While the top officials of the Tiandou Empire were still debating whether to send troops, the Star Luo Empire and the Wuhun Empire started another head-on confrontation in front of Shuiyun Pass.

The Star Luo Empire's camp, which was nearly a hundred miles long, stood fifty miles outside Shuiyun Pass like an ancient behemoth. Early in the morning, accompanied by thunderous drums, the army gathered.

One phalanx after another appeared outside the camp. Each huge phalanx was composed of ten thousand people, and was accompanied by a series of general orders issued from the Central Army.The [-] Star Luo Empire army slowly moved forward. They were ten heavy cavalry regiments, and they were all the heavy cavalry brought by the Star Luo Empire this time. This was a true steel army.Their advance was not fast, but the overwhelming pressure made the earth tremble.

Shuiyun closed, and Hu Liena ordered the city gate to be opened, "It's time to show them the strength of our Spirit Empire."

Four huge suspension bridges set up a 50-meter-wide moat amidst the rattling of nooses. A total of [-] light cavalry quickly poured out of Shuiyun Pass.

These light cavalry don't wear metal armor, but leather armor.This leather armor is not the kind of light armor that only protects important parts of the body, but rhinoceros leather armor that protects the whole body. Its value is still higher than that of metal armor. It is not only strong in defense, but also very light and will not affect movement at all. .Each of them carried a large crossbow machine two feet long and one foot wide on their backs. These crossbow machines looked like enlarged versions of Zhuge Shen's crossbows.

Originally, the Zhuge Divine Crossbow was required to be made of iron essence, but in order to mass-produce it and quickly put it into war, the president of the Blacksmith Association, Lou Gao, reduced the material requirements for the crossbow machine at the expense of increased volume and weight. The material of the machine was changed to fine steel.

Even Bibi Dong, the current Empress of the Wuhun Empire, had to admit how wise Si Chen's decision to bring the Blacksmith Association into the Wuhun Palace camp was. At least since the founding of the Wuhun Empire, she has never worried about insufficient weapons.

In addition to this large crossbow, each Wuhun Empire light cavalry is also equipped with a four-foot-long stainless steel sword. The leather armor on the body carries at least 120 six-inch-long swords in special leather pouches throughout the body. crossbow arrows.Although these crossbow arrows are not all made of iron essence, the arrowheads are all made of iron essence.According to the calculation results provided by Lou Gao, the power of this large Zhuge Divine Crossbow should not be weakened much. It is perfect for equipping the army.

Moreover, the Wuhun Empire spared no effort to equip each light cavalry with a tall, dark horse. These black horses were much taller than ordinary horses, with a length of more than four meters.The shoulder height is also about 1.8 meters, which is extremely majestic.What's even more strange is that these horses have no hair on their bodies, only a layer of fine scales, and a faint bulge on their heads.

"I don't believe those heavy cavalry can stop our light cavalry! How can ordinary horses compare to the horned scale horses specially trained by our Spirit Empire?" On the city wall, Yan looked proud, but Xie Yue and Hu Liena did not do anything. Any comment, obviously they think so too.

Horned horses have nothing to do with ordinary horses.They are a type of soul beast. They are not good at attacking, but their defense is quite good. They have the innate soul skills of black scale body protection and sky horn shield.This kind of spirit beast usually gathers in groups. Because its own fighting power is not strong, it rarely appears in the spirit beast forest. Most of them live on the grassland.

Their lack of combat power is compensated in other aspects. Horned scale horses have excellent endurance, which is more than three times that of ordinary horses.It's also very fast.When running, you can also release the sky horn shield to protect yourself and reduce resistance.

Because this kind of spirit beast can be tamed by humans, they have naturally become the favorites of nobles from all over the world.There are really not many soul beasts that eat grass. This horned scale horse has excellent patience and does not require too much trouble to feed. This is one of the reasons why it is so popular among the nobles.But the price of horned scale horses is not low. The price of a horned scale horse is as high as [-] to [-] gold soul coins. This is still a ten-year-level horse. If it is a century-level horned scale horse, the price will be ten times higher. , the thousand-year-level ones are even more incredible, they have a price but no market.As for ten thousand years and more... they are almost non-existent in the horned scale horse group. They have not evolved to that level of bloodline.Although they have a trace of the genes of the legendary super soul beast Unicorn, it is only a small trace.As for the legendary unicorn that exists at the same level as the sacred dragon, it is more like a legend.

Therefore, the value of the equipment of the Wuhun Empire's light cavalry is definitely higher than that of all arms. This is without counting the horned scale horses. This shows how much effort the Wuhun Empire has spent on this special army.

The speed of the horned scale horses is indeed very fast. In a short time, this group of horned scale horse cavalry appeared in front of the Star Luo Empire's heavy cavalry regiment.

Seeing the [-] light cavalry rushing toward us in an orderly manner, Davis, who was holding the formation behind the [-] heavy cavalry regiment, couldn't help but frowned, "Do these guys from the Wuhun Empire want to commit suicide?" He was familiar with the art of war. Naturally, we know what the result will be if the light cavalry attacks the heavy cavalry and heavy infantry formations, especially when the numbers of both sides are so different, it is simply no different from committing suicide.Even if these light cavalry were to attack with bows and arrows, they faced heavily armed heavy cavalry and heavy infantry. Bows and arrows had almost no effect, and they did not need their own White Tiger Legion to take action.

hum-

Dai Mubai, who was in the army, heard this voice and almost fell off his horse. The scene of Ma Hongjun being shot into a sieve came back to his mind.

Along with the deafening sonorous sound, a large buzz sounded at the same time. The light cavalry of the Wuhun Empire activated the killing arrows of the Zhuge Divine Crossbow at the same time. The black crossbow arrows formed a dense shadow in the air.

In order to make the charge more effective, the heavy cavalry regiments of the Star Luo Empire charged in a wide formation.It is precisely because of this that they withstood more attacks from the Zhuge Divine Crossbow from the front.

Even though it was dozens of miles away from the main battlefield, the sound of tens of thousands of Zhuge Divine Crossbows erupting was still so shocking. At the same time, when the black clouds swept into the Star Luo Empire's heavy cavalry regiment, a large amount of blood mist rose into the air. Hu Liena and the others who were locked up by Shui Yun could see the scene, accompanied by the heart-rending screams.

With just one salvo, the number of cavalry in the entire heavy cavalry regiment was reduced by nearly one-sixth.

Although the Horned Scale Horse is not good at attacking, it is another story compared to ordinary horses.The Wuhun Empire's cavalry was like a sharp knife that instantly penetrated into the Star Luo Empire's heavy cavalry regiment. The collision force of the horned scale horses alone was enough to knock those heavy cavalry off their backs, not to mention the large Zhuge God Crossbow that could kill them in the face. , the Star Luo Empire's ten to one military advantage disappeared in an instant.

Davis' face was livid, and his eyes were full of disbelief. Zhu Zhuyun beside him had turned pale with fright. It was obvious that she had recalled some bad memories like Dai Mubai.

"Mubai, you lead the attack with the soul masters of the White Tiger Legion!" Davis ordered to Dai Mubai who was not far away.

Dai Mubai didn't want to go at all. He knew the power of the Zhuge Divine Crossbow better than anyone. Although the light cavalry sent by the Wuhun Empire were not soul masters, the arrows fired by the Zhuge Divine Crossbow were enough to penetrate the soul sect-level defensive soul skills. Wasn't Weiss clearly asking him to die?
But Dai Mubai also understood that if he refused directly, his prestige would be completely destroyed, and his image in the eyes of the soldiers would change from a heroic prince to a timid coward, which would be even worse than death.Just as he was racking his brains to come up with some excuses to politely refuse Davis' order, a cold and familiar voice sounded in his ears.

"If you don't want to go, don't go, but...this time, you can't escape anymore."

Dai Mubai's eyes widened in horror. He knew that voice all too well. He knew that this was a moment of life and death, but he still couldn't figure out how Zhu Zhuqing sneaked into the army quietly. ?

Dark red ripples appeared around Dai Mubai's body, the air began to solidify, and everything around him seemed to become crystal clear, as gorgeous as crystal.

"Destroy."

The cold voice echoed in Dai Mubai's ears, and he saw his brother not far away looking at him with a horrified expression.The next moment, a dazzling red light flashed. The surrounding air had completely stopped and turned into a complete crystal. Everything was frozen at this moment. Dai Mubai maintained his struggling posture and was trapped in the crystal formed by the solidification of the air. , his body was covered by the transparent light red crystal, and he never saw Zhu Zhuqing's figure from beginning to end. He could not even pass on the news that Zhu Zhuqing had sneaked into the army.

A crisp, music-like shattering sound rang out, and the solidified light red crystal had turned into powder under the influence of a special force, floating in the air without even leaving a body behind.

This is one of the two soul skills given to Zhu Zhuqing by the 10-year-old soul ring produced by the evil killer whale king. It is a group-limited special skill, the destruction of the Netherworld Mirror, but this time she used it accurately on Dai Mubai. , without affecting the soldiers beside him at all.

Even when facing Xiao Bai, Zhu Zhuqing never used this skill completely. At most, he only used the mirror to restrict Xiao Bai's movements in the sea water.The first skill of this eighth soul skill can temporarily turn air, water and other materials into mirror-like crystals. If the crystal is broken, all objects within the range will be shattered and perished.Unless the opponent is so strong that his body can withstand the terrifying tearing and shattering force of this skill, he will undoubtedly die. It is an extremely cruel skill that fully inherits the fighting style of the Evil Killer Whale King.

Dai Mubai's identity was extraordinary. One of the two princes died silently. There is no doubt that this greatly shook the military morale of the Star Luo Empire. Davis was even more frightened out of his mind. Dai Mubai died. The result was unclear, and he never found the murderer from beginning to end, so would it be his turn next?
Zhu Zhuqing, who had achieved enlightenment by killing his fiancé, quietly left after he succeeded, leaving only a group of generals and soldiers who were in extreme panic.

hum-

At this time, the second launch of the Zhuge Divine Crossbow was completed, and a large cloud of blood mist rose across the sky again. This time, the number of heavy cavalry who died under the spray of the Zhuge Divine Crossbow was even greater than in the first round.

"Retreat!" Davis's eyes were splitting. Dai Mubai's death was unclear, and the heavy cavalry regiment was almost wiped out. No matter how unwilling he was, he could only give the order to retreat.

As the saying goes, a defeat is like a mountain. The two volleys of Zhuge's divine crossbows have completely wiped out the fighting spirit of the Xingluo Empire's troops. Coupled with Dai Mubai's death, Davis gave the retreat order, and it was really a race to see who could run away. Hurry.

There is no doubt that the soul masters with higher soul power will run faster when they retreat. The dense crowd cannot stop the pace of these high-level soul masters.Either they jumped over their own soldiers and pushed them away forcefully. Those high-level soul masters quickly rushed to the forefront of their own retreat.In this way, those low-level soul masters and soldiers without soul power were naturally exposed to the light cavalry of the Spirit Empire.

When Davis saw the Zhuge Divine Crossbow erupting for the third time and many of the Star Luo Empire's low-level soul masters and soldiers falling, he couldn't help but close his eyes in pain.Only then did he realize that his order had been given too hastily.Although the enemy is strong, the White Tiger Legion is an army composed of all soul masters after all. If high-level soul masters can be allowed to stand in front and retreat slowly, even if there will be losses, they will never be as big as they are now.

At this time, the battlefield was already in chaos. The Wuhun Empire's army went straight towards the Star Luo Empire's camp. After three rounds of volleys from the Zhuge Divine Crossbow, more than half of the Star Luo Empire's heavy cavalry regiment was lost. In addition, the Wuhun Empire's The number of casualties in the pursuit of the [-] light cavalry continued to surge.

And the Wuhun Empire still has not sent out their most powerful soul master legion.

Davis couldn't care about anything else at this time, and the generals of the Star Luo Empire were still rushing to his side on horseback. If they hadn't been running for their lives, those generals would have wanted to kneel in front of him and kowtow to him.

"Your Highness, please send the soul master army to rescue them quickly. Our heavy armored army will not be able to hold on any longer."

"Yes! Your Highness, these are our elites. Our Star Luo Empire only has these [-] heavy-armed troops in total. If we are defeated by the Spirit Empire, how will we defend the rear?"

"Your Highness, the Heavy Cavalry Legion is about to be wiped out. Please give the order quickly. If this continues, the Heavy Cavalry Legion will be finished."

……

The heavy armored corps is extremely important in any country. The financial resources required to form a heavy armored corps are almost equal to ten infantry corps. Both the equipment and the quality of the soldiers are the highest in the military system.For the kingdoms and principalities that originally belonged to the two empires of Tiandou and Xingluo, it was already very difficult for each country to have one or two heavily armed legions.At this moment, seeing these precious soldiers being slaughtered continuously under the impact of the Spirit Empire army, how could they not feel distressed?

Davis couldn't help roaring, "Why didn't I give the order? Was it because I didn't want to? Those grandsons ran faster than me, how could I call them back?" (End of Chapter)
