Yan Liqiang was a little anxious. He knew that during the past few days when he was asleep, Shi Changfeng and Situ Feixing on the ground were going crazy because they had not found any trace of him.
According to his previous plan, they could only stay in the Snake God Tribe for five days at most. After sweeping the Snake God Tribe and the Mera Plain, they had to evacuate immediately and return to the Gulang Grassland. They must not be surrounded by the Black Jie people's army. Their chance, this is the essence of cavalry warfare. With strong mobility and elusive tactics, the enemy can always be in a passive position. As a cavalry archer, you must always ensure that you have the right to choose the battlefield and the right to fight. , which is a guarantee of victory.
But now, he has disappeared for ten days. If Shi Changfeng, Situ Feixing and others think that he has been killed, then his previous plan may be completely disrupted, and once the army he brought falls into the Black Jeremiah people In the quagmire of war, far away from the Han Empire, there is always the danger of destruction.
Completely mastering the Nine Dragons Seal made Yan Liqiang very excited, but thinking about the people he brought outside made Yan Liqiang feel a sense of urgency that he could not wait to put on his wings and fly out from here immediately.
After entering the huge hole at the bottom of the lake, the nine-headed giant snake led Yan Liqiang quickly forward in the underground waterway.
The water network and waterways under the surface of the Mera Plain are like a maze. Fortunately, the nine-headed giant snake has nine heads. It probably has a better memory. If it were another person, he would have been lost long ago. Of course, this is also Yan Liqiang is good at water and can hold his breath underwater for such a long time. If it were anyone else, even if he could ride a nine-headed giant snake, he probably wouldn't be able to leave here.
After swimming rapidly in the waterway for almost half an hour, the nine-headed giant snake changed its direction and finally rushed towards the ground with Yan Liqiang.
There seemed to be a lake above the waterway, a huge lake with rich water plants and many fish. However, when the nine-headed giant snake swam out of the dark underground waterway, the fish in the lake , all were so frightened that they fled in all directions.
"Wow..." The nine-headed giant snake finally emerged from the water with Yan Liqiang and saw the sunshine outside.
The weather is good today, it is a sunny day. When Yan Liqiang and the nine-headed giant snake surfaced from the water, looking at the position of the sun in the sky, it should be exactly noon. The lake is sparkling, and it seems that you can't see the edge at a glance. Standing on the nine-headed snake A giant snake's head blows the warm wind from the lake, giving it a special flavor.
Wait a minute...
In the warm wind blowing, Yan Liqiang seemed to hear some special sounds, like galloping horses and galloping horses. He looked toward the southeast of the lake, and his expression changed instantly, "Quickly, get there. Go aside…”
The huge nine-headed snake heard Yan Liqiang's order, its huge body swayed in the lake, cut through the waves, drew a long water line, and swam quickly towards the east side of the lake.
This lake is called Moon Lake, which is close to the gathering area of the snake god tribe. It is the second largest freshwater lake on the Mera Plain.
At this moment, on the southeastern shore of Moon Lake, a battle is about to begin.
The nearly 600,000-strong army gathered by the other two royal tribes of the Black Jie people formed a dark formation in the east. Looking around, the 600,000-strong army spread out on the plain, stretching for more than ten miles. The battle formation is enough to make people feel frightened.
The flags of the Black Jie people were waving in the army. In addition to the two royal tribes of the Eagle God Tribe and the Mountain God Tribe, there were also seventy or eighty small and medium-sized tribes that were originally attached to the Snake God Tribe. There were also many from before. The people who escaped from the snake god tribe also came back. Together, these people formed a large army.
Most of the Heijie people's army are infantry, and the number of cavalry is only more than 100,000, and they are of various types. In addition to rhinoceros horses, there are also many cavalry riding ordinary horses. The cavalry of the Mountain God Tribe is The most noteworthy thing about the horned deer is that there are many elephant soldiers in the Black Capricorn army. The elephant soldiers probably consist of more than two thousand war elephants. Each war elephant is covered with wood chips. armor, and a huge basket-like basket carried on the back of the war elephant. In each basket, there is an archer, a Black Capricorn man driving the war elephant, and a Black Capricorn man holding an extra-long spear. Warriors, the teeth of those war elephants are also equipped with sharp metal spikes...
At this moment, those war elephants were roaring, with an inexplicable restlessness.
The nobles of the Black Jieren Mountain God Tribe and the Eagle God Tribe were standing behind the elephant array, pointing together at the Han Empire troops arrayed in the distance. Normally the relationship between the two tribes was not harmonious, but this time Yan Liqiang led his troops to sweep across the Snake God tribe, but it was rare for the two tribes to unite to face the powerful enemy together.
The chief of the Mountain God Tribe brought his sons, as well as the high priest and war priest of the Mountain God Tribe, and a group of generals and nobles were here to command and watch the battle. The lineup of the Eagle God Tribe was almost similar. People on both sides looked at the big man in the distance. The army of the empire was talking a lot, and other figures such as leaders and clan leaders of small and medium-sized tribes were surrounding the nobles of these two tribes like stars and the moon, looking at them with eyes of shock, fear or hatred. The armies of the Han Empire arrayed in the distance.
…
At this time, in addition to the troops of Shi Changfeng and Situ Feixing, there were also 70,000 to 80,000 rangers and militia troops arrayed opposite the Black Jerome army. In total, there were more than 100,000 people in total, which was more than the Black Jeremiah army. The number of people is much smaller. Some of the other rangers and militiamen have already left the Mera Plain in the past two days. Others, although they are still in the Mera Plain, are far away at this time. They were observing the battlefield more than twenty miles away and did not dare to approach rashly. Shi Changfeng, Situ Feixing and others were not surprised by this. The news of the disappearance of the Governor had long been concealed. In the Ranger It spread among the people and the militia that in such a war, the rangers and the militia are not their subordinates, and they cannot order those people to do anything. At this time, as long as those who can stay are already huge to them With help, at least it can contain part of the strength and attention of the Black Capricorn army.
"Keep the rockets of the horse archers. After a while, when the elephant soldiers of the Black Jerkers come on stage, use more rockets to pay them. War elephants are afraid of fire. Once those rockets fall on the war elephants, their formation will There will be chaos in an instant, trampling on each other, and when their war elephants collapse, we will take the opportunity to kill them. These Black Jie people seem to be crowded, but except for the main force of the Mountain God Tribe and the Eagle God Tribe, everyone else is. Those who are fighting against the wind will definitely run faster than rabbits once the battle situation goes unfavorable, so we don’t need to be afraid... "
Those who were speaking were Situ Feixing, Shi Changfeng, Shi Dafeng and a group of big bosses across the northwest, all riding rhinoceros horses and gathering in front of the formation, observing the Black Jie people's incoming army and studying tactics.
"Master Situ is right. Although we are small in number, we are all cavalry. If we really want to fight, their infantry will be useless. I see that the Heijie people's military square formation is very loose and seems to have a lot of people. But they have been traveling continuously for the past few days, and the infantry soldiers of the Black Capricorns are definitely exhausted and do not have much fighting power!" Shi Changfeng nodded affirmatively, and then looked at Shi Dafeng, "How long will it take for the Snake God Palace to be fully restored? Clean it up?"
"Two days at most. As long as we can hold back the Black Capricorn army here for two days, there will definitely be news from the Snake God Palace..."
"We must win this battle..." Shen Teng also said firmly.
Several people were talking when suddenly, the sound of rapid horse hooves came from behind. A sergeant with a flag on his back rushed to the side of Shi Changfeng, Situ Feixing and others with a rhinoceros horse, a look on his face. With an expression of uncontrollable ecstasy, he said, "Report, we just found the entrance to an underground secret passage under a collapsed palace in the Snake God's Palace. We went in and took a look. The secret passage leads to the underground. In the secret At the end of the road, there is an underground cave. The cave extends for a long distance underground. The end of the cave collapsed and was blocked by many stones. We are cleaning it. At the same time, in the cave, we found the adult battle Footprints left by boots…”
Upon hearing the news, Shi Changfeng and others were instantly surprised and happy.
"Yes, that should be the case. Your Excellency is in the underground cave. Because the cave collapsed, he didn't come out for the time being..." Wu Daquan said loudly and happily.
"Master Shi, go back immediately and lead people to clean up the cave. Leave this place to me!" Situ Feixing said directly to Shi Changfeng.
Shi Changfeng glanced at Situ Feixing and did not refuse. Instead, he nodded sharply, "Okay, I'll leave this to Master Situ. I'll go back and have a look!" After saying this, Shi Changfeng turned the horse's head. He said loudly to the horse archers and the soldiers lined up behind him, "Just now news came from the Snake God Palace. Our people found traces of the guardian in the underground secret passage of the palace. You are still alive." , I am just temporarily trapped in the secret passage, and I will be able to come out soon... "
As soon as the soldiers in the queue heard the news, they burst into deafening cheers almost instantly. The cheers were louder and louder. The morale of the team, which was still a little dull, suddenly burned up and burst into flames.
…
"What are those Han armies cheering for?" In the Black Jie army, Umunda, the chief of the Mountain God Tribe, frowned and turned to look at Setuta, the chief of the Eagle God Tribe next to him.
Setuta smiled coldly, "No matter what those Han people are cheering for, we can't let them continue to be happy. I think we can order the war..."
Umunda nodded.
A few seconds later, the sound of horns sounded among the Black Jie people's army. At the sound of the horns, a hundred thousand Black Jie people infantry soldiers, holding shields, jumped out of the Black Jie people. The battle formation on the people's side, while slapping their shields with swords, moved towards Shi Changfeng's army. Behind these Black Jie soldiers and horses, there were almost 20,000 Black Jie people. The archers followed closely, and the 20,000 Black Capricorn cavalry moved to the two wings of the formation, approaching in small steps...
But at this moment, all the cavalry mounts in the Black Capricorn army, including the more than two thousand war elephants, suddenly became restless...
