Chapter 374: Chapter 147: Sunset Blood Battle! Galloping Freely!_2
“It’s the Black Wolf Army from the Ferocious Wolf Clan’s Black Wolf City.”
Di Hen whispered to Su Changkong by his side.
Just like Dafeng State City, which lay close to Sunset Prairie, the city of the Ferocious Wolf Clan across from Sunset Prairie was Black Wolf City. The Black Wolf Army from Black Wolf City was an elite force that was in no way inferior to the Dafeng Iron Cavalry.
Su Changkong looked into the distance. Each member of the Black Wolf Army was tall and sturdy. Although the total population of the Ferocious Wolf Clan was less than that of the Great Flame Empire, due to their unique structure, where everyone honored martial virtue, and individuals were extremely powerful, they managed to stand on equal footing with the Great Flame Empire.
“They are inviting us to battle!”
The tens of thousands of Black Wolf Army soldiers waited several miles away without any intention of drawing closer, but everyone knew that they were issuing a challenge.
To directly attack Sunset Fortress? It wasn’t so easy with the advantage of defending terrain; therefore, the major battles between the two sides usually took place on the plains, with real swords and spears clashing head-on.
“Dispatch the elite of Wind Flag Camp to meet the enemy outside the city!”
Pei Yang also gave the order decisively.
“There’s no need for me to step in yet?” Su Changkong thought to himself silently.
Noticing Su Changkong’s doubt, Di Hen lowered his voice and transmitted his words through True Qi: “This is just a fight to probe the strength and condition of the enemy. The time for serious combat hasn’t come yet.”
Su Changkong nodded upon hearing this. The strength of the Black Wolf Army and the Dafeng Iron Cavalry was almost equal, hence when the fighting broke out, it typically resulted in a war of attrition. Only when the top experts of both sides entered the fray would it signify that the battle had reached its most fierce and critical junction.
Now was not yet the time for Su Changkong to enter the battle.
“Clang! Clang! Clang!”
The city gates opened wide. From the entrance of the eastern city gate, amidst the resounding clanging sounds, fully armed Dafeng Iron Cavalry poured out like a steel flood from the opened gates and gathered into formations outside Sunset Fortress.
Just the deployment and formation of the troops took nearly half an hour.
About forty thousand men, divided into four large square formations and forty smaller ones, charged towards the waiting Black Wolf Army on the distant plains like roaring waves.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
The charge of tens of thousands of men was undoubtedly a magnificent sight. It resembled a black sea, with the sound of horse hooves merging into one. The trembling sound of the ground could be felt even from miles away.
“Kill them!”
Within the ranks of the Dafeng Iron Cavalry, battle cries thundered as Qi-Blood Realm martial artists inspired their Qi and Blood. By utilizing the formations practiced daily, they connected with each other, triggering the Qi and Blood of their comrades, until tens of thousands were surging as one.
From a distance, above the troops of the Dafeng Iron Cavalry, the united Qi and Blood turned into a blood-colored fog, covering the sky and moving together with the charge of tens of thousands of Cavalry.
The Dafeng Iron Cavalry had mastered formations for group combat. The more there were, the more terrifying the combined force when their Qi and Blood united.
The charge of tens of thousands of Iron Riders meant that anything in their path was to be crushed to smithereens.
“Wuuu, wuuu, wuuu!”
But the Black Wolf Army from Black Wolf City of the Ferocious Wolf Clan was also an elite force not weaker than the Dafeng Iron Cavalry. Within the ranks of the Black Wolf Army, primitive and profound horn sounds blared. Affected by these horns, each Black Wolf soldier’s fighting spirit soared, their eyes bloodshot, their muscles bulging, exuding a fierce aura as if they had gone berserk!
“Kill!”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
With battle cries and drum sounds thundering, nearly a hundred thousand soldiers from both sides clashed on the vast plains with their close-quarter weapons, creating a collision of forces. The Dafeng Iron Cavalry in black armor and the Black Wolf Army in bronze battle attire were distinct yet mingled together like two different lakes merging.
“Kill all these barbarians!”
A Qi-Blood Realm cavalryman, full of killing intent, charged forward with a long spear in hand and angrily thrust it out, piercing through an opposing Black Wolf soldier, armor and all.
“Kill him! Tear him to pieces!”
The Black Wolf soldier who had been pierced through his chest was bleeding from his mouth but seemed to feel no pain. His eyes crazed with fury, he gripped the spear, preventing it from being withdrawn, and pulled forcefully, dragging the cavalryman off his horse while madly roaring.
“Thump!”
Some Black Wolf soldiers were knocked off their feet by the charging Iron Riders, trampled under iron hooves, just as some Dafeng Iron Cavalry were struck against the shield wall, their horses’ heads shattered, the riders tumbling from their horses’ backs.
After one wave of the charge, both sides continued to fight on foot.
“Kill all these monkeys!”
The soldiers of the Black Wolf Army, each as ferocious as wild beasts, clad in heavy armor and wielding heavy weapons and shields, showed no signs of fatigue.
Blood splattered, every strike was lethal. Both sides’ soldiers were locked in a kill-or-be-killed struggle, putting their very lives on the line.
It could be said that the Dafeng Iron Cavalry and the Black Wolf Army had an undying hatred for each other. Over the years, there had been countless bloody battles, and every time, there were countless compatriots who died at the hands of the other side. This accumulated hatred had become a feud!
Upon encountering each other, there was no need for any idle words, just an all-out fight to the death!
Standing on the city wall, Su Changkong looked into the distance at the soldiers of both sides fighting on the plains. His heart was also complex. He had experienced many life-and-death battles and seen many great scenes, but such a large-scale battle with nearly a hundred thousand men fighting, it indeed shook him too.
Not one person retreated a step; in everyone’s eyes, there was only the desire to kill the opponent. Primitive, bloody!
In the sky above the battlefield, even the clear blue sky was covered by a fog of blood, with the sounds of battle cries and the screams and roars of the dying unceasing.
In such a great war, it seemed as if an individual’s strength became extremely insignificant.
