Chapter 289 How Could His Strength Be So Terrifying

A wave of arrows immediately made the people of the Peacock Kingdom afraid to show their heads.

They feared that if they poked their heads out, they would be shot and killed by Lin Tian's army.

But just because they didn't show their heads didn't mean Lin Tian's army wouldn't attack.

Under Lin Tian's leadership, his cavalry, following him, galloped straight towards the gates of the Peacock Kingdom's capital.

The terrifying speed sent a chill down the spines of many in the Peacock Kingdom.

They felt that Lin Tian's army might be at their city gates the very next moment.

If that happened, their city gates would likely be breached by Lin Tian's army.

And once the gates were broken, a large part of their reliance would be gone.

After all, they had previously believed they could rely on their city walls to resist Lin Tian's army.

Therefore, the soldiers of the Peacock Kingdom were extremely anxious.

"What should we do? What do we do now? They are about to attack the city, we must counterattack!"

"Should we shoot arrows? Should we shoot arrows at them now? If we don't, will they directly break down our city gates?"

"General, we are completely suppressed and cannot raise our heads. Do you have any way to stop them from attacking the city?"

Lin Tian's army attacking the city was terrifying for the soldiers of the Peacock Kingdom.

This was because, at this moment, they had no way to stop Lin Tian's army from attacking.

Even if they wanted their archers to shoot arrows, or to throw rolling logs down from the city walls to stop Lin Tian's army from approaching.

They were completely unable to do so.

The archers of the Qin Kingdom had a longer range. At this distance, the archers of the Peacock Kingdom could not threaten them, while they could accurately hit the soldiers of the Peacock Kingdom.

This was an absolute major threat to the soldiers of the Peacock Kingdom.

Because of this threat, they had completely lost the power to stop Lin Tian's army from approaching.

At this moment, the general of the Peacock Kingdom was also a bit dazed.

He naturally knew how great the crisis would be for the Peacock Kingdom if Lin Tian's army approached.

But, at this moment, he did not dare to show his head, let alone his soldiers.

After hesitating for several breaths, he finally thought of a plan.

Then, he opened his mouth and said:

"Blind fire! Order our soldiers to fire blindly, don't show your heads, just fire blindly and shoot them!"

"Don't be stingy with arrows, shoot all the arrows! As long as there are enough arrows, we can stop them!"

With these words, the soldiers of the Peacock Kingdom immediately felt as if they had found a backbone, knowing what to do.

A large number of arrows were directly hurled out.

They could not see the enemy, nor did they know where the enemy was.

They only knew that their arrows were shot outside the city, and there was a high probability that their arrows could hit people.

However, whether they hit anyone, they themselves did not know, nor did they dare to check.

Because the arrows overhead were too threatening.

However, after the arrows were fired, a sense of security suddenly arose in their hearts.

It was as if they had counterattacked their opponents, and their hearts felt at ease.

However, the reality was completely different from what they had imagined.

Although they hurled their arrows, there were not many soldiers in the areas where their arrows landed.

Many soldiers were following Lin Tian, charging towards their city gates.

No one was attacking from their city walls.

Even if many of their arrows were heading towards the city gates, when their arrows fell, they were easily blocked by the shields of Lin Tian's soldiers.

They did not cause much casualties.

However, their actions had angered the archers under Lin Tian.

The next moment, these archers picked up their bows and arrows and began to shoot.

This type of shooting posed a greater threat to the soldiers of the Peacock Kingdom than direct shooting.

This was because their shooting range was precisely the city walls of the Peacock Kingdom.

Many of their soldiers were hiding behind the city walls. Direct shooting might not pose a threat to them, but with curved shooting, it posed a huge threat to them.

The city walls in front of them had directly lost their protective function.

The fatal arrows fell directly from above their heads.

It had to be said that this was incredibly terrifying.

In an instant, a large number of Peacock Kingdom soldiers died under the curved arrows.

Their screams instantly spread throughout the battlefield.

Not only that, but as Lin Tian's army was shooting, Lin Tian also led his army to the city gates.

Then, in front of everyone, with just one sword, he directly cleaved open the gates of the Peacock Kingdom's capital.

Under Lin Tian's sword, the gates of the Peacock Kingdom's capital were like broken wooden boards, utterly defenseless, broken with a single blow.

Such terrifying destructive power directly stunned the people of the Peacock Kingdom.

"This, is this still human? How can his strength be so terrifying?"

"I heard before that the main general of this army was an avatar of a god, and that he alone broke the leg of an elephant. I thought it was just a rumor, but I didn't expect it to be true!"

"It's over, it's over this time. How can we possibly resist such an enemy!"

Lin Tian's sword breaking their city gates made many of them feel a sense of crisis.

In fact, many of them had already fallen into despair.

They felt that they could not withstand the assault of Lin Tian's army, and Lin Tian alone was already terrifying.

Because of this, many of them lost their confidence after being struck by Lin Tian's blow.

However, whether they had lost their confidence or not, whether they still had the will to resist or not, they had already lost the opportunity to resist.

Once Lin Tian's army charged in, their fate was essentially sealed.

"Kill them, capture the capital of the Peacock Kingdom, and capture the King of the Peacock Kingdom alive!"

"Kill! Capture the King of the Peacock Kingdom alive!"

Upon hearing that the King of the Peacock Kingdom was to be captured alive, everyone became very excited.

Then, without any hesitation, they followed Lin Tian and charged into the capital of the Peacock Kingdom.

And with the capital of the Peacock Kingdom breached, their soldiers truly had no ability to resist.

Without their elephant cavalry, they were utterly defenseless against Lin Tian's cavalry.

The powerful cavalry was enough to drive them all to despair.
