Chapter 847: Return trip (4)

Views:

At this moment, Taiguan wanted to tear his chief sentry officer into pieces!

The heavy Tianji chariots had not been used before, but the crossbow formation had to focus on strafing the blue-scaled demon guards on both wings. At this time, they wanted to clear out the miscellaneous demons as quickly as possible, and then retreat eastward as a whole, so they took advantage of the main force of the elite demon soldiers before they could attack. He left twelve heavy Tianji chariots and armored cavalry to rear.

The array master who presided over the demon-slaying battle formation had also given up on protection and controlled the giant blade condensed by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to slash wildly into the demon formation.

Because the demons gathered too many miscellaneous demons in the Tianluo Valley, Jiang Yuwei and her people broke into pieces and wore blood-scale armor to enter and exit the Tianluo Valley to transport supplies to the predetermined ambush location, all of which were successfully hidden from the sight of the demons.

The numerical advantage of the magic soldiers is too great, and the terrain inside the broken valley is too open. The shield soldiers and the two heavy spear formations can only build a thousand-step wide defense line in front of the heavy crossbow formation. , but there is still more than 2,000 steps of space on both wings, allowing more soldiers and horses of the demon tribe to directly pass through | and directly attack the Chinese army's battle formation behind with heavy-bore crossbows.

However, at this moment, the Black Wind Army suddenly started to advance eastward with five to six thousand troops!

At this time, Sha Tianhe saw a large number of wooden boxes containing Xuanyang Chongfeng arrows stored at the entrance of the cave. He suspected that these more than a thousand soldiers and horses had gone back and forth more than once or twice.

Chen Hai knew that when they entered the Demon Realm and encountered the elites of the Demon Clan, the location of the heavy-bore crossbow would definitely become the target of concentrated attack by the Demon Clan elite, so he loaded the heavy-bore crossbow on the heavy Tianji chariot.

If we retreat at this time, the entrance of the broken valley is so narrow. How many of the more than 20,000 demon soldiers and more than 10,000 crazy monsters who have entered the broken valley can escape in the end

The miscellaneous demons were too dense. In order to consume the crossbow arrow reserves of the Black Wind Army, four to five thousand miscellaneous demons were driven away at one time. They rushed over like a black tide and stirred up flying dust all over the sky. With only forty heavy-bore crossbows, it was impossible to defeat them at all. It is impossible to shoot down all these monsters in just forty or fifty seconds of charging time.

The brand-new heavy-bore crossbows, under the sunlight and in the cold winter, emitted a cold light, as if they were like ice picks, inserted into the Taiguan's chest.

This place is too close to the core of Tianluo Valley. Not to mention the winged demons flying in the sky, there are countless demon spies hidden in the mountains. Not to mention thousands of soldiers and horses, there are dozens of humans with low cultivation in the spirit realm. , it is impossible to go around from the north side to the rift valley and ambush.

It was the first time in tens of thousands of years that Tianluo Valley was recaptured by Jiang Yin. At that time, two to three million soldiers and horses from the northwest region marched northward, with numerous large and small magic formations. Jiang Yin directly used a large number of magic formations to eliminate the poisonous miasma in Tianluo Valley. Suppressed by the magic mist, it will naturally annihilate the remaining demon soldiers hiding in Tianluo Valley.

Yes, the black chariot was slightly knocked into one level and slid back a foot, but it was still a thousand miles away from the overturn that Demon Lord Shuyue expected.

Taiguan had suffered a lot at Beiling Fortress over the years. He knew clearly that half a stick of incense was enough time for three hundred heavy-bore crossbows to shoot a million Xuanyang heavy-edge arrows.

In the front line, the frenzied demons, demon soldiers, and the elite demon cavalry that rushed in from both wings fell to the ground like harvesting rice under the fire of four to five thousand heavy-pointed arrows at each breath. At this time, not only sixteen heavy tanks, but also thirty or forty heavy-bore crossbows advanced directly into the chaotic formation of demon soldiers, crushing the conflicts and shooting wildly. Two groups of four-pillar demon-slaying formations also transformed spiritual shields into giant demon-slaying swords. , slashing vertically and horizontally, each sword will take away the lives of several or even ten demon soldiers...

The supplies could have been hidden in batches many years ago, but it is impossible for these more than a thousand ambush soldiers to have been hiding here for several years. How did they hide from their warnings and hide in this cave silently

Before Demon Lord Shu Yue made any move, a miscellaneous demon had already bumped into him.

At that time, the Wu family's 20,000 elite private soldiers, protected by several groups of demon-slaying chariots, and with countless mysterious treasures and Taoist talismans, failed to break through the Black Wind Army's deployment of 300 heavy-bore crossbows in Quyan Valley. line of defense!

Not daring to be careless at all, he borrowed all the blood-refined witches and demons from the Taiguan, and let them ride on the back of the winged demons to catch up.

Behind them, more than two thousand Rakshasa Demon Riders ignored the life and death of the stray monsters left behind. They just rushed towards the broken valley with their hooves and trampled them to pieces.

"Who said it's meaningless?!" Chen Hai's solemn face in the audience today suddenly smiled, making Sha Tianhe look slightly dazed. The next moment, he heard the cliff not far behind him collapse, revealing a At the dark cave entrance, you can see a large group of blood-scale demons standing in the cave.

Demon Lord Shuyue was still worried that Chen Hai and other leaders of the Black Wind Army might take that floating battleship and suddenly break out of the encirclement southward.

In fact, countless people have never thought that as long as the sealing properties of the armor sewn from the blood demon scales are good enough, mid-to-late Tongxuan realm disciples who have cultivated their spiritual veins and entered the realm of inner breathing can wear fully sealed blood demon armors. A enters Tianluo Valley.

There are too many demon soldiers and crazy miscellaneous demons, and the terrain in the broken valley is open, but not open enough. The remaining 1,400 to 500 armored elite cavalry cannot play their role in interspersing, but even if the terrain is open enough, the elite demons of the demon clan If there are more riders, it will only accelerate the collapse of the battle formation here.

And it's only recessed a little bit. How thick is the carriage board made by Xuanyang Jingtie

"Idiot, why are you retreating? Send all the troops to fight!" Shu Yue used his magic thoughts to shout directly to Taiguan. In his opinion, Taiguan and him would use all the elite troops on hand, regardless of casualties. If you put money on it, you may not be able to win.

When Sha Tianhe scratched his head and was shocked and delighted, Jiang Yuwei took off his face armor and ordered every four generals to carry a heavy-bore crossbow and quickly enter the position!

When Chen Hai first established himself in Beiling Fortress, he helped Jiang Yuwei build Tianji chariots to strengthen his combat power. However, due to the shortage of Xuanyang fine iron, he mainly built light Tianji chariots weighing 20,000 to 30,000 kilograms to coordinate with the defense of Beiling Fortress. It was only in recent years that the construction of heavy-duty Tianji chariots was started. In recent years, Taiguan has been hiding in Tianluo Valley and dared not go out to fight. He is unaware of the latest development of Tianji war machinery in Beiling Sai.

Three hundred heavy-bore crossbows were added to the battle formation, which increased the intensity of heavy-bore crossbow attacks in the Chinese army's battle formation tenfold.

These black chariots are not dragged by camels, horses or spiritual beasts. I heard from the official that they are driven by a kind of heavenly war machinery. But other than that, they are not much different from the human race's fine bronze chariots and dark iron chariots. the difference.

"Let's go!" Taiguan Xue Pu almost burst out of his eyes at this moment, and he roared to the sky unwillingly.

Wu Qing retreated to the ashen-faced Taiguan. The knotted muscles in his body twisted continuously, and with a few puffs, he squeezed out sixteen or seventeen Xuanyang heavy-edge arrows. Although the injury could not be said to be serious, it was still serious. The scales are open.

There were towering stone cliffs standing on both sides of the gentle slope, shrinking the entrance of the valley to only five or six hundred paces wide. The crazy monsters had no formation to speak of, so they just crowded into a ball and rushed into the broken valley.

On the one hand, Taiguan sent a messenger to Qingsong Ridge, 1,300 miles away in the east wing, and sent an order to the demon soldiers responsible for intercepting there. He immediately sent four thousand demon cavalry and four hundred winged demons from the east wing at the fastest speed. On the one hand, they mobilized all 20,000 elites from Fengmen Valley, and at the same time drove a large number of miscellaneous demons to chase east, so that they could act as human shields for the elite demon soldiers at any time.

Although the Tianji chariots and armored cavalry loaded with heavy-bore crossbows were safely withdrawn, the two groups of demon-slaying chariots also deployed the four-pillar demon-slaying battle formation according to their respective positions, and the shield-halberd and spear-breaking spear soldiers were in position. , huge shields interlocked with each other and supported by short halberds to form a shield wall.

"What a heavy lump of iron!" Demon Lord Shuyue was confident that he could cut off the black chariot with one strike, but he did not expect that the mad ape could not knock over a black chariot with such a fast impact speed. go out

Wu Qing and Wu Etu were unwilling to withdraw, and rushed into two waves with thousands of crazy demons and elite demon soldiers. However, Xuanyang's arrow rain suddenly became denser, and it was seven to eight times denser at once. Wu Qing, Wu'etu persisted for ten breaths, but was still forced to retreat.

Since the human race has only had one experience in dealing with the special poisonous miasma and demonic fog in Tianluo Valley in tens of thousands of years, everyone thought that except for the elite disciples with Gangyuan body protection, ordinary soldiers could only rely on the spiritual formations formed by magic circles or defensive talismans. Only with the shield can one enter Tianluo Valley.

Zhu Mingwei, Wei Han and others were all staring at the two thousand demon cavalry at this time, and ordered the soldiers manipulating the heavy-bore crossbows to ignore the crazy demons, and handed over less than a thousand crazy demons to the shield and halberd. The soldiers and the heavy spear formation of Breaking Edge were used to block the attack, while the heavy crossbows focused on preventing the elite demon cavalry from launching a charge from the flanks.

The Black Wind Army naturally didn't care how Tai Guan felt. At this time, in the entire position, although there were no large cheers, Chen Hai could directly feel the Black Wind Army's excitement through the strength of the killing force. High morale.

Soon a group of crazy monsters came up from the gentle slope at the north entrance of the broken valley.

"boom!"

Huge blood flowers burst out and spread on the battlefield. Zhu Mingwei, Wei Han, Mo Zhai and others have completely given up using spiritual swords and magic weapons that consume huge amounts of spiritual energy to defend against the enemy. Instead, they hold halberds and spears and join ordinary soldiers. , to ensure that the front line is not easily broken through and defeated by the demon soldiers.

It is a seemingly bulky demon ape. The demon body is more than six meters tall and looks like an iron tower. The tough scales on its body have been torn apart by Xuanyang's arrow rain, and it is bloody like a cannonball. Hitting the front of a black chariot, Demon Lord Shuyue thought to himself that even an iron lump would be crushed in.

When Chen Hai was in Yanzhou, he initially manufactured blood scale armor in large quantities and led his elite troops into the Blood Mist Demonic Abyss to eliminate the demon clan's pioneer troops, delaying the outbreak of the demonic calamity for several years!

The remaining thousands of miscellaneous demons in the first wave were all shot to pieces with heavy-bore crossbows. The Shuyue Demon Lord did not expect to severely damage the thousands of human armored knights, but he only needed to shoot those loaded with heavy-bore crossbows from the side. When the black chariot overturned, he was able to lead the two thousand elite winged demons behind him to pounce on them, swoop down from mid-air, and tear the more than a thousand human armored cavalry into pieces, completely losing the ability of human soldiers and horses to quickly maneuver and counterattack.

The advantage of the number of demon soldiers is still too much, which allows the demon soldiers to go around to the north or even to the east when pursuing, and attack the Black Wind Army that is rapidly retreating eastward. In the end, the Black Wind Army is forced to retreat to the east of Fengmen Valley. In a broken valley sixty miles away.

The Taiguan respected his identity and had been supervising the battle from behind. At this time, he saw that the Black Wind Army's defense formation was about to collapse, and he felt very happy.

At this moment, unless Demon Lord Shu Yue can sacrifice himself, at the cost of his life, withstand the offensive of all the powerful men of the Black Wind Army, and directly break into the heavy-bore crossbow formation, Taiguan still has the confidence to win, otherwise he will retreat at this time , although the loss is serious, it can still ensure that the vitality is not damaged...

Taiguan's devil eyes also widened.

As wooden boxes filled with Xuanyang heavy front arrows were brought up, the front line of the Black Wind Army was filled with an increasingly violent torrent of metal.

In addition to the narrow entrance of the valley, the internal terrain of the broken valley is quite open. Taiguan is not sure why the Black Wind Army does not hold on to the entrance of the valley. He guesses that the Black Wind Army may have given up struggling, and leaders such as Chen Hai may give up their ordinary generals at any time and disperse. There was no point in organizing a defense at the mouth of the valley if they escaped or concentrated on that floating battleship.

Seeing this scene, the new recruits, who had just joined the battalion less than half a year ago and had experienced a bloody battle before, felt their hearts tightening and their hands and feet sweating. It was hard to imagine that they had any hope of making it out of this battle alive.

What made him ecstatic was not the more than a thousand reinforcements, but the nearly 300 heavy-bore crossbows that the more than a thousand reinforcements were carrying on their shoulders, which would fill the position at any time.

The only possibility that Sha Tianhe could think of at this moment was that these more than a thousand soldiers and horses entered Tianluo first from near the wild peach forest in the south of Tianluo Valley, with the help of the underground cave that stretched for four to five hundred miles underground where he had established his foothold. Valley, and then entered the Broken Valley from Tianluo Valley to ambush.

Just when passing through Tianluo Valley, how did more than a thousand soldiers and horses resist the erosion of the poisonous miasma and the demonic mist without being discovered by the demons

How much does this black chariot weigh

It's just that the murderous nature in the blood of the miscellaneous demons has been completely inspired by the witches and demons using secret methods. They don't know pain and are not afraid of life and death. There is only one thought in their chests, which is to kill, even if their cheeks and chests are torn open by arrows. , arms and thighs were broken by arrows, but as long as they didn't take their last breath, they were still charging forward desperately.

The chief officer glanced coldly at Shu Yue, who was forty miles away. Two thousand winged demons flew over from the snowy peak forty miles away to join the battle group. Although they might not even need half a stick of incense, the problem was that there were so many of them. Demon soldiers and crazy demons are all crowded inside the valley mouth. Can they hold up half a stick of incense without collapse

What is this concept

After Chen Li defeated Shu Yue Demon Lord's troops, he went straight to Fengmen Gate, because he knew that only in this way could the Taiguan lead his elite demon soldiers to wait for work here, instead of leading the elite demon soldiers to wait for work. The soldiers went into the depths of the wilderness to hunt them down.

Whether it is the elite disciples using Gang Yuan to protect their bodies, or ordinary generals using magic circles or Taoist talismans to protect their bodies, as long as they enter Tianluo Valley, their completely different and strange aura will be difficult to detect by the powerful demons.

Because the demons would never have thought that the ambush came from inside Tianluo Valley.

Twelve heavy-duty Tianji chariots roared and collided, instantly scattering the last thousand or so crazy monsters in the first wave. Blocking the momentum of these crazy monsters and disrupting them, the armored elite detachment By intersecting in circuitous ways, the speed of killing miscellaneous demons will be much faster.

Sha Tianhe was startled, and he used the Blood Spirit Sword to slash into the cave. Chen Hai smiled and said, "Master Sha, why did you attack our reinforcements without asking about the facts?"

The reason why Chen Hai chose the interior of the Broken Valley as the preset decisive battle site was because of the special terrain of the Broken Valley, which was wide and narrow, making it convenient for a large number of magic soldiers to pour in and set up formations. In fact, they were stepping into the trap he set, and at the same time, they were able to limit the number of demon soldiers. The speed at which the demon soldiers are escaping can be used to kill as many demon soldiers as possible with a heavy-bore crossbow!

In the view of Demon Lord Shuyue, if Chen Hai and other leaders of the Black Wind Army try to cross the Tianluo Valley in a floating warship to the south, he may not be completely sure to intercept them with two thousand elite winged demons, but really At that time, even if the blood-refining witch demon draws the energy and blood essence from the elite demon soldiers or even his blue-scale guards or elite wing demons, he will still use the blood-refining demon array to intercept the floating battleship.

"The boss has already made arrangements here!" After Sha Tianhe followed Chen Hai, he also cherished his wings. If the situation was not desperate, he would not persuade Chen Hai to abandon the ordinary soldiers and escape. Unexpectedly, the so-called desperate situation of the broken valley, actually Everything was planned by Chen Hai, who asked ecstatically, "Master, how did you hide the demons from the eyes and deploy an ambush right under their noses!"

The demon soldiers ambushing in Fengmen Valley can be said to have come out in full force at this moment. The overwhelming wing demons and the raging demon tide followed the demon clan's forward troops, shortening the distance from the Black Wind Army to twenty miles. Within, hold on tight.

Only when Sha Tianhe focused his eyes did he see clearly where the blood-scale demons were in the cave. They were all elites of the human race whose entire bodies, including their heads and faces, were covered in blood-scale armor.

The Black Wind Army hid more than a thousand ambush troops and 300 heavy-bore crossbows here. How could they not notice it at all

After preparing everything, Taiguan began to launch an offensive, driving groups of crazy monsters, mixed with a small number of elite demon soldiers, to attack the Black Wind Army's defense line, and a bloody battle broke out again.

The two demons Wu Qing and Wu'etu did not follow Demon Lord Shuyue, and the Qinglin Guards could no longer be consumed, but Demon Lord Shuyue had to contribute to this battle, and these two demons were filled with black energy. Directly followed by a small number of elite demon soldiers, mixed with a large number of crazy miscellaneous demons, they wandered in front of the human formation. As long as they found an opening, the demon halberd that was several feet long swept across, killing several Xuanyang fine iron objects at every turn. The forged heavy shield and the generals behind the heavy shield were blasted into pieces and crumbs.

Some seriously injured soldiers were not willing to be surrounded at the rear. They tried their best to carry stones, assisted the craftsmen in the baggage camp, took out the accessories of the catapult crossbow, and then quickly cut down the huge trees and threw the six catapults. The stone crossbow was assembled and set up in the formation together with the super heavy-bore crossbow...

Sha Tianhe put away the Blood Spirit Sword and walked to Chen Hai. He stared at Chen Hai with his bloodshot eyes and conveyed his thoughts: "If we fight to the last man, we may win. Even if I, Sha Tianhe, die on the battlefield today, I will never shrink my head, but as the master, there is no point in continuing to fight. Let’s find a way to break out! Keep the green hills, don’t worry about running out of firewood!”

Once the Xuanyang heavy front arrows are used up and they lose the sharp weapon that consumes the most effective force of the demon soldiers, how long can they finally rely on the Tiantian Xuanlei formation and the two four-pillar demon-slaying formations

Demon Lord Shuyue also held the Nine Yin Evil Blade tightly in his hand at this time. Even if more than a thousand miscellaneous demons broke through the human crossbow array and entered the human battle array to create enough chaos, then, Two thousand blue-scale guards, two thousand elite winged demons, and four thousand demon cavalry deployed on the northwest side of Fengmen Valley will be able to defeat the thousands of black wind soldiers and horses that have been entangled with them for more than ten days in the next wave of offensive. Annihilate them all without leaving any consequences.

When the main force of the elite demon soldiers came out from various positions, the troops at the rear of the palace almost completely cleared away the crazy monsters, and then slowly withdrew eastward in a defensive formation.

However, Sha Tianhe fell into huge shock and confusion at the same time.

Sha Tianhe, Mo Zhai, and Zhu Mingwei all looked ugly. They had a chance to break through before, but now they are forced into a desperate valley, with cliffs of two to three thousand feet high to their left and right and behind them. Do they have to imitate Jiang? Ding, Jiang Han and other sect disciples abandoned ordinary soldiers and a large number of war weapons here, and they scattered and fled for their lives

Even if the thirty-six blood demon corpses were not on the Xuanlei battleship, there was no way Taiguan and Demon Lord Shuyue could watch the five or six thousand human elites withdraw under their noses.

However, looking at the demon soldiers pouring in like a black tide, Sha Tianhe didn't think that six stone-throwing crossbows were of any use in killing thirty or fifty more miscellaneous demons or elite demon soldiers; ordinary soldiers might still be kept in the dark. , but he and the generals at Zhu Mingwei's level knew that the previous consumption was too huge, and they had less than 100,000 Xuanyang heavy front arrows left in their hands.

How on earth does this happen? Is it related to the armor they wear made of blood demon scales

How could it be possible that the Black Wind Army would unpreparedly give up its flank and let them attack

Later, Jiang Yin was ordered to abandon Tianluo Valley, leaving only a part of his troops to garrison in Mo Zhangling.

The heavy-bore crossbow roared, and the raging rain of arrows was like a metal storm, shrouding the tens of thousands of crazy monsters that rushed towards them, tearing their scales and skin, and tearing apart their muscles, bones, flesh, and blood. Caught in a completely crazy killing spree.

Groups of demon soldiers entered the Broken Valley like a tide. Demon Lord Shuyue also led two thousand elite wing demons, dozens of demon dragons, and dozens of blood-refined witch demons, and stopped in the snow thirty or forty miles away from the south side of the Broken Valley. Above the ridge, it directly blocked the possibility of Chen Hai and other leaders of the Black Wind Army to break out of the encirclement south by floating warships.

The broken valley is forty or fifty miles deep, but to reach the end of the broken valley, one has to cross hundreds of miles of steep peaks before reaching the northern edge of Tianluo Valley.

The powerful soldiers holding strong shields in the front line shouted one by one, with veins on their necks exposed, and finally blocked the first wave of impact. Soldiers holding special spears weighed two to three hundred kilograms. The heavy spear with heavy breaking edge thrust forward desperately.

Soon Demon Lord Shuyue saw that it was not all the Black Wind Army that suddenly advanced eastward. The dozen or so black chariots loaded with heavy-bore crossbows did not retreat eastward, but instead put the heavy-bore crossbows into the carriages. After the shooting port and the shooting port were blocked with iron plates, they and the more than a thousand armored knights continued to stay in place, waiting for the more than a thousand miscellaneous demons who supported themselves until the end and did not fall down to rush through the last distance of less than a hundred steps.
