Clang!
The sound of metal clashing rang out on the battlefield. It was so clear and sharp. Xiang Yan's expression was gloomy as he blocked Zhao Mu's Tianwen Sword with his long spear. From the corner of his eye, he had already seen Zhao Mu's sword kill his trusted soldier.
What kind of sword technique was this? It was so powerful that it was a little scary.
Boom!
Both of their zhenqi burst out at the same time. Battlefield generals also had to practice martial arts, especially Xiang Yan, who had accumulated for decades. Her internal energy cultivation could not be underestimated. The warhorse under Xiang Yan could not withstand the enormous pressure of the two fighting.
With a wail, the bones in his entire body collapsed inch by inch. He actually broke directly and collapsed to the ground without a trace of life.
This warhorse had followed Xiang Yan for many years. Originally, after this battle, Xiang Yan had planned to let it slowly die of old age in his manor. However, he had never expected that it would eventually die on the battlefield.
Bang!
As soon as the warhorse died, Xiang Yan fell down. He steadied his body, but his legs were more than a foot deep in the ground. One could see how much pressure Zhao Mu had given him.
Whoosh!
The sword radiance burst forth like a resplendent flower, blooming in an instant. Countless sword radiances were brighter than the surrounding flames. Xiang Yan was like a forest of swords. She shouted in a low voice and brandished her halberd, giving off a fierce aura.
Like a peerless overlord, a domineering aura was undoubtedly revealed. Ding ding dang dang sounds continuously sounded.
Zhao Mu struck out 15 times in a row, but Xiang Yan blocked all of them.
A famous general was also an expert.
This was an era where the martial world and the imperial court were connected. Everyone was not weak.
"Your kung fu is not bad, it's worth me using the fourteenth sword. I hope you can hold on.”Zhao Mu had a hint of admiration, but his gaze made Xiang Yan very uncomfortable. That kind of 'you're not bad for being able to hold on until now' gaze made Xiang Yan feel resentful of being looked down upon.
" The fourteenth sword of the Thirteen Seizing Swords!"
If the first 13 sword strikes were a flower bud that was taking shape, then the 14th sword strike was the flower bud that had finally succeeded in condensing. It bloomed and transformed into a beautiful flower.
The sword light was like a flower petal, drifting between heaven and earth. The sword qi was everywhere, filled with killing intent.
No matter where you ran, you would not be able to dodge this sword.
Sweat appeared on Xiang Yan's forehead. This was the first time he had seen such a brilliant sword move. He was stunned for a moment and did not know how to block it. In the end, although his martial arts were good, it was really not comparable to the people of Jianghu.
Slash!
Blood splattered everywhere, pulling Xiang Yan back to her senses. He was actually distracted by this sword!
He looked at Zhao Mu in shock. Blood and flesh fell like rain. It was a Chu soldier who had used his life to block the sword for him. From this, one could see Xiang Yan's status among the Chu soldiers.
"Great General, leave quickly!"
"The Soaring Dragon Legion will fight bravely and not retreat!”The Chu army pulled Xiang Yan and formed a human wall, blocking Zhao Mu's path. After all, the Chu army had many people. After the initial chaos, the remaining soldiers gradually took shape.
This was not something that Zhao Mu could withstand, unless he had more than 3,000 Dragon and Tiger Cavalrymen under his command. With a ratio of 10 to 1, he was already considered a famous general in the world for being able to do this.
"You're courting death."
Zhao Mu looked at the Chu soldiers in front of him. He admired their courage to face death, but he was not happy because Xiang Yan had escaped. Xiang Yan was a stumbling block to Great Qin's unification of the world, and if he could kill him today, it would be the greatest victory for him!
But now it seemed that he couldn't do it. First, he had fewer soldiers. Second, although his martial arts were better than Xiang Yan's, it wasn't an overwhelming advantage.
Under the protection of the soldiers of the Soaring Dragon Legion, Xiang Yan fled in a sorry state. He turned around and saw Zhao Mu slaughtering the Chu soldiers wantonly. Zhao Mu's footsteps were so leisurely, as if he was taking a stroll in the enemy's formation. With a single sword, he easily killed the Chu soldiers one by one.
Xiang Yan clenched her fists.
" Let this brat become famous today!!"
His low voice showed his anger.
With insufficient troops, Xiang Yan had finally escaped. Although Zhao Mu was a little dissatisfied, that was all. The goal of this battle had been achieved. After the destruction of the Zhou and Chu armies, the allied forces would probably retreat back to their countries after receiving the news.
After all, they didn't want to die.
More importantly, just like what Xiang Yan had said, Zhao Mu's name would spread throughout the world after today's battle!
"Great General, in this battle, we killed a total of 10,000 soldiers of the Chu and Zhou armies and captured around 15,000 soldiers.”Meng Ao came to Zhao Mu's side. This battlefield general was covered in blood, but he looked excited.
3,000 against 35,000 soldiers of the Zhou and Chu allied forces. This kind of battle achievement was enough to go down in history.
"How are our casualties?"
Zhao Mu asked as he put away the shiny Tianwen sword. As expected of a famous sword, it did not even have a drop of blood on it.
"We have lost a thousand brothers, most of them during the attack on the Chu army.”Meng Ao said.
"Clean up the remains of these brothers and bring them home. I will personally supervise the compensation for their families.”Zhao Mu's voice was ice-cold. He knew some bad habits in the army.
"Great General, don't worry. I will personally keep an eye on them. If anyone dares to reach out, I will kill their entire family!”The result of this battle was shocking, and it would add a heavy mark to his battle achievements. If there were any problems with the compensation later on, it would be a stain.
When it came to this, Meng Ao would not show any mercy.
"Yes, I am. Tell our brothers to arrange for the guards to be on guard. Be careful not to let our camp be stolen by others. After resting for a while and eating, we will immediately break camp and return to Hangu Pass. Also, bring Duke Wen of Zhou to my tent.”
Zhao Mu said.
"Great General, do you mean that someone will come to save him?" Meng Ao was stunned.”
"Heh, that's Duke Wen of Zhou. The Great Zhou Dynasty has ruled for 800 years. There's nothing strange about having some loyal people. However, the news hasn't spread tonight, so it should be fine.”Zhao Mu said.
(Please collect some flowers and comments. I won't ask for any gifts. Thank you.) Regarding the update, I really can't add it for the time being because I still have to go to work. I'm a hard-working dog. In addition, I recommend a book to the seniors. The fantasy world is very good, although there are many things in the book that I, a slacker, can't understand at all ~~~)
