Compared to the first encounter with the deep-sea monsters.
The scene of the Red Armored Cavalry led by ten-thousand-household Zhang Chun in the encounter with the second batch of deep-sea monsters could completely be described as tragic.
During the first charge, because they failed to scatter the monsters, resulting in only more than a hundred out of more than a thousand monsters being slain.
When the monsters caught their breath, the Red Armored Cavalry immediately fell into a hard battle.
At least a hundred Red Armor Cavalry died in the counterattack of the sea monsters, being pulled off their horses and devoured by the monsters.
Fortunately, Zhang Chun, the ten-thousand-household, promptly adjusted and dispersed the cavalry formation. With three hundred people in a formation, after re-opening the distance, they began to charge the monsters alternately from the flanks.
This time, at least three hundred monsters were killed.
However, the damage on the Red Armor Cavalry side also exceeded a hundred again.
When the number of monsters was reduced by half, some of the monsters that had eaten the flesh began to retreat into the sea, and some used the two whale monsters as shields, with the flying shark monsters as cover, and continued to attack the city while killing the Red Armor Cavalry.
These monsters that had eaten the flesh would survive for more than seven days, and the Red Armor Cavalry naturally could not let them return to the sea.
So Zhang Chun divided the troops into two parts, one part surrounded and killed the monsters that tried to return to the sea, and the other part began to hunt the whale monsters.
Unlike the previous battle, the strength of these two whale monsters was obviously one level higher. Under the repeated impacts of Zhang Chun leading the Red Armor Cavalry, finally, in the chanting of the ‘Sixteen-Character proverbs’ one whale monster was surrounded and killed.
As soon as the whale monster fell, the sea monsters covered by it immediately died in large numbers under the charge of the Red Armor Cavalry.
This time, the Red Armor Cavalry lost nearly three hundred, and more than six hundred monsters were killed.
There were still more than seven hundred monsters left, as well as one of the most difficult whale monsters.
“Bang！ ……”
Almost at the same time as Zhang Chun, the ten-thousand-household, pierced the fallen whale demon with a single shot, among the three thousand-household commanders who led the team to besiege the whale demon, two of them were blown into a cloud of blood mist by the water bubbles spit out from the mouth of the whale demon.
The formations of the three teams of Red Armor Cavalry were then thrown into chaos.
Fortunately, Zhang Chun, the ten-thousand-household, promptly ordered those three teams of Red Armor Cavalry to retreat and quickly integrate into the formation behind them. Otherwise, at least several hundred more Red Armor Cavalry would have been lost this time.
“Boom！”
Just as several teams of Red Armor Cavalry had just retreated, the huge whale demon pulled out a huge bone hammer from its mouth and smashed it heavily on the city gate with one hammer.
“Bang！ …”
The gate that required more than a hundred people to pull the wheel rope together to close was actually violently shaken by the whale demon’s one hammer, and the runes shining on the gate also darkened a lot in an instant.
At this moment, Xu Taiping finally understood why the Red Armor Cavalry of Tianhai Pass would desperately stop the whale demon from attacking the city.
“Boom！”
However, after the whale demon smashed the first hammer, Zhang Chun, the ten-thousand-household, had already led the Red Armor Cavalry and charged towards the whale demon.
The Red Armor Cavalry, carrying the giant shield transformed by the fighting spirit and the righteous spirit, under the violent charge, heavily struck the body of the whale demon.
“Bang！”
Just one charge, and the whale demon was already staggering on its feet and a bit unsteady.
“Bang！”
With the second and third charges led by the thousand-household commanders behind Zhang Chun, the huge whale demon finally fell to the ground.
At this moment, including Zhang Chun, all the Red Armor Cavalry finally had a glimmer of luster on their tired faces.
It’s finally over.
“Boom！”
But just as this thought crossed their minds, the fallen whale demon suddenly had a crack open in its brow, and a red glow shot out from it.
A palpitating breath fluctuation then spread out like waves, centered on the whale demon.
“This whale demon must have just eaten human flesh and is now about to break through！”
After seeing this scene, Zhang Liang on the city tower, whose expression had originally relaxed a little, suddenly tensed up again.
“Just a king-level whale demon can emit such a terrifying smell ？”
XuTaipingalso frowned.
The whale demon indeed broke through, but more than the breakthrough, what made him more concerned was the smell fluctuation that the whale demon was emitting at this time which did not match that of an ordinary king-level monster.
And on the battlefield, the ten-thousand-household Zhang Chun, as if he didn’t notice at all that the whale demon was breaking through, without hesitation, once again led his team of Red Armor Cavalry to charge towards the whale demon.
Because he knew better than anyone that as long as this whale demon stood up again, the remaining more than a thousand cavalry of theirs simply had no chance of winning.
“Boom！”
During this charge, as the ten-thousand-household Zhang Chun’s long spear stabbed, the fighting spirit of the Red Armor and the noble spirit also turned into a huge long spear, stabbing straight at the head of that whale demon.
But just as this long spear was about to penetrate the head of that whale demon, that whale demon suddenly sat up violently, then opened its huge mouth and let out a whale’s cry, and then spat out a water bubble towards the charging ten-thousand-household Zhang Chun.
“Bang！”
Because for this charge, Zhang Chun had already made up his mind to succeed or die. The power of this spear far exceeded that of before, and it actually directly pierced through that water bubble and penetrated the head of that whale demon with one shot.
“Boom！”
But before everyone could have time to be happy, they saw that the moment the head of that whale demon was penetrated, it slapped a palm towards Zhang Chun.
Zhang Chun originally had a chance to dodge, but at the last moment, he instinctively turned around and blocked a young Red Armor soldier beside him behind him.
“Bang！”
Zhang Chun was heavily hit by a palm on his back, and his body immediately exploded into a cloud of blood mist.
And the several hundred Red Armor cavalry behind him were also shaken and flew backwards by this palm of the whale demon, and most of them died on the spot.
Some, even if they didn’t die at the beginning, have already been surrounded by the demons that are scrambling to devour their flesh and blood.
The red-armored cavalry on the periphery wanted to rescue, but in a short while, they simply couldn’t rush in.
“Ceng！ ……”
Seeing this scene, Zhang Liang, who had endured for a whole night, finally lost control of his emotions.
I saw him pull out the saber at his waist with a “ceng” sound, and then jumped off the city wall. While roaring “ah”, he ran down the city wall with his feet close to the wall.
Everyone beside was paying attention to the battlefield and didn’t notice Zhang Liang’s actions at the first time. By the time they reacted, Zhang Liang was about to rush to the bottom of the city.
“A-Liang, come back, you can’t save your father like this！”
The old general roared when he saw this.
And the next moment, with a terrifying fluctuation of breath coming from the distant sea, Xu Taiping immediately understood why General Zhang Kaitai was so nervous.
