Chapter 725 Chapter 725: Who are you looking for? (Part 2) [Requesting monthly votes]
The timing of Shen Tang’s move was very subtle.
She picked Tao Yan's vanguard troops to cross the middle of the Miaojiang River. There were still soldiers on the other side who had not yet entered the water, so she suddenly took action. If the leading troops are suddenly hit hard, the rear troops will inevitably flee in panic. If they want to retreat to the shore, they will be blocked by the people on the shore. The result is that people will be crowded, their feet will be trampled, and those who cannot get to the shore will be knocked into the water.
Ordinary soldiers cannot form a military formation and have no morale to use. The terrible thing is that the raft under their feet is all made up of morale. The time delay is too long. Once the morale that condenses the raft is exhausted, these people will all go into the water and become dumplings. In this situation, it would be difficult for ordinary soldiers to protect themselves, let alone organize a counterattack.
In comparison, those with martial spirit are relatively calm.
There are also many brave warriors under Tao Yan's tent. Although they are not strong enough to fight in the air for a short period of time, they can still fight back once or twice, barely holding on to the situation and not being defeated thousands of miles away.
The soldiers with spears had fun poking the enemies into the water. Seeing them turn around, the soldiers in charge of paddling the raft wanted to use their arms as humanoid turbines. As the archers greeted them with waves of arrows, the cold heart of the river was smeared with blood. If the enemy soldiers are not dead yet, there will be soldiers who will be responsible for the last hit after the raft gets close.
If this doesn’t stop them from dying, they will all be prisoners when cleaning up after the war.
In the midst of the chaos, one could faintly hear Feng’s stern curses.
“Stop everyone, don’t be crowded!”
"What a bunch of brainless bullies -"
"Follow the command of the military flag!"
The advance troops were attacked, and the rear did not know what happened, but then the front turned 180 degrees They turned around and retreated, but the rear didn't respond in time. The river blocked the boat and no one could reach the other side. The river is so vast, can't we retreat from both wings?
It’s just that Feng gave the order too late.
They want to retreat from both wings, is Shen Tang willing?
But faster than Shen Tang was a light white shadow.
Seeing this situation, Tao Yan knew that retreat was impossible because the rear was congested, rafts collided with each other, and soldiers couldn't maintain their balance and fell into the water. Blocked here, they happen to be within the range of Shen Tang's forces. They are completely a living target, so it is better to fight hard.
He pulled out his saber: "Kill back!"
"You, gentlemen, join us in killing the thief Shen!"
Feng and Tao Yan had different views. Even if we counterattack, we have to wait for the army to withdraw to the shore before fighting. We are too passive on the river. But her opinion was ultimately no match for Tao Yan's order. Feng could only look in the direction of the other side bitterly.
Regardless of the outcome of this battle, as an ordinary person, her life would be in danger if she stayed in the middle of the river, and she accidentally fed the fish.
“Withdraw!”
Feng ordered his personal guards to escort him back. These two personal guards were both brave warriors with low cultivation levels. They could cope with some small scenes, but they couldn't protect her at all in this kind of situation. The guard did as he was told, but Tao Yan had no idea about it.
"Shen - You - Li - come out and fight!"
The sound waves broke through the clouds, and every word contained hatred.
"You're not worthy!"
The visitor came on driftwood, as light and ethereal as a ghost.
Before Tao Yan could clearly see the appearance of the person coming, two sword lights pierced down from the top of his head, and the target was his Tianling Gai. Tao Yan, however, was unhurried and did not dodge or dodge. He only heard two soft clanging sounds of metal hitting each other. The incoming general was pushed back several feet.
But the opponent just retreated on the surface of the water and dragged out a wave of water until his heel firmly stepped on a piece of driftwood. After a moment of strength, he came back up again. It was vaguely visible that the person coming was a slightly tall and lean general, holding a pair of swords.
This person is naturally Bai Su, the general under Shen Tang.
Her presence is indispensable wherever military achievements can be made.
If Tao Yan’s head can be cut off this time——
Thinking of this, she narrowed her eyes slightly, and her usually quiet blood began to gradually heat up and boil. The sharp edges of the two swords in her hands were touching the blood Desire climbs to the top. Tao Yan saw that he was innocent and cultivated, and immediately blushed with anger: "How dare you be so presumptuous as a mere brat!"
He shouted: "Come here, behead this kid!"
Cries of murder and screams could be heard from the river.
Shen Tang built a tent with his hands to watch the battle, pointed to Jiang Xin and said: "Come! Give this evil dog Tao Shenyu a wave of technology and hard work!"
Gu Chi's eyes always fell on a position on the front line, listening to Only when Lu Ji made a puzzled "Ah" did he look away, and diligently acted as a humanoid simultaneous translator: "Master The public's intention was to ask the archers to prepare rockets and burn their rafts."
Lu Ji understood now and clasped his fists: "I will accept the order."
Shen Tang said: "No. Go down and collect some war merits?”
She remembered that her brave warriors were quite warlike.
The enemy's head is their military merit.
Lu Ji said distressedly: "I'm not good at water fighting."
It's not that she doesn't know how to use water, but her water ability can only barely survive drowning. The most important thing is that the weapon she is good at is A pair of heavy hammers covered with spikes. The two ends of the heavy hammer handles are connected by ghost-mouthed iron chains. It weighs a terrifying two hundred and forty pounds.
The weight plus the weight of the armor plus the weight of the hammer...
How can a simple raft be sustained?
In order to allow the raft to carry more people, everyone only wore a few armor accessories when crossing the river, and then turned into full armor when they reached the shore. Lu Ji's cultivation level is not enough to support her on the water as if she were walking on flat ground. She has the intention to perform meritorious service but the conditions do not allow her to do so.
After hearing this, Shen Tang no longer pressed.
Gu Chi asked her: "Master, why don't you go and meet Tao Shenyu?"
Shen Tang raised his eyebrows and asked: "Is Tao Shenyu, a noob, worthy of me killing him myself? Alas, Being invincible means being lonely, so stay a little longer Give the broth to the young people below. The protagonist this time should not be me, it should be Wei Yuanyuan. As the lord, I am their greatest confidence by supervising the battle."
She said this. I'm really not bragging.
Shen Tang brought 30,000 people over this time and selected more than 10,000 elites to follow her deep into Qianzhou behind enemy lines. Among the high-end combatants, she only took Wei Shou away, leaving Chu Jie behind to cooperate with Kang Shi.
Wei Shou was a fifteenth-level junior high-ranking officer, and there was no one in Tao Yan's army who was stronger than him. We also had an unexpected advantage. Under these conditions, Wei Shou could not suppress Tao Yan's top generals... This only proved that Wei Shou, a fifteenth-level junior, was very talented.
In summary, this can be regarded as the first serious battle after Wei Shou surrendered. The most important thing is that Shen Tang allocates additional military salary allocations based on military merit. With outstanding performance and outstanding military exploits, more military salary budget will be allocated in the next quarter.
The opposite is also true.
Shen Tang looked at the battle situation and muttered: "If Wei Yuanyuan does not perform well, I will go back and file a complaint with Wuhui..."
She thought so, and so did Wei Shou.
This battle is not only to avenge Gu Chi and eliminate a hidden danger, but also to establish Wei Shou's power and quickly integrate into his own camp. However, as the saying goes, it is better to be judged by God than by man.
While the battle between the two sides was raging, no one noticed a huge long shadow quietly approaching under the dark water of the Miao River.
Ding——
One hit and the metal collided and it ended.
Bai Su had always kept his eye on Tao Yan, so his generals would not allow it. At first, one person was sent to intercept and kill Bai Su, but they underestimated Bai Su's physical skills. He was wearing martial arts armor and his cultivation level was not very high. He was able to use the scattered driftwood on the river to gain a foothold and move forward and retreat as if walking on the flat ground. On the other hand, the brave warrior on Tao Yan's side was more embarrassed. Although his strength was slightly better than that of Bai Su, Bai Su couldn't do anything on the battlefield on the river. Instead, he was forced into danger several times by Bai Su, and the river water wet his whole body.
But at least Tao Yan was protected by them unscathed.
"Come here, stay alive!"
[Come like thunder to collect wrath! 】
【Just like the clear light of the river and the sea! ] As soon as the two swords came out, there was thunder.
She was like a wisp of green smoke floating on the river. The sword moves in her hands were sharp and swift, and the sword energy she swung intertwined into a dragnet. The sword energy collided with the target, and the surrounding water surged again. The failed sword energy tore the raft into powder under the general's feet.
"Get out of your way, all those who are an eyesore!" Every time she saw Tao Yan being blocked when she approached, Bai Su also became angry, but soon she changed her mind and set her target on the raft at their feet. above. Wait until they fall into the water and then beat up the drowned dog!
“Ahhhh——”
Before Bai Su could take any action, another strange phenomenon appeared on the surface of the water.
The enemy soldiers screamed and fell into the beast's mouth.
Under the cover of night, a green beast suddenly jumped out from the water with its huge mouth open. The beast's shadow has a square and wide mouth, densely packed with sharp teeth, its body has sharp edges and corners, it is covered in scales, its limbs are thick, and its tail is long and flat. Looks like a dragon but not a dragon, looks like an insect but not an insect.
The tail is even stronger and more flexible than its body size. As soon as it jumped out of the water, it swung its long tail and threw its head towards the enemy. The lucky general who was selected only had time to raise his arms, and with a click, his wristbands shattered and deformed. His body seemed to be hit head-on by a hill, and he flew backwards, crashing through dozens of rafts, and finally sank into the water with a bang...
This is a giant blue crocodile.
It is so big that it makes people feel chilled when it floats on the water.
Suddenly, a brave young warrior fell from the sky, with his feet on the back of a giant green crocodile, and a long weapon in one hand.
Grind and said: "With such excitement, how can I be without myself?"
Bai Su lowered his gaze by three points.
It coincides with one eye of the giant cyan crocodile. She pursed her lips slightly, suppressing some strange emotion - she also wanted such a mighty and fierce totem of courage that could be used on land and water.
Xun Ding obviously didn't notice that his colleagues standing on the raft were envious of him. He chose his target and thrust out his weapon: "General Bai, the enemy general's head, whoever can get it, don't blame me!"
Bai Su came back to his senses after hearing this.
There was a sense of nervousness in my heart that my military achievements were falling by the wayside.
He shouted: "It's still unclear who will win!"
This was probably the most popular night in Tao Yan's life. Xun Ding and Bai Su competed for him, and Wei Shou, a heavyweight general, also joined the battlefield after dealing with the rotten fish and shrimps blocking the road. In this situation, Tao Yan could still pretend to be calm at first, but when he saw Wei Shou appearing, his face turned pale, and he pretended to be calm and ordered to withdraw.
The generals under the tent looked at each other, and the division of labor was instantly clear.
However, before Tao Yan's escort had retreated very far, the water on the path suddenly formed frost, followed by a bit of icy blue light that pierced toward the center of his eyebrows. The military officers escorting Tao Yan also took action when they saw this. The incoming man intercepted him and took a closer look.
Tao Yan has some impressions of this person.
Everything is connected in a flash of lightning.
Immediately, he was filled with hatred and anger.
What a good Shen Youli, what a good Huang Xiguang, these two people are in cahoots with each other, and they have long been harmful to their own thoughts. It's a pity that he was kept in the dark by the two people's hypocritical performance! No wonder Tao Yan had this idea, because the general who blocked their escape was none other than Huang Lie's young commander, Yun Ce? This person is accompanied by cold ice and snow when he makes a move, and his characteristics are very obvious, making it difficult to recognize his mistake.
"Yun Yuanmou!"
Tao Yan shouted out this son's identity.
Yun Ce said humbly and politely: "Mr. Tao."
The two of them were separated by the light of the fire, and there was a fire behind them. The fire, the figure, the scream, the fall into the water... Tao Yan did not expect that I would be so embarrassed. This scene reminded him of the scene many years ago when the country was destroyed and the family was destroyed. The maids and servants in the mansion screamed and ran away from the attacking enemies. The long-lost embarrassment surged into his heart, accompanied by doubled anger.
“Even you stopped me! Huang Xiguang is so good!”
Tao Yan gritted his teeth bitterly.
“He actually colluded with Shen Youli and plotted against me!”
Yun Ce originally wanted to say that this matter had nothing to do with his lord, and was all Shen Jun’s plan. Then I thought about it, no one believed me even if I told the truth. His answer to Tao Yan was to draw out his gun and drive away the troops trying to break through with one shot. The general was considered loyal to Tao Yan. When he saw that he was defeated by Yun Ce, he shouted:
"My lord, go first!"
He was prepared to delay Yun Ce with his life and buy time for Tao Yan. . This place is not too far from the shore, and Tao Yan, as a brave warrior, can break through and get ashore. As long as they get to the shore, integrate the remaining troops and retreat, they will have a chance to make a comeback in the future.
However, the next moment——
Wei Shou descended from the sky and slapped him away, not forgetting to curse: "Damn, the big fish almost escaped!"
This happened! If Chu Liangliang knew about it, he would still be laughed to death!
Yun Ce put away his gun when he saw this.
Wei Shou came, and Tao Yan couldn't escape. Even Wei Shou himself thought so. However, people are not as good as God. Tao Yan didn't care before Wei Shou took action and the general was about to cut off his queen. Regardless of the obstacles blocking his way, he desperately fled to the shore.
Wei Shou grinned: "Are you running away?"
Let's see where you can escape!
Just at this moment of hesitation, water pillars rose to the sky under Tao Yan's feet, and a large fish with a transparent body and black body, except for its two gills and belly that were white, jumped out of the water. He let out a strange cry at Tao Yan, and shook off his wet tail.
Tao Yan, who had escaped a few steps, was photographed again.
Crack!
Wei Shou raised his hand and grabbed the back of his collar.
Everyone looked at the big fish again, but its figure had dispersed.
Wei Shoudao: "Whose martial courage totem is that?"
As a new member, he recognized half of the people under Shen Tang's account, and could barely name people and names. On the contrary, as for what the opponent's courage totem is, I don't know. The big fish just lasted for such a short time...
Obviously it was the courageous totem that had just awakened.
Yun Ce shook his head: "I don't know."
He knew no more about Shen Tang's tent than Wei Shou.
Wei Shou is one of our own after all, there is no need to avoid him, he will know sooner or later, but Yun Ce is not qualified as a temporary worker.
“Never mind, it’s not important.”
Tao Yan, who was dizzy and disheveled in his hands, looked as proud as a fisherman who caught a big fish.
"As long as the person is caught, he is still alive."
Wei Shou's mind was already beginning to make plans.
How much money can Tao Yan’s head cost?
No one noticed that after the big fish disappeared, Bai Su's face was so white that it was almost transparent, and his Dan Mansion's martial energy was empty. If it weren't for his strong core strength, he might have fallen from the driftwood into the water.
