Boom!
The shell landed in front of Takayama Ichizawa and exploded instantly. A violent force was unleashed, tearing apart the shield in front of Takayama Ichizawa and blasting him away.
The brutal shrapnel shot out from the shell, instantly transforming into the most terrifying weapon in the world, clearing away the surrounding area and leaving nearly fifty people lying on the spot.
The most recent victims were even torn to pieces; the scene was extremely bloody and brutal.
"Pfft!"
"Ah, what is this?"
The Yamata Army was originally waiting to slaughter their way through, but when they saw the cleared territory, they were so frightened that they stopped and hid far away.
This is absolutely terrifying! A huge number of people were lying on the ground, and none of the bodies were even intact. It's just too horrifying.
" Lord Takayama?"
Fengzhong Longzi constricted, startled by the sudden scene. He had been standing not far from the edge of Takayama Ichizawa, yet he had felt the wave of heat wash over him. What on earth was that?
He said in a deep voice, "Quickly, find Lord Takayama."
No one dared to delay and quickly began searching. Soon, someone found Takayama Ichizawa's body, but his eyes were filled with fear, and he seemed hesitant to speak.
"General Zuo, we've found it, but..."
"But what?"
"That's terrifying!"
"Horrible?"
Fengzhong Longzi frowned slightly and followed his subordinates to Takayama Ichizawa's corpse. Upon seeing the man's gruesome state, he couldn't help but gasp.
What happened? This is just too tragic!
Takayama Ichizawa was completely unrecognizable, his body was charred as if burned, and there were holes all over his body. He was no longer recognizable.
The crucial point is that even his arms and legs were gone, clearly torn apart by the explosion, leaving him with no complete corpse.
Grunt!
He swallowed hard. This was just too outrageous, absolutely absurd!
There was absolutely no trace of the body!
He found it hard to imagine what kind of power could destroy a person's corpse like that in an instant, which sent chills down his spine.
If I were hit like that, I'd probably be torn to pieces.
After examining Takayama Ichizawa's corpse, Fengzhong Longzi's confidant couldn't help but exclaim in terror, "General Zuo, Lord Takayama's bones are completely pulverized, as if crushed by a stone roller. The enemy's weapon..."
"What a terrifying thing! What is it?"
Fengzhong Longzi's face was very ugly. He looked at the opposing Great Liang camp. This unknown weapon made him feel unprecedented pressure.
That thing could kill Takayama Ichizawa, so it could certainly kill me.
"General Zuo, what do we do now?" the lieutenant asked in a low voice, somewhat fearful.
Fengzhong Longzi took a deep breath, suppressing her inner fear. Now was not the time for fear and dread; the enemy had to be destroyed for the Yamata Nation to have any hope.
"Keep killing!"
"The enemy hasn't used this weapon on a large scale, which means they must not have many of them. Our forces outnumber theirs by two to one; this isn't something that can be reversed by weapons alone."
"Pass down the order: whoever takes the head of the enemy general Sun Jian will be promoted three ranks and awarded ten thousand taels of gold!"
"Kill them!"
Courage is a power, but real money can double it.
The moment the reward was announced, the Yamata army erupted in excitement, charging forward like mad dogs, fearless of death.
kill!
For money, for a promotion, they'd do anything!
Spurred on by this, the Yamata Army charged forward like mad dogs, running wildly through the rain of arrows from Great Liang, heading straight for the enemy camp.
The Great Liang army showed no sign of yielding, and the battlefield instantly erupted into flames.
When two armies meet on a narrow path, the brave will prevail. Let's settle this here!
The Great Liang faction!
Seeing that the other party was not frightened, but instead rushed over, Sun Jian was not surprised but laughed out loud.
He exclaimed in admiration, "Haha, this Fengzhong Longzi is quite the man. Facing such a terrifying thing, he wasn't scared at all; his courage is truly commendable!"
The power of that Red-Coat Cannon was terrifying even to him; this guy actually dared to go for it—he's really stubborn.
However, it's only meaningful to kill an opponent like this. The previous enemies were all without any fighting spirit, and killing them didn't give me any sense of accomplishment. This Fengzhong Longzi is a good choice.
This guy is probably a genius of the Yamata Nation. If we kill him, the Yamata Nation will suffer a huge loss!
"General, the enemy has an army of 200,000!" The adjutant rolled his eyes. The general was getting carried away. He couldn't help but whisper a reminder.
"Snort!"
Sun Jian glanced at him and said boldly, "If numbers guaranteed victory, the Yellow Turban Army wouldn't have failed. An army is never about numbers, but about an iron will!"
The Yellow Turbans Rebellion originally involved more than a million troops, yet it was ultimately suppressed by a declining dynasty, demonstrating that their numbers were relatively small.
In the face of a truly powerful army, numerical superiority is useless; it's just a matter of having more heads.
The soldier's will!
Weapons and equipment!
And battle formations!
These are all factors that can determine the outcome of a battle, and right now all of these are on the side of Great Liang. The Yamata Nation only has an advantage in numbers.
As for weaponry and equipment, the difference between the Great Liang and the Great Liang is not just a little bit; it's practically on a different level.
Since we're going to fight, let's fight it out!
Full power!
Before they set off, Heavenly Craft Workshop gave each of them nearly twenty Red-Coat Cannon.
Although this weapon is a one-time use item, it's enough to dominate the entire battlefield. Combined with a large number of explosive charges, taking down these 200,000 people shouldn't be too difficult.
The reason we didn't use it before was because the enemy wasn't strong enough. Now that we're about to have a decisive battle, we can't afford to be stingy anymore!
Once we eliminate this army of 200,000, along with the gains from the other routes, the Yamata Nation will be essentially crippled. We won't need any Red-Coat Cannon; we'll just need to take over.
With a wave of his hand, Sun Jian was instantly filled with boundless pride.
"Keep bombing!"
"After annihilating this enemy army of 200,000, we'll celebrate our victory on Iai Island, the Yamata Nation. I'll treat you to a whole fish feast!"
Ha ha!
Everyone's lips twitched. They were stationed on the Min River and had been eating fish every day lately, so they had absolutely no interest in any kind of all-fish feast.
But with victories to be made, how can we afford to stand still!
"Fire!"
With a roar, the twenty massive Red-Coat Cannon unleashed an epoch-making roar that silenced the entire battlefield.
Because this was a one-time use cannon, Ma Jun simply increased its power and accuracy, making it even more terrifying and unparalleled than before, which erupted at this moment.
