Chapter 305: Siege at the City Gates

"General Gu, what is this?"

Guan Shan is at this moment also conducting pre‑battle mobilization at the Second Camp.

Seeing Gu Han arrive with a jet‑black mass of demonic beasts, Guan Shan was stunned.

"I was worried the troops would be exhausted from a long‑range raid, so I specifically brought some mounts for them."

Under Little Wolf's suppressing aura, these wolf‑clan demonic beasts still looked down on the Combat Soldiers whose strength wasn't necessarily greater than theirs.

But they still obediently stepped forward, allowing the soldiers of the Second Camp to lead them away.

Seeing these demonic beasts, which could have clashed with humans at first sight, behave so obediently was astonishing.

Guan Shan instantly looked at Gu Han with puzzlement,

"General Gu, how did you manage this?"

Gu Han shrugged his shoulders and said lightly,

"Just let the battle pet intimidate them a bit, and these wolf‑clan demonic beasts will obey."

Seeing Gu Han's understated manner, Guan Shan's mouth

His war pet is also a wolf-clan demon beast that has just entered the five-star rank.

His battle pet is also a wolf‑clan demonic beast that has just crossed into the Five‑Star rank.

The battle pets of the other Bijangs have roughly comparable strength.

They hadn't failed to consider using the battle pet's bloodline to suppress these wild demonic beasts.

But these beasts are too feral to be tamed; they simply won't follow their orders.

Maybe they can stay calm for a few minutes, but as time passes

they will definitely not remain obedient.

Unless their battle pet can stay by these beasts continuously.

But in that case, the purpose of taming is lost!

Yet the soldiers have been leading the beasts away for a long time, and no riot has broken out.

This is simply an incomprehensible event!

This makes Guan Shan feel, from his initial worry to now, as if his perception has been completely refreshed.

If they had possessed this method earlier, wouldn't they be able to directly command these beasts to assault the city?

Then the troops' casualties could be reduced to an extremely low level!

After Gu Han departs, Guan Shan tries to have ordinary soldiers command these demonic beasts that Gu Han has already directed.

He discovers that these beasts, besides being willing to obey their commands and serve as mounts,

refuse any other orders outright!

Although these demon beasts aren't as smart as humans, they are far more afraid of death than humans!

making these beasts into

But demon beasts, at the first sign of danger, their instinct is to run away!

Even war beasts that have grown up alongside the soldiers since childhood might flee in battle, let alone those that were originally wild demon beasts.

Guan Shan sighed, though it was expected.

These beasts may not be as sharp as humans, but they fear death far more than humans!

When faced with wartime crises, the soldiers will charge forward without hesitation

one after another.

But the beasts, whenever danger appears, their first reaction is to flee!

Even battle pets that have grown up alongside the soldiers for years may run away during combat, let alone these originally wild demonic beasts.

The Firehead Army moved quickly.

About an hour later, the Ten Camps launched a full‑scale deployment.

Except for the Third Camp, all personnel have mounts and travel with flair.

The other camps are begrudgingly swapping mounts to make the journey.

Some even summon their own battle pets to serve as mounts.

It is well known that wolf‑clan demonic beasts have decent combat power, but their endurance has always been a weak point.

Having these battle pets serve as mounts basically means

they won't be able to assist

in the forthcoming battles.

A few hours later, night had deepened.

Wang Ye City, though far from the border passes, has seen a prolonged standoff between Dan Ren Cheng and Mu Shan Cheng.

On Wang Ye City's side, they never expected Dan Ren Cheng to be captured.

Consequently, Wang Ye City's City Gate was left open, with many civilians entering and exiting.

When Gu Han led the Third Camp to arrive first near Wang Ye City, he let out a light laugh,

"Brothers, the time to make our mark has arrived!"

Gu Qianyue and Gu Wannian surged to the front, letting out a thunderous shout.

But as long as they capture Wang Ye City today, these people will all become members of Ben Lang Guo!

In their eyes, Wang Ye City is a sure thing!

Therefore, they don't mind at all giving these people of Wang Ye City time to react!

When the guards of Wang Ye City heard the explosive shout and reacted.

Gu Qian Yue, charging at the front, had already swung his huge heavy sword and smashed it down!

A sword light over a zhang long, wrapped in terrifying power, swept across, smashing all seven or eight city gate guards into the city!

Only when the city gate sounded like an earthquake did the Dutong on the city tower jolt awake from his nap.

"Damn, which fellow is tired of living? Actually daring to disturb my rest!"

This Dutong was extremely grumpy upon waking; as soon as he opened his eyes, he shouted at the several city gate guards beside him.

Those several city gate guards were scolded bloody, but could only steel themselves and say:

"Dutong, someone outside the city is attacking the city!"

"What?"

That Dutong simply wondered if he was still asleep or if this brat actually had the nerve to deceive him.

The distance from Wang Ye Cheng to the nearest enemy city is a full thousand li!

Moreover, Dan Ren Cheng lies between Wang Ye Cheng and Mu Shan Cheng.

Are those fellows in Dan Ren Cheng raised eating shit?

How could the people of Mu Shan Cheng cross such a distance to reach the outskirts of Wang Ye Cheng?

"You brat really have the guts of a bear and leopard, daring to deceive..."

The Dutong was about to slap a heavy blow across the city guard's face.

But the ground beneath him shook violently again, nearly causing the Dutong to fall.

Even if he were dull, he now noticed the abnormality.

He hurriedly looked down from the city tower, and even in the darkness he saw countless black-clad figures surging like a tide toward the gate.

The Dutong's face instantly changed, and he cried out.

"Damn, what on earth is the origin of these people? They actually mingled with the crowd entering the city! Truly shameless!"

He immediately roared at the nearby city gate guards.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and close the city gate for me!"

"Want to close the gate? Have you gotten our permission?"

The voices of Zhou Kuan, Guan Shan, and others sounded from not far away.

Several Martial Ancestors with wings formed from internal force shot forth like streaming light from afar.

"Martial Ancestor?! Or three Martial Ancestors?!"

Wang Ye Cheng has seen no war for years; a mere city gate could hardly have a Martial Ancestor stationed there year-round.

Thus the strongest at this gate is none other than him, this Great Martial Master!

If it were a single Martial Ancestor, he could still resist somewhat relying on the Divine-Slaying Crossbow.

But three Martial Ancestors have appeared here.

His mind held only one thought: to slip away!
