Awooooo!
Ten fully armed war elephants roared to the sky and then charged directly at the wooden fence.
The tall fence was easily uprooted by the elephant and tossed aside. Then, it rampaged wildly, its ferocious power instantly destroying the wooden fence.
Ding ding ding!
The arrow struck the warhorse, sparks flying and the sound of metal clashing echoing. This was something Lin Yi had painstakingly crafted, arming the elephant to the extreme, with even its trunk protected by armor plates.
Now on the battlefield, they are steel behemoths, their terrifying power uprooting and tearing apart the wooden fences.
This change instantly altered the battlefield situation.
With the wooden palisade walls torn apart, the Xiliang cavalry were completely liberated. Through the gaps in the walls, countless Xiliang cavalrymen charged in.
"Damn it, what kind of monster is this?"
Upon seeing this, Yelü Dashan's expression changed drastically. He immediately sent men to intercept the enemy cavalry and prevent them from charging in and doing whatever they wanted.
He harbored extreme hatred for those enormous creatures; if it weren't for them, it would have taken the other side quite some time to uproot those wooden stakes.
Now it's been completely destroyed like this. If we let them continue to dismantle it, then our only defense around us will be gone.
Just as they were about to order the shooting of the monsters, a loud explosion suddenly rang out in the distance, and a huge breach was opened, which made the Northern Barbarians Barbarians' eyes widen in horror.
Damn it, this is a huge problem!
"What the hell are these things? Those monsters are incredibly strong, one thing, but how come they can explode?!"
"Now that the ravines have been filled in, the enemy cavalry has been allowed in, making this battle difficult."
"Now we can only rely on the terrain to ambush them; maybe we can injure them and then wait for reinforcements to arrive!"
The Northern Barbarians Barbarians' faces were extremely grim. The strongest defense of Wind and Snow City had been breached, so they could only rely on the terrain for defense.
However, this would make it much more difficult.
Hearing their words, Fu Kun shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Gentlemen, the enemy probably won't give us a chance to hold our ground. Don't forget one thing: Ma Chao has already circled around to the rear!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's faces turned green.
They then remembered that they had dug a lot of trenches in front, but they hadn't dug any in the back, since that was their escape route, and they certainly wouldn't cut off their own retreat!
Now that Ma Chao has circled around to the back with almost no obstruction, it means he'll be here very soon!
Damn it, our escape route is cut off!
In an instant, everyone's expression changed; this was truly a catastrophe.
They couldn't help but look at Yelü Dafeng, and said in a deep voice, "General, what should we do? Ma Chao is behind us now; I'm afraid our reinforcements won't be able to get here!"
Yelü Dafeng's eyes flickered; his time was running out.
The main force of Xiliang is undoubtedly ahead. It's wishful thinking for our 100,000 men to take them down. Our only chance is to break out before Ma Chao completes the encirclement.
Forget about achievements now, save your life first.
He said in a deep voice, "We're preparing to break out. Before Ma Chao completely surrounds us, we'll break through and perhaps run into our reinforcements along the way. We can even join forces to wipe out Ma Chao!"
Everyone's eyes lit up; if that were true, it would be a great achievement.
"The enemy probably won't let us leave," Fu Kun said bitterly.
The enemy directly in front is the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, who are also cavalry; shaking them off is virtually impossible.
If they were caught up, they would be annihilated by two cavalry legions, with virtually no chance of survival.
Yelü Dafeng glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice, "Draw lots. Life and death are predestined, wealth and honor are determined by fate. As long as you persevere, I will reward you!"
He picked up a cow horn from the side, put several wooden sticks of different lengths inside, and then handed it to everyone.
Go ahead and smoke!
The lieutenants exchanged glances; at this point, they had no other choice but to draw their own wooden slips.
Fu Kun looked at the wooden stake in his hand, his face turning pale. He gritted his teeth and said, "General, give me ten thousand men. I'll cover the rear!"
"Good, you're a man of honor. I will treat your family well!" Yelü Dafeng nodded and said in a deep voice.
Ten thousand men trying to stop an army of over one hundred thousand—unless he is a god descended from heaven, he has absolutely no chance of survival. All I can do is take care of his family.
Thanks!
A resolute glint flashed in Fu Kun's eyes. What goes around comes around, but killing me won't be so easy.
He turned around and shouted to his men, "Brothers, sound the horns and prepare for battle! We, the Northern Barbarians, are the true sons of the grasslands! Today, let Xiliang see what real cavalry looks like!"
Waaaaah!
The bugle sounded on the battlefield, and Fu Kun's 10,000 cavalrymen, facing overwhelming odds, launched an attack.
"Haha, how dare you!"
Seeing this, Zhang Liao, who was keeping a close watch on the battlefield, burst into laughter and shouted, " Tiger Cavalry, charge forward! Leopard Cavalry, prevent the enemy from escaping and flank them from both sides!"
Given the enemy's posture, how could he not know their intentions? They wanted to make a drastic sacrifice to cover the escape of the main force.
Unfortunately, it was too late. The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry's warhorses were the finest, and they wouldn't let them escape.
At the command, the battle flags instantly began to wave!
"Charge!"
Led by this banner, the Tiger Cavalry instantly became enraged, their ferocious momentum far more savage than that of the Vanguard Dare-to-Die Warriors, completely engulfing the battlefield.
Faced with this display of force, even the Vanguard Dare-to-Die Warriors had to give way to the Tiger Cavalry; these iron hordes were simply too insane.
With such weight, if he stepped on you, you'd probably die.
The Tiger Cavalry charged straight at their opponents like hungry tigers unleashed from their cages.
"Kill..."
"Kill!"
Fu Kun was not afraid at all and went straight to meet them. He only needed to hold off the main force for a while. He would have no regrets even if he died!
The two armies clashed instantly. Fu Kun's pupils constricted as he finally saw the enemy before him, and a chill ran down his spine.
"Damn it, these are heavy cavalry!"
Fu Kun's expression changed drastically. Although he was confident that the Northern Barbarians cavalry was not inferior to others, it was somewhat unrealistic to expect them to fight against heavy cavalry.
Having been distracted by the Vanguard Dare-to-Die Warriors, he hadn't noticed anything unusual about them, but now it was too late.
Boom!
The two armies clashed, like eggs hitting a rock, crashing into a lump of iron.
The Northern Barbarians cavalry at the forefront was sent flying by the impact. The warhorse, covered in armor, was extremely powerful, much stronger than the Northern Barbarians ' warhorses.
