Just as Chu Ming was secretly giving instructions to Zheng He, the hundred Gale scouts who had arrived at the entrance of the canyon pulled on their reins and dismounted. Then, they formed teams of ten and carefully moved into the canyon.
"Sir, there are too many enemy scouts. I'm afraid it won't take long for them to discover us. Why don't we retreat before the main force behind us arrives?”Seeing the Gale scouts getting closer and closer to the ambush, Zheng He whispered with a worried expression.
"No!" Chu Ming shook his head." We haven't even seen the enemy's main force. How can we run without fighting?" "No matter what, we have to at least get rid of this scout team. Otherwise, our trip here will be completely in vain. That Wang Gang will definitely use this opportunity to make trouble!”
"Yes, Your Excellency's words make sense!" Zheng He nodded." With our Dare-to-die Battalion's combat strength and your presence, it will only take a moment for us to wipe out this scout troop. At that time, although we have not completed our mission, with this merit, we will be able to shut up Commander Wang Gang's mouth."”
"It's coming. Hold your breath and shut up!" While they were talking, the Gale Empire's scouts had finished checking the periphery of the canyon and were slowly approaching the hiding place of the daring death camp.
Three hundred feet, two hundred feet, one hundred feet, eighty feet…
It was getting closer and closer.
At this moment, all the members of the dare-to-die camp held their breaths. They were waiting for the enemy to enter the optimal ambush range of 300 feet, and they were ready to attack with lightning speed.
However, at this moment, an accident happened.
"Brothers, kill!"
Seeing that the scout was about to enter the ambush zone, Liu Yong, who was lying in ambush on the other side, actually shouted and led the people of the lieutenant camp to charge out in advance. In an instant, a thousand soldiers of the Commandant Battalion dashed out of the withered trees and charged madly towards the Gale Empire's scouts under the command of Commandant Liu Yong.
"Damn it, is this guy an idiot? Will there be a war…"
Seeing this, Zheng He couldn't help but curse. At this moment, the distance between the two sides was still more than 500 feet. Moreover, the other party was fully equipped with warhorses. Under such circumstances, anyone with a little battle experience would not choose to launch an attack at this moment. After all, other than Hou Tian experts, ordinary soldiers couldn't keep up with the speed of the warhorses. At this distance, when the lieutenants rushed over, the other party would have enough time to gallop away.
Sure enough, the scouts were a little flustered at first, but they quickly calmed down. Then, under the command of one of the leaders, they quickly mounted their horses and retreated out of the canyon.
"Sir, what should we do now?”Seeing that the scouts were about to escape, Zheng He said anxiously.
"Everyone, attack immediately. Kill as many as you can!”Before he could finish his sentence, Chu Ming disappeared with the black iron halberd in his hand. When he reappeared, he was 200 feet behind the scouts.
With Chu Ming's intelligence, he immediately guessed that Liu Yong had done this on purpose. Even a newcomer like him knew that this was not the right time to attack. How could a veteran like Liu Yong make such a low-level mistake? However, although he knew that Liu Yong must have ulterior motives, he did not have time to think too much. No matter what, he had to kill a few Gale scouts first. As for Liu Yong, it would not be too late to find trouble with him later.
" Warrior Skill-Half Moon Slash!"
When he was about 30 meters behind the scouts, Chu Ming suddenly swung his halberd. A huge curved blade of light instantly cut through the air and cut two scouts at the back of the group into eight pieces.
Chu Ming didn't slow down after the halberd attack. In just a few moments, he had already leaped into the middle of the scouts.
"Killing technique--
With a furious roar, a terrifying sound wave spread out in all directions with Chu Ming at the center. In an instant, dozens of well-trained warhorses were shaken to the point that their hooves went limp, and they collapsed to the ground. The Gale Scout on the back of the warhorses was also thrown out heavily.
"Die!"
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chu Ming swung his halberd and killed two Gale scouts who had been thrown off their horses.
"Sou!"
Just as Chu Ming was about to continue killing the fallen Gale scout, a sharp sound came from the right.
"Qiang!"
Sparks flew in all directions. Chu Ming swung his halberd to block the attack, and a 12-foot-long spear made of refined iron was knocked away. Looking up, the person who had attacked was the leader of the scouts.
"You guys retreat first, I'll cover the rear!"
With a loud shout, the leader of the scouts suddenly clamped his horse's belly and charged at Chu Ming with a horse-slaying saber. That kind of indomitable momentum coupled with the ferocious momentum of the horse under him was like a fierce tiger descending from the mountain, unstoppable.
The scout leader's intention was simple. Among all the enemies in ambush, Chu Ming was the only one charging at the front. The others were also a thousand feet away. As long as they could delay Chu Ming for a while, most of the other scouts could retreat safely. As for his own safety, he did not think too much about it. He believed that with his Houtian seventh stage strength, it was enough for him to kill his way out of the encirclement.
Unfortunately, the scout leader had overestimated himself and underestimated Chu Ming.
" Warrior Skill-Heavy Strike!"
Chu Ming didn't even look at the scout leader's fierce charge. He swung his halberd horizontally.
Boom! The air exploded. The scouting leader's horse-slaying saber was hit by Chu Ming and was sent flying. His entire body was also shaken off the horse by a terrifying force that was difficult to control. A large mouthful of blood was spat out from his mouth, and his eyes were filled with horror. He had never expected that this young boy who looked to be less than twenty years old was actually so powerful.
"Flash!"
Without thinking, the scout leader's figure flashed and he immediately fled like lightning. Previously, he had stayed behind to cover the rear because he was confident that he could retreat safely. However, the strength of this young general in front of him had far exceeded his expectations. If he continued to fight with him, he would definitely die. Under such circumstances, how could he dare to cut off the rear? The most important thing was to protect his own life.
"Can we escape?"
How could Chu Ming let such a big fish escape? He jumped up and chased after him like a meteor. In the blink of an eye, he had caught up to him.
"Sure-kill skill-Double Stab!"
The long halberd tore through the air. The cold halberd tip turned into hundreds of thousands of sharp lights and stabbed at the back of the scout leader in an instant.
"Not good!"
The scout leader had a bad feeling. It was too late to turn around and block. He hurriedly activated his body protection Genuine Qi and strengthened it to an unprecedented thickness on his back. At the same time, he clenched his right hand into a fist, wanting to counterattack the moment he blocked the opponent's attack.
Puchi!
The sound of a balloon being pierced rang out. The scout leader's protective zhen Qi did not last long under the halberd. It was pierced through in an instant. The shining silver halberd pierced straight into his back and then cleanly pierced through his chest.
Feeling the rapid loss of life, the scout leader's eyes widened. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, no sound came out. In the next moment, his tightly clenched right fist drooped down weakly. He died with grievances.
In just two moves, this Houtian seventh stage scout leader, who had been through hundreds of battles, died at Chu Ming's hands without any resistance.
"Captain!"
" Kill him and avenge the captain!"
……
Seeing their leader die in Chu Ming's hands, the dozen Gale scouts who knew that they couldn't escape stopped running. Their eyes were red as they charged at Chu Ming with their sabers.
"Good!"
Chu Ming snorted coldly when he saw the 10 Gale scouts charging at him. He disappeared in a flash. Then, he kept flashing around the 10 Gale scouts like a phantom. Every time he flashed, he would scream in pain.
After a few breaths, the screams stopped. At the same time, the dozen Gale scouts lay motionless in a pool of blood.
However, the death of these Gale scouts was not without value. At least, with their delay, the rest of the Gale scouts had already fled thousands of feet away and were about to leave the valley.
"Milord, are we still chasing?"
At this moment, the fastest Houtian warriors of the Dare-to-die Camp finally reached Chu Ming. As for the other weaker members of the daring death camp, including Zheng He, they were still a thousand feet away. As for the first to attack, the Lieutenant Battalion member was the last to arrive. He was still a hundred feet away from the last daring death camp member.
"No need!"
Chu Ming waved his hand coldly, then turned around and looked at the camp behind him. This time, if it wasn't for Lieutenant Liu Yong's deliberate tricks, none of the Gale scouts would have been able to escape. How could nearly half of them have escaped? If he didn't kill this bastard, it would be difficult to appease the anger in his heart.
However, Chu Ming's gaze swept across the camp three times and was surprised to find that Liu Yong and his adjutant had disappeared.
Suddenly, Chu Ming felt that something was wrong. He shouted at the lieutenant camp,""Where's your lieutenant? Where are you?"
"Eh?"
Hearing Chu Ming's words, all the officers were stunned. Then, they looked around in confusion.
"Eh? Where's the lieutenant?"
"It seemed to be here just now. Why is there no one here now?”
"What happened? Commandant and Adjutant Zhao are gone…"
" Not good, the lieutenant has run away…"
……
Very soon, the people of the Commandant Battalion also realized that something was wrong. They all started to shout loudly with fear on their faces.
Boom!
Right at this moment, an earth-shattering explosion suddenly resounded through the sky from within the canyon.
