Chapter 1227: War Begins
"It's begun!" Barak looked at the sun about to set on the distant horizon.
When the last ray of sunlight disappeared, Barak said to the Peacock Legion Captain beside him.
"It's your turn!" Barak glanced at Peacock, a complex look flashing in his eyes.
This is the only Kushan legion that can forcibly suppress all the legions of the Northern Gui, especially after it has reached the level of three talents. Currently, no Kushan legion can defeat the other side.
However, the enemy will not leave the city in this battle. This is Atel's bottom line. The Imperial Scepter can be sent out, but Peacock and Arvind's personal guards cannot. These two legions are Atel's last line of defense for defending the mountain pass.
However, although it cannot leave, Peacock has a unique way to participate in the battle, and beyond visual range is used at times like this.
"Ready your javelin!"
The Peacock's commander didn't say much. He was just a tool, responsible for adjusting the viewing distance of the Peacock's clairvoyance when Rahul was away.
Anyway, the order he received was to obey Atair, so if Atair didn't let him leave the city, he wouldn't leave.
Although Atel was sidelined, Barak could not replace Atel as long as Atel was alive.
The biggest reason why Barak can command everyone now is that Atel himself is cooperating with Barak.
The night actually doesn’t have much significance for both sides, because it won’t be long before it turns into daytime due to the means of both sides.
However, Barak still chose to launch the attack at night because he had some other ideas and the night was a good cover.
Hundreds of powerful arrows were shot towards Cao Ren's camp. What was more important was that although they were arrows flying at super high speed, there was not even the slightest whistling sound of tearing the air apart, and the blackened feathers were completely hidden in the darkness at this time.
Peacock's arrows have surpassed their previous limits and are more terrifying than ever.
However, such an arrow that was powerful enough to penetrate the shield and armor of a shield guard had no effect at all on Dian Wei.
An arrow hit Dian Wei's body, and several sparks flew out from the tip of the arrow. Then Xu Chu on the side clearly saw the arrow bend into an arc and then bounce out.
"Huo, brother, your body is becoming more and more terrifying!" Xu Chu picked up the arrow on the ground and took a look. This thing is useless to top powerhouses like them without the cloud.
The two of them had even discovered the arrow when it was still in the air, so they appeared in this place.
However, Xu Chu was still a little surprised that Dian Wei was able to use his body to resist.
"It's not enough!" Dian Wei said with a dark face. He traveled thousands of miles to come here alone just to make a further step in the war.
If only Lu Bu had surpassed him before, he could still comfort himself, but now, he was directly thrown out of the first echelon, which was unacceptable to Dian Wei.
So Dian Wei came here, took over an infantry battalion, and planned to make further progress on the battlefield.
He did not choose the shield guard, because what he wanted was not defense, but charge. Only by rushing to the most dangerous place can he make further progress.
"Send a signal, the Kushans should attack!" Dian Wei picked up his pair of short spears and walked towards his legion.
"So reliable!" Xu Chu broke the arrows in his hand, and then launched a legion attack towards the sky.
"Let's begin!" Cao Ren stepped out of the camp and ran to the command platform as soon as possible.
This war was to be fought in the camp, so Cao Ren had already prepared a place that was most suitable for command and could overlook the overall situation to the greatest extent.
Not long after the arrow attack, the Kushan army arrived, or rather they were on the way. Peacock's arrows were more like a signal to launch a night attack.
"Boom!" The legion's attack blew up the outer wall of the camp. The hastily built camp could not ignore the bombardment of the legion's attack like a city wall, even with the weakening of the clouds.
Two gaps were opened in the outer wall, and the Kushan soldiers rushed in like a tide.
"Enemy attack, kill them!"
Dian Wei roared loudly, then raised his shield, activated his legion talent, and decisively used the power liberation for his soldiers. Then he led the infantry battalion soldiers to launch a counterattack against the Kushan soldiers who were attacking the camp.
The camp arranged by Cao Ren was very good, but Cao Ren deliberately left two gaps to lure the enemy into a trap, where the teams led by Dian Wei and Xu Chu were stationed respectively.
The Kushans did not refuse. Both sides knew that this night attack was meaningless, so the Kushans launched an attack directly along the gap.
Just like the opening of a game of Go, most situations are the same and there is no magic move.
"Prepare the spiral spearmen's formation." Seeing Dian Wei and his men rushing over, Kabechi decisively ordered the spiral soldiers to launch an assault .
As the Kushans' spiral spearmen with guaranteed combat effectiveness, they immediately formed a small square formation of spears after rushing into the camp and then launched an assault.
"Die!" Dian Wei carried a tower shield taller than a man and rushed directly into the forest of guns.
Relying on the strong physical fitness that is firmly ranked among the top three in the world, or even the best in the world, and the terrifying power brought by the legion's talent to unleash the shackles of strength.
Combined with the shield that is comparable to a city wall, it is an absolute defense that is impossible to penetrate without special attack methods.
The spiral lancers have strong attack power. Theoretically, they are quite likely to pierce through the shield and armor of the shield guards. However, the weapons used by the spiral lancers are completely meaningless against the wall shield in Dian Wei's hands.
Even with the enhanced talent, the Spiral Lancer's spear head naturally shattered after hitting Dian Wei's shield at super high speed and high rotation.
He endured the dazzling sparks from being hit by the Spiral Lancers all the way, and then rolled over the Spiral Lancers' front line like a steamroller.
Dozens of people were seriously injured and fell to the ground on the spot. It was not until two boundary-breaking gods and Buddhas rushed up and took Dian Wei's fatal collision that they managed to stop Dian Wei's charge.
Led by Dian Wei, all the veterans of the infantry battalion slammed heavily into the Kushan's advancing spiral spearmen with tons of force.
The spearmen who had been pouring into the camp like a tide were suddenly driven out at an even faster speed.
"Die!" Dian Wei roared, and the heavy shield, pushed by his own terrifying force, slammed heavily into the body of the World-Breaking God and Buddha.
In just a moment, the gods and Buddhas that were hit died on the spot, and their death was extremely peaceful. Until they were resurrected later, they were still immersed in the shadow of being crushed to death.
This is also the disadvantage of fine-tuning. It is difficult to completely eliminate some guys who use fancy methods.
"What kind of monster is this!" Kabechi's scalp tingled, and he froze when he saw the gods and Buddhas who were defeated by Dian Wei with one punch each.
Dian Wei, wielding a large shield, was like a god of war. Facing the siege of hundreds of spiral spearmen, he did not retreat but advanced instead, and almost pushed the battle line out by himself.
As one of the most powerful cultivators in the world, such strength is not exaggerated at all. Cultivation itself gives one an advantage on the battlefield, not to mention a super strong man like Dian Wei who has trained his internal energy throughout his body.
It was completely unstoppable, and the spear's stabs were completely ineffective, whether from the front or the side. The shield was made of solid steel.
This is a super-killing weapon that only a terrifying monster like Dian Wei can use.
"No, it's totally unstoppable!"
Kabechi turned his head and shouted, the spiral spearmen's front line has no meaning at all to Dian Wei and the infantry battalion. Pure physical confrontation is so violent. If you can't penetrate the opponent, then everything is nonsense.
The veterans in the infantry battalion are already the top of the Imperial Guards, and with the krypton gold-winning package prepared by Chen Xi, there is no difference between them and the three talents.
Originally there was only an infantry battalion, and the spiral spearmen could also fight, as they were also the royal guards. The two sides should have been evenly matched, and at the very least there would have been a fierce battle. However, because Dian Wei was unstoppable, the battle line was pushed directly out of the camp.
The super warrior showed his terrifying power to the fullest in the local war, especially when the clouds of both sides had not yet been completely entangled together, and Dian Wei's terrifying strength had not yet been completely suppressed, and he would kill gods and Buddhas.
"Ah?" Cao Ren was stunned at the command platform, looking at Dian Wei who had driven out the Kushans. The script was now messed up .
He had originally prepared a package of measures, but the premise was based on the Kushans rushing in. Dian Wei directly pushed them away, so how could he carry out his next plan?
However, Cao Ren quickly calmed himself down. Anything could happen on the battlefield, so Cao Ren adopted an tolerant attitude towards minor accidents.
At least Dian Wei remembered that he did not rush out. Since Dian Wei is fine, he will deal with Xu Chu first.
Xu Chu's side perfectly matched Cao Ren's qualities. The shield guards fought and retreated, and he put the spiral spearmen and Kushan regular soldiers into the camp. But the next moment, the sharp warriors suddenly attacked from all corners. After slashing more than a dozen times in just a few seconds, they chose to run away without even looking back.
In just a few seconds, more than a hundred guards were killed. This loss almost drove Falgon, the commander, crazy.
He knew the Rui Shi's weaknesses, so he chose to counter with rain of arrows without hesitation.
"Protect with the rain of arrows!" Falgon roared, and the arrows from his soldiers fell like raindrops, but the sharp soldiers avoided them perfectly with the help of the facilities prepared by Cao Ren. As for the shield guards who did not dodge, they did not care about such a rain of arrows.
Although the speed was extremely fast, the damage was almost zero, and they were too lazy to even raise their shields.
"Haha, welcome the dragnet I have set for you!" Cao Ren smiled like a villain.
He likes to use Rui Shi very much, so he naturally prepared a stage for Rui Shi.
The Spiral Lancers unconsciously advanced forward under the push of their comrades behind them.
But the sharp warriors jumping out from the corners and tunnels made them miserable. Even though Falgon had sufficient reserves of arrows, he couldn't kill all his own people.
"I'll do it!" Balas said in a deep voice. Falgon glanced at Balas and nodded. The other party's ability was indeed suitable. Although he was a little unwilling, Falgon did not act pretentiously and immediately ordered his headquarters to give way to Balas.
The next moment, Baras's legion shot countless invisible arrows directly in the direction of the Spiral Lancers.
The unprepared warrior jumped out as usual, and ended up being hit by these invisible arrows.
When these arrows hit the spiral spearmen, they only felt pain, but when they hit the sharp soldiers, it was a real disaster. The pain caused by countless fine needles piercing various parts of their bodies made their movements unconsciously deformed.
Compared to the Spiral Lancers, they have been trained to be hit. Even if they do not have the ability to attack and defend with their will, they have at least experienced this attack mode. Therefore, even if it is quite painful after being hit, it is not fatal.
The sharp soldiers had no intention of taking a beating. Their almost instantaneous deformation caused a gap in their smooth attack and movement. The spiral spearmen seized the opportunity to counterattack, and many sharp soldiers died on the spot.
The remaining warriors retreated quickly, but Baras kept his eyes on them.
"I caught you!" Balas said faintly, and an obscure silver light naturally appeared on the bowstring. This was the state in which the arrow of will took shape.
In their eyes, the sharp warriors, who were so fast that they could not be seen clearly, looked like motionless wooden stakes.
"middle!"
Under the guaranteed hit effect of will locking, more than half of the rapidly retreating warriors were killed, and only those old warriors who concealed their spirit in swords escaped with a flash of the sword in their hands.
“Damn it!” Cao Ren’s face turned dark instantly. The Kushans actually had a sound-shooting version of Changshui?
What a joke, how could there be such an outrageous legion of archers capable of large-scale will attacks?
However, Cao Ren quickly adjusted his strategy, and he vaguely understood why the Rui Shi had withdrawn from the stage. Just like the chariots, it was not that they were not powerful, but in most cases, they would be restricted by realistic conditions.
In such a large-scale battlefield, the Sharp Warriors have too many natural enemies. Even the Royal Guards and even the Sharp Warriors with three talents will be evaporated by various area attacks.
Even though he cleverly used the camp to prevent the Sharpshooters from being attacked by rain of arrows, he still couldn't avoid the Sharpshooters' fragile nature.
"Are shield guards, the city wall troops of the future?" Cao Ren had a headache. Compared to defense, he really liked offense.
"Counter the rain of arrows. Order the left wing Sharp Soldiers to evacuate the ambush site. All Sharp Soldiers retreat to the central camp area. The reserve troops advance. The crossbows begin firing. After firing, retreat immediately!"
Although Cao Ren had mixed feelings, his face remained expressionless as he quickly issued a series of orders.
Cao Ren's order was also quite correct. When the crossbow and other weapons were fired, powerful arrows immediately fell from the sky and directly smashed the crossbow. The existence of the peacock meant that there could be no fixed objects.
Cao Ren himself jumped away from the command platform, and the next second the command platform was smashed to pieces by dozens of arrows. Even with the shield embedded in it, it still couldn't withstand the outrageous impact of Peacock.
"Trouble!" Cao Ren jumped onto his second command platform and looked at the battlefield with a serious expression.
The Kushans' response was clearly well prepared. His tight net might not necessarily cause much trouble to the Kushans, and the outcome would ultimately depend on Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Dun, and Xu Huang.
