I really became a king.

Chapter 346 Zhu Wuyan's Back-up Plan
Facing the old woman's questioning tone, the man smiled confidently: "Isn't this just killing two birds with one stone?"

"It can not only confirm whether Zhu Wuyan has really turned away from us, but also catch Prince Yi in a trap..."

The old woman glanced at her companion with a complicated expression and said, "Zhu Wuyan is not a fool. I'm afraid he will react soon after the incident, and it might anger her."

"Don't worry. She is one with us in life and death. She wouldn't dare to do anything even if she knew." The mysterious man was still very confident.

The old woman did not refute, but shook her head repeatedly in her heart, thinking: That's because you don't understand women. Once a woman is in love, sometimes she really doesn't care about anything and has zero IQ...

Thinking of something else, he said with a complicated expression, "You must have expected that Prince Yi would come to Wusheng Ridge, so you did not hesitate to send out all the Red Armored Army, with the purpose of killing him in one fell swoop."

"Yes, I guessed that he would definitely come, and of course I was prepared for him not to come. In that case, I would have to take the risk of traveling a long distance to Kongtong Mountain. But now it seems that I guessed right..."

The man showed a proud look on his face and continued, "As long as we succeed in killing the enemy at Wusheng Ridge, then we won't need that 'ally' in Dali Imperial Capital anymore. By then, all 100,000 sets of Sun and Moon Dual Wheels will be mine!"

The old woman looked at him, thinking that he had even taken that ally into account and had not even thought about dividing the 100,000 sets of Sun and Moon Dual Wheels equally.

"Why are you so sure? What if this Prince Yi didn't come, but took these scholars who were in meditation directly to Kongtong? By then, the army will be on alert, and even if you send out all your Red Armored Army, I'm afraid you won't get any benefit."

The man sighed and said, "Yes, if that's the case, I'm afraid all of these hundreds of thousands of red-armored soldiers will be killed..."

At this point, his tone changed and he said, "But I know he would never do that."

"why?"

"Because he knows that this time of entering into a state of meditation is a great fortune for those scholars. It is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Once missed, there will probably never be another chance again. So he will never disturb these scholars from entering into a state of meditation!"

The old woman glanced at the scene in the real market, and seeing that the two armies were still some distance away, she turned her attention to her companion again. After this incident, she suddenly felt that she knew too little about this companion, or even nothing at all, which made her feel a little flustered.

I couldn't help but continue to ask: "What if he chooses to stand aside and watch? After all, he doesn't have to save these scholars."

The man glanced at the old woman and suddenly laughed: "So you don't understand."

Seeing the old woman's face becoming a little ugly, the man didn't care. He turned his eyes to the scene in the stone plate, and his tone suddenly became a little serious: "If he really stands by and watches, I will be relieved. This kind of person is destined to never become a big shot, and he is not worthy of being my opponent."

"But I know he will never stand idly by!"

Although the old woman was unhappy, she couldn't help but ask, "Why are you so sure?"

"Because he is not a person who is inferior to others. He has lofty ambitions. No matter how much he has to pay, he is determined to win these scholars!"

I have to say, the mysterious man was right.

Even if Jiang Yi knew in advance, he would definitely not stand idly by. However, having lofty ambitions was only one aspect, and more importantly, he understood what these scholars meant to mankind.

When he was refining the Xumi Palace, the weeping voices of the human couple kept lingering in his mind amidst the raging fire. He didn't know what his relationship with the couple was, but he was very sure of one thing.

If human beings do not want to repeat the mistakes of the past, they must rise up and recreate the power of the ancient times. All this is inseparable from scholars and the great way of literature.

In order to restore the great path of human culture as soon as possible, he is willing to fight to the death.

This is the responsibility he must bear, and it is also the responsibility given to him by the couple in their blazing flames!

Of course, it is also because of the ambition in his heart!

Therefore, in this battle, we have to fight to the death and never take a step back.

Looking at the red-armored army approaching step by step in neat rows, it looked like a dark mass from afar with no end in sight.

Jiang Yi stood on a huge rock with his horse. He tightly gripped the sun and moon wheels in his hands, took a deep breath, and slowly raised the dark green sun wheel in his right hand.

As if they had received some kind of signal, the hundreds of thousands of troops standing quietly behind him began to move. They were also a black mass with no end in sight. Just like the red-armored army on the opposite side, they slowly began to move forward step by step.

Jiang Yi lightly lifted the reins in his hand and jumped off the rock, arriving at the forefront of Bingfeng.

"There are no cavalry..." Looking at the red-armored infantry on the opposite side, he couldn't help but feel confused.

But he had no time to think so much at this time. It was just right that there were no cavalry. Behind him, except for the Blood-Clothed Guards, there were all cavalry.

The distance between the two sides was gradually closing. Looking from the air, two overwhelming black torrents were approaching at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Moreover, as the distance between them shortened, both sides slowly accelerated. The red-armored infantrymen had already started their run-up, but their formation remained neat and uniform, and every step made a heavy sound as they stepped on the ground.

Jiang Yi also began to speed up. Under his leadership, the originally gentle sound of horse hooves behind him gradually became rapid, and the intervals between the "thump, thump" sounds became shorter and shorter.

"kill!"

Seeing that the distance was almost right, Jiang Yi shouted loudly, squeezed his legs together, and the bull beast he was sitting on began to rise rapidly.

"kill!"

This was the signal for a charge, and the hundreds of thousands of troops behind him charged forward together with an overwhelming force.

The red-armored army on the opposite side also began to sprint at full speed. After seeing the opponent's charge formation, Jiang Yi raised his eyelids.

Even in the rapid sprint, they still maintained a neat and uniform formation without any disorder. This will be a terrifying enemy! I really don't know how they were trained.

"Sun and Moon wheels, out!"

At Jiang Yi's command, the ninety thousand sun and moon wheels behind him rose into the sky simultaneously, filling the sky with emerald green light, blocking out the sun and even overshadowing the stars.

Under the control of the Blood-Controlling Sword Technique, the overwhelming volleys slashed towards the red-armored army.

This is the signature attack of the Sun and Moon Terrace, and it is also a move that strikes fear into the hearts of all enemies. Jiang Yi originally had high hopes for it.

But the result was beyond his expectation. He saw that hundreds of thousands of red-armored infantrymen on the opposite side raised round shields in their hands at the same time. The shields were as red as blood, forming a sharp contrast with the emerald green of the sun and moon.

"Clang, clang, clang..." There was a series of dense collision sounds, and the Sun and Moon wheels that were flying into the sky returned empty-handed.

“Haha, your Sun and Moon Wheels are indeed extraordinary, but my Blood Moon Shield is also not an ordinary item!”

In the mirror image of the stone disk, the mysterious man let out a triumphant laugh.

"This is really going to be a bloody battle..."

This was the first time that the Sun and Moon wheels returned empty-handed and were beaten back forcefully.

At the moment when they repelled the double wheels of the sun and the moon, those blood-red round shields circled around and rose into the air again, spinning rapidly and attacking the hundreds of thousands of troops under Jiang Yi's command.

Behind each round shield, there was a long blood-red tail, like countless red meteors, pressing down from the air towards the army of more than 100,000 led by Jiang Yi.

They covered the sky like locusts. "Five Elements Formation, rise!"

There was no time to think at all. Jiang Yi waved his hand casually, and the dark green Sun and Moon Double Wheels in his hand flew out again. Behind him, hundreds of thousands of Sun and Moon Double Wheels followed closely behind.

One after another, they instantly formed a huge emerald green sky, protecting the army of hundreds of thousands.

Just like being hit by a giant hammer, Jiang Yi and others all felt their blood boiling violently. But they managed to hold on and successfully repel the blood-red round shields.

"So strong!"

Jiang Yi knew that he had met a strong enemy. This would be the strongest opponent he had encountered since he traveled through time, and would also be the most difficult battle.

"How could there be such a terrifying army..."

Jiang Yi secretly sighed in his heart. Until now, the opponent's formation was still neat and uniform. He also noticed that every infantryman on the opposite side had a dazed look on their faces, like zombies.

And the red armor they were wearing, if I was not mistaken, should be extremely heavy, because every step they took would leave a footprint an inch deep on the ground.

After two rounds of attacks, the distance between the two sides narrowed again and finally came into close combat.

Jiang Yi originally thought that most of his side were cavalry and would have the advantage in charge, but after an actual collision, he realized that he had taken it for granted.

Although their side was composed of cavalry, the other side was an iron wall. Even the cavalry, which was as powerful as a mountain, could only come to an abrupt halt.

In the wild continent, when two armies fight, they will have their own battle formations to bless them, especially the general charge at the beginning, which makes them seem like one under the blessing of war.

However, after the two armies really start close combat, this integrated battle formation will disappear in a sense.

When two brave men meet on a narrow road, the bravest will win. At this time, it all depends on their respective strengths. Of course, it also depends on the power of their respective military formations.

Although he didn't gain any advantage in the two consecutive clashes, Jiang Yi didn't take it too seriously. After all, the close combat had just begun.

But he immediately realized that he was wrong. This was the first time he personally experienced what it meant to be defeated like a landslide.

As soon as the armies came into close combat, the enemy's formation suddenly changed, turning into a bunch of sharp knives, and they charged in directly.

Jiang Yi's side was simply unable to break through the other side's formation and could only passively defend and retreat step by step.

"Is this some kind of spatial confinement?" Jiang Yi looked up at the starry sky and knew that this space should be restricted by some rules.

Under the constraints of these rules, no matter how mysterious this world is, many magical powers are restricted, and one can only engage in the most direct and brutal close combat like ordinary people.

Including Jiang Yi's many methods such as the landscape martial arts realm, they were all restricted at this time and could not be used at all.

However, although some powerful means have been restricted, most of the martial arts skills are still there. The higher the martial arts skills, the stronger the strength in this space will naturally be.

Moreover, both parties are equal in this regard.

Fortunately, Jiang Yi has many powerful men under his command, including Fulong and his two old friends, martial arts masters such as Zhang Zhiyuan from the Martial Hall, and a group of Sun and Moon warriors represented by the leaders of the nine Sun and Moon tribes.

After fighting with all their might, they finally broke through the enemy's formation, and hundreds of thousands of troops took advantage of the situation to charge in. After finally breaking through the enemy's formation, the entire battlefield turned into a big melee.

But the losses were heavy. Seeing the soldiers he had trained with great effort falling one by one, Jiang Yi's eyes were already red. He wanted to rush into the battle several times, but he was firmly guarded by the retreating Fu Long, Wang Daniu and other personal soldiers in the middle.

According to Wang Daniu's idea, he once wanted to protect his own prince and retreat to the rear, but was glared back by Jiang Yi.

He knew that as the commander-in-chief, he could not retreat and had to stay firmly at the front line.

As long as he is here, the flag with the word "Yi" on it will always stand at the forefront of the army, and the morale of the army of hundreds of thousands will be stable.

Jiang Yi also noticed something unusual at this time and did not insist on charging into battle himself. Instead, under the protection of Fulong, Wang Daniu and thousands of his personal soldiers, he frowned and looked at the red-armored army opposite.

It was really weird. The other side had an army of over 100,000, but there was not a single general.

On the other hand, among the hundreds of thousands of troops, there were hundreds of generals. If there were no such hundreds of generals, they would have been wiped out.

"Is it possible that the other party is really so strong? He doesn't even need anyone to lead him?"

Jiang Yi didn't believe it. Not only him, but also the generals under his command, such as Lin Yizi, didn't believe it.

All we can say is that they have not yet uncovered the secret, and this is probably the key to determining the outcome of this battle.

After observing for a while, Jiang Yi still didn't find anything unusual.

The enemy's red-armored army of over 100,000 were exactly the same in terms of attire, attack methods, and even the aura they exuded. There was no difference at all.

"Your Majesty, should we shrink our defenses?" Ding Ren asked from the side, looking somewhat miserable: "If we continue to fight like this, the losses will be too heavy..."

Jiang Yi came back to his senses, looked up, and his face looked a little miserable.

In just a short while, a quarter of the army of more than 100,000 had suffered casualties, and as time went on, the casualties continued to increase.

Fortunately, all the soldiers were fearless and brave, and were willing to fight to the death with the enemy at a cost of mutual destruction. They finally managed to stop the downward trend.

But this is just a temporary solution. If things continue like this, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers will probably be wiped out.

Jiang Yi's heart was bleeding, these were the capital for him to gain a foothold in this world, and the foundation for him to establish his own business in Western Xinjiang. If they were all destroyed here, he would really have to start all over again.

Moreover, these are all living, flesh-and-blood people.

"Yes, my Lord, shrink the formation and break through!"

"We are cavalry and have the advantage of speed. As long as we can withdraw from the battle circle, we can wear them out to death!"

"If we don't retreat now, all our people will die..." Wang Daniu said anxiously at this time.

Jiang Yi looked back at Dong Chengyang and others who were still in meditation behind the army, gritted his teeth, kicked Wang Daniu to the ground, and shouted: "Retreat? Tell me where to retreat?"

Then he looked at the whole audience and shouted, "I have said before that we are not fighting for ourselves in this battle. No matter how heavy the casualties are, we have no way to retreat. As long as they don't wake up, we must keep fighting and not retreat a single step!"

"It takes a thousand days to raise an army, but only a moment to deploy it. You... don't blame me for being cruel!"

"I will stand here and accompany you till the very last man!"

"Even if everyone dies in the end, the military spirit will live forever!"
