"Someone, tell Young Master to be on full alert!"
Xianyu Zhongtong's eyebrows rose as he suddenly said.
"But …"
The messenger hesitated and glanced up the mountain. At this moment, Wang Chong was already in a state of extreme exhaustion. He was almost single-handedly maintaining the operations of the entire army.
Sixty thousand soldiers against three hundred thousand soldiers of the Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army. One could easily imagine how enormous the pressure on Wang Chong was.
He was completely focused on commanding the army and had no time to spare for anything else.
At a time like this, no one could bear to disturb him with any miscellaneous matters.
"There's no time to worry about that! If there's a problem on any of the fronts, we can still make up for it, but if Duan Gequan takes action, all that awaits us is a complete wipeout. I have a feeling that Duan Gequan is about to take action. That viper of the Erhai won't be able to endure for that long. "
Xianyu Zhongtong said.
As his mortal enemy in the southwest, Xianyu Zhongtong had an intense intuition about Duan Gequan. Duan Gequan's patience was not a sign of retreat. On the contrary, it was a sign that he was about to explode.
The messenger nodded and quickly left.
Meanwhile, Xianyu Zhongtong's surroundings fell silent once more, as if this life and death struggle and the intense battle on the battlefield had nothing to do with him.
Duan Gequan, ah, Duan Gequan … no matter what you're planning, no matter what you want to do, I'll keep my eyes on you. I won't give you the slightest chance!
These thoughts flickered through Xianyu Zhongtong's eyes, but he quickly calmed down.
In this battle, Duan Gequan was fated to be his!
… …
Time had become meaningless in this place. The battle on the mountain range was extremely tragic, and the intensity had reached an extreme point. Every moment, a large number of Mengshe – Ü-Tsang and Tang Dynasty soldiers were falling.
There were so many corpses that they were even rolling down the mountain.
The originally brown mountain had long ago been dyed scarlet. The air was suffused with the thick stench of blood.
"Almost there!"
Far away at the foot of the mountain, a pair of eyes blinked and then quickly disappeared without a trace.
…
The surface of the mountain was filled with the sounds of fierce fighting.
Near the top of the mountain, the fluttering black flag of the Annam Protectorate was particularly eye-catching. Compared to other places on the mountain, the area under the flagpole was extremely quiet.
But under this silence, there was a clear sense of unease and anxiety in the air.
"Why? What was Duan Gequan thinking? Are they really not going to do anything? "
On the mountain, the generals around Xianyu Zhongtong were all staring at the carriage, as well as Duan Gequan, who was sitting on it. The battle had already reached this point. Both sides had suffered heavy casualties, but Duan Gequan still showed no signs of making a move.
"No way! Could it be that Gelofeng and Duan Gequan are going to end things like this? "
Xianyu Zhongtong gritted his teeth.
In this battle, he had maintained absolute calm for more than 70% of the time. But at this moment, Xianyu Zhongtong had to admit that he had lost his composure.
Duan Gequan was definitely not a weak and incompetent coward. On the contrary, his lethality was far greater than that of others. At this point in the battle, it was impossible for him to remain indifferent.
Xianyu Zhongtong knew that there had to be something he had overlooked.
There was clearly nothing in front of him, but the sense of danger in the air was getting stronger.
This bad feeling made Duan Gequan go crazy!
"It can't be, it can't be! … Duan Gequan, you won't be so obedient! "
Xianyu Zhongtong clenched his fists and stared at the figure in the distance. The figure hidden under the crown and behind Gelofeng.
The scene of the battle of Erhai suddenly appeared before his eyes. Corpses and blood filled his eyes. There were also tens of thousands of corpses from the Annam Protectorate. Even the vast Erhai was dyed red.
Rather than saying that they had lost to Mengshe Zhao's enormous army, it was more like they had lost to the man who had been hiding in the dark. It was that man who had pierced through the Annam Protectorate's defensive line at the most crucial moment and buried the 100,000 Annam Protectorate soldiers on the rotten Erhai plains.
"No matter what, I will not let that happen again!"
Xianyu Zhongtong clenched his fists tightly. His eyes were bloodshot.
"Ah!"
Suddenly, a cry came from the side. The generals of the Annam Protectorate looked at Xianyu Zhongtong in fear.
"Sir, blood!"
Something wet dripped onto his hand. Xianyu Zhongtong touched it with his hand, only to discover that blood had come out of his nose at some point.
Did I overuse my brain?
Xianyu Zhongtong looked at the blood on his hand mockingly. The blood reflected a pale, twisted, and blurry face. Then, he looked at his own reflection. Suddenly, something seemed to flash across his mind.
Xianyu Zhongtong stood there in a daze. His mind was blank. Although there was nothing in front of him, Xianyu Zhongtong's body was cold.
"Not good!"
In the blink of an eye, Xianyu Zhongtong suddenly began to scream, his entire face contorted in extreme fear.
"Young Master, be careful! — — "
Xianyu Zhongtong abruptly turned toward the summit and shouted at the top of his lungs.
Xianyu Zhongtong felt that he was really happy, but unfortunately, it was all too late …
"Boom!"
There was an earth-shattering explosion. On the summit, Wang Chong had just looked in Xianyu Zhongtong's direction in shock. In the next moment, it was as if a giant nuclear bomb had fallen on the mountain. Countless Annam Protectorate soldiers screamed as they were blasted into the sky by a terrifying force and sent flying in all directions.
Many people were still in the air when they were shredded to pieces by that terrifying force. Their severed limbs flew through the air.
"Roar!"
With an earth-shattering roar, a black, two-headed, four-armed demon god wielding a large saber suddenly rose from the ground. It appeared at the edge of the Myriad Stars Formation. Boom! In the southeast, the defensive line that Wang Chong had painstakingly built up collapsed. Countless shieldbearers, axemen, spearmen, and even the ballistae behind them were all shredded to pieces by this one strike.
The saber energy dozens of zhang long even split the ground in two, plowing a deep trench. And within the trench, a thick corrosive black mist even emerged.
"Ah! … "
Shrill screams filled the air. At that moment, it was as if time had stopped.
"Duan Gequan!"
As he stared at the massive gap that had been torn open, Wang Chong's heart stopped, a look of despair appearing on his youthful face.
"How could it be him?"
The war between the Tang Dynasty and Mengshe – Ü-Tsang had reached an extremely crucial moment. Wang Chong had never imagined that Duan Gequan would strike at this moment, and without any warning whatsoever.
What made Wang Chong even more terrified was that Duan Gequan had chosen the weakest and most flawed part of the Myriad Stars Formation.
"Boom!"
The Myriad Stars Formation had been operating like a massive machine, devouring countless Mengshe – Ü-Tsang soldiers, but at this moment, it suddenly came to a halt as if it had suffered a heavy blow.
Duan Gequan's attack was like a dagger stabbing into the heart of the Annam Protectorate, completely disrupting Wang Chong's rhythm and shattering the Myriad Stars Formation.
"Mengshe Zhao soldiers, attack with me! Today will be the day that the Annam Protectorate is completely buried!"
Duan Gequan's voice came from the mouth of the two-headed, four-armed demon god, echoing over the battlefield.
This was the first time he had made a sound on this mountain, but it had changed the entire battlefield, reversed the course of the war in the southwest!
Roooar!
"Attack with the Great General!"
"Kill our way to the summit and slaughter the Annam Protectorate!"
"The Great General is mighty! Our Mengshe Zhao is about to win!"
… …
The morale of the dispirited Mengshe Zhao army instantly soared the moment Duan Gequan appeared. Thousands of Mengshe Zhao soldiers roared and followed Duan Gequan, madly charging toward the summit through the gap Duan Gequan had opened.
"Kiiiill! ! "
It was not just Mengshe Zhao's army. Countless Ouzan soldiers followed close behind.
The effects of Duan Gequan's actions were devastating, and like a chain reaction, the entire Annam Protectorate on the summit was pushed back again and again. In just a few moments, the gap Duan Gequan had opened had grown several times larger.
"Kiiiill! ! "
The shouts from the summit shook the heavens like a tsunami. The tens of thousands of soldiers of the Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army surged forward like a tide, charging into the gap.
"Hahaha, wonderful! The Great General has succeeded!"
At the base of the mountain, Fengjiayi heartily laughed, his face red with excitement.
"Gequan, you truly have not disappointed Us!"
In the middle of the army, Gelofeng's eyes shone with a dazzling light. At this point in the battle, Mengshe Zhao and Ouzan were finally showing signs of winning this battle.
From Gelofeng's perspective, the Annam Protectorate on the summit was already in tatters, on the verge of collapse.
Whether it was the timing, the location, or the methods, Duan Gequan had executed them all to perfection.
This was a true sure-kill strike!
"Xianyu Zhongtong, you've lost!"
Gelofeng couldn't help but smile as she gazed at the summit where the black banner was fluttering.
From start to finish, Xianyu Zhongtong and his generals had not moved at all. How could Gelofeng and Duan Gequan not understand what he was thinking?
Alas, when the devil grew one foot, the dao grew ten. In the end, Xianyu Zhongtong had still lost to Duan Gequan.
… …
"This is impossible!"
