Conquering Myriad Worlds from the Mythical Three Kingdoms

Tarim was helpless.

I originally thought Zhao Yun was nothing special, just a cunning little man who was good at surprise attacks. I thought that as long as he played it safe, he would definitely be able to defeat his opponent.

But as the fighting went on, Tarimur realized something was wrong.

No matter what moves he used, even if he unleashed a burst of power beyond his previous limits, he couldn't harm Zhao Yun in the slightest.

Zhao Yun's spear maintained his constant pressure.

If he slowed down even a fraction, the spear would seem to pierce his throat, so he dared not be negligent in the slightest.

Gradually, all his attention became focused on what was in front of him, and he could no longer pay attention to anything else.

The entire battlefield seemed irrelevant to him, with only the spear in front of him constantly enveloping his entire body.

"A breakthrough in the heat of battle?"

Zhao Yun looked at Tarimur in front of him with a puzzled expression. The opponent was actually a Lu Bu-like figure. As the fight went on, his momentum grew stronger and stronger, making Zhao Yun feel a bit troubled.

"General Zhao, do you need my help?" Xu Huang asked, holding an axe, unaware of Zhao Yun's situation.

Could it be that he used up too much internal energy exploring the underground passage and is now a little weak?
As for Zhao Yun's claim of being evenly matched, Xu Huang didn't believe it. He had seen Zhao Yun unleash his full power as a general, and his fighting strength was definitely enough to go toe-to-toe with Lü Bu; he was simply not human.

Palmiro had just told him how Zhao Yun found the underground portal; his methods were almost divine.

He knew Tarim's skill level; it was even lower than his own, yet Zhao Yun couldn't defeat him even after a long time.

What Xu Huang didn't know was that if Zhao Yun failed to take down the enemy with his first shot, his level would automatically be dragged down to the same level as the enemy.

Therefore, enemies facing Zhao Yun are either either too weak and instantly killed by Zhao Yun, or they fight to a draw with Zhao Yun.

However, aside from a few top experts who know that Zhao Yun is truly unable to unleash his full potential.

In most people's eyes, Zhao Yun is a very reliable person, but also has a very wicked sense of humor and likes to play cat and mouse games.

"Gongming, please help me!"

Zhao Yun was being stared at by a group of people, and he felt a little embarrassed, after all, Xu Huang had led his men to scatter the Mongol soldiers in the camp.

The battle had already ended, but he was still here struggling with Tarim, yet he couldn't do anything about it.

They could only reluctantly ask Xu Gongming to come and help. Yu Jin had already sent word that the fighting had started, and they needed to resolve the issue as soon as possible to return and assist in the defense, thus preparing for the next battle.

Zhao Yun was a rational man. He knew very well that this was a war, not a one-on-one duel.

The optimal solution at this point is to have Xu Huang help them, so that they can quickly defeat the opponent in a two-on-one situation.

Xu Huang, without any suspicion, swung his axe and rushed to Tarimur's side. With a powerful sweep, he forced Tarimur to distort his movements, and Zhao Yun seized the opportunity to deliver a long spear to join the attack.

Both men were stronger than Tarimur, and now it was two against one. Tarimur was captured alive in less than ten rounds.

Xu Huang glanced at Zhao Yun with a strange look. He wondered if it was just his imagination, but after he joined the battle, Zhao Yun's fighting strength seemed to decline sharply.

Fortunately, with two against one, there was little room for surprises, and the two easily defeated Tarimur, even capturing him alive.

"Suppress him and send him back to Luoyang after the war. We're sure to get something out of him!"

Xu Huang was somewhat excited; capturing enemy generals and officers was a great achievement no matter what.

"General Xu, General Zhao, the enemy's attack on the city is fierce. Please go to the city wall to provide support immediately!" Fifth Sky Sparrow's soldiers appeared in front of everyone to deliver the order.

"Leave a thousand men behind to clean up the battlefield, eliminate any survivors, and search the camp for anything of value!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Huang became much more serious and immediately issued orders before leading his troops toward the city wall to provide support.

He knew very well that Yu Jin had a large number of troops at his disposal, and there was only one situation in which they would be needed to support him: when a top-tier legion launched a fierce attack. Only in this situation would they be needed to step in and prevent the enemy from tearing a gap in the city wall and occupying it.

Zhao Yun hesitated for a moment, then followed and headed towards the city wall to provide support.

The white horse team entered last, and for the time being, he didn't need to give any command. He might still be able to help Yu Jin if he stayed with him.

"These lunatics!"

Yu Jin stood on the city wall, gritting his teeth. The city wall had become a meat grinder, with several top-tier legions occupying several sections.

Large numbers of Mongol soldiers are continuously reinforcing the city from their occupied areas, and siege ladders are approaching from outside the city. Yu Jin can only keep sending troops up for rotation, using numbers to suppress the Mongol siege.

"Reporting to the Marshal, the enemy camp has been cleared, and General Xu has arrived at the city walls. They have also brought the large flag from the camp."

Yu Jin was overjoyed upon hearing this. Although it had taken a while, they had finally cleared the trouble out of the city.

Without the Mongol assassins tying them down, they didn't need to send heavy troops to guard the logistics areas, allowing them to focus all their forces on the front lines and give the logistics personnel freedom of movement.

"Have General Xu scale the wall from the west side to suppress the western area and drive the enemy troops down. Then, have the archer units climb to the top and fire upon the Mongol soldiers below!"

Yu Jin quickly adjusted his arrangements.

Xu Huang carried the captured banner and rushed up the city wall, directly announcing the demise of the Mongol soldiers inside the city.

The news was instantly relayed back to the Mongol camp.

"What?" The Mongol commander was dumbfounded. Tarim was a pillar of their internal and external cooperation.

Less than two hours have passed since Tarim gave the signal to attack, and Tarim has already been wiped out. Isn't this a trap?

But the siege had already begun, and the Mongol commanders could not simply retreat. So after a brief moment of hesitation, the Mongol forces decided to continue the attack.

They also knew that Chi You's army was behind them.

The saying "pick the softest persimmon" is a truth in everyone's mind.

Unable to defeat Chi You's massive army behind them, they had no choice but to grit their teeth and fight Yu Jin. With Tarim's support, their decision was arguably correct.

But now, it's a completely wrong decision; holding out and waiting for reinforcements is the best option.

However, for the commander, they are basically all bad options, just one that is a little worse.

Holding out and waiting for reinforcements will still result in being attacked from both sides, so it's better to seize the initiative and bring the war directly to the city walls.

By using warfare to trap the people inside the city, they could better deal with the Chi You army coming from outside.

The fierce battle raged atop the city walls. Meanwhile, Chi You's army outside the city finally reached its destination.

Jiang Wei and Chi You's thirty-seventh brother, Lin, joined forces and set up camp twenty miles away from the Mongol army.

After all, no one knew when or from where the Mongol reinforcements would arrive.

"I know there are doubts about our cooperation, so I won't ask for command or anything. We'll go first, and you can decide when to strike!"

Lin left with a single sentence and immediately led the Jiuli army to launch an attack.

They continued Chi You's fighting style, or rather, they were Chi You's clones. They were his brothers from his memories. Since even Chi You was reduced to fragments, these brothers had naturally perished long ago.

Chi You resurrected their physical forms, but he could not resurrect their spirits; he could only replace them with his own memories.

Essentially, they are a group of Chi You cosplaying brothers from memory, so almost every one of them can be regarded as a part of Chi You, and their style of doing things is naturally similar to Chi You.

Lin led the most elite Jiuli soldiers in a charge, while at the same time, the Mongol Yuan also quickly assembled more than 5,000 warriors to meet the attack.

The two sides clashed fiercely with the force of a comet hitting the earth, and the round shields in the hands of the Mongol soldiers were smashed with the terrifying power of heavy weapons.

They were the most elite infantrymen of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty, wearing the best equipment and enjoying the best training, all to support the infantry.

The Mongol Yuan dynasty conquered the world with its cavalry, but they did not neglect the development of infantry. Or rather, they absorbed information from more than a dozen worlds. In the Mongol Yuan dynasty, cavalry and infantry were actually the two mainstays supporting the empire's military power.

Fighting the Jiuli warriors in a bloody battle was a top-tier infantry legion called the Wolf Hunt Guard.

The Mongol Yuan dynasty possessed an abundance of secret techniques, and with the accumulation of these various techniques, the Wolf Hunting Guards were incredibly powerful in combat.

Their terrifying basic qualities allow the Wolf Hunt Guard soldiers to unleash almost unparalleled power in every move they make.

They are proficient in various special skills and have undergone a lot of special talent refinement. With the support of their basic qualities, the destructive power that these skills can cause is far beyond imagination.

The sheer force of these people's every move was something that ordinary legions could not possibly resist.

However, the Jiuli warriors held them off. They didn't have any special skills or undergo much special talent refinement, but they withstood the Wolf Hunt Guards' attacks with just the simplest basic moves.

The Wolf Hunter Guard's path is based on a combination of qualities and skills, a very pragmatic path that can be achieved through training and combat.

The Jiuli warriors are different; they rely on idealism and character, and the combination of the two allows them to unleash tremendous power even without any special skills.

After the first clash, both sides developed an extreme sense of apprehension towards each other.

The opponent is very strong, and both sides realized this without prior agreement.

"What powerful legions!"

Jiang Wei's expression was solemn. After the cross-world war, the enemies were all ridiculously strong. In his opinion, the Imperial Guard of the Original Forged Emperor was inferior to these two legions.

Of course, the difference may not be very large.

The two brave and fearless legions clashed, neither able to gain the upper hand.

The confrontation between the two sides was just the beginning. This was a war, not a military conflict; they were merely the vanguard that lifted the curtain.

"Kill!" The Jiuli warriors' swords pierced the chests of the Mongol soldiers opposite them, and then the blood sacrifice power they unleashed at full force enveloped the Mongol soldiers. In the next instant, the Mongol soldiers, unable to resist, were sacrificed to the Jiuli warriors.

Jiang Wei noticed this scene and immediately understood why Chi You wanted to open a second battlefield. With Chi You's blood sacrifice ritual cut off, Chi You actually transferred the blood sacrifice power to the soldiers.

Although this significantly reduced efficiency and prevented the recovery of their own people's strength, it at least opened a crack in the path to becoming stronger that had been blocked by the Mongol Yuan dynasty.

In this way, the only thing that binds them is the heavens, and no matter how many sacrifices are made, they cannot break through the heavens' blockade. However, this does not prevent them from sacrificing their power to others.

Moreover, a legion possessing this power, as long as it is not defeated in one fell swoop, possesses extremely strong resilience, which means it will not lose.

"Sacrifice-type talents... I remember the Eleven Eagle Legions in Rome had a similar ability, right?" Jiang Wei asked Xu Shu beside him.

“Yes, the Eleven Loyal Claudius Legion, although they have accepted our incorporation, their organization was decimated by the previous war. Although they have absorbed the strength left behind by the fallen soldiers, they still need a lot of training to master it.” Xu Shu nodded.

The Eleven Loyal Claudius Legion is a very powerful legion, possessing the Fivefold Sacrifice technique, which can be considered to have been developed to its extreme.

It even achieved the ability of a pseudo-military spirit, directly transferring power to new recruits.

In terms of sacrificial abilities alone, he is definitely much stronger than the Jiuli warriors in front of him.

Unfortunately, this legion was considered a conservative faction within Rome, and its submission was merely a matter of weighing the options. It had always felt somewhat alienated from Xinghan.

In recent years, thanks to policy support, this legion has been willing to cooperate with Xinghan's policy initiatives, which can be considered a good start to the transformation.

However, the army was decimated in the great war with the Mongol Yuan dynasty and has not yet recovered to its strongest state.

Xinghan has always adopted a laissez-faire attitude.

After all, treating the die-hards well can sometimes be a goodwill signal, and Xinghan Integration needs such people within its organization.

"When should we strike?" Ma Chao asked, somewhat eager to try.

"Now is not the time. Both sides are fighting fiercely, but the battle lines are still intact. We cannot achieve the greatest results if we make a move now!" Jiang Wei signaled Ma Chao to remain calm.

"Chi You's choice to open a second front was indeed good, but the Mongol response was too mediocre..."

Xu Shu frowned. Meng Yuan's performance was commendable, but that was all.

In Xu Shu's view, the Mongol Yuan's response should have been more aggressive, but what was being presented now was truly perplexing to them.

"Do you think the Mongol Yuan dynasty still has a backup plan?" Jiang Wei understood the meaning behind Xu Shu's words.

"If you were in their shoes and wanted to wipe us all out, how would you plan it?" Xu Shu turned to the crowd and asked.

"Just send a large cavalry force to crush all the enemies!" Ma Chao replied casually.

Upon hearing this, Xu Shu fell into deep thought.

"That's not impossible!"

Xu Shu instantly thought of the Rainbow Bridge. Since they had this technology, the Mongol Yuan Dynasty might have it too, or rather, the Mongol Yuan Dynasty definitely did.

But such an unpredictable problem is extremely difficult to prevent, unless they can create a weakness that allows the enemy to act unexpectedly in their anticipated location. (End of Chapter)
