Simultaneous travel: I am a talented person in all the worlds

Chapter 275 My Lord, forget about chivalry! Surround and kill her!
"Report——!"

A scout from the North stumbled and crawled into the hall, his voice filled with barely suppressed terror and trembling!

"Lord Gen! We just received an urgent report from Pianguan and Changyuan!"

The Gen army, who were discussing their next steps, had a bad feeling when they saw the scout's appearance.

He took the battle report, quickly glanced through it, and was struck dumb, frozen in place!
"what happened?"

Seeing Genshi's reaction, Urka realized something was wrong.

Genshi hesitated for a few moments before slowly reciting to Mo Yu, who was seated in the main seat:
"Esdeath, the Empire's strongest warrior, appeared alone on the battlefield of Pianguan Changyuan. Chief Seifrik fought valiantly but was defeated and died in battle! His 30,000 elite warriors... the entire army... were wiped out!"

At this moment, Master Gen truly realized with great pain.

The appearance of Esdeath's name on the northern battlefield... what does it mean?
That represents absolute power! Absolute cold! And... absolute death!

"Is that old man from the Sefrik tribe dead in battle?"

Upon hearing his caution, Urka's eyes revealed a hint of sadness.

As one of the four tribal leaders who initially followed High Priest Mo Yu in resisting Numa Seka's tyranny and fighting their way out of the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, the relationship between the tribal chiefs had always been quite good.

Now they are separated by death.

At the same time, Esdeath single-handedly turned the tide of the battle with terrifying power.

This only intensified the fear that the seasoned patriarch had of the 'Ice Queen'!
Sitting in the main seat, Mo Yu looked up at the ceiling after hearing the battle report, and couldn't help but show a hint of regret.

In fact, before Genshi received the intelligence, he had already learned from the God of War that a high priest had fallen and a large number of believers had lost their connection.

He realized it at that moment.

"In order to buy time and get to the battlefield as quickly as possible, did they abandon the marching speed of the hundreds of thousands of troops behind them and choose to rush to the aid alone?"

Mo Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and muttered to himself, his tone carrying a hint of admiration.

It must be said that Esdeath is by no means a mere brute with good looks and fighting prowess.

She is war-loving and enjoys torture and killing, that's true.

But he is also a top-tier army commander with powerful leadership skills and profound wisdom!

Otherwise, the empire would not have entrusted the command of hundreds of thousands of troops to a woman!
When everyone subconsciously linked the two pieces of information together: "400,000 Imperial reinforcements marching north" and "Esdeath personally leading them".

But she was able to break free from this conventional way of thinking!

Such a bold, unexpected, and highly efficient choice!

It's true that it would take a month for an army of 400,000 to march north! But that doesn't mean Esdeath herself would need a month to arrive!

Moreover, Esdeath's decision to 'go to the rescue alone' was not simply based on viewing herself as a powerful individual! Rather, it was made from the perspective of an excellent commander!
The northern border city of Changyuan itself has 300,000 garrison troops! Among them, 100,000 are border troops who have been stationed in Changyuan for many years!
Esdeath herself grew up on the northern border, and she knew very well the strength of this border army.

Therefore, in her judgment, the military strength of Changyuan in the North was absolutely sufficient! What was lacking was only excellent generals!

As long as Esdeath arrives at the Northern Frontier, even without the Empire's strongest forces, her presence as a commander alone will boost the Northern Frontier's combat strength by at least 30%!

Therefore, she ordered her deputy, Najenda, to lead the army slowly.

Alone, he arrived in Changyuan in the Northern Territory as quickly as possible!
Unfortunately, Esdeath was ultimately too late.

Or rather, Mo Yu's actions were even faster than she had anticipated.

The first place she went to was not Changyuan, but the main fortress section that was guarded by General Liwa and had now been occupied by the Church of the God of War.

After all, she had come alone and wanted to rightfully take over military command, so she would definitely need to meet and discuss with the highest-ranking general here, Liva. Moreover, she could also take the opportunity to learn about the latest situation on the battlefield from him.

Unfortunately, by the time Esdeath arrived... Riva was already dead, and this most crucial core wall had changed hands, now bearing the banner of the Church of the God of War.

As an excellent commander, Esdeath did not rely on her strong personal strength to rush in after realizing this.

Instead, they cautiously chose to avoid the situation and immediately rushed to the aid of the secondary stronghold of Pianguan Changyuan! This led to Esdeath's miraculous arrival, which not only successfully rescued the then precarious general of Pianguan, but also took the opportunity to gather and control the remaining tens of thousands of imperial soldiers in the city.

As a commander, even someone as strong as Esdeath, having troops under one's command and not having troops under one's command are completely different concepts!

Esdeath should be glad she made this prudent decision.

If she dares to venture into this trap alone, she should just charge in.

Mo Yu didn't even need to lift a finger.

The Genshi from the Qin Dynasty world can use the newly-formed Divine Knights of the Rorowu tribe as a military spirit legion! By linking the military formations, they gather their fighting spirit, transform it into clouds, and forcefully suppress Esdeath!

Ultimately, it's estimated that they won't be able to completely surround and kill a monster of Esdeath's level; she can still escape if she wants to.

But severely damaging it is definitely not a problem!

As a result, Esdeath not only lost a valuable "entrance kill," allowing the enemy to prepare early, but also suffered injuries, reducing her own combat power.

“Report—!”

Another scout, responsible for delivering military intelligence, rushed in, holding aloft a letter sealed in ice crystals... a declaration of war!
"Report to the great chief priest!
Esdeath has sent a challenge! She demands a duel with you, High Priest, tomorrow at noon on the icy plains beyond the Great Wall! To settle this once and for all!!

For a moment, the hall was so quiet you could hear a pin drop! A deathly silence!

All eyes instinctively turned to the young figure in the main seat, whose expression had remained unchanged throughout.

"Esdeath's challenge..."

Mo Yu played with the ice book with great interest.

"High...High Priest, you're not really going to fight, are you?" Urka swallowed hard.

"Can't I?" Mo Yu raised an eyebrow.

Urka and Bak both had twitching lips, and even Genshi frowned.

The High Priestess is powerful, possessing many wonders. But... she is Esdeath after all!

Is the High Priest truly her match?

In particular, the news that Esdeath had annihilated 30,000 soldiers of the Seifric tribe had just arrived, causing considerable shock and a sense of oppression among everyone.

Master Gen pondered for a long time before finally realizing what was happening, and analyzed in a deep voice:
"Esdeath most likely abandoned her main army and rushed to the rescue alone! This means that she now has extremely limited troops at her disposal!"

"This is a golden opportunity!"

Master Gen's tone became somewhat urgent.

"My lord! Her so-called challenge is most likely a delaying tactic, and we shouldn't bother with any rules with her!"
"Immediately assemble our existing 300,000 troops and swarm her! Take advantage of her weakness and completely surround and annihilate her here!!"

"As long as we can eliminate her, the 400,000-strong army on its way will be leaderless and will surely collapse at the first touch! Unifying the world will be just around the corner!"

"Please give the order, my lord! This humble general is willing to sign a military pledge!"

Master Gen bowed and pleaded for his command!

“Master Gen is right. No matter how strong Esdeath is, she cannot withstand your army of 300,000 men under your supreme divine power! High Priest, please give the order! Surround and kill Esdeath!”

Urka also pleaded loudly!

However, faced with such desperate pleas from his two core subordinates...

Mo Yu simply yawned lazily, not paying any attention to what they were saying.

I'm too lazy to waste my breath on these guys who are already terrified by Esdeath's name.

His figure swayed slightly again, and as if merging into the ripples in the air, he vanished into thin air!
Only a single, still-lightly airy, yet domineering phrase remained, echoing slowly and lingering in the empty tent:
"I already said, it's just Esdeath... She's not dead! We're guaranteed to win!"
