked back and greeted him
"Give up. The armored man whispered a lot of words to Duan Shijin, at first Duan Shijin didn't quite agree, but after a while, Duan Shijin finally agreed.
......
"Huh?" Teng Qingshan watched the sergeants below retreat, and then began to move the bodies of the dead and wounded sergeants while sitting down to rest. There was even curling smoke rising, and it was clear that cooking had already begun.
"Gave up so quickly. Teng Qingshan smiled slightly, "It's okay to give up, no matter what, this northern dwarf mountain must not be completely occupied by a certain big family." It is best to wait for the Tai family, the Wu family, the Dong family, etc., to also approach the army and surround this canyon. When the time comes, all sides will restrain each other......"
Everything was as Teng Qingshan had planned, no family dared to surround the canyon, and if they did that, they would be attacked by all the other families.
Each family occupies part of the area around the canyon.
The Xiahou family, the Yan family, the Duan family, the Dong family, the Shantai family, and the Wu family, including the Fu family, who arrived in the early morning of the next day, and the elder brother was very close to the Huojiao Iron Canyon, and the 70,000 horses restrained each other. And in it...... Obviously, the Yan family and the Xiahou family, who are allied with each other, are the most powerful.
In a large tent in the Fu family's military camp.
Teng Qingshan, Li Jun, Teng Beast, Yang Dong, including Qingluan and Storm Eagle, are among them.
"Sir. Fu Dao entered the big tent.
"Mr. has worked hard this time, if it weren't for Mr., then the Xiahou family and the Yan family would probably have occupied the North Dwarf Mountain, and with the strength of their two families, they would have occupied the geographical advantage. At the same time, the canyon will be sealed, and when the time comes...... If you want to take it, you can't do it unless you have five or six times the military strength. Fu Dao smiled.
Teng Qingshan shook his head: "Fu Dao, your Fu family has too few manpower, and it is difficult to occupy this vein." ”
Even if Teng Qingshan's strength is overwhelming, he is only one person after all.
"yes. Fu Dao was also a little anxious, "Now, the seven parties are deadlocked, and our Fu family can be juxtaposed with the other six parties, or because there is a gentleman here! With the strength of Mr., we can completely occupy the North Dwarf Mountain." But my Fu family ......"
Fu Dao also understands his own weakness.
"Fu Dao, now the other families outside are probably going to start forming alliances. Teng Qingshan asked.
"Yes. ”
Fu Dao nodded, "This time, the Wu family was attacked by the Yan family and the Xiahou family, and suffered a big loss. It is estimated that the Shantai family, the Dong family, etc., also know this situation, if they don't form an alliance, I'm afraid it will be difficult to monopolize the fire gilt iron ore vein. It's a pity that now, no one has asked my Fu family to form an alliance. ”
"Mr. Teng. There was a shout from inside the tent.
"Come in. Teng Qingshan spoke.
It was the head of the Fu family who came in, 'Fu Yunzhan', Fu Yunzhan looked happy, looked at Fu Dao and said, "Uncle, the envoy of the Duan family has come outside." ”
"Duan family?" Fu Dao couldn't help but show a hint of joy.
"However, they said they wanted to see Mr. Teng." Fu Yunzhan looked at Teng Qingshan.
