#2019 - A group of chickens and dogs
The battlefield outside the city grew increasingly intense.
After the rune war crossbows were withdrawn, the Langya army had no more concerns, no longer needing to avoid the bombardment of those terrifying war weapons, and could better assemble and form battle formations.
The defending army's 100,000 elite troops formed a large circle, surrounding the area where Nalan Jingyi, Feng Ling, and the Ten Phoenix Guards were fighting, preventing the Langya infantry from forming a large battle formation to attack them.
Although, with their strength, even a large battle formation of Langya infantry would not pose a threat.
However, they were currently fighting powerful opponents, and in this situation, the impact of a large battle formation would inevitably affect them.
The defending elite troops were very brave; they were originally selected from the strongest batch of people from among the twenty million soldiers, and it could be said that each of them was a king among soldiers.
In terms of individual strength, they were even stronger than most of the soldiers in the two strongest elite legions stationed in the imperial capital.
It was just that their numbers were far less than the two strongest elite legions, which numbered over twenty million.
The 100,000 elite troops who had cultivated the Fighting Saint Method naturally did not fall behind when facing the onslaught of hundreds of thousands of Langya border infantry.
Each of them faced the siege of several Langya soldiers, but the battle spears in their hands always managed to block or deflect the attacks, and launch fierce counterattacks.
In this process, Langya soldiers constantly fell, blood splattering across the battlefield.
The sounds of shouting, clashing weapons, shattering armor, and breaking flesh intertwined together, forming a single mass across the entire battlefield.
At the center of the battlefield, Feng Ling wielded a long sword, fighting alone against two half-step Celestial God experts from the Lanling Royal Mansion.
She had a high understanding of swordsmanship, her sword intent surged, and each time she struck, a sound like ten thousand swords鳴ringing resounded across the battlefield.
It was already shocking enough for a True God peerless heavenly position to fight a half-step Celestial God.
After all, the half-step Celestial God realm had the word Celestial God in it.
The gap between this realm and the True God peerless heavenly position was not just as simple as a heavenly position, but also included some suppression brought about by touching the threshold of the Celestial God realm.
However, even so, Feng Ling was still not at a disadvantage in a two-on-one situation, making it impossible for the two half-step Celestial God experts from the Lanling Royal Mansion to gain the upper hand.
They were inwardly shocked and furious. When did Feng Ling become so powerful?
Her sword intent was so sharp and fierce that it made them feel terrified.
On the side of the Ten Phoenix Guards, they joined forces to besiege several True God peerless heavenly position experts, and at this time, they had already forced those few people into a dangerous situation, with many sword wounds on their bodies.
Those few peerless heavenly position True God experts were inwardly terrified, using all their strength to resist and dodge, but the strength of the attacks continued to increase.
Faced with the joint attack of the Ten Phoenix Guards, they were simply unable to resolve or avoid all the attacks.
Not only had the Phoenix Guard leader Feng Ling become unimaginably strong, able to compete with their two elders, but even the strength of the Phoenix Guards had far exceeded their expectations!
How could this be?
As high-level members of the Lanling Royal Mansion, they had long studied the Phoenix Guards beside the Emperor, and even if they didn't understand their strength 100%, they at least understood 80-90%.
But now, it was obviously wrong!
Could it be that their strength had been raised in this short year?
However, how could it be possible to have such a big improvement in one year?
Unless they had eaten an immortal pill, otherwise it was really impossible to believe.
But the facts were right in front of them, and they had no choice but to believe it!
Nalan Jingyi's side also had the upper hand.
She was only facing one half-step Celestial God realm expert, and her long sword was used with divine skill. Her sword energy crisscrossed, causing her opponent to be exhausted from parrying.
The battle had evolved from a stalemate at the beginning to almost complete suppression.
The half-step Celestial God expert from the Lanling Royal Mansion retreated step by step.
Each time Nalan Jingyi attacked, it put him in a dangerous situation, and several cuts had already been made in the clothes on his body by the sword energy.
He was both shocked and angry. When did even the Emperor become so powerful?
Although she was only a True God peerless heavenly position, she was making it difficult for him, a half-step Celestial God, to parry. If this continued, he would inevitably be injured, or even die here.
He looked at the battlefield of the other experts in his family and felt that the situation was getting worse and worse.
"The opponent is too tough, let's go!"
The half-step Celestial God experts from the Lanling Royal Mansion quickly made a decision.
They realized that they could not kill the Emperor today. If they continued to delay, it would only plunge themselves into an abyss of eternal doom, leaving their lives here in vain!
"Since you're here, don't even think about leaving!
Today, all of you will stay on this battlefield for me!"
Seeing that they wanted to retreat, Nalan Jingyi couldn't help but say coldly, her attacks becoming even more fierce. Each time she struck, there was more than one sword energy.
Those sword energies also combined into sword formation diagrams in the air while attacking their opponents, and sword formation diagrams were formed around the opponents.
Hundreds of thousands of sword energies rushed out of those sword formation diagrams, forming a long river of sword energy, constantly impacting the half-step Celestial Gods of the Lanling Royal Mansion, making it impossible for them to retreat.
On Feng Ling's side, she was facing two half-step Celestial Gods.
Although she tried her best to stop her opponents from retreating, she was still unable to do so and could only block one person.
Seeing this, the Ten Phoenix Guards immediately separated five people and rushed over, joining Feng Ling's battlefield, forcibly stopping the retreating half-step Celestial God.
The remaining five Phoenix Guards fiercely attacked those few True God peerless heavenly position experts, trying to kill them in the shortest possible time, so that they could quickly support the other Phoenix Guards.
They knew very well that five sisters, even if their strength had greatly increased recently, were definitely not a match for a half-step Celestial God, and could only forcibly stop them for a while.
If the time was longer, the sisters would inevitably be injured.
This was what they did not want to see.
If the ten people joined forces, they could hold back the half-step Celestial God for a longer time.
That way, they could buy time for the Emperor and the commander to kill or severely injure the other two half-step Celestial Gods.
As long as they could kill one of the half-step Celestial God experts, then the remaining two half-step Celestial God experts would no longer have a chance to retreat from the battlefield!
"Damn it! You think you can keep us all here? Wishful thinking!"
The half-step Celestial God experts from the Lanling Royal Mansion roared angrily, their voices resounding like muffled thunder in the sky above the battlefield.
They were extremely angry, and even the Human King bloodline fire began to burn on their bodies.
However, even so, they were still unable to reverse the situation.
As they sublimated, Nalan Jingyi, Feng Ling, and the Phoenix Guards were also sublimating.
Although doing so would pay a small price, they did not hesitate and were determined to keep all these experts from the Lanling Royal Mansion!
"What are you waiting for? Do you want to watch us die here?"
The half-step Celestial God expert from the Lanling Royal Mansion roared angrily.
These words were naturally said to the Langya commander of this army.
Although they chose to help Lanling King deal with Lanling Emperor because of tempting conditions and interests, they were also very happy to see Lanling King's people suffer.
They originally wanted to watch them die.
However, the situation of their infantry was not optimistic. The casualties were heavy, and they were not a match for the 100,000 elite troops at all.
If they did not send reinforcements, more infantry would die.
"Cavalry! Charge! Be sure to annihilate those hundred thousand elite troops!"
The Langya commander finally couldn't hold back and issued an attack order in a loud voice.
He had some absolute confidence in this cavalry.
This cavalry came from the elite legion, and their strength was much stronger than the infantry!
Two hundred thousand against one hundred thousand, plus the impact of the mounts, what could the 100,000 elite troops of the Jade Mountain City defenders use to resist?
Rumble!
A earth-shattering roar resounded on the battlefield. Two hundred thousand heavy cavalry rushed towards the hundred thousand elite defending troops in the center of the battlefield like a torrent of steel.
Each member of this cavalry of the Langya Dynasty was covered in thick armor, only revealing their eyes.
The mounts under them were also the same, covered in armor, completely like high-speed moving steel machines!
"Master!" Qi Zhenshan looked at the blood-colored cavalry rushing at high speed, his expression solemn, "This is the elite of the Langya Dynasty! The armor on their bodies is very tough, and they have a numerical advantage.
With the assistance of the infantry, our 100,000 elite infantry will definitely not be able to stop them!
Especially the cavalry commander, who is also a half-step Celestial God realm expert!"
"Hahaha, the elite cavalry is here! You want to keep us here, dream on!"
As soon as Qi Zhenshan's words fell, a triumphant laugh rang out on the battlefield from the half-step Celestial God expert of the Lanling Royal Mansion.
As long as these elite cavalry battle formations charged once, the elite army guarding the Emperor would inevitably be crushed.
At that time, the cavalry would charge towards the Emperor and Feng Ling, and they would have to free up their hands to resist.
And they could take the opportunity to escape the battlefield!
Just as they were making wishful thinking, feeling confident, and thinking that they were no longer threatened by death.
A figure jumped down from the city wall, and a cold voice also rang out, "It's delusional to think that the Langya cavalry will help you escape. How naive and ignorant.
You think the powerful Langya cavalry is nothing more than a bunch of worthless chickens and dogs."
The cold voice was not loud, but it could be heard clearly on this battlefield where all kinds of sounds rose and fell one after another.
The half-step Celestial God expert of the Lanling Royal Mansion looked over upon hearing the sound, and a cold light burst out between his eyes!
The one surnamed Yue!
Their killing intent towards him was no less than their killing intent towards the Emperor!
They knew very well that it was this person who forced them to this point today!
"The one surnamed Yue, you dare to boast shamelessly! Could it be that you naively think that you can fight so many elite cavalry? You don't know the immensity of heaven and earth!"
They sneered endlessly.
Two hundred thousand elite cavalry, their battle formation exuding terrifying power, led by a commander who was a Demi-God, and within their ranks, many high-level generals.
It could be said that such a cavalry force was enough to easily kill a Demi-God!
As long as the Demi-God didn't run and confronted them head-on, certain death would be the result!
What could that Yue fellow use to resist?
