Chapter 1364: The Battle of Juelang and the Blocking of the Battlefield!
Today's first update: Chapter 1364! 1/2!
...
How much supplies can a million-strong army have?
Countless, simply countless~
The tens of thousands of troops under the command of the Jurchen War King that Xu Kun and the others followed were all tasked with escorting arrows. They all had smiles on their faces. They never expected that such an easy task would fall on them!
The great heroes Xu Kun and Kong Changyao were naturally treated with the highest courtesy. Even the Jurchen War King kept grinning and looking at these two treasures with satisfaction!
The army set out and continued to move eastward, crossing the Ganggen Nur Lake. Soon, the towering Daxianbei Mountain and Yanshan Mountain could be vaguely seen!
The top leaders issued an order not to act rashly after entering the canyon, let alone provoke the various tribes in the mountains and cause unnecessary trouble!
In summary: hurry quietly and don't shoot!
These people, including the Jurchen War King who took in Xu Kun and the others, naturally did not know that the top leaders had already established contact with the Yanshan tribe, and they did not know that the Yanshan tribe, which had originally agreed to help them, had now turned to the human race under the tyranny of Thor!
Following the Xilamulun River, the mother river that gave birth to many wolf tribes, all the way east, across the two major mountain ranges, they can join forces with the Liaoxi wolf tribes, march south with more than 100 million soldiers, and directly take the Huaxia imperial capital base city!
Seeing the army enter the valley, Kong Changyao was so excited that he could not hide his excitement. Xu Kun, who was assigned the easiest task and did not even need to carry the goods, whispered: "Relax!"
Kong Changyao saw that no one was paying attention and asked: "When will we start?"
"Be patient, don't be impatient. We must win this battle and fight beautifully. If we don't let the enemy go too deep, how can we expand the results?"
Xu Kun asked other Jurchen soldiers for a marching map and pointed to a place and said: "Here is the ambush point!"
Kong Changyao looked carefully and saw that what Xu Kun pointed to was about two-fifths of the way into this canyon!
Now they are moving forward all the way, and when they reach that place, they will be blocked by a long high ridge in front, where they can hide thousands of soldiers without being discovered by the enemy!
"Juelang Ridge?" Kong Changyao's face couldn't help but become a little better: "This place name is a bit interesting. Is it destined by God?"
Xu Kun had also discovered this place name a long time ago, but this place name has its origin!
Juelangling is not exclusive to any mountain range of Yanshan or Daxianbei Mountain, but the intersection of two major mountain ranges!
The terrain there is a bit strange. Originally, the army marched along the bank of Xilamulun River, but after reaching Juelangling, Xilamulun River will flow to the south of Juelangling, where the terrain is dangerous, the water is turbulent, and the land path available for people to walk begins to shrink!
If you want to march from the south, except for the strong ones who can fly above the War King level, most of the others need to wade through the turbulent river!
Although Xilamulun River is the mother river of the wolf tribe, it does not mean that it will care for its children like a mother. As part of the Liaohe River, Xilamulun River often floods or dries up, and is moody!
This is precisely because there is a powerful water master entrenched in the Xilamulun River. If you want peace on both sides of the Xilamulun River, the wolf tribe needs to offer tribute to this mother river every year. If they are not satisfied, natural disasters will fall, making the wolf tribes that rely on this river to survive miserable!
During this march, the wolf army went around to the south, and the soldiers who had to wade through the Xilamulun River to advance would more or less be dragged into the water by the moody Xilamulun River Water Lord and enjoyed as tribute!
This is also one of the reasons why the wolf tribes that joined forces needed to send cannon fodder to go in front, using the lives of the weak to feed the Xilamulun River Water Lord, so that the army behind could pass smoothly!
In addition to the wolf army that had to wade through the river to advance around the south, there was another way to cross Juelang Ridge, which was the intersection of the northern part of Juelang Ridge and the highest peak of the Daxianbei Mountain, Huanggang Peak, where there was a long and narrow mountain road.
This mountain road was not only steep, but also had to face the Huanggang Mountain Clan, who was entrenched on Huanggang Peak and led by Huanggang Mountain Lord, at any time!
Like the Xilamulun River Water Lord, all creatures that passed through this mountain road would be regarded as prey and hunted by Huanggang Mountain Lord!
Xilamulun River Water Lord + Huanggang Mountain Lord, guarding the main traffic route connecting Liaodong and Liaoxi. In the history of the wolf tribe, there were many cases of annihilation here when they marched from east to west!
The name of Juelang came from this!
This is not to mention the fact that the major mountain tribes entrenched in Juelang Ridge will occasionally attack!
It can be said that even if a million troops pass through Juelang Ridge, they may not be able to pass safely!
These mountain tribes are like mountain bandits who occupy the mountains as kings. If they want to pass through here, they will leave money to buy their way through!
In response to this, the wolf army of up to 80 million people in the west joined together to respond by advancing in three armies, front, middle and back!
The front army of 10 million is all the troops under the command of some ordinary war kings. This part of the weak army is not only the cannon fodder for the attack on the imperial capital base city later, but also the tribute to satisfy the local natives!
Although the leaders of the war kings did not say it explicitly, it can be imagined that the local natives will not make a lot of money when the wolf tribe sends troops in large numbers this time!
The front army of 10 million people, before reaching the border of China, who knows how many will die!
What the 80 million wolf soldiers don't know is that there is an imperial army that is more terrifying than the local natives, also ambushed in Juelang Ridge!
The central army of 20 million people, led by the major king-level troops, is hundreds of kilometers away from the rear of the front army where Xu Kun and the others are, in order to deal with any changes in the front army!
The rear army and many beast corps, totaling 40 million people, are the main force attacking the imperial capital. They are all elite and are also a hundred miles away from the central army.
When Xu Kun and the others entered the canyon as the logistics troops of the front army, the rear army probably had not yet completed the army. It would take at least half a day to enter behind the central army!
The army is moving, not fast, but definitely not slow!
Xu Kun was bored staying in the back and rode to the Jurchen War King.
"My lord, I guess the vanguard is about to split up, right?"
The Jurchen War King nodded: "Information came from the front that the vanguard has begun to split up and enter the southern waterway and northern mountain road respectively. It is estimated that it will be our turn in three hours!"
"So should we take the waterway or the mountain road?" Xu Kun asked curiously.
The Jurchen War King smiled: "Go wherever it is safe. There are so many people in the front army to try and make mistakes. We just need to wait for the news from the front army!"
"The Water Lord of Xilamulun River and the Mountain Lord of Huanggang are moody. Who knows how much blood and flesh they need to devour to satisfy their appetites when they see my tribes marching out in large numbers today!"
Xu Kun pretended to understand, which made the Jurchen War King laugh: "Don't be nervous. It's all thanks to you two who got good results in the competition. For this trip, we just need to be transport soldiers safely. If there is any danger, there are people in front to block the knife for us. If something goes wrong, you two just hide behind me, I will protect you!"
If the camps were not in opposition, Xu Kun would be really moved by this leader!
It's a pity. Just like if the other party knew his identity, he would definitely explode. As a human, he can't have any goodwill towards these people!
On the battlefield, kindness to the enemy is irresponsible to comrades!
Xu Kun looked at the back of the Jurchen War King with pity, and said in a voice that only he could hear: "I will let you die...without any pain!"
Three hours passed quickly, including the Jurchen War King who led Xu Kun and his team, and the Wolf War Kings who had received good tasks in the previous competition with the outstanding performance of their subordinates ordered to stay in place!
As logistics soldiers, they naturally have to supply according to the needs of the front army!
"Let's take a break. After most of the vanguard troops have crossed the Juelang Ridge, it will be our turn to set off!" The Jurchen War King ordered his troops.
Everyone relaxed their vigilance, and some even took off their clothes and jumped into the Xilamulun River to take a bath and play!
It doesn't look like they are going to a big battle at all, it's more like going out for an outing!
Xu Kun showed a dangerous smile at the corner of his mouth.
With a wave of his hand, a group of shadows disappeared into the ground.
"Xiao Heizi, do your best to trap the central army in the shadows!"
Glancing at Kong Changyao, whose forehead was sweating, he said, "Be careful and stay close to me as much as possible!"
"Okay!"
And Xu Kun began to set up traps.
One peach blossom after another bloomed on the ground, turning into traps and disappearing on the ground. His high-profile approach naturally aroused the curiosity of the Jurchen war king.
"What are you doing?"
Xu Kun smiled innocently and said, "I am setting traps. If any blind mountain tribe takes advantage of our laziness to launch a surprise attack, my traps can stop them and prevent any danger!"
The Jurchen War King immediately gave a thumbs up: "You are indeed an excellent Wuhuan soldier who can escape from the Xifengkou battlefield and cross the Yanshan Mountains. I can't even compare to you in terms of your attentiveness!"
"Your Excellency is too kind!"
Xu Kun continued to set up the peach blossom array tirelessly. It is worth mentioning that this A-level trap skill has been strengthened through the [All Methods Correction] skill of the Saint's Knife after being included in the sea of learning!
Not only has the CD of the peach blossom spell been shortened to five seconds, but the total number of traps set has also been changed from the original level*1 to the current level*1!
Xu Kun has placed a total of 162 peach blossom arrays throughout the entrance!
The Jurchen War King couldn't help but check curiously: "Your trap skill is of high quality, even I find it difficult to find it!"
Xu Kun scratched his head and said: "This is an A-level trap skill book that I was lucky enough to get, which is my livelihood!"
"Not bad, not bad, with strong archery skills and good trap skills, if it weren't for wartime, you would definitely be a qualified hunter!"
That's right, aren't we waiting for the prey to step on the trap now!
"Sir, I'll go around to explore, so as to avoid accidents!"
Hearing this, the Jurchen War King stood up in awe, patted Xu Kun on the shoulder and affirmed: "In the future, you will be my right-hand man, and you will have a drink if I have a bite to eat!"
Xu Kun pretended to be moved, straightened his chest and said seriously: "Thank you for your kindness, I will go through fire and water in the future, and I will not hesitate!"
"Sir, I'm going!"
"Be careful, if there is any situation, come to me as soon as possible to report!"
Xu Kun nodded, then walked away.
"Phoenix·Lotus blooms with every step!"
In his traceless combat boots, Xu Kun's feet had turned into a pair of jade feet, and with every step he took, he would plant a poisonous lotus seed!
Xu Kun had a good grasp of the distance, trying to keep each poisonous lotus seed within ten yards of each other!
In this way, a single move can affect the entire body!
Under the satisfied gaze of the Jurchen War King, Xu Kun not only walked along the two roads of Nanshui and Beishan, but also went around the back, appearing to be particularly conscientious!
Little did he know, Xu Kun had already planted the poisonous lotus seeds in a circle!
And under the correction of the saint's carving knife, the maturity time of the poisonous lotus seeds has been shortened from the original ten minutes to the current five minutes!
Before the Chinese army arrived, the rear of the front army where Xu Kun and others were located had not moved out. The poisonous lotus seeds combined with the peach blossom formation had already surrounded them!
Just waiting to explode!
Just as I was drowsy waiting here, a sudden explosion echoed throughout the valley!
What's wrong, what happened?
The logistics department of the former army present was suddenly in chaos. A group of war kings immediately asked everyone to assemble, and the formation was in chaos, showing chaos!
Xu Kun's eyes flashed, he tightened his grip on the elemental bow, and shouted to Kong Changyao who was nervous at the side: "Do it!"
Having said that, he raised his bow and nocked an arrow, aiming at the many wolf war kings who were quickly organizing their armies!
One arrow, one person!
In an instant, clouds of blood mist exploded on the originally untouched battlefield!
The Jurchen War King who had absorbed Xu Kun and the others had not noticed the actions of Xu Kun and the two. After seeing the bodies of the War Kings exploding one after another in front of him, he immediately spread out his territory and stood high without looking back. The voice said: "Wocao, Woqu, hide behind me, something has happened!"
But when he shouted, he didn't get a response from Xu Kun.
He turned his head in confusion and saw Xu Kun shooting with an indifferent expression. The arrows that flew at high speed hit the war kings one after another!
Kong Changyao on the side was already holding a shield and sword in his hand, and he opened and closed it, killing the surrounding wolf soldiers who were in chaos!
"You...you guys!" The Jurchen War King's heart was shaken, and it was difficult to accept it for a while.
When Xu Kun heard this, he smiled, shot another war queen with one arrow, and replaced it with his own king of war crown!
The phoenix wings spread out and soared into the air!
Looking down at the whole place, under everyone's frightened eyes, the sound of thunder was heard rolling in the canyon!
"I am Xu Kun from the human race. I am here today to take your lives!"
As the words fell, Xu Kun's figure flashed on the spot, and between the light and shadow of the sword, like a cannonball falling, the wolf army was cleared out!
"run!"
The war kings in charge of logistics heard Xu Kun's name. They had just recovered from the thunder on the avenue and saw Xu Kun's familiar clothes. They still had the heart to fight. They immediately took off and headed in all directions. Run!
"Run? Don't even think about running away!"
"Xiao Jinzi, kill!"
The ferocious flames of the wilderness swept towards the flying war kings. Before they could even take off, they had already turned into balls of ashes and fell down!
"Frozen World·Xuanbing Longxiang!"
With a dragon's roar, an ice dragon condensed out of the sky, rising high in the air, blocking the entire sky into a curtain of ice!
The dissipating cold air made even those war kings stiffen and unable to move!
No one dared to resist, not only Xu Kun's identity blew up, but also the sound of bombings gradually expanded in the mountains and waterways ahead!
He tried to escape towards the rear, but what he encountered was the traps Xu Kun had already laid!
The poisonous lotuses bloomed, and their impact shot straight into the sky!
All targets at the center of the explosion were instantly swallowed up by the poisonous mist, leaving no trace of their corpses!
The ice dragon above looked down, blocking the entire sky. Frontally, Xu Kun and Kong Changyao seemed to be in a deserted place!
How can these cannon fodder logistics troops be their rivals? Especially after Xu Kun defeated all the war kings, Kong Changyao became even more unscrupulous with his strength!
After a series of killings, the sword of light was swung in all directions, causing blood to flow all over the ground. The Xilamulun River on the side was dyed with blood.
"now you!"
After Xu Kun strangled all the war kings, the only one left was the Jurchen war king.
"Why...why!" Jurchen War King Rusangkao said.
"Why?" Xu Kun put Da Shangchen's shadow on the other person's neck, giving him the last chance to speak!
"Why don't you just kill me? Why do you want me to know that you are the human Kun!"
His voice was filled with sobs. Compared to death, what made him more painful was the feeling of inviting a wolf into the house and being betrayed. It was as if the lives of the people around him were all lost because of him.
"I just don't want you to be a fool!"
"Everyone is their own master, I'm sorry!"
Uh-huh!
The shadow of the great Shang Chen passed by, and the dead body of the Jurchen War King fell to the ground.
"You clean up the mess here, and I'll block the road!"
