Born short-lived

The setting sun disappears on the skyline, and because it is cloudy, the night will be suffocating when the sun goes down.But now it is the dog days, and the ground is becoming more and more dull, which can make people sweat all over their backs.

The dead and others are lying in ambush in the bushes on the hill. Every tree is tied together by ropes, and the branches are also tied to the grass ropes that bind the trunks by ropes, so that they are crisscrossed. The ground formed a strange-looking giant net.

They were itchy all over from mosquito bites in the forest, and the tall grass and trees were not very breathable, and the thin shirts under the light armor had long been stuck to their backs tightly with sweat.

Fortunately, they didn't endure this sweltering stickiness for too long. A sky-penetrating monkey screamed in the southern sky. There was only a soft crackling sound, and a bright yellow light shone in the night sky. exploded.

"kill!"

The Sha'an people watching the fire from the other side of the mountain behind the spirit ghost army only had time to see a large bush on the hill on the right side of the spirit ghost army shaking rustlingly, the rustling of leaves was as sharp as a knife sharpening, a group of black shadows Shouts of killing seemed to pour out continuously from the woods, cutting straight to the rear of the army of spirit ghosts.

"What's going on!" the silver-armored knight with golden brown hair yelled angrily in jerky Sha'an words, "Didn't you say that they are at the end of their rope?"

"..." General Sha'an also seemed to have never expected that Hua Xu would have such an attack. With 50 troops beating the pass, he was able to spare his hands to attack them. "This... how is it possible..."

"How is it possible? Everyone is knocking on the door!" The silver armored knight jumped angrily, pointing to the bushes in the distance, "There are at least 10 people who told me about them before Absolutely can't take the lead? This... This is making people attack!"

General Sha'an was struggling to think about countermeasures, and was furiously scolded by the Daling knight, but he couldn't get angry at the people sent by Daling, so he gave him a cold look: "Master Enwei, why are you so panicked? The army definitely can't spare so many troops, it's just a bluff, trying to disperse our army's firepower at Zijing Pass."

"A feint?" Enwei laughed angrily at him, "Then the general will let him kill all the way from the rear of our army?"

The army of spirit ghosts is difficult to mobilize, and it would take half an hour to turn this group of beasts around, but there are less than [-] of them staying here. The lives of the living are at risk.

What's more, now that there are spirit ghosts working for them to take the place of dead ghosts, who else is willing to risk their lives?

When General Sha’an was in a dilemma, the knight snorted coldly when he saw that he didn’t speak, and said in a strange way: “I, Da Ling, is helping you, not to let you die, the general knows how difficult it is to breed a spirit ghost ? Just let someone chop melons and vegetables like this so generously?"

However, apart from Da Ling helping them train a group of breeders at the beginning, it didn't take much effort.

That's why these words sounded extremely harsh to the general's ears, and his tone was sullen; "Master Enwei said this because he has never fought against the Huaxu people before, and he doesn't know how tricky his troops are, and he never hits a stone with a pebble. , and our army is not familiar with the place here, so it is very easy to be ambushed. Their purpose is to lure our army away, if..."

"I'm afraid the general is too worried about gains and losses?" Enwei interrupted, "If you tell the hundred thousand spirit ghosts to turn around now, it's impossible to wipe out these mortal mortals!"

"There are not many of them in total, we can wait for them to be exhausted. My lord, you are playing in the enemy's arms!"

"Not many people?" Enwei's face turned pale with anger, "It's called not many people? Can you be held accountable if something goes wrong?! Don't forget that I was sent by His Highness! I am the Overseer!"

This person is Da Ling's knight of the golden monkey prince, and he is indeed not easy to provoke. Besides, although the Sha'an people are fighting this battle, everyone knows that the real boss is actually Da Ling.

He swallowed back the scolding that General Sha'an was about to utter, his face turned livid, and he said angrily: "Even if it is a counterattack, we can't send 10 people...that's too much, 5 people is enough. "

"The enemy is in the dark, and I am in the light. Wouldn't 10 people be more safe?" Enwei sneered, "What's more, isn't the general worried that the enemy is cheating? One hundred thousand spirit ghosts can make it impossible for them to cheat. "

"but……"

Enwei took out a metal waist card from his pocket, raised his eyebrows and said, "What? The general still wants to disobey orders?"

Half an hour later, there was a faint commotion in front of the spirit ghost army.

Gu Sheng reckoned that it was time, so he blew his whistle and ordered the whole army to retreat.

Withdrew all the way west.

After a stick of incense, Dong Sheng stood on the city gate and saw a beam of bright fireworks popping up in the northwest sky, crackling and exploding in the air.

——That is the location of Calabash Valley.

There was an unconscious smile on the corner of his mouth, he lowered his head and took off the white crystal lens in front of him, rubbing the sore and swollen eyebrows.After more than two days of worrying, he finally felt something in his heart.

"Send the order, and the [-] troops at the city pass will return to the defense pass."

The soldier who sent the order got the order, and quickly answered yes, and ran to pass the news without touching the ground.

Shi Sheng rushed back before dawn, and at the same time brought back the first good news since the war began-Hua Xu's army wiped out [-] enemy troops in Calabash Valley, with less than [-] self-inflicted losses.

Under the city gate, it was still a night of fierce fighting, and they had already switched defenses for five rounds, and everyone was exhausted, and even the past life showed a look of exhaustion because of the night's running around.His body was covered with mud marks, mixed with the dried black blood stains, making him look a bit embarrassed.

Dong Sheng gave him a deep look, took out a piece of white silk from his bosom and handed it to him: "Thank you for your hard work, you should rest for a while."

"No need." Wangsheng said in a neutral manner, took Dong Sheng's white silk and wiped his face very bluntly, and wiped the snow-white silk to black and black in two or three strokes, "Now I don't know if they are still there. Whether or not there is a reserve army, it is still not an option to go on like this."

Dong Sheng looked at the faint blue aura constantly exploding below the city. The sound of shouting and killing had already numb his ears. He was silent for a while after listening to the past life, and then said in a low voice; "We must support the reinforcements in the western border arrive."

But if they carry it hard, the psychic cannon on the Chengguan can last at most two days, and the new batch of supplies will take ten days to arrive.

"There is no one in the city anymore," Xiangsheng looked at him, "Why don't you give it up? It's better to steal from the west than to wait here to die."

Dong Sheng said nonchalantly; "There are people from Sha'an in the northwest, and if the reinforcements from the western border are not available, our army should not rush westward."

"Then what do you think...how?"

The morning sun was reflected in Dong Sheng's dark eyes, as if some kind of strange flame was stirring. He looked at the battlefield below the city with constant gunpowder and smoke, his ears were filled with the sound of fighting that never stopped, and he pondered for a long time , finally let out a sigh, and said in a calm and unhurried manner: "The order will go on, and the whole army will retreat three hundred miles."
