Chapter 3303: Winning this battle is difficult
The nights in the wilderness are always silent. Sometimes, it is so quiet that even the sound of the wind cannot be heard.
But this night was destined to be a restless night.
Not only was it not peaceful, the entire wasteland was like a boiling pot. The roars of people and the neighing of horses mixed together, resounding through the sky and even shaking the ground.
Chen Zixiao was riding on horseback, and he pierced the chest of a cavalryman who was charging towards him with a spear. The man screamed and was lifted up before he could even struggle. Blood spurted out of his mouth, splashing all over the face of the soldier who was rushing up behind him.
Those people were overwhelmed by the bloody smell and were frightened for a moment and stood still.
Chen Zixiao's face was gloomy. He picked up the man on the long spear and swung it forward with force. Suddenly, the corpse was thrown out like a broken sack, and it hit the soldiers directly. Immediately, screams were heard. Several people were frightened and almost went crazy. They tried their best to pull the corpse off their bodies and were about to escape. Chen Zixiao's horse had already rushed in front of them and stepped them directly into the mud full of blood.
His fierce and ferocious appearance frightened the people around him so much that no one dared to get close to him for a while.
Chen Zixiao wiped the blood off his face and looked around.
This battle had been going on for more than two hours. In the absence of sunlight and with the torches long extinguished, many people could no longer tell who was around them and were left with only the instinct to kill. However, judging from the fact that he still remained on horseback and looked up from above, the soldiers of Yan State were still advancing.
The momentum is good!
However, after fighting for more than two hours, the soldiers were indeed a little tired.
There were even some people whose swords were blunt, so they simply grabbed the enemy's necks and pressed them into the blood and mud, rolling and biting them, just like fighting wild beasts.
Chen Zixiao, who saw this scene, although it was not the first time he led troops to war and he had killed many enemy soldiers before, but at this moment, he also showed some confusion in his eyes and looked towards the direction of the altar.
Although it was pitch dark at this time and the altar was very far away from them, it was impossible to see it.
On the battlefield, this emotion is very subtle.
Once the commander showed even a hint of fatigue, it would spread like a plague, and the soldiers around him would also become somewhat sluggish. Meanwhile, Bayin and Wulihan, both seasoned warriors, seized the opportunity and fought their way out of the encirclement, their blood-soaked swords raised as they roared, "Charge!"
When the soldiers of the Dian Kingdom saw this, they immediately gathered their strength and rushed towards this side.
The situation on the battlefield is also very delicate. Sometimes, one side has the upper hand, but once the other side opens a gap, it may affect the entire line. When Bayin and Ulihan led their elite troops to charge back here, the Yan soldiers in this area also began to retreat subconsciously, and with this retreat, the surrounding soldiers also began to retreat.
Oh no!
Seeing this, Chen Zixiao knew something was wrong.
He waved the long spear in his hand and shouted desperately for everyone not to retreat, but the enemy rushed over in an overwhelming manner, and the soldiers here were already a little tired, so he could hardly hold on.
At this moment, a drumbeat sounded behind him.
Everyone was a little tired, even numb from killing people. Then the sound of the drums seemed to inject a surge of strength into their hearts, and everyone subconsciously looked back.
It was pitch black all around and I couldn't see anything.
Although they couldn't see it, they could hear the sound of horses' hooves, encouraged by the beating of drums, galloping towards their battlefield.
Before everyone could figure out what was going on, they felt a gust of wind blowing and a group of cavalry came rushing towards them. However, because it was late at night and dark, no one could see clearly. They only felt a black shadow coming towards them and directly swallowed up the few soldiers of the Dian Kingdom who were rushing in the front.
That is——
Chen Zixiao was startled. He saw a man in the dark shadow at the front shouting, "Master Chen!"
It’s Fang Buyuan, the commander-in-chief of the Embroidered Uniform Guard!
He had been sent by Zhu Feng to the vicinity of the altar to search for the whereabouts of Han King Zhu Chengjun, but there had been no news. After the war broke out here, he naturally stopped paying attention to their movements. However, he did not expect that the emperor would actually order the Jinyiwei to rush up at this time.
Although the number of Jinyiwei was small, each of them was an elite who had experienced hundreds of battles. They might not be good at cavalry charges, but at this time, the battle had been going on for more than two hours, and most of the soldiers on the battlefield were exhausted. Their sudden rush forward undoubtedly gave great encouragement to the soldiers of Yan State. Although their number was not large, under the cover of night, their charge gave people a murderous feeling, as if a large army was coming.
As a result, even the extremely ferocious Bayin was shocked.
Seeing the opponent's momentum weaken, Chen Zixiao immediately seized the opportunity, raised his spear high and shouted: "Charge!"
This time, the Yan soldiers gathered their troops again, roaring and rushing forward again. Bayin refused to admit defeat and charged forward with the troops behind him. The two sides fell into a melee again.
Wulihan, who was also deeply involved in the fierce battle, felt that it would be difficult to win this battle...

"What's that sound?"
The soldier guarding the prison van seemed to have heard something as well. He frowned and looked ahead. The soldier next to him said, "Is the wind picking up?"
"No, it doesn't look like that."
This soldier was older and more cautious, and he took two cautious steps forward.
At this moment, Zhu Chengjun in the prison van suddenly shouted: "I need to pee!"
The soldier ignored him, but Zhu Chengjun kept yelling like he was playing a trick: "I need to pee, let me out to pee! I need to pee!"
As soon as he shouted, the tranquility of the night was broken and the sound just now could no longer be heard.
Maybe it's just the wind.
The two soldiers were annoyed by his noise and turned to look at him. One of them sneered, "Pee? The king has already said that if you don't tell the truth, you will die in this prison car. You still want to go out to pee? Just pee in your pants!"
The other one laughed too.
At this time, the time had come and it was time for them to change shifts. The two men ignored him and walked towards the military camp with their knives in hand.
Zhu Chengjun exhaled carefully.
Then, he opened his panicked eyes wide and looked ahead, and asked in a voice as thin as a mosquito's hum, "Who is it?"
A dark figure slowly walked out from the night.
"Your Highness."
Upon hearing this voice, Zhu Chengjun immediately opened his eyes wide in surprise: "Brother Bie Yu!?"
