Troops are being mobilized in Xining!
Such a commotion naturally couldn't be kept secret from the Net (a military organization). As the strategist Jia Xu received the news immediately and couldn't help but laugh.
"Haha, Li Anlan finally couldn't resist making a move!"
Upon seeing the intelligence in his hand, Jia Xu knew that it must be Li Anlan's imperial edict that had arrived; otherwise, Cai Yu would not have been able to mobilize so many troops.
Although he was a general, leading 30,000 troops was already his limit. More troops would require a tiger tally, and it seems the emperor has sent him one.
Yan Gang couldn't help but laugh, " Old Master Bai has been cooped up for days, wouldn't he go crazy hearing this good news!"
"Hahaha!"
Jia Xu burst into laughter, then handed Yan Gang a letter he had personally forged, saying with a smile, "The old man should already know this news. Before the battle, give him this letter of challenge from Cai Yu; it can increase your chances of victory!"
"A challenge?"
Yan Gang was completely baffled. The other side needed a period of time to prepare for war, so why had they sent a challenge so early?
He glanced at his strategist, who looked inscrutable, and couldn't help but twitch his lips. What kind of scheme was this? It wasn't even recorded in the " The Legacy of Wumu "!
Jia Xu looked into the distance; the enemy's forces were constantly gathering, and it seemed that a battle was imminent.
"You coward, you've finally shown your face!"
The Xining Army was preparing for battle, Bai Zizai naturally received the news. Instead of being surprised, he was delighted and couldn't help but burst into laughter, though his smile carried a hint of cruelty.
It's been a long time since I've killed anyone!
Bai Zizai's eyes were also flashing red, and he was in a state of excitement!
"Pass down the order: prepare the troops for battle!"
"This time, I, the general, will annihilate the Xining Army in one fell swoop!"
It's here!
Soon, 40,000 reinforcements from the Xining Army arrived, bringing with them various siege equipment, which excited Cai Yu, who had been eagerly awaiting their arrival.
With these weapons and equipment, plus his own 70,000 elite troops, he was now quite confident in defeating Bai Zizai.
But Bai Zizai, that old bastard, still thinks too highly of himself. He actually ignores the city walls of the Jushi Kingdom. Even though he has clearly seen the movements of the Xining Army, he is still arrogant. Instead of retreating into the city to defend against the city walls, he also reorganizes his troops and prepares to fight the Xining Army in the open field. This time, we will show you how powerful we are.
What White Asura! The name doesn't do him justice!
Cutting off his own arm, what a fool!
He took a deep breath and ordered, "Rest tonight, cook breakfast at midnight tomorrow, and then attack Xiliang!"
"Yes, sir!"
Dong Chengwu immediately became excited. The battle was finally about to begin, and if he won this battle, it would be a great achievement.
Whether you get promoted and make a fortune depends on this!
After a night's rest, the Xining Army was filled with fighting spirit, and the soldiers were all eager to try. There were many opportunities for meritorious service, and if they missed them, they would have to wait another ten years!
Seeing the fighting spirit in the soldiers' eyes, Cai Yu, brimming with confidence, shouted, "Brothers, this campaign against the bandits is His Majesty's decree! If we win, everyone will be promoted one rank; if we annihilate the enemy, everyone will be promoted two ranks! Those with outstanding achievements will be richly rewarded! Whoever cuts off Bai Zizai's head will surely be personally commended by His Majesty and bring glory to his ancestors!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!"
"Cut off Bai Zizai's dog head, achieve great deeds, and bring glory to your ancestors!"
"A true man should act like this! This is the perfect opportunity for us to achieve great things and bring glory to our family!"
The crowd could hardly contain their excitement; they couldn't wait to rush over and start fighting—these were all battle achievements!
This is the best opportunity to make a name for yourself; it would be foolish to miss it.
Who doesn't want a promotion and a fortune?
If one is fortunate enough to achieve outstanding military exploits, one might rise to prominence and be promoted directly from a common soldier to a general.
If, by some stroke of luck, Bai Zizai's head were to be severed, it would truly be a momentous occasion, a glorious achievement that would be legendary and incredibly exciting to even think about.
Meanwhile, the Asura Army was also preparing for battle, each soldier eyeing the Xining Army Xining Army with predatory intent, ready to unleash their fury upon them.
With the series of actions taken by the Xining Army, both sides have essentially revealed their intentions, clearly preparing for a life-or-death battle with no possibility of reconciliation.
Before dawn, the war drums of the Xining Army sounded, and the army marched out, shaking the earth. The commotion was impossible to hide, and Cai Yu had no intention of hiding it at all. Both sides were aware of the situation, so there was no need to consider any schemes or tricks.
The Asura Army was also prepared. As the horns sounded, the Asura Army silently assembled and moved forward like a black tide.
Bai Zizai spat out a mouthful of saliva. Finally, he could have a big fight. He was really driven crazy. Now, even if a stray dog passed by, he would want to rush up and slap it twice.
At this moment, someone from the Net) suddenly reported, "General, Cai Yu has sent a challenge, specifically requesting that you personally review it, and also saying..."
"What else is there to say?"
"This..."
"Explain!"
The man from Net hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "He also said that you, you old codger, can just wait to die where you are!"
"What!"
In an instant, the members of the Asura Army were all furious. How dare they humiliate the Great General? That was clearly an insult to the Asura Army!
"You old geezer!!"
Bai Zizai's brow twitched twice. He snatched the challenge letter, his eyes flashing with murderous intent, and opened it to take a look.
[ Asura villager, how dare you provoke the might of Xining! If you know what's good for you, kneel down and beg for mercy, or I'll turn your Asura Army into ghost soldiers!]
[The so-called Asura Army is a thing of the past. To oppose my Xining Divine Army is like throwing an egg against a rock. Considering how many years you've guarded the gates of Great Ning, I'll give you some face and send you to Xining as prisoners!]
[I'm taking your advanced age into consideration; you're practically a toothless bastard. If your entire army surrenders, I might spare your life!]
Bai Zizai's face turned green. What did he mean by a toothless turtle? This coward dared to talk back to him and even asked to spare his life. This was simply outrageous. He felt a burning rage rising in his chest, ready to burst forth.
He handed the letter to his men, and the Asura Army erupted in fury, their eyes practically glowing with rage, wishing they could tear Cai Yu apart alive.
Seeing this, the brothers of Net trembled with fear. The strategist's challenge was terrifying. No wonder it was said to increase their chances of winning. These people must have gone mad!
This is outrageous!
Bai Zizai roared, "Send down the order! The entire army is to meet the Xining Army in battle! This time, I'll tear them to shreds! Anyone who dares to retreat a single step will die a horrible death!!!"
"Kill!"
At that moment, everyone had only one thought: to kill that bastard Cai Yu.
I'm not fighting for a steamed bun, I'm fighting for my pride! I can't swallow this pride!
