Yu ChaoWei had just used his movement technique and was in the midst of speeding up. Furthermore, the moment he used his movement technique, he would only pay attention to what was behind him. How would he pay attention to what was in front of him?
These two people were hidden in the snow. Their entire bodies were white and blended in with the snow. Even their hair and eyebrows were white. If one did not look carefully, even if they were standing right in front of him, one would not be able to notice them.
Not only were these two people's martial arts extraordinary, the timing of their assassination was also extremely good!
Yu ChaoWei only felt that a huge piece of snow was smashing towards him. Pale with fright, he paused and retreated at full speed. But at the moment when he was about to change from moving forward to retreating, he felt a chill on both sides of his ribs. Two long swords, like two poisonous snakes, had already drilled into his heart at the same time! Two thick and fierce internal energy exploded in his body, and his heart instantly exploded into pieces in his chest.
Yu ChaoWei did not even have the time to let out a cry of anger before he stopped breathing.
Tamago's former army commander, Yu ChaoWei, dead!
The two white robed men pulled out their swords with a 'shua' sound. The moment the swords were pulled out, their wrists seemed to shake a little. Then, the two bright swords were pulled out. There were two bloody holes, but not a single drop of blood was spilled.
Flying in the snow, Yu ChaoWei's body was buried under the snow in the blink of an eye, as if he had evaporated from the world. Even though Tamago's army commander had lost his life in their hands, they did not have the slightest bit of excitement. It was as if they had just killed the most ordinary soldier!
The two white robed men looked at each other and suddenly pursed their lips and let out a 'gu gu gu' sound, as if a hungry bird was looking for food. Following their sound, countless white figures suddenly started to move. They silently came out from the two tents in the East and South, moving towards the other tents in an orderly manner.
These two white robed men were Ling Feng and Ling Yun. Although Yu ChaoWei's martial arts were not bad and had reached the Xiantian level, compared to Ling Feng and Ling Yun, he was far inferior! Now that the two assassins had ambushed him at the same time and caught him off guard, Yu ChaoWei would naturally die very quickly. It would be strange if he did not die.
This was only the beginning …
The several tents on both sides were still filled with deafening noise. All around, in the barracks that were a little closer, the soldiers were either impatient, itchy, or dejected after losing all their money. They were lying on their beds, covering their heads or plugging their ears with something to force themselves to sleep. There were even a few who were cursing under their breath.
These soldiers were also one of the reasons why Ling Feng and the others were able to move so smoothly. In such weather, the soldiers who were further away from the tents had already fallen asleep. Those who were closer to the tents had already covered their ears. These people were too noisy! In addition, the South and East sides had the fewest people to begin with. Why? This was because the east and south sides were facing the Divine Prefecture Empire.
No one would have thought that there would be a sneak attack at such a delicate moment!
This was the biggest reason why Ling Feng and the others could succeed!
Naturally, the troublemaking of a bunch of silkpants was also an important factor.
In fact, with three thousand elites moving together, with twenty battle-hardened warriors and two super murderous gods in the middle, it would be strange if they didn't succeed in dealing with these unprepared ordinary soldiers who had extremely low willpower in battle. Only Yu ChaoWei's guards had some skills and were able to put in some effort. However, with Ling Feng and Ling Yun's ghostly speed, they only needed to put in a little more effort.
Ling Feng and the others' sneak attack this time was unimaginably smooth. This group of brats even suspected that this was a trap set by the enemy. Because it was too smooth, so smooth that it was unbelievable!
General Feng Mo waved his hand and the soldiers behind him followed silently. Two of them held their blades and guarded the front door of a tent. Then, they split into groups of twenty and entered from the front, back, left and right. These people were all very familiar with how to distribute the beds in these kinds of tents. After entering, they would cover the mouth of an enemy soldier with one hand, while the other hand would mercilessly slash down. "Pu pu pu", "pu pu pu" sounds continuously rang out. Occasionally, there would be a few muffled groans and extremely suppressed screams. After a short while, the twenty over people retreated in an orderly manner. They signaled each other that they had succeeded and moved on to the next tent.
These three thousand people quietly spread out and carried out their mission. One by one, fresh lives were mercilessly reaped. As they went deeper into the tents, a few hundred people split up and headed towards the stables and warehouses. After all, these were the most important places, regardless of whether they were facing the enemy or themselves.
Under Feng Mo's command, they purposely avoided the noisy tents. Because Feng Mo had discovered that the loud shouts of these people were the best cover for their actions! To be able to cover the ears of others … just this point alone was enough to merit them! Thus, he decided to let them earn more merits and let them live till the end as a reward …
Besides, how much battle strength could a bunch of gamblers have? But if they were to act rashly and alert the enemy, that would not be good. The gains would not make up for the losses!
Feng Mo did not forget that there were a total of thirty thousand soldiers in this camp! That was ten times the number of soldiers under Feng Mo's command, a whole ten times! Before coming here, he definitely would not have thought that things would turn out like this. Even more so, he would not have thought that things would go so smoothly. But if he were to act rashly and alert the enemy, it would cause a mutiny, and his troops would have to pay a huge price. There would be the danger of being completely wiped out. After all, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great!
It would be best if he could kill all of them in his sleep, Feng Mo thought to himself.
Ling Feng and Ling Yun drifted along with the snowflakes in the air. All the sentries along the way were taken care of by the two of them. The three thousand burly men behind them followed their footsteps silently. They were like a group of murderous ghosts, expressionless and merciless as they slaughtered.
The enemy was outnumbered, if they could kill them all, they would kill them all without mercy! There would be accidents at every turn! Showing mercy to the enemy was the same as killing one's own brothers! This was Feng Mo's mobilization before the battle.
In the southeast direction, a group of soldiers wearing sheepskin coats were rushing towards this direction under the heavy snow. These were the twelve thousand soldiers that Feng Mo had left behind in advance!
Feng Mo's wish was destined not to come true. After all, killing one or two, or even a hundred or eighty enemies might not cause a commotion. But this was a camp of thirty thousand soldiers …
"Ah! The enemy is attacking the camp …" Following a tragic cry, the silent killing finally came to an end. The dead silence of the camp finally broke out in a commotion.
"What's that sound?"
"There's an enemy sneak attack …"
"Ah!"
The soldiers under Feng Mo's command made a prompt decision. They no longer stealthily crept forward. Like a whirlwind, they charged into the tents and killed the enemy soldiers who had just woken up from their sleep. But because of this, more screams could be heard, and the camp was thrown into chaos!
Many people ran out of their tents in their cotton-padded clothes. They looked around and found that they were surrounded by densely packed enemy soldiers. They had no idea how many enemies there were. They immediately screamed in horror, which startled even more people …
When the commotion started, Feng Mo expressionlessly pointed at the few tents that were still noisy. Instantly, dozens of large swords with blood stains on them hacked into the tents. Instantly, screams could be heard …
"Kill!" Feng Mo raised his arms and shouted, "This camp has already been taken over by our army. Kill all of them! Don't leave a single one alive! "His thunderous roar shook the surrounding snow to the ground!
"The Divine Prefecture Empire is invincible!" The three thousand men shouted in unison, their aura majestic.
The Yu Family soldiers who were already in a state of chaos rushed out like headless flies, only to realize that there was no one to command their troops. The originally calm Marshal and Deputy Generals were nowhere to be seen and they only knew that they were surrounded by enemies. Without a leader, they no longer had the heart to resist and only knew how to escape in all directions. However, they were greeted by the shining blades of the Yu Family soldiers …
Occasionally, there would be some who were more quick-witted. The moment they got out of their tents, they would rush towards the stables in an attempt to snatch their horses and escape. But when they finally reached the stables, they were greeted with swords after swords!
The border defense camp of the Yu Family was in an uproar. All around them were soldiers fighting for their own lives and the majority of them were fleeing for their lives. In truth, the number of soldiers of the Yu Family far exceeded the 3000 soldiers of Feng Mo. However, it was a pity that they were in a complete mess and did not have any form of combat prowess. Compared to the Divine Prefecture Empire's troops who had a tacit understanding of each other, the Yu Family soldiers were like a motley crew. How could they fight against a fierce tiger?
Originally, the Yu Family's border defense troops were naturally the elites of the elites and could be said to be well-trained elites. But the moment they were ambushed and had no one to command them, the morale of the troops would drop. An army without a commander was no different from a pack of wild boars without a leader. It was already considered good that they did not trample on each other and kill each other. How would they be able to defend against the enemy? So what if they had the advantage in numbers? There were enemies everywhere. Survival was the most important thing!
From the South-East, a series of dull and orderly footsteps could be heard. Following that, a group of snow-white soldiers suddenly emerged from the snow, like an evil dragon emerging from the darkness.
"Reinforcements have arrived! Kill them all! " Feng Mo swung his sword and killed a Tamago soldier in front of him who was running for his life. He roared: "Those who surrender will be spared! Throw down your weapons, put your hands behind your head and kneel! "
"Those who surrender will be spared! Throw down your weapons, put your hands behind your head and kneel! "The soldiers of the Divine Prefecture Empire roared.
Ling Feng and Ling Yun quickly used their movement techniques and swept across the battlefield like the wind. Along the way, they left a trail of corpses as they shouted: "Those who surrender will be spared!"
At this time, Yu ChaoWei's corpse, which they had hidden earlier, came in handy at this crucial moment. Feng Mo ordered his men to hang him up high on the flagpole. The stiff corpse of their Marshal destroyed the last bit of courage in the hearts of the Tamago soldiers. In their despair, they threw down their swords and weapons, put their hands behind their heads and knelt on the ground. Even their Marshal was dead, what was the point of fighting for their lives?
Feng Mo no longer cared about those who had surrendered. He only cared about leading his troops and launching a final assault on the remaining enemies like a tsunami!
This was because he had to ensure that the supplies in this camp were intact. This was something that his 15,000 brothers would rely on to survive for a period of time. If it was destroyed by the remaining enemies in a moment of desperation, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Following the shouts of 'those who surrender will be spared!', a large number of soldiers knelt on the ground. All those who resisted were mercilessly slaughtered. Only a small number of less than a thousand people at the northwest border were lucky enough to escape with their war horses. The Divine Prefecture Empire had fifteen thousand people against thirty thousand people, and they had achieved a complete victory! In this battle, less than a hundred people died, and more than 300 suffered light injuries. The results of this battle could be said to be extremely glorious.
Strictly speaking, the 12,000 men that came after didn't achieve much. Just the surprise attack of the 3,000 men at the front had already killed the enemy until they were listless, weak, and kneeling! 3,000 against 30,000, a complete victory! Who would believe it if they said it out!?
Feng Mo, who had taken over the nest of a magpie, occupied Yu ChaoWei's tent, gulping down the enemy's wine and eating the enemy's food. He suddenly felt that life was infinitely beautiful.
After taking over the camp, Feng Mo immediately ordered for the corpses to be buried. After a short rest, the troops directly moved into Tamago's camp.
This large group of people who had been starving and freezing in the mountains for sightseeing had finally come to an end. The days of suffering seemed to have ended, and everyone was smiling happily. Only Feng Mo, Ling Feng, and Ling Yun knew that this was just the beginning. There were even greater dangers and storms to come!
"The camp has been taken over. The rations, fodder, water, and medicine have also been temporarily replenished. But what should we do next? Everyone, tell me. " Feng Mo's face was solemn as he looked at the dozen people around him and said: "Everyone knows our situation. It's extremely awkward. We've just ambushed Tamago's border camp and obtained a complete victory. Naturally, we've done a great service, but with the enemy, we've formed a death grudge. I believe that in the near future, Tamago will definitely retaliate with all their might. Right now, we're in the enemy's territory. Based on the current situation, without half a month's time, we definitely won't be able to return! If we choose to go deeper, we'll definitely face Tamago's encirclement. On the other hand, if we stay here and wait for the snow to melt, Tamago's counterattack during this period of time, with our current strength, we definitely won't be able to withstand it! The result will be complete annihilation. "
"What's there to be afraid of? We'll deal with whatever comes our way. If they come, we'll beat them to a pulp!" One of the Blood Iron Warriors had eaten his fill, and with the leftover momentum from the great victory, he was bursting with confidence. Hearing this, he said without hesitation.
"Idiot! We have 15,000 brothers here. If Tamago comes, of course we won't be afraid! But if they come with even more soldiers, how are we going to deal with 100,000 of them? If they come wave after wave, we won't be able to retreat, and we won't have any reinforcements. How are we going to defend? Are we going to throw all our brothers' lives away here? "Feng Mo said angrily.
"Since a thousand people escaped last time, then our situation here is bound to be exposed. Tamago will definitely come for revenge." Ling Feng said coldly: "This time, we've accidentally killed the next generation of Tamago's leaders. They definitely won't let this go. In front of us, there's only one path, and that is to fight to the death. What else is there to say? "
"How could I not know this? But, there must be a way to fight to the death! Do we bide our time and wait for them to attack? … Or do we take the initiative? "
"Although it's risky, it's better to take the initiative! Kill them until they turn the world upside down! " Ling Yun said slowly: "We can't retreat, and we don't have any reinforcements. The only thing we can do now is to fight and fight. We'll go all out into Tamago and wreak havoc. At the same time, we can split our men into smaller teams. If we're surrounded by Tamago's army, we'll split up and find our own way out. No matter what, even if we have to die here, we'll make Tamago pay the heaviest price. "
Pausing, Ling Yun looked coldly at Feng Mo and said: "Now that things have come to this, none of us can think of going back alive. Since we're going to die anyway, we might as well cut off all means of retreat and take a gamble! If we just defend, we'll definitely die. But if we take the initiative to attack, even if we have a slim chance of survival, we might still be able to escape! "
Feng Mo snorted and said: "We don't have to go back, but the two of you have to! Otherwise, how am I going to answer to Young Master and Ling Jian? " Even though Ling Tian was now the ruler of a country, Feng Mo and the rest still referred to him as' Young Master 'out of habit.
"If we wanted to go back, we could've gone back a long time ago!" Ling Feng said coldly. "Do you think this bullshit snow can stop the two of us? But, if fifteen thousand of our brothers die here, and only the two of us go back safely, do you think we'll have a clear conscience? We'll advance and retreat together with everyone! "
"But if you die, what will happen to Young Master and Ling Jian? You have to consider the big picture! "Feng Mo said angrily, refusing to back down." Do you want me, Feng Mo, to die in front of Young Master? If you really die here, do you think you'll have a clear conscience? Young Master did his best to train you for so many years just to let you lose your lives here? "
The two of them stared at each other like fighting cocks, neither of them willing to back down.
"Actually, we don't have to die. Didn't I say just now that taking the initiative to attack only has a slim chance of survival? We still have hope. Taking the initiative to attack doesn't mean we have to enter the enemy's territory!" Ling Yun said calmly as he looked at the map. "Look, we only thought about attacking the enemy's territory or defending our position. We didn't think about what would happen if we retreated into the mountains. There are thirty thousand enemies here, and the rations are naturally enough to last thirty thousand people a month, or even more. If we retreat into the mountains with these rations, it will last us at least three months! If necessary, we can even kill horses and eat their meat! As for the mountain full of snow, we can melt the snow into water at any time. Everyone, pay attention here. "Ling Yun pointed to a mountain." This mountain pass is easy to defend and hard to attack. The slope is very steep, and not far from here is where we used to set up camp. We are very familiar with the terrain, and as long as we can defend this mountain pass, we will be able to defend until spring. At the very least, we will be able to retreat from the mountains. "
With Ling Yun's reminder, Feng Mo and Ling Feng stopped arguing and surrounded the map. After a long time, the three of them looked at each other and nodded their heads.
Ling Feng punched Ling Yun's shoulder. "Good lad, you're really something. How did you think of that!"
Ling Yun's face turned red. "Young Master always said that as long as it is a trap, there will be a way to break it. Don't you remember?"
Ling Feng's face also turned red. "I remember, but I don't understand what it means!"
"Since that's the case, there's no time to lose, let's move out immediately!" Feng Mo said decisively.
"The first and third companies will stay here and collect all the supplies, especially the bows, clothes and medicine. Prepare to retreat. You must finish moving everything within two days. If you can't move it in time, burn it all on the spot. No mistakes! The second and fourth companies will escort the injured and leave first. When we reach the mountain pass, cut down all the trees and use the tree stumps to set up an ambush. This will make the enemy's cavalry useless. Quickly arrange for your own archers to guard all the vital points. At the same time, transport all the accumulated snow to the top of the mountain. Start a fire and melt the snow into water. Melt the snow into a wall to obstruct the enemy. Once all of our troops retreat, it will be time for us to be on full alert! The fifth company will go together and return to the valley to set up camp. Now that we have so many supplies, we shouldn't have any problems in the short term! "
All the generals stood up and obeyed the order. They split up and left.
Feng Mo and Ling Feng walked out of the tent and looked at the snow that was still falling from the sky. The snow on the ground had already reached their knees. They couldn't help but smile at each other. Ling Yun said, "Even though the nearest army from Tamago is 50 miles away, they don't have a lot of people. They don't even have 20,000 people. With just their numbers, once they know that we defeated 30,000 of Tamago's elites in one fell swoop, and with the snow blocking the road, they won't dare to come over! Even if they do come over, they will only be sending themselves to their deaths! However, it will take at least two days for Tamago's army to receive the news and arrive here. In this period of time, we can easily retreat. "
Feng Mo smiled, but his face turned serious. "That makes sense. Your brain is really good. This battle will definitely be a tough one. Everyone must be prepared. Don't be careless."
Ling Feng and Ling Yun smiled at each other. They could feel the sharp killing intent and battle intent from each other. The two of them had killed countless people and were used to seeing life and death. Facing this situation, they didn't care at all!
The black sparrow hawk flew out from Feng Mo's hands and circled around in the sky. With a clear cry, it disappeared into the vast expanse of snow.
At this moment, Bright Jade City was in complete chaos!
More than half of the descendants of Tamago's leaders had been killed. This shocking news shook Bright Jade City.
No one would have thought that at this time of the year, when the snow had sealed off the mountains, when it was supposed to be the most peaceful time in history, they would actually suffer such a huge blow! The leaders of Tamago who were still scheming received such a huge blow to their heads! All of them were enraged and furious!
Back then, it was their brilliant idea to send their children and nephews to the border. Now that such a thing had happened, wouldn't it mean that they, the elders, had personally sent their children and grandchildren to the mouth of the Grim Reaper? They were already old, and they were the ones who started this. They reaped what they sowed. How could they endure this?
There were a few old men with white hair who fainted on the spot after hearing this news!
The elders of Tamago were all in an uproar. They all wanted to lead the troops and wipe out this bunch of audacious Divine Prefecture Empire soldiers. Yu ManLou issued an order in the middle of the night, ordering the army to surround the Divine Prefecture Empire's troops and not let a single one of them return to Sky Bearing!
At the same time, he ordered all the troops in Tamago to suppress the Divine Prefecture Empire, especially the Swallow Region. They must not allow the Divine Prefecture Empire to return to Sky Bearing.
Tamago had lost more than ten elders of the previous generation in Tamago. They all requested to go to war, and their enthusiasm could be said to be unprecedented. Yu ManLou agreed to all of their requests. As such, more than a hundred experts rushed to the borders …
At the same time.
Imperial Palace of the Divine Prefecture Empire.
Emperor Ling Tian, who was admiring the snow in front of the window, frowned as he read the urgent message sent by Ling Jian. He did not hesitate at all and immediately gave out his orders.
In less than an hour, the Divine Sword Duke of the Divine Prefecture Empire, the previous Head of the First Pavilion, the number one assassin under the heavens, Ling Jian, rode on a black horse with a baleful aura around him. He led thirty cavalrymen and charged through the snowstorm, disappearing from the northern gate.
Following which, three grey eagles took to the skies, carrying Ling Tian's latest orders. They flew towards the Swallow Region where the million strong army of the Divine Prefecture Empire was located.
The 15,000 men led by Feng Mo were almost all from the Ling House's Courtyard. There were also Ling Feng, Ling Yun, and 20 Blood Iron Warriors. Ling Tian could not afford to lose them. Such a loss was something that Ling Tian could not bear!
When he saw the news of a large number of Tamago's descendants being killed, Ling Tian instinctively felt a huge sense of danger! How could the Tamago Empire's descendants not be enraged? What kind of decision would they make in their rage? Ling Tian could completely guess what Ling Tian was thinking. If Ling Feng, Ling Yun, and the others were to meet with an accident, what would his attitude be like?!
Thus, Ling Tian did not hesitate to order Ling Jian to lead 30 brothers to reinforce them.
This was going to be a huge battle filled with top-notch experts!
It was going to be unprecedented!
It was the prelude to the official war between the two empires! Although it was a little early.
In addition, Ling Tian gave even stricter orders. No matter what happened in the war in the north, they had to report it immediately! Be it day or night, there must be no delay!
The dark clouds of war had completely shrouded the world!
Although it was not in line with the plan, Ling Tian was not afraid at all! If it weren't for this dragon robe, Ling Tian would have even planned to personally lead the expedition …
