On the morning of July 7, 388 in the Daliang calendar, the sun was shining brightly with a gentle breeze. The coalition forces of the Western Regions countries pressed forward with overwhelming force towards the Zhenxi Army lined up in the distance.
As the war drums sounded in the Zhenxi Army, 15,000 Black Armor Cavalry, 15,000 Beiwei Cavalry, 15,000 Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and 15,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry from the front and back guards, the north and south guards, and the east and west guards of the Zhenxi Army first rushed towards the leading cavalry unit of the coalition forces.
The fierce battle entered a white-hot stage from the very beginning. The shouts, screams, neighs of horses and the sounds of weapons colliding from both sides' cavalry even drowned out the cheers of the soldiers behind them.
As time went on, more and more armies from both sides joined the battle, and the entire battlefield could be described as littered with corpses.
Although the Zhenxi Army did not have an advantage in terms of military strength, its combat effectiveness was extremely strong, especially the Zhenxi Army's heavy cavalry, which defeated the cavalry units and infantry formations of many Western Region countries in the coalition forces.
While the Zhenxi Army and the Allied Forces were fighting to the death, Sun Hao, the commander-in-chief of the Zhenxi Army, was not on the battlefield.
Relying on the secret passage handed over by Xie Dongkui, the leader of the Green Flag Hall of the Seven Flags Sect, Sun Hao had already sneaked into the Emerald City with Yang Zaixing, Long Qie, Ying Bu, Fan Kuai, and Peng Yue.
According to the tactics designed by Pang Tong, Sun Hao will use the more than 8 million conversion points stored in the "General Converter" to summon a group of hundreds of generals while the Zhenxi Army and the Allied Forces are engaged in a decisive battle to seize the capital of Wensu Kingdom - Emerald City.
"My lord, this inn has been checked and no one is here, but judging by the situation inside, it seems like it has been ransacked.
"I'm afraid Mr. Pang Tong's suspicions have come true. The Wensu Kingdom may have taken out its anger over the burning granary on the Liang people in Feicui City," Ying Bu reported to Sun Hao in a deep voice.
Sun Hao said in a cold voice: "For all the evil deeds that Wensu State has done to the people of my Liang clan, my Zhenxi Army will definitely repay them a thousandfold."
As he spoke, Sun Hao began to exchange for 100-man generals through the "General Converter". Because he wanted to capture the Emerald City, Sun Hao exchanged for infantry.
The inn where the exit of the secret passage is located is not far from the south gate of Emerald City, and the battlefield where the Allied Forces and the Zhenxi Army are fighting is located outside the south gate of Emerald City.
Under the surprise attack led by Long Ju and five thousand Wei Wuzu, the south gate of Feicui City was quickly captured.
Ying Bu led another 5,000 Wei Wuzu, and Fan Kuai and Peng Yue each led 5,000 Qin elite soldiers, and they attacked the other three gates of the Emerald City respectively.
Sun Hao and Yang Zaixing led 4,000 Modao soldiers who had converted 20,000 points and charged directly towards the palace.
In order to have a decisive battle with the Zhenxi Army, the coalition forces had deployed all their main forces, so the 30,000 Cheshi troops originally stationed in the Emerald City and the 60,000 Wensu troops in the city had all left the city.
Although the commander of the coalition forces, Duke Aisezi, left more than 40,000 Wensu troops in the Emerald City, 90% of them were newly recruited soldiers. This made the Zhenxi Army's plan to take advantage of the chaos to steal the city very smooth.
By the time Duke Aisezi learned that a large number of Liang troops had appeared in the Emerald City and mobilized his troops to return for support, the four gates of the Emerald City had all fallen into the hands of the Zhenxi Army.
Even the control of the four city walls was seized by the Zhenxi Army.
This meant that the coalition forces that came to support had no choice but to resort to a violent attack if they wanted to enter the Emerald City.
But the problem was that the coalition forces had not prepared any siege equipment, not even the simplest ladders. How could they climb the nearly five-meter-high city wall?
When the Black Tiger flag of the Liang State was hoisted on the city wall of Emerald City, the morale of the armies of the Western Regions who were fighting with the Zhenxi Army in the distance could not help but plummet.
In addition, the Zhenxi Army, seeing that they had successfully stolen the city, suddenly launched an increasingly fierce offensive, causing the entire coalition to show signs of collapse.
Duke Esaizi, the commander-in-chief who had not slept all night, said to General Aonu of the Parthian Empire with red eyes: "Although we still don't know how the Zhenxi Army entered the Emerald City, once the Emerald City is lost, our coalition forces will have no way out.
Now if the coalition wants to turn defeat into victory, they can only rely on your Parthian heavy cavalry!"
Duke Aisaizi regarded the 28,000 Parthian heavy cavalry as the coalition's trump card for victory.
If it weren't for the unexpected fall of Emerald City, Duke Aisaizi would have postponed the appearance of the 28,000 Parthian heavy cavalry as much as possible and used the 28,000 Parthian heavy cavalry to launch the final fatal blow to the Liang State Zhenxi Army.
Onu held the iron spear horizontally in his hand and said, "Don't worry, Duke Aisaizi. I will personally lead the Parthian heavy cavalry to first defeat the cavalry of the Liang State Zhenxi Army, and then defeat the Liang State Zhenxi Army's infantry formation."
Duke Aisaizi then turned to the general of Puwan, Dagati, and said, "The remaining 10,000 heavy cavalry of Puwan will also attack together with the Parthian heavy cavalry.
General Dagati, please!"
The Puwan heavy cavalry, which is as famous as the Parthian heavy cavalry, is a little inferior in all aspects, but it can still be ranked second among the heavy cavalry in the Western Regions, and its combat effectiveness is still very strong.
Among the 150,000 troops sent by Puwan to join the coalition this time, there were as many as 40,000 Puwan heavy cavalry.
However, in the previous battle, 30,000 Puyuan heavy cavalry had already been thrown into the brutal battlefield.
Dagati waved the long sword in his hand, nodded to Duke Aisezi, and said nothing. Then he led 10,000 Puwan heavy cavalry and 28,000 Parthian heavy cavalry led by Onu and rushed into the battlefield.
Under the flag of the Zhenxi Army, Pang Tong, who replaced Sun Hao to command the battle, saw that the Parthian heavy cavalry finally came out, and immediately sent up all the 3,000 Huben cavalry, 3,000 Xuanjia cavalry and 2,000 Fengyu Leidian cavalry who had been watching the battle near the flag. This was the last cavalry reserve in Pang Tong's hands.
