Chapter 25: The Great War Begins

"Report to the commander, there are a large number of enemy troops thirty miles ahead!" said a soldier who jumped off his horse and fell on one knee.

"Oh, how many people are there?" said He Song.

"About 70,000 men, including nearly 50,000 cavalry!" said the soldier.

"What? Nearly 50,000 cavalry? How could it be? How could they have so many cavalry? What else did they find?" He Song's face changed and he continued to ask.

"More than 20,000 of them are wearing the armor of the Viper Legion, and the rest are the armor of the Imperial City Guards!" the soldier thought for a moment and said hurriedly.

"The soldier of the Blue Dragon Army who is wearing the armor of the Viper Legion must be the soldier of the Blue Dragon Army who has bypassed the Snake King City, and it is also what we must eliminate this time, and we must not let a person go!" Yun Xuchao said in a deep voice.

"Please rest assured, Lord Yun, although there are 70,000 of them, they are all a group of rabble! More than 40,000 people are the city guards of the five cities, and his combat strength is average, and he is still put together temporarily, and his combat strength can be imagined. The 20,000 men of the Blue Dragon Legion were originally a bit troublesome, but with those city guards dragging them down, I am afraid that they will not be able to exert even half of their combat effectiveness at that time! It seems that their commander is not very good, originally it seems that he can take five cities in five days, he is a talent, but looking at his current actions, I am afraid it is just luck to win those five cities!" He Song analyzed.

"That's very good!Commander He, I will definitely give you the first credit for recapturing the five cities this time!" Yun Xuchao nodded.

"He Song has thanked my lord!" He Song was overjoyed and hurriedly said.

"It's just that, Lord Yun, there is one more thing we have to be careful, there must be masters in their legion, otherwise even if it is a sneak attack, it is impossible to take the five cities of Yonghe so quickly, and my He family also sent a Nine-Turn Martial Emperor and two eight-turn Martial Emperors to help the Lu family in Yonghe City recapture Yonghe City, but a few days ago, all their soul cards were broken!" He Song said with a somewhat heavy face.

"Well, I've heard this, there is indeed a master among them, but it is absolutely impossible to be Emperor Wu, in the Congyun Empire, they don't dare to take the initiative to break the rules. This person should be the Ninth Rank Martial Emperor, and he is still not a weak existence among the Ninth Rank Martial Emperor, but you don't have to worry, if he really appears, someone will deal with him, as long as you can command the battle below!" Yun Xu nodded and said.

"Yes!" He Song said respectfully

"Big brother, where are the soldiers and horses in Taniguchi City?" Zhou Yunfeng asked Zhou Yunlong, who was following him.

The scouts sent out were all members of the Blue Dragon Legion, and these scouts were all in charge of Zhou Yunlong, and Zhou Yunfeng was not directly managed.

"There are still about thirty miles to go, and their marching speed is about the same as ours, and in half an hour, we should be able to meet!" Zhou Yunlong said.

"The gravel slope is only about ten miles away from us, we are walking a little faster, so let them take advantage of it and get closer to Yonghe City!" Zhou Yunfeng smiled.

"If we get closer to take advantage, what's the harm if we suffer a loss?" Long Hao said with a smile.

"Pass my order, the whole army slows down!" Zhou Yunfeng ordered.

Now there are only the Qinglong Army and the City Guards who are following Zhou Yunfeng, as for the five battalions of his Fengyun Mercenary Regiment, after leaving Yonghe City, they have separated from the army, and at their speed, they have already arrived at the designated place to ambush them.

Time passed slowly, and the two armies began to slowly approach.

Twenty-five miles

Twenty miles

Ten miles

Five miles

Although Zhou Yunfeng had already ordered to slow down the march, they still reached the gravel slope before He Song, and after reaching the gravel slope, Zhou Yunfeng did not move forward again, but ordered to stop.

At this time, the army of Taniguchi Castle was only two or three miles away from the gravel slope, and it was there in an instant.

"They stopped at the gravel slope, it seems that they want to fight at the bottom of the gravel slope, it seems that their commander still has some brains!"

"What kind of place is the gravel slope, and why do they choose to fight there?" Yun Xuchao asked.

"Master Yun, do you know, although the gravel slope has become a slope, there is an open land under this slope, not to mention that there are only 130,000 people on both sides of us, even if it is twice as much, it is completely accommodated there. It was also an open field, which was very conducive to cavalry charges, and that was one of the reasons why they chose to be there!" replied Hosson.

"So, isn't that bad for our army?" Yun Xuchao frowned.

"It's okay! Although their cavalry is twice as large as ours, they are all together, and they can't exert their due strength at all, and I believe that as long as they engage, the enemy will be defeated in one blow!" He Song said confidently.

After listening to He Song's words, Yun Xuchao was relieved, and his frowning brows also relaxed.

At this time, Zhou Yunfeng, who had reached the gravel slope, had already set up a formation, with an army of 70,000, with infantry in the middle and cavalry on both sides.

"Zhilu Dao, where is this? This regiment commander will tell you now, this is the gravel slope, and soon there will be a big battle here, and you are only the protagonist of this big war, and similarly, this is also a place to prove you, a place to prove that you are still a bloody soldier, tell this regiment commander, are you afraid?" Zhou Yunfeng took out the Sky Devouring Spear and shouted.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

At this time, these soldiers, who had already been provoked by Zhou Yunfeng's anger and killing intent, were no longer a group of people, but a group of wolves who were like being stimulated by blood.

There is nothing more important in the heart than proving yourself, and there is no emotion that can compare to the killing intent in the heart!

"Very good! You have let the regiment commander see the bloodiness and bloodlust that a soldier should have, and today the regiment commander will give you this opportunity!" Zhou Yunfeng shouted.

"Let's go!"

After Zhou Yunfeng gave the order, the stopped army advanced again, but at a very slow pace.

Because of the size of the open field, both sides are already in it, and now both sides are moving closer to the center, but both sides are slow.

The 60,000 troops of Taniguchi City, with the cavalry in front and the infantry behind, approached Zhou Yunfeng's 70,000 troops.

"Boom!"

When there was still a distance of two miles between the two sides, Zhou Yunfeng suddenly raised the Sky Devouring Spear in his hand, and a wind and thunder shot into the sky, exploding in the sky.

While both sides were still unaware of the situation, the sound of cavalry charging horses was heard on both sides of the open field, but their target was the army of Taniguchi Castle.

"Report to the commander, cavalry has appeared on the right flank of our army, and the number is about two thousand!"

He Song's face changed, and before he could give an order, a soldier on horseback rushed over.

"Report to the commander, cavalry appeared on the left flank of our army, and the speed was extremely fast, and the number was about two thousand!"

"It's really sneaky, and now it's starting to be clever! Do you think these thousands of cavalry can really change anything?" He Song said coldly.

"Pass my order, transfer 5,000 cavalry to the left and right flanks, and destroy these two cavalry for me at once!" He Song said.

"Yes!" the two soldiers turned their horses' heads and charged toward the wings.

"The army stops advancing!" He Song ordered.

"Since you have chosen a cemetery for yourself, then this commander will follow your wishes!" He Song sneered in his heart.

Soon, the two flanks of Taniguchi Castle Army rushed out of 5,000 cavalry and went straight to the incoming cavalry.

If it was an ordinary two thousand cavalry, they could really be eaten by the five thousand cavalry sent by He Song, but these cavalry were not ordinary cavalry, because they were the five battalions of the Fengyun mercenary group that disappeared out of the city, and the wolf cavalry battalion that set off in advance.

The Fengyun mercenary group was divided into two teams, ambushed on both sides, and as soon as they received the signal that Zhou Yunfeng had entered, they immediately killed them.

The right side was led by Zhou Yunhu, and the left side was led by Jun Tian, the two of them were the strongest people in the Fengyun mercenary group except for Zhou Yunfeng and Xiao Yan, with them leading, the two cavalry went straight to the army of Gukou City like two hundred sharp knives.

The cavalry of the two sides soon met and fought together, but this time was not long, and in less than five minutes, the two cavalry sent by He Song all retreated, and the number of people who fled back was less than five hundred.

"What kind of cavalry are they, how can they be so powerful, even the wildebeest cavalry can't have such combat effectiveness!" He Song said as he began to roar as he lost his previous composure.

This is 10,000 elite light cavalry, and he was beaten back in such a contact, and there are less than 500 people left in 10,000 people, such a result has already made him a little panicked!

"Report to the commander, there are wildebeest cavalry among them, and the wildebeest cavalry is only a part, and there are still among them, and there are" The soldier who came back alive still had palpitations after thinking of the scene just now, as if he did not want to mention it.

"What else? Say it quickly, or you will be beheaded immediately!" He Song roared angrily.

"Also, they have wolf cavalry, and hundreds of them are not horses, but huge demon wolves, and we can't resist them at all!" said the soldier.

"What?wolf cavalry?how could there be wolf cavalry?impossible!" He Song said in disbelief.

"Commander He, now is not the time to investigate how there can be wolf cavalry, now should find a way to destroy those two cavalry, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable!" Seeing that He Song was a little out of control, Yun Xu frowned, and he was very disappointed in his heart, but at the moment of the big war, he couldn't do anything to He Song, and then shouted.

"Yes! It's me who lost my temper!" was shouted by Yun Xuchao, He Song's heart was shocked, he came back to his senses, and hurriedly said
