Chapter 58: A Dafeng Frontier Army, Slaughtering the Wolf Tribe!

~13 min read 2,547 words

"Is Heize writing a military strategy?" Liu Chengchao was slightly surprised; he had caught a glimpse of the words above. "Isn't this the 'Wolf-Breaking Thirty-Nine Military Strategy' submitted by the Gun King Liu Tou? To think it came from Heize's hand."

"The 'Wolf-Breaking Thirty-Nine Military Strategy'—is that the strategy of using profit to lure them in, then slowly annihilating the Wolf Tribe?"

"Dafeng did not use this strategy, but many dynasties afterward did, and it achieved miraculous results."

"By using trade to indirectly curb the development of the north, it extinguished their bloodlust."

"Heize is truly unexpected; in chaotic times he could be a regional warlord, and in prosperous times he could be a prime minister!"

"It's just that there isn't much time left before the Wolf Tribe invades Dafeng. Where is Heize's strong army?"

The crowd was puzzled, yet full of anticipation.

They knew that, judging by the speed of the images, they would soon see the Wolf Guard being wiped out.

Yet before this, there had been no omens, no information exposed.

This left them filled with shock and doubt.

What exactly had they missed?

When would Heize truly unsheathe his fangs?

In the image, inside the dilapidated Tiejiang Pu, a candle burned, casting a dim, yellow light.

Heize looked at the young girl before him, a gentle smile appearing on his face: "Jia Xiangjun, running away is useless."

"But, the Wolf Tribe is invading! If you stay here, you will die!"

"With my home and country gone, my father gone, my mother gone, where else could I go?"

A trace of sorrow appeared on Heize's face.

His shadow stretched long under the candlelight, appearing exceptionally gaunt.

It was as if he were a wandering soul in this world, drifting and uncertain.

"You can come to my home!" Jia Xiangjun gathered her courage, a look of hope on her face; she looked at Heize with encouraging eyes.

Heize smiled: "Jia Xiangjun, you should go back."

"You..." Jia Xiangjun's eyes turned red. "Heize... you know... you know."

A sigh appeared on Heize's face as he listened to the familiar sound of the night watchman's clapper: "If the country is no longer a country, how can there be a home?"

He still had vengeance to exact.

Matters of the heart would have to be set aside for now.

"I..." Jia Xiangjun looked deeply at Heize. "I will remember you."

She turned and left, tears rolling down from her eyes continuously.

Heize watched Jia Xiangjun's retreating back, whispering to himself: "This seven-foot frame is already promised to the country; it is hard to promise it to you as well."

"What a pity," Liu Chengchao sighed.

At his age, he did not really believe in love.

To him, love was merely something produced by the combined effects of human psychology and physiology.

It could be overcome.

Unlike drug addiction or gambling addiction, which were almost impossible to resist through willpower alone.

He did not believe in love, but Liu Chengchao was still moved by the love of others.

"Sigh, I wonder if Heize regretted not following Jia Xiangjun that day when he wrote that letter to her later on," someone said.

Beside him, Miss Jia suppressed her voice: "He would not regret it."

She understood him, and she admired him.

It was exactly that kind of Heize that she admired; he matched the joy of her youth, he was the young man she loved.

"Only three years remain," Liu Chengchao said.

The forging of a strong army requires baptism by blood and Fire.

Yet even now, Heize remained a lone man.

He possessed his own solitary courage, but after all, the strength of one person was limited.

"Heize went to the Wolf Tribe."

"He gathered accurate information about the Wolf Tribe's invasion of Dafeng and obtained part of their military deployment map."

"Unfortunately, the gap between Dafeng and the Wolf Tribe is too great; even with the military deployment map, Dafeng is fundamentally unable to fight the Wolf Tribe."

"The Wolf Tribe has invaded."

"Heize began assassinating officers, but it was merely a drop in the bucket."

"Though Heize is strong, assassinating Wolf Tribe officers in their heavily guarded military camps is still too difficult."

In the images, Heize almost never succeeded in assassinating a Wolf Tribe officer within the camps.

After all, his Xia appearance was different from the Wolf Tribe's, making it easy for him to be exposed.

Only on the few occasions when Wolf Tribe officers could not stand the loneliness and went to the small mountain villages to pillage did Heize catch an opportunity.

"Even a hero like Heize cannot successfully assassinate Wolf Tribe officers in their camps."

"The protagonist of the previous movie, *Hero*, killing his way into a military camp alone to take away his lover seems excessively unreasonable."

"With less than a year left, the Wolf Tribe will deploy the Wolf Guard into the battlefield. How exactly will Heize deal with this?"

They watched the screen, their hearts filled with immense excitement.

Less than half a year remained until the Wolf Guard invaded Dafeng.

Yet Heize remained all alone.

Although he had made friends with a few wandering knights.

But given the strength of those knights, they probably couldn't even defeat a single Giant Wolf.

The crowd was excited, puzzled, and yet filled with immense anticipation.

"Xiangjun, the Wolf Guard is coming, and I have decided to go seek revenge.

It is a pity that I could not see you one last time; you were better looking than Liu Guafu and Feng Taihou.

In my youth, I was ignorant, mistakenly thinking..."

After thinking for a moment, Heize deleted the latter half of the words.

He rewrote the preceding words and ultimately left behind three characters.

"Left by Heize."

Heize's figure disappeared from sight.

"If my deduction is not wrong, in only half a month, the Wolf Guard will begin to mobilize their troops.

The current Dafeng is already in great chaos and simply cannot stop the Wolf Guard," Liu Chengchao muttered.

However, if they were to treat Heize's story as a movie.

This movie still had not laid the foreshadowing for Heize to defeat the Wolf Guard.

If it were in a movie, it would definitely be criticized.

But this is reality.

Sometimes, reality is often even less logical than a movie.

After all, during the Great Cang period, there were absurd events like meteors falling to defeat a besieging army.

The subsequent developments also became increasingly bizarre.

Time passed quickly.

Heize returned to the small town, just as usual.

The vast small town was empty and desolate, with fewer than a hundred people remaining.

These hundred people were mostly old people or children.

The old could not leave, and the children were orphans.

Heize continued to practice the Spear day after day.

Nearby, a sallow and emaciated child had been peeking.

One day, that child gathered the courage: "Brother Heize, can I learn the Spear technique from you? I also want to kill the Wolf Tribe!"

"Why do you want to learn the Spear technique?"

"My parents were both killed by the Wolf Tribe; I want to seek revenge."

Heize paused for a moment: "War is a matter for adults; you should study at home with peace of mind, and when you are grown up, I will teach you the Spear technique."

"Brother Heize, but everyone says the Wolf Guard is coming, and I won't live to grow up."

Heize paused slightly and looked up at the sky: "Yes, they are coming."

In the distance, dark clouds gathered, and a storm was about to break.

Heize returned to the Tiejiang Pu.

There was no one on the street.

He took out a whetstone and began to sharpen the Spear head earnestly.

He had been sharpening it like this for several days, and the Spear head was gleaming.

"Heiwa, I still have some cured meat at home that I probably won't be able to finish, so I brought you some."

An old woman with a face full of wrinkles walked with a staggering gait, holding a bowl in her hand filled with cured meat.

Heize grinned: "Thank you, Grandma Ma."

"You're still sharpening your Spear," Grandma Ma looked at Heize, "You brat, why don't you run away instead of staying here with us old folks?"

"Where would I run to?"

He saw Grandma Ma back.

Heize continued to sharpen the Spear.

While sharpening the Spear, he grabbed the cured meat with his hand and put it into his mouth.

Suddenly, Heize laughed loudly: "A hero once said, 'In my hunger, I feast on the flesh of the barbarians; in my thirst, I laugh as I drink the blood of the Xiongnu.'

Those brats of the Wolf Tribe are not even worthy of entering my, Heize's, stomach; they aren't even as good as this bowl of cured meat."

After speaking, Heize lifted his Spear and gradually walked into the distance.

Many experts were confused and puzzled.

They were confused about what "barbarians" and "Xiongnu" were.

And they were puzzled about where this poem came from.

But what they were most confused about was, facing the Wolf Guard, Heize just went off alone like that?

"Did Heize go to kill the Wolf Guard?"

"Probably."

"He is all alone."

Many experts felt shocked inside.

They remembered the Life and Death Shrine and the Wolf Tribe characters on the cave wall.

Could it be...

At this moment, Miss Jia's eyes were red, yet filled with a trace of anticipation.

Qin Yi sat on a chair, her gaze dazed, not knowing what she was pondering.

Within the scene.

Heize carried his Spear, walking alone along a mountain path.

The mountain path ahead was not wide, and the terrain was treacherous.

A place like this is simply not suitable for marching.

But the Wolf Guard are different; the Wolf Guard are not an ordinary army, they have Giant Wolves, and for them, jungle warfare allows them to exert even more powerful combat strength.

Right now, it is still midday.

The great sun hangs in the sky, and the sunlight is exceptionally piercing.

In the mountain forest, birds scatter, and all kinds of wild beasts run about.

Heize holds a long Spear, his expression resolute.

Just at this moment, the sound of hoofbeats comes.

Several Wolf Guard scouts appear in his field of vision.

They are riding Giant Wolves, with playful smiles on their faces.

The Giant Wolves are extremely tall, even taller and larger than horses.

A scout smiles and says: "There is a piece of meat here, who wants to do it?"

They laugh, and no one puts Heize in their eyes at all.

But the next second, the smiles on their faces freeze.

The Spear is like a thunderbolt, sweeping across.

Heize's figure flashes by, and suddenly the Wolf Guards who were just alive have no breath of life left.

In just two or three breaths, Heize sweeps once and stabs out seven or eight times with his Spear.

None of these Wolf Guard scouts are able to react, and they all die on the spot one by one.

At this moment, the Giant Wolves are also intimidated by Heize's might and flee for their lives.

Liu Chengchao is shocked.

Miss Jia is stunned.

Qin Yi's face is filled with uncertainty and suspicion.

"Heize... has become stronger!"

"This strike of the Spear, even ten Liu Tou could not block it!"

"Heize's technique can be called that of a generation's Grandmaster!"

Even though the current Heize is performing very strongly.

However, he is facing ten thousand Wolf Guards!

No matter how much he surpasses ordinary people, he is still human!

Having Slayed the few scouts, Heize carries his Spear and continues forward.

Very quickly, he encounters a small vanguard unit of the Wolf Guard.

"So you are the one who killed my Wolf Guard scouts?" This Wolf Guard Commander says with a smile, "My Wolf Guard have been campaigning for decades, and the number of Warriors who have died on the battlefield is no more than a hundred. Since you killed seven or eight of my Wolf Guards alone, in terms of strength, you must be a Martial Arts Grandmaster of Dafeng!"

"So what? You deserve to be killed!"

After saying this, dozens of Wolf Guards immediately blow whistles and charge at Heize with blades in hand.

No matter how strong Heize is, he cannot deal with so many Wolf Guards.

Moreover, in the scene, one can vaguely see more and more Wolf Guards gathering in the rear.

Heize's expression is cold and stern: "This Spear is named God Position; from now on, you shall be called God Position!"

Heize says something inexplicable.

In a place where no one can see, a wisp of Gold flashes through the God Position Spear!

Gun Soul!

At this moment, Heize activates the Gun Soul.

His talent, Slaughter Mastery, also begins to activate at this moment.

Slaughter Mastery is a tyrannical talent.

It kills others and also kills oneself.

Once opened, it means there is no way out!

He sweeps his Spear, and seven or eight Wolf Guards are immediately sent flying, dying in a miserable state.

Also flying away with them are the Giant Wolves!

Several wisps of blood light follow the corpses of these Wolf Guards and merge into Heize's Spear.

A bewitching light shines in Heize's eyes.

"You... who are you?" The small Wolf Guard Commander is shocked.

"A border soldier of Dafeng."

"Today, I will slaughter the entire Wolf Tribe!"

Heize carries his Spear, looking like a demon god.

"This..."

"What is going on?"

"How did Heize suddenly become so strong?"

"The weight of a Giant Wolf is at least two or three tons, yet Heize can sweep away five or six Giant Wolves with one strike of his Spear..."

"What is happening?"

"Why has Heize changed?"

"How did he suddenly become so strong?"

These experts are inexplicably terrified.

At this moment, Heize looks as if a god has borrowed his body.

His strength, at that moment, became extremely terrifying, exceeding everyone's imagination.

Could it be...

Could it be...

Did Heize really stand against ten thousand alone and Slay ten thousand Wolf Guard?

PS: I updated almost eight thousand words today; I have reached my limit.

I really didn't want to Water... If I forced it, I could finish all the plot points by writing a chapter of nonsense, but if I did that, it would certainly be relatively rough, and the reading experience would definitely be very poor.

When doing things, one also pays attention to foreplay; the author just wants to present these things more richly and fully.

It is precisely because I want to write seriously and write well that I wrote a bit more, which might make it seem like Water; this is a problem of the author's insufficient writing ability.

I hope everyone will forgive me! Please stop scolding me!!
