Chapter 1104: The Battle of the Daohua River

At night, seven o'clock.

Everyone went online one by one, and Qinghe County became lively and prosperous again. With the addition of people who came one after another, Yilu gathered nearly 7,000 people this time, which is already considered a force that cannot be ignored in the version map. The strength has increased, and more and more players have been informed that they have arrived in Qinghe County, so that when everyone is online, there are almost 250,000 players in the county.

These are all, because in this type of version activities, some players also like to fight in the way of "loose people", looking for those sporadic Daxiang Dynasty and rebel forces on the map to hunt, so as not to avoid the brigade The drag of the march of men and horses, and once the opportunity is good, you can have a big mouthful of food. In fact, if I am not the leader of the Liuhuo Legion and the deputy ally of Yilu, I would also like to do this. Acting with the main force, the constraints are too many up.

After all, playing games, who wants to listen to orders? Not everyone likes to do things in their own way.

"Get out of town."

I jumped down from the top of the city, and said in a deep voice: "The Flowing Fire Legion, the whole army is attacking, and the target is the city of Hedong County."

"Yes, my lord!"

Players also came out of the city in an endless stream. Lin Xi rode a white deer, walked in front of Yilu, and followed behind me so not too far, no matter what, once there was a big battle, he was really willing to fight desperately for the Liuhuo Legion A powerful player guild must be a deer, after all, it is considered a family.

...

half an hour later.

People all over the mountains and plains left the border of Qinghe County and entered the territory of Hedong County. Just after we entered a vast fertile field, we saw some sporadic Xuanyuan Empire troops retreating, and groups of wounded soldiers approached in twos and threes. The Legion Emblem is a soldier of the Yinping Legion in Lingnan Province, belonging to the men and horses under Nangongchi's command.

"stop!"

Zhang Lingyue suddenly shot an arrow and landed at the feet of a group of wounded soldiers, saying: "Come here, stop and accept the questioning of the Liuhuo Legion!"

"Floating Fire Legion?"

A veteran's eyes glowed, and he hurriedly raised the torch high: "Excuse me... is the Liuhuo Legion coming to reinforce Hedong County?"

"Go forward and ask."

"yes!"

The old soldier came with a group of wounded soldiers, there were hundreds of them, all of them were wrapped in gauze, and I checked it with the eyes of Shifang Huolun for the first time, and it was indeed a real injury, so there is a high probability of death. He ruled out being a spy, so he frowned and said, "Tell me, where did you come from, and why did you retreat?"

The veteran looked at the three golden general stars on my neckline, his heart trembled, and he hurriedly knelt down on one knee: "All the horses of the 11th Battalion of the Fifth Corps of the Silver Screen Corps have a visit to Bei Lianghou!"

The rest of the soldiers knelt down one after another, seeing Feng Canghai, Zhou Datong, Penghaoren, Zixiong and other players beside them couldn't help but look sideways. Will you not envy the identity and status in front of me?

"Get up."

I raised my hand and asked, "Tell me, how is the battle going?"

"A battle is raging on the Daohua River."

The old soldier gritted his teeth and said: "According to His Majesty's order, nearly half of the Yinping Legion's troops arrived at the Daohua River and immediately set up a defensive line, resisting the Daxiang Dynasty's cavalry along the way, lest they cross the river and continue to invade north, but our troops are only as strong as the opponent's Less than one-tenth, it was too hard to resist. Every second, many soldiers were killed or injured. Commander Nan Gongchi ordered the injured people to retreat by themselves and go to Qinghe County to seek shelter. Our army has no manpower left Escorting the wounded."

I frowned: "Where is Commander Nangong Chi?"

"Iron Dragon Bridge!"

The old soldier said in a deep voice: "The iron cavalry of the Daxiang Dynasty wanted to capture the Tielong Bridge time and time again, relying on this bridge to drive straight in, our Lord Commander led a heavy army to guard the Tielong Bridge for two days and two nights, my lord , please hurry up and lead the Fire Legion to help, otherwise... the Silver Screen Legion will really be wiped out!"

"knew."

I stretched out my hand and pointed backwards, and said, "We have already cleared the passage to Qinghe County from here, and there is no danger. Go to Qinghe County as soon as possible."

"yes!"

...

After watching a group of wounded soldiers walk away, I took a deep breath and said, "Let's go, the target, Daohua River, Tielong Bridge."

"Yes, my lord!"

Everyone hurried on the road again, and the further we went, the more wounded and defeated soldiers we encountered. It can be imagined that the battle ahead was not ordinary, but just ten minutes later, we could already see the front from a distance. There was a scene of flames on the Daohua River, and when I was concentrating, I could already hear the sound of spears colliding and killing.

"Accelerate the march!"

Pulling the reins of Wu Xiezhi, I rushed out first, while the iron hooves rolled behind me. Whether it was the Flowing Fire Legion or the player's phalanx, they all began to increase their speed greatly.

Straight ahead, after rushing out of the jungle, a mighty river lay ahead, with fast-flowing water.

Daohua River, a large river that divides Lingnan Province into two, has dozens of tributaries. It is this Daohua River that irrigates thousands of miles of fertile soil in Lingnan Province on both sides, making this place a land of fish and rice that everyone envies. At that time, this Daohua River also blocked powerful enemies, protected the people behind it, and exerted its residual heat.

On the Daohua River, the currents and eddies are turbulent. Not to mention human beings wading through the water, even ordinary boats may not be able to withstand such rapid currents. It is precisely because of this that the Silver Screen Army can hold back for so long Just on the Daohua River, there is a long bridge lying on the river like a long dragon spanning the two banks. It is a stone bridge with a certain age, named Tielong Bridge.

On the north bank of the Tielong Bridge, countless soldiers of the Yinping Legion were fighting bloody battles. The shield soldiers in the front row fell down in a row, and the archers in the back row fell like rain. The soldiers guarding the bridge caused a violent impact. Not only that, the river under the bridge also kept circling eddies, and the water flowed like iron halberds and long swords, shooting and killing the soldiers guarding the bridge continuously and falling into the water .

In the river water, there is a golden charm shining brightly, which has been cast by someone.

"That's it..."

Zhang Lingyue couldn't help gasping, and said: "Sir, this Daohua River is not easy to guard. The river water has obviously been tampered with by the sorcerers of the Daxiang Dynasty. Tielong Bridge is the largest bridge in Lingnan Province. The bridge is even and stable. , and the bridge deck is wide enough to accommodate dozens of cavalry in parallel, which is very suitable for the iron cavalry of the Daxiang Dynasty to charge, even if it is replaced by our Liuhuo Legion, I am afraid that the loss will be huge."

"Lead the Shenbow Battalion and the Iron Bu Battalion, and prepare more spears with inscription patterns. We have no choice."

"Yes, my lord!"

So, just as I passed by and entered the Yinscreen Legion's position, I saw a general wearing a commander's emblem staggering towards him. It was Nan Gongchi. His face was covered with blood, and his forehead seemed to have been shot by an arrow. , just broke, but the arrow has not been pulled out, bleeding profusely, and a large area of ​​his chest is burnt black, obviously he was hit by the opponent's spell, and he rushed to me in such a stride, regardless of the past differences between us, that's it He knelt down in front of me on one knee, and reached out to hold my hand firmly.

"Marquis of Beiliang... Marquis of Beiliang..."

His voice trembled: "The Liuhuo Legion is finally here, finally here... I beg Bei Lianghou to lead the Liuhuo Legion to replace the Yinscreen Legion immediately, and leave a little spark for the Yinscreen Legion!"

I nodded: "Commander Nangong, the night is too dark for me to see clearly, but how is the situation of the Silver Screen Legion now?"

"What else can I do..."

With a wry smile, he stood up straight with the support of two ten thousand captains, a little lost, and said: "I have resisted Daxiang's cavalry here for several days. The army attacked one after another, and my imposing first-class silver screen army is known as 300,000 elites, but now it may not even reach 30,000."

"knew."

I nodded and waved my hand: "Zhang Lingyue, immediately command the Liuhuo Legion to enter the position, take over the position of the Yinping Legion, and set up a camp thirty miles behind, so that the brothers of the Yinping Legion can recuperate and rest."

"Yes, my lord!"

"Marquis of Beiliang."

As soon as Nangongchi grabbed my hand, with tears in his eyes, he said: "I, Nangongchi, died before you... I'm sorry, but starting today, half of Nangongchi's life will belong to you, Marquis of Beiliang. There is no other way to drive."

I nodded and smiled: "I'm just following the king's order. Commander Nangong, please go to rest and get ready. Maybe in case... our Liuhuo Legion is defeated, you need your Silver Screen Legion to help us."

"Well, definitely!"

Nan Gongchi led the people back down, while Zhang Lingyue led the elite of the Liuhuo Legion to go up. Groups of soldiers from the Tiebu Battalion, carrying heavy shields and spears, stood in formation on the north bank of the Tielong Bridge. The spears pointed straight to the cavalry of the Daxiang Dynasty in the south, and behind them was the densely packed Shenbow Battalion. Now each bow was drawn into a full moon, facing the river bank in the south.

"Heavy artillery battalion."

I looked at the south bank and said, "Set up the heavy artillery on the bank and prepare to bombard the enemy troops on the south bank."

"Yes, my lord!"

The commander of the heavy artillery battalion, Ling Chong, clasped his fists in his dark armor and said, "This subordinate will do it now!"

...

Not long after, the Daxiang army was silent for about ten minutes after the Liuhuo Legion changed defense, and immediately launched an attack. Groups of iron cavalry charged step by step. Under the volley of arrows, the Daxiang cavalry kept falling to the ground, but the charge did not stop, as if they were determined to break through the defense line and enter the north bank.

"Puffy—"

On both sides, the artillery fire of the Liuhuo Legion was fired.

However, when the fiery red shells hit the center of the Daohua River, they continued to shake and shatter, as if they had hit an invisible barrier. There were golden runes flickering in the air, obviously set in the heart of the river. There is a restriction, similar to an enchantment, and my artillery fire can no longer beat it.
