Mythical Three Kingdoms

Although there was still no way to deal with the frenzied assault of the Rattan Armored Soldiers, at least their astonishing destructive power was firmly locked within the two regiments commanded by Monnari and Sharuk.

As for Wutugu’s incredible brute force, it was completely ineffective under Monnari and Sharuk’s hit-and-run combat style, and instead, he was thoroughly constrained there, unable to cause significant damage.

In the left wing of the Han army, after Zhang Ren forcefully dismantled the Kushan left wing, Kushan Commander Brack informed Shantanu to be vigilant, and Shantanu himself, being a commander of exceptional resilience, although his attack wasn’t strong, he relied on his tenacity to firmly hold the line, causing the assaults by Meng Huo and E Huan to be fruitless.

Of course, after activating the Belief Blessing of Trailokyavijaya Vidyaraja, his originally formidable tenacity became almost invincible under such terrifying empowerment, causing Meng Huo and E Huan to struggle against such attacks, finding it difficult to maintain a continuous offensive, to the extent that Shantanu began to switch to defense, launching a counterattack to suppress the Han army’s offensive.

Very soon, the three advantageous attack points of the Han army were all resisted by Kushan’s formidable defense, and through ongoing small-scale thrust counterattacks, Kushan dismantled all three Han advantages, causing the Han army’s three major attack points to show signs of exhaustion.

After suppressing the only three advantageous attack points of the Han army, the other four pathways in the Kushan main force, which had been holding back their fangs, immediately launched attacks at the connection points between the Han army’s left and right wings and the central army.

These four pathways, after suppressing all the current attack methods of the Han army, finally displayed their true colors, acting like sharp blades viciously skewing into the connection points between the Han army’s left and right wings and the central army.

Almost instantly, the Han army, which had its only counterattack methods suppressed, suffered a severe blow. Four huge breaches were torn open on the Han army’s battle formation, and subsequently, countless Kushan soldiers seized the chaos to charge in, striving to widen the breaches on the Han army’s formation.

As for Wutugu and his Rattan Armored Soldiers in the central army, in this Kushan dispatch, they were completely enveloped at the core of the Kushan formation.

At this moment, countless Sword and Shield Infantry from the rear of the Han central army surged out, desperately intercepting the scissor-like cuts of the four Kushan blades, causing the entire formation to naturally begin to concave inward, whereas Brack commanded all Kushan forces to start retracting inward, concentrating forces along the breach in the Han’s main formation, attempting to shred the Han’s formation.

”This dismantling speed is even more formidable than I expected, but fortunately...” Yan Yan continuously assessed the rate at which Kushan’s four main forces were damaging their central and rear army, ”Order Wu Yi’s Sword and Shield Soldiers and Li Hui’s Heavy Crossbow Operators to prepare!”

”I can change the battle formation one more time, so I ask everyone to do your utmost.” At this moment, Yan Yan solemnly looked at Zhang Su, Zhang Song, and others, saying.

”We will certainly exert all efforts.” Zhang Su and others took a deep breath to calm their mindset.

Kushan has their killing moves, but the Han Empire has military strategies and formations honed since the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, so they have their secret moves in reserve. Although these moves would be certain death if used in the Central Plains, Kushan’s Cloud Qi has already been depleted by more than half, so what is there to fear?

At this moment, Brack’s banners continually changed, showing the splendor of the nine divisions under his command along with his dispatches.

”Charge!” Banat led the way, breaking through the final defense line of the Han central army, rushing into the Han rear army, and accompanied by this roar, the Kushan generals and officers tangled with the Han central army also unleashed their full combat power, breaking free from the Han central army’s entanglements within a few breaths.

As these four main forces rushed out from the Han central army, the Han central army, which still had some resistance capabilities, was entirely fragmented into five disconnected sections, and countless Kushan elite soldiers, interspersed within these four channels, began madly infiltrating the Han forces on both sides of the passage as that roar echoed.

”Phew...” Brack looked at the battlefront ahead, exhaled long with a complex expression of loss and excitement, gazing far at the battlefield for a long while, and then when the Han central army began to be dismantled, Brack issued a new military command with a sigh, ”Order the whole army to press forward, crushing the Han army!”

”The Han Empire…” Hirilah stood on the carriage frame, looking with disappointment at the Han army fragmented into five parts but still struggling, muttering to himself.

”Is this all the Han Empire has to offer?” Leiblalei said with a hint of sigh, ”The most powerful empire of the previous era, has it fallen like this?”

”I don’t believe, at this point, that any nation’s army would still have combat power when its central army has been split into pieces,” Sulapri shook his head and said, ”If any force had to be fought down to the last soldier before losing the ability to fight, then all our maneuvers would be meaningless.”

”Indeed, but such forces might only be the Military Spirit Legions, and even our Kushan Empire now only has a Military Spirit contingent of fewer than three thousand, whereas if the opposing Han army were all Military Spirit Soldiers, would they still be in such a state?” Leiblalei laughed heartily and said.

”Military Spirit Soldiers, huh?” Brack slowly shook his head, ”I wonder if the Feathered Forest Guards of the Han Empire still exist. If even the Feathered Forest Guards have disappeared, then the Han Empire’s current power would only be a piece of fat meat.”

”The Feathered Forest Guards, the trusted aides of the two successive Champion Marquises, I wonder which one the Han Dynasty retains now. If any still exist, the Han still wields considerable power, and if all three still exist, we’d be powerful enough to suppress the region!” Hirilah slowly shook his head, voicing his thoughts.

”Pursue the routed enemy, establish remarkable feats, and inscribe stone of Yanran!” Leiblalei said with a sarcastic smile, ”These three Military Spirit Legions, all inherited an expression from the Han Empire, possessing such terrifying combat power, indeed.”

On the other hand, Yan Yan’s expression was solemn. With belief empowerment and coordination, the combat power shown by the Kushan elite soldiers was inexplicably surpassing Kushan itself.

This surpassing was not due to individual quality, but due to coordination, where the power forged from envisioning the same God and Buddha created an internal link among them, and this manifested into shockingly exceptional coordination for the Han army.

Fortunately, such coordination was only between hundreds of people, and only those who achieved Qi Refining to Gang and led their advancing comrades possessed it, and in this Kushan force, fewer than a hundred had reached Qi Refining to Gang, thus this terrifying coordination was exhibited in only less than ten thousand forces.

Otherwise, Yan Yan would decisively abandon command and cease struggling; such almost intimate coordination would suffice for these people to rival the top elite of the Han Empire fighting in the North. Although unable to reach the terrifying level of super elite, considering belief empowerment and their perfect coordination, it remains a formidable challenge even for the top elite of the Han dynasty.

”Order King Mulu to prepare for action, Deng Xian, Ling Bao, Liu Gui, and Wu Lan execute the command with full force as previously ordered, victory or defeat is all in this occasion!” Yan Yan deeply inhaled and issued the earliest agreed-upon command to the drummers, and having conserved his energy until now, it was also time for Yan Yan to step forth and decide victory or defeat.

Following Yan Yan’s order, the drums, which had been silent for a long time at the rear of the Han Empire’s army, resounded once more, this drum sound spread across the field, allowing all the observers from small nations, as well as some of the battlefield’s hostile soldiers, to hear it clearly; these are the drums of a decisive battle, or perhaps, the drums of a desperate struggle.
