In such situations, speed is crucial, so cavalry is the primary force, responsible for harassing the enemy's long support lines and annihilating their manpower.
Today, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry are gathered here, but the cavalry that prioritizes speed is still Zhao Yun's newly formed Hundred Riders Legion.
This cavalry force was modeled after the Hundred Riders, and also incorporated the advantages of the White Horse Volunteers, while strengthening its own weaponry and equipment, thus enhancing its combat effectiveness.
Sending Zhao Yun to harass the enemy's supply lines is undoubtedly the best choice.
"Your subordinate obeys!"
Zhao Yun was overjoyed. He hadn't expected the Emperor Emeritus to choose him so readily; this was his chance for his Hundred Riders Legion.
Without the slightest hesitation, he accepted the order.
Several people around him cast envious glances; this kid had landed a great job. This time, operating behind enemy lines, he was destined to All Under Heaven and a force to be reckoned with in the West.
Chen Dao sighed, his voice filled with envy.
He and Zhao Yun volunteered to go to the battlefield, but Zhao Yun unexpectedly won first place. He couldn't help but sigh, "To be able to do whatever one wants on enemy territory, that's a man's ultimate dream. It's a pity we're not pure cavalry!"
"Haha, a man should be arrogant. It's a pity the Emperor Emeritus didn't choose me this time, otherwise I would have shown these Western Rong the might of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry!" Qu Yi completely agreed with his words and couldn't help but laugh.
Although he was somewhat disappointed, he was also aware of his own situation. While the Vanguard Dare-to-Die Warriors were usually the vanguard, they weren't very fast, so they were out of luck for this mission from the start.
However, there is some good news: there are already over a million people on the front lines; this is truly their battlefield.
After all, the Frostwest Empire was planning a sneak attack, and even the Emperor Emeritus, with his good temper, couldn't tolerate it. Since the other side wanted to have a decisive battle with Great Liang, they couldn't care less about perfection.
Since the enemy is courting death, then kill him!
really!
After sending Zhao Yun to harass the enemy's reinforcement routes, Lin Rusong immediately turned his attention to the million-strong army ahead and decided to kill them.
He looked at Wang Ziwen beside him and said in a deep voice, " Ziwen, Ashina Tiandu, so I will grant his wish. Issue the order to launch a full-scale attack. I will nip their conspiracy in the bud!"
The so-called sneak attack was a joke; the other side certainly knew they would be discovered, but they had no other choice but to fight back in their death throes.
Since that's the case, I'll see them off.
"Your subject obeys!"
Wang Ziwen laughed; the battle was finally about to begin.
The enemy is attempting a sneak attack from the Xiling Corridor. We're not stupid; we won't wait for them to gather. It's better to strike first.
Previously, constantly shrinking their living space was merely a means of annihilating them completely. Now that the other side has come out on its own initiative, there's no reason not to eliminate them; after all, we can't give them a chance to breathe.
The opportunity for the Great Liang to unify the continent has finally arrived.
Once the mission of annihilation in this battle is accomplished, Great Liang will have secured victory in the entire war, and everything that follows will be nothing more than minor troubles.
Thinking of this, Wang Ziwen couldn't help but feel excited, and her voice even trembled slightly.
He exclaimed excitedly, "Your Majesty's great undertaking is about to be accomplished! You are an emperor unlike any before or since! Only Your Majesty can be called such a figure!"
He was extremely excited. After this battle, his heir would be officially crowned emperor, an unprecedented emperor, a once-in-a-millennium emperor!
Unifying the entire continent would be an unprecedented feat.
Having accomplished this, I, as his uncle, feel a great sense of honor, and even death would have been worthwhile.
Seeing his old friend's excitement, Lin Rusong couldn't help but laugh heartily and nodded, saying, "Hahaha, it's time to make a move, otherwise that old geezer Bai Zizai won't be able to hold on!"
After receiving the intelligence, he led his main force to intercept them, leaving Bai Zizai to continue the attack in place.
If they don't intervene, Bai Zizai will be under a lot of pressure.
In that case, let's go to war!
" Xu Zhong and Li Ling, you two will lead 500,000 Northern Liang Army as the left and right vanguards to capture this Xiling Highlands and cover the main army's advance!"
Lin Rusong's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he immediately issued the battle order.
"Your subject obeys!"
Li Ling and Xu Zhong's eyes lit up, and they immediately became excited, accepting the mission without hesitation.
" Qu Yi!"
"Your subject is here!"
"You will Vanguard Dare-to-Die Warriors a frontal assault, tearing open an opening for the main army to advance!"
"Your subject obeys!"
" The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are responsible for cutting off the battlefield, dividing and annihilating the enemy army. I will turn the Xiling Corridor into the graveyard of these two nations!"
" Ran Min, Chen Dao, Bai Zizai, and I launched a direct attack, crushing the enemy..."
As orders were issued, the Great Liang army instantly became frenzied, with every soldier's eyes gleaming. The great battle had finally begun.
The army poured into the battlefield, and the entire Xiling Corridor was instantly ignited.
"Kill!"
Xu Zhong and Li Ling, who were at the forefront, split into two groups and headed straight for the enemy's flanks, coordinating with the vanguard Vanguard Dare-to-Die Warriors in the middle to push forward.
The three armies advanced simultaneously, heading straight for the enemy's main force.
When Xiuli, a soldier in the Great Liang army, saw this scene, his face turned deathly pale. Even though he was prepared, he couldn't help but feel disappointed.
If the Great Liang forces were to attack like this, the Frostwest Empire would likely be in grave danger.
Unless Ashina Tiandu, he would probably be wiped out, after all, he had personally witnessed the terrifying firepower of the Great Liang.
"Hmph, feeling uncomfortable, are you?" Cha'er sneered from the side, looking at Xiuli with disdain.
This guy was one of the people who drove his father to his death; he wasn't killed because of the Great Liang. Now, seeing him suffer, he feels a strange sense of satisfaction.
Xiuli's face stiffened, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "I don't know what you're talking about. I was just marveling at the strength of the Great Liang." He dared not leave any evidence against him, or he would die.
"Haha, this is retribution for your Ashina Clan! You killed my father, and now someone is naturally killing you. You should be thankful you have a sister, otherwise your entire clan would probably be wiped out!"
Cha'er couldn't help but laugh, his laughter bordering on hysteria.
If Ashina Tiandu dies, then the Ashina Clan will only have one eunuch left, which would be wonderful.
"Hmph, utterly unreasonable!"
Xiuli ignored him and simply turned and left. Saying too much now would only leave him with ammunition, especially since this was Great Liang territory.
Pooh!
Watching his retreating figure, a hint of disdain flashed in Cha'er's eyes. Then, looking in the direction where the Great Liang army had gone, he couldn't help but laugh, "This corrupt nation is finally doomed."
Faced with the Frostwest Empire's attempt to launch a sneak attack and make a last-ditch effort, the Great Liang is finally about to take action.
