Chapter 209 The War Begins, Star General!
If it weren't for the fact that the number of people is still relatively small.
Zhang Tianxuan went bankrupt long ago!
Now he's so powerful that even a mouse has to give him two copper coins.
They're so poor they're practically pawning their pants.
At the same time, Zhu Yuanzhang also sent his trusted general Chang Yuchun and a group of trusted soldiers to join Zhang Tianxuan's Tiangang Army on the expedition.
The two teams met outside the camp, and for a moment, banners covered the sun, warhorses neighed, and their momentum was overwhelming.
The soldiers stood in neat rows, awaiting the order to march.
His face was filled with determination and resolve, as if he were ready to sacrifice himself at any moment.
The warhorse trotted its hooves nervously, as if it too sensed the impending battle.
Zhang Tianxuan and Zhu Yuanzhang stood side by side, their gazes sweeping across the faces of the soldiers, their hearts filled with lofty ambitions.
On the eve of the expedition, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Tianxuan met again.
The two raised their glasses and drank together, seemingly wanting to wipe the slate clean of past grievances.
"The world, in this expedition, we must work together to overcome these difficult times."
Zhu Yuanzhang said in a sincere tone.
The two looked at each other and smiled, and the barriers between them seemed to vanish in that moment.
As the order to march was given, the soldiers shouted in unison, their voices shaking the heavens and the earth.
They brandished their weapons and marched forward with firm steps.
His footsteps were firm and powerful, as if each step was aimed at the enemy's heart.
The warhorses reared up and let out a deafening neigh, as if announcing their arrival to the enemy.
At this time, Kaizhou, in the north of Daxuan, was only a hair's breadth away from Baizhou, the northernmost part of Daxuan, where Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Tianxuan were located.
Yang Su's large army of the Great Xuan Dynasty has also been stationed here.
Along with the Crimson Phoenix General Peng Fengjun, who was advancing from the side.
After the two armies met in Kaizhou, they immediately began a comprehensive deployment and preparation.
They formed a pincer movement, completely surrounding Baizhou, as if a giant iron fist had gripped the enemy's heart.
We are just waiting for the order.
It will sweep towards Baizhou like a tiger descending the mountain!
...
On the desolate battlefield at the border of Baizhou and Kaizhou, dark clouds hung low, seemingly about to crush this vast land.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Tianxuan, the two current leaders of the Yellow Turban Army, stood proudly on the hill, gazing at the overwhelming army formation before them.
Behind them stood the Ming army of Hongwu, their armor gleaming, their swords and spears like a forest.
The military flags fluttered in the wind, exuding an air of unparalleled arrogance.
Generals such as Chang Mao and Gu Yilong led their elite troops and lined up in battle formation.
The five vanguard cavalry, like a sharp knife on the flank, were ready to tear apart the weak points of the enemy formation at any time.
Behind them, tens of thousands of elite Yellow Turban soldiers, hastily assembled, stretched for miles.
Although their clothes were disheveled, their eyes burned with an indomitable fighting spirit and a desire to change their fate.
On the opposite side, the two armies sent by the Great Xuan Dynasty, led by Yang Su and Peng Fengjun, also had a formidable presence.
Their military bearing was impeccable, their ranks perfectly aligned, resembling a sophisticated war machine, each step they took exuding a cold and orderly demeanor.
Between the two armies, there was a deathly silence, with only the occasional neighing of warhorses echoing across the empty plains.
"Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Tianxuan, you two are traitors in this chaotic world, plotting to harm the people, and your crimes are unforgivable."
"Why not dismount and surrender today? When will you ever get another chance?"
Yang Su, clad in golden armor, rode out on horseback, his booming voice carrying far and wide with the aid of his inner strength.
"Yang Su, you are nothing but lackeys of the Great Xuan Dynasty. We, the Yellow Turbans, rose up to seek justice for the people of the world."
"How can you expect us to surrender with just a few words from you lackeys?"
Zhu Yuanzhang sneered and retorted without backing down.
"That's right, Yang Su, Peng Fengjun, you see clearly, every single one of these tens of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers is a true hero."
"Today's battle is a fight to the death!"
Zhang Tianxuan, who was standing next to Zhu Yuanzhang, also chimed in.
"Hmph, how arrogant!"
Yang Su's face darkened, but he didn't expect that talking would have any effect, so he waved his hand.
The two armies behind them surged forward like a tidal wave, launching an overwhelming charge towards the Yellow Turban Army.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Tianxuan exchanged a glance, both seeing the determination in each other's eyes.
"Brothers, follow me and kill them!"
Then, the two of them simultaneously drew their weapons and shouted.
"Ding! Zhu Yuanzhang's skill Hongwu has been activated!"
Hongwu: The earth bears witness to the sun and moon, the imperial glory shines brightly for ten thousand years! This is the exclusive skill of Emperor Hongwu (Zhu Yuanzhang), the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
Effect 1: When personally leading troops into battle, Command +3, and the attack power, defense power, morale, speed, etc. of the entire army are greatly increased.
Effect 2: When commanding a general into battle, this effect increases their personal attack power by 2 points, and can be applied to up to three generals simultaneously. Note: This effect is halved when the general is affected by an army-wide attack power amplification skill.
Effect 3: When personally present on the battlefield, the entire army's attack power increases by 2; when personally leading the battle, the entire army's attack power increases by another 1.
Effect 4: When you become king, three random attributes will be permanently increased by 1; when you become emperor, three random attributes will be permanently increased by 1.
Zhu Yuanzhang's current base leadership is 100. With the Hongwu skill effect granting +3 leadership, Zhu Yuanzhang's current leadership value has increased to 103!
As Zhu Yuanzhang led his army into battle alone.
His Hongwu skills also began to play a significant role.
"Ding! Zhang Tianxuan's skill 'Starry Sky' activated!"
Stars: Leading the stars as divine commanders, with the stars of the heavens as my generals, the stars assist me in being born saints, controlling the fate of all stars, this is Zhang Tianxuan's exclusive skill.
Effect 1: With the help of many stars and the connection of all stars, one's own magic can be shared with subordinates to obtain magic (this effect can only be obtained by those who possess star-type skills; if one is not a star-type skill owner, one can only obtain half of the magic).
Effect 2: Kill, Break, Wolf, is the star of destiny. With its help, the star lord can ignore the constellation restrictions of three subordinates who possess star-type skills and force them to activate the combo skill Kill, Break, Wolf (when there are 14 subordinates, the combo skill All Stars Descend can be activated, but the combo skill cannot provide a leadership bonus to the user).
Effect 3: Lord of all stars. With the help of all stars, he will surely unify the world. During the day, with the help of the Yang star, his leadership will increase by 2. At night, with the help of the stars, his leadership will increase by 3. When the rare event of the sun and moon appearing together occurs, he will receive the help of all stars and his leadership will increase by 5!
Effect 4: Wanxing can destroy the person and eliminate all enemies on the road to unification. When you first establish your own power and launch a war, the strength of the entire army will increase by 1. When your own power has been established for more than five years, the strength of the entire army will increase by 2. When your own power unifies one-third of a region, the strength of the entire army will increase by 3.
Effect 5: With the assistance of all the stars, favored by the fourteen main stars, the commander of all stars, he is immune to all negative effects due to the favor of the fourteen main stars. When encountering a sealing skill, he can break the seal by reducing his intelligence and politics by 2 for one month (when he is the commander of all stars, his luck is slightly increased, making him more difficult to kill in battle)".
