C4 Wooded chase(part ii)

The black-robed general, Hu Xiong, had indeed split his troops into three paths and chased after him. None of the scout s sent out reported any valuable information afterwards. Hu Xiong personally led two, and directly chased after them towards the east.

"Report!"

The scout who did not have any news finally found some clues at this moment.

"Did you discover Wei Gou up ahead?" Hu Xiong asked anxiously.

"Reporting to Great General, we did not discover Wei Gou, but following the traces they left behind, we discovered three sets of armor. scout length guessed that they must have realized that we were following them, so they also got into their formations quickly and brought Wei Gou to flee towards the east. " The scout that came to report spoke clearly.

"Are there any silver robes inside?" Hu Xiong asked.

"No!" scout was straightforward.

Hu Xiong's eyeballs turned, and his mind gradually came to a decision.

"Quickly go back and tell scout length to dispatch two groups of people and scout towards the southwest and northwest. Leave a small portion of them to continue heading east. Tell him to carry out his orders, because we seem to have fallen into their trap. " Hu Xiong said confidently.

"But ?" scout asked doubtfully.

"But what? Apparently, they left their armor behind for you to see, so that you would think they were fleeing in the east. Otherwise, do you think they would throw away their life saving armor? Moreover, Zhu Hongyang's battle robes were not among the three sets of armor. Zhu Hongyang's skills are so great that even this general has to be wary of her. He would definitely protect Wei Gou by his side, which meant that Zhu Hongyang was not among the people fleeing in the east. What are you talking about? "Hurry up and do it, if you lose this general's pursuit, none of you can afford it."

Hu Xiong proudly explained the analysis in his heart. As a general, the reason he said such words to everyone was to increase his prestige in the Soldiers's heart.

"Yes sir!" scout hurriedly replied as he turned around and left.

"Great General is sharp, I admires it." The vanguard infantrymen beside Hu Xiong flattered Hu Xiong right on time.

"Humph!" How could such a small trick be able to fool this general? We need to return to the place where we separated and wait for news from the scout. Right now, we don't know if they're heading north or south, so we have to wait. In any case, there are at least six to seven hundred troops in each of these two directions. No matter how outstanding their martial arts are, they can't possibly be a match for so many soldiers of mine. " Hu Xiong's face was filled with arrogance, but at the moment, he did not doubt his own judgement in the slightest.

The General Zhong looked towards the northeast and found that there were no enemy guards in the wide area to the north. Hence, he quickly grabbed onto the time and headed towards the southeast direction, hoping to reunite with General Guo and the others. However, what he did not know was that he would encounter a large wave led by the scout length coming from the northwest toward the scout. This wave of scout s had long since walked in front of the General Zhong in the east direction. With Hu Xiong's order, the scout length would change directions and search, destined to meet with the General Zhong.

At this time, the General Chen had already been exposed to all the remaining scout s. He was already too tired to use much energy. His previous plan had indeed worked well, but at the same time he had used up all of his energy.

scout quickly reacted, and it was no longer convenient for him to attack in secret.

"Brothers, don't be afraid! That thing is definitely human. As long as it is human, we can finish it off. Fourteen against one, are you confident? " He had seen too many capable people being killed in front of a sea of humans, so he believed that the remaining fourteen scout s would definitely be able to accomplish the same.

"Yes!" Everyone answered loudly.

The leader was not a reckless person. He knew that the opponent was strong and powerful. If he sent someone to lead the army away by themselves, they would lose their lives before they could get far. This actually caused their overall strength to drop one by one.

Seeing this situation, the General Chen decided to fly to the top of the big tree and wait patiently, wasting time with the enemy. This way, he could let Wei Yutian and the others escape even further. Before the General Guo even reunited with them, they had already sped up their escape, because this meant that the General Chen had met with danger.

"Damn, my field of vision isn't wide enough. I can't even tell which tree that bastard is flying on." I have to quickly find firewood on the spot and see if there are any that can be ignited. I do not believe that if I were to open up my vision a little more, I would be able to find that fellow. " The leader said angrily.

The fear from before was no longer there. The calm scout s quickly ignited their flames. Although the firewood still had some moisture on its surface, its interior was still dry.

"Look, there, pick up some rocks and throw them at me. No matter how strong he is, he won't be able to dodge the Qing Gong. " Although the method of leading a team leader was a bit stupid, it was very useful.

General Chen did not have enough stamina. If he continued to run far away, he was afraid that he would lose all of his strength before long. Now that these people were throwing rocks, dodging everywhere would probably consume a lot of energy. Therefore, General Chen made a prompt decision. He decided to fight to the death with these people, even if he himself died, he would drag these few along with him.

"Ya ya ya ?"

General Chen flew down from the tree, his mouth roaring majestically, raising his last bit of morale. In his hands was the halberd that had accompanied him for more than twenty years. This halberd had witnessed his brilliant battle achievements, allowing him to go from an ordinary soldier to one of the top ten commanders of the Imperial guards step by step. If one were to say who General Chen's closest comrade was, it would definitely be this halberd in his hands. Now that he had gone to his death, the only person who could accompany him was the halberd.

"Kill!" The leader of the group also roared.

All the scout s quickly surrounded the General Chen, making it impossible for him to escape.

Just at that moment, before the could wave his sword, he moved the halberd in his hands and thrusted it forward. Behind him were a few scout s. At this time, they also brandished their blades and slashed towards General Chen.

General Chen finished his stab with his halberd, and immediately turned around with a sweep of his halberd. Fortunately, his speed was fast enough, he turned around and just happened to block the huge blade. He then pushed hard, and the few scout s that were coming at him were pushed to the ground.

The other scout s reacted quickly and slashed towards General Chen's body. General Chen knew that if he did not make good use of the opportunity and was unable to kill the people in front of him who were pushed down, he would be hacked to death by the enemies behind him. That was why he immediately squatted down and waved the halberd, then turned around, hoping to beat the enemies behind him to the ground. Only then would he have the chance to kill one or two scout s.

If it was in normal times, General Chen would definitely knock everyone who was surrounding him down to the ground. But now, after the halberd had defeated a few people, it could not move at all. The blades that were slashed by the fallen scout did not hit General Chen's body, but the enemies that had not been slashed down yet all slashed onto his back. Even though he was physically strong and muscular, he was still hacked into meat.

General Chen did not care about the wound on his back, he immediately stood up with all his might. scout did not have the time to retract the blades that were slashing at his body, they were cut off from his hands the moment he stood up. General Chen seized the opportunity and used the dagger in his other hand to kill everyone in front of him. He also killed them all at the throat area, which could be said to be extremely accurate.

The others didn't give General Chen any chance to catch his breath. Although a few of the scout s had died, they knew that if they did not quickly kill the person in front of them, their fate would be the same. Thus, there was no time for them to reminisce about their dead comrades.

The few scout s that were pushed to the side by the General Chen before had already quickly gotten up from the ground and brandished their large blades again, chopping towards the General Chen. The leader knew that he could not fight them head on, so he gestured to the few people behind General Chen to attack him. They attacked together from top to bottom, how could the General Chen withstand them?

Suddenly, a scout took the opportunity when the General Chen was not paying attention to squat down and slashed at his opponent's calf. However, General Chen acted as if nothing had happened and blocked the blade in front of him without caring about anything else. Finally, under his hard work, the General Chen killed a few more scout s. But at this moment, the wounds on his back and calves were already bleeding profusely.

After a messy battle, the leader shouted, "Put your saber away and retreat." The reason he was like this was because he wanted to adjust his strategy against the enemy. He wanted to let his opponent feel the wounds on his body and prevent them from turning red from killing him without feeling anything.

All of the scout hurriedly withdrew their blades and retreated. They did not let the halberd that General Chen had swung at them in the end get hurt in the slightest. This was also why they, these trained scout, if it were any other ordinary soldier, retracting their blade would mean death.

General Chen was already so tired that he was completely unconscious. It was his desire to live and his responsibility to buy time for General Guo and the others that had caused him to bitterly endure till now.

"Hahaha ?" "Come, come ?"

Seeing that the crowd was no longer attacking, General Chen's heart was suddenly filled with pride. It had been many years since he fought with such ease. Although he was severely injured and bleeding profusely this time around, the arrogant fighting spirit in his heart was still burning fiercely.

All of the scout s were startled by General Chen's roar and felt their bodies drop to the ground in admiration of the person who was about to die. Even if they were to die, they would still possess such a ferocious fighting spirit. If they had served General He before, they would not have such heroic spirit. In their minds, the number of generals who died in battle was at least eighty, but none of them were as tragic as this one.

But the scout knew that in this current situation, it was either you or me dying. No matter how admirable the general in front of them was, they could not use their lives in compensation. Therefore, their eyes were still filled with bloodthirsty killing intent.

General Chen shouted loudly, but his mouth still had a proud smile. He could feel the pain coming from his body, but he didn't care about the blood that was gushing out from his body.

The leader didn't continue to issue orders to attack and instead looked at the person in front of him with reverence. At the beginning of his enlistment, he had also thought of such a tragic death on the battlefield. It was the glory of being a soldier, the supreme end of a soldier. Looking at the General Chen, he seemed to see his future self.

All the scout s understood their leader's intentions, and they all put down their blades. They weren't afraid of the dying man making a move, because the blood that was covering his body was telling them that he was about to lose his life.

"Hahaha..." The armor had formed into a half-life, and the yellow sand covered the body as if it were home. Loyal and sincere like a blade, full of passion and blood soaked in battle robes. "Hahaha ?"

General Chen laughed out loud with his last bit of strength. He did not regret joining the army at such a young age, he did not regret being loyal to an empire that looked strong on the surface even though it was devoid of humanity. He even more so did not regret dying fighting on the battlefield for a crown prince that did not care about his life and death. This death would help him to be loyal, to achieve the highest honor he had ever achieved since he had joined the army.

After laughing for a while, General Chen's raised head drooped down and his breathing stopped forever. However, even in death, the corners of his mouth still held his proud smile, and even in death, he still maintained his mighty and majestic demeanor.

All of the scout remained quiet, as though they were not fighting at all. However, the moonlight was still blood-red, and the temperature of the jungle was still as cold as before.

It was unknown how much time had passed, but his majestic body still did not collapse. The leader's eyes became moist, but he still said softly, "Brothers, although this person is an enemy general, his loyalty and righteousness really make us feel grateful. We should bury him here. This is his battlefield. It was as if the world was at peace every day. Every time he came to the bright and clear world, the brothers that were willing would still come to the depths of the forest and pay homage to his tomb. It was not in vain for this loyal and unyielding soul to come to this world. It's just that I don't know how to erect this monolith for him. "

All of the scout s did not say a word, and each and every one of them remained silent.

The forest hunting was not over yet, the slaughter caused by the Blood-Thirsty Crown Prince Wei Yutian had not stopped yet. The heavens were opening their eyes, Wei Yutian's death was not worth lamenting, but if those loyal generals were to die, it would cause endless grief.
