Chapter 608
Deep down, Zhou Wu just wanted to kill everyone in the Ten Sinners Camp . Once an impressive and highly respected general, Zhou Wu had slowly become corrupted by power and money .
Despite not having led a fight personally for a long time, Zhou Wu knew he did not have a choice but to go fight head on .
The dragon horse he was riding on was huge, and emitted strong Qi .
When the dragon horse neighed, its nostrils had a red flare around it .
Strong blood Qi suggested that the dragon horse was of the best of its kind!
Normal cultivators would never be able to control it!
"What?!"
"The old emperor did consider the option, but I heard that someone objected, refused to let them off, and even implicated their clans!"
"There were even times when people tried to tap into our Hundred Wars Camp's resources, so why wouldn't they do that to Ten Sinners Camp?"
Hundred Wars Camp soldiers gossiped after hearing what the old man from Ten Sinners Camp said .
"My Lord, must we continue fighting?" Jin Wu Xue's aide asked cautiously . After all, Hundred Wars Camp had already suffered too many casualties . While their soldiers outnumbered the Ten Sinners Camp, their enemies were too determined to win, so it was hard to tell who would emerge victorious!
If they were to fight again, the Hundred Wars Camp would become merely a legend even if they managed to defeat the Ten Sinners Camp .
"His Majesty's orders . I must follow . "
Jin Wu Xue's face carried a complicated expression, unsure of the credibility of those people's words as it made no sense that the Ten Sinners Camp's people would lie at the current stage . However, he had to stand on Yong Xuan's side .
"His Majesty's orders! Hundred Wars Camp, get ready to kill the traitors!"
Zhou Wu stepped into the Hundred Wars Camp with his dragon horse, taking over Jin Wu Xue's authority .
Jin Wu Xue was puzzled, but didn't say anything, and just followed Zhou Wu's orders .
"KILL!"
The two troops clashed once more . One party was high in morale, while the other was just quiet .
After an hour, the two troops separated, and stood opposite each other .
Ten Sinners Camp was left with only 1,000 people, each of them injured in some way .
Hundred Wars Camp, on the other hand, had only 10,000 soldiers left .
"Bear with it, the reserve army will be here very soon . They will help to eliminate the traitors . I will make sure His Majesty rewards every one of you after the battle!"
Zhou Wu pretended to be calm, though he was shocked by how strong the Ten Sinners Camp was .
He naturally did not appear at the front line . Instead, he stood at the back of Hundred Wars Camp, and even had a thousand soldiers ensure his safety .
Jin Wu Xue and the gang were not concerned about rewards, as what they really cared about was their dead brothers stranded across the battlefield .
"Get into formation, use the three mountain peaks formation . As long as we buy some time, the reserve army will be here . " Zhou Wu passed down an order .
Being the capital city, the reserve army would be outside the city . Although today was a setup, nobody had thought it'd be possible for the rebels to last so long in the presence of the Hundred Wars Camp and the Yu Ling Guards .
Yet, the Ten Sinners Camp had proved them wrong by surviving still even when greatly outnumbered by their opponent .
"General Zhou, this is taking my brothers' lives too lightly . " Jin Wu Xue rejected immediately after hearing Zhou Wu's order .
The Ten Sinners Camp soldiers no longer cared about losing their lives, so it would be difficult to kill them .
Furthermore, the three mountain peaks formation was a defense formation; if broken, the whole Hundred Wars Camp would die!
If it was an order against other troops, Jin Wu Xue would carry out the order without hesitation!
But the troop facing him was different . A normal troop would usually admit defeat after losing half of their soldiers, but Ten Sinners Camp refused to stand down no matter how bad their situation was .
At their current stage, even the Hundred Wars Camp soldiers felt like stopping . The difference between the Hundred Wars Camp soldiers and the Ten Sinners Camp soldiers was that the Hundred Wars Camp soldiers were elites picked out from hundreds of thousands, and many already had established families of their own .
Once the order to defend was executed, there was a chance Ten Sinners Camp would break through their lines!
"Heng! His Majesty already gave me authority to oversee everything here, so do as I say . Unless Jin General plans to go against orders?!"
Zhou Wu was already in a bad mood to begin with, so when Jin Wu Xue refused to follow his order, Zhou Wu could not help but lash out on Jin Wu Xue .
"Sir, this old man is taking our lives as a joke . He had a part to play last time someone tried to take advantage of us Hundred Wars Camp . "
Jin Wu Xue's vice general started to look awkward, while the rest of the Hundred Wars Camp stared at Zhou Wu angrily .
"What? Can't you hear my orders?! Or are you trying to rebel!?"
Though the Hundred Wars Camp soldiers were strong, they were still nobody but followers to Zhou Wu .
"Rebellion it is, then! What a laughingstock!"
A deep voice sounded in the camp, causing the Hundred Wars Camp to quieten down instantly .
"General Jin is indeed good at managing others . I will report it to His Majesty word for word!"
