Chapter 641: Breaking the Formation 2

Looking like non-humans, "their actual combat power is only at the level of the Northern rangers who have just joined my command." Bai Lang had time to comment on his own men while killing. These people also abandoned their horses to fight on foot and break the formation, rushing up to shoot at close range with large bows and heavy arrows, aiming directly at the face.

"I didn't teach them this; I didn't expect these guys to know the Jurchen foot combat method." Bai Lang was a little surprised, "The imperial army in front seems quite elite; they haven't collapsed even after I killed hundreds of them?" Bai Lang trampled through thousands of troops, and as the White Tiger Star Lord, he was very sensitive to perceiving the military aura.

"Is this actually because they were stunned by me? Hahahaha, I didn't expect that the speed of destroying the army and killing the generals would have such an effect." Bai Lang spread his arms and killed, clearing an entire row of soldiers in front and to the sides. His movements paused for a moment, and his subordinates also killed their way in.

At this moment, the imperial army in front finally began to collapse with a crash. Both soldiers and generals were fleeing for their lives. While running, they were still trying to discard their armor and weapons, crying for their fathers and mothers, complaining that they were born with too few legs. In short, the further away from this killing god, the better.

Just like an avalanche, the imperial main formation in front collapsed directly. The Capital Battalion hadn't even engaged yet; seeing Bai Lang fighting on foot and bringing three hundred cavalry who had also switched to foot combat charging over, they let out a shout and ran away directly. Those with a conscience dragged their generals along, while those without simply abandoned their main generals and ran themselves.

Seeing this, Bai Lang directly turned back onto his horse to meet the flanking Liaodong cavalry. He watched as people in the opposite side kept turning their horses' heads to flee during the charge. By the time the two sides were about to make contact, the opposite cavalry had already scattered in all directions without any formation.

Bai Lang just laughed. He had long known the incompetence of the imperial army, which was why he said they were light in the front and heavy in the back, wide on the left and narrow on the right. Sure enough, they were broken in one blow. The Shandong army, which had originally attacked Bai Lang's main camp, saw the imperial army's main formation collapse, and while their camp was shooting arrows, the camp gates were wide open, and the cavalry behind had already lined up, ready to charge out—so the Shandong army also collapsed as a matter of course.

On the observation platform of the center army, the Prince of Yan, the princes, the dukes, and Wang Ziteng all saw the scene of Bai Lang breaking the formation. Everyone gasped, "Earl of Tianshui..." These guys could only say such things. Bai Lang's bravery was probably only comparable to such fierce generals as King Xiang, Guan and Zhang, Yang Xuangan, and the Thirteen Tai Bao in history.

"Truly not human! This is a White Tiger turned into a demon!" The Prince of Yan was also flustered and confused, directly descending from the observation platform and riding away. The various dukes and princes also fled one after another—the army was about to collapse, and if they didn't run, it would be too late. As for what the imperial court would do after the defeat? Who cared about that anymore.

Bai Lang led the cavalry to pursue and kill. The imperial camp in front was in complete chaos, without even anyone left to guard it. There was fire behind the camp; perhaps the fleeing soldiers had looted grain and treasures along the way? At this time, Bai Bao and the others also disobeyed Bai Lang's military order; they directly launched an all-out attack, killing the defeated imperial army.

The prefecture city didn't even bother to defend; instead, it was wantonly looted and set on fire by the defeated troops who rushed in. It wasn't until Bai Biao led his main force into the city to slash and kill the defeated troops and the local ruffians who were looting during the chaos that the situation was brought under control. Bai Lang led Bai Bao, Bai Ying, and Bai Xiao to pursue for dozens of miles, capturing over ten thousand people and killing over ten thousand. Of the fifty thousand imperial troops, at most a few thousand could escape back.

Among them, a duke was killed, and dozens of dukes and marquises, including the Prince of Yan, were captured. Wang Ziteng himself was also among them. Originally, they had run early, so the road was quite smooth. Unexpectedly, Bai Lang killed the soldiers and generals blocking the road from behind while pursuing them. With a tiger roar, people and horses gave way, and the Prince of Yan and others immediately fell off their horses—their horses' legs were weak and couldn't move.

Having captured these people, Bai Lang directly threw them into carriages and continued forward, pressing straight toward the Capital. From the time Bai Lang rebelled at the border, it had only been a month, and he had already broken cities and captured passes, and in the famous city of Hebei, he had also severely defeated the imperial court's reinforcements. Now, his military force was only ten days away from the Capital.

Now, there was only one of the Eight Great Passes standing before Bai Lang. Once the Eight Great Passes were broken, there would be no obstacles to the Capital. Next, the Capital could only rely on its own city walls and the Capital Battalion to block Bai Lang's army. The defeated troops had already fled to the Capital, and the Capital was also in a state of panic. The Emperor's edicts for reinforcements were issued incessantly, and the Rongguo Mansion and Ningguo Mansion were also raided along the way.

Because they were suspected of colluding with the rebel Bai Lang.

At the same time, a series of edicts for amnesty were sent to Bai Lang. The price offered had reached the level of being enfeoffed as a king and stationed in a separate area, following the story of the Tang Jiedushi. "This can be considered enfeoffment as a king, right? A Jiedushi of a town, and a real fief at that. I just don't know if there will be a legacy of tooth soldiers..." Bai Lang laughed.

The commander of the Eight Great Passes had fled, and the soldiers in the entire pass had fled, leaving the last key point outside the Capital to be handed over. It was too late to execute the commander now; the guy hadn't even fled into the Capital. And scrape together another batch of troops to fight in the field outside the city? Bai Lang had long been described as a god-like fierce general in the mouths of the fleeing soldiers and generals, and Bai Lang's troops were also said to be invincible once they reached a thousand.

Bai Lang saw the city gates of the Capital. Now, there was no talk of war and chaos outside the city, but the flight of the common people outside the city was real; they all wanted to flee into the city or flee north, south, or east. "Prepare the scaling ladders; I'm going to enter the city today!" Bai Lang's arrogance was so extreme that he acted as if the defenders on the city walls were all dead.

The Capital city walls had cannons. Seeing Bai Lang's army, they just fired indiscriminately regardless of anything. "It's only been three generations since the founding, and this literary and martial decadence has reached this point. Why the hell are they firing randomly at such a long distance? To boost their own courage?" Bai Lang selected fifty men to scale the walls first, carrying the scaling ladders and charging toward the city.

Bai Lang didn't need scaling ladders. He carried his big saber and iron halberd on his back and climbed the wall with his bare hands—anyway, one punch made a pit, and he could climb up by borrowing force a few times, and it was much more flexible than a scaling ladder, allowing him to move horizontally at any time. In just a few breaths, he was on the wall. He swung his big saber and killed three or four people first, then held the big saber in one hand and the iron halberd in the other, killing his way forward.

In this world, he was performing, performing that he could also achieve the achievements of Duke Mengde, and also not let Emperor Wenxiang monopolize the beauty. Bai Lang alone killed and scattered over a thousand people on the city wall, supported the fifty men who scaled the wall first, and then opened the city gates.

The Emperor wanted to hunt in the east, but the problem was that he didn't seem to have time to run. Someone in the city shouted, "The city is broken!" And Bai Lang was already in the lead, "I have come to defend the throne! Do not be afraid, Your Majesty, your humble servant has come to defend the throne and save the carriage!" This sentence directly made those who heard it twist their noses in anger... ===== CHAPTER 642 =====
