Chapter 315 - 181: Attack Tianlang Pass!
How could this be? How is this possible?!
Suo Lun’s fifteen-thousand-strong army was all below Tianlang Pass; how many men could he have had for a surprise attack from the sea on the Tianshui City Territory? At most a thousand men — that would be quite something, and the combined defense forces of Chaos Stone Island didn’t even number three thousand.
Even if he had spent a fortune in Gold Coin to hire more than ten thousand good-for-nothings and riffraff, they would still be a disorganized mob.
Moreover, a previous carrion bird message made it crystal clear that Suo Hanyi, with just one shout, had sent these thousands of riffraff scurrying in terror, then he led two thousand cavalry to slaughter them, leaving corpses strewn across the fields.
Then, Suo Hanyi led two thousand cavalry in pursuit of Suo Lun. As for Suo Lun, who was fleeing, he had only a little over a hundred Samurai by his side.
Even with one’s eyes closed, even if figured out with one’s toes, Suo Hanyi was sure to win. Suo Lun was bound to die or be captured — there was no second outcome.
Indeed, the next day’s carrion bird message flew in, stating clearly that Suo Hanyi had returned in great victory, Suo Lun had been captured alive and would be brought to Tianlang Pass shortly. (This carrion bird message had been sent under duress, for Zhi Ning’s entire secret base had been captured.)
Thus, no one paid any attention to Tianshui City and Suo Lun anymore; all their focus was on Yan Yan’s Army beneath Tianlang Pass.
How could the situation have changed so abruptly, becoming Suo Hanyi’s death in battle, with Suo Lun seizing control of Heavenly Water Main City.
Furthermore, Suo Lun was leading several thousand troops southward, intending to attack Tianlang Pass from behind.
How could this have happened?
