C1751 Bury the Thunder
However, even though there were more than two hundred thousand troops gathered in this county, other than Huang Feng and Bai Xiaorou, they did not have much confidence. Their hearts were very nervous.
One had to know that they were about to face the army of over 600 thousand troops from the Song and Liao Empires! Normally, even if they were facing the Song Dynasty alone, they were facing an army of one to one. Furthermore, even if they were to face the ___ alone, they might not be able to defeat them. This time, there was the Liao Army, which was stronger and more ferocious than the Song Dynasty. Moreover, the number of people here was three times their number!
How were they going to fight this war? Most people could not see any hope, and only the thirty thousand troops that followed Huang Feng to the border were left. They still had some confidence in Huang Feng. After all, Huang Feng had already won a battle with them. And they were facing the Liao Army.
However, they only had a little bit of confidence in Huang Feng. In fact, they were still worried and confused. One should know that... The fact that they were able to defeat the Liao Army the last time was partly due to the fact that the Liao Army had underestimated their enemy. But this time, it was different. The Liao Army had already conquered the Song Dynasty. They didn't have much to worry about now. Furthermore... Regarding Huang Feng... He had also come to West Xia with the intention of revenge. After learning from their mistakes, they would at least be more cautious. Defeating them would not be an easy task.
Because of this, the atmosphere in the army of two hundred thousand was not very good. Some of the soldiers were already thinking if they should find an opportunity to escape.
However, before they set out for battle, Li Qinglou had already made it clear. Anyone who escaped in the face of battle would be killed without mercy. Furthermore, ， it would also implicate their families, which was why these soldiers who were almost scared out of their wits by the Song Liao Allied Army... For the time being, it had stabilized.
However, since they were scared out of their wits and had the thought of escaping, even if they were forced to stay, no one dared to say how much combat strength they would be able to display on the battlefield.
"This battle is a bit difficult." Bai Xiaorou said to Huang Feng. At this time, the two of them were standing on the city wall of the county. Previously, there would often be friction between Song Dynasty and West Xia at the border. Because of this, the city wall at the border was tall enough. It was strong enough. Moreover, some of the defensive facilities were still considered complete. This could be considered the luckiest of the unfortunate.
"It is indeed difficult to fight. Those fellows were all scared." Huang Feng smiled and said, "Actually, this can't be blamed on them. If I knew one of them, I guess they had similar thoughts. I don't see any hope of winning. They want to escape. "
"However." Huang Feng paused for a second and continued, "But, with the Storage Box, things will naturally be different. This time, I plan to properly greet these Song Liao Allied Army."
After saying that, Huang Feng looked at Bai Xiaorou and said, "Tonight, I will bring some people out for a while."
"En." Bai Xiaorou nodded and did not ask any more questions. She thought that Huang Feng was also preparing to go out.
At night, Huang Feng led thousands of people out of the city. As for where to go and what to do, Huang Feng did not tell these people. He just let them follow him.
Although those soldiers were puzzled, it was not good to ask anything. Huang Feng was quite famous now, and everyone knew about him. Why did Song Liao join forces to attack West Xia? It was all because Huang Feng had killed the commander of Liao Army. As well as the Emperor of Song Dynasty, these two weren't ordinary people. There must be a lot of guards around them, but Huang Feng was able to kill these two men. This was enough to show how powerful Huang Feng was.
As for the identity of Huang Feng's son-in-law, at this moment, it seemed insignificant. However, everyone knew that Li Qinglou was very protective of Huang Feng. If they dared to disobey Huang Feng's words, they would have to wait for them. It would definitely not be a good result.
Everyone continued to walk east, causing them to feel somewhat worried. After all, Song Liao's alliance army was already on their way here. They could run into them at any time. No one knew where their vanguard army was. If they ran into them, none of them would be able to return.
Fortunately, Huang Feng did not lead them forward to seek death. Instead, he stopped near a mountain path.
"You guys wait for me here. I will call you guys over later. You guys can come back later." Huang Feng said to everyone. Naturally, none of them dared to disobey him.
Huang Feng continued to walk forward for a while, and then made sure that the people behind him couldn't see him anymore. Only then did he take out the mine he had exchanged for from the Storage Ring. After the quantity was not enough, he continued to exchange for more from the Storage Box. This time, in order to defeat the Song Liao Allied Army, Huang Feng had gone all out. He was ready to set up a mine formation.
The last time he fought with the Liao Army, the mine formation had achieved a remarkable result. It had prevented the Liao Army from continuing to attack the city. Because of this, eat! Here we go. Huang Feng, who had tasted the sweetness, was still preparing to use the Earth Thunder Formation this time. Although Huang Feng also knew that those people were definitely a little wary this time. It was just that this kind of thing, Earth Thunder, had never appeared in this world before. Therefore, even if they were wary of the mine, they were still wary of it. They didn't understand that he could still toy with them to death.
"Alright, all of you come over." After Huang Feng took out enough mines, he asked the one thousand soldiers to come over.
After the soldiers came over, Huang Feng pointed to the pair of mines and said, "Bury these things. I will do a demonstration first, and then they will bury them according to my method."
Many of the 1000 people Huang Feng brought this time were the ones who participated in the battle against the Liao Kingdom last time. There were even some who had personally buried the mines. And because of this... When they saw the mines again, many people's faces... They were all excited.
They had witnessed the result of the mine with their own eyes. That was pretty good. However, they didn't see Huang Feng bring this thing with him this time. They were still a little disappointed. They never thought that there would be so many things hidden here.
Of course, they didn't know that these mines weren't hidden here by Huang Feng. They were just exchanged by him.
As for the people who saw the mines for the first time, they stared at the black thing, not knowing what it was.
Huang Feng took out a mine and dug a hole in the ground. Then, he buried it, while the others watched seriously. Huang Feng's movements were very careful, even though he had a very deep inner energy. If he was hit by this thing, he would probably be injured.
With Huang Feng's imitation, the others also began to bury the mines one by one. This time, the mines were the kind that did not have a long guiding line. As long as someone stepped on it, it would explode. Therefore, everyone was exceptionally careful.
It was not the first time they had buried the mines. Therefore, Huang Feng had some insights. He knew how to bury it in order to achieve the greatest effect. Therefore, he watched everyone's actions from the side. He also gave instructions on where to bury the mines.
After working for the whole night, this group of people finally buried the mines. Huang Feng looked at them with satisfaction, then he left with his people and returned to the city.
In the next two days, Huang Feng would bring different people out every night to bury the mines in different places.
In fact, Huang Feng also wanted to exchange for some guns. However, that gun was much more expensive than a mine. Moreover, the price of bullets was also expensive, even if Huang Feng had a lot of money. If the war ended... It might take away more than half of their assets. It was not worth it.
Because of this, the mine became Huang Feng's first choice.
On the third day, everyone finally received the news of the Song Liao Allied Army. They had gotten close to this place.
At this time, near the border of West Xia, there were two long troops marching. The speed of their march was not fast, but the two troops. They had a murderous look on their faces, and the other one did not seem to have high morale.
The soldiers of Song Dynasty were naturally the ones with low morale. Although they were cooperating with Liao Army now, or even on the way, they would even try to please the Liao Army, but they were feeling very depressed in their hearts. After all, they had just been defeated by them. Furthermore, the Imperial Court had paid a great price for it. It was only after the war on the battlefield had been quelled that the soldiers felt that... It was obvious that they would not be able to hold back their humiliation.
On the other hand, Liao Army was different. Their morale was high and they did not put West Xia in their eyes. Previously, Song Dynasty had been defeated by them. A mere West Xia could not even defeat Song Dynasty, let alone them.
Although the army of Western Xia had defeated fifty thousand of their armies, however... The hundreds of thousands of soldiers of Liao Army didn't think that the army of Western Xia could defeat them. With the strength of the entire Western Xia, how many soldiers could there be? Furthermore, they had defeated their comrades before. Perhaps they were playing some kind of trick.
And the son-in-law of the Western Xia had killed their commander. This was a very shameful matter, and they had to make West Xia pay the price.
"General Gu li, after crossing the mountain in front of us, we will reach the border of Western Xia. The spies have come to report that the son-in-law of Western Xia is that Huang Feng. He is leading an army of two hundred thousand soldiers to guard the border, waiting for us. " The general of Song Dynasty said to the temporary commander of Liao Army, although the army of Song Dynasty was larger. However, during the war, the soldiers of the Song Dynasty would still listen to the orders of the Liao Army. It was their fault for not being able to defeat the enemy. No matter how many people there were, they had no right to speak.
