As wave after wave of energy surged through his body, Wang Chong felt an unprecedented pleasure. This was war. The Stone of Destiny might not have been able to immediately give him power, but it seemed like it had been made for war.
He was still the War Saint!
And only war could grant him that most powerful strength.
At this moment, Wang Chong's mind was crystal-clear.
”All forces, advance!”
Seeing the Tibetan army in chaos, Wang Chong put aside tactics and strategy, giving the order for a full assault. The Tibetans were already crumbling, and an army in turmoil could pose no threat to the Great Tang. Everything Wang Chong had done was to prepare for a full offense, to put the enemy army under an enormous pressure.
He wanted their army to be completely wiped out and beaten into the ground.
Rumble! Once Wang Chong issued his order, the two armies in the northeast and southeast transformed into an avalanche, relinquishing all defense and beginning an all-out assault. The shield soldiers, axemen, spearmen, and all the other soldiers charged forward.
”Aaaaah!”
Screams filled the air as horses thudded to the ground. In both the northeast and southeast, the Tibetans had truly fallen into a complete rout.
”Congratulations to user for killing 31977 Tibetans!”
”Congratulations to user for killing 33455 Tibetans!”
”Congratulations to user for killing 36703 Tibetans!”
……
”Congratulations to user for killing 39911 Tibetans!”
……
In a few short moments, a string of messages built up like a rolling snowball in Wang Chong's mind. Now that Wang Chong had committed the entire Annan Protectorate army and his Bane of the Battlefield, the Tibetan army was truly being routed in a landslide, their casualties rapidly rising.
Thin streams of energy, as numerous as the hairs on a bull, surged across space-time toward the summit.
”Success!”
Wang Chong clenched his fists as he spread his arms apart, his mind raging with emotions. The Tibetan army numbered from seventy to eighty thousand. With the amount of soldiers he had crushed in the northeast and southeast, their army could no longer pose a threat to him.
”Damn it!”
Suddenly, a furious bellow filled with a murderous intent exploded over the summit like a clap of thunder. This voice clearly came from afar, yet it also sounded like it was right next to his ear. Wang Chong cringed, but before he could react, he heard a massive boom from the mountain below.
”Aaaaah!”
There was a fierce explosion that sent waves of energy in every direction. Midway up the mountain, where the Annan Protectorate army's attack was most intense and also where the Tibetan casualties were greatest, a massive energy burst out. Several dozen charging Tang cavalry screamed as they were sent flying with their horses.
In a flash, a massive hole had been opened in the dense ranks of the Annan Protectorate army.
”This is…!!”
Wang Chong's eyes widened as he instantly saw a muscular figure standing in that gap, glaring at him from the distance. This stare was so cold and murderous that it chilled Wang Chong to the bones.
But it was only for an instant, as that figure vanished. It was so quick that it seemed like an illusion.
Roar!
The wind suddenly howled, and the heaven-shaking roar of a tiger resounded in everyone's ears. Space began to twist in that gap in the ranks as the image of a white tiger as large as a small mountain manifested. A primitive, ancient, ruthless, and ferocious energy surged out, traveling where it pleased.
No!
This was no mere image!
Bang! Four claws struck down as a massive white tiger appeared in the middle of the Annan Protectorate army, more than three zhang high and around seven zhang long. This white tiger's muscles were bursting with a destructive energy.
A massive Halo of Thorns, perfect and pristine, sparkled under the white tiger's feet, perfectly complementing the metallic totems and mysterious tattoos on its back. The tiger exuded an aura of mystery that harkened to a bygone era.
Roar!
Its cold gaze locked on the summit as the white tiger swept its claws, sending five or six Great Tang cavalry flying like they were mere pebbles. And with a casual sweep of its tail, the entire formation collapsed.
”Not good—it's the Swordfanged Beast, Jiaosiluo!” Chen Shusun said with a grave voice as he drew his saber and stepped in front of Wang Chong.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
At almost the same time, the bodyguards on the summit pulled out their own sabers and swords and formed ranks, standing with solemn expressions in front of Wang Chong.
The job of bodyguards was to protect the general, so they did not take part in the battle.
The safety of the commander-in-chief far outweighed the loss of a single soldier!
Roooaaar!
