Chapter 44 Deadlock
Chapter 44: Stalemate
Just when the Yan family and the Xiahou family were at a loss, suddenly-
"Enemy attack!"
"Enemy attack!"
A loud and sharp voice came from the West. The Yan family army was unable to occupy Beixia Mountain, and there were many casualties and injuries. The morale was depressed. He was even more shocked when he heard the shouts of "Enemy Attack". He held the weapons in his hands tightly and obeyed the orders and prepared to face the enemy. The troops in the Western front had already fought with the enemy.
At this moment, there was no need to attack Bei'aishan anymore. Yan Baishou, Xiahou An, and the Iron Sword Martial Saint all looked to the west, and a soldier carrying a small flag behind him rushed over quickly.
"Which side is from?" Yan Baishou's face changed slightly.
"Reported to the head of the family, it is the Duan family's army." The sergeant company reported that "the second general is leading the right-wing army to resist the Duan family's army's attack."
Yan Baishou nodded slightly.
"Let's go." The Iron Sword Martial Saint said in a deep voice, "Go ahead and take a look."
Immediately, the Iron Sword Martial Saint, Yan Baishou and Xiahou An rushed to the right wing together. As they advanced, they also heard the shouts of killing from the front. Not long after, just as Yan Baishou and others had arrived in the right wing army, they heard a shrill shout: "Escape, escape quickly."
The military flag had fallen, and soldiers, who were like headless flies, began to be defeated wildly in the face of the Duan family's strong morale attack!
Thousands of people fighting are actually morale!
Once the front is defeated, a wave of defeat will form... Even if the soldiers behind want to take over, they will be defeated by the fleeing soldiers in front. As the saying goes, the defeat is like a mountain of collapse, and the defeat in front will be formed. It will be very difficult to reverse the situation later.
"Not good." Yan Baishou's face changed drastically.
"Why is the Duan family so powerful that they defeated the right-wing army so quickly?" The Iron Sword Martial Saint was a little surprised.
"Brother Xiahou, it depends on you." After Yan Baishou finished speaking, he shouted loudly, "Wu Jian, lead your troops to block their tea time... The others broke through to the north!"
The defeated army was in a mess, and Yan Baishou was now trying desperately to reduce his losses.
...
Half an hour later, with the help of the Xiahou family army, after resisting the Duan family's attack head-on, the Yan family finally took a breath and saved most of the people. Even so... it caused blood-stained corpses to be seen everywhere in the fleeing mountains and forests. With just one fierce attack, the Yan family suffered nearly 10,000 people!
"Duan Shijin, this grudge is not good, I swear not to be a human being!!!" Yan Baishou, who was dirty on his body, looked at the West and couldn't help but grit his teeth.
In just half an hour, nearly 10,000 people were lost, and even his brother Yan Bailiu was trampled to death by the defeated army! The death of his brother, coupled with the sudden blow, made Yan Baihun angry.
"Why is this Duan family army so powerful?" Xiahou An also looked ugly, "My Xiahou family was prepared for it. He saw the right time and was beaten back a mile, killing and injuring thousands of people."
"Armor!"
The Iron Sword Martial Saint said in a deep voice, "The elite part of the Duan family's army leader is wearing all the top-notch armors, all of which are good armor worth thousands of taels of silver. Generally, swords are difficult to be injured. Thousands of elite soldiers wear such armor and are the sharp swords leading the army, which is not surprising that they can't stand it."
"How come their Duan family has such good armor?" Xiahou An narrowed his one-eyed eye, "This high-quality armor is just one or two pieces, and more than a thousand pieces are hard to buy even if you have money."
Hundreds of tribes compete for hegemony on Duanmu Continent, and they attach great importance to war materials.
The large number of ordinary and inferior armors are subject to control, let alone such high-quality armor. Thousands of taels of silver each set requires millions of taels of silver... The silver is small, and so many armors are not available for ordinary families.
"Maybe this family is hidden deep, with such armor hidden." Yan Baishou said coldly.
"Not necessarily, there is a worse situation." The Iron Sword Martial Saint said in a low voice, and Yan Baishou and Xiahou An both looked over.
Worse?
"Behind this Duan family, maybe there is the support of the Rising Sun Trading Company!" said the Iron Sword Martial Saint.
Yan Baishou and Xiahou An immediately took a breath of air conditioning. "If that is true, it will be troublesome." Xiahou An's face changed slightly.
The Rising Sun Trading Company is full of power all over the world, and the slave trade is all over the world. This Rising Sun Trading Company accounts for 20 to 30%, almost in every city. This Rising Sun Trading Company has its own guard! Although it is idle all over the world, if it is gathered together, it will be a very terrible number.
"Don't hurry now."
The Iron Sword Martial Saint said indifferently, "We wanted to take down Bei Ai Mountain in one go, so even if we succeeded most of the time. But since we didn't take down Bei Ai Mountain, we would not rush to attack. After all... until now, the Dan Tai family, the Dong family and the Fu family have no movement. They have dispatched so many troops, it is impossible for them to just watch the show."
Yan Baishou and Xiahou An nodded.
"Now, let's watch the change." The iron sword martial saint looked at the direction of Bei Ai Mountain from afar. At this moment, the foot of Bei Ai Mountain had been occupied by the Duan family army. "What's more, Mr. Teng is on the top of Bei Ai Mountain, and it is impossible for the Duan family army to capture it."
"Yeah, that's impossible."
When Yan Baishou and Xiahou An thought of Teng Qingshan's previous display of their methods, they felt even more at ease.
"Let this Duan family try Teng Qingshan's methods too." Yan Baishou thought maliciously.
The top of the Beixiaoshan.
Teng Qingshan was still sitting cross-legged. A bloody battle occurred below before, which did not affect Teng Qingshan at all.
"This Duan family has some tricks, which actually forced the Xiahou family and the Yan family to retreat." Teng Qingshan looked at the army below.
The troops below were arranged in an orderly manner. Tens of millions of soldiers looked up at the top of the mountain. They were staring at them by so many soldiers, and the pressure was also great. But Teng Qingshan smiled and looked down at the bottom, like a god, looking at countless ordinary humans.
"Mr. Teng!" A clear but loud voice came from the army, "In the lower house, Duan Shijin, I have heard of Mr.'s name for a long time. A few days ago, I had a lucky look. Mr. Tsai's talent. However, my Duan family also has a 100,000 army. I don't want to be an enemy with Mr. Tsai, so I asked Mr. to give up this Beixia Mountain... Afterwards, my Duan family must have thanked me."
Teng Qingshan shook his head and smiled.
"Duan Shijin, please leave quickly." Teng Qingshan's voice echoed among the mountains and forests.
"Mr. Teng..." Duan Shi Jin also wanted to persuade him.
"Leave quickly." Teng Qingshan said coldly again.
Duan Shijin, who had not seen Teng Qingshan's methods before, did not think that a person could really stop thousands of troops from occupying the mountain. With an order, nearly a thousand soldiers rushed to the foot of the Beixiao Mountain and then began to climb almost at the same time. When these soldiers climbed halfway through hardship.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The burning stones flew through the sky, causing the walls of Beixia Mountain to burst everywhere, and a large number of broken stones rolled down, which caused many climbing soldiers to fall from high places, hit the rocks below, and their heads shattered and died tragically on the spot. There were also some lucky points to save their lives.
Just one wave of attacks caused the Duan family to lose hundreds of people.
A groan of pain and screams.
The soldiers who watched this scene couldn't help but turn pale. They were all afraid... they were ordered to climb the mountain.
"This, this..." Duan Shijin, who is under the protection of many soldiers, is a very elegant middle-aged man, but his face is not very good at this moment.
"Brother Duan." A low voice came.
A man wearing dark armor and a helmet on his head walked over, his face blocked by the wire mask of the armor, and his face could not be seen clearly.
Duan Shijin looked back and went up to meet him.
"Give up." The man in the armor stepped forward and whispered a lot to Duan Shijin. At first, Duan Shijin didn't agree, but after a moment, Duan Shijin finally agreed.
...
"Huh?" Teng Qingshan watched the soldiers below retreat, then began to move the bodies of the dead and injured soldiers, and sat down to rest at the same time. Even smoke from cooking rose, and it was obvious that they had started cooking.
"I gave up so soon." Teng Qingshan smiled slightly, "It's better to give up. No matter what, this Beixiashan must not be completely occupied by a large family. It's best to wait for the Dan Tai family, Wu family, Dong family, etc. to bring the army closer and surround the canyon. At that time, all parties restrict each other..."
Everything is like Teng Qingshan’s plan. No family dares to surround the canyon. If they do that, they will be attacked by all other families.
Each family occupied part of the area around the canyon.
The Xiahou family, the Yan family, the Duan family, the Dong family, the Dan Tai family, the Wu family, and the Fu family, who arrived in the morning of the next day, were all very close to the Huoli Tie Canyon, and the seven directions were restricted by each other. Among them... Obviously, the Yan family and the Xiahou family, which were allied with each other, were the most powerful.
In a large tent in the Fu family military camp.
Teng Qingshan, Li Jun, Teng Zu, Yang Dong, Qingluan and Qianfengying were all among them.
"Sir." Fu Dao entered the big tent.
"Thank you for your hard work this time. If it weren't for Mr., the Xiahou family and the Yan family might have occupied Bei'aishan. With their strength, they will occupy the territorial power. At the same time, the canyon will be blocked. At that time... if you want to capture it, you will have five or six times the military power." Fu Dao smiled.
Teng Qingshan shook his head: "Fu Dao, your Fu family has too few hands. It is difficult to occupy this mine vein."
Even if Teng Qingshan is extremely powerful, he is only one person after all.
"Yes." Fu Dao was also a little anxious, "Now, the seven sides are in a stalemate. Our Fu family can be ranked alongside the other six sides because of the gentleman! With the strength of his husband, he can completely occupy the Bei Aishan Mountain. But my Fu family..."
Fu Dao also understands his weakness.
"Fu Dao, now other families outside are probably going to start forming alliances," Teng Qingshan asked.
"Um."
Fu Dao nodded, "This time the Wu family was attacked by the Yan family and Xiahou family, and suffered a great loss. I guess the Dan Tai family, the Dong family, etc. also know this situation. If they don't form an alliance, it will be difficult to monopolize the fire iron ore vein. Unfortunately, now, no one has asked my Fu family to form an alliance."
"Mr. Teng." A shout came from the big tent.
"Come in." Teng Qingshan spoke.
The person who came in was the head of the Fu family, "Fu Yunzhan". Fu Yunzhan looked happy and looked at Fu Dao and said, "Uncle, an envoy from the Duan family is coming outside."
"Duan Family?" Fu Dao couldn't help but show a hint of joy.
"However, they said they wanted to see Mr. Teng." Fu Yunzhan looked at Teng Qingshan.
