Chapter 221: War Triggered



In the quiet night.

The sound of orderly footsteps is steady and powerful.

Infantry, light cavalry, heavy cavalry...

All these arms come together to form a powerful army lineup.

Faintly, there is a strong aura of solemnity and murder!

In the center of the army, five generals rode on black horses, looking quite majestic.

The leader was a strong middle-aged man with a resolute face and bright eyes.

He was wearing dark golden armor, which made him different from the other four generals.

This person is the commander of the Black Feather Legion, Lu Cang.

Since he started the campaign, he has given his all in every battle without taking anything lightly.

It was precisely because of this mentality that he never lost a battle on the battlefield.

Among the neighboring countries, the only general who could compete with him was Qin Xiong, a border guard of the Great Yan Dynasty.

Three fights and three draws.

This time, he was ordered by Emperor Wang Pan to march into the territory of chaos.

Lu Cang also had no intention of underestimating the enemy, and all his strategies were carefully planned to achieve perfection.

For example, the mage camp accompanying the army is used to guard against assassins and kill ant colonies.

After obtaining intelligence information about the last time Lin Hao and his men attacked the Thunder Tiger Army, Lu Cang was undoubtedly fully prepared.

Under the coverage of the mental power of three thousand mages, any disturbance in the army will not escape their perception.

As for the ant colony, although its number is huge, most of the spells cast by the wizard are offensive with a wide range of lethality.

Thousands of mages working together can kill a large number of fire ants in an instant.

"Commander, the leader of chaos has arrived. Should we pass the order and have the entire army set up camp and rest?"

A dark-skinned deputy general beside him said respectfully, "We will attack the city tomorrow after we have recovered our strength."

“No need to camp.”

Lu Cang had a calm face and waved his hand in a deep voice, saying, "Immediately mobilize the Third Battalion's assault troops to attack the city to confuse the army of the Lord of Chaos and test the enemy's situation."

"Others, rest here and get enough energy."

Hearing this, the dark-skinned deputy general was startled for a moment, then a look of realization came over him.

Having followed Lu Cang in marching and fighting for many years, he had a general understanding of the former's military tactics.

No wonder that during the previous forced march, all the soldiers of the Third Battalion’s assault troops enjoyed the treatment of riding horses.

It turned out that Commander Lu had already arranged all of this, intending to let the Third Battalion's assault troops conserve their strength so that they could directly enter combat status when they arrived at the Territory of Chaos!

"Yes, Commander!"

At that moment, the dark-skinned deputy general nodded excitedly and began to execute the order with swift movements.

"Third Battalion Assault Troops, forward!"

He pointed the long sword in his hand at the chaotic city in the distance and shouted.

Immediately afterwards, a loud charge horn was sounded in the Black Rain Legion.

"kill--!"

Suddenly, a deafening roar exploded in the night.

Five thousand soldiers, fully armed, began the charge!

The third battalion was originally the army's first-line fighters, each of them fearless and fearless.

Such momentum immediately ignited the morale of the army.

Regardless of whether this charge succeeds or fails, it can mobilize the morale of the troops in the rear who are sitting still.

With success, everyone is naturally happy and morale is high.

If they are defeated, then the troops watching here will be furious when they witness their comrades being killed by the enemy.

Under the influence of hatred value, the morale of the army will only rise and not fall!

On the war horse, Lu Cang stood straight.

Gazing at the assault troops of the third battalion rushing towards the city of chaos, his calm face revealed a hint of planning and strategizing.

At this time, on the wall of the City of Chaos.

The soldiers of the city defense army had solemn expressions on their faces and were already ready for battle!

"My Lord, they have begun to attack the city!"

Bai Lin looked into the distance and said solemnly, "Judging from their numbers, they should only have the strength of a battalion."

At the front of the city wall, Lin Hao stood with his hands behind his back and said calmly, "It seems that your guess is correct. As soon as the enemy arrived, they immediately attacked the city."

"Since this is just a test, then you will be in control from now on."

Lin Hao seemed to be intentionally cultivating Bai Lin and simply became a hands-off boss.

"Thank you for your cultivation, Lord."

Bai Lin naturally knew Lin Hao's thoughts, and immediately bowed with a look of joy.

Nearby, Luohan and Yang Wu felt somewhat jealous when they saw Bai Lin was so highly appreciated by the lord.

After all, in the beginning, the three of them all schemed against the leaders of their respective gangs in order to gain power.

In terms of seniority, everyone can be said to be on an equal footing.

However, in recent months, Bai Lin has already risen to prominence and become their immediate superior.

Although they are jealous, what can they do about it? In any aspect of adaptability, they are not as good as Bai Lin.

The two had no choice but to let it go.

Especially now that we are facing a powerful enemy, we need to work together to fight against it!

"Yang Wu, Luohan, listen to my orders."

Bai Lin holds great power, and his entire aura changes drastically in an instant.

But he suddenly changed his usual elegant image and shouted loudly.

"exist!"

Luohan and Yang Wu's faces turned grim and they responded immediately.

"Luohan, you lead the archer troops and do your best to stop the enemy from approaching."

"Yang Wu, you must lead your team and prepare weapons to defend the city immediately. When the enemy approaches the city, kill them all!"

A series of wartime orders were quickly issued from Bai Lin's mouth.

At this moment, he looked like a commander, exuding a majestic aura!

"yes!"

In an instant, Luohan and the others did not delay and took quick action.

A moment later, five thousand enemy soldiers, raising long clouds of dust, ran up to them.

It is only a hundred feet away from the city.

This distance is undoubtedly the most suitable range for archery!

"Archer, shoot!"

Luohan raised his sword and shouted orders.

On the city wall, thousands of archers immediately drew their bows.

However, at the moment the arrow was shot, the enemy below seemed to have predicted it.

However, the originally tight formation suddenly dispersed at an extremely fast speed, and everyone raised their shields.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…!!!

A large number of arrows were shot out suddenly, but as the enemy formation dispersed, most of the shots missed the target.

The remaining arrows hit the shield, and there was a clanging sound.

There is no doubt that the effectiveness of this blocking effort was almost zero.

As a result, the enemy took the opportunity to speed up their charge, directly shortening the distance by half.

"Manager Bai, how about we use the Lingyang Cannon? Blast those bastards to death!"

Seeing that the enemy was so cunning and resourceful, Luohan looked fierce and asked for instructions.

"No, the enemy is just testing our combat capability this time. We cannot let them know our trump card."

Bai Lin's face darkened slightly and he refused directly.

He immediately made a prompt decision and shouted coldly: "Archers, withdraw, prepare catapults and kerosene!"

Under Bai Lin's command, the surrounding soldiers began to get busy again.

On the city wall not far away, Lin Hao stood quietly and watched.

Everyone saw Bai Lin's command ability.

He believed that after this battle, if he won, the ranking of commanders in the Sky Continent might have to be reshuffled.
