Demoness, where are you Fleeing to?
Chapter 763 - 631

"That must be Shulv Dezan," Wei Zhen also noticed the anomaly from the other side. "Also known as Xiao Dezhan, when Shulv Ping, the Empress of Liao, was poisoned to death by the Shi Emperor of Liao, three high-ranking officials she trusted were also ordered to commit suicide. This Shulv Dezan is one of them, said to be proficient in local laws."

Jiang Hanyun was instantly eager to participate: "Leave him to me."

She had been waiting for this big scene today, but so far she had no chance to step forward.

However, Li Xuan stopped her, "Let Xueshi Shang handle this instead."

Shang Hong was speechless for a moment, clearly Marquis of Guanjun wanted to divert his attention and cease his chatter.

However, he had no reason to refuse, so he took flight and flew towards the hills on the left as ordered.

Li Xuan then pointed in another direction: "Hanyun, your task is over there, work with Yunrou and go straight to them, don’t let them have a chance to shoot."

He was pointing at the position one mile ahead of the valley mouth, where tens of thousands of Pishi Iron Cavalry were dismounting and preparing to shoot arrows at the Jin Army’s formation.

These Pishi Zombie Army were surprisingly not using the archery skills of riders, but the more powerful and longer-ranged foot bow.

Naturally, Li Xuan couldn’t let them fire at their leisure, he was preparing to bombard them with a combination of artillery and gunfire, and at the same time let Jiang Hanyun and Xue Yunrou cause them some trouble.

He estimated that the Heavenly level on the other side would also respond. After all, under the flag of the Empress of Liao, were her three old subordinates, as well as Zhang Guanlan and Li Zhetian, and even the subordinates of Master Zhongliu could be involved.

In terms of the power of the heavenly level alone, the other side surpassed them.

However, Li Xuan still wanted to choose the battlefield of the heavenly level, in the sky above the enemy line at the front as much as possible to reduce their own losses.

The moment Xue Yunrou made her move, it was like a raging thunderbolt. In an instant, she summoned more than a hundred gigantic thunder snakes, as thick as water barrels, to strike the ground from the rain clouds above.

Jiang Hanyun’s speed was not slow either, she utilized the thunder snakes summoned by Xue Yunrou from the sky, and in a blink of an eye a huge magnetic field was formed. In an instant, thousands of Evil Corpses were twisted and torn apart by the magnetic force, and they disintegrated into fragments of flesh and blood.

But the efficient killing of the two only lasted for a moment, and with a slash of a black sword light, a large part of the vast thunderbolt was dissolved into nothingness.

At the same time, two knives brimming with limitless Cold Power, were lunging towards Jiang Hanyun.

Li Xuan took a deep look at the tall and burly figure dressed in black armor and clothing, ’Li Zhetian’, and then retracted his gaze.

"Send the order, all four-inch caliber breechloader cannons replaced with Buckshots, aim at a distance of three hundred feet and fire! Seven quick shots!"

At this point, the front part of the ghostly army was less than one hundred and twenty feet away from the military formation on the hills on both sides.

Li Xuan ignored those evil spirit zombies at the forefront and concentrated his firepower on the ’Pishi Iron Cavalry’ hidden behind them instead.

His ’four-inch caliber breechloader cannon’ positions were all located fifty feet above the ground, and from the high vantage point, the field of view for shooting was excellent.

One of the characteristics of these field cannons imitating ’Napoleon cannons’ is that they can freely adjust the firing angle.

As these four-inch breechloader cannons fired in succession, bombarding the ’Buckshots’ covered with demon-breaking Runes towards the enemy lines, and then exploded above the enemy lines, scatters a number of small Buckshots in all directions, creating a large death area instantly.

All living beings in the path of those small pellets were decimated!

At the same time, those Evil Corpse and ghostly army that charged to a distance of a hundred and twenty feet, could not advance any further either.

In front of them, there were three sturdy layers of ’Caltrops’, four trenches filled with Menghuo Oil, and a breast wall.

The soldiers of the Shenji right and left camp, still using the Line Column Formation, calmly fired. One bullet after another, eliminating the Evil Corpses and evil spirits.

Upon seeing this scene, Zhang Guanlan’s face turned pale on the opposing side’s altar.

"Empress! This situation is not good."

He thought that if this trend continued, by the time they flattened those caltrops and trenches, it was estimated that all the subordinate armies under Shulv Ping’s flag would be completely exhausted.

Shulv Ping, however, remained calm: "It doesn’t matter, these worthless Evil Corpses and ghosts, how does it matter if they’re exhausted? As long as we can fill these caltrops and trenches, it’s a gain."

Her eyes flashed sharply, looking towards the command platform in the enemy’s camp: "The killing power of this Shenji right and left camp of 40,000 men is truly breathtaking. If I can trade these 70,000 Pishi Iron Cavalry to bury them here, it would not be a loss."

However, the hand that Shulv Ping held the whip, clenched tighter and tighter.

Shulv Ping still had confidence in breaking the formation. But the loss in this battle would far exceed her previous estimates.

Out of these 270,000 Pishi Zombie Army, probably slightly more than 200,000 are left at most.

These are the fundamental resources she relied on when she went south to Jizhou, to rob and loot the population and blood food, to assist her in reincarnation with the Dragon Qi of Chengde.

Yet, despite her heartache, Shulv Ping obliviously harbored a sense of luck.

Lucky that the young man who commanded the army of the Jin Dynasty, Li Xuan, the one titled ’Marquis of Guanjun’, his folly in military strategy was astounding.

If this man had used these 40,000 musketeers to hold against the Xifeng Pass, Gubei Pass, and other majestic passes of the Great Wall, she would be in a lot more trouble.

Zhang Guanlan was a bit impatient, and he turned and looked at another figure standing outside the altar, dressed as a Fusou Samurai.
