One person, one city, guarding the border for 30 years

Chapter 184
"General, there is no other way."

Another general also raised his head and looked towards Long Zhan, "Look outside, it's snowing so heavily and it's so cold, if we don't leave, the soldiers will freeze to death."

"Yes, General, if the snow continues to fall, the heavy snow may block the road, and even if we want to go, we will not be able to go."

"Make a decision early, General."

"Even the two Chaofans are dead, what can we use against Lu Qingfan?"

"If Lu Qingfan wants to kill us wholeheartedly, who among us can hide?"

Several generals in a row are trying to persuade Long Zhan.

After seeing Lu Qingfan's strength, they no longer have the confidence to win the big week.

It would be nice to come back to the Empire alive.

As for the punishment they will receive after returning, they don't even care about it.

Let's survive first.

Long Zhan is also considering this issue.

To be alive is more important than anything else!

"go!"

Long Zhan didn't think about it for too long, "Order the whole army to leave immediately, withdraw from Qinzhou City, and return to the empire. We will not fight this battle!"

"Yes!"

Everyone suddenly agreed.

……

……

The horn sounded.

That was the sound of assembly.

Lu Qingfan and Ah Li were still standing at the foot of the city.

"What is this for?"

A Li guessed, "Would they want to run away?"

"Think beautifully!"

Lu Qingfan sneered and said, "Since they're here, don't even think about leaving."

"What? Where are we going now?"

The vengeance was avenged, and Ah Li suddenly didn't know what to do.

"Go, go up."

Lu Qingfan grabbed A Li and jumped onto Jade Bird's back.

The blue bird hovered over Qinzhou City, observing the movements of the demon army.

The soldiers of the Demon Race could only watch, not daring to attack the blue bird.

Those who had done it before were all dead.

This deterrence is more powerful than any words.

As the horn sounded continuously, the armies of the Demon Race were assembled and began to leave the city.

Hundreds of cavalry ran at the forefront, responsible for scouting and reconnaissance.

The demon soldiers were wearing black military uniforms and black armor, rushing out of the city like a black tide.

The long line stretched out from the city gate, endlessly.

An army of [-] demons came out in full force.

The sound of orderly footsteps shook the people in Qinzhou City into panic.

"what happened?"

"What happened?"

"Where is the demon army going?"

"Are you going to attack other cities?"

The people in Qinzhou City all put on cotton-padded clothes and lived through the winter ahead of schedule.

People heard the commotion in the city, and they left their houses one after another to secretly observe the whereabouts of the demon army.

"Look, what is that?"

Someone saw the blue bird in the sky and exclaimed.

"It's the blue bird!"

The people of Qinzhou City naturally recognize the blue bird, and know what the arrival of the blue bird means.

"Lu Qingfan is here!"

"Great!"

"We are saved!"

There were bursts of cheers in Qinzhou city.

"It turns out Da Zhou hasn't forgotten about us!"

"Mr. Lu didn't forget us!"

"We are not abandoned!"

Some people were even moved to tears.

Some people guessed something and shouted loudly: "I know, the demons are going to run!"

"Correct!"

"It must be Lu Qingfan's arrival that scared away the demons."

"Lu Qingfan is too powerful!"

"Surprisingly, with the strength of one person, one hundred thousand troops of the demon clan were scared off!"

"too strong!"

People looked up at the blue bird in the sky, their eyes searched for Lu Qingfan's figure, their eyes were full of respect.

This is the real powerhouse!
Great hero revered by all!

The patron saint of the Great Zhou Dynasty!

"Lu Qingfan!"

I don't know who took the lead in shouting, and people started calling Lu Qingfan's name in unison.

Afterwards, the entire Qinzhou city echoed the name.

The soldiers of the Demon Race became more and more restless when they heard the uniform shouts.

They suddenly had deep doubts in their hearts, could they really safely withdraw to the empire?

You know, they are invaders!

They invaded the Great Zhou, broke through the cities of the Great Zhou, killed countless soldiers of the Great Zhou, and even killed King Qin.

Can Da Zhou really let them go?

At this moment, thunder suddenly sounded in the distance.

"Boom!"

The thunder was getting closer and louder.

The faces of all the demon soldiers changed, they could hear it, where is this thunder?
This is clearly the sound of galloping horses!
It's Da Zhou's army!

"not good!"

The generals of the Demon Race were even more flustered at this time.

"All teams stop and prepare to fight!"

Without thinking too much about it, Long Zhan issued an order quickly.

"Yes!"

The instructions were passed down layer by layer, and the soldiers of the Demon Race stopped advancing, but they had no time to line up when they saw the arrows all over the sky, falling together with the overwhelming snowflakes.

The black sharp arrows mixed with the white snowflakes made it difficult for the demon soldiers to distinguish and dodge.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

Arrows rained down.

The Mozu soldiers fell instantly.

Their armor cannot stop the invasion of sharp arrows at all.

Even their strong physical bodies have lost their effect.

What kind of arrow is this?

Who is it that came?

Da Zhou's soldiers are so powerful?

Seeing the soldiers under him fall down in pieces, Long Zhan and the generals of the Mozu suddenly had a bad premonition in their hearts.

The opponent's combat strength exceeded their imagination.

And Lu Qingfan was still watching the sky.

Does this mean you don't want them to withdraw?
"Whoosh whoosh!"

The arrows all over the sky seemed endless and continuous.

The soldiers in the demon formation fell one after another, but Da Zhou's army never showed up.

Even the thunderous sound of hooves stopped.

Finally, the soldiers of the Mozu lined up and took out their shields, ready to withstand the arrows that filled the sky.

However, the rain of arrows stopped suddenly.

The soldiers of the Demon Race were dumbfounded.

Long Zhan was also dumbfounded.

They didn't even see each other's figure, and they had already lost countless soldiers.

How should we fight this battle?
to chase?

The opponent is a cavalry, and it is impossible to catch up.

run?
Will the other party come after him?

Back to the city?

Once you enter the city, it will be difficult to get out.

"Pass down the order and stand by!"

After much deliberation, Long Zhan could only make such a decision.

The demon soldiers began to repair on the spot, but they didn't dare to relax for a moment. They didn't dare to mess up the formation at all, and they didn't dare to put down the shields in their hands.

However, Da Zhou's army did not move. Not only did they not attack, they did not even shoot their arrows.

They seem to have installed an eye in the sky, and they can easily see every move of the demon army.

"Eye?"

Thinking of this, Long Zhan raised his head and looked at the sky, only to see that the blue bird was still there, so Lu Qingfan was naturally still there.

"It's him?"

Long Zhan finally found out that it was Lu Qingfan's fault.

But he has nothing to do.

Don't dare to provoke.

If Lu Qingfan was angered, the consequences would definitely be more serious.

How to do?
Long Zhan thought about it, but couldn't think of a good idea, but he couldn't stay here forever.

"Pass down the order and move on!"

"Yes!"

The demon army set off again.

Along the way, the soldiers of the Demon Race were cautious and fully alert, for fear of a sudden attack by Da Zhou's army.

However, Da Zhou's army did not catch up.

It was very quiet in the distance, there was no sound of horseshoes, and no arrows were shot.

Ten miles outside the city, there is a mountainous land, dozens of mountains are connected into one, and everywhere is green.

A road passes through the mountain.

This road is wide and flat enough, but it has to pass through high mountains.

There are even sections between two mountains.

When the demon army came here, the snow had stopped.

Having been frightened earlier, Long Zhan didn't dare to be careless, and sent hundreds of spies to scout the way.

Especially in the valley not far away, where the terrain is steep, the mountains are high and the grass is deep, it is easy to hide people.

If an ambush is lurking on the mountain, and when the demon army enters the valley, it will give a fatal blow, and the demon army will be defeated.

Long Zhan knew the pros and cons of this and had to be careful.

But here is the only way to go back to the empire, there is no other way to go around, except walking from the mountain.

But the mountain road is difficult to walk, and there are still a large number of cavalry in the demon army, so there is no way to cross the mountain.

"Send the order to rest on the spot."

"Yes."

The demon army stopped in front of the valley, and the spies entered the valley and started searching from the bottom up.

After a long time, the first spy came back, "General Qi, there is nothing unusual in the valley."

"General, there are no enemies on the mountain."

"There's no one in the grass."

As the spies came back one by one and gave a safe signal, Long Zhan felt a little relieved.

But at the same time, he's kind of weird.

Such a suitable place for setting up an ambush, why is there no ambush?
Am I guessing wrong?
Did the Great Zhou army just scare them?Didn't really want to keep them?

Before Long Zhan had time to think about it, he ordered quickly and decisively.

"Send the order and move on."

"Yes."

The demon army marched again, and the vanguard entered the valley.

These two mountains are very large, and the valley is extremely long.

However, there were also many demons. When the vanguard was about to walk out of the valley, the rear troops hadn't entered the valley yet.

Long Zhan rode in the middle of the team, frowning deeply.

He always felt that something was wrong, and he was very uneasy, but he had to do it again.

It was as if a rope was tying him, pulling him forward.

its not right!
After much deliberation, Long Zhan suddenly thought of a very serious problem.

The reason why the demon army came here was not decided by him, but was forced by Lu Qingfan and the Great Zhou army step by step.

He had to.

Will there be a huge trap waiting for him ahead?
Long Zhan felt even more uneasy.

At this moment, thunder suddenly sounded from behind.

"Boom!"

The sound was getting closer and louder, as if the earth was trembling.

"It's the Great Zhou Army!"

Long Zhan's face changed, and he shouted: "Send the order, speed up!"

"Yes!"

The vanguard of the demons quickly left the valley and continued to move forward.

A flat plain ahead, very open.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

The rain of arrows all over the sky suddenly fell, and the vanguard of the Demon Race was caught off guard and fell a large area.

"Get out!"

When the general gave an order, the soldiers turned around and ran away.

They have long been unwilling to fight, and they don't want to lose their lives in vain.

The vanguard of the demons turned around and retreated back to the valley regardless.

The soldiers in the valley were walking forward, and the two groups of people collided and became a mess.

"what happened?"

"Why did they all withdraw?"

Someone yelled in the chaos, wondering what happened?
"There is an ambush ahead!"

"It's the Great Zhou Army!"

Someone responded loudly.

"what?"

"There was an ambush?"

"Is it the Great Zhou Army?"

Many soldiers of the Demon Race crowded in the first half of the valley, panicked and confused.

Especially after hearing the previous news, more people started to turn around, wanting to retreat.

But the people behind wanted to move forward.

Everyone squeezed desperately, the more you squeeze, the more you can't move.

At this time, the troops behind the demon clan also poured into the valley.

More people crowded together, and the team couldn't move anymore.

"General Long Zhan has an order, speed up!"

The messenger finally squeezed to the front and sent orders to several generals.

The generals looked at the chaotic situation in front of them and wanted to shout to stop the soldiers, but no one listened.

The morale of the army is chaotic.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

Arrows rained all over the sky, shooting into the valley from the front and rear directions.

Countless demon soldiers fell down screaming.

Those who survived were so frightened that they didn't care, and squeezed desperately into the middle of the valley.

They don't care too much.

Dodge those arrows first.

At least in the middle of the valley, no arrow can hit it.

At this time, Long Zhan was squeezed in the middle and was about to go crazy.

He was so angry that he cursed, but no one listened to him.

The soldiers are running around.

"Stop for me!"

Long Zhan kicked several soldiers away, but it had no effect. Not long after, another soldier crowded beside him.

He was so angry that he took out his knife and was about to swing it down.

At this moment, there was a sudden movement on the mountains on both sides.

"Ok?"

Long Zhan became alert and looked towards the top of the mountain to one side, only to see that there seemed to be a figure shaking on the mountain.

Oops!

Long Zhan knew that his premonition had been tested, and the Great Zhou Army really set up an ambush here.

But why didn't the spies find it just now?

Have they been hiding under the mountain?Did you just take advantage of the chaos and go up the mountain?
Long Zhan couldn't figure it out, and he didn't have time to think about it.

"Get out of the way!"

Long Zhan rode his horse and wanted to charge forward, he wanted to leave here.

But the road ahead was so blocked that he couldn't move at all.

In desperation, Long Zhan had no choice but to dismount and walk forward.

He can't take care of others now, so let's save his own life first.

At this moment, there was a loud noise from the mountains on both sides.

"Boom!"

Countless stones and rolling logs rolled down from the top of the mountain.

Hearing the sound, the soldiers of the Demon Race followed the sound and saw those rolling logs and stones rolling down towards them, and they were frightened out of their wits.

"Mom!"

"Run!"

"Escape is important!"

Everyone, including the general, panicked and ran around like headless chickens.

The more this happens, the more chaotic it becomes.

Some run forward, some run backward, and some run up the hill.

Some even fell to the ground directly.

"Boom!"

Stones and logs fell quickly, and some people couldn't dodge and were instantly run over.

In just a short time, thousands of demon soldiers died tragically on the spot, and countless were injured.

The logs and stones were still falling, and there was a lot of dry grass mixed with them.

The soldiers of the Demon Race were only concerned about running for their lives at this moment, and had no time to think about the use of these hay.
