Chapter 831: Escape (8400 Supplement)

~8 min read 1,484 words

"Fellow Daoist Dulongzi, what do you think of my Supreme Thunder Technique?"

Watching his Six Jia Divine Soldiers advance like a hot knife through butter, Aaron could not help but laugh heartily.

"Truly peerless and sharp, unlike anything of the mortal world!"

Dulongzi answered in a daze, then glanced at the three little ones following by Aaron's side.

It was said that this Supreme Divine Thunder was refined by the other party?

But looking at them, these three child acolytes had yet to open their Heavenly Gate or attain Heavenly Human Induction, meaning they possessed no Daoism!

'What if... in the future, this Supreme Divine Thunder falls upon my head as a Daoist? Fortunately, these child acolytes are all ordinary people and can be deceived by Daoism!'

Just as Dulongzi was comforting himself, he heard Aaron laugh: "Among the Buddhist and Taoist schools, many refuse to submit to the King's law... If we gain the world in the future, whichever school refuses to submit, we shall simply order a death-sworn soldier to take the Supreme Divine Thunder and blast their mountain gate to the ground!"

Seeming to see what Dulongzi was thinking, Aaron added: "Of course, before going, we shall at least grant the death-sworn soldier a Fifth Rank Official status. What do you think?"

The two crossed paths, and in less than two rounds, Hei Er had his left arm sliced off by a sword.

"Though my soldiers and armor are sharp, alas, I lack an enlightened master!"

He was filled with gloom, but suddenly the space before his eyes cleared and opened up; he had broken through the encirclement and reached the edge of the battlefield.

Aaron waved his hand, and a Captain came over, saying loudly: "Our side lost two hundred men in battle, with over seventy seriously wounded... This battle resulted in the killing of over five hundred and thirty enemy troops, the capture of over one thousand, and the seizure of a large amount of supplies..."

If it were the other side, perhaps some would think it was Daoism, but Dulongzi knew that Daoism and Military Qi were fundamentally incompatible; the so-called Talisman Water Dao Soldiers were simply a joke.

After seeing Li Tie's personal guards all slaughtered, Dulongzi was shocked again: "How were such fierce soldiers... trained?"

"Come here, report the battle losses!"

But in the end, they were submerged by a sea of people, and Zhan Da held up Li Tie's head: "The commander is dead, will you not surrender yet?!"

The Fengxiang Army collapsed instantly; many soldiers dropped their weapons, some fled, and others knelt to surrender...

But no matter how he racked his brains, he could not figure out how such excellent, obedient, and fearless soldiers were trained.

"Die!"

Dulongzi watched with great envy, then saw the Six Jia Divine Soldiers regrouping, with only three hundred left, and could not help but gasp: "To lose more than half in one battle... such a strong army is wasted, truly a pity!"

You... you... are you a Demon?

Chen Zitong no longer hesitated, immediately mounted his horse, looked at the army formation that had already lost its commander, shook his head, and prepared to ride away.

The twilight was like blood.

"This battle was truly stifling!"

Aaron sighed and looked at Dulongzi: "Does the Daoist have any recommendations?"

'Now that rebels are rising everywhere, the world is about to fall into chaos!'

He had observed the Qi before; the Military Qi of Li Tie's Fengxiang Army was like a vicious wolf, so they should have won!

Who would have thought they would hit an iron plate at this moment!

"Xulingzi... this Daoist is not right!"

Just as he was about to lead men to charge again, a small cavalry unit from the opposite side had already killed their way over, using the Fengxiang Army's own horses and equipment: "Kill!"

"No, I absolutely cannot die here!"

The few remaining personal guards fought through blood, trying to get Li Tie onto a horse.

One could see the enemy breaking the Array and launching a surprise attack... the soldiers were all fearless, and in the end, a cavalry unit even charged near Li Tie!

This Jiedushi had used his personal guard unit to fill the gaps, and with insufficient defensive forces around him, he was actually killed through!

But he smiled miserably as he also stabbed a knife into Li Tie's warhorse!

Another hillside.

"The Hidden Dragon is protected by Dragon Qi after all, and has left the battlefield smoothly."

Aaron scanned the battlefield and said: "Write it down... our army shall establish a 'Propaganda Battalion', specifically responsible for finishing off the wounded after battle, burying corpses, guarding prisoners, and other such matters!"

Zhan Da led a small cavalry unit on horseback, patrolling the battlefield and suppressing deserters; he actually appeared to have some talent as a brave general.

'Li Tie is dead... but there are still four or five thousand men in the Fengxiang Army's main camp. If I take my trusted aides to kill the commanders and seize the army, I can control them immediately!'

Just then, he caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye and saw that a unit of his own men had actually escaped from the camp; he was overjoyed and went to join them: "Quick, retreat with me!"

"What?"

The enemy had three thousand in total, which meant half of the deserters had run away!

Who told him he had too few men to guard so many.

You Daoist, you trained soldiers, occupied territory, and even started a rebellion... yet you haven't even found a single Hidden Dragon; what kind of dragon are you supporting?

This is completely playing outside the rules!

……

……

Not only did they collapse, but those deserters even turned back to scatter his own right flank!

Cangsong let out a long breath.

Dulongzi felt that all the surprise of his life was going to be used up today.

Dulongzi widened his eyes, staring at Aaron, his face full of horror and fear.

At the same time, a sense of ambition rose in his heart.

……

"Not only that, the death of the great general leaves the Fengxiang Army leaderless, which is also an opportunity to compete."

With an official status, one would not be deceived by Daoism, and then supplemented by this Supreme Divine Thunder? What Daoist or monk could resist?

The Five Xiaos Sect was not paying attention; first, the remnants of the Candle Dragon Path started an uprising, then the evil Daoist Xulingzi rebelled... adding many obstacles to the Hidden Dragon's rise for nothing!

Thinking of this, he could not help but feel a bit bewildered: "Could it be... that this is Heavenly Intent?"

At this moment, it was when the Six Jia Divine Soldiers were advancing like a hot knife through butter, charging into the enemy formation.

"Only by holding military power in one's hands can one truly advance to attack and retreat to defend!"

Watching the rebel soldiers gradually surrounding him, Li Tie wore a bitter smile; despite suffering several wounds, he still fought with all his might...

"Leave... I have lost the army and disgraced the country, where else can I go?"

Hei Er took the lead, the Light of his blade flickering, and heads flew horizontally.

Two Daoists rode their horses, looking at the battlefield on the riverbank.

He inexplicably felt that Jiangzhou Prefecture had been a bit too lively lately.

Looking around, Li Tie felt only bewilderment, then drew his precious sword: "Lads, charge with me!"

As it happened, a warhorse that had lost its master was right nearby.

Cangsong's face was grave: "You and I should report to the True Person of our sect immediately; we cannot let this evildoer benefit in the end!"

Li Tie had also practiced sword techniques, so he thrust his sword and went up to meet them.

If Chen Zitong were to be killed in the Array here, he would truly vomit blood.

"Commander... run quickly!"

The warhorse let out a mournful cry and collapsed to the ground, throwing Li Tie off.

The other senior Daoist brother's expression was grave: "Although this conforms to the development of Dragon Qi... the result of this battle is wrong!"

Chen Zitong's head was dizzy and his vision was a sea of blood; he hacked and slashed with all his might at those blocking his escape, unable to distinguish between enemies and comrades, but regardless, anyone who blocked his flight would be killed!

He did not know what had happened either; after a few thunderous explosions, the vanguard had scattered like ducks.

What did it matter if more than half the army was lost?

Were these captives and corpses not all his own soldiers?

Another day, he would let Dulongzi witness his ability to fight and replenish, capture and deploy, all at once!
