"Tank legions, charge with me!"

Xu Gai stood atop the chariot, raised his halberd, and roared loudly. His legionary talents shone forth, enveloping all the chariots within them.

Zhang Xiu led cavalry to guard both sides, preventing the chariots from being outflanked and targeted.

The destructive power of a tank charging head-on is extremely exaggerated, but its drawback is obvious: it goes straight and is not easy to turn.

If attacked by cavalry from the flanks or rear, the result would be the destruction of the chariot and the death of the rider.

Chariot-cavalry coordination is the ideal combat method for chariots.

Xu Gai gripped his weapon tightly. Xu Huang had told him what Xu Shu had said: whether he could lead the heavy cavalry legion best suited to him in the future would depend on his performance this time.

Xu Gai knew this was his chance, so he was more serious than ever before.

He wants to earn his future with solid achievements.

Xu Gai harbored a dream that no one had ever told him: to surpass Xu Huang.

Therefore, he must acquire a legion that is a good fit for him.

If he can't even do this, how can he talk about surpassing his father?

Xu Gai actually wanted to train his own legion, but unfortunately Xinghan wouldn't give a new general as many resources.

That's why Xu Gai led the chariot legion instead of the recruit legion.

Under Xu Gai's command, thousands of war chariots roared out and began a desperate charge.

At the same time, Xu Shu immediately used Xuanxiang to add the combat power of the soldiers in the rear who had not yet engaged in battle to the Xu Gai army on the front line. The Xu Gai chariot army, which had already reached its limit, seemed to have crossed a certain barrier, and its momentum soared.

"Come, let's fight! We will surely win this battle!"

Xu Gai roared, raising his halberd. The legion's will, activated to its limit, catalyzed the will to charge into battle to the extreme, continuously transforming into the power to fight.

Xu Huang, who was waiting in the rear, showed a look of great satisfaction. Xu Gai's excellence was beyond his imagination. At Xu Gai's age, he was no match for him at all.

Although Xinghan's surprise attack was abrupt, it caught the undead side off guard.

However, it still took some time from breaking into the undead territory to officially engaging in battle, and this time was enough for the undead to reorganize a portion of their forces for defense.

A large number of ghouls, mixed with massive abominations, charged towards the chariot legion, intending to form a wall of bodies to slow down the chariots' advance.

"Fire arrows!"

The skeleton archer legion launched a counterattack. Amplified by the Scourge Horn, the lethality of their arrows was no less than that of any dual-talent archer, and their overall combat strength was no less than that of the so-called imperial elite.

With a series of sharp whistles, countless arrows rained down on Xu Gai's chariot legion, while at the same time, a large number of death knights roared and charged toward the sides of the chariots.

Without a doubt, Xu Gai's chariot legion would not retreat at this moment. With an aura of crushing everything in its path, it roared and charged forward.

Once the tank took off, it had no room to slow down and roared as it sped toward the other side.

Braving the rain of arrows, shield in hand, and roaring as it charged forward, the cloud-like path it took meant that the ground movement had absolutely no effect on the chariot.

Arrows rained down like rain, and the crackling sounds on the steel shields spoke volumes about the devastation the chariots were enduring. Yet, despite this frenzied barrage, Xu Gai's chariot legion suffered no losses whatsoever.

Xu Shu was well aware of the drawbacks of chariots: firstly, the cavalry could flank from behind, and secondly, they were vulnerable to long-range attacks. Since he had arranged for Zhang Xiu to guard the flanks, he naturally wouldn't overlook the issue of long-range attacks.

The clouds permeated the real space, directly coating the tank legion with a layer of spatial film.

An attack without the participation of willpower simply cannot break through this defense.

"Changshui Battalion, beyond visual range strike, wipe them out!"

Xu Shu shifted some of his forces to the Changshui Camp, and the long-range legion, with its superior line of sight, locked onto the position of the skeleton archer squadron through the trajectory of its arrows.

Without the slightest hesitation, they unleashed their firepower. Their mission this time was simple: to shatter the enemy's ranged formation as quickly as possible.

The roar of explosions rose and fell, but could not drown out Xu Gai's roar.

"Die!"

The moment the chariot charged into the ghoul horde, Xu Gai wielded his over ten-foot-long halberd, using the momentum of the charge to unleash it like opening a valve, accompanied by his furious roar.

The powerful force instantly shattered the abomination on the other side into pieces.

The sweeping halberd easily tore the ghoul's body apart. Xu Gai's aura was rapidly increasing. He felt more exhilarated than ever before, and his power had become even stronger. No matter what stood in his way, it was violently crushed by him.

Spears and axes, long spears—simple yet effective tactics that determined the victor the moment the two sides clashed.

The tank legion's violent charge destroyed everything; they were the most violent hammers on the front lines, smashing away all obstacles.

"Kill!" Xu Gai roared, brandishing his weapon and fiercely slaughtering the undead around him. Relying on the terrifying strength boosted by the Xuanxiang Circulation, the chariot legion smashed through the undead like a tiger.

The undead army did not build trenches or other defensive fortifications, and there was nothing to say about barricades, but the speed of the chariot legion inevitably decreased, and a large number of spirit towers stood on the ground.

The moment the chariot legion crashed into it, the spirit tower collapsed, but the chariots were brought to a complete stop.

Without the speed boost, the chariot instantly lost its unstoppable momentum, became stuck in place, and was surrounded by the ghoul army that pounced on it.

"Xu Gai!" Xu Huang paced anxiously. Although he was extremely agitated, he could not go to provide support without receiving military orders.

"The army must continue its advance without stopping for a moment!"

Xu Shu's expression remained unchanged. On the battlefield, everyone was his pawn, including Xu Huang. He would not waver in the slightest because of Xu Gai's situation.

Xu Gai has completed his mission; whether he survives depends on his own efforts.

Xu Shu's attention was now completely focused on something deeper inside.

An elegant lich is watching them from afar.

"How foolish! The defensive towers here are enough to hold out until the undead army surrounds me!"

"I'll be right here watching as you are consumed by the shadow of the Scourge!" Kel'Thuzad's eyes blazed with an unprecedented intensity of undead fire.

The other side actually launched a proactive attack, which was somewhat unexpected, but it was just a futile struggle.

All struggles will be drowned by the sea of ​​the dead.

But seeing the struggling chariot legion, Kel'Thuzad snorted and began casting spells while still in place.

"Frost Nova!" Frost exploded at the edge of the chariot legion, and the soldiers of the entire chariot legion were instantly overwhelmed by the biting cold, their movements became extremely slow, and they were dragged off the chariots and overwhelmed by the ghouls that pounced on them.

"..." Kel'Thuzad looked at the tank legion with some annoyance.

His magic was suppressed too much by the clouds; the spells that should have frozen everyone could only make his opponents feel cold and stiff.

Although it can be considered a spell that can influence the course of a battle, its power is really not satisfactory.

"Let the meat grinders attack!"

After a moment's thought, Kel'Thuzad issued a completely new order.

Beneath the clouds, the extraordinary remained hidden, and the only thing left to rely on was the power of tradition.

The undead army also has machines; the meat grinder is a logistical vehicle used by the undead to transport corpses and can also carry out long-range bombardment.

Several mangled corpses were launched from the rear of the undead army, their muffled whistling sounds carrying terrifying destructive power as they landed among the chariot legion.

As blood and flesh flew everywhere, dark green smoke rose up in the middle of the battlefield.

The corpses in the meat grinder contained large amounts of plague virus. The corpses, smashed to pieces on the ground, released the plague directly over a large area.

Even with prior vaccination and the use of the undead plague, the soldiers of the chariot legion had to close their eyes and cover their mouths and noses to avoid the physical damage caused by the intense plague.

Many soldiers went blind the moment they came into contact with the plague, unable to see the enemy at all, and could only rely on their comrades' reminders to swing their weapons, which greatly reduced their combat effectiveness.

On the other side, although the number of undead was too large, many were accidentally injured by the falling corpses, and dozens of ghouls were even blasted into pieces on the spot.

But they completely ignored the plague and launched a frenzied attack on the soldiers of the chariot legion.

Xu Gai used his inner energy to create a sealed helmet to keep the plague out, and brandished his halberd, crushing all the surrounding undead.

"If it were a heavy cavalry legion, I could have charged out right now!"

Xu Gai had this thought in his mind more than once, but those were all hypotheticals. Right now, he could only try to break through with his chariot legion.

The chariots, unable to break through the encirclement of the undead, were completely unable to move due to the plague, and the oxen and horses they were pulling were foaming at the mouth and unable to get up. The chariot legion was instantly turned into an infantry legion.

Fortunately, Xu Gai's legion talent enhances the power of his charge, which he can use even as an infantryman; otherwise, let alone break out, he would definitely be slaughtered.

"This way, follow me and charge out!"

Just as despair was growing like weeds in Xu Gai's heart, Zhang Xiu's call pulled him back to reality.

Zhang Xiu was also surrounded, but compared to Xu Gai, he was clearly in a more relaxed situation.

Where the purple light swept across, the undead were harvested like straw, and so many of them could not even stop it.

The Death Knights, the backbone of the undead army, were nothing more than lambs to the slaughter in front of Zhang Xiu's main force. The losses suffered by Zhang Xiu's army in defeating the Death Knights were not even as great as the losses caused by the plague.

However, compared to Xu Gai's chariot legion, Zhang Xiu's main force was more adaptable, directly using willpower to distort reality and isolate themselves from the plague's effects.

When it comes to fighting, the three-talent legions with willpower and the three-talent legions with physical attributes might be evenly matched, but when it comes to battlefield suitability, the physical attribute legions can't even come close to the willpower legions.

Because willpower-type legions always possess a move called Willpower Distortion Reality, which can minimize all unfavorable factors to themselves, this is also why the Military Soul Legion is subtly superior to the three-talent legions.

It's not just the difficulty of last-hitting minions; the distortion of reality by will is also a major reason.

With Zhang Xiu leading the way, Xu Gai quickly led his soldiers to break through the encirclement.

As for those expensive chariots abandoned on the spot, they could only turn a blind eye at this moment and do their best to save their lives.

This is also Xinghan's internal educational philosophy: external objects can be recycled and reused, but life is not so convenient.

When necessary, one can sacrifice everything to save oneself.

When Xu Gai and Zhang Xiu finally broke through the encirclement and reunited with the main force, Xu Gai truly understood the meaning of "one general's success is built on the bones of ten thousand soldiers."

Looking back at the corpses scattered on the ground and the tank legion that had lost nearly half its strength, Xu Gai could only grip his weapon tightly and continue to break through with the main force.

"I must take control of the Spanish heavy cavalry legion!" Xu Gai gritted his teeth. If he had led the Spanish heavy cavalry today, there would have been far fewer losses, and he would not be so powerless as he is now.

Xu Gai's thoughts were irrelevant on the battlefield. Xu Shu merely glanced at him, assigned Xu Gai to the infantry corps' defensive line, and then focused all his attention on the battlefield.

The dead are rushing back from all directions.

Although they don't really have a formation, their sheer numbers are enough to pose a huge threat.

"How long until the second batch of Illusionary Warriors arrives?"

Xu Shu inquired about the progress of the Illusionary Warrior Legion. The Chariot Legion had torn open a gap, but the Spirit Tower was still in sight.

Rushing in would inevitably result in heavy losses, Xu Shu was certain of this, after all, the first wave of volleys from the defensive towers was no less powerful than that of top-tier archers.

Therefore, in such situations, a large number of cannon fodder are needed to fill the gaps.

Without the illusionary soldiers, they would have had to throw in at least several thousand soldiers before they could see any hope.

But now, the existence of the Illusionary Warriors is specifically for attracting fire and taking hits.

We've arrived!

Thousands of black dots appeared in the sky. The Illusionary Warriors who came from the rear did not hesitate for a moment and directly airdropped into the battlefield. While shielding the army, they frantically attacked the undead defense towers.

"Alright, all troops advance! Anyone who dares to retreat will be executed!"

Xu Shu roared and issued military orders, directing the army to split into three routes and launch a fierce attack along the gaps in the undead army.

The sheer number of undead became the biggest obstacle, making the army's advance extremely slow.

Xu Shu knew that if things dragged on, something would inevitably go wrong, so he immediately sent Xu Huang forward.

"Xu Huang, lead the Xuanming Legion forward and tear open a gap!"

Xu Shu finally unleashed his trump card, and the Xuanming Legion, which had been training for many days, began to show its fangs on the battlefield.

"What are those? Death Knights?" Kel'Thuzad was in a panic. He actually saw a group of humans stealing the power of the undead and using it against them.

But the Xuanming Legion didn't care about any of that. Thick necromantic power surrounded them, and the frost-covered necromantic greatswords in their hands easily froze the undead in front of them before shattering them.

The surge in power allowed the Xuanming Legion to relentlessly ravage the undead front lines. Their combined strength, at the third-tier talent level, enabled them to easily annihilate the undead before them. (End of Chapter)
