Chapter 340 Waiting for an Opportunity

Hua Kai watched the fighting between the Baoyu Pass defenders and the Donghu army every day at Baoyu Pass. After all, the White Tiger Corps only had 2,000 people, plus 2,000 reserve corps, which was only 4,000. After half a month of defense, the casualties were nearly half, and Yu Jun had begun to send slave soldiers and militia to defend the city as much as possible.

Entering July, the Donghu army gradually mastered the way to deal with Baoyu Pass. They knew that the main force in front of them was actually more than 2,000 elite defenders. Slave soldiers and militia were not a big threat to them, so they began to send masters above the Qi training realm to kill the White Tiger Corps as much as possible.

"After receiving news from Jicheng, the Donghu army has occupied more than ten cities in Yan State after entering the Great Wall from the north of Yan State. They are now starting to sweep all areas north of Jicheng. It seems that they want to occupy the entire northern part of Yan State before fighting a decisive battle with Yan State. Yan State is now at an absolute disadvantage. Yan State has won less and lost more in several battles." Hua Kai came to Yu Jun's war room and said to him.

Yu Jun hasn't had a good rest for many days. He is the only one in the White Tiger Corps. It is not easy to prepare for the enemy's surprise attack.

"What do you think about the threat that Donghu will pose to Yan this time? If it continues like this, the whole Yan may be in chaos!" Yu Jun looked at Hua Kai and said.

Hua Kai once said that the Yan family could easily deal with the threats from Donghu and the big families such as Zhu and Feng, but now there is a trend of chaos in the northern part of Yan.

"Haha, this only shows that the King of Yan is cruel! Didn't you see that the noble families of Qi and others were not panicked at all? We sent people to Qi for help, but they didn't even bother to reply.

This time, Yan State completely solved the domestic disloyal noble families at one time. When it's time to jump out, some noble families will definitely not be able to hold back, which is just right for the Yan family to solve at one time. If I were the King of Donghu, I would definitely not be unaware of this. The main target of Donghu's attack this time must still be Gaoliu County. The noble families such as Zhu and Feng want to occupy the magpie's nest and seize the right to speak in Donghu. How could the King of Donghu put the core of the attack on Yan? This time, Donghu must take down our Hua family in any way." Hua Kai said silently.

Yu Jun also nodded after listening. Since the Battle of Baoyuguan, more than 2,000 elite soldiers, nearly 10,000 slave soldiers, and more than 3,000 militiamen have been lost. Now the White Tiger Corps is under increasing pressure. At most, the White Tiger Corps will be consumed in half a month.

"Let the Suzaku Corps come! You have been using more slave soldiers from Gaoliu City recently. The battle may become more intense later. We can't waste all the White Tiger Corps here." Hua Kai said in a deep voice.

The main force of the Suzaku Corps is composed of all the affiliated families and family members of the Hua family. They are powerful but not good at defense. They can't defend the city wall by relying on slave soldiers. Hua Kai will suffer heavy losses in slave soldiers and Suzaku Corps, but they have to do so here.

"It can only be like this. I will let the White Tiger Corps train the Suzaku Corps this afternoon, and only some White Tiger Corps commanders will stay tomorrow." Yu Jun nodded and said.

Hua Kai didn't want to fight a war of attrition with the Donghu Kingdom. He didn't take action because he was looking for an opportunity. If he seized this opportunity, he might be able to cripple the Donghu Kingdom in one fell swoop. But the King of Donghu seemed unusually calm. He never showed up in the army, so Hua Kai's plan could not be implemented.

When the Suzaku Corps became the main force in the defense of Baoyu Pass, the Donghu army was often able to attack the city wall. All the members of the noble families in Gaoliu County fought to the death and pushed the Donghu army down the city wall. However, the Suzaku Corps also suffered heavy losses. In just ten days, more than 2,000 of the 5,000 Suzaku Corps were killed or wounded, and more than 15,000 slave soldiers in Gaoliu City were injured. The Hua family had left more than 30,000 bodies in Baoyu Pass.

The Donghu army suffered greater losses than the Hua family. They had more than 100,000 casualties. Now they had to rely on elite cavalry to dismount and attack the city to have a chance to climb the wall. Both sides were making the last stand.

This day, Hua Kai stood under the city wall and saw the Suzaku Corps repel the enemy again. By now, the Suzaku Corps was almost crippled. He had notified his fourth uncle Hua Zihuan to dispatch 2,000 Xuanwu Corps, leaving only 2,000 reserve members of the Xuanwu Corps for the defense of Gaoliu City.

Today, the Donghu army's offensive was very fierce. Many of their soldiers climbed up the ladders with long spears. The Baoyuguan bows and arrows shot at their leather armor and could not cause much damage to them. The Donghu army actually sent their elite cavalry up.

Long weapons are not conducive to sieges, and long weapons are a burden when climbing ladders. However, these Donghu elites are walking briskly on the ladders, and the speed of climbing the city is extremely fast. Yu Jun has sent 5,000 slave soldiers and 1,000 elite soldiers of the Suzaku Legion to stop them, but it is difficult to suppress the opponent today. Some city walls have been breached, and some Donghu soldiers are about to break through the city wall defense.

There are crowds of people on the wall, and the commander of the White Tiger Legion ordered all slaves to rush up to block the enemy's attack. The Qinglong Legion kept killing every enemy that appeared in front of them! Or be killed by the enemy.

At this time, Hua Kai saw a bloody soldier of the White Tiger Legion coming over and shouting at him.

"Master, the Donghu army has launched a general attack. Captain Yu told you to prepare to deal with the opponent's Xiantian realm. The Donghu army has all gathered and left the camp. They are going to fight us."

As he was speaking, Hua Kai saw a Donghu Xiantian realm who had already attacked the city wall. He specifically avoided the siege of the slave soldiers and chased the elite soldiers of the White Tiger and Vermillion Bird Legions.

Hua Kai stretched out his right hand, and the [Dragon Gall Spear] appeared in his hand. He stretched his body and quickly killed the opponent's Xiantian realm. In just a breath, Hua Kai crossed a distance of 100 meters. The opponent seemed to sense danger and turned his head to look at Hua Kai.

[Dragon Gall Spear] stabbed at the opponent's chest, and [Ice Power] naturally merged with the true energy. The Xiantian realm ignored other attacks around and defended Hua Kai's spear with all his strength.

But when the broadsword in his hand collided with the [Dragon Gallbladder Spear], the face of the Donghu Xiantian Realm showed a look of horror. He could hear the clear sound of his arm breaking bones. He finally dodged Hua Kai's full-strength attack, and a powerful [Ice Power] entered his body. Before he could react, Hua Kai's [Dragon Gallbladder Spear] came again.

The Donghu Xiantian Realm stared with fear, his neck was pierced by the [Dragon Gallbladder Spear], and the whole person quickly turned into an ice sculpture.

Hua Kai killed an Xiantian Realm of the other side, and saw that another Qi Refining Realm Great Perfection of the other side had entered the wall. He solved the opponent's life with one move. Seeing that the wall formation could still be stabilized, he waited for the opponent's masters to come in the inner layer of the wall.

All Xiantian Realm could not survive more than ten moves in Hua Kai's hands, and all were left in the Leopard Jade Pass. Hua Kai had killed five Xiantian Realm and more than twenty late Qi Refining Realm masters in just over an hour. The Leopard Jade Pass looked shaky, but the Donghu army could not break through after all.

After killing another Donghu Xiantian, Hua Kai saw a five-meter-wide gap in the city wall. Countless Donghu soldiers rushed in from there. They had entered Baoyu Pass and started street fighting. Baoyu Pass seemed to be unable to hold out after two months of defense.

Hua Kai jumped onto the wall of the pass and killed the other side's masters above the Qi training realm. There were still 30,000 troops inside Baoyu Pass, and 20,000 troops waiting in the south of the pass. Even if the Donghu army broke through the wall of Baoyu Pass, it would not be easy to step into the south of the pass.

After killing for half an hour, Hua Kai killed three Xiantians and more than 40 Qi training realms. He could clearly feel that he had begun to be affected by karma, and his mood became impatient. After entering the half-step foundation building, the influence of karma on people became greater and greater, so he had to meet the late Qi training realm and above before taking action.

"Master, be careful!"

Yu Jun's voice came from the side. Hua Kai saw a figure outside the pass flying towards him quickly. He used the [Eye of Truth] to check the other party's fifth-level foundation building cultivation. This was the King of Donghu.

The King of Donghu has been patient until now, and only when he saw that all the cards of Baoyu Pass had been played did he take action to take Baoyu Pass in one fell swoop. Seeing this, Hua Kai put down some of his worries. He saw that the Qinglong Corps had already launched an attack on the Donghu army in the distance, and tens of thousands of Donghu elite cavalry were fighting with them.

The Donghu army has drawn too many masters to attack the walls of Baoyu Pass. There are very few masters above the Qi training realm in the rear cavalry. Hua Zichen is leading the Qinglong Corps to quickly kill the Donghu elite cavalry. Now the competition is to see whether the Donghu army will break through Baoyu Pass first, or whether Hua Zichen can break through the defense of the opponent's 50,000 troops and attack the Donghu army's food and grass camp.

A phantom of a [Tiger Head Spear] more than ten meters long appeared above Baoyu Pass. All the Donghu soldiers were alert after seeing it. This is their king taking action.

Hua Kai looked at the shadow of the spear coming towards him, knowing that the opponent's attack was mainly to boost the morale of his soldiers. The phantom of the strange image seems powerful, but in fact, the attack power is dispersed due to the large area, and the effect is very small.

The opponent did not take him seriously at all. Hua Kai raised the [Dragon Gallbladder Spear] and gathered the ice power with the spear body, and rushed towards the King of Donghu at a high speed. The Leopard Jade Pass suddenly became cold. Hua Kai's [Dragon Gallbladder Spear] pierced the opponent's [Tiger Head Spear] phantom and collided with the opponent.

"Bang!"

A clear golden sound rang out, Hua Kai retreated more than ten meters in the air, and the King of Donghu also retreated more than five meters. The two stabilized their bodies and fought each other again.

Compared with the innate realm, the foundation-building realm is the mastery of the power of the will of heaven and earth. Any of their moves carry their own understanding of the will of heaven and earth. Hua Kai's three major attributes are not lower than the King of Donghu. Although he has not yet completed the foundation building, his nearly 40% [Ice Power] has caused great trouble to the Donghu army. Hua Kai is not afraid of the influence of the opponent's golden will on himself, but the opponent cannot offset Hua Kai's will.

The two fought in the air for more than ten minutes. Hua Kai was always at a disadvantage, but he was able to remain undefeated. He suffered losses in several head-on collisions with the opponent and his body was seriously injured. The opponent was also affected by his [Ice Power] and his movements began to slow down.
