Under normal circumstances, these little poisonous creatures would not be a threat to them at all. There were countless poisonous creatures in the dark night, causing everyone to feel an indescribable pressure. The saint army’s formation was in chaos.
At this moment, Little Sly Jiang, who was hiding in the dark, descended from the sky and began her hunt.
Little Gu, Shadow Thirteen, Jun Chang’an, and Xiao Zhenting did not stay idle either. Their combat strength was inferior to Little Sly Jiang, but they were still a power that could not be underestimated.
The commander fled. Behind him, the thousand-strong army… was destroyed!
She let him go because she wanted him to report.
They had caused so much trouble, but the expert hiding in the camp had yet to appear. This time, they had caused a big commotion. They believed that that person was not far from appearing.
In less than five days, the military strength of the Sacred Clan’s army had been reduced by 3,500. However, the Great Zhou did not lose a single soldier. Other than a few sacrificial soldiers who had suffered slight injuries during the mission, there were no other casualties.
This news was undoubtedly inspiring, and the low morale suddenly rose.
Of course, they understood that this was not only because of Grand Marshal Xiao, the Shadow Guard, and the others, but also because of that unknown expert.
They had never seen her face, nor had they heard her name. They had only seen her figure from afar. She was dressed in black armor, had a cold body, and a slender waist. She was valiant and heroic. They did not know why such a small body hid such a terrifying power. In short, they secretly called her Black Phoenix.
“Who is that person?” In the tent, Yan Huaijing asked Jun Chang’an.
“I don’t know,” Jun Chang’an said.
Yan Huaijing looked at him deeply. “You’ve carried out so many missions with her. Didn’t you hear what Xiao Zhenting and Shadow Thirteen called her?”
“No,” Jun Chang’an said.
Yan Huaijing frowned. “You should know what she looks like, right?” “What does the Crown Prince want to do?” Jun Chang’an asked.
“If I can use such an expert…” Yan Huaijing didn’t finish his sentence.
Such an expert could defeat an army alone. Who didn’t want to have her? She came to the army with Yu Wan. Was she an expert from the Young Master Manor? Or was she sent by Nanzhao to protect Yu Wan?
Jun Chang’an said seriously, “I think it’s unlikely that she’ll serve Your
Highness.”
Jun Chang’an looked at Yan Huaijing sympathetically. Yan Huaijing thought that he had lost to Yan Jiuchao in terms of the competition of their fathers. Yan Huaijing was wrong. It was far more than that, he couldn’t even defeat his parents-in-law, okay?
The Great Zhou’s army moved back to the village.
Without any casualties in the Great Zhou, the Sacred Clan’s army had lost more than 3, 500 people. Although this number was not a heavy blow to the 100,000-strong army, it was a little terrifying when they thought about how not a single soldier of the Great Zhou had died.
In the past few days, for safety reasons, Xiao Zhenting did not allow Shadow Six to enter Yu City to ask around. Even without asking, he could tell from the sudden strengthening of the defenses on the city wall that the saint army
vcuueu IL.
The puppet master was already dead. The soldiers of the Great Zhou would no longer face the outcome of becoming puppets of the other party after death and clashing with their compatriots. However, this did not mean that the Great Zhou could let their guard down.
The Sacred Clan still had nearly 100,000 powerful troops. If the Sacred Clan’s army came out in full strength at this time, an expert like Little Sly Jiang would definitely be fine. However, it was hard to say about ordinary soldiers. In order to win this battle, they still needed to continue weakening the other party’s experts.
Wasn’t there a saying that when you shoot someone, you shoot the horse first? To capture a thief, you have to capture the leader?
They were not their match in terms of military strength, so they had to lure their experts out and kill them first!
On the tenth day Yu Wan and Madam Jiang arrived, the two sides began their second true battle. The northern city gate of Yu City opened, and the saint army of the First Camp walked out majestically under the lead of the commander.
They set up their formation, and the city gate closed behind them.
Actually, Shadow Six had arranged the first, second, and even eighth camps for them. Shadow Six did not know what their camp was called, nor did he need to know.
After losing 3,500 troops, there were only less than 7,000 people left.
However, the word “only” did not seem to be very appropriate, as if they were very weak. In fact, the seven thousand troops of the Sacred Clan did not have much pressure dealing with the seventy thousand troops of the Great Zhou.
Therefore, when Xiao Zhenting led the twenty thousand people behind him out valiantly, the saint army did not take the other party seriously at all..
