Chapter 341: Victory
September 25, 2017
"Gao Shun, confiscate their weapons and control the captives."
"Zhao Gang, assist Wang Ti. Gather all the captives under the fort walls. Anyone who dares to resist will be executed without mercy."
Although the system notification had not yet arrived, the battle at this point was essentially over.
After Lu Hai Kong issued the orders, he led Pan Feng and the Royal Guard Corps towards the remaining enemy on the battlefield.
After a night of chaotic fighting, Zhang Yan's Zhang Family Army, though still numbering over a thousand, was mostly wounded.
This once-proud first army of Bingzhou now only had their injuries to show for their former glory and arrogance.
However, upon seeing Lu Hai Kong's group approaching, the Zhang Family Army maintained a defensive stance, despite their battered state. Their eyes still held a fierce determination and battle intent, proving them to be a qualified and elite force.
The Royal Guard Corps halted a few dozen meters away from the enemy, and Lu Hai Kong stepped forward with Pan Feng. He waved at Zhang Yan, who stood among the enemy forces.
"Let's chat." His tone was casual, as if he had just bumped into an acquaintance on the street.
Zhang Yan's brows furrowed within the Zhang Family Army, but he eventually stepped out.
"I'm curious. Why did you suddenly make such a big move? We were doing fine with our business. Why stir up such a storm, causing so many deaths? What's the point?"
Lu Hai Kong's tone was calm, but to Zhang Yan, it sounded grating. Zhang Yan's forehead veins popped, but as a defeated warrior, what could he say?
"Oh, you're angry? It seems I'm not good at chatting. I was just expressing my surprise; I meant no insult." Lu Hai Kong's expression grew serious. "Please, tell me, what are the Zhang Family's intentions?"
"Give me an answer, and I'll let you leave. Without an answer, you'll all stay here today!"
Lu Hai Kong couldn't understand why the Zhang Family had suddenly acted so aggressively, and he couldn't reach Zhang He. So, he posed the question to Zhang Yan.
He wanted to find the crux of the issue. Although Lu Hai Kong wasn't afraid of war, he preferred to avoid it when possible.
However, Lu Hai Kong had approached the wrong person, or perhaps the timing was wrong. As a defeated warrior, Zhang Yan was in no mood to answer Lu Hai Kong's question. In Zhang Yan's eyes, Lu Hai Kong wasn't asking a question but was trying to embarrass him.
So, Zhang Yan didn't respond. With a grim face, he returned to the Zhang Family Army and waved his hand at Lu Hai Kong, issuing a direct command!
"Kill!"
For Zhang Yan, this defeat equated to a personal failure. Even if he returned alive, he would face various punishments and schemes. So, he preferred to die in battle rather than live with defeat.
"Stubbornness won't save you, Pan Feng, take him down!" Lu Hai Kong ordered.
"Leave it to me!"
Pan Feng excitedly waved his Ghost Mask Axe and led the Royal Guard Corps into the fray.
"Follow me, you pups!"
Instantly, Pan Feng activated both 'Army Intimidation' and 'Supreme General Unmatched' and charged with his 1,500-strong mountain bandit guards.
On the other side, Zhang Yan also activated his general trait, which was similar to Pan Feng's 'Army Intimidation'. It increased morale and boosted soldier combat effectiveness, known as 'Iron Blood Battle Will'. In terms of sheer combat power, Zhang Yan's side seemed slightly stronger.
But when the two legions clashed, the overwhelming advantage was immediately apparent.
Pan Feng's soldiers included numerous elite mountain bandit guards, whose combat prowess far surpassed that of the Zhang Family Army. Despite both sides enduring a night of bloody combat, the Royal Guard Corps were in much better shape than the Zhang Family Legion. From the start, they overwhelmed their opponents.
Meanwhile, Pan Feng and Zhang Yan engaged in a fierce duel. On the battlefield, Zhang Yan was still being crushed.
Even though Zhang Yan's strength value reached 83, three points higher than Pan Feng's, the latter activated 'Supreme General Unmatched', skyrocketing his combat power to the level of 85. He also had the buff of 'Infinite Stamina'. From the beginning, Pan Feng dominated the fight.
However, Zhang Yan's spear skills were impressive. Despite being at a disadvantage, he stubbornly held his ground against Pan Feng's attacks, even displaying a counterattacking spirit.
Though Zhang Yan stood firm, his Zhang Family Army couldn't match up. Despite their trait advantages, they were overwhelmed by the Royal Guard Corps.
Moreover, Lu Hai Kong, standing nearby, commanded the Royal Guard Corps. Although he didn't physically join the fight, his leadership ensured the Royal Guard Corps, already dominant, completely defeated the Zhang Family Legion.
In the 1619 Book, there's a mistake-free version!
In less than half an hour, the Royal Guard Corps slaughtered over a thousand Zhang Family soldiers, leaving only Zhang Yan still resisting on the battlefield.
Seeing that Lu Hai Kong had wiped out the Zhang Family Army, Pan Feng couldn't contain his anger. He unleashed the 'Mountain Splitting Axe Technique', each swing of his axe more brutal than the last.
Lu Hai Kong had also learned the 'Mountain Splitting Axe Technique'. Recently, he and Pan Feng had been studying this axe technique together.
Perhaps due to Lu Hai Kong's talent aura, Pan Feng's 'Mountain Splitting Axe Technique' had been rapidly improving. Currently, it had reached the 29th level.
At this moment, facing such a formidable opponent as Zhang Yan, Pan Feng's 'Mountain Splitting Axe Technique' showed signs of breaking through.
For this reason, Lu Hai Kong stood by, watching without any intention to intervene. He was waiting for Pan Feng's skill to break through, confident in Pan Feng's talent.
Sure enough, after thirty or forty exchanges, Pan Feng's momentum surged. He swung his Ghost Mask Axe with increased ferocity.
It was the same attack, but this time, the axe's whooshing sound seemed slightly louder, its speed slightly faster, and its momentum slightly stronger.
Everything was just a little stronger, yet it seemed to have crossed into another realm. Facing Pan Feng's axe, Zhang Yan couldn't dodge or block it.
In an instant, Pan Feng's axe cleaved through Zhang Yan's long spear, sending him flying and hitting his armor.
At that moment, Lu Hai Kong's system notification arrived as promised...
