The world of film and television begins from childhood

Xia Jiang is now the head of Xuan Jing Si and the person most trusted by Emperor Liang. In terms of official position, he is higher than Xie Yu now, but in terms of commanding the army, he is not as good as generals like Xie Yu who have a military background.

Although Xie Yu was also surprised, he remained calm and said calmly: "Don't worry, I'm prepared."

After saying that, he called the deputy general next to him, gave him a few instructions, and then the deputy general left quickly.

Facing Xia Jiang's doubtful gaze, Xie Yu said confidently: "A siege must have gaps. Simply blocking them will only make them fight to the death. Only by leaving them a little hope will they feel they have a chance. Little do they know that when they think they have successfully broken through, that is the beginning of the disaster, haha."

Although he knew that the Red Flame Army and the Dayu Imperial Army had been fighting bloody battles for several days and might have been exhausted, what they were planning was too shocking, so he had to be fully prepared. Before the attack, he had already made a plan and thought of the possibility that the Red Flame Army might be able to break through successfully.

So he had made preparations long ago, but he did not expect that Lin Xie was still besieged, while the Chiyu Camp led by Lin Shu with several thousand men was about to break through successfully.

Xie Yu was full of confidence, but Xia Jiang didn't dare to completely believe him. He could only say in a deep voice: "I hope so."

Zhou Chen didn't know how many people he had killed, nor did he know how much time had passed. He felt severe pain in many parts of his body, and there was a wound about ten centimeters long on his face, with blood and flesh visible, which was very horrifying.

But Zhou Chen couldn't care less and just followed the main force to charge. As long as he could stay alive, what did it matter how many injuries he suffered?

It was unknown how many people were killed or injured, but the Chiyu Camp finally broke through the siege and, under the leadership of Lin Shu, quickly rushed towards the Juehun Valley.

Now they have no other choice but this one. If they want to survive, they can only go to the Valley of Absolute Souls.

Zhou Chen took the time to look back, only to find that the direction they had just come from was filled with flames. Xie Yu and Xia Jiang were indeed ruthless. In order to destroy the Red Flame Army, they had already started setting fire to the forest. Such an approach would even hurt their own people.

"Father is handsome!"

Hearing the voice, Zhou Chen turned around and saw Lin Shu's face covered in blood and tears, with a look of sadness and pain.

"Xiao Shu..."

Zhou Chen comforted him, "Marshal Lin is very experienced and has encountered all kinds of desperate situations. There is always a way out for everyone. He will definitely escape successfully, so before we meet up with Marshal Lin, we must protect ourselves."

Lin Shu was also a veteran of the battlefield. He nodded vigorously, "Yes, my father will be fine. We must live. We must live. The blood of the Red Flame Army cannot be shed in vain."

Being stabbed in the back by one's own family is more painful than being killed by the enemy. He doesn't know what happened in the end, but the only thing he wants to do is to return to Jinling alive and seek justice for the dead Red Flame Army.

Zhou Chen sighed quietly. Lin Shu still held out hope at this time, but he didn't know that if he could really return to Jinling alive this time, the result would only be more tragic.

Wei Zheng was leading the Chiyu Camp at this time, guarding the only entrance to the Juehun Valley to prevent the Western Border Army from rushing in.

Although they have a certain geographical advantage, everyone knows that Juehun Valley is their last retreat and they have nowhere to retreat.

Although they knew that they were doomed to die, no one in the Chiyu Camp thought of surrendering, let alone escaping. It seemed that as long as Lin Shu was still there, the Chiyu Camp would not lose its morale, and they would have no regrets even if they fought to the last man.

In order to guard the entrance to the Valley of Absolute Souls, the Chiyu Camp worked tirelessly. When one wave ran out of strength, another wave would take its place. People kept dying, but soon new ones would take their places.

Zhou Chen stepped back and simply treated the wounds on his body. He was really too tired, so tired that he couldn't even feel the pain in his body.

"If this continues, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for long."

Zhou Chen knew that they only had more than 2,000 people left. As long as the Western Border Army eliminated the main force of the Red Flame Army, these people would not be able to resist at all.

Lin Shu hurried over, took a few breaths, and then said, "We have checked. There is a cliff behind the Soulless Valley. Apart from this, there is only this passage. We have no way out."

Although he already knew the result, Zhou Chen still felt a chill in his heart.

He had traveled through more than a dozen worlds, and after his first time through, he was in a desperate situation.

On this day, his experience was even more exciting than that of decades of experience: war, murder, bloody battles, desperate situations...

If he had not traveled through more than a dozen worlds and his will had not been tempered to a certain degree, he would probably not be able to hold on for long and would have collapsed if he encountered such a situation.

Those who have not experienced war will never understand how terrible and cruel war is.

"Cliff, do you want to take a gamble?"

Zhou Chen's eyes flickered. In novels, the protagonists would encounter opportunities after jumping off a cliff. Lin Shu in the TV series also survived after falling off a cliff.

But if he really had to do it himself, he really didn't have that much courage. The fact that Lin Shu was still alive showed that he was lucky and should not die, but he didn't know if he also had this kind of luck?

"Xiaochen, are you afraid of death?" Lin Shu suddenly asked Zhou Chen with a gloomy face.

Zhou Chen smiled brightly: "Afraid, of course I am afraid, aren't you afraid?"

This answer was beyond Lin Shu's expectation. He was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and said, "Of course I am afraid, but when I think that I can die together with everyone, I am not so scared anymore."

"maybe."

Zhou Chen did not refute. Everyone has his own ideas. People like Lin Shu regard many things as more important than life, so they are not afraid of death.

But he is different. He thinks differently. He always feels that when a person dies, it is like a light going out. There is nothing left after death.

He obtained the system and possessed the ability to travel through time and space, so he did not want to die. If he did not want to die, he would naturally be afraid of death.

It's just that he was able to control this fear, otherwise he would not have been able to hold on until here.

It was already dark when we won the previous victory, but now the sky was beginning to brighten and we could vaguely see the light rising in the sky.

The rising sun represents the origin of life, but for Zhou Chen and others, it is a death sentence.

Fire, fire all over the sky.

Seeing that he had been attacking Juehun Valley without success for a long time, Xie Yu did not delay any longer and directly used fire attack.

There are many trees in the Meiling area, among which plum trees are the most numerous. Therefore, once fire attack is used, a raging fire can be set off in a short time.

The flames quickly spread to the Juehun Valley, accompanied by thick smoke, which had a great impact on the Chiyu Camp in the Juehun Valley.

Just when the Akabane Camp was in trouble, the Western Border Army launched a frenzied offensive, forcing the Akabane Camp to retreat again and again, and it seemed that they were about to lose the intersection.

Wei Zheng ran in front of Lin Shu and Zhou Chen. Because of the flames and smoke, his entire face turned black and his eyes were red.

"Young Marshal, the brothers can't hold on any longer. We will help you evacuate later."

Lin Shu had a complicated expression. Where else could he retreat to?

Zhou Chen also had mixed feelings. There was a cliff behind the Juehun Valley. Apart from jumping off the cliff, he could only fight to the death with the Western Border Army.

The chance of surviving jumping off a cliff is too low, but the chance of fighting to the death with the Western Border Army is also slim.

Lin Shu quickly made a decision: "Since there is nowhere to retreat, we only have one way. We are the invincible Red Flame Army. We will never surrender and will fight to the death."

Lin Shu's roar infected everyone around him. In fact, at this point, everyone was determined to die.

There were people who wanted to survive, but the slaughter just now by the Western Border Army did not give them any chance to surrender. They were all killed, which ended their last hope.

Lin Shu raised his weapon and shouted, "Brothers, if we all die today, let us be brothers again down there."

"Young Marshal." "Young Marshal."…………

Without saying another word, Lin Shu roared, "Kill." Then he took the lead as a soldier and took the lead in killing the Western Border Army that was gradually rushing into the Juehun Valley.

Zhou Chen also had no choice. He wanted to live, but he absolutely could not let Lin Shu die. His mission still required Lin Shu. Otherwise, it would be too slim for him to complete the main task of clearing his name by himself.

In addition to this, Lin Shu had also saved his life before. He was a man who would repay a favor. Lin Shu had saved him, and he couldn't just watch Lin Shu die for the sake of his own life.

This choice was completely contrary to Gou Yidao's principles and also inconsistent with his somewhat selfish character in the past, but he made this choice without hesitation.

Although the Chiyu Camp, under the leadership of Lin Shu, had tried their best, the absolute difference in numbers meant that the number of people in the Chiyu Camp was decreasing, and the surrounding flames were growing larger and larger, as if they were going to burn the entire Juehun Valley to ashes.

This situation has really reached a desperate state for the Akabane Camp. If nothing unexpected happens, it is only a matter of time before the entire army is wiped out.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 803: Burning the Soulless Valley, Falling off the Cliff

"Young Marshal, retreat. The brothers will swear to help you evacuate at all costs."

Wei Zheng shouted excitedly at Lin Shu. Now they were in a desperate situation, but Wei Zheng was so loyal that he did not forget to protect Lin Shu.

Lin Shu remained silent. Retreat? Where else could they retreat to?

Even if there really was a way out, he couldn't bear to watch his brothers using their bodies to save him. The most important thing was that what had happened since last night had made him want to die. He would rather die with his father and brothers than live alone in this world.

Wei Zheng was so anxious that he was fuming, but he couldn't force Lin Shu to leave, so he could only worry.

Turning his eyes, he saw Zhou Chen and thought of the relationship between Zhou Chen and Lin Shu, so he said pleadingly: "Ah Chen, please persuade the young commander."

Zhou Chen smiled bitterly. If Lin Shu could be easily convinced by him, he would not be Lin Shu anymore.

He felt that his condition was very bad. The thick smoke made his eyes very uncomfortable, and the gradually increasing temperature around him made his skin hot and itchy. If it continued, he was afraid that he would not be able to stand it for an hour.

"Fuck, you're not really going to die here, are you?"

Zhou Chen felt uneasy. He hadn't had this feeling for a long time. But after coming to this world, he was worried about his life every moment.

At this critical moment, he found that none of the skills he possessed were really useful.

Although the Western Border Army was in the same predicament as them, the key point was that they had more soldiers and generals, and if someone couldn't hold on any longer, they could be replaced. But they had no one to replace now, and everyone was fighting for their lives.

The comrades around him fell one after another. Originally, there were thousands of people who broke through to the Valley of Absolute Souls, but now, there are less than a thousand people. However, the enemy is endless, one wave after another. Although more people died than the Chiyu Camp, there are more people who can hold on.

Lin Shu and Wei Zheng were the strongest men in the Chiyu Camp, but even so, they were all covered in wounds. Lin Shu was even stabbed in the abdomen by a spear and was bleeding profusely.

Zhou Chen was not much better than them, but as a doctor at this time, he had a slight advantage, and he could also add attribute points, so he could barely control his injuries.

Lin Shu and Zhou Chen stood back to back, working together to fight off the enemy. He said loudly, "Xiao Chen, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have let you come with me."

Zhou Chen cursed: "Why are you still saying this kind of nonsense now? If you hadn't saved me before, I would have died a long time ago. Now consider it as I'm returning my life to you."

"Okay, let's go to the underworld together today. We won't be alone there."

"Don't say such discouraging words, I still want to live, I still want revenge, we all have to live."

Lin Shu gave a miserable smile. How could he live?

Even for a talented young man like him who was so proud and unruly, there was not much light in his eyes at this moment.

At this moment, the ground suddenly shook, as if thousands of troops were approaching. Then Zhou Chen and others discovered that the Western Border Army blocking the entrance to Juehun Valley suddenly became a commotion, with people and horses falling to the ground. Then a scene that shocked them happened.

Hundreds of cavalrymen quickly rushed into the entrance of Juehun Valley, killed the Western Border Army, and rushed into Juehun Valley. The leader was none other than the commander of the Red Flame Army, Lin Xie.

It was really shocking that Lin Xie, who was surrounded by tens of thousands of Western Border troops, was able to break out of the siege and lead hundreds of cavalry into the Juehun Valley to join up with the Chiyu Camp.

With the help of Lin Xie and other reinforcements, the Western Border Army, which had already entered the Valley of Absolute Souls, was driven out of the Valley by the concerted efforts of the Red Flame Army. They could only block the entrance and fight with the Red Flame Army.

On a commanding height outside the Juehun Valley, Xie Yu and Xia Jiang could still not hide their shock and horror. They originally thought that Lin Xie was trapped, but they never expected that Lin Xie could break through the siege, fight his way into the Juehun Valley, and meet up with Lin Shu and others.

Xia Jiang's voice was bone-chillingly cold: "I will not be able to rest until Lin Xie is dead."

Xie Yu glanced at Xia Jiang. His idea was the same as Xia Jiang's. Since he had decided to take action against Lin Xie and the Chiyan Army, he definitely did not want to leave any trouble behind.

"Don't worry, Juehun Valley is a dead place. Even if we let them in, they will die."

With a sneer on his face, Xie Yu called his deputy general and asked him to continue sending people to burn the Juehun Valley and at the same time surround the Juehun Valley and not allow anyone to escape.

Xia Jiang said: "I have brought the roster of the Red Flame Army. Each of them has a hand card. After the end, we will check them one by one, especially the generals of the Red Flame Army. We must make sure that everyone's hand cards are found."

Xie Yu frowned and said, "This is not easy. With such a big battle, plus we set the mountain on fire, there will be corpses everywhere. It will be difficult to find all the cards."

Xia Jiang said fiercely: "No matter how difficult it is, we must do it. We must not leave any remnants of the Red Flame, especially those generals. They are loyal to Lin Xie."

"I see."

Xie Yu did not refute. In this transaction between him and Xia Jiang, Xia Jiang was actually the dominant one, and it was because of Xia Jiang that he had this opportunity to perform.

In the Juehun Valley, the Lin family father and son met again in desperate situation, and they were both extremely excited.

"Father is handsome!"

"Xiao Shu!"

The father and son hugged each other, Lin Shu was already in tears. Even a man as strong as Lin Xie shed tears at this moment.

After all, he was a tough guy who had been on many battles. Lin Xie quickly calmed himself down. He was indeed happy to see his son was still alive, but now was not the time to be happy.

"Xiao Shu, Dad is sorry for you."

"Father, please don't say that. No one knows why this happened. I don't understand. We clearly helped the court defeat the Great Yu Imperial Army. Instead of sending troops to support us, why did the court encircle and suppress us after our great victory? Is this really the case that the cunning rabbit dies and the running dog is cooked?"

Lin Xie comforted him, "Xiao Shu, I know you are unwilling, but we are not only fighting for His Majesty, but also for the millions of people in Daliang. Don't hold grudges. Our Lin family will protect Daliang from generation to generation."

Zhou Chen, who was standing aside, felt sad when he heard what Lin Xie said.

From a modern people's perspective, Lin Xie is simply blindly loyal. Even at this point, he is still speaking for the court and thinking about protecting Daliang.

But in today's era, where imperial power is supreme in feudal society, it is not surprising that Lin Xie has such thoughts. I am afraid that many people in the world will have the same idea as him.

To put it more deeply, this is the ideological confinement influenced by the times.

Lin Xie suddenly looked at Zhou Chen and sighed, "Xiao Chen, you are right. If I had taken your words to heart at the time, perhaps the ending would not have been so bad."

Zhou Chen shook his head and said, "Lin Shuai, it's useless. They have already prepared for an ambush. Even if we are prepared, I'm afraid it won't be much better than it is now."

Yes, for the Red Flame Army, the cruelest thing is time. If they were given one more day, they would not collapse so quickly.

But Xia Jiang and Xie Yu had already made plans and certainly would not give them time and opportunity.
