However, Miao Yi had taken such a huge risk in order to seize the weak point. Now that he had it in his hands, how could he let them go so easily? He looked to his left and right, and shouted, "Behead Kang Zhilu and Yao Yuanchu, these two rebellious traitors!"
Sparing their lives meant that he would drag them out and behead them in front of everyone.
"You dare!" Pei, Heng, and Wu shouted angrily in unison, their hearts pounding.
Kang and Yao struggled slightly, but they were powerless. They couldn't break free at all. Their faces were filled with panic and fear.
Xu Tangran was also terrified. What would he do if he provoked the people outside to charge in? He didn't dare to act rashly, and couldn't help but look towards Yang Qing.
"Milord!" Yang Qing was also anxious, and hurriedly transmitted his voice to advise, "These two can't be killed now. The people controlling the Ten Eagle Flags are all their men. We need to keep them alive to threaten the Ten Eagle Flags Commander. Otherwise, if they incite a mutiny, the consequences will be unthinkable!"
"Yang Qing!" Miao Yi shouted, and pointed his spear at Yang Qing. Sometimes, this twisted mind of a person was really hateful. He only thought of this and that, always thinking of using schemes to solve problems. How could he not have a bit of courage to control this group of arrogant soldiers? He had already pushed his momentum to this point, yet he dared to delay in front of everyone's eyes, and let out his own power, making others suspect that there were problems within him. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was disrupting the morale of the army. Miao Yi really wanted to rush up and kill him with a single thrust of his spear. He shouted again, "Behead!"
Yang Qing's heart trembled. Seeing Miao Yi's eyes red with anxiety, he immediately realized that this was the final warning.
Yan Xiu also glared coldly at Yang Qing. Yang Zhaoqing quickly rode his spiritual beast over, and coldly swept his gaze over Xu Tangran.
Pu! Xu Tangran saw that the situation wasn't good. With a flip of his hand, a saber appeared in his hand. He raised the saber, and hot blood spurted out. A head flew out. Yao Yuanchu's head had been cleanly chopped off.
However, after this slash, Xu Tangran's hands and feet felt a little numb as he looked at the dense mass of soldiers. He knew that he was finished. Once these people charged in, there would be no way for him to survive.
"Niu Youde …" Pei, Wu, and Heng shouted in shock.
Miao Yi's fiendish glare incited her. Yang Qing, who had already realized his own problem, no longer hesitated. With a flip of his hand, he took out his saber and swung it down. Kang Zhilu's head fell to the ground with a spurt of hot blood.
The heads of the two deputy commanders of the Black Tiger Flag were suddenly chopped off in front of everyone. Everyone was shocked. The two high and mighty vice commanders were killed just like that? The entire central army was in an uproar.
Everyone in the Six Fingers School was stunned when they saw this.
Pei, Wu, and Heng were dumbfounded. They suddenly realized that Miao Yi's cold, murderous gaze was fixed on the three of them. Their hearts quivered, and they immediately realized that Miao Yi's next target was the three of them. The three of them were certain that Niu Youde would not hesitate to use such a drastic method. Niu Youde didn't even give himself a way out, so how could he give the three of them a way out? Even if the three of them led their troops and acknowledged him as their master, Niu Youde wouldn't let them go.
Since that was the case, they couldn't care less about who would be the next commander. Since they had already come this far, they had to get past this hurdle first.
The three of them exchanged glances. Just as they were about to speak, Miao Yi had already pointed his spear at them and shouted angrily, "Who are you three? Why are you provoking the morale of the army?"
The three of them didn't answer. They only shouted in unison, "Arcane Breaker Bows, ready!"
However, the soldiers in the central army were all looking left and right. They seemed to be hesitating as they raised the bows in their hands. Only three of their trusted aides raised their bows. This situation immediately caused the three of them to be shocked and furious. They shouted angrily again, "Arcane Breaker Bows, kill those who resist!"
Miao Yi interrupted them again, "Does no one know who these three are?"
Yang Zhaoqing and the others were puzzled as to why he would ask when he already knew the answer. They didn't believe that he couldn't tell who these three were. Yang Qing understood Miao Yi's gaze and shouted, "These three are the three remaining Deputy Generals of the central army. They are Wu Feng, Pei Laiming, and Heng Guangling! "
Miao Yi was instantly enraged. He pointed his spear at the three of them and said, "The Deputy Generals under me actually dared to provoke my central army to rebel against their superiors. They even had the audacity to say 'kill those who resist'. How shameless! Who is the one who is rebelling?! "
With the deaths of Kang and Yao, the morale of their subordinates was already in chaos. Pei, Wu, and Heng grew anxious when they saw that there wasn't much response to their orders. They should've just rushed up and finished Miao Yi off. However, they couldn't do so due to the obstruction of the grand defensive formation. Only now did they realize that they shouldn't have retreated from the formation. They had no choice but to work hard to stabilize the morale of the army. Pei Laiming pointed his spear at Miao Yi and retorted, "Niu Youde. You expelled your brothers from the central army, framed the two Vice Generals, and killed your own brothers. Black Tiger Banner will not tolerate this!" He then turned to the troops below and shouted, "Brothers, he already sees us as a thorn in his side. If we let this bastard gain power, the two Vice Generals will serve as a warning to us. He will definitely not let us go. We should take his head and plead to our superiors to restore peace to the Black Tiger Banner!"
"ROAR!" Charcoal roared to the sky, floating in the air and wagging his tail.
Standing on top, Miao Yi took out two jade archives and shouted, "Kang Zhilu and Yao Yuanchu conspired to seize the authority of the Black Tiger Banner and incited the Black Tiger Banner's troops to rebel. The evidence of their crimes is clear. These are the confessions of the two thieves, and Pei Laiming, Heng Guangling, and Wu Feng are their accomplices. This crime will be reported to the Black Dragon Division in a few days. Kang and Yao have personally signed their confessions. Could it be that the central army also wishes to be dragged into the grave by the three thieves? "
Yang Qing and the others glanced at Miao Yi. They really didn't know when Kang and Yao had written down their confessions. Naturally, they knew it was fake.
However, the effect of the rumor was not bad. The morale of the central army was already shaken, and with the addition of the rumor, they were even more shaken. Many of them secretly whispered to each other.
The morale of the army was in chaos. Pei, Wu, and Heng felt that things were not looking good. Wu Feng angrily shouted, "Brothers, don't believe his nonsense. How could the two Vice Commanders possibly write down a confession?!"
Miao Yi then shouted angrily, "Central Army, heed my command. Pei Laiming, Wu Feng, and Heng Guangling have disrupted the morale of the army, rebelled against their superiors, and revealed themselves in public. The evidence of their crimes is clear, and there is no room for denial. The three of them are to be immediately removed from their positions as Deputy Generals, and executed on the spot! The accomplices were coerced by the three thieves. Those who are willing to forsake the dark side for the light will be forgiven, and those who are meritorious in killing the three thieves will be promoted to Vice Commander and Deputy General of the central army, depending on the merits! I will not go back on my word. Military orders are like mountains, and I will never go back on my word. Who dares to perform such a meritorious deed for me, and take the heads of the three thieves? "
The morale of the army was already in chaos. With these words, the atmosphere of the entire central army instantly changed. Many of them began to look at Pei, Wu, and Heng with flickering eyes. The three of them immediately felt as though a storm was brewing. The restless gazes of the crowd truly made the three of them shudder in fear.
At this moment, the three of them were both shocked and fearful. The only thing he had after coming to Black Tiger Banner was a righteous cause. He had been appointed by his superiors to lead the Black Tiger Banner. However, it was precisely this righteous cause that allowed Niu Youde to force them into such a predicament. It had only been a day since he arrived, and he hadn't even gotten a firm foothold yet. This was something that the three of them had never expected. They never thought that Miao Yi would act so decisively. He didn't even fully understand the situation before suddenly making his move, completely catching them off guard.
Heng Guangling shouted, "Niu Youde has brutally murdered the two Vice Commanders. The troops of the Ten Eagle Banners under the two Vice Commanders will surely rush here upon hearing the news. They will not forgive him!"
Miao Yi loudly rebuked, "What a joke! The Ten Eagle Banners are my subordinates. Since when did they become the subordinates of these two traitors? The two thieves are already dead. Could it be that the Ten Eagle Flag Commanders will not listen to this Grand Commander's orders and instead listen to the orders of you three insignificant Deputy Generals? Moreover, the three of you are now nothing and have already been dismissed! "He then waved his spear and pointed at the central army." What are you still hesitating for? Are you waiting for the brothers of the Ten Eagle Banners to arrive so that I can choose another Ten Eagle Banners Commander for promotion? You better think this through. If you don't turn back now, you won't have the chance to in the future. Even if someone else becomes the Commander, no one will dare to allow a traitor to gain a foothold in the central army! "
His last words were the straw that broke the balance in everyone's hearts.
"Die, traitor!" Wu Feng suddenly shouted from behind. His trusted subordinate suddenly thrust his spear forward.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Fortunately, his trusted subordinates managed to block the attack with their weapons in time, helping Wu Feng, who had dodged quickly, to escape the crisis. Under the joint attack of a few of his subordinates, they managed to kill the attacker on the spot.
However, the person who attacked first had undoubtedly ignited a huge fire in the central army. The centurions and decarchs below suddenly shouted, "Prepare the Transcendence Archers!" They pointed their hands at Pei, Wu, and Heng.
The situation instantly spiraled out of control. The three of them were shocked and anxiously shouted, "Run!"
Although the three of them had many subordinates, only a few dozen followed them and quickly fled towards the sky.
"Release! Release! Release … "Hundreds of orders rang out in unison.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh …
Tens of thousands of arrows were released at the same time. Countless rays of light shot towards the sky with an imposing manner, chasing after the dozens of people who were frantically fleeing.
The people who were fleeing in the sky were almost scared out of their wits. Pei, Wu, and Heng didn't expect that the tens of thousands of troops that were under their control earlier would now not even leave them a chance of survival. They thought they could escape and be done with it, but they still suffered a backlash.
They hurriedly dodged around the corner. Countless rays of light followed them around the corner and quickly caught up to them.
Pfff, pfff, pfff …
"Ah …" Screams of agony rang out in the sky.
Even Purple Armors couldn't withstand the attack of the Meteor Arrows made of red crystals, let alone Gold Armors. Just as one of them was hit by an arrow, his body was instantly pierced through by the arrows, leaving bloody holes all over his body. Those who were wearing Purple Armors turned into porcupines.
Pei, Wu, and Heng were not spared. Many of them took out their red crystal shields in time to block the Meteor Arrows, but it was useless. With so many arrows shooting towards them, under the powerful attack, the shields in their hands were quickly shaken out of their hands. They vomited blood from the impact. The moment the shields fell to the ground, their bodies trembled violently in the sky and turned into porcupines. They died with their eyes wide open.
