From a small soldier in the frontier army, an immortal god of war was born

Chapter 148: Break out of the encirclement ten times stronger than before, enter the mountain like a dragon and dive into the sea!

"The Yan family's blood-blasting technique!"

Li Xian instantly recognized that this was the Yan family's inherited martial art, the Blood Burst Technique, and his expression immediately became even uglier.

Originally, Wu Fengdeng's super combat power was enough to match him and Zhao Xunle, and now that he has entered a blood-blasting state, they are no match for him.

While thinking about it, Wu Fengdeng had already pounced towards Zhao Xunle. The black and red sun-covering sword was even sharper at this time, and it fell like a meteor, leaving behind a trail of red blood.

Zhao Xunle screamed suddenly and hurriedly swung the spine knife in her hand in circles. After a few clangs, she was able to barely block Wu Fengdeng's shot, but immediately afterwards, there were continuous heavy blows, making her unable to defend herself at all.

Eighty percent of Zhao Xunle's kung fu is in disguise and illusion. He is not good at frontal combat. Facing the violent Wu Fengdeng, he is like a small boat in a storm, which may be destroyed at any time.

"Help me!"

"Go to hell."

Wu Fengdeng dodged and rushed into her spine knife, and a sharp scorpion strike instantly slashed her neck, and blood burst out.

At that critical moment, Zhao Xunle's unpredictable face was full of gritting his teeth in shock and staring in disbelief. He had no time to react at all, and he felt a chill on his neck.

Bang!
Then Li Xian slashed with his sword, and in the crisis, the sun was blocked. Zhao Xunle was saved, and he took two steps back in fear, covering his neck.

Warm blood quickly flowed all over her palm. The wound was deep. If it had gone a little deeper, it would have been enough to cut off her neck. You can see how dangerous it was.

"This Wu Fengdeng is so powerful!" At this moment, Zhao Xunle had a deeper understanding of his fighting ability.

"Horse!"

Although he felt a little regretful that the shot failed to kill her, Wu Fengdeng did not dwell on it. He just shouted loudly, and saw his warhorse in the Zhao army neighing loudly and galloping towards him.

"We can't let him go!" Li Xian gritted his teeth and rushed forward.

Today, his Zhao State's 70,000-strong army surrounded them. The major strategic goal was to curb the momentum of Wang Ben's army, but for Li Xian, the real goal was to deal with Wu Fengdeng.

The battle of Jinyang made Wei Yu's Li Mu realize Wu Fengdeng's terrifying potential. If he was allowed to grow, he would become a great threat to the State of Zhao in the future.

That's why he could directly deploy 20,000 troops and surround Wu Fengdeng's subordinates with absolute military advantage, just to kill him!

If we let him run away, all our work tonight will be in vain!
Li Xian thought so, how could Wu Fengdeng not detect his intention? The moment he mounted his horse, he took out five arrows from the mechanism box and put them on the ninth-grade gilded bow.

Whoosh whoosh!
The arrow flew out, its armor-piercing power plus the force of the ninth-grade gilded bow made it impossible for Li Xian to ignore it. He could only slow down and cut it down.

But even with this delay, Wu Fengdeng had already ridden his horse to the east, and Yanri launched another raging charge, and in a few breaths he caught up with the troops in front.

At this time, the front line of the Fire Armor Army had already rushed out of the Zhao Army's encirclement. Thanks to the integrity of the formation, there were not many casualties. Seeing this, Wu Fengdeng finally breathed a sigh of relief and shouted loudly: "Bowmen, prepare!"

The archers at the front began to draw their arrows and gather their strength. When the entire army broke out of the encirclement of the Zhao army, Wu Fengdeng pulled the reins hard, and the horse neighed and turned around on the spot.

"put!"

At the command, hundreds of archers turned around, squatted and stood up in unison in clear layers, while other soldiers passed by both sides like water flowing over rocks, and then joined together.

shhhhhh!
In an instant, the hundred-meter distance between the Qin and Zhao armies was filled with dense arrows. The Zhao army in the front fell down like leeks, and the rain of arrows in the air made them hastily raise their shields to deal with it.

ho ho~
Wu Fengdeng stood there for a moment, panting, and then turned his horse again: "Retreat!"

At this time, the archers had already fired three rounds of shots. Under their cover, the rest of the Qin army had retreated three or four hundred meters. After receiving Wu Fengdeng's order, the rest of the Qin army mounted their horses and fled away.

The ground was littered with corpses and debris, and the Zhao army in front was in chaos for a while, until Li Xian pushed away the crowd and rushed out. Looking at the Qin army that had already distanced itself in the distance, a look of deep resentment finally emerged on his resolute face.

Still let him run away!

I thought these 20,000 people were enough to trap them to death, but I still underestimated the combat effectiveness of this army and Wu Fengdeng's leadership ability. Otherwise, anyone who came would have been wiped out here today!

"General Li? Should we chase him?!"

"Yeah, catch up!"

Li Xian frowned and said in a deep voice: "The enemy has too many cavalrymen to catch up. Pass my order and send a letter to General Zhao Boqian immediately to stretch the troops north and south and make sure to stop Wu Fengdeng from making a detour to join Wang Ben!"

"Here!"

Li Xian was well aware of the power of the Qin State's Fire Armor Army. At this time, they had already opened up a distance of nearly a mile. Even if he could lead his elite cavalry to catch up, he would most likely be killed by a surprise attack, and it would be uncertain who would kill whom at that time.

Therefore, the best solution at the moment is to organize troops to completely separate Wu Fengdeng and Wang Ben and force them into the hinterland of the east.

There was no Qin army stationed there, so they were destined to become an isolated force. Without reinforcements and food supplies, they would collapse sooner or later.

This is called catching a turtle in a jar!
Li Xian had made up his mind, and his depressed mood was relieved. When he turned around, Zhao Xunle had caught up with him. Several pieces of cloth were wrapped around his neck, and blood was still slowly spreading, showing how serious his injuries were.

"Ms. Zhao, you should go and heal Wei Yu." Li Xian said coldly.

Zhao Xunle snorted coldly and said, "It's just a minor injury. How can I leave before I get my revenge? Besides, you can't deal with Wu Fengdeng by yourself!"

Seeing that blood flowed out of his throat every time he spoke and he was still stubborn, Li Xian had no choice but to shut up.

With your fighting power, it's the same whether you're there or not...

On the other side, after escaping from the encirclement of the Zhao army, Wu Fengdeng did not stop, but continued to lead his troops for hundreds of miles before stopping at a small hill.

Bang~~
When the order to stop was given, the soldiers dropped their weapons one after another, fell to the ground, and gasped heavily.

It was extremely strenuous to break out of the Zhao army's encirclement, and he ran for hundreds of miles at full speed. Not to mention that he had completely exhausted his last bit of strength, even his warhorse was staggering and breathing like a bellows.

"Rest here, and go to the nearby river to fetch water and eat in a quarter of an hour."

Wu Fengdeng sat on a piece of bluestone with his head covered in sweat after taking off his helmet.

The weakness after the blood-rushing state washed over his body again and again, but fortunately it was not to the point of being completely exhausted.

"Mr. Wu, take your medicine quickly!"

Qingdai brought a few tonic pills and a water bottle in time. Wu Fengdeng swallowed them all and whispered, "Go to each camp and count the casualties."

"it is good!"

After he left, Wu Fengdeng took out a map from his arms and determined his current location after a quick identification.

"More than a hundred miles east of Qiluo Village, which is where we are now, there is only vast wasteland around it. There are no decent cities and very few villages."

"We are lucky. If there were Zhao troops stationed nearby, we would be powerless to save the situation."

He took a long breath and then began to think about his next plan.

"According to common sense, the key is to make a detour and join Wang Ben at this time. However, since Li Xian is the son of the famous general Li Mu, he must be familiar with the art of war and is likely to deploy troops to intercept." "So going west is not feasible. How about going north to find Wang Jian on the northern route? No, no, no, the progress of the northern route is now equal to that of the southern route. If we want to join them, we have to pass through the Zhao army."

"In that case, we can only go east and enter Taihang Mountain. The key is to find a place to hide and recuperate. Otherwise, the Zhao army will encircle and suppress us sooner or later. By then, we will be surrounded by enemies on all sides and have no way to retreat."

"The Taihang Mountains stretch for thousands of miles. A small group of us can't even make a splash if we enter. It's just the right place to hide. Even if the Zhao army wants to find us, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack."

"Yes, go into the mountains! This is the only way out now."

After weighing the pros and cons, Wu Fengdeng decided on his next destination. He immediately summoned the commanders of all the schools and passed on the arrangements. Only after he finished all this was he able to rest.

"Master Wu, your arrows are all replenished."

At this time, Qingdai came over holding his box of arrows, which contained thirty arrows neatly stacked inside. Wu Fengdeng nodded slightly and asked, "What are the casualties?"

Qingdai wiped the sweat from her forehead, sat down on the ground, rubbed her shoulders and said with a slight pain: "The overall casualties are not large, probably more than 170 people were lost."

"The kitchen medical team suffered zero casualties, the shield archers accounted for one-third, and the rest were losses of the vanguard battalion."

The reason they were able to break out of the encirclement in one fell swoop this time, in addition to the merits of their formation, was largely due to the vanguard battalion's efforts in breaking the formation and killing the enemy, which also caused the majority of their casualties.

Wu Fengdeng nodded. The casualties were still within his acceptable range, but it still couldn't extinguish the anger in his heart.

"Sooner or later, they will have to pay this vengeance a hundredfold!"

He ate the rest of the cake in two or three bites, and now that he had recovered some strength, he stood up and walked towards the soldiers.

Suffering such a huge loss was more or less a blow to their morale. When Wu Fengdeng walked among them, he could clearly feel their frustrated anger.

"Bros!"

He stopped, put his hands behind his back, and said loudly: "The Zhao army's counterattack was indeed unexpected, but that's all. They raised nearly 20,000 troops to encircle and suppress us, but now we have rushed out just the same. This further proves the Zhao army's incompetence and cowardice!"

"Besides, our casualties were not that great. The brothers who died were heroes. We who are still alive should think of ways to avenge them!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers were so enraged that their faces turned red and they roared even with dry food stuffed in their mouths.

"If I don't take revenge for this, I swear I won't be a human being!"

"Kill, kill, kill!"

"What the hell!"

……

Wu Fengdeng raised his hand, signaling for silence, and then said, "Don't judge a hero by his success or failure. I have already drawn up a revenge plan. Brothers, just eat and drink your fill! I will take you to avenge your grievances in a few days!"

"Here!"

Just a few simple words had an effect. Although it still couldn't bring the morale back to its peak, it was no longer in that low state.

When it was dawn and the sun was high in the sky, the troops, after having rested well, set out eastward towards Taihang Mountains.

After an hour of silence, the place was filled with soldiers again. Li Xian stood where Wu Fengdeng had originally stood, looked around, and took in all the traces of human activity, especially focusing on the horseshoe prints to the east.

"It seems that Wu Fengdeng is indeed a smart man. He knew that we would set up troops to intercept him, so he continued to head east."

Li Xian deployed defenses for hundreds of miles on both sides of Qiluo Village, but still did not find any trace of Wu Fengdeng trying to make a detour, so he led his troops to chase him. Seeing this, he instantly understood Wu Fengdeng's plan.

"Wouldn't the further east we go, the closer we would be to Wang Ben?" Zhao Xunle wondered.

Li Xian said calmly: "That's true, but going east is a good choice right now. The Taihang Mountains stretch endlessly, so hiding a team of 2,000 people is nothing."

After saying that, he quickly mounted his horse and shouted, "The vanguard troops continue to pursue eastward! The rest follow!"

I don't know if I can catch up with them now and stop them before they sneak into Taihang Mountains, but I still have to go. Even if I am a step late, I can find their approximate location in time and trap them in the mountains.

Li Xian just couldn't believe it. He couldn't catch this isolated group of soldiers in his own territory? !
And it turned out that he really couldn't catch it.

Wu Fengdeng had long anticipated that Li Xian would catch up soon, so he rode at full speed all the way and the team advanced at full speed, entering the dense and tall Taihang Mountains at the fastest speed.

Then they sent several hundred people to clear away all traces of the way to Taihang Mountains, and made a feint to lure the enemy, so that they could go deep into Taihang Mountains with confidence.

Coo coo coo coo

It was just after the beginning of winter, and the forests were still dense, with birds singing and animals calling one after another. The team marched in the forest until the afternoon and then rested on the spot.

"Li Qun, take a few hundred people to hunt nearby, skin and take the meat, and make it into military rations."

"Liu Tianlai, take people to find a water source and fetch water."

"Qingdai, you and the military medical team go to the nearby area to collect herbs."

"Here!"

Wu Fengdeng estimated that his group would not have supplies in the short term, so he had to make full use of all conditions to replenish military supplies.

Everyone was busy working, and he led half of the scout camp to continue eastward until they came out of the forest and stood on the east side of Taihang Mountain.

Looking around, the azure sky meets the vast land, with undulating peaks and lakes embedded in the earth like gems.

"This is the heartland of Zhao State."

Wu Fengdeng felt happy and heroic when he saw this, and then ordered: "Go, it's best to find some common people's clothes to dress up, be careful, and return when it's dark."

“Here!”

More than sixty scouts were ordered to go down the mountain to explore the terrain east of Taihang Mountains.

The world became quiet. In the evening, the sky was filled with golden clouds. The people sent by Wu Fengdeng returned one after another. They had hunted more than 3,000 kilograms of prey such as mountain rabbits and wild boars, and also had a good harvest of other river herbs.

This harvest finally brought more smiles to the faces of the soldiers of the Seventh Battalion. As the saying goes, if you have food in your hands, you will not be worried!

Afterwards, the scouts also returned and marked their exploration findings on the map, filling in the blank areas east of Taihang Mountain.

"General Wu!"

While he was discussing with Li Qun and others, the last scout came running over, panting, pointing to the northeast and shouting: "Granary! I saw the Zhao army's granary!"
