The sound of drums and drums can be heard on the battlefield, and dust and smoke are swirling in the military formations.
There was a murderous aura in the dim light of the cold iron, and the sound of drums all over the field was inexplicably tragic.
The loud noise of "dong dong dong" echoed in the night, and the entire Fengyuan City was resonating with this suppressed sound, as if the whole world was singing in response.
As soon as two hours passed, the 330,000 Ning, Shu and Feng coalition troops began to move slowly, squeezing away bit by bit towards the Ganhui company camp in the distance.
The military formation of more than 300,000 people was so spectacular that it is difficult to describe this scene in words.
But what is even more exaggerated is the more than 700,000 Ganhui army on the opposite side, which is waiting in full formation.
The soldiers are in full gear, their spears and swords reflect the moon.
All 700,000 people came out of the camp and formed several layers of tight defense lines in the direction of Fengyuan. The two-character flags "Qian" and "Hui" were flying in the night.
In such a plain battle, there aren't many tactics to speak of. It's just a matter of meeting on a narrow road and the brave one wins.
Because of this, at least at this moment, the Ganhui army, which lacked generals, did not show the slightest hint of timidity, and what was on the faces of every soldier was determination.
Fighting in a foreign country, coupled with the current situation, they had no way out.
If this battle cannot be won, everyone must know what is waiting for them.
Therefore, no matter how exhausted these 700,000 people are under the successive harassments of the Tengu Army, they can only fight hard to face the enemy.
Even until this moment, their reinforcements have not arrived yet...
"Helmsman!"
"Mr. Chu has received a letter!"
After returning to the army camp, just when the distance between the two armies outside the camp was no more than a few miles away, in one of the few military tents that were still lit, a man suddenly stood up with a "snap" and raised his hand high With a piece of mother-in-law jade.
He took two quick steps and handed the jade to Zhuang Zhiming, who had a serious face. Then he and the others watched the latter nervously, not daring to express his anger.
This was the first time news came from Chu Xianping since the sneak attack on Wei Changtian that night, and it would probably be the last time news came before the end of the Xinfeng Battle.
There is no doubt that the "instructions" in this message will most likely affect or even determine the outcome of this battle.
"..."
There was deathly silence inside the military tent, and there was no wind or sound outside the military tent.
I don’t know if it was the “calm before the storm.” Just when the battle that was destined to be bloody and cruel was approaching, everything from the night sky to the earth became silent, and even the weeds did not move.
From nervousness, to surprise, to astonishment, to excitement, to confusion.
Zhuang Zhiming held the mother-in-law jade in his hand, and his expression changed several times in just a few dozen breaths.
After a few more breaths, he finally put down the jade that was no longer heating up, raised his head and glanced around at the people in the tent who were staring at him.
"Everyone, if tonight happens, we can finally get a glimpse of the secret of that first-class..."
A calm voice sounded slowly, and with just one sentence, everyone's eyes suddenly widened and their breathing became rapid.
As I said before, Zhuang Zhiming and Chu Xianping are not "superior and subordinate", they are just a cooperative relationship.
And the reason why he was willing to obey Chu Xianping's order could only be because of the Moon-Chasing Sword.
What specific deal Zhuang Zhiming made with Chu Xianping, and how he was sure that Chu Xianping would fulfill his promise, are still unknown and unimportant.
The important thing is that after tonight, Chu Xianping will hand over the Moon-challenging Sword Manual to him.
As for what's the last thing he's going to do about it...
"Lao Zhang, Lao Liu, Lao Yang, you stay..."
"Remember, after the war begins, you will..."
"..."
Turning to look at the three of them, Zhuang Zhiming said a few words seriously.
Then, in the eyes of everyone who gradually became horrified, he said in a deep voice to the other six people:
"You guys, come with me!"
"..."
"call!"
Like a dark wind passing by, seven people including Zhuang Zhiming disappeared after a few breaths, leaving only three men with the lowest level still standing in the tent.
The three of them looked at each other in confusion, and they all saw a hint of shock from the bottom of their hearts in each other's eyes.
Because it was only at this moment that they finally understood how big Chu Xianping's handiwork was...
The clouds cover the moon and cover the sky and the earth.
It's six quarters to one hour, and there are still two quarters of an hour before the decisive battle.
...
...
"Rumble!"
Surrounded by black armor, when the military formation that stretched for several miles slowly came to a stop, the golden flag in the middle of the army slowly stopped shaking.
Looking over the heads of countless soldiers and glancing at the endless fire on the opposite side, Han Zhao turned his gaze to Wei Changtian beside him.
Obviously, he was waiting for the latter to issue the final attack order.
The moon dims, the wind stops, and the sand sinks.
At this moment, the entire battlefield was silent, except for the neighing of horses.
Being in this extremely depressing battlefield, Wei Changtian suddenly felt that everything was a bit magical.
Two years ago, I was just an ordinary person running for a living.
And now...
To be honest, this is the first time Wei Changtian has experienced such a scene.
In the earliest Fengning National War, he did not participate in the whole process.
During the Battle of Shuzhou, Guanghan County was a defensive battle, and the Niutoushan ambush was considered a one-sided massacre.
In the recent battle of Liangzhou, he did not go to the surprise attack on Xianchi, and the subsequent battles were not fought at all.
Therefore, although he was more or less involved in every war, he had never actually witnessed a large-scale war scene.
What's more, this is the most brutal plain army battle.
"..."
Taking a deep breath, Wei Changtian felt that the air around him seemed to become thicker and thicker, and every breath smelled of heroism.
Dark clouds are pressing down on the city, threatening to destroy it.
Until this moment, he finally realized what extreme depression is.
This is a silence that holds the breath of millions of people, and a tremor that makes millions of hearts beat.
For Wei Changtian, for Xu Suisui, for Chu Xianping, and for Lu Hongji, this battle involved too many conflicts of interest and conspiracy.
But for the millions of ordinary soldiers standing on the battlefield at this moment, they are not doing it for themselves, but for the king and the country.
An inch of mountains and rivers, an inch of blood, a hundred thousand young men and a hundred thousand soldiers.
Hundreds of thousands of people work together to fight for righteousness, fighting for thousands of miles of land in the world.
There is no doubt that countless people will die tonight.
But just like Wei Changtian's heroic feat of breaking into the enemy camp alone a few days ago, no matter how heroic and turbulent the battle was, only a small paragraph could be left in the history books...
"call!"
A gust of wind passed by, and the real dragon emerged.
Under the gaze of everyone, Wei Changtian stepped onto the dragon's head, and his whole body was filled with golden light.
Normally, he should say some exciting words to boost morale at this time.
However, he just slowly pulled out the Longquan Sword, pointed it straight forward, and after a few breaths roared out two four-character sentences that shook the world.
