The grand and imposing Battle of Xilin City has officially begun.

When Qin Tian's three hundred thousand troops successfully arrived at Yellow Stone City, Wu Wang's two hundred thousand troops also simultaneously reached Xilin City.

"Heh, does Wu Wang look down on me that much? I have three hundred thousand troops, and he greets me with two hundred and sixty thousand?"

Upon learning about the troop situation of Wu Wang in Xilin City, Qin Tian chuckled.

Zhuang, standing beside him, said, "Boss, right now even if Wu Wang wants to increase his forces, he can't. Haha. His other over twenty thousand soldiers are still being blocked by General Xu for some tea."

"Hmm, the timing is ripe now; let's give him the final straw."

Qin Tian smiled faintly and immediately issued an order: the three armies should prepare to launch a full-scale attack at sunrise.

At Yellow Stone City, Qin Tian's three hundred thousand troops lined up in formation, looking ready to launch an attack on Xilin City at any moment.

Meanwhile, Wu Wang was standing guard atop the city gate tower of Xilin City, looking solemn and serious.

Qin Tian's army was well-trained and appeared flawless, which left him feeling uncertain.

For the first time, he had fewer troops than Qin Tian; could he win the fight?

He had heard before that Qin Tian was invincible in East State, even the Dragon Clan was not his match.

This was the first battlefield confrontation between Wu Wang and Qin Tian, and also the most significant one.

"Issue an order: crossbowmen prepare and make sure to stop their Flying Beast Soldiers and the vanguard. Xilin City is easy to defend and hard to attack, Qin Tian definitely can't get in!"

Wu Wang encouraged himself.

However, as his soldiers were preparing intensely, he suddenly sensed a sudden disturbance in True Qi energy in the distant sky!

His gaze lifted in an instant, only to see streaks of True Qi energy, like a meteor shower, rushing towards the city gate tower of Xilin City!

"Your Highness, these are the experts Qin Tian invited, whom we encountered in Yellow Stone City! Just look at this powerful True Qi!"

A general whispered to Wu Wang.

"This is not the True Qi of an expert."

Staring at the True Qi Bombs descending from the sky, Wu Wang's expression was serious.

"This should be the mysterious unit Qin Tian used before in East Capital, known as the True Qi Cannon Division!"

Wu Wang remembered these True Qi Bombs because when he managed the Ministry of War, he had received reports about the True Qi Cannon Division.

Not only him, but the forces of the Crown Prince and Ninth Prince also conducted many secret investigations into Qin Tian's mysterious unit.

Unfortunately, after Qin Tian used it once, this mysterious unit seemed to vanish into thin air. No progress was made in tracking it, so the matter was gradually forgotten.

Unexpectedly, Qin Tian was using this mysterious unit again now.

Boom!

Boom!

The city gate tower of Xilin City, of which Wu Wang was proud, was instantly bombarded by True Qi, leaving the soldiers dumbfounded and at a loss since they couldn't see the opponent.

"Your Highness, this thing is too eerie! It's filled entirely with True Qi energy, without any personnel. We can't counterattack, only dodge." A general came up and said.

Wu Wang closely observed the falling True Qi Bombs from the sky, furrowing his brows. "Have the soldiers form True Qi Defense Shields, multiple people combining their strength to block these True Qi energies!"

"As you command!"

The soldiers of Xilin City began forming layers of True Qi Light Waves for defense atop the city gate tower as per Wu Wang's instructions.

But when the True Qi Bombs landed, some True Qi Light Waves formed by soldiers with weak cultivation were directly shattered.

Those soldiers were either severely wounded or instantly killed, a sight so tragic that even Wu Wang's expression changed.

Only a small number of mid-level officers, with cultivation at the Nascent Soul Stage or above, could barely withstand the bombardment of the True Qi Bombs.

However, even though some could withstand it, the city gate tower had already descended into chaos.

"Haha, boss, there are those with high cultivation who can barely resist our bombardment."

Lin Yu observed the situation on the city gate tower from afar.

Qin Tian also observed from afar, saying, "Heaven has the virtue of benevolence, no need to bomb people, just bomb their city tower. It'd be best to blow a breach in their city wall."

"Got it!"

Lin Yu had his men adjust their aim, and the True Qi Bombs were instantly directed at the weaker points of the city gate tower. In less than half an hour, the once seemingly indestructible city gate tower of Xilin City began to show signs of damage.

Even the city walls reinforced with True Qi couldn't withstand the continuous high-intensity bombardment of the True Qi Bombs.

"Your Highness, the city gate tower has been damaged! At this rate, it won't be long before a breach appears making an easier target for attack!" A general hurriedly reported to Wu Wang.

Wu Wang gritted his teeth in anger: "This Qin Tian is truly insidious, actually trying to blast through the city walls!"

He knew very well that repairing the city walls in a short time was highly unlikely.

But faced with Qin Tian's unreasonable attack, he couldn't come up with a countermeasure for a while.

"Hold the line! Stand firm! Soldiers below the Nascent Soul Stage, hide! Everyone else, monitor and be ready to engage at any moment!"

Wu Wang shouted, almost ferociously.

About an hour later, when the great door of Xilin City's gate tower had already been blasted with a large breach by the True Qi Bombs, the bombardment from the sky ceased.

"Boss, it's about time; each True Qi Cannon has fired ninety rounds today. If we continue, the cannons might get damaged, we can't fire anymore."

Lin Yu reported to Qin Tian.

Qin Tian nodded: "It's about time. Ye Kun, Zuo Yuanhao, it's your turn!"

Qin Tian turned and commanded the two men behind him.

The two were raring to go, especially after seeing the gate blasted open by the True Qi Bombs, their biggest obstacle had already been resolved.

The vanguard of one hundred thousand troops, led by Ye Kun and Zuo Yuanhao from both flanks, launched a relentless ground assault on Xilin City.

Simultaneously, Zhao Lanjin commanded three thousand Flying Beast Soldiers, launching a ferocious aerial attack on Xilin City!

"They're coming, unleash full firepower, block them for me!"

On the gate tower, seeing Qin Tian's ground and air forces attacking simultaneously, Wu Wang's expression became menacing. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Under the cover and protection of the Flying Beast Soldiers, Ye Kun's and Zuo Yuanhao's ground forces quickly approached the city gate, engaging in close combat with the garrison of Xilin City.

True Qi clashed violently, the battle beneath the city gate tower of Xilin City was earth-shattering, the entire tower trembled!

"Your Highness, things are bad, there are too many enemy Flying Beast Soldiers, we can hardly hold them off! They're closing in!"

Wu Wang was startled at the words, looking up to see the sky a few thousand meters away, covered with winged Flying Beasts advancing overwhelming under the barrage of True Qi Arrow Rain!
