Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Sword Twenty-two, Shengluo Wanxiang.
A strong sword energy burst out from his sea of consciousness. The sword shadows in the sky slowly overlapped, and Xiao Jingbai's figure appeared at the overlapping sword shadows.
Xiao Jingbai could feel that if he learned Sword 23, he would be able to break away from the restraint of the sword code and return to reality.
Lin Shu led 30,000 Red Flame Troops into the low-lying snow in the southeast of Dayu. From the perspective of military deployment, this was indeed the best route for a sneak attack. Xuan Bu would definitely place sentries in such a place.
In addition, Lin Shu had the Red Flame Army behind him raise their flag. The imperial secret sentries disguised as ordinary people quickly sent the military information to Xuan Bu in the Dayu Tent when Lin Shu led the Red Flame Army into the defense line.
Nie Feng watched as a snow-white pigeon flew up from a residential house. A faint smile appeared on his lips."The fish has taken the bait. I wonder if they will fall for it…"
Lin Shu's hand was on the thin sword hidden under the cloak. She let out a sigh of relief in her heart. Victory and defeat depended on this move. She could not make any mistakes.
" Don't worry, Big Brother Nie. Mister Nie Zhen's plans have never gone wrong. Xuan Bu will definitely come. I think he's looking forward to this battle as much as I am."
At the same time, the few Dayu secret sentries who had just thrown the pigeons out were still lying on the ground to monitor the movements of Lin Shu and the others so that they could report at any time.
"Boss, can you tell how many soldiers they have? They actually covered their bodies with snow. We can't tell at all."
The imperial subordinate sentry called 'boss' said with slight disdain,
"This is where your experience is lacking. Look at the flag that the enemy is raising. According to the calculation of 5000 soldiers per team, there are at least 90,000 Red Flame Army soldiers on it. With such a large-scale march, the Red Flame Army is attacking with all their forces. Unfortunately, they don't know that our Xuan General has already seen through everything! Hehe."
The essence of water attack was to block the upstream water. There was a small stream beside the marching route of Lin Shu and the others. A few days ago, Nie Feng led a small team of Red Flame Army soldiers to block the upstream of the stream. After a few days of water storage, it was enough to drown everything on the road.
The 30,000 Red Flame Troops who were used as bait had already installed air bags in their armor. Although they couldn't resist the cold, they could keep themselves from being drowned and keep a chance of survival.
Imperial Army Marshal Camp-
Urgent report from the front line.
A soldier barged into the marshal's tent. Xuan Bu stood up and took the letter from the soldier. After reading it carefully, he burst into laughter.
"Hahahahaha! Lin Xie, that old fellow, finally couldn't help but raise his troops to fight.
"Congratulations, Marshal! Marshal, what should we do now?"
The Red Flame Army only had 100,000 troops, but they were evenly matched with the 200,000 imperial troops. So far, the Red Flame Army had a small advantage. If they did not take down the other party, they were afraid that the imperial family of Dayu would be dissatisfied.
" Lin Xie is Lin Xie after all. Even if it's a sneak attack, he chose the best route. The terrain here is relatively low, and the surrounding cliffs are relatively far apart. We can't set up an ambush here, so we can only face it head-on."
Xuan Bu sat back in her seat, her eyes narrowed into a line. Lin Xie knew himself very well. He knew that the imperial army had always been able to turn the tables when faced with a sneak attack in the past. Therefore, this time, the sneak attack was chosen on a low-lying terrain that could not be ambushed. Even if the sneak attack failed, they could still retreat head-on.
"Lin Xie, this guy, is holding the heart of fighting to the death with me to sneak attack. Do you really think that your Red Flame Army can fight ten people alone? Our Imperial Army is not the trash that you fought before…Chai Ming! Beat the drums, all troops are ready."
Xuan Bu grabbed the armor that symbolized the marshal of the imperial army and walked out of the tent. Chai Ming and the twenty-three soldiers walked to the drill ground and prepared to assemble.
The imperial army was not afraid of a head-on confrontation, but the Red Flame Army was afraid. Although the enemy's individual combat ability was very strong, the Great Yu Imperial Army was also famous and not much worse than the Red Flame Army. Xuan Bu was very confident in facing them head-on.
Boom!
Boom!
Dong!
Three consecutive long sounds spread throughout the Merlin battlefield. This was the drumbeat of the entire army. Lin Shu and Nie Feng looked at each other. Their plan had succeeded!..。
Lin Xie, who was lying in ambush near the snowy road, also heard the drumming. Nie Zhen was waiting at the upstream water level.
The sound of Xuan Bu leading 200,000 imperial troops spread across the snowy Meiling Mountains. Lin Shu pulled out the long sword at her waist and got off the horse. She walked out of the Red Flame Army step by step. Xuan Bu, who saw this scene from afar, pulled off her cloak and grabbed the iron gloves on her hands. She also left the range of the imperial army and rushed toward Lin Shu.
" Hmph, Lin Shu, I really miss the last battle."
Lin said,"Our two armies haven't arrived yet. Let's use this time to finish the fight from last time."
whew
As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Shu threw her long sword at Xuan Bu. In a flash, Xuan Bu opened her iron hand to cover the flying sword.
" A person who is a sword actually threw out his own weapon. It seems that Xiao Jingbai didn't teach you carefully enough."
The boundless power followed the iron hand and slapped the sword to the ground, but Xuan Bu did not feel the slightest joy. The hand that had just slapped the flying sword seemed to have hit the air, and there was nothing in her hand.
" Nine Swords Beyond the Swords-Palm Breaking Form."
Lin Shu's soft cry came from the void. The flying sword that Xuan Bu should have grabbed in her hand scattered into hundreds of sword flowers. Xuan Bu's entire set was cut into pieces by the continuous sword flowers, and several wounds appeared on her body. In the first round of confrontation, Lin Shu had an obvious advantage. If he succeeded in his first attack, he would definitely pursue it.
Lin Shu tapped the ground with the tip of her sword and used the force to turn around and stab Xuan Bu behind her. The speed of her movements was far faster than Xuan Bu could imagine.
"Do you think you can defeat me like this? You're still far from it!
Xuan Bu, who didn't have time to turn around, hammered her hands on the ground. A huge internal force exploded on the ground, sending Lin Shu and her sword flying with a visible shock wave.
Lin Shu forcefully turned her body in mid-air and landed on the ground. She took dozens of steps back before she could stabilize her body.
"Hmph, you finally used your true strength. I've been prepared for this. Take this! Nine Swords Beyond the Swords-Qi Breaking Stance.
"No! This was impossible! This is impossible. How can a sword technique without inner strength break through my [World Martial Arts]?"
In just a moment, Lin Shu had shattered all the attacks and arrived in front of Xuan Bu. When the dust settled, Xuan Bu was shocked when she saw Lin Shu's bone-chilling eyes.
The sword was very slow, but Xuan Bu couldn't move at all. She could only watch as Lin Shu's sword stabbed toward her chest.
"No, I can't! General! Take the halberd!"
As a cry of surprise spread across the battlefield, a black shadow shattered Lin Shu's sword that was stabbing at Xuan Bu, and Lin Shu himself was sent flying ten meters away by the impact.
"Damn it."
Lin Shu was annoyed and looked at the other party coldly.
At this moment, Xuan Bu was holding a one-piece two-piece long spear in her hand. The spearhead was shaped like a well and emitted a dense blood qi.
Heavenly Halberd…
It was rumored that when Lu Bu was killed by Cao Cao, he had left behind his experience in using the Heaven Scorching Halberd and its accompanying martial arts. However, after the fall of the Jin Dynasty, it had never appeared again.
Could it be that the Divine Weapon Manual is in Xuan Bu's hands?"
" I almost failed miserably. In the end, I was still forced to use this move. Ah…"
Xuan Bu's voice became a little strange, as if something was tugging at her throat. Her transparent internal strength also turned into a clear dark purple. Lin Shu could vaguely see tens of thousands of vengeful souls roaring behind her.
"Daliang is really full of talents. You should be proud that you were able to force out my 'power of ghosts and deities' before you even reached the age of coronation. Take this."
Xuan Bu lightly stomped on the ground, and the gravel on the ground rose into the air. The halberd instantly smashed the gravel at a speed faster than an arrow.
In just a moment, Lin Shu was pierced through by dozens of gravel. If he hadn't dodged the critical parts in a split second, Lin Shu would have died from that move.
The sword had been broken, and Lin Shu had lost the ability to fight against Xuan Bu. Nie Feng, the vanguard general of the Red Flame Army, rushed over from afar and hurriedly pulled out his crossbow and shot at Xuan Bu.
However, the arrow was shattered by the powerful internal energy within ten meters of him. It could not stop Xuan Bu from advancing.
"Not good! Send the signal! Hurry up!"
The messenger beside Nie Feng hurriedly took out the black fire signal flare in his pocket and shot it into the sky. Nie Zhen immediately ordered his men to push away the huge rock blocking the river. Tens of thousands of tons of water poured down, and the 30,000 Red Flame Soldiers immediately opened the airbags under their saddles to deal with the incoming flood.
As the sound of the flood echoed in the valley, Xuan Bu stopped in a daze. Lin Shu opened the air sac in her armor and laughed while spitting out blood.
"Xuan Bu. "You would never have dreamed that we would use such a method to fight to the death with you, right? 200,000 imperial troops have already entered the Merlin Snow Path. It's already too late for you to retreat.
Not good!
Xuan Bu hurriedly gathered her internal energy and shouted,"
"Retreat!"
After the explosion, Chai Mingming, who was the Left Front General, knew that things were not going well. He received Xuan Bu's order and immediately ordered his men to retreat. However, the 200,000-strong army could not retreat just like that. Xuan Bu shouted in anger and looked at Lin Shu.
"Why? Your 100,000 Red Flame Troop is here too! Do you really want to die together?"
Hahahahaha!
"Xuan Bu! Take a good look! "Our Red Flame Army said that we would use 100,000 troops to ambush you, but we only let them keep a few more flags and let your sentries send the wrong message. 30,000 for 200,000, it's worth it."
Xuan Bu gripped the Heavenly Halberd tightly. Looking at the surging flood at the front, he finally made up his mind. He shouted to the imperial army behind him,""Abandon the horses! Take off your armor! Fight to the death with the Red Flame Army.
Chai Ming, who was at the back, was stunned. After hesitating for a moment, his eyes became fierce. He took off his battle robe and ran in the direction of the flood. The 200,000 imperial troops also quickly removed their defenses and followed Chai Ming's Red Flame Army to attack.
The flood had reached behind Lin Shu. The Red Flame Army, who had unfortunately been washed off their horses by the flood, untied the air bags in their armor. The huge impact of the flood also aggravated Lin Shu's injuries.
"I, Xuan Bu, have greatly changed my plan to be attacked by the enemy today and put you in danger. If there is a next life, I, Xuan Bu, will definitely apologize to you…Unparalleled Demon God!
More than a thousand of the 30,000 Red Flame soldiers were killed or injured by Xuan Bu's move, and half of them were seriously injured. Lin Shu, who was facing this move at a close distance, fainted.
A pair of big hands grabbed Lin Shu's shoulder armor tightly. Nie Feng, the general of the Red Flame Vanguard, poked his head out of the water. He held the silver-headed red spear in his other hand and stabbed it accurately into Xuan Bu's chest with the help of the flood.
"No! Marshal."
Chai Ming held his sword with both hands and rushed toward Xuan Bu, but the flood had already covered Xuan Bu and swallowed everyone, including Chai Ming and the 200,000 soldiers.
The 200,000 imperial troops and the 30,000 Red Flame Army were stirred up by the flood. Many of the soldiers of the two armies who floated up quickly fought with each other, but more than half of the 200,000 imperial troops drowned. The three Red Flame Army soldiers did not suffer much damage due to the existence of air bags.
However, the air sacs had also become an obstacle for the 30,000 Red Flame Army. In front of the imperial troops who were familiar with water, the Red Flame Army, which had been brought out of the flood by the air sacs, became lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
Lin Xie, who had rushed over from Merlin Hill, immediately made up his mind when he saw this situation. He raised the sword in his hand and shouted,"
" Those who are familiar with the water, take off your armor and jump into the water to kill the remaining rebels. The rest of you, use your bows and arrows to kill the rebels who climb ashore." After saying that, he led the way and jumped into the water.
The 'water battle' lasted for a day and a night. The 200,000 imperial troops were all wiped out, but no one found Xuan Bu and Chai Ming. Including the Red Flame Army that joined later, there were a total of 100,000 casualties, 30,000. Major Lin Shu fell into a serious coma, and the Red Flame Vanguard Battalion's general Nie Feng was slightly injured. In the end, the Red Flame Army won the battle, but they also suffered a heavy loss.
