"Five!"
"Four!"
"Three!"
Each number, like a death warrant, flew from Ye Zhen's lips. General Wu Chong of the Marquis Haiyuan Kingdom, who had initially remained indifferent, unconsciously swallowed his saliva, sweating on his forehead.
"Two!"
The moment the word 'two' was spoken, Ye Zhen made a gesture. Commander Zheng Dangshi, who had been waiting for the order, became ecstatic and shouted, "Prepare the crossbows!"
Swish, swish, swish!
The sound of crossbows being readied filled the air. The ten thousand troops of North Sea County immediately took up the standard shooting formation for crossbow covering fire.
Seeing Ye Zhen's fierce expression, General Wu Chong of the Marquis Haiyuan Kingdom grew uneasy, "Raise the formation! Quickly, raise the formation!"
Regardless of whether they would really attack, it was better to be prepared just in case.
With a low shout, Wu Chong hurriedly spoke to Ye Zhen, "Commander Ye, I am simply carrying out orders, you see....."
