Chapter 504: Bon Kha! The Secret Manual of the Great Snow Mountain! (1/2)
Silence, absolute silence!
All around the battlefield were faces as pale as snow. All the Tibetans had been struck dumb by this sight.
”Milord…”
”How is this possible?”
”How could this be? This is impossible!”
……
A moment ago, their commander had been pressing down on that Great Tang expert, but in the next moment, his head had been severed, his corpse lying on the floor. The discrepancy was so great that the morale of the Tibetans watching this fight completely collapsed.
It's over! Wang Chong mentally said with a cold sneer, then drew back his gaze.
He had the insight and experience of a Saint Martial realm expert, lacking only the strength. But Li Siye did have the adequate strength. If the two of them working together still weren't able to kill that Tibetan commander, then that Tibetan really would have something to be proud about.
Someone who not even the future War Saint and Invincible Great General of the Great Tang could defeat truly deserved to be arrogant.
Alas, Li Siye still hasn't matured enough! Otherwise, my help wouldn't have been necessary.
As this thought flew through Wang Chong's mind, he quickly turned around and waved his hand.
”Old Eagle, hurry up and finish off your opponent!”
The Tibetan commander had been killed, the world-famous Echelon Formation had been broken, and only fifteen hundred of the initial three thousand cavalry remained. Moreover, Zhao Jingdian and the rest of Wang Chong's forces had arrived. Wang Chong could see no avenue through which these Tibetans could reverse the tides.
”Congratulations to user! For defeating renowned Tibetan general Batunlu, you are awarded 3 Destiny Energy, to be dispensed after the mission is completed!”
Just when Wang Chong was turning around, he heard a voice in his ear.
Eh?
Wang Chong stopped and mentally gasped in surprise. This voice had truly caught him by surprise, but the more important part, the most important part, was that Wang Chong knew of this general.
It was him? Wang Chong wondered in shock.
Wang Chong knew that this general couldn't possibly be anyone nameless, but he hadn't imagined that he would be this famous. Batunlu was not a name that could compare to the likes of Huoshu Huicang, Dalun Ruozan, and Geluofeng, but he was definitely one of the higher-ranked individuals of Ü-Tsang's Ngari Royal Lineage.
This person was a capable commander in the war of the southwest, playing an extremely important role for the Tibetan army and even obtaining Huoshu Huicang's trust. If nothing unusual had happened, he would have become Huoshu Huicang's trusted lieutenant after this battle. But he would only have begun to stand out and become known after this battle.
By relying on his performance in the southwest campaign, Batunlu quickly rose through the ranks of the Tibetan army, even leading an army together with Dusong Mangpoje and the rest to invade the Central Plains and become a major foe of the Great Tang. Wang Chong had not expected that he and Li Siye would kill Batunlu in this battle!
Rumble!
With the rumbling of warhorses, Zhao Jingdian's forces quickly joined the fray. Without the advantage of speed and with no leader to guide them, the Tibetans were doomed.
Fifteen minutes later, the battle was over. Limbs and corpses littered the ground, and no living Tibetan could be seen.
One thousand Great Tang soldiers had fought against three thousand fully-armored Tibetans charging at maximum speed, but it was the Great Tang that ended up thrashing its opponent. No one could have expected this.
……
”How did you do it?”
When the battle was over and the army was beginning to clean up the battlefield, Wang Chong heard a voice from behind him. Turning around, he saw that Li Siye was walking toward him, his massive sword on his back.
”With your cultivation, it's not possible for you to see the openings of a Profound Martial realm expert. How did you do it?”
Li Siye looked at Wang Chong, his expression unprecedentedly grave. He rarely asked Wang Chong questions, but this matter was completely different. Although he was at the Profound Martial realm, in that fight, even he had been clueless as to how to kill his opponent. Perhaps he could have accepted the results if Wang Chong had also been a Profound Martial realm expert.
But he absolutely was not!
A beginner warrior an entire cultivation realm below was able to instruct a Profound Martial realm expert in killing an even more formidable opponent. This was as absurd as a three-year-old child telling an old veteran how to kill another old veteran on the battlefield.
Even Li Siye found it difficult to accept.
”Haha, what are you saying? Weren't you the one that killed him? Why are you asking me?” Wang Chong chuckled, feigning confusion.
Li Siye only stared at Wang Chong, but the serious expression on his face plainly communicated his stance.
He was not making a joke, and Wang Chong's words wouldn't be able to trick him.
He had to know how Wang Chong had done it.
”Haha, it really wasn't much. The Ksitigarbha Vajra Guardian might have six arms, but its body is too large and there are some places it can't reach. I heard my master talk about this sort of martial art before, so I knew of it. All I did this time was pass on that knowledge to you,” Wang Chong said with a chuckle.
