Chapter 42: A Crushing Defeat for the Turkic Forces
"Hmph, you overconfident fellow!"
Yu Rui did not even take Chu Feng's attack seriously.
He believed that he only needed one move to easily take Chu Feng down.
Clang!
"Ah!"
A scream suddenly rang out.
One could see a person flying at extreme speed in the direction he had just come from.
Everyone present was deeply captivated by this situation.
"What the hell, what just flew past?"
"It seems to be Lord Yu Rui!"
"What!!!"
"......"
All the Turkic soldiers were instantly stunned.
Just now, they only felt a gust of wind fly over their heads.
As it turned out, they never expected that the person who flew out was their leader, Yu Rui.
In an instant.
The entire troop was in an uproar.
Their own leader had been taken out in a single exchange.
How the hell were they supposed to fight now?
"There is still a gap between Postnatal cultivation and an Innate expert!"
"I should raise my strength to the Innate stage!"
No sooner said than done.
Chu Feng immediately added all his remaining Killing Points to his cultivation.
【Name: Chu Feng】
【Race: Human】
【Techniques: 《Qi Refining Technique》(Minor Achievement) + 《Eighteen Wind-Chasing Sabers》(Great Achievement), 《Tyrant Spear》(Minor Achievement), 《Purple Firmament Profound Heaven Art》(Entry Level)】
【Realm: Innate Initial Stage】
【Strength: 60,000 jin】
【Talent: Master Archer】
【Killing Points: 32】
Chu Feng suddenly felt as if his entire body had been reborn.
The intense contrast made him feel as if this wasn't even his own body.
"Is this the power of Innate cultivation?"
Chu Feng felt somewhat surprised.
Such formidable ability was simply incomparable to the Postnatal stage.
With this kind of strength, he felt he could even trade a few blows with the Dingyuan General, Zhao Ping.
Of course, limited to just a few blows.
After all, a Grandmaster expert is still incredibly formidable!
He pulled back his thoughts.
Relying on his newly elevated, powerful strength.
Chu Feng unleashed a sweep, instantly clearing a large, empty vacuum zone in front of him.
To him, these Turkic cavalrymen were nothing more than a group of ants.
He would kill as many as came.
"All troops, charge! Target the enemy's center!"
"Yes!"
The men following behind Chu Feng shouted in unison.
Because Chu Feng had taken out the enemy leader in one move, their own morale had instantly surged.
The sabers and spears in their hands flew everywhere, continuously reaping the lives of the Turkic soldiers before them.
After seeing Yu Rui fall, the three thousand Turkic soldiers no longer had the courage to continue fighting.
Especially after seeing the opponent clear a vacuum zone with a single move.
These Turkic soldiers were instantly scared out of their wits.
Not one of them dared to engage the Great Wei cavalry head-on.
Almost everyone's subconscious reaction was to turn their horses around and flee for their lives.
"Mommy, these Wei cavalry are simply too terrifying!"
"Damn it, run, horse, run!"
"Is the leader of this Wei cavalry a monster? Why is he so formidable?"
"Th-that... is it too late for me to join the Great Wei nationality now?"
The three thousand Turkic cavalry were soon beaten into a rout by the troop led by Chu Feng.
After crushing these three thousand Turkic cavalry.
Chu Feng led his troop to strike directly at the enemy's center.
"Report, General, something terrible has happened!"
The messenger hurried to stand before Wu Ha, "Our three thousand cavalry have been completely routed, and the enemy is now charging toward us!"
"What?"
Wu Ha was greatly shocked.
He simply could not believe his own ears.
The three thousand cavalry he had just dispatched had actually been routed head-on by the opponent's one thousand cavalry.
How could this be possible?
"No, you must be reporting false military intelligence; see if I don't kill you!"
Wu Ha drew his precious sword, intending to execute the messenger on the spot.
It was precisely at this moment.
An event even more shocking to him occurred.
"No... no, the... the Great Banner!"
Hearing this, Wu Ha hurriedly turned his head to look.
He saw that the Great Banner located in the center of the army had snapped suddenly for no apparent reason.
It was also at this moment that the troop led by Chu Feng finally charged into the center of the army.
Swish, swish, swish, swish...
Chu Feng pulled his longbow to its full draw, and several arrows flew out in response to the sound.
In the blink of an eye, they harvested several lives.
"Yan Can, go and kill that fellow for me!"
Wu Ha saw at a glance the greatest threat within this troop.
Everywhere this person passed, countless Turkic soldiers lost their lives on the spot one after another.
"This subordinate obeys!"
Yan Can held his great blade and spurred his horse forward.
His strength was at the Innate mid-stage cultivation, far stronger than the previous Yu Rui.
"Thief, stop being so arrogant, your Grandpa Yan Can is here!"
"Hm?"
Chu Feng, who was in the middle of a charge, heard the sound and looked over.
He saw a man holding a great blade galloping toward him.
"Yo, another big experience pack has delivered itself to my door!"
Chu Feng was overjoyed.
The points gained from slaughtering these small soldiers were simply too few.
Experience packs with this kind of Innate cultivation provided enough points.
Watching the battle from afar, Wu Ha felt very smug.
Yan Can was the most formidable existence under his command.
Even if Yu Rui had died in battle, as long as Yan Can took the field, victory was certain.
Who would have thought that the subsequent development would make Wu Ha's jaw drop.
"How is this possible?"
Wu Ha's entire jaw was about to fall off in shock.
He saw that after only one exchange with Chu Feng, Yan Can was skewered to death by the opponent's spear.
Seeing such a scene, Wu Ha felt as if he were dreaming.
His strongest subordinate hadn't even lasted a single exchange in the other person's hands.
After finishing off Yan Can, Chu Feng immediately locked onto Wu Ha in the crowd.
There was no help for it.
This kid's armor was simply too flashy and eye-catching; it was hard not to notice him.
Immediately, Chu Feng spurred his horse and charged straight toward Wu Ha.
"Block him, block him, everyone hurry up and block him for me!"
Wu Ha's very soul was about to be scared out of his body.
He only had Martial Master Perfection cultivation; how could he be a match for an Innate expert?
Not to mention that this Innate expert had killed his strongest subordinate in one move.
"Those who block me die!"
Charging into the enemy formation, Chu Feng was like a fierce tiger entering a sheep pen.
One man, one horse, one spear.
He slaughtered the enemy army until they were crying for their fathers and mothers, wailing in misery.
"Retreat, retreat, hurry and cover my retreat!"
Having no other choice, Wu Ha hurriedly ordered everyone to cover his retreat.
He was a young Prince of a large Turkic tribe, and his life was extremely precious.
He absolutely could not be killed or even captured alive by the opponent.
The Turkic army collapsed like a mountain for a time.
More soldiers no longer chose to resist but instead scrambled to save their lives.
And this situation directly brought misery to the soldiers who were currently attacking the city.
When they saw the scene of the main force rapidly retreating, one by one they also lost interest in attacking the city.
Then they also hurriedly followed the main force to retreat.
"The enemy has retreated, brothers, follow me and charge!"
Seeing that the enemy's formation was in chaos, Xiang Yuan immediately gathered all his subordinates to prepare to launch a charge.
"Open the city gates!"
Zhu Kang immediately had people open the city gates.
Just after Xiang Yuan entered Anwu County, he had already discussed the specific countermeasures with Zhu Kang.
At first, Zhu Kang thought the other party was crazy.
What kind of waves could just these two thousand people stir up?
It was not until he saw the Turkic army suddenly fall into chaos and the Great Banner of the central army fall for some unknown reason.
Only then did he understand just how formidable the strength of the general who charged into the enemy formation was.
The city gates opened.
Xiang Yuan immediately led his troops to charge and kill.
In an instant.
Countless Turkic soldiers died one after another at their hands.
It was not until these Turkic soldiers had all retreated into their camp that this battle finally ended.
"Hahahahaha..."
"Satisfying, truly satisfying!"
"Tiny Turkic force, nothing more than this!"
"You Turkic dog pups, come out!"
All the officers and soldiers were immersed in joy.
Two thousand people chasing and hacking at tens of thousands.
This feat was worth them bragging about for a lifetime.
"What are the casualties?"
"My Lord, our side has 136 men killed and 300 wounded!"
In this battle, Chu Feng paid a price of nearly 500 casualties.
However, the crisis in Anwu County had not yet completely ended.
The Turkic side still had a terrifying number of tens of thousands of people.
"Return to the city to rest!"
"Yes!"
The troops immediately returned to Anwu County.
At the gate.
Zhu Kang had already been waiting there.
"Subordinate Zhu Kang, greets Colonel Chu!"
"Lord Zhu!"
Chu Feng dismounted and returned the salute.
Zhu Kang looked Chu Feng up and down.
He saw that the other party was also a young man of no more than twenty years old.
To have such formidable cultivation strength at the age of twenty.
To dare to charge against tens of thousands of Turkic troops with only two thousand men, and to actually beat them back.
If he hadn't seen this scene with his own eyes, Zhu Kang would never have believed it.
"Zhu Kang, on behalf of all the people of the county, thanks Colonel Chu for the life-saving grace; all the people of Anwu County will never forget your kindness."
"Lord Zhu is too polite; driving back the enemy and protecting the people is the duty of us soldiers."
"Hahaha, this is not the place to talk, Colonel Chu, please come in, the banquet has already been prepared for you."
"Then Chu will not decline!"
Everyone immediately entered the city to rest.
Zhu Kang also took Chu Feng to attend the banquet.
Because the enemy army had not yet retreated, everyone could only use tea instead of wine.
"Colonel Chu, although the Turkic force has retreated, they still have tens of thousands of troops; with our remaining strength, we simply cannot contend with them."
"If they come to attack the city again tomorrow, how will we resist?"
Chu Feng swallowed a piece of meat and smiled.
"Hahaha..."
"Rest assured, they won't be able to attack the city tomorrow at all!"
"Oh? Could it be that Colonel Chu already has a strategy to repel the enemy?"
"Of course!"
Zhu Kang asked further: "I wonder what strategy Colonel Chu has to repel the enemy?"
Chu Feng smiled mysteriously: "Heavenly secrets must not be leaked! My Lord only needs to do as I say!"
"This subordinate will naturally cooperate fully! I just don't know what I should do?"
"Look, we do it like this!"
"..."
