This is just a heavy-duty team that has been attacked, but it also means that on this night there will be other teams that will be attacked by the army of the gods, and it will never be the only one.
Lin Muyu faintly felt a chill in his back, Gong Shangming seemed as if an unknown prophet would withdraw himself. How did he do it
"His Royal Highness, what should I do?"
Wei Qiu was a little dazed, standing in a pool of blood holding the Devouring Bow.
"We can't go directly to Cangnan Province." Lin Muyu's voice was very soft, and said: "Can't let the rest of the team be attacked, listen to my orders, release all the scouts, and the rest of them will follow me on the main road and cover from Dongshuang City along the way. The retreating team."
"Yes, the subordinates will do it!"
…
Until early in the morning, Lin Muyu's 10,000 pacers once again culled two of the two teams of the army who came to attack. However, there were too many people returning from Dongshuang City to Cangnan Province, and many teams along the way were affected. Attack, and not just the army, some business brigade teams are also attacked by the army of the gods.
Taxue's nose is constantly squirting, and running around all night has made it a little tired. It is even more so that other horses are not mentioned. Some horses have even foamed at the mouth, and must rest for a while, otherwise the entire team will collapse. Lose.
At this time, the sky was pattering with rain, an early summer rain.
Situ Xue held up a cyan oil-paper umbrella very much and stood! She stood beside Lin Muyu to block the rain, but Lin Muyu gently pushed her hand away and smiled bitterly: "Axue, no need, thank you, move now. Bar."
"Transfer..." Situ Xue blinked her eyes wide, "Where to transfer?"
"Everyone is tired. Go to the nearby villages to take a break, feed the horses, clean up and eat, otherwise many people will not be able to survive."
"Yes."
The rain is getting bigger and bigger, pouring on everyone's armor, but no one wants to avoid the rain, but winding through the muddy water and still maintaining the formation, this is the military might of the Gentian camp, replaced by a general local army , I am afraid that the lineup has long been scattered to avoid the rain.
Taxue's horseshoes walked along the pits, Lin Muyu looked up to the sky, a powerful breath was rushing towards Wu Tong, the ice palm.
"brush!"
With a ray of icy air falling in front of Lin Muyu, Ice Palm Wu Tong respectfully clasped his fists and said: "Heir, the subordinates have inquired about the direction of Dongshuang City, and Dongshuang City was occupied not long after we left yesterday. The occupiers are a group of cavalry regiments that call themselves the Army of Gods, with a number of about 30,000."
"Thirty thousand cavalry?" Lin Muyu frowned, "Are they doing anything else?"
"have."
Ice Palm Wu Tong said: "The subordinates found out that the leader of the Liuji Corps had also left the Luohekou Fortress with the fastest beast cavalry and heavy cavalry, and gathered with the cavalry of the Shenyi Army in Winter Frost City. In this way, they have about 100,000 cavalry. An hour ago, a large number of cavalry left Winterfrost City and rushed here."
"What are you talking about? They rushed here?"
"Yes!"
Lin Muyu frowned and stopped talking.
Wei Qiu whispered: "His Royal Highness, what do you guess Gong Shangming wants to do?"
This is what Lin Muyu is most reluctant to guess. Gong Shangming seems to have insight into everything. With every blow he has attacked his weakest position. Lin Muyu clenched his fist and said, "I'm afraid we can't go to Cangnan Province."
"Why?" Situ Sen and Situ Xue asked in astonishment.
"Because Gong Shangming wouldn't let us go."
Lin Muyu wiped the rain off his chin and said, "They gathered all the cavalry to kill us to the greatest extent before we rushed to Cangnan Province. If we continue to the direction of Cangnan Province... I am afraid we will arrive at Daojiang. There is not much left at the time of the steel protective wall. No, I can't go to Cangnan Province anymore."
"There is only one way." Wei Qiu squinted his eyes and said: "We gather all the army and the heavy-duty team, stand by and wait for the rabbits along the way, and fight them to the death. This may be able to force them back. Otherwise, we will only die. On the way to escape, our team was so scattered that it was so scattered that there was no way to fight back."
"No, there is another way."
"any solution?"
Lin Muyu looked to the south across the rain curtain, and said: "It is closer to the Qinling Mountains. Our walking speed is not fast, but once we enter the Qinling Mountains, this disadvantage does not exist. In the mountains, they are pure cavalry and us. The speed of mixed infantry and cavalry is the same. We walked along the Baimang Mountain into the volley province and directly arrived at Zhanlongguan. This is the only way to rendezvous with Xu Jiantao’s forces."
"But..." Wei Qiu frowned, "Zhanlong Pass now has not only Xu Jiantao, but also the exiled Angel Corps. I'm afraid this may not be the best choice, Your Highness."
"It's better than just waiting to die. It's okay, there's no need to discuss it."
Lin Muyu gently waved his hand: "After entering the village, take a break for three hours, and send out the feather script, ordering all the imperial troops around to gather together before retreating, and then go to Qinling together."
"Yes!"
…
Fortunately, the rain in this early summer only stopped for a short while. After the day was clear, two teams came together, one was Su Yu’s Qinlong Army, and the other was the Shenwei Camp of Zeng Yifan. The Qinlong Army has 8,000 troops left, and the Shenwei Camp also has more than 10,000 people. Together with Lin Muyu’s 10,000-step Longdan camp and part of the garrison of Winterfrost City, they quickly gathered around this small village. Forty thousand troops.
When the team set off, another sliver of team gathered along the way. It was another branch of the Longdan Battalion. There were more than 7,000 people in one unit, and the total number was close to 50,000.
But besides that, there were still a large number of civilians who were unwilling to leave, but many people stopped leaving when they saw King Qin's banner, and followed the team far away, unable to drive them away.
Situ Sen carried his sword and turned from the end of the team, whispering: "Your Majesty, the situation is not so good, these people in Winterfrost City and surrounding states and counties are unwilling to leave, what should we do? If you take them, The target is too big, and it will slow down our marching speed. How can this be good? Or... Subordinates will send cavalry to disperse them?"
"No."
Lin Muyu hurriedly raised her hand: "You can't be so arrogant. If we really do it, we won't even think about going back to Lingdong Province in the future."
"Then what to do?"
"Let me take a look."
"Yes!"
When Lin Muyu brought Wei Qiu, Situ Sen, Su Yu and others to the rear of the army, densely populated civilians followed from a distance. They dragged their families with their mouths, and some pushed wheelbarrows with dry food and some farm tools on them. Some drove donkey carts, all of them looked tired, many people's clothes were still soaked, and no one had avoided the heavy rain just now.
"King Qin!"
"It's His Royal Highness King Qin!"
"Hall of King Qin is down..."
The civilians recognized the King Qin, and quickly fell to the ground and knelt up. To the common people, King Qin was the only symbol of the Qin family. It was precisely because of him that Qin Jun had the courage to continue dealing with powerful enemies.
Lin Muyu turned to dismount, and said with a gentle expression: "Fathers, the 300,000 troops of the Tianji Empire are about to be killed here in no time. Lin Muyu is incompetent and a major general, unable to withstand the powerful enemy. You can only give up Lingdong, and you all escape. Go ahead, stop following the army, I swear, as long as I have a chance, I will lead the imperial army to fight back and regain lost ground."
An old man stood up tremblingly on crutches, and said: "His Royal Highness, we are already homeless. There are not only bandits, but also bandits and bullies on the mountain. If we don't follow Your Highness's army, I’m afraid it’s hard to escape... Your Majesty, no matter where you go, we are willing to follow you, please don’t abandon us..."
The others agreed together, and even howled and mourned.
Lin Muyu frowned. He was not a hypocritical person. He had never known these people before and had nothing to do with him, but he knew that if he refused such a request, then the Qin family would lose the spirit of the Lingdong people. With the support of the People’s Republic of China, it will be even more difficult to regain Lingdong.
He groaned and said loudly: "Everyone can follow along, but if you have the opportunity to live in a nearby village along the way, don't hesitate. Following me, I will be displaced and endured, and our army’s rations are already there. It’s not enough, I can’t give it to you anymore. I hope everyone can understand my difficulties and follow along, but the Imperial Army can no longer be dragged down by the people, otherwise we won’t even have the capital to make a comeback.”
"Yes, Your Highness, we all know!"
"His Royal Highness, we will never drag the army down!"
"Your Highness, please rest assured!"
The people are eloquent.
…
But in the evening, a beast cavalry from the Tianji Empire appeared on the horizon, and the people fled everywhere.
"Jie Jie..."
In the air, a black giant eagle is hovering, it is the wolf falcon of the Dragon Knight, and Gong Shangming must have found the main force of the imperial army. Wei Qiu raised his hand with an arrow, and directly shot the wolf falcon, but it seemed that there was no way to save it.
"They are here."
The spiritual scholar descended from the sky and said, "There are at least fifty thousand cavalrymen, and there are also nearly fifty dragon knights. I seem to have faintly felt the breath of the god emperor, and Bei Minghuan should be here too."
Wei Qiu pleaded: "His Royal Highness, let go for a fight, we can't just hide like this!"
"No."
Lin Muyu's voice was calm: "We don't have magic crystal cannons, nor too many magic heart arrows and white diamond arrows, and they have the elite army of the army of gods to join, let alone our current 50,000 patchwork army, even if it is. In its heyday, the 100,000 elite soldiers of the Longdan Battalion may not be able to beat them. They cannot fight and can only retreat. The order is passed. The whole army keeps marching speed to the Qinling Mountains, leaving behind the 2,000 men of the third battalion group to resist them."
Wei Qiu's voice trembled: "His Royal Highness, are you asking the two thousand brothers of the third battalion to die?"
Lin Muyu nodded, but did not deny it.
Situ Sen stood aside in amazement. After so many years, Lin Muyu has indeed changed. He is no longer so strong and fierce, but he has also become more calm and stable. Although he has changed, he is more qualified to serve in the three armed forces. The commander-in-chief is the only person who can turn the tide and turn things around.
Situ Xue saw Lin Muyu's clenched hand, her veins raging, her fingertips almost pierced herself, she couldn't help feeling distressed slightly, and said, "Your Royal Highness, let my brother pass the order..."
"Ok."
Lin Muyu patted Taxue's head and said, "Continue to maintain the marching speed, don't stop."
"Yes!"
…
In the sunset, a strand of two thousand infantrymen armed with heavy shields and spears left the formation. Under the command of the battalion control, they smashed the shields to the ground. The spears pierced from the gap between the shields, and a pair of eyes. Looking straight at the densely packed enemies in the distance, it was as if a steel wall was formed in this empty wilderness, but this steel wall was made of flesh and blood.
