Fengjiayi had always felt a deep reverence and reverence for his father, treating him as his life's goal and model. No matter what, nothing could happen to his father!
"Your Majesty!!"
At this moment, Duan Gequan was even more panicked and terrified than Fengjiayi. As Mengshe Zhao's only Great General, Duan Gequan had a composed and shrewd personality, rarely revealing his true abilities. But Gelofeng's heavy injury had caused the Erhai Great General of Mengshe Zhao to reveal a completely different side: panic, anxiety, and fear!
At this moment, Duan Gequan had none of his previous composure.
"Your Majesty, we still haven't begun our grand hegemony. Nothing can happen to you!"
Duan Gequan was about to go crazy.
Gelofeng and Duan Gequan were lord and minister, but only Duan Gequan knew that they were also friends, brothers, companions who had walked the same path, supported each other, and shared the same dream!
To bring Mengshe Zhao's tiny kingdom out of Mengshe Zhao and dominate the world — this had always been a dream that Gelofeng and Duan Gequan had persisted in for decades.
"Your Majesty, no matter what, nothing can happen to you!"
Duan Gequan's heart was burning with anxiety and a deep rage.
"Wang Yan, Xianyu Zhongtong, I want your lives!"
Boom!
Xianyu Zhongtong and Duan Gequan's palms clashed and were sent flying. On the other side, Wang Yan had also been injured by Huoshu Huizang. But it was all too late. With the war in the southwest having developed to this point, Wang Chong's difficult plans had already been realized.
On the summit, the Mengshe Zhao soldiers were in chaos, and under the charge of more than one hundred thousand Mengshe Zhao soldiers, all the Ouzan soldiers were routed.
To shoot a man, first shoot the horse. To capture the bandits, first capture the king. Gelofeng's fall was a devastating blow to the Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army.
"Kill!" "Kill!"
Almost at the same time that Gelofeng fell, suddenly, an earth-shattering battle cry came from the foot of the mountain. A troop of nearly a thousand cavalrymen lined up in a long line, swinging their long swords that gleamed with a cold light as they charged over from the distant sky, stirring up clouds of yellow sand and dust.
Although there weren't many of them, this group of nearly a thousand cavalrymen had a thunderous momentum. Although there weren't even a thousand of them, they exuded a horrifying aura like that of an army of thousands of men and horses.
In front of everyone was a Ferghana Horse that was taller than a person. It had a large and robust physique, and it was carrying a muscular man who was more than two meters tall and exuded a wild aura like a giant. On the back of the muscular man was a huge sword that was even taller than a person. It was extremely eye-catching, and even from far away, one could feel a strong impact.
"Li Siye! Young Master, it's Li Siye! "
On the summit, Eagle stood on his tiptoes, overjoyed at the sight of the nearly one thousand cavalrymen rolling over. He had been with Li Siye for so long that he was extremely familiar with Li Siye and the large sword on his back.
"Mm, he really did make it!"
Wang Chong walked to the edge of the summit and looked into the distance, his eyes flashing with satisfaction. He had learned that Li Siye had arrived on the battlefield even before Eagle had.
Although he was still far from reaching the heights of the future, in this battle, this future Invincible Great General of the Tang Dynasty had truly not disappointed him!
"Rumble!"
The cavalry led by Li Siye arrived with incredible speed. By the time he and his cavalry appeared before everyone's eyes, they had already reached their maximum speed.
And beneath Li Siye's feet was a unique storm halo that pushed the speed of the entire army to the limit.
"Rumble!"
The earth rumbled and the warhorses galloped. To Li Siye's cavalry, who had reached their maximum speed, this long distance was covered in only a few moments. When the cavalry charged at full speed and charged to the limit, that kind of speed was unimaginable to anyone.
This was also the reason why cavalry were known as the kings of all soldiers!
Rumble! Several li was covered in the blink of an eye. In a few short moments, Li Siye's cavalry had collided with the Mengshe – Ü-Tsang vanguard. "Aaaah!" Screams shook the heavens, like a massive beast charging into a flock of sheep. No one could stop this charge of nearly one thousand cavalry.
Any Mengshe – Ü-Tsang soldier that got close would be tossed into the air as if they were nothing. But before they could land on the ground, extremely fast saber energies flashed past, cleaving them into pieces and dropping them to the ground.
In the war of the southwest, an organized army equipped with WuZi Steel weapons was displaying its might for the first time!
"Aaaah! … "
Countless screams could be heard as the nearly one thousand cavalry led by Li Siye tore through the enemy like there was no one there.
"Those who block me will die! Kill! … "
Li Siye's eyes glowed with a bloody light as he gripped the massive WuZi Steel sword that Wang Chong had personally forged in his hands. Man and horse became one as they charged through the vast Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army. He had waited for this battle for a long time.
He had also wanted to end the mission and return to the battlefield to help Wang Chong, who was in dire straits. But in the end, Li Siye had managed to restrain himself.
Wang Chong had an entire plan for the southwest, and Wang Chong needed his help. His plan on the plateau was far more important than his slaughter on the battlefield.
But now, Li Siye could finally completely release the rage and killing intent in his heart.
"Those who offend the Tang Dynasty must be executed, no matter how far away they are! … "
Li Siye's eyes were bloodshot as he let out an earth-shattering roar. He galloped up the mountain, leaving a trail of dust in his wake. Wherever he went, hundreds of Mengshe – Ü-Tsang soldiers would scream as they were thrown into the air and then chopped into pieces by the chaotic saber energy.
From the base of the mountain to the summit, this army of nearly one thousand soldiers would quickly cleave the Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army in two.
While Li Siye was leading the WuZi Steel army up the mountain, Wang Chong's side was also moving.
"Pass on my order! Cavalry, get ready!"
Wang Chong raised an arm, his bright eyes looking down the mountain.
The collapse of Gelofeng had triggered a domino effect, throwing the Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army into chaos. Not even Duan Gequan was in the mood to continue fighting, much less the others.
But to Wang Chong, this was still far from enough.
"Get ready! Move out!"
Following Wang Chong's order, the Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army had already cleared half of the river of caltrops that Wang Chong had left behind. With a massive boom, several dozen craftsmen and synchronized soldiers suddenly appeared on the summit.
At this moment, no one poured caltrops here to replenish the river of caltrops. Instead, huge steel plates slid down the river of caltrops.
One plate, two plates, three plates! … …
One by one, the craftsmen and soldiers stepped on the steel plates, quickly connecting the steel plates one by one with an extremely skilled speed. The entire process was quiet, light, and quick, with no unnecessary movements.
In just a few moments, a path of steel plates had appeared over the river of caltrops.
"Neigh!"
The warhorse neighed as Wang Chong mounted the White-hoofed Shadow and rode down the mountain on the river of caltrops.
"All cavalry, follow me! Charge with all your might!"
Wang Chong raised his sword, his thunderous voice echoing through the sky.
Rumble! In a flash, all the cavalry surged down. Clangclangclang! Bolstered by the Halo of Dusk Stallion and borrowing the steep terrain of the mountain, the entire army rapidly rose to an astonishing speed, even surpassing Li Siye.
"Kiiiill!" "Kiiiill!"
Like a silver bottle exploding, the several thousand Tang Dynasty cavalry led by Wang Chong stabbed into the chaotic Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army like a sword, splitting the battlefield in two.
"Kiiiill!" "Kiiiill!"
On the summit, The Eagle had already received the order to launch the general assault.
"Boom!"
A roar like that of a tsunami came from the summit. In an instant, thousands of Annam Protectorate soldiers roared as they charged down the mountain like a flood.
The Myriad Stars Formation that had left the Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army trembling in fear had finally 'collapsed', but not in the way that everyone had imagined.
As the tens of thousands of soldiers of the Annan Protectorate army maintained their formation and charged down the mountain with a callous and decisive momentum, the Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army immediately began to crumble and fall apart, one army after another.
"Ah! My hand! "
"Run! The Tang people are coming!"
"His Majesty, His Majesty's fate is unknown … We've already failed!"
"Defeated, the army has been defeated! Everyone, run for your lives! "
… …
The Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army was thrown into disarray. Howls, tramples, shouts, the neighing of horses, the clanging of weapons … it was a miserable scene. Many soldiers were even trampled, squeezed, and killed in the process of escaping.
The more than two hundred thousand casualties of the Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army reached an astonishing rate.
There was not a single unit on the summit that could resist. Even if someone tried to resist, they would be drowned in the flood or even trampled to death.
The general trend of the army's defeat was set in stone, and no one could change it.
At the base of the mountain, Dalun Ruozan stared at the crumbling flood, his hands and feet cold and his mind in disarray.
"It can't be, it can't be! … "
Dalun Ruozan clenched his fists, his body trembling, and even his eyes turning red. He found it impossible to believe that the five hundred thousand soldiers of the Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army would lose to the 180,000 soldiers of the Annam Protectorate and its meagre reinforcements.
Just a moment ago, the Annam Protectorate army had been on the verge of complete defeat. Mengshe Zhao and Ouzan had been on the verge of victory, but a moment later, the entire Mengshe – Ü-Tsang army collapsed like a landslide.
When the Annam Protectorate abandoned defense and turned from defense to offense, charging down the mountain like a flood, it was a one-sided slaughter.
More than two hundred thousand cavalry, thirty years of accumulation, and more than a month of bitter fighting … in the end, it was all about to turn into bubbles. To Dalun Ruozan, this was not just a battle. It represented the entire grand strategy of the Ouzan Empire, the ambition to use the southwest to pry open the Tang dynasty and the entire Central Plains.
But in the end, this battle was about to be lost.
