Conquering Myriad Worlds from the Mythical Three Kingdoms
Chapter 1169 Plain Roller
"Hahaha, that power is truly something to miss!"
Li Jue held the flag with a nostalgic expression, as if he were leading the Flying Bear into battle.
"Ado, be careful, these people over there are not easy to deal with!" Guo Si advised.
Li Jue tossed his head: "What's there to be afraid of? We are now under the protection of Heaven. On the plains, our Xiliang Iron Cavalry is invincible. No matter how many come, we will kill them all!"
"Hmph, this place is perfect for us now. There's no complicated terrain at all, and the cavalry can easily deploy," Li Jue said confidently.
"Beep beep beep~" Three alarm sounds.
Everyone immediately tensed up. Even the soldiers at the very back knew that the enemy was approaching.
"Good! This saves me the trouble of making a trip. Today, I'll kill all these bastards!" Li Jue roared excitedly, his hands itching with excitement after his ego swelled up.
He couldn't wait for a formidable opponent to appear so that he could lead the Xiliang cavalry to kill him.
Although Li Jue was somewhat arrogant, this feeling of regarding the enemy as nothing unconsciously boosted the morale of the group by three points.
A raging soldier, and a raging nest.
The more confident the leading officer is, the higher the morale of his soldiers becomes.
Meanwhile, Ma Xige, who also saw the Star River Army on the horizon, showed no surprise in his calm expression; instead, his eyes were filled with a hint of delight.
After the sacrificial ceremony, the gods generously bestowed power upon them, more than ever before, which gave Ma Xige the same confidence.
For these top-tier elites, receiving the message requires no further command; their past battles have made it perfectly clear what their next move should be.
Upon learning that the enemy was charging towards them, Ma Xige immediately ordered his cavalry to charge. Multiple rays of light emanated from his body, and the various attributes of his human body gradually increased.
A beam of light slammed down from the sky, and the speed of Ma Xige's cavalry suddenly increased once again.
In the Chu Kingdom, each deity has a corresponding power boost.
The blessing represented by Yun Zhongjun is an amplification of speed, which not only increases movement speed, attack speed, and reaction speed.
The other gods also have their own strengths, such as stamina recovery, recovery speed, and resistance to attacks. All these attributes combined together gave the Chu soldiers a comprehensive boost.
The power of other gods is transmitted through sacrifices, but since the true form of Yun Zhongjun is here, the effect of his blessing will be even greater.
The Chu cavalry moved with lightning speed, reaching the Xiliang cavalry before their charge could reach its peak. Their charge forcefully interrupted the Xiliang cavalry's momentum and their efforts to build up their morale.
"They really underestimate us!" Li Jue grinned maliciously.
"Brothers, let's show them the might of the Xiliang cavalry!"
Li Jue did not unfurl the military flag because it was unnecessary; the power of three talents was sufficient to deal with such an opponent.
Guo Si did not try to persuade Li Jue, partly because it was too late, and partly because Guo Si also had great confidence in the Xiliang cavalry.
Faced with a formidable opponent, they showed no sign of backing down, only a relentless and crushing roar as they charged forward.
As they approached 300 paces, both sides increased their speed once again, clearly indicating that neither was willing to give way to the other.
The Chu cavalry, blessed by the gods, not only possessed superior physical attributes, but could easily defeat those without such blessings. This power inflated their egos, making them believe they could achieve victory under the watchful eyes of the gods, and they displayed an invincible aura.
"Their momentum is like a rainbow, their attack line is as sharp as a knife, they are no ordinary opponents, and their speed is obviously abnormal!" Li Que glanced at the opponent's attack line and a ferocious smile appeared on his face.
Very strong, enough to go toe-to-toe with the Imperial Guard cavalry with three talents.
But that wasn't enough; the Xiliang cavalry had killed countless opponents of that caliber.
"The enemy did not display any divine blessing, so why is their aura so magnificent? Facing our side, which is blessed by the gods, they are all fearless. Where did this enemy come from?" Ma Xige made his judgment as he charged forward, his eyes coldly sweeping over the Xiliang Iron Cavalry.
The distance between the two was fleeting, and all the thoughts in their minds were suppressed, leaving only pure killing intent.
The brave wins when we meet on a narrow road.
The Xiliang Iron Cavalry soldiers behind Li Jue naturally formed a wedge formation, reinforcing the vanguard with Li Jue at its core, ready to break through the enemy in one fell swoop.
"Fire the crossbow bolts!"
Li Jue roared and issued his first order, revealing the deadliest weapon in his hands.
In the blink of an eye, fifty paces had passed. Almost instantly, the soldiers of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry concentrated their crossbows on the center of the enemy, unleashing over a thousand bolts. In the next instant, the Iron Cavalry soldiers didn't even look at the result; they simply hung their single-arrow crossbows on their horses, gripped their spears with both hands, and began their final thrust!
This set of killing moves is the most standardized combat procedure of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry. Especially with the Mo family constantly updating the crossbow technology and the soldiers constantly maintaining the crossbows, these crossbows have the ability to pierce through shields.
The crossbow bolts almost entirely covered the front of the Xiliang cavalry's charge, attempting to open a path for them.
But the moment the arrows struck the Chu cavalry, they were all deflected, as if the Chu cavalry had an invisible layer of protection specifically designed to deflect the arrows.
The soldiers of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry did not waver in the slightest, gripping their spears tightly.
"Hahaha!"
Li Jue laughed loudly, raised his spear, and impaled two Chu cavalrymen on it like candied hawthorns, then sped past.
The arrow protection of the Chu cavalry was indeed impressive, but it was just that—impressive. It was meaningless against the long spears of the Xiliang cavalry.
Everything the Chu cavalry had was rendered meaningless before the long spears raised by the Xiliang iron cavalry.
When the Xiliang cavalry charged into the ranks of the Chu cavalry, their momentum, which had already reached its limit, suddenly surged dramatically.
The clouds above both sides tangled and churned wildly, exerting a near-equal pressure on both sides, but this pressure was not enough to stifle the Xiliang cavalry's edge.
Upon entering their most familiar territory, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry immediately unleashed their dominant power.
Originally, the Chu cavalry was roughly equivalent to the Imperial Guard cavalry, and even the top-tier ones. They were not without the ability to resist a three-talent legion.
With the coordinated efforts of several men sacrificing themselves in small groups, the Chu elites instantly seized the opportunity to deliver their fatal blows. However, at the moment of impact, the eyes of the Chu elites were filled with bewilderment.
The shot felt like piercing a solid iron pillar. The enemy, bracing themselves against their own long spears and supported by their comrades behind them, easily killed their own comrades. It felt like an adult entering a kindergarten, effortlessly crushing the children, and their own attacks utterly annihilating their own side.
The Chu cavalry was very well-rounded, but being well-rounded often meant another thing: being a jack-of-all-trades but master of none.
Especially when facing the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, whose strength and defense were far superior to theirs, they were in a very sorry state.
There are only a few ways to deal with an all-around unit: either you are superior in all aspects, or all your qualities are similar to the opponent's, but you are significantly better in one aspect.
Unfortunately, the Xiliang cavalry's physical attributes were similar to those of the Chu cavalry after their buffs were applied, and their defense was particularly outstanding.
Under these circumstances, the elite cavalry of Chu could only be unilaterally beaten by the Xiliang iron cavalry, and had little power to fight back.
"Hahaha, that's the feeling!" Li Jue threw away the spear with three corpses in his hand, pulled out his horse-slaying sword, and began to slaughter everyone in sight.
The Xiliang cavalry were actually equipped with three types of weapons: a long spear for high-speed breakthroughs, a horse-slaying sword for mounted combat, and a ring-shaped sword for fighting on foot.
The first one is self-explanatory; just take it out when charging.
After the charge, the two sides were already locked in combat, and it was time to draw their sabers and begin the fierce fighting.
The sword, with its powerful and heavy strokes, swept across the battlefield, instantly killing several Chu cavalrymen who stood in Li Jue's way.
"Ado, the infantry on the other side are pressing up, they're trying to escape!" Guo Si roared at Li Jue after killing a centurion in front of him.
"How could we let them get away!" Li Jue roared, raising the military flag he had never used before.
"The Blue Heaven is dead, the Yellow Heaven shall rise!"
With a roar, he activated the military flag in his hand, and the radiance of the yellow sky instantly shone forth, making all the Xiliang Iron Cavalry soldiers feel a surge of power.
A power that seemed to be etched into their very bones welled up within them.
"The Blue Heaven is dead, the Yellow Heaven shall rise!"
The roar, as powerful as a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing down, caused the soldiers of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to radiate a brilliant light, just like the scene when the power of their military spirit was fully ignited.
Li Jue knew very well that the three-talented Xiliang Iron Cavalry was not invincible after all. The enemy army had already pressed forward, and if they did not leave, they would definitely be surrounded.
The opposing army moved at an uncanny speed, roughly comparable to Xiahou Yuan's talent buff.
This put the Xiliang cavalry at a disadvantage, as speed has always been their Achilles' heel.
Right now, they might not even be able to outrun the enemy infantry.
Even though the Xiliang cavalry were mounted infantry, they still had the strength to fight after dismounting, but being surrounded was ultimately a difficult predicament.
Therefore, Li Jue did not hesitate to use the trump card he had just acquired.
Bathed in the golden light of the heavens, the Xiliang cavalry shattered the Chu cavalry's formation as easily as cutting melons and vegetables. Li Jue and Guo Si, without hesitation, led their personal guards to charge through the gaps in the defenses.
"Damn these chickens!"
Li Jue's confident roar boosted the morale of the Xiliang cavalry.
They did not flee, nor did they make a strategic retreat. Instead, after tearing apart the Chu cavalry formation, they forcefully crashed into the Chu army's formation with ferocious force.
Li Jue wasn't a commander of a large army, but having lived on the battlefield for so long, he had long since come to understand many principles. Faced with the encirclement and suppression of a large army, the only way Li Jue could think of to achieve victory was to shatter the enemy's fighting spirit and make the opposing soldiers understand just how weak they were.
Immediately with a roar from Li Jue and Guo Si, the miraculous power, along with the full bloom of the Legion Talent, granted each Xiliang Iron Cavalryman an additional layer of Legion Talent defense comparable to plate armor, and also made each Xiliang Iron Cavalryman immune to the effects of enemy abilities.
Although this blessing could only last for less than a quarter of an hour, Li Jue was confident that a quarter of an hour would be enough to make the other side despair.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Like Guo Sifeng, Li Jue charged into the enemy ranks, enduring their attacks and taking down the enemies he faced.
Seeing this, the Xiliang cavalry behind them became even more imposing, relying on their battle will honed through countless trials and their steel-like defense, enhanced by the radiance of the Yellow Heaven, to withstand the enemy's attacks and fight to the death.
"General Zhou, it's time for us to make our move!"
Li Yan gazed at the battlefield from afar, watching the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, under the blessing of the Yellow Heaven, almost forcefully suppress tens of thousands of enemy soldiers with a single legion. His heart was filled with restlessness, and he couldn't wait to rush forward and kill the enemy.
"Let the soldiers of Danyang provide long-range support to Generals Li and Guo, while I lead the Imperial Guard to protect the elite troops of Danyang. What do you think?"
Zhou Cang surveyed the battlefield situation. His white horse roamed the outer perimeter, constantly seeking opportunities to kill Chu soldiers.
However, the Chu soldiers were protected by arrows, so mounted archery was not very effective. The kills were mainly concentrated on the white horses harvesting the stragglers.
White Horse is not good at attacking fortified positions; it can only wait quietly for the battle to end and for the Chu army to collapse before expanding its gains.
The Xiliang cavalry were already deeply entrenched in the enemy's formation. Although the opposing cavalry had their formation broken, they were already regrouping.
Both Danyang and the Imperial Guard are infantry legions. If they are separated, it would be troublesome if they were defeated one by one by the enemy cavalry.
Therefore, Zhou Cang simply suggested that Danyang switch to archers for long-range support, while they would guard the vicinity of Danyang. In that case, even if the enemy cavalry charged, they could hold off the charge, and two volleys of arrows from Danyang would send the enemy cavalry flying.
"It seems that Generals Li and Guo do not need my support!" Li Yan nodded in agreement with Zhou Cang's suggestion, but when he looked at the battlefield, he still sighed sincerely.
Li Jue and Guo Si had gone completely berserk at this moment. The Xiliang Iron Cavalry was not the Miracle Legion, but at this moment they were no different from the Miracle Legion.
The ultimate qualities and brilliant will combined, along with a weakened version of the miracle-denying effect, completely transformed the Xiliang Iron Cavalry into a war machine.
Are they planning to use their numbers to encircle and annihilate our Xiliang Iron Cavalry?
Don't make your brother Li Jue laugh.
We'll break through your army and see if you can maintain your morale.
Li Jue and Guo Si adopted the same tactic, charging directly towards the central army of the Chu state.
The Chu army along the way tried to resist, but the Xiliang cavalry crushed them like steamrollers, unable to slow their advance. (End of Chapter)
