Drawing Cards in the Middle Ages to Rise in Ranks-Chapter 345 - 37: Born to Die, Strive to Live (Part 2)
They will execute any command from Losa without hesitation!
As the horn sounded, the Imperial Knights, previously slightly hindered in their charge, accelerated once more. At this point, only one cavalry detachment stood between them and Wanyan Wuju!
When the third cavalry detachment faced this blood-soaked "Song Army Cavalry," their gaze met the golden mask worn by the enemy general, and an immediate sense of fear arose.
It was as if this blood-soaked "Song Army Cavalry," wielding Wolf Fang Clubs, clad in Chain Armor and wielding Warhammers, with horse armor covered in Silver Armor, had emerged straight from Hell.
The enemy general leading the charge, with a Dragon Head Cloak on his back, seemed to come alive from afar, resembling a Dragon Head with fleshy wings roaring skyward.
For a moment, their morale was severely shaken without even engaging the enemy.
This was the combined effect of Losa’s Dragon Mighty and the "Frightening" effect of the mask helmet.
Wanyan Wuju’s expression was stern: "Is this the beast spirit summoned by the Shaman?"
He drew the saber at his waist and shouted loudly, "Such a petty beast spirit dares to act arrogantly before me, Wanyan Wuju! Once I find your lair, I’ll destroy your temple and flay you alive!"
Although the Jin Kingdom’s destiny is not long-lasting, currently, it is in its heyday, with Dragon Qi abundantly present.
Wanyan Wuju, or Wanyan Zongbi, is the fourth son of the Jin Kingdom’s Emperor, Wanyan Aguda, surrounded by considerable Dragon Qi.
At this moment, he activated and manifested a massive Black Dragon, soaring up from the black and red banner behind him and making a silent roar toward the place where Losa was, challenging the Western Demon Dragon that moved with him.
This immediately provoked the shadow of the Demon Dragon revealed by Losa’s Dragon Mighty, causing its originally ethereal body to solidify, with scales and claws becoming lifelike.
Upon closer inspection, it appeared to have a head reminiscent of a Tyrannical Dragon, a slender body like a Sea Dragon, and grotesque fleshy wings... Though somewhat unsightly, its aura rose, becoming equal to the Destiny Black Dragon flying alongside Wanyan Wuju.
Yet, now the morale of the originally demoralized cavalry detachment awoke, silently shaming their cowardice, and under Mengan’s leadership, they fiercely spurred their horses toward the nearby enemy.
They learned from the lessons of the previous two detachments, forming a thicker formation, like snapping chopsticks in two and stacking them again, determined to annihilate those who dared challenge them!
Fifty against a thousand!
Such a stark disparity in numbers, ancient seas consumed by sand.
In an instant, the Imperial Knights and their Double-headed Eagle Banner seemed to vanish like pebbles thrown into the sea.
...
On the city walls, Liu Bowu gazed from afar. His previously boiling blood suddenly cooled.
Tears unknowingly filled his eyes.
"General Ha is gone."
The County Captain sighed: "Only General Da remains. I hope she returns alive."
At this moment, he no longer cared about the identity of Losa and these "barbarians." Anyone witnessing such a fearless, death-defying army would feel respect.
Arrogance is foolishness.
To dare challenge fate is courage.
They all knew that Losa and his cavalry understood the might of the Jin Kingdom’s Iron Cavalry; they were not arrogant or thoughtlessly marching hundreds against thousands, but had already disregarded life and death.
The County Magistrate sighed: "Once this affair ends, I will petition the government to posthumously honor General Ha and his soldiers; to write a book for them, to inscribe their deeds."
Everyone knew that even if these Jin soldiers won, they could no longer threaten Qingshui County; their families could avoid being captured and slaughtered.
They themselves would find safety.
It should have been a joyful event, yet no one could laugh.
Even the timid and cowardly defense troops seemed to gain some courage, daring to peek from the battlements and aim their arrows at the distant enemy, feebly yet persistently.
Even if from time to time someone was hit by an accurately shot arrow from the enemy below the city. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
Liu Bowu muttered softly: "Why?"
"Why is it?"
His voice rose sharply.
No one could explain his bewilderment.
Each person harbored deep questions and confusion.
Why did General Ha fight desperately for these foreigners? Was it truly out of moral purity, unwilling to see civilians slaughtered if the city fell, so he came to help the weak?
Or could it be that General Ha and his soldiers were, in fact, border troops defending their homeland, fulfilling their duty to serve their ruler by their actions today?
They couldn’t comprehend.
But even though they couldn’t understand, the courage they found within was undeniable.
...
Jeanne had no time to concern herself with the developments on Losa’s side.
Between her and her cavalry’s charge path towards the Foot Iron Guard, there was only a single cavalry detachment.
As both sides approached.
Winged Cavalry, Monastic Knights, Armored Archers, and the newly formed Scout Cavalry unit all raised their lances, shouting to charge against the enemy!
