Chapter 347: Defection
Pierre's feeling was extremely uncomfortable, obviously he was leading tens of thousands of troops against the thousand knights of the guild, but he just felt that he was the weaker side. Although the combat strength of the cavalry is higher than that of the infantry, there are tens of thousands of people here! Even if there are the black and gold knights of General Ji Chengyun on the other side, on average, if they fight one by dozen, they can crush them to death even with men and horses! But why? There was a lingering chill in his heart.
As the commander-in-chief, Pierre's heart has already given birth to a trace of timidity, not to mention his soldiers, who have begun to unconsciously lean towards their companions, the weapons in their hands are tightly tightened, and their hearts are constantly emphasizing that "there are many of us, not afraid, not afraid!"
Guo Xing, who carefully observed the Zhongguo army formation, had a strange look in his eyes, the battle had not yet begun, just from the momentum point of view, Pierre's side had already been beaten into slag, in his opinion, this battle did not need to be fought at all, because there was no suspense, Pierre was destined to be defeated, and Guo Xing and the five hundred mages might not be able to make a move and a half at all.
"It's President Sutron on the other side!" shouted Pierre, who finally rode out of his position. He needs to boost his morale now, otherwise, I'm afraid this battle will really be lost, he has such an instinct in his heart!
"It's me Sutron!" I saw Sutron slowly pacing to the front of the army.
Seeing Sutron standing alone in front of the formation, Pierre's pupils tightened suddenly, although he was on a horse, but the courage in his heart was already inferior by three points, Sutron, his presence alone was enough to overwhelm Pierre's entire army. Although Pierre is a famous general in Zhongguo and has a good command of the army, he is still too far behind compared to Sutron's irresistible domineering. One is just an ordinary general, and the other is an out-and-out royal majesty! The huge Zhongguo can find such a domineering majesty, I am afraid that except for Emperor Yuan Chen, there will be no second person, and even the prince of Yuan Ye is a little worse.
There is no need to deliberately release it, and the sense of majesty is already full. Sutron's breath was surging, the killing intent was boiling, and he stood majestically, Pierre seemed to have an illusion, and it was not Sutron standing in front of him, but a great demon king who called for wind and rain, and was bloodthirsty!
"President Su!" Pierre settled down in a trance again, cleared his throat, and shouted, "Now that the Yuan clan has inherited the great unification and has this great country, the aspiring and talented demobilized soldiers have abandoned the guild and joined the Zhong Kingdom, which is really the return of all the people! There are millions of people in the Zhong Kingdom, and there are more generals and wise men with advanced mana who can fight than the stars in the sky, far from being matched by a small guild. The human race, it has to be ruled by His Majesty Yuan Chen, in order to run rampant in the Heavenly Continent and compete with the powerhouses of the Demon Realm, your human guild is outdated, it is better to merge that small guild into the Zhong Kingdom as soon as possible, so as to save some soldiers. ”
"There should be a limit to the nonsense. Su Trun sneered, and shot back, "The theory that the Yuan clan inherited the great unification is really ridiculous, you don't know that the person who usurped Guo Xing's rivers and mountains is that Yuan Chen's rat generation! The Zhongjia Empire is an out-and-out traitorous rebel! You are just relying on your wealth and wealth to coerce and lure the demobilized soldiers who are scattered all over the country, and their hearts are not because they admire Yuan Chen, but because they have a fancy to the immediate interests! The regime established by interests will sooner or later collapse because of interests, and this is an eternal truth!"
"The fact is that Zhong Guoqiang your guild is dozens of times stronger! The time has come to change the dynasty, and it must be you who will perish in the end!" Pierre raised his momentum again.
"Well, how many full meals can you have for your millions?" Sutron sneered.
Pierre, who was said to be in the middle of the sore spot, was still stubborn: "You don't care about this! Anyway, you are going to die today!"
"Not necessarily. Guo Xing stood up with a smile, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and he didn't seem to pay attention to Pierre's tens of thousands of horses at all, "What kind of person is Yuan Chen? And what kind of person is Yuan Ye? Their brothers are all intriguing with each other, and they are even more unclear about their subordinates, how can these millions of paper tigers be the enemy of the warriors of the guild when they are led by such a bunch of waste? Are you qualified to look at the president and Guo Mou? It's really funny to me!"
In this battle, there is no need for Guo Xing to "rain of fire", Pierre is not Ji Chengyun, he is not stubborn, right?
"You are ......" Pierre only then noticed Guo Xing's existence, and at first glance, he was shocked, "Guo ...... Guo Xing...... You're not dead?"
"It's a pity that some people have been disappointed, right?" Guo Xing said with a smile.
"No wonder...... No wonder...... It turned out to be Guo Yewang's brother. With you, it's not surprising that the guild army can set up such a net, and it's normal for me to lose. The burning and pulsating magical aura made Pierre's heart tremble, but Pierre felt relieved that at least the confusion in his heart had been answered.
"General Pierre, since you know Guo, then accept your fate, why bother to serve that faint monarch again? Don't forget, the original owner of this country, but I, Guo someone, although I don't have the name of the emperor, I have also accumulated a lot of people's hearts. Guo Xing persuaded, "You say that all the people are in the heart, but in fact it is the opposite, even the brothers are separated from each other, the lord is suspicious and jealous, coupled with the traitors in the court, I think most of the resources of Zhongguo are in the hands of a few people, right? Not to mention the soldiers, the people of Li everywhere may not be able to eat, and they have even been expropriated and displaced, right? Where have these resources gone, maybe only the prince knows? Even in the city of Terrain, at the foot of the Son of Heaven, hungry people can be seen everywhere, not to mention the poor and remote land. ”
"Guo Xing, don't be a fool!" Pierre became angry, "As a general, just kill the enemy in battle, what you talk about has nothing to do with our victory or defeat!"
"Since ancient times, the hearts of the people are better than the armor, and those who win the hearts of the people win the world, and the rulers who can't even contain the hearts of the people will sooner or later the congregation will rebel and leave their relatives. Guo Xing pouted and sneered, "Although Zhongguo has a lot of soldiers, the forbidden army in the imperial city is all white and fat wine bags and rice barrels, and in actual combat, they are not worthy of a single soldier of the guild, and the soldiers stationed on the border can't even eat enough, where do they have the strength to fight? Zhongguo's talents are indeed like stars, but there are always moons and stars in the sky, even if they are stars, we will shoot them all down, don't do it!"
"That's a lot of nonsense!" Pierre was furious, "I don't care what about the emperor! Anyway, here today, we are swordsmen, you are fish and meat! You want me to surrender to you? No way!"
"You've got a lot of people with you!" said Sutron, who suddenly burst out laughing again, and the laughter made Pierre's heart hesitate.
At this moment, there was a sudden loud noise around the camp, and dust flew up all over the sky, and the soldiers of Zhongguo looked in all directions in fear, only to see that out of nowhere, there seemed to be an endless flow of people pouring out of the surrounding area, and those people were all displaced people who had been driven out of nearby towns!
The nearby generals defending the city, including Pierre himself, because the army was hungry, so in order to ensure that the food in the city was enough to last longer, they drove out some of the hungry people, which also reduced the burden on the town, but they did not expect that the resentment of the hungry people against the Zhongguo soldiers was used by Guo Xing, Guo Xing secretly rebelled against them, and arranged tasks for them, and promised a full meal, and successfully bought the hearts of the people.
"Well done. Sutron looked at Guo Xing with a smile.
Guo Xing gave Su Tren a thumbs up, as if to tell him: See, right? Guo Mou had already left a hand!
Those homeless people all held farm tools in their hands, and they all looked at the soldiers of Zhongguo with an angry face, Zhongguo's military spirit completely collapsed, never expected, they have now become a turtle in the urn that threw themselves into the net, Pierre knew that he had lost, lost to Zhongguo's own decay, lost to Guo Xing, Sutren's use of troops like a god, of course, the most fundamental thing is that he lost to the hearts of the people! This is not only the defection of Li Min, but also their subordinates, who have no military soul! If the army has no soul, it will be invincible!
"What are you afraid of! You are soldiers! They are just ordinary people!" Seeing that the army's heart was shaken, Pierre, who was still unwilling to fail in the end, hurriedly shouted, but he forgot that more than half of his tens of thousands of horses were forcibly recruited from nearby towns, and those soldiers thought at first that as long as they joined the army, they would not have to starve, but they thought wrongly, no matter what they did, they couldn't eat a good meal, so they sold him to Wang Ba's life!
Pierre's words no longer had any effect, some of those homeless people were also some cannon fodder soldiers who had escaped from the camp, and even knew each other with Pierre's soldiers, so after a period of unstoppable chaos, many of Zhongguo's soldiers left their stalls, they lost their weapons, and ran into the ranks of the homeless!
Guo Xing secretly felt funny in his heart, a group of waste scum rats who had no faith and only became soldiers to eat well, fighting against the elite army of these guilds, it would be unreasonable for them to win the battle! The army that mutinied at random had no meaning to continue to exist at all, and it seemed that the only people in the Zhongguo who could be called those who had faith and military soul were those black and gold knights.
"Whoever dares to escape from the battle will be killed by me!Soldiers, you should show your backbone!" Pierre roared anxiously, his own soldiers wanted to stop those defective Zhongguo soldiers, but before they could take a step, a flame ignited out of thin air under their feet, which quickly exploded, and the booming sound exploded sparks everywhere, so frightened that their whole army was shocked, and they did not dare to move an inch!
It was the "Karmic Flame Earth Splitting Technique" launched by five hundred mages together, Pierre's face suddenly turned purple, he didn't dare to act rashly, he didn't expect that there was a rare "magician army" on the other side of the Heavenly Continent, which was not available in Zhongguo. Because the training cost of magicians is too high, it is not easy to cultivate, and they lack melee ability, which is thankless, so they are not popular in the Heavenly Continent, but once the magicians cultivate to a certain level and join the battle array, the terrifying influence brought by them can even play a role in turning the tide! And those mages just played casually, if the position of the karmic blast is changed slightly, then he is already a dead man now! No, they are all turned to ashes!
