On the dim Eviscerate Mountain, Ji Ye looked painful and stared at the Zhishui Mirror in front of him.
In the small mirror, it could be vaguely seen that the coalition forces were like packs of hungry wolves, tearing apart the helpless and hesitant Southern troops from all directions.
They were like lambs waiting for the slaughter, trembling and waiting for the butcher's knife to fall.
Death is not terrible. The Southern Army is not that fragile. What is terrible is being blindfolded and dying for no reason. It is a meaningless death. You can't see where your opponent is until you die. The sword in his hand, the strength in his body, and the years of hard work have no place to show off.
This feeling of powerlessness makes people angry, helpless, numb, and heartbroken.
There is no fighting before Zhululing. The fighting is heading towards Jishui Terrace and towards the strongholds and camps on both sides. The Confederate Army has lost four of its original seven hills, and behind them are the former army camp and Eviscerate Mountain.
From time to time, people came in and reported how many people they had brought back. But this pitiful number is not only uninspiring, but even more depressing. Too few people come back.
These are relatively large teams that have not been broken up, and other scattered people can only let it go. Using such a large mirror to find one or two people is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Wu Gen sat aside. He had ordered that in addition to necessary defense needs, all the Zhishui Mirrors of the Northern Army should be used to return to rescue people. The battle was no longer possible. The most important thing now was to hold on to these camps and defend them. Capture the deer ridge and wait for a possible turning point.
"Okay, don't give me such a desperate look. The battle is not over yet, let's quickly discuss the arrangements for the future. Otherwise, I'm afraid we won't be able to evacuate the capital from Zhululing, and we'll all have to die here. " Wu Gen roughly pulled Ji Ye up and threw a bottle of wine to him.
Ji Jing looked sad, glanced at Wu Gen, and tried to persuade him: "Young Master, the matter has come to this, we can only look back. The lives of our subordinates are all in our hands, so we still need to find a proper way to deal with it." good."
Ji Ye picked up the flask, drank a few big sips, and slammed the table, "If I don't avenge this revenge, I, Ji Ye, won't be able to see my father and brother again. Wu Gen, Ji Jing, tell me, in this situation, , how should our army respond."
"shrink."
"Hold on."
Wu Gen and Ji Jing spoke at the same time, but their meanings were quite different. They can no longer move forward. Based on the current situation, the Confederate army can only seek death if they move forward.
Especially what I saw in the mirror just now is that although the group of people led by Gu Baicao didn't appear to be anything special from the outside, in the mist, they could come and go freely, and they were like gods of murder. It is estimated that no fewer than five thousand Confederate soldiers died under their hands. How can we withstand such an opponent outside?
The current plan is to stick to the camp and use the limited water mirror to resist the opponent's attack. As for withdrawing from the mist, whether it can be withdrawn is another matter. Since the Gu family can set up such a barrier, they can let the fog continue to extend.
Moreover, leaving a strong camp to fight the enemy in the field, when the morale of the Confederate army was so low, was tantamount to seeking death.
Ji Jing glanced at Wu Gen, and a ray of light flashed through his eyes like a cold pool, "Wu Zhenfu destroyed most of the Flying Tiger Army this time, and found out the secret of the barrier-breaking pupil. If you have any ideas, please let me know." He said, at this critical moment, please stop hiding your treasures."
Wu Gen raised his eyebrows and glanced at the other party, knowing that Ji Jing doubted him, he sighed slightly, "Ji Zhenfu, those who are clean will themselves be clean. It is indeed as you said, at this juncture, we must work together to fight against the stubborn enemy."
Our army lost this battle because of the mist, and was caught off guard. Now I want to break through the fog, but there is no good way in the short term. The only solution for now is to bring our opponents to the same situation as us. I just interrogated the people of the Gu family. The reason why Zhishuijing could see the scene in the fog was precisely because of the existence of the barrier-breaking pupil.
Therefore, my idea is that each army should hold tight and be careful to withstand the opponent's offensive. With Zhishuijing here, I won't have a problem holding the camp. In addition, send some capable warriors to sneak attack where the barrier is broken. Since this thing is so important, the enemy will definitely send powerful people to guard it. So I want to ask Zhenfu to go with me and find a way to destroy this thing. When neither the enemy nor we can see clearly what is happening in the fog, we will have a chance to engage in a fair fight with the enemy. "
"Okay." Ji Jing thought for a moment and nodded in agreement, "How many people are needed."
"It's useless to have more troops. The enemy must have sent heavy troops to protect them. Thousands of people passing by will be of no avail. A dozen or so of us are enough. If we can make a sneak attack, it's best to make a sneak attack." Wu Gen took off his Sky-shattering Bow and handed it to him. When he arrived in front of the other party, "This thing is for the use of Zhen Fu. If you get the chance, just shoot down the strange eye with one arrow."
Ji Jing stroked the big black bow and frowned slightly, "When should we act? As you said, those strange eyes can't see the movement outside the fog. Do we need to go out of the fog and take a detour to sneak attack?" .”
"When working at night, you might as well pretend to be a traitor and kill through the fog." Wu Gen stood up, picked up a piece of paper on Ji Ye's desk, and drew the approximate location of the barrier-breaking pupil, which is a few meters away from the mist. A hundred steps away.
"We directly touched the edge of the fog, and asked Zhen Fu to try to shoot down the barrier-breaking pupil. However, since I have already been out of the fog once today, I want the coalition forces to take precautions. We still send a man from the northern military camp The stronghold emitted mist to attract the attention of the coalition forces and create opportunities for us to make a sneak attack."
"This is a very good move." Ji Jing nodded and responded, "But who are you going to choose for this sneak attack?"
"Just pick some capable troops. I plan to only take Zhang Wuyang, Luo Zhang and Zhuo Ke. As for the town of Zhenfu, we can decide by ourselves." Wu Gen thought for a while and prepared to send four people from the Northern Army.
"I'll go too." Ji Ye said calmly from the side.
Wu Gen and Ji Jing were both stunned, and turned to look at Ji Ye, "No, you are the governor and you must guard the central army. Otherwise, if the coalition forces make any big moves during this period, there will not even be a person in charge in the army." No."
"Haha." Ji Ye smiled miserably and shook his head. "If the Northern and Southern armies lose this battle, how can I go to see my father and brother? Success or failure depends on this. Don't try to persuade me. I will ask Ji Rui to bring a few people with him. Up."
Wu Gen turned his head and glanced at Ji Rui, who had been standing behind the case. He didn't react at all, as if the sneak attack had nothing to do with him.
As a result, after several arguments, ten people participated in the sneak attack. In addition to the four members of the Northern Army, there were also Ji Ye, Ji Rui and two mausoleum guards. Ji Jing only brought one of his own guards.
Wu Gen and the others simply rested peacefully at the Ebony Mountain Camp to recharge their batteries. Now that the major fighting outside has subsided, the coalition forces are entering Jishuitai one after another to eliminate the remaining Confederate soldiers.
That's how fighting is. The battle between the two sides may come to a quick conclusion, but it's not that easy to clear out the scattered soldiers of the other side. Especially in the mist, although the coalition forces had childlike water mirrors, their eyesight was limited after all, and they walked cautiously for fear of taking a wrong step.
Coupled with the complex terrain of Zhuolu Ridge, it is not easy to find someone on weekdays, so the process of clearing up has been relatively slow. Moreover, the scenes captured by the Zhishui Mirror are limited after all, and the large regiments can clearly see them. Those who are more than ten or twenty people cannot be seen in the mirror at all, and can only be pushed through bit by bit like a comb.
While waiting, Ji Xie suddenly hurried into the tent, holding a helmet in his hand. This thing was seized from the ancient white grass, and some of it was given to Ji Xie by Ji Ye, wondering if he could figure out its use.
Ji Xie walked up to Ji Ye, leaned over and whispered a few words. Ji Ye raised his head suddenly, "Really, so fast."
Ji Xie took a step back and leaned over and said, "My subordinate once knew a rune master from the Gu family and was very interested in his rune skills, so he used some means to get something from him. This helmet is made of The Sky Eye Talisman just changes slightly according to each person's soul power, so it's not difficult to modify it."
Looking at the ruthless old man, Wu Gen couldn't help but curse after hearing this. After using this method, he didn't know if the Gu family's Talisman master could survive.
"Not bad." Ji Ye finally had a smile on his face, "Ji Xie can slightly adjust these helmets, so that our people can come and go freely in the fog after wearing them. How about this time? We will use these Gu family’s armors to make a sneak attack to break the barrier, thinking it will be more convenient."
Speaking of this, Ji Ye suddenly remembered something, "Wu Gen, this helmet needs to be activated by spiritual energy. You can't practice it, so what should you do? I'll go with Ji Zhenfu. You might as well stay in the middle army and dispatch How are things going in the military?"
Hearing Ji Ye's words, Ji Jing's face changed slightly. Ji Ye wanted to hand over the military power of the Northern and Southern armies to Wu Gen. Is this appropriate?
"Hit someone without slapping someone in the face, expose someone without exposing their shortcomings, Young Master Ji, that's too much. I just can't practice Qi. With Zhishui Jing here, I can still charge into battle." Wu Gen retorted angrily, but in his heart Secretly alarmed, Ji Ye's move was really inappropriate. The young master was qualified to lead the Northern and Southern armies. He was an outsider and carried out such an arrogant act. If he really took it rashly, he would not be beaten by many people after the war. Hate impeachment.
Ji Ye, after reading so many books on the human race, I still haven’t mastered the way of the emperor.
"That's good. In order to prevent the enemy from finding out, we won't use the Zhishui mirror for this sneak attack. You will be behind Ji Rui and he will lead the way. How about waiting for the fog to come out and then put it down to engage the enemy." Ji Ye thought. Liao Xiang suggested.
Wu Gen's mouth twitched as he was being carried into a fight. Ji Ye could really imagine this, but this was indeed a good idea. But is Ji Rui reliable? He won't attack him in the mist.
Seeing Wu Gen's little thoughts, Ji Ye smiled slightly and said, "Ji Rui is loyal to the Ji family. Don't worry, he will protect you."
The sky is getting darker, and the coalition's offensive is gradually slowing down. After all, killing is also a very tiring task. However, they did not withdraw to the main camp, but gathered one after another in Zhuolu Ridge, preparing to attack the Southern Army camp again the next day.
The Confederate army had limited resources. After retreating to the camp, they did not dare to take the lead. They did not dare to fight back. Therefore, these coalition forces talked, laughed and ate on the spot without worrying about being attacked.
As for the Northern Army, the Allied forces also gathered some troops, but they stopped moving after overcoming a few traps. It seemed that the opponent's intention was to stabilize the north and attack the south, and the focus of the attack was still the Southern Army.
In the Ebony Mountain camp, Ji Ye and the other ten people had changed into the Gu family's armor, and even Wu Gen, who couldn't practice Qi, also changed into a suit. .net
Ji Rui walked up to Wu Gen, turned his back and leaned down slightly. Wu Gen looked at the strange looks from everyone around him, gritted his teeth and jumped on Ji Rui's back.
Ji Rui was tall, and Wu Gen looked like a half-grown child when he stood on top of him, and he didn't seem heavy at all.
It felt bad to be carried by a man, so bad that Wu Gen instantly got goosebumps all over his body. He supported the cylinder with the snake sculpture behind him to relieve his embarrassment.
On this sneak attack, if you encounter any high-level people, you can have a way to defend yourself with the snake eagle. Due to his identity, Shen Lang absolutely cannot appear in front of these people.
Zhuo Ke and Luo Zhang followed Ji Rui quietly. Once out of the range of Zhishui Jing, Wu Gen became blind and was at the mercy of others. The two of them were naturally a little worried.
"Let's go." Ji Ye took the lead and rushed out of the camp today, holding a long sword.
As soon as he entered the mist, everything in front of him suddenly became dark, and even the sound became much quieter. Wu Gen's body suddenly tensed up. This was a human instinctive reaction. Faced with a situation beyond his control, he would naturally feel nervous unconsciously.
Beneath him, Ji Rui's body rose and fell rhythmically, walking on the rugged mountain road as if he were walking on flat ground. Looking at the darkness in the distance, Wu Gen thought of Guixi, Fuming Pass, and the ups and downs along the way for no reason.
After traveling through so many weird places, Wu Gen quickly adapted to this blind environment. It was rare for him to have free time to think about the past and the girl far away in Zhao country.
I don't know how much time passed, and while I was sighing with emotion, Ji Rui suddenly stopped under me. The fog in front of me seemed to have faded a lot, and starlight squeezed into the fog stubbornly.
