Chapter 635: The Brave Wins When Two Meet on a Narrow Road
On the other side, the Xiliang Heavenly King Group was moving towards the Dingling army.
They had to defeat the Dingling directly before the Dingling and Parthian armies joined forces, so that the best effect could be achieved by dividing the battlefield.
"Uncle, can we really succeed by doing this?" Zhang Xiu looked at his uncle Zhang Ji with helplessness on his face.
"No problem, on the plains, our Xiliang Cavalry is invincible!" Zhang Ji waved his hand and answered arrogantly.
"There are a total of 20,000 elite troops in our headquarters, 4,000 of which are double-talented troops led by me, and the other 10,000 double-talented troops are Qiang cavalry. Are these 200,000 Qiang cavalry really useful?"
For the first time began to doubt his uncle. It was not that he underestimated the Qiang cavalry. However, these guys with average level and not even any talent, could really play any role in such a large-scale battlefield.
"Hahaha, Xiu'er, you don't know this!" Li Que squeezed over with great interest and explained to his little nephew the greatness .
As the military leader of the authentic Xiliang Iron Cavalry, they all placed high hopes on Zhang Xiu.
As for Li Bai, the original Fifth Heavenly King of Xiliang, he had long been transferred back to the Central Plains by Li Ru.
After all, Li Bai did not fit in with the style of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and was transferred back to the Central Plains by Li Ru to do other things. After all, Li Bai's martial arts skills were still very reliable, and he could do many things very conveniently.
"Uncle Li, do you know what you are talking about?" Zhang Xiu's face was full of horror.
Li Que actually told him that the Xiliang Iron Cavalry was actually an auxiliary legion with the ability to amplify the Qiang Cavalry.
He is also one of the commanders of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry. How come he doesn't know that the Xiliang Iron Cavalry has this function?
What's even more outrageous is that the more Qiang cavalry they gathered, the better fighters they would be. This was simply unbelievable to Zhang Xiu.
"Enemy spotted, all troops on alert!"
The news sent back shocked Li Que. He decided to use facts to tell his little nephew how powerful their Xiliang Iron Cavalry was.
After the reconnaissance Qiang cavalry came back with a brief report, Li Que and others directly formed the army into a formation for a unified charge.
The Dingling on the opposite side are also advancing, which means that the Dingling have no camp to serve as a defense. Isn't this their best time to attack!
"The Western Liang cavalry is running rampant across the world!" Li Que roared, and then immediately ordered all the soldiers to maintain a charging formation and continue on their journey.
When both sides could see each other with the naked eye, they chose to charge at the same time.
In the sight of Li Que and his men, the Dingling army was rushing towards them, raising clouds of dust, as if they were sure to defeat them completely.
As the saying goes, when two brave men meet in a narrow road, the brave one wins. The Dingling people did not think they would lose at all, and directly sent out several people with internal energy to lead the army to launch an attack.
"kill!"
The general named Tujin Rongluo displayed his legion talent, covering the charging Dingling cavalry with layers of fluorescent light, making the momentum of the charge even more terrifying.
"It's actually a talent for enhanced defense?" A trace of ferocity flashed across Li Que's face. The unique Xiliang Iron Cavalry would not allow others to have the same attribute as themselves.
As for how to be unique?
Why not just kill all the counterfeits?
"Charge! Let them know how powerful the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is!" Li Que roared loudly and suddenly started to speed up. The 10,000 people at the Xiliang Iron Cavalry headquarters rushed forward almost like a conditioned reflex.
Almost instantly, black clouds extended from the army and covered all the Xiliang Iron Cavalry. At this moment, the Iron Cavalry suddenly soared up as if they had taken medicine.
At the same time, four fluorescent lights burst out from Li Que and others. The power of the Western Liang Iron Cavalry became even more terrifying, even making the Dingling officer Tujin Rongluo a little dazed.
Originally, Li Que and others had arranged the army into a formation convenient for charge. Now, after they took the lead in attacking, the Qiang cavalry behind them also began to follow the charge reflexively.
Under such circumstances, an elongated triangular charge formation was deployed, and it crushed towards the Dingling people with unstoppable momentum.
“I never thought that I would have to go to the battlefield again!”
Ma Teng laughed at himself on the way to the charge. He thought he was going to be transferred to a civilian position, but he didn't expect that the momentum of everyone charging just now infected him and made him involuntarily follow the entire army.
"But it's okay. It's time for the Qiang people to prove themselves!" Ma Teng murmured with a smile. With the support of the imperial court, their lives in Xiliang have become much better.
But the Qiang people were still uneasy in their hearts. Such a beautiful day came too easily, as if everything was a dream, and they felt very uneasy.
So when Ma Teng was recruiting soldiers, all the Qiang tribes sent out their men unanimously, and they easily gathered an army of 210,000.
If Xu Rong had given Ma Teng a few more days, perhaps he would have been able to gather 500,000 regular Qiang cavalry to provide support.
The Qiang cavalry mentioned here are all the elite of their Qiang tribe. Ordinary Qiang cavalry are just at the level of miscellaneous soldiers, but every Qiang cavalry here can be called a regular soldier, which was considered elite in the past.
It’s a pity that after the Han Dynasty raised the standards, these elite Qiang cavalry were no longer up to par.
Although all of them are regular soldiers, the number of soldiers who have reached single talent is less than 50,000.
However, the 10,000 Qiang cavalry he led were a genuine double-talented legion, and could be on par with any regular army of the Han Dynasty.
As the two sides got closer, they both took out bows and crossbows and shot at each other.
But after a round of arrow fire, both sides realized that this was a meaningless act.
Faced with each other's long-range attacks, both sides adopted an attitude of ignoring them.
This was indeed the case. The arrows had no effect at all on the leaders of both sides, and many arrows even bounced off directly.
"Die!" Li Que stabbed Tujin Rongluo with his spear. His internal energy was now out of his body.
Facing Li Que's attack, Tujin Rongluo did not dodge or force his way forward. Instead, he concentrated all his internal energy on the tip of his spear and stabbed it towards Li Que's chest with his backhand.
Both sides were extremely confident in their own defense, so in this life-and-death fight, both sides chose to exchange injuries for lives.
Under this tit-for-tat attack, both sides were instantly knocked away by the huge force.
When Li Que got up from the ground, countless horses' hooves trampled over his body.
The same was true for Tujin Rongluo on the other side, but the difference was that Li Que had three more layers of legion talent, so the damage he suffered was far less than that of Tujin Rongluo.
Li Que just felt chest tightness and shortness of breath, as if he had been hit by a sledgehammer.
On the other hand, not only was Tujin Rongluo's armor pierced, but a long blood mark was also left.
In the first round of confrontation between the two sides, the winner was immediately apparent, with the defensive power of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry being the clear winner.
