When Xiaoheixiaobai rushed to the scene with the third team of the Northern Expedition, the war was over.
There was indescribable chaos. The ground seemed to have been washed by red rain, and there were piles of flesh and blood everywhere. Not even a complete corpse can be found, and the land is covered with pure mess.
The faces of the soldiers who came to support were full of bewilderment, and they couldn't even tell which side was victorious, the giants or the humans. Xiaobai's eyes kept searching in the ruins, and finally found a surviving human army in the distance, and he almost immediately rushed away silently.
Less than a hundred survived. Except for some veterans with missing arms and legs, they are basically the masters on the human side. Many people stared blankly at the ground in front of them, and many people were dealing with large and small wounds on their bodies. For example, the boy named Hong Lian was biting the gauze with his teeth to bandage the deep bony wound on his elbow, while looking at Xiao Bai who was passing by him.
Xiao Hei then arrived. He first rode a horse around the scattered crowd, and soon found a familiar figure among the crowd. General Plant of the Tiance Mansion was sitting on the ground, trying the temperature of Lanna's forehead with his hands. The little princess Lanna is unconscious, and the delicate temples are stained with dust.
Xiao Hei jumped off the horse, quickly walked up to Plant, and asked:
"What's going on? Where's the giant race? And big sister... why is Lord Lingwu missing?"
Plant shook his head and replied indifferently:
"I don't know. The first round of their confrontation with the giants was over when I came. The Jinyao giant died, and the army of the giants was gone. There was only one silver-white giant left. We integrated the army and moved towards it. Launched an attack, but the battle has not yet been decided, its body suddenly exploded like a swollen ball... "
Before Plante could finish speaking, there was a sudden commotion. He stopped talking, and looked over there with Xiao Hei.
There, a young man who didn't know which territory he came from seemed to be on the verge of collapse, and loudly questioned Zhan Mei:
"You already knew that thing would explode, right? All my people died in this war; how many of my cronies were inside, all are gone now... What if I go back alive, my gang of brothers You will not miss this opportunity, I am finished. Now I want to ask you, what do you really want, and I will not hesitate to drag so many people to be buried with you!!"
The ax in Zhan Mei's hand was broken, leaving only a handle. War Ghost lay behind her, coughing continuously, his tall and mighty body was covered with wounds, some were covered with medicine, and some were just exposed. Zhan Mei scratched the ground with the handle of the ax in her hand, with no expression of joy, anger, sorrow or joy on her face, she simply replied:
"I have no idea."
The young master was so angry that he sifted chaff all over his body, pointed at Zhan Mei with trembling fingers, and asked loudly:
"You don't know...? I saw with my own eyes that after Garberd's death, that woman went to the north without looking back! The golden obsidian giant, the silver giant, and the steel-heart giant all had red light on their chests when they died. In that direction, do you dare to say that there is no connection here?"
He originally wanted to pinch Zhan Mei's neck, but just as he stretched out his hand, someone patted him on the shoulder. The young master turned his head, his distorted face instantly calmed down a lot, and said respectfully:
"Heiye..."
Xiao Hei took his palm off his shoulder. Among the various forces heading north this time, the Lord of Lingwu is definitely the one who can hold his ground the most. If it weren't for the absence of the Lord of Lingwu and the heavy casualties of Lingwu's soldiers, this young master would never dare to fight against Zhan Mei like this. say. Other than Lord Lingwu, Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai have the highest prestige. After all, standing behind them are the two largest territories of Eternal Heaven.
Xiao Hei squatted down and asked Zhan Mei:
"Lord Lingwu went to the north? Where's Lide?"
Zhan Mei raised her head, glanced at Xiao Hei, dropped the handle of the battle ax in her hand, stood up, and said:
"He left on his own before meeting the giants... Your Majesty acquiesced in his actions, and he has not returned until now."
There was a bit of sadness in Zhan Mei's voice. The territory of the giants is full of dangers, and any mistake may put Lide in a situation where there is no redemption. This is not the Kingdom of Eternal Heaven, and even tenth-level experts dare not act alone here. Whether it is bumping into the army of giants, or encountering medium or even high-level giants, it is basically a dead end.
Xiao Hei frowned, looked towards the distant sky, and asked:
"What are you going to do? Take the army back, or wait here for Lord Lingwu to come back?"
Most of the Lingwu army of the second team died in the hands of the low-level giants. Some of the Lingwu army of the first team fell into the abyss, and some of them lost their bones in the explosion that destroyed the world. But Xiaoheixiaobai has basically preserved the remaining 10,000 iron cavalry and 20,000 infantry in Lingwu Territory, and their fate needs to be decided by the leader of the Moon Guard.
Zhan Gui forced himself to sit up, and several generals of the Moon Guard immediately came to support him. War Ghost gasped twice and said:
"Let's go back. While the military strength is still there, we can still deal with various risks. If we continue to stay here, if some people die, the soldiers will never go back."
Xiao Hei sighed and said:
"So best."
What he is most worried about is that Lingwu's army will stubbornly stay here and wait for their lord, which is of no value except increasing casualties.
After this battle, on the one hand, the giant race no longer constituted a condition that restricted Lingwu's southward movement due to the heavy casualties; Under the influence of these two factors, the situation in the Kingdom of Eternal Heaven should not experience too many turmoil in a short period of time, and most of the territories will still focus on waiting and watching.
But if there is any problem with the chief and deputy generals of Yuewei and these 30,000 elite soldiers, the situation in the world will probably develop out of control that day.
"Your Majesty will come back. The past lords of Lingwu have never made any wrong decisions."
The mighty voice of the war ghost echoed among the generals of the Moon Guard, and they limped into the army formation.
Zhan Mei followed behind him with a somewhat tired expression. Her physical strength really couldn't keep up, and she was born and died several times along the way, no matter how energetic a person is, she couldn't bear it. Lingwu's army began to slowly withdraw to the south, and the princes who were willing to follow also gathered people to follow them back. No matter how many complaints they have in their hearts, they still have to go back with Lingwu's army. Being alone means sending them to death.
After the people gradually dispersed, Xiao Hei looked at Xiao Bai beside him, and said with a serious expression:
"Elder Sister's ticket is too big to play. But you know what, Xiaobai, I have a bad feeling. She is a person who refuses to suffer. At least 60,000 Lingwu soldiers died in the northward journey this time. According to her personality, she would have to get back at least ten times the income before giving up. We have already seen how strong the Lingwu army is, and there is no problem in sweeping the world with 600,000 Lingwu soldiers. So if the eldest sister really takes When it comes to what she wants in Return of the King, I…”
Xiao Hei folded his arms and was silent for a while, then raised his hand and said:
"I was the first to persuade my father to turn his back on his arms and drop his armor, and surrender with courtesy, so that he will still be a Marquis in the future. Wouldn't it be beautiful?"
"Don't think so much. It's not so easy for Lide to die, and it's not so easy for Lord Lingwu to get what she wants."
After Xiaobai finished speaking, he got on his horse and led the troops of Xiqin and Nanchu back.
