Boom!
A moment later, there was an earth-shattering boom, and everyone was thrown off their feet. As everyone watched, the four thousand Divine Prison Army soldiers stabbed forward like a giant sword.
Boomboomboom! Before anyone could even see how the Divine Prison Army had attacked, they saw row after row of elite Arab cavalry being cut down like weeds.
Their corpses were riddled with holes, and countless small holes could be seen. The Divine Prison Army soldiers didn't even look at them. They just brushed past them and quickly headed for the Divine Martial Army and the Blood Beast Legion.
Bangbangbang! As they passed, the motionless Arab horsemen behind them were suddenly cut into countless pieces and dropped to the ground.
In the blink of an eye, seven to eight thousand Arab horsemen had been reduced to pulp.
As for the four thousand Divine Prison Army soldiers, they said nothing as they rapidly advanced under everyone's horrified gazes. In this intense battle, they were not only not slowed down, they were actually getting faster and faster.
No matter what kind of soldiers they used or how many Arab cavalry stood in their way, they would all be cut down like pieces of paper at their feet.
"What kind of soldier is this?"
Even Osman, Ziyad, and Aybak grimaced at this sight. Although these hundreds of thousands of Arab soldiers were not existences on the level of the Blood Beast Army or the Beheader Army, they were still no ordinary elites.
In a normal battle, no matter how formidable their opponents were, they would not be able to easily kill them. Not even the Blood Beast Army or the Beheader Army could do this. But though this Tang Dynasty army was small in number, the fighting power they displayed was enough to make anyone else pale in comparison.
Countless battle-hardened and formidable Great Tang elites had been cut down as easily as melons and vegetables in front of them.
"I underestimated them. I need to revise my previous judgment. I'm afraid this Eastern Empire is much more powerful than what we said before! "
Aybak said.
All was quiet beneath the four black war banners. At this moment, no one dared to treat this eastern kingdom as some insignificant kingdom. There was no question that this army of Talas was an existence worthy of all their strength. Even the powerful Arabia could not treat it lightly.
"But the more it's like this, the more interesting it is! Compared to the remnants of the Sassanid Dynasty and other weak civilizations, destroying this kind of country is much more satisfying! I feel like I can't wait any longer! "
Aybak licked his lips, a savage smile on his face. He turned his gaze to the dense ranks of Wushang Cavalry behind Wang Chong.
"Are they still not going to make a move? These soldiers are already so powerful. I really wonder just how powerful the Wushang Cavalry Abu Muslim speaks of are. "
In the distance, on the frontmost battlefield, the battle between the Divine Martial Army and the Blood Beast Army was at its most intense. Clang! A long dark red scimitar, weighing forty to forty jin, slashed down with unstoppable force. As the scimitar swept past, it emitted a shuddering sound as if it could even cleave through steel. But then, boom! Sparks flew everywhere as a long heavy sword slashed out and collided with the dark red scimitar, producing an earth-shattering explosion!
The sword-wielding Divine Martial Army soldier's feet sank, but the Blood Beast Army soldier's armor also began to creak. One side had a cold and expressionless expression, while the other was as malevolent as a giant beast. The Divine Martial Army had a slight advantage in terms of strength, combat techniques, and combat experience. However, they still couldn't avoid the numerical disadvantage.
More and more Blood Beast Army soldiers began to gather around the Divine Martial Army. Each soldier of the Divine Martial Army was slowly being attacked by two or even more Blood Beast Army soldiers. Although they remained calm and showed no sign of panic or retreat, it was clear that they were slowly falling into a disadvantage.
Qu Di had brought the entire Blood Beast Army while Geshu Han had only sent a portion of the Divine Martial Army.
"Buzz!"
A soldier of the Divine Martial Army brandished his Big Dipper Greatsword to the limit, charging left and right, gradually falling into a tight encirclement. At this moment, two dark red scimitars, each weighing seventy to eighty kilograms, slashed at a Divine Martial Army soldier from two different directions. Squelch! There was a flash of blood as a sword pierced through a chink in the armor of the Blood Beast Army soldier, impaling him from the front to the back.
Pfff! At almost the same time, a second sword flew through the air. This sword was pointed diagonally and instantly pierced through the neck of a Blood Beast Army soldier. His movements were direct and efficient, without the slightest bit of finesse. Everything was done with the sole purpose of killing his opponent. Swish! The longsword slashed horizontally, and the head of a Blood Beast Army soldier flew high into the air. The headless corpse swayed a few times, and then spat out a mouthful of blood before collapsing to the ground.
The Divine Prison Army soldier withdrew his sword, stepped over the corpse, and emotionlessly advanced toward the second Blood Beast Army soldier. Behind him, two, three, four … a total of four thousand fully armed Divine Prison Army soldiers strode toward the sea of Blood Beast Army soldiers with cold and resolute determination.
Unlike Geshu Han's Divine Martial Army, these Divine Prison Army soldiers were all pale and bloodless, but the killing intent they exuded was far stronger than that of the Divine Martial Army. Squelch! Another sword stabbed forward. The Blood Beast Army soldiers could clearly see the sword, but they couldn't stop it. They could only watch as the sword pierced through their bodies and then fell to the ground.
One, two, three, four … The Divine Incarcerate Army soldiers kept advancing. Their techniques weren't all that complicated, but the speed at which they drew their swords was incredible. Even though the Blood Beast Army soldiers were doing their utmost to stop them, the slightest difference in speed was like the difference between the heavens and the earth.
Any soldier that reached the level of the Divine Martial Army, Blood Beast Army, or Divine Prison Army would experience a qualitative transformation. Boomboomboom! In a flash, the four thousand Divine Prison Army soldiers entered the fray, causing a massive reversal on the battlefield. The Blood Beast Army was actually incapable of stopping the Divine Prison Army. The three thousand Divine Martial Army soldiers and the four thousand Divine Prison Army soldiers immediately put the Arabs in an extremely disadvantageous position.
"Ziyad, pass on my order! Mobilize the Ironblood Army!"
In the distance, beneath the black war banner, Abu Muslim's eyes flashed as he suddenly spoke.
A trace of astonishment flashed across Ziyad's face when he heard this.
"But, Milord, the Blood Beast Army has only just entered the fray and hasn't completely retreated. If we mobilize now, wouldn't that be …"
As he spoke, Ziyad subconsciously glanced at Qutaybah on Victor.
After all, the Blood Beast Army was one of Qutaybah's soldiers, and it was one of his most elite and top-class forces. If he dispatched the Ironblood Army at a time like this without Qutaybah's consent, it would be an affront and challenge to him.
The battle had only just begun, and although Abu Muslim, Aybak, and Osman had not said anything, they were all doing their utmost to avoid a conflict with the Arab War God.
"Qutaybah has already agreed!"
Abu Muslim indifferently said.
"Ah?"
Ziyad was flabbergasted. He had been standing next to Abu Muslim this entire time, only several dozen feet away from Qutaybah, but Ziyad had no impression of Qutaybah saying anything at all.
"In truth, the moment Osman's Beheader Army entered the field, Qutaybah already agreed. From the very start, he relinquished his authority, so there's no need for you to worry about this."
Abu Muslim indifferently said.
Ziyad glanced at Abu Muslim and then at Arab War God Qutaybah. At first, he was dazed, but then he seemed to understand something.
The governors of the empire always had a subtle tacit understanding. Without any words, just a glance or two, a glance, or sometimes even just a feeling, would allow them to understand each other's intentions. During the attack on Khorasan, Abu Muslim, Osman, and Aybak had formed this sort of tacit understanding, and it was apparent that the same thing was happening again.
But Ziyad still found this tacit understanding between the governors very difficult to understand.
"Ironblood Army, attack!"
Ziyad waved his hand and gave the order to attack.
Rumble! The earth quaked as the soldiers of the Ironblood Army began to march to the front lines.
… …
The situation on the battlefield was rapidly changing. While the appearance of the Divine Prison Army had completely reversed the Divine Martial Army's disadvantage, on the Great Tang's left flank, the battle between Osman's Beheader Army and the Xuanwu Army had reached a fever pitch.
Boomboomboom!
