Chapter 858: Reject All the Fancy Things
As the evil magic progressed, elite Japanese troops finally appeared on the city wall.
"Be loyal to the Emperor!" Oda Nobunaga's confidant Shibata Katsuie shouted the order, and the elite warriors beside him rushed towards the enemy at the east gate in teams of a hundred, roaring.
Their target is the Japanese rebels. With the support of sorcery, the more people they kill, the more time they can delay. Every minute of delay increases the possibility of victory.
The elite warriors were unstoppable, their swords flashed like water, and they slaughtered the Japanese rebel soldiers crazily. Fighting against these elite warriors, the Japanese rebel soldiers had no power to resist at all.
The gap between the two sides is huge. They are all diehard warriors who have been brainwashed intensively and can contribute to the battlefield after their death.
"Report, multiple legions of double-gifted warriors have appeared at the east and west gates, and the Japanese vanguard has suffered heavy casualties. " The messenger ran to the central army camp to report.
"Hmph, send a message to Uesugi Kenshinko and Susanoo to push their elite troops forward. No retreat is allowed. Fight to the death until the last moment!" Zhuge Liang said coldly.
What a joke. There have been heavy casualties. All our elite troops have been sent up there. Where are your elite troops?
"The Japanese are rebellious by nature and cannot be trusted!" Zhuge Liang is no longer the simple genius he used to be. His attainments in understanding people's hearts are not as good as Sima Yi's, but he is definitely not a soft-hearted person.
"It doesn't matter. In a generation, there will be no such thing as Japan!" Sima Yi smiled coldly. The temporary compromise was for the more distant future.
The culture accepted by this generation is completely different from that of the Han Dynasty. It is a joke to say that they can be loyal wholeheartedly. All they need to do is be safe and obedient. The next generation of Japanese people will cut off all of the past when it is born.
"Report, the Shesheng Battalion is ready and can launch an attack at any time!"
Upon hearing the news, Zhuge Liang smiled. Let me give you an idea of the horror of the sound of a shooting arrow.
Having experienced the horror of Changshui Camp before, now it’s time to experience the capabilities of Shesheng Camp.
Since we have brought the Changshui Battalion, there is no reason not to bring the Shesheng Battalion. Unlike the eighth-generation double-talented Changshui Battalion, this Shesheng Battalion was one of the original five central imperial guards. It is a full-fledged imperial guard, and a veteran one at that.
At the level of the Royal Guards, there is no absolute difference in strength, but the longer one stays at this level, the deeper the degree of smelting will usually be, and the deeper the degree of smelting, the stronger they will naturally be.
The Han Dynasty has given great protection to this archer corps. This corps can be regarded as a strategic turning point. Especially at a time when soldiers are becoming more and more valuable, a corps of archers, which is a fragile item, naturally needs the greatest protection.
The Han Dynasty specially transformed the infantry battalion, which was once one of the five imperial guards, into a shield guard at the level of the imperial guards, and then provided close protection for the Shesheng battalion.
The death order is close protection. It doesn’t matter if a war is lost, but the Shesheng Battalion must be saved.
There are only two archer legions at the level of the Royal Guards, one is the Royal Guard Changshui and the other is the Royal Guard Shesheng. No other legion can compare to these two precious ones.
As for the vanguard, they are heavily armed crossbowmen, which is very different from specialized troops such as archers.
"Launch the attack immediately!" Zhuge Liang gently waved his feather fan, and then arranged the direction of the cloud structure to the location of the Shesheng Camp, helping the Shesheng Camp to increase its damage.
The soldiers in the Shesheng camp pulled the bowstrings, bright light attached to the arrows, and clouds of mist continued to be injected into them.
With a slight bang, more than five thousand arrows were shot out, and then all the soldiers of the Shesheng Camp became visibly weak.
This was the culmination of the Shesheng Camp's powerful attack, containing all their energy and spirit, the trinity of force, cloud, and will attached to the arrow.
Like a meteor, it streaked across the sky and then accurately hit the moon in the sky.
A crisp sound appeared in the sky, and the moon that was originally high in the sky began to shatter. The ghosts of the evil spirits that had begun to gather on the battlefield suddenly lost their support and dissipated into the world.
The moment they were about to turn the offensive and defensive situation on the city wall around with the help of witchcraft, it began to collapse. Without the support of witchcraft, how could they possibly withstand the fierce attack of the Han Dynasty?
"What on earth happened! "
Shibata Katsuie roared angrily. He was about to drive the enemies off this section of the city wall, but the sudden failure of his evil magic put him at an absolute disadvantage.
"Report to the general, all the priests in the city are dead..." said the subordinate who came back from investigating the situation with difficulty.
Putting aside the priests who sacrificed their own lives, those who maintained the ceremony were also killed one after another. Even Yue Du, who was following Oda Nobunaga's army, fell off his horse.
The Shesheng Camp specializes in restraining all fancy things, and such a big moon with manifested will hanging in the sky is simply the biggest target for the Shesheng Camp.
After receiving the blessing of the army's cloud energy, the Shesheng Camp's concentrated fire not only killed the moon in the sky, but also directly launched a will attack based on the spiritual connection.
Even a divine cultivator like Yue Du who had broken through the realm couldn't hold on, let alone those who maintained the sacrifices. This was why the Han Dynasty never cared about particularly strange types of troops.
No matter who you are, you will be targeted by the shooting sound in one round, and it will be a one-for-one exchange. Even if you are a member of the Military Soul Legion, you cannot withstand this wave of attack.
However, a normal commander would never use the Shesheng Battalion to attack the Military Soul Legion or the Will Legion. Doing so generally fails to maximize the value of the Shesheng Battalion, and the resulting damage is indescribable. It is better to just target a legion that is easy to target.
Military souls and the like will naturally be handled by the Military Soul Corps.
"Damn it... follow me!"
Even if Shibata Katsuie was furious, he could not change anything. The evil magic they had carefully prepared died under the concentrated fire of the Shesheng Camp before it could shine.
"Kill them all!"
A bloody light burst out from Shibata Katsuie's body, and the blades of the dual-talented elite warriors under his command flashed with an even more dangerous aura. At the same time, the hands holding the handles began to bleed.
Without the support of evil magic, Shibata Katsuie had no choice but to fight for his life. The focus of their attacks was no longer on the rebels, but on the elite soldiers of the Han Dynasty.
The legion's talent of increasing strength through self-mutilation roughly means that the more blood flows out, the stronger the body becomes. The side effects are severe, but Shibata Katsuie can't care about them now.
"clang!"
"Hahaha, we caught a big fish!" Wei Yan laughed wildly and held Shibata Katsuie's samurai sword.
Looking at the enemy who easily blocked his samurai sword's attack with a broadsword, Shibata Katsuie felt a shadow in his heart.
He retreated to the second line without saying a word, without showing any trepidation towards Wei Yan. His mission was to delay time, not to fight with Wei Yan.
