Chapter 942 – Saviors from the Sky
The massacre on the streets of Ganluo City entered the most intense confrontation from the get go.
Six thousand Dragon Legion Corps warriors, under the lead of Lai Hu’er, tried to kill a bloody path out from the enemy formation with courage, iron-like discipline, great combat strength, and morale.
In front of such an iron army, the Swordsman City frontline forces were crushed instantly, which caused Wei Yan to lose face.
“What a bunch of garbage.”
Wei Yan decided that after this, he would focus on training these soldiers.
Talk of training was of course for post battle. Right now, he had no choice but to use his last card. He ordered the archers on the roofs to shoot at the enemy.
The archers looked down from above at the Dragon Legion Corps all clumped up together. They were just targets waiting to be hit.
This time, they were facing enemies from all sides. They were enemies on all four sides and above. Luckily, this was the Dragon Legion Corps. If it were normal soldiers, they would have lost their fighting spirit.
The arrow rain not only caused huge casualties, but it also affected their charging tempo. The charging soldiers could not focus on killing the enemies in front of them.
Maybe a soldier was hacking at the enemy and was about to kill him when a sharp arrow suddenly pierced his chest. Just like that, he died with all the unhappiness and unwillingness in his heart.
The arrow rain could tear apart the Dragon Legion Corps’ defenses at any moment.
The cunning Swordsman City soldiers used the chance to strike out during the gaps when no arrows were fired. Of course, if they were too arrogant and got too deep into the Dragon Legion Corps formation, they would be killed in seconds.
This was a battle of blood against fire; it was either you die or I live.
As this intense battle continued, the thick smell of fresh blood caused the civilians on both sides to be terrified. Their knees felt weak, and they did not even have the courage to peek. If arrows pierced through their windows, they might be killed by accident.
Seeing that, the civilians hid as far away as they could away.
Only the cats and dogs in the houses were excited by this, and they started barking and meowing.
“Stop shouting!”
The owners tried to stop the dogs, but they still continued barking non-stop. The dog’s nose was the most sensitive, and the bloody smell made it really excited. Its eyes even showed streaks of red.
The usually well behaved dogs actually started to reveal their brutal natural. Some owners had no choice but to put their pets to sleep in case something bad happened.
This was called, ‘If the city gate is on fire, the fishes in the pond will die.’
“Dogs!” Lai Hu’er cursed and ordered, “One thousand men hide in the formation and use the god arm crossbows to shoot down their archers.”
“Yes general!”
The moment the order was given, the formation changed.
The thousand soldiers located in the center of the formation put away their spears and Tang Blades and took out their God arm crossbows. They moved forward, back to back as they shot at the archers on both sides.
Although it was a small formation change, in ancient times, it was a really difficult maneuver. If they were not really well trained, they definitely would not have been able to do that.
The god arm crossbow was known for being quick and having a fast shooting speed. The enemy archers hiding above were shot down one by one and tumbled down the roofs. They probably would not survive.
The sudden counter attack caught the archers off guard. They thought that they were fine hiding on the roofs. Who knew that they could die at any moment?
With that, the archers’ had their tempos messed up, while the Dragon Legion Corps was in a better situation. However, with a thousand less elites helping the formation, their speed slowed down.
Under the leadership of Wei Yan, the Swordsman City Army were like ants biting onto the Dragon Legion Corps. They were trying to use their numerical advantage to exchange for a winning chance, and mouth after mouth bit at the formation.
Too many ants could kill an elephant.
Although the Dragon Legion Corps was strong, they were at a numerical and geographical disadvantage. Moreover, the soldiers were totally exhausted after rushing, attacking Ganluo Pass, and wiping out the Garrison Division.
Such a difficult battle was one that even robots could not handle.
Their stamina was quickly depleting, and once it reached a certain level, their combat strength would too. When that happened, the surrounding enemy troops would swarm up and swallow them whole.
Lai Hu’er’s quick advance to claim credit had backfired.
If he had allowed them to rest after taking down Ganluo Pass and did not rush to attack the city, their stamina would not have fallen to such a state.
Although Lai Hu’er was anxious and ashamed, there was nothing he could do. He wanted to slay Wei Yan, but Wei Yan did not give him a chance. He hid behind his army, not daring to show his face.
Such a big battle was one that a single person could not dictate.
The way out for the Dragon Legion Corps was becoming more and more difficult, and more and more soldiers fell. This short central street became the longest road in the world.
At this point, Lai Hu’er did not feel confident about making it out.
Even then, he did not regret waiting for the remaining soldiers to gather, even if they had missed out on the best time to breakout. He grinned, “At most, I’ll die in battle here!”
“The only thing would be disappointing that king.”
Thinking about that young, gentle, but strict king, Lai Hu’er felt guilty.

Wei Yan quietly focused on the battlefield. Seeing that the Dragon Legion Corps’ attacks were not as sharp, he smiled. He could already see victory.
“I win in the end.” Glee could not help but rise up in Wei Yan’s heart.
To be able to kill seven thousand elites of Great Xia was a huge achievement.
“Send my orders. Take turns to engage, do not go all in. Patiently waste their stamina.”
“Yes general!”
As expected from Wei Yan. Even with victory in sight, he did not let it get to his head.
The current Wei Yan was still a patient hunter. He was playing with his prey, making it bleed more and more. However, he did not dare to step up and stab the prey in case he got bitten.
What he needed was a hunter-like patience.
However, such a delay finally gave the Dragon Legion Corps the chance they needed to escape.
Just as they were in dire straits, mechanical sounds broke out from the skies of Ganluo City. Looking up, 25 mimicry flying devices flew toward them.
The sounds were not really obvious in the noisy battlefield, but Lai Hu’er had picked up on it right away.
Seeing the flying devices fly toward them, Lai Hu’er did not know what to think. He naturally felt a glimmer of hope, and he loudly said, “Boys, our reinforcements are here, kill our way out.”
“Kill! Kill! Kill!”
Not only him, but all the other soldiers of the Dragon Legion Corps were fully energized. They were really clear what the Flying Squad reaching Ganluo City meant.
With the cover of the Flying Squad, no one could stop them.

Compared to the joy of the Dragon Legion Corps, Wei Yan’s face turned really ugly. He muttered, “How did this happen?”
This matter started two hours ago.
Per usual, once Lai Hu’er took down Ganluo City, he should have fired a signal bullet to inform the defending troops at the pass. However, after so long, no signal bullet was fired.
This made the defending troops at the pass really uneasy, and they felt that something might have happened in the city.
Following which, they saw the red signal bullet, which represented emergency. The soldiers did not dare to take the matter lightly, so they fired the same signal bullet to inform the troops behind. At the same time, they consolidated their defenses of the pass.
South of Ganluo City was Zhaojue City, which was already taken down by Lai Hu’er.
After working with the vanguard forces to take down Ganluo Pass, the Flying Squad returned to Zhaojue City. When he received the emergency report, Hu Yihuang, who was in charge of the 2nd legion 1st division, realized the gravity of the problem. He immediately ordered the Flying Squad to proceed toward Ganluo City.
At the same time, the 30 thousand middle troops led by him set out toward Ganluo City.
One had to say that the highly efficient communication system and emergency response system had saved Lai Hu’er’s life.
The following battle situation once again entered their tempo.
“Stop our advance, form up on the spot!”
No instructions were needed, as Lai Hu’er knew how to coordinate with the Flying Squad.
“Yes general!”
With a ‘Shua!’ the remaining five thousand Dragon Legion Corps warriors stopped.
When the Swordsman City soldiers saw the actions of their enemy, they were baffled. It was then that they saw the enemy flying devices in the air, flying toward them in the skies above.
“????”
They had faces filled with shock as they saw grenade after grenade being tossed down from the skies. Of course, these soldiers had never seen such advanced equipment before, and in their eyes, these grenades looked like dumplings.
Then the dumplings exploded.
‘Hong! Hong! Hong!’
The Flying Squad caused huge chaos amongst the Swordsman City troops with a move almost like a carpet bombing.
Humans throwing grenades while still in the air made it really inaccurate. Out of 10, there were seven to eight that missed.
As such, Lai Hu’er told them to stop in case they got caught in friendly fire.
To make matters worse, the surrounding buildings were also hit, and numerous innocent civilians died.
But no one would bother about that.
“Archers, fire, shoot them down!”
Wei Yan had really strong mental strength, and he recovered really quickly. He ordered the archers on the roofs to shoot the flying devices.
Some actually succeeded.
To raise the accuracy of the grenades, the flying devices had to slow down to make it easier to throw the grenades. However, the cabins were lacking in terms of defense.
There were actually grenadiers or pilots that were shot.
If the grenadier died, they would not be able to attack but that was not a big issue.
On the other hand, if the pilot was shot, the situation would be bad. The flying device that lost control would crash into the streets or buildings.
One had to say that the innocent civilians would be hit once more.
