Chapter 1129 – You Come out to Play, You Have to Pay Sooner or Later

The group that sneak attacked Melbourne’s army consisted of the Tiger Leopard Cavalry and the dragon blood cavalry.

After these two legions disembarked outside of Sydney, they went through the wilderness, going around Canberra like the wind. Finally, they gave the Melbourne army a fatal blow before they arrived in the imperial city.

The strategy that the Great Xia elite cavalry employed was the traditional long-distance charging attack, which was nothing special.

However, such a tactic worked so well.

For the Guards Legion Corps to succeed at the tactic was obviously not a result of luck. First, they were well trained and had it ingrained into their DNA by Marshal Huo Qubing.

How to step, how to cover, how to travel, and even how to find water sources; they all knew the effective methods. As a result, there was the legend that the Guards Legion Corps was like ghosts.

Secondly, due to Great Xia’s strong territory specialty, they possessed stamina and speed that exceeded logic. Obviously, they were the most elite cavalry on the global scale and became Great Xia’s ability to sweep the world.

These two elements added together formed the legend of the Guards Legion Corps.

Returning to the battlefield.

Facing the combined sneak attack of the Tiger Leopard Cavalry and the dragon blood cavalry, the Melbourne army was totally defenseless and had no way to return fire. After the success of the sneak attack, the Guards Legion Corps had a set of tactics for swiftly expanding the war results.

First, the Guards Legion Corps used the flexibility of the cavalry to swiftly wipe out the outside barrier, and then it was time for the heavy armored cavalry. With an invincible aura, they killed their way into the core of the enemy and destroyed the enemy’s formation.

The rumbling heavy armored cavalry were like rows and rows of bulldozers on full power. The enemies screamed and hollered as they raised their shields, but they could not stop them for a single moment. As such, they were trampled across.

After the heavy armored cavalry was the even larger scaled light armored cavalry force.

They were like Asuras, closing in from the two wings like shepherd chasing sheep as they guided the enemy that were already in chaos. They used the bows and crossbows in their hands to claim the lives of the enemy.

The light and heavy armored cavalry all worked perfectly with one another, forming up a death net.

Before the enemy could even fight head on against the light armored cavalry, they had already suffered heavy casualties, and their morale plummeted. Facing such an enemy, the Melbourne army was not only helpless but also started to lose hope.

Just as their morale was low, and they were ready to flee, the killing move of the Great Xia cavalry was revealed.

The Great Xia light armored cavalry that was gathered tougher swiftly spread out with regiments as a unit to charge into the enemy formation. The spears and Tang Blades in their hands continuously took the lives of the enemy.

What made one feel even greater despair was that despite spreading out, the cavalry regiments still coordinated with one another.

They either surrounded or assisted their fellow troops, chasing or going head on, working with one another to cut the enemy army into small pieces and swallowing them one by one.

Facing such a tactic, those who were cowardly could only surrender.

On the outer portion of the battlefield, Melbourne Lord Avera fled toward Canberra under the protection of his Personal Guards. Only by returning there could he have a chance to live.

It was not easy to break away from the battlefield. Just as he was about to heave a sigh of relief.

At this very moment, the Personal Guard beside him exclaimed, “My Lord, be careful!” Only to see a sharp arrow break through the air, piercing through his chest before he could react.

‘Argh!’

Avera vomited blood in his mouth. He could not hold onto the reigns anymore, so he fell off the horse.

Before the Personal Guards could dismount from their horses to save him, he had already transformed into a white light and disappeared from the battlefield. He had ended his game journey in such a surprising manner, having fallen so suddenly.

Who knows whether he had any regret in his heart or not when he turned into a white light.

If Avera did not listen to Jack and announce an iron restriction order on Great Xia, Ouyang Shuo might not have taken down Australia, and Avera would have lived a really carefree life.

He would not have died on the way to the battle like just now.

Unfortunately, there were no ifs in this world, and there was a well said phrase, ‘If you come out to play, you will have to pay sooner or later.’

Amongst the chaotic army, the one who accurately shot Avera was the Legion General of the dragon blood cavalry, the war god Lu Bu. Seeing the target turn into a white light, Lu Bu patted his horse and led his men forward.

Along with the surprising death of Avera, the Melbourne army lost their last bit of fighting spirit.

Even the Java army, who was ordered to come over to help, did not make any unnecessary struggles under such a situation. The survivors chose to surrender, which announced the end of this battle.

Close to noon, the battle was close to its end.

Apart from 10 thousand soldiers who were able to fortunately escape, 60 thousand of them died and 130 thousand of them were captured. It was a complete victory for Great Xia.

After the battle ended, the Guards Legion Corps did not rush to siege Melbourne. Instead, they dealt with the war prisoners and slowly moved toward Canberra. Probably at this moment, Canberra had already received news of the frontline’s defeat.

Not attacking Melbourne was to test the courage of Java’s Lord Uwais.

Java had already lost 100 thousand elites. If Uwais dared to send more reinforcements and teleport to Melbourne, Great Xia did not mind using Australia as the main battlefield to cross swords with Java.

The three of them were one body.

Great Xia held the initiative in this battle. The core goal was not to destroy a particular country but to crush their strength. Anyone who dared to show their head would be hit.

As long as they destroyed the territory armies, taking them down in the future would be an easy matter. … Canberra.

In a short day, the Australian region players had experienced a drop from heaven to hell.

Just yesterday, the country war outlook seemed really bright, and everyone was motivated and dedicated to chasing the invaders out and protecting their home. This was not a baseless dream, as they had a strong army to rely on.

But today, the Melbourne army was ambushed, and as the news of the entire army being crushed spread over, it caused the noisy and bustling Canberra to become silent right away.

A deathly silence.

The subsequent intel pushed the Australian players to the brink of desperation.

Let us not mention the 200 thousand reinforcements they thought were coming. The Great Xia Army attacking Australia suddenly had two more legions. One side increasing and one side decreasing, wasn’t that the difference between heaven and hell?

They asked themselves, with the 200 thousand guards, could they defend against the Great Xia Guards Legion Corps?

No one had that ability.

The feeling of despair spread across the wilderness like a wild grass.

Maybe for Australia, their only hope was a second batch of reinforcements from Java. However, along with the Melbourne army falling, Java also fell into an unbearable silence.

When one was desperate, one would often do crazy things.

The players of Australia were crazy. Facing a war that they had no chances of winning, they were prepared to take a gamble.
