Outside Jian An City.
Tens of thousands of villagers swarmed towards Jian An City's gate under the urging of 50,000 soldiers.
Jian An City's Lord, Cao Wenxing, stood on the city gate tower and looked at the scene coldly. He waved his hand and ordered, "Release the arrows!"
"Lord, they are the people of the Country of Yan!" A lieutenant standing behind Cao Wenxing could not bear to see the villagers. He quickly stepped forward to dissuade Cao Wenxing.
"Huh?"
Cao Wenxing glanced sideways and questioned, "If these lowly commoners rush to the city and break in, Luo Tianwu's army of fifty thousand will follow closely behind. Wei Mingcheng, tell me, who can bear this responsibility?! If Jian An City falls, both you and I will die! "
"Whoever dares to question my orders will be dealt with according to military law!" Cao Wenxing glared fiercely at the lieutenant.
The lieutenant called Wei Mingcheng lowered his head. Although he was indignant, he did not dare to say anything.
Cao Wenxing looked at the soldiers on the city wall and shouted, "Release the arrows!"
Some soldiers gritted their teeth, closed their eyes and released the bowstrings.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Arrows fell like rain.
This rain of arrows was undoubtedly a disaster for the unarmed people of the Country of Yan.
In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of villagers fell. Wails and cries were everywhere. It was a tragic sight.
If they advanced, they would die. If they retreated, they would also die.
The remaining thousands of villagers knelt at the foot of Jian An City. They kept kowtowing and crying helplessly. It was heartbreaking.
The 50,000 soldiers of Cang Lang City stood a few hundred meters away from Jian An City. Luo Tianwu stared coldly at the panicked and helpless people of the Country of Yan. There was no pity in his eyes.
When the two countries went to war, the first to suffer were these innocent people.
"City Lord, please open the door and let us in. My two children died on the battlefield. You can't treat us like this."
Cao Wenxing's expression was cold and unmoved.
A seven or eight-year-old child was frightened. He broke free from the arms of the woman and ran away instinctively. Before he could run a few steps, Luo Tianwu ordered him to be shot and killed. He fell weakly.
"Ah!"
The woman screamed and rushed towards Luo Tianwu like a madwoman. Before she could reach him, she was shot by a few arrows.
The woman fell to the ground. Her gaze was unfocused. She looked at the sky above her and murmured, "Heaven has pity on us. Who can save us …"
Rumble!
Right at this moment, dust and smoke billowed not far away. The ground shook violently, and the sound of hooves was like thunder. A large group of armored cavalry charged over aggressively.
The leader was clad in silver armor and held the Cold Iron Flowing Spring Spear in his hand. There was a ferocious scar on his face. His eyes were sharp as he shouted, "Luo Tianwu, give me your life!"
"Javelin!"
Before they were within the shooting range of the two armies' arrows, Su Hong, who was on his horse, pointed forward.
The five thousand Black Armor Cavalry behind him moved in unison, as if they had practiced this countless times. They threw the spears in their hands with all their might. Like a swarm of locusts, they covered the sky and earth.
Five thousand long spears that flickered with a cold light pierced through the void, emitting a 'wu wu' sound, which was very intimidating.
Almost all of the Black Armored Cavalry were masters at the Postliminary Realm. If they used all of their strength to throw the spear, their range would be much greater than that of a bow and arrow, and their power would also be much greater!
The gray-robed Qi Refinement Warrior's expression changed. In the face of such a dense spear array, he had to avoid the sharpness as well. He hurriedly summoned his flying sword and retreated while protecting Luo Tianwu.
The fifty thousand strong army of Cang Lang City was caught off guard. Many of the soldiers fell off their horses and died on the spot.
Throughout the entire process, the speed of the Black Armored Cavalry did not decrease at all. By the time the army of Cang Lang City reacted, the Black Armored Cavalry had already charged to the front!
The bows and arrows in the hands of the army of Cang Lang City immediately became useless. Instead, they became a burden.
"Change the formation!"
Su Hong roared. He took the lead and charged at the forefront. Song Qi followed closely behind.
The five thousand Black Armored Cavalry drew out the long sabers at their waists and transformed them into the shape of an awl. Their aura was like a rainbow as they ruthlessly pierced into the army of Cang Lang City!
Bang!
The two armies collided and fought at close quarters. Flesh and blood splattered everywhere. It was extremely tragic!
The five thousand Black Armored Cavalry tore a huge hole in the fifty thousand strong army!
At the sight of this scene, the soldiers on the city wall let out a cheer.
Wei Mingcheng looked agitated. He pointed at the five thousand Black Armored Cavalry below the city wall and said in a trembling voice, "It's the Black Armored Cavalry. It's the Black Armored Cavalry of the Country of Yan!"
Upon hearing the words' Black Armored Cavalry ', the soldiers in Jian An City shuddered.
To the soldiers who guarded the borders, the Black Armored Cavalry's reputation was like thunder to their ears. Under the leadership of Lord Wuding, the Black Armored Cavalry had won against many enemies despite being outnumbered. It had always been their pride and the pride of the Country of Yan.
It was a pity that there was an unforeseen event in the capital 16 years ago. The Black Armored Cavalry had also disappeared.
However, this name was deeply buried in the memories of every soldier.
"Is it General Su?"
"General Su is not dead. He has led the Black Armored Cavalry back!" Some soldiers were agitated and sobbed softly.
Wei Mingcheng stepped forward and said agitatedly, "Sir, Wei Mingcheng requests for battle. I am willing to lead a troop of soldiers to support the Black Armored Cavalry. We will definitely defeat the enemy!"
Cao Wenxing looked at him coldly and said indifferently, "You are not allowed to!"
Wei Mingcheng felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
Cao Wenxing said, "Su Mu is a traitor of the Country of Yan. He has died long ago. The person below the city wall is definitely not Su Mu."
"But they are the Black Armored Cavalry. I will definitely not be mistaken!"
"So what if they are the Black Armored Cavalry? There are only 5,000 of them. How long can they last? By the time Luo Tianwu stabilizes the army, these Black Armored Cavalry will be buried here. "
"The Black Armored Cavalry is invincible. Sir, have you forgotten these words? This is the glory of the Black Armored Cavalry. General Su has been on the battlefield all his life and has never been defeated! "
Cao Wenxing was impatient. He waved his hands and said, "Wei Mingcheng, as long as we guard Jian An City, it will be a great achievement. Two tigers are fighting outside the city wall. It is the wisest choice to be a bystander. No matter who wins or loses, Jian An City will benefit. "
"But …"
Cao Wenxing suddenly turned back and stared at Wei Mingcheng with a murderous look. He interrupted, "If you dare to say anything else and disturb the morale of my troops, I will kill you without mercy!"
Wei Mingcheng stared at Cao Wenxing in a daze. His eyes were filled with disappointment.
Within this short period of time, with the help of the gray-robed Qi Refinement Warrior, Luo Tianwu had already stabilized his footing and formed a confrontation with the Black Armored Cavalry outside Jian An City.
"Su Hong, you are crazy!"
Luo Tianwu said hatefully, "The King of Yan has a feud with your Su family. He was even killed by your younger brother. I, Luo Tianwu, am helping you to take revenge. Yet, you are here to stop me. What is the reason?!"
Luo Tianwu had thought of many things, but he did not expect Su Hong to rush out at this crucial moment.
The most troublesome thing for him was that there was actually a Qi Refinement Warrior beside Su Hong!
Su Hong sneered. "Luo Tianwu, listen up! The Su family and the King of Yan have a family feud. But your army is pressing on the border of the Country of Yan, invading the borders of the Country of Yan and killing the people of the Country of Yan. This is a national feud! I, Su Hong, can clearly distinguish between family feud and national feud! My father has been in the military all his life and has never let the Country of Yan lose even an inch of land. If I, Su Hong, let you have your way, how can I face him! "
His words were impassioned and powerful. All the soldiers in Jian An City were moved by his words.
Wei Mingcheng looked at Cao Wenxing's back view. His gaze was cold and his palm gradually moved towards the long saber at his waist.
"What are you doing?"
At this moment, Cao Wenxing suddenly turned around and looked at Wei Mingcheng who had already grasped the handle of the saber. He said in a cold voice, "Wei Mingcheng, how dare you defy your superiors and have the intention to kill me?"
"Dog official, I, Wei Mingcheng, disdain to be associated with you. Today, I will kill you!"
Wei Mingcheng let out a loud roar, drew his saber and rushed forward.
Cao Wenxing snorted coldly. He waved his sleeves and directly swept away the long saber that was slashing towards him. With a flip of his hand, he gave Wei Mingcheng's chest a heavy slap.
Wei Mingcheng was only at the Postnatal Realm. How could he be a match for Cao Wenxing who was at the Connate Realm?
Wei Mingcheng fell to the ground. He spat out a mouthful of blood, staining his clothes red. He smiled bitterly and said, "Cao Wenxing, you can kill me, but can you kill everyone in Jian An City? Look at these soldiers around you. Which one of them is willing to risk their lives for you?! You are a coward! "
Cao Wenxing looked around. From the lowest-ranking soldiers to the deputy general beside him, everyone was looking at him with a trace of anger and resistance.
Cao Wenxing was a little flustered.
No matter how powerful an Inborn Expert was, he could not defeat ten thousand people. If these soldiers under his command rebelled, how could he survive?
Below the city wall, Luo Tianwu's face was gloomy. He said coldly, "Su Hong, you want to go against my fifty thousand elite soldiers with just your five thousand cavalrymen? The difference in strength is ten to one. Do you have any chance of winning?! "
At this moment, a heroic voice suddenly sounded from the city wall. It spread to every corner of the battlefield.
"So what if you count me in? Luo Tianwu, what are your chances of winning?! "
Unknowingly, a man covered in blood stood on the city wall. A head hung at his waist. He carried a bow and a saber on his back. He was like an ancient deity who had descended. Although he looked weathered, his eyes were like torches and could not be stared at!
