Chapter Seventy-Six: The Battle of Mortals

These five rows of bronze chariots have the appearance of more than 1,000 vehicles, standing horizontally in front of the ten thousand armies, and are obviously used for charging.

Behind the chariot were 10,000 mounted archers, dressed in simple leather armor, armed with bows and arrows, and carrying several quivers, which were filled with cold, glittering arrows.

After that, there is an infantry phalanx of more than 30,000 people, and the infantry is divided into two types, one is the heavy infantry wrapped in iron armor, holding a huge shield and a steel knife at the waist, and the other is the light infantry, wearing light leather armor and holding spears in both hands, giving people a sense of flexibility and lightness.

At the rear of the army, there are 50,000 cavalry armor soldiers, each with a black feather on the helmet, which is the black feather knight second only to the fire feather in the country.

In the army, there are also huge fire crossbows, the tips of the crossbows have been ignited, and they are surrounded by a team of armor soldiers, such giant fire crossbows, there are hundreds of them.

Compared with the deployment of the army of the Fire Feather Country, the army of the opposite Fence Country is very scattered and amateurish, with an army of 100,000 people, all of whom are cavalry, and I saw that these cavalrymen were all tall, dark-skinned, and screaming in their mouths, which was extremely chaotic.

These 100,000 people, all armed with bows and arrows, carried sabers at their waists, as if they were both mounted archers and light cavalry.

Behind the army of the Fire Feather Country, there is a seven-zhang high platform, which is half an acre in size on the high platform, and more than 20 people stand at this time.

Among them, more than a dozen soldiers in light armor, holding small flags of different colors, stood solemnly, and were the commanders of the army.

The rest of the people were all dressed in general's clothes, standing in front of the high platform, looking at the battlefield in the distance and not saying a word.

The middle person, in his forties, is wearing gold armor, heroic and extraordinary, with bright red feathers erected on the helmet, the whole person is extraordinary, standing there without moving, the aura spreads, it gives people a sense of coercion, this person is the general of the Fire Feather Kingdom, Guo Xiong.

On both sides of Guo Xiong, there were two middle-aged men in green robes, looking at the battlefield in front of them, looking like they were smiling and calm, and they were actually two foundation building deacons in the empty mulberry gate.

Guo Xiong glanced at the chaotic enemy army, his brows furrowed, and his eyes flashed, as if shooting out two sharp cold lights.

"Drumming!" Guo Xiong suddenly spit out two words, the words were not heavy, but with no doubt.

A commander in front of him, without saying a word, instantly raised a red flag, waved his arm, and shook it forward three times.

In an instant, a deafening sound of drumming sounded on the earth, and the sound of "dong dong" rose like a thunderbolt, which was magnificent and amazing.

At the same time, the sound of the snare drums in the country of the fence followed the sound, and as soon as the drums of both sides passed, the roar of the battlefield suddenly sounded straight into the sky, and the roar of people and horses shook the earth and swept wildly.

The 100,000 cavalry of the Fence Country suddenly galloped wildly in unison, and at the same time held bows and arrows in their hands, and shot the first round of sword rain.

Guo Xiong squinted his eyes slightly, slowly issued one order after another, every time he spit out a word, among the more than ten commanders in front, one of them took out a small flag or waved it violently on the left or right, and at the same time, the army below was orderly or attacked, or defended, and the entire army, the order was unified, and it was extremely shocking.

At this time, the bronze chariot at the front of the Fire Feather Country suddenly divided, and the ten thousand cavalry archers behind rushed out in unison, and after shooting an overwhelming array of arrows, they immediately ignored the left and right, circled around, and ran towards the rear of the army.

The giant fire crossbows interspersed in the army, under the operation of the surrounding armor soldiers, shot out terrifying rockets ten feet long and thigh-thick, mixed with a tyrannical and vicious wind, and shot towards the enemy troops on the opposite side.

After doing this, the three rows of bronze chariots rushed out in an instant with the sound of neighing horses, ignoring the large rain of arrows overhead, and roared towards the enemy army in front.

After the heavy infantry violently raised their tall shields to block the first round of sword rain, they suddenly divided left and right, and the black feather cavalry behind them shook the reins, and 50,000 war horses surged out in an instant, rushing towards the enemy through the heavy armored infantry, and the momentum swept the heavens and the earth, swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger.

The light infantry at the rear suddenly rushed forward in a low roar.

The rain of arrows from the Fence Country did not have much impact on the orderly army of the Fire Feather Country, but it was the cavalry archers and hundreds of huge rockets of the Fire Feather Country that dealt a great blow to the opponent, causing the opponent's momentum to slow down, and the speed of the impact slowed down.

In this way, after a short time, the armies of the two sides collided together, the sound of shouting and killing was earth-shattering, stumps and broken arms could be seen everywhere, and the battle scene was tragic and abnormal.

The two Zhuji deacons, who were originally breezy and calm, couldn't help but change their faces at this time, looking at the tragic battlefield in front of them, and suddenly felt a sense of shock.

However, Guo Xiong, who was wearing gold armor, never blinked his eyes from beginning to end, and gave every order with a calm face, his tone was almost indifferent.

Two hours later, the battlefield sounded one after another the sound of gold, the 100,000 troops of the fence country lost their armor, more than 40,000 cavalry fell directly on the spot, and the rest of the people were in a panic, like a tide of hurried retreat, and all of them were wounded, morale was sluggish, and the defeat was like a mountain.

In contrast, the losses of the Fire Feather Nation's army were negligible, with only a few thousand killed, while the others were almost intact and imposing.

Seeing this scene, General Guo Xiong frowned, and did not give the order to pursue the victory, but announced that Mingjin would withdraw his troops, in his opinion, the battle in recent days, the other party behaved too strangely, although the battlefield here was under his command, and the victory was great, but he was still faintly uneasy in his heart, and he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it.

Therefore, after each great victory, he did not give an order to pursue, to avoid the other party's deception, and made a plan to wait and see.

"General Guo is worthy of being a rare famous general in a hundred years, Wen Tao's martial arts strategy, and the arrangement of troops are quite attained, no wonder the head of the master and several other elders have praised you, today is really an eye-opener for me. ”

A deacon of the foundation building of the empty Sangmen could not hide the shock in his heart, although he was a strong man in the foundation building and regarded mortals as ants, but he had never seen the scene of hundreds of thousands of people fighting, the tragic picture of fighting each other on the battlefield and the strategic deployment of the army of the Fire Feather Country, all left a deep impression on him.

In the face of the well-founded attack of the army of the Fire Feather Country, the 100,000 army of the Fence Country was defeated like a mountain, as if it was crushed, and at this time, he was amazed, but out of sincerity.

"General Guo is called the Saint of Soldiers, and he really lives up to his name, he is really in the midst of strategizing, and he is winning thousands of miles away, I have to wait for admiration!" Another Zhuji deacon also nodded and spoke, looking at Guo Xiong's eyes, which had already faded from contempt and replaced with respect.

"The two masters are serious, and the villain's little skill is not worth mentioning. Although Guo Xiong held tens of millions of soldiers of the Fire Feather Country and held great power, in front of the two cultivators, he naturally did not dare to hold up, and hurriedly bowed with his fists.

"It's just that the other party's army is really weird, I haven't fought with the Fence Country once or twice, and I know them well.

However, in the last few battles, the opponent's combat effectiveness is obviously insufficient, which is not their real strength, and I am afraid that there is something hidden in it. Guo Xiong's brows furrowed immediately, the worry in his eyes became more and more intense, and a bad premonition also rose in his heart.

"Why should General Guo be so modest, you have a good command of the army, the morale of the army is high, plus you use the army like a god, I think the other party's commander's ability is far inferior to yours, so there will be such a one-sided situation. ”

"That's right, the only variable in the battle between the two armies is the low-level cultivators hidden by both sides, but so far, the other party has not sent a cultivator to participate in the war, if the other party really dares to make such a move, our cultivation sect will naturally take it, General Guo don't have to worry, this time the fence country will definitely be defeated!"

The two foundation-building powerhouses were very disdainful of the feudal country, and they exported one after another with contempt.

Guo Xiong didn't say much when he heard this, so he could only hurriedly say yes to these two people, and suppressed the haze in his heart for the time being.

......

Millions of miles away in the south of the Fire Feather Country, there is a giant peak, this peak covers an area of tens of thousands of acres, the altitude is thousands of zhang high, this is the Daming Mountain, the place where the two sides of the Fire Feather Country and the Fence Country are about to fight.

The geographical location of this mountain is still in the northern region of Qingzhou, but it does not belong to any country and is a neutral zone.

Of course, the claim of the neutral zone is a claim to the outside world, and only the high-level of some big forces can understand that the real owner of this mountain is the Phantom Cloud Sect.

Daming Mountain is full of verdant mountains, hundreds of boats compete for the stream, the trees on it are lush and green, insects, fish, birds and beasts are very numerous, the whole body exudes a sense of wild wildness, a kind of vitality is permeated everywhere in the mountains and wilderness.

Only the peak part protrudes out of a piece of wasteland, and the grass and trees do not grow, but it is flat and abnormal, like a platform, which is the size of a thousand acres.

At this time, at the peak of Daming Mountain, there were already many cultivators.

At a position on the top of the peak, ten cultivators in different costumes stood together, discussing something with each other, the head of the Ghost Burial Sect, and the heads of the three sects of the Rakshasa Sect, the Putuo Sect, and the Dilai Sect were impressively in it, and behind them, there were hundreds of disciples sitting cross-legged, these people were all cultivators of the Barrier Country.

In the middle of the peak, there are more than ten old men sitting cross-legged, like fairy wind bones, these old men are dressed in uniform gray Taoist robes, similar figures, from them, all of them exude the terrifying cultivation of the Jindan period.

One of them, Xiu Wei has reached the realm of Jindan Great Perfection, which is even higher than the master of the Ghost Gate and He Yinghua, the head of the Empty Sang Gate.

These people were naturally the elders of the Phantom Cloud Sect, and they all closed their eyes and meditated at this time, and they had no intention of speaking.

"Whoosh......"

A piercing sound of air explosion suddenly came, and immediately a huge bamboo raft appeared in the distant sky, swept by, and after a few breaths, it was suspended above the peak of Daming Mountain.
