Chapter 36: The Battle of the Five Armies (8)

To the west of Seven Nights City, on the blazing sand: a caravan of thousands of demons is repairing in place.

It's July in the desert of heavenly sin, although it's late at night. However, the heat wave still scorched the heavens and the earth like a flowing fire, vowing to smelt this ancient land into a furnace.

Even the camels could not stand the steaming of the heat, and were lying crooked on the desert, panting heavily.

The vast sea of sand was endless, and the patriarch of the Eagle Demon Clan, Yu Wei, buried his hands in the sand, spreading the detection range to a hundred kilometers away. The white linen cloth wrapped around his head had long been blurred by the dust.

It seems that Yu Wei's consciousness has left the demon body. I don't know what happened to me.

Beside Yu Wei, a red-clothed witch wearing a veil and a headscarf wiped her sweat and gently patted off the yellow sand on her back, and complained while patting: "It's hot, it's hot, it's hot to death!" Was the Seven Nights built on a volcano? Hum! When she returned to Yumeng City, Miss Ben had to pour ice dew for a few days and nights. ”

At this time, a voice shouted at the front of the line, "Lord Yingying, the weather is too hot." Brothers, I would like to ask you, can you give me a drink? The demon who shouted was dressed differently from the gray of the demons, and his clothes were a navy blue linen, which was very refreshing, as if he had never walked in the desert.

Hearing this, she turned her head and frowned, "Hey! Are you buffaloes? I drank it half an hour ago, why are I thirsty again? ”

The blue-clothed demon clan walked over and said with a smile: "Lord Yingying, this weather is really hot, the wind and sand are big, brothers, this is the first time to walk the Heavenly Sin Desert, it is really not easy. You should give me a face, and give me a favorβ€”"

Yu Ying stared at the blue-clothed demon for a moment, and before she could do it, she reluctantly untied a water bladder from her camel and threw it over. The Heavenly Sin Desert was dry and hot, and the water carried by the Demon Demon Army was limited, and the number of times they could drink water was strictly regulated.

"What the hell is the Seven Nights doing? This reception, the joint does not come. Supplies, delicious food and not delivered? It's a shame that we came all the way to help him, and I'm really angry. She looked at the Seven Nights Castle Tower, which had emerged in the wind and sand in the distance, and said with great dissatisfaction.

The blue-clothed demon didn't drink, but handed the water bladder to the first demon soldier next to him. The soldier opened the lid and drank wildly, and after swallowing the cow, he reluctantly passed it back. After a round, the two walls of the water bladder have been flattened together.

The blue-clothed demon clan shook the water bladder in his hand, and after a slight hesitation, he handed the water bladder back.

Yu Ying grinned: "This idiot, he really wants to die to save face." ”

At the moment when the water bladder was handed over, Yu Ying quickly took out a small exquisite water bladder from her waist and quietly handed it to the demon man in blue clothes.

The blue-clothed demon man looked at Yu Ying hesitantly and said, "Lord Yu Ying, I'm ..... I..... As the vanguard leader of the Eagle Demon Army, how could I do such a thing. If you want to drink, you have to drink it first. ”

This is a piece of Miss Eagle's heart, but it was rejected so bluntly by this nerd.

The demons also noticed the whole story, and they were all amused.

This Lord Commander is inevitably too ignorant, he is simply a steel demon, even if he refuses, he doesn't have to cut the face of the demon like this. What's more, it's the daughter of the patriarch.

But because of the ordinary authority of the two demons, they couldn't hold back their laughter.

In the silence, Yu Ying's face was flushed and said, "Oh, okay, you really can!" Don't drink it, do you? Then never drink it. The witch's face darkened, and she threw the small water bladder into the distance. Feeling still angry, he trotted all the way over, picked up the water bladder and threw it a few feet away.

The blue-clothed demon man looked at the angry Yuying, touched the back of his head, and said in his heart: "This ...... Why is this playing with the eldest lady's temper again? ”

Suddenly, the water bladder in the distance actually flew back again, and all the demons looked at each other, the kung fu of this void object is too exaggerated, right? Can it be sucked back a few feet away?

With a "click", the water bladder flew into the hand of the eagle. The patriarch of the Eagle Demon Clan opened the water bladder and drank it all: "Ah! Sweet. I said, "Ahh He doesn't drink it, so don't waste the water so much. ”

Yu Ying exhaled angrily: "Dead father, you and he are bullying me so much? Yes..... Okay..... You really can. From now on, no one will want to drink water anymore. With that, the witch mounted her camel and sailed back, leaving only the two bells on her ankles to echo clearly.

She smiled and shook her head as she watched her daughter drift away. With the melodious sound of the bell, the blue-clothed demon clan stepped forward and asked respectfully, "Patriarch, how is the situation?" ”

Yu Wei said: "Mo Ling, the situation may be a little complicated this time. In the city of light and night, there are at least five troops. Moreover, the qi emitted by the five armies is different. ”

Mo Ling hurriedly asked, "Does the patriarch mean that the five teams in the city belong to different camps?" ”

Yu Wei sighed and said, "That's not what I'm most worried about. What I'm most worried about now is the human army a hundred kilometers away, rushing to Seven Nights City non-stop. ”

Mo Ling was stunned for a moment, and suddenly jumped up: "Patriarch, there is an army of humans a hundred kilometers away?" ”

Yu Wei sighed with emotion: "Yes, and it seems that it should still be the real main force of mankind, and the unit closest to us is only the vanguard." ”

Mo Ling just wanted to ask again, but he heard Yu Wei "Shhh!" With a bang, the patriarch of the Eagle clan suddenly squatted down and pressed his palm against the yellow sand.

Mo Ling also reacted at this time, and the demon body fell down urgently, and listened quietly with his ears on the sand dunes.

I only heard a dull sound from behind the sand dunes on both sides, and it seemed that thousands of war horses were emitted at the same time. The leopard jumped up and shouted, "Listen silently, inform everyone, and prepare for battle." Also, send someone to inform Ah Ying to come to me quickly. ”

"Yes, Patriarch!" Mo Ling got up and left, shouting as he went, "All of them, get on the camel!" ”

All the demons were the first-class masters of the Eagle Demon Clan, and their reactions were not slow, and they immediately rode on camels and lined up with a long snake formation.

"Could it be that the enemy has been arranged in the desert in advance to wipe me out?" Yu Wei speculated, and felt a chill in his heart.

He looked to the side, and because of the angle of looking up, the sand dunes looked unusually majestic, as if they were in touch with the blue sky.

The first war horse finally poked out, and the rider was dressed in white and silver armor. However, the figure is slender. The female rider stands on the top of the sandbag, as tall as an aspen tree as the sand wind blows.

The demon body of the eagle was shocked, his eyesight was excellent, and at a glance he saw the two finger flags behind the armor of the female general, and the left flag read: Wind Forest Volcano Yin Thunder. On the right banner reads: All the fighters are arrayed in front

After a while, the human cavalry galloped out from behind the sand dunes on both sides, lined up in a black and black line, and it was difficult to count the number for a while.

Just as the demons felt their scalps tingle, the female general raised her little finger and blew a loud whistle.

When boarding, the horses galloped and the sand and dust flew. These hundreds of war horses met in two directions, and they were not chaotic at all, and they were arranged in an orderly cavalry cone array. This group of human cavalry was flying with great joy when they charged, and once they condensed into a battle formation, they were so silent that they didn't even neigh.

All the demons of the Eagle Demon Clan are all experienced in battles, but they are also pale in the face of such a battle formation.

In the era of cold weapons, those who won cavalry won the world. As soon as the horn sounded, the mighty heavy cavalry rushed towards the enemy camp with all their might, and the sound of horses' hooves shaking the earth brought not only damage to the soldiers, but also deep fear in their hearts.

Both survivability and the superiority of group operations are the strongest in history. The advantages of cavalry such as long-distance galloping, detouring, and outflanking have been brought into full play, and there is no doubt that cavalry is the king of the era of cold weapons.

Two hundred years later, firearms have developed unprecedentedly, and even specialized firearms units and artillery units have been derived, and the status of cavalry has rapidly declined.

And two hundred years later, when the armored mechanized troops appeared, the cavalry gradually became history, and the heroic appearance of the past has become a helpless nostalgic landscape.

Today, the cavalry is still invincible. Under the iron cavalry charge, the invincible power, the demon path martial arts seemed so weak.

However, there are accidents in everything, and the camel cavalry of the Eagle Demon Clan are not afraid of the iron cavalry charge of humans.

Once, in the history of another time and space: the Mamluk camel cavalry was the only army before the rise of the Mongol cavalry, an army that made the European heavy cavalry cry without tears.

Because the horses were so disgusted by the smell of camels, many European knights fell off their horses in fright before they could fight the enemy!

In terms of logistical supplies, camels can live on the coarsest parts of sparse vegetation, and can eat thorny plants, shrubs, and hay that other animals do not eat, which horses do not have.

The Mamluk camel cavalry relied on the desert terrain and wielded a half-moon scimitar commonly used by desert peoples, armed with fairly tight armor. Because of their religious beliefs and high morale, they are a very formidable armed force.

It is reported that a Mamluk army from Egypt defeated the Mongol cavalry in Syria by luring the enemy into the depths, preserving the undefeated battle of the Nile Valley and North Africa, as well as the camel cavalry against the cavalry!

It wasn't until the 18th century that when Napoleon invaded Egypt, French cavalry armed with muskets defeated a Mamluk legion at the Battle of the Pyramids.

Interestingly, in this time and space, the two cavalry units of humans and demons also withdrew from the stage of history at the same time two hundred years later.

Yu Wei exhaled and asked, "Who is coming?" Registered? The voice was not loud, but it reverberated in the desert of heavenly sin for a long time.

I saw the female general riding a horse cruising in front of the battle, and shouted: "Eldest grandson Longqing." ”

"Sure enough." She knew the human woman and her cavalry troops.

Known as "the wind forest volcano, the god-level warrior Wu (horse) who flies in the vast pass - the eldest grandson Longqing."

It is as fast as the wind, as slow as a forest, as encroaching as fire, as immobile as a mountain, as difficult as a cloud, and as moving as a thunderstorm.

Her cavalry unit really did:

When it moves quickly, it is like a whirlwind in a storm.

When you walk calmly, it is like a forest.

When attacking cities and plundering land, they are like fierce fires;

When stationed in defense, it is like a mountain;

When the military situation is hidden, it is like a dark cloud covering the sun;

When the army is dispatched, it is like a thunderbolt.

Since ancient times, there has been: the night north iron ride, sweeping the eight wildernesses. Flying and riding, unparalleled in the world.

This female general is the commander of the Flying Cavalry of the Vast Pass, and her reputation is also thunderous, deterring the Demon Realm, and there was even a commotion in the Demon Clan's Long Snake Array.

Yu Wei's face remained unchanged, and she smiled: "Hehe, little girl." Your horses are very disgusted by the smell of our crows and camels, and if you fight us in close combat, I am afraid that you will be the one who suffers. ”

The eldest grandson, Long Qing, was stunned and raised his voice: "You are right. But what if we don't fight you in close quarters with all our arrows? After speaking, she sharply pulled out the Nine Feathers Canglong Bow from her back, opening the string like a full moon, and the arrow went like a meteor.

"Whoosh", a wailing sound could be heard, and a raven camel was pierced through the chest by a fierce arrow. The camel fell to the ground with a bang, and its breath went in and out.

In the dust, the owner of the camel, a young demon warrior, turned pale, and thought to himself, what would happen if this arrow hit him?

After a period of silence, Mo Ling came out of the crowd and shouted, "Brothers, don't be afraid. Charge with me! Killβ€”"

Eldest Sun Longqing's face tightened, and he sneered: "Hmph, the scum of the demon clan, today, you will be asked to bury your bones in the Heavenly Sin Desert." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her longbow, and the array moved rapidly, and thousands of flying horses began to draw circles along the arc, tightly surrounding the camel cavalry of the Eagle Demon.

This belongs to the bow riding - the Eagle Flying Formation, which uses the rapid mobility of the horses to shoot arrows in 360 degrees without dead ends.

With another wave of her bow, all the knights wound their arrows, and the black arrows were aimed at the camel cavalry of the Eagle Demon.

"Put!" The eldest grandson, Long Qing, shouted categorically. A dense rain of arrows shot at the demon cavalry, and the fierce hissing pierced the dull silence of the desert.

In the face of the all-pervasive rain of arrows, the demon warriors could only draw their scimitars to protect their bodies.

The surroundings are full of flying horses, there is no way to retreat, there is no way to avoid, and they are shot alive. One by one, the camels fell, their dying wails echoing in the desert of sin.

Although the demons are strong and wear heavy armor. However, it can't withstand the repeated attacks of these strong bows and arrows.

In an instant, hundreds of eagle demons had been wounded by arrows. The dense net of arrows found a gap, and when it landed, it was transmitted inward.

As long as a camel is hit by an arrow in the abdomen, it grows up with a wail. This time it became the target of everyone, and was almost shot by dozens of arrows at the same time.

Knowing that if it took a while, the clansmen would not be able to escape today's fate, and the patriarch of the Eagle Demon raised his voice and roared: "All of them are there, form a large circle formation, and use the body of the crow camel as a cover." Then use the Spike Hammer and Iron Slings to attack the horses, causing them to lose their mobility. ”

At the command, the faces of the demon warriors turned pale for a moment. In their eyes, these camels are not animals, but partners and comrades-in-arms with whom they get along day and night.

But in such a dense rain of arrows. If you don't, it's definitely the end of your life. At this point, I can only say sorry.

Then all the demons dismounted from their camels and gathered together to form a circular array.

The eldest grandson Long Qing frowned, pulled his bow and three arrows, and shot the three demons on the spot.

Her arrows were far faster than the others'. Moreover, when it passes through the air, it emits a strong golden vortex, and it is even accompanied by the sound of a dragon's groan!

The rain of arrows continued to rain relentlessly, and the bodies of many camels were like hornet's nests, riddled with holes.

The eldest grandson Longqing raised his eyes to look, and it was just opposite to the eyes of the white linen cloth wrapped around his head, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

It was a pair of bloodshot eyes that seemed to contain stars and abysses. This mutual gaze is more like the expression of a succubus when it launches an illusion at the target.

In a moment, the purple magic sword on Yu Wei's waist flew out in vain, and it was already a foot in front of her in an instant.

And the eldest grandson Longqing didn't seem to react. The nearby Mangguan flying horsemen shouted and cursed, and they all surrounded and guarded the leader. With a long roar, the Soul Dementor Sword was put back into its sheath.

At this time, although you can't kill her. However, the eldest grandson has already mastered his own dementoring illusion. At this moment, she can't command the troops is no different from killing.

At this time, the voice of Mo Ling came from his ears: "Patriarch, the circular array has been arranged. ”

Yu Wei immediately waved his hand and ordered: "All of them, give me - shoot the horse!" ”

But I heard the "whoosh" sound in an instant. I saw that countless spike hammers and iron bullets shot out from the circular formation, and dozens of horses were knocked down in an instant.

By the time the human riders understood the intentions of the horses, there were no less than hundreds of horses.

The warriors of the Eagle Demon are born with a strong demon body and infinite strength, and the hidden weapon in their hands is not much worse than the human strong bow.

In less than a moment's time, the archers of the Eagle Soaring Array were already in disarray.

And the commander Changsun Longqing seemed to be still immersed in the illusion of the Eagle Demon and did not wake up.

Yu Wei shouted in magic language: "Brothers, rush up to me and behead this woman!" Those who take her first rank will be promoted by three levels in a row. ”

As soon as the words fell, the silent roar was like thunder, and a demon took the lead. Pulling out a scimitar from his waist, the demonic aura was exposed. Dancing with a knife flower, he rushed out.

In the blink of an eye, the demon had already rushed into the formation of the Boundless Flying Horse. This time, I found a way to crack the flying horse by mistake.

Because it was a close combat, the riders were afraid of hurting their accomplices. Therefore, I don't dare to shoot arrows easily.

At this moment, in the face of Mo Ting's sudden attack, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, hundreds of flying horses could not do it, and heard a long roar from the demon, and it was actually a knife to cut off seven heads in a row.

Silently listened to a stride, jumped high, put his head in his hands and shouted loudly.

Inspired by the silent listening, the warriors of the Eagle Demon also drew their scimitars and rushed over, aiming directly at the eldest grandson Longqing.

The flying horses of Mangguan couldn't resist and began to retreat. I was too busy to take care of myself, and gradually I couldn't protect the leader.

At this moment, a hurricane suddenly blew through the ground, and sand and dust flew and swirled.

In the wind and sand, a huge white snake came out of the sand, and dozens of demon warriors who rushed forward to take the head of the eldest grandson flew away in a row.

I saw that the big white snake coiled up and protected the eldest grandson Longqing in the center. The seven inches of the big snake gradually opened, and in the seven inches, a graceful female ketone body slowly rose, revealing it.

Yu Wei waved his hand to stop the demons, pointed at the person with his hand, and asked: "If the old man is not mistaken, Your Excellency is the Demon Killer Guardian Divine Rank (Snake) known as the White Snake Immortal - Bai Mengyue"
