Starting as a centurion, he fought his way through the chaos of the world.

Chapter 79: Kill the General and Seize the Flag
Hua Yong had already mounted his warhorse, gripping his crescent blade tightly.

A ray of light traveled along the blade.

He narrowed his eyes as he looked at Lu Ming.

The opponent's strength was indeed impressive, but it wasn't enough to instill fear in him.

On the contrary, I felt a little excited.

After all, finding a suitable opponent is really too difficult.

"I never imagined that in the corrupt state of the Great Yu Dynasty, there would still be a valiant general like you willing to risk your life for it!" he said, licking his chapped lips.

His eyes revealed a fierce glint.

The veins on his hand gripping the long sword bulged.

"Enough with the nonsense!" Lu Ming said calmly, as his warhorse charged forward.

The halberd in his palm cleaved down from the sky.

Hua Yong held his sword above his head.

"Clang!" The two collided, and Hua Yong's face contorted with rage.

Lu Ming's attack was powerful and heavy.

Even he was somewhat unable to resist.

"Dang Dang Dang!"

However, Lu Ming continued to receive these attacks.

His halberd was extremely fast and powerful.

Just by holding the halberd with one hand, one can feel the overwhelming pressure of Mount Tai.

Hua Yong kept retreating, his ferocious expression turning into horror.

At this moment, he felt his arms were numb, as if they didn't belong to him.

The tiger's mouth was already trembling violently.

The seeping blood stained the handle of the knife red.

"what!"

With no way out, Hua Yong roared, and golden phantoms flickered behind him, this was his momentum, the sharp metal aura surging.

As they converge toward the blade.

It transformed into endless light.

This will further enhance the power of his sword aura.

When you feel this powerful energy.

Disdain flashed in Lu Ming's eyes.

Then, the halberd was raised high, and a battlefield faintly appeared behind him, with blood flowing like rivers and corpses piled up like mountains.

Although they were just phantoms, the feeling they evoked was palpable.

It is indeed very powerful.

Even the exposed bones shimmered with a faint glow.

At the top of the battlefield, mysterious powerful figures clashed with various divine weapons and magical treasures.

The burst of energy continued to spread outwards.

That terrifying aura left Hua Yong breathless.

More than anything, people were incredulous: "Shen Yun? That's impossible!"

He gasped in surprise.

But the next moment, Lu Ming's halberd flashed down.

Wherever it passed, it left visible white marks.

Points of light flickered on the halberd's blade.

"Bang!" Hua Yong's sword shaft was shattered by the heavy halberd, but the halberd's edge continued its relentless attack, slicing diagonally down as it landed on his left shoulder.

The armor shattered, and the iron plates were flung out.

Then came the spurting blood.

He looked down with difficulty and found that half of his body had been cut open.

When she looked up again, she met Lu Mingyou's cold gaze.

"Swoosh!" The halberd was pulled back.

Then strike again at an even faster speed.

A head flew off and was then caught in Lu Ming's palm.

It was Hua Yong's.

"The traitor Hua Yong is dead! Why don't you all surrender now!"

"Crack!" As Lu Ming shouted, his halberd struck the flagpole.

The tall banner was cut in half.

He fell to the ground.

This scene caused the last shred of courage and fighting spirit of all the rebels to completely collapse.

The rebels, who had already scaled the city walls, began to retreat desperately.

The other rebels on the battlefield scattered and fled.

They desperately tried to avoid Lu Ming in the center of the battlefield.

A gaunt rebel soldier, dressed in a gray cloth robe, had a face full of panic on his wrinkled face.

They desperately fled out of the battlefield.

"Thud!" As he stepped into the blood pit, his leg gave way and he collapsed to the ground.

It was too late when I tried to stand up.

He felt a weight on his back and knew someone was stepping on him. Just as he was about to look up, his head was stomped into a mud puddle.

Then, more people who wanted to survive trampled on top of it.

Within moments, he stopped breathing.

And countless similar scenes have occurred on the battlefield.

Countless people died from being trampled on.

The head of the Baili family stood on the city wall, looking at the scene below.

Turning to Baili Fei, he said, "Why aren't you leading the family guards to help!"

"Oh!" Realizing what had happened, Baili Fei hurriedly rushed down the city wall.

Qian Yong also turned to look at Wang Yue beside him and said, "Don't say I didn't give you a chance. Lead your men out and fight your way out. How much merit you can achieve depends on yourself!"

"Yes, sir!" Wang Yue immediately clasped his hands in a fist salute and left.

The Blood Feather Captain standing to the side understood.

This is Qian Yong trying to curry favor with Lu Ming.

He doesn't have that much influence to let his son take credit at this time.

She was glad that she hadn't stopped her son from speaking up for Lu Ming back then; otherwise, she didn't know who would have gotten the credit.

At the same time, they realized that their family would have to closely follow in Lu Ming's footsteps from now on.

There's nothing to be dissatisfied about.

Just now, Lu Ming slew generals and seized horses amidst a vast army, single-handedly intimidating tens of thousands of soldiers.

It is an honor to be related to someone else.

With the addition of the city guards.

Caught between attacking forces from both inside and outside, the rebel army collapsed even faster.

But Lu Ming showed no sign of stopping. Holding his halberd, he continued to rampage across the battlefield.

The targets are usually experts who have entered the True Essence or Blood Transformation Realm.

They fought until the next day, when the east began to lighten with the first hint of dawn.

The battle was finally over.

As dawn broke, black smoke billowed from the city walls.

The walls were covered with marks from knife and axe blows, and corpses still hung on the ladder.

Outside the battlefield, there were severed limbs everywhere.

Blood pits were everywhere.

Blood flowed gently into the low-lying areas.

They almost converged into a river.

The ownerless warhorse lowered its head and nibbled at the few remaining tender grasses.

Occasionally, when startled, it runs around wildly.

Groups of prisoners were escorted and squatted down below the city walls, their bodies bound with ropes, making their movement rather awkward.

His face and body were covered in blood and mud.

From time to time, people could be heard crying and cursing.

Of course, the latter will often be met with a beating.

Even worse, some people would have their heads chopped off. Lu Ming watched all this without stopping them.

"Clap! Clap!"

The sound of combat boots stepping on the blood pit rang out. When I turned my head, I saw Baili Fei walking over surrounded by experts from his family.

Upon seeing Lu Ming, he bowed and said, "Greetings, General!"

The etiquette was impeccable.

His salute was not for Lu Ming's official position, after all, even a garrison commander was not something that the Baili family took seriously.

The most important reason for this is that Lu Ming demonstrated formidable strength.

It can protect the strength of the entire Hongdu Prefecture.

Moreover, his troops were all elite soldiers.

That's enough. In times of chaos, having strength and elite troops is something that deserves more respect.

"Brother Baili, you're too kind. We're good friends," Lu Ming said with a smile.

Baili Fei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, a smile appeared on his face. "General, come with me into the city. My father and the garrison commander are waiting anxiously. They have already prepared a banquet and are just waiting for you."

Lu Ming nodded and said with a smile, "I have long admired the name of Patriarch Baili, but I have never had the chance to meet him. Today is a perfect opportunity."

As he spoke, he dismounted and walked side by side with Baili Fei towards the city.

The latter, however, felt a sudden pang of unease, thinking that Lu Ming was holding a grudge against his father for tacitly allowing him to demand black gold last time.

However, it was difficult to explain at this point, so they could only bite the bullet and head into the city.

At the city gate, Qian Yong and Baili Xun had already led the city's officials and wealthy households out to greet them.

Others may not know, but these two people know it perfectly well.

With this victory, Lu Ming will undoubtedly be appointed as the garrison general of Hongdu Prefecture.
