The war flags are flying and the war drums are beating.
Along the border of Youzhou in Central China, a strict defense line has long been formed.
Based on the tall and thick walls of twenty border cities, the Chinese army set up a huge defensive formation here to isolate all enemies.
And on various towers, countless monks were wearing helmets and armor, ready to fight!
On the highest tower, Holy Lord Yuzhen, the commander of an army of three million, looked solemn as he gazed into the distance at the black mass of enemy troops.
On the left side, there are millions of corpse soldiers, the Yin Qi is soaring into the sky, and no grass grows wherever they pass;
On the right side, there is a huge tide of beasts, with big demons riding ferocious beasts and holding war swords or spears.
And in the middle is the core of the entire five-race alliance, the elite killer army from heaven!
Such an unprecedented combined army is crushing towards the empire's border at a slow but steady speed, bringing heavy pressure to people.
Black clouds pressed down on the city, threatening to destroy it. Feeling the murderous aura of the huge army gathering into the sky, Holy Lord Yuzhen felt tense in his heart.
In his life, he had never commanded a battle of such a large scale.
Rumble.
Thousands of armies and horses trampled across the earth, causing the earth to shake and the mountains to shake.
The palms of countless border guards were sweating, and their hearts were trembling because of the terrifying tide of beasts and the unbeatable zombie army.
One hundred miles, fifty miles, thirty miles...
When the allied forces of the five ethnic groups gradually advanced to only ten miles away from the border, Holy Lord Yuzhen issued an order to the entire army.
"Once the enemy enters the area five miles away from the city, the first wave of crossbow arrows will be fired immediately!"
The five-mile area is the effective killing range of the standard crossbows of the Central-European Army.
As long as the first wave of arrows can effectively kill and injure the enemy, then their defense of the city will be half successful.
"Woo——"
Holy Lord Yuzhen had just issued the order, and the trumpet from the opposite side was blasting. The enemy troops stopped in an area ten miles away from the city defense and stopped advancing.
"What happened? They stopped attacking?"
Holy Lord Yuzhen and the sect leaders couldn't help but look at each other.
Huangfuyi had no expression on his face and stood beside Holy Lord Yuzhen, followed by two Tianming guards.
Seeing that the five ethnic groups' coalition stopped advancing, he glanced at the enemy formation and his pupils suddenly shrank.
There, a domineering and majestic battleship shining with cold black light was suspended in the air and slowly approaching.
On that battleship, there were two completely different flags fluttering in the wind, catching the eyes of the imperial army.
There are two kinds of flags, one represents the union of the five races, and the other is actually the dragon and phoenix flag belonging to the royal family of China.
For a moment, countless soldiers on the defense line whispered, all because of the dragon and phoenix flag!
The sky patrol warship flew slowly, passed the five tribes coalition forces, and took the lead and stopped in an area less than three miles away from the border town.
Being so deep into the battlefield, they were not afraid that the army behind them would not be able to rescue them. Whether it was out of self-confidence or some other purpose, the monks on the Central and Eastern sides were all suppressed.
"Look, that's Overlord!"
The survey battleship was so close that someone quickly saw everything on the ship clearly.
At the bow of the battleship, Gu Chen was dressed in a white robe, with black hair flowing in the wind, holding the hand of a stunning girl next to him.
But behind the two of them, there was no one.
He stood there and suddenly became the focus of the entire world, causing a huge noise!
"The commander-in-chief of the five tribes actually stood at the front of the battlefield. Is the Overlord crazy?"
"There are only two of us, we can't even talk about going deep alone! The Overlord is too arrogant. What does he want to do?"
"Hey! Princess Lanchu! Standing next to the Overlord is Princess Lanchu!"
The soldiers of the empire were talking a lot, and they soon found out that the Overlord was holding the hand of Princess Lanchu, the former royal family who was rumored to be dead long ago, which made them even more uproar.
"Take action! Take action now! Kill the Overlord!"
Huangfu Yi was on the tower, and when he saw clearly that there were only two people on the patrol battleship, Gu Chen, his expression suddenly became extremely ferocious.
His proudest son Huangfu Qingming was tortured to death by Gu Chen, and he also lost two legs because of him. The hatred can be said to be irreconcilable.
Originally, he thought that the Overlord, as the commander-in-chief of the five tribes, would have a chance to see the enemy only if he completely wiped out the enemy. Unexpectedly, he was so bold as to run over on his own initiative!
Now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The patrol battleship is closer to them than to their own people. It is entirely possible for them to kill the overlord instantly with their powerful vitality!
As long as the core of the Overlord is killed, the alliance of the five races will naturally collapse!
"But, Princess Lanchu is here..."
When Holy Lord Yuzhen heard Huangfuyi's request, he couldn't help but hesitate.
Princess Lanchu of the former royal family was on the ship, and there are still many supporters of the former royal family in the army. If he rashly opens fire on the only bloodline left by the former royal family, it is likely to cause dissatisfaction among this group of people.
More importantly, the Overlord is there!
It is said that a person's name is like a tree's shadow. He has heard countless rumors about the Overlord and knows how terrifying this person is.
Since he dared to come to them in a battleship with two people at this moment, he must have someone to rely on. If he acted rashly, he might have fallen into a trick.
"Take action! I ordered you to take action. Have you forgotten whose order you are listening to here?"
Huangfuyi, however, didn't care about anything at all. He regarded the present as a good opportunity to kill the overlord, and his tone was cold and stern, and he could not refuse.
Holy Lord Yuzhen gritted his teeth. Although he was the commander-in-chief of the army, he actually needed to obey Huangfuyi's orders. At the moment, he could only do what he wanted.
"Destroy that battleship!"
Suddenly, a large destructive light appeared on top of the city, rushing towards the sky patrol battleship!
Buzz——
The numerous magic formations on the patrol battleship were immediately activated, blocking all spells and magic weapon attacks.
Gu Chen held Princess Lanchu's hand and spoke with an indifferent expression.
"Huangfuyi, the only legitimate and orthodox bloodline of the royal family of the Middle-earth Empire is here, and you still dare to attack, which further confirms the fact that your Huangfu family is seeking to usurp the throne!"
"In the name of the Royal Protector General, I order all of you to surrender immediately, otherwise you will pay a heavy price!"
His voice rolled like thunder and spread throughout the twenty cities on the frontier.
"Overlord, stop trying to impress people! That Princess Lan Chu is a fake, she is really dead long ago!"
"What kind of general are you to protect the country? You are just an invader. You want to destroy this homeland where the people of Middle-earth have lived and worked peacefully for generations!"
Huangfuyi looked cold and retorted immediately.
This overlord is really despicable and wants to turn his army into an army of justice and win the support of ordinary people in Kyushu.
If he is really allowed to take the title of Dayi, then all the princes in Kyushu will rebel, which will be a nightmare for the Huangfu family.
"It's really hard to deal with."
Gu Chen frowned slightly, Huangfuyi was not a brainless person, he repositioned himself as an intruder in just a few words.
As long as the people of Kyushu believe that they are invaders and are here to destroy their homes, the soldiers will unite like never before and unleash a powerful fighting force, bringing great trouble to the Five Tribes Alliance.
The Huangfu family obviously took this into consideration, and they carried out the crusade in the name of the royal family of China, while they firmly labeled themselves as invaders.
