Chapter 116 The death of the commander-in-chief, leading the army to counterattack!

"Reporting to the master, Luowang has received news that the commander-in-chief Wang Fang, sent by the imperial court to conquer the East, fell into Xiao Xian's trap and died in the chaos!"

Zhao Gao bowed to Lin Fan and said respectfully.

"What? The army was defeated, and Wang Fang is dead? What's the army like now?"

When Lin Fan heard the news reported by Zhao Gao, his face suddenly changed.

Zhao Gao said, "It happened last night. The imperial army has retreated dozens of miles, and nearly half of the troops have been killed!"

"What a waste!" Lin Fan couldn't help but curse after hearing this, and then said,

"First, have Luo Wang's men disperse and continue gathering information. I will return to the main camp immediately and report back to me on the movements of Xiao Xin's army."

"Yes, I'll take my leave!" Zhao Gao agreed respectfully, then turned around and left with a dozen of his men.

"Let's go, let's speed up and return to the army," Lin Fan said to Kankan and Shi Zhixuan after Zhao Gao left.

After saying that, Lin Fan directly held Kankan in one hand and used his lightness skills to quickly hurry on his way.

Shi Zhixuan's eyes flashed slightly, and he followed Lin Fan and the others.

"Lord Lin, you're back!" One of Wang Fang's deputy generals' expression changed slightly when he saw Lin Fan coming back, and then he hurried to greet him.

Lin Fan said in a deep voice, "General Song, on my way back, I heard something happened to General Wang. What happened?"

The deputy general's surname was Song and his name was Song Gang.

Hearing Lin Fan's words, Song Gang said angrily, "When the vanguard was destroyed last time, General Wang was furious and has been looking for an opportunity to teach Xiao Xin a lesson and avenge the vanguard army."

"Under General Wang's leadership, we advanced unstoppably along the way, capturing several cities and forcing Xiao Xin's army into retreat."

"But unexpectedly, last night, the enemy suddenly attacked from the rear. Under attack from both sides, our army suffered heavy losses, and General Wang was also killed!"

Lin Fan frowned slightly and said coldly, "Such a simple tactic of arrogance, can't you see it?"

Song Gang smiled bitterly and said, "I have tried to persuade General Wang before, but he didn't take it seriously."

"However, General Wang asked us to stay behind to defend the rear, just in case. This allowed me to survive and prevent the army from being completely defeated for the time being."

Lin Fan glanced at Song Gang and asked, "Has this been reported to the capital?"

Song Gang said, "I have just finished writing a memorial and am preparing to send someone to deliver it to the capital."

"Show it to me," Lin Fan said calmly, raising his eyebrows slightly.

"This is against the rules, isn't it?" Song Gang hesitated a little when he heard this.

"Hmm?" Lin Fan's face darkened slightly, and a terrifying aura pressed towards Song Gang.

"Master Lin, please wait a moment. I will give you the memorial right away." Song Gang sensed the powerful aura, his face suddenly changed, and he said hurriedly.

Lin Fan glanced at him and temporarily withdrew his breath.

Song Gang did not dare to go back on his word. He took out a memorial and handed it to Lin Fan.

After Lin Fan took it, he took a look and frowned.

This guy not only put all the blame on Wang Fang, but also mentioned that Lin Fan was not in the camp, but did not write why Lin Fan left the camp.

"After I finish writing, you can polish it a little and make a copy based on my content," Lin Fan glanced at Song Gang and said lightly.

At this time, it would not be appropriate to kill the deputy general directly.

"Yes," Song Gang heard, not daring to say anything more.

The true energy in Lin Fan's palm surged, and in a moment, he crushed the memorial into powder.

When Song Gang saw this scene, he was even more frightened.

Next, Lin Fan wrote two memorials, one from his own perspective and the other from Song Gang's perspective, and then asked Song Gang to copy the latter one.

"Send someone to deliver it to the capital city in an urgent manner, eight hundred miles away!" After the two memorials were sealed, Lin Fan said to Song Gang.

"Yes," Song Gang agreed, and immediately called a messenger to deliver the letter.

Lin Fan thought about it and simply used the Heavenly Palace Illusion to control Song Gang's mind and make Song Gang respect him.

"The army will rest for three days. During these three days, do your best to boost morale. After three days, launch a counterattack against Xiao Xin! Also, tell the brothers that in three days, we will have 100,000 reinforcements to help us."

After controlling Song Gang, Lin Fan gave him direct orders.

"I obey your command," Song Gang agreed respectfully, and then went down to reorganize the army.

Lin Fan wrote a few more letters and asked Luowang's people to deliver them to Li Jing, Meng Tian and Yue Fei, asking them to cooperate with the imperial army in the attack three days later.

Three days flew by.

Soon, it was the day that Lin Fan had requested before, the day for the counterattack against the Liang army.

Liang was the name of the country that Xiao Xin established.

On this day, Lin Fan, along with Kankan, Shi Zhixuan, and Song Gang, led an army of 60,000 and directly left the city occupied by the imperial army and launched a counterattack against the Liang army.

Looking at the demoralized imperial army behind him, Lin Fan couldn't help but frown.

Looking at the city in front of him, Lin Fan's eyes changed, and after a while, he made a decision in his heart.

"You wait here," Lin Fan instructed Song Gang and the others when they were two hundred meters outside the city.

"Brother Lin, what are you doing..." Kankan was a little curious and hesitated to speak.

"Just wait," Lin Fan smiled faintly, and then suddenly jumped up from the horse's back, taking the immortal steps, like a banished immortal, and floated towards the direction of the Liang army city.

"Oh no, a peerless master has been found in the Zhou army!" Above the city, the guard saw this scene and his face changed slightly.

In this world of martial arts, as a general, he is naturally no stranger to those high-ranking martial artists.

"General, what should we do?" the deputy general next to the guarding general asked in panic.

"Once that person gets close, have the soldiers fire all their arrows at him. What good can a martial arts master do? I don't believe he can block that many arrows at once!"

The guard pondered for a while and sneered.

On the other side, in front of the Zhou army formation, Kankan, Song Gang, Shi Zhixuan and others, as well as tens of thousands of Zhou army soldiers, also looked in the direction of Lin Fan.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Lin Fan flew to a few dozen meters outside the city wall and suddenly stopped.

"Fire the arrow quickly!"

Seeing this, the guard on the city wall shouted loudly.

Suddenly, the defenders on the city wall shot arrows towards Lin Fan.

Faced with the scene of thousands of arrows being fired at once, Lin Fan was not panicked at all. With a slight thought, he directly displayed the Immortal Golden Body, forming a transparent golden light shield around his body.

"Ding Ding Ding!"

Countless arrows hit the golden light shield, but only made crisp sounds. None of the arrows hit Lin Fan.

Lin Fan looked at the city in front of him calmly, his mind moved slightly, and he took out the Snow Drinking Sword from the system space.

"Three feet of ice!"

Lin Fan shouted loudly, and swung the Snow Drinking Sword in his hand fiercely towards the city!

boom!

Suddenly, a terrifying sword light a hundred meters long appeared between heaven and earth, exuding endless chill, and spread to the city gate.
