C42 Only for the one who is dead (1)

The explosion lasted for a long time before it stopped. After everything calmed down, the entire Dragon Canyon instantly fell into a deathly silence. The sound of the wind had stopped, and the birdsong and insect flute in the middle of summer had lost all of its former elegance.

Broken limbs were scattered everywhere on the flat bottom of the cliff. The original earthen yellow colour had turned into an abnormal blood-red. Sabers, swords, spears, and other weapons filled the battlefield. They either scattered and collapsed, or stabbed diagonally into the ground. The blood-stained armor, charred corpses, and the lingering flames scattered across the battlefield formed a terrible picture scroll that was like hell.

"Caw ?" Caw ? "Ugh ?"

After an unknown amount of time, the cry of a crow came from an unknown place, breaking the silence of the Dragon Canyon!

"Ahhh ?" A groan came out of nowhere, but it quickly disappeared. Following that, the Dragon Canyon returned to a state of deathly silence.

Several hours ago.

Situ Qingyun brought three thousand soldiers and abandoned horses to climb the mountain, hiding in the forest. Not long after they had hidden themselves, a large squadron of cavalry, consisting of a hundred thousand men, had arrived at the fork of the mountain. After a short while, they did not search the top of the mountain, but sent their troops to the Dragon Canyon.

"General, what should we do next?" A black-faced burly man used that mirror to scare himself. He took out that ugly face that frightened others and extended it over.

"There's no hurry. Let the brothers rest first and wait for their main forces to move a bit further away."

"Then the young general ?"

"Don't worry, that kid will be fine in a short period of time." How smart he is, he becomes a monkey spirit when he's got hair on his head. "

"That's true, young generals never play cards according to common sense. His thoughts on tactics are definitely unrestrained and unfathomable. Those who know him know that he has reason, and those who do not know that he is a madman. "

"I say, his third uncle is still here. Are you praising him or slandering him?" Situ Qingyun was a little unhappy, but what he heard did not sound like good news at all.

"A slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue, rest, sleep! "Hehe!" The black faced man grinned and quickly left Situ Qingyun's attack range.

"Old Li, send out more scouts to keep an eye on the foot of the mountain. Notify them immediately if anything happens!"

"Don't worry!" They were sent a long time ago! " The dark face responded.

"Hey, I wonder how is Little San?" Please don't let anything happen to him! That was a hundred thousand cavalrymen! Xiao San, hold on! Third Uncle will definitely save you! " Situ Qingyun lied on the grass as he looked up at the sky and swore to himself.

had never felt that waiting was a type of hardship. Even when he was once in a battle between millions of troops for several days and nights, he had never felt that it was so long and so torturous. But at this moment, he actually felt a sense of unease, a very bad feeling, and this feeling was growing stronger and stronger. Or was he overly worried?

Even someone as powerful as Helian Rong had fallen into the hands of that brat, as well as the famous Profound Nether Army's Divine Xianyu Hetu, they had all suffered huge losses. The main culprit for this battle was still that brat, who was a nephew of Helian Rong, who sometimes had the ability to turn corruption into miracles.

"I hope that we can also create a miracle this time!" Situ Qingyun began to silently pray.

"General, the scouts have reported that the cavalry is resting at the foot of the mountain, and there is no movement from the direction of the Dragon Canyon. Maybe the enemy army has penetrated deep into the Dragon Canyon. "

"This matter should not be delayed. Notify them and we will set out immediately. The frontline must be well hidden. We must first annihilate the three thousand men below the mountain. We cannot let a single one escape!"

"Yes."

Very quickly, Situ Qingyun led the three thousand warriors to gradually approach the foot of the mountain. Their speed wasn't fast, just in case the enemy discovered them. As the frontline forward gradually entered his attack range, Situ Qingyun gave the order to attack.

These soldiers were all veterans who had come out of the battlefield. They had a lot of experience on the battlefield, and their killing efficiency was also unusually high.

3000 battles, 3000 people against 3000 people. Under the condition that the number of people was equal, the existence of any advantage was a key factor that would determine the direction of the battlefield. One side was a veteran of the battlefield, while the other side was a rookie who had not fought for a long time.

"Kill ?" The enemy troops, who had not managed to mount their horses in time, panicked, and shouted for battle. Such a strong momentum was very frightening, but compared to the number of people who had fallen, the disparity was too great.

"Be quick. After you finish off the enemies around you, go and help the others. Finish the battle quickly and then take away their horses." Situ Qingyun casually pulled the horses by his side, with a stomp of his left foot, he jumped on his horse and shouted to the soldiers who had finished their fight.

Group brawls were indeed one of the most important rules of the battlefield. Duels were indeed one of the most unwise choices in the battlefield. This group of rookies had no experience to begin with, so they were in a hurry to fight. One man against a large group of people, while the number of people dueling each other increased. How could these rookies be able to handle this?

In less than an hour, the battle had ended. Not a single enemy had escaped, and Situ Qingyun did not have the time to let the warriors sweep the battlefield.

Dragon Canyon was not too far away from the camp to begin with, so after spending more than six hours, they arrived at the camp.

"Men, order, except for the civilians, all the men in the battalion shall be armed and immediately assemble. Also, immediately send an order to the direction of Longmen City, order us to immediately send troops there, other than the regular garrison troops, send me as much as you can, order us to send this order to other cities and towns in the other prefectures, immediately after receiving the order, send our troops to the Dragon Canyon. "

"At the time of this order, all the troops immediately rushed towards the direction of Dragon Canyon. Anyone that neglected it would be cut down. Anyone who fought passively would be killed. Anyone who isn't careful in battle will be cut down. "

Every time Situ Qingyun said the word "cut", his killing intent became thicker. When he finished saying the word "cut", he could feel that the temperature around Situ Qingyun instantly dropped by a few degrees. Not only that, if his killing intent could turn into blades, the soldiers standing straight up against him would definitely be riddled with holes.

"Third master, what happened? Where's the young master? Where did the young master go? Did he not come back with you?" The little girl saw the chaos outside and ran out to find Situ Qingyun. Seeing that Gongsun Ze Tian was not following beside the Great General Situ, she asked anxiously.

"Xiao San ?" Situ Qingyun didn't know how to continue, but he didn't know how Xiao San was doing either. He just hoped that nothing bad would happen to him.

"Did something happen to young master?" Woo woo ? * "Young Master..." The little girl saw that Situ Qingyun was stuttering and not saying a word, and started to panic in her heart. Her tears moistened her eyes, and started to become more and more intense, and not long later, she started to cry until she was no longer human.

"Don't cry, Little San doesn't like girls to cry. "Follow me, we'll go get him!" Situ Qingyun said with a serious face.

"Is the gathering complete?" Situ Qingyun asked his aide-de-camp.

"Reporting to the general, there are a total of thirty-eight thousand men remaining in the northern army. All of them have been assembled, not a single one missing."

Situ Qingyun looked around with a stern expression, his tiger eyes were filled with anger, and wherever he looked, all the soldiers stuck out their chests and raised their heads, filled with fighting spirit. A great general who had experienced much in the battlefield was truly extraordinary. He didn't need to say anything; just his imposing manner alone could infinitely enhance the fighting spirit and imposing manner of a soldier.

"Get on the horse, let's go!" He didn't want to spend time on some kind of lecture. Saving a life was like putting out a fire.

At this time, Situ Qingyun really wanted to save others, but he had forgotten that once he gave this order, it would indirectly cause the entire Northern Army and the garrison under his command to enter a state of special preparation, and at the same time cause huge chaos in the north. If he were to give Situ Qingyun the chance to choose again, he would not hesitate to continue with this decision.

However, the starting line would be densely packed with all over the map. Even though the marching routes were just lines of silk, but after connecting the numerous starting points and the only ending point, the threads would be enough to form a single side. With points forming a line, the lines would converge together to form a single side.

If you could take a bird's eye view of the entire Northern Continent from above, maybe you would discover that the people rushing towards the Dragon Canyon were probably a few hundred thousand in number. There were all kinds of troops, infantry, cavalry, archers, and so on. However, the only thing these different warriors had in common was that they were running with all their might towards Dragon Canyon without any signs of stopping.

They only received their only death order as they rushed to Dragon Canyon with all their might to rescue General Gongsun Zaitian. Who was Gongsun Ztian? There was probably no one in Northern Army who did not know him. He was the strong man who solved the most trouble in Xuanming and fought off the Profound Nether Army's god of war. He was a miracle general who ended this battle and allowed his soldiers to return home with their lives.

Situ Qingyun also never thought that in this battle, his nephew would actually reach the same height as him. The reason why all the warriors beside him were rushing to Dragon Canyon with their lives on the line, was not because of his status as the Great General Situ nor the death order they were given.

A few hours passed, and when the army moved forward along the Dragon Canyon, they passed by the Discarded Bamboo Forest, and looked at the countless casualties of the enemy troops, but did not find a single corpse of their own side, causing everyone's hearts to tremble. At the same time, they couldn't help but admire and admire the man who had the ability to kill so many enemies without losing a single person.

When they arrived at the edge of the sky, they saw blood splattering all over the ground, yet not even a corpse could be found. The soldiers were puzzled, but some smart people thought that the corpses that they did not see were probably lying at the bottom of the cliff.

Stepping onto the 'floating bridge of corpses' left behind by the enemy army, they passed through the White Mud Beach, and carefully approached the Dragon Canyon.

But when Situ Qingyun led the group to Dragon Canyon, everyone there, including Situ Qingyun, were completely stunned by the scene before them. Its appearance was terrifying, but it was also extremely cautious. Is this the Underworld? This was what many people were thinking at the same time.

"Young Master, Young Master, where are you?" The little girl cried, her voice hoarse, but the entire Dragon Canyon was silent, the little girl was a little flustered, she did not believe that her clever young master would die, but why wasn't there a response from the young master?

She staggered into the hell-like battlefield, constantly flipping over the corpses on the ground to confirm if they were her young master, but there were too many bodies on the ground, most of them were broken limbs, she could not find them no matter how hard she tried. The little girl was at a loss, she was still a little worried, why was she not able to find her young master, was he still alive? How she wished that her young master was purposely teasing her and would suddenly jump out from behind to scare her, just like he did many times before.

The little girl was still crazily searching for it. Situ Qingyun, however, was overflowing with tears. If you approach this decisive general, you would hear his voice constantly repeating itself: "Second Brother, Second Sister-in-Law, Third Brother did not take good care of Little San. The one who died should be me.

whoosh *

All the warriors present dismounted, and their movements were uniform, as if they had been rehearsed countless times. All of them knelt down in unison.

It was unknown who started sobbing, but it soon spread to the entire army. A man does not shed tears easily, but only because he is not sorrowful.

"Confining the soldiers' remains, they are my, Situ Qingyun's, soldiers, and soldiers that are worthy of respect and admiration. I want to bring my brothers home, I don't want their corpses to be exposed in the wilderness, their families ?" Situ Qingyun felt his throat tighten as he was unable to finish his words.
