Lü Bu led these 8,000 heavily armored cavalrymen, and they subsequently collided with the two most powerful heavy cavalry units of the coalition forces...
Sun Haohe and Yang Zaixing led 4,000 Modao soldiers to attack the palace. Although they encountered resistance from the palace guards, the total number of guards in the entire palace was only over 1,000, and their combat effectiveness was far inferior to that of the Modao soldiers.
Without much effort, the royal palace, which symbolized the power center of Wensu Kingdom, fell into Sun Hao's hands, and the king of Wensu Kingdom, Kemale, was also captured alive.
The remaining Wensu army in the city, as well as some Wensu ministers and nobles, discovered that the palace had fallen, and began to try to retake the palace and rescue their king.
Unfortunately, under the strict defense of thousands of Modao soldiers led by Yang Zaixing, the Wensu army that counterattacked the palace was immediately hit and bleeding.
After entering the palace, Sun Hao immediately found the royal treasury inside the palace.
Then Sun Hao absorbed the gold and silver coins, various gold and silver utensils, and gold and silver bricks from the royal treasury, while using the "Hero Converter" to exchange them for hundred-man generals of various arms.
This also quickly increased the manpower of the Zhenxi Army in the Emerald City. Sun Hao even exchanged for 10,000 Tiger Cavalry with a combat power value of 85 points, and let Yang Zaixing lead them to charge into the battlefield outside the city through the south gate of the Emerald City.
The appearance of 10,000 Tiger Cavalry was almost the last straw that broke the camel's back for the coalition forces.
Starting from the right wing where 10,000 Tiger and Leopard Cavalry charged, the armies of various countries in the Western Regions were defeated one after another, eventually leading to a major defeat of the entire coalition forces.
The various units of the Zhenxi Army continued to chase the defeated coalition forces until dusk, when they stopped their pursuit. Thus, the largest coalition force in the history of the Western Regions was defeated by the Zhenxi Army.
Later statistics showed that in this war, the Allied forces suffered more than 620,000 casualties, and 450,000 were captured. In the end, only about 130,000 people escaped, most of whom were cavalry units from various countries.
Although the Zhenxi Army won a complete victory, it also lost more than 35,000 people, and most of them were generals from the "annual contract system".
Thanks to Sun Hao obtaining the wealth accumulated by the royal family of Wensu State for hundreds of years in the palace of Emerald City, the total strength of the Zhenxi Army actually increased instead of decreased after a bloody battle.
The result of the great battle outside the Emerald City shocked the entire Western Regions. Some armies of Western Region countries that were originally rushing to the Emerald City immediately turned around and prepared to withdraw directly to their own countries.
Since the 1.2 million-strong coalition army led by the four major powers has been defeated, there is no need for the armies of various countries that were preparing to join the coalition to go to the Emerald City.
The leader of the coalition forces, Duke Aissazi, was very lucky to escape the pursuit of the Zhenxi Army. However, when Duke Aissazi counted the soldiers who had followed him to break out, he found that there were only less than 400 cavalrymen left.
Dagati, the general of the Puwan Kingdom who escaped with Duke Aisaiz, said with a gloomy face: "Of the 150,000 troops, only less than 3,000 are left. I really don't know how I will explain this to His Majesty the King after I return home.
Duke Aisaizi, what are your plans next?"
Duke Aisaizi said bitterly, "I don't know either. Although we still have more than a hundred cities in Wensu, the total number of troops we can mobilize may only be a little over a hundred thousand.
Without the support of other countries in the Western Regions, we would not be able to resist the attack of Liang State's Western Guard Army."
Dagati sighed and said, "The disastrous defeat in Emerald City has probably made many countries unable to support your Wensu Kingdom anymore.
Anyway, our Puwan Kingdom really can’t mobilize many troops.”
Duke Aisaizi hesitated for a moment and said, "General Dagati, our two countries share a border. Once the entire territory of Wensu falls, the Liang Zhenxi Army will likely target your Puwan Kingdom as their next target of aggression."
"Duke Aisaiz, to be honest, our Puwan Kingdom only has 400,000 standing troops, but I have personally killed nearly 240,000 of them twice.
So even if our Puwan Nation still wants to support your Wensu Nation, we are already powerless."
After a pause, Dagati continued, "Duke Aisezi, the remaining one hundred or so cities of your Wensu Kingdom are difficult to defend anyway. I suggest that you try to bring the remaining Wensu troops to the territory of our Puwan Kingdom.
Wait for the opportunity and counterattack later."
