Chapter 255: Breaking the Formation
"You two watch out, especially you, Bo Yue!"
Guo Hao brought the Sun Cavalry to replace Jiang Wei and Hua Mulan from the front line. The Sun Cavalry wanted to defeat Dashun in one go, and they couldn't let friendly forces get in the way.
Guo Hao also knew that he would rarely have the opportunity to lead troops into battle himself, so he decided to teach Jiang Wei how to use his sun talent.
"There really are a lot of them, but unfortunately they are all miscellaneous soldiers and not enough to look at at all. Now let me see how far I can go in commanding a large army." Guo Hao looked at the endless Dashun soldiers in front of him, with a smile on his face.
"Listen, you rebels on the opposite side. I am General Guo Pengju of the imperial court. I will only kill the main culprits, and those who surrender will not be killed!" Guo Hao shouted at the Dashun army.
Li Zicheng and Luo Shan's faces darkened upon hearing this. Luo Shan was even more gloomy. He really didn't understand why such a thing happened. First it was Zhu Jun, then the counselor who could change the world on a large scale, and finally the most powerful minister and general of the Han Dynasty. Did the Dashun dig up the imperial tomb? Was it worth the court to use such a large force to punish them?
When Luo Shan saw that Guo Hao was planning to charge with a single legion, his face turned as black as the bottom of a pot. He said, "I am the commander of a large legion with 200,000 soldiers under my command, and yet you want to rush in and kill me? How conceited you are."
"It is beyond your ability to try to shake a tree like an ant. I, Luo Shan, want to see how you can kill me." Luo Shan couldn't help but roar loudly in the direction of Guo Hao. He couldn't accept Guo Hao's behavior of not treating him as a human being at all.
"Follow me, our formation. We will kill them all in one stick of incense. As the sun is above, our army will win this battle!"
Guo Hao held the Tianlong Breaking City Halberd at an angle, and a dazzling light burst out from his body. Behind him, the three-legged golden crow spread its wings and flew high into the sky. For a moment, two suns were suspended in the sky. As the light spread, the momentum of the Sun Riders continued to rise!
"I am the sun, I am the glory!"
Along with Guo Hao's ultimate declaration, the Sun Knight entered its ultimate form. Momentum is no longer an adjective, but a real and observable reality.
"Follow me!"
Guo Hao took the lead and rode out with a roar. The purple-gold red rabbit horse neighed to the sky and carried Guo Hao to rush towards the central army of Dashun.
The powerful momentum and brilliance were connected to each other, and the entire Solar Legion was like a three-legged golden crow rising from the fire, all bursting out with all their strength to charge towards Dashun.
The fierce momentum swept towards Dashun like a tidal wave. The soldiers of Dashun were frightened in place at the mere sight of them. After all, they were just a group of farmers who took up weapons.
Many soldiers were already frightened before engaging in battle with the Sun Cavalry.
If there wasn't a supervisory team behind them, it is possible that some soldiers had already started to run away.
"Revolt!" Li Zicheng displayed his monarchical talent, forcibly stabilized the morale of the army and created conditions for Luo Shan's corps command.
Luo Shan glanced at Li Zicheng greedily. He really wanted such a talent. For a commander of a large army like him, as long as the soldiers could maintain their will to fight, then he could give all opponents a try.
However, he grasped the situation well. After retracting his greedy eyes, he quickly mobilized the Dashun troops to establish a defense line.
As long as a single troop fails to destroy the soldiers' minds, even a god can surround and kill them.
If one line of defense can't stop them, then use ten lines of defense; if ten lines can't stop them, then use a hundred; as long as he can slow down the Sun Cavalry, he has plenty of ways to wear down the Guards!
Even if the Sun Knight is the previous Shield Guard, so what? It was considered uneconomical before, but as long as you are willing to invest, even the Shield Guard can be killed.
"Open it for me!"
Guo Hao roared and swept his halberd, knocking the enemy in the front away. Then the Sun Riders followed closely and the defense line set up by Luo Shan was torn apart in an instant.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!" Guo Hao was extremely excited. He hadn't been to the battlefield for a long time. His blood was boiling. Infinite strength surged from his body, allowing him to lead the Sun Cavalry to break through eighteen lines of defense. The so-called defense lines were terribly fragile in front of the iron hooves.
The soldiers stationed at the original location were either knocked away by the Sun Riders or stabbed to death by them with their spears. Wherever the Sun Riders went, they were unstoppable.
The glory of the sun grants the sun soldiers absolute offensive and defensive capabilities. The glow that appears on their bodies helps them block all attacks, and the glow that appears on their weapons makes them indestructible.
The defense line arranged by Luoshan was like a fortress on the beach. When huge waves hit, everything disappeared completely.
Luo Shan's face was cold as he reinforced the defense. The performance of the Sun Knights was a bit beyond expectations. It was the first time he saw such a terrifying legion. The rain of arrows and the forest of spears were meaningless to them . The light on their bodies helped them block too many attacks.
While possessing an iron-like defense, they also possessed an indestructible ability. The weapons in the hands of the Dashun soldiers had no way to defend themselves. Even if the gun barrels swept across, both the people and the weapons would be cut in half, as smooth as a sickle cutting wheat. It was called a battle, but in fact it was just a one-sided mowing down of the grass.
"Prepare the legion to attack!" Luo Shan finally gave the order.
"Luoshan, there are so many soldiers ahead..." Li Zicheng was shocked. If he launched a legion attack under such circumstances, wouldn't that mean killing his own people as well?
"Adoptive father...a kind man cannot command an army!" Luo Shan responded to Li Zicheng with a cold look. He had had enough of this guy who was nominally his adoptive father.
Although the legion's attack was greatly weakened under the clouds, it could still produce terrifying effects.
Luo Shan unceremoniously mobilized the soldiers of the rear camp and launched a series of legion attacks. The originally unstoppable charge of the Sun Cavalry was abruptly stopped.
An army of 200,000 might have poor combat quality, but the cloud of energy formed by 200,000 people should not be underestimated.
The huge light blades kept slashing at the Sun Cavalry's charging path. The Sun Cavalry were fine, but the Dashun soldiers on the road were chopped into pieces by the continuous legion attacks.
"What a cruel heart!" Guo Hao narrowed his eyes, with a dangerous light flashing in them.
Originally, he planned to capture him alive and use him for his own purposes, but he didn't expect that he would turn out to be such a dangerous madman with such a personality. This mentality of not treating soldiers as human beings at all has completely deviated from the so-called "a merciful army cannot be commanded", and he is more like a completely inhuman monster.
Only a few Sun Cavalry were killed in the attacks of more than twenty legions of Luoshan, but at least eight thousand Dashun soldiers died in the attacks of these legions. Luoshan did not take the lives of the soldiers seriously at all, and this cruel method indeed curbed the charge momentum of the Sun Cavalry.
Even Luo Shan's injuries were not accidental, he did it on purpose, killing the soldiers and plundering their spirit after death, and then launching the next legion attack.
The Dashun soldiers, whose spirits had been robbed, looked like mummies, and their deaths were extremely tragic.
