Chapter 229: The Situation Shifts Instantly

You should know that in the era of cold weapons, heavy cavalry, akin to tanks, were the overlords of the land.

Even ordinary heavy cavalry, the resource cost to sustain a few thousand soldiers, could support tens of thousands of elite regular troops.

Let alone heavy cavalry Dao Soldiers.

Even if it is the Da Qian dynasty, which ranks among the top two of the Five Great Dynasties.

Under such wealthy circumstances, they only kept one unit of heavy cavalry Dao Soldiers like the Leize Dragon Cavalry.

And looking across the world, it is even rarer.

And before our eyes, the impoverished Yellow Turban Rebels, half of them wield bamboo or wooden weapons.

Some ragtag militia even came forward with just a hoe.

Now you tell me this group of Yellow Turban peasant soldiers suddenly pulled out a heavy cavalry Dao Soldier from their pants?

This situation is like walking down the street and seeing a beggar, who then turns around and asks you.

"Brother, want to buy a nuclear bomb? I have it in stock."

Then on the spot, he brought you to see a real nuclear bomb.

What the heck!

At this moment on the battlefield, under the stunned gaze of Nangong Tianxia and others.

In the Yellow Turban camp emerged a previously unseen Dao Soldier unit—the Iron Floating Pagoda, whose inscribed military texts gleamed with dazzling light, converging into a towering Pagoda Dharma Aspect.

Nangong Tianxia gazed from afar at this suddenly appearing Dao Soldier unit, his heart stirred by tremendous waves.

"Commander-in-Chief, what… what kind of Dao Soldier is this? Or is it a heavy cavalry Dao Soldier!"

The Deputy Commander beside him also saw this, couldn't help but exclaim, his voice trembling from shock.

Nangong Tianxia did not answer the Deputy Commander's words, merely fixed his gaze on the distant Iron Floating Pagoda Dao Soldiers, his eyes flashing with complex light.

He clearly understood what the emergence of this Dao Soldier unit signified.

The Yellow Turban Army had hidden such a powerful trump card, making the battle's outcome already become uncertain.

"This… this is the Pagoda Grand Formation?"

Nangong Tianxia muttered to himself, his voice full of shock and disbelief, "Hasn't this Military Grand Formation already been lost? How could it appear in the Yellow Turban camp?"

Yun Xinrou beside him also saw this, likewise showing an incredulous expression: "Commander, how… how is this possible?"

"Wasn't the Pagoda Grand Formation the Dao Soldier unit possessed by the Great Firmament Dynasty, which was jointly divided among the Five Great Dynasties centuries ago?"

"It was lost after the Five Great Dynasties established their rule centuries ago; has the Yellow Turban Army really found it now?"

Nangong Tianxia took a deep breath, striving to calm his inner shock.

He coldly stared at the distant Yellow Turban camp, his heart filled with doubt and unwillingness.

He originally thought victory was already in his grasp, never expecting the Yellow Turban Army to still hide such a powerful trump card.

The emergence of this Iron Floating Pagoda Dao Soldier unit completely disrupted his plans.

"Hahaha! Nangong old fool!"

"Didn't expect that, did you? Our Yellow Turban Army still has such a trump card."

Kong Jin, who had been tormented by Nangong Tianxia leading the Leize Dragon Cavalry, lifted his head to look at Nangong Tianxia, a hint of mockery on his face.

As one of Meng Zhang's hidden forces, the Three Monsters of Lion Camel Ridge had already arrived when they came.

They had already encountered this Iron Floating Pagoda Dao Soldier unit.

This is why they dare to charge so recklessly.

"I didn't expect you Yellow Turban Rebels to still hide such a powerful Dao Soldier unit."

"But wanting to keep us here, a single Dao Soldier unit is not enough!"

Nangong Tianxia tightly stared at the Dharma Aspect-activated Kong Jin and his two companions, speaking icily.

Having said that, he led the charge toward the Iron Floating Pagoda Dao Soldiers.

The Heaven-Splitting Slaughter God Spear in his hand flashed with dazzling light, like a lightning bolt tearing through the dark sky.

The Leize Dragon Cavalry behind him also followed closely, launching a charge.

Their figures darted across the battlefield like arrows aimed at the enemy's hearts.

The two powerful Dao Soldier units clashed head-on again on the battlefield, erupting in earth-shaking roars.

Nangong Tianxia's Heaven-Splitting Slaughter God Spear, with the force of thunder, slammed heavily into the Iron Floating Pagoda Dao Soldiers, each swing capable of taking a piece of the enemy's life.

The Iron Floating Pagoda Dao Soldiers, unwilling to yield, relied on their powerful Dharma Aspect and Military Grand Formation to engage in fierce combat with the Leize Dragon Cavalry.

"Leize!" Nangong Tianxia raised his Heaven-Splitting Slaughter God Spear high, shouting loudly; his voice rolled across the battlefield like thunder, urging the nearby Leize Dragon Cavalry to fight bravely.

"Dragon Cavalry, forward!"

The many Leize Dragon Cavalry behind him shouted in unison, their voices converging into a mighty force that shook the entire battlefield.

The surrounding Military Grand Formation surged wildly, a divine Leize Dragon God Dharma Aspect slowly emerged, with a human head and dragon body, emitting thunderous roars, deafening and enduring.

Like a giant dragon roiling across the battlefield, bearing endless majesty and power.

The dragon's roar shook the heavens; wherever the Dharma Aspect passed, the soldiers of the Azure Dragon Legion in between collapsed one after another.

As Nangong Tianxia and the Leize Dragon Cavalry were held back by the Iron Floating Pagoda and the Three Monsters of Lion Camel Ridge,

the situation on the battlefield instantly reversed.

The Ox Demon King, previously suppressed by Nangong Tianxia, now like a beast breaking free of its chains, brimming with savage vigor, returned to the battlefield.

He raised his head to a long howl, shaking the nine heavens; the Yellow Turban Strongmen behind him were also invigorated, morale soaring.

At this moment, the Ox Demon King grinning fiercely, brandishing his mixed-iron staff, led the Yellow Turban Strongmen like a tide toward Yun Xinrou and the two, and the Soul-Hooking Army.

The Ox Demon King, already immensely powerful, now like a tiger descending the mountain, unstoppable.

At this moment, only Yun Xinrou, two junior War Gods, and the Soul-Hooking Army remained at the central battlefield; facing the Ox Demon King's frenzied assault, they immediately fell into a bitter struggle.

Originally, the Soul-Hooking Army's formation, already battered by the Military Grand Formation, was torn apart again and again, soldiers falling one after another.

Yun Xinrou's movement technique was light and agile, the bow and arrow in her hand were also extremely nimble; she strove to shuttle across the battlefield, trying to find a breakthrough, but Niu Mo Wang's attack was truly too fierce, making her feel immense pressure.

Quick! Block them!

Yun Xinrou shouted loudly, her voice filled with anxiety and helplessness.

The Hook Soul Army's soldiers, hearing Yun Xinrou's shout, all raised their weapons and fought the enemy with all their might.

However, the strength of the Yellow Turban Warriors was equally not to be underestimated.

Under Niu Mo Wang, the Jiwu 108 Heavenly God General, the Yellow Heaven Dharma Aspect behind him was like the Death God's prayer, mercilessly reaping lives on the battlefield.

Niu Mo Wang laughed loudly as he watched the battle before him, he seemed to have already seen the hope of victory.

Hahaha! Dry dog, everything of yours is within Commander-in-Chief Meng Zhang's expectations!

He roared loudly, the mixed iron staff in his hand swung like a windmill.
