Chapter 179: fight to the death
Chapter 179 A Fight to the Death
Looking around the world, apart from Bai Qijing, the cavalry general of the Bai family army, no one can train such powerful warriors!
On the east side of the valley, the one thousand soldiers brought by Bai Qingyan were full of blood and energy, fighting desperately with the Xiliang soldiers who were several times more numerous and their morale was broken.
“Bai Jinzhi! Bone Whistle passes the order… Order Cheng Yuanzhi to lead the Bai family army and our Jin army to quickly withdraw from the valley, defend the entrance of the Wudan River in Wengshan Gorge, and wait to intercept and kill the fleeing Xiliang army!”
“Yes!” Bai Jinzhi’s blood boiled and he dared not delay, so he blew the whistle immediately to pass the order.
The bone whistle messenger of the Bai family army in the valley heard the news and rushed to Cheng Yuanzhi, who was fighting with the Xiliang army with a big knife, and shouted: “General, the bone whistle has passed the order, ordering the general to lead the Bai family army and the Jin army to quickly withdraw from the valley, guard the entrance of the Wudan River in Wengshan Gorge, and wait to intercept and kill the fleeing Xiliang army!”
Cheng Yuanzhi had no doubts about the order from General Bai Qingyan, and raised his sword: “Retreat!”
“withdraw!”
“withdraw!”
The soldiers of the Bai family and Jin army in the valley received the order and turned around and rushed out of the valley, leaving the Xiliang soldiers who were fighting desperately with swords and spears confused.
“Not good!” Yun Poxing was the first to react. On the east side of the canyon were wood, stones, and kerosene that their Xiliang army had transported yesterday. That young white commander was going to use these to deal with their Xiliang army!
Yun Poxing looked around with horror on his face. He was now in the center of the Xiliang Army’s guard circle. Behind him was the exit of Wengshan and Jiuqu Peak. But not only was it narrow and secluded… most of the Xiliang troops were blocking his way behind him. Before he could charge forward, they would probably have been burned to death!
The further you go towards the entrance of Wudan River in Wengshan Gorge, the wider it becomes, and there is hope, but the Bai family army and 10,000 Jin troops are there!
Although there are wolves in front and tigers behind, there is no time for Yun Poxing to hesitate.
He shouted at the top of his lungs: “Retreat quickly! Retreat to the entrance of the Wudan River Canyon!”
There are too many Xiliang troops in the valley. How difficult is it for Yun Poxing to pass the order to the soldiers at the front and then start the withdrawal? !
Bai Qingyan looked at the Xiliang army below who had already begun to issue orders to retreat, and shouted, “Pass the order! Cut the wooden ropes and stone nets, add kerosene, and prepare the fire! Bai Jinzhi must follow Xiao Ruohai closely!”
After saying this, Bai Qingyan turned his horse around and galloped along the edge of the cliff in the canyon towards the Wudan River. He snatched the torch from a Jin soldier who had just prepared it and galloped away.
The sharp soldiers of the Tiger Eagle Camp who had already come down from the mountain received the order and cut the wooden ropes and stone nets and threw kerosene into the valley.
In the deep valley, there were screams and wails.
The Xiliang soldiers protecting Yun Poxing immediately raised their shields to protect Yun Poxing.
Yun Poxing smelled the kerosene and cursed anxiously: “Damn it! Quick! Kill them! Kill them!”
Yun Poxing, who had been protected by the iron wall of Xiliang before, could hardly move at this time. The Jin army had already used kerosene. If he delayed any further and the Jin army set fire, he would die in the sea of fire!
Yun Poxing’s eyes were red with anger. He drew the sword from his waist and roared, “Kill a bloody path for me! Quick!”
Yun Poxing’s personal guards knew that if they didn’t get out quickly, they would surely die here, so they drew out their swords and killed the Xiliang soldiers who had their backs facing them… and ran out with their shields held high.
Those soldiers who died at the hands of their own people in Xiliang all had their eyes wide open and their mouths open in disbelief before they died.
Zhang Duanrui, who was in the western valley, saw the soldiers in the eastern valley starting to pound kerosene and light the fire. His eyes lit up, his heart surged, and he shouted, “Prepare the fire!”
The sky was getting darker and darker. On the high cliff on the east side, a figure could be seen riding a horse against the wind, holding a torch in hand.
In the howling wind-swept canyon, the terrifying sounds of killing that had just been happening were replaced by the screams and cries of being attacked by huge rocks, huge trees, and kerosene falling from the sky. The Xiliang army was filled with fear and anxiety.
Bai Qingyan rode his horse at full speed, intending to rush to the entrance of the Wengshan Gorge on the Wudan River to join the Bai family army. Unexpectedly, he saw the large-scale barricades fixed by the Xiliang army on the East Gorge to block the army’s retreat.
The strong wind brought a strong smell of kerosene, and the chevaux de frise were actually soaked in kerosene!
She looked into the canyon and saw that the flags of the Bai family army and the Jin army had withdrawn from the position where the barricades were blocking the road. Without hesitation, she threw the torch in her hand at the barricades. In an instant, flames shot up into the sky, illuminating the sky above the Wengshan Canyon bright red.
She calmed down, drew out her arrows, and shot them one by one, breaking all the ropes that bound the barricades…
There were constant rumbling sounds, and the sturdy wooden barricades tied together tightly with iron chains suddenly rolled down from the high cliff on the east side. The sharpened wooden railings with fire at both ends, some of them drove straight into the ground to block the way of the Xiliang army, and some of them hit the Xiliang soldiers, killing them.
The Xiliang army was in a panic and had no choice but to fight near the exit of Wengshan and Jiuqufeng. They fought desperately with the Jin army led by Zhen Zeping and Shi Panshan in an attempt to fight their way out.
Zhen Zeping, who had just been fighting a bloody battle in the valley, retreated from the canyon and defended the narrow exit with Shi Panshan. It was extremely difficult for the Xiliang army to get out alive.
“Light the fire! Release the arrows!”
Countless flaming arrows rushed into the valley.
The fire from the arrow collided with the kerosene, and the flames spread rapidly like a giant python lying on the ground, and then rose from the ground in an instant, with such momentum that it seemed to rush straight into the sky!
The raging heat waves shot up into the sky, the flames burned fiercely and flickered like ghosts, devouring one Xiliang soldier after another. The killing was gentle and bloodless, cruel and swift!
Yun Poxing was protected by a shield in the center and was moving rapidly towards the valley entrance. From the corner of his eye, he could see flames of various heights outside the shield rushing towards him. The screams made Yun Poxing’s face even uglier. If he didn’t get out of the canyon where corpses were burning everywhere, and the fire couldn’t stop him, Yun Poxing would be burned to death here!
The shields were hot, and the soldiers covered them with their sleeves and rushed out quickly. Outside, there were screams and whistling arrows, which was terrifying.
Yun Poxing didn’t want to die here. His biggest dream in this life was to defeat Bai Weiting. Now he had finally killed all of Bai Weiting’s descendants, but he couldn’t let his grandmother die at the hands of Bai Weiting’s granddaughter, especially when Bai Weiting’s granddaughter defeated the larger force with a smaller one. If that happened, he would never be able to get rid of the reputation of being unable to defeat the Bai family army in this life.
General Wang Xiping of the Jin army, who had retreated to the exit of Wengshan Gorge, was holding his knees and gasping for breath, his face and body covered in mud and blood. He looked back at the Jin army and the Bai family army who were still rushing out, all of them were covered in blood and mud that was indistinguishable from their armor!
Suddenly, he saw a fire bursting into the sky in the valley, so he rushed to the side of General Cheng Yuanzhi of the Bai Family Army, clasped his fists and asked, “General Cheng, what will happen after we withdraw from the gorge?”
“We must guard the exit of Wengshan Gorge here and fight to the death with the fleeing Xiliang Army!” Cheng Yuanzhi clenched the sword in his hand, his eyes more scorching than the fire.
The title and introduction of this book, the bald author really tried his best… I can only ask the little ancestors to work hard to promote it! I continue to beg the little ancestors to give me monthly tickets! My monthly ticket is really pitiful!
