Chapter 1320: The Terrifying Wang Jian
December 22, 2017
In the Three Kingdoms world, at Ironblood City!
As Yunzhong County falls and Luoyang City's two commanders are utterly defeated by Zhang Huan, Ironblood City also finds itself in a fierce battle.
In this foreign invasion, only two top-tier forces emerged: the Great Qin and the Western Chu.
Among the four Demon Landing Sites, three of them are occupied by the Great Qin's legions, except for Yunzhong County.
Meng Tian is in charge of Yunzhong County, Zhang Huan oversees Luoyang City, and Wang Jian, another powerful general under Qin Shi Huang, leads the forces at Ironblood City. With three formidable generals, it's evident that Qin Shi Huang values the Emperor Cauldron immensely.
In the Three Kingdoms world, Lu Hai Kong had the most extensive military might, capable of easily overpowering the remaining warlords. However, with the emergence of Qin Shi Huang's three legions, Lu Hai Kong's forces instantly pale in comparison.
Qin Shi Huang doesn't even need to deploy his full strength; his current power is more than enough to effortlessly suppress Lu Hai Kong.
Apart from the defeated Yunzhong County, the most challenging battle for Lu Hai Kong is at Ironblood City.
Unlike Meng Tian's early control over Yunzhong County and Luoyang City's various hidden strengths, Ironblood City must engage in direct combat. With their strength inferior to Luoyang City, the battle at Ironblood City is incredibly fierce.
In just four days since the war began, nearly a hundred thousand soldiers have sacrificed their lives within Ironblood City. The city is almost entirely stained with blood, and its walls have been breached several times, barely holding off the enemy.
But the most dangerous aspect is their condition!
On Ironblood City, Chen Yi, the commander of this battle, has a slightly pale complexion.
After four days of intense battle command, even an elite commander like Chen Yi is showing signs of exhaustion. His face is pale, and his eyes are bloodshot, as if he might fall asleep at any moment.
If it weren't for Chen Yi's exceptional command abilities, and the constant suppression of his mental strength by the enemy's military aura, he wouldn't be this fatigued.
It's worth noting that every general under Qin Shi Huang possesses formidable command capabilities. Whether it's Meng Tian, Zhang Huan, or Wang Jian, who is currently overwhelming Chen Yi, their command skills were already above 90 before they became Foreign Demons.
They have been Foreign Demons for at least a few decades, experiencing significant improvements in both strength and command. Their mastery of their Command Traits is something the Three Kingdoms generals could hardly fathom.
In Chen Yi's current battle, Wang Jian, instead of launching a frenzied attack or employing Zhang Huan's tactic of condensing military aura into a hammer, is using a strategy akin to boiling a frog slowly.
In each engagement, Wang Jian infuses his military aura into the offense, gradually increasing the pressure on Chen Yi and his legion.
This pressure wasn't initially overwhelming, but it steadily intensifies.
It is because of this gradually intensifying pressure that Chen Yi finds himself in such a dire situation.
As the commander, he cannot show his exhaustion and vulnerability. He is the core of the entire army, and while others can be tired, he must remain strong.
Chen Yi can only maintain his current state by unleashing his inner strength and consuming medications.
Chen Yi could maintain his state through these means, but his soldiers below couldn't. This pressure wasn't solely directed at Chen Yi.
Their condition had already deteriorated significantly. In fact, under this pressure, they should have collapsed on the third day, but their unwavering belief gave them the strength to hold on for one more day.
However, belief alone wasn't omnipotent, and even the most resolute faith couldn't bring the dead back to life. Facing the terrifying Wang Jian, they could only endure a little longer.
At this moment, as the Ironblood City before him was on the verge of collapse, Wang Jian, a veteran general on the battlefield, launched a full-scale assault!
Hundred Thousand Foreign Demons marched forward with impeccable precision, and under Wang Jian's command, their attack was disciplined and orderly.
Wang Jian's current offensive wasn't as fierce as the previous three days of attacks; it was just a slightly faster tempo. But even this slight acceleration was enough to overwhelm Chen Yi's forces.
In less than half an hour, chaos erupted on the walls of Ironblood City, and the defense began to crumble.
"It's almost time; the city will fall today!"
After more than three days, Wang Jian had gradually built up an overwhelming momentum, and now it was time for a stunning conclusion.
As chaos broke out on the walls of Ironblood City, the military aura that Wang Jian had previously dispersed among the legions converged, forming a terrifying force that struck the city like a flood.
The military aura surged like a flood, and the Foreign Demons followed in its wake. In an instant, the already-shaky Ironblood City collapsed, and the Demon Army swarmed into the city.
Everyone knew that the moment of life and death had arrived.
