270: Chapter 270 The Lingzhou Soldiers Who Defeated Zhao Tianqing

News that Governor-General Zhao Tianqing was leading a large army straight toward Menghu City was quickly discovered by the Brocade Guard scouts.

They used the Sound Transmission Child Gu to relay the message back to Luo Ningshuang.

She immediately went to the City Lord's Mansion to see Chen Hu.

However, seeing Chen Hu lying on a chair basking in the sun, she couldn't help but feel that something about the scene was off.

"You are a rebel leader, how can you be so leisurely?"

"Ningshuang, what is it this time?" Chen Hu asked lazily.

Luo Ningshuang picked up the teapot, poured herself a cup, and downed it in one gulp before saying, "Governor-General Zhao Tianqing is leading an army of forty thousand toward our Menghu City!"

"Wonderful!"

Chen Hu perked up. He had been bored, and now this old guy, Governor-General Zhao Tianqing, had actually brought troops to attack him.

He decided to lead the troops himself to attack the enemy.

"That's forty thousand troops, you can't underestimate them!" Luo Ningshuang reminded him.

"Don't worry, it's just forty thousand troops. To me, it's nothing!"

Chen Hu said dismissively, "I plan to lead the army personally to deal with Governor-General Zhao Tianqing!"

"Then how many soldiers do you plan to take?" Luo Ningshuang asked.

"One thousand is enough!"

"What? Only one thousand?" Luo Ningshuang exclaimed.

"One thousand Organ Refining soldiers!"

The three thousand Organ Refining soldiers Chen Hu gave Luo Ningshuang were, at best, semi-formed.

Because they were all cavalry, and cavalry needed to be paired with horses to unleash their full strength.

Therefore, without horses, the strength of the cavalry would be greatly diminished.

"How about I lead the Brocade Guard to accompany you?" Luo Ningshuang suggested.

"Are you busy? If you aren't, come with me for some fun. If you are, stay in the city and handle affairs!"

Chen Hu said. To him, facing Governor-General Zhao Tianqing was not something to be taken seriously.

Never mind leading one thousand Organ Refining soldiers; even if he faced them alone, he could wipe out their forty thousand-strong army without a scratch.

Luo Ningshuang thought about it. The Brocade Guard had just been established.

Many matters required her, as the Commander, to make decisions, and she also needed to work hard to Cultivate and improve her cultivation base.

Ever since Chen Hu helped her temper her body, she found that her Cultivation speed was too fast, making her feel addicted to it.

Just last night, she had already achieved a Breakthrough to the Mid-stage Marrow Refining Realm.

She was certain that in two more days, she would be able to achieve a Breakthrough to Late Stage Marrow Refining.

Moreover, her current combat power was terrifyingly strong; she had already tested it against her subordinates who were in the Late-stage Refining Viscera.

Although she still couldn't defeat them.

But when encountering those at the Late-stage Refining Viscera, she could at least hold out for over a hundred moves.

If she waited until she achieved a Breakthrough to Late Stage Marrow Refining, she should have the strength to contend with the Late-stage Refining Viscera.

After saying goodbye to Liu Xiangyue and Nangong Hongyan.

Chen Hu left Zhenlong City.

After executing Near and Far, he quickly discovered the Lingzhou army advancing rapidly.

Perhaps because Governor-General Zhao Tianqing was so eager to avenge his son, his marching speed was extremely fast.

Chen Hu recalled the Divine Ability and techniques he had mastered.

He realized that with just the techniques he mastered, he could easily toy with and destroy this forty-thousand-strong army.

"Let's give them a little appetizer first!"

A cold smile flashed across Chen Hu's lips, and then he began to execute the High Grade technique—Meteor Fire Rain.

The technique was executed successfully.

The next moment, hundreds of giant boulders appeared high in the sky.

Following that, these boulders fell rapidly from the sky with a whistling sound.

At first, the sound was not very intense.

But as the boulders fell faster and faster, the whistling sound grew louder and louder.

At the same time, due to the rapid friction with the air during the descent, flames appeared on these boulders.

The forty thousand troops who were originally marching.

Were all attracted by the sound and looked up one after another.

Then, expressions of horror appeared on their faces.

Because they saw hundreds of flaming boulders falling toward them from the sky.

Governor-General Zhao Tianqing naturally discovered it too. A look of astonishment flashed in his eyes, and he immediately infused his voice with True Qi: "Scatter! Everyone, scatter in all directions!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Just as Governor-General Zhao Tianqing's voice fell, and before the soldiers could react, hundreds of boulders wrapped in flames descended from the sky and smashed heavily into the ranks.

Mushroom clouds rose into the air one after another.

Accompanied by screams swallowed by the deafening roars.

Chen Hu discovered that after this wave of bombardment, at least over ten thousand soldiers had been smashed to death by the meteors.

Among the remaining thirty thousand, many were injured.

Therefore, this wave resulted in at least twenty thousand casualties.

It directly wiped out half of the forty-thousand-strong army.

"This Meteor Fire Rain is truly awesome; Wang Mang's defeat was not unjust!"

Looking at the miserable Lingzhou army below, Chen Hu pondered whether to launch another wave.

After thinking about it, Chen Hu decided against it.

After experiencing such a bombardment, the morale of the Lingzhou army had completely dissipated.

So, he waved his hand, and one thousand Great Snow Dragon Cavalry appeared directly behind him.

Every Dragon Cavalry was an Organ Refining Realm expert.

Suddenly, Chen Hu realized a problem: he didn't have a horse.

However, this problem was easy to solve.

He let the 1000 Great Snow Dragon Cavalry wait here first.

Then he executed Near and Far and disappeared from the spot.

When he appeared again, he had arrived at the stables of the Zhenlong City City Lord's Mansion.

He beckoned to Xiao Hei.

The horse immediately jumped out of the stall and came before him.

Chen Hu mounted the horse, executed Near and Far again, and the man and horse vanished into thin air.

When he appeared again, Chen Hu was already in front of the one thousand Great Snow Dragon Cavalry.

With a thought, a High Grade Divine weapon long spear appeared in Chen Hu's hand.

"Charge!"

Chen Hu raised his long spear and led the one thousand Great Snow Dragon Cavalry to charge toward the Lingzhou army.

The rapid sound of horse hooves rang out.

The Lingzhou army, which was in the middle of collecting the corpses of the dead soldiers and treating the wounded, immediately became panicked.

Seeing this scene, Governor-General Zhao Tianqing's face was so gloomy it was almost dripping water.

He immediately ordered all cavalry to rally around him.

And then intercept the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry led by Chen Hu.

Unfortunately.

The Great Snow Dragon Cavalry were all riding top-tier steeds; before Governor-General Zhao Tianqing could reorganize his cavalry, they had already charged right in front of them.

Chen Hu, as the commanding general, directly activated a Military Formation Card.

Instantly, his defense, attack power, and morale, along with those of the one thousand Great Snow Dragon Cavalry behind him, increased threefold.

The Great Snow Dragon Cavalry was already terrifyingly strong, and now, with a threefold increase.

They were simply like heavenly soldiers descending to earth.

If one were standing high in the sky, they would find that this Great Snow Dragon Cavalry was like a white torrent.

Anything that stood in its way could only be pulverized.

Seeing the invincible Great Snow Dragon Cavalry, Governor-General Zhao Tianqing, who was reorganizing his cavalry, couldn't help but feel a flash of fear in his eyes.

Originally, he had wanted to lead his cavalry to crash into them.

But after discovering how terrifying the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry was, he no longer had the courage to crash into them.

"Retreat, retreat quickly!"

Governor-General Zhao Tianqing made his decision and immediately led thousands of cavalry to retreat.

"Pursue!"

Chen Hu saw that Governor-General Zhao Tianqing wanted to escape.

Naturally, he was unwilling to let this old guy escape.

So, he accelerated the charge.

The Lingzhou army had already lost their morale, and after seeing the horror of the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry, they were almost scared out of their wits and had no courage to resist at all.

Chen Hu didn't even bother to demand their surrender.

They all threw down their weapons one after another and knelt on the ground to surrender.

Seeing that these Lingzhou troops had all surrendered, Chen Hu didn't kill them anymore, but instead went straight to pursue and kill Governor-General Zhao Tianqing.
