Chapter 611: The Sui Army Crosses the River

"Everyone, prepare! Fire!"

Following Lü Bu's loud shout, one hundred spirit stone cannons fired in unison, launching spirit stone cannonballs with immense power.

"Whoosh... whoosh... whoosh..."

A series of piercing sounds streaked over the heads of Qi Yuan and the others; the spirit stone cannonballs, trailing long tails of fire, streaked across the sky.

"General, what are these things? They look so beautiful!"

Many Sui Kingdom naval soldiers' first feeling upon seeing this scene was that it was beautiful, that it looked good.

Unlike these naval soldiers, when Qi Yuan felt the terrifying energy surging within those spirit stone cannonballs, his whole person was scared pale.

"Not good, these things contain terrifying energy; looking at the direction they are falling, it is exactly the direction of our army."

"Once these terrifying things fall into the center of the army crossing the river, then..."

Thinking of this, even with Qi Yuan's cultivation at the first heaven of the Martial Ancestor realm, he could not help but shiver.

Immediately, Qi Yuan mobilized the True Yuan in his body and shouted to the crowd:

"Everyone, quickly get away from those things!"

Hearing this, these Sui Kingdom soldiers did not dare to refute and immediately turned the direction of the warships, sailing in the opposite direction.

And at this time, the highly cultivated Lai Hu'er had also sensed the danger.

When he saw the spirit stone cannonballs in the sky falling rapidly toward the river surface, even with his cultivation at the Martial King realm, he felt the threat.

"Everyone, quickly dodge the things in the sky!"

Seeing the spirit stone cannonballs about to fall, Lai Hu'er could only shout loudly to warn the army.

"All warriors who have reached the Martial Ancestor realm, come with this General to intercept these things!"

Following Lai Hu'er's loud shout, more than twenty Martial Ancestor realm experts rushed out from the entire team.

"Hah..."

More than twenty Martial Ancestor realm experts floated in mid-air, and after a loud shout, they used all their strength to urge their True Yuan to resist the spirit stone cannonballs.

"Boom... boom... boom..."

For a time, the sound of explosions generated by the collision of spirit stone cannonballs and True Yuan shields rang out in the sky.

Seven or eight warriors with cultivation at the first heaven of the Martial Ancestor realm were even blasted away after resisting two or three spirit stone cannonballs.

"Hiss..."

"What a terrifying weapon; I did not expect that there would be such a powerful weapon in the Han army. This time, this General was too arrogant!"

Even with the interception by these experts, more than ten spirit stone cannonballs still fell into the warships crossing the river.

More than ten warships were blown up by the spirit stone cannonballs, and even more soldiers were swept into the Yangtze River by the giant waves that were kicked up.

Just this one wave of attacks caused him to lose nearly five thousand troops, which made his heart ache unbearably.

"You follow this General to guard against the sneak attacks of this mysterious weapon of the Han army; others, hurry up and cross the river at full speed."

"As long as we can successfully land, the Han army will not dare to attack us again!"

Looking at the army falling into chaos, Lai Hu'er circulated his True Yuan power and scolded the crowd.

The army, hearing Lai Hu'er's voice, slowly recovered their formation and began to cross the river once again.

And this scene was also seen by Lü Bu on the opposite bank; seeing Lai Hu'er lead the warriors to intercept most of the spirit stone cannonballs, he could not help but feel disappointed.

"I did not expect that one hundred spirit stone cannonballs only caused the opponent to lose five thousand people!"

"This Lai Hu'er is worthy of being a famous general of the Sui Kingdom; his ability to adapt to circumstances is still very powerful!"

After sighing for a while, Lü Bu gave orders to Hou Cheng and Song Xian again:

"Hou Cheng, Song Xian, send them two more waves of spirit stone cannonballs; let's see how many more they can intercept!"

Following Lü Bu's voice falling, another two hundred spirit stone cannonballs in succession bombarded Lai Hu'er's army crossing the river.

"Boom... boom... boom..."

After a series of rumbling sounds, the more than twenty Martial Ancestor realm warriors led by Lai Hu'er all had their auras withered, with only Lai Hu'er himself remaining unchanged.

However, these two waves of spirit stone cannonballs also caused the Sui army to lose more than ten thousand people.

"Damn Han army, actually daring to launch a sneak attack while this General's army is crossing the river; truly damn it!"

"And this kind of weapon, even without seeing the opponent's face, actually caused this General to lose more than ten thousand people!"

Looking at those dead Sui soldiers, Lai Hu'er's expression was gloomy, and he could not help but shout angrily.

However, the relatively good news was that after these three waves of attacks, they were not far from the shore.

"Hou Cheng, Song Xian, later when Lai Hu'er's army lands, send him two more waves of spirit stone cannonballs; let's see if we can kill a few Martial Ancestor realm experts of the Sui army!"

Seeing the effect of this attack, which was clearly greater than the damage caused by the first wave, Lü Bu immediately said to Hou Cheng and the other.

"This subordinate obeys!"

Very quickly, Lai Hu'er led the army to begin landing, but the army had only just landed halfway when rumbling sounds rang out in the sky again.

The helpless Lai Hu'er could only lead the Martial Ancestor realm warriors to intercept again.

It is just that, in order to intercept the previous attacks, many people's True Yuan had already been consumed almost entirely.

This time, just the first wave of attacks, half of them were not intercepted and fell into the army.

Forty or fifty spirit stone cannonballs caused very great damage; this time, it caused nearly twenty thousand casualties for the Sui army.

However, before they could react, the second wave of one hundred spirit stone cannonballs fell toward the army again.

This time, those Martial Ancestor realm warriors whose True Yuan was exhausted did not make a move to intercept.

Only Lai Hu'er himself, relying on his powerful cultivation, intercepted more than thirty spirit stone cannons alone.

More than sixty spirit stone cannonballs fell into the army again.

"Ah!"

Seeing the spirit stone cannonballs streaking past his eyes and falling into the army, Lai Hu'er's eyes were about to split, and he looked angrily at the tragic scene before him.

"Ah... General, save me..."

"General, help, General..."

Those who were directly blown to death were relatively lucky, while those who were on the edge of the explosion and were only injured, many were struggling in pain.

Many people even fell into the rolling Yangtze River and were washed away by the waves!

This wave of attacks took away another twenty thousand of Lai Hu'er's army.

One hundred thousand troops crossed the river, and less than half successfully landed; for Lai Hu'er, this was simply a huge blow.

Fortunately, no Martial Ancestor realm experts were lost, otherwise his losses this time would have been even greater.

Even if he successfully wiped out the Han army this time, after returning to the capital, he would not be able to explain it to Yang Guang.

"Everyone, quickly form a formation to guard against the Han army's attack; the naval troops, return immediately to transport the next batch of the army across the river!"

Lai Hu'er fell from the sky, stood by the river, and shouted loudly to the remaining forty thousand-plus army.

Hearing Lai Hu'er's order, these Sui soldiers began to form a defensive formation and began to advance toward the position of Lü Bu's army.

And at the same time, on the opposite bank, He Ruobi, upon seeing Lai Hu'er being attacked, led the experts in the army and rushed over at high speed. ===== CHAPTER 612 =====
