The world worships me as the White Snake Immortal

Chapter 20
Zhao Chu was considered invincible among mortals. He wielded a big halberd and wielded it with great force, making it impossible for any ferocious beast to get close to him.

The thick armor on his body also protected him from the bites of most snakes and rats.

But no matter how powerful he is, he is just a mortal.

Just when he was fighting to the point of pleasure, Zhou Bai suddenly raised his head, a breath of fresh air spurted out, and he rushed towards Zhao Chu.

Zhao Chu was unprepared and was immediately thrown away, leaving only a skeleton in mid-air.

Compared with the fate of the goddess Zhao Chu, who was destroyed both physically and mentally, the fate was pretty good.

And the reason lies in his armor.

The standard armor of the Sui Dynasty army was made up of several thin layers of armor connected in series, and it would not necessarily be damaged by a knife, an axe, or a chisel.

But Zhou Bai's methods are not comparable to ordinary weapons.

Whoa!

Zhao Chu's skeleton fell heavily to the ground. The skeleton connected by muscles and bones instantly fell apart and scattered everywhere!

And this scene naturally fell into the eyes of many soldiers.

It is taboo to kill a general on the battlefield.

But the army under Zhao Chu was very strange.

After Zhao Chu's death, the adjutant immediately took his place.

Then the messengers in the army began to issue the adjutant's orders to the three armies with flags.

The main camp, that is, the cavalry at the rear suffered the heaviest losses this time, because they were not equipped with anything like shields, and their armor was relatively weak. They had to be distracted by taking care of their horses when fighting fierce beasts.

But now that they got the signal from the messenger, they immediately got on their horses. They didn't even have time to clean up the snakes and insects lying on their bodies before they clamped their horses' bellies and retreated quickly out of the mountain.

Not long after, they cleared the mountain road behind!

After they vacated their positions, the archers also mounted their horses and evacuated.

It is worth mentioning that the archers were closest to the food and baggage, and each of them took some of the food and grass with them when they retreated.

As for the more heavy baggage, all the luggage was left on the mountain road.

The infantry were the last group to start retreating, but they suffered the least losses among the three armies.

Some of them were responsible for holding shields to resist the attacks of ferocious beasts, some were holding spears and other long weapons to assassinate ferocious beasts through the gaps between the shields, and some were responsible for spreading insect repellent. Everything seemed in order, which also reflected Zhao Chu's ability to manage the army.

Looking at the troops retreating in an orderly manner, Zhou Bai did not pursue them fiercely. Instead, some of the beasts under his men were furious and insisted on rushing forward to kill them, and Zhou Bai could not control them.

The purpose of his trip was very simple, which was to prevent Zhao Chu's army from passing through the mountains and reaching Nanshan Village.

Now that his goal has been achieved, he dismissed these beasts and returned to the mountains.

If those people still dared to enter the mountain, he wouldn't mind charging and killing them again.

Anyway, this road including this mountain belongs to him, and no one can pass as long as he doesn't allow it.

After Zhou Bai left, the beasts on the surrounding mountains naturally dispersed.

An hour later, several young men armed with swords and guns quietly climbed up to the top of the mountain and looked down here.

Their forward scouts from Nanshan Village were responsible for guarding here and waiting for Zhao Chu's army to pass by.

However, before Zhao Chu could wait, the beasts in the mountains rioted.As for the fight on the mountain road, they naturally heard about it, but no one dared to step forward to check. They could only wait until the mountain was completely quiet before they dared to take a peek.

They were stunned when they saw the bloodstains on the narrow mountain road and the bodies lying on the ground.

They are just common people in the mountains. Although they came to intercept the invading army with the intention of dying this time, they still couldn't help but feel sick when they saw the scene of blood flowing everywhere and heads rolling on the ground. vomit.

One of the leaders among these people was named Zhang San, who was famously brave in the village, but now he couldn't help but swallow his saliva and force down the food that had surged into his throat.

Then he looked at the people behind him with a pale face, picked the youngest one and said, "You, go back to the village and report it, and ask them to come quickly. The rest of them will continue to stare here. I'll go down and take a look!"

"Ah, Third Brother, are you kidding me? Shouldn't we wait until the people from the village arrive?"

"I, Zhang San, have no intention of going back alive this time. I am not even afraid of death, but I am afraid of a few dead people. If you are afraid, just stay here and wait for me to come back!"

With that said, Zhang San walked out from the bushes, stepping on the weeds and walking towards the mountain road step by step.

Seeing how bold he was, the few young men who were still standing there gritted their teeth and followed him down the mountain.

After all, we are all young people. We are in our prime of life. How can we watch Zhang San stand out alone.

If when the people in the village come and find out that only Zhang San has such courage, they will inevitably be laughed at!

Several people walked together on the mountain road and walked forward cautiously, stepping on the areas that were not stained by blood.

Zhang San threw away the hatchet in his hand, picked up a steel knife that could only be used in the army, waved it twice, and said proudly: "This is like a weapon that a general should use!"

After saying that, he inserted the knife diagonally into his waistband and picked up another horsetail.

Carrying a sword and holding a spear really makes him look like a soldier.

The few people following him also picked up the weapons on the ground. With the weapons in hand, they felt more confident.

Several people armed with spears and horse spears surrounded a vehicle frame parked on the road. Zhang San took the lead in using the horse spear to pick down several corpses lying on the frame, and then lifted up the hemp rope covering the frame. The top blood-stained raincloth was lifted up, revealing sacks one after another underneath!

Zhang San’s nose shrugged, and he suddenly said excitedly: “It’s rice!”

They are all farmers and are very familiar with the taste of food.

Afterwards, they went through the sacks one by one and found that in addition to rice, there were beans, sorghum and some dried meat slices!

These are all good things!
There are also some weapons such as swords, guns, shields, bows and arrows on the frames further back.

This time it can be described as a bumper harvest.

The fear in the hearts of Zhang San and others was completely dissipated. They all carried knives, guns and long bows and quivers on their backs. Let alone facing these corpses, even if Zhao Chu's army left and returned at this time, they dared to fight with each other.

This should be the so-called fear that all comes from insufficient strength.

As long as you have strength, you will have confidence in your heart.

Huang Wen, who quickly got the news, led hundreds of young people from the village to the place.

Everyone was shocked when they saw the corpses on the ground and the funny looks of Zhang San and others.

Even Huang Wen's face was a little excited.

Before he could ask, Zhang San and others told him what was on the frames.

Huang Wen said a few good words and quickly ordered everyone to take these frames back, while he rode a sweaty BMW and ran to Yanzhou Mansion as fast as possible!
