Chapter 246 Total Annihilation, Utter Defeat!
"prick--!"
Accompanied by the cold, authoritative commands from the sergeant behind.
From the gaps in the shield formation, the second-ranked spearman suddenly thrust out his bronze spear!
The long spear resembled a dragon, its cold light flashing!
"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft—!"
Those savages who tried to turn around and fight back, or who rushed into the Qin army's shield formation in a panic, were instantly pierced through the chest by sharp spears, and were sent flying into the air, their blood spraying like rain!
"Stop! Stab again!"
The front row held up shields like a forest, the middle row held up long spears like dragons, and the archers and crossbowmen in the back row reaped the fleeing soldiers.
The Qin army, marching in perfect unison, annihilated all the charging savages!
"Run! Run!"
Seeing the unstoppable black tide behind him, Tian Gan was terrified and scrambled into the woods.
Just then.
"You scoundrel! Where do you think you're going?!"
A furious roar exploded from his side!
Wang Li's eyes were wide open, like a fierce tiger descending from the mountain.
He broke away from the army formation on horseback, galloping wildly and charging straight into the fleeing troops!
"Stop him! Stop him now!"
Tian Gan was terrified and screamed wildly.
Dozens of Yan soldiers gritted their teeth, raised their swords, and charged forward.
"Get out of here!"
Wang Li swept his longsword out horizontally, using the momentum of the charging warhorse to instantly cut several assassins in two!
One glance!
Wang Li's warhorse had already charged up behind Tian Gan!
He suddenly stretched out his long arm, grabbed Tian Gan by the back of his collar, and lifted him directly off the ground!
"Bang!"
Wang Li slammed Tian Gan hard, slamming him to the ground.
He then dismounted and stepped on Tian Gan's chest!
"puff--!"
Tian Gan spat out a mouthful of blood, the excruciating pain from his broken ribs causing him to scream like a pig being slaughtered.
His prized bronze sword was also kicked away by Wang Li.
"Qin dogs! Don't be so smug!!!"
Tian Gan, who was being held firmly in the mud, knew he was doomed!
He simply started screaming hysterically:
"You think you've won just because you've defeated my three thousand men? Dream on!"
"My king of Molu has already secretly allied with the most powerful slave nation on this island!"
Tian Gan's mouth was full of blood, and he grinned maniacally:
"The slave kingdom boasts an army of over ten thousand! And a force of invincible warriors!"
"Your mere two thousand defeated soldiers, even with the help of heavenly lightning, could never possibly withstand the encirclement and annihilation of an army of tens of thousands!!"
"Once the slave army arrives, you will all be buried with me!"
"Ha ha ha ha!!!"
Listening to Tian Gan's nauseating barks.
Wang Li frowned, about to slap his mouth shut.
Just then!
"Report—!!!"
A Qin scout galloped from the side mountains, directly in front of Zhang Fan, and urgently reported:
"Reporting to the Guru!"
"A massive fire has suddenly erupted in the direction of the capital of the Kingdom of Molu!"
"The firelight illuminated half the sky!"
Upon hearing this...
Tian Gan, who had been shouting wildly, suddenly stopped laughing.
He was struck dumb, and suddenly looked up, his mud-covered face filled with disbelief.
"No...impossible!"
Tian Gan shook his head frantically:
"The capital city is heavily guarded; how could it possibly catch fire?"
"You Qin soldier are lying!!"
The scout glanced coldly at Tian Gan and continued reporting to Zhang Fan:
"According to our spies, this has been determined!"
"It's the neighboring slave country!"
"They took advantage of the fact that the entire army of the Molu Kingdom had been mobilized, leaving the capital's defenses weak!"
"They directly launched an attack, stormed the capital of the Molu Kingdom, and massacred the inhabitants!"
The scout paused, a strange tinge in his voice:
"and……"
"According to spies who, with the help of local witnesses, led the army of the Slave Kingdom and personally beheaded the general of the Molu Kingdom..."
"It seems to be a remnant of the Yan state, Ji Dan!"
Upon hearing the name "Jidan"!
Tian Gan froze completely!
He lay limp and lifeless in the mud, his eyes unfocused.
"Master...Master?"
"No...this is impossible...how could Master..."
At this moment, Tian Gan was completely stunned.
He risked his life fighting on the front lines, even bearing the stigma of being a traitor to the king of Malut.
result.
Their own master actually stabbed the Molu Kingdom in the back!
They even treated his three thousand men as expendable pawns to wear down the Qin army!
I've been abandoned!
They were thrown away like trash by the very master they swore to serve!
"idiot!"
Zhang Fan, mounted on his horse, looked down at Tian Gan, whose face was ashen.
His brow furrowed slightly, and a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes:
"Wang Li, gag this stray dog, take him away and keep him under strict guard. I'll need him later!"
"promise!"
Wang Li ripped off Tian Gan's tattered armor, stuffed it into his mouth, and dragged him away.
Zhang Fan looked up at the fireworks rising in the distance.
"Ji Dan... what a brilliant scheme of using someone else to do the dirty work, and driving one tiger to devour another!"
"Send the order down to have the scouts investigate again!"
"I must thoroughly investigate the distribution of this slave nation's troops and their true strength!"
……
The sky was getting dark.
The capital of the Molu Kingdom has now been transformed into a horrific inferno.
Meanwhile, in the capital of the Slave Kingdom, hundreds of miles away from here.
Inside an extremely spacious and luxurious royal palace hall, the lights were on full display.
"Ha ha ha ha!!!"
A loud, boisterous laugh echoed through the hall.
King of the Slave Kingdom—
Yannake!
This man was extremely burly, with his upper body bare and his muscles covered in ferocious tattoos.
Several dried-up heads were hanging from his waist!
Yanna Ke pushed away the trembling maid in her arms and raised the wine bowl made of a skull in her hand.
His gaze burned as he looked intently at Ji Dan, who sat below, and he laughed loudly:
"Mr. Ji Dan! You were right not to lie to me!"
"That Imira is a complete brainless idiot!"
"They actually sent all their elite troops to fight the Qin people!"
Yanna Ke excitedly downed the bowl of bright red liquor in one gulp:
"Master Ji deserves the greatest credit for so easily annexing the Kingdom of Molu and seizing their grain and slaves!"
"I salute you!"
"Your Majesty flatters me. This is all due to Your Majesty's boundless blessings and awe-inspiring power."
Ji Dan calmly picked up the bronze wine vessel in front of him, concealing the disdain in his eyes, and drank it all in one gulp.
Then, Ji Dan put down his wine cup, his expression turned serious, and he said in a deep voice:
"Your Majesty, a battle report has just arrived from the front."
"The three thousand elite soldiers of the Molu Kingdom led by Tian Gan...were completely annihilated and suffered a crushing defeat!"
These words were spoken.
The laughter in the hall stopped abruptly.
Yanna Ke frowned, and the smile on her face faded slightly:
"Three thousand elite troops, plus the advantage of terrain, defeated in half a day?"
"Were those Qin people really that terrifying?"
"Your Majesty, you must not underestimate these Qin soldiers!"
Ji Dan's eyes were cold, and she said through gritted teeth:
"The Qin state swept through the six states of Central China!"
"Their military might is far beyond what those unarmored barbarians of the Molu Kingdom could withstand!"
"Furthermore, according to scouts, the Qin army seems to possess a mysterious weapon!"
