The power of the imperial will blossomed in Liu Yuan's hands.

"It's a pity that this is all the will of the Empire I have left. Otherwise, I could be even stronger now. This is all I can do for now!"

Liu Yuan sighed deeply; this was the last vestige of imperial will left in the Northern Xiongnu.

He would never have used it if the situation hadn't been so dire this time.

Let's pave the way for the future of the Xiongnu.

The imperial will in Liu Yuan's hands shone brightly upon all his soldiers, and with the help of the divine mandate that they were either Han or non-Han, he included all the non-Han people in his ranks.

Even the last vestige of imperial will is enough to distort reality.

Almost all the Hu people's status was forcibly locked at their own upper limit.

The biggest problem with the Hu people, especially the mixed Hu people, is their performance. Their potential is no less than that of the Xiongnu and the Han generals, but their potential is too low. They can even fall to their lowest point as soon as they encounter a setback.

Liu Yuan could have used this imperial will to create more elite troops for the Xiongnu, but in order to control all the Hu people, he chose to lock down the system.

Let all the Hu people realize that under the leadership of the Xiongnu, they can defeat the Han people, awaken their wildness, and make them true Hu people.

After all, the definition of "Xiongnu" is actually quite broad; any non-Han people who could be exchanged for Han people could be called Xiongnu.

The Xiongnu didn't really care about things like bloodlines, since they were a product of constantly annexing other tribes.

They might have been more particular before, but after being crushed, their only standard was whether they could be exchanged one for one with a Han Chinese.

This was also the last glory of the Xiongnu.

Following the glory of the imperial will, all sorts of colors immediately began to erupt within the entire Hu (non-Han) coalition army.

Many leaders of various non-Han ethnic groups, who had lost their morale after being defeated by the Han Chinese and lacked military talent, developed military talent under the activation of the will of the Xiongnu Empire.

The brilliance of dozens of legion talents shone brightly among the Hu people's allied forces.

The interplay of light propelled the entire Hu (non-Han) coalition army into the sky once more, unleashing an astonishing momentum.

"Hehe..." Pang Tong's smile vanished completely, leaving only a completely rational indifference.

He understood what Liu Yuan was doing in an instant.

Do you think you can rebuild a Hunnic Empire with this trash?

"war!"

Gan Ning charged forward on his horse, letting out a roar that resounded through the heavens and earth. The brilliance of his legion's talent seeped into the Four Seas Ship, and with his will, it exploded instantly, covering all the officers and soldiers present with a layer of ocean color.

In just a moment, the already formidable Star River army surged into the sky once more.

A look of astonishment appeared on Pang Tong's face.

This is... the will of the Empire?
No, it's not; it's the will of an empire.

To be precise, it is Xinghan's will towards the ocean.

Gan Ning summarized Xinghan's concept of the sea, then used the existence of the Four Seas Ships to guide these concepts, and then used his own legion talent as a starting point to unleash them.

"Was it only born after the concept of the air force was also adopted, since it couldn't be done before?" Pang Tong guessed.

He knows Gan Ning very well; when they fought Yang Ku before, Gan Ning could never have done this.

But now, the methods Gan Ning is employing are so impressive that anyone who sees them would have to praise him as the undisputed Governor-General of the Four Seas.

"Have you never stopped learning and moving forward?" Pang Tong looked at Gan Ning with a smile on his face.

Gan Ning may not be as talented as Zhou Yu in naval warfare, but Gan Ning has never admitted defeat. He has been constantly absorbing all useful knowledge and turning it into his own. Now, as the commander-in-chief of the navy and air force, Gan Ning's accumulated knowledge has been fully brought to the fore.

Pang Tong was surprised, but his hands never stopped moving.

His self-created Xuanxiang Army Formation - Nine-Bend Linked Formation, combined with his self-created Great Secret Technique - Iron Chain Link, the two together exerted a multiplied effect.

The cloud reserves of the Tianzhou and the Four Seas Fleet were linked to the army by dense chains, making the army's cloud thick and viscous.

Pang Tong channeled this massive cloud of energy to every soldier on the front lines, providing them with comprehensive enhancements while also using the cloud as a medium to alleviate the injuries of the soldiers.

The damage that needs to be shared is automatically reduced significantly by the transformation of the clouds in the middle.

"How magnificent!"

Huang Zhong was thrilled by this scene and immediately led the Will Legion stationed on the Sky Ship to charge out.

Mu Yi originally intended for Huang Zhong to lead the air force, since the first air force was the Dragon Knights, but unfortunately Huang Zhong's talent was limited.

In terms of command and dispatch, he was slow to reach the level of a large-scale army commander. On the contrary, Gan Ning, who had been in the position of Governor-General of the Four Seas for so long and had been constantly learning, became a qualified large-scale army commander.

However, because of this, Huang Zhong was able to command almost all the legions on the Tianzhou.

One of the two Will Legions stationed on Tianzhou is Huang Zhong's exclusive legion.

"Old man, are there no Han Chinese left? How could they send an old geezer like you to the battlefield!"

Qu Lin, a general of the Xiongnu, looked at Huang Zhong, whose hair and beard were all white, and mocked him with disdain.

Huang Zhong didn't say anything, but urged his warhorse to charge towards Qu Lin.

"Since you've come to die, then I'll kill you and drink from your skull!" Qu Lin roared, ignoring Huang Zhong, and charged towards him.

A complex expression appeared on Huang Zhong's face.

Does he really think he's Lu Bu? How dare someone who has just entered the Divine Realm face him like this?

"kill!"

At this moment, Huang Zhong's energy and spirit had reached their peak, and his power suddenly burned to its limit.

In an instant, all the wrinkles on Huang Zhong's face disappeared, his slightly gray hair returned to its original black color, and the golden armor that had been somewhat loose became bulging again because of the return of his muscles.

In an instant, Huang Zhong released all his stored energy and spirit, and his entire being returned to the peak of his youth in a flash.

His muscles bulged and became more powerful at this moment, and the energy in his chest surged into his heart. Huang Zhong's spirit soared to new heights at this moment.

This strike will be invincible!
"Die!"

Qu Lin, who was opposite Huang Zhong, had already felt the threat of death the moment Huang Zhong rejuvenated.

Without any hesitation, he unleashed all his inner energy. His will to survive propelled his strength to unprecedented limits, even revealing a faint radiance beneath the clouds.

However, Huang Zhong remained unmoved, spurring his horse straight at Qu Lin. His Crimson Blood Blade traced an icy blue path, its momentum like a mountain collapsing and the earth splitting, fierce and unstoppable.

In the instant they approached, Huang Zhong roared like thunder, and an icy blue light spread out from Huang Zhong as the center, causing all the soldiers within its reach to slow down.

Not only their movements, but even their thoughts seemed frozen. Their inability to think was, in fact, a stroke of luck.

Qu Lin felt it most acutely. His divine will clearly sensed the freezing of time, thought, and matter, but even burning everything did not help him break free. He could only watch helplessly as Huang Zhong swept his sword across the room.

The Crimson Blood Blade swept across the air in an arc, and Huang Zhong rode past, severing Qu Lin's upper body along with several of his personal guards in one stroke.

The belief in burning everything is indeed enough to make a master unleash strength beyond the limit, but Huang Zhong's belief was even more steadfast.

"Soldiers, charge! The enemy general is dead!"

Huang Zhong reached out and grabbed Qu Lin by the upper body, shouting loudly.

With Huang Zhong's roar, the morale of the Hu cavalry in front of him instantly collapsed. If it weren't for the imperial will locking in their limits, they would probably have collapsed by now.

Capturing enemy generals and flags is the most effective way to boost one's own morale and demoralize the enemy.

Not to mention that Huang Zhong used a little secret technique at this moment, and almost everyone who looked at him could feel his chilling majesty. In addition, with Qu Lin's corpse in Huang Zhong's hand, none of the Hu people dared to stop Huang Zhong.

At this moment, Huang Zhong, filled with absolute confidence, led his troops in a charge forward. Even though he had already exhausted a considerable amount of his energy and spirit, he did not feel tired at all; on the contrary, he felt even more spirited.

"Gentlemen, follow me to kill the enemy!"

Huang Zhong, whose momentum had already surged, was in high spirits. His green horse reared up, and Huang Zhong, half-standing on the horse, drew his bow and shot an arrow, roaring with high spirits.

Draw the bow and shoot the arrow.

The arrow, like a short spear, shot out of the bowstring like a meteor, whistling as it traversed hundreds of paces and pierced a general's chess piece.

Then the bowstring was plucked swiftly, and six arrows transformed into streaks of light, flying towards the six secondary flags, after which all the secondary flags were broken.

The commander-in-chief was killed in battle, the commander's flag was broken, and the deputy commander's flag was broken.

The Hu cavalry led by the Xiongnu collapsed directly. The power of the imperial will is ultimately limited. No matter how much the upper limit is locked, it cannot stop these Hu people from degenerating themselves.

Under Huang Zhong's brutal crushing force, the entire army collapsed.

Fear, extreme fear, permeated the Hu people.

"The old general is truly remarkable!" Pang Tong exclaimed in amazement from the rear.

On the vast battlefield, Huang Zhong almost single-handedly brought the local area to complete collapse and continued to expand his advantage.

Gan Ning noticed Huang Zhong's actions and simply abandoned his role as the vanguard to cooperate with Huang Zhong in attacking the enemy formation.

After a round of fighting, the encirclement and annihilation that Liu Yuan had envisioned not only failed to occur, but instead turned into a one-sided massacre of the Hu people by Xinghan.

"Mobilize the elite cavalry and hold the line for me. We absolutely cannot let them continue killing like this!" Liu Yuan gritted his teeth and increased his bets once again.

The Hu people are too weak. Even with the support of the imperial will, they collapsed so quickly. At this time, the only option is to use the elite Xiongnu troops to hold them off. Otherwise, once the Hu people collapse and flee, they will definitely be caught up in the chaos.

"Location found! Main guns, prepare to launch him to the sky!"

Gan Ning, who was deep inside the formation, keenly noticed the changes in the battle lines and directly deduced Liu Yuan's approximate location.

Although it's not locked, it doesn't matter. As long as the coverage area is large enough, a little error is nothing.

At Gan Ning's command, the main guns of the Sihai warship began charging, and then fired directly at the location Gan Ning had predicted, with a pale glow, affecting a radius of several hundred meters.

"boom!"

A small mushroom cloud rose up in the direction of the target.

Liu Yuan was escorted away by experts and escaped a calamity, but he stared dumbfounded at the direction of the main gun of the Sihai warship.

The attack is comparable to that of a large army, and what's even more deadly is its incredible speed and ability to strike across visual range, making it impossible to defend against.

If it weren't for the expert protecting him closely, this place, now a deep pit, would be his burial ground.

"What exactly is this thing?" Liu Yuan asked in a state of panic.

From its inception, the Air Force has been shrouded in incomprehensible mysteries.

If Gan Ning were to find out, he would surely tell Liu Yuan that the times had changed from the day they intervened.

Having been attacked, Liu Yuan dared not show himself again and kept changing positions in command and dispatch.

It was indeed quite effective in preventing them from being killed by the main gun.

However, because Liu Yuan was not Han Xin, he did not have the ability to command a large army anywhere.

Taking advantage of Liu Yuan's inability to command and the instability of the Hu people's front, Gan Ning led his troops to join forces with Huang Zhong and directly defeated all the Hu people on the flank.

"Prepare the naval guns to bombard the central army. After three rounds of shelling, we will directly attack the central army!" Gan Ning ordered the naval guns to open fire and suppress the enemy.

This is another major advantage of the air force, as they can always directly use high-powered weapons similar to siege engines.

This is also an outstanding advantage of the air force, especially after being combined with the naval fleet, making artillery cover no longer a dream.

Each flank shot can directly destroy the formation of an entire unit.

Of course, in Gan Ning's eyes, the reason they were able to fight so smoothly was largely because the Hu people on the other side were too weak.

The Hu people, whose average level couldn't even guarantee two talents, were almost utterly defeated when facing the fierce and powerful army of Xinghan.

"How could this happen!" Liu Yuan was almost going crazy.

The entire battlefield was under the range of the fleet's cannon fire, along with a large number of stone balls being thrown. The Hu people were utterly defeated under this brutal offensive.

Even the bravest Hun warriors could not accept being turned into mincemeat by such a terrifying attack.

They can accept death, but not such a horrific one.

Morale had plummeted to almost zero; even the morale of the Xiongnu cavalry was in utter disarray.

"Withdraw!" Liu Yuan practically spat out the order through gritted teeth.

This is their royal court. If they run away now, they'll be just like before, becoming nothing more than stray dogs.

But Liu Yuan fully understood that war was no longer an option.

The enemy launched a surprise attack near the royal court. Although it was not a full-scale attack, it still gathered a considerable force.

Many warriors from various tribes came to participate in the unified training.

Now that they have been utterly crushed, it is uncertain whether the alliance can be sustained.

At this critical juncture, the Xiongnu must preserve their strength; otherwise, these mixed barbarian tribes, fearing the Han, might rise up and attack them in order to curry favor with the Han.

Therefore, even if it was humiliating, Liu Yuan had to endure it; only by living could he have hope. (End of Chapter)
