A silver moon was hanging in the sky.
It was one of the rarely-seen sunny nights in recent days.
However, when it was almost midnight, a "dark cloud" inadvertently covered the moon on the Yuan people's side.
"Move out!"
In the city of Xiangyang, an order suddenly sounded.
Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!
Several specially-made silver flares were launched by the cannons on the city wall, illuminating the sky.
Then, all the city gates were opened at the same time, and teams of cavalrymen charged out from the drawbridges, aiming at the Yuan troops that were building camps around Xiangyang City!
"The Song soldiers are attacking the camp!"
"Get up and prepare for battle!"
However, most of the Yuan camps weren't panicked despite the "night attack".
Although a lot of troops had just arrived in Xiangyang City today, and the defense facilities in their camps weren't very good, the Yuan officers weren't worried about the Song troops' decision to abandon their defense and go out of the city at night because of their absolute advantage in terms of soldiers.
"The Song soldiers are completely abandoning their advantages!"
Instead, they were delighted.
After all, the city wall of Xiangyang City was high, and it was protected by the moat.
The Song soldiers had the navy to transport resources, so they couldn't be besieged. They could only attack the city!
However, in that case, a lot of people would die. Now that the Song soldiers had left the city, it was definitely a bad decision.
"Cannons, cannons, smash them!"
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh …
After the Xiangyang cavalrymen entered the attack range …
A "cannon" that was more than two meters long, or a "stone" that was even larger than a human head, was instantly shot out of the camp.
"Mountain!"
Lu Zhishen, who was at the front of the troop that left the city to the south, raised the Mandrill Glove that had been strengthened to Extraordinary Rank-7 on his arm that was as thick as an ordinary person's thigh and condensed into the shadow of a ferocious Mandrill.
However, this time, the Mandrill was holding an illusionary hill that was about one meter in diameter and three meters tall.
Pa! Pa!
The ballista of the Yuan people hit the yellow hill and was immediately covered in a layer of yellow light.
Then, it fell to the ground as if it had been petrified!
"Roar!"
As for the yellow mandrill, it let out an angry roar and smashed the illusory hill in its arms forward.
To the shock of the Yuan people, he was blown more than three hundred meters away, smashing a ballista that was shooting into pieces and killing a man in the process.
[Mark of Mountains]
[Grade: Special]
Level: Superior
[Description: An extraordinary expert of the Mountain Tribe extracted the core of a 300-zhang-tall mountain to create it. It requires power related to earth and stone to activate it.] After activation, the larger the mountain that was formed, the heavier it would be. Anything that was enveloped by the power of the mountain would be suppressed!
"Roar!"
Meanwhile, Wu Song, who was at the side, cut a stone thrown by a catapult in half. The stone's impact was not inferior to that of a cannonball.
After that, the Bloody Tiger Tally hanging on his waist suddenly opened its eyes and roared, turning into a bloody soundwave that charged at the Yuan camp. The few Yuan soldiers who were controlling the catapults paled.
Boom!
After that, Ling Zhen, who was holding a rocket launcher that had been modified and had a long range, was blown away after four shots!
"Soul, come back …"
However, there were battle participants on the Yuan side, too.
Some of the heroes who participated in the battle had woken up the remaining souls of the Yuan soldiers who were killed on the battlefield with their special techniques and the arrays that had been set up on the ground in front of the camp.
"Wu … Wu … Wu …"
Then, they charged towards the attacking army of Xiangyang City like ghosts wailing and gods howling!
"Is that a battle soul?"
Yang Zhi activated his Black Mountain Armor and condensed the shadow of a soul general with a black face on his back.
However, this time, the black Soul General was accompanied by a long halberd that was a spoils of war of the Yuan people. The halberd had a broken dark red flag on it!
[Flag of the Army Soul]
[Level: Special]
[Rarity: Common]
[Description: This is just a common flag in the beginning, but it has received Transcendent power because it has gathered part of the souls of countless soldiers who died miserably. Its power can only be activated in camps and on battlefields.]
This was a Transcendent item that could be activated through no special methods.
It was because it was nurtured by the souls of ordinary people in the first place.
"Attack!"
Faced with the crying remaining souls of the Yuan soldiers, the soul general opened its eyes and turned into abundant soul power that flowed into the broken flag nearby.
Then, a bunch of solid "army souls" appeared and killed the remaining souls of the Yuan soldiers in the blink of an eye!
Whoosh!
Yang Zhi, on the other hand, drew his bow and shot out a heavy black arrow.
It darted into the Yuan camp from more than half a kilometer away. After piercing through the bodies of two soldiers, it pierced through the chest of the Yuan battle participant who was performing the Soul-Summoning Technique.
There was also Lu Junyi, whose Qilin Saddle had been activated with Extraordinary power and seemed to be riding a purple Qilin, leaving traces of lightning on the ground wherever he passed, and Ruan Xiaoer, who commanded the warship to charge out of the water fort and launch cannonballs at the Yuan army with the pirate ship that had become his "ride" …
All the captain-type heroes of the Twin Dragon Mount fort attacked the Yuan people that surrounded Xiangyang City that night.
However, upon closer inspection, Wu Song and the others were obviously paying attention to the Yuan camp on the east side of the city gate during the battle.
It was because they were paying attention to the "royal camp" where the Yuan emperor was stationed.
The troops that left the city in other directions tonight were only to stall the Yuan emperor. Their real target was naturally the Yuan emperor!
Although the Yuan emperor was known as a "tyrant" in the history of the Yuan descendants, it was undeniable that his feat of conquering a hundred cities in a year was backed by a troop of elite soldiers who had been through hundreds of battles.
It was also worth mentioning that the "royal camp" that he was in used to be the royal camp of his younger brother, the East King.
It meant that the arrangements weren't imperfect just because they had just arrived!
How many soldiers had Xiangyang City sent out to deal with such a huge battle array?
As a matter of fact, only about a thousand cavalrymen were charging at the Yuan royal camp!
According to Ji Ye's observation with the Mirage Cloud Mirror during the day, there were at least ten thousand soldiers in the Yuan royal camp.
A thousand versus ten thousand?
After leaving the narrow moat area, the troop of about a thousand soldiers quickly changed their battle formation while charging at the Yuan royal camp, showing their amazing military expertise and teamwork.
What was most surprising was that after the battle formation was basically completed …
A certain page of a book that was made of unknown materials flashed in the hands of the leading general.
In the next moment, an invisible force surged out of every soldier who was charging and condensed into the illusionary shadow of a bright golden roc that was flapping its wings above the troop of a thousand soldiers.
After that, the troop that was charging at the Yuan royal camp suddenly moved at an unbelievable speed.
The Roc Formation, a unique battle formation of the Yue Army, which was a Perfect special unit, could only be formed by at least a thousand soldiers.
That's right, the Yue Army!
The thousand soldiers were exactly the special unit that Huang Rong and Guo Jing trained according to the methods in the Book of Wumu after they received the Book of Wumu.
Yue Fei's courtesy name was "Pengju".
In many novels, he was the reincarnation of the Golden-Winged Roc. According to the legends, the Golden-Winged Roc was the fastest in the world!
On the Land of Inheritance, Yue Fei, who was theoretically Legendary, and the Yue Army under his command, which was also Legendary, couldn't be ordinary.
The real Golden-Winged Roc Formation could only be formed by more than ten thousand soldiers, which could increase the speed of an army by more than ten times. The Roc Formation made of a thousand soldiers could also increase the speed by three times!
That was exactly the power of a battle formation.
