Chapter 416 Battle Front
The white horse moved forward slowly and arrived in front of the big tent.

Looking at the still burning tent, Ou Zanghua asked calmly, "Did anyone survive?"

Qian Buchu, who followed closely behind, bowed and replied, "Reporting to the Governor, according to post-war statistics, the first round of artillery fire had accurately hit this place and successfully killed the leader of the Kalaqin tribe."

Upon hearing this, Ou Zanghua nodded slightly to show his approval.

The first batch of artillery shells fired were the sweet shells carefully developed by Taoist Master Wang Chengwu. Their uniqueness lay in the fact that they were mixed with white sugar, making them the most powerful shells available to the Ming army.

However, sugar was so precious that even Ou Zanghua only brought 200 shells this time, and half of them were consumed in the first round of shelling.

But looking at the current results, the enemy headquarters was destroyed with just one round of artillery fire. This achievement is undoubtedly worthwhile.

This "deal" is truly worth the money.

However, Ou Zanghua knew very well that this battle was only one part of the entire battle line, and the next one would be the real test.

At the same time, on the top of Funing City, the garrison commander Gui Yong was waving his arms and directing everyone's actions.

This time, in addition to the soldiers, men, women, young and old in the city were also mobilized. Everyone performed their duties, obeyed Gui Yong's arrangements, and tried their best to resist the attack of Doyanwei.

The people living in this land knew better than anyone what tragic and dismal consequences would follow if the Mongols conquered the city.

Deng Bagong was an expert in martial arts and volunteered to guard the most dangerous part of the city wall.

Facing those Doyanwei soldiers who were climbing up, Deng Bagong used the "wasp into a hole" move, and the tip of his sword was accurate and pierced the enemy's chest in an instant, cleanly and neatly.

Then, he turned around and performed the Songshan Leg Technique - Immortal Lying on the Cloud. With a fierce kick, he kicked the enemy who was attacking from behind and sent him flying, falling directly under the city wall.

Afterwards, Deng Bagong raised both swords, like a dragon emerging from the sea, skillfully integrating the essence of Shaolin stick techniques, first rowing the oars and setting sail, with the flash of sword light, he swept an enemy soldier back. Then, with a whirlwind sweeping leaf move, the sword shadow swept in like a tornado, and the other two enemy soldiers were also knocked off the wall by this fierce attack.

Two more enemy soldiers climbed up the city wall and tried to launch a surprise attack on Deng Bagong, but were suddenly killed by arrows.

Deng Bagong looked back and saw Zhang Jingchao standing on the balcony, shouting at him, "Brother Deng, I'm here to help you!"

"Junior Brother Zhang, you are really fooling around!" Deng Baguo was slightly stunned and couldn't help but curse angrily.

"Hahaha, senior brother is on the battlefield killing the enemy, how can I just lie down and recuperate?" Zhang Jingchao laughed, pulled out two more arrows, and shot to death two enemy soldiers who were climbing up the wall.

In the enemy camp far away, Hua Dang was riding on a horse, his eyes slightly narrowed and his gaze as sharp as torches, tightly locking onto the dynamics of the battlefield ahead, his expression revealing unquestionable seriousness.

If he couldn't even take a city like this with so few defenders, how could he have the face to ask his soldiers to follow him?

However, at this moment, a scout from the Red Army came running over and said, "Chief, we found a Ming army fifteen miles away. Erqi, Enhena Shun, and Gongbilige have been killed by the Ming army's Yebushou in order to protect me."

At this time, several more scouts of the Red Army came back. They all escaped under the cover of their companions and reported the intelligence to Hua Dang.

"Send the order immediately! The rear army will change its formation to the front army, and everyone should be ready to fight!" Hua Dang made a prompt decision, his voice was as loud as a bell, he whipped his mount and galloped towards the rear army while shouting loudly.

The elite troops of Wuliangha and Duoyanwei responded quickly, and the rear army turned around in a chaos. At this time, human figures began to appear in the distant sky.

Hua Dang was shocked and realized that he could only use the rear army as the main force to defeat the Ming army's vanguard first, only then would there be a possibility of breaking the deadlock.

He came to the front of the team, looked at the soldiers with confused eyes, and knew that he had to wake them up.

So, Hua Dang took a deep breath and shouted: "Warriors, the Ming reinforcements have arrived, but who are we?!"

"We are eagles soaring over the grasslands, sharp blades flying through the strong winds, and indomitable and fearless warriors between heaven and earth! Our courage is as vast and boundless as the grasslands! Our strength is so powerful that it can shake the towering mountains and rewrite the contours of the earth."

"Although the Ming people came with iron weapons, they are just seedlings that have not yet experienced the wind and rain in front of the real warriors. Use the swords in our hands to tell these seedlings what the pride of the sons of the grassland is! What is the bravery passed down from generation to generation!"

"who are we?!"

Hua Dang rode his horse, running ahead of the soldiers and shouting: "We are the invincible grassland warriors! Horses, armor, blades, and even the wider world will be the rewards we deserve after victory, and the highest praise for our glory and sacrifice."

"Brothers, follow me and charge forward to crush the blood and bones of the Ming people!!!"

Hua Dang turned his horse around, took the long sword from his personal guard, raised it high, and charged forward.

Behind him, the elite cavalry of the Wuliangha and Duoyan Guards roared in unison like a surging torrent: "Charge!!!"

The roar and the sound of horse hooves intertwined together to form an unstoppable and powerful force, and they fearlessly rushed towards the Ming army positions that had just emerged.

The army that appeared on the opposite side was none other than the three thousand battalions of brave warriors under Qiu Yue's command.

Facing the cavalry rushing in like a tide, Qiu Yue remained calm. He raised his spear high and shouted in a loud voice: "Follow me! Whoever kills the enemy will be rewarded with three taels of silver!"

This order seemed to have a tremendous force, instantly igniting the fighting spirit in the hearts of the three thousand soldiers.

Even the originally chaotic sounds of horse hooves seemed to be pulled by some mysterious force, gathering into a whole, resounding between heaven and earth.

close!

Closer!
Hua Dang gathered his strength in his arms and unleashed an extremely powerful move, the "Li Pi Hua Shan" (force to split Huashan). The blade came down suddenly with a whistling sound.

Seeing this, Qiu Yue remained calm and held his spear horizontally. In an instant, a deafening sound of "clang" was heard, which made the eardrums of the surrounding soldiers ache slightly and their hearts tremble.

Then, amidst the "sizzling" sound of iron friction that made people feel physically uncomfortable, the two figures staggered apart.

In this brief confrontation, Qiu Yue and Hua Dang both felt a hint of surprise in their hearts. They had never expected that the other party possessed such amazing power.

However, compared to Hua Dang, Qiu Yue was better. Facing the subsequent cavalry charge that came like a tide, he waved his spear like a dragon emerging from the sea, and with a sweep, he directly knocked several enemy soldiers off their horses.

On the other hand, Hua Dang was closely protected by his personal guards and did not engage in a fight with the soldiers of the Three Thousand Battalion.
