The North City s had been breached, and the hearts of the people on Ying Bu's side had been thrown into chaos. It was difficult for the twenty thousand guards to withstand the attacks of more than six hundred thousand troops, and now they were defeated even faster.
Very quickly, Feng Army was forced down the city walls and returned to the city. Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country took the opportunity to attack the city walls and chased after Feng Army with his butt. The difference in strength between the two sides was simply too great. No matter how strong the battle prowess of the Ba Pass's defensive force was, being able to fight one against ten was not enough to stop the seven hundred thousand over enemy forces. The fierce battle ended with the defeat of the Feng Army, and what followed was an even more bloody street battle. Ying Bu led a group of elite soldiers, which were moving about inside the Ba Pass City, upon meeting a small group of enemies, they would immediately rush forward to kill, and upon meeting a large group of enemies, they would run, causing a lot of casualties for the Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country.
But as more and more Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country entered the city, the leeway for Ying Bu's group grew smaller and smaller. In the end, with only a few hundred soldiers left, they were trapped in a mansion by tens of thousands of enemies. They only had a few hundred people, but they managed to push back several tens of thousands of attacks consecutively. In the end, the Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country became anxious, and used a fire attack and set the house on fire, causing and the soldiers under him to be buried in the sea of fire.
This big fire seemed to be the prelude to the fire attack from Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country. Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country locked all the Feng Army infected with the plague into the living quarters, and then, the soldiers of the two armies started to add firewood around the living quarters, setting it on fire. The pitiful thirty thousand Generals And Soldiers of Feng Army s, who did not die from the plague, were all burnt alive.
From the start, he had not planned to control the Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country and had even set fires in all four directions. At noon that day, in the southern gate of the Feng Country, the Ba Pass known as the Heaven's perilous state had already sunk into a sea of fire.
Setting fire to burn Ba Pass, this order was not given by Nie Ze, but rather by Ren Fang.
Ren Fang had his own reasons for doing this. In his view, the plague tactic was too inhumane, and now, the plague was spreading throughout the Ba Pass City. If they were to just ignore it, then who knew if it would spread to the citizens of the Profound Sky Continent, and if the plague spread among the citizens, then their crime would be too great.
The pestilence could not stand up to any kind of fire. If they were burned cleanly, it would be equivalent to extinguishing all future troubles. At the same time, they could destroy all evidence to prevent their own country from getting into the dark.
He was worried that his Ba Pass would be taken over by the Mo Country, and that it would become a danger to the north of Mo Country. And after his own side exterminated the wind, the next target he would annex most likely would be his Mo Country, so he absolutely could not allow his Ba Pass to fall into the hands of the Mo Country, and burn down the Ba Pass.
The battle of Ba Pass could be said to be the most tragic battle that Tang Yin had ever fought since becoming a Feng King, and he had also suffered the most miserable defeat. Not only was Ying Bu, along with the seventy thousand soldiers who were defending the Ba Pass, completely annihilated them, they were even removed from the Feng Army.
The defeat of Ba Pass allowed the ambitious Feng Country to once again taste the bitterness of an enemy invading the homeland.
After burning the Ba Pass, he rested for a while before heading north to chase after the Main Force of Feng Army.
Furthermore, with Li Cheng in the lead, the two hundred thousand Chastity Army began to rapidly march towards the Cong City. These two hundred thousand strong army travelled day and night almost without stopping. Their speed was not slower than a normal cavalry army. Along the way, the soldiers of the Chastity Army were so tired that they couldn't run anymore. As they ran, they fainted to the ground.
No one cared about them. The people dragged the unconscious soldiers to the side of the road and continued their march. In the Chastity Army, there was no such thing as "to kill those who don't save one's life". If you stay behind to look after the unconscious wounded, you may break with the main body, and the result will be death. So, people could only clench their teeth and persevere. No matter how much more bitter and tired they were, their legs were going to break from running, so they had to keep up with the main force.
The Generals rode back and forth in the crowd and continuously cheered the soldiers under his command. Their shouts did not have those grand words of righteousness, and they were all very sincere.
"Run!" No one wants to fall behind, if they fall behind, the only way left is to wait to be killed by the Windman! "
"Within two days, if we don't make it to Cong City, we'll starve to death. Those who don't want to die, run with all your might! "Faster, faster, faster!"
The difference between the two armies could also be seen from the words of the Chastity Army general. The retreat of Feng Army was just a retreat, while the emergency march of the Chastity Army was a march for survival. Under the desire to survive, people tend to be able to unleash their potential.
It was hard to imagine that the two hundred thousand men of the Chastity Army would only use two days to run from the mountain range all the way to the Cong City. This was a whole day ahead of the Feng Army which they had taken the short route.
With regards to the Cong City, they were completely unprepared against this Chastity Army that suddenly attacked them. People never dreamed that the enemy would appear under the walls of the Cong City.
When the Chastity Army was less than a mile away from the Cong City, the city gates were wide open, and the citizens and caravans went in and out as usual, in and out in a peaceful manner. The soldiers on the city walls noticed this large army rushing over, but because the Chastity Army did not take up any banner, they did not treat it as an enemy.
General Li Cheng saw that he could take advantage of this situation and passed down the order. The entire army advanced at full speed.
The Chastity Army led by Li Cheng was not obstructed at all. In a single breath, they rushed to the city gate and brandished their weapons, hacking madly regardless of whether the people in front were civilians or soldiers.
This time, the city gate was thrown into chaos. The soldiers on the city wall finally realized that the enemy troops weren't coming from their own side, but from the enemy's side. People were ringing the alarm, wanting to lift the drawbridge and close the city gates, but it was too late.
When they saw such a bustling town, it was as if locusts had seen crops. Their eyes were glowing with blue light, as they hacked at people and robbed things the moment they saw them, and when they saw people selling snacks on the street, the extremely hungry Chastity Army rushed up to a large group of people and stuffed food into their mouths.
At this time, the entire Cong City had sunk into chaos. There were fleeing commoners everywhere, and everywhere, Zhen Soldier was chasing and killing unarmed people. In an instant, the bustling Cong City had turned into a chaste, lawless slaughterhouse.
When the Mayor Yu Hao heard that the enemy had entered the city, she immediately summoned the garrison inside the city and personally put on her armor to go meet the enemy.
In the end, their group of Feng Army met the Chastity Army who was rushing towards them on the main street of Cong City, and the two sides began a life and death struggle within the city.
In a panic, Yu Hao had only gathered over a thousand of his local army. How could he withstand the beast-like army of the Chastity Army?
The great general of Zhen Country, Gao Jun, was the first to rush into the group of people holding Feng Army. Slashing and slashing left, everywhere he went, screams could be heard. He forced open a bloody path, rushed to Yu Hao, raised his blade and hacked Yu Hao down.
However, in his battle with Jiang Fan, the wager was taken away by him. Now that he did not have a weapon that he could use with his hands, he could only use a blade. But even with a blade, Gao Jun's martial power was not weakened much, and was not something that the civil Yu Hao could match up to.2
After Yu Hao was killed, his Feng Army scattered and he was chased by the Chastity Army all the way. The people had nowhere to go and nowhere to go, and in the end, only a few managed to escape.
The defending forces of Feng Country were not even able to withstand a single blow, causing the Chastity Army to become even more crazier and more unscrupulous. With two hundred thousand Chastity Army soldiers scurrying around the streets, as long as they could see people on the streets, regardless of gender or age, they would all be killed.
The military discipline of Feng Army was loose enough, and the military discipline of the Chastity Army was extremely corrupt, to the extreme, displaying the words' hit, smash, and rob 'to the extreme. When the streets were empty, the citizens were so frightened that they hid in their homes and did not dare to show their faces, and the mad robbing of the Chastity Army began.
Of all the shops in the city, none were spared, even if they were closed, the Chastity Army would still break in, not letting go of gold, silver, jewelry, silk clothing, antique calligraphy and even the rouge and vermilion powder used by women. But anything that could be taken away, they would take everything.
This was no longer the regular army of a country, but a bandit that was more barbaric than bandits.
When Li Cheng gave the order for the whole army to gather on the main street, every Soldier's waist was full of belongings. Many people robbed too much, and strings of pearl necklaces appeared from the gaps of their breastplates.
The soldiers were working hard for him, he did not have much military pay for his subordinates, so it was only right for his subordinates to steal what they liked on the battlefield. This was also Li Cheng's principle and idea of governing the army.
He raised his head to look at the sun above him, calculated the time, and then said to the surrounding Generals: "The entire army will rest at Cong City for four hours! We'll gather here in four hours! "Remember, don't let our brothers snatch anything, and get some rations instead. It's not certain if we'll be able to snatch them next time!"
"Understood, General!" All the generals of the Chastity Army cupped their hands in acknowledgement.
These four hours of rest for the Chastity Army was the true calamity for the citizens of Cong City. Two hundred thousand soldiers of the Chastity Army moved freely and scattered throughout the city. They also broke into the houses of the people one by one, taking anything that was valuable. They killed every man they saw and dragged every woman into the house.
The originally bustling Cong City, under the ravaging of the Chastity Army, had filled the entire city with cracks and wails.
Zhen Jun Army's military discipline was relaxed, but they still followed their superiors' orders with great obedience. After four hours, not a single person among the two hundred thousand people dared to be late, and they all gathered on the main street of Cong City.
The regiments leaders and thousand-man commanders did not even bother to call out names. After all the regiments were gathered, Li Cheng gave the order, and the entire troop released their Cong City, rushing to the next target ? ? Fang City.
Zhen Jun did come fast, and went even faster. Like a whirlwind sweeping away the clouds, he quickly ran out of the Cong City in the blink of an eye, and headed towards the north.
Zhen Jun had left, but the injuries that he had left on Cong City could not be healed even after a long time. In less than six hours, the cries of almost every household could be heard, and almost every household had died under Zhen Jun's blade ?
