Chapter 378: Relentless Pursuit
"It's simple, because I'm a little witch and I know magic!"
Her lively eyes, like water, blinked so cutely and coquettishly that it made people intoxicated.
If it weren't for the sneer on her lips, everyone would think she was an innocent and harmless beautiful girl.
"Bai Li, get out of the way. You're just a little girl, and there are hundreds of us. Do you think you have a chance of winning against us?"
Xuan Yuao looked like he was thinking about her, and if you didn't know him, you would think he cared about her very much.
“Puff!”
Bai Li couldn't help but laugh.
"Xuan Yu'ao, I don't understand why the Meng Kingdom would send you to lead the troops?
If your third brother Xuan Yuhao led the troops, there might be some chance of victory."
Bai Li lied and did not forget to flatter Xuan Yuao. In fact, even if Xuan Yuhao came to lead the troops, she would not let him win.
After hearing this, the deputy general who originally had some resentment towards Xuan Yuao now felt eight points more resentful.
Yes, if the brave and warlike Third Prince had come, they would definitely not be in such a mess now.
The eldest prince is brave enough, but he is not as smart as the third prince.
Compared to him, the eldest prince can only be regarded as a reckless man with courage but no strategy.
Xuan Yuao noticed the change in the expression of the people around him, and his teeth chattered.
This damn woman, he had sincerely asked for her hand in marriage, but not only did she not agree, she also found a way to have him arrested by the Great Zhou.
Later, his father ceded two states and paid compensation of 10,000 cattle, sheep, horses, 100,000 bows and arrows, and 100,000 rolls of leather before he was allowed to return to Mongolia.
Otherwise, his father would not be so angry and would not want to unite with other countries to attack the Great Zhou.
"Bai Li, stop sowing discord. If you're not afraid of death, then show your true colors."
"Come on! Whoever kills Bai Li will be rewarded with a province or county, and will enjoy eternal fiefdom!"
This condition was tempting enough. Before Xuan Yuao finished speaking, hundreds of people attacked Bai Li.
In Xuan Yuao's opinion, it was definitely too late for Bai Li to ride the eagle now. She was facing hundreds of people alone, half of whom were fearless warriors. She could not withstand them even if she had three heads and six arms.
Bai Li gripped the hilt of the machete tightly with both hands, swung it, a flash of white light flashed across the air, and he rushed forward with the machete raised.
A series of "ding ding clang clang" sounds were heard, and the weapons in the hands of hundreds of people broke, fell, and had holes.
Xuan Yuao lifted his jaw with his hand and swallowed hard.
"You, how did you forge your sword? It's so powerful?!"
"Want to know?"
Xuan Yuao nodded sincerely. Bai Li lowered his head and sneered, "If you want to know, go to hell and ask the King of Hell!"
Xuan Yuao was stunned and still didn't understand.
"Is your sword forged by the King of Hell?"
The deputy general really wanted to hold his forehead with his hand. Whoever wants such a stupid master can go!
"Come on, you'll find out soon!"
Bai Li swung his sword and attacked again.
There were a total of five hundred people, and more than a hundred of them had fallen before Bai Li made his second attack.
After the second attack, only two hundred warriors were still trembling with her. The others were either dead or injured, and all lost their combat effectiveness.
Xuan Yuao retreated silently, hiding behind the assassins, waiting for an opportunity to slip away.
Bai Li had experience in fighting zombies, so he no longer held back on these dead men. He chopped at their arms and heads with his sword. As long as these parts were cut off, the dead men would lose their ability to move.
However, the dead soldiers have no emotions and no sense of pain. They are like robots and only know how to follow orders. It is much more difficult for them to fight than normal people.
However, Bai Li mastered the key points and his sword strikes never missed.
Soon, half of the two hundred assassins turned into monsters without hands or feet, still jumping around and attacking people.
"Xuan Yuao, where are you running to!"
Bai Li saw from the corner of his eye a purple shadow flash in the dense forest. Who else could it be except that coward Xuan Yuao?
While dealing with the assassins, Bai Li kept an eye on that side. Several lieutenants lying on the ground saw their master running away, so they crawled away as well!
Bai Li scoffed lightly, "I never thought that the Mongolian soldiers were all cowards, deserting before the battle even begins!"
But no one else could answer her except the strange roars of the dead soldiers.
"Big Eagle, hurry up and catch up, don't let him get away!"
Bai Li couldn't escape, so he had to give orders to the silly eagle who was being chased by a assassin.
It is not unfair to call it a stupid eagle. It can obviously fly, but it just doesn't know how to use its own advantages and runs stupidly.
It pecked the assassin a few times with its beak, but other than pecking off a few pieces of flesh, it did no harm to the assassin. Instead, it provoked him to attack even more frantically.
Bai Li became more and more frightened as the fight went on. These assassins had human minds but were not human. He didn't know what kind of powder the witch doctor had used to make them lose their ability to think and perceive.
It seems that just burning the corpse is not enough, the source of evil, the witch doctor, must be eliminated, otherwise who knows how many monsters will appear in this world!
Bai Li cut the Gordian knot and quickly chopped off the hands, feet and heads of these assassins.
Only after the last man fell did he put away his knife and rush into the dense forest.
I don’t know if it’s because of bathing in the space stream, but Bai Li’s body and soul are becoming more and more seamlessly integrated, and he doesn’t feel tired or uncomfortable when using his supernatural powers.
In the dense forest, like a flash of lightning, a touch of green shuttled through the forest.
In the barracks, Bai Zongren led 50,000 troops and defeated 100,000 Mongolian troops, rendering them completely defeated.
It’s no wonder that the Mongolian army was incompetent. They were dizzy from the bombing in the middle of the night, and before they could come to their senses, waves of crossbow arrows flew towards them.
His companions fell in front of him one by one, with fire everywhere around him. In such a sudden and chaotic situation, he was able to react quickly and pick up weapons to resist. This was already very good.
"Have you seen Marshal Bai?"
Bai Zongren chopped off one man's arm with a knife, kicked him away, and then asked the deputy general next to him.
"General Bai, Marshal Bai just chased after him in the back mountains!"
"Back mountain? Where does the back mountain lead to?"
"I'm not sure about that...ah!"
The deputy general was distracted and was almost hit on the shoulder by the enemy's hammer.
Bai Zongren was quick to pull him away and saved him from danger.
"Don't be distracted when fighting the enemy. There won't be a next time!"
Bai Zongren patted him on the shoulder and gave him a serious lecture.
Lieutenant General...
If the general wasn't asking him questions, how could he be distracted?
But he didn't dare say this. He was a general and a soldier. On the battlefield, the general's words were like an imperial decree.
"Yes, thank you for your teachings, General!"
"General Bai, most of the Mongolian army has been destroyed, a small number have surrendered, and several thousand have escaped!"
Ji Huanan came to report, and Bai Zongren pulled him over, "You've come at the right time. We won't take care of those who escaped. You come and lead the others to clean up the battlefield. I'll go check on Li'er."
"General, may I go with you?"
"No, you just need to send flares into the city and clean up the battlefield. Be on guard."
"Yes, General."
Bai Zongren made all the arrangements and headed towards the back mountain with two bodyguards.
