Volume 1: Looking Northwest, Shooting the Sirius Chapter 91: The New Era is Coming Part 1
"Yes, times have changed, and a new era has arrived!"
Unlike Liu Yancheng's loneliness, Chai Tiannuo was shocked and faintly excited.
When he participated in the suppression of bandits in Zhili, Chai Tiannuo had not seen such tactics. After all, the battle was not a positional battle, and the enemies were only small groups, so they would not use such a large formation.
What he saw now gave him a great shock. Although it seemed to be just a change in tactics, Chaitino could guess how far-reaching the impact was.
Future wars, especially large-scale positional battles, may no longer be a world of individual bravery!
The shock to the grassland royal court was no less, or even greater, than that of Northwest China.
"...The performance of the artillery of the Dahua Imperial Court far exceeds imagination!"
Sirius's voice was a little suppressed. The artillery that originally only played a supporting role now shines brightly, and the effect is beyond imagination.
Bai Shui, who had been calm all this time, stood up, looked at the artillery fire in the distance, and said softly:
"There are also changes in the royal court. The form of war in the future may undergo major changes."
"Rush over!"
Husangwei General Suoke Belen roared loudly. He had never experienced such a battle. The enemy was hundreds of feet away, but the attack had already arrived. Before engaging the enemy, his own side had suffered thousands of casualties.
However, many years of combat experience told him that if he wanted to survive, he had to rush forward. Stagnating or retreating would only lead to death!
After all, it was a lightweight vehicle-mounted cannon. After more than ten rounds, the barrel became slightly red and could no longer be charged. Only the Eight Ox Crossbow continued to fire.
Dozens of shamans finally rushed forward. Yellow talismans were flying all over the place, forming a barrier visible to the naked eye in front of the cavalry formation. The crossbow arrows shot on top and made a crackling sound, and were shattered by lightning.
The morale of the soldiers in the royal court was immediately boosted, and they roared forward. The Heihe Tatars made a large circle and began to approach the northwest formation. The spears in their hands began to shine brightly.
"Delightful Heaven!"
"Tum~!"
There was another round of cannon fire, and the soldiers of the Dahua Guards who had been standing silently took off the huge black bag from behind, took out the huge crossbow inside, cocked it, and waited quietly for the order to arrive.
"put!"
After activating the spirit-gathering talisman, the red-gleaming spears flew rapidly towards the frontier formation. At the same time, a continuous rain of crossbow arrows fell towards the charge cavalry in front of the formation. The spirit-gathering spears thrown by the northwest formation at the Heihe Tatars were completely untouched.
Don't care!
"Buzz~~!"
A harsh high-frequency sound suddenly sounded, and two golden light waves rose from the Dahua Guard Formation on both sides of the formation, instantly covering the entire formation. The spears activated by the Soul Gathering Talisman fell one after another, but were instantly melted away by the light waves.
"broken!"
Golden Pattern Shaman Baishui's body trembled violently, and the burning firewood in his hand spilled all over the floor. Sirius also had a solemn look on his face. Even a layman like him could see the extraordinary golden light waves.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
As the drums sounded, two Taoist priests wearing pure white robes, each holding a chess piece that radiated golden light, slowly walked onto the high platform.
"Lord Star Officer!"
The two generals of the Great Washington Guards saluted respectfully, the two Taoist priests smiled and nodded, stepped on the Big Dipper, drew golden runes, and placed the chess pieces among the Big Dipper runes.
“Buzz~~”
Another piercing high-frequency sound sounded, and golden light waves spread rapidly like ocean waves, instantly encompassing the two formations. The yellow talismans covering the royal cavalry formation on the grassland burned fiercely, and crossbow arrows fell one after another like rain, in an endless stream!
“Duh duh duh~~!”
In the time it took for a cup of tea, it was as if the Tianhe River was tilted upside down, and millions of crossbow arrows were shot down. Including the Heihe Tatars, there were more than 100,000 royal troops, but those who managed to escape by luck were less than 500 riders.
"...The age of warriors is coming to an end?!"
As a second-grade grandmaster, Suokbelen looked confused. Although he escaped with his life, he was hit by at least hundreds of arrows and his body was struck by a crossbow. He looked extremely miserable.
"Master, the spell I'm waiting for can't be used anymore!"
The shaman in the formation yelled in fear. Bai Shui made a hand seal, but it had no effect. He could only shake his head helplessly:
"Those two Taoist priests wearing white robes should be the star officials of the Qintian Prison. They have placed a barrier and our magic has been banned."
"Master Baishui, can't you compete with the Taoist priests of Qin Tianjian?"
Sirius frowned:
"Even if you can't do it alone, there are so many shamans in the religion, can't you still defeat the two of them?"
"...They are truly transcendent. If you want to become a Star Officer, the minimum requirement is to be a seventh-grade Qi Refiner!"
When he said this, Bai Shui couldn't help but have a look of envy on his face. Even if he was a shaman, he could not step into that realm even if he was favored by Yule Tian.
The great shaman is right. Although Dahua is corrupt, it has outstanding people and a country that can reach China!
Sirius couldn't help but twitch the corners of his eyes. As a strong contender for the position of the next Shan Yu, he was strongly supported by the Great Shaman Stone Slave and knew many secrets that others did not know.
Qi refiners, like warriors, are also divided into nine levels.
The first to third ranks are called Ran Chen, the fourth to sixth ranks are called Ming Cicada, the seventh rank is called Star Reaching, the eighth rank is Five Immortals, and the ninth rank is Destiny. The combat power of a first rank Qi Refiner is equivalent to that of a third rank Grandmaster!
As for the seventh-level Qi Refiner, he can already fight against the land gods who have just entered the country. If there is a peak in martial arts in the world, it must be the Qi Refiner.
Years ago, Sirius was curious about the rank of the Great Shaman Stone Slave, and said with an angry smile:
"After two decades of hard work, I still haven't gotten rid of the stain. All the talented people in the world have returned to Dahua!"
"Master Baishui, then what are we arguing about?"
Sirius smiled bitterly and shook his head:
"Two of the world's pinnacles want to take our heads like a bag, so why bother!"
"That's wrong."
Bai Shui shook his head gently:
"Even if they have transcended the secular world, the restrictions they are subject to are naturally great. The fact that they can appear in the northwest is probably related to the fact that the royal court broke the rules and poured in hundreds of thousands of troops."
"Coordinated defense is not easy. If they dare to attack, they may be punished by God."
So that's it. Sirius suddenly nodded, but looking at the light waves filling the world, he couldn't help but smile bitterly:
"Without the blessing of magic, how can we withstand the rain of arrows?"
"The only plan for now is to retreat and find a place where the rules are restricted. By then, this golden talisman formation will naturally dissipate!"
"Hey, this technique is too powerful!"
Chai Tiannuo's eyes nearly flew out when he looked at the rippling golden waves in the sky.
In the previous series of battles, except for the two times when Liu Boshan took action, the northwest frontier army was suppressed by the grassland royal court on the way to magic. Chai Tiannuo once thought that there were only a few magic masters in the northwest and even the entire Dahua.
But when he saw him today, his previous speculation was completely overturned. It turned out that he was just a master from the northwest.
"Master Liu, you are so bad. You didn't tell me you had such strong support, which made me almost write a suicide note!"
The corners of Liu Yancheng's mouth curled up slightly:
"It's not interesting to have calm days. Only when you have some surprises occasionally can you realize the splendor of life."
Chai Tiannuo looked Liu Yancheng up and down, but he never imagined that this vulgar guy could be so emotional in his heart.
