Some died on the spot, while others broke their legs and groaned in pain on the ground.
Liu An wiped the sweat and blood from his face and turned to look in another direction.
Suddenly, a crack appeared in the dark mass of enemy troops.
A troop of heavily armored cavalry, riding armored warhorses, slowly drove out.
They were dressed in black iron armor and wore ferocious masks.

Liu An's voice was low and deep.
