Transmigrating to another world, starting as a mountain god

Ji Lin frowned slightly:

"Brother, you are the commander of the army, how can you rush into battle!"

Ji Xiu shook her head and tightened her armor.

"The Xu Kingdom's cavalry is well-equipped and has formidable combat power. The soldiers of An Yue have suffered heavy casualties."

"General Fan has died in battle, and all the generals now have their own areas of responsibility and are fighting desperately."

"I have to step up and hold the left flank!"

Ji Lin stopped Ji Xiu.

"Elder brother, if you trust your third brother, then let him go first!"

Ji Lin looked confident and serious.

Ji Xiu angrily rebuked him:

"Third brother, you are intelligent and precocious from a young age. Father has high hopes for you!"

"However, you are still young and inexperienced. I also promised Father in my letter that I would not easily send you to the front lines!"

Ji Xiu was twenty-three or twenty-four years old, while Ji Lin was only seventeen.

Ji Lin wanted to say something more.

"Besides, I am your elder brother! And also the commander-in-chief of an army!"

"You won't get a chance to go before I fall!"

Ji Xiu stopped Ji Lin, forbidding him from stopping her any further.

Then he strode out of the tent.

Ji Lin frowned deeply, and finally sighed:

"But I don't want those so-called high expectations..."

This battle was extremely fierce.

The Serpent Armor Army of the Xu Kingdom was well-trained and its battle formations were varied and unpredictable. On the battlefield, it was like a sharp knife, completely severing the left flank of the battlefield.

The Serpent Armor Army charged forward, their goal being to seize the pass of the Qian Kingdom.

However, taking advantage of the strategic pass, Ji Xiu led his army and forced the Snake Armor Army to retreat time and time again.

However, the armor of the Serpent Armor Army was extremely hard, and ordinary arrows could not penetrate it at all.

However, throwing spears would consume too much of the weapon's resources.

Therefore, whenever the Serpent Armor Army approached and tried to storm the city gate, Ji Xiu could only use a large number of arrows soaked in fire oil to drive them away with fire arrows.

The battlefield was a vast mountain range, spanning thousands of miles.

An Yue was in charge of the left flank, and Qian Guo was in charge of the right flank.

The powerful Xu Kingdom, with its strong army, directly took on two opponents without flinching.

This is a battle for the fate of the nation, and no one is willing to back down.

On the right flank battlefield, more than ten miles away, the Qian Kingdom's army was being routed and forced to retreat.

The invasion and plundering by the Xu Kingdom over the past two years have significantly diminished the fighting spirit of the Qian Kingdom's army.

When faced with a setback, the Qian Kingdom's army would panic, with even most of the squad leaders wanting to lead the way in fleeing, let alone the ordinary soldiers.

Those who went into battle first were all rebels who had previously followed Wang Xiang.

Now that I've fought the enemy, I can consider it an atonement for my sins.

Seeing that the Qian army was in disarray, Emperor Qian stood directly on the city wall and personally supervised the army.

The commander-in-chief of the Qian Kingdom was a brave middle-aged man. With a single command, he ordered 100,000 elite troops to attack!

This elite force has been biding its time, but now it has launched a sudden attack and is unstoppable!

The arrival of the elite Qian army instantly reversed the disadvantage.

The right flank of the battlefield was pushed back immediately.

But how could Xu Guo remain indifferent?

The Emperor of Xu Kingdom simply gave his commander-in-chief a casual instruction:

"I will shatter the morale of the Qian Kingdom's army!"

The commander-in-chief of Xu Kingdom understood and immediately dispatched another 50,000 elite cavalry, intending to crush the fighting spirit of Qian Kingdom in one fell swoop!

As soon as the elite cavalry appeared, the originally valiant Qian Kingdom soldiers suddenly faced much greater resistance.

Their iron cavalry swept across the battlefield, few could rival them.

This is one of the reasons why the Xu Kingdom dares to invade other countries at will, and it is also the source of the Xu Kingdom's strength.

Mature shield-armored and heavy spearmen could counter these cavalry, but due to limitations in materials and steel-forging technology, the Qian Kingdom had never been able to cultivate such troops.

Inferior shields and heavy weapons were insufficient to stop these well-equipped cavalry.

Seeing that the Qian Kingdom's front line was in dire straits, a nearby An Yue general immediately sent out a message and led his soldiers to provide support!

His battle line was located slightly to the right of center, and since he was not facing cavalry or heavily armored troops, the pressure was actually less.

However, this act of providing assistance played right into Xu Guo's scheme.

Xu Kingdom dispatched another light cavalry force, only five thousand men, but they were extremely fast.

Light cavalry charged out from a corner of the mountains, advancing with lightning speed straight towards the general's camp outside the Qian Kingdom's pass.

If the camp is destroyed, regardless of the casualties, the morale of the troops will be greatly affected.

The Xu Kingdom has a strong military force, and this tactic is a coercive measure.

Without support, the Qian army will be routed and the defensive line will surely fall.

If we go to provide support, the central area will be left empty!

Ji Lin stood in the tent and gave orders directly on behalf of his brother.

"Dispatch 30,000 elite troops and launch an immediate attack!"

"No need for a fierce battle! Unleash all your arrows and spears! Wipe out this light cavalry!"

"Order all soldiers in the camp to raise their flags to confuse the enemy!"

Ji Lin spared no effort to quickly annihilate this light cavalry force and restore morale!

Both sides began to probe and attack each other repeatedly, exchanging blows and employing both overt and covert tactics, resulting in a fierce battle.

This war lasted for six months!

This vast mountain range on the border of the Qian Kingdom is stained with blood, and littered with corpses.

An Yue's 200,000-strong army was wiped out by 140,000 in just six months.

Ji Lin replaced Ji Xiu as head coach, showing no fear in the face of battle and calmly coordinating the overall situation in the command tent.

As others have said, Ji Lin is truly a gifted individual.

Despite being the first time he had commanded a large army, he managed to organize everything in an orderly manner.

In fact, it even reversed some of An Yuefang's decline.

Of course, this is largely due to Ji Xiu's desperate fighting on the front lines.

That heavily armored army, known as the Long Serpent Army, employed extremely unpredictable tactics.

Fortunately, Ji Xiu personally led the troops, greatly boosting morale, which prevented this heavily armored army from breaking through the battle lines.

However, Ji Xiu's outstanding performance also caught Xu Guo's attention...

Not long ago.

Ji Xiu has disappeared...

During one of the battles, a heavily armored unit disregarded casualties and charged forward, braving a hail of spears and arrows to divide the area where Ji Xiu was located.

After that, An Yue's army lost contact with Ji Xiu, and her fate was unknown.

Despite his deep concern, Ji Lin could only force himself to remain calm and continue leading the troops.

Fortunately, the heavily armored army that charged forward was also routed and lost its armor and weapons, and did not return to the battlefield afterward.

Xu Guo was clearly in pain.

Both the Qian army and the An Yue army were determined to fight to the death against the Xu Kingdom's army.

If the weapons break, then charge in and fight hand-to-hand.

If the armor cracks, then keep fighting wearing coarse linen clothes.

When you run out of rations, dig up the blood-stained grass roots and tree bark, eat them with the blood, and keep fighting!

If someone has lost an arm or a leg, bite them with your teeth or smash their head against them! If someone is critically injured and on the verge of death, tear off a piece of their flesh with bloodshot eyes!

To give in means our homes will be stained with blood, our relatives and friends will suffer, and our land will be lost forever!

But the soldiers of the Xu Kingdom were different.

They were the aggressors, feeling that they had already plundered a considerable amount of wealth and there was no need to fight to the death.

An Yue and Qian Guo fought with ferocious courage, each one like a madman, charging forward wave after wave, relentlessly following...

Faced with these 'crazy' An Yue and Qian Guo soldiers, the Xu Guo soldiers gradually became somewhat wary and no longer wanted to risk their lives.

The Emperor of Xu Kingdom also felt a pang of regret, as he had not been able to spare the 10,000 heavy cavalrymen who were the last eleven among the 300,000 cavalrymen he had trained.

The other light cavalry and elite cavalry suffered heavy casualties, with more than 100,000 dead or wounded.

Even though this was the result of more than 400,000 soldiers from both An and Qian sides risking their lives, the emperor of Xu still felt it was a loss.

In his view, the Qian Kingdom was rich but barbaric, while An Yue was just a desolate wasteland.

How could we have killed 100,000 cavalrymen of the Xu Kingdom?

"armistice!"

Xu Guo was the first to voice his opinion.

A six-month-long battle.

An Yue was left with only 70,000 soldiers, most of whom were wounded or disabled.

The Qian Kingdom was so depleted of its national strength that it couldn't even muster an army of 100,000.

However, this is the situation behind the scenes.

On the surface, both An Yue and Qian Guo were raising their military flags, as if they had reinforcements.

Xu Guo could only roughly estimate the situation of An and Qian, and without knowing the exact numbers, they did not want to fight anymore.

The entire vast mountain range, stretching for hundreds of miles, was covered with corpses.

Limbs and severed arms were scattered all over the ground, heads were separated from bodies, and bodies were cut open... all kinds of gruesome deaths were scattered across the land.

A gentle breeze swept by, passing by quietly, and carried away the strong, fishy smell.

Occasionally, rain falls, but instead of cleansing the land, it forms tiny 'rivers of blood'...

The soldiers' corpses lay exposed in the wilderness, exposed to rain and buried by dust.

A faint sobbing sound could be heard between heaven and earth; it was unclear whether it was the heavens lamenting and grieving, or the souls of the fallen soldiers wailing and weeping.
