The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire

Chapter 360: A pillar of light reaching the sky

Views:

At a glance, these eighteen pillars of light penetrate the sky, and you can't even see the height. Each one is seven or eight meters wide. They look like the pillars of the sky, very majestic.

After these 18 light pillars appeared, they surrounded the surrounding area for several miles at once, wrapping most of Tomita Yoshinari's tens of thousands of troops in. Only a small number of three to four thousand people on both sides were not covered by the light pillars.

The soldiers below saw the light beam appear and panicked.

It's not like they haven't seen warriors with high cultivation levels fighting. Although it is exaggerated and their strength is like that of gods and demons, they are not as terrifying as the eighteen pillars of light, and they appear so densely.

What frightened these soldiers even more was that after the eighteen pillars of light connected the sky and the earth, they suddenly erupted into dense threads.

These threads are made up of strips of white light. They are extremely thin, about the thickness of a human finger, but they are numerous and extremely long. Tens of thousands of white threads pop out from each beam of light.

Then these threads seemed to have no end, rapidly extending and going around other light pillars.

Other light pillars also stretched out silk threads and entangled themselves with the extended white threads, gradually weaving into a large net.

This big white net is huge, covering an area of seven or eight miles in radius. Moreover, the grid is so densely woven that even the clenched fist cannot fit through the exposed gaps.

Not long after these light pillars appeared, and then the filaments stretched out to weave a large white net, only about ten minutes passed. The speed was so fast that no one could react.

Many soldiers even looked at it in recognition when they saw the light pillar appear, not knowing how to react, as if they were dumbfounded.

Then they watched helplessly as the light pillar stretched out its silk threads and twisted into a large net, completely wrapping them in and sealing off their escape route.

When the big net was completed and there was no more movement, the soldiers came back to their senses, and then there was a loud and loud cry.

The sight of this light pillar appearing was too terrifying. It was like a punishment from heaven. It suddenly appeared in the heaven and earth, and then enveloped them.

"Quiet, please be quiet! Anyone who makes noise and disturbs the morale of the army will be killed without mercy."

Tomita Yoshinari frowned. He was already feeling uneasy because of the sudden ambush. After hearing the noise of the soldiers around him, he became more and more irritable and couldn't help but shouted sharply.

It's a pity that even if he mobilized the internal power in his body, he could spread the voice to the ears of every soldier. But the sudden appearance of the beam of light was so terrifying that many soldiers were distracted and couldn't listen to it at all.

So although a few people settled down after hearing it, most were still in a state of chaos.

Many people were running around like headless flies, seemingly looking for a way out, but this made the originally neat formation even more chaotic.

Many people have even fallen into the mountains because of the pushing, and many people have even been pushed to the ground and trampled to death.

The development of this situation is very bad. If we continue to let it go, it will only make the fear in the hearts of the soldiers more and more intense. In the end, the army will completely collapse from within and become a lamb waiting to be captured.

Something has to be done.

Tomita Yoshinari had this idea in his mind.

I saw a bloody light gathering in his hands, which was extremely rich, and there was even a hint of cold and murderous resentment in it, making people feel a kind of creepy fear when standing around them.

Then with a flick of his hands, the bloody light flew past the guards blocking him, split into several channels, and landed among the most chaotic crowd of soldiers.

As soon as the bloody light landed, it glowed brightly, covering dozens of surrounding soldiers.

In an instant, amidst the screams of these soldiers, each soldier shrouded in blood dried up at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally turned into a withered skeleton, and was actually sucked into a mummy by the blood light. .

This sudden scene immediately calmed down the noisy and noisy soldiers around them, causing them to stop screaming with their big mouths open, and they were speechless. They were all petrified.

They were distracted by the appearance of light beams just now, but after all, the light beams did not do anything to harm them. Although they knew that the appearance of this light beam must have some kind of harm, and it might even be fatal, that's why they screamed and ran around in panic.

But the sudden appearance of bloody light was unexplainable. It took away the lives of dozens of colleagues around them in an extremely terrifying way. This was a more terrifying thing than the appearance of the light beam. How could they not be more afraid.

Immediately afterwards, after killing more than a hundred soldiers who were making trouble because of the bloody light, they calmed down the other soldiers who were panicking.

Another loud voice came into the ears of every soldier. This time everyone listened attentively without making any noise.

"Listen to me, now the army has been surrounded. All soldiers have returned to their respective commanders to accept their deployment and appointments. They are not allowed to disrupt the formation and make no noise. Those who disobey the order will be punished."

This is the voice of their commander, Tomita Yoshinari. Every soldier can hear it clearly, and there will be no omissions or errors.

This was not the first time they heard this sound.

Ever since Tomita Yoshinari accepted the command of their army, they had heard orders conveyed by this voice no less than ten times. I have long been familiar with it, so familiar that I couldn’t be more familiar with it.

Now I suddenly realized that it was the general who had just killed those soldiers. I couldn't help but feel guilty, and I no longer dared to act in a panic.

After all, they have received strict training to become an army. When these soldiers were trained in the military camp, they were clearly informed of the harshness of military law and the consequences of violating military law.

In the past, many colleagues had violated military law with disapproval and were frightened by the sight of punishment. They had already had a deep-rooted fear of military law in their hearts, and they were as afraid as a tiger and dared not violate it.

But now they have released many military laws, which seriously disturbed the morale of the army, which attracted the general to kill the rebel soldiers and shock them.

Now after this shock, many soldiers calmed down and couldn't help but feel a sense of fear and joy, but there was no more disturbance after that.

Perfectly demonstrating the qualities they should have as regular troops who have received rigorous training, each one is tightly united under their commander, lining up to listen to orders.

After Tomita Yoshinari shocked the soldiers, he stopped taking care of them, because he knew that the basis of previous training, coupled with the huge officer corps, was enough to stabilize the morale of these soldiers and improve discipline.

He has more important things to do now.
