Chapter 668: The Second Battle
When the desolate horn sounded, it resounded through the sky. Hu Zhongyuan also instinctively woke up from his deep sleep, shook his head, and strode up to the tower of the stone castle.
Over the past few months, an instinct has already been formed. Bai Yue can sleep soundly even with drums beating beside her ears. But as soon as the sun sets, he can wake up.
Along the way, I saw countless soldiers, under the command of their respective brigade commanders, lined up one after another, marching towards the city wall in an orderly manner.
Many of them were recruits who arrived in the last two days. However, after experiencing the battle last night, there is no longer the daze in his eyes when he first came here.
It's just that there is still a bit of fear and fear in the eyes.
Hu Zhongyuan shook his head slightly, and stood still on the tower with a big horse and a golden knife.
Observing the battlefield from here, it can be seen that with this amount of money, the remaining ninety or so stone castles are already in full swing.
At this time, it should be the most powerful time for him since March! Zong Lan and Ren Tianxing searched for all the best soldiers from the west of Huizhou to help. Riding beasts instead of walking day and night, he finally caught up. Within six days, he brought an entire army of more than one million people to the foot of Qixia Mountain.
Let the soldiers gathered here reach 2.4 million in one fell swoop.
With his left wing alone, he commanded a total of fifty military towns!
Although they were all surrendered soldiers, some had two minds, and some were extremely resentful towards Qian Tianshan.
However, he is a tiger in the Central Plains, but he is confident that he can integrate his forces. With the veterans of previous battles as their bones, it is enough for these people to maintain sufficient combat power.
In the fierce battle in March, it was not only his martial arts that were sublimated in the bitter battle.
Commanding the army has gradually become handy!
Looking at the opposite side, the night demon army formation that is approaching. Hu Zhongyuan suddenly heard a loud roar, and only a moment later, the mountain was shaking under his feet, making his walking almost unsteady.
The sound made people's eardrums hurt deeply, and it could not stop for more than a hundred miles.
At this time, it was not only the soldiers under his command who looked at the place where the voice echoed in astonishment. Even the Ye Mo on the opposite side was in a daze.
Hu Zhongyuan narrowed his eyes and looked back. It doesn't take much to know that Kong Yao has completely blown up the only gorge leading to the hinterland of Huizhou, which is more than ten miles away.
From then on, the Qixia Mountain was the place of death. There are more than two million people here, there is no way to retreat, no way to escape!
He didn't care in his heart that he was determined to make a move, so naturally he didn't care if there was a way out.
What needs to be worried is only these subordinates.
It's just that when he looked around, he felt certain in his heart.
The elite from the headquarters of Qiantian Mountain naturally don't have to worry.
The rest of the surrendered troops were in better condition than he expected.
Speaking of which, the woman had informed the whole army of this matter as early as a day ago.
Although there were voices of dissatisfaction and complaints at that time, since the heart was already prepared. When the matter came to an end, there was no panic when I first heard that the retreat was cut off.
At this moment, the faces of many soldiers were filled with silence and despair, and they were holding the weapons in their hands numbly.
This is knowing that si is inevitable but has settled down.
Many people subconsciously glanced at the top of Qixia Mountain.
In that direction, a group of shining golden light entered the eyes. There was a little anger in the eyes of these people.
That "Left Army Check Point" cut off everyone's escape route, but he once said that even if she died here today, she would not take half a step back!
Hu Zhongyuan smiled, a little admiringly in his heart.
The grasp of this woman's heart is simply at its peak!
At this time, although most of the tribes in the lower Tang Dynasty have lost their hope of life, they all have the intention of committing suicide at the same time.
Even if the newcomers surrender, they don't worry if they don't fight.
After all, this Huizhou is the place where these people were raised.
On the contrary, it should have nothing to do with them
Squinting his eyes, Hu Zhongyuan waited with leisure. Until Chai Zhou stood beside him.
"Something is wrong today, it seems that there is going to be desperate one by one"
As far as the eye can see, there are more than one hundred thousand night demon phalanxes neatly arranged twenty miles ahead.
The momentum today is indeed somewhat different. In those eyes, there was a redness early on. The formation is dense and well-organized, but the fighting spirit is fierce.
The most surprising thing is that in the past, the hundreds of thousands of fourth-level elites that Jia Mingluo had always cherished incomparably were placed on the front line at this time.
Hu Zhongyuan smiled indifferently: "So what if it's different? Before March, the Night Demon's 2 million troops couldn't defeat us. So what can we do if we try our best?"
But with a little worry, he looked to the right.
The only worry is that in this battle, the Chinese army bears the most pressure.
Unexpectedly, Kong Yao gave Ren Tianxing the chief general of the Chinese army who was originally in charge of Zong Yuan.
Not only did it completely liberate the Blood Cloud Cavalry. It also allowed Zong Yuan to concentrate on commanding the 300,000 elite cavalry.
But that kid, can he really do it?
I feel even more apprehensive, he is a tiger in the Central Plains, but after many years, he has the current position in the army.
But Ren Tianxing, in just one year, has already become a general in the field, and won Zong Shouxin's respect.
"Ren Tianxing's ability to use soldiers, he even admires the right hand. It must be reasonable to say that you are not as good as him! Why do you need to worry about that one? Just take care of yourself."
Chai Zhou sneered, with a mocking tone. Immediately afterwards, the voice condensed slightly again.
"here we go!"
Hu Zhongyuan snorted dissatisfiedly, then raised his brows.
What he saw in his eyes were hundreds of large ballistas being pushed out from the night demon army. In just a moment, thousands of crossbow arrows flew into the sky.
There are nearly 300 giant gown carts full of runes at the rear, and hundreds of black spheres are projected towards them. . .
Every time it falls, there will be a vast purple-black thunder that bursts and covers a land of hundreds of feet.
Within this range, below the fourth level, almost all soldiers touched will be torn to pieces,
The spirit formation in the stone castle was shaking constantly, as if it was overwhelmed.
Hu Zhongyuan didn't care, and stood firm.
Sure enough, in just a moment, the giant crossbow on the top of the mountain had already started to fight back.
The nine-armed crossbow was snatched from Wei Hai, and it was damaged a lot, but it was still 70 pieces in size. Including the ninth-order yuan extinguishing crossbow from Qiantian, the total amounted to more than two hundred.
Although the number is slightly lower, but because it is on the top of the mountain, the range is longer. But in a short while, the arrogance of the ballista and cannon on the opposite side had been suppressed.
It's just that, these killer weapons up to the ninth level are all restrained. There is no need to count on the next battle situation.
Hu Zhongyuan's expression was blank, like this situation, I don't know how many times it has been repeated in the past three months.
The night demon commander on the opposite side also seemed to know that it was impossible to destroy the defense line on the opposite side with just the power of this weapon. After about half a quarter of an hour, rows of phalanxes began to move forward.
Hu Zhongyuan also sneered coldly, and took up the Huba knife in his hand.
At first glance, he knew that the rest of the places were feints to disperse his troops.
The breakthrough point he really chose was the stone castle where he was standing at the moment.
This is the most dilapidated and weakest of the more than twenty stone castles on the left wing
But he is full of fighting spirit, and it is precisely because he knows that this fort is the most dangerous that he will stand here and command the battle.
Today, let's see if these night demons are capable enough to step over his corpse!
At this time, the spiritual master hiding in the depths of the stone castle was already relying on the altar to perform spiritual methods. In the starry sky, countless light spots fell down. It was a meteorite the size of a millstone, covering the night demon battle formation ahead.
It's just that in the opponent's formation, nearly forty seventh-rank powerhouses immediately flew up, and smashed these meteorites one by one.
It was only in the end that some of the fish that slipped through the net caused some chaos and wounds in the night demon battle formation.
And the counterattack from the opposite side followed. Hundreds of red fireballs boiled over. It burst under the city wall, causing the city wall to shake for a while.
The corner of Hu Zhongyuan's lips twitched, and suddenly he also flew up to a height of hundreds of feet.
With one swing of the knife, the whole person seemed to be transformed into a tiger. The blade and arm even vaguely revealed the shape of a white tiger.
This knife is a tiger and bully for thousands of years!
The iron tiger clan is one of the inheritance of the white tiger's direct blood, and the sword's intention is extremely sharp!
It's not Hu Cheqiu's inheritance, but he created it himself by studying the Platinum Dragon Sword kept in Qiantian Zangshu Pavilion by Xizong.
So far, there are only three styles, but there is nothing that cannot be cut and nothing that cannot be broken!
Where the knife light passed, there was a sharp howl immediately. Two seventh-level night demons in succession fell from the sky almost on the spot, blood was scattered everywhere, and there was no sound.
However, more counterattacks also rushed towards him. Hu Zhongyuan didn't care, and retreated quickly while dodging.
Only when it was unavoidable would he swing the Huba Saber in his hand, cutting down those swords and swords one by one.
Sure enough, just when he was about to run out of strength, a giant ax and several powerful lights all came across the sky. After receiving and guiding him, he safely returned to the Stone Castle Spirit Formation.
"God, even if you want to die, you tiger cat, don't choose this time!"
Chai Zhou cursed at the first moment. I was afraid in my heart, if just now, a ninth-level night demon attacked him, this guy might not be able to come back.
Hu Zhongyuan smiled and looked at the knife in his hand.
On the battlefield, it is really the most tempering place.
A few years ago, I was addicted to wine and sex, and I was infatuated with the glitz of Qiantian Mountain. At that time, my ambitions were fading away, and I never thought about myself, when I stepped into the seventh level!
As for the elites of Gantian Headquarters, there are countless people breaking through their original realm these days.
Speaking of which, that person should have reached the peak of the eighth order by now!
"What are you afraid of? There are Blood Cloud Cavalry and Zong Yuan's iron cavalry. I don't believe that Jia Heluo dares to put all the real strong opponents with me."
When Chai Zhou heard the sound, he also looked aside. I saw a huge cavalry army standing quietly on a flat ground about tens of miles away.
There is no stone castle to cover it, no spiritual array to protect it. But it made the dozens of night demon army formations on the opposite side all look vigilant and ready to fight!
