Chapter 207 Charge

The wind stopped, and a faint light appeared in the sky. More than 80 demon soldiers and more than 100 Xuanfu soldiers met on the official road. . ..

Six Pangshan disciples stopped in the first row, and the real Xuanfu cavalry led by Huang Duwei was dozens of steps away. In the middle stood the solitary talisman master Liu Ding.

Mu Xingqiu wanted to start a battle directly, but Liu Ding stopped him. According to convention, the Xuanfu army had to perform a whole set of rituals before the battle. The most important content was to burn paper talismans one by one to strengthen the power of the talisman weapons and armor in a short time and increase the will to kill.

If the soldiers really had the will to kill.

The six Taoists in the front row were not affected by the low-level talismans, but the hundred soldiers behind them only thought about not being killed, and had no idea of ​​killing demons. They saw from a distance that the demons coming from the opposite side were really a group of living demons.

The demon soldiers had no mounts. More than 80 people approached on foot, and did not line up. The leader was walking in the front, and ordinary demon soldiers were gathered behind him.

The demon soldiers were all tall, and the armor they wore was made of animal skins, bones, and horns. The weapons in their hands were similar, with hammers and clubs accounting for the majority. They looked large and heavy, and could easily break iron and stone.

The Xuanfu Army soldiers touched the talisman helmets on their heads, and felt that they were not safe at all.

The demon soldier leader was a real giant, at least as tall as two adult humans, with the skeleton of an unknown animal on his head, and two huge long horns piercing the sky, making him look even taller. He had a dark and hairy face, deep eye sockets, and slow and steady steps, but one step was equivalent to four or five steps of an ordinary person.

The giant held a large bone claw that matched his body in his right hand, and a bunch of round things in his left hand.

About two miles away, the demon soldiers stopped, and the giant leader sneered a few times, raised his left arm and threw the things in his hand over. His strength was as great as a slingshot, and the string of things flew high and passed over the heads of the first row of humans. Accurately fell into the crowd behind.

Five human heads, with faces frozen with extreme horror at the moment before death, warned the human side: the demon soldiers are invincible.

The soldiers panicked all of a sudden. Captain Huang covered his mouth and almost vomited. He had participated in the war, but that was more than ten years ago, and the heads cut off as trophies were demon soldiers, not humans.

Many soldiers would have turned their horses and fled if they had not been stunned. At this moment, the talisman master Liu Ding raised a paper talisman in his hand and turned it into ashes in the air. The pre-war ceremony was completed, "Indestructible! Invincible! Forward, soldiers! Soak the earth with the blood of the enemy, and sacrifice the holy talisman with the heart of the enemy! Forward, soldiers!"

The soldiers of the Xuanfu Army felt a gust of cold wind brushing past them.

They were still afraid and couldn't even hold their swords and guns steadily, but they still rode forward, as if there was a more terrifying force behind them urging them.

Shen Hao looked back. "This talisman master is still useful. The soldiers are following us. We can attack now."

"No hurry. The demon soldier has something to say."

The flying demon that was hovering in the air landed on the ground. With a spear in one hand and a small shield in the other, he raised his head and let out a piercing scream, and opened his mouth to speak in human language: "The Supreme Demon King of All Heavens has issued an order. Those who resist will die, those who evade will die, those who flee will die, those who are disrespectful will die, and those who are arrogant will die. Only humans on all fours can be pardoned!"

The soldiers driven by the talisman stopped, and the fear of the demon tribe still prevailed.

The giant monster raised his bone claws, his voice hoarse and rough. As if it had been burned by fire, he deliberately said loudly in human language: "Brothers, breakfast is delivered to your door. If you are thirsty, there is blood, and if you are hungry, there is meat. Come on!"

The demon soldiers roared in unison, followed the leader forward, and gradually increased their speed.

The only remaining hairy unicorn in Duanliu City had never been on the battlefield. It treaded restlessly on the spot, as frightened as the Xuanfu Army soldiers behind it.

Mu Xingqiu whispered to the Taoist priests around him: "It is better to let the demon soldiers escape than to show your magic power."

He reached out and stroked the hairy unicorn's neck, treating it as a horse, then raised his spear in his right hand and shouted loudly: "Charge, Xuanfu Army! Defeat fear, defeat those flesh and blood!"

Mu Xingqiu was the first to rush out. The hairy unicorn had some unicorn blood and accelerated faster than ordinary horses. It felt the strong will from the rider, and most of its fear disappeared at once. It raised its horned head and let out a wolf-like roar. Even Huang Duwei, who was most familiar with it, had never heard it, proving that it was indeed not an ordinary deer.

This roar finally aroused the fighting spirit of the Xuanfu Army soldiers, and the effect of the talisman regained the upper hand. The soldiers raised their swords and guns, urged their horses forward, and chased instead of following the six people in front.

Talisman Master Liu Ding stayed where he was. He was an assistant rather than a fighter. He would continue to burn paper talismans to encourage the frontline soldiers. He was only worried about one thing. Talisman weapons and armor were not many, and they were all low-grade goods. They could only be used once. If they were stained with demon blood, they would lose the power of the talismans and become ordinary weapons and armor. General Mu and his men were not enough. If the Xuanfu Army soldiers behind were unwilling to fight bravely, this battle would still be a disastrous defeat.

The flying monsters in the middle of the two armies flew into the sky, circling and screaming loudly to cheer for their own demon soldiers.

Mu Xingqiu rode Mao Qilin and ran in the front, staring at the giant monster leader in the front row of the enemy. He had no thoughts and treated this battle as a fight when he was a child.

He was not afraid of the demon soldiers, not entirely because he was a Pangshan Taoist priest and could cast spells to protect himself at any time. His fighting spirit came from the tenacity and pride he had since childhood. Even if there was a huge gap in strength between him and the opponent, he would not admit defeat. Fighting a group of demon soldiers was just a small test.

He didn't even care if there were real soldiers following him. He did what he should and could do. He was not a real general and had no other means to motivate his soldiers. He could only lead them and chant some spells.

When Mu Xingqiu shouted "charge", he chanted a spell in his heart. The Nianxin Department mainly focused on illusions. Among the dozens of spells he had learned, there were quite a few related to stirring up emotions. He thought he would never use them, but he didn't expect that there would be a day when he would lead human soldiers to charge at the demon soldiers.

He hadn't yet mastered the Nine Changes of Leading Beasts, and hadn't even reached the first level of illusion. The power of the spell was actually not that great, but in special circumstances, with the help of talismans, it produced miraculous effects.

Taoist priests such as Shen Hao followed him. Hundreds of Xuanfu Army soldiers also followed him, shouting "kill" in unison. As long as General Mu didn't fall, they would not lose their fighting spirit.

The distance of two miles disappeared quickly. Mu Xingqiu selected the leader of the demon soldiers, and the giant monster also selected the human general. He roared, and his thick feet stomped on the ground with a bang. There were still more than ten steps between them. He threw the bone claw in his hand.

The end of the bone claw was connected to an iron chain. The other end was tied to the giant monster's arm.

The giant monster shouted in the demon language, which probably meant "hit". He did not slow down his pace and rushed towards Mao Qilin, as if he wanted to knock it away directly.

Mu Xingqiu was wearing a black armor that he was not used to. Most of his face was hidden behind the helmet, but it did not affect his vision. He saw the huge bone claw flying towards him. He did not know how to use a spear. It was the simplest move, just thrust the spear directly at the bone claw.

The spear was close to the height of the two people, the iron spear head was two feet long, and the spear shaft was made of wood. But after being blessed by the talisman, it became as hard as iron. As long as it was not stained with demon blood, it could last for a long time.

The talisman spear met the bone claw, and the giant leader leaped up. This was not a move, but his habitual way of fighting, throwing out the bone claw. Then he used himself as a weapon to rush at the enemy.

So far, he has not met an opponent. With these two simple actions, he won respect and appreciation among the monsters and became the leader of a team.

"Puff!" The giant watched the bone claw being pierced, and the spear hung on his weapon and stabbed towards him. He roared and did not take any evasive measures. He wanted to avenge it.

Mu Xingqiu is a Taoist priest. After years of meditation and practice, he has been instilled with the importance of magic again and again-even the mantra and boxing are a kind of magic, but he has to admit that he prefers this kind of battle with swords and guns. The more hideous the enemy's face is, the more excited his fighting spirit is.

The spear continued to move forward, piercing the giant's bone armor and piercing his heart. It ran more than ten steps with its heavy body and bone claws before it broke under the weight of the monster's blood.

The monster soldiers behind were stunned. They never thought that their leader would die so easily, but they would not retreat. Instead, they were filled with indignation and revenge, and their roars became louder.

Mu Xingqiu threw away half of the spear handle and drew out the big sword behind him. For a magic weapon, it seemed too big and too heavy, but it was the most suitable in a battle of weapons.

Mu Xingqiu rushed into the group of monster soldiers and cut a monster soldier in two with the first sword. The sword was invincible and he could hardly feel any resistance.

The two armies met, and several Taoists rushed out of a narrow passage. The Xuanfu Army soldiers behind finally believed what General Mu said: the monster soldiers were also flesh and blood.

The actual contact was not the same as imagined. General Mu and his men could easily pierce a hole in the demon soldiers. Their weapons felt numb when they met the hard bone armor, but the demon soldiers had a small protective area, and there was still a large area of ​​exposed areas. The swords and spears could slash and bleed, and even kill them.

The hairy unicorn was too tall, and the big sword still seemed short. Mu Xingqiu simply jumped to the ground, patted the hairy unicorn on the buttocks, let it run out of the battlefield, and held the sword with both hands, slashing vigorously in the group of demon soldiers.

He was a warrior. After this battle, no Xuanfu Army soldier doubted how this young guy became a general. When they knew that General Mu was actually a Taoist priest, they couldn't believe it for a long time, because they saw him fight fearlessly with their own eyes, and his crazy posture was more like a demon than a human.

The demon soldiers were defeated. Outside an inconspicuous small town in the southeast of Xijie Country, the demon army experienced their first defeat since they broke through Pangshan. However, at that time and for a long time afterwards, neither the winner nor the loser noticed the importance of this battle.

A javelin shot from the air. Mu Xingqiu turned around and was about to push it away, but found that it had been blocked by a spear. Shen Hao nodded to him on his horse. His spear was still there. He had killed several demon soldiers, but he didn't use all his strength like Mu Xingqiu.

Shen Hao's nod was not just a greeting, but also a salute. Mu Xingqiu in front of him made him feel a little scared, but also admired him very much.

More than half of the demon soldiers on the ground had been killed or wounded, and only a few were left to flee into the wild in panic. The soldiers of the Xuanfu Army shouted and chased them closely to prevent the demon soldiers from escaping.

Only the flying demon managed to escape successfully, and a strange cry came out of its mouth, and it was unknown whether it was a bird's cry or a demon's language.

"Do you want to get rid of him?" Shen Hao asked. Several Taoists could kill the flying demon, but they had to cast a spell.

Mu Xingqiu, who was covered in blood, tried hard to control the killing in his heart. "No, let him go back and report that there is a small group of Xuanfu soldiers in Duanliu City who refuse to escape."

A flash of fire flashed in the sky, and the flying monster fell straight down.

A Taoist priest flew from the northeast.

Reinforcements arrived, but it was not the time Mu Xingqiu hoped for.
