Arrows rained down.

However, the location of the corpse was far from the Nine Kingdoms Allied Army' position, beyond the range of the arrows. The sparse arrows that were shot out all landed crookedly in the ground, like a light drizzle, posing no threat to Sun Fei and the others.

The Big Black barked excitedly, carrying Sun Fei back and forth like a plume of black smoke. This round trip transported six corpses back. The other Urban Management of Chambord City were equally efficient; each grabbed two corpses, picked up shields and Long Spear from the ground, and ran back...

In less than ten minutes, all one hundred spear-and-shield infantrymen who had died in Red Water City were brought back to the main formation of Chambord City.

These guys are infuriating! They didn't even leave the Red Water Kingdom a helmet.

After everyone had retreated, His Majesty the King, riding on the back of the Big Black, jumped up and down, shouting, "Hey, hey, His Highness the God of War taught us that extravagance is unforgivable! Hurry up, there's still a Long Spear left there, go and get it back for me!"

Upon hearing this, the two Urban Management, as thin as bamboo poles, immediately ran back, snatched the last lone Long Spear stuck in the ground, waved it triumphantly at the allied King in the distance, then turned around, bent over, pulled down their trousers, and disdainfully patted their buttocks at the long-absent, great King...

Looking at the straw sandals fluttering in the sky above the distant battlefield, the Red Water Kingdom was in tears, almost crying out loud.

The Urban Management of Chambord City were nothing more than a band of omnipresent bandits, a swarm of locusts that left nothing behind, and a group of indiscriminate groundhogs. Wherever they went, everything was left bare, not even a hair. At this moment, only grass clippings were flying around in the middle of the position, and there were only pools of blood on the ground. Nothing else was left.

That's utterly shameless!

The King on the allied side were dumbfounded.

Of course, the coalition forces did take counter-looting measures during this process.

However, the fifty [ Jebe ] archers of Chambord City were simply too monstrous. Fifty bows were like fifty Grim Reaper's Scythe, firmly suppressing more than two thousand men. Anyone who dared to charge forward was immediately riddled with arrows. Even the allied archers were firmly suppressed, not to mention the other troops. Even those wielding giant shields were useless. These arrows seemed to have eyes, shooting from all sorts of unexpected places, from the gaps in the shields, the peepholes, and even the insteps of the feet. A touch meant death, and a hit meant certain death, without exception.

Two thousand menacing soldiers could only watch helplessly as the Urban Management of Chambord City seized everything.

After Chambord City retrieved all the corpses back to their own camp, the hundred [ Flame God Iron Hooves ] from Red Water City circled a thousand meters away and were reorganizing their formation to prepare for an iron hoof charge. These heavily armored soldiers, who were not afraid of archers, had run too far and were of no help whatsoever.

The morale of the Nine Kingdoms Allied Army plummeted like a stock chart that had been poisoned!

The atmosphere within the Chambord City formation on the opposite side was quite the opposite.

In front of the Nine Kingdoms Allied Army, the more than fifty victorious Urban Management, laughing and joking, stripped the light armor off the fallen soldiers of the Red Water Kingdom and put it directly on their own bodies. Then, they picked up mandarin Long Spear shields, gripped long spears tightly, and were transformed from ragtag soldiers into a fully armed and imposing elite infantry formation.

Sun Fei laughed.

Thinking to myself, it was absolutely brilliant and forward-thinking of me to name these bastards " Urban Management " back then. At least when it comes to stealing things, these bastards are truly deserving of the name and live up to the great name of Urban Management.

"Haha, thank the Red Water Kingdom for his generosity in sending equipment!" Sun Fei ordered, intending to deliberately provoke the Red Water Kingdom was already on the verge of madness.

"Thank you Red Water Kingdom, for the gun, shield, and armor!!"

"Haha, this armor is so imposing!!"

"Oh, but we're still missing a longsword. Your Majesty the generous Red Water Kingdom, could you perhaps send one over as well?"

As it turned out, the Urban Management officers were even more vicious than Sun Fei. Their shouts carried over, and many members of the opposing coalition were already so angry that their foreheads were practically spitting fire. These guys were just too deserving of a beating.

"Aaaaaahhhhhh..." The Red Water Kingdom was enraged beyond measure, rambling incoherently as if having a seizure. He couldn't wait for the [ Flame God Iron Hooves ] heavy cavalry regiment behind him to charge. Suddenly, trembling all over, he grabbed the King of Kingdom of Shenhua beside him by the neck and shouted, "Attack! Send your heavy infantry to charge! Charge forward, charge forward..."

Kingdom of Shenhua does indeed have a heavy infantry force of over two hundred men.

Although the heavy infantry advanced slowly, their armor was fairly complete. If they pulled down their visors to protect their faces, their armor, except for their wrists and calves which were vulnerable to arrows, could stop all the arrows. If they were to brave the rain of arrows and advance, they could at least reach the archers of Chambord City before losing half their men... However, the problem was that the Kingdom of Shenhua was reluctant to give up these two hundred heavy infantrymen, who were also his prized possessions.

But faced with the enraged and irrational Red Water Kingdom, he had no choice but to submit.

Faced with violence and tyranny, even the most precious things must be sacrificed. Otherwise, Kingdom of Shenhua is merely a fifth-class vassal state, and offending a third-class power like Red Water City could have dire consequences.

Just as the Kingdom of Shenhua was heartbroken and about to order his heavy infantry to make recommendations, an unexpected change occurred on the other side—the fifty [ Jebe ]-level archers suddenly picked up their longbows, turned around, split into two groups, and ran off to the sides, actually breaking away from the position.

"Ah, I can't take it anymore... I cut my finger, it hurts so much, I can't ejaculate!"

"Yes, run for your lives!"

The allied King vaguely heard one of the fleeing archers snapping his fingers and screaming in agony. Then, the archers turned tail and ran like startled rabbits, disappearing into the grass of a distant hill and vanishing quickly, their whereabouts unknown...

The Red Water Kingdom and the Kingdom of Shenhua stared at each other blankly.

Everyone was dumbfounded by this unbelievable scene.

What happened in front of Chambord City today has rendered the Allied leaders incapable of thinking.

They're being completely outplayed by their opponents!

"Charge! Advance!" The Kingdom of Shenhua was the first to react. Regardless of whether it was a trick by that idiot King of Chambord City, the fifty 'Grim Reapers' were finally gone. Everyone in the Allied Forces felt that the sky had suddenly turned blue, the air had become fresh, and the mountain pressing down on them had instantly disappeared. They could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Whether it's a trick or not, let's take this opportunity to crush Chambord City first. Even if those fifty sharpshooters return later, they won't be able to cause any trouble!"

This was a consensus among almost every King in the allied forces.

Upon receiving the order, more than two hundred heavy infantrymen from Kingdom of Shenhua, gripping double-edged broadswords in both hands, advanced in orderly steps. This was a terrifying torrent of steel; even the earth trembled beneath their feet. Leading the entire formation was a general over two meters tall, whose earth-yellow Dou Qi aura shimmered from beneath his armor, revealing him to be a Two-Star Class Earth-Element Dou Qi master.

"Attack!" the earth-elemental warrior grinned maliciously.

Without the deterrent of the Chambord City archers, the heavy infantrymen acted as proudly as generals, showing no restraint whatsoever. They lifted their helmets and visors, marching in unison while striking their breastplates with their broadswords. The synchronized metallic clanging resounded into the sky, and the palpable killing intent was chilling.

This is indeed an elite formation that should not be underestimated.

Aside from a slightly loose formation and a slightly arrogant momentum, in terms of pressure and impact, it was basically on par with the Black Armor Army's infantry formation. It seems that Kingdom of Shenhua has some foundation, making Chambord City seem even more shabby in comparison.

"Charge! Charge! Charge! Charge!"

Seeing an opportunity, the eldest Prince of Kingdom of Luneng excitedly brandished his sword and ordered his hundred-man swordsman formation to Charge after the heavy infantry formation of Kingdom of Shenhua. The dozens of beautiful young women on the six carriages opposite him had already made his blood boil, and he wished he could rush over and capture them all to his harem to ravage them.

Upon witnessing this scene, the King of other countries also began to get excited.

When faced with fifty [ Jebe ]-level sharpshooters, none of them were willing to be the first to step forward. However, when huge profits appeared before them, none of them wanted to fall behind others. They were all afraid of being robbed of the benefits by others and wanted to be the first to rush into Chambord City to plunder it to their heart's content, and incidentally take the beauties on the six carriages for themselves.

"Charge! Capture the King of Chambord City alive!"

"Kill them! Whatever you get is yours..."

"Hahaha, lads, see those little sluts on the carriage? Everyone gets one..."

At this moment, all the men in the allied forces were filled with fervor. Victory was within reach. Even the nobles and King who were usually high and mighty and elegant revealed their vulgarity and barbarity, spewing out all sorts of vulgar phrases to boost morale. Their faces were contorted with rage, like greedy demons crawling out of Hell.

"Capture that King! I'll make his head into a goblet!! Let the royal family of Chambord City vanish in flames!!" The Red Water Kingdom, having lost over a hundred spearmen and shieldmen, uttered this vicious curse.

Third update.
