Chapter 296 Times Have Changed

Zhou family, the parade ground at the gate, the troops gathered, a scene of killing. Google search reading

Zhou Canglong stood at the front, wearing standard armor, holding a broadsword in his hand, looking quite imposing.

The servants of the Zhou family were all behind him, there were many people, and it looked bustling, each wearing leather armor, holding weapons in their hands, or summoning their own beasts on the side, showing full posture.

The Zhou family did not have any Star-level strongmen, but there were a few Eternal-level ones, but Zhou Canglong did not transfer them over, and they all stayed in their own property.

"Master, the Lord is on his way here." In the distance, the servant riding the beast came to report, looking a little nervous, "He brought the Jingzhe Army, a total of 1,000 people, a cavalry team."

"Okay." Hearing this, Zhou Canglong just responded and tightened the broadsword in his hand.

He seemed to have some illusions, feeling that he was actually somewhat similar to the great general on the battlefield who was a man standing alone against thousands of men. He unconsciously straightened his chest, shrugged his shoulders, and put on the appearance of holding a sword and standing on his horse.

Snap, Snap.

Soon, at the other end of the road, neat footsteps sounded, and Ye Fan appeared riding the Flame Devouring Hellhound, still with the iconic black sword, a black suit, and a cold look.

Today's God, perhaps because of the growth of strength and power, has already faintly shown his power. When he walked over from that end, many people had a flash of fear in their eyes.

Behind Ye Fan, there were a thousand Jingzhe troops, all riding iron-horned violent rhinos wearing neat armor. The silver dragon logo on the killing weapons in their hands seemed to bounce back cold light. They have already got the latest match. In addition to the killing weapons, they are also equipped with all-silver spears called forbidden, which are also all weapons inlaid with alchemical technology.

The strength of the Jingzhe troops is uneven, but basically they are at the silver level. Chen Peng is slightly higher, barely reaching the gold level, but the years of honing in the secret realm have given them an iron-blooded temperament.

The atmosphere was cramped and cold. The army stopped 500 meters away from the Zhou family's parade ground. Ye Fan rode on the Flame Devouring Hellhound and just looked at Zhou Canglong in the distance quietly.

The two sides were in opposition, and the Jingzhe Army did not move, but many of the Zhou family's servants were somewhat panicked.

It was not the first time they had seen the Jingzhe Army. Facing it at such a close distance, they felt a strong sense of oppression.

This imperial army, which belonged to Ye Fan, had the best combination, enough to ignore the armor of ordinary muskets, weapons of killing gold, and mounts starting from silver. This thousand-man army was already better equipped than some of the front-line armies.

Zhou Canglong naturally felt the uneasiness of many servants behind him, but he was holding a big knife at the moment, and he was full of energy.

"Minister Tian Gong, this is the Zhou family's residence. May I ask if Tian Gong brought the army here for an important matter?"

"Are you not clear whether there is an important matter?" Ye Fan just asked back, and his slightly cold voice spread.

Zhou Canglong's face froze slightly, but soon he straightened his back, "God, if you want to investigate the Zhou family, I, Zhou Canglong, will never agree."

"I know you won't agree." Ye Fan still answered indifferently, "So I brought the army here."

"God wants to go to war?" Zhou Canglong asked back, "In Nange City, my Zhou family, but..."

"What glorious past can a traitor talk about?" Ye Fan waved his hand and interrupted Zhou Canglong halfway through his words.

"Treason?" Zhou Zanglong was stunned by this. "Where do you get the evidence to say I'm treasoning?"

"Yes, holding private soldiers and resisting official inspections, isn't this treason?" Ye Fan replied, with a slight smile on his face. "Master Zhou, you don't think you're a hero of the resistance army, do you?"

"I have the authorization of the governor. Now I represent the officials of Nange City. You are leading troops to resist in such a high-profile manner. If it's not treason, what is it?"

"Why do you say I'm treasoning? You are the number one person who holds private soldiers!" Zhou Zanglong was a little angry. "You should wear this hat yourself!"

"I didn't say I wouldn't wear it." Ye Fan replied, snorting slightly.

"But who will let me wear this hat? You, do you have the qualifications?"

Zhou Zanglong was choked again. At this moment, looking at Ye Fan's cold eyes and the murderous Jingzhe Army, he realized it belatedly and felt a little fear.

"You..." Zhou Zanglong opened his mouth and found that his lips were a little dry. He was about to purse his lips when he found Ye Fan raising his hand.

This was a very dangerous posture. In an instant, Zhou Zanglong saw the members of the Jingzhe Army behind Ye Fan loading their weapons and holding them flat in front of their chests.

He really dared to start a war.

At this moment, a feeling of extreme danger surged into Zhou Zanglong's mind, and the hair on his body almost stood up all at once.

"God, you really didn't think about the consequences of doing this?" At the moment of shock, Zhou Zanglong retreated and blocked his chest with the big knife in his hand.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The next moment, dense gunfire rang out at this moment. The terrifying lethality of the killing weapon was maximized on this flat ground. In an instant, many blood mists burst out in the Zhou family's formation. Zhou Zanglong retreated quickly, but was also hit by several shots and was instantly overturned to the ground.

Without enough armor, at such a close distance, these people were completely live targets.

Under the dense artillery fire, there seemed to be no difference between the gold level, silver level, beastmasters, and warriors. This battle turned into a one-sided crushing from the moment the shooting started.

The massacre was going on at this moment. After several rounds of horse archery, the Zhou family's defense line was easily destroyed. A terrifying wailing sounded, and many people looked at the sky with fear in their eyes.

Not only did he dare, but he also had no hesitation. Before he arrived, he might have been prepared for this massacre.

"This is the path you chose yourself. Don't blame others."

Ye Fan naturally saw the eyes of these people, but there was no fluctuation. He watched batches of people fall under the gunfire. After a long while, he finally raised his hand again.

"Charge, leave no one alive."

Boom.

"Roar!"

The order fell. At the front of the team, Chen Peng stood up with a spear, the alchemical weapon shone, and the mount under his crotch neighed. He got off the horse, and then many iron-horned rhinos followed.

This is a fully armored beast. At this moment, the charge of thousands of cavalry seems like a small earthquake.

Heavy cavalry, the most terrifying driving force on the battlefield, at this moment, the charge began, and the battle was declared over.

The wailing sounded, and Ye Fan just rode on the Flame-Eating Hellhound, looking at the massacre calmly.

He had seen bloodshed that was countless times more tragic than this, and it could no longer stir up any waves.

Soon, the battle came to an end, the training ground calmed down, and there was no sound anymore. Chen Peng raised his hand from the army, holding Zhou Zanglong's head, and shouted to Ye Fan:

"God, the head of the Zhou family has been killed!"

"Yes."

Ye Fan replied, looking at the battlefield that seemed to have turned into scorched earth, and paused for a while, as if thinking about something.

To be honest, the Zhou family's power is not bad, and these more than 5,000 people are also a good force, but it is a pity that they don't have Chen Changsheng and such armed forces.

Battlefield chess, before reaching the Star Glory level, can still be within the rules if you can't ignore the guns. Low-level battles are still fought with the firepower and equipment of both sides. No matter how strong a gold-level is, how many muskets can he take? What's more, his troops are armed with the most advanced guns.

"More than 5,000 troops are all warriors and beastmasters. In normal times, they may be a force that cannot be underestimated."

"Unfortunately, my army is no longer a traditional army. What's the use of holding a big knife? I earn so much money, don't I know to give my troops a better set of leather armor?"

After a while, Ye Fan spoke, as if he was summarizing this one-sided massacre, riding on the Flame Devouring Hellhound, and slowly turned around.

He left, his back stretched out very long in the sunset, and gradually sank to the end of the horizon, and then for a long time, a voice that seemed like a eulogy came.

"Times have changed, Zhou Canglong."
