Nine Yang Alchemy Emperor
Chapter 719 - 729: Killing You is Like Slaughtering a Dog
CHAPTER 719: CHAPTER 729: KILLING YOU IS LIKE SLAUGHTERING A DOG
Large swaths of the enemy army, like swarms of locusts, quickly surged towards the moat outside King City.
They began constructing pontoon bridges, or filling the moat with logs, sandbags, and other materials. With hundreds of thousands attacking the city, the scene was truly terrifying.
In the blink of an eye, the ten-meter-wide moat was filled level.
The Great Ma Empire, when attacking other nations’ cities, favored using the human wave tactic.
Because the Great Marshal of the Great Ma Empire was a disciple of Ma Quanzi. He hadn’t undergone professional military training, having only briefly perused some military texts.
What was Ma Quanzi’s profession?
He was a legitimate Pill Master, and naturally, his disciples were also into Alchemy.
Letting someone who practiced Alchemy command the army in battle, their consistent victories relied on a strong team dispatched by Panlong Heavenly Emperor. Though there were only eleven of them, it was equivalent to an entire army.
But these eleven individuals were all of Sword God Level.
In Dan State, Sword Saints could already roam unhindered. Being at the Sword God Level, one was absolutely regarded as a Divine Soul.
In the past, the Ten Thousand Sword Sect was the top Sect in the Northern Territory of Dan State, a hegemon.
With such a superpower, just having One-star Sword God Cultivation was enough to be a Supreme Elder. It shows how rare the Sword God Level was in Dan State.
At this moment, the Great Ma Empire’s side held an absolute advantage, those eleven Sword God Level strong individuals probably wouldn’t make an appearance.
Such beings, after all, had some dignity and cared for their reputation.
Using Sword God Cultivation to bully common folk was too demeaning.
"What are you Northern Beixie Empire’s troops doing, just standing there? Are you here just to eat? Charge for your Marshal!"
A coarse shout rang out.
On a three-meter-high commander’s platform, a middle-aged man with piercing eyes, a tall stature, dressed in golden armor and a red battle robe, sat high on the platform with eight flag bearers standing by his side.
On the battlefield, the cries of battle were earth-shaking. Commanding the troops and engaging with the enemy depended on flag signals.
A commander’s platform is usually a movable high platform, like a chariot, equipped with wheels.
And it’s at least two meters tall.
Usually built up to three meters.
This height allowed the commanding officers to have a clear view.
Flag signals are a profound knowledge and quite complicated.
Ordinary soldiers only know a little, but every officer must master flag signals.
In battle, capturing the enemy’s commander’s platform and seizing their flags usually means victory. At the very least, it can render the enemy leaderless and disorganized.
"Who is that pig-like thing?" Chu Feng contemptuously glanced at the middle-aged man on the commander’s platform.
He asked the Great General beside him.
"That is the third disciple of the Great Ma Emperor, named Ma Youhun, who is said to be somewhat blood-related to the Great Ma Emperor. However, it’s several generations apart,"
"This person doesn’t have much skill, but is highly appreciated by the Great Ma Emperor. He knows nothing about military strategy or troop deployment, yet he’s been appointed as the Great Marshal of the Great Ma Empire, claiming control over a five-million-man army. In routine battles and sieges, he loves using ten or twenty times the enemy forces, relying on human wave tactics to win,"
A Great General respectfully replied.
To avoid revealing his identity, Chu Feng deliberately wore a silver mask.
This trick, he learned from the little girl Han Shuang.
Everyone thought Han Shuang was an ugly monster, but only a few who had seen her true face knew that not only was she not ugly, she was instead as beautiful as a heavenly fairy, even more gorgeous than a fairy.
Before taking down Ma Quanzi, it’s best not to startle the grass and scare the snake.
To prevent that rebel from being on guard and creating complications.
"Ma Youhun, somewhat mixed up?"
Chu Feng almost burst out laughing, the man’s name really matched his muddled actions.
"Are you deaf? Your Marshal is ordering you to charge immediately!" Ma Youhun yelled again.
"Soldiers of the Northern Beixie Empire, hear my command—attack! Seize the commander’s platform, take control of the army, and if anyone dares to resist, kill without mercy!" Chu Feng, wielding a Divine Weapon, pointed directly at the furiously shouting Ma Youhun on the commander’s platform.
"Your subordinate obeys!"
Thirty-two Great Generals, all responded in unison.
They have been waiting for this moment for a long time, having had enough of enduring Ma Youhun and others’ oppression.
Regrettably, the Beixie Emperor, a coward concerned only with power and pleasure, lacked integrity and cared nothing for dignity.
As an Emperor, he was fully intent on defecting to the Great Ma Empire and becoming their servant.
And as his subjects, they naturally had no right to dissent.
Now that Chu Feng has become the Grand Marshal, they saw a chance to vent their frustrations. Everyone was incredibly excited and showed even greater support for Chu Feng, their new leader.
"Kill!"
The cry resonated across the sky as the fierce troop charged towards the Commander’s Platform where Ma Youhun was.
Chu Feng had been wary of the eleven Sword God Level powerhouses sent by the Panlong Heavenly Emperor. Alongside Yan Qing, he also charged with the army.
But he did not rush to the front.
"Rebellion, rebellion!" Ma Youhun never dreamed that the army of the Northern Beixie would turn against him at this critical moment.
In a mix of shock and rage, Ma Youhun hastily looked behind him.
There lay his reliance.
"Squeak~!"
A flare shot into the sky, its red light brilliant and lasting.
Whoosh whoosh!
Suddenly, from a guardian city behind, eleven terrifying streams of sword light flew out as fast as lightning.
"Not good, those are the eleven Sword God-level powerhouses from the Great Ma Empire! They’re here!"
The faces of those from the Northern Beixie side changed dramatically.
"Don’t panic, let’s face the soldiers and drown the water! With me here as the Marshal, one comes, one gets slain!" Chu Feng, exuding a killing aura, intended to lure the enemy into the trap.
It would be even more convenient if Ma Quanzi, that traitor, also showed up.
Then one could slaughter them clean.
Saving more trouble.
For now, Chu Feng had control over the army of Northern Beixie, naturally having endless confidence and reliance.
In the blink of an eye, the army of Northern Beixie had already charged to the front of the Commander’s Platform.
Scared, Ma Youhun cried out repeatedly, "Stop them, quick, stop them!" while simultaneously pleading for help from the arriving eleven Sword God’s Strong People.
"Great Lords, save me!"
The expressions of those eleven Sword God’s Strong People were cold and their eyes were sharp.
They were still some distance from the Commander’s Platform.
Ma Youhun’s cultivation was not weak, evidently having a Beginner Level Sword Saint cultivation. Seeing he could not hold the Commander’s Platform and worried about possible mishaps,
he directly abandoned the platform and flew towards the rear on his sword.
"Still want to escape?"
Chu Feng coldly shouted, controlling his sword in the air, slashing at the fleeing Ma Youhun.
"Stop!"
"How dare you!"
The eleven Sword God-level powerhouses from the Azure Dragon Heavenly Kingdom, each one irate.
If Chu Feng were to kill someone under their watch, where would they put their faces?
Chu Feng was not afraid of their threats and had no intention of stopping.
Swish!
The Divine Weapon slashed fiercely at Ma Youhun.
With Chu Feng’s cultivation strength, killing someone like Ma Youhun was truly as simple as eating and drinking water.
