Chapter 79 - Draconis Arrives

as Ryjin was marching at the head of his Army He was thinking with 13 million he could Take a enemy army on his own as-long as the Number is not to Great but he belive's all the damn state's will have sent anywhere between 30 million to maybe even over 60 or 70 million Each that's a Huge host and big number even for him if he is going to do damage he needs to Catch the enemy off guard and Have a FULL charge Hit the enemy Flank with Full force I could Bring out deathwing But i don't want to relie on him to much cause that would cause my army to slack off and become Fat and Board Ryjin knows his march should make his entrance on the right flank of Qin and Left flank of the Coalition that should put me at Zhou's left flank Ribuko would be a Interesting Fight But Kishi Is commanding the zhou force's while Ribuko is over seeing the coalition HQ along with the CHU Guy shunhin I believe his name is.

the march went on for about 6 days they Arrived on the Qin's Far right Flank and he was Right he arrived on Zhou's Left flank His army was still Not detected as they where in heated battle Ryjin had his army slowly set up in formation and The Glaive troops where with Achilles in the Center of the Front line formation as the 5 million Heavy armour'd Men at arm's where Split in 2 with 2.5 million on each side of the Glaive's as the Line was a 5 Line'd wall so the Line was long and a charge like this would do good damage the Pike's where behind the main line as the Heavy Armour'd English longbows Got on the High ground with Eve there Rage was Superb so could easily Reach the Zhou Middle and back Lines from here Not to mention it seems they had the Breeze on there side.

Ryjin had his Cav go to his Right flank as he was going to Try and Circle round the Zhou so he could hit them from behind this would make it a 3 sided attack quin would be taking the Zhou front Ryjin would take there left and back A good and True A.s.s Ravaging for Zhou If it all goes to plan But ryjin knows nothing ever goes as planned so he believed Kishi would most likely Feel something was wrong and would probably respond accordingly.

Ryjin sent a Lone rider to Qin's right general Duke Hyou telling him of his arrival and his Plan for the Charge the Duke is a man who loves to Charge in and deal with everything then and there so he should understand.The Next day Ryjin was with His cav and had made it to the Back of Zhou However he had to go Further back than he hoped Due to Zhou troops where far back fro some reason But his Idea had been set and Achilles Glen Eve and Odysseus are all ready Duke Hyou has already launched his attack on the zhou lines just like the previous days to not let zhou know something is different today the only problem Ryjin had to be wary of was Houken The so called Strongest man in zhou's army the 1 who refers to himself as the Bushin.

Ryjin Had the signal sent to sound the Horn from Behind where his cav was As the Horn of The horn-berg was sounding His cav Charged with all there Might towards the Zhou back Lines.

during the fight The zhou commander Kishi felt something Was really wrong he fel as if his back was open and exposed Yet he could not Figure it out He had sent a message to Ribuko about his feeling and Ribuko had personally come back to the Zhou HQ to talk and see if Kishi's feeling was right and Ribuko said with Certainty Kishi was right Something was off even he could feel it But they did not know what and that day Ribuko was in the Zhou HQ Duke Hyou was fighting the Zhou lines Like he has for days Prier However Ribuko Caught something Duke Hyou was not pushing with His usual Zeal he was holding back for something Ribuko Turned and as he did a Huge HORN sound had gone off behind them and a Rumbling could be felt Under foot Ribuko order'd all Force'sat the back Prepare for a cavalry charge from the rear.

As Ryjin and His cav came in to View The enemy zhou number showed itself and Ryjin was right Zhou alone had brought up to around 60 million troops That means Chu should of brought up to around 120 million to 150 million Han and Wei also probably brought 50 to 60 million and Yank around the same the sheer size was Intense But none the less Ryjin charged with all Force and Power behind him and his Cavalry And he wanted to Use a Skill he bought from the System a Skill made for cavalry charge's hehe.

as the Horn sounded Ribuko had managed to have the rear line set up in defence for the charge he was sure his Defence would not break and the unknown Cavalry would be Stopped and Slaughter Yet the amount of cavalry astonished him and even Kishi as the Cav drew Near a second Horn had gone off to there left As they saw a Huge Long Line charge there Left flank which was Now open do to the rear and front bracing the flank's where like a Surgeon's Knife a clean cut was all you would get Ribuko Ordered men from the front To reinforce the left flank However he was late The horn only went off when the enemy was Literally Fully charging and about 500 feet of so from there Left flank No way where they reforming there ranks to defend against this surprise force.

Ribuko and Kishi both agreed that the left flanks Currently engaged men shall hold the enemy while tho's behind reform in to defensive Lines to Push the enemy out of the Left flank which had now Caved in yet his plan's where Shatter'd due to Duke Hyou as his Charge at the front was more Fierce then any other days as he had Gotten threw the front defence lines and had breached the second He was nearing the Zhou HQ with Rapid Speed along side Duke Hyou was a young land ribuko knew SHIN who was leading his own Cavalry what surprised Ribuko was Shin's cavalry was the same as this surprise attack cavalry whats more he knew of this cavalry's Fighting power due to Shin had achieved many Victories in defending Sanyou and such this lad had Grown fast and He M.a.t.u.r.ed Extremely Fast He Wholeheartedly Belived Shin was the Biggest danger out of all the state's Shin's sheer growth was ungodly Beside him was the female Warrior who appeared out of no where and was beside shin all the time her fighting ability was Intense and Fierce he also Belived she was Hiding her real power as she never seem'd to get serious as if to say no one was her Opponent.

Duke Hyou and Shin where Beelineing it for Zhou's main defence line that guarded the HQ Kishi took the initiative to Move the HQ and they moved it to the Zhou right flank that was still fully intact Ragnar was beside his farther in the cav charge as they near'd the Zhou lines Ragnar's Blood had reached boiling Point as he shouted and was eager for the fight it was at this moment Ryjin rode out faster to be at the Spear heads tip and Raised his Glaive and Shouted -KINGS CHARGE- as all the cavalry behind him slowly Glowed golden The Zhou saw this and where sceptical Yet as the Cave Hit the back Defence Line Ribuko and Kishi saw something they will never forget That cav had Decimated the 3 defence lines as if they where air THAT'S Impossible shouted Ribuko.

-Kings charge makes any cavalry Charging along said the King invulnerable for 10 seconds-

with this Ribuko Knew the zhou Force had to Retreat to the Right flank and fast But due to Ribuko and Kishi getting away when Night fell Both Ryjin and Duke Hyou had there armies Return to camp this had annoyed Ryjin but he understood due to Kishi and ribuko getting away this side's battlefield was far from over Plus Ryjin wanted to save his cavalry's Strength for a clash with Chu.

During this engagement Houken had never shown himself witch was strange to Ryjin He knows Houken is here But where Then Ryjin had a sleep and as they slept all was still neither sides did anything the next morning Ryjin was Now with his army that was beside Duke Hyou's army as he had now made his army's presence Known It was impossible to catch Zhou off-guard again Ryjin can say that the charge yesterday was atleast down to LUCK and only Luck Ryjin had council with his commanders and had now Known yesterday the Zhou lost well over 15 million troops Bordering on 20 million That was a Big hit but that was as he said due to Luck that the surprise charge worked if it did not the losses would of not been so great.

Ryjin was leading 500k Heavy cav as Ragnar was leading the other half ragnar had gone to see his sister and Meet shin and was happy his sister was happy Ragnar actually Missed Lola and wanted her here with him -He sigh's- But as the armies where Now formed up Duke Hyou was the Charge head first Type of Guy to Ryjin had Odysseus Be the Strategist of the entire Combined Draconis and Qin right army Duke Hyou had agreed after talking with Ryjin and Now shin had also introduced Karyo Ten to Odysseus at which Shin and Odysseus Just bear hugged each other in a friendly manner he also gave his respect to Ava as he greeted her and when Karyo met him she was On the back fence was this guy really the 1 who Helped Shin so much and thought so much.

she talked to the Man and to her surprise Shin was telling the Truth this man was a bonafide Genius and a Tactical master even more so than her own teacher the best strategist in Qin she was beside Odysseus the entire Time Learning and absorbing all his knowledge Like a sponge with the battle today coming to a start Ryjin had already Talked to Duke Hyou about him and his 500k Cav heading to the Battlefield on the right he wanted a shot as Kanmai the Chu Supreme commander the so called strongest man Duke Hyou agree'd cause it would be funny to see Zhou's response Plus Ryjin had left Ragnar here and his entire Infantry force and with The duke's Extreme Predator style Sense's and Odysseus Mind and Achilles and glen and eve this Battle field was Firmly in Qin's hands The duke raged in the battle field with shin and now ragnar and Ava with his own cavalry But it was Ryjin's Cavalry that was the Heavy hitters and Duke Hyou saw how strong there where he was Impressed and that was not easy to do with this battle harden'd man as a smirk Cropped up on his face.

Ryjin had taken 500k Cav with him and gone towards the left battle field to the chu area to see he had gone in the Mountain's behind the Qin to watch as he remembers Karin sends a detachment to sneak behind Qin and head to the back of Kankoku pass He had 50k troops Split in 10 Groups of 5k along all the Mountain lines to keep watch as he had 450k cav Line up Behind Tou's Army Ryjin had split His cave in to 2 group's each of 225k and both In wedge Formation 1 aiming for Tou's left and the other The right of Tou this charge would Clean both side's and give Tou a breather But ryjin was waiting He was waiting for that Big bitch to make her move.

as the Chu army was engaged in battle Karin had sent the remnants of the First army to fight as her second army had set up a Huge scene just to Try and trick Tou so Karin and her army could surround Tou's army and Single them out and bombard them with constant waves of enemy's.

Ryjin saw this From his High vantage point and saw all her moves He decided F.u.c.k Kanmai I am guna Play with this Bitch Lets see if she can Take a punch to the face HAHAHA He ordered his men to get ready as Tou's army had come under constant bombardment of consecutive enemy Troops hitting his defence formation Ryjin knew If he was Guna Catch that big Girl off guard Now was the Time as He shouted to charge at the Chu's Shock around 400k Cavalry had emerged from behind the Qin force's Charging madly towards the Now defenceless Chu who where attacking Tou's defence formation on the left and right as Karin Saw this cav come from behind Qin saw was mad as hell Chocking Bamyu her second in-command as she shouted -Where the f.u.c.k did they come from and what state's flag is that BAMYU tell me now- as she saw her Plan to bombard Tou fail she was about to order Her force's to pull back But at that moment Ryjins second Plan burst in to Fruition as His 225k Cav on each side further Split in to 25k groups and Started secondary charges on Retreating Chu units Tou seeing this Had ordered all cavalry to charge out and head to Retreating enemy units and Kill all.

Karin was mad as f.u.c.k right now She had even Don'd her armour and had taken to the Field herself heading Right for Ryjin as she wanted to Skin that bastard alive for ruining her Grand plan and messing all this up Ryjin saw her heading his way As he redirected his group and charged Head long at her Unit which was around 800k strong But Ryjin show'd NO FEAR aas he shouted KINGS CHARGE Right before impact of there troops and his Troops Plow'ed Right threw Karin's Elite Guard and this Shock'd her she knew her men's strength yet this cav had just decimated a Huge chunk of her Elite unit Something No one had ever done before But her thought was cut short as She saw a Glaive Swing for her Head as she Gritted her teeth and Shout bastard and swung a Glaive of her own at Ryjin's as both weapons Meet a deafening Screech and ear piercing Noise Spread threw the battle field as Ryjin was stronger than Karin she was now Showing some Fear No one had ever bested her in strength and this Man just did that Ryjin swung again letting His Blood Rage and his Instincts take over as his fighting style Became Primal and Terrifying Karin was getting more and more angry herself as she and ryjin where battering each other with swings Butt's punch's kick's headbutts You name it they threw it.

Tou saw Ryjin battling Karin and he took his chance to Deal with her army as Ryjin's cavalry had reformed from the 400k 350k had reformed alive and had Gone to Tou as under Ryjins order and had told Tou Ryjin said to use Them as he see's fit While he battles Karin This in itself had Given Tou a good boost to his slowly Waining battle power as he saw just how deadly these cav where so Tou took command of them and Headed in to battle Followed by the other 2 Cavalry units from his army as they lashed out in 3 directions Ouhon had also Joined in with Tou and so had Mouten as they saw this new cavalry and where Impressed with its might in battle Tou's battle ground had now gone from Forgone conclusion to Now even between Qin and Chu chu second army had around 60 million troops But due to the cave of Ryjin pulling that initial charge from the mountains he had taken a few million out and now Chu was losing many more due to the Cavalry attacks of Tou and his 2 Cavalry commanders Not to mention Ouhon and Mouten who had also lashed out on the attack with there Units.

As these battles went on Karin had fully lost herself in this battle with Ryjin and so had Ryjin Both where fighting madly and It was as if 2 monsters where fighting Ryjin had overwhelming Strength Yet karin made up for her loss of strength with Speed and Battle experience Tou had now Beaten a good portion of Karin's army Yet the army that remain had all fallen back and regrouped from the 60 odd Million around 41 or so million had regrouped This was Good Tou had taken the enemy's Numbers down Greatly the Chu First army was all but Wiped out so Chu had gone from around 150 million down to around 101 million That was an insane Hit Chu had taken the First army made of 30 million had been wiped and all remaining commanders had been transfer'd to Second army Karin command yet Karin had also lost a chunk of her army dropping Chu's force's down Greatly Kanmai was enraged once he found out about this Yet he was also Horrified that someone had Be able to beat down Karin with sheer Strength alone as Night came all force's again Returned to camp But Ryjin and Karin Refused to Stop and there battle kept going Until there own Men had to Drag them back to camp.

Karin was covered in wounds Ryjin also had a few it was a Great Fight he said before falling asleep Tou was amazed at this Young man Ryjin's men had also gone to sleep Kanmai had meet with Karin to get information on who this Unknown was that could battle her to such a state and also to tell her the now batter'd number of the remaining Chu force's Karin Raged even more once she heard her army's losses to that bastard she kept Cursing and swearing all night till she passed out from fatigue all armies where now shocked a unknown Force had appeared to aid Qin Ribuko had sent messengers to all Coalition generals with information of the New force its where about's and what info they have on them right now It was little but still something is better than nothing as they all seem'd to agree on that statement silently.

The next day Ryjin woke up His muscles a bit sore This was a feeling he had missed Training pain HAHAH He sent For a rider to head to Ragnar to tell him to Bring all the cav from that battle field to here leave all other forces's there to Deal with Zhou The rider took of as Ryjin then gathered his cave out of the 500k only around 280k was left he wanted his cav with him he also knew his son would never allow his farther to have such a great fight alone So he figured Karin would be a good Battle for his son Ragnar haha Tou had come to Greet Ryjin and also Thank him for his Assistance Ryjin shook Tou's Hand and said it was a p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e and that he has called for more cav to come and that he shall sort his men once they arrive Tou again said thanks as he offer'd Ryjin a seat in the command tent to discuss plans to deal with Karin as Moubu will deal with Kanmai.

after about 2 hours Ryjin was stood in front of His cav Tou was beside him Ryjin had asked for tou to come with him which baffled tou as to Why Ryjin then Reorganised his troops His cav numbers where around 650k due to some losses on Duke Hyou's battlefield So Ryjin took 250k for him self and Ragnar and ordered 400k to follow Tou's command This Made tou blink in astonishment and For once He actually Pulled of an Ouki Style Laugh for the First actual time Due to his astonishment Tou thank'd Ryjin and they went to there respective area's as Ryjin and Ragnar where Together so all 250k was with the 2 Ryjin had told his son about the Women and Ragnar had excitement all over his face as the Battle drew Near The chu had there Force's in formation Unlike the other day when it was spread out trying to Hammer Tou Guess Karin was told to not do that again Huh.

The battle Kick'd off with Moubu ordering his left flank to charge first Tou was also having his force's engage with Karin's she was now Being cautious after the other days Surprise she then saw Ryjin at the head of 250k of his cav hitting her right flank She grew more and more angry at seeing that bastard How ever she remained still tou had also attacked Her lines with the cav his infantry was locked in Melee with her's yet it was the cav that kept the chu from ever getting an advantage and as she saw Ryjin again attacking so brazenly she was infuriated YET it was what a young man did next that Made her Snap this young man Stood on the back of his horse and Bared his a.s.s towards her and was shouting how he would make her face his new Seat and he wanted to show her how clean his a.s.s was This was ragnar If anything he knew how to Rile people up Ryjin was Laughing and said You know Wallace would be proud of u for that 1 hahahaha.

Karin had finally snapped and Mounted her Horse and had her guards Charge with her as she rushed to kill that Little shit Tou had seen this and knew Ryjin had Gathered her attention However unlike the other day Karin's Commanders where all stationed to keep the formation in line Tou had his work to do which was to kill them commanders to Remove the command structure that remains while Karin is away Tou was secretly Sad his master never got to meet such a Young man he belived Ouki would of liked Ryjin.

Ragnar had now seen the Giant of a women barrelling his way as he laugh'd loud so all heard as he shouted -DAMN BITCH YOU MIGHT AS WELL RUN AS THE HORSE AS YA DAMN LEGS ALREADY ON GROUND WHILE RIDEING HAHAHAHA- This further provoked Karin Ryjin now was wondering just who tought Ragnar to be so good at provoking enemy's ??? Karin had finally reached Ragnar and was now Swinging her Huge sword as Ragnar just Swung his halberd and Blocked her as he smirked Is that all really and here i thought you might also have a giants Strength Yet you are just so so -Ragnar could see the vain's on her face bulge and her eyes going red He really had provoked this women as he laughed in his mind- well come on i play with you Little girl Karin barraged him with swings and all fighting there where no holding back Ragnar Bashed her away 5 or 6 times with stunned all her guards as every time he bashed her away he would again provoke here the fight twas going Full swing Ryjin took this time to slaughter Karins guards and the surrounding Chu troops who now came to fear ryjin and his cavalry.

as the day passed from the morning around 6 hours passed so it was around 3 in afternoon now as the battle's on all fields where full swing Karin was In bad shape as Ragnar had Literally Batter'd her senseless Her own remaining men had to Drag her away before she got killed by ragnar who was happy for such a great battle he was covered in wounds But he cared not as he was smiling ear to ear and he then joined his farther attacking the chu again The battle on Moubu's side had gone just as the manga Moubu won the fight against Kanmai and the chu main force had taken a brutal battering from moubu's Force's Dropping them from a further 101 million down to 50 million the lands where Littered with bodies At which Ryjin ordered all force's to gather the dead and Burn them to stop Plague and sickness The chu force's The strongest in the coalition had taken such a battering it was Impossible for them to recover With this Ryjin could have his men focus on Zhou or even go to the han and wei battle field Karin had been promoted Even tho her losses had stacked up during this campaign Shunshin had taken the command of the Chu and ordered them to be in a Defensive formation to keep the qin here Yet that did not work at all as Qin just Ignored the now Beaten Chu.

This further Demoralised the chu as all of them became Disheartened and Shunshin knew the chu where Literally Done now they could no longer fight in this coalition So he told Ribuko that the chu force's where Retreating of course Ribuko was shocked at this statement and tried to argue against it yet after hearing the details of the Hammering Chu took Ribuko knew Chu could no longer fight and retreat was there best Choice but that did not mean Ribuko liked it if chu left this coalition would effectively Die Ribuko Gave quick orders for the Zhou army to move from the far right of Qin to the Han and Wei area and to set up defence there to engage the Duke Hyou and Moubu army's This had turned from the Coalition being the invaders to the Qin now being the aggressor's.

The zhou where Disappoint'd in the chu with Chu claiming to be the strongest state and to be undefeatable yet they took such an embarrassing defeat and then Slunk off after All the other state's saw chu and all thought the same What a bunch of Little shit's the rest of the coalition had now come to a decision to meet the Qin force's in head on battle It would seem Wei and Han shall remain besieging Kankoku pass Yan shall keep Ousen at bay where as Zhou and the Qi army who should arrive soon shall deal with Duke Hyou and moubu and Ryjin however as Ryjin knows nothing ever goes as planned as Later that day Ribuko and the rest had found out Qi had turned round to go home and had even Invaded Chu This cought them all by the tail QI was betraying the coalition This was a bad state as now Zhou had to deal with 3 armies it was impossible.

Ribuko was talking with the other Leaders and they Decided Taking Qin down now was Impossible due to Chu's Running away and Qi's sudden attack on chu so they all decided To return to there home state's Effectively DEFEATED AS THE as the Qin saw the coalition army's leaving they Cheer'd Hard and loud Moubu however and Duke Hyou had gathered all the cavalry they could and had Lashed out to attack the back's of the retreating armies in revenge Ryjin had also given 300k cavalry Each to Moubu and Duke Hyou allowing them to do this retaliation attack with a bit more ease The retreating armies where Hit by Moubu and Duke Hyou ragner was also present so was shin and ava the retreating armies took losses but none more so that Zhou they had lost more than 65% of there Total force in retaliation.

with this Great defence over and Qin still standing Strong all commanders and generals where summoned to Kanyou for the Victory celebration and for the awarding ceremony Ryjin was also invited as a guest of Honour Ragnar was with his farther and such This awarding ceremony should be interesting Ryjin believes this should Make shin a General atleast.

All the other state's where now trying to recover from this Debacle and they had sent envoys to Qin asking for peace and such Qin accepted all Except Zhou's Everyone Knew Zhou had Truly Provoked Qin they even broke an alliance to start this war on Qin so Qin had no feeling at all for zhou at the victory celebration all the commanders where there as Ryjin was sat beside Sai drinking talking and laughing Tales of the battles that happened the dual's the Whole thing was told as many of the Court where astonished Sai had thanked Ryjin and the Draconis empire for there Timely aid Ryjin just shrugged it off and stated they where friends Of course he would help after the celebration lasted a few days the Award ceremony was held in which all commanders had there Nobility raised by 3 and gained wealth and treasure and some lands.

Moubu had been granted like the rest but had also been Granted the title of a Great 6

Tou was also Granted the same Honour and also given the lands that used to be Ouki's

many where rewarded then Shin's name was called and everyone looked at the young man with interest shin was awarded Wealth treasure equal to around 40k he was also given the lands of Sanyou This surprised alot and many in the court -all from ryofui's Side- Protested that a ex slave cant be a lord But they where shut down by Sai as sai then said that Shin is hear by promoted to Rank of General for his deed's Of killing 3 enemy Generals in this battle he killed 1 in zhou and 2 of Han 1 being Seki the hand supreme commander All in the hall shut up after that as Shin approached his best friend Sai and went threw the award and all Shin was Literally Buzzing with joy Ryjin was happy for the Guy and he said that he would help Shin build up a good City in sanyou and also forts along the border's To help him This got all attention and ryjin added something else that even shocked Shin.

You can consider this my wedding gift to you Shin seeing as you are marrying my daughter This had effectively cough all off guard shin the most he actually did not know Ava was Ryjins daughter he knew she was noble but not Ryjins daughter Ryjin also said that Kyokai should be shin's second Wife Shin and all present Got the meaning and it was -you marry anyone before my little Girl i skin you understood- Shin nodded his head faster then damn wood pecker as Ryjin smiled and Congratulated his daughter and Said he shall take his leave for rest as the Qin people celebrated for around 8 days more Ryjin was thinking what would happen next and was Hope-full and he wanted to see rose and also Yotanwa
