martial arts general

Chapter 172
After taking a short rest, Zhao Jiuxiao launched an attack on Linhaicheng.

Thirty thousand cannons fired together, causing a large number of shells to fall in the city.

The crossbowmen let the sharp arrows strike one after another and flew towards the target.

The 40-strong Changfeng Nation army in Linhai City had long been reduced in combat effectiveness due to lack of physical strength. Now it was attacked in turn by artillery fire and sharp arrows, and it suffered heavy losses.

Musketeers and wizards kept getting killed.

The tiger and leopard cavalry also launched a fierce attack on the city gate, trying to rush into the city.

Xuanjia soldiers formed a phalanx to block the bullets from the musketeers flying from a distance.

For a while, the two sides came and went, fighting together.

But Zhao Jiuxiao has already strolled in the courtyard, and the chance of victory is in his hands.

In this battle, he has no possibility of failure.

The wizards were unwilling to admit defeat and summoned various beasts to launch an offensive.

Lions, tigers, and wolves were summoned one after another and pounced on the black armor soldiers.

Some people could not resist and were bitten to death by wild beasts.

But more people were protected by the shield and did not die.

Coupled with the rain of arrows shot from behind by the crossbowmen, these beasts also fell in a pool of blood
The wizard's call didn't work, and the scimitar cavalry were forced to stand in front of the city gate and make a last stand.

The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry had already knocked open the city gate and rushed in.

"Kill!" The two sides started fighting, and the shouts shook the heaven and the earth.

Although the scimitar cavalry's scimitars are sharp, they are useless when morale and numbers are at a disadvantage.

They were soon engulfed by the tide of tiger and leopard cavalry, and they all died in battle.

Zhao Jiuxiao looked at everything in front of him, feeling excited and relaxed.

He is very satisfied with his tactics.

However, at this moment, a general appeared in the Changfeng Kingdom's army in the distance.

This man was holding a long-barreled musket and aimed it at Zhao Jiuxiao.

"Bang bang bang!" Six bullets hit Zhao Jiuxiao's chest and lower abdomen one after another.

Zhao Jiuxiao did not panic, but activated the [Three Points of Returning Vitality] to protect his body.

"Dangdang!" The bullet bounced off without causing any danger.

Zhao Jiuxiao also saw the other person's appearance.

It was a general with short black hair, fair skin, and an angry expression, with a machete hanging from his waist.

Zhao Jiuxiao immediately guessed that this person was Elrond.

Elond's eyes were full of loneliness and helplessness, but he still rushed towards Zhao Jiuxiao.

His scimitar slashed rapidly, seemingly with all his strength.

But in front of Zhao Jiuxiao, this offensive was useless, and he was instantly knocked away by the body-protecting Qi.

Even Elrond was thrown off his horse, and fell dizzily.

Zhao Jiuxiao took advantage of the situation and used the [Holy Spirit Sword Art], causing tens of thousands of green sword qi to strike.

Elrond had no chance to evade, and was instantly pierced through the chest.

Countless transparent holes appeared on his body, and he died in a pool of blood soon.

Before he died, the pain in his eyes remained.

But Zhao Jiuxiao's heart was full of joy.

He looked up and saw that the battle was over.

The remaining enemies had long since fled.

Lin Haicheng also fell into the hands of Zhao Jiuxiao.

Looking at everything in front of him, he shouted: "Everyone, our army has won a complete victory!"

The soldier then shouted: "General Zhao is brave!"

Amid earth-shattering shouts, the soldiers began to clear the battlefield.

At this stop, only 1 people were killed or injured in Tiansheng Kingdom, but the enemy army was instantly defeated.

And Lin Haicheng's terrain is more suitable for defense, giving Zhao Jiuxiao a natural stronghold.

Coupled with the fact that the city has sufficient resources and a lot of food, the battle of the army is even more powerful.

Zhao Jiuxiao immediately began to gather 50 troops from Tiansheng Kingdom to guard the city.

And he himself also replenished the troops lost before.

After a month of mobilizing troops and transporting food and grass, the 200 million army is ready to fight again.

He first sent Gongsun Wuji to sneak into the enemy's city to find out the news.

More than ten days later, Gongsun Wuji returned.

After seeing Zhao Jiuxiao, he cupped his hands and said, "General Zhao, I have already found out."

Zhao Jiuxiao asked curiously, "What did you find?"

Gongsun Wuji: "To be honest, the Changfeng Kingdom wants to take back Linhai City, and has gathered three groups of people to prepare for a massive counterattack."

Zhao Jiuxiao: "Three groups of people? Who are they?"

Gongsun Wuji: "First of all, there is General Samiol. This man uses a heavy war hammer with very strong internal strength. The war hammer is also made of witchcraft. It should not be underestimated. He has 60 horses, 40 heavy armored cavalry and 20 bows and arrows under his command. cavalry."

Zhao Jiuxiao nodded: "What about the next one?"

Gongsun Wuji: "The general of the second army is called Ocato. He leads 50 troops, mainly 30 powerful wizards, plus 20 musketeers. Okato himself is also a powerful wizard."

Zhao Jiuxiao frowned; "This battle is not easy!"

Gongsun Wuji added: "The last one is Remis. This man is a famous general of Changfeng Kingdom. He uses a witchcraft spear and is very powerful. He has 60 troops under his command, including 40 archer cavalry and 20 firemen. Gunner."

Zhao Jiuxiao opened his eyes wide: "These people add up to at least 170 million people."

Gongsun Wuji cupped his hands and said: "Exactly, General Zhao, if our army wants to win this battle, we have to defeat them one by one."

Zhao Jiuxiao opened his eyes wide: "That makes sense. In your opinion, who should be attacked first?"

Gongsun Wuji pointed at the map: "Okato and his army of wizards should be attacked first."

Zhao Jiuxiao was a little confused: "Why?"

Gongsun Wuji: "General Zhao, look, Okato's army is passing through a wide terrain without canyons. The marching speed is very fast, and they will arrive outside our Linhai city first."

"This is because he wants to occupy more military glory and improve his position in Changfeng Kingdom in the future."

Zhao Jiuxiao: "I see."

Gongsun Wuji: "Our army can take advantage of this opportunity to take the initiative to attack Okato, fight decisively with it, and destroy the wizard army."

Zhao Jiuxiao: "What about the other two teams?"

Gongsun Wuji: "Remis and Samiol are marching at the same speed and will arrive outside the city at the same time, but our army cannot let them succeed. I suggest General Zhao send tiger and leopard cavalry to harass the enemy's food route and slow down The speed of it.”

Zhao Jiuxiao nodded: "Good idea, let General Luo do this."

Gongsun Wuji: "General Zhao, no matter what, if our army wants to win, we must destroy Okato's main force as quickly as possible, and then turn around to deal with the remaining two generals."

"If it takes a long time, it will be very difficult for our army to fight when Okato waits for the other two troops."

Zhao Jiuxiao: "I understand. Please don't worry, Gongsun Shaoxia. I will attack with all my strength in this battle. In terms of strength, it shouldn't be a problem to eliminate Okato."

Gongsun Wuji smiled and said: "General Zhao is wise!"
