Chapter 297 All-Out Attack
Lu Zhao wiped the blood from his face. "General, the enemy is attacking from both sides, and our army is in a passive position and unable to break through."
Ten miles from the city gate of the southern border battlefield, Shan Baiyu led an army of 200,000 in a bloody battle. The corpses of the soldiers on the ground piled up like mountains, and the blood stained the entire battlefield.
Dan Baiyu gripped his heavy sword and slashed down, sending the enemy general who came to fight flying.
"Lu Zhao and Fei Zhong, break out from the left and right flanks."
"Your humble servant obeys."
The two men accepted the order and led their troops to fight from the left and right flanks. They were both capable generals of the Shan family army, leaving behind the corpses of the enemy wherever they went.
The Shan family army has been fighting the enemy for five days. Most of the soldiers on both sides have been killed or wounded. Without sufficient food and supplies, they cannot stop the enemy's 400-strong army.
Dan Baiyu stared fiercely at the enemy general in front of him, Kang Mao, a fierce general of Dongchen. More than ten years ago, it was he who led the troops to attack Nanyue and was defeated by His Majesty.
He led his troops again, solely to avenge his previous humiliation.
"Kang Mao, prepare to die."
Dan Baiyu mounted his horse and charged straight at the enemy general, sending the enemy who tried to stop him flying.
The wind howled, and yellow sand covered the ground, obscuring most of the view.
“You brat, you dare to fight me?”
Lost in his rage, Kang Mao swung his iron hammer down, striking the left side of his warhorse. Shan Baiyu seized the opportunity to dismount, severing the enemy horse's foreleg, and quickly leaped up, gripping his heavy sword as he slashed down.
Whether you are worthy or not is not up to you to decide.
Kang Mao dodged to the side, his helmet fell off, and if he had been a step too late, his head would have been severed.
“You brat, how dare you!”
He dared not underestimate his opponent any longer and raised the iron hammer to bring it down heavily.
The two fought fiercely, evenly matched.
With one hand, Shan Baiyu wielded the heavy sword and unleashed the Shan family's twelve sword strikes, each strike exactly the same as the one used by General Shan back then.
Kang Mao's pupils constricted as the image of General Shan appeared in his mind.
He was just one move away from dying at the hands of General Shan.
"You think you can kill me?"
Ignoring his roar, Shan Baiyu unleashed each strike fiercely.
Father, elder brother, watch how your son defeats him.
The battlefield was in chaos, with screams and the clash of weapons echoing everywhere, and countless warriors fell in the blink of an eye.
On the city wall, Zhong Changchun wielded a long spear, killing enemies, overturning ladders, and slaying enemy soldiers.
"Mother, it is my good fortune to fight alongside you against the enemy today."
Zhong Hong wielded her twin swords cleanly and skillfully; the years had not diminished her martial arts prowess, and the blades precisely sliced open her enemy's neck.
"Stop talking nonsense and save your energy to kill a few more."
Their mission was to defend the city gates to the death and prevent the enemy from having any chance to breach them.
They can only win this battle, they cannot afford to lose.
At Beijiang Square.
Hua Si'an wore military uniform throughout his life, with a group of soldiers of varying heights standing behind him. Before joining the army, they were all agile villagers from various villages.
“My husband, I can only feel at ease with you guarding the northern frontier. The Crown Princess is our savior and our ruler. I cannot hide behind her and let her face the difficulties alone.”
Pei Sha swallowed his reluctance and said, "My lady, please take good care of yourself and don't let your husband worry about you."
In the early stages of education in the northern frontier, things were not yet perfect, and he could not leave the people to fend for themselves.
Hua Si'an chuckled and punched him in the chest.
“Who am I, Hua Si’an? I’ve been through thick and thin since I was a child, and every time I’ve turned danger into safety. Pei Sha, you are the governor of a city, you must not forget your mission.”
One of them must stay, and it must be him.
Pei Sha chuckled helplessly and took the bundle from the guard's hands.
"These are the poison powders I usually concoct, used to save my life in critical situations."
"it is good."
Hua Si'an took the bundle, mounted his horse, and shouted with great momentum.
"Let's go." Your Highness, you protect the people, and Si'an will protect you.
We must catch up.
Sixty thousand soldiers set off in a grand procession, and the people who were building roads in the surrounding area knelt down and prayed to the gods that the army would return safely.
It borders the frontier battlefield to the north.
Yu Changfeng personally led the expedition, blood dripping from his arm onto the ground. He stepped on the mountain of corpses and casually glanced at the enemy ahead.
With a swift stroke, he cleanly severed the enemy soldier's head.
"Today I will use you as a sacrifice for my sword."
The enemy soldiers, armed and on high alert, dared not advance.
Their armies were composed of troops from small countries, and their battles were usually small-scale skirmishes; they had never seen such a battle before.
The leading general mumbled something in Spanish, and dozens of soldiers surrounded Yu Changfeng, taking out triangular hooks and throwing them.
"His Majesty."
The general, who was engaged in battle, shouted and rushed over, but was blocked by the enemy.
Yu Changfeng leaped into the air, dodging the triangular hook. He landed in mid-air, stepping on the hook with his powerful internal energy, and caught the enemy's arrows, throwing them back at them.
"You can't kill me without showing your true abilities."
He leaped out of the enemy's encirclement, picked up a spear from the ground, and fought fiercely, piling up the dead enemy soldiers into small mounds.
The generals were dumbfounded. They had been fighting the enemy for two days and two nights, but His Majesty not only showed no signs of fatigue, but fought with increasing ferocity, frightening the enemy into retreating five miles.
"Charge!" the general shouted, leading his soldiers in pursuit of the enemy, "to kill the enemy and spread our glory to the north!"
Yu Changfeng killed the last enemy soldier in the encirclement, plunged his spear into his heart, and upon hearing the soldier's words, a cryptic smile appeared in his eyes.
"Imperial Advisor, you must not disappoint me."
The enemy's blood flowed down his forehead, staining his bloodshot eyes.
Nuannuan, waiting for your husband.
"Second Prince of Dongchen, do not disappoint your national tutor."
Qinghe sat in a carriage, leading his army to surround the Eastern Chen Imperial City.
The Imperial Preceptor Qinghe, who should have been in Nanyue, led 60,000 elite troops from Nanyue Beizhou northward, attacking Dongchen City along the way, subduing the enemy army, and killing all those who refused to surrender.
The army attacked thirteen cities in Dongchen, suppressing enemy generals with both appeasement and swift action, growing from 60,000 elite troops to 200,000.
He picked up his teacup, took a sip, and looked at the defense map and map of Dongchen Imperial City.
Thanks to Boss Tao, he was able to familiarize himself with the terrain of Dongchen and win battles all the way to the imperial city.
Their plan was mostly successful.
The general stood by the carriage window and nodded: "Grand Preceptor, shall we attack the capital?"
Qinghe put down his teacup. "Where has the news reached?"
The general answered respectfully, not daring to look directly at him.
"We have reached the border of Dongchen. One more person is needed to reach Yuecheng."
The Imperial Advisor was a capable man. He conquered cities with an iron fist, sealed off all access routes, and only sent someone to deliver a message when he was about to arrive at the Eastern Chen Imperial City.
To deal with Nan Yue and Bei Lin, Dong Cheng transferred most of its troops, leaving only 30,000 soldiers stationed in the imperial city, making it virtually an empty city.
He killed the soldiers who refused to surrender and left their bodies hanging on the city walls for three days.
He simply couldn't understand how such a ruthless person could appear to be a gentleman.
Qinghe slowly took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands. "Wait another day, and we will attack the city tomorrow morning. General Huang, do not forget what your former advisor said."
General Huang nodded repeatedly, "Rest assured, Grand Preceptor, I will strictly enforce the law. Anyone who disrespects military authority will be executed without mercy."
From the day the city was attacked, the Grand Preceptor said that the people must not be harmed, and anyone who violated this rule would be killed without mercy.
The people of Dongchen were initially panicked, but seeing that the soldiers of Nanyue did not harm them, they resumed their normal lives.
Ultimately, ordinary people don't care who is the emperor; they only care about whether they can have enough to eat and live a peaceful life.
Nuannuan is the only emperor. No child will replace her as emperor before she grows old, nor will she be allowed to have children. So don't expect to have a baby! (Except for adopted babies.)
