“Rumble rumble rumble ——”
It was clearly a desert, covered in soft sand, but there was such a loud sound of horses’ hooves coming from it.
Under the moonlight, the black pressing hors*men were approaching from far and near, rapidly approaching towards Karthim.
“Your Majesty, Karthim is in sight.” The scout who had scouted ahead galloped back wildly and shouted loudly.
In the centre of the army, on the two chariots, one on the left and one on the right, Agogo, who was standing on the left chariot, shouted, “All troops a*sault, take the city of Kartium.”
At these words, the cavalrymen raised their whips and drove their horses swiftly closer.
“Gaju, let’s go up too.”
Agogo smiled broadly as he rose into the air, “Take the first step towards conquering the Middle Kingdom.”
“Yes, Right Sage King.”
On the right chariot, Gaju also rose into the air and followed Agogo towards the four men who were constantly fighting in the sky. It was left to the gra*sland warriors below, and it was the two of them who fought above.
————————
At Tianmen Pa*s, under the same moonlight, there was a bustling army coming from the direction of Daqian.
“Stop.”
The young general at the head of the group raised his hand and gave the order, his voice echoing out, and the army instantly stopped in its tracks, revealing an iron discipline of order and prohibition.
“Who is below the city?”
On the walls of Tianmen Pa*s, the lieutenant guarding the city shouted.
The young general spurred his horse to the front of the army and responded, “Gao Baiyang, the sectional governor of the northwest camp, has come with 20,000 men to help.”
The Great Qian had never intended to abandon the Tianmen Pa*s, for if it were broken, Shu Prefecture near the Western Regions, though treacherous, would have difficulty in resisting a strong enemy who could break through it.
Therefore, Emperor Qian’s order was to defend it to the death and not to allow it to be breached.
All the troops close to the western region had already moved out, but the first to arrive was the north-western army.
Gao Baiyang gently waved his hand, and the generals at the rear sent out their Qi in unison, gathering in the air to form a military Qi.
Despite the night, the military aura formed by the army was extremely obvious, carrying the unrelenting iron blood and the strong mark of the Great Qian.
The military qi is the proof of the various armies, and the seal in it is a special qi formed by the practice of the Great Qian military techniques. Every general practises military martial arts, and the gathering is an obvious symbol of this.
In the territory of the Great Qian, if the army had this mark and military aura, who else could it be if not the people of the Great Qian?
When the lieutenant on the city wall saw the military aura, he immediately shouted, “Open the city gates…”
The heavy city gates slowly opened, and with a glint in his eyes, Gao Baiyang slowly waved his hand and the army moved forward again.
As the army entered the city, a certain star in the night sky suddenly burst into light, intersecting with another star that was also glowing.
————————
In Karthim, the shadowy soldiers, who had just swept half the city, continued on without stopping, as if they did not need to rest at all.
In fact, it was true. Qing Yu observed the physical condition of these Yin soldiers and found that they were in a half-living, half-dead state, with all the functions of a living person, but far more powerful, in terms of recovery, durability, etc., etc., than a living person.
By the way, there are gains and losses, and although they can still have intercourse, I’m afraid they won’t be able to pa*s on their genes.
“Say, Old Bull, have you noticed that the stars are particularly bright tonight?” Ma Mian muttered.
Qing Yu smiled and looked up at the sky, an inexplicable smile appeared on his face behind his mask, “The stars are shining, perhaps it’s a sign that there will be a big change in the world.”
“Yes, I always heard the king say that a great change in the world is our chance, you said this should be a happy event.” Horse Face said.
“Of course it is joyous.”
‘At least for the moment, it is joy for you ——‘
The latter sentence was what Qing Yu said in his mind.
Looking at the two particularly bright stars in the night sky, Qing Yu secretly mused: ‘The two stars of Broken Army and Greedy Wolf are shining together, it seems that these two stars are about to gather. The Lord of the Broken Army star was originally in the Western Lands, so how could it not appear during such a battle. Looking at its flickering appearance, the Breaking Army Star Lord should be about to join the battle.
As for Greedy Wolf ——‘
Qing Yu looked to the west, ‘It’s already here.’
“Old Ox, did you hear that?” Horse Face asked.
The huge bull’s head nodded lightly, “The sound of horses’ hooves.”
“Stand by, there are enemy troops.” Horseface immediately shouted loudly.
The Yin soldiers who were advancing quickly arranged themselves into a military formation and stood ready to attack.
In the land of the West, there would be no cavalry at all. In the ten years that Ma Mian had been here, he had only seen a handful of horse riders, never an established cavalry.
If there was such a strong sound of horses’ hooves, there was only one answer: the gra*slanders were coming.
“Boom…”
There was an explosion in the sky as Agogo wielded his battle axe, draping it over Luo Feng’s halberd with a mountain-shaking force that caused Luo Feng to retreat three steps in the air, his ice-cold battle boots stomping out a violent burst of air.
“Great Qian War God,” said Agogo with a brutal look on his face, “I have long wanted to test the strength of the Great Qian people. Let us see what qualifications you have to occupy this vast and fertile land.”
To be honest, the territory of the Northern Zhou that the gra*slanders had been coveting was not really fertile in the Central Plains, and the truly fertile land was occupied by the Great Qian.
This time, the gra*slanders are attacking to take a bite out of this fertile land.
“Golden Wolf Khan’s court, Right Sage King Aguge, the gra*slanders have really become impatient with life.” The imperial robe on Luo Feng’s body ruptured, revealing the black battle armour worn in the wide imperial robe.
The Pingtian crown on his head was casually tossed away, and beneath his draped hair was a handsome face full of murderous intent.
“Hmph, it will definitely be you who die today.”
The Greedy Wolf Star on top of Gaju’s head projected a stream of star power, causing his aura to soar, and the strange light on his scimitar flashed continuously as he was already making his move.
“Demon Wolf Howling Sky Kill.”
As the wolf’s shadow leapt, Gaji howled out a wolf’s howl, and his blade Qi became a strong wind, whistling out.
The two-on-two battle was now four-on-two with the addition of Agogo and Gaju. No matter how powerful the King of the Temple of Ghosts was, Agogo and Gaju were confident that they would not be able to escape.
Down below, watching the dangerous situation in the sky, the Yin soldiers were slightly confused, but were stopped by Qing Yu’s strong voice: “The king will not be defeated by these villains, we only need to deal with the gra*sland army.”
As he said this, Qing Yu and Ma Mian combined their forces and their aura overpowered the Yin soldiers, and their figures were as strong and tall as evil spirits amidst the whistling Yin wind, causing the somewhat agitated Yin soldiers to calm down.
“Meet the enemy and kill all the wild dogs in the gra*sland.” Qing Yu ordered loudly.
“Yes.”
The yin soldiers shouted in unison, shaking the wilderness with their voices, causing those who were still hiding in the city to be terrified.
The sound of horses’ hooves gradually approached, and when the first cavalry figures entered through the city gates, the battle began to break out.
