Chapter 282 His Royal Highness King Zhao of Qin, Comes to See Ouyang Shucai, Marquis of Zhenxi
On the mountain road of Yingchou Cliff, piles of soldiers' corpses piled up in the narrow road, blocking the way.

From where one could see, there were more than a dozen piles of corpses blocking the mountain path.

"Humph, they are all soldiers of Great Yan, dying here in vain."

The black-armored warrior gritted his teeth and roared in anger.

The two generals behind him also had hatred in their eyes.

"Guo Tangyuan is truly incompetent. If he had been a little more careful, there wouldn't have been such heavy casualties."

A warrior with innate true energy surging in his body shouted in a low voice.

Another person shook his head: "It's not that he's careless, it's that he's eager to make a contribution. In his eyes, a mere thousand or so soldiers from Gubei City are nothing."

Up ahead, the black-armored general's face twitched slightly as he took a deep breath. "For Great Yan, I'm sorry to all of you brothers. I, Li Yuncheng, will set up memorial tablets for you brothers one day and personally perform the ceremony."

The black-armored general said this and waved his hand.

The soldiers behind him rushed forward to the pile of corpses, pressed down with their spears, and picked up the corpses one by one from the cliff, clearing the mountain path.

The army's progress was quite fast, and in just a moment they had already crossed most of the mountain road.

By this time, smoke and dust could be seen rising across the mountain road towards Gubei City.

That must be the army from Gubei City.

"Catch up with them and leave no one behind." The black-armored general, Lieutenant General Li Yuncheng, shouted in a low voice.

The generals in front rode their horses out of the mountain road.

In the rear, the soldiers stretched for several miles along the mountain road.

On the mountain road at the rear, Guo Tangyuan looked forward, and only breathed a sigh of relief when Lieutenant General Li Yuncheng and other generals rushed out of the mountain road.

A complicated look appeared on his face.

I don't know whether I am expecting an ambush or hoping there is no ambush.

Unconsciously, he looked up at the top of the cliff.

A huge horse leg came crashing down on his head.

"Bam—"

The horse's leg hit him two feet in front of him, smashing the heads of the two soldiers and sending their bodies falling off the cliff.

"Enemy, enemy, enemy—"

Guo Tangyuan stuttered, but before he could call out, a huge horse's butt fell from the cliff beside him, smashing the bodies of several soldiers and splattering blood and flesh everywhere.

"Enemy attack——"

A miserable calling voice rang out.

On the top of the cliff, there are long horse legs, a hundred-pound horse head, and a round horse butt...

A pile of blood, flesh and rocks fell down.

awful.

miserable.

It no longer matters what falls from a cliff hundreds of feet high.

A fist-sized stone could easily crush a soldier to death on the mountain road, let alone a warhorse weighing hundreds of pounds?
Rocks, carrying the blood and flesh of horses, rolled down, and the mountain road was in chaos.

"retreat--"

“Quickly retreat——”

Guo Tangyuan shouted loudly and pulled the soldiers around him back.

"We can't retreat, the Lieutenant General and his men are ahead!"

On the mountain road, soldiers shouted loudly.

Guo Tangyuan gritted his teeth and swung the long sword in one hand.

"Retreat, retreat, if you don't retreat you will die——"

He was right. Rocks and flesh were still flying down from the cliff. If they didn't retreat, they would all die.

For those powerful people in the innate realm on the top of the cliff, it is not difficult to smash the rocks and send them down the mountain path.

The soldiers who wanted to charge forward on the mountain road could not catch up with the generals who had already crossed the mountain road. Without anyone to lead them, they suffered casualties.

The soldiers standing on the mountain road in a daze, not knowing what to do, could only let the rocks fall on their heads.

As the soldiers in the rear retreated, the soldiers on the mountain road finally turned back.

When Lieutenant General Li Yuncheng came back in a rage, the army had lost nearly a thousand soldiers.

There were no ambushes on the cliff.

"Guo Tangyuan——" Li Yuncheng roared.

Guo Tangyuan hurried forward, bowed and said, "Sir, I have gathered the soldiers. Although we have suffered heavy losses this time, we have not—"

Before he could finish his words, Guo Tangyuan's expression changed drastically and he rolled to the side.

"boom--"

The knife flashed and rocks flew everywhere. If Guo Tangyuan had not had strong cultivation, this knife would have taken his life directly.

Guo Tangyuan's face was pale. He looked up at Li Yuncheng, whose face was ashen and whose long sword was unsheathed.

"Commander-in-Chief, Commander-in-Chief..."

Guo Tangyuan was confused. He didn't know why the lieutenant general wanted to kill him.

"Capture Guo Tangyuan who fled from the battlefield, and deal with him after we capture Gubei City." Li Yuncheng's voice rang out.

Several soldiers stepped forward and arrested Guo Tangyuan.

Guo Tangyuan didn't dare to resist and just watched Li Yuncheng leave with a blank expression.

"Ah," the black-robed scholar, his clothes a little disheveled, rode over, shook his head, and looked at Guo Tangyuan, "I gave you a chance, but you're useless..."

"The entire army will rest on the spot, and the scouts will be on alert. In half an hour, we will take the main road to Gubei City." The voice of Lieutenant General Li Yuncheng came from the front.

……

The soldiers of Gubei City, who had won two great victories, followed Master Gu towards Gubei City.

Along the way, the soldiers were in high spirits, and the Blue Wolf Cavalry also looked up to Master Gu, the military sergeant of Gubei City.

"Sergeant Gu, I didn't expect you to be such a good fighter."

"Yeah, it's such an easy win, it's really satisfying."

The two Blue Wolf Cavalry captains spoke with admiration, which made Master Gu feel a little proud, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"What a shame! If the Northern Yan army dares to leave from Eagle Cliff again, we can ambush them a third time." Xun Tao said regretfully, "During the martial arts deduction, we set up three ambushes like this."

The corner of Master Gu's mouth twitched and his smile froze.

If you can’t speak, can you please stop talking?

Ahead is Gubei City. Judging from the soldiers gathering on the city walls, they must have begun to strengthen their defenses.

Originally, Master Gu and others had no confidence in defending Gubei City.

But after this battle, everyone became less timid.

Especially those who had been trained in martial arts, such as Master Gu and Xun Tao, all had endless thoughts in their minds at this moment.

Those deductions during martial arts training seem to be really useful?
Then it seems that the deduction of tactics when defending a city can also be used?
For a moment, everyone's blood boiled.

----------------

In front of the Zhenxi Army camp.

King Zhao Ying Ji stood side by side with Zhang Yuan and Du Chongjiu.

With an army of over 100,000 in front, even a Grandmaster would seem insignificant.

The Grandmaster is said to be able to defeat ten thousand enemies, but when facing such a huge army, no matter how strong his personal martial arts skills are, he cannot win.

"I'll go with you." Du Chongjiu looked at King Zhao.

Zhang Yuan pressed the hilt of the knife at his waist without saying a word.

King Zhao shook his head and waved his hand, saying, "You don't have to go."

“Ouyang Shu wouldn’t believe your cultivation level if you went there.”

King Zhao wanted to go to the Zhenxi Army camp to meet Ouyang Shucai.

Just as he said, Zhang Yuan and Du Chongjiu were both at the Grandmaster level. If they went to the camp to meet Ouyang Shucai, Ouyang Shucai would be on guard, so naturally there was not much trust in them.

"If Your Highness doesn't return within an hour, I will charge in and kill him." Zhang Yuan said lightly.

King Zhao looked back at him, smiled and shook his head, then straightened his clothes and strode forward.

Du Chongjiu took a step forward, and the great power of the Grandmaster Realm rose from his body, like a dragon in the clouds.

"Your Highness, King Zhao of Qin, is here to see Ouyang Shucai, Marquis of Zhenxi—"

Du Chongjiu's voice echoed throughout the area within a radius of a hundred miles.

The sword power in his body shot directly at Niu Dou, and the power of the grandmaster surged.

In the front, the blood and energy of the soldiers in the camp were shaking violently, and teams of soldiers quickly gathered and formed battle arrays.

When King Zhao arrived in front of the camp, a group of soldiers were already waiting there.
