Section 126

Seeing the Gu Sha Army fighting bravely, ten thousand men united as one, cutting down enemy soldiers like chopping melons and vegetables, General Gu Sha couldn't help but laugh heartily.

Ten thousand cavalry charged into the enemy camp, reaching the central tent in less than a moment.

The defending General Peng Yule hurriedly rose into the air, erupting with the pressure of a Heaven Realm Martial Saint, intending to kill as many of the Gu Sha Army as possible!

Unfortunately, although his idea was good, General Gu Sha wouldn't just stand by and watch him act.

The moment Peng Yule took to the air, a massive palm slapped him hard on the back of the head.

Peng Yule didn't even have time to use his Divine Ability before immediately falling to the ground like a meteor.

A large pit formed in the ground, his eyes were blurry, and his mind was a mess.

In the last moments of his life, he looked in disbelief at General General Gu Sha walking towards him step by step.

"A Martial Emperor, how could a Martial Emperor be leading the team!"

"Who exactly are you, and why were you able to bypass Heavenly Martial Great General and NineMing Daoist to enter our military territory?!"

General Gu Sha sneered and did not answer Peng Yule.

His only response was a heavy punch carrying monstrous power.

His brain exploded, his head burst open.

Peng Yule, the highest commander of this grain camp, at the Heaven Realm Martial Saint Realm, was dead.

With their General dead, the defending army, like a headless dragon, was even less of a match for the cavalry.

These soldiers quickly scattered, becoming deserters, abandoning the twenty grain depots that supplied the hundred thousand strong army.

General General Gu Sha held a torch, surrounded by thousands of cavalry, and laughed heartily.

"In today's battle, you all have the greatest merit!"

"Start burning!"

With a command, the soldiers of the Gu Sha Army immediately set fire to the grain depots around them.

Immediately, thick smoke billowed, and black clouds obscured the sun.

General Gu Sha was incredibly excited in his heart, what was fought in a battle between two armies?

To put it plainly, what was fought was grain and fodder.

One hundred thousand people, one hundred thousand mouths, they needed to eat every day.

If they didn't eat, who would fight for you?

He had now destroyed Heavenly Martial Great General's hundred thousand grain and fodder supply, the front-line soldiers were starving, it would be good if they didn't mutiny!

Under Xia Feng's arrangement, the turning point of this battle was finally coming.

The news that the grain camp had been breached was quickly spread by the fleeing soldiers.

The elite soldiers stationed in Ling City immediately rushed towards the front line.

At this time, the main force of the Tianwu Army had been attacking the city for three hours, but the other side was like an iron barrel, leaving them unable to find any weakness at all.

The Tianwu Army had already suffered over five thousand casualties, but not a single person had successfully climbed onto the city wall.

The soldiers at the front were replaced batch after batch, this extremely stubborn assault battle made their eyes turn from fiery to dim and broken.

Heavenly Martial Great General's face was not looking good, he didn't know how the Emperor Child of the Great Xia Empire had trained this army that had fought a hundred battles.

But the enemy's soldiers also had casualties, the good thing was that thirty thousand people was not a large number.

According to this progress, they just needed to slowly wear them down, at worst exchanging two for one, seven days would be enough to take Hong City!

He didn't care about the cost.

What Heavenly Martial Great General wanted was not Hong City at all.

But Xia Feng, the Emperor Child.

If he could defeat the Emperor Child, it would definitely be a great achievement.

If he could capture the Emperor Child, he believed that even if he was a Yellow Rank Martial Emperor, he would be exceptionally promoted to the Middle Nine Emperors and enjoy endless glory and wealth!

Unfortunately.

From the rear of the military camp, a fast horse was whipped, galloping like mad towards Heavenly Martial Great General.

"Battle report! Battle report!"

"In the rear, an unknown Martial Emperor is leading over ten thousand cavalry and has breached our grain depots!"

"General, what should we do?!"

As soon as the scout cavalry reached Heavenly Martial Great General, he immediately knelt down, his face filled with panic.

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of Heavenly Martial Great General and NineMing Daoist changed.

It wasn't just the two of them, the expressions of the other high-ranking Generals also became extremely ugly.

"All the grain depots are destroyed? Is this true?"

Heavenly Martial Great General's pupils constricted, his mind in utter chaos.

He stepped forward and held the scout cavalry's shoulder, doubting he had heard correctly, and asked again.

"Absolutely true, General, the one leading the army is a Martial Emperor, Defending General Peng was not his match at all."

"According to the fleeing soldiers, that person killed General Peng with one palm, then put saltpeter on our grain depots and had his subordinates use fire Martial Skills to burn them all down..."

"There is no more grain in the rear, the Ling City division can only last for five days, General, what should we do?"

Cai Feng no longer had the mind to listen to the scout cavalry's tearful voice.

He constantly paced in the tent, his eyes showing hatred, his jaw clenched tightly.

"I knew something was off about missing a Martial Emperor, that scoundrel General Gu Sha... actually dared to attack my rear!"

"So that means, the defending army in Hong City is only twenty thousand strong?" NineMing Daoist frowned, then suggested.

"General, why don't we launch a full-scale assault on the city, sixty thousand against twenty thousand, if we don't count the sacrifices, one day is enough to take Hong City!"

"Our current grain and fodder can only last for two days, if we can't take Hong City, then this battle will be a failure!"

NineMing Daoist's words were not without reason, Heavenly Martial Great General, as an experienced veteran General, couldn't think of any other good solution at this time.

"You go arrange it, increase the numbers, speed up the attack rhythm, we must break through Hong City before dusk today!"

Heavenly Martial Great General's eyes turned fierce, a desire to tear Xia Feng and General Gu Sha into ten thousand pieces formed in his heart!

Chapter 155: Ten Great Saintesses Reinforce, Unstoppable

This battle can only be won, not lost!

This was the order passed down from the Nichao Empire, Heavenly Martial Great General's pressure at this moment was greater than anyone else's.

He truly didn't expect that Xia Feng would have such audacity.

His numbers were already not many, yet he actually dared to divert ten thousand cavalry to launch a surprise attack on the rear grain camp.

One must know that if these ten thousand men were discovered by the local defending army, the front line would face his furious retaliation.

But Xia Feng didn't care.

Now that the grain camp was destroyed, Heavenly Martial Great General was directly driven mad with rage and immediately chose a scorched-earth tactic.

Soon, the sixty thousand men in the rear also assembled their forces and marched out, the mighty soldiers advancing towards Hong City.

Drums and gongs thundered, their might greatly increased!

All sixty thousand soldiers attacked the city, the morale of the siege camp at the front, which was not high before, immediately soared at this moment, speeding up, and continued to madly erect ladders forward!

"General Gu Sha succeeded!"

Xia Feng's eyes lit up slightly, looking at the enemy's movements, he instantly made a judgment.

Then, he said to Chen Boyu and the high-ranking officers of the Gu Sha Army behind him.

"Everyone, the enemy no longer has grain and fodder supplies, no matter what, we must endure this wave, we must hold on!"

Facing an enemy four times their size attacking, although these Generals felt a bit uneasy in their hearts, under ten thousand years of training, their mental state remained stable, and they nodded one after another.

They turned around and went to convey the orders to their subordinates.

Seeing the two imposing figures in the sky charging together with the army formation, Xia Feng and Chen Boyu also rose into the air.

If the two Martial Emperors were not dealt with, the defending Gu Sha Army would likely be quickly slaughtered in large numbers.

Cai Feng had already chosen to fight to the death, Xia Feng and Chen Boyu must hold them back!

The four Great Martial Emperors floated in the air again, but this time the situation was different from usual.

Before, it was a standoff, but this time...

Seeing Xia Feng flying over, Heavenly Martial Great General immediately led his men to attack!

Within the army formation formed by the twenty thousand men in the rear, he furiously pulled out his double-chained warhammer and smashed it fiercely towards Xia Feng!

He, a Huang rank fifth level Martial Emperor, coupled with the army formation's amplification, this strike was even more unstoppable!

Unfortunately, Xia Feng, a Yellow Tier Ninth Level Martial Emperor, was much higher in Realm than him.
