Conquering Myriad Worlds from the Mythical Three Kingdoms

There have always been two types of tank legions.

One type is a talented elite, and the other is a hastily assembled ragtag army.

Even a hastily assembled chariot of miscellaneous soldiers possesses a formidable frontal impact under the cloud of mist; at least, dual-talent heavy infantry cannot withstand it.

Those with talent are even more terrifying; an overweight cavalryman weighs about a ton, while a tank starts at over a ton.

The "Impact Relief" talent is enough for a tank legion to smash through any normal legion.

"They've been driven to a dead end!"

Sun Tzu's face darkened, and then he revealed his trump card. Every military genius has something unique that others don't possess, and Sun Tzu naturally had one as well.

His unparalleled command and control skills were merely his past abilities. Having spent so much time with Han Xin and Bai Qi, how could Sun Tzu not have made any progress?

However, their path of progress is somewhat anti-human. Troublesome things like the Zerg Catastrophe and the Corpse Feast were all created by them. They were severely warned by Mu Yi and Huang Tianji, so they have never really shown them off.

However, this does not mean that they did not conduct research in secret. In terms of misappropriating research funds, these military geniuses were all self-taught.

Sun Tzu's research naturally focused on the system of sacrificial rites left by his good brother Wu Zixu. He improved this system, but the version he released was only a safe version.

Sun Tzu himself even created a real army of corpse-offering ritualists and made it extremely dangerous.

It can be said that they went to two completely opposite extremes. Sun Tzu was generally unwilling to use this rampant version of the sacrificial offering, and most of the time he used it as the Danyang offering.

But at this point, pretending to be dead would really be the death of you.

Even if his life is not in danger, falling twice in the same place is really a disgrace to his reputation as a military genius.

Sun Tzu felt that Han Xin would make fun of him for the rest of his life if Han Xin were to do another one. He had already been tricked once.

Han Xin is no good guy!

Faced with the choice between being lectured and being ridiculed, Sun Tzu decisively chose the former.

No matter what, he's doing this for the country!
Slightly guilty, Sun Tzu arranged his Divine Demon Guards to be of the highest caliber. From the outside, there was nothing wrong with them, but each one was a three-talent soldier who had undergone multiple refinements.

The reason I usually pretend to be from Danyang is because my cooperative talent has reached its limit, achieving the level of cooperation between heaven and earth, and I also have these special effects, so pretending to be an elite Danyang soldier is no problem at all.

In reality, however, they were divine soldiers who received the blessings of heaven and earth through the sacrificial ceremony of offering sacrifices to the dead.

Because it is a rampage version of the Corpse Offering, their penetration of nature is even more astonishing, and they are able to utilize the rules on multiple levels.

To deal with something like this, you'd need at least a five-fold Imperial Guard, three talents, and a military spirit—things that can directly confront nature.

Or to put it more bluntly, miracles, those things that destroy nature, are the real adversaries.

A group of divine and demonic guards faced the charging chariot legion, and with a single wave of their hands, they even overturned the ground.

The entire tank legion was overturned by the continuous shockwaves and its charge was forcibly halted.

From the perspective of restraint, the Corpse Feast actually restrains not the chariot legion, but the existence of all human concepts.

Because their foundation is based on human sacrifice, but for the God of War, this thing is a useful tool that can be used to deal with others.

Speaking of destruction, can't swords and blades kill people?

The idea that feeding on humans will make them the natural enemy of humanity is utter nonsense.

Humanity's greatest adversary will only be itself.

Cannibalism is humanity's greatest enemy.

The ritual of offering sacrifices to the deceased was at most a tool, at least in Sun Tzu's hands it was a tool through and through.

Their three talent effects can be summarized as follows: Harmony of Heaven and Earth, Sacrifice, and Enemy of Humanity.

Although the idealistic concept of the enemy of mankind is abstract, it does have a real effect, and the strong idealism makes people able to restrain mankind.

At this moment, the chariot legion was overturned by the Divine and Demonic Guards. Many chariots collided, and men and horses were thrown about. The Divine and Demonic Guards, acting as infantry, forcibly stopped the chariots from charging.

In subsequent wars, chariots would undoubtedly lose; once they lost their speed, they would suffer even worse fates than cavalry.

Moreover, these divine and demonic guards, as terrifying elites capable of even stopping chariots, unleashed their ultimate combat power under Sun Tzu's command, crushing the Qing army headquarters.

With the full force of the thrust, aided by the power of nature, a sharp shockwave, no less powerful than an arc of light, erupted and swept towards the Qing soldiers on the chariot with terrifying, chaotic airflow.

Such a terrifying attack smashed the tank frame to pieces, blasting the soldiers on it into pieces scattered all over the ground.

The dazzling light, like a wall, enveloped the chariots, threatening to annihilate the entire chariot legion.

The commander of the chariot legion roared, his spear sweeping across the ground. The power of his inner energy, which was at its peak, could only be displayed at the level of Qi Refining to Gang under the clouds. Against the divine and demonic guards, he could not even suppress ordinary soldiers.

The legion commander angrily lunged at the soldiers of the Divine Demon Guard, intending to use his strength to forcibly tear a path through them.

However, the moment he pierced through one of the divine and demonic guards, the opponent transformed into a beam of light and fell upon several soldiers around him.

Several bolts of lightning struck his torso instantly, piercing through the point of impact; even his armor was of no use.

The legion commander coughed up a mouthful of blood, swept his spear across and knocked the divine and demonic guards in front of him to the ground, then withdrew.

His expression was unusually solemn, a mixture of lightning-fast attacks, inexplicable heaviness, and an invisible, intangible sense of repulsion.

He felt as if he were fighting against the entire world, as if everything in the environment was rejecting him, and he even felt that his power had inexplicably weakened.

Moreover, for every Divine and Demonic Guardian who dies on the other side, the morale of nearby soldiers increases by one unit, as if they can fully integrate the power of their fallen comrades.

Even more deadly is that once the enemy's weapon pierces the body of a Qing soldier, the Qing soldier will be drained like a dried corpse and then distributed by the Divine Demon Guards to himself and his other comrades.

The more the battle raged, the more alarmed the Qing army commander became. He felt that the enemy was not human at all, but rather a group of monsters imitating humans.

Even though they look like humans, they are actually more like monsters that feed on humans.

The chariot legion quickly collapsed, and the Divine Demon Guard, with its overwhelming victory, charged towards the Qing infantry behind them.

The Qing dynasty's design was good; the combination of chariots and infantry could significantly disrupt the battle lines. However, once the chariots failed to gain an advantage, the infantry lost all its edge. In fact, the high-speed formation, created to support the chariot legions, became a disadvantage at this point.

They collided head-on with the Divine and Demonic Guards and were immediately driven to the brink of collapse.

At this moment, the opposing commander made a foolish decision, which was to move the infantry to the sides, intending to send out the main force to fight against the Divine Demon Guard.

This move caused a huge flaw to appear in what was originally a relatively stable battle line.

This is a good option for dealing with the Divine Guard alone, but their opponents are not just this one legion.

Sun Tzu deployed Ma Chao, a high-speed assault cavalryman. Although he didn't have the same killing efficiency as the White Horse Cavalry, the Liangzhou Iron Cavalry was invincible against a group of routed infantry.

Even though Sun Tzu had doubts about whether the other side was out of their minds or using a trap, the opportunity was right there in front of them, so even if it was a trap, they had no choice but to charge in.

First, clear a bloody path; we'll deal with the rest later.

When they rushed in, they found it was either a trap or a command error by the enemy. It might be difficult for others to seize this weakness.

However, for Sun Tzu and Ma Chao, this weakness was exactly what they had been prepared for.

Ma Chao seized upon the mistake of alternating battle lines, launching a high-speed assault to exploit the opponent's weakness.

With just one charge, they shattered the retreating infantry corps on the flank, then pursued them relentlessly, taking away more than two thousand men in one fell swoop. They even menacingly circled around and infiltrated behind the Qing army's Iron Pagoda Legion, intending to shatter this powerful legion as well.

However, the other side reacted quickly, with a cavalry force from the Eight Banners charging out and flanking Ma Chao from the opposite direction.

As long as Ma Chao dares to charge forward, the Eight Banners cavalry will instantly cut off Ma Chao's retreat, forming a pincer movement in which they are intertwined.

However, the Liangzhou cavalry still relied on their charging speed. If their rear was cut off and they failed to break through the enemy's army, they might be wiped out by the Qing army.

Although Ma Chao was arrogant, he had no intention of sacrificing his entire army. He could only graze past the Iron Pagoda army under the coercion of the opposing cavalry.

With the arrival of the Qing army's reinforcements, Sun Tzu had no choice but to continue to shrink his defensive line. At this point, his primary task was no longer to intercept the enemy, but to preserve himself as much as possible.

At this point in time, the opposing side will definitely choose to attack from both sides in order to inflict as much damage as possible on Sun Wu.

The Qing army was not a toy made of clay; it also had its own temper and anger.

Sun Tzu, of course, did not give the other side this opportunity. He used the illusionary soldiers of the Crimson Blood Guard to cover the rear, giving the other side no time to buffer. He quickly integrated the front and rear formations into one and then set up an impenetrable defensive formation on the spot.

The opposing force is now two to three times his size, but it will still take a lot of time to defeat him.

This is exactly the time Sun Tzu needed; the more unwilling the other side was to swallow their pride, the greater the final victory they could achieve.

The Qing army's reinforcements have arrived, and Han Xin's troops are also on their way.

Sun Tzu's subsequent steady and methodical performance left the opposing team feeling like they had caught a tiger eating a turtle, with no way to attack.

Sun Tzu's command and dispatch were always a step ahead of theirs. Even Huang Taiji, who dared not show his face, could not match Sun Tzu's speed of dispatch, even if he used dual command to direct two large army groups to launch a pincer attack.

Being caught between a wolf in front and a tiger behind is indeed a difficult problem for ordinary people, but for Sun Tzu, it was simply a matter of punching the wolf and slapping the tiger.

The Qing army did not want to miss this time difference, and Huang Taiji decisively stepped forward. It's true that he was wary of Sun Tzu, but not to the point that he didn't even have the courage to show his face.

He was initially concerned with safety, but now the rewards of killing Sun Tzu are worth the risk.

The massive strangulation army, composed of elite cavalry and infantry on both flanks, naturally extended and encircled Sun Tzu's defensive formation.

Both sides employed extremely simple and brutal tactics. Sun Tzu was determined to fight a defensive battle, while the Qing army planned to break through at multiple points.

Place heavy infantry, heavy cavalry, and spearmen in the center, while placing lancers, scimitar cavalry, and a significant number of spearmen on the flanks.

Both sides focus on one thing: either you break through my formation and I die instantly, or you wait for me to stall for time until reinforcements arrive, then I'll crush you.

Neither side mentioned any other fancy tactics; they were prepared to fight to the death using sheer strength.

The Qing army wants to leave now, and Sun Tzu really doesn't have a good solution, since any rash moves by him would give the enemy an opening.

However, the Qing army was unwilling to leave; they wanted to kill the current Sun Tzu.

Taking down a military genius will make things easier for them later.

Being caught in a crossfire and strangled by three military geniuses was a very difficult situation for the Qing army.

Now that they have the opportunity to kill Sun Tzu, they naturally want to give it a try.

However, in this almost head-on battlefield, the Emperor's Guards held an almost absolute advantage, as they were infantrymen who existed specifically for head-on confrontations.

Moreover, with such a large-scale gathering of imperial guards, they are confident that they will stand firm even in the face of a massive army attack.

Sun Tzu calmly directed the troops, turning the illusionary soldiers into bricks, filling any gaps that appeared with them.

The two sides fought fiercely, and no matter how much fighting power the other side displayed, neither side showed any intention of retreating.

At this point, the super-weighted stepper finally reached his comfort zone.

If the spear breaks, use the horse-slaying sword; if the horse-slaying sword fails, use the ring-pommel sword. If you can exchange injury for life, don't hesitate; if you can exchange life for life, chase after them.

Such frenzied killing, such insane behavior, and the determination to drag an enemy down with them even in death, instilled an uncontrollable fear in ordinary Qing soldiers towards the Overweight Infantry.

In this crazy realization of the future of the super-heavy step, since the concept of life and death has become blurred, they will continue down this path. Fearlessness does not necessarily require experiencing death.

The madness of killing the enemy may not necessarily prevent one from achieving a sublimation of will.

Even if we are trapped deep in enemy lines, even if we are surrounded by spears and lances, we will never run away. No matter what arrows or spears we are facing, even if our opponents are fully prepared, we will still cut them down.

The Qing army launched a frenzied attack, displaying a madness that seemed determined to tear Sun Tzu's army formation apart from several points of attack, regardless of the cost.

Sun Tzu commanded the army and predicted Huang Taiji's location. Huang Taiji wanted to kill him, and Sun Tzu also wanted to kill Huang Taiji.

Once the enemy's location is found, Sun Wu will absolutely not hesitate to order the clearing of that area. (End of Chapter)
