Wang Chong had clearly written this letter, so why had he claimed that the new Emperor had given it to him?
At this time, Abusi began to seriously peruse the contents of the letter.
But to his surprise, Abusi found that the letter really was connected to his Tongluo Great Halo. Moreover, it filled in a flaw in the halo that had been so subtle that not even he had noticed, boosting the Tongluo Great Halo to its new, current level of power.
As for why Wang Chong had claimed that it was from the new Emperor… in the end, it was to maintain the dignity of the Tongluo.
Considering his former quarrels with Wang Chong, Abusi couldn’t help but sigh.
Wang Chong had far too many secrets. There was no question that the Tongluo had initially chosen the wrong enemy. Fortunately, the Tongluo had reacted quickly, and during the Rebellion of the Three Princes, they had defected and joined Wang Chong. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Being friends with Wang Chong was far more comfortable than being enemies!
No one was willing to make an enemy of someone like Wang Chong, and no one could accept the responsibility!
As these thoughts ran through his mind, Abusi quickly turned his focus back to the battle.
Boom!
With a heaven-shaking boom, the tens of thousands of Tang cavalry gathered into the Arrow Formation. With the power of the Tongluo Great Halo, they thrust into the alliance army like a sharp sword.
Neigh!
“Kiiill!”
Horses neighed as armor clattered and weapons clashed. After a brief clash, the dense ranks of the alliance army were torn through, the riders screaming as they were sent hurtling through the air by the frightening impact.
At the moment of impact, these cavalry had already had their bones and muscles snapped, their organs turned into pulp.
The impact from the two armies charging against each other was not something the average person could bear.
“Hold! Hold!”
“Hurry and stop them!”
“No one is allowed to retreat! Charge! Retreat means execution!”
One of the alliance generals was both alarmed and infuriated. With a wave of his sword, he executed an alliance soldier whose horse had taken fright and taken a few steps back.
But none of this could stop the chaos in the army!
The three forces of Tang cavalry pushed unstoppably through the alliance army, sowing chaos wherever they went.
Ten paces, one hundred paces, one thousand paces… the three Tang cavalry penetrated deeper and deeper into the alliance army, spreading the chaos wider and wider. The alliance cavalry was constantly pushed back, the warhorses neighing in fear. Even that rebuking general was swept up in the tide of chaos and pushed back.
And things were far from over!
Within the fortress, Tongluo Great General Abusi’s eyes chilled. Though he could see that his army had the upper hand in the charge and this clash, Abusi had no intention of letting his foes catch their breath.
A cavalry charge was like a massive wave. It had to come ceaselessly, giving no chance for the opponent to breathe. They needed to strike while the iron was hot and utterly crush the foe!
This had always been the Tongluo Cavalry’s style!
“All soldiers, charge!”
Abusi narrowed his eyes as a beam of energy erupted from his body and soared into the sky.
Abusi leaned forward and charged forward like an arrow from its bow.
“Tongluo!”
“Tongluo!”
“Tongluo!”
Gallop! Their roars shaking the heavens, the twenty thousand Tongluo Cavalry shot forward like bolts of lightning, joining Abusi in charging out of the fortress.
Four seconds!
In only four seconds, Abusi’s twenty thousand Tongluo Cavalry reached an inconceivable speed and crashed into the alliance army.
“Ah!”
With a chorus of screams, the cavalry at the very front crumbled like they were made of paper, sent flying more than one hundred feet into the air by the Tongluo Cavalry before crashing several dozen feet away in the ranks of the army.
The Tongluo did not exceed ten thousand, and they were invincible above ten thousand!
At this moment, there were twenty thousand Tongluo Cavalry. With Abusi personally commanding them, they exhibited the strength that had made them the supreme force of cavalry in the pre-Wushang Cavalry world.
Boom!
With one strike, at least eight thousand alliance soldiers were blasted into the sky.
Before the alliance cavalry had even hit the ground, they were already dead.
Sixteen thousand!
Thirty-four thousand!
Fifty thousand!
In the space of a few seconds, the alliance had already lost fifty thousand elite cavalry, and the losses were continuing to climb.
“All soldiers, Arrow Formation! Charge!”
Abusi’s roar was like a rumble of thunder, and as it exploded over the sky, it stirred up a fierce gale.
Neigh!
The three Tang forces of cavalry immediately changed directions and began charging toward the Tongluo Cavalry.
Thudthudthud!
As collisions rang out, the three forces comprising eighty thousand veterans penetrated through the alliance army and joined together with the Tongluo Cavalry in a giant Arrow Formation.
The Arrow Formation had Abusi’s Tongluo Cavalry forming the tip while the other soldiers formed the wings.
An Arrow Formation of one hundred thousand men was an arrow of unprecedented size and a massive threat to the alliance army.
This was particularly true for Abusi’s Tongluo Cavalry. Although there were only twenty thousand of them, they charged with the momentum of hundreds of thousands of soldiers.
“Ah!”
Screams continued to rise up from the battlefield as the center of the alliance army was completely run through.
The alliance cavalry were in complete disarray, and the chaos spread from the center to the flanks.
Swish!
A saber flashed and blood gushed out. A Xi horseman, his horse, and his weapon were all sliced through by a Tongluo horseman.
This Xi horseman died on the spot, but his remains were carried another ten-some meters by his inertia.
The Tongluo Cavalry’s equipment could not compare to the Wushang Cavalry’s, but a great deal of time and energy had been put into their weapons and armor.
This was one of the important reasons the Tongluo Cavalry were restricted in number.
When it came to the toughness of their armor and the sharpness of their weapons, the Tongluo Cavalry were only second to the Wushang Cavalry. Even the Arabian Mamelukes were somewhat inferior.
Thudthudthud!
Warhorses collided with warhorses, weapons clashed against weapons, and halos resonated against halos. Bodies thudded to the ground, and in the space of a few moments, Abusi’s army had killed more than one hundred thousand soldiers.
In the distance, the leaders of the alliance grimaced.
Although An Lushan had used the heavy weaponry provided by the men in black to blast open the Great Tang’s walls, the Tang cavalry had gone on the offensive. It was more like it was the alliance who had had its defenses blasted open.
This left them flabbergasted and infuriated.
For a moment, their expressions were truly wondrous to behold.
“Attack!”
At the front line, Tiechi Bileli, who had been waiting in the rear around ten thousand feet away, suddenly urged his horse into a gallop.
Behind him, boom! The thirty-thousand-some cavalry of the Golden Wolf Army radiated a cold and callous energy as they charged forward.
The sight of the thirty thousand cavalry moving as a single unit was an awesome sight to behold.
Clangclangclang!
As the thirty thousand soldiers of the Golden Wolf Army moved out, their tens of thousands of war halos erupted from under their feet. Thirty thousand war halos each stood on their own but also resonated with each other.
The Golden Wolf Formation!
This was the renowned and top-class formation of the Eastern Turkic Khaganate, and it was also the formation that Tiechi Bileli had used to contend against Zhang Shougui’s Roaring Tiger Army time and time again, thwarting Zhang Shougui’s ambitions.
One hundred feet!
Roooar!
The space above the Golden Wolf Army distorted, and then a savage golden wolf head manifested, howling at the sky. The moment this giant wolf head appeared, the thirty thousand Golden Wolf cavalry seemed to be plated in gold.
This special light seeped into their armor, making the Golden Wolf Army appear like they were equipped with divine armor.
The Golden Wolf Army’s defensive strength was boosted by two to three times.
Moreover, the golden light also spread to their weapons, increasing the sharpness of their Golden Wolf Sabers.
On the steppe, the ‘golden’ in ‘Golden Wolf Army’ actually meant ‘golden steel’.
Rumble!
The earth rumbled as the thirty thousand Golden Wolf horsemen charged with the momentum of an avalanche.
The alliance army rallied at this sight, and An Lushan subtly nodded.
It was not for no reason that the Eastern Turkic Khaganate was able to contend against the Western Turkic Khaganate.
As Gao Shang observed the battlefield, his eyes flickered.
He turned to the Khitan King and said, “Khitan King, the Tongluo Cavalry are extremely strong, and in the past, they were known as the world’s number one cavalry force. While the Golden Wolf Army is powerful, it is not enough to defeat the Tongluo Cavalry. I must trouble the Khitan King to mobilize one of your eight elite divisions!”
