Chapter 761 Pei Xingjian and Han Xin have arrived at the battlefield!
"Long Junzuo, you've lost."
Xiang Yu's voice echoed in the night sky, tinged with contempt.
Long Junzuo's heart sank. He knew that he had indeed lost to the ruthless villain who had captured and killed the Sparrow King.
Following the King of Sparrows, he, the commander of the Great Yong Dragon Sparrow Army who controlled the last force in Sparrow Province, was also defeated by the overlord on the other side.
But the surging hatred and anger within him made him unwilling to fall at Xiang Yu's feet.
He gritted his teeth, raised his spear again, and tried to fight Xiang Yu to the death.
However, Xiang Yu no longer gave him another chance.
He laughed loudly and swung the Heavenly Dragon City-Breaking Halberd in his hand once again. This time, his target was no longer Long Junzuo, but the core of the Dayong Dragon Sparrow Army's formation.
"boom!"
With a loud bang, the formation of the Dayong Dragon Sparrow Army was instantly torn apart.
The Overlord Cavalry surged in like a black torrent, relentlessly reaping the lives of the Dayong Dragon Sparrow Army soldiers.
Upon seeing this, Long Junzuo was filled with immense grief.
He tried to organize a counterattack, but it was too late. He could only watch helplessly as his soldiers fell one by one.
"That traitor Xiang!"
Long Junzuo roared, but at this moment his roar could not change anything.
He felt a wave of helplessness wash over him, as if he had lost his soul.
Looking at the scene before him, Xiang Yu laughed loudly, raising his Heavenly Dragon City-Breaking Halberd high as if to announce his victory to the whole world.
"Long Junzuo, do you know? I, Xiang Yu, have never been defeated since I first rose to prominence! This was true for the Sparrow King of Jiangdong, it was true for the Sparrow King of Sparrow State, and now your Great Yong Dragon Sparrow Army will be no exception!"
Xiang Yu's arrogant voice echoed in the night sky, carrying a hint of arrogance and unruliness.
Instantly, the Dragon Sparrow is shattered!
At this moment, the dark black energy on the battlefield was like a surging undercurrent, tearing the formation of the Dayong Dragon Sparrow Army to shreds.
Long Junzuo's roar sounded particularly desolate amidst the chaos, but it was powerless to reverse the defeat.
Just then, dust billowed on the distant horizon as two massive armies surged in like a tide, bringing new variables to the battlefield.
Urged on by Han Xin, Pei Xingjian led 30,000 Wenzhou soldiers, hastily assembled from Wenzhou City, to arrive first.
Although the 30,000 hastily assembled Wenzhou army was not an elite force, it could be considered the limit of Wenzhou's capabilities.
Dressed in a white robe, Pei Xingjian, exuding the air of a refined general, sat on his horse with a furrowed brow, looking at the mess before him, feeling somewhat helpless.
He could tell at a glance that even the Daoist soldiers led by the three war gods, Long Junzuo and his army—the Dayong Dragon Sparrow Army—were in such a miserable state when facing a peerless general like Xiang Yu.
With only his hastily assembled army, his chances of victory are probably still slim.
However, as a general under the Nine Heavens Army, and constantly urged by Han Xin, he did not think of backing down, nor could he let his soldiers see his hesitation.
"Form ranks!"
At Pei Xingjian's command, the Wenzhou army behind him quickly formed ranks. Although their movements were slightly clumsy, they did not falter at the crucial moment.
Pei Xingjian could also sense that this battle was not only about the survival of Long Junzuo and even the Longque Army of Dayong, but also about the general situation of Wenzhou in the future.
If this battle is a major defeat, and Long Junzuo and even the entire Longque Army of Dayong are buried here, allowing this dragon-like Xiang Yu to swagger into Wenzhou, the consequences would be unimaginable!

At the same time, Han Xin, leading the remaining 20,000 Wenzhou soldiers and his own 40,000 Jiuxiao soldiers, also rushed over from the rear.
Having thoroughly studied Xiang Yu through the Luo Wang network, Han Xin understood even more clearly that Xiang Yu's martial prowess and wisdom were both top-notch, and this battle would probably be no easy task!
But we must fight this battle with all our might!
Otherwise, if Xiang Yu enters Wenzhou and Long Junzuo and the Dayong Longque Army are wiped out, then all the results he has achieved by foolishly staying under the city of Wenzhou for so long will be destroyed!
"Speed up the march!"
Han Xin waved the command flag in his hand. With his military command ability, he quickly united the 40,000-strong Jiuxiao Army and the remaining 20,000 Wenzhou Army into a force that could not be ignored.
Meanwhile, when Pei Xingjian's 30,000 Wenzhou troops encountered Xiang Yu's Overlord Cavalry, the atmosphere on the battlefield instantly became tense.
Although Pei Xingjian was a scholar-general with unique strategic vision, he also felt a bit of pressure in the face of absolute military force.
Although he had never personally witnessed Xiang Yu's battlefield dominance, Pei Xingjian knew that a direct confrontation was by no means a wise move.
Therefore, they decisively adopted a roundabout tactic to try to distract Xiang Yu and buy time for Han Xin's arrival.
"Hmph, another bunch of worthless scoundrels!"
Xiang Yu sneered, his face full of disdain. He had long regarded Long Junzuo as his own and did not take Pei Xingjian's 30,000 Wenzhou soldiers, whom he considered extremely weak, seriously at all.
"Hmph, another bunch of worthless scoundrels!"
Xiang Yu sneered, his face full of disdain. He had long regarded Long Junzuo as his own and did not take Pei Xingjian's 30,000 Wenzhou soldiers, whom he considered extremely weak, seriously at all.
"Xiang Yu's reputation has spread far and wide, and seeing him today, I can confirm that his reputation is well-deserved."
"I wonder if King Xiang is willing to spare General Long and the Dragon Sparrow Army of Dayong's lives?"
Pei Xingjian was not annoyed. He smiled calmly and cupped his hands in greeting.
"People of the Great Qian Nine Heavens Army? Who do you think you are? Do you think you're worthy to negotiate with me?"
"But you've come at the right time! Today, your Nine Heavens Army will also become my stepping stones!"
Xiang Yu scoffed, showing no respect whatsoever.
Pei Xingjian was not angry; he merely chuckled and then commanded his 30,000 Wenzhou soldiers to launch an offensive.
Although they were not elite troops, under Pei Xingjian's skillful command, they were able to hold their own against the Overlord Cavalry.
Moreover, Pei Xingjian knew that the key to his victory lay in stalling for time and waiting for Han Xin's arrival.
On the battlefield, swords gleamed and fierce energy filled the air.
The Wenzhou army and the Overlord Cavalry fought fiercely, suffering heavy casualties, but Pei Xingjian remained calm and composed throughout.
He constantly adjusted his tactics, trying to find a weakness in Xiang Yu's defenses.
However, Xiang Yu was like an unstoppable beast, each attack precise and deadly. His dark aura was like a gaping maw of an abyss, devouring all enemies in his path and keeping the Wenzhou army constantly on the run.
Just as Pei Xingjian was beginning to feel his strength waning, the deafening sound of horses' hooves came from afar once again.
Han Xin finally arrived with an army of 60,000!
Although the Wenzhou army was brave, it still appeared too fragile in the face of such absolute power.
Han Xin, the rising star commander of the Nine Heavens Army, finally revealed his true strength at this moment.
He rode his warhorse, holding a command flag, with the remaining 20,000 Wenzhou soldiers and 40,000 Jiuxiao soldiers forming a formidable force behind him.
Although these armies were temporarily assembled from different forces, under Han Xin's skillful command of the army, they were forcibly united into a single force, seemingly transforming into an invincible iron army.
