Conquering Myriad Worlds from the Mythical Three Kingdoms

Faced with Jiang Wei's impenetrable formation, the Mongol generals charged into it without hesitation.

Often, you only know whether something is feasible or not after actually experiencing it.

Therefore, the role of officers and colonels is extremely important.

A thousand soldiers are easy to find, but a good general is hard to come by.

The Mongol cavalry charged forward despite their difficulties. The key to defeating infantry with cavalry was to disrupt their formation.

If this cannot be done, the cavalry can only harass the infantry formation by circling around it.

However, Ma Chao and Pang De were watching closely. Against pure infantry, cavalry could take full advantage, but against mixed infantry and cavalry forces, pure cavalry would be at a disadvantage.

Jiang Wei calmly commanded the troops, whose front ranks were all spearmen and shieldmen, arranged in a neat formation, concentrating on facing the Mongol cavalry charge.

The Mongol cavalry formed a wedge formation, their momentum growing stronger and stronger, and they pressed down on the vanguard with an imposing aura.

The two types of clouds have already collided.

"Suppress with a rain of arrows!"

At the command of the Mongol cavalry commander, the second and third echelons of cavalry picked up the powerful bows slung over their horses and began to use arrows to cover the charge of the first echelon.

This is also their most common tactic: light cavalry harassing and heavy cavalry breaking through enemy lines.

No orders are needed; it's something ingrained in their bones through training.

On Jiang Wei's side, similarly, there was no need for Jiang Wei to give the order; the lower-ranking generals naturally gave the order the moment the cavalry charged into the range of the arrow rain.

Both sides' junior officers were extremely outstanding, and under the general direction set by the marshal, they carried out their tasks to the best of their ability.

"Suppress with a rain of arrows!"

A barrage of arrows, under the command of the lower-ranking officers, rained down on the charging Mongol cavalry.

However, when faced with a rain of arrows, the heavily armored Mongol cavalrymen did not dodge or evade at all. They simply lowered their heads and took the hit head-on. Their spears were impenetrable, and they deflected all the arrows. Even if some escaped, it was difficult for them to penetrate their armor. In fact, as long as it was not a vital spot, the soldiers were almost never seriously injured.

Thus, the two sides roared and clashed, and as arrows rained down, the front ranks of both sides fell like mowing grass.

"Upward-throwing gun."

Faced with the casualties of the explosion on both sides, Jiang Wei, who was commanding the entire army, did not even blink and calmly ordered the archers to abandon their bows and use javelins instead.

Following Jiang Wei's command, a group of war puppets abandoned their bows and arrows, and all picked up the three-foot-long javelins on their backs, ruthlessly hurling them towards the cavalry in front.

Compared to arrows, which are not very easy to pierce armor, javelins thrown with great force can easily penetrate the armor of Mongol cavalry.

However, by this time the two sides had closed to face-to-face, and the damage caused by the Mongolian side's ranged attacks was increasing rapidly.

One after another, javelins flew from the hands of the Mongol cavalrymen, causing heavy casualties in conjunction with their charge.

Jiang Wei remained unfazed; despite the overwhelming floodwaters, they were completely at a disadvantage.

This unwavering attitude in the face of losses and failures impressed Xu Shu, who thought, "He truly deserves to be called a leader of the new generation; his composure far surpasses that of ordinary people."

Of course, Jiang Wei's composure stemmed more from his confidence in his own talent.

The super-heavy infantry talent, inherited and replicated by Jiang Wei, grants all soldiers a second life, greatly increasing their margin for error.

The spearmen and shieldmen of the first line of defense, who had collapsed from the fierce charge, got up from the ground, dropped their spears, raised their swords and shields, and began to join the second line of defense behind them in attacking the slowed Mongol cavalry.

The pincer attack tactic almost allowed Xinghan to completely overwhelm the Mongol cavalry. However, the Mongol cavalry immediately abandoned their warhorses, switched from infantry to cavalry, dismounted, and began fighting as a group.

"kill!"

The Mongol soldiers formed small, coordinated formations in twos and threes, and with their well-trained skills, they worked together with their comrades to fiercely tear apart the defensive lines set up by Jiang Wei.

Even if the Mongol cavalry, which followed the path of omnipotence, lost their mounts and lost their mobility, their all-around combat power remained unchanged.

"These guys are quite troublesome!" Jiang Wei said, frowning.

"Most of our soldiers are puppets and terracotta warriors. Although they are all considered dual-talented soldiers, they are still somewhat lacking."

"Send the assault team over, they look like they're about to escape!"

Xu Shu also shook his head. There is a reason why cavalry is the king of the battlefield because of its control over mobility.

If you can't win a fight, running away is quite convenient.

Jiang Wei gave a signal to the pre-prepared assault team, and then the assault team, along with the elite troops of Jiang Wei's main force, charged forward.

Lin You took the lead. As the only expert in the assault team to break through the barrier, he wielded his long sword and used the move "Night Battle in All Directions" to slaughter all the surrounding Mongol soldiers.

He directly led ten cultivators with internal energy leaving their bodies, along with hundreds of cultivators with internal energy reaching the peak, in small teams, tearing open several gaps in the Mongol Yuan's defenses.

"It's still hard to imagine that the path of martial arts has developed into this!"

Jiang Wei looked at the gaps torn open by the assault team and naturally filled them with puppets, using these gaps as bait to try to break through the Mongol cavalry's formation.

“Now that Luoyang is filled with hundreds of powerful warriors, it’s not a problem for us, as the vanguard, to be equipped with a strike team to break through their formation,” Xu Shu said casually.

Among the many small worlds developed by Xinghan, there is one world that is rich in exotic flowers and herbs. Under the research of Shennong Department, it has successfully achieved annualized mass production.

In addition, there was the divine irrigation from the Himalayas, the meat production from Africa, the fisheries from the ocean, and the advancement of martial arts knowledge...

With all sorts of miscellaneous items combined with Mu Yi's monarchical talent, the Star Han Empire can produce tens of thousands of new Inner Qi Formation cultivators and dozens of Inner Qi Departure cultivators every year.

Mu Yi's monarch talent can improve breakthrough efficiency. Not to mention the number of new breakthroughs each year, his past growth rate has also been exceptionally astonishing.

However, due to mass production, most of these powerful individuals do not possess legion talents.

Even when they break through to the boundary-breaking level, they will not forcibly condense the legion's talent, but will instead condense their alien power in the way that Rome did.

This is quite a pity.

However, this is not absolute. If those who meet the required standards are willing to join a military academy, they still have a chance to develop into a legion of talent.

But most people still dedicate themselves to martial arts, becoming super soldiers on the battlefield.

However, these super soldiers, when gathered together, can indeed create some gaps in the battle line.

These super soldiers on the battlefield roared and howled, tearing the Mongol Yuan lines to shreds and easily disrupting their formation.

In the instant the two sides clashed, the assault team displayed a completely overwhelming level of superiority; some swept their guns across the battlefield, while others swung their knives in a flurry of blows…

It appears messy, yet it is orderly.

The mutual cover and coordination of three or five Mongol soldiers were meaningless in the face of such overwhelming strength. The Mongol soldiers collapsed almost immediately upon contact.

"Fire arrows!"

The moment Jiang Wei saw the chaos, he immediately unleashed a rain of arrows to suppress the area around the table, allowing the assault team to better break through the battle lines.

Faced with the rain of arrows fired from Xinghan, the Mongol soldiers could only bend their bodies to reduce their surface area, either naturally dodging or raising their spears to deflect the arrows used by the Han army for suppression.

Their advance was instantly halted, and support and the battle lines became disconnected.

By the time they reached the front line, it had already been shattered into pieces.

"Damn it! All troops, charge! Get them out of here!"

The Mongol commander angrily issued the order, unable to accept that nearly a third of his troops had been left behind by Xinghan.

He attempted to use a cavalry charge to rescue the Mongol soldiers who had been captured.

He personally led the Mongol cavalry in a charge, unleashing his most powerful momentum the moment they met the spears and lances of the Han army.

When the two sides are evenly matched, the battle is fought on morale.

"Push back the front lines and let these guys in."

Jiang Wei looked at the devastated front lines, his face showing no emotion, and coldly issued new military orders.

The Legion talent that allows for one resurrection is truly useful, enabling you to withstand the enemy's charge and regain control of the battle line.

Taking advantage of the enemy's overwhelming momentum, we should proactively shrink our battle lines and lure them deeper into our territory.

Jiang Wei could see clearly that while the Mongol generals personally leading the troops deep into enemy territory greatly boosted morale, it also impaired his own vision.

By deliberately creating a weakness, the opponent will naturally fall into the trap.

The war drums thundered, and it was as if both sides were engaged in full-scale battle. In an instant, the entire battlefield erupted with all sorts of sounds, with arrows raining down as swordsmen and shieldmen charged forward, and the spearmen's densely packed spear formations resembling a hedgehog.

However, Jiang Wei and Xu Shu, who were in command positions, knew very well that although they looked aggressive, they were deliberately trying to lure the other side into a trap.

They pretended to be determined to defeat their opponent in one fell swoop, but instead retreated step by step.

It was precisely this regular alternation of advance and retreat that gave the Mongol side the impression that Jiang Wei was launching a fierce attack on them with half the force of a tidal wave.

By the time the Mongol Yuan forces realized something was wrong, their troops were already about one-fifth of their formation broken.

"It seems they've discovered us!" Jiang Wei thought, seeing the Mongol cavalry suddenly shrink back, guessing that the enemy had discovered their intentions.

"It's probably unrealistic to swallow it all at once; it'll probably break down by about one-fifth more!"

Xu Shu shook his head, gave orders to Ma Chao and Pang De, pointed out the weaknesses of the Mongol army, and then ordered the two flanks to encircle and finish them off.

Ma Chao and Pang De, one on the left and one on the right, took turns flanking and cutting off the Mongol army from both inside and outside.

"Retreat!" The Mongol commander nearly vomited blood.

His original mission was to disrupt Jiang Wei and his men as much as possible, but after one battle, he lost more than 7,000 men.

On the Xinghan side, thanks to Jiang Wei's talent, less than three thousand died in battle, of which more than nineteen hundred were puppets. This casualty ratio almost made the Mongol commander faint.

This wasn't a difference between soldiers, but a real difference between commanders. The combination of Jiang Wei and Xu Shu could hold their own against a military genius, let alone an ordinary officer from the Mongol Yuan dynasty.

His arrogance brought him such a terrible loss.

Just like when the Qing Dynasty dealt with Xinghan, excessive self-confidence brought about a devastating backlash.

The commander, who had been hit hard, immediately became obedient and dared not have any more improper thoughts. He stayed at a distance behind Jiang Wei and his men, observing their marching route.

It must be said that the level of the Mongol generals and officers was above average. After their arrogance and overconfidence were shattered, they immediately implemented the tactics most suitable for their current situation.

This act of hanging him at a distance really presented Jiang Wei with a difficult problem.

"If they keep pestering us like this, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to get anything done," Jiang Wei said, somewhat troubled.

Some tactics may seem rigid, but when used, they are very effective.

Given the opponent's guerrilla tactics, unless he is willing to exchange the elite troops of Ma Chao's and Pang De's main forces, he will not gain any advantage at all.

That was the best opportunity yet, but we still couldn't finish them off.

"Let's make some preparations soon and attack Xiapi. Let's apply to see if we can transfer the White Horse Cavalry here. Our scouts' range of activity is too small, and we'll be easily attacked."

Xu Shu devised a strategy: the main force of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty was busy killing Chi You, so they could participate, but it wouldn't be of much use.

It would be more meaningful to conquer two Mongol cities and establish a stable teleportation portal.

"Let Ma Chao lead his troops to scout ahead first!" Jiang Wei understood Xu Shu's meaning.

"General Yu Jin, I'll give you 30,000 men and leave General Pang De to you as well. You stay here to draw the Mongol forces' attention, while I lead the army ahead to attack Xiapi!"

“Yes!” Yu Jin nodded. After learning about history, he was somewhat reluctant to fight alongside Pang De.

However, that was ultimately just another possibility, and he could only suppress his complicated feelings and carry out Jiang Wei's military orders.

Yu used the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation to create an illusion of Jiang Wei, thus covering Jiang Wei's silent departure.

However, Yu Jin did not expect that the Mongol Yuan's falcon had already seen everything from the sky.

As a force that originated from nomadic peoples, raising eagles was second nature to them, and they had a large number of falcons with the internal energy separation level.

Even knowing that Jiang Wei had left, the Mongol commander could only stay far behind Yu Jin, waiting for reinforcements to arrive.

With Pang De at his command and 30,000 soldiers, even if the Mongol commander wanted to kill Yu Jin, he would have to consider whether he could actually do it.

Having suffered a defeat, the Mongol commander was clearly much more cautious and had no intention of engaging Yu Jin in a deadly battle until he had a numerical advantage.

The Mongol Yuan forces were urgently mobilizing their troops, not only to defend Xuzhou, but also to protect other cities.

When Chi You and Jiang Wei's army reached the heart of the Central Plains, the Mongol Yuan forces were already on high alert, drawing elite troops from various regions to defend the area.

Not only must we protect Xuzhou and Jingzhou, but we must also station troops in other places.

Originally, it wouldn't have been so easy for external armies to enter, but they opened up their own channels to control Chi You, so there's nothing to say about Chi You exploiting the loophole.

However, they were also unclear about how Jiang Wei and his group came to be, and could only temporarily attribute it to the sins committed by Chi You, and then actively clean up the mess left by the departments that caused the trouble.

Unbeknownst to Jiang Wei, the Mongol Yuan dynasty had already formed a massive encirclement around him. (End of Chapter)
