The ancient god lord

Chapter 388: Zhou’s stronghold was captured

"Thank you for your help, without your help, we would not have been able to kill these Chu soldiers so easily." At this time, a warrior of the eighth level of the martial king realm came to Jiang Chen and others and clasped his fists to thank them.

This warrior of the eighth level is the strongest person in the Zhou army and also the one with the highest position.

"This is our job. We are all from the Great Zhou Dynasty. Although we are mercenaries, the Chu army is also our enemy. By the way, how is the battle here?" Jiang Chen asked.

"The rest of you, clean up the battlefield quickly. I believe it won't be long before the Chu army will attack again. We must collect the spoils before they arrive." Jiang Chen said to Di Tielong and others.

"Okay." Di Tielong and others said excitedly, and quickly collected the heads of the Chu soldiers, as well as other spoils.

"The situation is very bad. The Chu army's offensive is too fierce. Now the entire stronghold area has been breached. The Chu army has rushed in. Our people are desperately blocking the Chu army's attack, but the Chu army keeps rushing in. We want to retreat, but we are held tightly by the Chu army. We just received news that we should abandon this area and retreat to Kangnan City first. On the way to Kangnan City, there are other elite troops guarding and supporting us." The eighth-level Martial King Realm Zhou Army General said.

"Kangnan City? Okay, you retreat first, leave this to us temporarily. As for the spoils of war, you Zhou army will take 20%. Is this a problem?" Jiang Chen said.

Killing so many Chu soldiers is not a small achievement.

"No, no, no, if it weren't for you, few of us here would survive. These achievements should still belong to you. Okay, without further ado, we will withdraw first." The eighth-level Martial King Realm Zhou Army General said.

After speaking, he withdrew with other Zhou soldiers.

Wars also broke out in other areas of the stronghold. Whether they could withdraw or not depended on their luck. It can be said that in this battle, the Zhou army was at a disadvantage. Many strongholds were breached by the Chu army and had to retreat.

Of course, the Chu army also paid a great price to capture the major strongholds, with many casualties.

The Zhou army also suffered heavy casualties and lost a lot of territory. Some of the defensive formations arranged in advance were also destroyed by the Chu army.

Jiang Chen also took this opportunity to devour the blood and energy of these corpses. The blood and energy of so many people made Jiang Chen's aura rise rapidly, and he successfully entered the tenth level of the Martial King Realm, and his strength went a step further.

Not long after the Zhou army evacuated, smoke and dust billowed not far away, indicating that someone was killing here.

"Sir, it's not good. A large number of Chu troops are killing not far away. What should we do?" A mercenary in charge of sentry said.

"Retreat first." Jiang Chen said.

Judging from the movement in the distance, the number of Chu troops is no less than 10,000. It seems that the other Zhou troops in the stronghold have either been wiped out or retreated. Now most of the area control of the stronghold has fallen into the hands of the Chu army.

Even if Jiang Chen and others kill this group of Chu troops, there will be more Chu troops, and they will lose a lot of people. It is not the time to fight them head-on.

Under the leadership of Jiang Chen, everyone also evacuated here.

When the Chu army came here, Jiang Chen and others had disappeared. Looking at the corpses of many Chu soldiers around, their heads were taken away, which made the Chu army very angry.

According to the description of the hundreds of Chu soldiers who escaped earlier, the enemy that caused them to lose so many Chu soldiers was a mercenary. These mercenaries were powerful, and the leader of the tenth level of the Martial King Realm was killed instantly by the other party.

"Hmph, these people escaped quickly, but we have already captured this stronghold. The initial plan has been realized. Let's go back and count the losses. Also, let's look for other remnants of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the stronghold. Once we find these people, we will arrest them all. If they dare to resist, we will kill them all." The leading general of the second level of the Martial Emperor Realm said.

"Yes, General." The other Chu soldiers obeyed the order and searched the surrounding area first. They did not find the whereabouts of Jiang Chen and others at all.

Soon, the entire stronghold fell into the hands of the Chu army, and the Chu army also counted the losses.

After Jiang Chen left here, he led this mercenary to fight in other areas and encountered other Chu troops again. However, the number of Chu troops was not large, and they were easily eliminated by Jiang Chen and others, and more than a thousand Chu troops were killed again.

After two battles, Jiang Chen and others killed 4,000 Chu soldiers, which was a huge military achievement and could be exchanged for a lot of spirit stones.

However, they also lost more than 60 people, basically mercenaries with the cultivation level of the Martial Sect Realm.

This loss is considered small. Although they know how to attack together, it is normal to have losses in the face of so many enemies.

Jiang Chen and others also retreated to a safe place. The previous mercenary base was also abandoned because the Chu army had occupied the nearby Zhou army base. It was inevitable to find the mercenary base, so they could not stay there. Instead, they followed the direction of the Zhou army's retreat and evacuated.

"Sir, we killed so many enemies this time. We made a fortune." Metro Dragon was excited.

Unexpectedly, they could get such a big harvest by following Jiang Chen to fight. Most of the enemy's strongmen were dealt with by Jiang Chen, and they were much more relaxed.

"This is just the beginning. The battles to come will be even more brutal. Everyone should be mentally prepared. If any of you want to quit, you can tell me in advance. Everything is voluntary and will not be forced. By the way, for those brothers who died in battle, we will return their belongings to their families afterwards." Jiang Chen said.

In order to facilitate management, Jiang Chen had made a roster before, and everyone was recorded. If someone unfortunately died in battle, then the person's property would be sent to his family.

This made many mercenaries feel that Jiang Chen's approach was righteous.

The bounty that the dead should have received would also be sent to their family or friends.

The attack of the Chu army lasted for three days, and the defense line arranged by the Zhou army was completely broken. The Zhou army could only retreat to the rear area and confront the Chu army.

The two sides fought from time to time, but they were not large-scale battles. The Great Zhou Dynasty lost part of its territory and was occupied by the Chu army.

The Chu army's plan was successful, and all the strongholds of the Zhou army were destroyed, eliminating the 370,000 troops of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The army of Da Chu also lost about 300,000 people. It can be said that in this battle, the Chu army had the upper hand.

Jiang Chen only had a few hundred soldiers and limited strength, and could not change the situation, which made Jiang Chen a little embarrassed.

In a large-scale battle, Jiang Chen had few people and it was difficult to play a role.

Suddenly, Jiang Chen thought of a person, Wu Ren. When Jiang Chen went to Dongwu Island before, he took a merchant ship and was attacked by a sea beast on the way. Jiang Chen turned the tide, killed the monster, and saved everyone's life.

The captain of the merchant ship was Wu Ren, a second-level martial emperor, who said that if Jiang Chen needed anything in the future, he could go to him.
