Chapter 63: Hundred-Step Spear

eeling below. In that crowd, Zhang Liyang also saw Lu Tongxuan dressed in mourning clothes."If I shot everyone here, wouldn't the Dàqián Dynasty collapse"Looking at the civil and military officials b...Boom!

The sound of a buzz echoed across the wasteland, and a massive dark cloud rose from the ground, traveling for a short distance before falling back to earth!

"Ah~"

"Ssss~"

The javelin pierced through the leather jerkin, penetrating flesh and bone as it brought the mounted warrior crashing to the ground. Even the larger, unprotected warhorse bore a deep gash from the same deadly arrow.

Even after training, under immense pain, the warhorses still became incredibly agitated. Their raised hooves came crashing down, completely disregarding the possibility that their rider, their master, might be beneath them.

Under a hail of arrows, the Ci Lai cavalry was thrown into disarray, some horses rearing and riders falling. Yet, at forty paces distance, which felt almost like a single stride, the Ci Lai cavalrymen lifted their longbows in turn, aiming them at the forces of the Great Qin Dynasty!

"Shoot!"

"Shoot!"

Both sides issued their orders almost simultaneously. The Liaray cavalry unleashed their first volley of arrows, while the Dagan forces responded with a second volley!

The arrows collided in mid-air, falling to the ground before they could reach their target. Only a few managed to land within the enemy ranks, causing almost no damage.

"Alternating attacks, charge!!"

Takar, at the forefront of the charge, brandished his sword and issued orders!

The biggest advantage of cavalry is in the charge. As long as they pick up speed, the impact of man and horse combined is something few can withstand.

"Set it on fire!"

To this, Yuan Li was also well-prepared!

As the rocket plunged into the prepared ditch ahead, the dry grass and trees instantly burst into flames, like a fire-line separating Yuan Li's side from the Lai cavalry.

On the barren plain, there weren't many withered plants, but it wouldn't be a problem to gather them up and temporarily form a wall of fire. Especially since the weather here was dry, those things would catch fire easily and burn fiercely.

Hiss~

The raging flames once again sent the warhorses into a frenzy. Even as the spearmen lashed out at their flanks, the animals' instinctive fear of fire overpowered them, leaving them to whinny in pain and spin helplessly in place.

Damn it!

Looking down at the warhorses spinning beneath him, Takory was furious, but there was nothing he could do about it.

"Aim forward, fire!"

The Ci Lai were in disarray, while Yuan Li seized the opportunity to counterattack. Arrows flew through the flames and rained down on the Ci Lai cavalry, once again showcasing the might of the Great Qin Dynasty's weaponry!

"Retreat three hundred paces, I want to see how long this wall of fire can burn!"

Taccol's orders were sound. The fire wall could not hold for long, perhaps not even half an hour. By then, Taccol could launch another assault and swallow this force whole.

Inside the firewall, Yuanli remained calm and collected. He knew better than Takory how long this firewall could hold, but Yuanli was not worried. What he needed was precisely this short period of time.

"Sir, I leave it all to you!"

As Yuan Li's inner monologue continued, a warning sound echoed from the Xirui cavalry outside the firewall, followed by Yuan Li once again feeling the ground tremble.

A touch of joy appeared on Yuan Li's face. He knew this tremor wasn't the charge of the cavalry from Zhailai, but rather the charge of his own side!

That is indeed true!

Amidst the warning shouts of the Crouching Tiger cavalry, a surging tide appeared on the distant horizon. Upon its billowing banners, a massive character for "Gan" fluttered in the wind.

"Sir, we have discovered the Great Qin cavalry!"

How many people are on the other side

"Visually estimated to be around 300!"

"Three hundred cavalry dare to launch a surprise attack" Takori's face twitched, not sure if he was angry or amused. "Brothers, charge! Show them what real cavalry is!"

Before the charge, Takarly turned his head to look at the squad inside the inferno wall, a sneer flashing in his eyes.

He had already seen through the other's scheme; they were simply delaying time, waiting for their ambushed cavalry to launch a surprise attack and overwhelm him.

If the enemy had fewer people, this tactic might have worked. However, with three hundred cavalrymen attacking, this is the biggest flaw in the plan!

I will first crush your cavalry and then crush you!

Taco glanced back at the large force of dried troops within the fire wall, then led his cavalry in a sudden turn, charging straight towards those three hundred horsemen!

Boom boom boom~

Nearly a thousand cavalry thundered across the plain, their movements like rolling thunder spreading across the desolate expanse.

On the Daqian side, Zhang Liyang led the cavalry charge at the front. Though his gaze was resolute, he couldn't help but grumble inwardly.

The wasteland was too flat; even finding a hilly area, you'd have to run twenty miles out just to set an ambush. What a pain!

But even more infuriating, Zhang Liyang has to do this!

When Zhang Liyang saw the enemy cavalry charging at them, he drew a long spear from the side of his warhorse!

This is a world of cultivation, although personal martial prowess cannot absolutely rule the battlefield, it can still forcibly erase most disadvantages!

Just like now!

creak creak~

With his right hand tightly gripping a long spear, Zhang Liyang took a deep breath. His legs clamped down hard on the surging warhorse, but his upper body was leaning backward.

Like a bow being slowly drawn, Zhang Linyang's internal qi and blood began to surge.

"Go!"

Bang!

With a deafening roar, the long spear in his hand vanished with a blast as it transformed into a phantom in mid-air. The next instant, it reappeared before a charging lance rider!

Grimacing.

Without the slightest pause, under the immense force, the spear transformed almost into a cannon, piercing straight through the cavalryman's chest, along with the warhorse beneath him!

The sudden collapse of the cavalry in front caused the oncoming riders behind to be completely caught off guard. They, along with their horses, were tripped and fell to the ground, followed by a chain reaction.

Bang~.

Another explosion echoed through the air. The leading lance rider didn't have a chance to react and was pierced straight through!

"The other side has experts!"

Looking at the spear that stretched for five hundred steps, Takarly's pupils contracted sharply!

Such immense and terrifying force is something even the seventh-realm cultivator Tako could not achieve, nor could Tamu!

"Hmph, so what if you're a master Hundreds of cavalry charging will still crush you!"

This was Taki's idea, but reality made Taki's thoughts waver in an instant.

One after another, long spears slashed through the air. Within a few short moments, more than ten long spears had plunged into the ranks of the C'rai cavalry, piercing and killing over a dozen of them. At the same time, the charge of the C'rai cavalry was thrown into disarray!

And by this time, the cavalry of Great Qin had also charged to the front!

"Kill!"

With his long blade whirling, Zhang Liyang charged ahead, the first to clash with the enemy cavalry!

Grimace

Under the high speed, a rider from Ci Lai was brutally torn apart by Zhang Liyang. As sharp as a blade, he now tore a deep gash in the Ci Lai cavalry!hed over Mu Yinghua. She walked into her own tent and soon a soft snore could be heard.Only after hearing the snores did Yue Changping walk over to Zhang Liyang's side and sit down. "Your Highness car...
