Chen Jia was extremely furious.

"Damn it, this is impossible! How could the lost Mo Blade appear at this time?”

The deputy commander was also very helpless. He looked at the enemies in the carriage formation in the distance and wanted to cry.

"The enemy infantrymen have all retreated back into the carriage formation. This is even harder to deal with!”

Commander Chen Jia looked at his troops gloomily.

"Soldiers, report to General Li Chengdong. The enemy has built a circular chariot formation. Cavalry is not good enough, so we need to send infantry!”

The messenger rode his horse and carried the signal flag to Li Chengdong's side.

"General, the cavalry has failed to attack the enemy infantry!”

"Infantry vehicle formation? What was going on? Aren't there only a thousand infantrymen?"

"The enemy has 500 carriages and thousands of peasants. They used the carriages to form a circular formation! The infantrymen just walked out of the carriage formation and faced our army head-on!”

"What was the result?"

"Only a hundred or so of Wang Xi's thousand men managed to escape!”

Li Chengdong's face darkened.

"Cavalry fighting infantry, they actually suffered such heavy losses!”

The soldier pointed at the battlefield in the distance helplessly.

"After the enemy infantry defeated our thousand-man army, they retreated into the chariot formation. Our cavalry could not attack!”

Li Chengdong sighed.

"What's so powerful about the enemy's chariot formation?”

"A carriage with eight wheels! There were ten farmers in each carriage. They did not have any armor, but each farmer had a long-handled podao.”

"I've never seen a carriage with eight wheels. If I order the troops to speed up, the defense will always be passive. If we surround them, how will they survive?”

Li Chengdong led a large army of 50,000 people and arrived outside Dinghu County.

He held a telescope and looked at the cars in the distance.

"Perfect! This formation was perfect. Canming actually had such a powerful general. It was really strange!”

"Father, what should we do now?”

"Surround them. How far away are our Red Cannons from us?”

"Because the Red Cannon is cumbersome, Commander Wang Xiao is currently transporting it with 4,000 people! We'll probably arrive in another eight hours!"

"Urge Commander Wang Xiao to speed up. Once the Red Cannon arrives, their formation will definitely become a decoration!”

Commander Chen Jia led the cavalry to join forces with Li Cheng Dong.

"General, you're finally here! The enemy infantry was completely different from the ones they had encountered before!”

Li Chengdong didn't take this too seriously. Ever since he surrendered to Slave Jian, he had been invincible all the way to the south.

"What's the difference? They're all born by their parents. Could it be that they're really heavenly soldiers?”

Chen Jia lowered his head and sighed.

"General, we have lost more than nine hundred cavalrymen. I'm afraid that we have killed less than ten enemies!”

Pa ~

Li Chengdong slapped Chen Jia's face.

"Are you blind? How could the enemy lose less than ten people? Could the corpses and flesh on the ground be fake?”

"It's all the corpses and blood of our nine hundred warriors and horses!”

Hearing Chen Jia's explanation, Li Chengdong was stunned.

"All the generals of the thousand households and above, immediately come to my commander's tent for a meeting!”

The thousand-men and commanders were all in their tents, looking at each other and discussing.

"Everyone, we have encountered a troublesome enemy. What countermeasures do you have?”

Li Chengdong's foster son, Li Xiaoshan, stood up.

"Godfather, just wait! Once the Red Cannon arrived, they could only wait to be blasted!”

"Commander Li is right. There is no need to attack them! There was no need to waste troops to attack if they could be dealt with by the Red Cannons!”,Commander Chen Jia echoed.

Li Chengdong nodded.

"Everyone, go immediately and command the soldiers to build a camp. Outside the camp, build as many observation arrow sentries as possible!”

Chen Jia and Li Xiao Shan both felt the change in Li Cheng Dong.

Li Chengdong, who had never been so cautious before, suddenly became cautious.

Facing such a cautious Li Chengdong, the commanders of the Green Army and the commanders of the thousand households became nervous.

"General, a large number of rich and powerful landowners are here with food!”

Li Chengdong smiled happily. Wherever he went, the rich and evil would be the first to surrender.

"Damn it, I'm going to make a fortune again! Along the way, we haven't seen any civilians surrender to us!”

Li Xiao Shan rolled his eyes.

"When the commoners came, they didn't give you any gold, silver, or jewelry. Didn't you order the soldiers to cut them three times?”

Li Chengdong sneered.

"Father has a rule. After breaking through the city, all the commoners will be slashed three times.”

Li Chengdong had been doing this all the way to the south, even after breaking through the city.

In many cities, except for those that surrendered without resistance, the rest of the cities were looted by Li Chengdong's Green Camp soldiers.

The people gave Li Chengdong a nickname,'Cut Three Knives'.

Li Chengdong sized up the landowners and tycoons who came to the military camp to reward the army.

"Li Xiao Shan, you go and ask them to hand over the gold, silver, and jewelry. After they hand them over, give them away and chop them three times. Whether they survive or not depends on their luck!”

"Father, this isn't good, right?”

Li Chengdong was very calm.

"There's nothing bad about it, including Ding Kuichu. This guy gave us five chests of gold, silver, and jewelry, hoping that we'll let him go after we conquer Zhaoqing!”

"Father, should we let him go?”

"Release? We can't let go of anyone who rewards us with gold, silver, and jewelry. Not only do we want all their jewelry, but we also want their lives!”,Li Chengdong's eyes were filled with killing intent, making him look exceptionally terrifying.

Sitting in the commander's tent, the calm Li Chengdong waved at Commander Chen Jia.

"Chen Jia, go quickly. Take your cavalry and sweep through the surrounding villages, snatching all the food! Our army's food can last for another five days. I'm worried that it won't be enough!”

Chen Jia nodded and walked out of the commander's tent. Looking into the distance, he was stunned.

"General, cavalry! Cavalry!"

Li Chengdong heard the noise outside the camp and walked out of the commander's tent.

"What are you arguing about?"

"Cavalry!"

Li Chengdong picked up his binoculars and looked into the distance. His entire body trembled.

"Not good, Red Cannon is finished!"
