Chapter 52: The Daye Army Scout Squad, Completely Annihilated!

~8 min read 1,447 words

On the wilderness ahead.

Xiao Dabao is leading a squad of soldiers, engaging in battle with Daye Army soldiers.

"Kill!"

He is riding on horseback, shouting sternly!

He swings a Mo blade in his hand, hacking fiercely at a Daye Army soldier.

Suddenly!

A cavalryman clad entirely in pitch-black heavy armor charges out from the flank, rushing over violently!

Clang!

A crisp sound of metal clashing!

The Mo blade strikes the cavalryman's heavy armor!

The opponent is not injured in the slightest; only a white mark is left on the heavy armor.

By his ears, the screams of Northern Frontier Army soldiers can be heard from time to time.

The opponent, both man and horse, is covered in thick heavy armor, impervious to blades and spears!

Xiao Dabao is filled with shock and rage!

This is the Great Ye's most elite unit—the Iron Pagoda!

He looks up and scans the area.

Seven or eight Northern Frontier Army soldiers have already fallen to the ground, and the remaining soldiers are mostly wounded, struggling to resist.

Four Iron Pagoda heavy armored cavalrymen are charging into the crowd to slaughter, just like war chariots!

The Northern Frontier Army has no power to fight back.

An Iron Pagoda cavalryman rides over and sneers.

"You Northern Frontier Army soldiers are simply no match for us."

He raises his Long Sword and hacks down at Xiao Dabao!

Xiao Dabao is caught in a pincer attack by two Iron Pagoda soldiers; he has no time to dodge, and his heart instantly turns cold!

It's over!

Today he is going to die here!

Suddenly!

A deafening roar approaches from afar!

Xiao Dabao turns his head back, and after seeing the situation clearly, he is instantly moved to tears.

"Prince!"

Ten motorcycles charge over with the speed of lightning!

Their speed is so fast, it is practically like a flash of lightning!

"What... what is this?" the Iron Pagoda cavalryman is stunned.

Taking advantage of his distraction, Xiao Dabao retreats rapidly, gritting his teeth and sneering.

"Today, I will let you witness our Northern Frontier's Iron Pagoda!"

As he speaks!

Xiao Moting is already riding a motorcycle, roaring as he charges forward!

An Iron Pagoda cavalryman immediately turns his horse's head, raises his Long Sword, and charges directly at him.

Boom!

The immense horsepower of the cargo motorcycle knocks the cavalryman and his horse over to the ground!

The cavalryman's Helmet falls to the side, revealing a terrified face.

"This... the Northern Frontier actually has such powerful iron horses, they can even knock over the Iron Pagoda!"

Xiao Moting, riding on the motorcycle, speaks indifferently.

"The motorcycles bestowed by Shennü Daren are naturally powerful!"

As soon as he finishes speaking, the horse-chopping saber in his hand swings through the air, severing the opponent's head!

Ten motorcycles join the battlefield like divine soldiers descending from heaven, instantly reversing the Northern Frontier Army's defeat!

"The Prince has arrived, we are saved!"

"It is the iron horses bestowed by the Goddess that saved us."

The Northern Frontier Army soldiers trapped in the bitter fight shout excitedly one after another.

Daye Army soldiers immediately pick up their Long Swords and charge forward while yelling.

Xiao Moting sneers, immediately revs the motorcycle, and charges straight at them!

Clang!

Someone hacks a Long Sword onto his Military Industrial Helmet, and the blade is instantly deflected.

The Daye Army soldier holding the sword is stunned.

Taking advantage of his daze, Xiao Moting hacks over with his saber.

Ten motorcycles charge into the enemy formation, crushing them directly!

Not only is their speed fast, but whoever they hit will be either dead or severely injured!

Soon, the ground is covered with Daye Army soldiers.

The Daye Army soldiers are terrified and immediately turn around to flee.

The remaining three Iron Pagoda knights dare not collide head-on and immediately gallop away on horseback!

"Do you think you can run?"

Xiao Moting gave a cold smile, pushed the motorcycle to maximum power, and led his troops in pursuit.

Three Iron Pagoda knights were galloping wildly on their horses.

Caught off guard, the roar of the "iron horses" rang in their ears.

They turned their heads to look and were nearly scared to death!

The iron horses had actually caught up with ease and surrounded them directly in the middle.

This speed was faster than lightning!

Han Guiying raised the axe in her hand and shouted sternly.

"Still want to escape? I want to avenge my father!"

Having said that, she swung her axe down!

In the blink of an eye!

An entire squad of Daye scouts was completely annihilated!

The once invincible Iron Pagoda knights: one dead, three wounded!

The Northern Frontier Army let out a cheer!

"We've defeated the Iron Pagoda!"

Xiao Moting jumped off his horse and walked with a grim face toward the wounded Daye cavalrymen.

This heavy cavalry was indeed immensely powerful!

If not for the motorcycles sent by Bai Wei, he could not have won so easily today.

Han Guiying stepped forward and cupped her hands.

"Reporting to Prince, I have interrogated the Daye scouts."

"They say there are over four thousand Iron Pagoda in the Daye military camp!"

"Moreover, Daye has summoned craftsmen from across the country and is working at full capacity to forge heavy armor for the Iron Pagoda!"

Xiao Moting's heart sank.

The Northern Frontier Army soldiers, who had just been cheering, also turned grave.

Over four thousand Iron Pagoda!

The four Iron Pagoda today were already very difficult to deal with!

If not for the trick of using motorcycles, they could not have won easily!

If all four thousand Iron Pagoda were to take the field on the day of battle, standing together, they would be a literal wall of bronze and iron!

Relying solely on the motorcycles sent by Bai Wei would not be enough to defeat the enemy!

Xiao Moting executed the remaining Daye scouts and returned to the main camp.

"Shennü Daren, could you send me some military manuals?"

"The enemy has four thousand Iron Pagoda heavy cavalry, which are very formidable; I want to find a strategy to defeat them."

He wanted to use this time to find a way to counter the Iron Pagoda.

Bai Wei received Xiao Moting's message and also furrowed her brows tightly.

The power of the Iron Pagoda was truly too great!

The Bulletproof Vests, Helmets, and Mo blades she had sent over were simply not enough to defeat the enemy.

What on earth should she do?

Bai Wei knew that Xiao Moting must be very anxious as well.

He still had injuries from when he seized the Commander's Seal last time; if he worried about the Iron Pagoda, it would not be good for his recovery.

She comforted him.

"Xiao Moting, I will send the military manuals over right now."

"However, don't be anxious; there are still over ten days, and I will think of a way with you."

……

Seeing Bai Wei's message, the worry in Xiao Moting's heart lessened significantly.

A trace of warmth welled up in his heart.

It seemed that when she was by his side, he would feel very much at ease.

His troubled state of mind also eased a great deal.

"Report!"

A soldier knelt on the ground.

"General Zhang Zhao from the Heyuandaying has arrived in Beijiang with ten thousand troops."

Xiao Moting's eyes narrowed.

The troops sent by Yang Wei had arrived.

Xiao Dabao hurriedly said, "Prince, Zhang Zhao is fiercely loyal to Yang Wei; letting him enter the camp will likely lead to the leakage of military intelligence."

Xiao Moting frowned.

Allowing Zhang Zhao to bring troops into the camp would indeed pose a risk of leaking secrets.

But, leaving them outside the camp...

... would be even harder to manage and impossible to control.

Moreover, Zhang Zhao was arrogant and proud; if he were turned away at the gate, he would certainly lead his troops back to Heyuan.

Xiao Moting said in a deep voice.

"Zhang Zhao is an old general of Daliang and once fought against the enemy alongside Old General Han."

"This time, we still need to fight alongside Old General Zhang; we cannot let the other side feel disheartened before the battle has even begun."

"I also believe that Old General Zhang will prioritize the greater good."

The city gates of Fengsha Pass opened.

Xiao Moting personally led his troops out of the city to welcome the ten-thousand-strong army.

He dismounted and cupped his hands in a salute.

"Old General Zhang!"

Zhang Zhao hurriedly returned the salute, "Greetings, Prince of Northern Suppression."

As he lowered his head, a complex look flashed across his expression.
