Mythical Three Kingdoms

This is the Elite Double Talent led by Fuward, one being the regular speed enhancement, and the other being shared attributes. As camel riders, they can gain one-fifth of the camel’s various attributes during battles.

In other words, these cavalry are completely unafraid of fighting long battles; they might endure three days and nights without food or drink, wearing you down while still being able to continue fighting.

Of course, as super elite-level cavalry, generally speaking, fighting others for that long doesn’t usually happen. One-fifth of the camel’s attributes include not only endurance but also strength and agility, which can realistically improve combat power.

Soon, both sides could see the army behind the opposing force. Compared to the Kushan camel cavalry, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry on the Han side was noticeably smaller, but this was not a problem.

And as both sides met face-to-face, apart from the legion talent, all boosts for Li Jue’s side were already in place. Let alone that Li Jue’s dictionary didn’t have the word ’failure’; Li Jue didn’t even own a dictionary. On the plains, Li Jue fears no challenge.

As they closed the distance to five hundred steps, both sides’ speed increased once more. Clearly, neither side was inclined to relent against the other. Eliminating the only disadvantage for camel cavalry, they normally crush ordinary cavalry in all attributes, and they are unbeatable in the desert!

[With an aura like a rainbow and a blade-like cutting front, this is definitely not bandits, nor is it the Imperial Guard of any Western Regions country. Even back then, the Parthian Royal Court Guard couldn’t achieve this level, but it doesn’t matter who they are!] Before engaging Fuward, Li Jue and others understood from a glance at the opposing front that they were definitely targeting them.

[The opponent hasn’t gained divine powers, but the military’s aura is grand, and the soldiers are completely fearless, worthy of being the cavalry of the Han Empire.] In the moment of charge, Fuward coldly scanned the Xiliang Iron Cavalry and made his judgment, [But you’re not strong enough yet!]

In an instant, the distance narrowed to three hundred steps. Duan Wei was already leading nearly six hundred military spirit soldiers to stabilize the front, ready to pierce through the opponent in one breath. No matter what kind of cavalry they were, facing them head-on, they would absolutely not fail!

”Single bolt crossbows ready,” Li Jue issued the first command. Since the opponent has such strength and is aiming for them, then let them not return. This camel cavalry looks stronger than the Roman heavy infantry seen at Parthia.

Fuward also gave the same command, though not for arrows but javelins. Compared to a horse’s load, a camel’s load is more reliable, so Fuward’s camel cavalry was prepared with a large amount of assault weapons.

At one hundred steps, both sides could even see the weapons in each other’s hands and the grim yet passionate expressions on their faces, yet remained fearless.

In an instant, at fifty steps, the soldiers of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry almost immediately focused their crossbows on the center of the opposing force, firing over a thousand crossbow bolts. In the next moment, the cavalry soldiers didn’t even look at the outcome but directly hung the single bolt crossbows on the horses’ backs, grasped the long spears with both hands, and began the final thrust!

At the same time, as Fuward’s camel cavalry entered the fifty-step range, everyone suddenly threw out the short spears wrapped with iron spikes in their right hands, then similarly didn’t look at the results but directly switched to long spears of nearly the same length as the Xiliang Iron Cavalry.

During Dong Zhuo’s era, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry only had one pole weapon, no other weapons, but now the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is actually equipped with three types of weapons: long spears for high-speed breakthroughs, horse-cutting blades for clashing, and ring-pommel swords for desperate situations.

The first type doesn’t need much explanation; everyone knows how to use it. Using the second type means the opponent is already very strong. If they use the third type, it means the opponent is also cavalry, and both sides are already entwined, with their strengths reaching a certain limit, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is fighting desperately.

But truth be told, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry has yet to encounter the third situation. The paired great broadsword has never been used, and they’ve rarely used the horse-cutting blade or sword.

Both sides have terrifyingly high qualities, with the crossbow bolts almost completely covering the central position of Fuward’s camel cavalry, designed for tearing open the enemy’s main formation, and similarly, the javelins also covered the front position of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry.

”Hahaha!” Duan Wei laughed heartily as he stepped forward. Who is brainless enough to dare to shoot arrows or javelins at them; it’s simply suicidal.

Nearly six hundred Military Spirit Soldiers took over a thousand javelins head-on without any blocking actions, with their speed, attack, and defense suddenly rising by about seventy percent.

Compared to small weapon arrows, a single javelin is at least equal to ten arrows. The Xiliang Iron Cavalry led by Duan Wei directly entered a super deity state, with their speed, already at its limit, suddenly soaring drastically.

At the same time, a special cloud qi of their respective colors appeared above both sides’ heads: the dark golden cloud qi of Xiliang Iron Cavalry hanging over the front, and the gray-yellow cloud qi of Kushan Desert Camel Cavalry secretly harboring a murderous aura by stirring the yellow sand.

Both sides were high-speed shock cavalry, but in this less than fifty-step situation, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry led by Duan Wei still made it into Fuward’s super elite camel cavalry ten steps earlier than Li Jue and the others. Due to the previous targeting by crossbows, the camel cavalry had revealed a vulnerability at this point, and Duan Wei led the Military Spirit Soldiers to break through directly from this spot!

And at this moment, when both sides were very close to each other, there was no possibility of executing secondary commands; Li Jue roared, and amidst the opponent’s incredulous gaze, he unleashed the Legion Talent.

In any empire, whether it’s called the blessing of the gods, the glory of the empire, or the protection of the empire, the Legion Talent, in essence, is the ultimate power, with prerequisites equivalent to Inner Qi Manifestation Rank strength in the Central Plains.

To harness such power with a mortal body, the more you understand, the more you know, the more fearful you become; as the saying goes, extremes are either boundless strength or unfathomable weakness. Fuward and Zasali were not blind; their opponent clearly had boundless strength!

However, at this moment, they had no time to be shocked why Li Jue possessed such power, as Fuward’s Camel Cavalry had already collided with the Military Spirit Soldiers led by Duan Wei!

After all, they were Super Elite with Dual Talents, capable of resisting the Military Spirit Legion. In groups of three or five, sacrificing a few in perfect coordination, the Kushan Elite instantly seized the opportunity to deliver a fatal thrust, yet in the moment of collision, their eyes were filled with bewilderment.

The thrust felt like it hit a solid iron pillar. The opponent, enduring their Long Spear, accompanied by the rain of arrows and javelins from their comrades, easily slew the enemy before them.

The feeling was like an adult entering a kindergarten, effortlessly crushing the children, enduring the rain of arrows and javelins from the enemy while exterminating them.

In fact, Duan Wei was almost laughing in delight; their coordination was simply impeccable. The cavalry in front wielded Cavalry Spears over a yard long, while their comrades supported with javelins and arrows. This combination of short-range, medium-range, and long-range attacks was enough to crush most legions; even the Xiliang Iron Cavalry would struggle.

Unfortunately, what Duan Wei led was no ordinary Xiliang Iron Cavalry; they had already stepped into another realm, a legion of Military Spirit that twists reality to create reality, where all long-range attacks served as an augmentation for them.

The Military Spirit Soldiers maintained a speed and defense of around two hundred percent, equivalent to universal Qi Refining to Gang, and the inherent strong defense of Xiliang Iron Cavalry allowed them to ignore most attacks on this battlefield.

As Duan Wei led the vanguard to smash into the Kushan Elite army, slicing through their formations as easily as chopping vegetables, Li Jue, Guo Si, and Fan Chou, without hesitation, charged through the breached gap with their trusted aides.

”Wipe out these bandits!” Li Jue unreservedly revealed his identity this time, roaring as he charged into the Fuward Camel Cavalry Legion.

Because upon initial contact, the moment they pierced through the enemy, Li Jue understood from the retaliatory power that the opposing forces were undoubtedly on par with the Super Elite with Dual Talents of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry.

Initially, Li Jue might have thought that this legion was nurtured by some Royal House of the Western Regions, but now he could assure that they were definitely the elite of an empire; beneath the level of an empire, it’s virtually impossible to nurture such monsters!

Faced with these monsters, to avoid falling into a war of attrition, Li Jue remembered only one method Li Ru taught him — to make them understand how truly weak they were.

Immediately, accompanying Li Jue’s roar, the Legion Talent was fully unleashed, each Xiliang Iron Cavalry further enhanced with a defense layer akin to Plate Armor. Though this defense lasted only one quarter hour, Li Jue was confident it was enough to make the enemy despair!

”Take down these bandits!” Guo Si and Fan Chou roared, charging recklessly into the fray just like Li Jue, enduring enemy attacks and eliminating those before them.

The elite soldiers behind them understood from this scene that it was time for desperation; they roared fiercely, launching a fierce assault against the enemy, their momentum as fierce as dragons, relying on battle-hardened will and iron-like defense to relentlessly push forward!

”Kill!” Duan Wei, upon hearing the furious roars behind him and sensing the will of Li Jue and the others, charged forward without hesitation, ignoring all attacks, determined to take down the enemy before they fell!

Why is it that the Elite with Dual Talents such as the Elite of Danyang and White Horse Soldiers did not achieve the same reputation as the Xiliang Iron Cavalry? It’s because, at this level, most other corps seldom risk desperation, while at the time of Xiliang Iron Cavalry’s achievement of this status, they were clad in sheepskin.

Compared to the elegance or mighty valor of other corps, their fighting style consisted of only two words: fierce and wild; they lacked no determination to risk their lives against any corps.

With the roars of the three giants, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry plunged into a state of frenzy, ignoring any attack to prioritize the annihilation of the enemy. With vast combat experience, they clearly understood that sometimes risking everything was the surest way to preserve one’s life.
