Chapter 311
I am already aware of Your Majesty's request.
Please rest assured, as part of the Da Qian dynasty, Cangzhou ought to jointly resist the rebels.
Cangzhou will dispatch troops to support as soon as possible.
Upon learning of the Da Qian emperor's request, Su Ye gave a slight smile and said to the envoy.
The envoy was deeply grateful and repeatedly thanked him.
Su Ye then discussed specific tactics and strategies with him, ensuring the two armies could coordinate closely to jointly resist the Night King's attack.
At the same time, as dawn broke, in the new army's great camp outside Cangzhou city, banners fluttered and the crowd was noisy.
Wei Qing, clad in armor and holding a long spear, stood heroically on the platform for appointing officers, his gaze like a torch as he scanned the officers below.
Qian Emperor - Qian Emperor (if we include)
Although this new army had not been established long, under Wei Qing's strict training it had already shown promise, displaying considerable combat strength.
Night King Ye Wuhun - Night King Ye Wuhun
At this moment, Wei Qing's heart was filled with heroic ambition.
This expedition, our army will march under the name 'Feather Forest Army' and display our might across the world!
Golden Hammer General Gongsun Yang - Golden Hammer General Gongsun Yang
Night Sha Army - Night Sha Army
Night Sha Grand Army - Night Sha Grand Army
Night Sha Army War God - Night Sha Army War God
Night King's Manor - Night King's Manor
Jade Prefecture - Jade Prefecture
Eight Commanderies of Jade Prefecture - Eight Commanderies of Jade Prefecture
Among the marching troops, two brave commanders stood out particularly.
Jade Harmony Commandery - Jade Harmony Commandery
Roaring Dragon Pass - Roaring Dragon Pass
He knew well that this expedition was not only a severe test for himself, but also an examination of this new army.
The soldiers shouted the army's name, their voices full of excitement and pride.
Da Qian Northern Frontier - Da Qian Northern Frontier
Da Qian border - Da Qian border
They fight not only for their own honor, but also for their lord and even for Cangzhou's external schemes.
Qian Capital - Qian Capital
Qian Army - Qian Army
Tianwu Continent - Tianwu Continent
At the same time, in Yuzhou of the northern frontier of the Da Qian dynasty, the Night King Ye Wuhen, after donning the yellow robe, resolutely chose to rise in rebellion against Qian.
Central Realm? maybe not needed.
Following an order from Ye Wuchen, hundreds of thousands of Night Slaughter Army troops, like ignited beacon fires, instantly burst forth with blazing combat power.
Like a precision machine, every component operated precisely under Ye Wuchen's command.
The prestige of the Night King's Manor, built over hundreds of years, shone over the entire Jade Prefecture like a blazing sun at this moment.
This caused this ancient land to once again radiate brilliant light amidst the torrent of history.
The lands of the eight prefectures of Jade Prefecture, under Ye Wuchen's control, became as orderly as a tamed beast in an instant.
Before this new force, all factions chose to submit one after another.
The political landscape of Jade Prefecture began to undergo earth-shaking changes under Ye Wuchen's decisions.
After securing the rear, Ye Wuchen did not rest but swiftly made strategic deployments.
He left sixty thousand elite Night Slaughter Army troops to garrison the Jade Gate Pass on the Northern Guard Grassland against the tribes, as well as Jade Harmony Commandery behind it.
The remaining 160,000 elite Night Slaughter Army troops then joined with various auxiliary and local forces, together forming a 300,000-strong army.
Mighty and mighty, they marched out of Jade Prefecture, directly pointing at the Qian Capital of the Da Qian dynasty!
Leading the Night Slaughter Army's War God, Gongsun Yang of the golden hammer, clad in golden battle armor and wielding twin violet-gold hammers, exuded a mighty aura.
Leading eight thousand iron cavalry, like a tiger descending the mountain, they surged straight toward the Roaring Dragon Pass at the border of Qian and Heng prefectures in the south of Jade Prefecture (the northeastern direction of the five prefectures of the central region of the Da Qian dynasty, spanning the east and north of that central region).
The eight thousand iron cavalry raised a thunderous sound of hooves, and the dust they kicked up rose like a yellow dragon coiling in the air.
They quickly approached the various outposts and forts that the Da Qian army had hastily set up outside Roaring Dragon Pass.
"The enemy's outposts and forts are right ahead, soldiers, hear my order and follow me in the charge!"
Gongsun Yang raised his violet-gold hammer high and shouted loudly.
"Kill!"
The eight thousand iron cavalry shouted in unison, their voices shaking the heavens.
Like a flood, they surged toward the outposts and forts; the Da Qian soldiers inside, seeing this, were terrified and hastily grabbed their weapons to resist.
However, these outposts and forts were originally hastily erected by the garrison of Roaring Dragon Pass.
They were merely meant to delay the Night Slaughter Army for a while, lacking any substantive stronghold or defense.
Thus, under Gongsun Yang's leadership, the eight thousand Night Slaughter Army cavalry destroyed the Da Qian defenses like cutting through rotting wood.
Gongsun Yang wielded his violet-gold hammer, each swing carrying the force of thunder, striking the Da Qian soldiers and leaving them scattered and broken.
His martial prowess was transcendent, filling the Da Qian soldiers with fear, so none dared to face him head-on.
"The Night Slaughter Army is coming! Run!"
The Da Qian soldiers cried out in terror, fleeing in all directions.
Gongsun Yang led the iron cavalry in pursuit, swiftly clearing most of the Qian troops inside the pass strongholds.
Their speed was so fast that the Qian troops had no time to react before being surrounded by the Ye Sha Army.
"Surrender and you will not be killed!"
Gongsun Yang raised the purple-gold hammer high and shouted loudly.
The Qian troops in each pass stronghold ahead threw down their weapons and surrendered with hands raised.
Originally, the Qian troops stationed in these strongholds were sacrificial pawns.
If they could delay Minglong Pass for a while, that would already be worth their value.
Gongsun Yang stood atop a stronghold, overlooking the wilderness beyond the pass, his heart filled with heroic ambition.
Behind Gongsun Yang, eight thousand iron cavalry stood solemnly at the city's base, their eyes full of admiration and trust in him.
"Pass the order: rest for one day, continue the attack tomorrow!"
Gongsun Yang commanded loudly. His voice was firm and powerful, as if he had already seen the dawn of victory.
The iron cavalry responded in unison, their voices shaking the heavens, as if they would shake the entire Qianzhou.
Gongsun Yang did not rest, after a brief pause.
He quickly regrouped the troops and continued advancing toward Minglong Pass.
He knew that only by swiftly seizing Minglong Pass could he open a passage for the subsequent Ye Sha Grand Army.
Under Gongsun Yang's leadership, the eight thousand iron cavalry swept in like a whirlwind, arriving before the final pass before Minglong Pass.
This pass was also the last important defensive line outside Minglong Pass.
Yet before Gongsun Yang's martial prowess, it seemed fragile and weak.
