Chapter 971, Passive Skill

To the north of the Da Niu Mountain line, the expeditionary corps left behind the majority of their troops to hold Wang back on the defense line, while the remaining expeditionary corps began to retreat to the north, looking like they intended to retreat directly back to the northern part of the grassland.

Those expeditionary corps that stayed behind didn’t get discouraged and fight negatively just because the main force retreated, instead, they fought a little more ferociously.

In the expeditionary army, if the younger brother was in the army at the same time as the older brother, the younger brother retreated with the army.

In the expeditionary army, if the younger brother and the older brother were in the army at the same time, the younger brother retreated with the army.

In the Central Plains, it was generally rare to see fathers and sons in the army at the same time, but this was very common in the expeditionary corps.

Therefore, when the main force of the Expeditionary Corps retreated, those who stayed in their positions didn’t just surrender, instead they were more frantic than ever, as they wanted to buy time for their friends and family.

The Expeditionary Corps is not a cold and heartless villain character in the teahouse story, they are also flesh and blood people, because the environment in the north is bad so they went south, in fact, for the Expeditionary Corps they are not wrong.

Perhaps there is no such thing as absolute justice in this world, and wolves eating sheep is a matter of natural selection.

But no matter what, when the Expeditionary Corps comes to the Central Plains next time, the people of the Central Plains will still take up arms to drive out all foreign enemies, which is the justice of the nation.

But the Expeditionary Corps should not have a chance, because Yan Liuyuan was going to take this opportunity to become the new king of the North, not just the king of the grasslands, but the new king of the entire North.

At this moment, the evacuated expeditionary corps was temporarily stationed for rest, simply setting up pots and fires for cooking.

The general of the expeditionary corps was draped in a black cloak, the huge axe in both hands leaning on the ground.

He stood silently at the edge of the camp looking to the south, he seemed to be able to imagine how grueling the battle was for his soldiers in the Great Ox Mountain, if he was still a soldier, he would be willing to stay there and die in battle.

But he was a general, he had no choice.

An adjutant at the side said, “General, the meal is ready, go eat.”

Before the Expeditionary Corps traveled south, they used to sun dry a large amount of mutton into jerky, then grind it into meat powder, and then put it all into a closed bag.

By the time they were on the march, those sun-dried mutton would swell to ten times its size once cooked in a pot, and a football-sized bag of mutton would be enough for ten soldiers to eat for a month.

Now, however, the meat was all gone, and only some roughage remained.

The price the expeditionary corps had paid in this war was far heavier than imagined.

The adjutant saw that the general was hesitant to speak, so he spoke again, “General ……”

General point suddenly said, “We will come back again, now I already understand how powerful the Central Plains people are, but they are not ironclad, when we come back again ……”

As he spoke, the whine of a steam train actually suddenly sounded in the distance.

The general stopped his words, only to see the distant horizon there is a steam train quickly approaching over, in the vast wilderness, the steam train looks a little lonely, like a lone knight killing into the enemy camp.

The steam train’s chimney spewed out black smoke, and it faced tens of thousands of expeditionary corps without the slightest intention to retreat, as if it wanted to run headlong into the middle of the expeditionary corps.

The whimpering sound was like the sound of a lilting horn.

The adjutant hurriedly said, “General, why don’t you take shelter first?”

However, the general shook his head and said calmly, “The Central Plains people can’t hurt me yet, go inform the generals and prepare for a counterattack.”

At this time Wang’s main force must still be dragged in Da Niu Mountain, so even if there were any Central Plains people chasing after them, they must be a minority.

On this kind of plain terrain, it was the pride of the Expeditionary Corps that they were not yet so scared by a handful of Central Plainsmen that they were holding their heads in their hands.

Despite the defeat, they couldn’t let the Central Plains people take the last bit of courage out of them.

The general stood right in front of the camp, waiting for the soldiers behind himself to rally.

When the steam train came a little closer, the general’s keen hearing also heard noisy human voices inside the car, as if there were thousands of soldiers and horses stuffed inside that narrow steam train.

Moreover, the people in that car were yelling, “Just that one standing at the side of the barracks pretending to be a man of honor, yes, aim at him!”

“Yes, he’s still standing straight after losing the battle, and he doesn’t hide when he sees us, so fuck him!”

“Fuck him and we’re done!”

“Gather fire! Gather fire!”

“Let’s get him, see what he can do, he’s still not running when he sees us coming!”

The general’s face was as heavy as water, his hands gripped the giant axe in his hands, ready to use this giant axe to directly split the steam train coming in front of him!

Just in a flash, the steam train was originally heading straight towards the expeditionary regiment, but when it traveled to a place that was still 400 meters away from the expeditionary regiment, it suddenly turned around and turned towards the west.

The general froze for a moment, he was still waiting for the steam train to rush over, but he didn’t expect the other party to look like they were going to run away?

The Expeditionary Corps could only see the front of the train, but now, the entire steam train looked like it was straddling in front of them.

Immediately after that, only to see that a window, out of a black hole of the muzzle of the gun, those gun bars in the window on the frame out of the window, the whole train looks like a hedgehog like.

And those black holes behind the muzzle, is a cat in the body of the Northwest Army generals, the whole train is stuffed with people, from the outside looking at the feeling that the car is full of people in a great ……

There are still people in the car shouting: “See that standing still did not, give me mutiny him!”

This makes the general also a little surprised, he originally thought that the other side is to rush into their formation, but I did not expect the other side from the beginning is not ready and expeditionary corps frontal combat, but played a guerrilla.

Steam train’s powerful maneuverability was shown to the fullest, the huge body shifted freely on the battlefield, as if the cavalry walked and shot in front of the formation.

Bullets poured in like a downpour, the rain curtain was sharp and powerful, washing away all the targets they could shoot at.

Immediately, some soldiers on the Expeditionary Corps side raised their shields in front of the general to prevent him from being shot.

But in this instant, P5092 was on the vehicle and suddenly ordered the 2nd Regiment to bring out all twelve remaining Cloudbursts.

With a roar, the shoulder-mounted launcher erupted into a huge plume of smoke, and the twelve cloudburst bombs crashed into the Expeditionary Regiment’s barracks in a flash of lightning.

When the cloudburst bombs reached the target, the orange-red fire flashed away, followed by black smoke surging out, high temperature and high pressure can destroy almost everything.

The one-man cloudburst bomb itself was an epoch-making product of one-man combat, and even a place like Fortress 178, which was known for its military industry, might not dare to say that it could really reach the power of the pre-cataclysmic period.

However, it was also enough to kill the barbarians.

In the carriage, everyone coughed from the nitrous smoke blasted out by the firing of the man-portable cloudburst bomb: “Grass, choking me to death!”

“Cut the crap, hurry up and finish the bullets!”

The 6th Combat Brigade drove past the Expeditionary Corps camp at a distance of more than 400 meters, and everyone was ready to retreat after they finished their ammunition this time.

But before they could get far, they heard shouts erupt from the Expeditionary Corps camp, “General! They blew up the general! Avenge the General!”

Hearing this loud shout, even Ren Xiaosu in the steam train was confused for a moment, “Is it so evil, did Six Yuan make another wish, or do I have the passive skill of killing 100% of generals myself?”
