At this moment, all the Celestial Wolf Cavalry and Turkic cavalry, including Duwusili, were looking in the same direction. The darkness was quiet as if nothing had happened, but an air of unease pervaded the air. Everyone knew that in that direction, at the limits of their vision, the illustrious and dreadful Tang Dynasty cavalry were galloping toward them.
Rumble! A faint tremor could be heard in the distance, and then it grew stronger and stronger. In the blink of an eye, a tsunami of tremors had arrived. Even the ground beneath Duwu Sili's feet began to hum and tremble.
"They're here!"
A Western Turkic general suddenly called out.
There was no need for him to say anything more. On the horizon in the direction of the City of Talas, a black flood of steel was galloping toward them. At the very front of this army was a massive dragon banner of the Tang Dynasty, an awe-inspiring sight to behold.
The Tang Dynasty of the Central Plains!
This was not the first time the Western Turks had heard of this name, nor was it the first time they had fought it. Before today, they had viewed this name with some disdain. But after witnessing the Tang Dynasty's reversal in the Battle of Talas and sweeping away Abu Muslim and the Arab army, all of them felt a deep apprehension and shock.
In everyone's hearts, these four words had a completely different weight compared to before.
"Shamshak, Chekun Benba, hear my order! Prepare for battle!"
Duwusili suddenly said as he looked into the distance.
"Yes, Milord!"
The two of them bowed and replied. Shamshak's eyes were bursting with an intense desire to fight.
"Milord, be at ease. This general will do his utmost!"
Shamshak said.
Shamshak had lost all face in his battle with the Wushang cavalry. Although the matter was over, Shamshak still felt an extraordinary humiliation, and he was constantly thinking about how to wipe away this disgrace.
Time passed slowly, and the atmosphere became more and more solemn. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Wang Chong and the five thousand Wushang cavalry approached at an astonishing speed. Eight thousand zhang, six thousand zhang, four thousand zhang, two thousand zhang … Wang Chong finally stopped.
The two armies stared at each other from a distance, the air extremely tense. In the Turkic camp, countless green wolves bared their teeth and assumed offensive stances. But the Western Turkic elites were even more nervous. All of them were focused, their bodies tense, and even their hands that tightly gripped their weapons were drenched in cold sweat.
After seeing the Tang Dynasty sweep through the Arabs with ease, all of them felt a deep fear of the Tang people of Talas. In contrast, the five thousand Wushang cavalry led by Wang Chong appeared much calmer.
"Great General, have you considered my proposal?"
Still ten-thousand-some zhang away, Wang Chong rode forward on his White-hoofed Shadow and got straight to the point. His sharp voice cut through the darkness like a sharp blade, shattering the silence between the two armies.
"Hmph!"
Duwusili angrily glared at the distant Wang Chong and raised his halberd as he rode forward.
"Brat! I have no idea what you're talking about, but I do know one thing. For you to dare to personally come to my door, you truly don't know the meaning of death. You managed to escape last time, but this time, I'd like to see just who will come to your rescue! "
As he spoke, Duwusili's eyes exploded with killing intent.
Wang Chong wasn't strong enough, but he was full of schemes and schemes. His Godking Yama was only at the early Great General level, but it was actually able to block the attack of a peak Great General. If word of this got out, he would lose all face. Although he was going for the formation phenomena, Duwusili didn't mind killing Wang Chong.
"Hahaha …"
When he heard Duwusili's words, Wang Chong grinned. Not only was he not afraid, he even took a few steps forward.
"Since that's the case, why don't you give it a try, Great General?"
"Impudence!"
Duwusili's pupils constricted as he flew into a rage. Boom! There was a flash of light, and just when everyone was still immersed in the 'pleasantries' between the two commanders, subconsciously thinking that the two would not fight, there was an earth-shattering boom as Duwusili suddenly became one with his horse, instantly using the Celestial Wolf's Divine Procession. With an earth-shattering boom, he suddenly transformed into a black rainbow that 'collided' with Wang Chong.
The power of this attack was extremely terrifying. Where Duwusili sat on his horse, the black halberd sliced through the air like water, and the enormous power even caused the air within a radius of several dozen zhang to distort, as if it was connected to the abyss of hell appeared.
And even more shocking was that because the destructive power contained in the halberd was too terrifying, everywhere Duwusili passed, the earth seemed to be plowed apart by an invisible iron plow. Countless rocks and soil fragments shot in all directions, leaving deep dents in the ground.
"Great General!"
This halberd attack was so sudden that even Shamshak and Chekun Benba, who were in the rear, jumped in fright. By the time they reacted, Duwusili had already charged in front of the Tang people's army, and that earth-shattering attack was already smashing towards Wang Chong.
"Marquis!"
"Not good!"
The Wushang cavalry behind Wang Chong were also stunned. No one had expected Duwusili to use this sort of method to launch an attack.
But at this moment, the least surprised was Wang Chong.
Wang Chong faintly smiled as he swiftly attacked.
"Boom!"
The earth quaked and winds howled as Wang Chong activated the Godking Yama Formation and slammed it against Duwusili. In a flash, the entire world seemed to have been torn asunder, the massive boom causing the tens of thousands of Western Turks and Wushang Cavalry to cover their ears and retreat.
A fierce sandstorm swept through the world, and with a cold snort, Wang Chong's Godking Yama firmly stood his ground. As for Duwusili, he slid back some distance, but he quickly steadied himself in the air.
Silence!
The entire battlefield was eerily still.
Everyone's hearts were in their throats. Everything had happened too quickly, and before anyone could react, the battle was over. Once one reached the level of Wang Chong and Duwusili, many warriors could only look up to them. As for the specifics, no one except Wang Chong and Duwusili knew.
"This foul brat!"
Duwu Sili, seated on his black steed, floated in the air, a vicious killing intent in his eyes. He appeared calm on the surface, but his mind was in turmoil. Only he knew what had just happened. There was no doubt that Duwusili was one of the strongest Imperial Great Generals in the world. Although he was still lacking compared to the Governor of Iron and Blood, there was no question that he was far superior to Wang Chong.
But Duwusili's full-strength attack had been forcibly blocked by Wang Chong, and he had done it without using any technique. It was the same Godking Yama, but in just a single day, the difference in power was like the difference between the heavens and the earth.
"Just what happened? How did this brat get so strong in such a short time! "
Duwu Sili's knuckles cracked, not daring to believe it.
In that attack just now, he had used the Celestial Wolf's Divine Procession, allowing his body to float in the air. Unlike Wang Chong, he had been at a disadvantage. But there was no doubt that Wang Chong's strength had increased so much that he could stand on equal footing with him.
To Duwusili, this was unacceptable.
He could not accept being on equal footing with a nobody of the younger generation!
"How about it? Duwusili, do you want to do it again? "
While Duwusili was feeling apprehensive, Wang Chong spoke. His expression was carefree and natural, showing no fear even in the face of a top-class Imperial Great General like Duwusili. After absorbing all the energy of Ghareeb Hassam, Wang Chong's strength had soared to an astonishing level. He had truly reached the Brigadier General level and was only a thin line away from the Great General level.
With Wang Chong's current strength, one could easily imagine the power of the Godking Yama Formation.
"Bastard thing, do you really think that I can't kill you!"
Duwu Sili swung his black halberd horizontally, and a powerful killing intent surged out of him like a tide, twisting the space in a radius of several dozen zhang. From a distance, it was a sight to behold.
"Duwusili, I know that you kidnapped my people, so hand them over! If he loses a single hair, you know what I'll do. "
Wang Chong pretended not to hear. He looked at Duwusili and spoke in a flat tone, but his voice was suffused with a thick threat.
In any negotiation, strength was the most fundamental cornerstone.
At the start, Wang Chong did not have the right to negotiate in Duwusili's eyes. But after this clash, Wang Chong had amply displayed his strength, giving him the right to negotiate with Duwusili on equal footing!
In the howling winds, both the Western Turks and the Wushang cavalry were looking at their commander. All of them understood that whether this was war or peace depended entirely on this conversation. Even though this moment was calm and tranquil, the next moment could be an extremely bitter battle.
The atmosphere was tense.
"Watch my gesture! If the situation looks bad, Milord will give us a signal to attack! "
Shamshak suddenly whispered.
"Mm."
Chekun Benba also nodded, both of them staring at Duwusili's right palm. After following Duwusili for so long, the two of them had come to understand that Duwusili had some special habits. He would never give an obvious order to attack, but would make a special gesture before the attack. When the Celestial Wolf Cavalry attacked, they would definitely catch the enemy off guard.
