259 Surrendering Without Fighting (1/2)
With such great men, such a strong army would definitely be able to sweep the Earth.
Ouyang Shuo started to give instructions to the generals, ”Wang Feng!”
”Present!” Wang Feng stepped out and knelt with one knee of the ground.
”You will lead the Guards regiment and be in charge of the left.”
”Yes, my lord!”
”Lin Yi!!”
”Present!” Lin Yi stepped out.
”You will lead the 2nd regiment and be in charge of the right.”
”Yes, my lord!”
For the left and right wings, Ouyang Shuo arranged the elite cavalry forces. The three city protection regiments were arranged in the center with Ouyang Shuo personally leading them. Shanhai City and Friendship City’s city protection regiments would lead the charge while Qiushui City’s city protection squad would act as the reserve. In the regiment itself, the archers would be in front, the sword shield soldiers at the back, and the cavalry at the wings.
Such a formation was invincible.
After which, Ouyang Shuo pulled out his Tang Blade and shouted, ”Let's go!”
The giant army formation started to move. Apart from footsteps and the hooves of the war horses, nothing else was heard. The army went across the city protection river and marched straight for the Tian Feng Tribe.
Dariachi obviously didn't just lie there and wait. Although he appeared arrogant when he met the messenger, in truth after the messenger left he had been preparing for defense against Friendship City and didn't put down his guard.
Such a large scale military movement naturally couldn't escape his eyes.
Facing the huge army, no one wouldn't cower in fear. The cavalry troops that were training in the city north camp had returned at the right time too.
When the lord flag rose up on the walls of Friendship City, this was when Dariachi knew that Friendship City was just a subsidiary territory.
At this point, this was when Dariachi understood the true meaning of why the messenger had said ‘Lord.’
A person who didn't sweep the four corners and hold a lot of land wouldn't be called a lord.
In the tribe tent, Dariachi frowned.
He raged. ”Scheme, this is a scheme. A huge scheme targeting our Tian Feng tribe.”
The joy of victory had faded and what remained was endless regret.
Truthfully, Ouyang Shuo's actions were throwing bait. Sending the messenger was done so as to earn the moral high ground. In such a way, Tian Feng tribe was despicable, and naturally they wouldn't be able to make the other tribes join them.
”Chief, what should we do now?” The tribe nobles were like panicking birds and were terrified.
”What can we do? We can only fight,” Huqitu said.
”Shut up!” Dariachi fumed. If it weren't for Huqitu persuading him and pushing him, he wouldn't have caused such a problem.
”General Hu must be joking; the enemy is 10,000 men strong, how can we fight?” The noble families were unhappy.
When attacking the trading market, the noble families admired and supported Huqitu. Now that the situation has changed, so did their attitudes as they all blamed him for his reckless act.
Everyone knew that when attacking the trading market, the ones that were the most eager were also this bunch of people.
Being dissed by both the tribe leader and the noble families, Huqitu was totally red and said ruthlessly, ”How can their combat strength compare to that of our grassland men?”
