"Thank you, Brother Xiao, for allowing me to borrow your power!"
After exiting the tent, Wu Ming cupped his fists and bowed.
"We're all brothers, no need to be so polite!"
Xiao Jizhi also smiled.
In terms of rank, he was a Secondary ninth rank and was inferior to Wu Ming. However, sometimes, it was not calculated this way.
Xiao Jizhi was the bodyguard of General Ya and served Commander Liu Jie day and night. Their relationship was close and he was extremely trusted.
Liu Jie was the leader of Xin Shan, the superior of Jin Gang's superior. The difference between the two was two ranks and four ranks. It was like the gap between heaven and earth.
If Xiao Jizhi was offended, it would be extremely troublesome if he occasionally caused trouble.
"However, this person seems to hate you. Do you want me to help you move to another place?" Xiao Jizhi lowered his voice and asked.
"No need!"
Recalling the scene just now, Wu Ming also smiled coldly.
Where did the fate of an official come from? Part of it came from the superior's system while the other part came from the subordinates' contributions.
However, he saw the atmosphere of that battalion just now. It was only average.
Even as a direct superior, he had to divide a portion every day for him to absorb.
However, he had Taoist techniques to protect himself and the mnemonic chant to lock fate. He did not have to pay any taxes!
Sensing his aura, it was very normal that this person did not like him!
If this situation continued, Jin Gang would only have a hundred people. In an instant, half of them would be gone. He would not be able to replenish them and he would have to swallow them all the time.
In other words, this person would be in big trouble sooner or later. That would be his opportunity.
…
The imperial army was pressing down. Li Rubi was not a person who would sit and wait for death. He did not wait for the state and county soldiers to assemble and took the initiative to attack Zhen Ding County with the three capitals of Xin Shan, Lie Shan, and Nu Shan.
This county was the gate of the state capital. Once it was taken down, it would be a smooth journey to the state capital of Caozhou. There would be no more obstacles.
"Quick! Keep up, don't fall behind! "
The army meandered forward. Wu Ming looked at the flags that covered the sky and the densely packed army. A strange look flashed in his eyes. "This is indeed a good opportunity. The elite troops of the imperial army have not arrived yet. If we take down the state capital, it will become a reality. Then, we can separate a state and officially call ourselves a king! … Of course, right now, Li Rubi is also in a bit of a pinch when it comes to using troops. Otherwise, he wouldn't have sent Xin Shandu, who is in charge of the new soldiers … "
At this time, Xin Shan, Lie Shan, and Nu Shan had more than five thousand people. It was truly a boundless army. They advanced with irresistible force. Several small counties surrendered without a fight until they reached the plains outside of Zhen Ding county and set up their battle formation.
Wu Ming opened his spiritual eye and saw black and red energy soaring into the sky from the army. The opposite prefecture city was also filled with the energy of soldiers. Wu Ming's eyes couldn't help but twitch.
"Rumor has it that the general in charge of this city is Cao Du, the nephew of the governor. He's brave but not astute and has a bad temper. Although he also has five thousand state soldiers, but …"
"Report!"
At this moment, Zhong Ting came over and reported, "The Commander has gathered all the Guard Generals and Camp Commanders for a meeting. This is the battalion commander's order! "
He immediately passed a scroll to Wu Ming.
Wu Ming hurriedly lifted it and sneered, "You want me to be the vanguard? You really don't need to hide your wild ambitions! "
The soldiers were fierce and the battles were dangerous. After a battle, the vanguard would lose thirty to fifty percent of its soldiers.
Disobeying orders was even worse. They could be executed according to military law.
"Captain, what should we do?"
At this time, Zhong Ting and Wu Ming were bound together for good or ill, so he immediately said with fear.
"Just follow the orders. I promise you that nothing will happen this time. Instead, you might even be promoted to nobility!"
He had seen Jin Gang's luck this morning. It was already covered by dark clouds and his foundation was shaken.
Speaking of which, there was always a reason for the activation of luck. It wasn't something that happened overnight. Instead, it was something that could be magnified or minimized to the limit.
For example, Zhong Ting, Niu Yong, and He Zi Hai were people with luck. The possibility of them meeting misfortune on the battlefield was slightly lower than that of ordinary soldiers.
And Wu Ming could rely on them to borrow luck to protect himself.
However, Jin Gang's luck was already bad. If he hid in the cellar of his house and ignored everything, he might still have a chance of survival. But now that he was on the battlefield, what else could it be other than seeking his own death?
…
"How dare you insult me like this?"
At the same time, on top of the city wall, Cao Du looked at the women's clothes sent by the rebel army. Although he knew it was a provocation, he was still furious. "Men! Gather the troops and let's go out and fight it out! "
"No!"
A scholar next to him, who was his chief strategist, hurriedly tried to dissuade him. "Lord Prefecture Overseer's order is for you to defend the city until the imperial court's Great General Wang Xuanfan arrives. This person is rumored to be the true fate of Wuqu State. With six thousand tigers and wolves under him, it will be enough to pacify the rebel army. At that time, you will have made a great contribution …"
If it was any other time, Cao Du would have tolerated it. However, looking at the colorful clothes that smelled of women's cosmetics, the anger in his heart spread uncontrollably. "Get out of here! If I don't kill this bastard today, I'm not a man! "
With a flick of his hand, the strategist was thrown out. His forehead hit the bricks on the wall, and blood gushed out like a fountain.
"Are you still not going to obey?"
Seeing that his trusted strategist was in such a state, the generals immediately did not dare to disobey.
A moment later, the city gates opened, and Cao Du personally led the army out and formed a formation on the plains.
"By the will of the heavens, we will suppress the rebels!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill! "
…
Tens of thousands of people faced off against each other. Their blood and qi soared into the sky, almost forming a layer of dark clouds. There was also a strong sense of oppression.
"Haha, He Zihai, are you afraid?"
Wu Ming's team was in the vanguard position. They could almost see the spears and halberds on the opposite side when they looked up. Zhong Ting, Niu Yong, and a few squad leaders all had solemn expressions on their faces. He Zihai's face was even paler, and his body was trembling. However, he forced himself to straighten his back and said through gritted teeth.
"It's a worthy death to serve the lord!"
"Very good!"
Not only did Wu Ming nod his head, but even Zhong Ting and the others next to him had a change of opinion. They felt that this scholar at least had a backbone.
"However, I can still promise you that in this battle, we will not make any mistakes, and we will not suffer too many losses …"
With a smile on his lips, Wu Ming looked up.
In the air, two rays of black and red Qi soared into the sky and fought against each other.
In fact, above the battle formation, two interconnected stars suddenly shone brightly. Inauspicious stars shone and shone brightly. The enemies fought against each other as if they were testing each other's strength.
'Even though Cao Du's army's Qi is slightly weaker, it's not as if we can't fight back.
Also … 'As he looked at the stars in the enemy's field of stars, Wu Ming's eyes moved.
The two armies faced off against each other for a moment. In the end, Cao Du could not hold it in any longer and attacked first.
"Beat the drum!"
Dong! Dong! Dong!
The dull and penetrating sound of the drum instantly rang through the entire battlefield.
"Advance! Advance! Advance! "
The spearmen in the enemy's formation immediately raised their spears. Under the urging of the squad leaders and squad leaders, they marched forward in an orderly manner like a torrent of steel.
In ancient times, it was not easy to transmit orders. The soldiers would listen to the drum and march forward. If they disobeyed it, it would be a great crime! The military judge could behead them immediately!
"Kill!"
When Liu Jie and the other commanders saw this, they also gave their orders.
As the drum beat sounded, Wu Ming and the others drew their sabers and stared at the formation of spears in front of them. The archers on both sides drew their bows and nocked their arrows. Their arms were steady, and they looked as if they were made of steel.
The two formations drew closer.
Three hundred steps!
Two hundred steps!
One hundred steps!
"Defend!"
Finally, as the general roared, the archers loosened their bowstrings, and a rain of arrows came crashing down like a dark cloud.
The archers shouted and fired three volleys. After three volleys, no matter how strong they were, they had to retreat.
The shield-bearers raised their thick and sturdy wooden shields and aimed them at the direction of the volley of arrows. Clang, clang, clang, clang. The sound of metal clashing against metal rose nonstop. More unlucky people were hit by arrows and fell to the ground.
"Kill!"
The soldiers on both sides gritted their teeth against the volley of arrows. They pressed forward even more fiercely and suddenly launched a charge.
Bang!
The two torrents of steel crashed into each other. Their martial arts, vigor, and even their karmic luck burned fiercely, and they shone with the most brilliant light!
"Kill!"
Wu Ming commanded his small team of three to kill the incoming enemies.
Since the elites under his command were comparable to the Fang soldiers, Zhong Ting, Niu Yong, and the others were all talented generals, they still had some strength left to observe the surroundings.
"What a strong military spirit! What a strong killing intent! Such a terrifying Fierce Blood Light … I'm afraid that even a sorcerer's spells would be greatly weakened. "
As he felt the vigor and killing intent pounding against him, suppressing the magic power in his sea of consciousness, Wu Ming could not help but sigh inwardly.
He had entered the Nine Mountains Army's system. Even though he had the permission to cast spells, he was still in such a state. If an ordinary alchemist were on the battlefield, he would probably lose all his magical powers.
Battle cries, screams, and even the sound of weapons clashing reverberated in the surroundings.
However, Wu Ming sensed something strange.
On both sides of the battlefield, the ground was shaking. It was the scene of cavalry galloping and horses stomping on the ground.
"Break the Cavalry, charge!"
Cao Du, who was in the middle of the army, passed down the order.
A group of several hundred cavalrymen flew out, bypassed the main formation, and headed straight for the flank of the Nine Mountains Army.
"Cavalry, attack!"
At Liu Jie's order, cavalrymen from the Nine Mountains Army also flew out. Two black torrents, accompanied by the roars of war horses, quickly collided with each other.
"Break the Army!"
At this moment, one of Cao Du's cavalrymen shouted, and a layer of dazzling starlight appeared on his body.
Buzz!
In the sky, a star that was more than twice the size of an ordinary ominous star suddenly appeared, emitting a sharp light. The surging star power transformed into a long spear that struck down.
The Break the Army Star!
Anyone who had the Fate of this star would definitely become a peerlessly brave general who could defeat all armies!
"Break the Army! Break the Army! "
The cavalrymen behind this general also roared, and the starlight on their bodies seemed to coalesce into one. The hundreds of cavalrymen seemed to have transformed into a terrifying long spear, sweeping away all obstacles and scattering the Nine Mountains Army cavalrymen.
"Break the Army's secondary fate? And there are military magical powers? "
Liu Jie's expression was extremely unsightly.
The secondary fate of this person had surpassed the Revolving Starlight and the Manifestation of the Main Star. This person was qualified to compete for the Break the Army True Fate!
The intensity of the starlight on this person's body was at least ten percent of the Break the Army True Fate!
"Left flank, listen to my order! Kill this person at all costs!"
Liu Jie's back was drenched in cold sweat. He knew that if this cavalry general broke the flank of the army and allowed the soldiers to charge in, they would be defeated in an instant!
