Chapter four hundred and seventy-ninth shock
It was already dusk, and the evening breeze blew on the prairie, and the green grass rustled. Zuo Jiu, with Yuan Hai, who was unconscious, galloped westward surrounded by hundreds of remnants and generals, but his heart was cold.
At this time, Zuo Jiu's mind was blank. It was not that he didn't think about it, but that he didn't know what to think about.
The road under his feet was very familiar. He could even identify these traces left by him leading reinforcements the day before yesterday. But he could never imagine that in just over a day, Qinhaidu City was defeated, and he took these remaining soldiers and soldiers to embark on this road again. He had the face to meet the clan leader and go to see Babaqi, the clan son of the Tuoba tribe.
With a "pop", Zuo Jiu, who was lost in his mind, did not protect Yuan Hai, and let him fall from the brocade saddle.
Although the blood had stopped, Yuan Hai, who had fallen to the ground and rolled twice, still moaned a few times unconsciously.
Zuo Jiu hurried down and carefully helped Yuan Hai to the Qingwan Beast. Seeing this man fall into a state of ignorance of life and death in order to save him, he felt extremely regretful. His legs became weak, and he knelt on the ground, lying in the grass and howled.
However, the grassland was empty, and the howling sounds dissipated not too far with the gentle evening breeze. All the generals and soldiers became dogs of a family. Seeing Zuo Ji like this, they were all panicked and didn't know what the fate of waiting for them was.
******************
The car was shaking and horses were shaking, and Chen Hai sat on a double-rod copper chariot, holding a secret talisman scroll in his hand and watching carefully, as the copper swayed in the depths of the grassland.
At this time, the stars had risen, and the Tuoba tribe, a hundred miles away, stopped. The Tieya Army also stopped to rectify the formation and dig the stove to rise, and did not rush to go up.
In a short while, smoke from cooking fires rose. If the ones who were accompanying them were murderous elite soldiers, what a good night tour scene would be.
A spirit swan from afar passed through the clouds and flew directly towards Chen Hai.
Linghu's elegant figure hovered in the air for a while, landing on Chen Hai's shoulders, looking around and looking around, Shenjun was extremely handsome.
Chen Hai put down the scroll, smiled and stroked the feathers of the spirit swan, took off the secret letter tied to the scales, raised his arm, and let the spirit swan break through the air.
Opening the snow-white letter, Chen Hai smiled slightly, and said to Cang Yi, Zhang Xiong, He Grandma He and others who came over, "Senior Brother Yan is very sharp in his military use. At this time, he has actually taken down Qinhaidu..."
The Black Yan army retreated north, although hunger and cold, and suffered heavy casualties, those who followed Yan Yuan were all determined people. It was not surprising that they could take Qinhaidu so quickly." Zhang Xiong said.
Chen Hai nodded, thinking that as long as Yan Yuan knew the meaning of Qinhaidu and dared to sacrifice, it would not be surprising to take down Qinhaidu before the enemy had time to adjust its military deployment.
Chen Hai asked someone to rush forward and told Tie Kun, who was in the front camp, knew that soon they heard the savage generals in front of them yelled excitedly. Who knew what it meant to take down Qinhaidu first...
************************
Almost at the same time, Tuoba Qi also received news of the fall of Qinhai Ferry.
Although he had always been worried about Yuan Hai and Zuo Ji and the others could not defend Qinhai Du, he never expected Qinhai Du to fall so quickly. His heart was cold. Standing under the moonlight, his huge body trembled slightly. A year ago, he led his troops across the Tonghe River to advance eastward. Who would have thought that what he faced a year later would be so at the end of the road.
Zuo Jiu was too hasty on his way to escape west, and he rushed to send a message to announce the defeat. He was very concerned about the fall of Qinhaidu, but his words were filled with regret and shame. He wanted to come over to apologize to Tuoba Qi and Zuo Yang. Tuoba Qi was so angry that he wanted to tear the letter to pieces.
Even though the 20,000 war cavalry of the Black Yan Army's vanguard gathered before them, Qinhaidu, which had been in operation for so many years, was it so easy to fall?
In the expedition of the vast sea for decades, no matter what kind of dilemma, Tuoba Qi can finally find a solution at the most critical moment, but now, he is completely panicked. Why are so many elite humans coming out of Yaoshan? Why did the Black Yan Army rush to Qinhaidu without hesitation?
He can't see through too many puzzles and solve them. This battle is left to fate. How can he fight?
This sense of powerlessness was never before that Tuoba Qi. He almost completely destroyed his spiritual will. Zuo Yang and others were also covered in dust. They really didn't know what they were going to do next?
The next morning, the sun shone light and heat onto the grassland as usual, but for the generals and soldiers of the Tuoba tribe, they could not feel any warmth.
Qinhai Du was trapped and his way back was blocked, not something that Tuoba Banner could hide. Qinhai Du was one thousand miles away at this time. Although Zuo Jiu had not escaped yet, there were still some barbarians of all sizes living along the water and grass within the radius of the left and right, and the news was also spread.
These barbarians originally chose to join the Tuoba tribe, but overnight, they all chose to escape from their habitat and were unwilling to interfere with the Tuoba tribe.
The Tuoba tribe changed its direction today and no longer advanced towards Qinhaidu. Instead, Baying went northeast, and the river bay area where Tonghe River entered the Hanhai Sea, embarked on a road of even more uncertainty.
What made Tuoba Qi even more vigilant was that the Tieya tribe's actions have accelerated today. By the time of dusk, the distance between the two sides was thirty miles shortened.
Tuoba Qi can no longer make a judgment on the situation. After all, if he wants to bring back the 80,000 elite troops under his command, there are not many choices left for him.
******************************
The moonlight was like water, shining on several figures running wildly in the darkness.
At noon, the 10,000 cavalrymen behind Zuojiu met him, and the tragic situation of Zuojiu and Yuanhai really surprised them.
Could it be that the thousands of defenders in Qinhaidu only escaped from them?
The chief general of this army learned that the floating bridge was still there, so he wanted to take this opportunity to rush over and retake the Qinhai Ferry.
Zuo Jiu stopped his thoughts with a expressionless face. The floating bridge was just a wire chain that connected dozens of fishing boats and could be destroyed at any time. The Black Yan Army was not in a hurry to destroy it. On the one hand, it was possible that the main force of the Black Yan Army also wanted to cross the river and advance westward. On the other hand, the Black Yan Army was more likely to deliberately leave the floating bridge and lure them to attack.
After handing over Yuan Hai to reinforcements, Zuo Jiucao ate some food and brought more than a dozen cavalry to meet with Tuoba Qi.
By the time they arrived, it was already late at night, and the Tuoba tribe camp was trapped in darkness. Occasionally, there were a few bright lights dotted, which seemed particularly depressed.
When they approached the military camp, someone had already come to greet him from afar. Seeing that it was Zuo Jiu, he bowed and bowed and wanted to take Zuo Jiu to the Tuoba Banner.
Zuo Jiu was impatient with the delay and rushed to the central army. After asking for directions, he ignored the noise and went straight to the central army's tent.
Tuoba Qi's days are like a passing by water and fire. When he couldn't sleep at night, he sat blankly in the tent, and his mind was tossing and turning, all of which were the scenes of his own defeat.
It was not until the noise sounded outside the account that Zuo Jiu's arrival was discovered. As soon as the color was right, Zuo Jiu lifted the curtain and rushed in. When he saw Tuoba Qi, Zuo Yang fell to the ground and cried.
Under the dim light, Tuoba Qi tried several times to stop Zuo Jiu from making a sad voice, but none of them succeeded. After a while, Zuo Jiu stabilized his emotions.
"Zongzi, you and my tribes are in trouble this time." Zuo Jiu said with a sob.
Tuoba Qi frowned. He knew that the fall of Qinhai Ferry had a great blow to Zuo Jiu, so he waited patiently for him to tell him about the details of the fall of Qinhai Ferry.
"The Black Yan Army seemed weak in Chimei Lake, but the troops arrived outside Qinhai City and used a heavy crossbow to blow open the Xicheng Gate of Qinhai Du in just two or three breaths. The men had no power to resist..."
Zuo Jiu's words were made by Tuoba Qi, and Zuo Yang stood on the spot.
He knew the city defense of Qinhaidu, and he advocated the construction of the Du Bridge in Qinhai's proximity. The entire Qinhaidu city was made of huge stones, and the city gates were also made of thousands of years of hard wood, wrapped in an inch of fine copper.
It can be said that even if a strong man in the Daodan realm takes action personally, he will not be able to destroy the city gate in a short period of time.
Tuoba Qi grabbed Zuo Jiu's shoulder and asked in disbelief: "What? Do you think that the human race destroyed the city wall at Qinhai Ferry in a short time in just three or five breaths?"
Zuo Jiu nodded and replied sadly: "Yes, the heavy crossbow they used is unprecedented, the firing speed is unimaginable, and the crossbow arrows they shot are also unimaginable - Zongzi, patriarch, please see..."
Zuo Jiu reached out and took out a dark iron arrow more than a foot long from his arms and handed it to Tuoba Yan.
The triangular arrow cluster is seriously deformed and bent, but it is not difficult to judge how sharp it is when it is shot out. The remaining sharp blade is shining with cold light. This crossbow arrow is actually made of gold and iron that is hard to come by on the grassland, and is stained with blood.
A crossbow arrow weighs twelve or three pounds, which is really unimaginable - you know, a wooden spear may only be more than ten pounds.
Tuoba Qi's big hand was trembling. These gold-tempered heavy-headed arrows were so so sophisticated and the materials were so precious that he could hardly imagine what power this kind of crossbow would be shot wildly with a heavy crossbow.
"The Black Yan Army has not many heavy crossbows, but the firing speed is unimaginable. In one breath, it can almost shoot twelve or three such heavy arrows. The city gate was torn open by such heavy arrows, and it didn't even last for twenty breaths."
Tuoba Qi did not see the appearance of the Tianji Crossbow when it exploded, so he naturally had no way to guess the power of the Tianji Crossbow. But as long as what Zuo Jiu said was the fact, then the brave and brave cavalry generals who were proud of the Tuoba tribe would have no place to use martial arts.
He comforted Zuo Jiu for a while and asked him to rest first. Tuoba Qi fell into deep thought in the tent, and felt that his heart was so cunning.
Suddenly he remembered a serious matter. Yaoshan and the two human races in Chimei Lake are obviously related. The human race in Chimei Lake has such a terrifying battle crossbow. Will there be no Yaoshan Tieya tribe? Why didn't they use it in such a crisis?
The expectation of turning around and shattering his jade was also dashed. Tuoba Qi sighed silently and sat there. At some point, the sky turned blue and the outside began to be noisy again. However, Tuoba Qi had no idea what to do today... Maybe he could only take one step and look at it?
