What a great Li Xiaoling! He deserves to be called the best hero in the Yizhou army. At this critical moment, he twisted his strong waist and the iron halberd that was about to pierce Chu Tian's chest slashed horizontally and hit the three iron spears heavily.
There was a loud clang, causing Chu Tian's eardrums to ache slightly.
Chu Tian hugged the head of the growling old yellow wolf and forced it to lie on the ground.
Dozens of broken iron pieces flew everywhere, brushing against Chu Tian and Old Yellow Wolf's bodies and falling to the ground with a whizzing sound, splashing yellow sand everywhere. The sand and gravel hit Chu Tian's face, causing it to sting painfully.
The iron halberd in Li Xiaoling's hand was broken into four pieces. The terrifying force caused his body to fly off the ground, over Chu Tian's head, and flew more than ten feet away in a mess. He hit his head on a black pine tree that was so thick that it took three people to hug it. Only then did he barely stabilize his body.
With a loud bang, Li Xiaoling hit the big black pine, causing it to shake violently, and pine needles and pine cones fell like raindrops.
The two tiger-head shoulder guards on his shoulders were flattened. He shook his left shoulder hard and hit it against the tree trunk. The shoulder bones made a crisp "cracking" sound. It was obvious that the impact was very heavy and his shoulder blade was dislocated. He used the secret method he used in the military battlefield to forcibly reconnect the bone joint.
"Nu Yan Chong! Who are you coming? You should know that Nu Yan Chong is in charge of military equipment. Anyone who secretly keeps Nu Yan Chong is committing the crime of treason, and his entire family should be killed!" Li Xiaoling's ten fingers trembled slightly. He tightly grasped the iron rod of the short half of the halberd and shouted angrily.
Li Xiaoling was born into a hunter family in the mountains of Qizhou. He climbed mountains and crossed streams in the mountains and forests since he was young, ate countless herbs that strengthened his muscles and bones, and hunted countless tigers and leopards. He took their muscles and bones and boiled them into a paste with a family recipe to hone his strength. At a young age, he had a body of steel and his arms had thousands of pounds of strength.
Later, Li Xiaoling joined the army of Qizhou and was appreciated by the old captain. He not only married his daughter to him, but also taught him the military skills passed down from his ancestors. Li Xiaoling was very compatible with this set of military killing methods. After practicing for one year, he gained what ordinary people would gain after seven or eight years of hard work.
As he took over the post of the provincial military commander, his official position became higher, and the court salary he received naturally rose, and he gradually came into contact with various magical elixirs that assisted in cultivation. Although he had only been in the position of commander for fifteen years, Li Xiaoling actually had five or six hundred years of powerful cultivation, and the power of his arms soared to tens of thousands of pounds.
The iron halberd in his hand was forged by a master craftsman in the army using cold iron that had been tempered by a cold spring in the center of the river for thousands of years. It was extremely tough and difficult to destroy by ordinary objects.
With his cultivation, his divine power, and an iron halberd that could be called a treasure, he was beaten so badly by three iron spears that were several feet long. Li Xiaoling knew without thinking that this must have been the work of the strictly controlled military killer 'Furious Flame Charge'!
There were only 100 Raging Flames in the army of Qizhou, all of which were carefully stored in the secret vault of the prefectural governor's mansion and could not be easily used unless it was a critical moment in a war. Li Xiaoling inspected the secret vault of the prefectural governor's mansion every day to ensure the safety of the Raging Flames.
Li Xiaoling was suddenly hit by the Fury Charge and was shocked and furious. His blood almost gushed out of his throat.
Li Xiaoling was shouting and cursing here, and the armored cavalry and armored infantry on the official road had already been wailing.
The sturdy man holding the Fury of Flame in the dense forest aimed very accurately, and the formation of the soldiers under Li Xiaoling was extremely tight. The iron spears spewed out by the Fury of Flame whizzed through. One of the Fury of Flame pierced through the back of a cavalryman and pierced through the chests of five cavalrymen before falling heavily to the ground with a large amount of blood.
Another angry troop rushed through the dense formation of infantrymen, and a stream of blood was seen stretching out to be more than ten feet long. It pierced the chests of twelve armored infantrymen in a row, carrying away countless pieces of flesh and blood, and heavily stabbed into an old black pine tree on the side of the road.
The heavy iron armor was as fragile as a piece of paper when facing the powerful Fury Charge, which used some otherworldly mysterious power, and was completely unable to protect the safety of these elite state soldiers.
The seventeen angry flames brought heavy casualties to the provincial troops. Twelve armored cavalrymen fell from their mounts, and three cavalrymen had their arms torn off by iron spears and were wailing while holding their wounds. Thirty-seven of the two hundred armored infantrymen were killed, and eighty-two were injured to varying degrees, temporarily losing their combat effectiveness.
The ground was covered in blood and flesh. The thugs and guards from various families in the city of Jizhou, who had just been killed by the state soldiers led by Li Xiaoling, were lying all over the ground. Now, more than a hundred state soldiers had fallen to the ground. Those who had died naturally died silently, while those who were injured were all wailing loudly. The howls were heard from far away in the night wind, attracting bursts of sharp howls from wild wolves.
"Organize the army! Prepare for battle!" Li Xiaoling roared at his subordinates who were in a mess.
Fifteen unharmed armored cavalrymen quickly formed three rows, holding long spears and glaring at the direction where the iron spears were coming from; eighty-one armored infantrymen in good combat condition took out the thick wooden and iron-clad shields on their backs and used them to block in front of them, also forming a neat team.
The night wind blew across the small, cruel battlefield. The strong smell of blood drifted far away with the wind. Dozens of rockets stuck on the ground burned more and more happily. The oilcloth ball emitted a dazzling light, illuminating the battlefield which was only thirty to fifty feet in radius.
Chu Tian hugged Old Yellow Wolf and lay on the ground. The smell of alcohol on his face when he left the city had long since disappeared. He looked at the troops of the state army preparing for battle with great interest, and whispered to himself: "Nu Yan Chong, what a big move. With such heavy casualties, I'm afraid the governor Sima will be heartbroken for a long time. It would be fine if Zhou Liuyun didn't come back, but his return to Qizhou is a sign that he is going to do something big."
"Oh my god, how could such a generous person be the short-lived son of Zhou Dangtou? If I had known that Zhou Dangtou had such a promising son, why would I have taken his fishmongering business from him? Aren't the firewood heads, butcher heads, laborers, watermen, and platoon leaders in this city of Qizhou the same to me?"
Shaking his head, Chu Tian leaned close to Old Yellow Wolf's ear and said with certainty and a hint of malice, "Such an amazing son must not be Zhou Dangtou's child."
The old yellow wolf's eyes were red as he stared viciously at Li Xiaoling, who was striding towards the front of his soldiers, and low roars continued to come out of his chest.
Li Xiaoling threw down the broken iron pole of his halberd and made a gesture to the soldiers in the army: "Come!"
Li Xiaoling's two lieutenants were lucky enough not to be injured in the recent raid. They quickly carried a new iron halberd to Li Xiaoling, and then stood beside Li Xiaoling, one on the left and one on the right, holding a long sword.
"You are from the Ling family, right? Don't hide." Li Xiaoling sneered, "In Qizhou City, the only ones who have the courage and strength to attack the state soldiers are you, the Ling family! Hey, you just wiped out Wang Qi's entire family, so now you don't even let go of the governor's direct state soldiers?"
Low footsteps were heard, and a large group of elite warriors wearing dragon scale armor and holding long swords walked out of the dense forest and stood at the junction of the official road and the dense forest.
