C567 Battling (Next)

Wu Gang did not care about the troops of the Nine King Tribe's direct line of cavalry that were destined to be annihilated in one go, instead, he was fully focused on preparing for the attack of Lei Sheng's army.

Based on the current situation, the frontline 'cannon fodder' troops could basically determine death. The rest would depend on the abilities of their Heavy Armor Infantry soldiers.

Thinking about it, Wu Gang didn't hesitate anymore. He brought his personal guards to quickly return to his own troops, and before the Black Armored Soldiers could charge over, he needed to prepare a plan to deal with them.

And just as Wu Gang was preparing the troops, the leading troops of 'cannon fodder' was being chased and slaughtered non-stop. It was as if the black-armoured Knights who were mounted on horses were all demons, coming and going like the wind and waving their blades until it became red.

Seeing this scene, Wu Gang felt better. After all, he had witnessed how invincible these people were on the battlefield before him, but this was the first time the soldiers under Wu Gang's command had seen such a scene.

At first, they were very confident that they could compete with the annihilated armies in the Empire. However, after seeing Surveillance Council's army, their confidence and imposing manner had been beaten to the point that it no longer existed.

Just that extremely cold-blooded slaughter was enough to make the soldiers under Wu Gang feel as if their hearts had been chilled to the bone.

In addition to that, the Black Armored Cavalry's tactical use made them sweat profusely. That simple method of flanking and exterminating looked like an extremely ordinary tactic, but the timing and the precise choice of the route were enough to shock them.

It was unknown whether it was because the Black Armoured Army was too strong or because the Nine King Infantry soldiers were too weak, but it did not feel like a long time until the battle came to an end.

More accurately speaking, the soldiers on their side had already begun to surrender, and the black armored infantry following them did not participate in the battle, as if they were waiting to see the prisoners.

Wu Gang's heart was almost in his throat, he tightly held onto his blade that was covered in perspiration as he stared at the group of Black Armoured Army.

However, what was strange was that these Black Armoured Army were only wary of Wu Gang's army, and did not have any intention of taking action.

This made Wu Gang anxious and confused at the same time.

What was he trying to do? Could it be that he had become the enemy's captive? But he hadn't even fought yet, how could he know that he would lose without a doubt!

But if it was like this, they would neither attack nor disarm, what exactly was their intention? Let alone Wu Gang, even Lei Sheng had no idea what was going on.

Before the battle had begun, Gongsun Ze Tian had already sent out a messenger to pass Lei Sheng down, ordering him to destroy the frontlines of the frontlines of the frontlines of the frontlines. Gongsun Ze Tian, on the other hand, had actually allowed Lei Sheng to only lay siege to the formation of the seemingly more elite infantry, and as long as the opponent did not retaliate, he would not have to make a move against him.

This was the first time he heard that the enemies had to be lenient on the battlefield, but because of his trust in Gongsun Ze Tian, he complied.

After successfully exterminating the frontline, Lei Sheng led the cavalry and infantry, forming a circle around Wu Gang and the rest of the soldiers, neither attacking nor ordering them to retreat.

On the other side, Gongsun Zaitian was calmly watching the charging cavalry army. The ridicule and contempt in his eyes showed that he had no intention of concealing it.

"Sawtooth Formation!" When the enemy's cavalry was less than fifty meters away, Gongsun Zaitian gave the order decisively.

Following this order, the square formation quickly changed. The first few rows of infantry soldiers quickly gathered towards a distance of five meters, forming the same defensive formation that Wu Gang had set up, a layer upon layer of shields. Similarly, the long spears were pointed towards the sky, like venomous snakes that were ready to strike.

As for the following square formation, it had actually become a concave type of square formation. It looked like a battlements, but the soldiers in the first few rows also held shields and spears, putting on the same appearance as the old one.

This kind of transformation puzzled the general named Zhao, but other than looking strange, he couldn't see any effect at all, so he simply treated it as a bluff.

However, when he led the cavalry soldiers and rushed forward, the front of the horse repelling formation suddenly changed, the entire array suddenly became undulating in height, the lower areas were easily traversed by horses, and the higher areas were completely covered by thorny shield walls. Let alone overdoing it, if he was able to jump off a horse and escape, he would be thankful for his fast reaction.

The moment they came into contact with each other, the formation was thrown into disarray.

The part of the cavalrymen who could not pass through the defensive formation, under the pressure from the front and back, were simply like a tragic scene of many carts colliding with each other in a row. 'Putting one's horse on the ground' was not enough to describe what would happen in a situation like this, where people pressed against horses, horses pressured people, layers upon layers of people would come at the same time.

As for those cavalrymen who had just jumped over, there was nothing to rejoice about, because the moment their horses fell to the ground, the riders who fell from their horses in a sorry state understood why.

The original distance of five to six meters between them was actually filled with scattered triangular spikes that were specially made for the opposing cavalry. Unexpectedly, they had already been used here.

With more and more horses coming, the number of people who were missing their hooves were not few. The few of them had survived, but they were no longer able to gain the advantage that a cavalry soldier should have, and could only choose to fight their opponent at close range.

However, they were preparing to charge over with their sabers, but they didn't expect that these 'no-name army' troops would be so elite that not only did the frontline officers not flinch at all, but the warriors behind them even stepped on the backs of their teammates and leaped up bravely, brandishing their butcher knives condescendingly towards those unlucky men who had transformed their infantry into cavalry.

Seeing this scene, not only was the general surnamed Zhao stunned, even the few officers beside him were trembling. How was this a nameless army, this was a power that was not inferior to the Surveillance Council's direct army.

After the bloodbath, the general no longer dared to attack according to his original plan. After exchanging glances with the commanders beside him, they wanted to lead the rest of the cavalry back.

Yet, they had actually come. Could they still leave? Would Gongsun Zaitian let them leave without a hitch?

Just as they were launching their attack, Gongsun Ze Tian had already ordered the cavalry on both sides to surround them, in order to cut off their retreat. Right now, they were hoping to turn around and run away, not to mention whether the light cavalry soldiers could agree to this, but whether the close combat foot soldiers could agree to this.

In front of them were cavalry crossbows and crossbows, and behind them were infantry soldiers who specialized in slashing their horses' legs. Under such a pincer attack, the cavalry troops were quickly annihilated. Of course, none of those surnamed Zhao ran away, and they were either captured or killed.

Gongsun Ze Tian did not plan to care about the matter of cleaning up the battlefield. He handed them all over to his subordinates, while he himself unexpectedly urged his horse to gallop over to Lei Sheng's side.

In the midst of Wu Gang's shock, he saw that Lei Sheng had actually turned around and bowed to this young general, and the one he was calling 'Marshal' was actually him!

This was simply equivalent to a heavy bomb, and caused Wu Gang to fall into a deep state of shock that he could not extricate himself from.

The marshal was not someone anyone could call, much less someone who was fit to be called a marshal, let alone a fellow who did not have a single strand of hair growing on his back.

"Are you curious?"

"..." Wu Gang nodded, he did not know what to say, and did not know what to say!

"Are you puzzled?"

"..." Wu Gang still nodded his head, he did not say a word, he knew that the other party would tell him.

"All of today's preparations were made over ten days ago, and they were all arranged by me!"

"Who the hell are you?"

"Me? The commander of this unit! It is also their marshal! "

"Why did you kill them all and only surround me?! Don't you know that I, Wu Dai, am not willing to help you? "

"I just don't want to cause too many casualties. As for those trash, they are not in my calculations. Even if they were ten times more, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to do any substantial damage to my unit!"

"You're not here to destroy me?"

"To be more accurate, I'm here to take you in. Of course, the prerequisite is that I'm satisfied with your performance!"

"Then how did I perform?"

"It's still not satisfactory, but there are still many things we can learn from it!"

"Does that mean you can bypass me and my subordinates?"

"On the contrary, I can spare your lives, but you will have to be loyal to me and fight for me!"

"For you? Not for the Empire? "

"The Empire has enough of these people. Your only target of loyalty is me!"

"Aren't you their marshal? What's the difference between being loyal to you and the Empire? "

"I don't intend to be their marshal for the rest of my life. I still have other things to do! "Alright, I won't waste my breath on you anymore. Just give me a confirmation, promise to serve me, or don't you agree to it?"

"Is it good for me to promise you?"

"There are no benefits, what a mess! "However, life will be very exciting and fulfilling!"

"Then what if I don't agree?"

"Then you will never have to worry about these useless things again. Remember, it's' forever '!" Gongsun Zaitian stressed the point very heavily.

But the moment he finished speaking, the army in front of Wu Gang had all prepared themselves for an attack, and there were even more crossbows and crossbow bolts on the cliff behind Wu Gang. Their targets were all already locked onto Wu Gang and the soldiers under his command.

"This is a blatant threat!"

"As long as I like it. Do you even have the right to refute me?"

"You are despicable!"

"Thank you for your praise!"
