Berserk God of War-Chapter 115 The Charging of Ten Thousand Horses
Chapter 115: Chapter 115 The Charging of Ten Thousand Horses
"According to some rather unreliable information, inside is the Jin Sect Commander of Shang Country’s Five Great Families, the Sui Family’s Princely Heir, Sui Yu."
"However, this man is a womanizer, and when he followed the Invincible God General of Shang Country, he had no military achievements, but was often punished instead."
"If not for his status, he would have probably been executed by the Invincible God General long ago."
The Female Guard’s expression turned serious, and she reported the situation of Sui Yu to Princess Die Lian.
"The Invincible God General of Shang Country..."
Upon hearing these words, a strange light flashed in the eyes of Princess Die Lian.
"I have studied the methods and military strategy of the Invincible God General for a whole two years."
"The Jin Sect Commander in Tianlong Villa this time indeed has some of his tactics, but they are still quite immature."
As she said this, she murmured to herself.
"Just frequently being punished and he’s learned to use such setups, Invincible God General of Shang Country, I really do want to meet him."
Princess Die Lian’s eyes held longing, excitement, and also a hint of deep wariness.
"Perhaps we will soon have the chance to confront him on the battlefield."
From the current situation, Princess Die Lian smelled a hint of conspiracy, making her more vigilant and expectant.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man in golden armor appeared, reporting, "Your Highness, there’s infighting amongst the troops of Yunzhou Battle Mansion outside the city, should we send out our forces and catch them all at once, to boost our Xia Wei?"
Princess Die Lian was startled at first, but then she coldly scoffed.
"They want to lure us out of the city with infighting, to give the people of Jin Sect a chance to survive, there seem to be some decent people among the rubbish of Shang Country Yunzhou, but do they really think I would fall for such a trick?"
Upon hearing this, the Golden-armored Middle-aged man was surprised, then his face changed drastically, as he suddenly realized.
This was actually a crafty scheme.
"There’s no need to bother with it, let them make as much noise as they want outside the city. The troops of Yunzhou Battle Mansion are not worth my attention." Princess Die Lian said indifferently, waving her hand, and added, "After dealing with the people from Jin Sect, it won’t be too late to kill them all."
The Golden-armored Middle-aged man took the command and vanished.
...
Outside of Yanyun City, the encampment with two hundred thousand troops had been thrown into chaos by Sikong Jing’s men, with cries of agony filling the air.
But Sikong Jing suddenly halted his horse, looked in the direction of Yanyun City with a hint of gravity, and said in a low voice, "It seems that the Xia Country Commander inside Yanyun City is extraordinary; he’s seen through my intentions."
Indeed, as Princess Die Lian had said, when Sikong Jing heard that Sui Yu was in danger, he decided to destroy the encampment to stir up infighting and to draw out the Xia Country defenders from Yanyun City.
Unfortunately, his plan was seen through, and there had not been any movement yet.
At that moment, the ghastly cries of Mo Yang rang out.
"Little Sikong, if you dare touch a single hair of mine, you’re dead," he screamed.
"Unless you kill all two hundred thousand troops right now, you’ll never be able to wash away your sins."
Turns out, Mo Yang was already surrounded by Sikong Jing’s one hundred thousand troops, his face red with rage as he roared incessantly.
He kept issuing threats, fearing that Sikong Jing might actually kill him.
"Brother Sikong, to kill or not to kill?"
Ah Hu’s voice trembled a bit; even if they slapped the label of ’rebel army’ on Mo Yang, it would still be difficult.
When the Commander from Yunzhou Battle Mansion arrived, there would certainly be questions of accountability, and with the crime of exile already on Sikong Jing’s back, he would be at a definite disadvantage, facing a sure death.
Even Ah Hu and Old Zhang were questioning whether Sikong Jing was being too impulsive.
Sikong Jing cast a cold glance at Mo Yang, then shouted commandingly, "All men, follow me and attack the city."
"What, what?"
The crowd was taken aback, unable to understand why they were suddenly attacking the city.
With Sui Yu in dire straits within Tianlong Villa, ready to die at any moment, since one plan had failed, it was time for another. If they could take down the gates of Yanyun City, they couldn’t believe the other side wouldn’t respond.
Sikong Jing aimed to break into the city while the defenders were relaxed and entertained by the spectacle.
Although the others were confused, they still obeyed Sikong Jing’s command and discarded Deputy Commander Mo like trash, following Sikong Jing towards the gates of Yanyun City with a frenzy.
Watching the sudden surge of Sikong Jing’s one hundred thousand troops, Mo Yang and the rest were stunned.
Someone inquired, "Deputy Commander Mo, why did they suddenly retreat? Have they gone mad?"
Mo Yang’s mouth twitched incessantly as he gently touched his head still on his neck and said irritably, "How would I know?"
Irritable as he might have been, being alive felt good; he had thought he was truly about to die just moments ago.
"Quick, look! They’re heading for the city gates, it seems like they intend to attack the city?"
A cavalryman shouted loudly, leaving everyone present dumbfounded. What a joke, one hundred thousand troops attacking the city?
That was simply impossible!
Meanwhile, atop the Yanyun City Wall.
The golden-armored middle-aged man who had been reporting to Princess Die Lian returned and was relaying her orders to the others.
But suddenly, his gaze solidified.
"What are they trying to do?" Staring at the one hundred thousand troops below, the golden-armored middle-aged man was dumbstruck.
A second golden-armored middle-aged man muttered, "It seems they are coming at us? To attack the city?"
All the Xia Country people defending the wall looked at each other in disbelief, finding the idea ludicrous. Now, with the city under their control, even if another ten times the number of troops approached, they wouldn’t stand a chance of breaching it unless a super powerful being appeared.
But obviously, among those one hundred thousand troops, not a single one was of the Earth Realm, so how could they possibly attack?
The only thought in the minds of the golden-armored generals was... like moths to a flame.
Below the city, Sikong Jing led the charge, his eyes filled with bloodshot veins.
His mind flashed through myriad thoughts. Now, to take the city in the same way they had taken Qingyun City was absolutely impossible.
With his current strength, even if he possessed the Beast Skill Flowing Cloud, ascending the city alone would be a dead end. Those golden-armored generals were either of Heaven Realm or Earth Realm, and those two golden-armored middle-aged men were even Transcendent Strong People who had surpassed the Heaven Realm.
No matter how few the Xia Country People within Yanyun City, as long as there were over a hundred Heaven Realm experts, he could not breach the city.
However, since Sikong Jing dared to attack, he naturally had a plan in mind.
He could be heard muttering softly, "Blood of Ten Thousand Beasts, Emperor Beheading Technique, now let me see your true power."
Clenching his fists tightly, Sikong Jing opened his mouth wide and let out a thunderous roar!
"Roar!"
Like the roar of a fierce beast, it burst forth from Sikong Jing’s mouth.
Following that, the one hundred thousand warhorses beneath them suddenly cried out in grief, responding to Sikong Jing with emotions of fear.
"It seems my guess was correct, any demon beast lower than my realm will be intimidated by me, the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts," Sikong Jing said to himself, and then shouted to the people around him, "All units, heed my command, dismount!"
Upon receiving the order, although they didn’t understand, everyone dismounted anyway.
"Roar!"
Another roar of a fierce beast erupted from Sikong Jing’s mouth, causing the cries of the one hundred thousand warhorses to intensify.
It was as if they had received some order, charging towards the city gates at the greatest speed.
"Boom..."
The first horse struck the city gates fiercely, killing itself upon impact.
But the second and third horses, fearless of death, continued to charge, followed by countless warhorses slamming into the gates. One fell only to be replaced by another, and in the blink of an eye, the ground in front of the gates was littered with horse carcasses.
Under the insane pounding of the horses’ strength, the hefty gates began to give way, and yet the warhorses kept charging, kept slamming into them.
Boom boom boom...
As if ten thousand horses were thundering, rampaging like mad, the very earth trembled.
