Chapter 349: Chapter 248 Defining the Battle Situation_3

Atop the city walls,

Qing Genglan cursed wearily, but he still heeded the words of the other party, commanding the sharp Border Army cavalry to make way for the Black Scale Army, while bellowing:

"Prepare the bed crossbows, clear the way for this bastard, fire!"

And the Black Scale heavy cavalry smoothly took their place.

Yuan Hao, leading the charge, boosted by the military formation, swung his long halberd in broad, sweeping strokes; each swing’s light blade claiming the lives of a dozen tall Barbarian Tribesmen.

The scalding black blood that splattered on his face excitedly contorted his handsome features.

Like a sharp spearhead, he pierced into the Barbarian Tribes’ formation, charging towards the monstrous beast that loomed like a mountain.

Despite numbering only two thousand, even as their ranks thinned rapidly with the charge, the Black Scale Iron Riders remained unstoppable.

"For the Ancestral God, for the King...."

"Swoosh!"

A long halberd split a three-zhang-tall Barbarian head to toe, its jet-black blood spraying the ground as Yuan Hao lifted his gaze towards that massive dark silhouette....

A hoarse voice echoed across the battlefield:

"Death to me!"

"Buzz——"

A golden blade streak that shot across the sky appeared in a flash, striking the colossal shadow of the statue in the distance with its sky-obscuring force!

"Screech!!!!!"

The war giant, with massive goat-like horns, bellowed in agony, a visible giant gash crippling one of its legs!

The giant’s massive body thunderously fell to the ground, shaking the plains around Northern Border City!

And in the next instant,

a raw voice in Dayanese thunderously followed:

"Prince Wu Yuan! Since you dared to come, then leave your life for this king!"

Amidst these words,

a colossal phantom of a Barbarian God suddenly condensed out of thin air, slapping down on the figure that had risen halfway into the sky.

"Boom!!!!!"

The figure, reinforced by the elite Yu Lin troops, fiercely took the hit, unleashing a hurricane that completely dispersed the surrounding smoke and snow mist!

"....."

The huge turn of events on the flank of the battlefield inevitably made Yuan Hao pause for a moment.

"Commander Yuan!"

While he hesitated, several giant bolts from the ballistae already shot towards him, with two trusted aides falling from their horses as they took arrows for him.

Gathering his spirits to continue the assault, Yuan Hao now understood what had happened; his body, overflowing with Origin Qi from the military formation’s enhancement, trembled uncontrollably with excitement.

His master had once told him.

A general who prevails with a stronger force can be a good commander.

A general who prevails when forces are equal can be a remarkable commander.

A general who prevails with a weaker force can be a famous commander.

A general who prevails when his force cannot match the enemy’s will be remembered for eternity.

He realized what Princess Her Highness intended to do.

Create a diversion, lure the enemy into an attack, use the city for cover, bridge some of the gap in military strength, and concentrate most of the elite troops for a surprise decisive battle.

Yuan Hao liked killing, but he also relished the thrill of precarious victory over the enemy:

"Madwoman... heh heh heh hahaha! No wonder Prince Wu Yuan assigned Qing Genglan to be my deputy! Black Scale Army, follow me in the charge, split the battlefield! Join with the Princess!"

And just then,

from behind the towering Northern Border City walls came a series of ferocious roars as hundreds of huge flying Demonic Beasts belonging to the Black Scale Army vaulted over the walls, racing towards the Barbarian’s rear!

On the chaotic battlefield, dozens of Demonic Beasts were downed by the Barbarians in a matter of breaths, their crashing bodies kicking up dust, but even so, a small number of beasts reached their intended positions.

In an instant,

countless Source Crystal Bombs poured down, effectively blocking the Barbarian rear forces from reinforcing their front lines!
