While Gui Fei was in a daze in the snow, Gao Qinhu was running wildly in the snow, looking for food everywhere like a hungry mad beast.
When fighting with Long Chen, he was also shot in the leg by Long Chen, and the skin and flesh of the injured area were dug out. Gao Qinhu grimaced in pain, but this was not bad, after all, he only needed to dig out the flesh.
The bullet on his back stayed too long and was close to his heart. Long Chen deliberately pestered Gao Qinhu not to give Gao Qinhu a chance to heal. The flesh and bones around his shoulder blades were scorched black, and there was even a trace of smoke coming out.
After rushing out of Yanmen Pass, Gao Qinhu quickly tore his armor. The wound was already scorched black. If he dragged it any longer, his heart would be scorched. Gao Qinhu became fierce and pulled out his knife to dig out the entire shoulder blade.
After digging out the shoulder blade, the wound was still spreading. Gao Qinhu couldn't see clearly what was going on behind him, so he endured severe pain and shaved off the bones around the wound. The pain made Gao Qinhu scream in agony.
The shoulder blade was dug out, and the left arm could not be saved at all, leaving only the right half of the body.
His body suffered huge trauma and needed to drink blood to recover. Gao Qinhu ran like crazy in the snowy field, trying to find the barbarian to drink blood.
After the last round of sweeps, the barbarians in the grassland have been cleared once. The tigers ran wildly for hundreds of miles, but not a single barbarian was found.
Gao Qinhu felt that his vision was gradually blurring, his body seemed to be getting dryer, and his legs were not working properly.
"ghost..."
Suddenly, there was a faint sound in front of him. Gao Qinhu could no longer see clearly. With his last instinct, he pounced forward, grabbed a barbarian, tore out his throat, and sucked the blood.
This group of barbarians escaped from Yanmen Pass. They were small in number, only about fifty people.
Gao Qinhu sucked blood like crazy. More than fifty barbarians were sucked out quickly. The wound on Gao Qinhu's left shoulder slowly stopped bleeding and healed.
His vision and hearing finally recovered. Gao Qinhu looked at the corpses on the ground, turned his head and glanced over his left shoulder, and felt a complex emotion rising in his heart.
As the most powerful general under Wu Sheng, he was actually beaten to a cripple by a junior named Long Chen. How could he have the dignity to see Wu Sheng again? Bayi Chinese website
Gao Qinhu picked up the black gun on the ground and wandered aimlessly in the snowfield.
...
Li Chengdao was ordered to turn back and look for the ghost warriors. After searching for a long time, he returned to the ghosts with more than eighty of them.
Looking up at more than eighty soldiers, Guitai asked quietly: "That's it?"
Li Chengdao sighed: "Holy Son, there are only so many."
"Although the personal guards killed tens of thousands of Long family troops, they were defeated by Long Chen and the empress withdrew from Yanmen Pass."
"After that, Long Chen chased him all the way, and the guards suffered heavy casualties."
Li Chengdao was not surprised when the surviving ghost warrior told him about being chased by Long Chen.
Long Chen has a strong sense of revenge, and the guards will definitely be hunted down if they retreat.
I just didn't expect it to be so miserable. When we retreated, there were almost a thousand, but when we came back, we only had more than eighty.
Guitai slowly stood up, looked at the few remaining guards, and said unwillingly: "You can't fight, so why can't you run away? Won't you run away separately?"
The ghost warrior stood with his head lowered and said with lingering fear: "Holy Son, that Long Chen was chasing him like crazy. We only managed to save our lives by running away."
Guitai didn't believe that there was only this little left, and said: "If you keep looking for it, there will definitely be more. Long Chen can kill as many as he can, so keep looking for him!"
Li Chengdao had no choice but to lead his guards to search again.
...
Yanmen Pass.
When Long Chen returned to Guanwai, it was already noon the next day.
It was dark last night. Long Chen, Zhang Qian, and Bai Tingting could see clearly, but the soldiers couldn't see the road clearly, so they rested in the snow all night.
When they arrived outside the pass, the soldiers on the city immediately lowered their ropes when they saw Long Chen.
Long Chen looked at the front of the pass. The snow turned into ice cubes under the burning of the kerosene bombs, and the ashes and kerosene dyed the ice cubes a dirty color.
All the barbarian puppets in the city were gone. Hu Feiyang captured a dozen of them and killed all the others.
The soldiers are repairing the city wall, and the damaged crossbows and catapults are being repaired.
Two thousand ghost warriors rushed to Yanmen Pass, and their destructive power was extremely shocking. Li Chengdao, in particular, ran rampant on the city wall, killing everyone he saw and breaking all his weapons.
"Husband, come up."
Zhang Qian sighed slightly, she knew that Long Chen felt uncomfortable.
Long Chen nodded slightly and jumped up to the pass, followed by Zhang Qian and Bai Tingting.
The soldiers were not skilled enough, so they could only hang them up with ropes, and the war horses and the corpses of the ghost warriors were hung together.
When Long Chen came back, the officers and soldiers of the Long Family Army gathered around and saluted.
"King Wu."
"grown ups."
Looking at the injured soldiers, Long Chen stood on a high place with mixed emotions. He bowed his hands to everyone and said, "Brothers, I...I'm sorry for you."
Gan Zhen came out and paid his respects: "Sir, the ghost clan is so cruel that our brothers suffered many casualties. This is not your fault."
The officers of the Long Family Army behind him also said: "Your Excellency, you have not sorry for us."
Long Chen let out a long sigh and said: "My fault is my lack of preparation, miscalculation, and improper command."
After encountering Gao Qinhu last time, Long Chen prepared a defense with all his strength, but in the end he was attacked at Yanmen Pass. The Long family army suffered heavy casualties, and Long Chen felt very guilty in his heart.
Tang Heizi limped out and said, "Sir, what are you guilty of? You are fighting with us to kill the enemy. The ghost tribe is fierce and casualties are inevitable."
"If the Lord hadn't taken action, all of our brothers would have been killed."
Long Chen sighed, bowed to the soldiers again, and then silently walked down the pass.
All the soldiers watched Long Chen go to Xiaguan.
Long Chen walked into the barracks. Military doctors were doing their best to treat the wounded soldiers, and there were painful moans in his ears.
After reading it, Long Chen went to the empress' room. The empress and Miaoyin were sitting next to them, and Yingfeng was lying on the bed.
Long Chen already knew the news about Yingfeng's death in battle. Zhang Qian told him last night.
"Back."
The empress saw Long Chen and said lightly.
Miaoyin stood up, and Long Chen slowly walked to the bed, sat on the edge of the bed, and gently smoothed Yingfeng's hair.
"If Yingfeng also turned into a half-ghost body, maybe it wouldn't be like this."
Long Chen felt guilty again.
Back then, Yingfeng wanted to practice the longevity technique and become a half-ghost, but Long Chen didn't agree.
Because Long Chen wanted the empress to be protected by someone who was not afraid of the Demon Suppressing Stone.
The empress sighed slightly and said, "How can I blame you? Who would have thought that things would be like this."
The battlefield situation changes rapidly, life and death can only happen in a matter of seconds, and no one can predict it.
Miaoyin said: "You cannot attribute all the casualties to your command. If you had not been here, the casualties would have been even greater."
Long Chen sat on the edge of the bed and said nothing.
In this battle, too many people died.
The soldiers of the Long Family Army and many generals, including Ye Chang, were also killed.
After a long time, the empress slowly asked: "Did you chase me very far?"
Long Chen nodded slightly and said: "Don't stop until you can't chase anymore. The kill is almost done."
The empress sighed, stood up and said: "You are a general who has fought hundreds of battles. You should accept the cruelty of the battlefield. You should not be depressed just because the people who died are special."
"This is the first battle with the ghost clan. There will be more brutal battles to come. Go back and rest."
Yingfeng and Long Chen have a very good relationship, everyone knows it, and the empress knows it even better.
Therefore, the empress also knew Long Chen's mood better.
When Miaoyin found Yingfeng, she was already cold. Otherwise, she could be resurrected by feeding her blood, just like the ghost fetus resurrected Li Chengdao.
The battlefield is like this. From the generals to the soldiers, they are all on the verge of life and death.
