Grass!

Adorno watched as the other party acted so arrogantly, frantically slaughtering his men, clearly not taking him seriously at all.

With a determined look, he went straight to meet them.

I am the commander of the Judgment Legion, a powerful figure in the Moses Empire. How could I fear war? Then bring it on!

"Kill!"

Adorno roared, grabbed a spear from the side, and charged straight at Meng Huo.

Meng Huo, who had also witnessed his actions, sneered, "Hmph, you've got guts, kid. Today I'll grant you death!"

Bang!

A soldier from the Judgment Legion standing nearby was instantly killed by the blow. Without pausing, he headed straight for Adorno.

Although I don't know what the other person is babbling about, it's definitely not anything nice. I'm going to tear their mouth apart.

"Let's fight!"

Adorno roared and charged forward with his spear in hand.

Their eyes met, sparks flew, and their gazes were filled with murderous intent; they were determined to kill each other.

clang!

The two collided, and Adorno's pupils constricted as he felt a tremendous force, sending him flying.

Dog for sale!

He felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, and he crashed to the ground. Then he felt as if his entire hand was useless, trembling violently.

He glanced in fear at Meng Huo on his warhorse, then at the crescent-shaped spear in his hand, and his lips twitched involuntarily.

That bastard has incredible strength; he almost beat me to death!

"Boss, how is it?" Seeing that something was wrong, the guards quickly protected him, fearing that Meng Huo would smash him to death with a hammer.

Adorno gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "Retreat quickly! Enemy reinforcements are here. If we don't leave now, it will be too late!"

If we can fight our way through, that's fine, but if we can't, then retreat is the only option.

If we were blocked here by the person in front of us, the consequences would be unimaginable. We would probably have no way to run away, and that would be the most terrifying thing.

Not all of our people came; this small force is no match for the enemy, and staying here is just waiting to die.

The only option now is to run away first.

Several trusted confidants frowned slightly upon hearing this. They wanted to reverse the situation, but with the enemy numbers increasing, it became a problem, and they had to retreat.

With gritted teeth, the group immediately issued a retreat order. The assassination attempt by the Judgment Legion failed, and the members perished midway. Now, an emergency retreat was the only option.

"Hmph, you think you can run away!"

Meng Huo snorted coldly, his eyes flashing with an even more ferocious aura, and then he spurred his horse to give chase.

If I don't kill these people, I'll lose all face as the Commandant of Shannan. That would be incredibly shameful, so I absolutely cannot let the enemy escape.

"Kill!"

A large group of soldiers from Shannan gave chase. Now that the enemy had been repelled, they decided to take advantage of the situation and wipe them out completely.

At this moment, the advantage of warhorses became apparent, and more than 10,000 people gave chase.

The army pursued them to the coastal region, where they were immediately confronted by the full-scale Judgment Legion, whose three thousand men were on high alert, awaiting the arrival of the Great Liang Empire's army.

It wasn't that they didn't want to escape, but rather that their escape route had been blocked, Gan Ning's soldiers had already caught up.

Adorno looked solemnly at Meng Huo ahead and said in a deep voice, "Gentlemen, we have no way out now, so let us face our deaths with equanimity!"

Even if it means death, we cannot betray the dignity of my Judgment Legion! Let us kill the enemy before us!

kill!

The three thousand Judgment Legion are fearless in the face of death. They may have fear, but they will never be afraid. This is something they have been forged in the crucible of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

Tear!

Adorno tore open his clothes and tightly bound his right hand, which had been broken earlier, so he quickly bandaged it.

kill!!

The three thousand Judgment Legion instantly formed ranks and charged without hesitation toward an enemy three times their size.

It's either you die or I die!

A cold glint flashed in Meng Huo's eyes, and he said disdainfully, "Your courage is commendable, but it's like a mayfly trying to shake a tree. You'll die here today."

Although we don't know what their purpose is, since they dared to attack the soldiers of Great Liang, it's a dead end for them; there's no other way.

"Kill!"

He roared, and the crossbows behind him instantly unleashed a volley of fire, engulfing the three thousand men.

Boom!

Faced with a dense barrage of arrows, Adorno's eyes grew serious. He immediately changed formation, using his shields to block vital points.

Ding ding ding!

The rain of arrows fell, and although most were deflected, the falling arrows still caused considerable casualties, with at least three hundred people dying under the arrow barrage.

Although the others survived, many suffered severe injuries, and the small shield couldn't protect them all.

Even so, they showed no fear and continued to charge forward, their spears shooting out like javelins with lightning speed.

In an instant, thousands of spears shot out, causing Meng Huo's expression to change drastically. These things were far more powerful than bows and arrows.

"Block the vital points, archers, continue the attack!"

He noticed that his opponent only had two spears. After shooting one out, he would only have one left in his hand. If he threw it out, he would be powerless to fight back.

In an instant, the Great Liang army changed formation, with a large group of rattan armor soldiers blocking the front, while the archers began their frantic attack.

The moment they threw their spears was undoubtedly their biggest vulnerability.

Puff puff puff!

The spears pierced the rattan armor soldiers, producing muffled groans. Although they didn't completely penetrate the specially made rattan armor, they still injured them.

This made Meng Huo's face turn ugly immediately. He gritted his teeth and said, "Men, bring me the Divine Arm Bow and shoot them dead!"

"Shoot!"

In an instant, hundreds of Divine Arm Bow fired simultaneously, and the arrows shot through the air like meteors.

Seeing this, Adorno prepared to use the same trick again, but as soon as he raised his shield, he realized something was wrong. An arrow that was flashing with an eerie light had pierced through the shield.

Pfft!

The shield pierced his left shoulder, instantly causing him to break out in a cold sweat and nearly faint.

Ahhh!

Screams echoed all around. The shields that had previously been able to block the arrows from the Great Liang army were now being torn apart by the Divine Arm Bow, and the soldiers hiding behind them were shot right through them.

Adorno's face turned extremely grim. He gritted his teeth and said, "How is this possible? It's even more powerful than a spear throw! What kind of monsters are the Great Liang here?!"

If such a terrifying army is stationed in this remote border region, then the regular army of the Great Liang must be even more terrifying. This is a huge problem.
