Saburo Shoda held the sword in his right hand and quietly held his left hand behind his back, making a very special gesture.
This scene caught the eye of someone at the top of the city, and he immediately patted the deputy general, Koizumi Benimaru, who was hiding under the wall.
The latter immediately understood, stood up suddenly, took aim, and the poison-quenched arrows that had been fully drawn on the bow suddenly shot out——
"Whoosh!"
"Pfft!"
The arrow shot directly into Chen Shen's right arm, causing him to scream in agony.
"Come die!"
Zhuangtian Saburo saw the right opportunity and slashed with the Zhangba Yanyue Sword, directly taking Chen Shen's head!
The latter was shocked and turned on the flash at the critical moment.
"Whoa!"
Behind the electric light and flint, the afterimage after the flash was torn to pieces by the strong wind. Chen Shen himself flew down to a hundred meters away. The spear had already been retracted into the space package, and he was covering his bleeding arm with a pale face.
He stared blankly and roared angrily: "You are a bastard playing dirty tricks?"
When Saburo Shoda saw that Chen Shen had escaped his fatal blow, he secretly thought it was a pity, but without replying on his face, he tried his best to urge the armored rhinoceros beast under his crotch to charge forward.
"Red Rabbit!"
"Xi Yu Yu!"
In a moment, the one-horned red-maned beast arrived first. Chen Shen got on his horse and fled toward the main formation more than 20 miles away.
"What kind of bullshit flying general? Under my hands, you can't be killed and run away like a lost dog? Hahahahaha..."
Saburo Shoda laughed wildly while chasing, thinking to himself: "I was hit by an arrow that was quenched with rotten corpse poison. With Chen Shen's cultivation level not reaching the king level, even if he took the poison-clearing pill, without the corresponding antidote,
Under such circumstances, one’s cultivation level will not be the same!”
In the distance, the heroic cavalry army and the Xue Xuewei main formation were all in an uproar——
"What a bastard! He actually stabbed someone in the back while fighting in front of the battle!" Li Dezhi gritted his teeth.
"Taikou people have always been despicable and shameless, and I have long been accustomed to it." Chen Xin responded with a cold eyebrow.
Chen Qibing said in a deep voice: "Get ready for battle! The Tai Kou traitors will most likely come out in full force to pursue the victory!"
However, they did not wait for the scene where the city gates of Yutong Pass opened wide and the Taikoo army surged in.
After Saburo Shoda chased for a while, he realized that he couldn't keep up with Chi Hato's speed, and his pursuit was in vain.
Moreover, even though Chen Shen, the commander-in-chief, had failed, there was no chaos at all in the distant Cavalry Army and the Xuewei Guards. The military appearance was neat and tidy, and the soldiers were all standing on horseback with their swords drawn and their sharp edges strong.
Even if he gave a loud order to kill all the troops in Yutong Pass, he might not be able to get any benefits.
The most important thing is that the time limit for the clone he sacrificed with the Soul-Forging Shadow Talisman has expired, and Han Tianhu has lost his restraint.
If it and the 20,000 valiant cavalry troops attack front and back at all costs, even if Shoda Saburo can get rid of Chen Shen, he may not be able to escape calmly.
Out of this consideration, Zhuang Tian chose to pull his horse back to the city: "Now is not the time, let's wait."
"When the poison in Chen Shen's body completely breaks out and the vigilance of the Daxia soldiers is lowered late at night, I will lead the army to rob the camp again, and I will surely win a complete victory!"
…
The battle is over.
Chen Shen, who had never suffered a defeat along the way, was unexpectedly defeated by the famous Taikou general Shoda Saburo today.
There was endless joy at Yutong Pass, but the position of the Chen family army was a gloomy and bleak scene.
When Chen Shen was carried by Red Rabbit to the front of the military formation, he had already fainted while lying on the horse. His arms drooped weakly, swaying feebly as the road was bumpy...
After observing for a while and confirming that the Taikoo side would not go out of the city to pursue them, Li Dezhi and other generals hurriedly urged their horses forward, and then helped their commander, who almost slipped off his horse, back to the main camp of the formation.
"Chen Shuai, Chen Shuai!"
"Young Master? Wake up, Young Master!"
"Quick, get some water and drink this recovery pill..."
All the generals and commanders were talking in a hurry, but Chen Shen suddenly opened his eyes, and his pale face returned to normal at a speed visible to the naked eye: "Phew, I finally don't have to act anymore!"
"ah?"
The surrounding Chen Qibing, Li Dezhi and others were instantly petrified: "Young Marshal (Young Master), are you okay?"
Chen Shen sat up, twisted his neck that was now slightly numb, and said with a smile: "Of course it's okay. The three-star Xuan King has allocated most of his combat power to his clones to deal with Han Tianhu, brother.
It’s weird to be suppressed by him!”
"Ah? Then you are..." Sixth Elder Chen Yiru became more and more surprised.
On the contrary, Ling'er and Shun Lao were the calmest. Wearing their flowing fire masks, they couldn't see their faces clearly, but their eyes were always as calm as water.
They had gone through too many ups and downs with Chen Shen, and based on their understanding of their young master, it was clear at first glance that they were not trying their best.
Apart from anything else, if Mr. Chen really couldn't defeat him, why didn't he release the twenty-one war puppets early?
There is also Xiaobai, the white tiger who is not big, looks cute, but has unfathomable strength.
I think back then, Master Chen defeated the enemy with only the power of the Eighteen Bronze Men, the Three Sword Guards, and the Little White Cold Sky Tiger!
This scene was not seen by the other soldiers of the Knight Cavalry and the Blood Guard, because they were all assigned other tasks, or were locked in a stalemate with the enemy in their respective battle groups, and had little time to look around.
But Shun Lao and Ling'er were lucky enough to witness those huge war machines and Xiao Bai's power as a tiger god.
When the two of them thought about it, Chen Shao obviously had so many killer weapons, but he was defeated by a conspiracy without using any of them. There must be something fishy here.
This is indeed the case.
It turned out that when Chen Shen and Shoda Saburo launched the first wave of hedging, the latter's first words made him aware of something strange: "I'm afraid you can't afford to fight. It would be too much to run away without a fight."
Boring!"
Generally speaking, when a general is facing a battle, he only talks about killing, not escaping.
But why did Saburo Shoda say such a thing?
"Is there a way to provoke generals?"
After hearing this, Chen Shen instinctively narrowed his eyes and secretly opened the Omniscient Map, spreading his spiritual consciousness throughout the entire area.
Soon, a man was caught on the top of the city, hiding behind the wall, holding a bow and string, and acting suspiciously.
From that moment on, Chen Shen already knew: "Saburo Shoda is planning to play dirty tricks!"
As a result, he resorted to tricks, deliberately showing his weakness to the enemy, being suppressed, injured, and later "successfully plotted". Every scene he performed was deliberately staged for the opponent to see.
Because Chen Shen knew very well that even if he could kill Saburo Shoda in a battle, the Yutong Pass in front of him, which was like an iron wall, would still be difficult to break.
The fourteen Xuanjing heavy cannons on the top of the city alone are enough to feed the Knights and the Blood Guards.
What's more, there are still 100,000 Taikou troops in the city. They are guarding the strong pass, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack.
If Chen Shen used Xuanjing heavy artillery to confront the enemy directly outside the city, he would inevitably be a little intolerable.
You know, those trapped in the city are all innocent people of Daxia.
Once the war breaks out in the pass, it will inevitably affect Chiyu. This is not what Chen Shen wants to see...
