Warhorses neighed as Jiaosiluo led thousands of Tibetan cavalry charging up the mountain slope. This immediately had an effect on the two sides fighting on the mountain.
Neeeeigh!
A warhorse flew forward as one with its rider, and a heavy hoof smashed against the shield of a Tang soldier. With a scream, the soldier was sent flying into the air by the massive impact.
Bangbangbangbang!
One Tibetan cavalryman after another charged up the slope, and with each one, another Great Tang soldier would be sent flying. Cavalry was the most powerful fighting force on the continent, so the power the Tibetan cavalry were able to display far surpassed that of the Whitestone Corps.
Even though their speed was inhibited by the terrain and the metal walls, the Tibetan cavalry were still able to display more power than the Mengshe Zhao soldiers.
”Anyone who stops me dies!”
There was a heaven-shaking roar as the Swordfanged Beast of the Five Tiger Generals, Jiaosiluo, charged into battle. Boom! A massive explosion with Jiaosiluo at the center rippled through the battlefield.
”Aaaaah!”
All the soldiers of the Annan Protectorate army in the area were thrown aside together with mud, rock and gravel, and even a few Whitestone Corps soldiers who were too slow to dodge.
Clang!
Even a few of those massive metal walls were pulled out of the earth by this explosion, crashing back down onto the Annan Protectorate army.
”Die for me!”
Jiaosiluo's helmet suddenly exploded, his hair wildly flying in the air. He leaped off his horse, vanishing into the ranks of the Annan Protectorate army. Boom! A massive Halo of Thorns began to expand through the crowd.
”Aaaaah!”
Shrill screams filled the air as the Tang soldiers were thrown around like ragdolls. These Tang elites who had experienced so many battles were insignificant ants before a top-class general like Jiaosiluo.
Boomboomboom! Jiaosiluo jumped left and right, no one able to stop him. A Great Tang officer charged forward in an attempt to stop him, but he was still three zhang away when Jiaosiluo's plentiful Stellar Energy sent him flying with a jolt.
His chest was caving in while in midair, and he was already breathing his last.
”Hahaha, foul brat! All shitty tactics are nothing before absolute strength! Your death is certain today!”
Jiaosiluo seemed to be insane as he roared in Tibetan.
He was treating the Annan Protectorate army before him as a manifestation of Wang Chong, each individual as a Wang Chong through which he could vent his rage.
Bangbangbang!
Jiaosiluo was like a dragon in human form, slaughtering wherever he went and invigorating the Tibetan soldiers. The armored cavalry rushed behind him, inflicting heavy casualties on the Annan Protectorate army.
”Hahaha, this is all the Tang are!”
”Last time, they needed to rely on the rainstorm and the night. These bastards don't even dare to face us head-on!”
”You're completely right, hahaha!”
”Kill, kill them all!”
……
All the Tibetans immediately regained their energy, especially those who had experienced those two consecutive defeats with Jiaosiluo. Before the battle, each of them had a thick shadow hanging over their hearts, but now, this shadow was no more.
”Kiiiill!”
The arrival of the Tibetans had completely altered the course of this battle, and altered the balance of power between the Whitestone Corps and the Annan Protectorate army. In the northeast corner, wherever the Tibetans struck, the Tang lines would fall into utter chaos.
And once they sensed the changes brought about by the Tibetans, the Mengshe Zhao troops in the other areas also rallied.
”Everyone, don't be afraid! The Tibetans have moved out!”
”Hold! The Annan Protectorate army isn't invincible. The Tibetans are their bane!”
”Everyone, work hard! The Great Tang is about to lose! They can't be any match for us!”
……
All the Whitestone Corps soldiers had originally been fearful and only thinking about fleeing. Suddenly, however, their morale was revived, and one by one, they began to turn and fight back against the Annan Protectorate army.
And despite the fighting power of the Annan Protectorate army, it couldn't do anything against them for a few moments.
The situation had rapidly reversed, Mengshe and Ü-Tsang working together to put the Great Tang at an extreme disadvantage. Yet on the other side, Zhao Wujiang gave a faint smile.
”It really is as Young Master said. Ü-Tsang wasn't able to restrain itself!” Zhao Wujiang said as he listened to the fighting. Besides holding down Duan Wuzong, he had also received another order.
Everything was going as Wang Chong had predicted. Even the Tibetans had mobilized their forces at the exact time.
