SURO BLEDEK
Ch. 478 Battle On The Air
"The next attack must not fail. Therefore for the next attack we must concentrate the entire attack on the North side only. So that we can confirm the attack this time we are able to break through the gate of He Bei city fortress."
The Sky Khan invited King Yeongyang of Goguryeo Kingdom to discuss the attack they would be carrying out tomorrow. They felt that the attack they had carried out just now had failed.
Although the attack had killed many imperial soldiers, as long as they had not managed to break through the gates, it was proof of their failure.
"I agree and accept your proposal" King Yeongyang of the Kingdom of Goguryeo welcomed the proposal and explanation of the Sky Khan.
"I don't mind that proposal. But we should from now on think about how to overcome the attack of explosive balls that cause severe fires.
Because the attack has left many of our troops dead. Even the army that had been strengthened with the demon seed was unable to survive it."
"Don't worry about such a small thing, by combining all the troops we have, this time we can definitely break the gate of He Bei city fortress" said Sky Khan.
"Our previous attacks have also killed many archers. I believe the attack this time we are able to defeat them." added Khan Sky.

"Of General Xiao Long, the enemy forces are joining."
The report of the troops had made the retainers who were planning the defense, had to stop again. They immediately exited the room to confirm the truth of the report just now.
They need to make sure of that, because that means the plan they just assembled will change by looking at the enemy's attack patterns.
In the room was seen General Yuwen Shiji, General Xiao Long, General Tian Bai, colonel Xian Hua. Several other courtiers led each unit as well as General Zhao of the Shaanxi city guard force.
From the top of the wall they saw a convoy of troops from the Kingdom of Goguryeo heading towards the encamped forces of the Sky Khan. The combined strength of the entire enemy army was more than the ever-diminishing imperial army.
Seeing such a troop convoy made the imperial troops who were watching became a little trepidation.
With the combined attack this time, the general Ulagan and the royal courtier Goguryeo were optimistic to destroy the defense of the imperial army. With great confidence they this time were able to destroy the city gate of He Bei.
The number of troops of the Kingdom of Goguryeo that has been strengthened with the seeds of the devil, in this attack will join forces under the leadership of General Ulagan. With the number of over five hundred troops that had been strengthened with demon seeds, made the confidence of General Deuteronomy rise. He was already very confident of being able to be the key to the success of the attack this time around.
But General Xiao Long had also calculated with cooking. The combination of the two enemy forces that had prepared for battle had been thought of. Some important steps he took quickly.
Almost all the troops were deployed to defend the northern gate. Including all the Black Tiger troops that had possessed sky-level strength.
"Are we able to withstand their attacks this time?" General Yuwen Shiji's gaze led to the approaching enemy troops.
"If we say what it is to our entire army, then we will all die in the fortress of He Bei today. But if they give encouragement by giving hope of victory in the war this time, then everything can happen.
Believe me, if there is something in this world called a miracle. And I'm sure that by tomorrow my chest is still breathing." General Xiao Long patted slowly the shoulder of the younger brother of the imperial warlord Yang Guang.
The man then went around checking the preparations of the returning soldiers who would be ready for battle. After he felt sure that all the preparations had been carried out as planned, he stood on the wall at the northern gate.
"I understand you all in a long fatigue and almost all the troops in this fortress feel the same way. Including the troops from Shaanxi city, they were also not fully able to release all their fatigue after a long journey."
"I'm not asking you to fight for me, but I'm asking you to fight for the whole empire whose safety depends on how strong you fight today!"
General Xiao Long's eyes swept across the entire army that was now in his leadership. This was due to the condition of the warlord General Yuwen Huaji who was getting worse.
The sound of war drums began to be shot indicating that the enemy troops were close enough, the short speech from General Xiao Long had made every imperial army clutch their weapons even tighter and promise to fight with all their might until their lives left the body.
In every corner of the imperial army they remembered were children, brothers, parents that they had to save from the cruelty of the enemy forces. Their thoughts were to take care of the family, making their fighting spirit smoldering.
General Yuwen Shiji who led the archer army divided into two layers. The purpose he made the two layers was for the arrow attacks to continue raining down on the enemy without pause.
The arrival of troops under the command of General Zhou Fang from Shaanxi city brought an archery force of more than eight thousand. Added another five thousand troops. Although the army only has an army of sky power of no more than ten, including General Zhou Fang himself.
In the state of being ready for such a battle, the imperial army had been cheated. For the enemy army has gone before attacking them.
Before the arrows belonging to the imperial troops escaped from his bow, it was from the sky that darted with arrows and needles rained down on them.
Above the air hundreds of sky-level troops had begun their attacks.
"Protect yourself!"
"Part of the Black Tigers protect the troops above the gates!" General Xiao Long shouted while darting upwards.
"Red Moon Sword!"
The red-colored sword slash energy shot out trying to destroy the arrows and needles that were about to rain down on the imperial troops around the northern gate.
Seeing the actions of General Xiao Long who was trying to protect his troops, most of the retainers darted along to accompany their temporary commander.
One of them was General Yuwen Shiji, Colonel Xian Hua. In addition to them is the Black Tiger troops who helped General Xiao Long shot up into the sky to reach the enemy who managed to attack secretly.
While some of the Black Tiger troops moved to protect the archers near the gate,
The battle over the air became the beginning of the outbreak of war again three countries. On the ground the forces of the Sky Khan and Gogureyo directly charged towards the gate.
"I told you my troops would be able to deal with the enemy and lure them!" General Ulagan and his troops stormed towards the Gate in plain clothes like any other soldier. A big smile embellished the face of General Ulagan.
Unbeknownst to the imperial forces, the attack from the air by the black enemy forces was a tactic to lure the powerful imperial forces out of the vicinity of the gate. Minimally reduce the amount of power of the imperial army, so that the gate they can break.
At first the imperial army thought, if an entire army reinforced with demon seeds attacked from above the air. In fact, the strength of the army that had been strengthened with the demon seed had been divided into two.
Precisely the strongest attack carried out by enemy forces is on the ground, not troops that are above the air.
The powers that were on some land had already reached the heaven level. They are the pungawa-pugawa of the two forces who have now decided to join.
Two courtiers from the Gogureyo Kingdom who reached the level of heaven include General Joseong and General Sejong. The two of them were in the front row and jumped on the fortress.
"Our care seems to have tricked the enemy!" General Tian Bai immediately realized the mistake of the actions of the Black Tiger Forces who had dashed against the enemy who attacked from above the air.
For the enemy army made use of the weakening of the army guarding the gate.
They slaughtered the imperial soldiers with ease, as the Black Tigers who were able to take on the enemy troops were above the sky fighting with the enemy forces as well. While the Black Tiger troops who tried to protect the gate were unable to stop the slaughter by the enemy forces.
While the troops were under many who massacred the joint forces, from above the air the Black Tiger troops who had previously darted along with General Xiao Long, the, now it just began to fall down sliding quickly.
They fell in a bloody condition or most of the body had turned blue quickly. They had been successfully eliminated by enemy forces who had previously managed to lure out a portion of the imperial army.
The battle in the air continued, like a battle on land that was no less exciting.
The enemy forces that fought in the air against the retainers and the Black Tiger forces did have one task, fishing and continued to urge the imperial troops, who were forced to face their attacks.
The strength of that army was not arbitrary they were really strong. With their strength a heaven-powered retainer even though they can be balanced. Moreover, they were indeed immune from various ordinary weapons.
