Call of the Heroes of Chaos in Another World

Chapter 2232 Filial Piety Strengthens, Fortune General Displays His Power

Of the three—Zhang Jiao, Li Yan, and Zhu Wenlong—only Zhu Wenlong possessed sufficient military talent.

Of the other two, Li Yan was a strategist, while Zhang Jiao's talents did not lie in military affairs.

However, Xuanyuan Huang was clearly aware of this, so he sent Bo Cai and Tao Bao to assist them respectively.

Speaking of which, after Shi Le's eighteen riders scattered and fled, Kui An, Zhi Xiong, and Tao Bao all managed to escape. Yang Zaixing and Deng Jiugong did not pursue them in the direction they had fled.

However, after they escaped danger and learned that Shi Le had actually died in battle, the three men made different choices.

Kui'an and Zhi Xiong decided to leave Dayan. They had originally come to Dayan as generals with Shi Le.

With Shi Le gone, they had nothing left to cherish about the Great Yan Dynasty.

However, only Tao Bao ultimately chose to return to Da Yan and fight for Da Yan until the very last moment.

Of these three cities, the one guarded by Li Yan was the first to fall.

Firstly, the city where Li Yan was stationed was directly facing Yue Fei. Secondly, it faced the most powerful enemy force.

Secondly, Li Yan had a conflict with his subordinate general Niu Jinxing, which gave Yue Fei the opportunity to seize the opportunity.

As a result, Li Yan's city was breached after only three days of defense.

Li Yan was merely a strategist, yet he commanded an entire army, which naturally made Niu Jinxing, who considered himself superior, resentful.

As for Tao Bao, in Niu Jinxing's view, he was nothing more than a subordinate of Shi Le back then.

If Shi Le were still alive, the other party could ride roughshod over him, and he wouldn't say a word.

However, one of Shi Le's underlings, a stray dog ​​who had escaped from the Qingnan battlefield, had also stepped on his head, just like Li Yan had done, and Niu Jinxing was not convinced at all.

With a formidable enemy at hand, and they resorting to such tactics from within, how could this city possibly be defended?
Sometimes, when it comes to fighting a war, you can't just look at your own abilities; you also have to see if your opponent pulls some unexpected tricks.

The internal chaos, coupled with Yue Fei's timely seizing of a sliver of opportunity—the moment he found a weakness—led him to order Li Cunxiao to lead his Beiwei Army to the first assault, which enabled them to capture the city in one fell swoop.

In this battle, Li Cunxiao single-handedly fought against ten generals, including Guo Shiheng, Guo Shizhu, Dong Jun, and Tao Bao, and killed them all as easily as cutting melons and vegetables, giving them almost no chance to escape.

After all, among these people, only Tao Bao possessed the strength of the peak of the Heavenly Realm.

Moreover, his peak Heavenly level was achieved by using that combination skill from back then, and his actual combat strength is not comparable to that of a true peak Heavenly level.

Therefore, apart from using two moves on him, Li Cunxiao basically took down the rest with one move each.

"Ding! Li Cunxiao has killed Tao Bao, one of the eighteen riders. He has been affected by the combo skill 'Wolves Devour Tiger'. His leadership attribute has been permanently increased by 1. Li Cunxiao's leadership has been permanently increased to 93."

Like the Yang Family Generals, this combo skill only loses its effectiveness when the last person is dead.

Therefore, after killing Tao Bao, Li Cunxiao also received a permanent boost to one random attribute.

As for Li Guo, while Li Cunxiao was entangled with Tao Bao and his men, Yuan Zongdi seized the opportunity, rushed forward, and directly stole the credit.

Next, the city that Zhu Wenlong was guarding was breached.

This battle relied entirely on Di Qing's desperate efforts. In the campaign against Yan, all armies were victorious, winning battle after battle along the way.

Only their army suffered a great loss at the hands of Xuanyuan Huang when they first entered the East Sea Route.

If it weren't just their company that lost the battle, then it wouldn't be a big deal.

However, given that all the other armies were resilient and had strong mental fortitude, it was quite unusual for their side to suffer a defeat.

Therefore, Di Qing personally organized a suicide squad and set an example by serving as its commander. This time, the commander of the suicide squad was always on the front line of the siege.

Di Qing's desperate appearance actually left the other generals in that battle with mixed feelings.

After all, we all shared the defeat that time.

But now that Di Qing is acting so recklessly, how could the rest of them not follow?
For this reason, apart from Pallas, who was temporarily a guest general, and Wang Feng, who was seriously injured, Pei Yuanqing, Feng Qianlang, Li Feng, Chen Lan, Ji Ling, Yue Jiu and other generals all joined the suicide squad.

Even Yao Xing, who was also injured, had no choice but to play despite his injury.

Although he was also injured, he was not to the same extent as Wang Feng and still had the ability to continue fighting.

Under these circumstances, led by Di Qing, a group of generals and three thousand daredevils fought a bloody battle for seven whole days.

During this time, Li Feng, Chen Lan, and Yang Hong died in battle. Finally, on the seventh day, Di Qing, who had been hit by two arrows, led a suicide squad to be the first to breach the city and wash away the shame with his military achievements.

In this battle, Di Qing killed Meng Kai, a former general of Dongcang, and fought against several generals, including Xue Renyue, Li Gun, Wei Dingguo, and Hao Siwen, while still wounded.

If he were not injured, even if these people joined forces, they would not be a match for him.

However, now it's a case of a tiger fallen into the plains being bullied by dogs.

Of the two arrows that struck him, one landed right on his shoulder blade, which greatly affected his ability to draw his sword.

So much so that, after a fierce battle, although he successfully killed Wei Dingguo, he was stabbed in the thigh by Li Gun, who seized the opportunity.

The knife pierced his thigh, which, while not threatening his life, made his situation even more difficult.

After all, this was on the city wall, and the few people were fighting on foot.

A thigh injury has the same direct impact on combat effectiveness as an arm injury.

It was precisely because of this that Di Qing became a renowned general in the Han Dynasty, but he almost died at the hands of three minor characters.

Fortunately, at the crucial moment, Cheng Yaojin's lucky charm came into play. Yao Xing, who had also followed the charge up the city wall, discovered Di Qing's predicament after killing Guo Sheng.

With the addition of Yao Xing, a master of god-level skill, even though Yao Xing was also fighting with injuries, he was still far superior to the other three.

Yao Xing killed Hao Siwen, the weakest of the three, with a single spear thrust, and then killed Xue Renyue within five rounds.

During this time, the wounded Di Qing seized upon Li Gun's momentary lapse in concentration due to Yao Xing's arrival, and with a single stroke, cut him down from the city walls.

The two joined forces and completely eliminated these people.
