Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely Chapter 1496 - 471: Frostfire Spreads, Success and Revenge, Tragedy at the River Mouth, and Another Expert?

With Frost Resilience, burn the Chu Territory;

Resist excessive taxes, restore our clothing and food;

Shatter the household registration, no distinction between rich and poor.

These three slogans, although taboo in Chen Cang, are not unknown to many; ordinary individuals in the Earth-digging Realm have heard of them, not to mention Zhang Long and other officials of the Subordinate Bureau.

Thus, at the moment when thousands shouted the slogans in unison, everyone instantly understood, especially upon seeing over a thousand people wielding sharp blades charging out of the Su Field, roaring towards Zhang Long and others. Six words immediately sprang to their minds:

"The Frost Ash Association is rebelling!"

With this thought, the reactions of everyone except the association members participating in the rebellion generally fell into two categories.

The first group had nothing to do with the rebellion; they showed slight fear on their faces and began retreating immediately; the second group, comprised of Zhang Long and other Subordinate Bureau members, turned dreadfully pale, their faces full of fear and terror.

If it were only the thousand people charging out of the Su Field, it wouldn’t be too significant.

The key was the three to four thousand individuals in the Earth-digging Realm surrounding them, who also began roaring angrily — this was the main reason for their panic.

Swish... Swish... Swish.......

Dozens of iron arrows suddenly shot out from the direction of the Su Field, hitting several officials of the Subordinate Bureau who weren’t wearing iron armor; the iron arrows were forceful, nearly all piercing through the neck, killing instantly.

"Strong Bow, where did they get Strong Bows?"

"Not just Strong Bows, Thousand Forged Iron Armor, and the weapons in their hands—can’t you see?"

"Their physical condition isn’t right either, how did they recover?"

.........

"Everyone shut up!"

Zhang Long, being a leader, forcefully interrupted the crowd with an angry roar, then loudly ordered: "They might be prepared, but so what? There are at most four thousand people, less than a thousand capable of fighting; the rest are all mobs, ultimately an insignificant rebellious party, incapable of forming a significant threat. Follow this Manager to kill the enemy!"

After finishing the last sentence, Zhang Long’s face turned slightly pale, but he still forcibly drew the long saber from his waist, slicing through the iron arrows aimed at his face. He then turned to the surrounding Earth-digging Realm individuals, his eyes flashing slightly, and sternly shouted: "Tonight, whosoever fights alongside me to quell the rebel army..."

"Cursed official, die!"

Zhang Long’s words were naturally interrupted by angry shouts; as the angry shouts echoed, several flashes of blades directly aimed at his face.

Whoosh......

It turned out that Liu Zhang, who had just escaped, had come back to attack.

Not only him, but also two burly men dressed in black, wearing red-faced and tusked evil demon masks, wielding silver big sabers.

"Protect the Manager!"

Zhang Long’s chest had already been viciously stabbed, so he began retreating as soon as he saw Liu Zhang alone.

Fortunately, Zhang Hu reacted quickly at the back, gave an order, and the remaining seven Vice Managers, along with over a hundred County Guard Army soldiers and the hundred Cold Resistance Level individuals from the Subordinate Bureau, swiftly drew bows and aimed arrows at the three attackers.

"Brothers, the Subordinate Bureau won’t let us live, what are you hesitating for, rebel with the Frost Ash Association, we outnumber them, fighting is the only way to survive!"

"That’s right, going into the Su Field would be death anyway, might as well fight!"

"The Frost Ash Association has so many people, don’t be afraid, charge!"

.........

"Tonight, whoever fights alongside me to quell the Frost Ash Association’s rebel army, this Manager will report your merits to the County City, removing slave status, and..."

The Subordinate Bureau’s Cold Resistance Level had nearly three hundred people; besides these, there were over a thousand loyalists at the Earth-digging Realm Limit; thus, Zhang Long didn’t immediately fall into a deadlock, managing to retreat to the rear.

After retreating to a safe position, Zhang Long quickly spoke to finish the speech he hadn’t completed, ignoring his physical injuries, forcibly gathering some vital energy in his throat, trying to spread his voice throughout the scene.

But alas, the rage of the surrounding ten thousand Earth-digging Realm individuals had already been completely ignited by the Frost Ash Association.

Those ten thousand-plus Earth-digging Realm individuals were forced over by the Subordinate Bureau tonight; upon realizing the Frost Ash Association’s rebellion, their first reaction was to retreat, but as the core members of the Frost Ash Association charged out of the Rice Fields, coupled with the noise of over three thousand Earth-digging Realm association members on the periphery, the momentum suddenly swelled and their mindset began to subtly change.

Additionally, the Frost Ash Association members deliberately shouted loudly, instantly exploding their emotions and suddenly swelling their courage.

"That’s right, brothers, death is certain, fight bravely!"

"Rebel along with the Frost Ash Association members."

"If we don’t rebel, we’ll have to enter the Su Field, what are we afraid of?"

"Surround these cursed officials and kill them."

.........

Evil leads to courage, the emotions of the remaining ten thousand-plus Earth-digging Realm individuals completely erupted; although they had no weapons, they held the iron scythes provided by the Subordinate Bureau for harvesting rice. Amidst countless angry shouts, everyone raised their iron scythes, instantly surrounding Zhang Long and the thousand-plus Subordinate Bureau members.

The hundred County Guard Army soldiers originally drew bows and aimed arrows, targeting the rebel army charging from the west side of the Su Field. But surrounded by over ten thousand Earth-digging Realm individuals, they immediately turned their arrows towards the closest people.

"No!"

Seeing this scene, Zhang Long was instantly furious, quickly shouting to stop.

Swish......

Unfortunately, his voice was still a step too late.

A soldier, clearly nervous, released the bowstring directly.

Thud...

The County Guard Army was equipped with Strong Bows that surpass one lever in pull, and their destructive power against ordinary Earth-digging Realm individuals without armor was evident.

With the Earth-digging Realm individuals packed too densely, an arrow shot pierced through at least three people’s bodies, knocking down more than a dozen with its impact.
