Chapter 409: Collapse (Part II)
Lan Ziyi, who was in the midst of the chaos, returned to the west gate just now in a trance, ironically he is now at the west gate, the difference from before is that there are more people at the gate now, the fire is more vigorous, and even the camp gate is lit.
Lan Ziyi was hit by the tide of people around him again, and pedestrians squeezed past Lan Ziyi side by side, the familiar sense of impact evoked the humiliation in Lan Ziyi's heart, and in just a short time, in the same place, in the same way, Lan Ziyi lost twice.
Lan Ziyi in the crowd no longer had the strength to be in a daze, he stood alone in the middle of the road, like a wooden stick accidentally inserted in the middle of the water at low tide, conspicuous but would be knocked down by the waves at any time.
Since Lan Ziyi couldn't be beaten into a trance because of being lost again, then he had to use his brain. He Lan Ziyi brought such a large group of reinforcements over, but he was killed by the demon thieves in a few hits, and he was scared back under the condition of unknown enemy situation.
Failure is a shame for a general of the unified army, and a failure like the current one is a great shame, Lan Ziyi really wants to open his arms to stop these retreating soldiers in front of him and order them to turn back and fight again, but he also knows that this is impossible, Tao Zhutu tried to stop the retreating soldiers just now but was beaten by someone, and now life and death are uncertain, he Lan Ziyi does not have the ability of Tao Zhutu, if he dares to stop, he must be a mantis arm as a car, even if he is not trampled to death by the retreating army, he will be hacked to death by the demon thief who pressed up from behind.
Now that the army has been defeated and Lan Ziyi has lost the control of the whole army, then for Lan Ziyi, the only reasonable behavior now is to flee with the chaotic army.
Although it is a shame, if you don't run again, Lan Ziyi will have nothing to run.
Lan Ziyi, who had made up his mind, no longer stood in place like a stick, he lowered his head, bent down, put his body down to the same height as the person next to him, and then quietly followed the team forward.
said to be moving forward together, in fact, the whole team has no direction at all, when Lan Ziyi came to give full play to the power of the long soldiers, the team was arranged very densely, and now when he wants to escape, everyone is crowded together, plus the crowd that was oppressed by the demon thieves from both wings of the team, Lan Ziyi, who was in the middle of the team, could not retreat to the way he wanted, he was being squeezed into other directions by various forces.
The further back they went, the more crowded the line became, and the pikemen with long soldiers in their hands had no room to throw away the obstructions in their hands, and they were pushed by the other sergeants behind them or beside them, stumbling and unable to find their way.
Behind this group of retreating soldiers who were crowded together, beside them, in all directions, there were constant shouts everywhere. The smoke was full of screams and the stiffness of people before they were dying, and there was still a shout of killing on all sides before the blink of an eye. This infiltrating scream not only set off the cold and terrifying horror of the entire battlefield, but also conveyed a shocking news to everyone - there are no soldiers resisting anymore.
Lan Ziyi, who was mixed in the crowd, hated that iron could not become steel, and he cursed the group of cowards around him in his heart, cursing them for not being strictly organized, unclear orders, and cursing them for not obeying orders and fleeing. At the same time, Lan Ziyi was also listening to the scolding around him, some scolding the court, scolding the weather, scolding the people around him, and scolding King De, and even scolding him Lan Ziyi brought people over to send him to death.
Lan Ziyi must find a way out of such a chaotic situation and chaotic scene. He learned to stretch out his hand and pull like other sergeants, trying to open a way for himself, but after only a few attempts, he realized that with his Lan Ziyi's strength, it was impossible to take the initiative to separate these soldiers around him to find a way for himself, and anyone around him was stronger than him.
Lan Ziyi, who reacted, immediately changed his thinking, he deliberately suppressed his body lower than just now, and only used his strength and attention under his feet so that he could stand firmly, and his upper body let the surrounding forces push and shove at will, and took the initiative to let himself be pushed forward.
Lan Ziyi will naturally be pushed to a place where he shouldn't be by the aimless blind stream around him. But Lan Ziyi is not simply following the crowd, he will change paths when the time comes, and try his best to squeeze into another torrent. Along the way, Lan Ziyi was slapped in the face by the elbow of the person next to him, pushed by the rebels, and was also stopped by a knife, because some people thought that Lan Ziyi was in the way of crowding. Fortunately, after today's series of hard battles and chaos, Lan Ziyi had mud and blood stains on his face, and his hair was all scattered, and he himself deliberately kept a low profile, and no one could recognize him under a few faces. In this way, Lan Ziyi squeezed back from the middle of the chaotic army little by little.
The attack of the demon thieves became more and more fierce, and the soldiers were surrounded more and more tightly, and it became more and more difficult to move. Lan Ziyi remembered seeing the demon thieves cut off the retreat of the officers and soldiers from behind, and now it was difficult to even move, and if he dragged it any longer, he was afraid that he would be squeezed to death in this crowd.
Fortunately, after Lan Ziyi's efforts, he had squeezed to the end of the line, and the road to escape was in front of him.
It's just that there are many soldiers who want to escape like him in front of Lan Ziyi, and there are also demon thieves who block in front of the soldiers.
The number of demon thieves is not large, and they can only barely compress the width of the road, but they cannot block the retreat. Seeing the demon thieves blocking the road in front of him, Lan Ziyi really hated itchy, there were only so many demon thieves who came to close the road, so how many demon thieves could attack in other directions? These soldiers under Lan Ziyi's hands are a little bold, just now they were willing to listen to him Lan Ziyi stay and work hard, and now they have already repelled these demon thieves.
But it's in vain to think about it, it's too late to say anything now, and it's too late to even run for your life if you hesitate.
Lan Ziyi lowered his head and clinged to the soldiers in front of him and around him, and he also found an opportunity to pick up a handful of thin mud from the ground and wipe it on his face.
The demon thief in front of him just narrowed the road with the long and short weapons in his hand, and the officers and soldiers could still rush out of the gap as long as they tried to rush forward.
Lan Ziyi hid behind people, and his eyes kept checking the demon thieves who blocked the road. He silently wrote down the location of all the thief sergeants in his mind, saw the weapons in their hands, and calculated the time when they wielded them. Of course, Lan Ziyi did this for the convenience of himself when he broke through the level, so as not to be injured by the demon thief, but after he silently did all this, he found a problem, that is, the demon thief did not take the initiative to intercept and kill the official army, they deliberately left a small gap for the official army to escape. There is a lack of one in the three, and the demon thief also understands this truth.
Lan Ziyi stuck to the back of the sergeant in front of him and slowly squeezed forward, and the more he walked on the escape road, the tighter the soldiers around him pushed, Lan Ziyi was hit and squeezed, and it hurt to touch, and there were several cuts on his body by the weapon that was not long-eyed. But he was not in a hurry, he calmly followed the people in front of him and silently bowed his head forward. Finally, the row of soldiers in front of Lan Ziyi walked to the intersection where they escaped.
The thieves were in the tents on both sides of the road, and the smoke covered their tracks, and it was impossible to see how many people were behind them, but there were not many long and short weapons sticking out on both sides of the road. The thieves slashed indiscriminately into the middle of the road, and most of the sergeants walking on both sides were slashed and killed, leaving corpses all the way, while the remaining officers and soldiers were squeezed into the middle of the road.
Lan Ziyi saw the situation early, squeezed hard to the middle of the team, when the soldiers in front of him rushed to the intersection, he also followed the force, as long as the soldiers in front of him got out of the way, he Lan Ziyi could rush out immediately.
Lan Ziyi's calculation was correct, he and the sergeant in front of him could indeed make him escape in the first place, but what he missed was that in this way, Lan Ziyi's escape route would block the people next to him.
When people are trying to survive, they can burst out with strength and irritability that are several times higher than usual, and the soldier who was blocked by Lan Ziyi is now in such a situation. Lan Ziyi squeezed out not only to block the sergeant's way, but also squeezed him heavily, the sergeant was angry at the moment, a big hand stretched out and clasped Lan Ziyi's shoulder, and swept Lan Ziyi out with a backhand.
The sergeant scolded:
"Bastard dares to stand in the way of Lao Tzu?"
Lan Ziyi was directly overturned by this blow, and when he lost his balance, he wanted to grab something to keep his balance, so he grabbed the sergeant who ran in front of him before.
Lan Ziyi grabbed hard like a drowning man trying to grasp a straw, although he didn't grasp the sergeant in front of him, but he was enough to break the balance of the sergeant and let him and Lan Ziyi fall to the side of the road together.
Because of a panic when escaping, Lan Ziyi fell down with another sergeant. When Lan Ziyi, who had fallen and eaten, was still lying on the ground and dizzy, he was suddenly overwhelmed by something heavy. With Lan Ziyi's experience on the battlefield for so long, what suddenly pressed down should be a corpse.
Lan Ziyi cursed angrily in his heart, wouldn't suppressing him now take away his escape? But this thought didn't last long in Lan Ziyi's mind, and soon Lan Ziyi thanked the corpse that pressed on him, because in front of Lan Ziyi, the sergeant who had just been dragged down by Lan Ziyi was hit in the back of the head by a spear stabbed from the side of the road, and after a few convulsions, he couldn't move anymore.
