It all started with one person becoming a shaman, but the Stand user...

"Kill them—!!!"

Outside the city, the Liang army's banners remained unmoved.

Driven by the officers' roars, the soldiers surged toward the city wall like a tidal wave.

Even before that, there were many other strong men who were obviously captured temporarily from the surrounding area, carrying only simple spears or sharpened wooden sticks.

Driven along, they were filled into the city wall like expendable resources.

Meanwhile, the Jin soldiers defending the city walls were also exhausted.

They could only do their best to smash down the rolling logs and rocks, and use their spears to stab down the enemies climbing up the ladder.

Liang soldiers were constantly being pierced by spear tips, letting out shrill screams as they fell from mid-air.

The corpses of both sides were crisscrossed and piled up into shocking mounds.

Warm blood flowed like a stream from the cracks in the pile of corpses.

Every moment, Luzhou City seemed to be teetering on the brink of collapse.

The trigger for this sudden and fierce attack was related to the main characters who were currently in the city.

The protagonist of this world, Li Xingyun, previously rescued his close friend, Zhang Zifan, who was trapped in Liang Camp. Zhang Zifan is also an important second male lead in this world.

Leading the main characters on an adventure to infiltrate the Liang army camp.

Although they rescued Zhang Zifan and managed to escape successfully.

However, many members, including Li Xingyun, were seriously injured and suffered huge losses.

Therefore, they had no choice but to temporarily retreat into the relatively safe city of Luzhou to find a place to rest and recuperate in hopes of recovery.

However, due to the faction to which the female protagonist Ji Ruxue belongs.

The released homing pigeons inadvertently revealed their location and were discovered by Liang Jun.

This information was quickly reported to Commander-in-Chief Liang, who was stationed at the rear.

This greatly accelerated Liang's attack on Luzhou, making the offensive unprecedentedly fierce and brutal.

Now, under the constant bombardment of catapults.

The already overburdened city of Luzhou collapsed amidst continuous attacks and internal chaos!

"Boom!"

With a loud bang and billowing smoke, the south gate of Luzhou City was breached!

Amidst the smoke and dust, a fierce general from the Liang army rode a tall horse, wielding a thick spear, and led the way, slowly entering the city through the broken city gates and the corpses of the guards.

His voice boomed like a bell, brimming with domineering authority, as he arrogantly issued the order:

"Li Xingyun is in Luzhou City. Announce to the entire city that anyone harboring a wanted criminal will be executed without mercy."

But just then, a figure suddenly sprang up from the collapsed city gate behind them!

With swift movements like a leopard, it charged towards the fierce Liang general who had just entered the city!

The man moved so fast that he left afterimages, skillfully darting past from the side and dodging the heavy spear that the fierce general instinctively grabbed and swept towards him as he sensed the movement.

In the blink of an eye, this person had already approached the horse's side.

With one hand, he grabbed the arm guard of the fierce general, and with the other hand, he followed suit, blocking the hand that might swing back the iron spear.

He used his hands in a cross-arms motion, trying to use skill and explosive force to pull the fierce general off his horse!

"Hmm? Arrogant!"

That fierce general was none other than Wang Yanzhang, the vanguard general of the Liang army, who had a historical prototype!

Despite his initial shock, he remained calm and shouted. His right hand, holding the gun, remained still, while his left hand, which had been grabbed, transformed from a palm into a fist and, with a whooshing force, smashed fiercely towards the attacker's face!

Before the fist even landed, the chilling wind from it made it hard to breathe!

"boom!"

A dull thud of flesh colliding!

They discovered that the Stand [Red Hot Chili Pepper] had enhanced their physique, yet they still couldn't subdue the opponent.

The newcomer had no choice but to let go, and the two exchanged a simple palm strike without any fancy moves!

The figure that attacked let out a muffled groan, using the force to float back several steps before landing steadily on the ground.

It was Qing Hemiao, who had changed into a set of action-packed clothes that allowed him to move around easily!

He felt as if he had been hit by a speeding armored vehicle; his arm was sore and numb, and his blood was churning.

[You launched an attack on Lv48 Wang Yanzhang... You encountered a counterattack using Fighting Skills (Minor Mastery), and a judgment will be made.]

[The attack failed. The opponent has inflicted minor damage on you, which will subsequently cause knockback effects, etc.]

How cruel!

He truly deserves to be called a fierce general who will leave his mark on history!

The level difference and the suppression of basic attributes are too obvious.

Qinghe Miao turned his head slightly and silently spat out a mouthful of saliva with a fishy, ​​sweet taste.

After calming the tremors in his internal organs, he wiped his mouth with his thumb and looked up at the towering figure on horseback.

Wang Yanzhang had already reined in his restless warhorse, and with a look of scrutiny and murderous intent, he pointed his iron spear at Qinghe Miao, his voice like thunder:

"Who dares to ambush me? State your name!"

"Taihang Mountains, clear waters."

Qinghe Miao straightened up and bowed respectfully to Wang Yanzhang on horseback.

He announced his name in this life.

The person who arrived was Qinghe Miao, who had timed it perfectly and led the Taihang Army to rescue Luzhou City.

During this period of time.

He made full use of his stand-in, the Purple Hermit's, almost "cheating" intelligence gathering ability to repeatedly and accurately ambush Liang Jun's supply troops.

This not only weakened Liang's army's logistics, but also allowed the Taihang Army to accumulate more supplies and prisoners.

During this period, the results of the university entrance exams for Under One Person were also released.

He also took some time to go back to the main world to deal with it.

Fortunately, he may have already rebelled in advance, so he no longer needs to achieve the goal of failing the exam.

The results were as expected, which was ideal.

With a total score of over 600, I easily passed the first-tier university admission line.

Without much hesitation, referring to his previous plans, he chose and applied to a first-tier university outside the Great Wall for the major of "Agricultural Insects and Pest Control".

There are two reasons for choosing this one.

Firstly, Qinghe Miao doesn't need a particularly good major; he's unlikely to use it in the future, nor does he need to rely on it.

And with the inherent advantages of being a time traveler, they can compete with ordinary students who have endured years of painful studying.

I already felt a bit guilty about occupying the toilet without actually using it.

What's more, he ultimately resorted to cheating for his own mother.

I'd rather avoid taking up opportunities with people who need me more.

Choosing a relatively niche field can be seen as a way of repaying the world for its karmic debts.

Actually, he originally planned to study law and medicine as well.

Secondly, it stems from his rebirth in this life.

I believe I was born with confidence.

Knowing that their future is destined to be smoother than others, they have a very good mindset.

Even if their family was poor when they were young, they had the temperament of an adult and the foresight to endure the hardships of rural life.

There are only a few things that he has never been able to completely overcome, even with his extraordinary abilities.

Those are the ubiquitous and diverse insects of the countryside.

These little creatures seem completely unreasonable, especially when he is young and his abilities are limited, making them impossible to defend against.

Moreover, even if you can prevent them from getting infected, killing them or being contaminated by them will still cause physical discomfort.

Real children might not care that much.

But with the soul of an adult, he had spent over a decade in the city in his previous life, and found it somewhat unbearable.

Although his family worshipped the White Fairy, inviting her to help was certainly effective.

But it's impossible to constantly trouble the immortals for such a trivial matter.

What's even more infuriating is that the insects reproduce extremely quickly, even if a deity intervenes once.

It didn't take long before it made a comeback.

Even if the deities were willing to help, his body at that time couldn't withstand such frequent summoning of deities!

Chapter 86 Taking Advantage of the Situation

Qinghe Miao suddenly understood why "insect swarms" were listed as one of the four major natural disasters in the online novel circle of his previous life.

These are just ordinary insects, yet they are so difficult to entangle.

So he simply applied for this major.

I plan to learn more about the habits of these little creatures and how to manage them more scientifically.

This can be considered as resolving a small personal obsession.

Returning to the present, according to the original plot, he already knew that Luzhou City would face this crisis.

Whether it's a city or not doesn't really matter, since it's not part of Qinghe Miao's family's property.

However, in order to find Li Xingyun, Liang Jun would easily decide to massacre the city, following the customs of this era.

There's nothing we can do about it.

Now that we know the plot in advance, we have no choice but to try to save the day.

Otherwise, that damned conscience will always be causing trouble.

The problem was that the Liang army besieging the city outnumbered the Jin army inside.

If they arrive too early, even though his Taihang Army has been continuously gathering prisoners and expanding to nearly a thousand men during this period, they will be unable to escape.

Even when placed before tens of thousands of Liang soldiers, it would still be a drop in the ocean.

There is absolutely no chance of winning whether we launch a direct attack or a strong defense.

However, if a warning were given to the garrison commander of Luzhou in advance.

The other party may not believe him, and may not have the courage or ability to respond effectively.

Left with no other choice, he could only follow the original storyline.

At the most chaotic and crucial moment when the city fell, he led the Taihang Army here!

If they can regroup with the remaining defenders in the city, they can hold out for one night.

If they could hold out until Li Cunxu's reinforcements arrived the next day, the people in Luzhou City would still be saved.

He himself used his skills to be the first to rush into the city, trying to hold off the enemy's general and stabilize the situation.

The Taihang Army he brought could occasionally charge into the city through the weak points they had scouted in advance.

"So it was you."

Upon hearing Qing Hemiao introduce himself, Wang Yanzhang's eyes narrowed, and his tone was somewhat surprised:

"You have repeatedly cut off my army's supply lines and disrupted my rear lines. I have tried to catch you, but you have always managed to slip away. I have failed to stop you and capture you. I never expected you to be so young. You are truly a force to be reckoned with."
