I'm only one year old, what the heck is a Overturning System?!-Chapter 337 - 163: I Come From Heaven (Please Subscribe)

At this moment, South-Garrison Pass.

Woo—The long-drawn horn sounds pierced through the sky.

Mixing within were the ceaseless sounds of the gong and drum.

Yet these blood-boiling drum and horn sounds could still not obscure the clashing noises of battle inside and outside the city walls.

The shouts in Barbarian and Wei languages were chaotic and cluttered, covering this majestic strong pass extending over a hundred miles.

On the pass, each soldier brandished their weapons with ferocious expressions.

The arrows whistled, shields thudded, and wherever the blade’s edge pointed, there followed the tearing sound of flesh and blood bursting open.

Comrades fell into puddles of blood beside them, but they had no time to grieve, only to fight more desperately.

Below the city walls.

Barbarian Warriors carried giant shields and repeatedly charged up the scaling ladders, only to be repelled time and again.

Bodies piled up below, with scattered limbs and fresh blood, but soon they were drenched in poured oil and burnt to ashes.

Far off, various unique shapes of Little Demons carried Catapults on their backs, continuously hurling giant stones at the soldiers atop the city wall.

"Kill, kill them!"

"Damn Barbarians, I’ll fight you with my life!"

"Twenty Catapults to the southwest, where are the archers? Kill those beasts for me!"

"Be careful..."

Some powerful defenders faced the Barbarians charging up the walls and met them head-on, collaboratively surrounding to kill them.

After great effort, they threw the attacking Barbarians down and immediately rushed to the next spot to assist.

At South-Garrison Pass, Marquis Baihua, Pang Zongkang, and Marquis Annan Xu Hengjun were stationed at the Central Army, watching the Barbarian Clan army outside the pass with grave expressions.

"Zongkang, when will the reinforcements arrive?"

Xu Hengjun, tall and robust, clad in brown-gray armor, with two Mountain-opening Axes on his back, his rugged face filled with anxiety.

In contrast, Pang Zongkang looked more upright and handsome, slightly slender, with a Red Tassel Spear lying across his lap. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

He furrowed his brows observing the slaughter on the walls, directing the generals by his side to launch rescue attacks while replying:

"The Prince has already personally led the main army from Wangchuan County, they will arrive within two hours!"

After speaking, he turned to another person: "Activate the Array at the location of Block Ding-65 in the west, the duration is two quarter-hours."

"Liu Gai, go and support, make sure to destroy that Array of the demon’s Catapults, be careful."

"Yes!"

Orders were distributed methodically from the center; Xu Hengjun, seeing this, felt no relief.

"The Prince is coming too slow! Two hours—by then, many soldiers might be severely wounded or dead!"

"These Barbarians are determined to break through the South-Garrison Pass this time!"

"Did you see? A group of Shamans are only stationed below the city, blocking all attacks, covering the Barbarian Warriors’ ascent."

"Whenever we deploy generals to go down and challenge, Great Demons from afar rush to support, inflicting heavy casualties on our soldiers!"

This time, the Southern Barbarian Sect was too well-prepared, as if they knew their defensive battle techniques from the start of the siege, and countered them one by one.

Even activating the Array on the city was eventually invaded and sabotaged by the Blood Shadow Secret Technique cast by Shamans rushing up later under the cover of Barbarian Warriors.

Plus, the collaboration of an array of demons attacking, tipped the balance of the battlefield completely in favor of the Barbarian Clan.

From the start, the soldiers at South-Garrison Pass were submerged into a quagmire, forced into close combat with Barbarian Warriors.

Pang Zongkang, sitting upright and composed, upon hearing this showed no change in expression, and said with calm:

"Defend at all costs!"

The short four words expressed his resolution.

Xu Hengjun did not need to elaborate; he was also aware that the current situation was disadvantageous.

But he understood even better, if South-Garrison Pass were to be lost under his command, not only him, but the efforts of all the soldiers at the pass would be in vain.

"What we are contesting now is who loses patience first, at any cost, Elder Wu and the others must not make the first move."

"Avoid the situation like the battle at Beixiong Pass thirty years ago, where Zhou Guanwu’s soldiers acted rashly, leading to them falling into the cruel hands of the Demon Court."

King against king, general against general, soldier against soldier, this was always the rule of the front-line battlefield.

Especially during offenses and defenses, before the critical moment, those with strong powers would not make a move.

Even if the soldiers suffered heavy losses, they would remain indifferent.

"Currently, the situation on the battlefield below is not too chaotic, mutual casualties are a common occurrence."

"If they rashly enter the battlefield, the Southern Barbarian Sect from the other side would also send the Barbarian King to act."

"But..."

Before Xu Hengjun could finish, two soldiers clad in chainmail, one after another, came running over anxiously to report:

"Report!"

"Both generals, urgent news from the twelve-li defense line on the west, Deputy General Liu Gai has fallen in battle, and the fortress of Jia-14 has been occupied by Barbarian Warriors!"

"Captain Ma’s archers were struck by demon’s Catapult stones, sustaining grave injuries, destructing the fortifications at Yi-45 on the east!"

"The eastern Array foundations have been completely destroyed, eighty percent of the defense works and large bow and crossbow Artifacts also..."

"How is that possible?!"

Xu Hengjun, furious, hair and beard bristling, stared with bulging eyes at the messenger.

"How could the Barbarians destroy all the Array foundations, which are kept secret in the pass?"

"What about the Array Eye in the east? Is it still intact?"

The chainmailed soldier showed a troubled expression, stammering: "The two teams of sword and shield soldiers guarding the Array Eye have, have all perished."

Enraged even more, Xu Hengjun threw down the reporting soldier, pulled out the Mountain-opening Axe from his back, and charged out directly.

This time, Pang Zongkang did not stop him, a trace of worry showing on his stern face.

After three breaths, he slowly stood up.

He looked at the sections of the fortification already occupied by the Barbarian Warriors and those perished soldiers, casually glancing toward the rear of the Barbarian forces where three gigantic Barbarian Kings, each several dozens of meters tall, stood.

A moment later, he unclasped the Token from his waist and handed it to a soldier beside him, saying: "Inform them to make their move now."
