Central Province, Rising Sun Pass.
Compared to Yang Province, Central Province is undoubtedly the most difficult state to conquer under the Haotian Empire.
Therefore, even though the Chen Kingdom launched a sudden attack on the Haotian Empire, it only managed to break through two formidable passes in the Central Province and capture dozens of cities before being stopped by reinforcements urgently dispatched by the Haotian Empire.
Now, this Rising Sun Pass is a formidable pass that the Chen Kingdom needs to overcome as soon as possible.
The pass was guarded by the Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry, while the main force of the Chen Kingdom responsible for attacking the pass was the Five Elements Army led by Chen Rufeng.
Haha, what a small world!
Back then, you relentlessly pursued and attacked our Five Elements Army; now it's finally our turn to attack you!
More than 20 years ago, when the Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry attacked Flying Dragon Pass, the Five Elements Army was far from being a match for the Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry.
However, the Five Elements Army is no longer what it used to be. After all, the higher the cultivation level, the more difficult it is to improve. More than 20 years is enough for the cultivation levels of both sides to be brought to a similar level. With the coordination of the AI, the Five Elements Army has always been higher than the Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry in terms of battle formation synchronization.
"Come on then! Do you think my Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry is afraid of you?"
Although the Five Elements Army has made rapid progress in recent years, the three royal cavalry of the Haotian Empire have also made great strides. Now, the Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry, like the Five Elements Army, belongs to the threshold of the Gold Seventh Tier.
Although the Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry was wary of the Five Elements Army, they were far from being afraid of it.
Okay, haha!
To be honest, it's been over a decade since our Five Elements Army has ever mobilized its entire force together.
Today I will show you the true power of our Five Elements Battle Formation!
The Chen Kingdom army had been besieging Rising Sun Pass for over a month, and today, Chen Rufeng finally decided to stop probing and lead his army in a full-scale attack.
Boom! Boom!... Crack! Crack! Crack!
The Chen Kingdom's offensive process was similar: first, Talisman Puppet robots formed an infantry shield formation to cover the army's advance; then, rune-tanks, rune-artillery units, rune-warships, and so on advanced while firing, suppressing the enemy's firepower on the city walls from a distance.
Only after the main army gets close enough will the mech warriors and powerful cultivators soar into the sky and engage the enemy's strongmen on the city wall, further suppressing the defending army's firepower and creating an opportunity for ordinary soldiers below to climb the city wall.
Finally, the two sides made contact and entered into close-quarters combat. Needless to say, this was a battle of attrition, to see which side could last until the end.
During this process, the God Level powerhouses and Gold Level legions on both sides usually choose to fight at high altitudes, because once their full power is unleashed, it is easy for friendly fire to occur, which is not good for either side.
The battlefield at Rising Sun Pass was actually more difficult to attack than Guangling City in terms of terrain.
Guangling City was difficult to attack because it had too many defensive weapons and formations to aid it. If the army was not strong enough, the soldiers might all die before they could even climb the city walls.
As for Rising Sun Pass, it was due to the fortifications surrounding the city.
Rising Sun Pass is situated at a very high altitude, surrounded by many steep peaks. On these peaks, numerous sturdy bunkers have been built, interconnected by a formation that allows them to support each other, making them extremely difficult to deal with.
To deal with these bunkers, the Chen Kingdom spared no expense this time, sending five warships to provide fire support. The siege battle reached its climax shortly after the two sides made contact.
Boom boom boom!
Five main warships, in terms of individual combat strength, are only equivalent to Saint Level Peak cultivator, but on the battlefield, they play a more useful role than ten Saint Level Peak.
Missiles and beams rained down on the warships, striking the city walls and bunkers. Among them were highly skilled snipers operating their weapons, attacking from extremely cunning positions, causing immense damage to Rising Sun Pass.
Roar~~!!
The Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry transformed into giant fiery tigers and soared into the sky, intending to attack the main warship and disrupt Chen Kingdom's siege plan.
But at that moment, a giant, earthen-yellow shield shot into the sky and, in the blink of an eye, steadily blocked the attack of the fiery tiger.
boom!!
After the yellowish-brown light dissipated, a force of about five thousand men was revealed.
These five thousand men were all dressed in earthen-yellow armor, with Five Elements Ring ring badges on their chests. The badges emitted wisps of energy that condensed together to form a huge, semi-transparent rope, connecting them to four other nearby units.
Whoosh!
Just as the fiery tiger lost its footing, a golden streak of light followed closely behind the earthen-yellow giant shield, piercing fiercely towards the Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry.
"Hmph! Don't underestimate us."
The fiery tiger opened its mouth, and a scorching beam of light met the golden stream of light, causing the two to collide violently.
Whoosh!
Just then, the Flame Tiger froze, a blue ribbon wrapped around its body, and then a giant red hammer, propelled by a green staff, slammed into its rear.
"Roar~~!"
The fiery tiger roared, its body trembling violently, unleashing a terrifying shockwave. It finally activated the blue forces on its body, and with a light step in the air, it bypassed the encirclement of the Five Elements Army.
"Impossible! How can they achieve such a high synchronization rate?"
The leader of the Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry turned around and looked at the five troops of different colors, his eyes filled with shock.
Generally speaking, the higher the cultivation level and the greater the number of members in a battle formation, the more unstable the energy becomes after the formation is established, and naturally, it will be more difficult to achieve a high synchronization rate.
However, now the Five Elements Army is divided into five detachments, each with more than 5,000 members, and the total number of members has exceeded 25,000. Yet their synchronization rate is no less than that of the Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry, which has only a little over 10,000 members. This is truly terrifying.
"Attack again! I refuse to believe they have no weaknesses."
In general, the individual cultivation levels of most members of the Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry are still somewhat stronger than those of the Five Elements Army. Therefore, with similar synchronization rates, the Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry is still confident in launching an attack on the Five Elements Army.
Boom! Clang!
Ever since Chen Mu created the ' World-Creation Five Elements Army ' composed entirely of the Five Elements Army Five Elements War Soldiers, he has been designing a unique fighting style for them.
The Five Elements Army is different from the ' World-Creation Five Elements Army '. They do not possess Chen Mu's Power of Creation, making it difficult for them to merge and become one.
Therefore, Chen Mu took a different approach, dividing the Five Elements Army into five forces that echoed each other. Each force pushed its own attributes to the extreme, and its combat power was transformed.
The Five Elements Ring Badges worn by the Five Elements Army are custom-made Rune Artifacts by the Rune Research Institute. As long as the five units are no more than ten miles apart, their Spiritual Power can maintain a continuous cycle of mutual generation, which is extremely mysterious.
At this moment, the five Five Elements Army cooperated seamlessly, crisscrossing back and forth, besieging the Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry Tiger Vanguard Royal Cavalry, forcing them to only be able to parry and have no power to retaliate.
