Watching Zhao Feng at the forefront, the motivation he brought to his troops was evident. Even the Penal Battalion, which initially doubted Qin’s compensation, was now inspired, roaring as they followed Zhao Feng into the fray.
With Zhao Feng setting an example and the Qi Fortune seal’s blessing, the multiple boosts for each soldier were undeniable.
On Yanggao City’s walls.
Gazing at the Qin Army charging ahead.
The Wei General defending the city imdiately reported upwards.
"Defend with all your strength."
"Those who retreat, behead them."
"New recruits to the front, veteran soldiers supervise."
"Supervisory Army, charge forward, maintain military discipline."
Long Zhang imdiately commanded.
His orders were swiftly relayed by the ssengers.
Even as the Qin Army comnced their assault, Long Zhang remained calm, devoid of any fear.
It seed everything was under his control.
Within the city.
The Wei Army quickly mobilized.
Yet the chaotic rain of arrows from the void above didn’t cease.
From ti to ti, Wei Soldiers were struck down by random arrows.
The city was in a state of devastation.
And many of the Wei Soldiers on the city walls trembled, with many new recruits even wetting their pants in fear.
"General Long’s orders."
"Defend with all your strength."
"Those who retreat, behead them."
"Archers, heed the command, the Qin Army is within range, kill."
"Stone Throwing Machine, ballista, begin the attack."
The Wei General on the city walls shouted loudly.
Commands were issued.
The Wei Soldiers hiding beneath the city walls reluctantly stepped out; in an instant, many hadn’t even reacted before being struck down by chaotic arrows.
"Qin arrows, Qin arrows are still there."
"What do we do? I don’t want to die."
Many of the new recruits on the city walls dared not step out, utterly terrified.
Seeing this, the Wei General frowned, drew his sword, and directly killed a cowardly Wei new recruit, shouting loudly: "Supervisory Team, those who dare to shrink back, enforce military law on the spot."
"Fire arrows."
"Engage the enemy."
Under his threat.
The Wei Soldiers on the city walls could only draw their bows and fire, but their formations were utterly chaotic and disorganized.
The real battlefield is extrely cruel.
If one hasn’t experienced war, seen death firsthand, or killed an enemy themselves, the shadow and impact on new recruits are imnse.
This is the difference between new and veteran soldiers who haven’t been to the battlefield or seen blood.
A sparse rain of arrows fell from the city walls.
Accompanied by the firing of Stone Throwing Machines and ballistae.
Many of the Qin Soldiers outside the city were also killed by chaotic arrows and rolling stones.
Heads cracked and bleeding, pierced by chaotic arrows, crushed into pulp by rolling stones.
Such scenes were everywhere.
This, of course, was unavoidable.
Facing the rain of arrows from the city walls.
Zhao Feng wielded Dragon Spring, the blade shimring as he cleaved countless chaotic arrows away.
"Using new recruits to defend the city, luring the enemy in deep."
"Wei Wuji."
"Your plan is indeed well thought out." Zhao Feng sneered inwardly.
As a seasoned general, the differences between new and veteran soldiers were evident from the Wei Army’s defense.
The Qin Army behind suffered so casualties, but their offensive montum was unimpeded.
Soon.
Zhao Feng charged to the base of the city gates.
"Cut!"
To Zhao Feng now, there was no need to use any Martial Technique.
Raising Dragon Spring, channeling True Qi, a casual slash was made.
The blade struck directly at the city gate.
Sword Qi scattered imdiately.
Boom!
The sturdy iron gate was instantly cleaved open, shattering into pieces.
Just like any previous gate Zhao Feng had cut, the enemy inside was all left in shock.
"Gale Sword Skill."
Without any hesitation, Zhao Feng charged in with his sword.
Wielding his blade, with a swing, dozens of attacks were made in one breath.
In a split second.
A dozen Wei Soldiers fell dead.
Almost all fell simultaneously, clutching their throats as they struggled and died.
"Killed Wei Soldiers, picked up 1 point of True Qi."
"Killed Wei Soldiers, picked up 1 day of lifespan."
"Killed Wei Soldiers, picked up 1 day of lifespan."
...
Long absent from the battlefield.
The long-lost attribute pickup prompts.
This naturally made Zhao Feng extrely excited.
"Kill!"
A cold shout.
Zhao Feng’s gaze swept coldly, looking at the Wei Soldiers ahead as if they were prey.
Dragon Spring wielded, the blade exuding a chilling light, one slash sending Sword Qi raging, slaughtering the enemy furiously.
Just one man, capable of cutting through a thousand troops.
Even without using True Qi, Zhao Feng’s other attributes were more than enough.
"Follow Shangjiangjun."
"Kill."
The Sharp Warriors behind Zhao Feng roared wildly.
This included the Penal Battalion.
Each one brimming with fighting spirit.
Even as arrows rained from above, even as comrades fell continuously, it couldn’t stop the Qin Army’s Sharp Warriors’ advance.
The Qin Army surged forward as one, under the leadership of each Wanjiang, each Capital Commandant, following Zhao Feng into the fray.
The opened city gate was like a river breaching its banks.
The Qin Army was an overwhelming flood, surging into Yanggao City, slaughtering the Wei Soldiers they encountered.
Every Qin Soldier wielded a Long Spear, wielding a Longsword, charging into battle furiously, killing any Wei Soldiers they saw.
Sweeping across the entire city walls.
"Zhao Feng actually personally led the charge?"
The Wei General on the city walls panicked, utterly horrified.
No one ever thought this city gate would be breached in a single blow.
The surging Qin Army charged wildly, and even the determined resistance of the Wei troops couldn’t halt the Qin Army’s ferocity.
The assault continued.
Within the city.
"Reporting to General Long."
"The Qin Army has breached the city gates and entered the city." a Wei General reported in panic.
"Indeed, as Your Majesty predicted."
"The Qin Army has unknown siege weapons; the gates are utterly unable to stop them."
Long Zhang sighed, yet his eyes revealed not the slightest hint of tension.
It seed the situation was still within his grasp.
"Issue my order."
