"It has finally begun!"
At the same time, on another mountain not too far away, the 'Wang Chong' and the others who had escaped were watching the battle from afar.
From afar, the three hundred Ouzan cavalrymen were divided into more than ten echelons. Dust billowed as they charged down from the top of the mountain like a bolt of lightning. The momentum they exuded was astonishing.
Zhao Yatong, Fang Xuanying, and the others were still fine with it. After all, they had experienced it before. However, shock could be seen in the eyes of Bai Siling, Xu Gan, and Huang Yongtu.
The momentum of the charge of the three hundred cavalrymen was reminiscent of an unstoppable army.
In comparison, the Iron Cloak Highwaymen that the three of them had experienced was nothing.
"Too powerful!"
Huang Yongtu muttered to himself, completely shocked by this scene.
This was the first time he had witnessed a battle with a foreign force. Even though it was only three hundred cavalrymen, the impact it had on Huang Yongtu was devastating.
It had completely changed his perception of battle.
Xu Gan was slightly better off, but his complexion wasn't too good either.
Only Wang Chong's expression remained the same. He wasn't as shocked as Bai Siling and the others, nor was he as worried as Zhao Yatong and the others.
In Wang Chong's memory, war was nothing out of the ordinary.
To him, the charge of the three hundred Ouzan cavalrymen was nothing more than child's play. In fact, Wang Chong knew that this was just a foreplay.
The Ouzan cavalrymen had yet to display the true might of their charge.
Weng!
As expected, when the three hundred Ouzan cavalrymen reached the midpoint of the mountain, something suddenly lit up, followed by a second, a third, a fourth …
Eventually, the entire mountain was lit up.
"What is that?"
Huang Yongtu's eyelids twitched.
"Halo of the White Yak! The war halo of the Ouzan Iron Men! "
Wang Chong replied calmly.
The Ouzan worshipped a type of white yak, viewing it as a sacred beast. And the Halo of the White Yak was one of the most famous war halos of the Ouzan.
Its white horns were ferocious and tempered, and when it charged, it was unbelievably sharp.
"Buzz!"
Sure enough, as soon as Wang Chong's voice trailed off, the shadows of huge white yaks suddenly appeared in the void. Each yak had a pair of sharp horns and aimed at the Tang dynasty's formation at the foot of the mountain.
"Moo! — "
Along with the earth-shattering moo, the billowing smoke suddenly expanded by more than ten times, and under the feet of the more than three hundred Ouzan cavalrymen, milky white rings of light were connected to each other, and the rings of light squeezed against each other, vibrating with each other, finally forming a huge white steel formation.
Rumble! In the blink of an eye, the auras of the three hundred or so Ouzan cavalrymen suddenly skyrocketed, reaching a terrifying level.
At this moment, everyone on the mountain paled!
The onlooker sees clearly, while the player is confused!
This was the first time that Zhao Yatong and the rest were able to observe the charge of the 300-odd Ouzan cavalrymen from afar. This was completely different from the few times that they had faced them head-on.
The visual impact was unparalleled.
"It's not over yet!"
Upon seeing this sight, Wang Chong sighed deeply.
The one thing that the Big Dipper Army commandant shouldn't have done was to fight the Ouzan soldiers at the foot of the mountain.
Even though he had already dragged the formation back by three hundred meters, it was still far from enough.
Under the relentless charge of the Ouzan soldiers, Wang Chong could already foresee the destruction of the Tang dynasty's formation.
"Get ready, let's move out!"
While everyone was still reeling in shock from the charge of the Ouzan cavalry, Wang Chong raised his right arm calmly and issued the order to move out.
The aura of the Ouzan soldiers had already risen. The rumbling of the hooves of the horses shook the heavens, and the reverberation of the white yak war halos could be heard from dozens of li away.
Under this aura, no matter what Wang Chong did, all sounds would be drowned out.
— — This was the best opportunity to move out!
Weng!
Following that command, Wang Chong took the lead and leaped down the mountain. With Wang Chong taking the lead, the others also came to their senses.
Bai Siling, Zhao Yatong, Xu Gan, Huang Yongtu, Fang Xuanying, and the two hundred Tang dynasty cavalrymen hiding in the mountains silently leaped down the mountain.
Yet, at this moment, no one noticed them.
…
Hong long long!
When the three hundred Ouzan cavalrymen charged down from the mountain in an imposing manner, the mountain-shattering momentum finally made the Big Dipper Army commandant's face turn grim.
He finally realized that he had made a grave mistake!
Even though he had borrowed the Big Dipper Army's tower shields to deal with the Ouzan soldiers, he wasn't the general of the Big Dipper Army.
The three hundred Ouzan cavalrymen were far more formidable than he had imagined.
For this mission, he was originally very confident in the four hundred huge tower shields that he had borrowed. However, at this moment, he suddenly felt that he wasn't so confident anymore!
However, it was already too late by then.
"Get ready!!"
A loud, sonorous voice echoed across the land, tinged with anxiety. The Big Dipper Legion commandant waved his arm and gave the final order to prepare for battle.
The battle was about to begin!
In that instant, the atmosphere was as though a storm was brewing, and the aura of war had reached its peak.
All of the infantrymen, axemen, archers, and cavalrymen gripped their weapons tightly, and their bodies tensed. Aiming at the mountain peak, they made their final preparations.
Hong long long!
The sound of hooves grew louder and louder, and the Ouzan highland steeds in their formation grew clearer and clearer.
Just when the charging Ouzan cavalrymen were only a hundred zhang away, the Big Dipper Army commandant suddenly slashed his sword across the air.
Hong long long!
More than four hundred tower shields, as heavy as mountains, fell from the sky. Under the impact of the giant shields, the entire ground shook violently, as if it had been hit by a pair of invisible hammers, making rumbling noises.
The four hundred tower shields lined up in a straight line like a wall, forming the frontmost line of defense.
At the same time, black war halos shot out from the feet of the frontmost shieldbearers. The four hundred halos combined into one, vibrating incessantly with a metallic clang.
In an instant, the aura of the four hundred shieldbearers doubled, and they stood firmly on the ground as though they had taken root in the earth.
A majestic, indestructible aura erupted from the shieldbearers at the frontmost.
"Roar!"
The four hundred shieldbearers roared fiercely. Under the provocation of the Ouzan cavalrymen, their ferocity and fearlessness erupted from their bodies.
There was a reason why the Tang Dynasty was able to intimidate the world.
The overall strength of the Tang Dynasty was publicly acknowledged to be the strongest in the world. Longxi had fought against the Ouzan for many years, and it was the frontline against the Ouzan.
The four hundred shieldbearers had also undergone the rigorous training of the Big Dipper Army. This kind of training had been tempered thousands of times. Every person who had gone through this training was a qualified warrior.
Even if the Ouzan soldiers were twice as formidable, they wouldn't fear them in the slightest.
Seeing the determined shieldbearers, the Big Dipper Army commandant's eyes finally regained their luster. So what if the Ouzan soldiers were formidable?
With these shieldbearers, he was confident that he could stand his ground against them. As long as they could withstand the initial charge, they would be the ones to take the next step!
"Archers, prepare yourselves!"
The Big Dipper Army commandant's voice reverberated in the air.
Following his voice, the eight hundred Great Tang soldiers began to display their might. Each and every one of them began to release their True Martial realm halos.
Innumerable True Martial realm halos intertwined with one another, reminiscent of a metallic clatter. They exuded an intimidating aura as they formed battle formations one after another.
"Ready, release!"
Following that sonorous voice, arrows pierced through metal and cracked stone, as dense as rain, whistling down from the formation at the foot of the mountain. The first wave of attack wasn't from the Ouzan soldiers but the Tang dynasty soldiers.
Regardless of the battle, the archers would always be the first to attack.
Hong hong hong!
In an instant, all of the Ouzan cavalrymen lowered their heads and used their heavy armor to withstand the rain of arrows.
The incomparably heavy arrows struck the bodies of the three hundred Ouzan cavalrymen, but they were all deflected. Even the most formidable ones only managed to pierce through the armor of the cavalrymen.
"Hahaha!"
A frenzied laughter broke through the rain of arrows, reverberating across the sky.
"The first wave of arrows has passed. Let us show these soldiers of the Tang dynasty what true warriors are and what true despair is!"
The Ouzan commandant at the very front laughed heartily as he spoke in the Ouzan language. Along with these words, a sudden change occurred —
Hong long!
A new surge of energy suddenly burst forth from the three hundred Ouzan cavalrymen like a tsunami. The Ouzan cavalrymen, who were already moving at their maximum speed, suddenly felt an immense pressure weighing down on them, as if a mountain was pressing down on them.
Shadows began to drift around them, and vaguely, one could see the shape of a domed fortress. Even though it was still in its most basic form, and it was barely discernible, as if it was made of mist.
But in that instant, the pressure exerted by the three hundred cavalrymen increased by more than tenfold.
Weng!
Upon seeing this sight, the Big Dipper Army commandant at the foot of the mountain suddenly trembled. As if struck by lightning, his face turned ashen.
"Halo of Fortress!"
In that instant, he finally understood what was amiss and why he felt so uneasy. He had made a fatal mistake.
Hong long!
