Chen Ping's Sword

Chapter 371: Chapter 79: Breakthrough on the Eve of Battle, A Decisive Duel (Part 4)

Han Xiaoru had never experienced such a bloody and brutal battlefield slaughter.

Her eyes were slightly red, faintly realizing that her fallen soldiers were nearly twice as many as the opponent’s.

This was not only due to the gap in soldier quality but mainly because of her own incompetence as the main general.

The opposing general and his cavalry were of one mind, advancing and retreating with great discipline, able to avoid many lethal threats.

While leading her cavalry, they only knew to attack recklessly, once they charged out, they couldn’t be pulled back, then were directly surrounded and killed by three or four cavalrymen.

A surge of immense guilt and disappointment welled up in her heart. For the first time, Han Xiaoru deeply hated her usual lack of effort in studying military books, not carefully researching arrays. Now looking at the opponent’s battle array, it was as if a spirit snake was coiling and impacting, and she had a moment of enlightenment mixed with some anger.

Anger burned within her heart like flames.

Han Xiaoru’s mind became increasingly clear.

During the second confrontation after turning her horse with Yu Hanshan, a flash of insight suddenly dawned on her, realizing the second level realm of Qi Gathering and Communication in fortune array.

The long knife was like snow, her mind was like the sea, the military array clashes from all directions formed concrete images in her mind, the military arrays twisted together, separating upon touch.

This time, it was a draw.

Each side had over a hundred fallen riders.

"Good."

Chen Ping shouted loudly, his painted halberd spinning like a wheel, carving a bloody path, two hundred cavalry behind him turned into a torrent, following him and cutting through a bloody path, before them they saw the triple fire sea.

That was the Vermilion Bird Heaven-Burning Battle Array, the cavalry battle array inhaled and exhaled like flames, red flames outside, white flames at the center, and green flames inside.

Each layer of slaughter was stronger than the last.

At the back was the Vermilion Bird General Xiao Tong.

By this point, Chen Ping did not know how many his men had killed.

The opponent had at least a thousand fallen riders, while out of his two hundred men, twelve had fallen dead, yet they barely saw the silhouette of the opposing main general.

In war, there is no way to avoid deaths.

Chen Ping also understood that although his two hundred cavalry were all experts, it was impossible not to have casualties.

After all, trapped within a major array, whether winning or losing, there will be losses, it just depends on how many die.

However, fortunately, the remaining troops showed more mastery, compared to during the march in the military array, when their minds were in turmoil, hands in disorder, the situation now was much better.

There hadn’t been anyone fallen dead for a while.

"A commendable military array, dare you face me head-on in battle."

Chen Ping’s long halberd swung out a light shadow, people came and went in front of him, and those who charged forward fell into a heap, severed limbs flying chaotically.

But the sound carried far away, landing in the ears of a civilized middle-aged man in a red robe.

"General Chen is indeed formidable, why not break my array first, if you can’t, you’ll be exhausted to death anyway."

The man in the red robe and armor laughed heartily.

He completely ignored Chen Ping’s provocation.

In his heart, you just keep killing, kill as many as you can.

Wait until your cavalry are spent, you’re also exhausted, then we’ll decide the outcome.

...

Begging for monthly tickets.

I’ve found some people always say there’s too little update, only one Chapter, completely ignoring the word count.

If you say, I’m not as good as those tentacle monsters who update ten thousand words every day, that’s fine.

But I update five thousand to six thousand words daily, you act as if you don’t see them. Split into two thousand words per Chapter, I can update three Chapters a day.

But I know, no matter what I say, some people just go, I don’t listen, I don’t listen, I don’t see, I don’t see, it’s just too little, it’s too short.

Alright then, begging for a full subscription.

At least with a full subscription, let Xiaoyu be happy, then write more.
