The night is dark and dark clouds cover the moon.
Three thousand defeated soldiers were lying in ambush here, like a pack of dormant wolves, quietly waiting for their prey to appear.
Finally, two days later, late at night, news came from the front!
"The scouts have found the enemy! There are about 40,000 of them, wearing Zhao armor, so they must be out in full force! Moreover, the enemy... is in disarray, and the scout camp is making strange movements, with no sign of any reconnaissance!"
Chu Tianxiao was not surprised when he received such news, but the generals of the defeated army were almost shocked to death - the formation was scattered, and no scouts were sent? Is this a famous general of the Great Zhao? He is just like a young man who has just come out to lead the army!
I thought that although my young master was strong, he couldn't control the enemy's actions, but I never thought that he could even predict the enemy's "mistakes" in advance! Moreover, this is not a "mistake", this is simply stupid!
"The young master is simply a god! An almighty god! Any miracle that comes from his hands is nothing surprising!"
At once, this thought emerged in the minds of all the defeated army generals.
“Here it comes!”
Chu Tianxiao was lying among the reeds at this moment, his eyes moving, but they never left the "special area" in front of him where various mechanisms and traps had already been set up. Suddenly, the corners of his mouth rose slightly!
There was no need to say much. With just this expression, the two defeated army soldiers around him had already understood that the war was about to begin. They quickly and silently issued many orders, and from beginning to end, Chu Tianxiao did not say a word.
It is incredible that a leader can achieve this level, which also proves the complete transformation of the defeated army!
Not long after, the sound of horse hooves stomping the ground came from the front. For a moment, dust flew up, blocking the view, but Chu Tianxiao seemed to see through everything.
At a certain moment, he raised his right hand slightly!
This is the signal to take action!
At this moment, there were loud thuds and bloody howls of pain in the field!
I don’t know how many people fell into the trap and died in the blink of an eye!
"A horse pit?!"
"There's an ambush! Retreat!"
In the darkness, the 40,000 Zhao troops were in chaos!
Some people wanted to retreat, but it was too late! Because along with these sounds, there was a burst of exciting war drums and shouts of killing! Suddenly, several layers of defeated soldiers appeared around the enemy, each holding a white longbow, pulling full feather arrows, and shooting at the Zhao army fiercely!
And because of the "isolation zone" set up in advance, as soon as the opponent entered the "cage", the defeated army immediately began to set fire wantonly. For a while, the flames were raging, and the raging fire was like a terrifying beast that chose its prey. Not only did it successfully trap the Zhao army, but it also burned them to pieces, their faces were charred, and they howled in pain!
Feather arrows fell with flames and screams!
Realizing that their lives depended on it, Zhao soldiers continued to try their best to break out of the flames, but less than 30% of them succeeded. The rest were swallowed up by the flames halfway through the charge, and after holding their heads and howling in pain for a while, they fell to the ground and were burned into black corpses by the flames.
The Zhao army, which was less than 30%, was in a state of panic. They finally managed to break out, but they stepped into more traps such as bamboo spears and deer horns. In the blink of an eye, there were casualties and screams...
But even so, Chu Tianxiao showed no mercy, nor did he give them any chance to breathe. At his order, the soldiers of the defeated army who had been standing by and staring coldly at the fire suddenly moved. White light flashed on their hands, and with the help of the raging flames, they used guns or knives to ruthlessly kill the Zhao army that had just "escaped death" and was now in a mess!
There was an uproar and screams again!
The wind was howling all around, as if to bring despair deep into the hearts of these Zhao soldiers. Flames and stray arrows were raging in the air, and heavy blood had dyed the ground red on all sides!
In just one hour, these 40,000-plus Zhao troops were on the verge of being annihilated!
You know, 40,000 Zhao troops sound a lot, but in fact they can't be considered the real elite of Zhao. After all, the young emperor of Zhao is fighting on all sides, and he needs elite soldiers everywhere. The soldiers left in these border areas are not weak, but they are not too strong! Therefore, any officer of the defeated army is absolutely confident that if they fight outside the city, 3,000 defeated soldiers will be enough to defeat this army!
Even a direct battle in the wild was like this, not to mention that the Zhao army was now surrounded by 3,000 defeated soldiers and ambushed. At the beginning, they were set up by traps and other traps, and then burned by a wave of fire. After rushing out, they stepped on a bunch of traps... After all the tossing and turning, not only did they suffer heavy casualties, but they were also completely in chaos...
If the defeated army cannot easily crush an army in such a state, then Chu Tianxiao might as well disband the army and go home to farm!
Under the light of the fire, this group of Zhao troops were dying at a speed visible to the naked eye. The strength of their resistance was getting weaker and weaker, and they even... failed to cause much damage to the defeated army!
"Don't panic! Don't be afraid! The front army becomes the rear army and charge out!"
Seeing this situation, Zhao Hao and Sheng Xu seemed to be "stimulated" and their last instinct for survival began to take effect. They hurriedly tried to reorganize the last troops and rush out, but unexpectedly... the defeated army was much more elite than they imagined...
After several attempts to break out, they not only failed to shake the enemy's formation, but also suffered heavy casualties. Even the two of them were slashed with countless wounds. If it weren't for the fact that both of them had reached the Tongxuan realm and had undergone marrow cleansing, they would probably have been two corpses by now...
"What kind of army is this?"
Before they could figure it out, most of the soldiers around them had already died.
"Damn it! I am the general of the Great Zhao, a master of the Profound Realm. How can I die in the hands of a bunch of pawns? I hate it!" As his injuries worsened, Zhao Hao finally realized that there was no chance of breaking out. He couldn't help but hate it in his heart - there had been no chance for battle for so many years, and finally a good opportunity was given by God, but how could it be a trap! Was he so unlucky that he deserved to never achieve great success in his life
As he was thinking this, a cold voice sounded in his ears.
"Are Tongxuan realm masters rare?"
Xueyan stepped out of the defeated army camp, and then, in a flash, his figure flashed, and when he reappeared, his right wolf claw was already on Zhao Hao's shoulder, digging out a ******* How could it be! "Although he was injured and exhausted, he was still a strong man in the Tongxuan upper realm, but the opponent controlled him with one move...
"This army... This... is impossible!"
Xueyan's wolf claws pressed against the man's throat, but he ignored him and said, "The young master has ordered that except for this man, all others shall be killed!"
“Yes!”
Hearing this, the men of the prodigal army showed even more ruthlessness and charged fiercely. Not long after, the last resistance of the Zhao army disappeared, and even Sheng Xu, who was in the Tongxuan middle realm, could not escape the disaster. After fighting to exhaustion and failing to break out, his body in the Tongxuan realm finally couldn't bear it anymore. His minor injuries increased, and it was difficult to recover from the serious condition. In the end, he was chopped down to the ground by the prodigal army!
A famous general of his generation fell and died in this unknown "Ziyou Road", which seemed extremely desolate...
At this point, the ambush finally came to an end - more than 40,000 Zhao soldiers were burned to death, many were buried alive, and the rest were all ruthlessly killed because Chu Tianxiao refused to accept their surrender - because of what would happen later, Chu Tianxiao knew that he could not show mercy at this time, so after thinking it over, he still issued the order.
In addition, the army's commander Sheng Xu was killed in battle and his deputy general Zhao Hao was captured. It can be said that the entire army was completely wiped out.
Liyang City has completely lost the ability to resist!
Chu Tianxiao was not surprised by this. These two famous generals of the Zhao State had been fed brain-dead movies by the Big Loser System. Their IQ dropped by 80%. They didn't think of desperately breaking through until the last moment. They were so weak! They only relied on the fact that their soldiers were more than ten times more than the Loser Army. Otherwise, could they last for a quarter of an hour
So, this is how he commented on the battle afterwards.
"It's a bully battle, you know. The opponent is too weak, let him use his hands and feet, and attack as he pleases. You can win anyway."
