Book 4: Chapter 10: Gao Xianzhi Winning the Soldiers’ Hearts
Yuan Imperial Dynasty’s capital:
Mo Yike left in a hurry to meet the Yuan Imperial Emperor. However, midway, the blessings in the sky churned. Then, a small portion flowed towards the northeast.
“Eh? That is not the Qian Heavenly Dynasty’s direction?” the official following behind Mo Yike said in shock.
“He already captured them? That was fast. We lost twelve cities just like that?” Mo Yike said with a bitter smile.
“Mister Mo, can it really be Gu Hai? That’s impossible, right? He is only a Golden Core Realm cultivator, isn’t he? Furthermore, the Han Royal Dynasty has pitifully meager acc.u.mulations,” the official at the side said in shock.
“He might be in the Golden Core Realm while you are in the Nascent Soul Realm, but do you believe that he can deal with a hundred of you?” Mo Yike said indifferently.
“Huh?” That official showed a bitter expression.
——
The location of Gao Xianzhi’s battalion:
“Release the arrows!” Gao Xianzhi shouted.
Rumble…!
A torrential rain of arrows shot towards a valley encased in a ritual array in the distance. The valley blazed with intense flames, and miserable cries rang out incessantly.
“Ah! Save me!”
“Screech! Screech! Screech! Screech! Screech! Screech!”
A large number of Yuan Nation soldiers and bats were trapped in the valley amid the intense flames. Arrows continued to rain down.
Outside the valley, Baili Zhan and a company of soldiers fought a group of Yuan Nation soldiers. However, most of the Yuan Nation soldiers were trapped in the valley; only a small portion engaged Baili Zhan’s company.
Bats filled the sky, but Baili Zhan’s soldiers were extremely ferocious.
“Kill their commander! Kill their commander!” the Yuan Nation commander roared in the distance.
However, Gao Xianzhi had powerful experts protecting him, continuously killing the Yuan Nation soldiers.
“Let me go! Spare me!” countless Yuan Nation soldiers roared in despair from within the intense flames.
“The Northern Expedition Army’s sixth battalion commander? Ha! You tried to trap me, but I reversed the trap. Now, take your remaining soldiers away. Otherwise, I will continue fueling the fire. You have already lost. Are you going to watch as your subordinates die in front of you?” Gao Xianzhi said coldly.
Far in the distance, the expression of the Yuan Nation’s sixth battalion commander fighting with Baili Zhan changed. “Let’s go!”
Whoos.h.!.+
A flying s.h.i.+p immediately appeared. Then, the remaining Yuan Nation soldiers, which Gao Xianzhi’s battalion chased after, sped into the distance.
Whoos.h.!.+
The battle came to a sudden end.
“Hahahaha! General is formidable!”
“General, we took another big victory!”
The soldiers cheered. Then, Gao Xianzhi waved his hand, making the fire from the ritual array in the valley below vanish. The arrow rain had also stopped by now.
Baili Zhan took a quick look before reporting excitedly, “General Gao, less than one hundred of our men died in this battle. However, we captured five hundred thousand Yuan Nation soldiers and killed at least three hundred thousand Yuan Nation soldiers. Only one hundred thousand soldiers of that so-called Northern Expedition Army’s sixth battalion managed to flee. Hahaha! After the supreme commander hears about this, he will be sending another large reward!”
“Indeed. General, our battalion is lucky to have you. You brought us the various victories we enjoyed. The rewards that the supreme commander gives you are also more than what the other battalion commanders receive. Following General equals victory!”
