489 A great victory! Tens of thousands of people were shocked and jubilant!
Zhu wubian’s Army of tens of thousands of soldiers had been guarding the central Army’s high platform from the beginning to the end. They stood in a large square, neat and orderly.
When Shen Lang’s last shot was fired, they could only hear the sound but not see the shadow.
In the next second, dozens of cannonballs were fired.
The high platform of the middle Corps, which was dozens of meters high, was torn apart and then collapsed, burying countless soldiers inside.
Not only that, some of the bombs directly fell into the dense army formation and detonated.
In an instant, the Army disappeared like wheat being harvested.
The last shot was perfect. Although there were only 50 cannonballs, it had caused more than 100 cannonballs ‘damage.
The entire scene was filled with ghostly wails and wolf howls.
........................
“Uncle! Uncle!” Zhu wubian rushed out and shouted.
Dozens of Warriors moved away, revealing Zhu Rong inside. At the moment of the explosion, dozens of Warriors had used their bodies to protect Zhu Rong.
Zhu Rong adjusted his hat and emerged from the crowd.
Ning Yu also crawled out with difficulty. One of his arms hung by his side, as if it had been broken.
Ning Yi also came out in fear. Blood was flowing out of his head, but he didn’t scream because his head was still in a daze. His ears were ringing, so he couldn’t hear or feel anything for a while.
“Blargh, blargh blargh.” He laid on the ground and kept vomiting.
Shu tingyu was also fine. For one thing, he was highly skilled in martial arts, and for another, he had dozens of Warriors protecting him at the risk of their lives.
The entire Central Army’s high platform had been blown up, leaving only a pile of ruins.
Zhu Rong used both his hands and feet to climb to the highest point of the ruins and looked down at the entire battlefield.
Zhu wubian and the Zhu family’s Warriors rushed up to protect him, ” “Uncle, be careful of that thief Shen’s cannon fire.”
“I won’t,” Zhu Rong said indifferently.
Then, he quietly watched everything in front of him.
Shen Lang’s cannons were all new types of explosives, so the smoke was not thick. The most important thing was that the dust created by the explosion covered an area of more than ten miles.
Gradually, the dust also fell down, and Zhu Rong saw everything in front of him clearly.
To be honest, although he was standing high up, he couldn’t see anything. He only heard a series of earth-shaking explosions and balls of flames exploding on the ground.
The entire battle lasted less than three hours, especially the second half, which lasted less than an hour. However, Shen lang had fired more than 35000 cannonballs.
The battlefield was 5km wide and 2km long.
However, the real elite area was only a mere three square kilometers, which meant that an average of 12000 cannonballs were dropped every kilometer.
On average, the destructive power of one shell was only about 300 square meters, so 12000 shells would be 3.6 million square meters. In other words, on average, one square meter would be bombarded three times. Where were the blind spots? it was a true carpet bombing.
Therefore, in less than an hour, Zhu Rong could hardly feel anything. His entire body was trembling, as if his entire soul had been baptized by the cannon fire.
He had never seen such a shocking scene before. As for the casualties of the Army, they could see it clearly when Shen lang killed them with grapeshot. However, they could not see it when he used the howitzer. All they could see was a few square kilometers of fire, and occasionally, they could see corpses and broken limbs.
Now that the dust and smoke had cleared, they could finally see it clearly.
This was hell, definitely hell.
The ground of a few square kilometers was covered with corpses, blood, and broken limbs.
They had seen battlefields before, but they had never seen such a brutal one.
Zhu Rong only felt his vision go black. This was actually not outside of his plan. His father, Zhu hongzhu, had said that the hundreds of thousands of soldiers, including the hidden origins sect’s Tongtian temple’s Army, were all cannon fodder to exhaust Shen Lang’s weapons.
But when it really happened, it still made people tremble from the depths of their hearts.
Shu tingyu from the hidden origins sect also climbed up. Previously, the 10000 Iron Blood Army soldiers had lost unwillingly, so they had sent 20000 this time.
And now, these 20000 Iron Blood soldiers were all lying on the ground. Perhaps they weren’t all dead, because some of them could even be seen crawling forward.
“The world has changed.” Shu tingyu said.
Zhu Rong nodded and said,”right, this world has changed.” &Nbsp;
“Lord Zhu Rong, is this the result you wanted?” Shu tingyu asked coldly.
Zhu Rong was silent. He wanted to nod, but then he shook his head.
The world had changed too quickly. According to previous practices, this kind of war with hundreds of thousands of soldiers would basically last for a few months. The war between Chu and Yue lasted for half a year. The war between Yue country and Jin Jun had also lasted for a few months. The war between Wu State and Yue State had lasted for two years.
But now, it had ended in just half a day. The most ridiculous thing was that the hundreds of thousands of soldiers did not even manage to get close to Shen Lang’s Army. They could not even cross the last 50 meters. The ordinary soldiers could not cross the distance. The troops from the hidden origins sect and the heavenly temple could not cross the distance either.
Zhu Rong looked at Shen lang, who was two kilometers away, and said, ” “Let’s go,” he said.
“Will Shen lang let us go?” Zhu wubian asked.
Zhu Rong laughed coldly and said,”what did he capture us for?” Would it work? To him, the real battle had yet to begin. He has never taken us seriously since the beginning. His only enemy is the blood soul Army of the sky-Sea Pavilion.”
“Retreat!” Zhu Rong ordered.
Zhu wubian led an Army of tens of thousands of soldiers to protect Zhu Rong as they headed towards the capital in the North.
Shu tingyu was a little unwilling because he knew that many of the iron Blood Army Warriors were actually not dead. They were only injured and unconscious.
He had sent a few hundred Warriors to bring back the iron Blood Army soldiers who had fainted.
However,
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
Shen Lang’s Cannonball was like a roll call. The Cannonball landed directly and blasted dozens of people away.
This was a warning to Shu tingyu that if she wanted to leave, she should get out of here quickly, and she could forget about bringing back the surviving iron-blooded troops on the ground.
A moment later, Zhu Rong had led tens of thousands of people and retreated without a trace.
....................................
The seed Master looked at all of this in shock. This, this was the end?
She lowered her head and looked at her scimitar. What was happening? I didn’t even make a single slash before the battle was over.
The enemy had not even arrived in front of them. Since when did the wars in this world become like this?
He couldn’t help but look at his brother, who was also in a daze, holding the sword in his hand.
Sword unsheathed, sigu was at a loss.
Zhongshi could not help but walk over and say,”if we fight like this in the future, what use are we?”
The Zhong family’s Crown Prince did not speak. Instead, he silently sheathed his sword. His emotions were even more complicated. The Zhong family surrendered to Shen lang because they had no other choice. They were forced into a dead end by their enemies.
Therefore, even after surrendering, their hearts were gloomy and they didn’t dare to have any hope for the future. The Empire of Great Yan was too powerful. Back then, even Emperor Jiang Li was defeated. Now, Shen lang was less than one percent of Emperor Jiang Li’s strength, but the Empire of Great Yan was even more powerful than 20 years ago.
The Zhong family did not dare to have any thoughts about the battle between Shen lang and the great Yan Empire. They only wanted to perish together with Shen lang and help the Zhong family’s reputation. Since there was no power or survival in this world, it was better to have reputation than nothing.
However, the battle just now had completely overturned the Zhong family’s understanding, as if it had opened the door to a new world.
Perhaps, Emperor Shen Lang’s side was not hopeless. He was most skilled in creating miracles, and following Emperor Shen lang might allow him to accomplish the Zhong family’s unprecedented great cause.
The Zhong family’s Crown Prince looked at the Zhongshi, especially at his sister’s exquisite face. we don’t know where our battlefield is, but you have to understand where your battlefield is.
“You’re so annoying!” Zhong Shishi cursed. She knew what her brother meant and sneered, you men are useless. You only expect to sell your daughter.
Then, she rushed forward and kicked her brother’s kneecap.
“I’m Xuanji,” the Zhong family’s Crown Prince was in so much pain that he was almost twitching, but there was nothing he could do.
Zhongshi was the pearl in the palm of the entire family. Since she was young, she would hit and scold her brothers whenever she wanted, including him, the Prince.
Little sister, you can kick me like this, but you can’t kick that person. He’s weak and fragile. If you kick him, he’ll break his bones, and our Zhong family will be finished.
..............................
Shen lang ordered,”go and capture the captives, especially the iron Blood Army of the yin Yuan Association. Bring back all the survivors.” If you dare to resist, you’ll be immediately numbed.”
“Yes!” 2,000 female Amazonian fighters went out of the walls and began to search the entire battlefield for survivors.
brother, ” Hila said. do you want to take in these iron-blooded troops of the hidden faction? ”
Shen lang nodded. Although these people were trained by the yin Yuan Association to be extremely brutal and had used the methods of stupa mountain and sky-Sea Pavilion to transform their bloodlines, they were still people with no bloodline and had the same innate ability.
It could be seen from the battle just now that even the soldiers from Tongtian temple retreated when faced with Shen Lang’s cannon fire. However, the Warriors of the iron Blood Army were fearless. They were blown away time and time again, but they got up and charged forward. Even if their bones were broken and they spat out blood, they still crawled to Shen lang.
They were so brave, a super-class Army.
congratulations, Your Majesty, ” Zhong Yao said. the decisive battle in tianyue city is already half completed. As long as the other half is completed, the Yue country will be back.”
Half? In terms of the number of enemies killed, it was far more than half, even more than 95%.
However, in terms of completion, it was at most 30%.
The remaining 20000 sky-Sea Pavilion’s blood soul Army was the most crucial. This Army was so powerful that it was suffocating. They had once easily defeated Bian Xiao, Jin Jun, and even the Great Tribulation Temple and the Western Region’s million-strong Alliance Army. They had won with crushing force.
Shen lang had prepared a lot for the final battle in Tian Yue city. However, almost all of his preparations were for the blood soul Army.
Only by winning these 20000 could it be considered a true victory. Otherwise, all their previous efforts would be in vain.
However, this did not stop Shen lang from celebrating his victory.
..............................
In the camp, Shen lang held a small celebration party.
No one was singing praises, and they were just chatting with each other. This was especially so for general LAN-Feng, who was a super die-hard fan of the Jiang family. He couldn’t wait to pull Zhong Yao and Zhong ‘e into his camp.
General LAN-Feng could tell that Shen Lang’s thoughts were undisciplined and he had no intention of unifying the world and becoming the human Emperor of the East. Hila, duo la, Xue Yin, and the other direct descendants also let him be. Even Xu Qianqian and the other women called him Shen lang.
General LAN-Feng’s temples would throb every time he heard someone call out Shen Lang’s name.
What was he doing? What was he doing? Don’t you have any manners? What a disgrace!
He wanted to correct everyone’s thinking. You are facing the human Emperor of the East, not Shen lang, not some scumbag, not some pretty boy.
Zhang Chunhua had been successfully brainwashed by him, and she was determined to bring honor to her ancestors.
After returning to the eastern world, general LAN Feng desperately tried to form cliques and factions, pulling Jin Shiying and Jin Zhuo into his loyal camp. Following that, he was filled with endless desire for Emperor Ning Zheng, Zhang Ji, Bian Xiao, and especially Jin Jun. Only this group of people understood his heart and the greatness of rebuilding the world’s order.
As a century-old noble family, the Zhong family had become general LAN Feng’s first target. Of course, the two of them hit it off immediately. Zhong Yao had even begun to plan in his heart to separate the Zhong family. One branch would belong to him, Zhong Yao, and the other to Zhong ‘e.
The Zhong ‘E branch was still a Minister of the State of Yue and was loyal to the king of Yue. Zhong Yao’s generation was still a Minister of Yue, but his son could become a minister of great Qian. Thus, it was up to Zhong Shishi to see if she was capable.
Poor Zhong Yao, he had wanted to curry favor with the Yan capital from the start and marry Zhong Shishi to the son of the great Yan Empire’s Prince Wu. After this path was destroyed, another Golden Path appeared in front of him.
The more pitiful zongshi was originally a rich young lady. She used to wear tight-fitting battle clothes every day, but now, she was forced to wear the dress of an aristocrat’s daughter and pour wine for Shen lang.
She was clearly a tigress, but she was forced to become a dignified and virtuous daughter.
Shen lang sat at the head of the table and listened to the ministers and generals chatting, but he rarely spoke. A fragrance came from the side, and the Zhongshi knelt beside him. As soon as Shen lang finished his wine, she would fill it up immediately and help Shen lang cut the meat into pieces.
Zhongshi’s heart was spitting fire, but her actions were meticulous.
In this life, there were only others who could serve her. Even if she went to the palace, the zhongyue would personally cut fruits for her and even feed her. He had never served anyone in his life, but now he had to serve a pretty boy like Shen lang. He was about to explode from anger.
What made him even angrier was that Shen lang was very polite to him.
What’s the meaning of this? Aren’t you a scumbag? Aren’t you a hooligan? But now you’ve become a gentleman, and you’re not looking at me like a hooligan? What did that mean? Do you despise me?
your Royal Highness, bloodline is really a wonderful thing. Although you have the face of a Westerner, I can still see that you have the bloodline of His Majesty Jiang Li at a glance. I’ve done my research, ” Zhong Yao said. your pupils are the same as His Majesty’s. One in a billion.
Hila was stunned.’Is this elder Princess calling me?’ However, after hearing Zhongyao’s words, Hila nodded and said, ” “Lord Zhongyao, your eyesight is truly too amazing. After returning to the eastern world, you’re practically the first person to see the uniqueness of my brother’s and my pupils.”
Next, Hila came to Shen Lang’s side and widened her eyes so that everyone could see her and Shen Lang’s eyes clearly. They were very different from normal humans. They were deeper, and their structure and three-dimensional features were different. It was like the eyes of some animals, brighter and more mysterious than human eyes.
The seed Master carefully identified it and exclaimed, it’s true. I was curious why Shen Lang’s eyes were so different. His eyes don’t look like a human’s.
What do you mean you don’t look like a human? can you talk?
cough, cough, cough, cough, Zhenzhen. Zhong Yao coughed helplessly, expressing his pessimism about his daughter’s hopes of revitalizing the family.
Not only did zhongshishi have conflicts with Jin Mulan, but he also had conflicts with ning Meng. Furthermore, Emperor Shen lang had a Vixen-like Zhang Chunhua by his side. His daughter had almost nothing other than her beauty and shrewdness. How could she win against Zhang Chunhua?
my Lord, ” Princess Dora said. how will our battle with the sky-Sea Pavilion’s blood soul Army proceed? ” Will it still be in this hunting ground camp?”
Shen lang shook his head. I don’t think so. The battle between Zhu hongxue and I should be like a duel between Westerners.
“That would be for the best,” Princess Dora said.
Then, Princess Dora stopped talking.
“If you have something to say, say it,” Shen lang said.
Your Majesty, ” Princess Dora said. ever since the Amazon Army pledged their loyalty to you, they have received your protection in all aspects. The greatest casualties came from the attack of the Hellfire of the fire god sect. Furthermore, you risked your life to save us, and we are extremely grateful for that. But we are soldiers, and we need to fight. No matter how cruel the training is, it can’t compare to a real battle, so you don’t have to protect us too well. We will either die on the battlefield or transform on the battlefield.”
Shen lang raised his glass and toasted to Dora.
you’re right, ” Zhong Shishi said. today’s battle was shocking. It was a one-sided massacre. But my mind is thinking, from now on, will there be no place for us martial artists on the battlefield? will we be completely outdated? This feeling really makes me feel empty. What’s the use of an Army that can’t fight?”
This time, Zhong Yao placed his cup on the table and stared at his daughter.
Zhongshishi was stunned and asked herself, did I talk too much?
Princess Dora, ” Shen lang said. the next battle will be our real test.
It was the final battle against the blood soul Army in Tian Yue city.
..........................................
The emotions of the citizens of the entire capital were going to be turbulent.
A few days ago, when hundreds of thousands of soldiers went south to attack Shen lang, many people in the capital thought that they were doomed. Shen Lang’s Army only had 20000 soldiers. He could not defeat an Army of 400000 to 500000 soldiers.
Then, they estimated the time and waited for the news of the battle. The capital was too close to the main camp of the tianyue hunting ground, only a few dozen miles away. They should be able to hear the battle when it shook the sky.
Therefore, on this day, the people of the capital perked up their ears to listen to the news from the South.
In the end, he didn’t need to listen.
Boom! Boom! Boom! This deafening sound, which had not been heard for a few hours, easily traveled dozens of miles.
What was this? Thunder? But the sky was cloudless!
Did this voice come from the battlefield?
Soon after, the people of the capital saw a wonderful scene. Countless soldiers fled back. At first, there were only a few hundred people, then a few thousand more came, and finally, even 100000 people fled back.
What, what was going on? The battle had just started, why did he run away? Could Shen lang have won? That was impossible.
Of course, no one would say that the Army that ran away belonged to Shen lang. That was because he only had 20000 people in total, and there were more than 100000 deserters.
In the end, when Zhu Rong returned to the capital with tens of thousands of soldiers, everyone knew that Shen lang had won the battle.
This was because Zhu Rong’s Army had brought thousands of wounded soldiers. Countless of them were covered in blood and looked dejected. It was the typical form of a defeated Army.
At that moment, the people of the capital became excited and even found it hard to believe.
Shen lang only had 20000 people and he defeated 400000 people in less than a day. How did he do it?
This is unbelievable! You created a miracle when you were the son-in-law, and you still created a miracle when you were the favored Minister of the king of Yue. Now you are the Emperor, and you still create miracles? It was simply too awesome.
However, the people of the capital only dared to jump for joy in their hearts, not cheering out loud. Everyone knew that the war was not over yet. The sky-Sea Pavilion’s blood soul Army had not been deployed yet!
..........................................
Within the palace, the Yue King, ning Shao, was almost doubting his life. He really didn’t dare to believe his ears.
“You lost? You lost all of them in less than a day?”
“What are you guys doing? There are over 400000 of you, and you think you can’t beat 20000?”
Princess Ning Luo replied,”wrong, it’s half a day.” Furthermore, it’s not that we can’t defeat 20000 people. It’s just that we didn’t even touch the side of Shen Lang’s Army. We lost without even slashing or shooting an arrow.”
Ning Shao stumbled back to his throne. This was really too subverting his understanding.
What was wrong with this world? 400,000 people couldn’t beat 10000 or 20000 people, and they didn’t even get to the side.
There shouldn’t have been such a heaven-defying person in this world. He should have died long ago.
In the room, ning Yi, Ning Luo, and ning Shao were all silent. This battle in Tian Yue city would determine the fate of the entire South. They didn’t care about this, but at least it would determine the fate of the three of them.
After a long while, the Yue King ning Shao asked, ” “Uncle-Master Kong ye, what should we do next?”
“We’ll have to rely on Zhu hongxue’s blood soul Army now,” said master kongshu of the Tongtian temple.
“What will be the outcome if Zhu hongxue and Shen lang fight?” ning Shao asked.
Master Kong ye said,’if Shen lang only has these secret weapons that he displayed today, he will lose without a doubt. They didn’t even have the power to fight back against the blood soul Army.”
“Is the blood soul Army that strong?” ning Shao asked.
Master Kong ye said, ” it’s even stronger than what I said. It’s an impenetrable armor. Even Shen Lang’s cannons can’t do anything to it. They possessed heaven-defying ancient weapons. If the blood soul Army opened fire, the heavy wave Army would be completely annihilated in less than 15 minutes. However, if Yingluo has other secret weapons, then it’s a different story.”
everything that’s going to happen next has nothing to do with us for the time being. The stage no longer belongs to us. It belongs to Shen lang and Zhu hongxue.
these two people are the real final battle in tianyue city. They will decide the fate of countless people!
