As the leader of the Tiger Dragons, General Cheng had the absolute right to speak. He didn't want to start a war. However, he couldn't refuse to receive the envoys from the outer city. If he did, it would be equivalent to offending Du Feng.
That was because these people from the outer city were obviously here to deal with Du Feng. Otherwise, they wouldn't have come back. Of course, they didn't come empty-handed. They brought some decent weapons, armor, and ten Dragon Gate Cannons. They also brought a few experts to assist Huang Youxue.
More importantly, they said that if they could kill Du Feng this time, the Half Sage Elixir Pill would belong to Huang Youxue.
One must know that half of the reason why these people dealt with Du Feng and Mo Ziren was because of the Half Sage Elixir Pill. Unexpectedly, they didn't want Huang Youxue anymore. They just wanted to kill Du Feng and his people.
The conflict had already intensified to such an extent. Since they had already said so, Huang Youxue had no choice but to do it.
"Alright, I'll take this job. You have to give me a month to prepare."
Huang Youxue was a cautious person. He knew that he couldn't escape this time. He had to bite the bullet. Not only did he have to bite the bullet, but the warriors also had to follow him. However, the family members were innocent, especially the children.
Therefore, in a month's time, he divided his territory into two parts. One part was the place where he lived with the warriors. It was also the place where they prepared for battle. The other part was further away from Du Feng's territory. It was designated as the family's area. That area didn't participate in the battle. It was just some ordinary residents.
If the Tiger Dragons lost, they hoped that Du Feng wouldn't kill the family members.
Because of this, Huang Youxue specially sent a letter of challenge to Du Feng. The letter of challenge was very clear. There must be a battle between the two of them. However, no matter who won or lost, the non-combatants were innocent.
After reading it, Du Feng immediately agreed. He didn't want the innocent people to be implicated. At the same time, he understood that this would be a tough battle. There would probably be many casualties. The Bull Dragons, Horse Dragons, and Wolf Dragons under his command were probably going to suffer.
Interestingly, during this one month of preparation, some ordinary residents of the Tiger Dragons gradually moved out. They did not move into the residential area that Huang Youxue had prepared for them. Instead, they moved into Du Feng's area.
Du Feng had always opened his doors to the residents of the Tiger and Dragons. As long as they wanted to, they could come in at any time.
And this time, Huang Youxue had no intention of stopping them at all. Because even he himself didn't know who would win and who would lose in this battle. If he won, he would naturally be able to protect his clansmen. However, if he lost, the Tiger Dragons would lose their advantage.
Only the non-combatants were left. They were easily bullied by the surrounding forces, such as the Leopard Dragons who did not participate in the battle. Don't be fooled by the fact that they were pretending to be honest people who didn't want to fight. When the time came, that might not necessarily be the case.
On the other hand, if Du Feng lost, the original members of the Tiger Dragons could use their old connections to come back. Therefore, those who left now seemed to be more resourceful.
Du Feng was also making ample preparations. However, he did not divide the battle area and the residential area. First of all, there weren't many residents on his side. Moreover, it was originally made up of three territories. It could be said that they were spread out.
If Huang Youxue wanted to defeat him, he would definitely have to occupy the area where the Big Ben was. There was no point in fighting in the other areas. All he needed to do was to have the non-combatants retreat outside the Big Ben.
In addition, Du Feng had never thought of losing. He had no way out. Therefore, he had to win. If he really couldn't win, he would use a forbidden technique. He would rather expose himself to win this tough battle.
"Don't worry, Brother Du, we will fully cooperate with you."
Draconis, Mo Ziren, and the Dragon Emperor had all broken through to the Ninth Transformation of the Divine Emperor realm. It could be said that they were all very strong. The newly recruited warriors of the Wolf and Dragons were also not weak.
In this month, Du Feng did not train much. It was very difficult to improve his Cultivation in such a short time. He used the time to forge equipment and set up tactics, so that the warriors of the three different races could work together.
"Good brother, let's fight this tough battle."
Du Feng looked at his brothers standing there, straight and fearless. He was very excited, and he felt his blood boiling. The month's time passed quickly. On the first day, Huang Youxue had already set up the formation.
As expected, they also used the Dragon Gate Cannon as the first layer of attack.
Although there were only ten Dragon Gate Cannons, their explosive power was not small. Even if thousands of soldiers and horses were to charge forward, they would still be blasted into chaos. Moreover, the denser the people were, the more effective the Dragon Gate Cannon was. Therefore, to win the first battle, they had to destroy the Dragon Gate Cannon.
And to destroy the Dragon Gate Cannon, they had to get close to the enemy's position.
This time, Huang Youxue was well-prepared. He did not set up the Dragon Gate Cannon on the wall. Instead, he purposely built ten tall cannons. Even if one of the cannons was destroyed, the other nine could still operate. The taller the cannons were, the farther the attack range would be.
Not only did he build the cannons, but he also sent a large number of soldiers to guard the cannons. If Du Feng and the others wanted to destroy the cannons, they had to fight the Tiger and Dragons first.
Du Feng saw these things during the construction process. He had also analyzed the situation and made some preparations. As the saying went, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will emerge victorious. How could the smart Du Feng not be prepared?
However, his preparation was a little special. It was not the advanced Dragon Gate Cannon, nor was it the powerful City-Guarding Crossbow. Instead, it was a mobile catapult.
Yes, it was such a primitive and old-fashioned thing. Many ordinary people knew how to make such primitive mechanisms. He was a Formation Master and a Blacksmith Master, yet he made such things.
Why didn't Du Feng copy the Dragon Gate Cannon or strengthen the power of the City-Guarding Crossbow? Because the Dragon Gate Cannon required special materials, which he did not have. Even if he figured out the principle, he could not make it without the materials.
Although the City-Guarding Crossbow was powerful, it was used to shoot people. It was far from powerful enough to destroy the cannons. After all, the cannons were built with stones, while humans were made of flesh. The hardness of the two was completely different.
Although the catapult was primitive, it was powerful. As long as the round stones were big and heavy enough, the power of the Dragon Gate Cannon would not be inferior.
Of course, the disadvantage of the catapult was that it was not accurate. In addition, the throwing speed was slow, and it required a long distance. Because of this, Du Feng arranged for the catapult to be at the back, near the edge of An Zhenguang's territory.
