The Emperor is Above

Chapter 207: It turns out to be the Black Armor Cavalry under the King
"What? The entire army of Panshe was wiped out?"

Qie Nanjiu, who was full of vigor and vitality just a moment ago, now looked incredulous.

He suddenly threw the ox-horn wine cup in his hand to the ground and roared in anger: "Liar, liar, the Lord of the Coiled Snake, the Wu Xiang Shang Wu, the Beast Soul Warrior, the Three-Headed Coiled Snake, the Black Mysterious Divine Servant, and the Ghost King Dharma Body, with such powerful strength and 50,000 troops following them, how could they be destroyed by a mere Guqiu Shangshi Fengtu?"

A dozen or so surviving mid-level totem warriors and several clan leaders of small settlements had experienced many drastic changes in one day. Their faces were still in shock, and they all explained:

"Don't worry, what we said is true. A kid from Guqiu was able to summon dozens of Great Wilderness Dragon Vultures to help in the battle. This is comparable to dozens of third-grade masters. The coalition forces suffered heavy casualties."

"The Wu Xiang Shang Wu spent a huge price to summon the Ghost King's Dharma Body. No matter how powerful Ning Tu's Ghost King's Dharma Body was, it was killed by the boy's supreme sword energy. More than half of the 30,000 people were killed or injured again."

"There were more than 10,000 remnants of our army, but we were chased by the four dragon claw locust tree spirits led by Guqiu Xiaoer. Nearly a thousand of us died of exhaustion on the road."

"The kid from Guqiu blocked our way to Jiming Lake and deliberately drove the remaining troops to Luqiu. It's clear that he has bad intentions. Does the Master have any good plan to deal with it?"

There was no need for these people to explain everything, and when Nan Jijiu saw the miserable appearance of tens of thousands of wild remnants in the camp, he would understand that these people were not lying to him.

The expected powerful reinforcements were completely destroyed, making the siege of Luqiu by the 50,000-strong coalition of wild people ineffective. If they continued to delay, they would probably be attacked by the Xing State's middle division and the city guards and fall into a desperate situation.

Now there are more than 50,000 wild folk coalition forces outside Luqiu City, plus nearly 10,000 wild folk remnants who have escaped back, the number of the army has increased to more than 60,000.

However, the mere increase in numbers did not bring about stronger combat effectiveness. Instead, the morale of the wild folk coalition, which was already not strong enough to begin with, was instantly low because the remnants of the army brought the tragic news that Panshegong's entire army was defeated and almost annihilated.

Before the priest could come up with a good countermeasure, four huge dragon claw locust tree spirits appeared in the distance, moving slowly and firmly.

After learning about the terrifying nature of these tree spirits from the remnants of the army that escaped, the already low-morale coalition army was filled with fear and immediately began to disintegrate on a small scale.

······
"As the Lord expected, upon learning that the Solitary Hill Wilderness Alliance was destroyed, the rest of the Wilderness Alliance will naturally disband!" Gongsun Wu said excitedly, waving his halberd in his hand, "Why not take advantage of the situation and attack?"

Charging into battle and chasing the enemy to the north is the dream of every passionate man in Xing State. Gongsun Wu, the grandson of Wei State, grew up in Xing State since he was a child and was inevitably deeply influenced.

Da Niu and the other twelve young beastmasters couldn't wait to ride on the green rhinoceros beast and launch a great charge to let the wild people's coalition army feel the power of the beast heavy cavalry.

Qing Yi stood on the shoulder of the Dragon Claw Sophora Tree Spirit and smiled and shook his head, denying his private army's eagerness to try: "There is no need for this. Using dozens of people to attack the wild folk coalition of tens of thousands of people, even with the protection of four tree spirits, there will inevitably be some casualties."

"Master, then why have we been chasing the remnants of the wild tribes all this way?" Da Niu asked curiously in a muffled voice, scratching his head.

Seeing that Gongsun Wu, Dongmen Hu, Dongmen Bao and other private soldiers were all puzzled, Qing Yi smiled and explained patiently: "If it is only to protect the safety of Guqiu Fengtu, obtain enough military merits and rewards, and defeat the wild people's coalition army that attacked Guqiu, it is enough.

But I didn't clean up the battlefield and chased the remaining barbarians to Luqiu. I only drove them away along the way without killing them. It was not because I pitied the lives of the barbarians, nor was it to help Luqiu be a good person, but to convey my attitude to the king and the ministers. "

"Convey an attitude? Master, you are running after the barbarian army, and the king and the ministers can't see them, so how can you convey any attitude?" Da Niu became even more confused when he heard this.

"You fool!" Qing Yi couldn't help but laugh and shook his head, "The king passed a lot of information through Old Man Shi last time, but I didn't agree and rejected his face.

I don't know whether he was angry and humiliated by this, or whether some of the ministers were targeting me again. Anyway, no one informed Guqiu about the enfeoffment of titles and officials and the migration of people from all over the capital.

In this case, I will use facts to make it clear to them that even without their help, we can still deal with powerful enemies. This battle belongs to Guqiu Fengtu's military merit, and no one can be corrupted."

Gongsun Wu suddenly realized, "After all, the burial ground of Guqiu is too remote, deep in the Jiming Lake. If you say that this is not the case, it is difficult for others to say anything without knowing the situation. But this time, the Lord led us to drive out the coalition of tens of thousands of wild people to Luqiu to show our military power, and let the coalition of 60,000 wild people fall without a fight. The tens of thousands of people living in Luqiu are all our witnesses."

While the few people were talking, the defenders and armed militia on the top of Luqiu City also keenly noticed the unusual movements of the wild folk coalition outside the city.

When they saw a small group of the coalition forces of the wild folks outside the city were disintegrating, a smoke beam from the beacon tower on the top of the city shot straight into the sky, sending a signal for an attack.

"Uuuuuu——"

A burst of rapid horn sounds soon came from the southwest.

"Rumble--"

I saw an elite army rushing towards the wild folk coalition that was on the verge of collapse.

Qing Yi stood on the shoulders of the dragon-claw locust tree spirit that was more than ten feet tall, and clearly saw that at the front of the army was a group of fifty elite armored cavalry, each of whom had the strength of at least a sixth-rank upper-level armored soldier.

Leading the group was a middle-aged man wearing dark heavy armor with intricate patterns of gold and silver. He rode a fourth-grade Ye horse covered in strange fire and held a two-and-a-half-meter-long gilded drill in his hand. He fiercely tore apart all the enemies in front of him. Even high-level totem warriors could not resist him at all. He was actually a powerful third-grade warrior.

Following closely behind were four armored cavalrymen dressed similarly. The gold and silver patterns on their black heavy armor were a little sparse. They rode on sixth-grade purple chestnut horses and each wielded a lance, halberd, spear, axe and other weapons, roaring to widen the gap in the wild folk army.

Then, dozens of armored cavalry, led by a young man in brocade robes and jade clothes, followed closely behind the five strong men, continuously expanding the results of the battle, and charged towards the core of the wild people's camp.

"It turns out to be the Black Armor Cavalry under the king's command!"

Qing Yi stared at such a powerful army, his eyes full of envy. As the king of a country, Xing Hou's profound background was beyond his reach in a short period of time.

Although Qing Yi believes that given enough time, Guqiu's private army and militia will sooner or later surpass the powerful army under Xing Hou's command, it still takes time to grow.

The fifty black-armored cavalry were like sharp blades, tearing a huge gap in the wild army in a blink of an eye. Following them, a brigade of the middle division of 3,600 people followed closely and charged in.

Gongsun Wu also saw the banners of the Central Division Army and couldn't help but chuckle, "It turns out that this is the army led by Bai Ze, the commander of the Central Division's rear camp. We can be considered to have given him a great gift."

I don't know whether this group of black-armored cavalry and the rear camp of the middle division had just arrived or had been lurking for a long time, but they rushed forward with all their might and killed fiercely, like a hot knife cutting butter.

When the Black Armored Cavalry swept through the camp and killed the commander of the army, Qie Nan Jijiu, and some clan leaders and elders of various tribes, the entire camp no longer had any organized resistance and completely collapsed and fled in all directions.

"Boom boom boom——"

Loud drumbeats were also heard on the top of Luqiu City. More than 5,000 armed militiamen, led by more than 100 soldiers of the Central Division, went out of the city to cooperate with the Central Division to attack the collapsed wild folk army.

When Qing Yi was preparing to wait for the soldiers of the middle division to finish the battle, and then to say hello to Captain Bai Ze before returning to Solitary Hill, the fifty-man black-armored cavalry had already killed their way through the wild folk army and were rushing towards this side.

It’s time for the second update. I have to go home with my wife the day after tomorrow and it will take a whole day to travel by car. I have to prepare the manuscripts in advance today, so I can’t update more.
