Chapter 504: Chapter 189: Eight Hundred Hongze Army, Heavy Snow Attacks the Enemy Camp_6

The Marauders and the Witch God Sect, indeed, relied on the mountain ranges deep in the mountains to lay out their grand strategy!

Even.

Master was not completely aware!

“Let’s go!”

Chen Sansi ordered, “Head to Huqiu Mountain, let us complete our mission here and then return to discuss the subsequent enemy situation.”

Their mission was to clarify the Marauders’ military strength in Liangzhou, and they could not abandon it halfway just because You State was in trouble.

…

Huqiu Mountain.

Marauders’ Yuwen Tribe camp.

Central Army Tent.

“General Teng Ge’er, come, come, cheers!”

Prime Minister Yu Wen Chengzhao, holding his wine cup, drank with two military officers under his command, “It won’t be long before Liangzhou becomes devoid of people and livestock, and then our Heavenly Clan will move into the Central Plains!”

As both the Prime Minister and a member of the Imperial Family, he held a position of high authority and power within the Yuwen Tribe.

“Hahaha!”

General Teng Ge’er drained his fiery liquor, “The Sheng people could never guess that by extending such a long battle line outside Liangzhou City, we are merely trying to confuse them. Our real target is You State, and we only need to hold it for a few months. Once the Ancestor Vein revives and the Blood Sacrifice Array is set, millions of Sheng people from Liangzhou will turn into our nourishment!”

“Sun Xiangzong, Lu Ji, and that Chen Sansi who fights in a white robe, even if they have enormous capabilities, they can’t utilize them, no, probably by that time they won’t even know how they died!”

Dari Achi said as he burst into loud laughter.

“Quite right! But still, we must be careful.”

Yu Wen Chengzhao, stroking his beard braided into twists, said, “I heard there’s a small troop of cavalry roaming nearby recently, and the leader might be someone important. We mustn’t overturn the boat in a drainage ditch.”

“Just a few hundred men!”

Teng Ge’er heavily placed down his wine bowl, speaking somberly, “Buzzing around like flies, I’ve wanted to crush them for a long time!”

…

Outside the camp.

“Zila—”

After questioning, Chu Shixiong killed the captured Marauder soldier with a single slash.

“General!”

“All is clear now.”

“Here in Huqiu Mountain, there are roughly twenty thousand troops, all elite.”

“The person in charge is the Yuwen Tribe’s Prime Minister Yu Wen Chengzhao, plus the two Deputy Generals under him, totaling three Perfect Profound Phenomenon.”

“Troublesome to provoke.”

“…”

After hearing his subordinate’s report, Chen Sansi confirmed, “You said Huqiu Mountain has twenty thousand troops, three Perfect Profound Phenomenon?”

“Yes, exactly three Perfect Profound Phenomenon, indeed very powerful in combat. If you also consider two nearby stationed locations, the troop numbers could reach around thirty thousand.”

Chu Shixiong nodded gravely, “Now that we have gathered clear information, let’s hurry back. Several patrols have been captured, and it won’t be long before they notice something is odd. If we get surrounded by their Heavy Cavalry, it would be problematic.”

In the meantime,

Flames were already visible in the distance, obviously signaling that they had been discovered.

The brothers were all ready, waiting for the Main General’s command to depart from this place.

However…

They then saw their own leader vault onto his horse, with a killing intent emanating and spreading from him, staring ahead at the Central Army’s Main General, his voice booming like a war drum:

“Without a Martial Saint, twenty thousand dares to camp before me?!

“Eight hundred Light Cavalry, heed my command!

“Follow me straight into the Marauders’ Central Army, kill the Main General, capture Yu Wen Chengzhao alive!”

“What?!”

Chu Shixiong was stunned, “Sir, they have twenty thousand people.”

“I alone can take the enemy general’s head from the midst of an army!”

Chen Sansi slowly lifted his long spear, “You just charge; send also a letter to the blue bird, command the entire Hongze Camp within the Great Wall to strike, and before dawn, come over to take over the Huqiu Mountain garrison!”

The barbarians’ intentions were still unclear.

But one thing he was sure of.

Sitting idle within the city was not an option.

First, seizing Huqiu Mountain, even if there was subsequent support going to You State, would ensure Liangzhou was free from harassment!

Chen Sansi had been scouting Huqiu Mountain for nearly two months.

He had thought that, with someone of the Prime Minister’s stature present, there would at least be a Martial Saint overseeing things, but to his surprise, there was none.

Three who had reached Great Perfection in the Profound Image Realm.

It sounded intimidating enough.

But Chen Sansi…

was no longer that Meridian Passage General who had to duck and hide in battle, wracking his brain to find the enemy’s flaws.

Below the Martial Saints,

there was now no one who could stop him!

As long as he wasn’t trapped, no amount of troops would suffice!

Exhausted?

He had just taken a Fasting Pill, how could he be exhausted?!

“Charge!”

Before his subordinates could even react, that figure in a white robe and on a White Horse had already disappeared into the dark snowflakes, heading straight towards the bright fires.

There,

was the Enemy Army’s Central Army Tent!

“My lord!”

Chu Shixiong was dumbfounded.

Twenty thousand men!

Rushing in, wasn’t that a death wish?!

Even for one who had achieved Great Success in the Profound Image Realm, killing over a thousand would be exhausting, and if the opponent had a military officer of the same realm, he could at most kill a few hundred!

Not to mention, the enemy had three who were at Great Perfection!

Plus twenty thousand men!

Even if all eight hundred charged in, it wouldn’t be enough for the enemy to floss their teeth!

Before coming to Liangzhou,

Chu Shixiong imagined the Marquis Wu Yi as more of a strategist. Little did he expect him to also have such a brave side; no, this was not merely bravery—it was outright recklessness!

Even a common Martial Saint, faced with three at the Profound Image level, wouldn’t dare charge in so recklessly!

“General, let’s follow him!”

“Well said!”

“The general said they are nothing! Even if they had a hundred thousand, they are still nothing!”

“Attack!”

Although they couldn’t understand,

Xia Cong and the others had never truly fathomed the general’s heart.

All they knew was to obey commands.

And that led to victory!

This was the effect of a formidable reputation!

Unmatched morale!

Even with just eight hundred men, they all lined up in formation with the belief that they would win, charging towards the enemy camp with overwhelming evil Qi and the thunderous sound of hooves.

Eight hundred Light Cavalry, attacking the enemy camp in a heavy snowstorm!

…

The Great Wall of Liangzhou.

Sixth Prince Cao Huan personally took charge, inquiring about the frontline situation every day, waiting to see how the enemy outside Huqiu Mountain was faring, so he could respond as quickly as possible.

“I told him to scout and test, not to annihilate the enemy!”
