Chapter 31 The World's Most Influential Figures
Chapter 31 The World's Most Influential Figures
While Su Ye and Yao Guangxiao were secretly plotting the Taiping Rebellion...
The entire Tianwu Continent was thrown into turmoil by the Battle of Taiping Pass.
Helian Yue's army died just like that?
He died at Taiping Pass in a manner that was instantly killed.
You should know that Helian Yuejun is the second-ranked war god on the list of foreign generals.
He has fought countless times with the top figures on the World's Power Rankings, and most of the matches ended in a draw.
This time, the Vermilion Bird was able to kill Helian Yue's army with a single arrow.
Does that mean that the Vermilion Bird could also kill most of the people on the World's Glory Ranking with a single arrow?
Even the older generation of war gods had a complicated expression after learning that Suzaku used the Phoenix Arrow.
"After decades, has that unparalleled phoenix arrow finally reappeared on the battlefield?"
Moreover, it was announced in such an extraordinary way that its birth was declared.
The nightmare that the God of War dreamed of decades ago has once again shaken the hearts of everyone in the world.
Meanwhile, the experts and the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, who were responsible for ranking the world's heroes on the Tianwu Continent, were in complete chaos. The positions of the Heavenly Gods and Generals had shifted, and the original destined Heavenly Gods and Generals of the world were all in disarray.
Therefore, the experts and Tianji Pavilion had to rush to produce a new list of the most influential figures in the world.
Fourth place on the World's Heroic Ranking: The White Tiger, Who Makes All Beasts Repel It
His record on the list: He single-handedly overwhelmed Helian Yue's army, which was ranked second on the list of foreign generals, at Taiping Pass. Since he has not fought against the top three war gods on the list, he is temporarily ranked fourth.
Seventh on the World's Heroic Ranking: Blazing Radiance - Vermilion Bird
Record of ranking: In front of Taiping Pass, a crimson Vermilion Bird shot through the battlefield and killed Helian Yue's army, who was ranked second among the foreign generals. However, because Helian Yue's army had been suppressed by the White Tiger and he was the successor of the Phoenix Arrow, he was ranked seventh.
The emergence of a new ranking list caused an instant uproar. Two people squeezed into the long-unchanged ranking list, and they even climbed up by stepping over the corpse of Helian Yuejun, who was ranked second on the list of foreign generals.
As a result, the Yunwang Mansion and the Jiuxiao Army behind these two people also received extra attention.
...
At this time, within the territory of Cangzhou.
The "more than ten" elite squads of alien races that Yao Guangxiao mentioned were heading towards the location of Chang Ke's army under the arrangement of the Luo Wang.
The sun had just risen above the horizon, its warm rays bathing the earth, and all things began to awaken.
At this moment, the alien army and Chang Ke's army met by chance on an open plain.
Chang Ke's army of tens of thousands was a formidable force, with iron cavalry stretching as far as the eye could see, seemingly without end.
The soldiers, clad in various armors and wielding a variety of weapons, mingled the sounds of horses' hooves and the soldiers' shouts, creating a breathtaking war song.
Chang Ke and Ji Shunfu, the fourth-ranked war god among the alien races, were both on horseback, looking up at each other from afar, speechless with emotion.
Chang Ke hadn't expected that news of the fall of Taiping Pass hadn't yet arrived.
As a result, he unexpectedly encountered foreign troops while marching within Cangzhou territory, something Ji Shunfu had not anticipated either.
He came in to cause trouble, and ended up running right into the support army from Cangzhou.
Logically speaking, the Cangzhou army was one thing, since they were still within Cangzhou territory, and even the spies they sent out hadn't gone too far.
However, Ji Shunfu's foreign army was deep in enemy territory and had sent out countless spies. It was impossible that they hadn't discovered the large army from Cangzhou in front of them.
However, the fact is that spies from both sides have encountered the Luo Wang (Net of Heaven), and the rest is self-evident.
The Cangzhou army marched normally along the originally planned route, while Ji Shunfu's foreign army lost contact with their scouts.
It's impossible to suddenly change course and go in a different direction.
Thus, the barbarian army, gritting its teeth and continuing its march, unexpectedly encountered the Cangzhou army on this vast plain.
"You audacious barbarian race, how dare you invade my Cangzhou!"
"Nian Deli, lead your cavalry and leave them behind!"
Although he was stunned for a moment, Chang Ke quickly recovered.
Damn it, a mere few thousand people dare to block my Cangzhou army of tens of thousands!
This is clearly a case of not treating me, Chang Ke, the governor of Cangzhou, as a human being.
Can this be tolerated?
"kill!"
Now that things have come to this point, turning around and running away is definitely not an option.
Not to mention that the two sides were too close, retreating at this point and leaving their backs exposed would be a disaster.
Given the terrain of Cangzhou alone, Ji Shunfu did not believe that his foreign cavalry was as familiar with the land as the Cangzhou Iron Cavalry.
Therefore, at least a fierce battle must be fought to render the cavalry of the Cangzhou army incapable of pursuing.
On this open plain, the two cavalry armies officially clashed.
Sunlight pierced through the thick dust of battle, casting shadows of swords and horses, creating a breathtaking scene.
The cavalry of Cangzhou and the cavalry of the foreign tribes were numerous, like two giant dragons writhing on the battlefield.
They rode swift warhorses, their hooves kicking up clouds of dust.
The cavalrymen, clad in light armor and wielding spears or scimitars, were a formidable force.
At the command of Ji Shunfu and Nian Deli, the cavalry of both armies charged towards each other like tigers descending a mountain.
The thunderous sound of hooves and the clash of spears and scimitars in the air produced a sharp metallic clang.
In this fierce battle, the cavalry on both sides displayed astonishing horsemanship and courage.
Sometimes he charged into battle on horseback, sometimes he swung his sword to kill, and sometimes he dodged enemy attacks.
The horses constantly changed formation during the charge, sometimes as dense as an iron wall, sometimes as scattered as loose sand.
The entire battlefield was filled with bloodshed and smoke.
In this cavalry battle, the outcome was uncertain.
Sometimes one side may temporarily gain the upper hand, but the other side will quickly retaliate.
"Break them down!"
Chang Ke, the governor of Cangzhou, also joined the melee under Lian Er's kind protection.
For Chang Ke, this was a hard-won opportunity to lead troops, so he naturally had to perform well in front of this large army.
He hoped to bring these tens of thousands of Cangzhou troops under his control, so that he could establish a firm foothold in Cangzhou.
However, neither side in the battle noticed this at the time.
Several masked men in black, dressed in the leather armor of a foreign race, silently approached Chang Ke's direction.
In a corner of the chaotic battlefield, a figure as swift as the wind darted through the crowd.
He was an assassin wielding two swords; he was agile and nimble, like a cheetah galloping across the grasslands.
His twin swords flashed like lightning in the sunlight, each swing accompanied by a chilling gust of wind. His movements were light yet powerful, each assassination a precise surgical strike that instantly crushed his enemies.
His gaze was sharp as an eagle's, fixed on Chang Ke, who was being protected by Lian'er's kindness, searching for any weakness in his target.
