Chapter 1104 Victory

Zhou Guo looked at the chaotic valley with fear and trepidation, hearing the shouts and screams, and hesitated whether to go forward to help. But when she thought of what Lao Zheng had told her, she felt that it would be of no use if she went, after all, two fists could not beat four hands.

She watched as the people who were standing fell down one by one, blood splattered everywhere, some had their heads flying off, some had their arms broken, some had their thighs missing, and some had their stomachs burst open...

The blood splashed on his face, hot.

Dashu and Xiaoshu had never seen such a scene before, and they vomited immediately.

Zhou Guo had seen a bit of the world after all. He held the big knife tightly in his hand, his mind was working fast, so how could he have the mood to vomit?

Fortunately, there were not many enemies in this wave, only about two thousand, and they were quickly defeated. The young general showed no mercy and captured all the remaining enemies alive.

"This is a special period. We cannot expose our whereabouts. If we find the general, we cannot afford any risk. We cannot keep any of these people."

Zhou Guo nodded, "I know."

You must never be soft-hearted when you need to be ruthless, otherwise there will be endless troubles.

But after this wave, the ones following behind were like dog-skin plasters, which could not be shaken off and would come up to take a bite from time to time.

After a few days, they lost their way and became separated from the main force in the rear.

Although it wasn't to the point of being in a mess, it wasn't at ease either.

Whenever Zhou Guo arrived at a place, he would take out the map and mark the location.

At this time, the young general didn't ask where to find the general. There were so many enemies following behind him. It would be terrible if the general was really found.

Thinking clearly, in the evening of that day, after repelling the enemy once again, he said to Zhou Guo: "Master, this won't work. We must deal with this group of people. There are not many of them, at most 30,000. We have 10,000 people, which is enough."

Zhou Guo reminded: "General, we don't have ten thousand left."

Although they killed a lot of enemies these days, they also suffered casualties.

No matter how powerful Xu's army is, they are still mortals and cannot withstand the sharp edge of the blade.

The young general said fearlessly: "What's there to be afraid of? This is just in the forest. If it were on the battlefield, I would kill them all without leaving a single piece of armor."

He began to make arrangements, opened the map, pointed to a valley between two mountains and said, "Here, the terrain here is high, it's the most suitable for an ambush. We can kill them by surprise. These people are so annoying."

Zhou Guo asked: "Can they come over if it's so obvious?"

Even a blind man can see that this is the easiest place to be ambushed. They are not fools to be fooled, right?

The general smiled and said, "I have figured it out in the past two days. I don't know who the leader is. He relies on his large numbers to look down on us. He is very arrogant and greedy for merit. Just wait and see. I will show them a flaw and they will definitely fall for it! Young Master, you watch from behind and I will bring you the enemy general's head!"

Zhou Guo didn't say anything. What did she want the enemy's head for?

It’s not a treasure.

She took her people and went up the mountain in advance.

Several people reached another high ground and looked down at the chaotic battlefield.

There was a lot of shouting and killing, white knives were used in and red knives were used out, and the people who were chatting and laughing the moment before were silent the next moment.

People fell one after another. It was not like Zhou Guo had never killed anyone before, but at this moment he finally realized that the battlefield was different.

All her previous scenes were small ones.

The group watched the fierce battle on the hill quietly.

About half an hour later, their side was defeated, and the remaining people retreated into the canyon in a panic, abandoning their weapons and armor, even their flags and shoes.

All I heard was a loud laugh coming from the other side, and someone said contemptuously: "Xu's Army?? They are just so-so!! Charge! Catch up with them, kill them and you will be the invincible Xu's Army!"

"Kill!!!"

The people on the opposite side chased after him, rushing forward roaring.

Dashu whispered, "Really? It's so easy to lure people here?"

Zhou Guo said: "It's not easy. Don't forget, the two sides fought for half an hour, and many people were killed and injured during this half hour."

It’s not without cost. If you don’t persist long enough, others won’t believe it.

Several bodyguards nodded, eager to try. If Zhou Guo hadn't been around, they would have gone into battle.

This valley is separated by two hills.

The imperial army, greedy for merit, lost their minds and just charged forward. By the time they reacted, it was too late. The elite troops had already fallen into the canyon, their retreat was cut off, and they were surrounded.

Before they could react.

With the young general's shout, "Fire!"

A volley of arrows caught the enemy off guard.

Screams continued to be heard. Zhou Guo watched those living people fall down one after another, and he trembled along with them.

"rush!"

Xu's army rushed down like an arrow, and there was no sound except the sound of footsteps.

In such a wide canyon area, they are the ghosts from hell, coming specifically to reap human lives.

With a flick of the knife, a head fell off.

This is probably the true strength of Xu’s army.

Zhou Guo felt a chill in his neck as he watched. In the wide area, the fighting power was not at the same level.

No wonder Xu’s army was able to guard the border for so many years.

The enemy general shouted in panic to retreat, but found that he could not retreat no matter what, as there were people everywhere.

In desperation, one can only surrender.

But at this time, surrender is useless.

An hour later, the battle was over.

Zhou Guo ran down and said to the young general, "You are amazing! You predicted their actions exactly."

The young general laughed, "What's that? In our Xu's army, everyone knows how to do this."

Zhou Guo still thought it was amazing.

Clean up the battlefield, count the number of people, and put all the captured food into pockets.

More than 1,800 of our own people were killed or wounded, and all of the 20,000 elite troops of the enemy who rushed up were wiped out.

After the battlefield was cleared, a group of people immediately changed positions to prevent attacks from enemies behind them. They had just experienced a big battle and were afraid that they could not afford to continue wasting time.

Zhou Guo said: "General, isn't it said that this group of people totaled more than 30,000 people, and this elite force was wiped out by us, so the remaining more than 10,000 people are not worth mentioning?"

The general said cheerfully, "That's true, but we should still be careful. After all, it's better to avoid casualties if possible."

Zhou Guo nodded, not noticing the flash of worry in the young general's eyes.

All in all, they have been here for more than half a month. The dry food they brought with them was enough to last for half a month, and there was not much left. But after they were cut off from the rear, they fought with the enemy from time to time and seized some spoils, so they could hold on. If they continued to move forward, they would probably only be able to eat grass roots and tree bark.

a few days later.

Zhou Guo looked at the map in his hand, then looked at his current location, his brows furrowed tightly.
