Wang Jian's camp.
"Boom!"
A loud sound rang out. The originally several zhang tall camp was suddenly knocked down by something.
"What happened?" Many Qin soldiers couldn't help but exclaim.
Could it be that the enemy had come with siege weapons?
Wang Jian also placed his gaze there.
A huge bronze machine-operated beast appeared there. It was like a turtle or a snake, and there were several bronze chains on its back.
"The machine-operated beast Black Tortoise?"
Wang Jian recognized the origin of that mechanical beast. It was the Mo family's Black Tortoise mechanical beast.
Back when he was conquering the Yan Country, Wang Jian's army was defeated by the Yishui River. It was precisely because he suffered a huge loss from the Black Tortoise mechanical beast.
Therefore, Wang Jian hated the Black Tortoise mechanical beast.
"Where's the Gongshu family? Why aren't you counterattacking?" Wang Jian loudly berated.
"Please forgive me, General!"
The voice of a Gongshu family disciple came from afar.
A huge machine-operated snake was rushing over.
"Gongshu family?"
Among the Black Tortoise mechanical beasts, Yan Dan also saw the mechanical snake and his heart sank.
Boom!
The two machine-operated beasts quickly engaged in a fierce battle, causing the ground to tremble continuously.
"Where is the Hundred Battle Divine Crossbow? Why aren't you fighting back?" Wang Jian shouted loudly once again.
"Yes!"
On the hill behind the camp, the figures of the Qin army appeared one after another.
This group of Qin soldiers wore tiger masks and were the elites of the Wang Clan-the Hundred Battle Armored Soldiers.
At this moment, Wang Jian did not hide anymore. He decided to use this opportunity to fight a decisive battle with Xiang Yan's army!
Because Wang Jian knew the power of the Hundred Battle Divine Crossbow, he had such great confidence.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Hundreds of crossbow bolts shot into the sky, then split into thousands of small crossbow bolts, raining down on the Chu army.
"What's that?"
Xiang Yan, who was commanding the attack, saw the incoming crossbow bolts and had a bad feeling.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
When the arrows landed in the Chu army camp, violent explosions continued to occur.
"Ahhhh!"
Countless Chu soldiers were blasted into pieces, screaming in pain.
Seeing this scene, Xiang Yan's eyes widened, and her hands could not help but tremble.
"Boom!"
On the other side, the machine-operated snake was also entangling the Black Tortoise machine-operated beast. The two of them kept clashing.
"Kacha!"
A crisp sound rang out from the machine-operated Black Tortoise.
The Black Tortoise mechanical beast was damaged!
Inside the machine-operated beast Black Tortoise, Yan Dan's expression was solemn. How did the Gongshu family's machine-operated beast become so powerful?
The most terrifying thing was, what was going on with those explosive bolts?
If there was no way to crack it, the Chu Country would definitely lose this battle.
"Commander Father! What do we do now?" Beside Xiang Yan, Xiang Chao's face was filled with shock.
"I didn't expect the Qin army to create such a terrifying weapon.”
Xiang Yan took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.
However, there was still worry between his brows.
This time, their Chu Country was really in danger!
"Sound the bell and withdraw!"
Xiang Yan gritted her teeth and immediately gave the order to retreat.
Because he knew that tonight's attack had completely failed.
"Ding! Ding! Ding!"
The sound of metal chimes rang out from the Chu army. Soon, a large number of Chu soldiers began to retreat.
"General, should we pursue?”The deputy general beside Wang Jian asked.
"There's no need to pursue them for now. We'll wait for news from Lord Marquis before making plans.”Wang Jian slowly said. His face was completely calm.
In this battle plan, they had been ordered to become nails and stick firmly behind Xiang Yan to assist Marquis Wuan's army.
After the battle just now, Xiang Yan's plan of wanting to conquer Wang Jian's army first was already completely ruined.
After this, Xiang Yan must consider whether or not to divide up the troops.
Once Xiang Yan dared to split up, Wang Jian would definitely charge over at the first possible moment.
At that time, Xiang Yan's army would not be able to look after each other and would definitely be defeated!
......
Two days later.
"Report!"
An urgent shout resounded through Xiang Yan's camp.
Xiang Yan, who was discussing countermeasures with her generals, suddenly had a bad feeling.
"General! Chen City has fallen!"
As expected, the messenger who rushed over knelt down on one knee, lowered his head, and said in a heavy tone.
"How are our losses?" Xiang Yan asked in a deep voice.”
"That day, the Qin army used a terrifying weapon that would cause a violent explosion when it landed on the ground. Our army was caught off guard and suffered heavy losses!”
"Immediately after, the Qin army came out in full force and easily took down the city wall. Although our army tried their best to resist, it was already too late to turn the situation around. In the end, Chen City fell."
"Where's General Longqie? How is the Soaring Dragon Legion?" Xiang Yan asked again.
The messenger's expression was grave." Before I escaped Chen City, I saw the Soaring Dragon Legion and the Golden Fire Cavalry fighting amongst the rebels. They were being pursued by the Qin army." Very likely "
Hearing this, Xiang Yan fell silent and slowly sat down on the main seat.
"You should go down and have a good rest."
After a long while, Xiang Yan slowly opened her mouth and said,
"Here!"
After the messenger softly acknowledged, he took heavy steps and retreated.
"Father, Chen City has fallen, which means that the first line of defense has been completely breached. Should we retreat?”
At this time, Xiang Chao opened his mouth and asked.
"Where do you think we should retreat to?”Xiang Yan asked.
Before Xiang Chao could answer, a person suddenly walked in hurriedly from outside.
"Commander Father! A large number of Qin soldiers have appeared on the flanks of Shouchun!"
Xiang Yan's other son, Xiang Liang, shouted anxiously as soon as he entered.
"What is it? This is impossible!" Xiang Yan stood up again.
How could the Qin army appear in Shouchun without a trace?
..........
On the other side, the capital of Chu Country, Shouchun.
After decades of development, Longevity Spring City had already become the most prosperous city in the Chu Country.
Even though it was a time of war, the spacious streets were still bustling with people.
"Even at this moment, the nobles of Chu are still drunk. How interesting.”
In a pavilion on the street, Ying Chen looked at the noble carriages that passed by from time to time and couldn't help but sigh.
"This kind of aristocrat who only knows how to enjoy themselves and not produce should be completely eliminated.”
"Master, you don't seem to have the right to say such words, right?”
Yan Lingji, who was standing behind Ying Chen, couldn't help but say.
"The daily life in your residence is even more luxurious than most of the nobles in Chu.”
Who knew that Ying Chen would say with a serious face,"I, Lord Marquis, have fought for the State of Qin for so many years and made great contributions. What's wrong with enjoying life?”
"Moreover, I'm not like those nobles in Chu who treat human lives with no regard, act tyrannically, and bully their fellow countrymen.”
"However, you like to bully weak women like us.”Yan Lingji said bitterly.
Ying Chen:
You call yourself a weak woman? He was even fiercer than a tigress when he was angry.
Ying Chen ridiculed in his heart.
Of course, the current Yan Lingji had already sunk to become Ying Chen's little kitten after countless times of education.
"How is it? They had already infiltrated the city, right?”Ying Chen didn't change the topic in time.
Hearing this, Yan Lingji also revealed a serious expression." Startling Salamander and Violet Woman have already led the assassins to sneak in.”
"But Master, is it really okay for you to enter the tiger's den like this?”
Yan Lingji was a little worried.
She was no longer dissatisfied with her current life.
It was better than living in the open with Tian Ze previously.
If anything happened to Ying Chen, she would have to return to her old life.
"Don't worry, we'll be fine.”
Ying Chen pulled Yan Lingji into his arms and gently stroked her hair.
"Moreover, we are the tigers. Lord Chang Ping is at most a mouse.”
A trace of disdain flashed through Ying Chen's eyes.
