At this moment, the entire battlefield was deathly silent. Li Luo could even see that on the high platform opposite, Xiong Kui's eyes were wide open in rage. Looking over, he spat out a mouthful of purple blood.
Li Luo couldn't help but twitch his lips, thinking that it was right to feel heartache. A full 6 thousand elite cavalry were blown into pieces. There were more than double of that number who were heavily injured. Among them was a group of two thousand elite Wind Chaser Cavalry from Blazing Flame Mountain. No matter how shrewd a person was, they would probably lose their composure and die of heartache.
"300 three arm spiritual crossbows, the prince is really generous! I really admire you … "
He didn't praise Zong Shou's methods and arrangements, but he only admired his 300 three arm spiritual crossbows. He had decided that Zong Shou was just being rich, using money to suppress people.
300 three arm spiritual crossbows, a full 150 grade 4 wind flame explosive arrows, a full 10 grade 7 beast crystals invested. If it was any power in Donglin Cloud Continent, any army would suffer a huge loss.
When Zong Shou heard that, he didn't care and laughed. So what if he used money to suppress people? It was okay as long as he could win, he was too lazy to care so much.
At this time, Shi Dan also opened her eyes and carefully looked at the deep pit. She then let out a sigh of relief, "I wonder how many more Fiery Wind Arrows the Crown Prince has?" Her eyes were filled with hope. As long as the number exceeded three thousand, the victory of this battle would be assured. As long as there were 600, they could at least retreat safely.
Zong Shou was still controlling the black copper mirror in front of him. When he heard that, he mocked himself, "How many of these grade 4 spiritual arrows are there in the world? Even with the strength of Kongqi Sect, they were only able to craft a thousand in these few years. I can only buy 2/5 of their treasury. "
Shi Dan's face couldn't help but turn bitter. 2/5 of a thousand meant that there were only 400. Before this, they had already used close to half.
They were most probably going to lose today's battle. Don't look at how majestic those 3 thousand Xuan Mountain City cavalry were. Almost all of the two thousand tigers and leopards were slaughtered, and the fifty thousand cavalrymen were scattered. However, these people would eventually be exhausted in the face of an enemy that was a hundred times their number. There would always be a time when the horses would be tired.
Previously, Yang Xuan had been careless and underestimated his opponent. That was why he had personally sought out Zong Shou, who was controlling Zong Yuan from afar. The death of their commander shook the entire army. At this moment, the enemy generals were all on guard. Using three thousand cavalry to charge at the orderly infantry was no different from courting death.
Even the enemy in front of him was not easy to deal with. After suffering such a huge loss, there was no way he would let Zong Shou succeed again.
As expected, after a short while, those tens of thousands of Blazing Flame Mountain cavalry that could still fight had already started to spur their horses once again. At this time, they were no longer gathered in one place. Instead, they were separated into hundreds of groups, surrounding the chariot formation, and from time to time, they would try to charge in.
At this moment, even Li Luo was slightly shaking his head, not optimistic. The soldiers were elite, and the generals were wise and farsighted. Such an enemy was the hardest to fight, and there were no weaknesses to be found. He really couldn't think of any chance that Zong Shou had of winning.
When Zong Shou saw the situation, he squinted his eyes and laughed, "You are so worried? A weak and powerless giant sometimes might not be able to beat a strong and powerful lion. Why don't we make a bet? I think that today's battle might shock the Cloud Continent and become a legend. Three thousand cavalry trampling over a thousand troops. I really didn't expect that my servant would have such pride … "
When he said those words, the thirty-five thousand cavalry of Blazing Flame Mountain all drew their bows. As they galloped, they nocked their arrows ten thousand feet out and swiftly shot. Only to hear a loud "Hong", numerous bowstring noises gathered into one. Following which, the sky was filled with the sharp whistling of arrows. A full thirty-five thousand arrows shot over like a black cloud.
It caused the five hundred iron tiger halberd warriors and the thousand Xuan Mountain City soldiers to hide in the carriage. Following which, there was a series of "dong dong" sounds. The outer shell of the carriage was made of steel, and arrows couldn't pierce through.
Li Luo's two blades spread out, jumping into mid-air. His blade aura spun and swept away all the arrows and wind energy that shot into the area.
Shi Dan sighed and shook her head. Zong Shou was well prepared, but what he said just now wasn't convincing at all.
Luckily, the Blazing Flame Mountain cavalry outside didn't dare to charge at the carriage formation. They tried a few times, but they all returned empty-handed. There weren't many wind flame explosive arrows, but Zong Shou bought many grade one and two spiritual arrows. The three arm spiritual crossbow itself was a strong killing weapon. Tens of giant crossbows firing could defend against a thousand people.
Shi Dan was slightly at ease and didn't pay attention to it anymore. Along with Li Luo, she once again looked at the intense battle ten miles away. However, the scene that entered everyone's eyes caused them to be slightly shocked.
Only to see that there were large amounts of arrows covering the clouds and the sun. In front of the hundred thousand troops, there were many arrow shafts stuck in. However, the three thousand mysterious armor cavalry behind Zong Yuan didn't suffer any losses. They only charged back and forth in front of the army. Pretty much each time, they would be able to draw out an arrow rain. They could predict where the arrows would land, swiftly avoiding and weaving in and out of the arrow rain. Those three thousand Xuan Mountain cavalry seemed to have totally adapted to Zong Yuan's rhythm. Along with him being fast and full. Suddenly charging and suddenly changing directions.
As for the Yunxia Mountain archers hidden behind the tens of square formations, they also showed signs of exhaustion. Normal martial cultivators, at most ten arrows from a five thousand kilogram bow would use up all their energy. The moment they exceeded twenty arrows, their arm muscles would definitely break. Mythic masters could draw ten thousand kilogram bows, their stamina was slightly stronger, but there was a limit to it.
In just fifteen minutes, the arrows had become sparse. Li Luo and Shi Dan couldn't help but exchange glances with one another. They knew that the Yunxia Mountain archers didn't use up all their strength, but were saving it. However, to force them to such an extent, how did this Zong Shou do it?
Exchanging glances with one another, the two of them looked over once more. This time, they didn't dare to be distracted. They knew that the most dangerous and crucial moment had just arrived.
At this moment, within a square formation on the right of the crescent moon formation, Mu Ling's head was covered in cold sweat. His eyes were wide open as he looked forward once more. Those mysterious armor cavalry who were calm and unruffled, actually stopping twenty thousand feet away and saving up their horsepower once more.
He couldn't help but be nervous, but he also couldn't be fully focused. He was ranked ninth in Xuan Mountain City, just below Yang Xuan. He didn't like the Tiger Leopard Cavalry Commander who was so arrogant every day. When he heard the news of this person's death, he gloated in his misfortune. Underestimating the enemy and being careless resulted in such an outcome. To think that this person called himself a famous general, but he died in the hands of a Xuanwu ancestor junior.
However, until 15 minutes ago, just as he thought that he had paid enough attention, did he realize that he had underestimated the enemy. The direction that this Zong Yuan chose each time was coincidentally the weakest point of the crescent moon formation, the easiest to break through.
That surging over, sharp and unstoppable aura seemed like it could pierce through their crescent moon formation in one strike.
He knew that their formation was thick and he also knew that the enemy only had so few men. However, at this moment, he had a feeling.
Like his hundreds of thousands of troops could only stay on the ground, shrinking their heads and forming up into a formation to defend themselves, big but useless. The enemy's three thousand iron cavalry were like eagles in the sky, waiting for a good chance. Occasionally, they would glide down and scare them, stimulating their nerves. They were extremely nimble and shockingly sharp.
He was originally a calm and steady person, but he couldn't help but order the archers in the army to shoot tens of arrows to break the enemy's charge. On the side of the other comrade, Xie Nu, the situation was similar.
At this moment, the archers hiding behind the array were no longer able to provide him with any assistance.
Just as her nerves were tensed up, in the next moment, her pupils constricted. The leader of the red-armored knights moved once again!
At this moment, Zong Yuan's heart was so calm that it was like an ancient well with no ripples. From the confusion he had when he first charged and turned back, he went all out to analyze and think. At this moment, he could pretty much understand each direction Zong Shou changed and his intentions each time he turned back. Even the direction and angle that Zong Shou chose to charge at was the same as what he predicted. Between them, it was like their hearts were connected, and they were extremely compatible.
In fact, he had vaguely had these feelings and thoughts when he was on the battlefield before. He could sense the weakness of the enemy and predict the changes in the enemy formation. However, it had never been as clear as today, like that layer had been directly broken by Zong Shou!
At this moment, he understood in his heart. He knew that the true charge, the true intense battle, was just about to begin!
Riding the dragon horned winged horse under him, he slowly advanced forwards. When he was a thousand feet away from the enemy, he still didn't see any arrows shooting over. A bright light flashed in Zong Yuan's eyes, and he suddenly increased his speed.
Only to see that in front of him was a spear forest. Closely packed five-foot spears formed into rows of spear walls. Numerous cold blade glows shone brightly.
Zong Yuan didn't hesitate, charging forwards. When he was a hundred feet away, Zong Yuan raised his spear up high.
"Purple lightning spear, earth moving berserk lightning!"
The yellow pearl on the spear edge was another ball of essence energy that flowed into his body. Then, a vast ball of lightning suddenly rushed into the ground. In an instant, it swam dozens of feet away before suddenly exploding and exploding. The tens of spear-wielding soldiers above were instantly lifted up high. The entire orderly spear forest was in chaos, and a small gap appeared.
Zong Yuan didn't hesitate as he charged in. He knew that at this position, the spear forest formation wasn't as tight as it looked on the outside. He also knew how to swiftly break through this square formation.
At this moment, following closely behind him were Tan Tao and Hu Zhongyuan, as well as the mysterious armor wind dragon cavalry, ten martial ancestor experts! Pretty much at the same time. Once again widening the gap in the spear formation. Three thousand iron cavalry were like an iron current as they all stepped into the formation.
The extremely strong impact instantly caused numerous people to fly away. Sixteen thousand iron hooves, in just ten breaths, crushed this five thousand man square formation! (To be continued.
