Chapter 2714 A Mayfly Shaking a Tree, Swords and Horses
"Brothers, think of your parents, wives and children, and follow me to kill them all!" As the voice fell again, Fu Cunshen, imitating An Xiuxiu, charged forward without looking back.
There was a moment of silence behind me. That moment was very short, as short as a heartbeat, yet very long, as long as a century.
Then, someone cursed something, drew his knife, and followed. One person, then two, then ten; the footsteps went from sparse to dense, and the shouts of battle went from intermittent to continuous.
Fu Cunshen didn't turn around, but he heard it.
He heard footsteps catching up, heard those voices rising, and heard the Han army behind him, who had been confused and hesitant, surge forward like water bursting its banks.
Ahead, An Xiuxiu had already reached Jiang Hou's side. His weapon had long been lost in the previous battle, and he was clutching a spear that he had taken from someone else. He was covered in blood, and it was impossible to tell whether it was his own or someone else's.
He saw Jiang Hou in front of him, and the large banner with the character "Jiang" above his head. He raised his spear and charged in that direction.
"Ding, Jiang Hou's Divine Hou skill effect two activated, Divine Hou Howling Sky. After this skill effect is activated, all negative skill effects of the user are doubled. An Xiuxiu's current combat power has decreased to..."
"A mayfly trying to shake a tree, utterly ignorant of its own mortality!" Jiang Hou snorted coldly, not even glancing at the spear thrusting towards him, while his Heavenly Fiend Blade was already raised high.
An Xiuxiu's spear pierced Jiang Hou's chest, the spearhead striking the armor with a dull "crack," like hitting a piece of raw iron, making An Xiuxiu's hand go numb.
The spear shaft bent like a bow, but it didn't pierce in even an inch. Jiang Hou's clothes tore at the chest, revealing the dark, hardened skin and flesh beneath, which was formed by his protective internal energy. The white mark disappeared in an instant.
With Jiang Hou's physical strength, even if he just stood there and let the opponent hit him, the opponent wouldn't be able to do anything to him in a short time.
Therefore, without even lifting his eyelids, Jiang Hou brought down the Heavenly Fiend Blade in his hand.
There were no fancy moves, just a simple slash. The blade cleaved in from An Xiuxiu's left shoulder, sliced diagonally across her chest, and exited from below her right ribs, clean and crisp, like chopping a piece of firewood.
An Xiuxiu's body stiffened. He looked down at his chest, where a diagonal knife wound ran from his left shoulder to his right rib. Blood first appeared as a thin line, then suddenly gushed out.
He opened his mouth as if to say something, but only spat out a mouthful of blood. The spear slipped from his fingers, fell to the ground, and rolled twice.
An Xiuxiu raised her head and took one last look at Jiang Hou. Jiang Hou had already sheathed his sword and stood there, like a wall, like a mountain, like the most unshakeable thing in the world.
An Xiuxiu's lips twitched, as if he wanted to laugh or curse. Then his body went limp, and he fell off his horse, landing face down at Jiang Hou's feet, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Jiang Hou killed An Xiuxiu with a single stroke, and before the blood droplets on the blade could even fall to the ground, he sheathed his sword and stood there expressionless.
"Kill them all! Exterminate all those who are stubbornly resisting!"
Jiang Hou waved his hand, his tone calm, as if he were giving a perfectly ordinary order. The Qian army soldiers behind him had been waiting impatiently, and at this command, they surged forth like water bursting from a dam.
Fu Cunshen was at the forefront. He saw An Xiuxiu fall from his horse and saw him lying motionless at Jiang Hou's feet.
His eyes reddened, but he didn't stop, not even a moment later. "Kill!"
Fu Cunshen's voice was so hoarse that it was almost inaudible, but the figure still crashed straight into the Qian army's formation.
The Han soldiers behind him followed him, one, two, ten, dozens, hundreds and thousands. Those who were just hesitant, fearful and desperate were now as if they had been ignited by something, their eyes red, and they rushed forward with Fu Cunshen.
Knives slashed, guns stabbed, men fell, and those behind stepped over their fallen comrades to keep charging forward. There was no formation, no strategy, just brute force, a reckless, suicidal ferocity.
Fu Cunshen didn't know how many times he had slashed, nor how many times he had been slashed. He couldn't lift his left arm anymore; blood streamed down his sleeve, staining his entire arm a dark red. But he kept charging forward, still shouting, still killing.
Jiang Wang, who was high up, looked at all of this and frowned slightly, not out of worry, but out of annoyance.
These people were clearly doomed, clearly had no chance of turning the tide, yet they were still struggling, like a group of snakes whose tails had been stepped on, still trying to bite back before they died.
"Come with me, all of you surround them!" Jiang Wang ordered the guards on either side of him.
Immediately, he prepared to lead his several hundred personal guards down the slope to join the battle.
While the archers positioned on both flanks could inflict heavy casualties on the Han army below from their elevated position, once the two sides were completely locked in a chaotic melee, continuing to fire arrows would also cause significant friendly fire casualties.
"Ding! Jiang Wang's Golden Spear skill activated."
Jin Ge: With swords and spears, and a fierce and powerful spirit, generals skilled in field battles have a certain probability of awakening this skill. The effects of awakened skills vary from person to person.
Effect 1: When used as the main general, Command +1, Intelligence +1, Strength +2.
Effect 2: When in the field, Command +2, Intelligence +2, Strength +2.
Effect 3: When fighting enemies outside of the Qian Dynasty, if the opponent's base leadership value is lower than yours, reduce the opponent's intelligence value by 1 to 3 points.
Effect 4: When in the field, it can greatly improve the morale, combat power, and speed of the entire army. On this basis, if fighting against enemies outside of the Qian Dynasty and the army is in an absolute advantage, it can increase the total strength of the entire army by 1 point.
Effect 5: When on the same battlefield as the user of the 'Iron Horse' skill and both activate simultaneously, the combo skill 'Golden Horse and Iron Cavalry' can be triggered.
As a renowned young talent in the Great Qian Dynasty, Jiang Wang's skill effects are quite good, although the amplification is not high under other conditions, and sometimes there may be no amplification at all.
However, if you are the commander-in-chief and in the field, you can get a 3-point boost to both your intelligence and leadership stats, which is quite significant.
His skills also include army-wide skill effects. Although the activation conditions are strict, especially the condition of "absolute advantage," which greatly reduces the practicality of the skill effect, the strategic significance of the army-wide skill effect always exists.
With the added effect of combo skills, this commander skill is already quite comprehensive.
"Ding! Jiang Wang's Golden Spear skill effect activated..."
