The grasslands of Dos are cold and windy, with the cold wind blowing incessantly, bending the reeds along the Holy Mother River.

Even while wearing the white wool winter clothes bestowed upon him by Lin Mo, Bai Qi could still feel the icy sharp teeth of the cold wind.

In the distance, the snow in the holy city of Dos had not completely melted, and from afar, it looked so lonely and cold.

The dikes and fortified camps surrounding the city stand outside the city walls, appearing so out of place in the holy city of the Dos people.

Several catapults towered above the camp. Many Dos prisoners stood below, ropes around their necks.

According to Bai Qi's orders, the soldiers of the Great Xia would hang several prisoners every so often and then throw their heads into the Holy City.

Attacking the city is inferior to attacking the mind; attacking the spirit is superior. By doing so, the morale of the Dos people can be completely destroyed.

However, next to the catapults, tents and campfires spread out in an orderly fashion.

Bai Qi and the Tang Dynasty's Xuanjia heavy cavalry set up their tents upstream of the latrine, while downstream were the Hu-style archer cavalry and ordinary cavalry.

Inside the holy city, the people of Dos, who had been without water for two days, began to grow impatient.

The Doss guards who had been patrolling earlier had disappeared, apparently having gone to fight for the water source.

Upon seeing this, Bai Qi immediately ordered, "Let's go hunting!"

Meanwhile, in the holy city of Doth, the remaining Doth people were holding an emergency meeting.

"They've cut off our water supply; we must fight to the death!"

"Yes, the Great Xia soldiers who came this time number only a few thousand cavalry. We have absolutely no need to be afraid of them!"

Several Dos warriors echoed in agreement.

"Their general is Bai Qi!" said a soldier who had managed to escape from Tianyue Mountain.

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.

The name Bai Qi sent shivers down the spines of the people of Dos.

"Damn it, what Bai Qi? Does he have three heads and six arms or something?!" roared a Dos man who stayed behind in the tribe. "There are still more than 30,000 warriors in the Holy City. Go out and fight him to the death!"

But the Dos warriors who had witnessed Bai Qi's prowess chose to remain silent.

The high priest of Dos, standing to the side, looked distressed and filled with fear.

Before she could say anything more, a Doth warrior waved his hand and gave the order: "Pass on my command, everyone follow me out to meet the enemy head-on."

Before he could finish speaking, a guard shouted, "It's bad! The enemy is attacking!"

As soon as the horn sounded, Bai Qi led several thousand cavalrymen to attack.

At this point, the Dossians had no choice but to hastily prepare for battle.

Bai Qi led several thousand Hu-style cavalry archers in a charge, maintaining distance as before and using arrows to wear down the Dos people.

On the other hand, Dos, being natural-born cavalrymen from the grasslands, reacted relatively quickly.

However, those who have fled to the Holy City are mostly the old, weak, sick, and disabled; the main force and elite troops have all died at Tianyue Mountain.

The old and frail Doth warriors lost their aim with their bows and arrows, and their grip on their scimitars became less steady.

Not to mention that Bai Qi's God of War aura also provides a 40% bonus to all attributes.

The two sides drew closer and closer until they were within firing range.

"Release the arrows!" Bai Qi shouted.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Arrows continued to fly, mercilessly reaping the lives of one Doss after another.

Faced with countless arrows, Dos's remaining troops were completely unable to stop them. At this moment, everyone had only one thought in their minds: retreat! If they were even a fraction of a second too late, they would be dead under the arrows!

Suddenly someone shouted, "Retreat! Retreat now!"

Doss's soldiers scattered like a flock of terrified sheep, abandoning their armor and weapons, and losing all will to fight.

Those Doth who were slower to escape were pierced by arrows, the wounds that pierced their armor and embedded themselves in their bodies still throbbed with pain, and they could not help but groan in agony from their throats.

Blood dripped continuously from the armor soaked in blood, leaving a trail of bloody stains behind it.

To the Dos people's utter surprise, the Xia cavalry behind them suddenly stopped.

"Them? They've left!" the Dossman thought in surprise.

An elderly Doth warrior looked closely and saw that the archers opposite had retreated to the sides, creating a wide area in the middle, as if they were making way for someone.

Soon after, a general wielding a halberd and riding a tall horse, looking majestic, stepped forward.

He came to the front of the formation and shouted.

The soldier, who was fluent in both Dos and Bactrian, translated the following sentence.

"Dos people, surrender and you will not be killed!"

Upon hearing this, the Dosman's eyes widened in astonishment.

"Surrender, in this holy city?"

"No, that's impossible!"

"This is our holy city! Even if we die, we cannot surrender here!"

"Fight them!" roared an old Dos warrior, instantly igniting the most primal fighting spirit in the remaining Dos.

So the Dos people quickly rallied together and charged madly toward Bai Qi's troops.

Just then, Bai Qi waved his hand, and a majestic cavalry charged out from behind him!

They were all dressed in gleaming black steel armor and bright wool coats.

"Heavy cavalry!" a Dos warrior exclaimed. "This is the Great Xia people's demonic force, the Xuanjia Heavy Cavalry!"

"Yes, it's them. They say their weapons are deadly if they touch the skin!"

"They are demons, demons from the underworld!"

Upon hearing these words, all the Dos people began to breathe slightly heavier.

Before long, the heavily armored cavalry of the Tang Dynasty arrived in front of them.

"Kill! Rush them down!" roared the Great Xia cavalry.

The Tang Dynasty's Xuanjia cavalry, riding heavily armored warhorses and gripping their spears, charged into the Dos people's formation with unparalleled momentum.
