These words made the eyes of the young officers around him light up. Did their general have a backup plan?
"Qi Jiguang, don't try to provoke me. Come here and let's fight today!"
"Stop talking the talk, come and show us what you've got!"
Although the two were shouting fiercely, neither dared to take the first step. If they started fighting, it would no longer be a personal grudge between two people, but a war between two countries. Even if they were blinded by anger, they should think carefully before they acted and consider whether they could bear the consequences.
So even though they wanted to kill the other party, they didn't dare to attack rashly.
Qi Jiguang brought 100,000 troops directly here. Besides being blinded by anger and wanting to destroy Zhoupu, he also wanted to put pressure on Zhoupu and hope to gain the upper hand in negotiations so that Zhoupu could get some compensation for the losses he suffered.
Unexpectedly, the verbal battle between the two never stopped, and Zhou Pu looked at him with hatred on his face!
Seeing the hatred in Zhou Pu's eyes, Qi Jiguang felt a flicker of doubt. Before he could delve deeper into the matter, a loud bang was heard.
"Bang!"
"ah!"
An explosion was heard from the far left of the Qi army!
Then came the screams of many soldiers, along with corpses and severed limbs.
Within the blast radius, all the soldiers were either wounded, killed, or maimed; flesh was flying everywhere, a truly horrific scene.
The soldiers nearby were thrown back by the impact, while those further away stared in astonishment at the scene, a fear they had never felt before slowly rising in their hearts.
This was a scene they had never seen in all the years they had fought. The ground was covered with their comrades, and in the blink of an eye, they were all gone, without even a trace of their bodies.
Zhou Pu's heart tightened as he watched this scene, but he didn't think too much about it. He assumed that Qi Jiguang had made the first move and that he had such a powerful weapon. He regretted not bringing all 300,000 with him, but now the die was cast and he had no choice but to act.
Zhou Pu felt a chill run through him as he thought of the corpses he had just seen. He looked at the Zhao army opposite him and shouted loudly to the soldiers behind him:
"Kill! Zhao has invaded our borders! The soldiers of Qi cannot show weakness! Avenge our fallen comrades!!!"
"kill!"
The 100,000 soldiers of Qi were also stirred up by this, and their comrades who had just been standing next to them were instantly killed without a trace, not a single one of them was spared!
How can they not be furious when their companions who were having dinner together yesterday are gone without even a corpse left behind?
The Qi soldiers raised their weapons and charged towards the Zhao army.
Qi Jiguang's heart skipped a beat when the explosion rang out, and he immediately had a bad feeling. Then he saw the Qi soldiers on the other side charging towards them.
This situation left him no time to think; he could only face it head-on. So he waved his hand and shouted:
"Charge!! Today we'll show the Qi Kingdom the might of Zhao's warriors!!!"
"kill!!"
Upon hearing this, the soldiers of Zhao charged forward.
In an instant, the entire arena was filled with close combat, with each side fighting to the death.
Before long, the field was covered in blood, dismembered limbs, and fallen corpses, some from Qi and some from Zhao.
Zhou Pu remained motionless on his horse, his eyes fixed on Qi Jiguang opposite him. He was determined to kill this scoundrel today!
He then spurred his horse and galloped towards Qi Jiguang.
"General, what exactly was that black lump you just threw? How could it be so powerful?"
Biaozi and the young soldiers behind him were stunned by what they had just witnessed. Just when they thought there would be no fight today, the general took out a black ball, lit it with a tinderbox, and then used his internal force to throw it into the Qi army.
Immediately following was a loud bang, startling them. When they looked closely, a circle had formed on the far left side of the Qi army's flank. The circle was now empty, and everyone inside had perished—dead or wounded.
Because they were too far apart, even though Zhao Yingfeng used his internal force, he only managed to throw it to the edge of the Qi army. However, this did not reduce the power of the object, and it directly killed dozens of Qi soldiers in that circle!
Biaozi and the others were now completely in awe of Zhao Yingfeng! Look, the general used a simple trick to make the two countries fight each other, and even excluded their Xia Kingdom from the conflict!
"This is a new gadget that the Princess gave to me. I don't know what it does. She only told me how to use it. This was the first time I used it!"
Zhao Yingfeng spoke calmly, as if it were a trivial matter, but only he knew how shocked he was inside.
With such a powerful item that Xin Xin gave him, what do they have to fear from the State of Qi in the future? What do they have to fear from the State of Zhao?
However, this was just a fleeting thought in Zhao Yingfeng's mind. This thing was too powerful, and if it were used on a large scale, there would definitely be many deaths and injuries.
As a general, he had to protect his men, and even if they went to the battlefield, he hoped they would return safely.
Soldiers from other countries are the same; soldiers are human too, and unless absolutely necessary, they still don't want to face a day of close combat.
As for them…
Zhao Yingfeng watched the two armies fighting fiercely on the other side. If they hadn't already mobilized their troops and forced their way to their doorstep, their Xia Kingdom wouldn't have come up with such a despicable tactic.
Although it's a loss, it allows them to fight without losing a single soldier, which is a good move.
Zhou Pu, who was on the opposite side, had already ridden his horse to within two meters of Qi Jiguang. Without any hesitation, he swung his spear and thrust it at Qi Jiguang.
Qi Jiguang was prepared for this, so he leaned back to dodge the spear, and then quickly raised his sword and swung it back.
He deflected Zhou Pu's attack and then slashed at Zhou Pu's waist with his other hand.
The two fought fiercely back and forth, but as their movements became more intense, their injuries began to ache.
Zhou Pu, in particular, felt like he was about to burst again, and that thing was about to leak out!
Zhou Pu's face grew increasingly dark, and his attacks became increasingly ruthless!
Just when Qi Jiguang was about to be overwhelmed, he suddenly smelled a foul odor, like someone had defecated!
He wrinkled his nose and suddenly thrust his weapon at Zhou Pu's vital point. Zhou Pu hurriedly dodged, which gave Qi Jiguang a chance to catch his breath.
Qi Jiguang quickly retreated several steps to a safe distance, looking at Zhou Pu with a probing gaze, and said:
"General Zhou, can you smell a foul odor?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Pu became enraged and said:
"Qi Jiguang, stop spouting nonsense. There's a stench over there. Are you giving up because you're not fighting anymore?"
"Admitting defeat is impossible, but this place smells so bad that I'm hesitant to do it, afraid of getting my hands dirty."
Qi Jiguang raised an eyebrow and said provocatively, now he was certain that the stench had come from Zhou Pu.
