Chapter 199: Chapter 118: Luo Changfeng: I’m Somewhat Displeased with the Jiang Family_2
“`
But as long as these mysterious crossbow carts, forged by the hands of artifact refiners, could reach the front lines of the battlefield,
the odds of victory for their White Lotus Stockade would be greatly increased.
“Vice Leader, Vice Leader…”
Just as the Vice Leader of the White Lotus Stockade was gradually sinking into deep thought,
behind him, someone from the higher ranks of the White Lotus Stockade, who controlled tens of thousands of bandits, hurried over.
“What is it?”
The Vice Leader of the White Lotus Stockade glanced at the junior high-ranker behind him.
He asked in a calm and low voice.
“Vice Leader, the forces from the Luo Family have started to move, and they are continuously approaching in our direction. It seems…”
“The Luo Family intends to launch a new offensive against us.”
The junior high-ranker of the White Lotus Stockade spoke in a low voice.
The Vice Leader of the White Lotus Stockade, with fiery red short hair, two and a half meters tall, and built like a monstrous giant,
remained calm upon hearing these words.
This was within expectation.
The White Lotus Stockade had raised an army of four to five hundred thousand and ventured into the territory of Huai Shui County.
It was only a matter of time before they clashed with the Huai Shui County Luo Family.
“Give the order, form up directly.”
“If the people from the Luo Family dare to come, then let’s fight.”
“If they don’t dare, then so be it.”
“Once the top-grade common crossbow carts from our old nest are transported here…”
“it will be time for our White Lotus Stockade to launch a total assault.”
…
The formation of the White Lotus Stockade was almost identical to the previous one,
appearing to be extremely solid.
Luo Yong tried attacking several times,
but it seemed that the effects were not very significant.
The ratio of battle casualties was about ten to one.
It seemed that the Luo Family had a significant advantage.
The problem was that those who fell on the Luo Family’s side were well-trained, armored elites,
whereas the losses on the White Lotus Stockade side were ordinary bandits who could be easily replenished.
Those elite bandits, who were protected by ordinary bandits and wore shiny silver armor and wielded longbows, hadn’t lost a single man!
“Should we deploy that cavalry unit composed of a hundred Mo Yu Kirins?”
In the Luo Family camp,
inside the Commander’s Tent,
Luo Yong, with his head lowered, was silently pondering in his mind.
But soon, he shook his head.
Now didn’t seem to be the best time to deploy the hundred Mo Yu Cavalry.
And just as Luo Yong was continuously pondering
how to break through the White Lotus Stockade’s formation, sturdy as a tortoise shell,
a flash of brilliance suddenly crossed his eyes.
“Right, how could I forget about the Rain Seeking Talisman?”
Normally, the Rain Seeking Talisman would indeed be used to summon rain.
But if used abnormally…
Even the Rain Seeking Talisman could cause not a small amount of disaster in the human world.
For instance… a flood.
After all, as long as Luo Yong combined the effects of thirty to fifty Rain Seeking Talismans at the same time,
and turned their power up to the maximum,
then at that moment, the Rain Seeking Talisman, having usurped the authority of heaven and earth, could cause rivers to descend from the sky—and that wasn’t impossible.
“Let’s do this…”
Thinking quietly to himself, Luo Yong then hurriedly left the tent.
The Luo Family did have Rain Seeking Talismans,
but Luo Yong didn’t have any on hand.
So he had to go back and get some before returning.
“Hm?”
“Where are you going?”
Inside the tent, Tang Jian, seeing Luo Yong who seemed to be leaving, asked with some confusion.
“I’m going to fetch something…”
Luo Yong replied.
Tang Jian’s eyes narrowed slightly with a flicker of puzzlement, “Fetch something? What are you fetching?”
Tang Jian wondered silently in his mind.
However, before he could voice his question,
Luo Yong had already disappeared from the Commander’s Tent.
…
Following the White Lotus Stockade’s second offensive against the Luo Family,
the members of the Jiang Family who had entered the territory of Huai Shui County,
finally arrived outside of Qingshi City.
“Uncle Jiang, is this Qingshi Town?”
“I heard before that Qingshi Town was just a small town, but now…”
“I never expected Qingshi Town to have transformed into this.”
“It truly is somewhat shocking.”
Beside Jiang Yan, a young man couldn’t help but speak out.
The youth was the son of the Family Head of the Jiang Family,
named Jiang Wugui.
In the entire Jiang Family, even throughout the entire Shang Heng District, Jiang Wugui’s cultivation talent was considered one of the most top-notch.
It could almost be said that whether the Jiang Family would rise or decline
depended entirely on Jiang Wugui, the Young Master of the Jiang Family.
“It used to be Qingshi Town, now it has become Qingshi County City.
“The county seat of Huai Shui County has already moved to this Qingshi City.”
By the youth’s side, Jiang Yan calmly explained.
“Is that so?”
Jiang Wugui quietly nodded, then he inquired in a low voice to Jiang Yan beside him, “This time we have come to the Luo Family for my sister’s marriage?”
Jiang Yan did not speak; he simply nodded his head in silence.
“Uncle Jiang, I’ve heard from others that Luo Yao of the Luo Family is not a good person. With over a dozen wives and concubines at the Luo Family Ancestral Land, and several of them pregnant, under these circumstances, Luo Yao still has the audacity to pursue my sister. That truly is the height of shamelessness…”
Jiang Wugui spoke quite casually,
as if he would give Luo Yao a good beating then and there, just to give his sister some vindication.
And as for Jiang Wugui’s attitude, although Jiang Yan’s eyebrows slightly furrowed, he still did not utter any words of restraint.
