The Savage Lady Wants to Kill Me! Reborn on the Path of Cultivation

Duan Tianyang couldn't remember how many times he had repelled the enemy's charge...

At this moment, the only thought in his mind was to kill crazily, and he kept releasing attribute skills.

When the black sword in his hand shattered due to the backlash of his skills, he would use his fists, feet, and even his head to charge at the enemy...

Finally, the Jin army's fierce attack was repelled, and Duan Tianyang slowly regained consciousness.

He stood up shakily, and finally sat down on the ground...

At this moment, he no longer felt tired, and even couldn't feel his own existence. His limbs and body were completely numb...

Looking up at the sky, I saw that night had fallen.

Looking around, corpses were piled up layer upon layer, in some places the piles were almost up to people's knees.

Soon, dozens of people stood up from the pile of corpses. Their bodies were covered in the black and red color of dried blood, and they stood like evil spirits.

Duan Tianyang groped for a steel knife on the ground and pointed it at the people around him.

"Sir, it's us!" dozens of people shouted in horror.

Duan Tianyang carefully identified them and found that they were wearing the armor of the Hongxing Army. He was unable to speak, and the steel knife in his hand fell down weakly.

It's not that he didn't want to talk, but he really didn't have the strength.

"Sir, the enemy has retreated... We... We really blocked the enemy's attack..."

The dozens of survivors of the Hongxing Army looked at the Jin Army hastily retreating down the hillside, their faces filled with unspeakable joy and their eyes moist, as if they had just escaped from the scythe of the god of death.

Duan Tianyang looked into the distance and saw that the Jin army had already retreated across the mountain.

This day-long battle ended with the Jin army's voluntary retreat. For both sides, this day was long and painful.

In this battle, the Hongxing Army suffered heavy losses, with nearly two thousand casualties, of which fifteen hundred died heroically and more than three hundred were seriously injured. Almost no one escaped unscathed.

On the other hand, although the Jin army was the main attacking party, its losses were even more severe, especially the First Corps that attacked the West Mountain, which lost almost half of its troops.

Even the Second and Third Corps suffered about 30% casualties, which shows that this fierce battle was a heavy blow to both sides.

The situation of the Hongxing Army was even more serious. Most of the original 3,000-man defense force had been lost in this battle, and now there are only over a thousand people left.

The difficulty of the next war can be imagined...

When Gu Jianhong, Lu Jingyuan, Hua Duoer, Zhu Wu and others found Duan Tianyang, he was sitting on the ground, holding Zhang Tao's head tightly, with a blank look in his eyes...

Finally, with the help of everyone, he returned to his residence with difficulty.

It was only the first day of the war, and Duan Tianyang was already so exhausted, and Zhang Tao was unfortunately killed in the battle...

Lu Jingyuan, Hua Duoer, and Zhu Wu felt sad, and tears welled up in their eyes...

Gu Jianhong seemed relatively calm, because he had foreseen such an outcome.

It was a miracle that they could withstand the fierce attacks of the Jin army for a whole day.

Three thousand versus thirty thousand, there was a huge disparity in strength between the two sides, and this gap could not be made up by martial arts.

No matter how high your cultivation level is, you will be exhausted when facing ten thousand enemies.

Hua Duo carefully poured a cup of tea, helped Duan Tianyang up, and fed him mouthful by mouthful.

As the tea went down his throat, Duan Tianyang gradually regained consciousness, but was then ached all over. Every bone and muscle felt as if they had been whipped.

He felt a heaviness in his chest, and then a mouthful of blood rushed up his throat and he spat it out.

In fact, he was not injured, and the blood was entirely caused by overwork.

Everyone present was horrified when they saw this scene, and asked one after another: "Brother Tian, ​​what happened to you? Where are you injured?"

After Duan Tianyang spat out the blood, he felt much more relaxed. He smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying weakly: "I'm fine, just... a little tired..."

He was not just a little tired, but too tired. Today's fierce battle had drained him completely.

Seeing Duan Tianyang's originally pale face gradually recover, the tense nerves in everyone's hearts were slightly relaxed.

Duan Tianyang looked down at his empty arms and blurted out, "Where's Brother Zhang?"

"Master Zhang has been laid to rest..."

Speaking of this, Lu Jingyuan and Hua Duoer couldn't stop crying.

Duan Tianyang's nose also felt sore for a while. After calming down, he continued to ask: "How many people do we have left now?"

Everyone looked at each other, and finally Zhu Wu responded softly: "Brother Tian, ​​there are only about 1,100 brothers left on our side. If you count the seriously injured, the total number is about 1,500."

Duan Tianyang bit his lip. He was too optimistic about the Jin army and underestimated the difficulty of this battle.

He took a few deep breaths and said to everyone, "Tonight, the Jin army will definitely launch a night attack. They know that our army is short of numbers, and after today's fierce battle, our soldiers are exhausted. They will never miss this opportunity."

Zhu Wu nodded and said solemnly: "Brother Tian is right. We must be on high alert tonight!"

Duan Tianyang clenched his fists, his eyes flashing with determination, and continued: "Fortune and honor are sought in danger. We can do the opposite and launch a surprise attack on the enemy camp under the cover of night."

When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked and looked at Duan Tianyang in surprise.

Although Duan Tianyang's physical strength had reached its limit, his mind was extremely clear.

He calmly explained: "The enemy is outnumbered and it is difficult for us to resist head-on. The only way is to outsmart them and capture the leader first. This is the most direct and effective strategy."

"But the enemy will definitely be on guard. I'm afraid that once we come down the mountain, we'll be exposed to enemy spies." Zhu Wu said worriedly.

Duan Tianyang took over the conversation: "That's right, the enemy must have spies on the mountain. But we have a secret passage leading down the mountain that we can use. As long as we go down the mountain through the secret passage, we can use the wheat field as cover, pass through the farmland, and enter the woods."

Gu Jianhong's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he added: "The Jin army's camp is located in the forest. As long as we can enter the woods, it will not be difficult to sneak into their camp."

Duan Tianyang nodded, looking exhausted. He closed his eyes and said, "Whether the enemy launches a surprise attack tonight or not, we must assassinate the enemy commander. This is our last chance. The action is scheduled for 2 a.m., which is the hour of the Ox. I need to sleep for a while, and call me when the time comes."

Obviously, Duan Tianyang was extremely tired. After everyone responded, Hua Duoer gently helped him lie down and said softly, "Brother Tian, ​​you can rest at ease."

Duan Tianyang responded weakly, and fell into a deep sleep in the blink of an eye.

Zhu Wu looked at Gu Jianhong and asked in a low voice: "Master Gu, will the enemy really launch a sneak attack tonight?"

After thinking deeply, Gu Jianhong nodded slowly: "It's very likely."

Zhu Wu rubbed his hands anxiously, his face full of worry: "We only have more than a thousand brothers, and they are all exhausted after today's battle. How can we resist the enemy's night attack?"

Gu Jianhong patted Zhu Wu on the shoulder and consoled him: "You and your brothers can just rest assured. We will handle the enemy forces that will attack tonight."

Zhu Wu asked in astonishment: "But Master Gu, you only have a dozen men..."

"That's enough." Gu Jianhong answered confidently, "After this battle, we are exhausted, and the enemy is not relaxed either. If they come to attack tonight, they will not send out their entire army. At most, they will just send a small group of troops to sneak up the mountain."

Hearing this, Zhu Wu breathed a sigh of relief and said with a wry smile: "If that's the case, then that's good."
