General Wei's teeth were chattering when he said the last sentence.
He panicked.
He panicked completely.
He didn't know if this situation was a setup by Zhou Zhenguang reneging on his promise and not intending for them to leave alive, or if something unexpected had happened along the way...
"Zhou Cheng!!!"
In the crowd.
I don't know who it was, but someone shouted "Zhou Cheng" in a heart-wrenching voice.
In a daze, Commander Zhang suddenly raised his head. He looked towards the front and seemed to see something horrifying. The muscles on his face twitched from extreme shock.
It really is Zhou Cheng!
It really is Zhou Cheng!
They encountered Zhou Cheng on their journey? How dare those mere hundred-odd people!
How dare Zhou Cheng, how dare he ambush the imperial army of 120,000?!
"Bang bang bang—"
"Commander-in-Chief!! Zhou Cheng is here! Zhou Cheng is leading his cronies to attack!"
"What should we do? What should we do! They're all armed with deadly weapons, we can't win... I don't want to die, I really don't want to die. I chose to side with the imperial court because I wanted to live a little longer."
“............”
From Coach Zhang's perspective, one can see the following scene.
Right in the middle of the road at the very front.
Zhou Cheng, accompanied by more than a hundred trusted confidants, stood there with high spirits and fearless expressions. They stood in a neat row, blocking the way without any gaps.
They held submachine guns and swept across the area with rapid fire.
besides!
There were also several hundred soldiers left behind in Pingyang City, who kept supplying bullets to the submachine guns, loading bullets, and serving as reserve soldiers.
When faced with Zhou Cheng's bright and sunny smile, Commander Zhang felt a chill run down his spine. He watched as rows of imperial soldiers fell to the ground, and the piercing sound of gunfire filled his ears.
That moment.
Two words flashed through Coach Zhang's mind: It's over.
"Commander, it's Zhou Cheng... Zhou Cheng and his men have intercepted us... In a short time, he unleashed several hidden weapons, sweeping across the area with a penetrating power that can reach a distance of one or two miles."
“Our soldiers are just human targets; they can’t get past that line of defense at all. If they charge in, they’ll die.”
"Commander! They're coming! They're coming! Our morale is shattered! What do we do? What do we do? Are we just going to wait here to die? This isn't what I expected!"
Is this a dream?
"This dream... was terrifying..."
General Wei stared wide-eyed in terror. He saw the fleeing soldiers, their hearts and lungs pierced, lying dead in pools of blood, their eyes wide open in disbelief. He witnessed what true instant kill meant!
He felt cold all over and mumbled in a daze.
Until this point.
Only then did he realize that this weapon, which had been rumored to be incredibly powerful and that Zhou Cheng, whom he had repeatedly underestimated or belittled, was actually so invincible.
He's ridiculous! He's fantasizing about intercepting Zhou Cheng halfway through the journey and capturing him alive with the remaining 120,000 troops. How could he think like that? Is he blinded by overconfidence?
"Da da da—"
A crisp sound of footsteps reached my ears.
General Wei looked up and saw Zhou Cheng standing in front of him, seemingly out of nowhere.
Zhou Cheng, wearing long boots, stepped onto the frosty ground. He held a menacing submachine gun in his hand, pointed the muzzle at General Wei, and laughed condescendingly: "General Wei."
