The Unjust System and My War-Crazy Self

Although the pea musketeers had an advantage in numbers, they lacked any countermeasures against the cavalry on the plains and could only watch helplessly as the Jianzhou cavalry charged recklessly.

"Hahaha!!"

Yilibu was having a great time.

Humph, what bandits, what trouble in the southwest?

If they encounter our Dacheng's Jianzhou cavalry, they will be slaughtered like pigs and sheep.

"Kill!!" He even aimed at Shu Yichao who was far away,

"My men, follow me!!"

"Kill the general and seize the flag!"

After saying this, Yilibu led his cavalry and trampled forward in the dust with great momentum.

"Something bad has happened!" But Xu Zhidu on the top of the city wall shouted in frustration at this moment.

"Have him come back!"

He saw clearly.

Although on the plains, the Jianzhou cavalry has an infinite advantage.

But the plant army is by no means a soft persimmon that can be easily squeezed, nor are they defeated soldiers who will be slaughtered wantonly after their morale collapses.

They will never collapse unless kerosene is thrown at them.

Even if the team was scattered and surrounded by the cavalry, the flying guns had no eyes.

There are always unlucky people who fall off their horses after being hit.

In other words, it is impossible for the army's cavalry to be invincible.

The high morale of the plant army alone was enough to inflict considerable casualties on the Jing Army cavalry!

Yilibu went deep into the plant army array, who knows what is waiting for him inside?

That's courting death!

Unfortunately, Xu Zhidu’s reminder was too late.

"Boom!!"

After a loud bang, several cavalrymen were blown into the sky in the violent explosion.

Of course, a heavy rain of blood began to fall over the battlefield.

"Oh no!" Yilibu above was galloping all the way and had already rushed deep into the plant army.

Only at this moment did he suddenly realize that something was wrong.

"Oh no, it's a mine!"

"We've entered a minefield!"

"withdraw!!"

“Retreat!!”

He subconsciously wanted to ride away.

"Since we're here." Shu Yichao snapped his fingers.

"Just stay."

"Get out of here!!" Yilibu threw out the kerosene can, trying to disperse the pea-gunners who were surrounding him.

But this time, a red figure that was not afraid of fire emerged from the green forest.

“Hoo, hula!!”

"No!" The roaring fire dragon rushed out and suddenly poured extremely hot heat on Yilibu amidst his astonished screams.

"Ahhhh!!!"

Under the attacks of the pepper flamethrowers who ignored the enemy and their own, poor Yilibu was burned to charcoal alive in the blink of an eye along with the pea gunners next to him.

Xu Zhidu on the city wall saw this scene and his face turned green.

On the first day of the war, a general was killed?

What the hell...

Chapter 744 - Front and Back~Pinch Attack~

Xu Zhidu really wanted to slap himself in the face.

It was a good start, but it turned out like this.

It was obvious that in this vast wilderness, the Jianzhou cavalry had already gained a great upper hand against the army of sickly plants.

But Yilibu insisted on giving away his life.

This time

"The governor is dead!"

"The commander-in-chief is dead!

Seeing the flag representing Yilibu fall, the cavalry of the Jianzhou Eight Banners and the Menggu Eight Banners were stunned.

Having lost their commander, they were at a loss as to what to do.

Some wanted to continue charging, some wanted to retreat, and some wanted to snatch Yilibu's body back first, causing a great chaos in the formation.

Shu Yichao's plant army took advantage of the situation and launched a fierce attack.

The Pea Gunner and the Vine-Armored Shroom are responsible for entangling them.

Immediately afterwards, the pepper flamethrowers will quickly approach to bring warmth to these elite cavalrymen.

The whistling flames, like giant snakes, spit out poisonous forked tongues, burning the cavalry of the Qin army who had no time to dodge, and turned them into wailing fireballs along with their horses.

As long as the cavalry of the Xuan Army slows down, their end will be to turn into charcoal completely.

"what!!

"No!!

"Be careful of those in red

"withdraw!!

"Quickly retreat

The cavalry of the Qin army, who had not expected Shu Yichao to use this tactic of mutual destruction, whipped their whips and fled back.

Fortunately, the army of diseased plants could not catch up with them.

It was slow to begin with, and now it's even slower after I got sick.

Therefore, most of the cavalry of the Xuan Army who did not penetrate deep into the enemy's lines survived.

But even so, they still lost hundreds of heads, some bloody and some charred.

"Tsk." Shu Yichao tsks.

“What an annoying cavalryman.

"It seems that we need to find a way...

"Hmph!" Looking at the cavalry of the Xian army who had escaped back, Xu Zhidu snorted coldly.

"Cunning bandit!"

"Use all the shameful means

"Pass my orders!" he ordered.

"Next time you pursue, don't go too deep into the enemy lines."

"You can only kill the scattered bandits, leaving a buffer distance to prevent them from laying mines. Also, remember not to get close to the red-clothed soldiers—"

"Yiling City is strong, those sickly people can't get in!"

In the next few days, the plant army continued to launch attacks on schedule.

But just as Xu Zhidu said, even though the plant army surrounded Yiling City, they had no way to take the city.

Each attack left thousands of corpses in front of the walls of Yiling City.

In addition, the cavalry of the Qin army on the flanks came and went like the wind, launching continuous surprise attacks, tearing the ranks of the plant army into pieces again and again...

The result was that surging green waves roared and repeatedly crashed into the solid blue-black reefs.

But every collision only left behind broken white waves on the ground.

The morale of Yiling City, which has repeatedly defeated the offensive of the plant army, is high and the fighting spirit is high.

However, looking at the seemingly smooth war, Xu Zhidu's brows were tightly furrowed.

"strangeness…

“I always feel like something is wrong.

The intuition cultivated by his years of battle always made him feel an inexplicable sense of tension.

"Where exactly is it?"

Xu Zhidu sat firmly on top of a tall building, looking up at the blue sky.

Then he lowered his gaze to those surging green waves, and then looked further away.

It crosses the vast wilderness, passes through the green hills, and finally lands on the distant Yangtze River.

".……broken!!"

Xu Zhidu blurted out.

"Ningnan Pingkou General!!"

"He's still on the south bank of the Yangtze River!"

"The bandits crossed Yiling to attack the general.

Hunan, Lizhou.

"attack!

The iron-hatted king of the Xingting, General Le Erjin, was commanding 60,000 Xing troops to attack the small city.

“Attack the city, attack the city!

He shouted vigorously.

"Pass my orders!"

"Capture this city

“Don’t put down your sword for three days!

"kill!

Under such stimulation, countless Qing troops, carrying ladders and pushing battering rams, rushed towards the city wall of Lizhou, roaring.

The roar of artillery fire, the whistling of muskets, and all kinds of wailing and screaming were intertwined together.

However, the cute army on the city wall should not be underestimated. Apart from the reinforcements sent by Ma Bao, the plant army stationed in the city still stubbornly inflicted casualties on the Qin army despite their sick bodies.

Under the torrential downpour of fire, the army of Xuan suffered heavy casualties, but was still unable to gain a foothold on the city wall.

Looking at the soldiers under his command, they were like snow melting in a hot pot. The deputy governor Shuo Dai beside Le Erjin was so shocked that his eyelids were twitching.

"General." He advised Le Erjin.

"We can't keep fighting like this!

"Although this city is small, the enemy troops are highly motivated and well-equipped with firearms, making it difficult to capture it in a short time."

"Besides, Ma Ni's army is in Changde, not far from here.

"Reinforcements are arriving soon

"Why not retreat to the riverside camp for the time being?
