Chapter 48

PS: New book uploaded, seeking collections, flowers, and ratings!

Everything was settled, and that day, Su Xuan and the others rested in Fancheng for the night.

Early the next morning, after breakfast;

The army set out, heading toward Wancheng in a grand manner.

They had lunch on the way and arrived outside Wancheng around 1:00 PM.

"Hahaha! Qu Shuai! Those government troops are here again! Haven't they lost enough yet? Should I lead troops out of the city to charge and kill a wave?"

Watching the government troops attack again, on the city walls, Han Zhong couldn't help but laugh loudly.

"I am willing too!"

Sun Xia, Zhao Hong, and others also requested to fight.

"Alright! Calm down!"

Zhang Zhang Mancheng saw this, happy but also worried, pressed his hands down, looked at the approaching government troops in the distance, and frowned: "The government army generals are not fools. If they didn't have the confidence of victory, they wouldn't have come to attack rashly after being defeated once;"

"There is likely a trick in this, better to be careful;"

"Without my order, no one is allowed to leave the city to meet the enemy. Defend the city first;"

"I want to see what kind of trick the government army is playing."

Being able to become a Qu Shuai and daring to call himself the Divine Envoy, Zhang Zhang Mancheng was clearly not a fool and saw at a glance that there was a problem.

Han Zhong and Sun Xia heard this and exchanged glances quietly, both seeing the regret in each other’s eyes.

Zhang Zhang Mancheng is not easy to fool!

Fortunately, the Lord’s plan was not this.

It didn't have much impact.

Since Zhang Zhang Mancheng had said so, the others naturally had no objections.

"Kill!!"

Soon, led by Huang Zhong and Old Dian Wei.

The government army split into two routes, one of 20,000, led by Qin Jie and Zhao Ci, fiercely attacking the South City Gate of Wancheng;

One of 4,000, led by Xu Ju, fiercely attacking the East City Gate.

As for Su Xuan, he followed Qin Jie and watched the battle from the rear.

And the Xuanjia Army had long since separated from the main force, detoured to the west, made a big circle, arrived in a mountain forest west of Wancheng, and temporarily lurked.

With the terrifying cultivation of Huang Zhong and Old Dian Wei at the peak and middle stage of Gang Qi, they were like a hot knife through butter from the start, catching the Huang Jin army off guard.

In a few moves, they led the charge onto the city walls.

Then, they continued to expand their results, bringing more government soldiers onto the city walls to resist the Huang Jin army’s counterattack.

"Bad! The enemy has fierce generals!"

"Quick! Quick! Stop them! Don't let them continue to expand their results!!"

Zhang Zhang Mancheng saw Huang Zhong’s unstoppable momentum at the South City Gate, his expression changed drastically, and he immediately ordered more soldiers to rush up to surround and block Huang Zhong.

He even sent several generals to intercept Huang Zhong.

But ordinary soldiers were like weeds to Huang Zhong and were useless.

Those so-called generals had at most the cultivation of the early stage of Ming Qi.

One slash each, and before long, they were all easily beheaded by Huang Zhong.

They couldn't stop Huang Zhong at all.

This scene made Zhang Zhang Mancheng’s heart cold.

He himself only had the cultivation of the peak of Hua Jing. Looking at this momentum, he estimated that for Huang Zhong, it would be a matter of one or two slashes, right?

"Qu Shuai! Can't stop them!!"

Han Zhong ran back to Zhang Zhang Mancheng’s side, covered in blood, and warned.

"Send half of the 2,000 Huang Jin Warriors under my command to surround him, led by you. Do you have confidence?"

Zhang Zhang Mancheng immediately ordered Han Zhong.

Huang Jin Warriors are dead soldiers cultivated by Zhang Jiao using special secret methods.

These people have terrifying blood and energy, are as strong as oxen, and have extremely powerful defenses. Ordinary swords can barely break their defense.

Zhang Zhang Mancheng only had 2,000 in his hands, his true trump card.

Originally, he didn't want to use them easily.

Because these Huang Jin Warriors consume their life force every moment they use secret methods to fight.

They are overdrawing their potential and lifespan.

Once used excessively, they will all die suddenly.

"I dare not disobey!"

Han Zhong heard this and was overjoyed. He had long wanted to get in touch with those Huang Jin Warriors in Zhang Zhang Mancheng’s hands and wanted to find a way to control them.

Now he finally had a chance.

Although, as long as Zhang Zhang Mancheng was still alive, he wouldn't be able to completely control these Huang Jin Warriors.

But the premise of all this was whether Zhang Zhang Mancheng could still be alive after today!

Additionally, moving the Huang Jin Warriors to the south of the city was also a task assigned to him and Sun Xia by his Lord, Su Xuan.

He had completed his side.

Next, it depended on Sun Xia’s side.

"Kill!!"

Soon, Han Zhong led a thousand Huang Jin Warriors to form a military formation and met Huang Zhong.

For a time, Huang Zhong really couldn't do anything to these Huang Jin Warriors.

"Oh?"

Huang Zhong was greatly surprised. While fighting Han Zhong and the Huang Jin Warriors, he muttered in his heart: "With this combat power, even if I don't hold back, I don't seem to be able to take them down in a short time!"

"Zhang Jiao really has some tricks."

At the same time, over at the East City Gate,

The Huang Jin army was also in a precarious situation under the charge of Old Dian Wei.

Sun Xia immediately let Zhao Hong stay behind, and he himself rushed to the South City Tower at the fastest speed to ask Zhang Zhang Mancheng for reinforcements.

"Qu Shuai! It’s bad! A terrifying peerless fierce general has appeared at the East City Gate, seemingly a master at the Gang Qi level. Under his leadership, we can’t hold on anymore. Please send reinforcements quickly."

Sun Xia reported to Zhang Zhang Mancheng in a very disheveled state.

"What?"

Zhang Zhang Mancheng’s expression changed again, horrified: "There is also a Gang Qi level fierce general at the East City? How is this possible? Where did the government army get so many peerless fierce generals?"

"How does he compare to this person?"

Zhang Zhang Mancheng pointed to Huang Zhong, who was fighting fiercely with a thousand Huang Jin Warriors, and asked Sun Xia.

Sun Xia immediately looked over and thought: "I know General Huang Zhong well! He is indeed invincible! Fortunately, I abandoned the darkness for the light early and surrendered to the Lord, otherwise, my life would be in danger;"

"Sure enough, there is no future in being a Huang Jin rebel! It’s better to follow the Lord."

These thoughts flashed through his mind. He pretended to examine carefully and replied: "Although judging from the intensity of the Gang Qi, the realm is slightly inferior, the fierce general at the East City is over 1 zhang tall, has unparalleled divine strength, and is also unstoppable. Please, Qu Shuai, send reinforcements quickly;"

"I’m afraid only the Huang Jin Warriors can resist such a peerless fierce general."

Han Zhong’s task had been completed, how could he fall behind?

He still wanted to earn more merit so he could exchange it for advanced cultivation methods at the Merit Pavilion.

Perhaps, in the future, he could also become a peerless fierce general like General Huang Hansheng and General Old Dian Wei, hehe!

"Is that so?"

Zhang Zhang Mancheng heard this, frowned, but didn't doubt it. He immediately took a token from his bosom, handed it to Sun Xia, and ordered: "Good! Take this token, quickly go into the city to mobilize the remaining 1,000 Huang Jin Warriors to support the East City, and be sure to hold the East City for me;"

"Also, don't mess around. If you lose my Huang Jin Warriors, I will behead you!"

This was his trump card and absolutely could not be lost.

Even if Wancheng was lost, the Huang Jin Warriors could not be lost.

As long as the Huang Jin Warriors were there, even if Wancheng was lost, he still had the confidence to make a comeback.

"Yes!"

Sun Xia immediately took the token, bowed, and left quickly.
