Rumble!
Twenty shells landed in the densest part of the enemy ranks, clearing the surrounding area in an instant. Fear spread, causing chaos among the Yamata Nation soldiers, who began trampling each other.
But the explosions didn't stop. The catapults launched the explosive charges, blasting some of the troops who had rushed to the front to pieces, leaving them completely terrified.
"Aaaaaah, what is that thing?! My arm has been blown off!"
"So many iron filings, in my eyes!"
"We can't charge any further. The enemy is too terrifying; we'll be torn to pieces."
Some of the Yamata Nation soldiers who were originally eager to make a name for themselves could no longer remember any merits; all that remained in their eyes was fear. This was too terrifying; one explosion and a whole area was blown up.
The terrifying explosion threw them off balance. They were armed with machetes, while the enemy was attacking with black weapons, coupled with a barrage of arrows. This completely demoralized them.
Compared to cannons, a samurai sword is practically a great-grandchild.
This isn't a charge, it's practically suicide!
Some cowards have already quietly retreated, too afraid to go any further. Let whoever is brave go up, this is too damn scary.
"Brothers, don't be afraid, kill..."
"Holy shit!"
Fengzhong Longzi was about to give a speech to boost morale when a cannonball landed beside him, instantly exploding into pieces. If it weren't for the protection of his guards, he would probably be dead by now.
Even so, he was still hit in the arm by shrapnel, and his hand burned with pain.
However, his guards were riddled with shrapnel, their deaths extremely gruesome.
Hearing the continuous bursts of explosions ahead, he felt lost for the first time. He had thought the enemy didn't have many of these weapons, but now they were coming in droves.
"Haha, now a bunch of cowardly Baozi know how powerful they are!"
"With such meager abilities, you dare to scheme against my Great Liang? Then go and repent in the underworld!"
Seeing the fear in the Yamata Nation soldiers, Sun Jian became excited. This was a perfect opportunity to strike a fatal blow against a defeated enemy, a golden chance for victory.
If he misses this opportunity, he wouldn't deserve to be called Sun Jian, the Tiger of Jiangdong!
He grabbed the longsword beside him, stood at the forefront of the army, and roared.
"Charge, brothers!"
"Our Great Liang is All Under Heaven, with its Formation-Breaking Camp, White Horse Volunteers, and Tiger and Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. Even that brat Gan Ning has created the Brocade Sail Battalion, yet our Jiangdong warriors remain unknown!"
"Are you willing to be ridiculed for the rest of your life, living under someone else's crotch?"
"If you don't want to, then follow me and tear the enemy in front of you to shreds!"
These are Sun Jian's true feelings!
The number of elite soldiers from Jiangdong in the military system of Great Liang was far too small. The only one who was famous was Gan Ning's Brocade Sail Battalion, which made Sun Jian very unhappy.
It's not dissatisfaction, but anger at their lack of ambition!
We're all men with eggs, so why are they famous All Under Heaven while we in Jiangdong are ignored? We're going to make Jiangdong famous and let the world know what a formidable force from Jiangdong is!
Upon hearing this, the army instantly went berserk, their eyes turning red.
Yeah, we're all men, so why are you guys so arrogant?
Kill the enemy!
Kill the enemy!!!!!
"A Jiangdong hero is one who wipes out all his enemies!"
"Tear apart the enemy ahead, and let the world know the might of Jiangdong!"
"Long live the Emperor! Today, the brave warriors of Jiangdong will slaughter the Yamata!"
At Sun Jian's roar, the 100,000 elite troops of Jiangdong went berserk, charging towards the enemy with frenzied energy, as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
These men under his command were originally the elite of Eastern Wu. After nearly a month of his training, and with the support of the powerful equipment of Great Liang, they were definitely a formidable force. They were also extremely knowledgeable about battle formations, making them true elites.
A powerful army is never afraid of having too many people; it's only afraid of not having enough.
Facing an army more than twice their size, the 100,000 elite troops of Eastern Wu did not retreat but instead advanced, charging straight ahead.
In the heavily Great Liang region, how could the Eastern Wu possibly stand out without a fight? It was simply a matter of killing the enemy; who was afraid of whom!
The shield bearers in front charged forward like madmen, their shields raised high. Their fearless attitude sent chills down Fengzhong Longzi's spine.
"Damn it, these people are insane!" Fengzhong Longzi, her expression changing drastically as she looked at the enemies with their bloodshot eyes.
Having experienced countless battlefields, how could he not know how terrifying this army's state of mind was? These people were insane. Let alone the Yamata soldiers blocking their way, even the people of Great Liang would be torn to shreds.
But with no way to retreat at this point, they have no choice but to fight.
He roared, "Brothers, kill them! Kill these people, and you'll be promoted and made rich!"
kill!
The two sides drew closer and closer until they collided head-on. In this bloody battle, the difference in strength between them became immediately apparent.
Under the steel torrent of the Great Liang, the soldiers of the Yamata Nation, wielding samurai swords and dressed in samurai attire, became lambs to the slaughter, torn apart without mercy.
The formation of 200,000 troops was torn apart in an instant, allowing 100,000 troops to charge forward.
Faced with the fully armed and frenzied Great Liang troops of the Jiangdong region, this elite force of the Yamata Nation was completely routed, with many areas even experiencing rout and flight.
However, Sun Jian, blinded by rage, would not let them go and immediately ordered a pursuit.
"Shooting!"
Once the arrow formation is activated, good fortune will naturally follow.
Arrows rained down from the sky like locusts, completely enveloping the entire sky as they poured down on the Yamata Nation soldiers.
In an instant, under the powerful output of the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow and the Ma Jun Divine Crossbow, a rain of arrows shot out, instantly falling into the hands of the Yamata Nation Army. These primitive warriors were practically sitting ducks under the crossbow bolts.
Puff puff puff!
The arrows landed among the Yamata Nation army, instantly taking away a large number of Yamata Nation soldiers.
"This is terrible!"
This scene made Fengzhong Longzi's face darken. The situation was very bad; if things continued like this, they might suffer a complete defeat.
But he knew in his heart that he could not fail, otherwise everything would be over.
Once this main force of the Great Liang forces invades Iai Island, the Emperor will inevitably be in danger, and then the Yamata Nation will be completely destroyed. Therefore, I must fight with my life on the line.
He gritted his teeth, personally taking the lead, and roared, "Follow me and charge! We have two hundred thousand men, how can we be slaughtered by one hundred thousand!"
kill!
With a loud shout, Fengzhong Longzi charged straight at Sun Jian. Once he killed him, they could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"You scoundrel, prepare to die!"
"Haha, they're after me!"
Sun Jian laughed loudly, carrying his Mo Dao (a type of long-handled sword), and headed straight for Fengzhong Longzi, shouting, "While I was killing people, you were still playing with chicken droppings! Die, you bastard!"
The Tiger of Jiangdong is no pushover; it's a killer!
