The boulder rolled down the hillside from the top of the mountain, which was extremely miserable for the Sichuan army who were climbing up the mountain. The boulders rolled over the soldiers of the Sichuan army, whistling past, leaving shocking bloodstains on the hillside. Countless Sichuan soldiers could not even find their completed corpses and turned into stalls of meat and mud.
The 80000 Sichuan army under the command of Yang Zhao launched a strong attack on the left peak of hukoujian. However, after more than one hour, none of the Sichuan army could attack the top of the mountain. Looking at it, the whole hillside was covered with corpses of Sichuan Army soldiers. The blood flowed into a river, and the ridge was about to be dyed red.
Xiao Xuan, who watched the battle, also realized that Yang Zhao's attack was not good. He was busy and deployed his troops to attack the right front of hukoujian. In his opinion, since the left peak of hukoujian resisted so fiercely, the main personnel of Shenchi must be here. The mountain on the right is empty, which is a good opportunity for us to enter.
But in fact, it was not so back at all. When the Sichuan army attacked the right peak of hukoujian, it was still fiercely countered by the Shenchi people who occupied the peak. The soldiers rushed up and down one wave, even faster and more serious than the left peak.
This made Xiao Xuan have no idea, only a few thousand Shenchi personnel, but let hundreds of thousands of his own army helpless. How can it be so difficult to fight? Is it possible that all Shenchi people are gods?
Just as he was thinking hard about his strategy to defeat the enemy, the left wing of the Sichuan army camp suddenly went into chaos. Xiao Xuan did not know what had happened. He frowned and looked at the left wing side for a moment. He said to a bodyguard, "go and see what happened on the left side?"
"Yes The guard answered and urged the horse to run out.
After a short time, the guards returned, and at the same time, they also brought back a Sichuan soldier with a slanting helmet. When the soldier arrived near Xiao Xuan, he quickly turned over and dismounted, kneeling and intervening: "report to the king, the matter is not good, the left wing of our army has been attacked by the enemy!"
"What?" Xiao Xuan's eyes are wide, enemy? Where did the enemy come from? Are not the enemies all on the mountain of hukoujian? Why did they suddenly run to their left wing? He gazed at the soldier for a moment and asked in a deep voice, "how many enemy troops are there?"
"There are hundreds and thousands of people!" Xiao Xuan smell speech nose almost gas crooked, sternly shout: "in the end is hundreds or thousands?"
"Villains, villains don't know"
"get down!" Xiao Xuan drank back the soldiers who had reported the news, then looked at the generals on the left and right and asked, "tell me, generals, where did the enemy who attacked the left wing of our army come from?"
"King, since the general of the left army sent someone to report to the king, the enemy who attacked secretly must be very difficult to deal with. The king should send troops to help him as soon as possible!" The general Lu You said.
Xiao Xuan nodded and said to LV you, "Lv you, you should select 20000 cavalry from the Chinese army and rush to the left wing to reinforce. Once you encounter an incoming enemy, you must kill all of them and leave none of them behind!"
"I will obey you." LV you took orders and left. He led his troops to the left wing fast enough, but it was still a step too late. In this moment, the left Army General Xu Zheng was killed by the people who attacked them secretly.
In fact, the number of people who attacked the holy pool was not large, only two or three hundred people, all holding spiritual knives.
They are all disciples of the Shenchi sword vein generation, and their status is very common in Shenchi. However, their spirit and martial arts are not weak, and their accomplishments are basically in the Lingyuan realm. Only two or three hundred people dare to attack the camp of hundreds of thousands of Sichuan troops. They are really successful in their sneak attack and kill the left-wing generals of the Sichuan army among the numerous Sichuan troops It was in the chaos that he took the head of the enemy general.
After learning about the situation of the left-wing army, LV you was furious and led 20000 cavalry to kill him. He met with the sneak attack of Shenchi personnel, the two sides then launched a fierce battle.
These two or three hundred Shenchi's children are very powerful, but they can't compete with tens of thousands of cavalry. Moreover, more and more Sichuan troops gathered around, for fear of being trapped in a tight encirclement, the leader called out: "withdraw!"
At his command, the sneak attack of Shenchi personnel immediately after the team into the front team, began to break out. It was very easy for them to rush in. It was a surprise to the Sichuan army. Now it is not so simple to withdraw. The dense Sichuan army surrounded them on three floors inside and three outside. Even though these Shenchi people fought hard to escape from the Sichuan army camp, most of them died in the chaos.
LV you led the crowd to clear the Shenchi personnel who attacked secretly. However, the Sichuan army paid the price of the left Army General Xu Zheng's death. The news came back to Xiao Xuan. The latter couldn't help but lift his hand and gently tap his painful forehead.
Although LV you successfully withstood the attack of Shenchi, Xiao Xuan was not happy at all. First, General Xu Zheng was injured. Second, he didn't know how many ambushes were waiting for his own soldiers in Shenchi. If not, there would be the second wave, the third wave and even more Shenchi dead men. They were ready for another fatal attack at any time.
Hukoujian can't attack any more. Otherwise, our losses will only increase. Thinking of this, Xiao Xuan issued an order to stop the attack and withdraw all the troops.The offensive and defensive battle between Sichuan army and Shenchi personnel in hukoujian finally came to an end with the active retreat of Sichuan army. Later, the Sichuan army set up camp in the open area five miles away from hukoujian.
After a day of fierce fighting, Xiao Xuan realized that hukoujian was not as easy to fight as he thought. He ordered the whole army to fight without his permission.
If the Sichuan army does not go out, the Shenchi side will not take the initiative to go down the mountain to engage in a frontal confrontation with the Sichuan army. On the one hand, the two sides are preparing for the battle on the mountain, while the other side is stationed at the foot of the mountain. The war situation is in a stalemate.
When Tang Yin and Xia Yao arrived at hukoujian from Qiankun mountain, this was the situation.
If you want to enter the hinterland of Shenchi from the south, you have to go through Hukou stream. Similarly, if you want to go from the hinterland of Shenchi to the south, you have to go through Hukou stream.
Now, Tang Yin has no idea what happened in hukoujian. He doesn't know that in the two days after he left Fengying camp, the two armies of FengChuan have both invaded Shenchi.
This morning, Tang Yin and Xia Yao arrived at Hukou stream. He looked up at the Hukou stream in the distance and said to himself, "what a dangerous place! If anyone occupies the peaks on both sides of the canyon, it will be extremely difficult for the enemy to pass through again. "
Xia Yao shakes her head and laughs helplessly. It seems that Tang Yin thinks about war anytime and anywhere. They walked quickly to hukoujian. The closer they got to the valley, the tighter Tang Yin's eyebrows tightened. At the same time, they subconsciously raised their hands and clasped Xia Yao's arm.
She did not understand to look at him, doubt way: "Your Highness?"
In the past two days, she has more or less understood Tang Yin. Tang Yin is not a gentleman, but he is not a dirty ruffian who is greedy for women. If it is not forced by the situation, he will not be close to her and have close physical contact with her.
"There seems to be something wrong here!" Tang Yin didn't look at her. His eyes were sweeping up and down, inside and outside hukoujian.
Hearing his words, Xia Yao immediately became nervous. She quickly closed her eyes and looked forward. Hukou stream was quiet, silent, and empty. She couldn't even see her own shadow. She didn't feel anything wrong.
"What's wrong with your highness?" she asked suspiciously
"It smells of blood! There seems to have been a war here. " There was no corpse or any bloodstain, but there was a smell of blood floating over, which showed that the battlefield was far away from here. In addition, it also showed that the scale of the battlefield was very large and many people were killed and injured.
But Tang Yin didn't understand who would fight in hukoujian? The two armies of FengChuan and FengChuan are stationed at the border of Shenchi, so they won't come here. Is it a fight between the people of Shenchi? This is unreasonable. He was puzzled.
As he got closer and closer to hukoujian, Tang Yin's heart beat increased unconsciously, blood flow accelerated, and every nerve and cell in his body were tightening, which was a natural reaction to detect the killing Qi.
"There is an ambush here." Tang Yin grasped Xia Yao's wrist, slowed down his pace, and said in a low voice.
"Is it elder Nie who laid an ambush here?" Xia Yao was shocked.
Tang Yin shook his head, youyou said: "it seems not for us." To feel the existence of murderous spirit, he depends on his intuition. He feels that the murderous spirit is not aimed at himself, it also depends on his intuition.
If there is an ambush in hukoujian, the ambush must have seen him and Xia Yao now. If he and Xia Yao no longer go forward, they will arouse suspicion of each other. Even if they are not aiming at themselves, they may have to come to visit them.
Of course, if he and Xia Yao continue to move forward, there is also the danger of falling into each other's encirclement. Tang Yin's mind turned quickly, and he and Xia Yao had already reached the entrance of Hukou stream.
Xia Yao has no idea. She can only look at Tang Yin and wait for his decision. The latter hesitated for a moment and whispered to Xia Yao, "go."
He pulled Xia Yao forward and said in a low voice: "I want to come. There are not many people who have seen you in the holy pool."
She nodded and whispered, "not much! Only the king and the elder have seen it
"That's good." Tang Yin nodded, and his mood was a little calmer.
When they were about to walk to the middle of Hukou stream, they suddenly heard the voice of "stop!" coming from above With the voice, the mountain walls on both sides of Hukou stream Shua Shua Shua Shua continuously jumped down several people.
These people, dressed in grey robes and grey cloaks on their backs, have been attached to the wall of the mountain, and are almost integrated with the wall. Even when they are close, it is difficult to detect their existence.
"Who is it?" Several people in gray stood in the way of Tang Yin and Xia Yao. Their eyes were like electricity, sweeping their faces.
