”Senior, it will take a bit too long to explain this. Please permit me to explain it to you later. But Senior, you must remember that no one except you and I can know about this. Not even the Great Generals can know.
”Whether we can defeat Arabia and protect the Central Plains will all depend on Senior!” Wang Chong solemnly said.
He had spent countless days and nights on the contents of the diagram. There was nothing wrong with it theoretically, but not even he was sure of how effective or practical it would actually be. However, he could only try.
”I understand!”
The Formation Elder solemnly put the diagram away.
”Leave this matter to me! I will do my utmost!”
”Mm!”
Wang Chong nodded. He had no doubts about the Formation Elder's strength.
”I've prepared three thousand men for you. These men are yours to command, and I've also readied all the resources. I'll entrust this task to you, Senior!”
The Formation Elder quickly left with the diagram.
Rumble!
Not long after the Formation Elder left, the earth suddenly began to sway, and then a massive energy accompanied by the roaring of massive beasts came from the northwest.
Fierce vibrations traveled through the earth.
The entire City of Steel began to shudder like a plank on the ocean.
The city instantly went deathly silent, and countless eyes turned toward the Arab base in the northwest.
Standing in the hall, Wang Chong also turned to the northwest. Even though his vision was blocked by the walls, Wang Chong could distinctly sense guards radiating cruel and brutal energy, and in the middle of these guards was a vast destructive power like a massive volcano.
All the Governors and Deputy Governors, Abu Muslim included, paled in comparison to this power.
”Khatabah!”
As this name came to mind, Wang Chong's face turned grim.
The supreme commander of the Arab forces, the instigator of this war, had finally arrived on the battlefield!
This also meant that all of the Arab soldiers had finally arrived.
The battle was on the verge of breaking out!
……
Several hundred li away, the Arab base was shaking as a steel flood made of countless soldiers rushed toward it.
The massive Behemoths stood out amidst this army like looming mountains.
And amongst all the Behemoths, the golden elephant Behemoth stood out the most.
”The eastern world… I've finally arrived!”
In front of the golden tent on the back of the Behemoth, Hierophant Khatabah stood with his arms spread open. As he stared at the scene before him, his eyes burned with ambition.
To conquer the world and make it bask in the glory of Arabia was his lifelong desire. But a certain accident several decades ago had put a stop to his ambitions.
But as time passed, he was finally able to appear in the lands he had dreamed about and fulfill his last unrealized dream.
”Hierophant!”
”Hierophant!”
”Hierophant!”
The millions of Arab soldiers got down from their mounts and kneeled to the Hierophant, their expressions brimming with respect and reverence.
Roooar!
The Behemoths roared, and in front of the golden tent, Khatabah slightly nodded and then ordered the Behemoth to slowly come forward.
The entire world trembled at its approach.
Khatabah did not pause, and his mount soon made its way through more than half the base to arrive in front of the domed fortress at the very front. From there, his eyes looked toward the southeast, where the gleaming silver of the enemy base was.
The steel defensive line that extended for several hundred li and the disciplined army behind it exuded strength and power, even in Khatabah's eyes.
