"Archery Battalion, wipe out that archer cavalry legion!"

Mu Yi revealed his second trump card: after initially deploying only a small portion of the Archery Battalion, it was time to unleash his full power.

"The Changshui Battalion will bombard and finish off the positions of the cavalry archers, preventing them from retaliating!"

With the twang of a bowstring, the soldiers of the Shooting Battalion released arrows imbued with their full spirit and energy. The specially made armor-piercing arrows directly shattered the Qing army's archer cavalry formation.

At that moment, the soldiers of Changshui Battalion fired wildly, and even afterimages appeared on their arms.

Within three breaths, fifteen powerful charged explosive arrows covered the position of the archer cavalry legion, and tens of thousands of explosive arrows followed the arrows of the Shooting Camp as they fell.

The Archery Battalion is a top-tier archer unit that, aside from a few truly insurmountable elite troops, is essentially a counter to all special units.

Its essence is an extremely powerful homing arrow, a trump card designed to reliably kill an entire legion.

However, because some of them had been deployed in advance, Mu Yi, to be on the safe side, also ordered the Changshui Battalion to coordinate the attack.

Under such intense and terrifying attacks, the entire cavalry archer legion was instantly wiped out; not a single soldier survived.

Atmospheric deflection, center of gravity shift, and mental shielding were all ineffective at this moment; the Qing army couldn't save them even if they wanted to.

As tens of thousands of explosive arrows rained down, the legions surrounding the horse archers also suffered a terrifying blow.

The Qing soldiers' shields and armor were like paper; even those at the very front were blasted to pieces the moment the arrows hit them, as if struck by machine gun fire.
When faced with such an attack that exceeds the limits, the defenses of ordinary soldiers are completely meaningless except for dodging.

In the short span of a few breaths, the Qing army's archer cavalry corps had been completely wiped out, and the places where the swordsmen and spearmen had stood were now covered with severed limbs.

Fear, fear, fear from the bottom of my heart.

Its extremely high efficiency in killing, its exchange ratio exceeding the limit, and its shocking killing effect comparable to the dazzling blade light of the swift white horse, delivered a heavy blow to the Qing soldiers almost instantly.

"Peacock, launch a second attack!"

Mu Yi coldly watched as one legion disappeared; their side had also paid the price of two legions.

The Shooting Battalion is unlikely to recover, and the Changshui Battalion also needs to rest due to excessive firepower. Both sides' professional long-range attacks have essentially fallen silent.

Because of their distance, peacocks are usually not the first target in such confrontations, but they still retain the right to fire.

"Short spear throw!"

Huang Taiji, not to be outdone, loudly gave the order. He was not annoyed at the annihilation of an entire three-talent legion; on the contrary, he was glad that this blow had not fallen on his head.

Honestly, if it were to fall on his head, he wasn't sure if the mental strength of his advisors could withstand it.

So before the second wave of attacks from the peacocks could even begin, a new trump card was revealed.

A group of soldiers dismounted, took javelins from their horses' sides, and then, as ordered, hurled them fiercely at the designated area.

Thousands of javelins were not thrown at Mu Yi, but were instead hurled fiercely at the scattered battle lines around him. The already crumbling battle lines were instantly thrown into turmoil, resulting in heavy casualties and allowing other Qing army corps to launch an attack.

Huang Taiji didn't know if his advisors could withstand the spear attacks, and he didn't want to gamble on the odds.

Therefore, he was very clear about his target: Xinghan's sniper defense line. As long as he attacked the command point, it would be enough to shake the entire front.

The spears were incredibly powerful; even ordinary Star Han soldiers, or even the Imperial Guards, would be severely injured if hit by a spear at this distance.

The peacock's attack was once again deflected by the Qing army's strategists.

"Let's work together and get them out of the game!"

At this moment, Chen Gong roared and mobilized all his mental energy to smash it directly towards the Qing army's strategist group.

Both sides had to fire arrows before, so they didn't have time to pinpoint each other's positions. However, this time, the choices made by both sides gave Xinghan's side an opportunity to pinpoint the enemy's position.

Upon locating the Qing army's strategist group, Chen Gong unleashed all his spiritual power without hesitation, ready to explode upon them.

Clearly, once the opposing strategist group loses its fighting capacity, Peacock's attack will inflict an even heavier blow on the enemy.

"Fight!"

As Zhang Liang and his group followed, the Qing army's strategists instantly felt an immense will crashing into them. In an instant, this invisible collision resounded in everyone's hearts.

The outermost protective formation shattered instantly.

The Qing army's strategists' expressions darkened, and without saying a word, they channeled their mental energy to launch a counterattack against Chen Gong and his men.

"You've got some skill! But if that's all you've got, it's not enough!" Chen Gong said with a cold laugh, barely suppressing the turmoil in his internal organs.

"I'll see how many times you can hold out!"

Zhang Liang suppressed the turmoil in his internal organs and stared coldly in the direction of the Qing army's strategist group. The third wave of Peacock's attack was about to land, and this time they would not give the other side any chance to react.

In an instant, the contest between the two sides began, with their strategists pooling all their mental energy, determined to crush the other side.

When it comes to ruthlessness, even top strategists are aware of the consequences. Moreover, under Xinghan's judgment, both they and their opponents lost their fighting ability at the same time, which is also an advantage for Xinghan.

Therefore, given that both sides would suffer heavy losses and that the Xinghan strategists held the advantage, they directly challenged the Qing strategists to a decisive battle.

In order to repel the third wave of attacks from the Peacock Army, the Qing army's strategist group paid a heavy price. Almost all of them collapsed and coughed up blood. Only a few strategists who were left behind to clear the clouds survived.

The situation was almost the same on Xinghan's side; everyone was dizzy and disoriented, with Chen Gong, as the main force, directly bearing the brunt of the damage output.

If Chen Gong hadn't had Mu Yi, his nuclear-powered power source, this kind of confrontation alone would have been enough to kill him.

Even with Mu Yi acting as a nuclear power source, Chen Gong still felt unwell, clutching his head and completely unable to unleash his mental talent.

"Lord Liu, I'm leaving this to you. I can't think right now!" Chen Gong handed the baton directly to Zhang Liang.

Without any intellectual talent, Chen Gong was far from possessing exceptional wisdom and was completely excluded from the ranks of first-rate strategists.

Zhang Liang took the command baton with a dark face. His practical skills were really terrible. He absolutely couldn't show off at a time like this, otherwise he would ruin the army.

"Yang Xiu, you take command! I'm going to wipe out the enemy!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhang Liang unleashed his mental power, striking the Qing army's strategist group. The feeling of mutual destruction caused Zhang Liang to make a gesture towards the Qing army's strategist group while experiencing the impact on his brain, before lying down.

His attempt to kick someone when they're down, while successful, didn't leave him unscathed; he bore the brunt of the counterattack. Yang Xiu was stunned; how could two pillars of support have fallen so easily?

Although he also wanted to show off, he knew when to step up and when to be realistic about his own abilities.

But now that everything has been handed over to him, he feels he has no reason not to step up.

The moment Yang Xiu took over, the Qing army's strategists began their counterattack.

The shaman's disciple took out a memorial tablet and began performing a frantic ritual.

Various ominous curses followed the mental energy markers and hurled directly at the Star River Strategist Group.

As the central link, Yang Xiu was the first to be affected.

But it was as if a gust of wind had blown on his face; Yang Xiu was completely unaffected by these things.

"What is this?"

Yang Xiu casually plucked a black lump from his body, and after sensing the evil energy contained within it, he threw it away immediately.

Yang Xiu's spiritual talent can make him immune to all negative effects of spiritual talents, and can also block various curses and the like.

"Playing dirty?"

Yang Xiu snorted coldly and took out a small figure from his pocket. Not to mention the shaman priests of the Yuezhi, even the Yang family itself had a lot of such secret techniques.

Although Yang Xiu himself didn't study these things in much detail, he could still use them without any problem.

Yang Xiu focused his will on the opposing group of strategists, then picked up an arrow, stacked two of the figures together, and pierced their hearts.

In just a moment, the Qing army's strategists were already experiencing heart palpitations and teetering on the brink of collapse.

Several people who were in poor health suddenly went black and fainted.

After this began, the strategists on both sides, besides providing intelligence analysis through mental links, used secret techniques to harm each other, and then engaged in a pure clash of mental power.

Just as the two strategists were fighting desperately, the fourth wave of arrows from the Peacock Legion arrived.

This time, the strategists had no power to stop it, and the thick, flaming arrows pierced through the Qing soldiers they hit.

Arrows flew past, extending the depth of the Eight Banners cavalry formation. Soldiers on the front that were hit by the attack all fell down like wheat being harvested.

In an instant, the infantry behind the Eight Banners cavalry were like machine guns sweeping through the area. All the sword-and-shield soldiers and spear-and-shield soldiers who thought their defenses were reliable died as soon as they were hit by the Peacock's burst of fire.

Even the Eight Banners cavalry with three talents could not withstand this arrow.

However, most of the Eight Banners cavalry managed to evade, and the Miracle Eight Banners even parried and flew away without suffering any damage.

It was only at this point that the Qing army realized just how terrifying the peacock's destructive power was.

However, this is not the limit of Xinghan.

The Qing army's spear-throwing legion was very effective in suppressing the enemy, causing the Xinghan front to collapse on all sides. Mu Yi was unable to coordinate and reinforce the defense in time. Many times, the defense was just set up when it was already broken down.

Even if the soldiers maintained their fighting spirit, it was the cloud-like aura supporting the battle line that caused them to collapse.

Both sides are like this; without strategists to stabilize the flow of cloud energy and solidify its support, the cloud energy support on both sides' battle lines is easily disrupted by the opponent.

In a normal war, this wouldn't be a big problem, but this is a decisive battle. Mu Yi and Huang Taiji's deployment has greatly disrupted the cloud's blessing, and once it's affected, it's very difficult to restore it.

Both sides revealed several cards in succession, but neither could gain the upper hand, so they temporarily stopped revealing their cards.

The interlocking battle lines fluctuated constantly as Huang Taiji and Mu Yi flexibly mobilized their elite troops to continuously advance, intercept, and even cut off encirclements.

Both sides were trying to preserve their own soldiers while inflicting as many casualties on the enemy as possible.

During the stalemate, a weakness appeared on the front line.

A good opportunity

Huang Taiji immediately seized this opening, unleashing a full-force attack with his spears, coupled with the army's charge.

The double attack pierced through the battle line in an instant and began to approach Mu Yi's direction.

Upon seeing this, Huang Taiji was overjoyed.

He pulled out another trump card, something that wouldn't normally be used as a trump card, but now it came in handy.

Under Huang Taiji's guidance, a talent was fully unleashed, and the thick clouds in the sky were subjected to a tremendous impact, tearing them into pieces resembling fish scales.

Various secret techniques for attacking cloud-like structures can directly break free from the cloud's binding force, but under this absurd suppression of cloud energy, these techniques are ineffective.

Even so, the Qing lancers who crossed the battle line had greatly increased their combat power and rushed swiftly toward Mu Yi.

However, faced with this scene, Mu Yi not only did not panic, but even smiled, a very happy smile. This was exactly the moment he had been waiting for.

With the Qing army's secret attack, the cloud structure was greatly dispersed, directly tearing apart the thick cloud above the battlefield.

Before Huang Taiji could understand what was happening, he saw a dazzling pillar of light rise up.

Then the entire sky seemed to be lifted up by a pillar of light, and the entire cavalry line was enveloped in the pillar of light, turning everything pale white.

Even though the clouds were violently gathering and frantically resisting the legion's attack, the overwhelming force of the First Yellow Heaven Legion's attack directly engulfed the Qing army.

All resistance has an upper limit. Just like the secret technique for destroying clouds, destroying clouds has become a technical skill in the face of a battlefield with millions of elite troops.

Even if the Qing army had the corresponding technology, they could only slightly tear apart the clouds, rather than completely clear them away.

Similarly, a legion's ability to resist attacks from other legions also has an upper limit. Elite legions may be more resistant, but no matter how strong they are, they cannot withstand the crushing force of hundreds or thousands of attacks.

After the cloud energy was released from its suppression, the happiest people were none other than the First Yellow Heaven Legion, whose inner energy could finally be released.

The relentless explosions ceased as Baihe gasped for breath, and at that moment, even the soldiers of Xinghan and Qingting stopped fighting.

The battlefield, spanning over ten miles, fell silent. The terrifying legion's attack, stretching a hundred meters long and firing nearly a hundred shots, was clearly visible throughout the entire battlefield, blurring the lines between friend and foe. (End of Chapter)
