The arrival of Zhan’er Mu was a strong blow. He brought along four experts of the True Dan realm, which greatly increased the battle power of the gra*sland army at the top.
Moreover, he himself is also an extremely strong expert. If Gaju did not have the Greedy Wolf star power, he would have been just a match for Zhanyi.
With Zhan’er Mu around, plus his own strength has been greatly enhanced by the star power, Gaju has immense confidence that he will be able to return all the shame he has suffered by fleeing in disgrace.
The army pulled out of camp and pushed forward.
The 120,000 strong army brought a rumbling sound just by advancing, with the momentum of a landslide, bringing a powerful pressure.
“Stop.”
When the army was still five miles away from the Flying Cloud Pa*s, Gaju ordered a halt.
“What is it, brother?” Cham’er Mu asked, somewhat surprised.
“There must be tunnels for the Chinese around here. Last night, the Chinese used them to attack us ——”
Gaju explained in detail for Zhanyi Mu what happened last night.
Those strange corpses that were basically water except for their skin and bones, Gaju did not want to be attacked by them again.
Before, it was fine for a direct confrontation, but now that the army was moving forward, if these water spirits were to rush into the army formation, it would certainly cause chaos.
“It’s no big deal,” said Zhanyi, beating his chest vigorously, “these Chinese are only capable of such useless tricks, look at me.”
With a stirrup, his huge body sprang into action and leapt high.
“Phew…”
The horse let out a wail and collapsed to the ground. The stirrup of Zhan’er Mu had shattered the whole body of this excellent war horse, killing it.
“Earth-shaking divine power.”
In the air, Zhan’er Mu’s arms swelled, sinews as thick as ropes rippled, and his mighty power exploded as he landed after a brief buildup.
“Boom boom boom ——”
The thick arms pounded into the ground, the mighty force shattering the rocks and shaking up the pitch black soil. The force of the shock spread, and all four sides of the tunnel collapsed.
“Hahahaha ——”
Cham’er Mu’s body swelled into a small giant, laughing wildly as he ran and stamped ahead. Everywhere he pa*sed, all the tunnels collapsed.
In just a few moments, all the tunnels in front of the huge Flying Cloud Pa*s were collapsed.
“Chinese people, weak two-legged sheep.” Jimmu stopped and shouted at the head of the walls of Feiyun Pa*s.
The loud voice carried over the city, causing Xu Tiecheng to turn blue, “D*mn, these gra*slanders have been invading the Central Plains year after year, capturing and killing countless of our people, and now they still dare to shout like this.”
“If we were as weak as he says we are, why have the gra*slanders not set foot in the Central Plains until now?”
His calm words caused Xu Tie Cheng’s face to clear slightly and he said, “It is my general who has lost his cool.”
His gaze was cold as he stared at the shouting Zhan’ermu, “I recognise this man, he is Zhan’ermu, a general of the Right Sage King Agugo. The Golden Wolf Khan’s court is really undisguised in its probing, even this butcher has been sent out.”
Those who led the army to invade the border were basically the subordinates of the Right Sage King Agogo. These troops, who relied on force and were fierce by nature, did not have a calm and resourceful superior to control them, and they liked to invade the border of Northern Zhou most.
One of the most arrogant of them was Cham’er Mu.
He had once captured seven border fortresses in a single night and slaughtered thousands of people, and was the most hated butcher by Xu Tie Cheng, who had been guarding the border for many years.
Now, seeing Zhan’ermu screaming again, it was no wonder that Xu Tie Cheng had a little difficulty in calming down.
“Last night, he killed more than 30,000 gra*slanders, and the remaining 100,000 or so will die here today. General, look on the bright side.” Gu Chen said with relief.
“It’s time to look on the bright side, the people who die today are definitely gra*slanders.”
Xu Tie Cheng laughed and opened his mouth to shout, “Gaju, you B*****d son without a father, you still haven’t recovered from your wounds last night, are you here to die today?”
“And Cham’er Mu, simple-minded trash, who has come a long way to die here, this general thanks you for your great justice. When you die, this general will take your head as a night pot.”
Xu Tie Cheng opened his mouth and grabbed Gaju and Zhan Er Mu with a sneer. This kind of general, who had been garrisoning the border for many years, had no shortage of words to ridicule people, and his sarcastic remarks were so well placed that they made Zhanyi and Gaju so angry that they turned red in the face.
“D*mned two-legged sheep, you are looking for death!” Cham’er Mu was furious, his mountain-like body striding forward, rumbling the ground.
Behind him, Gaju’s face was also twisted with anger as he said in a fierce voice, “March in and break Feiyun Pa*s at all costs. After we enter the city, we will slaughter it for three days, leaving not even a single rat behind.”
The army attacked again, marching forward.
Amongst the sea of people, the most conspicuous were some black metal instruments.
“Those things ——”
Gu Chen said with some suspicion, “It seems a bit like the Fire Ministry’s artillery?”
“Artillery —— You mean those weapons that the Great Qian military has started to popularize in recent times?” Xu Tie Cheng asked in amazement.
“Well,” Gu Chen nodded, “such exquisite weapons are not something that the Gra*slanders can make.”
The gra*slanders were very crude even with cold weapons, let alone such firearms. These firearms were definitely not developed by the gra*slanders, but were made by others and given or sold to the gra*slanders.
“Firearms are not easy to make, and the Fire Department’s fellow trainees are also in the fumbling stage. These firearms, most likely, came from the Great Qian.”
“Then they are from Da Qian.” Xu Tie Cheng affirmed.
“Great Qian is in chaos now, and it seems that those in the Great Qian court do not want our dynasty to develop peacefully either.”
“That’s just as well,” Gu Chen laughed, “The artillery has a range of up to one mile, and the enemy army will definitely be within the range of the Submerged Dragon’s attack as much as possible.
As he spoke, the gra*slanders’ army was about to enter the three-mile range. The front-running Zhanyi Mu was already within two miles.
“Crossbows, fire.” Xu Tie Cheng ordered at once.
Although he could not wait for the enemy to rush over, he still had to do what he had to do, he could not let the enemy see that there were ghosts on this side.
Ten thick crossbow arrows were shot out by the crossbow wagon, emitting a sharp cracking sound, and shot at the foremost Zhan’er Mu.
“It’s no use!”
With a wild laugh, Zhan’ermu’s thick arms pivoted, knocking several crossbow arrows away. And then, with his arms together, he grabbed the arrows that were fired at his chest.
The thick crossbow arrows were firmly grasped by Zhan’ermu’s hands and instantly came to a standstill.
The strength of the arrows was so powerful that the soldiers on the walls of Feiyun Pa*s were so shocked that they could not even hold their weapons still.
Below, Zhan Ermu laughed wildly, unstoppable.
At the same time, Gu Chen and Xu Tie Cheng also laughed.
“It’s about time.”
In the underground cavern, the white-haired Daoist guiding the latent dragon opened his eyes.
