Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 67 Death Battle
The sound of fighting woke up the deep night, and on the distant land, wild wolves also howled one after another.

The scouts sent back the front battle reports one by one, "General, the Death Battalion encountered the enemy at the foot of the mountain. The enemy army is very fierce, and our army suffered heavy losses."

The Death Battalion was originally called cannon fodder temporarily to test the enemy's ambush, and they were not expected to break the enemy.

The fighting continued.

The defeated soldiers in the front line all fled around Li Yue. These people have become a habit of fleeing in case of a big battle, which shakes the morale of the army.

The old soldiers of Heiyun Mountain are brave and fierce, but the newly recruited soldiers may not be like this. Military law should be established in the future, otherwise when encountering a real opponent, a small defeat will lead to the collapse of the whole line.

"All deserters will be beheaded, and their heads will be sent to the front line!" Li Yue ordered with a blank expression.

"Follow the order!" The scouts chased after them on donkeys and mules.

There were begging for mercy and screams one after another.

Zhang Shengye came to report with blood on his face, "General, there are as many as a thousand deserters..."

"Not one." Li Yue's tone didn't fluctuate.

If deserters on the battlefield are not dealt with, how can others be willing to fight to the death?
"Follow the order!" Zhang Shengye gritted his teeth and left, "The general has an order, no one will be left behind!"

The sound of the blade cutting the neck sounded around, and Li Yue felt a little crisp...

"Report, General Wei requests to fight!"

"No!" Li Yue directly refused, and the sound of fighting in the front line did not stop, indicating that Xu Cheng was still fighting bloody battles.

No matter how many troops are invested on the rugged mountain road, it will be in vain.

Li Yue has always placed high hopes on Xu Cheng, and now is the time for him to show himself.

Everyone in this world has their own checkpoints to pass, similarly, Xuanyuan Mountain is also a checkpoint of Heiyun Mountain.

The sound of fighting became more and more fierce, there were still rout soldiers who fled back from the front, were caught by scouts, their heads were beheaded, and sent to the front.

The bloody smell around is getting stronger and stronger, attracting all kinds of beasts to spy on them. Pairs of green eyes flicker in the darkness, and the cold night makes them even hungrier.

About half an hour later, the scouts finally brought good news, "General, Chief Xu led the veterans of the Death Battalion to defeat the enemy!"

"Okay! Order the Death Battalion to rest, and Wei Shan to attack!"

"Follow the order!"

In the past few months, there has been almost no moon in Heiyun Mountain without fighting, fighting bandits and refugees, fighting wild beasts, and fighting the harsh living environment.

The rugged mountain road may be a natural barrier to others, but it is nothing to the tribe of Heiyun Mountain. They go back and forth on the mountain road several times a day.

Dawn tore a white slit on the eastern horizon, and the cold night gradually receded.

However, the fight ahead continued, and the people in Xuanyuan Mountain resisted desperately.

The scouts came rushing from the east, "A thousand-step cavalry from Mi County is coming here, temporarily held back by Zhou Changshi!"

Zhou's hands are all young and strong, without armor, and the weapons are all tattered. The last time we faced off against Weishui, the troops in Mi County were quite elite, so we can restrain them for a short time, but after a long time, we will definitely be discovered.

However, the battle in Xuanyuan Mountain seemed to be in a stalemate again, and the fighting became more and more fierce.

Li Yue led the scout battalion forward, and there were corpses everywhere along the way. The corpses of deserters who had lost their heads were being eaten by wild wolves and wild dogs. The blood pooled into streams, making the mountain road muddy.

As soon as they arrived at the foot of the mountain, the scouts came to report in panic, "...General Wei took the lead and led his soldiers to fight to the death, but was injured by the enemy general."

"Where's General Wei?" Li Yue was shocked. After Meng Kai left, Wei Shan was one of the most powerful in Heiyun Mountain. How could he be defeated?

However, this was not the first time. Wei Shan also took the lead in the battle between Heiyun Mountain and Nanshan. He rushed to the front and was injured by Gao Li's guards.

"Rescued by the soldiers."

Li Yue remembered that Cui Jin said that Xuanyuan Mountain's combat power should not be underestimated, and now it seems that it is not false.

With Wei Shan's injury, the sound of fighting on the mountain gradually faded away.

Standing on a big tree on the mountainside, one person yelled downwards: "The bandits of Heiyun Mountain, today is the time for you to die! Hahaha——"

There was a burst of laughter on the mountain.

Listening to these messy laughter, Li Yue felt a little funny, Heiyun Mountain is a thief, what is Xuanyuan Mountain?Jiezhao's obedient people?
They were also treated as inappropriate people in the north, but not in the south.

Xu Cheng's eyes were about to burst, "This subordinate is willing to lead the Death Battalion to go. If we don't break this thief, we will never return it."

The troops in Mi County have already been dispatched. If Xu Cheng is unsuccessful, he will be in danger of being attacked from both front and back.

Glancing at the exhausted Death Battalion and Xu Cheng whose wounds were still bleeding, Li Yue shook his head, "I'll go meet Xuanyuan Mountain in person!"

The retreating soldiers bowed their heads and their morale was low.

This is a dangerous sign.

Although Wei Shan is a brave general, it is a pity that he has not really transformed from a bandit leader to a general. He invested too much troops on the narrow mountain road and was unable to deploy. He was blocked by the enemy's fierce generals and got stuck on the mountain road. loss of evidence.

Xu Cheng has passed the checkpoint, and now it's his turn.

This battle is related to the future living space of Heiyun Mountain. As the master of the mountain, he naturally cannot stay out of it.

"Willing to fight with the general to the death!" More than 130 guard soldiers stood up.

"As expected of my son from Heiyun Mountain." Li Yue laughed.

His calm laughter reassured everyone around him.

"Kill the thief!" Li Yue raised the ring sword in his right hand and a hammer in his left hand. The heavy feeling from the hammer made people feel very at ease.

Winner and loser, whoever loses will be a thief!
The cold wind is still howling, the morning light passes through the dead branches, and the fresh earthy smell is mixed with a strong smell of blood.

And this bloody smell made people tense up instantly.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" More than 130 soldiers marched forward with heavy soldiers such as bones, maces, and hammers.

Those who can use these weapons are naturally tall and mighty, plus the evil spirit endowed to them by this bloody era, once they appear on the battlefield, they are like scourges.

Pounce, pounce, puff...

The ground shook with the vibration of the armor.

Thousands of people down the mountain looked up and looked forward to it.

bang...

Stones and logs rolled down the mountain path.

Xuanyuan Mountain is steeper than Heiyun Mountain, but the steep mountain road also limits the deployment of the enemy's forces.

Therefore, there are not many stones and logs, and they still roll down.

Those who reacted quickly dodged easily, and those who couldn't dodge directly carried it with their bodies.

"Kill the thief!!" A soldier spat out blood after being hit, but still stood upright, pointing upwards with his bone.

"Kill!" The others quickened their pace and rushed up the mountain.

The opponent has been fighting for most of the night, so he will naturally be exhausted. The stones and wood are getting sparser, and the closer the distance, the less effective these things will be.

Someone shot two arrows, but facing the heavy armor, they couldn't do any damage at all.

"Death!" A soldier jumped up and smashed down his mace in his hand, causing the wind to howl.

The opponent has been able to resist Wei Shan for so long, so he naturally wears iron armor and an iron helmet.

But the iron helmet was pinched like mud under the mace, with a "bang", the iron helmet was deeply dented, and red and white things popped out...

Sometimes, death is not scary. Who doesn't have a narrow escape these days?
But such a tragic death made the people around him terrified.

The soldier held the mace upside down, stared at the stunned crowd with bloodshot eyes, splashed red and white on his face, and a white gas spewed out from his mouth and nose, "Die!"
