At the foot of Hewu Mountain, the air was filled with a chilling atmosphere.
The Shenwu Empire's 280,000 cavalry were neatly arranged in formation. Opposite them were millions of Xia Kingdom troops. As far as the eye could see, they were so densely packed that they couldn't be counted.
The two sides were facing each other, and no one took direct action. After all, a battle involving millions of people was no child's play.
Three days later, Li Junjie and Li Shuai sent someone to deliver news that the Emperor of the Lieyang Empire had sent a team of supervisors to investigate why the Shenwu West Gate had not been breached for several months.
Therefore, the nearly four-month formal war is over, and what is about to come is a bloody battle.
Leng Yan stood on horseback in front of the formation, his cloak behind him making a rustling sound.
The sound of horse hooves sounded behind him, and a deputy general in black armor rode forward slowly on a black horse.
"General, the equipment is ready. As soon as the battle begins, the fire dragon will directly cover their front line." The deputy general said softly.
"Let me tell you, today will be the decisive battle. If we can't stop our relatives and people behind us, we will all be lost." Leng Yan said word by word.
"I will obey the general's order." the deputy general shouted, cupping his fists, and then turned his horse's head to give the order.
"Tell me about the current situation." Leng Yan looked at the training staff on the other side and said, full of majesty at this time.
"Visually the number of people gathered by the opponent has exceeded one million. Now they are divided into ten square formations. I will boldly guess that they will use the moon-circling formation." The training staff said solemnly.
Leng Yan immediately thought of the moon-circling formation offensive in his mind, compared the positions of the Lieyang Empire again, and nodded.
"How should we respond?" Leng Yan asked.
In fact, for the commander, he should not ask the training staff, but when it comes to the life and death of hundreds of thousands of brothers, he still needs to discuss it with the training staff.
"There are two ways to deal with the Moon Ring Formation. One is the long snake formation, which goes straight towards their central position, and the other is the Seven-Star Beidou Formation." The training staff thought for a moment and said.
"I know about the long snake formation, but the disparity in the strength of the two sides is too great. Even if our army is brave and good at fighting, I'm afraid we will get dumped." Leng Yan shook his head and said.
"Then there is only the Seven-Star Beidou Formation." The training staff member responded.
"Tell me more about it." Leng Yan frowned. He had never heard of this battle formation.
"As the name suggests, the team is divided into seven formations, namely Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang, and Yaoguang."
"Place the formation as the Big Dipper, use Tianshu to withstand the opponent's right-moving attack, and form a spoon shape between Tianshu and Tianji, so that you can surround the enemy who rushes in."
"The rest of the star array moves backwards away from the opponent, making it impossible for the opponent to surround the moon."
"This is the Seven-Star Beidou Formation. It is... newly researched by me." The training staff carefully explained to Leng Yan.
Leng Yan nodded and looked at the training staff with eyes full of approval.
"I'll do as you say. I've seen you lead a team to practice this battle formation before. Yes, it's really useful to prevent it before it happens!"
"Buzz..." Suddenly, a charge horn sounded in the direction of the Lieyang Empire in the distance.
"Ha..." Millions of people roared, and the sound echoed through the sky in an instant, and even the earth trembled.
"Set up the formation..." Leng Yan's momentum was not weak, and he shouted directly with his extraordinary level of cultivation.
"Drink..." But the momentum of the 80,000 divine warriors army is not weak at all, and even many of the horses under their crotches have begun to snort continuously.
As soon as the shouts stopped, the Shenwu army changed their formations in a well-trained manner, and soon a winding formation was formed, which looked like the shape of the Big Dipper when viewed from a high altitude.
"Cross..." The Lieyang Army began to advance, their spears straightened and their steps steady.
"Prepare...for battle..." Leng Yan shook his spear and shouted.
At this moment, a sharp arrow suddenly shot out, targeting the head of Leng Yan who was riding on the horse.
This scene was so sudden that no one could react and could only watch the cold arrows being fired at the general.
Unexpectedly, Leng Yan didn't even look at it. He directly raised his left hand and grabbed the Leng arrow. The tip of the arrow was less than five centimeters away from his eyebrows.
"Young man." Leng Yan broke the arrow with one hand and threw it to the ground.
"Kill..." Leng Yan pointed his spear directly at Lieyang's army and shouted.
"kill......"
"Buzz..."
The war trumpet sounded, the sound of horse hooves shook the earth, and the Shenwu cavalry swept towards the Lieyang army like a black torrent.
The soaring fighting spirit seemed to be solidified, and a gloomy and murderous aura shrouded the heads of the Shenwu Iron Cavalry as they charged forward.
"Shoot..." Leng Yan took the lead and shouted loudly. As soon as he finished speaking, the bow strings behind him rang continuously, and the sharp arrows on the Great Wall turned into black clouds and flew towards the army of the burning sun in front of them.
"Boom..." The bowstring sounded again, and black clouds shot out again.
"Get ready to fight..." Leng Yan shouted again, and the sound of his inner strength spread far and wide.
In an instant, there was a clang sound, and all the Shenwu cavalry directly lifted their spears and clamped them under their armpits, their spear tips glowing with cold light.
Soon, the two armies collided together. The shock for a moment was indescribable. Everywhere you looked, you could see the silhouettes.
Leng Yan took the lead, opening and closing the spear in his hand to sweep around.
The shouts of killing were loud at the foot of Hewu Mountain, and the blood gathered into a small river and flowed into the distance. They were not afraid of death for their mission. At this moment, they represented their beliefs.
Leng Yan devoted himself wholeheartedly to the battle, and shot a Grandmaster-level warrior from the Lieyang Empire to death with one shot. Blood splashed all over his face, and he shouted loudly. At this moment, he was like a murderer.
The army of the Lieyang Empire kept approaching, and the Shenwu cavalry resisted desperately, but the camp was eventually overwhelmed. A group of people jumped off their horses to fight on their own, and the entire battlefield instantly became chaotic.
The war horses of the Yang Family Army seemed to be intelligent. Although their owners dismounted, they were not scared away by the battlefield. Instead, they stuck close to their owners and protected them with their heavy armor.
"Boom, boom, boom..." Suddenly, there was a loud noise in the distance, and huge rocks with flames smashed over. The target was the Fluctuating Light Array, one of the seven-star arrays of the Shenwu Empire.
"Escape! Avoid!" A shout rang out from the Fluttering Light Array, and the Shenwu cavalry sidled on the side of the war horse, and the war horse spread its hooves and began to gallop.
When a huge boulder falls, it is difficult to hit a soldier directly. At most, the splashed gravel will make a sound when it hits the heavy armor of the war horse.
"Boom, boom, boom" explosions followed, accompanied by screams. Some soldiers who could not escape were unfortunately hit.
"These beasts deserve to die..." Leng Yan looked towards the direction of the Fluttering Light Array and cursed angrily. Looking at the miserable condition of the dead soldiers, he could no longer suppress the anger in his heart.
"Boom, boom, boom..." The fireball hit again, this time it was an indiscriminate attack, and Leng Yan happened to be standing in the fireball coverage area.
Fireballs exploded around him, but he was not afraid. He kept fighting with his red eyes and gun in hand.
