Chapter 1238 All-Out Battle
Zhang Jun saw the battle from afar and laughed, "The number of demon troops is only 50 million, but he has nearly 100 million private soldiers. Although the demon army used chariots, they were still beaten and fled despite their superior numbers. They are really useless."
Yuwen Jinghua was very calm and said, "Don't rush to take action. Don't you think this is a bit strange? Tianhou just robbed a large number of their chariots, and this demon king came with his troops. Isn't he afraid that Tianhou will take action again? Unless he has a way to deal with Tianhou, he will never dare to go deep into our army's hinterland and be fearless."
After listening to Yuwen Jinghua's analysis, Zhongyong Hou and Beiyuan Hou suddenly realized and said in unison, "There is an ambush!"
Zhang Jun laughed, "Interesting, I want to know what trap the demon army has prepared for me."
Until the demon army approached, Zhang Jun took out the Shenlong bow, put an arrow on the string, and aimed at the demon king who led the demon army. The leaders of the various tribes of the demon clan are called demon kings. They are obviously different from ordinary demon soldiers. For example, they ride on king-level chariots, are tall, and have great pomp, etc., and they can often be recognized at a glance.
The demon king targeted by Zhang Jun was sitting in the chariot. However, the chariot is hollow, and arrows can easily penetrate it.
"Really!"
The string was loosened, and the arrow arrived in an instant. However, the demon king was extremely alert. The moment Zhang Jun pulled the string, he felt something and looked over here suddenly. The moment before the arrow arrived, he suddenly rushed out of the chariot and roared in the direction of Zhang Jun.
Zhang Jun smiled and said, "It's interesting, then take another arrow from me!"
This time he used the power of the Human Emperor Seal, and with the help of the power of faith, he easily broke through one million Jing. One million and one hundred thousand Jing, one million and two hundred thousand Jing, and finally a dragon head lit up. After the first fierce head lit up, this dragon bow had a more powerful one, lock shape!
Before the arrow was shot, a terrible force affected the law. The demon king was startled again and turned around to flee.
"Really!"
The arrow was shot out of the string and arrived in an instant. However, this time, the arrow locked his position and could accurately hit his back no matter how he changed.
"Boom!"
The arrow was so powerful that the demon king's body exploded directly, and his body and soul were destroyed. Once the demon king died, the entire demon army lost their fighting spirit. They no longer pursued and retreated in an orderly manner. Zhang Jun gave an order and ordered ten newly manufactured eighth-generation light armors to fight. The eighth-generation light armor was equivalent to the strength of the Taoist master, and a large number of casualties would be caused by one move.
Moreover, whenever they encountered a chariot, the ten eighth-generation light armors would definitely snatch the chariot first. There was still no movement in the demon army, so Zhang Jun sent out thirty-six seventh-generation light armors, still killing people and snatching chariots. He wanted to see how patient those who set up the ambush were.
The demon army had a total of more than 600 chariots, and half of them were looted soon, and a large number of demon soldiers were also killed and injured. Moreover, the princes who had been chased to death before also led the counterattack and shouted. After all, there were hundreds of millions of troops, and the lethality was still extremely strong, causing great damage to the demon army.
"Humph, you still don't come out? Well, let's make it more lively." Zhang Jun waved his hand, and 300,000 Seven Killing Light Armors also went out, and corpses were everywhere.
If this continues, the demon army will be annihilated in less than half an hour. Finally, when nearly one-third of the demon army died and the combat power was plundered, the earth suddenly shook, and a large world portal appeared. A large number of demon soldiers rushed out from it, and there were at least ten demon kings leading the troops. It was another charge!
The princes who rushed up with a roar were dumbfounded for a moment, and hurriedly shouted: "Retreat! Retreat immediately!" Then they continued to run away.
Zhang Jun snorted coldly, pulled up the Shenlong Bow, and shouted: "Little Demon, take action!"
"Boom!"
The void shook, and a majestic portal appeared, which was the puppet world of the little demon. The puppet army rushed out, the 100 million Tianman troops that were refined at the beginning, the creatures of the entire Blood Soul World, and the millions of barbarians were all here. The puppets were not afraid of life and death, and rushed forward. And wherever the puppet army went, roots continued to emerge in the void, turning one demon soldier after another into new puppets.
The ten demon kings originally wanted to ambush and kill Zhang Jun in one fell swoop, but they didn't expect Zhang Jun to be so patient and destroy their vanguard troops. There was no way, they had to rush out, but they didn't expect to encounter such a powerful puppet army!
These puppet armies were directly controlled by Xiao Mo, so just like Xiao Qiang controlling the light armor, these puppets could skillfully perform the third killing array or even the seven killing array, forcing the ten demon kings not to dare to approach.
"Really!"
At this moment, Zhang Jun's Shenlong Bow also moved, and with the power of the Human Emperor Seal, he shot the lock-shaped arrow again.
"Puff!"
A demon king was shot in the head, and the rest of the demon kings changed color and retreated.
"Really!"
The second demon king was shot in the head. Facing the killing power caused by millions of Jing's huge forces, not to mention the people at the level of the master of Fajue Dao, even Mr. Kunwu and his ilk would have to retreat and dare not pull hard.
After shooting three lock-shaped arrows in a row, Zhang Jun felt that he was exhausted. He put away the Shenlong bow, let out a long roar, and rushed forward with the killing spear. Wherever the spear pointed, thunder struck wildly, and large groups of demons were killed. On his left and right, three million royal guards formed a killing formation to protect him.
The lord who escaped twice before was stunned. How come the situation was reversed again in an instant? Would there be danger this time? He hesitated again and again, gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, and roared: "Charge!"
At the same time, Beiyuan Hou and Zhongyong Hou also joined the battle. And other lords nearby saw that it was profitable, and they drove their troops to kill, surrounding the demon army.
"Golden Spear Hou is here, kill!"
"Divine Sword Hou is here, the demon army will die!"
"Jiang Yue Hou is here, the demon army will die!"
The puppet army died in large numbers, but there were also large numbers of new puppets born, and the creatures released in the demon world were consumed in large numbers. More than a dozen demon kings were killed by Zhang Jun, and some were injured, and they all hid in the center of the army.
"Thousands of changes!"
When the killing was in full swing, Zhang Jun roared wildly, performed a secret method, and turned into a golden dragon, spewing thunder and lightning, and drawing water and clouds. Often a dragon swinging its tail can kill thousands of demon warriors. The army was in high spirits, howling and charging. Especially the three hundred guards, they cooperated precisely, like a killing machine, constantly advancing, strangling, leaving a road of flesh and blood behind them.
Hundreds of mythical ancient cannons were not idle either, constantly bombarding the opponent's big world portal, trying to destroy it. Several demon kings had to defend with all their strength for this, and had no energy to arrange an attack.
Half an hour passed quickly, and the demon army suffered heavy losses, and finally blew the horn of retreat. At this moment, Zhang Jun's soldiers had killed more than 150 million demon soldiers. More than 3,500 chariots were looted, and five demon kings were killed! In comparison, the losses on their side were minimal, and the puppets were quickly replenished. Only more than 30,000 light armors were damaged, and they could be replenished soon. The three million guards had only a few minor injuries, and they could recover after a few days of rest.
As for those peripheral princes, at most they played a role in strengthening the momentum, and the combat power they brought was really limited. Moreover, many princes only shouted and shouted on the periphery, but did not really rush forward to kill.
Zhang Jun didn't care about these. The bodies were all in his hands. Military merits were counted by the heads, so it was useless to talk too much. Of course, now that he was so powerful, he had won battle after battle, and he was also the Marquis of Guantian Army. Others would never dare to snatch his military merits. But for the Marquis of Beiyuan and the Marquis of Zhongyong, Zhang Jun was very generous and gave them tens of millions of bodies to report their military merits.
In this battle, Zhang Jun officially became famous in the northwest. No one didn't know that the Marquis of Guantian had resisted two general attacks by the demon army and killed hundreds of millions of enemies!
So far, Zhang Jun also began to officially station military camps on the west line and build the marshal's tent. On the one hand, he counted the casualties, and on the other hand, he reported to the court to claim merits. The court responded quickly. The military merits reported on the first day were rewarded on the second day. The generous reward this time made all the princes and military marquises jealous.
One trillion and eight hundred billion spirit crystals! A piece of Yuanshi ranked thirteenth on the Yuanshi list, named "Tiger Roar Stone"! In addition, there are 100 million sets of fine armor, 500 million sets of fine bows and arrows, and several other rewards.
Even Zhang Jun was a little surprised by the large number of rewards. Now he found that Emperor Xia was indeed a man who would reward meritorious service. Especially in terms of military merit, as long as he made great contributions, he would never feel bad when rewarding. This also indirectly reflects the huge pressure on Emperor Xia from the Western Front, and he urgently hopes that the situation can be improved. And undoubtedly, the previous achievements gave him hope, so he rewarded them generously. Even Beiyuan Hou, Zhongyong Hou, and those princes who played soy sauce also received corresponding rewards.
In the Guantian Hou camp, the newly recruited 100 million soldiers began to take turns to go out for actual combat, and now there are 100 million soldiers stationed outside. They were naturally happy that the Marquis received rewards, and they all hoped to get some money. And Zhang Jun was indeed generous, and each soldier was given at least 100 spirit crystals.
Zhang Jun, Yuwen Jinghua, Beiyuan Hou, Zhongyong Hou, and another Shanhe Hou were also in the big tent. Shanhe Hou was the one who led an army of 100 million but was chased by the demon army. But he was a smart man. After this battle, he decided that Zhang Jun was his lucky star. After consulting Zhongyong Hou and Beiyuan Hou, he immediately joined Zhang Jun.
In fact, it is not uncommon in the northwest for a smaller lord to join a stronger lord to achieve the goal of quickly gaining military merit. For example, Lingtian Hou has more than a dozen lords under his command. Of course, if Zhang Jun gets military merit, he must give them some of it so that he can keep him.
Shanhe Hou was very polite to Zhang Jun. When everyone got familiar with each other, he asked curiously: "Yun Hou, what is in the 'Tiger Roar Stone' awarded by Emperor Xia? The brothers are very curious. Can we solve it right here and now?"
