Dragon Ball, simultaneously traversing countless worlds

Without horses, infantrymen were at a great disadvantage when facing attacks from Liao and Jin cavalry. The enemy could easily break through the infantry's formation with just a few charges, and then after several waves of attacks, the infantrymen would be routed.

It was precisely because they recognized the importance of cavalry that Gao Tuoshan and the other two rebel kings made a deal with the Jin army, exchanging their victory over Luo Yan for the Jin's warhorses.

Gao Tuoshan spurred his horse and galloped away. He saw the city gate in the distance suddenly open, and pairs of armored soldiers filed out. He suddenly burst into laughter.

The adjutant beside Gao Tuoshan asked curiously, "Why is Your Majesty laughing?"

Gao Tuoshan raised his whip and said, "Daming Prefecture is a high and dangerous city with wide moats and deep trenches. I laugh at Luo Yan for not defending such a strong city and instead opening the city gates to fight us. He is only courting death."

Although the Iron Eagle Warriors' gleaming armor made them look very imposing and intimidating.

However, Gao Tuoshan was unaware of the power of the mechs. In his ignorance, he mistook the Iron Eagle Warriors' mechs for Song Dynasty infantry armor. Although he was surprised by the superior armor of Luo Yan's army, he did not take it seriously.

He had 20,000 men fighting against 1,000 soldiers dressed in infantry armor; they were exhausted to death.

Although the infantry armor offers strong defense, its weight of nearly 30 kilograms means that even a strongman could only fight for a short time while wearing it.

Once we've killed a thousand people, Daming Prefecture will be ours for the taking.

Chapter 215 An Overwhelming Battle

The mech that Luo Yan created, modeled after the Iron Patriot, has undergone two optimizations and upgrades, and its performance is now quite different from the original Marvel Iron Patriot.

First and foremost is flexibility. Since the mortals in this world are not very powerful, the mechs, which are mainly responsible for suppressing the mortal army, do not need to maintain such high defensive capabilities.

In terms of hardware, Luo Yan reduced the thickness of the mecha's alloy and added bionic joints and liquid metal repair kits, which greatly increased the mecha's flexibility and gave it additional self-repair capabilities.

After the mech is damaged in battle, the liquid metal repair kit will automatically replace the damaged parts, allowing the mech to continue to be used normally.

The weapons, including laser cannons, high-frequency swords, ex-wife missiles, and deep-sea torpedoes, remain unchanged.

In terms of software, Luo Yan designed a positive neural sensing system to replace the mecha's own intelligent program.

The previous system of mechs controlling humans in battle has been replaced by humans controlling mechs.

Intelligent programs controlling mechs in combat make soldiers feel like bystanders, and such combat obviously cannot cultivate soldiers' combat awareness.

By removing the intelligent program and replacing it with a positive neural sensing system to interact with the mech, the soldiers felt a sense of unity between themselves and the mech, where the mech moved as the soldier thought.

Due to these significant changes, the new mecha was no longer named Patriot Mecha by Luo Yan, but was renamed Halo Mecha.

Because of these changes, the mech has become similar to the Mjolnir Power Assault Armor in the Halo game.

A thousand Iron Eagle Warriors, clad in black-painted halo mechs, ran across the land.

With the aid of bionic joints and mechanical transmission structures, each person is like a lithe lion. The aesthetics of mechanics and biology are combined, and people are deeply mesmerized just by watching the mecha warriors run.

Their stomping on the earth created a thunderous roar; the momentum of a thousand people running was like a black tide engulfing the entire land.

The horse beneath Gao Tuoshan stopped in terror, rearing up and neighing. Even when Gao Tuoshan fiercely stabbed the horse's rump with his sword, he could not make the warhorse move forward another step.

Animals are more sensitive to danger than humans, and the overwhelming momentum of the Iron Eagle Warriors only inspires fear in humans.

For the animals, it was like an irresistible natural disaster, making them instinctively unwilling to approach it.

Gao Tuoshan angrily dismounted and ordered his army to stop on the high ground of the hillside, intending to launch a positional battle from a superior vantage point.

He then ordered the shield bearers to advance, and the archers fired arrows at the Iron Eagle Warriors to halt their advance.

A dense rain of arrows fell from the sky, striking the Iron Eagle Warriors' mechs with clanging sounds.

Wu Ying's golden mask covered his eyes, mouth, and nose, obscuring his expression.

Faced with a swarm of arrows, Wu Ying simply used his high-frequency sword to continuously slash, preventing the arrows from getting close.

He was showing off; he could have ignored the rain of arrows and let them fall on his mech.

However, Wu Ying still used his sword to sweep away the arrows, demonstrating his bravery and strength.

His actions immediately caught the attention of Gao Tuoshan on the hillside. He personally retrieved an iron-rimmed bow, nocked an arrow, and shot it at Wu Ying's mask.

The bowstring snapped crisply, and the arrow shot towards Wu Ying like a black line.

Gao Tuoshan fired an arrow with boundless confidence. In his youth, he was renowned for his bravery and skill in archery, which was comparable to that of the Jurchens.

Furthermore, the arrows he shot were like chisels of gold, capable of piercing through armor and killing enemy generals with minimal effort once they hit their target.

Gao Tuoshan seemed to already see the scene of Wu Ying's mask being broken by him, the arrow piercing the enemy's head, and his majestic body falling to the ground.

He was even prepared to accept the compliments from his subordinates.

But Wu Ying's actions the next second caused his expression to change drastically.

Faced with arrows that are as black as a shadow and invisible, Wu Ying can accurately capture the trajectory of the arrows like an eagle, relying on the visual sensors on his mask.

With a thought, he reached out and caught the flying arrow.

He held the arrow shaft in his hand, the feathers swaying constantly. Wu Ying then squeezed it, breaking the arrow in two, and made a provocative fist gesture towards Gao Tuoshan.

In ancient times, catching an arrow flying towards oneself was as difficult as catching a bullet with one's bare hands in modern times—a truly unbelievable feat.

The initial velocity of a bullet is about the same as the speed of sound, while the initial velocity of an ordinary arrow can reach a quarter of the speed of a bullet, which is about 80 meters per second.

The iron-framed bow used by Gao Tuoshan had a much stronger drawstring than ordinary bows, and the initial velocity of the arrows shot could reach almost 100 meters per second.

He and Wu Ying were only about two hundred meters apart. When the bowstring twanged, Wu Ying should have fallen to the ground, but unexpectedly he caught the arrow with his bare hands, which shocked Gao Tuoshan.

Recovering from his shock, Gao Tuoshan realized that Wu Ying was an absolutely formidable general, and that if he were to charge into the enemy lines, his army would be utterly crushed.

Gao Tuoshan panicked and hurriedly ordered the archers to fire at Wu Ying: "Kill! Aim at the leading general and shoot him dead!"

Hundreds of archers drew their bows, aimed at the eagle, and fired arrows one after another.

Wu Ying once again swung his high-frequency sword, knocking away the weak and feeble arrows, and shouted to his companions, "The opportunity to make a name for yourself is right before us! Follow me and fight!"

"kill!"

Thousands of shouts converged, stirring up the wind and clouds, and dimming the heavens and earth.

A dark cloud followed the Iron Eagle Warriors, spreading wherever they went, keeping them constantly in a gloomy shadow.

This isn't a movie special effect from "Kung Fu Hustle," but rather a scene from a world where the laws of nature exist, and the heavens and earth are filled with malevolent energy.

Basically, whenever war breaks out in the human world, the overwhelming evil energy will accumulate into dark clouds, creating the effect in "Kung Fu Hustle" where dark clouds follow wherever the Axe Gang goes.

However, Gao Tuoshan and his men did not understand the reason behind it. Looking at the dark clouds above the Iron Eagle Warriors' heads, they felt their hair stand on end and their hearts pound like drums.

The Iron Eagle Warriors drew closer and closer. The two sides were only about two hundred meters apart to begin with, and with the assistance of the power mechs, the Iron Eagle Warriors rushed to the front of Gaotuo Mountain's camp in just a few seconds.

"Hold your ground! Shieldbearers, hold your ground! Spearmen, hold off the charge!"

Gao Tuoshan roared, watching the Iron Eagle Warriors rushing up from the foot of the hillside, and felt his palms sweating.

Looking at those Iron Eagle Warriors from a distance, they seemed no different from the infantry legions of the Song Dynasty—imposing, but not particularly frightening.

But when the Iron Eagle Warriors were less than ten meters away from them, their terrifying, unstoppable charge and the oppressive force of their steel torrent were almost suffocating.

boom!

The two armies' formations finally clashed violently.

Gao Tuoshan did not see the scene of spears piercing through the enemy's corpses and hanging them on the shield wall.

His meticulously arranged iron shield formation was torn apart by the Iron Eagle Warriors in an instant, as if it were made of paper.

The Iron Eagle Warriors, clad in armor weighing hundreds of kilograms, rammed their chests into the spears protruding from between the shields, bending the spearheads. Then they kicked over the iron shields, paving the way for the shield-bearers.

Armed with massive shields, the Iron Shield Soldiers, crouching on the ground, were mercilessly crushed like trucks. More than a thousand Iron Eagle Warriors, each weighing hundreds of kilograms, trampled them to death.

The ease and grace with which the Iron Eagle Warriors broke through the iron shield formation greatly shocked Gao Tuoshan.

But the fighting prowess displayed by the Iron Eagle Warriors after they raised their knives terrified Gao Tuoshan, making him want to turn and run away.

The high-frequency vibrating high-frequency sword is the most powerful divine weapon in the mortal world. When the Iron Eagle Warriors wield the high-frequency sword, they can split a person in two from the top of their head with a single strike.

Even if the opponent is holding a shield and wearing iron armor, it's as easy to break them apart as breaking tofu.

The Iron Eagle Warriors' battle wasn't a battle at all; they were just chopping vegetables.

The 20,000 elite troops of Gaotuo Mountain were like fresh cabbages in a vegetable garden, which were quickly cut down by a group of unruly children wielding swords.

In just a dozen seconds, over a thousand of Gao Tuoshan's troops were killed.

Blood pooled on the ground, forming puddles, and countless severed limbs lay scattered about.

The soldiers who were not caught in the meat grinder were terrified at the sight and screamed, trying to escape.

The supervising soldiers, watching the Iron Eagle Warriors cutting through the enemy like vegetables, felt their hands and feet turn cold. They had forgotten their duties and wished they could leave this place with the deserters.

In ancient times, if an army suffered one-tenth of its casualties, the army would collapse.

Although Gao Tuoshan's soldiers were touted as elite, they were actually a ragtag force composed of refugees and bandits.

Let alone casualties exceeding one-tenth, their morale would waver as soon as they were at a disadvantage after the battle began. Seeing the terrifying combat power of the Iron Eagle Warriors, they couldn't even last a minute before some began to flee.

The soldiers wanted to escape, and the supervising soldiers wanted to escape as well. As for Gao Tuoshan, seeing that the Iron Eagle Warriors were invulnerable to swords and spears and were killing indiscriminately, he spurred his horse and galloped away to save his own life.

Chapter 216 Great Victory

—Dragon Ball: Simultaneously Traveling Through Countless Worlds, Chapter 216: Great Victory

In the battle against Gaotuo Mountain, Wu Ying was the first to rush up the hillside, kicking over the iron shield soldiers. He was also the first to raise his knife against the soldiers of Gaotuo Mountain.

Wu Ying was a refugee in a chaotic world. He had lived a hard life since childhood. During his wandering, he had many disputes with people. In order to protect his food, he even killed an adult with his own hands.

He was ruthless and belligerent, and had no qualms about killing.

Even when facing the black python, he dared to rush forward to block Luo Yan's attack, which shows his bravery.

When he kicked the enemy's iron shield, denting it and causing the soldier behind it to cough up blood, the ferocity within him was fully unleashed.

His bloodlust, like a demon, drove him to kill insanely.

Each strike of the high-frequency sword would tear the enemy before him to pieces.

The blade sliced ​​through the enemy's muscles as if cutting through fat with a hot knife.

Cutting the soldiers' bones is like harvesting grass with a sickle.

Wu Ying never knew that killing was such a simple thing.

The enemies before them seemed like scarecrows; they could easily take their lives with a single, swift stroke of their blades.

He loved this feeling, charging forward while brandishing his high-frequency sword, recklessly focusing on the front lines.
