Chapter 1231: Reversal of the Balance
"Oh no!" When Hua Xiong saw the battlefield, he saw Le Jin and Cao Ren being chased and beaten, and the cloud of the entire camp was almost dispersed.
"Brothers, follow me!" Hua Xiong shook his gun and gave the order loudly. As he spoke, Hua Xiong had already led Feixiong to charge towards the opposite side.
“It’s coming so fast!”
Barak frowned. After Cao Ren was seriously injured, Li Dian took over the command. To Barak's surprise, Li Dian's command ability was not weak, and might even be slightly stronger than Cao Ren.
The breakthrough in the front line on his side not only failed to change the situation, but made it even more confusing. Now that the Han Dynasty Army Soul Corps has arrived, if nothing unexpected happens, the Spiral Spearmen will definitely not be their opponents. He must dismantle the front line faster.
"Order the magic room to activate the camp's great magic to limit the Han army's ultimate combat effectiveness in multiple layers." With the arrival of Feixiong, Kapil directly activated the secret magic to notify Atel in the back.
"Got it!" Atel did not refuse Kapil's request.
"Follow me!" Hua Xiong roared.
"Kill!" Flying Bear, holding a saber, burst out with a combat power far beyond what it had before. With a leap, he controlled gravity and flew directly over the heads of Le Jin and the others, and landed directly on the Spiral Spearmen.
"Use the Imperial Scepter to fully exert its power and delay the time as much as possible!"
Barak gave orders to Kapil, and at this time Kapil had already shown some signs of hesitation , but it was not too serious. After all, he had overcome a lot and was still in an advantageous position on the situation.
Kapil is still considered one of the top smart people in the world.
"Order the scimitar cavalry to attack. " Barak revealed a trump card, and the undercover who delivered the message to the Han Dynasty was Atel himself.
Last time, Atel used the defeat of the barbarians to make the Han Dynasty further certain that there was no cavalry in the north of the Kushan Empire, and then they formulated a series of plans.
However, many cavalrymen simply followed Temujin and after arriving at Peshawar, they returned to the large military camp behind the mountain pass, and this time followed Barak to attack directly.
Under the cover of night, the Kushans concealed too many secrets, and when these secrets were revealed, they brought considerable trouble to the Han Dynasty.
The Scimitar Rangers, who were blessed with the third talent, took advantage of the gap on Cao Ren's side to cross the camp directly and pounce on Hua Xiong. They were no match for Fei Xiong, but they could stop Fei Xiong's advance.
The dim earth-gray light above the earth quickly extended from the Kushan Central Camp and swept quickly along the ground towards the Han army. Li Dian, Dian Wei and others all felt a sense of restraint.
Hua Xiong snorted coldly. When the earth-gray light pressed towards Fei Xiong, it seemed as if it encountered an invisible barrier and dissipated directly.
The legions that have reached the military soul and three talents are, in most cases, immune to many negative effects.
This is also the biggest difference between them and the pseudo three talents and those so-called super elites.
The difference is that in 99% of the cases, they can exert the combat effectiveness of three talents, while the super elite and pseudo three-talent legions will have their combat effectiveness directly reduced after encountering the great secret technique when they are unprepared.
"I knew that the Kushans would use a weakening tactic like this again." Hua Xiong said with a sneer. I don't care what the effect is. Anything that is not recognized by my military soul will be ineffective.
If you want to defeat me, you have to rely on brute force. This method will never work.
"Be careful, the Kushans have prepared catapults!" Li Dian reported the news he saw in the front to Hua Xiong. Hua Xiong sneered disdainfully and didn't say anything more.
Although they are not the divine iron cavalry with the ultimate defense, their Feixiong is the genuine promotion route of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and their defense is also super hardcore.
In addition, the ability to control gravity can naturally restrain these so-called stone throwing attacks.
However, when the catapults behind the Kushans hurled out huge fireballs that fell over Hua Xiong, Hua Xiong really frowned. The Royal Scimitar Rangers in front were blocking the road, and they could only take this wave of fire attack.
With a twisted defensive stance on his head, Hua Xiong led Fei Xiong to directly disperse the Spiral Lancers, and then charged straight towards the Royal Scimitar Rangers.
These Scimitar Rangers are of the same type as Urdu's Scimitar Raiders, a type of medium to long-range cavalry.
The scimitar slashed and the extended arc was thrown out, with considerable lethality within several meters.
Combined with the rotating force field of the scimitar cavalry, the arc of the slash can even form a circle of offensive protection around the body. Taking into account the enhancement brought by the Imperial Scepter, the arc of the slash even cut through Feixiong's defensive position, leaving obvious scars on Feixiong's soldiers.
"How is this possible?" Wen Errong exclaimed in disbelief.
Wen Errong is the commander of this ranger group and one of the talents discovered by Masinde among the Kushans. He can be regarded as a younger version of Urdu. Although his talent is not as well developed as Urdu, the effect is equally good, and he is even more specialized in arc cutting.
The traces left by the scimitar will turn into real arcs and extend out, and have a very strong cutting effect, an extremely excellent talent effect. After deepening, the destructive power and extension width of the arc are greatly enhanced. It can be said to be an integrated offense and defense, but Hua Xiong took it directly on his face.
"What kind of monster is this!" Wen Errong gritted his teeth and condensed an arc of light on the heavy scimitar, then slashed at Hua Xiong's face again.
"Damn it, you're really getting me for nothing!" Hua Xiong was furious. He picked up the crossbow from his waist and pulled the trigger.
"Boom!" The power of the explosion was offset by the arc light, and Hua Xiong had already rushed in front of Wen Errong.
"Die for me!" Hua Xiong's gun tip was wrapped with the force of distorted gravity and smashed directly towards Wen Errong.
However, Wen Errong did not dodge, but instead chopped off the tip of Hua Xiong's spear with a single blow.
Hua Xiong was stunned for a moment as he looked at the cut-off gun tip, then he threw away the gun barrel that was left in his hand. With the help of gravity, he directly pierced a Scimitar Ranger.
"Interesting, tell me your name and I will erect a monument for you!" Hua Xiong took out a machete from behind his back.
At this distance, the horse-slaying sword cannot be used flexibly, and Hua Xiong can only use the infantry weapon at the bottom of the box. The situation is urgent, and Hua Xiong can't care about his noble cavalry image. The opponent is really a little tricky, so he has to activate the infantry combat mode.
If they cannot quickly defeat the legion in front of them, Li Dian and his surrounded men will be in great danger.
"Kill them!" Wen Errong has not yet realized the seriousness of the problem, and instead wants to kill Hua Xiong to prove himself.
Wen Errong's legion talent is fully deployed, similar to the legion talent effect of Guan Yu's sharp cutting, making the arc cutting by the Scimitar Ranger more lethal.
The Scimitar Ranger launched a large number of short- and medium-range attacks. The dim arcs of light whistled and slashed at the Flying Bear that was charging towards them. The Flying Bear's way of fighting was to fight head-on. Facing the large arcs of light cutting through, he swung the horse-slaying sword in his hand and slashed towards the opposite side. What was there to be afraid of? It's not like he hasn't seen opponents more terrifying than you. Go ahead!
At one time, countless horse-cutting swords were cut off, but only a few Feixiong soldiers were hacked to death.
"Throw away all your weapons and attack with the machete!" Hua Xiong activated Feixiong's military soul power.
A winged tiger appeared roaring, and then the Flying Bear soldier threw the severed saber in his hand. Accelerated by gravity, it did not seem like a random attack, but rather a standard throwing strike.
The Scimitar Ranger counterattacked with a large number of arcs, but this time he was smashed head-on by the Flying Bear, which was twisting its stance against gravity. Then he slashed at his opponent with a heavy machete with a terrifying blow that was enough to blow his opponent to pieces.
Countless torn arcs of light created a large amount of sparks on the armor of the Iron Cavalry, leaving behind a series of tiny scratches. This was a powerful attack that even the Iron Cavalry rarely saw.
However, Fei Xiong, who gave up the dignity of a cavalryman and switched to infantry combat mode, simply could not match the basic combat power of the Royal Rangers, whose three talents were enhanced with the help of external forces.
The Royal Rangers could only injure the flying bear, but it was still a long way from killing it.
On the other hand, Fei Xiong, no matter whether the opponent is parrying or blocking, as long as he can hit the opponent, he can immediately destroy the opponent with heavy force.
Under Fei Xiong's violent breakthrough, the Royal Rangers were unable to stop Fei Xiong. Hua Xiong led Fei Xiong to tear a gap in the Royal Rangers' defense line and left directly.
"Waste!" Barak cursed angrily as he looked at the flying bear that joined the battle and blocked his way to kill Li Dian and his men.
The two three-talent legions, when joined together, have the capital to hunt down military souls, but now they can't even stop each other. What are they if not trash?
However, Barak knew that cursing was useless now. Facing a Military Soul Legion that could not be weakened by them, he could only dispatch two more three-talent legions to encircle and block it. If he let Fei Xiong kill, it would not be a siege, but a breakthrough.
But it’s good that Feixiong came. If we can kill a military soul legion of the Han Dynasty, then it will be worth it even if we lose the battle this time.
Now Feixiong himself has entered the encirclement, with a total of four three-talent legions attacking from the front and back. Even the Military Soul Legion will not be safe and sound.
But the golden-armored warrior who rushed over to him shattered Barak's ambition. Looking at the golden-armored warrior who walked with long legs and whose speed was even comparable to that of cavalry, Barak could only allocate a spiral spearman to snipe the opponent.
Facing the Military Soul Corps of the Han Dynasty, he had few options, and in most cases he could only use the spiral spearmen to exchange their lives for injuries.
Then he gathered all his strength to surround and kill Fei Xiong, but since Fei Xiong was not vulnerable to long-range attacks, the rate of loss was extremely slow. It was because he had mobilized too much strength to surround and kill Fei Xiong.
Let Li Dian re-establish contact with Xu Chu and Dian Wei and stabilize the cloud energy again.
Moreover, Le Jin also freed up his hands and started to provide buffs to Li Dian and the others, making the battle situation even more confusing. Even Barak couldn't judge where the situation would go.
The game between the two sides is like a tug-of-war between two evenly matched opponents, and no one knows when the other side will lose its momentum.
At this moment, the battle situation has completely turned into a meat grinder, and both sides are in a complete stalemate.
But the divine cavalry that appeared on the horizon completely tipped the balance.
Barak was well aware of the capabilities of the Divine Iron Cavalry and had witnessed its power. Although it was a legion with insufficient attack power, because the opponent had achieved a miracle, their insufficient attack power was enough to tear apart the defenses of most legions.
Barak no longer had any more strength to stop the Divine Iron Cavalry and could only watch as the enemy approached the battlefield at an extremely slow speed.
"Let's retreat! Let's retreat! Barak, we lost!"
Kapil was visibly panicking. As a wise man, he could see more than others, so the moment the Divine Iron Cavalry appeared, Kapil knew that they had lost. Unless Atel came out with Arvind's personal guards to put out the fire, they would definitely lose.
"Shut up, Kapil!" Barak wanted to strangle Kapil to death. Doesn't this guy consider the occasion before speaking? Otherwise, you could use telepathy.
But it was too late. Kapil's shouting brought the morale of the Kushans to the freezing point.
When Kapil, who held the scepter of the empire, shouted this, Barak knew that they had lost even the last bit of hope of a miracle comeback.
"I'll settle the score with you when I get back!"
Barak was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, but he also knew what was wrong with Kapil. While Kapil was still normal and able to exert the full power of the empire, abandoning part of the troops and cutting off the tail to survive was the most correct choice.
Ballack still felt very sorry. He had originally placed his hopes on these young people, relying on their drive and unwillingness to admit defeat, and wanted to try to see if they could break through one or two of the three talents.
After all, the blessing of the Imperial Scepter itself has allowed these legions to appreciate the charm of three talents in advance. If they can have one or two more normal three talents, they can use more top legions to deal with the elite of the Han Dynasty.
Unfortunately, it was destroyed by Kapil, and Barak had to leave 5,000 men behind to cover the retreat, and then returned to the valley in disgrace with his army.
The technology of infection by the evil god once again made great contributions. Five thousand soldiers who were not afraid of death caused troubles to the Han Dynasty, but they were only minor troubles. However, these minor troubles successfully blocked their way to expand their victory.
It also made the Han Dynasty put the research of this thing as the top priority. After all, it caused trouble, so it was better to deal with it in advance.
What if it’s 5,000 this time and 50,000 next time?
The Kushans did not fight with all their strength, and they did not fight with all their strength either. Although the two sides fought like a meat grinder, both sides still had room for maneuver.
It can be said that the war went from a war of trial to a decisive battle, and then from the decisive battle to a war of trial.
Although the Han Dynasty won the final victory, the casualty ratio between the two sides was about 1:1.5.
If it weren't for the more than 5,000 people who were left behind at the end, which increased the casualties, the casualty ratio might have been even lower.
The Sharp Warriors suffered the greatest losses, losing nearly 8,000 men, and their organization was completely destroyed.
