Chapter 1003: The More the Merrier
In the underground spiritual cave, don't beg for Huang Li to explain Bai Qi and Han Xin's way of using troops. Bai Qi used the soldiers in a decent manner, and there was no place for the slightest brilliance for the time being. However, Han Xin's methods were extremely effective, and he gave full play to his advantages in human resources and ordnance.
What ordinary soldiers can do, there is no need to waste jīng's sharp military strength to do.
Hundreds of thousands of soldiers who were slightly stronger than mortals used bows and crossbows to withstand the charge of millions of soldiers. Da Yu's soldiers were constantly injured in the arrows and constantly consumed jīng strength, while the Jīng Rui army of the Ling Dynasty was raising jīng in the barracks, waiting for Da Yu's morale to decline, and the Ling Dynasty army was killed from the middle, and Bai Qi was about to be defeated.
A battle of millions of people is a drop in the bucket for both Dayu and the Ling Dynasty, and even if the soldiers are lost, it will not hurt the overall situation. But this represents the face of Bai Qi and Han Xin, no matter who loses, it will be a great blow to themselves.
In particular, this is the first battle of the all-out war between Dayu and Lingchao, and whoever wins or loses will have a great impact on the morale of the two countries.
The sky was full of arrows like rain, and the soldiers who charged on the left and right flanks showed a little tiredness. Although their ** still maintains abundant strength, their souls are tired, fighting from noon until evening, constantly being blown away by arrows, and constantly recovering their strength and rejoining the battlefield. You know, being stuck with arrows like a hedgehog is not very pleasant.
Some of the Great Yu soldiers had slowed down, they still had strength, but they didn't have the heart to fight anymore.
On the middle mountain bag of the big camp, several Lingchao generals around Han Xin laughed loudly, and they complimented Han Xin: "Dashuai, that Bai Qi uses soldiers like this, when his soldiers are tired, I can eat at least half of his soldiers and horses!"
The corners of Han Xin's mouth hooked, smiled lightly, and then scolded: "A group of stupid pigs, is Bai Qi such an easy person to deal with? Don't you see that he is still standing motionless in front of the broken city wall? Always be on guard and see what other means he has!"
Soon another half an hour passed, and the soldiers who attacked Han Xin's camp on both wings had lost more than 10,000 people, all of whom were unlucky enough to be hit in the head by the arrows, and the exploding arrows shattered their heads and completely cut off their vitality. The other soldiers didn't know how many times they had been injured by the arrows, and even many of their arms and thighs had been blown off, but under the nourishment of Pangu Purple Qi, they were reborn and continued to join the battle group.
But they were tired from the wounds and the severe pain, and the speed and frequency of the soldiers' charges were several times slower than when they had just launched the attack at noon. Even some of the soldiers hesitated to stand at the back of the line, and they did not continue to charge for a long time.
Han Xin on the mountain bag glanced at Bai Qi who was standing in the distance, he clapped his hands gently, and a general beside him immediately took out the dragon horn and blew it. The sharp and unpleasant sound of the horn soared into the air, the dull footsteps sounded, and the Lingchao camp was full of war meals, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers who had been raising their kīng for a whole afternoon slowly left the barracks with heavy armor. They formed thousands of small jīng fierce cone charging formations in the open space in the camp, like hungry wolves ready to pounce, and slowly pressed towards the Dayu army that had already shown fatigue on both wings.
The Lingchao priests who accompanied the army floated above the army, and large pieces of bone talismans were constantly sprinkled in their palms, and the ghost howls were everywhere, and the bodies of the Lingchao soldiers were covered with a faint layer of ghost fire with a certain defensive power and full of corrosive power, and their eyes also spewed out a trace of fire. Hundreds of thousands of Spirit Dynasty soldiers breathed low at the same time, and the sound of 'whirring' breathing turned into a violent wind, blowing sand and dust on the ground.
The hesitation and fear in the hearts of these soldiers were dispelled by the spells of the priests, and the strong intent to fight and the desire to kill took control of their minds. These soldiers of the Spirit Dynasty turned into hundreds of thousands of bloodthirsty beasts, barely maintaining the last shred of sanity and joining the battle group.
The dull sound of war drums sounded, and a large number of black-robed priests appeared behind the two wings of Dayu's army formation, and they also spilled a large number of bone talismans, and also blessed the soldiers of Dayu with various defensive prohibitions. There are even priests chanting incantations in a shrill voice, sprinkling a large amount of blood to dispel the fatigue on the soldiers' bodies, boost their morale, and give the soldiers the strength to continue fighting.
With the blessing of the priests, the already exhausted Dayu soldiers were full of jīng power as if they had returned to the light, and they rushed towards the military camp of the Spirit Dynasty with a howl. The dense rain of arrows had stopped, and the Ling Dynasty soldiers in the Tibetan Soldier Cave had already rushed back to the camp through the tunnel, and only hundreds of thousands of Ling Dynasty soldiers who had reached their peak physical strength and morale were slowly coming up to meet them.
In the blink of an eye, the armies of both sides were in a mess, and the sound of fighting erupted, and the spears and swords tore through the air, smashing all the enemies in front of the edge. The generals leading the two sides fought one-on-one, and the low-ranking officers and non-commissioned officers fought wildly, and blood was spilled all over the ground.
More than a million soldiers on both sides were entangled, and the priests of both sides in the sky also joined the battle group. Firelight, thunder, ice, storm, and snow roared across the land, and a large number of soldiers were thrown up and torn to pieces, and some of the soldiers suddenly turned black, or bleeding from their seven orifices, or spit out their long tongues, or shed a large amount of blood from their internal organs from the back court. In the face of the strange priestly spell, the soldiers on both sides were killed and wounded in large numbers.
Han Xin frowned, the sharpness of the Da Yu soldiers was beyond his imagination, basically two to three Spirit Dynasty soldiers could barely fight against one Da Yu soldier. In a quarter of an hour of fighting, more than 100,000 soldiers of the Ling Dynasty were killed and wounded, and although more than 90,000 wounded soldiers quickly returned to the battlefield, their strength was greatly weakened.
The blades of the Dayu soldiers all have a trace of weird blue sè, this is the poison prepared by the Dayu priests, as long as they are injured by this quenched weapon, even if they quickly recover from their injuries with the help of Pangu purple qi, the injured soldiers will lose two or three percent of their strength. Although the soldiers of Dayu were tired troops, they gradually gained the upper hand.
"Quenching poison on weapons?" Han Xin raised his long eyebrows and sneered, "Why wouldn't the priests of the Spirit Dynasty prepare this poison?"
The surrounding generals of the Spirit Dynasty looked at each other and were silent, all the spells of the priests of the Spirit Dynasty were taught by the immortals of the Heavenly Court, in order to better control the Spirit Dynasty and prevent the Spirit Dynasty from evolving into another big Yu in the end, the immortals of the Heavenly Court were not stupid enough to pass down all the human spells they knew.
The poison on the weapons of the Great Yu soldiers not only has a good weakening effect on the Terran soldiers, but also has an extremely terrifying lethality to the fragile bodies of the immortals. Unless those immortals in the Heavenly Court had a cramp in their brains, they wouldn't have time to destroy the recipes of these terrible poisons, how could they teach the priests of the Spirit Dynasty how to prepare these poisons?
Han Xin spread his hands helplessly, and he smiled bitterly: "I understand...... Hmm, the soldiers are not as sharp as the others, and the weapons and ordnance are not as good as the others, and the fault is that I have another set of marching formations, I am afraid that this army has already been annihilated by Dayu! With this bit of family foundation, I dare to shout for the destruction of Dayu and replace it?"
The generals of the Spirit Dynasty on the side did not dare to answer this question, Han Xin's complaints were not just directed at the Spirit Dynasty, he was complaining more about some people in the Heavenly Court. Han Xin dared to say this kind of thing, and his backers were tough enough! But if these generals dared to say this, I am afraid that they would disappear within a few days.
After complaining for a while, Han Xin shook his head and shook his hand to send out a fireball into the air.
Bai Sè's fireball dragged the long tail of smoke up dozens of miles high, and then exploded in the air and turned into a dazzling bright light. The light flame continued for a long time, and there was a sudden shouting of killing that was almost crazy in the surrounding mountains and forests.
Countless cultivators who had cultivated to the highest level were only in the realm of the Yuan Shen escaped from the mountains and forests in the distance, and rushed into Dayu's military array with sword light. These monks slashed their sword light indiscriminately in all directions, detonating all kinds of yīn thunder and spirit runes in their hands, and then brazenly exploded the Yuan Shen.
The cultivation of these monks is low, but once they explode, the power is extremely terrifying. There was a strange fishy smell hidden in the blood light that burst out of them, and the nearby Dayu soldiers smelled this aroma and immediately felt weak and numb, and many of them simply softened on the ground and couldn't move, allowing the soldiers of the Spirit Dynasty to chop off their heads like chopping melons and vegetables.
Tens of thousands of monks rushed into the Dayu army, their yīn thunder and spirit runes killed and injured tens of thousands of Dayu soldiers, and their self-explosion shattered the array of Dayu soldiers. The strange aroma emanating from their bodies was similar to the drunken dragon incense of Beggar, and the soldiers of Dayu fell to the ground in rows, and they could only watch as the soldiers of the Spirit Dynasty waved their swords and slashed down at them.
Bai Qi frowned and watched his soldiers' feet waver, and he shouted: "Han Xin, you are so shameless, you actually used poison techniques?"
Han Xin snorted coldly and glanced at Bai Qi mockingly. Bai Qi suddenly woke up to the fact that Dayu's soldiers were also quenched with poison on their blades, and no one said anything, and it was not only Han Xin who used poison. Bai Qi immediately changed his words and said, "Even these low-level cultivators have been used, isn't there no one in the Spirit Dynasty?"
Han Xin laughed disapprerovingly: "Only by using these unpopular monks to defeat the army led by you Bai Qi can my means be revealed!"
Han Xin, who laughed loudly, pointed his hand, and nine consecutive white fireballs went straight into the air. In the midst of a huge explosion, shouts of killing were heard from all directions at the same time. More than 200,000 monks who hid in the mountains and forests with various escape methods frantically killed, and like the monks who blew themselves up just now, they activated the yīn thunder spirit rune, rushed into Dayu's military array, and then blew up the Yuan Infant and the Yuan Shen.
The spiritual light flashed in the void, and every trace of the true spirit of these people was sucked away.
Dayu's military formation was completely chaotic, and the soldiers were weak and weak, and they didn't even have the strength to turn around and escape.
The soldiers of the Spirit Dynasty were like rain of swords, mercilessly killing the soldiers of Dayu one by one.
Bai Qi's face turned blue with anger, and he waved his hand heavily.
Han Xin said in a casual and long voice: "Bai Qi, my Han Xin soldiers are like this, even if it is a group of garbage, as long as there are enough people, I can use them to defeat all the enemies in front of me." Do you have any follow-up means? If not, I will order a general attack!"
Bai Qi smiled and glanced back.
A Taoist man dressed in a green cloth robe with a clear skeleton like an ancient pine slowly walked out of the city.
