When they were about ten miles away from the exit of Death Valley, Wu Lie led the army to stop temporarily and wait for news from the hundred-man team ahead.
Soon, the centurion sent someone back to report, "Your Highness, we encountered the enemy at the mouth of the valley!"
After hearing the report from the person who came, Wu Lie's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and he asked hurriedly: "How many enemy troops are there?"
The man replied, "Less than a hundred people! They are fighting with our troops."
Less than a hundred people?
Wu Lie was overjoyed and immediately shouted: "Pass the order, all troops attack!"
The left captain frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "Prince, the enemy seems to be prepared. Should we wait and see what happens?"
“No need to look at it!”
Wu Lie shook his head confidently: "Those people should be guarding the entrance of the valley to prevent those who were captured before from escaping! We must rush out immediately and not give them a chance to tip off!"
Wu Lie ignored the advice of the Left Grand Commandant and ordered the entire army to launch a surprise attack again.
...
...
Under Wulie's command, the army began to charge towards the mouth of the valley.
Just when the heads of the army were about to rush out of the valley, a loud noise suddenly rang in their ears without warning.
"boom!"
A loud noise startled the Beihuan cavalry who were charging rapidly.
Almost everyone subconsciously looked up at the sky.
The loud noise sounded like thunder from the sky!
Thinking of the terrible legend of the Death Valley, many people began to tremble in their hearts. Even Wu Lie was frightened, fearing that God would bring down thunder as punishment at this time.
“Boom boom…”
Immediately afterwards, several loud noises were heard one after another.
Just as the Beihuan army was in a panic, the snow on the hillsides on both sides of the valley began to slide down on a large scale.
Seeing the sliding snow, Wu Lie's face suddenly changed.
avalanche!
Damn it!
The avalanche is coming!
They are in the valley now!
The avalanche hit and they had nowhere to run!
Wu Lie was completely panicked and shouted loudly: "Get out! Quick, get out!"
Hearing Wu Lie's roar, the left commander beside him had a look of grief and anger on his face.
It’s over!
It's all over!
Rush out?
How to rush out?
They have an army of 40,000!
Even if they can get out, only a very small part of them can get out.
Even if those people rushed out of the valley, they would not be able to capture any city in Dagan.
"Get out! Get out quick!!!"
Wulie's panicked and angry roar continued to ring out.
At this moment, the entire Northern Huan army was in complete chaos.
The sound of war horses neighing and the panicked cries of people filled the air.
Looking at the rolling snow, the cavalry in front rushed forward desperately, and the people behind also wanted to escape, so they rushed forward regardless of everything. Even if the people in front blocked their way, they still squeezed forward desperately.
“Run, run!”
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"
"What should I do? What should I do?"
"God's punishment, this is God's punishment..."
The Beihuan army was in chaos as they fought for their place.
Due to the scramble, the road ahead was extremely congested.
The army behind could only watch helplessly as the snow-capped mountains rushed towards them like a tsunami.
"Why? Why!!!"
Wu Lie looked at the snow falling towards him with bloodshot eyes and roared loudly.
However, his roar had no effect.
The next moment, the rolling snow swallowed up Wu Lie and everyone around him...
…
Late at night, a messenger rushed into Dingbei City at high speed.
After receiving the news from the messenger, Wei Wenzhong almost stumbled and fell to the ground.
Wang Qi's troops accidentally captured a Beihuan spy at the entrance of Death Valley.
They learned from spies that tens of thousands of elite cavalry from the Northern Huan were passing through the Death Valley and attacking the rear of the Northern Palace Army.
Wang Qi has already sent people to Shuofang to ask Yun Zheng for help, and also asked Wei Wenzhong to send troops to support as soon as possible.
“Death Valley, how dare they pass through Death Valley?”
Wei Wenzhong was so confused that he could hardly believe the words of the messenger.
He knew clearly the consequences of these Beihuan elite cavalry attacking the rear of the Northern Palace Army.
But he couldn't believe that Bei Huan had such courage that he dared to pass through the forbidden area of Death Valley and attack the rear of the Beifu Army.
Is Bei Huan crazy?
Don't they know what Death Valley is?
If they were punished by God, their tens of thousands of troops would be destroyed in vain!
Just when Wei Wenzhong was in a panic, another messenger ran in panting.
"General, the prince has led his army to the Death Valley to support General Suqu's troops! The prince has told me to tell the general that the Beihuan army that raided the Death Valley is probably the 40,000 Beihuan troops that suddenly moved to the Langya Pass! The prince may not be able to resist, so please send troops to support him as soon as possible!"
Wei Wenzhong's expression changed drastically. "You said that Beihuan has... 40,000 troops?"
"yes!"
The messenger replied breathlessly: "The prince said that from the current situation, Beihuan's reinforcements to Langya Pass are probably just an illusion. Their real purpose is to raid our rear through the Death Valley! Please ask the general to send troops to support us as soon as possible, otherwise, Shuofang and Suqu will be lost!"
Hearing the messenger's words, the people around Wei Wenzhong were also in a panic.
Forty thousand troops!
If Beihuan's 40,000 elite cavalrymen attack from behind them, not only Suqu and Shuofang will be in danger!
The entire Shuobei will be lost!
"General! Send troops to support us!"
"General, give the order quickly!"
"General..."
The generals urged anxiously, and everyone was thrown into disarray by this sudden news.
"etc!"
Wei Wenzhong raised his hand to stop everyone, and his eyes fell on the messenger again, "Why did you come so quickly? I just received a request for help from Suqu a quarter of an hour ago. It will take time for Wang Qi to send people to ask the prince for help. Logically, you should..."
Before Wei Wenzhong could finish, the messenger replied hastily: "The situation is urgent. The prince has given his Taxue to me..."
Yun Zheng’s mount?
Is this the mount that Yun Zheng got from Bambu?
If that's the case, then it's understandable.
After dispelling his doubts, Wei Wenzhong waved his hand at the messenger irritably, "Go down and rest first!"
"Please, General, send troops to support us immediately!"
The messenger asked again.
"I know! Get down!"
Wei Wenzhong roared and tried hard to stay calm.
Due to Wei Wenzhong's power, the messenger finally retreated.
"General, what are you waiting for?"
"If we don't send troops to support us, it will be too late!"
"Yes! The forces of Suqu and Shuofang are definitely not enough to stop Beihuan's 40,000 elite cavalry!"
"General..."
Seeing that Wei Wenzhong had not yet ordered troops to support, the generals became extremely anxious.
"Support, how to support?"
Wei Wenzhong suddenly shouted, "Do you think I don't want to support you? We are more than 300 miles away from the Death Valley! Will it be in time for our army to arrive? Do you think Beihuan sent 40,000 troops through the Death Valley just for Suqu and Shuofang? Mayi! Their main target must be Mayi!"
The generals' voices stopped abruptly, but their faces became even more panicked.
Mayi!
yes!
Beihuan must also want to raid Mayi.
Beihuan is short of food, so they must want to get the grain and fodder stored by Dagan in Mayi.
Even if they burned the food and grass in Mayi, the Northern Army would still face a devastating disaster.
Mayi, we must not lose anything!
"It's too late to reinforce Death Valley!"
Wei Wenzhong growled murderously: "The most urgent task is to protect Mayi!"
