Chapter 146: Blast You All Away

  "Today is the day when the Divine Mechanism Camp will show off its skills." Ye Chen looked at the thousand soldiers in front of him and said, "Do you have confidence?"

  Yes, yes!

  Thousands of generals and soldiers shouted in unison.

  "Alright, now follow me to the city wall to defend against the Haxi army, drive them back to their lair, protect this land and your loved ones!" Ye Chen said with a passionate voice.

  On the city wall of Blue Rain City, soldiers were packed tightly together. On the horizon outside the city, a rumbling sound was heard again, which was the galloping sound of thousands of horses and troops. Countless figures appeared in sight, Haicheng's army had arrived, a vast black mass that seemed to have no end.

  Tan Mu led tens of thousands of troops to stop three thousand meters outside the Blue Rain City again. He looked at the brave general on the city wall and said, "Brave General, what are my conditions? You open the city gate, I will let you go."

  "Damn it, old thief!" The brave general was so angry that his teeth ached.

  Ye Chen smiled faintly, his eyes fixed on Tan Mu three thousand meters away, saying: "Old man, you don't know shame. If you have the ability, come and attack the city if you dare. Chattering like a woman, I think it's better for you not to be a marshal, go home and embroider flowers instead."

  Hahaha!!!

  A group of soldiers on the city wall burst into loud laughter, their voices shaking the fields. Tan Mu was furious, his face pale with rage, and he gritted his teeth as he stared coldly at Ye Chen, saying: "Where did this little brat come from? When I catch you, I'll make you regret being born in this world."

  "Old man is right here, you've come all the way, don't have the ability to go back home and embroider flowers. Don't come out and lose face." Ye Chen said with a scornful tone.

  "Charge!" Tamu's chest heaved, his forehead bulged with veins, his right hand raised high as he gave the order, "Cavalry advance, infantry follow closely, take Blue Rain City for me at all costs!"

  Tan Mu originally wanted to pretend to attack today, just for show, waiting for the news from Ha Che Wang. If some elders can be sent, it would be easy to break into the city, but unexpectedly, he was infuriated by Ye Chen, his seven orifices smoking with rage, and he immediately became furious, determined to capture Ye Chen at all costs and torture him to death!

  Just as Ye Chen was speaking sarcastically to Tan Mu, he had already ordered someone to light the fuse of the explosives. At this moment, the wolf cavalry and light infantry had just moved, and suddenly there were continuous loud explosions. The screams of people and the howls of wolves filled the air.

  On the city wall, people only saw where Tamu's army was suddenly heard countless explosions, smoke and dust filled the sky, immediately followed by countless wolf cavalry and light infantry flying into the air, a large number of people were already bloody and blurred, some even turned to mush.

  "Boom! Boom! Boom!!"

  Bursts of flames kept erupting in Tanmu's army, with deafening explosions and countless wails and screams echoing through the sky.

  "What...what's going on?" General Xiong was stunned, unsure of why such a thing had suddenly happened. He looked at the soldiers, but each person's eyes were filled with confusion and shock.

  However, after the shock came a deep excitement. The Tanmu army had suffered such heavy losses that it was definitely severely wounded, and there was even less hope of attacking Blue Rain City again.

  The explosion lasted for a whole minute before gradually subsiding, and the place where Tanmu's army was located was filled with smoke and wailing. Ye Chen quietly watched, his eyesight allowing him to clearly see everything in that scene.

  In the army led by Tamu, the infantry suffered heavy casualties, with nearly two-thirds injured or killed. The wolf cavalry also suffered more than half casualties, but still had half of its combat effectiveness left. That is to say, there were still 700,000 to 800,000 intact wolf cavalrymen.

  Ye Chen shook his head, the time was too short, and the explosives prepared were still too few. If there were enough, the densely arranged hundreds of thousands of troops could have been completely blown up. Now only half of them were solved.

  "Take advantage of his illness and take his life. Is the brave general not prepared to lead heavy cavalry and light cavalry to kill the enemy?" Ye Chen laughed.

  "Of course." General Xiong's eyes flashed with a thick killing intent, and he turned to leave. Ye Chen called out to him, saying: "Take the 300 divine crossbowmen from my Divine Machine Battalion in the heavy cavalry, and take my 700 divine archers in the light cavalry. They will surely bring surprises to the general."

  "General Ye, you're not joking, are you? Bringing three hundred crossbowmen into the heavy cavalry? Can their crossbows penetrate the wolf riders' shields and armor?" General Xiao Yong looked at Ye Chen with a "are you an idiot?" expression.

  "The general just needs to bring him over, and everything will become clear at that time." Ye Chen said calmly.

  "Alright, I'll take them with me."

  Rumbling sound

  The city gate opened and the brave general led tens of thousands of heavy cavalrymen and fifty thousand light cavalrymen to charge towards the location of Tamu's army.

  "Marshal, the brave general is coming with a large army." A deputy general said in front of Tan Mu.

  "Gather the wolf cavalry, charge and kill, General Xiong is just looking for death, and let the infantry encircle from both wings. As long as the Blue Rain tribe's army that came this time is completely annihilated, then the defensive capabilities of Blue Rain City will definitely be greatly reduced." Tan Mu wiped his face with his hand, his face covered in black dust, looking a bit disheveled.

  "Damn it, what the hell just exploded?! It's absolutely infuriating! It must be those Blue Rain Tribe people playing tricks!" Tan Mu gritted his teeth. Looking at the endless corpses, tens of thousands of wolf cavalrymen lay slaughtered on the ground, their bodies mangled and bloody, his heart was bleeding.

  "General on the left, how many men have we lost?" Tan Mu asked in a low voice.

  "Returning to General Yuan, half of the wolf cavalry were killed or wounded, two-thirds of the light infantry were killed or wounded, and more than half of the other troops were also killed or wounded..."

  "Alright, no more talk! Gather all troops and detain every single person from the Blue Rain Clan who has arrived!"

  "Yes, Marshal!"

  Very quickly, the remaining 70,000 to 80,000 wolf cavalry rapidly gathered together, forming two large square arrays. The great wolves howled loudly, their eyes bursting with fierce light.

  "Charge forward!"

  "Kill!"

  Seventy-eight thousand wolf cavalry charged madly at the army led by General Xiaoyong.

  At this moment, the people on both sides were less than 1,500 meters apart. At this time, countless arrows shot through the sky from the light cavalry in the rear, dense and dense, bringing up countless sharp sonic booms.

  The brave general turned his head and saw that it was Ye Chen who led the 700 divine archers, and he suddenly became angry in his heart. At a distance of one or two thousand meters, they shot arrows, and whether they could shoot into the human body was an unknown number, let alone facing the thick shields and armor of the wolf cavalry.

  "Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!"

  Densely packed arrows tore through the sky, their speed several times faster than ordinary arrows. The wolf cavalry saw the hail of arrows shooting towards them and hastily raised the shields in their hands, forming a wall of shields that was tightly sealed together, completely protecting their bodies within.

  "Ding ding ding!!"

  Among countless cracking sounds, those arrows that filled the sky pierced through the wolf cavalry's thick four-part steel shields.

  "Bang! Bang! Bang!!"

  One after another, the wolf cavalry fell off the wolves' backs and soon the wolf cavalry's formation was thrown into chaos.

  Some wolf riders' faces turned pale with panic, they couldn't understand how these arrows could penetrate their thick shields and armor, it was simply unbelievable.

  In the distance, Tanmu rode on a tall Fire Wolf's back waiting for the two armies to clash, but they were still over 1,000 meters apart. Suddenly, someone from the Blue Rain tribe shot an arrow that pierced through the thick shields and armor despite the distance of over 2,000 meters. This shocked Tanmu's heart.

  Such strength requires a very powerful bow, and the person drawing the bow must also have great arm strength; otherwise, this strength will be exhausted with just one shot.

  The wolf cavalry was in disarray, and the brave general led the heavy cavalry to charge forward. Among the heavy cavalry, 300 crossbowmen had been waiting for the opportunity, occasionally jumping to the top of the heavy cavalry, and as soon as they shot, every arrow hit its mark, each one shooting at the unprotected throat and eyes of the wolf cavalry.

  "Pffft! Pffft! Pffft!"

  One after another, blood flowers burst forth, three hundred crossbowmen fired in unison ten rounds in a row, and three thousand wolf cavalry fell to the ground, leaving behind ferocious wolves that charged towards the Blue Rain tribe's army.

  "Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!"

  Divine archers, divine crossbowmen, every arrow feather is fatal. Those wolf beasts are strong in physique, but they are also pierced by arrows or crossbow bolts. On the chaotic battlefield, they can't exert their own advantages.

  With the divine archer and crossbowman, the wolf cavalry no longer dared to charge recklessly. They had to be on guard against the deadly arrows at all times, thus quickly falling into a disadvantage. Moreover, as more and more people fell under the hail of arrows and crossbow bolts, the number of wolf cavalry was rapidly dwindling.

  Tan Mu's facial muscles twitched violently as he bellowed, "Archers, prepare! All aim at the Blue Rain tribe's archers and crossbowmen, kill them!"

  "Hiss! Hiss!!"

  Arrows filled the sky, shooting towards the direction of the Blue Rain Tribe's army. The fearless general roared, "Protect the Divine Machine Battalion officers!"

  Ding dong, ding dong.

  Light cavalry and heavy cavalry formed a defensive wall, protecting the divine shooters and divine crossbowmen of the Divine Machinery Corps behind them.

  "Ding ding ding!"

  A hail of arrows fell from the sky, all blocked by shields. As soon as the first wave of arrows landed, a thousand soldiers from the Divine Machinery Battalion rose up from behind the heavy and light cavalry, firing a round of rapid shots in mid-air.

  "Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!"

  Arrows shot out in dense profusion, filling the air as they flew away.

  Pffft!!!

  On the other side of Tamuna, a large number of archers suddenly fell down.

  "Archers, continue firing and cover the retreat of the wolf cavalry and infantry! All troops, retreat immediately!" Tan Mu bellowed.

  The divine shooters of the Divine Machine Corps retreated quickly after a round of rapid shooting, hiding behind the heavy and light cavalry. At this time, the second wave of arrows from Tamuna's side poured down like a storm, and at the same time, the remaining 500,000 wolf riders and tens of thousands of infantrymen quickly withdrew from the battlefield.

  Tanmu fled, taking the remaining wolf cavalry and infantry with him. The army of 500,000 was left with only over 100,000 men after this battle.

  The brave general was about to lead the army in pursuit, but was stopped by Ye Chen. Once the wolf cavalry entered the forest, they would gain an advantage, and pursuing them might not be worth it. It's likely that Ha Chi King will not tolerate this and will soon send another large army to besiege Blue Rain City.

  Today's victory was all thanks to the power of explosives; otherwise it would have been a crushing defeat!
