Chapter 419: The Final Battle

Time passed quickly.

After a day and a night, many in the Northern Frontier Army had learned how to use the Automatic Rifle, as well as how to drive.

As for those few Cannons, Xiao Dabao had also learned how to use them by watching videos and had even taught several disciples.

Everything was ready, just waiting for the great battle.

"Prince!" A messenger rushed into the camp tent, "The Imperial Army has finished reorganizing and the troops are in formation; it looks like they are preparing to start the battle."

Xiao Moting was sitting in the camp; hearing this, he raised his head and said in a deep voice.

"They've come at the right time. Then let them see our new weapons from Beijiang."

After a night of discussion, he and the Old General, Qin Zhan, and several other generals had worked out a strategy, just waiting for the battle.

The sky was already bright, and in front of the camp, the dark mass of the Imperial Army stood in the distance.

Although Zhou Yanli had taken the Tiger Tally and drawn away a portion of the Yuan Family Army, many soldiers still remained and had not followed him in his defection.

Xiao Qiyu sat on his horse, his face devoid of any smile, his eyes turning gloomy.

He had suffered a loss before, and now he must regain his face.

The Firearm Squad was in formation at the front, the Red Barbarian Cannons were placed at intervals, and behind them followed the armored cavalry, looking majestic and awe-inspiring.

"Woo— woo—"

The horn sounded, the military formation was solemn and orderly!

The two armies stood opposed.

Yang Tianhu raised his head, looked at the Northern Frontier Army in front, and a mocking smile appeared on his face.

"Prince, the Northern Frontier Army opposite has so few men; it seems Zhou Yanli is also afraid of our guns and cannons and dares not send his troops."

The opposing army was small in number, only twenty or thirty thousand.

Xiao Qiyu smiled arrogantly, "That is only natural."

The power of the Firearm Squad and the Red Barbarian Cannons was extraordinary; the previous battle had wiped out tens of thousands of the Northern Frontier Army.

He raised his sword and shouted sharply.

"Charge!"

The war drums sounded in unison, and the troops on both sides picked up their Long Swords and rushed forward one after another.

Yang Tianhu shouted loudly.

"Firearm Squad, fire!"

The members of the Firearm Squad were already prepared, raising their guns in unison and aiming forward.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

A crisp, dense burst of gunfire rang out.

The Imperial Army soldiers charging at the very front fell in rows.

Xiao Qiyu, who had been feeling smug, suddenly had his expression change drastically.

"What is going on?"

Once the gunfire started, it should have been the Northern Frontier Army falling, so why was it the other way around?

Rat-tat-tat...

The dense gunfire had not yet stopped.

Yang Tianhu came to his senses and looked at the front in shock.

"Prince, it seems the gunfire is coming from the Northern Frontier Army side!"

"They have guns?" Xiao Qiyu was even more shocked, "Where did they get their weapons from?"

At this moment, the vanguard battalion of the Imperial Army had been completely wiped out.

Yang Tianhu roared, "Fire the cannons!"

Several Red Barbarian Cannons were immediately loaded, aimed forward, and prepared to fire!

Boom!

The deafening sound of cannons echoed through the sky.

A group of Imperial Army soldiers were blown away, flesh and blood flying everywhere.

"What is going on now?" Xiao Qiyu yelled.

A general who had been wounded by the blast ran back in terror.

"Prince, the Northern Frontier Army has cannons, and not just one; they are even more powerful than our Red Barbarian Cannons!"

"What?" Xiao Qiyu was stunned, "Where did Xiao Moting get cannons from again?"

His heart was nearly bursting; it could no longer be described in words.

On the battlefield ahead, earth-shattering roars erupted.

People were screaming.

"The Northern Frontier Army is attacking!"

Yang Tianhu gritted his teeth, his face turning extremely ugly.

"It seems Xiao Moting had a trick up his sleeve. In this battle, I'm afraid we'll have to stake everything! Success or death!"

After saying this, he shouted sharply.

"Donghai Prefecture troops, take orders: the whole army, charge! Fight to the death."

Originally, Yang Tianhu still had selfish motives and did not intend to send all his forces into the field.

But now it seemed that was no longer possible.

Compared to the young Xiao Qiyu, Yang Tianhu had much richer combat experience; he knew at a glance that if he didn't commit all his military strength, they wouldn't win this battle, and he himself would very likely die here.

The remaining Yuan Family Army, plus the Donghai Prefecture, total about two hundred thousand.

And they are all elites, well-equipped.

Even if the Northern Frontier Army has guns and cannons, it is impossible to kill so many people.

"Charge!" Yang Tianhu roared, "Wipe them out."

The dense Imperial Army charged onto the battlefield, like a surging tide.

Qin Zhan held the Binoculars, scanning the battlefield.

"As expected, the Prince was right; they have committed their entire military force, intending to fight to the death."

Xiao Moting's expression was cold and stern, "Xiao Qiyu has endured for many years and will not be content with a single defeat. Although Yang Tianhu is cautious, he and Xiao Qiyu are grasshoppers tied to the same rope; if Xiao Qiyu is defeated, he will also fall into ruin."

"Therefore, Yang Tianhu will definitely take this gamble."

Qin Zhan nodded repeatedly as he listened.

"Prince, you only let over twenty thousand Northern Frontier Army soldiers enter the battle to lure the enemy into a trap, making them think we are easy to deal with."

"They have no idea that we have even more powerful equipment in our hands."

At this moment, a messenger ran over in a hurry.

"Prince, the Imperial Army is pressing in."

Xiao Moting's lips curled slightly, revealing a faint smile of absolute confidence.

"Pass on my order, have General Han prepare to enter the battle."

Under the sky, the armored Imperial Army surged forward in a dense mass.

The troops of both sides rushed onto the battlefield like two waves, rapidly approaching, and then colliding in battle.

The sound of metal clashing soared into the sky.

"The Northern Frontier Army only has this many people, how can they compare to us..." Xiao Qiyu had not finished his sentence when he suddenly saw an army break out on the battlefield.

This army was fully armed, dressed in black from head to toe, with their heads covered and wearing a Helmet.

Yang Tianhu looked closely for a moment, his brows knitting tightly, "Why are most of the soldiers in this army women?"

Many in the Imperial Army also saw it clearly and began to mock and ridicule them.

"Is the Prince of Zhenbei out of men, why send a bunch of broads to the battlefield?"

"The Northern Frontier Army is finished, they're even dragging women out to fight."

"A bunch of broads, can't even wear armor properly, and they still want to fight? Did they deliver themselves to us to be our wives?"

Rat-tat-tat!

Before the mocking words were finished, the sound of gunfire rang out like raindrops.

Han Guiying led a group of female soldiers, picked up their Firearm, and fired at the front.

The Imperial Army soldiers who were just mocking them fell to the ground one after another.

"Keep talking, let's see you be smug now!" Han Guiying shouted, her voice crisp, "Looking down on us, this is the price."

Behind her followed a large group of warriors, both male and female soldiers.

The Imperial Army finally came to their senses, shouting for a retreat and ordering the Firearm Squad to fire.

The Firearm Squad hurriedly returned fire, aiming at Han Guiying.

However, Han Guiying was completely fearless.

The Musket Bullet hit her, but it could not penetrate the thick black Cotton Clothes on Han Guiying's body.

"What kind of clothes are those?" The Firearm Squad was stunned.

Han Guiying laughed out loud, "This is the military-grade Bulletproof Vest of the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, custom-made... hiss..."

Before she could finish speaking, she was hit by a Musket Bullet and immediately gasped in pain.

The Musket Bullet could not penetrate the Bulletproof Vest, but it still hurt quite a bit when it hit her body; if she hadn't been wearing armor underneath, her ribs would have been shattered by the impact.

Han Guiying waved her hand, pointing at the Imperial Army's Firearm Squad.

"Fire."

Following her command, a dense volley of Bullet flew over, and the enemy fell in a heap of corpses, clearing the field instantly.

In the distance, Xiao Qiyu, who was overseeing the battle, was dumbfounded.

His prized Firearm Squad was gone in the blink of an eye?

Every soldier in the Firearm Squad was wearing an Iron Helmet.

What kind of gun did the other side have?

It could actually penetrate an Iron Helmet!

Yang Tianhu was also stunned.

"These broads, what kind of Firearm are they holding? The power is actually this great!"
