"How is it?"
Outside Talas, Gao Xianzhi rode a red steed toward Wang Chong.
"Dalun Ruozan has long since colluded with the Arabs. Once we meet, they will quickly attack."
Wang Chong calmly said.
"So between the Arabs and the Ouzan, the first to be dealt with is the Ouzan?"
Gao Xianzhi asked. Wang Chong had gathered nearly eighty percent of his forces on the eastern front. It was apparent that he was placing a great deal of importance on the Ouzan.
"Not the Ouzan. The first to be dealt with is the Ouzan and the Western Turks!"
Wang Chong shook his head and corrected him with a smile.
"The Western Turks?"
Gao Xianzhi's body trembled, a look of surprise on his face. Rumble! Just when he was feeling confused, the earth began to quake. Behind the seventy thousand Ouzan soldiers, another cloud of dust soared into the sky. Countless soldiers were charging toward them.
"Buzz!"
In just a moment, a huge marshal flag rose from the horizon, and a giant golden wolf baring its fangs and brandishing its claws on the flag instantly leaped into everyone's eyes. Everyone's pupils constricted at the sight of this golden wolf, and the air became extremely solemn.
Of all the kingdoms of the continent, only one faction would use this giant wolf as its symbol: the Western Turkic Khaganate! And in the Western Turkic Khaganate, only the most revered of individuals could use this golden wolf.
The commander of these soldiers was a Western Turkic Great General!
"Duwusili!"
Gao Xianzhi's expression turned extremely grave. Although there were many people that Gao Xianzhi had never met in his many years in the Western Regions, there was no Great General that Gao Xianzhi did not know.
The Celestial Wolf Great General!
He was one of the best Great Generals of the Western Turkic Khaganate, an extremely experienced warrior. Even Beiting Protector-General An Sishun had suffered defeat at his hands! More importantly —
"Wang Chong, be careful! The one who came is the Celestial Wolf Great General Duwusili of the Western Turks. The Black Wolf Yabgu Agudu Lan that you killed in Qixi was once his subordinate, a general that Duwusili had raised. Not only that, he had one of the three strongest cavalry forces of the Western Turkic Khaganate, the Celestial Wolf Cavalry! This force of cavalry isn't large, but it's extremely powerful. In the past, Beiting Protector-General An Sishun was defeated by this force. "
Gao Xianzhi said solemnly.
"Hmm?"
Wang Chong's eyelids twitched as he subconsciously turned his head to look at the huge Gold Wolf Flag. Wang Chong was no stranger to the name of the Celestial Wolf Great General of the Western Turkic Khaganate, Duwusili. Among the kingdoms bordering the Tang dynasty, the Celestial Wolf Great General Duwusili was definitely one of the best generals.
This person was definitely on the same level as Gao Xianzhi.
But Wang Chong had never imagined that Duwusili would have a relationship with Agudu Lan.
"So, it was Agudu Lan's death that drew him out?"
Wang Chong's eyes flashed, his mind in turmoil.
One was Dusong Mangpoje, one was Duwusili, and now … Wang Chong turned to the fiery-red figure standing behind Dalun Ruozan. This figure was no stranger to Wang Chong. It was none other than that inseparable from Dalun Ruozan, that inseparable from Huoshu Huizang!
The tiny City of Talas had gathered Ouzan and three Great Generals of the Western Turks. If the Abbasid Caliphate's Governor of the East was added to the mix, the Tang Dynasty would be facing four opponents of the Great General level. The situation was extremely disadvantageous to the Tang Dynasty.
Not only that, Duwusili had also brought with him the Celestial Wolf Cavalry that stood at the apex of the pyramid of the continent. If he added the Arabian Mamelukes and his own five thousand Wushang Cavalry, he had gathered the finest cavalry of all three worlds.
Such a situation had never occurred in all of history.
"Something's wrong!"
Wang Chong's heart thumped as he turned to the distant hills. Behind Dalun Ruozan, thousands of Ouzan Cavalry began to flow out. A special force of cavalry, muscular and plump, their armor stained with blood-red insignia, slowly rode out from the rear of the Ouzan army.
These cavalry were clearly one size larger than the Ouzan Cavalry around them, like a child standing before an adult.
The storm-like aura on their bodies instantly attracted everyone's attention, causing everyone who saw them to feel an invisible pressure.
"The Mutri Great Cavalry!"
Li Siye blurted out as he stared at the black and red Ouzan cavalry, all the muscles in his body instantly tensing up.
Wang Chong said nothing, but his expression was just as grave. He knew that Dalun Ruozan had come prepared, but Wang Chong had not expected him to bring with him the oldest and strongest of the Ouzan Cavalry!
The Mutri Great Cavalry!
It was rumored that more than three hundred years ago, this was the strongest cavalry named after the Ouzan Mutri Tsenpo. They shouldered the duty of protecting the royal capital and never left the Ouzan capital. In his last life, even when the Arabian Empire invaded the plateau, the Ouzan had not used them.
On the entire plateau, this was the only cavalry force that bore the name 'Great Cavalry'.
In terms of fighting power, this cavalry force was far superior to the Qinghai Soldiers and White Braves that Wang Chong had already destroyed. Wang Chong had never imagined that Dalun Ruozan would have the ability to mobilize the Mutri Great Cavalry.
The Celestial Wolf Cavalry, the Mutri Great Cavalry, the Wushang Cavalry, and the Abbasid Caliphate's Mamelukes … the world's best cavalry forces had all gathered in one place. This was unprecedented in the history of cavalry!
"Buzz!"
A familiar pressure appeared in Wang Chong's mind, causing his heart to thump. A moment later, the Stone of Destiny's familiar voice resounded in his ear.
"Destiny is a strange interweaving. When the world's best and most outstanding things gather together, there will inevitably be a subtle reaction. Either they work together or they fight for supremacy. Whether the world will shatter or forge a new structure will depend on that special moment and the choice of destiny!
"The mission 'Clash of Destiny' has been activated! The difficulty has been increased. Starting from now, for each Mutri Great Cavalry or Celestial Wolf Cavalry killed by the Wushang Cavalry, user will be rewarded with 30 points of Destiny Energy, and for each Mameluke Cavalry killed by user, user will be rewarded with 50 points of Destiny Energy. For each Wushang Cavalry killed by user, user will be deducted 100 points of Destiny Energy. The rewards and penalties for the mission will be calculated during battle.
"Notice! If the Mutri Great Cavalry, Celestial Wolf Cavalry, and Mameluke Cavalry are killed by soldiers other than the Wushang Cavalry, the rewards and penalties will not be calculated! "
… …
Wang Chong froze at this voice, a strange feeling emerging in his mind. He had not expected the Stone of Destiny to issue this mission at a time like this. The mission issued by the Stone of Destiny seemed to open up a new path for him to accumulate Destiny Energy on the battlefield, but that was not the case at all.
Other than the Wushang Cavalry, Wang Chong's strongest force was the ballista army. But according to the Stone of Destiny's final words, killing the Mutri Great Cavalry, Celestial Wolf Cavalry, or Mameluke Cavalry would not be considered a reward.
This also meant that if Wang Chong wanted to obtain the Destiny Energy rewarded by the Stone of Destiny, he could only do so through the Wushang Cavalry and cavalry duels.
Not only that, each time the Wushang Cavalry killed a Mutri Great Cavalry or Celestial Wolf Cavalry, they would be rewarded with 30 points of Destiny Energy and 50 points of Mameluke Cavalry. However, each death of a Wushang Cavalry would result in a deduction of 100 points of Destiny Energy.
"So the Stone of Destiny has already taken into account the fact that all of them are wearing Meteoric Metal armor, which is far stronger than theirs?"
Wang Chong wondered to himself.
"Marquis, what do we do now?"
Li Siye turned his head to Wang Chong.
"Pass on my order! Prepare for battle!"
Wang Chong looked into the distance, smiled coldly, and then quickly rode off.
At almost the same time, Gao Xianzhi passed on the order to return to the second defense line with Wang Chong.
… …
In the distance, tens of thousands of Ouzan Cavalry were stationed atop a long, tall hill, but they did not immediately move out. Many pairs of eyes followed Dalun Ruozan to the rear of the army. There, a massive banner of a wolf on a blue background was leading the countless Western Turkic cavalry in a surging wave.
At the front of this army was an exceptionally tall and muscular Turkic steed. He was riding a Turkic steed, and his sharp eyes made him seem like a war god of the nine heavens. Behind him was an army of cavalry wearing silver armor covered in strange inscriptions. Unlike Ü-Tsang or any other cavalry, these cavalry were covered in barbs, and from a distance, they wore strange armor that made them seem like a savage silver wolf. Just a glance at them was enough to make one shiver in fear and dread.
Awoooo!
The howls of wolves resounded through the air as the tens of thousands of Celestial Wolf Cavalry, each leading ten-some four-foot-tall wolves, surged toward the hills.
"Duwusili, you really did come!"
Dalun Ruozan stood at the top of the hill and heartily laughed. In this three-way alliance, the last of Dalun Ruozan's plans had finally appeared.
"Since I've been invited, how could I not come to this banquet to divide up the Tang dynasty?"
A thunderous voice resounded in everyone's ears.
Neigh let out a heaven-shaking howl, and in the howling winds, Duwusili took the lead and soared into the air, shooting through the air like a blazing flame to appear at the top of the hill.
In the howling winds, Duwusili's position on the top of the hill seemed to stir up a storm, the enormous pressure forcing everyone to back away.
