The Great Xia road is good, and we even know the way, so send over able-bodied individuals!
Yet, in other countries, they dont even spare the disabled.
Looking around, its either missing limbs or hearing and vision impairments, some not only blind but also missing two legs, pushed over by others. Can such people win a battle?
They cant even walk properly; they can only go to their deaths! Its truly infuriating!
Because of this widespread inclusion of unfit individuals, the total military force of these six small countries has astonishingly reached 3 million!
Among them, there are a million regular troops, tops!
A whopping 2 million are just padding! Seeing this, Lin Beifan became very angry and had to call a meeting to streamline the troops, kicking out those without combat capabilities to serve as logistical personnel for the main army. This reduced the six nations forces to 2 million, but there was still a lot of excess.
Lin Beifan couldnt be bothered anymore. Since you insist on using them as cannon fodder, dont blame me when they hinder us in battle, disregarding the lives of our own people. After making preparations, Lin Beifan led 2.5 million troops forward!
And at this moment, the whole world is watching this battle. On the side of the Great Xia, they are urgently mobilizing their troops, gathering a total of 500,000 troops to defend the frontlines.
However, the Great Xias marshal saw the dense and vast enemy forces coming and despaired immediately! 2.5 million troops, how can we fight this?
Their total national military force is just this number! But they cant send all of them to fight, as some must guard the border fortresses and maintain order in the major cities to prevent civil unrest. Seeing the Alliance Commander Lin Beifan, their despair deepened!
This guy is the best at warfare, especially skilled at winning major battles against stronger and larger forces. In over a year, he has fought several major battles and hasnt suffered a single defeat, rightly earning the title of War God!
Their Great Xia once served under his command! Now hes leading an army of 2.5 million troops, five times their strength. How can they fight this?
The Great Xia marshal sighed silently. Even if they cant win, they must hold on! Because chaos reigns in their homeland, with different factions vying for power in the court, theres no way to organize a strong resistance.
If the Alliance army breaks through the border, they will inevitably advance all the way to the Tiger Mountain (Hulao) Range, and their land will change hands!
The Great Xia marshal loudly declared, Where is the Commander of the Alliance Army, Lin Beifan?
I am here! Lin Beifan rode in on a white horse.
At this moment, he was clad in exquisite silver-white armor, shining brilliantly under the sunlight. This person appeared full of vigor and confidence.
Its worth mentioning that this set of armor is called the Sunlit Holy Martial Armor, specially chosen for him by the Empress. Its relatively lightweight, offers moderate defense, but its main purpose is to look good.
The Great Xia Marshal angrily questioned, Lin Beifan, what is your intention? Are you leading the troops of seven nations to invade our territory? This is an aggressive war! An unjust war! Despite being someone who has read the classics of sages, you are not taking it upon yourself to protect the realm and the people. Instead, youve actively initiated a war, plunging the citizens into distress and suffering. Lin Beifan, what crime should you be charged with?
Lin Beifan, what crime should you be charged with? The Great Xia soldiers echoed.
Lin Beifan sneered, rebuking, Spare me this act! Everyone has the right to say these words, except for your Great Xia! Last year, our Great Wu did not provoke you, yet you still initiated the attack, didnt you? At that time, did you consider the realm and the common people?
The face of the Great Xia Marshal turned ugly, and he couldnt find words to respond.
I vividly remember that we even captured 600,000 Great Xia soldiers back then! Lin Beifan glanced at the soldiers on the city walls and continued to sneer, Take a look, and I see many familiar faces! How is it that youve forgotten so quickly? Forgetting the pain once the scar heals, huh? Its only been a year, and youve forgotten what youve done to yourselves?
The soldiers on the city walls felt deeply ashamed.
Now, were merely using your own methods against you! Lin Beifan rode his horse slowly and continued to reprimand, If we talk about injustice, your Great Xia is the true perpetrator of injustice! After experiencing natural disasters, with heavy casualties among the people, you not only failed to provide aid to the afflicted, but you also enforced brutal oppression!
Your Great Xia Emperor even aimed to concoct an elixir of immortality, neglecting state affairs, and indiscriminately collecting treasures from heaven and earth, stirring up resentment among the populace!
Now, with the Great Xia Emperors passing, the corpse is hardly cold, the court is fighting for the supreme throne, striving for power and wealth, and the result is the displacement and suffering of countless Great Xia citizens, with grievances echoing far and wide!
Lin Beifan shook his head, To be honest, the harm youve caused to the people of Great Xia is much greater than what weve done. You are the true origin of turmoil and disaster! Therefore, we have no choice but to raise our banner high, to rescue the people of Great Xia, and to bring peace to the world! We are avenging injustice, acting in the name of heaven, and fighting for justice!
We act in the name of heaven!
We act in the name of heaven!
The Alliance army shouted loudly, their voices resonating like thunder. The Great Xia soldiers felt disheartened.
As Lin Beifan had said, the harm they inflicted on the Great Xia people was far more severe than that of other nations!
Their country was in chaos, so chaotic that it couldnt be described, providing an opportunity for other nations to exploit. Otherwise, a year ago, would they have dared to launch an attack like this?
As the pursuit continued, Lin Beifan continued to shout loudly, Guarding Great Xia means guarding heinous sins! I advise you to quickly open the city gates and let us in to rescue the common people of Great Xia, lightening the burden of your sins! Otherwise, even if we dont judge you, Heaven will!
The Great Xia Marshal angrily retorted, Its all nonsense! Dont listen to him! If we open the city gates, our people behind us will fall into distress, and the country will be on the brink of collapse! So we must defend the city gates, not give the Alliance army any chance!
At this moment, both sides had exchanged harsh words, and it was time to start the battle. The war enthusiasts by Lin Beifans side were eager and ready.
Commander, how should we fight this battle? Please give us instructions!
For the first battle, leave it to me! Im best at siege warfare. With 500,000 troops at my disposal, I guarantee well capture the city swiftly!
Your reckless behavior is unacceptable! The Commander must have a brilliant strategy in mind.
Commander, do you have a plan? Tell us, well follow your lead!
Commander, please give the order!
Lin Beifan glanced at the more than 50 innate experts beside him and the 2 million-strong army and smiled faintly, What kind of strategy do we need for this battle? Well charge straight in! All innate experts, line up!
All the innate experts immediately stood up and said in unison, Commander, please command!
Lin Beifan shouted loudly, Move out together, break through the gates of Great Xia! Once the city falls, 500,000 Great Wu soldiers will follow, infiltrate the city, and secure key locations! The troops from other countries will follow behind, eliminating any remaining Great Xia forces!
Yes, Commander! The entire army responded in unison.
After giving the order, more than 50 innate experts roared and charged forward, their momentum awe-inspiring.
The Great Xia Marshal, with just one look, was filled with despair. Their entire army had only about ten innate experts in total. How could they withstand more than 50 innate experts? One against two might be barely possible, but one against five, not even if they had nine lives!
If the Great Xia Marshal felt this way, what about the others?
More than 50 innate experts, were finished!
We cant hold them at all!
Lets escape quickly; as long as we save ourselves, there will be hope!
The Great Xia Marshal shouted loudly, No fleeing! As soldiers, we can only die standing, not live kneeling! Pick up your weapons, and even if we die, well die here!
So, all innate experts, all warriors, block them for me! Great Xias strong men also rushed out with a determination to die for their cause.
However, when they encountered the Alliances innate experts, it was like hitting a stone with an egg, utterly unable to withstand them.
In just a moment, Great Xias warriors were all slaughtered!
The city walls were now littered with corpses, their eyes unseeing, and the heavy stench of blood filled the air. This was nothing short of a massacre!
An utterly one-sided massacre.
The Great Xia Marshal was frightened, his face turned pale. Its over! Its truly over!
He had suspected that they would lose this battle, but he hadnt expected it to happen so quickly and so decisively.
With great difficulty, he turned his head and cast a longing gaze behind him at the magnificent mountains and rivers of Great Xia. Then, he raised the blade in his hand and charged towards the 50 innate experts. I will never surrender! Sons and daughters of Great Xia, follow me and fight!
The Great Xia Marshal launched a desperate counterattack, but he was overwhelmed by the 50 innate experts and eventually perished under their siege, leaving behind fragmented remains.
Lin Beifan paid his respects solemnly. Though we served different masters, the unwavering spirit and patriotism of this old general are truly admirable! He is a hero, and he must be given a proper burial.
Yes, Commander!
Next, the 50-plus innate experts ascended the city tower and continued their massacre, leaving no one alive.
Lin Beifan raised his arm and shouted, The city gates are open; the entire army follows me into Great Xia!
With a thunderous boom, the city gates swung open.
Yes, Commander!
Under Lin Beifans leadership, the Alliance army surged into Great Xia.
The news of this battle quickly spread throughout the world, shocking everyone.
Great Xias city gates fell within just one day!
Its actually quite normal! Great Xia only had 500,000 troops and around 10 innate experts! But the Alliance army has 2.5 million troops, over 50 innate experts, and with War God Lin Beifan leading, it was just a matter of time before Great Xias gates fell!
Now, the Alliance has penetrated deep into Great Xias territory! Without any barriers, the Alliance army can advance unhindered, all the way to the White Tiger (Hulao) Mountain Range. The entire Xia territory is on the brink of falling!
If Great Xia cant organize a strong resistance, its done for!
Great Xia is in such chaos right now, with everyone doing their own thing. It looks bleak!
Who could have imagined that in just a years time, Great Xia would fall to this state? Its truly tragic!
The will of heaven is elusive, and the heart of heaven is inscrutable!
