Chapter 381 Life and death crisis, the black armored army arrives!
At this time, Gao Yao, who was half-crouching on the ground and looking a little embarrassed, slowly stood up. The heavy armor on his body, which was covered with dried blood, made a slight friction sound as he moved. The blood that had long been solidified on the surface of the armor seemed to have lost its stickiness at this moment, turning into countless tiny blood-red powders that fell down like a scarlet snow.
Gao Yao's eyes, full of determination and resoluteness, stared at the enemy in front of him, and his heart was not shaken by what the other party had just said. For him, the enemy's words of no more revenge were simply the biggest joke in the world! Only a fool would choose to believe such a promise made lightly. Especially after experiencing such a cruel life-and-death struggle, Gao Yao knew the complexity and sinisterness of human nature.
Although deep down, Gao Yao himself believed that the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan might not have a sufficient reason to retaliate against Lü Zhi and others, this did not mean that he would relax his vigilance or take chances. After all, it would be extremely stupid to pin his fate on the mercy of the enemy. So, no matter what, Gao Yao decided to rely on his own strength to get out of the predicament.
When Gao Yao slowly stood up, his eyes seemed to casually sweep towards the dense forest not far away. However, in fact, all of this was carefully planned by him. In this fierce battle, Gao Yao never really had the thought of seeking death. On the contrary, he had been cleverly using various opportunities to dodge and move, and gradually moved closer to the direction of the dense forest. After a long period of effort, he was now less than fifty steps away from the dense forest.
The reason why Gao Yao was so familiar with this dense forest and had a plan in mind was all thanks to the system reward and detailed map effect he had. According to the instructions on this map, as long as he successfully entered the dense forest and went less than a hundred meters into it, he would find a winding river. As long as he kept moving forward along this river, Gao Yao would be able to successfully achieve his goal of escaping.
"Yi Xiaochuan, there must be nothing wrong with calling you that, right? Since you're going to fight, don't hesitate any longer and make your move quickly! If I survive today, I will definitely destroy this Tianxing completely!" Gao Yao roared viciously with his eyes wide open.
At this moment, hearing that Gao Yao was still obsessed with destroying Tianxing at this critical moment of life and death, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his heart. The mentality that he had originally coveted Gao Yao was now gone. His face sank, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he shouted sternly: "You ignorant fellow! Come on, kill him quickly!"
For the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan, Tianxing is like the vital point of his life. As Gao Yao said, if Tianxing is damaged, he will also suffer a serious injury; if Tianxing disappears, he will certainly die. Therefore, Tianxing has undoubtedly become the fatal weakness of the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan.
Gao Yao initially believed that the Tianxing was the masterpiece of Qin Shi Huang. After all, this mausoleum was the resting place of Qin Shi Huang after his death. After thousands of years, it still remained intact and untouched. This shows how much Qin Shi Huang valued his mausoleum. Gao Yao sent his men to try to sneak into the mausoleum and successfully take out the treasures. It is conceivable how difficult it was.
What really made Gao Yao suspicious was the period from the death of Qin Shi Huang to his burial. What was incredible was that the defense of the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum had not weakened, but had increased day by day. Gao Yao could not help but wonder: everything should have a limit, how could it be so exaggerated? Such a tight defense was really beyond common sense.
It was not until the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan showed up and confidently revealed to Gao Yao that Tianxing was about to explode that Gao Yao connected the two things in a flash.
Following the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan's loud shout, the archers of the Northern Border Army moved at the news, and they all drew their bows and arrows. The cold arrows instantly locked onto Gao Yao.
Gao Yao saw this, his face suddenly tensed, his eyebrows knitted tightly. He knew very well that this situation was extremely dangerous. If he could not avoid this fierce attack, it would be impossible to escape safely. At this moment, there was no way to retreat, and the only way to survive was to fight to the death!
Just as the crossbowmen of the Northern Border Army were about to release their arrows, suddenly, a deafening and rapid sound of horse hooves resounded through the sky, like a violent storm rushing from the side and rear. At the same time, billowing smoke and dust also swept over the sky, and the scene was so spectacular!
At this sudden moment, the scene before their eyes made all the soldiers of the Northern Border Army stunned. The large number of cavalrymen that surged like a tide, as if emerging from underground, was beyond the imagination of everyone present.
"Kong Gang is here. Anyone who dares to touch a hair of our master will be killed without a burial place!" The leading man shouted angrily, and his voice was like thunder, making people's eardrums buzz.
Immediately afterwards, shouts of "Kill! Kill! Kill!" resounded through the sky, interweaving with the sound of horse hooves, creating a terrifying momentum.
Following this roar, Kong Gang was seen leading the way, leading the endless black-armored army behind him. They were like a black torrent, rushing towards the Northern Border Army with overwhelming force. Wherever they went, dust flew up, and the earth seemed to tremble.
Faced with such a terrifying battle, the Northern Army immediately fell into panic. The soldiers looked at each other with deep fear in their eyes.
"Damn it! What on earth is going on? Why did these black-armored soldiers appear at this time?" The mysterious Yi Xiaochuan couldn't help but exclaimed.
The mysterious Yi Xiaochuan's heart sank suddenly when he saw the newcomer. He widened his eyes with an expression of disbelief. He never expected that at this critical moment, the black-armored army under Gao Yao would suddenly appear. This completely disrupted his original plan and deployment, leaving him at a loss for a moment, with no plan to deal with it.
At this point, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan knew that he could not sit and wait for death. The only thing he could do now was to kill Gao Yao first, perhaps there would be a chance of turning things around. So, he gritted his teeth, waved the long sword in his hand, and shouted hoarsely: "All soldiers, listen to my order, quickly kill Gao Yao"
At the same time as the Black Armored Army appeared, Gao Yao showed his amazing courage and determination. He stared at the nearest Northern Army team with a sharp gaze, and rushed over without hesitation like a flash of lightning.
Several sharp arrows flew through the air, but Gao Yao was not afraid at all and used his body to block them. Although he was wounded in many places and his robe was stained with blood, he still gritted his teeth and bravely rushed forward into the crowd of the Northern Army, which was equivalent to using the Northern Army as a shield for himself, forcing the other side to not use a large number of arrows to attack again.
Seeing this, the Northern Border Army was immediately caught in a dilemma. On the one hand, they were worried about accidentally hurting their own people, and on the other hand, they were afraid of the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan's military orders. After all, when the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan ordered to shoot just now, those arrows actually shot at their own soldiers, which made everyone feel guilty. Now facing Gao Yao who was so close and trapped in the enemy's camp, it was really hard for them to make up their minds to shoot again.
Even under the strict military order of the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan, the soldiers' shooting became weak and inaccurate. The arrows missed their targets and posed almost no real threat to Gao Yao.
Mysterious Yi Xiaochuan was extremely anxious, watching Gao Yao approaching step by step, but he was powerless. He wanted to personally take charge of the battle and personally solve this serious problem in front of him. At this moment, his own condition was extremely bad. The injury was too serious, and even with the help of Tianxing, it was impossible for him to recover instantly.
"Major General, let's retreat quickly! Look at the enemy troops coming like a tide, the number is frightening! If we are a step later, once they surround us, we will be unable to escape!" At this time, the anxious soldiers could no longer suppress their panic, and tried their best to persuade the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan.
Facing the overwhelming and aggressive enemy troops, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan also experienced a fierce struggle and entanglement in his heart. He knew that the battle situation was extremely unfavorable to his side, but he was unwilling to give up so easily. However, after a brief weighing of the pros and cons, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan finally gritted his teeth and shouted resolutely, as if he had made up his mind: "Withdraw!"
Following Yi Xiaochuan's decisive order, the Northern Army immediately took action and began a large-scale retreat. Thousands of soldiers quickly assembled into a team, closely surrounding Yi Xiaochuan, forming a solid line of defense, fully protecting the young general to safely evacuate the battlefield. At the same time, the Northern Army soldiers who were originally besieging Gaoyao also received the order to retreat, turned their horses around, and quickly ran to the rear.
Mysterious Yi Xiaochuan knew that there was no way to capture Gao Yao. It was still possible to kill Gao Yao at all costs, but the army's morale was gone. If Mysterious Yi Xiaochuan was not there, it would be difficult for the Northern Border Army to obey orders and kill Gao Yao at all costs. If they stayed, even if they succeeded in killing Gao Yao, given Mysterious Yi Xiaochuan's current condition, the angry Black Armor Army would be able to cut him into pieces.
Mysterious Yi Xiaochuan himself is very clear that immortality is true, but immortality is really a lie. With the help of the power of the stars, it is true that mysterious Yi Xiaochuan can gain a strong recovery ability, but he will still die if his head is cut off. He has lived for thousands of years, so how could mysterious Yi Xiaochuan be willing to die in exchange for Gao Yao?
