Chapter 1855: The Changing Battlefield
The valley was littered with corpses and blood flowed like a river.
Heavy snow fell, and the white snow and bright red blood instantly merged into one, forming blood-red mud on the ground, like a melted blood river.
People kept falling down, and people kept stepping through the river of blood.
But the battle has not stopped.
The ground was already filled with corpses, and the remaining people were all covered in blood and wounds, but they were still waving their swords and continuing to kill.
Wu Lun waved the big knife in his hand and kept shouting.
"Kill them, kill them!"
"As long as you kill them, everyone will be rewarded handsomely tonight!"
The bandits, who had been fighting for a long time, were a little tired at this time, but after hearing these words, they excitedly rushed forward again.
All the people, including the ambush troops at the other end of the valley, rushed out after the horn sounded, and engaged in a melee with the imperial troops. Soon, only a small number of the troops brought by Wu Ding were left, and they were surrounded by them.
These people had been fighting bloody battles for who knows how long. Their faces and bodies were covered in blood, which kept dripping down their wounds and onto the ground, mixing with the mud. It was impossible to tell whose blood it was.
And at this moment, it seems to have come to an end.
They couldn't even lift the swords in their hands and could only hold on to them to support their weakened bodies, watching as the bandits gradually surrounded them.
There was despair in the eyes of these people.
Uren laughed wildly.
"Hahahaha, so what if it's Yan Country, so what if it's the Emperor?"
"Or are you not our defeated opponent?"
"Come here, capture them all, cut off their heads and throw them out to the Emperor of Yan Nation to see. Let's see if they dare to come to our Thermidor Bay and act so presumptuously again in the future. Hahahaha."
Hearing him say this, the bandits around him also laughed.
Laughter echoed across the valley.
However, just as they were laughing wildly, suddenly, there seemed to be some other sounds in the laughter, especially on the rugged mountain road, it seemed as if there was a fire again, casting the shadows of those rugged rocks on the ground, as if countless monsters were rolling.
Wu Lun frowned.
What is that?
However, before he could even ask anyone to go over and take a look, the lights and shadows were approaching at an unimaginable speed, and in an instant, they were right before his eyes.
He opened his eyes wide and saw that it was an arrow with fire!
The arrows hit the rocks on both sides and immediately exploded with a bang, sparks flying everywhere, instantly illuminating the valley into daylight.
Immediately afterwards, a roar was heard from the source of the flaming arrow.
"Kill!"
Upon hearing the sound, Ulun and the others became busy for a moment, and then they saw a large army rushing in from the other end of the valley!
That is——
They are soldiers from Shazhouwei!
The one leading the troops and running in the front was Yang Dai!
Wu Lun opened his eyes wide. He and the people around him couldn't believe that at this time, another team came to attack.
The clothes of these people were different from those Wu Ding had just brought in to kill. They were wearing armor and looked mighty and strong. When they rushed in with torches in their hands, they were like a nimble tiger appearing on this exhausted battlefield.
In an instant, the momentum was so overwhelming that it almost overwhelmed everyone!
Suddenly, the bandits were stunned with fear.
It also gave a shot of confidence to the soldiers who were almost defeated. They were instantly filled with strength, and the hope of life made them grip the swords in their hands again!
They also shouted loudly -
"Kill them!"
"Let these sand bandits see how powerful we are!"
"We must not lose face and face here!"
The troops on both sides rose up together and rushed towards Wu Lun's troops.
In an instant, the entire battle situation was reversed.
Wu Lun's mind was in a mess, but he immediately understood that the group of people just now were not from Shazhou Guards at all, but were following the emperor's orders. They came in just to lure out the ambushes lying in ambush on both sides. Only when all the ambushes appeared would the court's troops officially appear.
Now, it's time for them to kill everyone!
Wu Lun hurriedly led his confidants to fight all the way, but at this time, they had been fighting for most of the night. Wu Ding's troops were exhausted, and they were already very sleepy. Especially when they saw another group of people from the court rushing in, they were all frightened.
When I started to act, I couldn't help but feel a little soft-handed.
Once you feel weak in your heart, you will suffer defeat at every step.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Wu Lun suddenly remembered something and hurriedly said, "Where is Ji Santing? Where is Ji Santing?"
When everyone heard this, they hurriedly looked around -
Where is Ji Santing?
Before, after the boulder was blown away, their men launched the first wave of attack with arrows, and then killed them down, but now, his figure was completely nowhere to be seen.
What about others?
Wu Lun looked around, and finally, when he turned back, he saw several figures flashing in the distant valley.
The firelight reflected that familiar face.
It’s Ji Santing.
He was delighted and hurriedly wanted to shout a greeting, but before he could utter a word, he saw the figure turn around coldly and disappear into the night in an instant.
“……!”
Wu Lun was completely stunned.
Ji Santing actually retreated!
He actually left them here and retreated with his men!
"damn it!"
Wu Lun understood immediately and could not help but curse: "This traitorous bastard!"
Hu Saihei was right. Ji Sanding had indeed changed his mind. He just came to this place for show and had no determination to stick to this path!
It seems that they all misunderstood Jiang Qu.
The news he brought back was correct. The emperor had indeed chosen this road as the main direction of attack, so he arranged two groups of people to come here to break through.
It's a pity that I sent some Houthis to guard that side.
Now then—
No, we have to retreat!
As long as they retreat, they will not lose. The terrain inside the Thermidor Crescent is complicated, and it is impossible for these imperial troops to enter and exit freely. As long as they can meet up with Housaihei's troops, they can take advantage of the terrain and kill all the imperial troops without leaving a single survivor.
No matter how many people come, they will all be buried in the Hot Moon Crescent!
Thinking of this, Wu Lun gritted his teeth and shouted again: "Stop fighting, retreat quickly, retreat!"
Hearing his voice, the sand bandits who were already exhausted from dealing with the situation hurriedly prepared to evacuate.
But at this moment, Ji Tong beside him turned around and looked in the direction of the camp, a look of horror appeared on his face, and said to him: "Brother, look--!"
