Chapter 149 Let's Stay Together
We must not let this beast tide cause huge losses to our side.
If the more than 18,000 soldiers of our side suffer losses due to the beast tide, then the next plan will be affected.
Not to mention follow-up plans, the mere loss of these Zhenbei soldiers was not something he could accept.
After all, Zhenbei's soldiers were carefully selected and trained, which took a lot of time and energy.
Therefore, they must be given enough time to retreat.
At the same time, we must also try our best to stop the beast tide, or delay the beast tide's attack.
Only in this way can Li Cunxiao and Luo Cheng be bought more time, allowing them to anger the spirit beasts that are driving the beast tide, thereby changing the attack direction of the beast tide.
As long as the attack direction of the beast tide is shifted from their own side to those Tianwu barbarians, their next plan will be extremely smooth.
With the help of the power of the beast tide, the 20,000 War Tiger Army and 60,000 Tianwu Four Guards will be directly defeated.
Our side only needs to carry out last-ditch attacks and clean up the aftermath after the beast tide ends, and achieve the greatest victory with minimal casualties.
So the most important thing right now is to block the attacks that delay the beast tide.
Thinking like this, the intense murderous intent in Lu Fan's eyes turned into a look of determination.
The beast tide must be blocked and delayed.
At this time, the rumbling sound behind him was getting closer and closer, and the ground was shaking more and more.
It was obvious that the charging beast was getting closer and closer to them.
Although they retreated quickly, these ferocious beasts were even faster.
After all, Beimang Mountain is the home of these ferocious beasts, and they are naturally hunters in the mountains and forests.
When Lu Fan looked solemn, Geng Yan on the right said in a deep voice:
"Lord, please follow our people and continue to retreat. The two of us will stay to delay the beast tide."
After Geng Yan finished speaking, Dai Lang on the left also said: "My lord, the brothers who are trapped in the camp will be here soon."
"We two brothers who are leading the trapped camp will take action together. We should be able to hold back the beast tide."
Looking at the two people comforting him, Lu Fan took a deep breath and shook his head.
"No need to persuade, I will stay with you to delay and stop the beast tide."
Hearing this, Geng Yan and Dai Lang suddenly became anxious.
After all, Li Cunxiao and Luo Cheng gave death orders before leaving, asking them to protect their lord no matter what.
It would be too dangerous for the lord to stay with them to stop the beast tide.
After all, this is a beast tide, no joke.
They knew clearly that they could not stop the beast tide with their own strength, so they could only try their best to delay it.
This is already their greatest ability.
While blocking and delaying the beast tide, he was protecting the lord at the same time, but he was simply unable to do both.
Just when they were eager to reject Lu Fan's proposal to stay, Lu Fan directly revealed his true cultivation level.
Sensing Lu Fan's burst of cultivation, a look of shock and disbelief suddenly flashed across the faces of Geng Yan and Dai Lang.
They clearly remembered that their lord was only at the Condensing Yuan Realm, so how could he suddenly become the fourth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm?
Just when the two of them were extremely shocked, Lu Fan chuckled and said:
"Now you should rest assured... My current cultivation level is enough to protect myself. If I encounter danger, I will definitely have no problem escaping."
Seeing that the two of them still wanted to speak, Lu Fan waved his hand and said without doubt:
"The situation is urgent, so it's been decided. You don't need to say anything. If Jingsi blames you, I will tell him."
He knew that Geng Yan and Dai Lang were worried about their own safety, so he did not blame them.
But what we have to face now is a tide of beasts, and one more person means more strength.
And he also has other means, which play a much greater role than Geng Yan and Dai Lang.
Seeing Lu Fan's resolute attitude, Geng Yan and Dai Lang felt helpless.
Although he had not been summoned for a long time, they also knew the character of the Lord Lu Fan.
It's definitely the kind of thing that can't be doubted.
Especially at such a critical moment, the two could only nod helplessly and agree.
But they have already made a decision secretly in their hearts.
If they encounter unavoidable danger later, even if they fight to be punished by Lu Fan, they will still take Lu Fan to escape at all costs.
In their hearts, no one can compare with Lu Fan.
Even if all the more than 18,000 Zhenbei soldiers were wiped out, it would still be less than a hair on the lord's body.
While Lu Fan and the other three were discussing like this, Zhao Tianhu and Lang Zhengfei also felt the approaching beast tide.
For a moment, they were extremely anxious, and they immediately activated their cultivation and shouted loudly behind them:
"Go faster...throw away all the useless things on your body, and throw away all the things that affect your speed."
It's a matter of life and death at this moment, and some useless things will only affect the speed.
After all, most of these Zhenbei soldiers are ordinary monks in the body refining realm and cannot use storage rings or storage bags at all.
Even if they can use it, there aren't that many storage bags that can be distributed to them.
Therefore, dry food and other supplies needed for the march were carried in the package.
There are a lot of things in these packages, which now becomes a factor affecting the speed.
Usually these packages must be carried with you and cannot be discarded.
But at this moment, saving lives is the most important thing.
That's why Zhao Tianhu and Lang Zhengfei issued such an order.
After receiving such an order, the soldiers of the Zhenbei Army who were fleeing quickly did not hesitate at all.
They took off their packages and threw them into the mountains and forests on both sides.
After all, only by throwing them to the sides can they avoid reaching their companions in the back, and at the same time, these packages can also delay the pace of some ferocious beasts.
After all, these packages contain the dry food they carry with them, including some special dry food containing energy.
These special dry food containing energy have a great attraction to some small ferocious beasts.
The three people of Lu Fan in the back also heard the orders issued by Zhao Tianhu and Lang Zhengfei.
However, Lu Fan did not stop them, but a trace of appreciation flashed in his eyes.
As a captain who directly led the soldiers, he must have the courage and courage to make temporary decisions.
As long as it is beneficial to his own decision, he can make his own decision in this situation.
This is the courage that a military leader should have.
Although doing so can increase the speed of retreat a lot, it is still impossible to be faster than the beast tide.
So the next step depends on himself, Geng Yan, Dai Lang and the other three, as well as the brothers in the Xianzhen Camp.
Thinking of this, Lu Fan looked at Geng Yan and Dai Lang on his left and right and said in a deep voice:
"Let's stay here. The beast tide will come soon. Continuing to retreat will be more passive."
After the voice fell, Lu Fan stopped first, and Geng Yan and Dai Lang also stopped without hesitation.
Lu Fan stopped and turned to look in the direction where the beast tide was sweeping, and the Wind and Thunder Sword appeared in his hand.
Geng Yan and Dai Lang stood on both sides of Lu Fan, one on the left and one on the right, and also sacrificed their own magic weapons...
