I’m The King Chapter 442: : I can’t believe it
The setting sun is like blood, reflecting the surrounding elegant clouds red, and the wind comes from afar, gathering these red clouds together, like a sea of blood, gradually submerging the setting sun.
The last red light fell on a team of more than a thousand people marching in the valley. They were all scarred and looked so tired, they almost dragged their feet forward on the ground, The entire team, except for a few war horses, were struggling on foot, and all the armor on them had been thrown away, because the heavy armor would hinder their ability to escape.

At the time of departure, 10,000 Liaoxi soldiers set foot on the battlefield full of ambition and confidence. At the beginning of the war, it was indeed as expected. They still tenaciously pushed the front line forward step by step, and finally reached the planned target before the battle. At this time, the Central Route Army was already close to Helin.
With Zhang Shubao's temperament, he was going to advance into Helin immediately, but Huang Desheng, the right army general of Liaoxi County, and Lu Hong, the former army general, stopped him. The situation above made the two feel extremely uneasy. Both of them followed Zhang Shouyue to participate in countless wars with the Donghu people, and they were veterans who had returned from hundreds of battles. This anxiety made them intuitively feel the danger. Under the persuasion of the two, Zhang Shubao stayed in Luoxie for a few more days.
It was the waiting these days that allowed Zhang Shubao to still appear in this ditch. Behind them, a large number of Donghu cavalry appeared. These Donghu cavalry originally thought that Zhang Shubao should march towards Helin, which made their arrangement somewhat different. The connection between them and the unified command were not smooth, and there was a little hesitation. The two experienced Lu Hong and Huang Desheng brought Zhang Shubao out of the gap.
Although the siege was highlighted, the next pursuit. However, they were completely caught in the opponent's rhythm, with no supplies or reinforcements, and the more than 10,000 Liaoxi soldiers were fighting less and less. In the end, only these more than a thousand people could completely get rid of the pursuers.
The reason for choosing this road is because of the undulating mountains here, which can limit the role of the opponent's cavalry to the greatest extent and slow down the opponent's pursuit sudu, indeed, when they enter this river valley. The Donghu cavalry who have been chasing after them are getting fewer and fewer.
At the end of the valley is the Zhaohu Lake with a radius of ten thousand mu. Seeing the clear green water, the thousand or so remnants of the defeated soldiers cheered in unison, and their heavy steps suddenly became relaxed. The valley is here. It flows into Zhaohu Lake, then turns a 90-degree bend along the mountain, and turns to the distance again. the river. Going forward for a hundred miles, after gathering several tributaries on the way, it returned to the land of Liaodong. Donghu people called it the Tuotuo River. The Tuotuo River moves forward. It flows into the grassland and is called the Liao River by the Huns.
Turning over the edge of Zhaohu Lake, Bixiu Peak stands facing you, and you will enter the territory of western Liaoning. It is the area of Chima County. All the people here let out a long sigh of relief, the nightmarish Eastern Expedition. It is finally coming to an end. Compared to Pao Ze, who will never be able to return to his hometown, the survivors are both happy and sad.
Howling and cheering, everyone rushed towards Bixiu Peak not far away, climbed over this mountain, and went home.
Zhang Shubao let out a long breath, looked back at the long road of humiliation behind him, and bit his lips tightly, "It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge, Donghu people, I, Zhang Shubao, will definitely I'm back."
Lu Hong was injured, his head was wrapped in a thick cloth, but he couldn't hide the blood oozing out. He has been away from the army for many years, and his martial arts have actually regressed a lot compared to before. This time he can To escape, relying entirely on the experience of returning from many battles in the early years, he can often smell the danger in advance. But after all, he was getting old, and when he arrived here, he was already exhausted, and home was close in front of him, and he was relieved when he was carrying it all the time, lying on the horse, exhausted. In comparison, Huang Desheng was much tougher, with a few more scars on his body, his armor had long since been lost, and a long strip of cloth was tied around his waist, the blood on it had already turned purple and black. At this time, when he saw Bi Xiufeng, although he was happy, he was more anxious, and couldn't help looking back.
His son, Huang Zhan, led the remaining hundred cavalry to stop the Donghu small troops who wanted to come up to take advantage of it.
"Old Huang, don't worry, Huang Zhan followed Gao Yuan thousands of miles to raid Yulin, fled thousands of miles, and came back alive. He has experience, so most of the remaining one hundred cavalrymen are those who followed Gao Yuan to Yulin, right? "Lu Hong, Huang Desheng, who was lying on the horse, was worried about something, and comforted him weakly.
The two thousand cavalry of the Liaoxi County Army can come back alive, only the cavalry drawn from the army by Zhang Shubao and Huang Desheng. , On such a dangerous battlefield, experience has become a magic weapon for them to save themselves from danger many times.
"I hope so. Last time, they followed Gao Yuan. This time, Huang Zhan broke the rear alone. He has no experience in directing battles alone!"
"Experience is accumulated through life and death again and again. Don't worry, that kid Huang Zhan didn't die young. He will definitely be rich and powerful in the future. Before you go out, don't you still hire a fortune teller?" Have you seen him?" Lu Hong straightened up for a while, and laughed lightly.
Speaking of this, Huang Desheng couldn't help laughing, he is a veteran on the battlefield, he kills like hemp, if it was him, he would sneer at these fortune tellers, but for the sake of his son, he believed it once in a while.
Huang Desheng, who is as fierce as Yan Luo, would show such a weak state for the sake of his son, which made Lu Hong laugh at him for a long time.
Pitiful parents all over the world, Lu Hong couldn't help but think of his son Lu Chao who was far away in Qin State. How is he doing?
"Brothers, work harder, we have passed Bixiu Peak, and we are going home!" Zhang Shubao yelled loudly, cheering up the soldiers. Although he returned in a big defeat this time, it was not because of him The reason is that the entire Great Yan Kingdom has left. Compared with Zhou Yuan’s entire middle army being wrapped in dumplings, he can still bring back more than a thousand people, which is already considered remarkable. Returning to Liaoxi and recruiting again, there are thousands of soldiers. With the veterans who have experienced life and death as the skeleton, a brand new Liaoxi Army will appear again, and it will be even better than before.
With the rebirth of the Liaoxi Army from Nirvana, and the Gaoyuan Army of the Eastern Expedition. I will definitely repay the revenge this time. In battle on the battlefield, I am not afraid of losing once or ten times. As long as I win the last time, I will win.
Although looking at the situation on my side, Gao Yuan's left army is definitely in danger, but if I can fight it out, there will be no Gaoyuan left army. The main purpose of the East Hu army this time. Even if Zhou Yuan was encircled and wiped out in the middle road, if the elites from Donghu were not coming from his side, Gao Yuan would definitely not be the palace guards from Donghu. As long as it wasn't the palace guards, Gao Yuan would definitely have a chance.
The temptation to go home soon made this group of exhausted teams muster their last ounce of strength to follow the mountain road. Forge ahead.
The forest was very quiet, except for the panting of our own soldiers, it was extremely quiet, Lu Hong felt a little nervous. Feeling that something was wrong, he straightened up, opened his eyes, and looked around.
"What's the matter. The old way?"
"Victory, do you feel that something is wrong?"
"What's wrong?" Huang Desheng shook his head. "This is Bixiu Peak. After crossing the mountain, we are Chima County. Is it possible that the Donghu people can still run in front of us? If so, can we escape back here? They will clean us up on the way!"
Lu Hong took a deep breath, "I still feel something is wrong. It seems that something is missing? What is missing?" He raised his head, looked around, and suddenly saw a goshawk soaring high in the sky , Seeing this goshawk, Lu Hong's body was shaken, he finally lost something!
Bird! With so many of them walking through the forest, they didn't startle a bird or encounter a beast. Usually, no one came to Bixiu Peak. The forest is so dense, how could there not be a single bird? There is only one reason, here, there have been people here long ago, these people who arrived first, scared these birds away.
"Be careful!" he roared loudly.
Following his roar, the sound of sharp arrows piercing the sky suddenly resounded in the forest. Countless sharp arrows shot out from the forest on both sides of the team like a storm. When the home is right in front of them, they will encounter such a fierce ambush. They don't even have a piece of armor on their bodies, sharp arrows enter their bodies, screaming again and again, and in an instant, batches of them fall down .
While Lu Hong was roaring, he was already leaning sideways to the side of the horse. Huang Desheng let out a roar and swooped down, throwing Zhang Shubao, who was stunned by his side, off the horse, and pressed him tightly. At this time, the horses of the three were also shot like hedgehogs. Because Huang Desheng pounced on Zhang Shubao, there was a little delay, and three feathered arrows immediately appeared on his back.
"How did this happen?" Zhang Shubao, who was crushed under him, yelled in despair, "How did the Donghu people copy ahead of us?"
Lu Hong drew out his knife and fell on the ground. Hearing the whizzing rain of arrows, he turned his head and shouted, "Desheng, Desheng, are you still alive? Second Young Master, are you injured?" ?”
"Not to die yet!" ~IndoMTL.com~ Huang Desheng's voice can be heard to reveal great pain. "Er Gong is fine. Old Lu, what's going on?"
Lu Hong picked up a feather arrow from the ground and held it in front of his eyes. Just looking at it, his heart sank to the bottom of the valley.
This is not the feathered arrow commonly used by Donghu people, but the standard feathered arrow unique to western Liaoning.
"It's not the Donghu people, it's the Liaoxi Army!" Lu Hong shouted.
Groups of soldiers rushed out from the forest, wielding knives and guns, and mercilessly chopped down the surrounded soldiers to the ground.
"The Chinese army, it's the Chinese army!" Zhang Shubao, who got up from the ground, couldn't believe his eyes. Those who were savagely wielding knives and guns and slaughtering his brothers turned out to be the Chinese army of the Liaoxi County soldiers.
"Everyone, not one!" A voice sounded, it was Zhang Zhuo, and the three of them were very familiar with his voice.
Zhang Shubao stood up, Lu Hong stood up, Huang Desheng, with three feathered arrows stuck in his back, also stood up with difficulty with a knife stick. Zhang Zhuo's eyes were filled with disbelief. (to be continued...)
