Chapter 69: The Battle of Taicheng (8) - Slaughtering God in the Water

With countless magic soaring into the sky, the combination of magic scrolls and arrows standing on the ice wall flew towards the city, and in order to achieve the effect that Kong Ming wanted, that is, to ensure that in the first round of attacks, with the greatest lethality, to eliminate the enemy's living force, Kong Ming also put this new class of troops at the forefront of the formation for the first time, countless arrows flew into the formation of Harvey's fifth army with delayed magic, the sound of explosions sounded everywhere, and the dense formation of the fifth army was cut layer by layer by the monster of the combination of these two arms, even after yesterday's lesson, they still didn't realize that this kind of combination of archers and magicians was realizedAlthough it is just a change in the mode of battle on the distance, however, it has fundamentally shaken the status of the dense formation, because such a formation, under a wide range of magic attacks, appears to be very pale and powerless, many warriors did not use their strength at all, and sacrificed directly on the battlefield, although it was said that the magician itself has this ability, but helplessly their attack distance is really too close, two hundred meters range, a third-level swordsman can easily reach the distance, but, now plus the bow and arrow, a kind of army that is known as the magician killer on the battlefield, extending the distance of magic by a big step, so that the distance between the two armies is no longer a guarantee of safety, from this moment on, the dense formation, gradually withdrew from the stage of war. Yesterday, everyone saw the power of this kind of thing, but it was just a manifestation of the destruction of the city wall, and it was not used in the battle at all, and Kong Ming, as the commander-in-chief, was also disturbed by the matter of that god-level powerhouse, and did not think deeply about such a question, so that this initiator still used a dense formation. Because only a large number of people can block the gap for the enemy to escape, this is his previous cognition, and it is also the consensus of all the people on the entire continent, and now, his point of view has begun to change, because the scene in front of him made him extremely shocked, and the mercenary army unconsciously formed a long, medium and short-range attack mode. Bow and arrow plus magic at long range, magic at medium range, and swordsman at short range, the combination of the three covers almost everything from zero to five hundred meters. And within this range, there are almost few soldiers and officers of Harvey's Fifth Legion who are standing now, of course, those who fall will fall forever, and those who stand are not much combat power, because they are still under the attack of magic.

The sudden attack killed the Harvey soldiers who were covered by the attack, and also shocked and frightened those who were not within the attack. The unknown is always scary. And now for Alexander and Harvey's Fifth Corps, they have two options. Forward and backward. It's impossible to go back. Because they were surrounded by mercenary armies, moving forward was the only option. Drawing out his long sword, Alexander deeply felt the helplessness and grievances of this battle, never before he was at a loss like today's battle, advance is death, retreat is death. Then there is only one battle, although this decision has completely changed the plan of the main attack on the snow wolf in the city that he discussed with Zhang Yiming, but there is no advance or retreat in front of him.

"Order, the whole army moved closer to the city lord's mansion. And immediately let the magician and the archers cooperate, and half of the magician's personnel went to the east gate, and the rest of the directions were equipped with equal amounts. Qi Li's voice spread throughout the battlefield through magic, and the red-eyed and frightened Harvey soldiers, under a kind of military instinct, began to move closer in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion, no longer risking the attack of magic and rushed towards the mercenary army around them. There is not much room for maneuver in Taicheng, Alexander must reorganize this army whose morale has fallen into the trough in this short period of time, otherwise the losses will be even more severe, in this situation, the two sides can only fight, but they can't let Harvey's Fifth Army die like this.

The palace of the Harvey Empire, the emperor looked at this hot scene, and his heart was also full of endless sorrow, he had never mentioned it to anyone, and there were only three people who knew about it. Alexander's mother and Alexander, that is, Alexander, although nominally his nephew, was actually his son, and the most outstanding of many sons, and he might pass the throne to him in the future, and he did some tricks on this qiē, so that Alexander could become a commander of a legion at a young age, and now it was only Alexander's efforts. However, now it seems that this qiē may come to naught, two million six hundred thousand against five hundred thousand, and the other party has also adopted a never-before-seen tactics to firmly grasp the initiative on the battlefield in his hands, which makes Alexander how good, regret that he should not put him into the mouth of the tiger of Kong Ming, thinking of this, he has to be annoyed that the third prince This waste recruited Kong Ming into the snow wolf mercenary army, it is really self-inflicted, and he can't live.

Huayuan Imperial Palace, all the people in the mercenary army after seeing the battle situation, their hearts couldn't help but tremble, you know, they often use this to watch and command the army countless distances away, but every time you watch the battle commanded by Kong Ming, there are always many incredible things, the battle of Wencheng is the countless civilians who emerged from the ground, drowning the Harvey Seventh Legion, and now it is those countless bows and arrows with the use of magic, this is simply the use of the Fifth Legion of the Harvey Empire, where is the war, it is simply a massacre。

"Minister of War, what do you think about this?" the Emperor asked lightly.

"Your Majesty, the appearance of this kind of thing has extended the battle distance forward by three hundred meters, and it is difficult for the minister to describe it for a while, I think it is better for us to watch it. But one thing is clear, that is, its blow to Harvey's Fifth Legion is no less than that of a god-level powerhouse. The Minister of War of the Huayuan Empire said slowly. This is a person in his fifties, but his age is already not young, but because of his cultivation, he has always maintained the appearance of being in his fifties.

"This kind of thing not only extends the distance of the battle by three hundred meters, but also changes the style of combat in the future. "As the prime minister of a country, his vision is obviously much farther.

"Let the military academy study this thing more, otherwise, we will be in trouble when we encounter it. The Emperor said.

Taicheng, Kong Ming looked at the dense Fifth Army of Harvey who began to retreat, and couldn't help sighing in his heart. Once upon a time, the arrogant Fifth Legion would have become like this, and after this round of blows, Kong Ming initially estimated that the Harvey Army had lost at least more than 100,000 people, and it contained many magicians. Now is not the time to sigh, attacking while the enemy is retreating and in confusion is the way to go, and if they are allowed to reorganize their ranks, it will be very difficult to do things in the future.

"Order, all corps, to attack and advance at a normal pace. Don't let them regroup, all we have to do now is beat the Reservoir Dogs. ”

Soon, Kong Ming's order spread to the various corps, and the various corps began to move forward slowly, and their speed was not as fast as Harvey's Fifth Legion. It doesn't need to be as fast as they do, because once it's fast. The formation will be chaotic. Once it's messy, it's very difficult to reorganize it again, and these are the thinking of a standard cold weapon war, and Kong Ming hasn't been able to get rid of this fixed mode of thinking.

The Snow Wolf mercenary army was moving forward, and the moment they reached the city wall, they suddenly rushed from inside the city with a large group of men and horses. There were about more than 10,000 of them, and such an attack caught those mercenaries in front of them by surprise, and many fell under their swords in the first place, these were the blood guards of Harvey's Fifth Legion. Among them, not only the Fifth Legion, but also the Blood Guards of the Sixth and Eighth Legions also joined in. They used the cover of magic to follow behind the Harvey army, and when the snow wolf mercenary army approached the city wall, the remains of the city wall covered the eyes of the archers and magicians, and the magic paused for a short time, and quickly impacted, you must know that in order to make the snow wolf mercenary army really pay the price for this, they are all an attack team composed of all seventh-level powerhouses, and all non-seventh-level powerhouses are eliminated. The world of the strong is sometimes common on the battlefield. The person who rushed to the front was holding a divine sword that was different from the other Harvey soldiers, fiery red and sharp, and the faint eighth-level fighting spirit displayed on his body made the mercenaries in front of him have no one to do, and the others followed on both sides of him, among which there were more than thirty saint-level powerhouses, and this one was Alexander's real killer weapon.

The chaos on this side had already been noticed by the personnel of the Snow Wolf Mercenary Army, and they were desperately stopping them in front, but they were too powerful, well-equipped, strong people above level seven, where was a group of third-level mercenaries in front of them able to resist? But this is not a reason for the mercenary army not to fight, the other mercenaries in the east saw this situation and pointed their arrows at this team, and even many magicians who were close to it also cast magic to cover the ten thousand people, and for a while this became the center of the battle, and after Alexander found out, his mood became excited, so that the Harvey army on this side turned back and joined the battle, it can be said that this step of the Harvey army was unexpected by the snow wolf mercenary army, so that the battle on this side was passive in an instant, at this time, Che Yi understood why Kong Ming said to take his time, because Harvey's focus was originally on the Snow Wolf Mercenary Army.

"Have you found any trace of him?" Kong Ming asked the god-level powerhouse beside him with a sound transmission method.

"Obviously, he is among them, and it is the sword master of the fire system at the front, although he now says that he has suppressed the cultivation, but the ninth-level fluctuations in it have no way to escape the induction of our level, as long as he does it, it is impossible to hide. That voice came, and at this time, Kong Ming had the opportunity to feel the strength of the god-level powerhouse, and there was almost no enemy under his men, and obviously, he also enjoyed the process. Kong Ming is really out of anger, on the battlefield, although the relationship between soldiers is life-and-death, but they also respect each other, a person like this can no longer be said to be a person, even if he is a god-level powerhouse, he will not be respected by Kong Ming, because he has no recognition of human life, some are just himself, such a person or a god-level powerhouse should have died a long time ago.

"Order, Wen Yue, let the Holy Demon Master take action and cast magic in the middle of the enemy's assault team, these seventh-level powerhouses are too damaging to ordinary soldiers, if this continues, it will make our attacks more passive, and let the enemy have an opportunity. Kong Ming said. After a few minutes, the Holy Magisters began to carry out Kong Ming's order, and several eighth-level magic directly exploded in the sky above the Harvey Blood Guard, who had more than 10,000 people, and then several eighth-level magic explosions, causing Harvey's Blood Guard to be seriously injured, but what made Kong Ming speechless. After some blood guards raided over, the rest of the Fifth Legion of Naharvey also rushed towards this side, because the formation of the snow wolf mercenaries had been disrupted by the blood guards, the entire side of the snow wolf mercenary army directly presented the usual melee shape on the battlefield, where the two sides fought, the magic was vertical and horizontal, the fighting spirit was flying, the armor was broken, the long sword was broken, and the soldiers were bleeding. Stained the entire battlefield with blood, all of a sudden the pressure of the Fifth Legion was pressed on the body of the Snow Wolf Mercenary Army, and the blood guard under the leadership of the god-level powerhouse continued to impact the depth of the entire Snow Wolf Mercenary Army, Ronald didn't care if those people could keep up or not, he was now pointing directly at all the places in Kongming. According to his previous practice, he only had to kill the generals. The rest will fall apart. So he didn't care about other people, and for a god-level powerhouse, it was almost impossible for an ordinary third- or fourth-level powerhouse to hurt him. And the thirty or so saints around him are obviously headed by him, or they know the identity of this god-level powerhouse, and the two sides work together. The axis of the snow wolf was quickly not broken by them, and in less than twenty minutes, Ronald had already reached a place ten meters in front of Kong Ming's body. At this time, he suddenly stopped, and put his hands behind his back. looked at Kong Ming with a smile on his face.

"I didn't expect the commander of the 2.6 million mercenary army to be so young, and he was also a rare soldier saint. It's a pity, if you surrender to my Harvey Empire, and I leave you alive, how about it?"

Ronald's words stunned everyone at once, Kong Ming became a sage, for a sage, if he wants to hide his identity, he can only guess at the same level, and it is impossible to truly determine the identity of a sage, but in front of a god-level powerhouse, this layer of veil is difficult to cover the breath on his body. In addition, due to the sanctification of different people, the smell of the body is not the same, the sword master appears sharp, the holy demon master is strong magic fluctuations, the soldier saint appears wise, the book saint appears elegant, etc., each kind of sage has their unique display, and the same sage will also have different characteristics.

"Soldier Saint?"

"Soldier Saint?"

"Soldier Saint?"

"Soldier Saint?"

"Soldier Saint?"

Everyone who saw and heard it was stunned, they knew that Kong Ming was a man who could fight, but they never thought that he was a soldier saint, this kind of person that every empire could not ask for, would actually be the commander of a temporary mercenary army.

"Get out of the way. Kong Ming said to the guards standing in front of him. Then he looked at the god-level powerhouse, this person looked like he was in his forties, if he didn't know the details, he would definitely think that he was just an ordinary sage, Kong Ming shook his head, and continued: "I really want to ask about my treatment, but I think I'm not the kind of person who is used to joking, so I really can't ask......"

Kong Ming was talking slowly here, but it made all the people on the scene nervous, and those sages who protected Kong Ming felt the unfathomable smell of the people in front of them. And the two emperors who watched the live broadcast were nervously listening to some of the answers. Even that god-level powerhouse was looking at Kong Ming, if such a soldier saint was left in the Harvey Empire, would he still be worried about the war in the future?

At this time, a phenomenon that stunned everyone appeared, only to see Kong Ming disappear out of thin air, and Ronald immediately rushed to the place where Kong Ming was after seeing it, and then he also disappeared, and then, a guard behind Kong Ming also disappeared, and then only saw that Kong Ming's original place exploded, and the one-way teleportation array set up here disappeared directly.

This scene stunned everyone, except for a few high-ranking personnel of the Snow Wolf Mercenary Army who knew the details. But this did not prevent the Snow Wolf Mercenary Army from fighting, because everyone knew that whether the commander was there or not, they would have to talk about it after this battle, otherwise they would end badly. This is the characteristic of mercenaries, from this point of view, mercenaries are much better than the regular army, because their job is to fight, and it doesn't matter who the commander is, from this point of view, the mercenary army is more stable than the regular army.

"I will be the temporary commander-in-chief below, and this appointment was personally appointed by Commander Kongming, and all the army commanders and the commanders of the various corps were present at that time, so now continue the battle. Li Yao said. Seeing that the other commanders had no opinions, the Snow Wolf Mercenary Army continued to fight, and it was not affected in any way, because the plan had been made, it would not stop because of anyone's absence, and the battle continued. This point of the mercenary army is something that the Harvey Empire did not expect, or this has a lot to do with the mission-based command that Kong Ming has always insisted on. And after this battle, Kong Ming's command method quickly spread to most of the mercenaries. Because, it will not affect the battle because of the disappearance of the commander.

The moment Kong Ming appeared, Kong Ming immediately ran towards the outside of the magic array, for teleportation magic, as a space magician, Kong Ming's immunity was much stronger, just when he was about to reach the edge of the magic array, there was a flash of light in the teleportation array, and Ronald also appeared here. The impact of spatial teleportation will be for anyone, it's just the difference between big and small, far and near, Ronald is very depressed now, the battle that could have ended with just a wave of his hand, but stopped the moment he saw that Kong Ming was a soldier saint, so that Kong Ming ran away from him very calmly, and he didn't think too much about it after seeing that it was a magic teleportation array and followed him directly, and after he followed up, before he figured out what was going on, he felt three sharp things stabbing at him, and instinctively opened the field, but obviously it was not only late, but it was not much more than it was opened, which surprised him, because here his domain has been strongly suppressed, among the various laws in this space, the law of the fire element has been forcibly suppressed by the law of the water element. The instinct of the strong man made him flash to the side, but the influence of teleportation and the suppression of the domain, under the effect of these two situations at the same time, his movements were also slower, and the three daggers stabbed him, fortunately, the three daggers were all grazed his body, one grazed his neck, one grazed his abdomen, and the other grazed from his thigh, worthy of being a god-level powerhouse, in this case, he avoided the vital parts, but, for the three assassins, how could it be possible to assassinate a god-level powerhouse and forget to smear poison on the daggerAt this point, after Ronald dodged the attack, he finally saw the shape clearly. This is a quiet small valley, surrounded by birds and flowers, ordinary and quiet, not far in front of a beautiful girl looking at him affectionately, the three assassins have long not known where they went, at this time, the girl smiled at him, handed him the flowers in his hand, he smiled, the girl here is really amorous and bold, he looked around, the three assassins still did not appear, stretched out their hands to take the flowers, but at this time, a cold air rushed from the front, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, why from the flowers a murderous auraHurriedly withdrew his hand and avoided it to the side, but it was obviously too late, and he saw flowers pass over his hand, and then a sharp pain came from his hand, one of his hands had been cut off from his wrist, and the intense pain relief also changed the scenery in front of him. The valley was gone, and he appeared in a magic array, outside the magic array was a clear river, and in the array was a strong water element, and in front of him was no longer a beauty, but an acquaintance with fierce eyes, a god-level powerhouse in the land of chaos, Bian Ping. Bian Ping's sword was dripping with blood, it was his blood, and his palm fell to the ground. At this time, he finally knew that he had fallen into the trap of Kongming, or rather, he had fallen into the trap of Bian Ping, which was a conspiracy, and what he had just seen was just a phantom array.

"Ronald, you're finally here. Bian Ping said. (To be continued......)
