Text Chapter 1171: Fall of the Handsome Flag

On the city, Song Liangcheng laughed loudly: "Shuai Lin, don't run away, you can't run away, I, Song Liangcheng, obeyed the imperial edict of the Shang emperor, and commanded a hundred thousand troops to wait here for a long time, just to clean up the dust for you. !"

All around, the drums were beating loudly.

There are scattered torches shaking everywhere in the fertile fields in the distance. What Song Liangcheng said is true, there is definitely a force of 100,000 troops. Although most of them are infantry, at this time, no one in the Longdan Battalion has been there for three days and three nights. Closing his eyes, he had already reached the limit of his physical fitness, and the horses could no longer walk. The appearance of these 100,000 enemy troops was like a nightmare.

With a neighing sound, the snow-treading horse lost its front hoof and fell heavily into the dark snow.

Sikong Yao hurried forward: "Brother Ah Yu, are you alright?"

"fine."

Lin Muyu stood up in embarrassment from the muddy snow, and said: "Ayao, hurry up, order the three armies to retreat and join Liu Buyi's troops!"

"yes!"

"Tread the snow, step on the snow..."

Lin Muyu looked at Texue struggling desperately on the ground, she was already foaming at the mouth.

"Forget it, go where you should go, don't get caught."

Lin Muyu helped her to stand up, cut off the reins, patted Taxue's neck, her face was full of desolation, and said: "I never thought that it would be time for me to release Ma Nanshan so soon... It's all my fault, it's all my fault... ..."

In the dark night, Si Kongyao brought a group of people, all of them were iron cavalry from the Longdan Camp, but all of them had given up on their horses, carrying gleaming steel knives, their faces were bloodstained and exhausted, Sikong Yao Said: "Brother, retreat quickly, even if you become a pawn, we still have at least five thousand soldiers here, we will protect you and rush out."

"Um……"

Lin Muyu brought up Xuanyuan Sword and said, "Rush out together...By the way, where is Xu Jiantao's headquarters?"

"I don't know, the night is too dark, many people got separated, the feather book we just got, Wei Chou and Xu Jiantao each lead 5,000 people, and they are cruising nearby, do you want to send a retreat signal?"

"Um!"

Si Kongyao glanced away, and Fengxi behind him immediately took out an iron pipe from his arms, and rang the lead wire in the air. This is a signal flare specially made by Magic Crystal, and a blood-red light shot up into the sky. This kind of signal has never been seen before. I have used it before, but this time I have to use it.

The sound of horseshoes in the distance is getting closer and closer, and the light of the torch is getting closer and closer, and the dark merchant army in all directions has come to kill like a tide.

There is no need to even guess, the 100,000 merchant army must have been planned long ago, taking advantage of the opportunity of the end of the Longdan camp to make a fatal blow, this is to kill Lin Muyu and others here!

"Let's go."

Lin Muyu commanded everyone to retreat with a long sword in his hand. His eyes swept across the faces of Sikong Yao and Feng Xi intentionally or unintentionally. Sikong Yao was a saint king, but he had been running around for three days and three nights and lost a lot of power. Even Lin Muyu himself Similarly, nearly half of the fighting energy in the body was consumed, and those ordinary soldiers were even worse, even the hands holding the weapons were shaking.

The sound of horseshoes in the rear was getting closer and closer, but in front of them was a flat plain, and there was nowhere to escape.

Lin Muyu couldn't help a sharp pain in his chest. Is the elite veteran of the Gendan Battalion who has followed him for so many years really going to be buried in his hands?

Fengxi said loudly: "Shuai Lin, we can't get away, let's fight!?"

"No, 3,000 people from the front will go, and 2,000 people from the rear will follow me to fight at the rear."

"yes!"

But when the order was passed on, the torches in front remained motionless. Several commanders flew over, kneeling on the ground leaning on their long swords, each with red eyes: "Shuai Lin, I have been following you for many years, through life and death, and now a catastrophe is imminent." Don’t tell me, Commander Lin, you don’t want us veterans? If we don’t leave, we would rather die here with Commander Lin than leave!”

"Obey the military orders!"

Lin Muyu shouted in a low voice: "Don't forget, you are soldiers, obeying orders is your bounden duty! I order you to retreat west immediately and join Liu Buyi's infantry battalion!"

The commanders were trembling all over, and one of them said with tears in his eyes: "Shuai Lin, why should we deceive ourselves? The one who stays behind will die. It is Shuai Lin who should go, not us. The empire can live without us, but it cannot live without Shuai Lin." !"

Lin Muyu felt extremely uncomfortable, and said with red eyes: "The responsibility for today's defeat lies entirely with me. I underestimated the enemy, and I didn't think carefully. Since I have to stay, then prepare to fight. Killing one is enough. Give me one who died in battle without being killed, and I will punish him to take the responsibility of the spirit fire department when he arrives in the ghost realm of the underworld."

Everyone laughed.

Even Sikong Yao couldn't help laughing out loud, but there was more bitterness in the smile. She knew that today might be her last battle. Although Lin Muyu is at the Holy Heaven Realm, he is definitely not willing to give up his soldiers and escape alone. Lin Muyu may die from exhaustion, and he will definitely not abandon this brother, and he may die here.

Thinking of this, Sikong Yao's eyes turned red, and tears flowed down uncontrollably.

Lin Muyu slowly drew out the Xuanyuan Sword, his cloak rattling in the cold night, he turned to look at the phalanx of cavalry and spearmen hundreds of meters away, and said indifferently: "Don't forget the rules of our Long Dan camp, lay the world out for me Sword formation, resist the impact of iron cavalry and spearmen, be careful of archers, they will arrive soon."

"yes!"

Five thousand people quickly assembled on the plain, and Qiankun sword arrays formed by five hundred people quickly formed.

The sound of horseshoes became more and more intense. Song Liangcheng's subordinates, who looked like about five thousand cavalry, raised their sabers from a distance, shouted something, and charged straight over.

"Take the shock!"

Lin Muyu was at the very front of the sword array, and suddenly swept out the Xuanyuan Sword. Suddenly, a golden sword light swept across the ground. Nearly a hundred cavalry fell to the ground quickly. rushed over.

There was a faint feeling of fatigue in his arm. Lin Muyu took a deep breath and began to use his martial soul. The Seven Luminaries Immortal Sword enveloped Xuanyuan Sword, and shot out a sword energy about three meters long. In this way, it mainly focused on small-scale strikes, otherwise Dou Qi consumption is too fast.

"Ka Ka Ka..."

Three swords in a row, three cavalrymen fell off their horses, but the spear of the fourth cavalry hit Lin Muyu's chest straight.

"when!"

Sparks splashed, and the spear was shaken away by Chi Youjia. Lin Muyu turned around and swept him off the horse. At the same time, countless iron cavalry rushed past and hit the Qiankun sword formation behind, and the sound of killing was shocking. Rising from the sky, the soldiers of the Gendan Battalion who formed the sword array were already extremely weak. How could they withstand the impact of the iron cavalry battle array? Melee.

"Ayao, follow me closely."

Lin Muyu retreated while killing the enemy, and at the same time shouted loudly that he did not want Sikong Yao to die before him.

Si Kongyao sword danced with the Ice Xuan Jue, and the ice soul sword energy shot into the cavalry's body one after another, and quickly returned to Lin Muyu's side, saying: "Brother, there are too many of them, we can't resist."

"Since you can't escape, then kill one more person."

"Um!"

Lin Muyu suddenly opened his arms and shouted, "Crimson Crystal Dragon, come out to help me!"

"Roar……"

The dragon's majesty was a masterpiece, the red crystal dragon came through the air, opened its huge mouth and crushed a cavalryman who was rushing, then swung its huge head to throw him away, crawled down, and made a respectful gesture towards Lin Muyu.

"Kill the enemy at will!"

Lin Muyu didn't want to ride the Red Crystal Dragon, but ordered him to kill the enemy quickly.

"Roar!"

This is what Chi Jinglong wanted to hear the most, and he rushed into the cavalry group with his huge body.

At the same time, huge black shadows descended from the sky one by one, swaying sword energy into the crowd. It was the dragon cavalry regiment led by Situ Sen and Situ Xue who arrived, but there seemed to be not many of them, only a dozen of them.

"My lord, here we come!"

Situ Sen shouted: "What's going on now!?"

"Just in time!"

Lin Muyu said loudly: "Help in the battle and kill the enemy! Also, what happened to Xu Jiantao's troops?!"

"The 5,000 people led by Wei Chou were entangled by the opponent's 20,000 infantry shield soldiers. His subordinates just came from Xu Jiantao. There were only some sword soldiers from the merchant army around him. The number was about 8,000. He asked me to First come to reinforce the adults."

Lin Muyu frowned: "General Sen, you lead the three dragon knights to stay. General Xue, you lead the rest of the dragon knights to Wei Qiu's headquarters immediately, and help Wei Qiu resist the enemy."

"yes!"

"When will the team behind us arrive?"

"Their horses have been exhausted for a long time, and they will arrive after dawn."

"..."

Lin Muyu's heart seemed to be hit hard, and his heart was so blocked that he was about to vomit blood. While wielding his sword to kill the enemy, he said, "Let's fight and retreat, and slowly withdraw from the range of Hongyan City."

"yes!"

...

In the southern jungle area, the torches flickered, and there were more and more merchant troops, but the Qin army still had only a small number of troops left. Among the crowd, all the horses had collapsed from exhaustion. Xu Jiantao wore a commander's cloak, with three The gold stars were already stained red with blood, and his saber was even cut to pieces. Looking at the crowds coming from all directions, he murmured: "Why are there more and more of them?"

On the side, Mr. Wan Zhang Han said: "Your Majesty, this is the south of Hongyan City. Since there are 100,000 merchants ambushing here, the southern ambush must be used to break the rear. There will be at least 30,000 to 50,000 people. Their constant assault to the north is to form a siege, and the target is obviously Lin Shuai's troops."

"Shuai Lin..."

Xu Jiantao trembled slightly in sorrow, and said: "Head up the command, raise Lin Zishuai's flag, and attract them all over, we...we will stay here and block the ambush for Lin Shuai."

"But the king!"

Zhang Han gritted his steel teeth and said, "If that's the case, we won't be able to leave."

"Who can walk away tonight?"

Xu Jiantao smiled faintly, lowered his head and wiped the blood on the blade with the back of his cloak, and said, "Immediately send an order to let the brothers raise the commander-in-chief flag, if... if we die here, Commander Lin will definitely avenge us I hate it."

"Yes, Commander!"
