“Kill!”
The shouts of killing that rushed up to the sky resounded through this side of the battlefield.
The unending army of the Hundred Tribes was coming in a ma*sive surge.
No matter how elite the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry led by Bai Qi was, it was still difficult to stop the onslaught in the face of the oceanic army of the Hundred Clans.
The huge disparity in numbers made it impossible for the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry to mount a charge.
All they could do was to hold their ground and strangle the Hundred Clans’ army as it rolled in.
Even so, the casualty rate of the Great Snow Dragon Riders was still horrific.
Rivers of blood and mountains of corpses were flowing.
Layer upon layer of corpses continued to build up beneath the feet of the Great Snow Dragon Riders, getting higher and higher, gradually forming a more defensible plateau.
The shouts and screams were incessant.
With two Dragon Rider swords in his hands, Bai Qi was like a god descending to kill, charging left and right through the tide of people, his blood already spattered all over his armour, rushing down his face, which was also stained with blood, his rugged face looking particularly hideous.
After quickly killing the enemy in front of him, Bai Qi immediately looked around.
As the commander-in-chief, in such a trapped situation, not only did he have to be personally involved in the killing, but he also had to keep an eye on the whole situation and dispatch his command.
“North side, support the north side!”
Seeing the Great Snow Dragon Riding Army in the north with heavy casualties, the faces of the Hundred Clans quickly multiplied, and Bai Qi rushed straight over with a loud roar.
The surrounding Great Snow Dragon Riding Army also responded quickly in support.
Those who could enter the Great Snow Dragon Rider army were all elites of the Four Directions army, with an extremely keen sense of battlefield.
It was clear to everyone that this was a battle to the death for the Great Snow Dragon Riders to hold back the 500,000-strong army and defend Zhenjiang City.
Life and death had already been put on the line.
The length of the delay was the main concern of these Great Snow Dragon Riders.
By occupying the corpse hill and relying on the high ground, they could delay for a longer period of time.
Once a corner of the defence was breached on Corpse Hill, an avalanche of defeat would follow.
“Kill back, kill back for me!”
“D*mn it! I’ll never let you come up here when I step on the bodies of my own brothers!”
“Ebony trash, I’ll die with you!”
……
One by one, the Great Snow Dragon Riders, like the most hungry and vicious of wolves, charged north with Bai Qi.
But the allied army of the Hundred Clans also took advantage of the moment to surge up in a steady stream.
The moment the close combat broke out, some of the Great Snow Dragon Riders hissed and threw away their Dragon Rider swords as they pounced into the allied army.
The next second.
Boom!
There was a huge sound.
A mushroom cloud of flame rose into the air.
A void was cleared from the crowd of the Hundred Clans’ allied army on the spot.
Boom!
Boom!
……
In quick succession, there were several more loud roars as the flaming mushroom cloud soared into the air.
The Hundred Allied Forces that had broken out onto the corpse mountain suffered heavy casualties, and the pressure on the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry led by Bai Qi to support them was immediately reduced.
Poof!
Bai Qi slashed over an allied army ronin and looked at the flaming mushroom cloud soaring into the air, his eyes had long since rippled, only he didn’t know whether it was blood or tears.
“Brothers, we can’t let the brothers in front of us die in vain, give me a ruthless kill!”
Bai Qi hissed, wielding his sword and lunging at the front once more.
“Kill!”
The Great Snow Dragon Riders behind them followed suit and charged together.
Two more explosions followed in quick succession, and the Allied Ranks that had rushed up from the north were finally completely cleared out.
But soon, Bai Qi led another charge towards the east.
Along with it, a mushroom cloud of flames rose to the sky with a hissing sound.
It was not just a handful of times that such a scene had been witnessed.
Rather, it had been going on since the initial killing.
Before the 10,000 dead soldiers left the city, all of them had heat weapons strapped to their bodies and detonated directly at the necessary moment, just so that they could take the pressure off the defences and stall for time even when they could cause widespread casualties.
A very cruel choice.
But in battle, cruelty is never carried out to the end!
Time pa*sed slowly.
Exhaustion, numbness, raged on.
This kind of intense and continuous battle was an indescribable test for every Great Snow Dragon Rider army.
Facing an army of half a million, the other side could alternate attacks, each time with Rongwu in peak condition, while the physical abilities of the Great Snow Dragon Riders were in this state, continuously depleted and continuously squeezed.
This also created a situation where the longer it took, the faster the Great Snow Dragon Riders would die.
But to Bai Qi’s credit, the intelligence said that the Hidden World in this army did not strike, and the allied forces did not use long-range weapons, but kept charging them with a sea of men.
But this was also something that Bai Qi had been wondering about in his mind from the beginning of the battle!
If the other side was heading straight for Zhenjiang City, then it should have been a quick battle.
But obviously the other side had no such intention!
The battlefield was unpredictable, and Bai Qi did not have much time to think about this perverse matter.
In the midst of the bloodbath, a sudden roar reached Bai Qi’s ears.
“Ah …… quickly divide your troops to the south, a large group of barbarians are coming up!”
Boom!
This roar caused Bai Qi to be struck by lightning.
His entire body froze in place.
Divide the troops?
That’s right, a division of troops!
In an instant, his eyes lit up with a sudden realization.
Although this possibility was extremely weak, it was indeed a possibility!
“Divide the troops within Zhenjiang City one at a time, causing the city’s defences to become weaker and weaker, and then kill them with a single strike!”
Bai Qi thought in his mind, but his gaze swept over the sea of people below, an unspeakable sense of despair came over him, “Although half a million people is too unbelievable in order to hold back 10,000 people, there is no shortage of people in the allied army of the Hundred Clans, the more they use such a formation, the more they can conceal it from the world …… ”
A thought.
Bai Qi looked back in the direction of Zhenjiang City in despair.
“Sovereign, it is not us who are holding back these allied troops, but the allied troops are holding us back and distracting your troops, can you detect that?”
The words just fell.
“Chief Whitewood beware!”
A loud shout rang out.
Bai Qi then felt a chill run down his back and turned around violently to see a Rongwu standing in front of him.
A cold light flashed and a human head flew up.
Bai Qi also vaguely saw the barbarians gnashing their teeth across the street from the still splattering blood of his Rongwu companion.
Had it not been for his companion, it would have been his head that had just been cut off by this blade!
“Ah!”
Bai Qi was furious and roared as he swung out with a blatant slash, directly cutting off the barbarian who was close at hand.
“Kill, kill for me!”
Even though he understood the intentions of the allied forces, Bai Qi still shouted and shouted to kill, but with a little more sadness and despair than before.
Even if he understood, the situation in front of him was not enough for the remaining Great Snow Dragon Riders to break out of the crowded allied army.
All he could do was to stay rooted here like a nail and delay this half-million strong army for a longer period of time.
Even if Zhenjiang City’s defences were empty to the extreme, half a million less people besieging it would be a solid half a million less!
