Chapter 373

An explosion rang out, the powerful force of the black powder, combined with the iron pieces inside the grenades, instantly shot out!

Some unlucky Chu soldiers were directly blown into the sky!

The iron pieces shot out from the grenades, carrying a whistling sound, began their frantic ravaging!

Swish!

Swish, swish!

The sharp iron pieces pierced into the warhorses, pierced into the Chu soldiers' thin leather armor, and embedded themselves fiercely; the warhorses neighed, and the formation was thrown into chaos!

This was the power of the grenades!

"Continue!"

"Bomb them for me!"

"Their cavalry—their formation must be thrown into chaos!"

Gao Yang's voice was cold, carrying endless chill.

The Da Qian soldiers stepped forward one after another, throwing grenades with a beautiful arc into the battlefield, which then exploded!

That terrifying power began to ravage the entire battlefield!

And compared to the sneak attack that time with Lu Zhen, this time the number of grenades was greater and more terrifying!

This was a battle that would decide their fate!

Da Qian had no reservations, because losing meant death!

So at this moment, this trump card of grenades was not hidden at all!

Boom!

Boom, boom!

Explosions swept across the entire battlefield!

The Chu army's vanguard cavalry suffered heavy casualties in an instant!

The warhorses were startled, charging wildly, and countless Chu soldiers were trampled to death by the horses, their formation thrown into chaos!

Chu Qingluan saw this scene, her eyes splitting with rage.

Although she was mentally prepared, when she truly saw the Chu army being blown into the sky, she still felt a pang of heart pain!

Those were all the elites she had used to pacify the six kingdoms!

Losing so many all at once!

"Damn it!"

"Gao Yang, you better not fall into my hands, otherwise I will definitely make you wish you were dead, wish you were dead!"

Chu Qingluan roared.

She then ordered the Chu army's war drums to be beaten, ordering the entire army to continue the slaughter!

"Fire attack!"

"Alcohol!"

"Grenades!"

"You have used all the methods you could; in the face of true strength, what other methods can you have?"

Chu Qingluan stared fixedly at the direction of Changan, her eyes sinister.

But the next second, her expression was stunned.

Because she was surprised to find that the position where the Da Qian dragon banner was located had actually moved!

This dragon banner—was moving forward!

She was a bit incredulous, "This Da Qian Empress, she actually wants to personally... charge the formation?"

Outside Changan.

Gao Yang took a deep breath and drew his saber.

In this great battle, there was no other way.

In this kind of head-on charge, without a large number of flintlock guns, without Maxim machine guns, these methods were ultimately minor tricks.

What truly decided the outcome was the head-on slaughter of blade against blade!

These methods were, firstly, to cause great lethality to the Chu army, and secondly, to boost their own morale!

Their combat power was not as good as the enemy's, their numbers were not as good as the enemy's; what could be moved was morale!

The morale of the entire army!

Only in this way could they burn their boats and fight to the death!

Wu Zhao gripped the saber in her hand; inside her wide dragon robe was a sturdy soft armor.

This soft armor was left behind by the past emperors of Da Qian, but since the founding ancestor of Da Qian, it had not been on the battlefield!

But now, this soft armor had followed her onto the battlefield!

Wu Zhao held her saber high with her right hand, her dragon robe seeming to burn under the golden sunlight, the pattern of the five-clawed golden dragon seeming to condense into reality, about to rush straight into the nine heavens!

"Soldiers of Da Qian!"

"Follow me in the charge!"

"I am with you!"

Wu Zhao's voice resounded, and she rode at the front, charging out.

Behind her, eight hundred Da Qian elites holding Mo sabers followed closely behind Wu Zhao and Gao Yang.

They were clad in heavy armor, their faces stern, their eyes erupting with powerful fighting spirit; with the Emperor leading the charge, even if eight hundred charged against one hundred thousand, what was there to fear?

To be accurate, the Mo sabers in their hands were not true Mo sabers; true Mo sabers were not only long but extremely heavy.

Even for elites, it was very difficult to hold a Mo saber and kill enemies on horseback while wearing tens of catties of iron armor!

But true Mo sabers could be used by infantry to resist cavalry!

These Mo sabers, named by Gao Yang, used the irrigation steel method and were far sharper than before, but they should be called Su iron sabers.

At this moment, the eight hundred Da Qian elites were like wolves and tigers, like the most solid shield, guarding Wu Zhao.

Wu Zhao charged into the battlefield.

Have you not heard that heaven never closes all paths? If there is truly no path to walk, then move the dragon banner forward and carve out a bloody path!

Beside her were Shangguan Wan'er, Li Long, Gao Yang, and a group of guards fighting in blood.

Some Da Qian soldiers who had long since charged to the front line and were unable to withstand the Great Chu's offensive were stunned.

They looked at that dragon banner that had killed its way to the very front, and endless stormy waves rolled in their hearts—the Emperor of Da Qian... had come, had come to save them!

The dragon banner moved forward, and with the Emperor's own body, she killed her way to the front line; some old Da Qian veterans were so excited that their whole bodies trembled, their eyes filled with tears.

While letting out roars, they charged fearlessly toward the Chu army in front of them!

"Guard Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty has arrived personally; kill for me!"

"Slaughter this bunch of bastards!"

The Da Qian soldiers all went crazy; they wore frantic expressions, desperately leaning toward the position where the dragon banner was, guarding it like madmen!

To them, the meaning of the dragon banner was extraordinary.

This was not just a dragon banner; this was the backbone of every Da Qian soldier, the courage and hot blood of the soldiers, the willingness to die for the monarch without regret!

Since the Emperor was still fighting to the death, how could they retreat?

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

The Da Qian soldiers fought bravely, leaning toward the dragon banner!

Looking down from above at the entire battlefield, a shocking scene was born.

Where the dragon banner was, the two sides were completely different.

On one side was the Chu army fighting to the death to kill toward the dragon banner, and on the other side were the Da Qian soldiers frantically guarding toward the dragon banner.

The two sides collided fiercely, unfolding the most miserable slaughter.
