The leader of the Xianyou Tribe, Yu Han, led fifty thousand cavalry, intending to utterly annihilate Oliver Sheng’s forces and slaughter them on this grassland.
“Kill!!!”
The Xianyou Tribe’s cavalry shouted as they charged fiercely toward the Great Wei cavalry.
Many Xianyou Tribe cavalrymen drew their bows and shot arrows at Oliver Sheng’s forces during the charge.
Unfortunately, the ordinary arrows could only leave shallow marks on the heavy armor and couldn’t harm the heavily armored cavalry at all.
“Kill…”
When the two sides clashed, the Xianyou cavalry realized that their weapons couldn’t even dent the dark heavy armor of the armored cavalry.
Instead, the barbarian cavalry were continuously cut down by Oliver Sheng’s heavily armored cavalry.
“Die!”
Yu Han swung his blade at Oliver Sheng, thinking that a mere martial cultivator at the Innate Great Perfection stage could be killed with a single strike.
Oliver Sheng’s silver spear, covered in blood and True Qi, glowed red. He swung it at Yu Han without using much True Qi.
“Bang!!”
Yu Han’s blade shattered instantly, and before he could react, he was blasted into a mist of blood by the terrifying force.
To his death, he never imagined that Oliver Sheng, this seemingly insignificant figure, could be so powerful, relying solely on pure strength to turn him into a blood mist.
Many barbarian cavalry leaders nearby were dumbfounded by this scene.
A late-stage Grandmaster leader was blown apart with one spear strike.
What kind of terrifying expert was this young general of Great Wei?!
In the main court of the Xianyou Tribe, Kaden Yu was restless all day, feeling that something bad was about to happen.
Oliver Sheng, after blasting the leader of the Xianyou Tribe into pieces, didn’t stop. He continued to kill the Innate leaders of the barbarian tribes one by one.
With the death of the Innate experts who could harm the heavily armored cavalry, the cavalry charged through the fifty thousand barbarian cavalry like an unstoppable force.
With just two thousand heavily armored cavalry, they pierced through the formation of fifty thousand barbarian cavalry, killing countless enemies.
Felix Wu led two groups of light cavalry to cooperate with the heavily armored cavalry, continuously dividing and slaughtering the barbarian cavalry.
“Kill all the foreign invaders!”
The soldiers shouted. With the barbarian tribe’s leader and Innate leaders killed by Oliver Sheng, they completely lost their organizational and command capabilities.
The remaining barbarian cavalry were leaderless, divided, and their morale plummeted to the freezing point.
“Damn it, it’s the heavy cavalry of Great Wei. We can’t break their defense.”
“Even the warhorses are armored. We can’t defeat them.”
“It’s bad, the leader is dead.”
“The generals are dead too.”
“There’s an invincible expert in the Great Wei army.”
“It’s over, we’re all finished.”
The barbarian cavalry were in chaos, many turning pale.
“What should we do?”
“Run!!”
The panicked barbarian cavalry, some scared out of their wits, chose to flee immediately, while others, with death in their hearts, charged at the Great Wei cavalry.
“Turn around, keep charging with me,” Oliver Sheng shouted.
He was like the soul of the army. Wherever he charged, the soldiers followed.
“Kill…”
Chi Tiansheng carried the military flag, and Wang Zhan carried the command flag, following Oliver Sheng in the charge.
The heavily armored cavalry tightly followed the military and command flags, turning around and charging again, killing barbarian cavalry left and right, blood flowing like rivers.
Felix Wu also commanded his troops to encircle and kill the scattered and fleeing barbarian cavalry.
With just two charges, they completely defeated the fifty thousand barbarian cavalry.
The ground was littered with severed limbs and bones, injured warhorses lying on the ground, wailing.
“Kill, don’t let those cavalry escape,” Felix Wu led the light cavalry, quickly pursuing and killing the fleeing barbarian cavalry.
This battle was exhilarating for him, the first time he had slaughtered barbarian cavalry so fiercely, venting all the pent-up frustration in his heart.
The setting sun cast a blood-red glow on the grassland, dyeing it crimson.
The pursuit and encirclement of the fleeing barbarian cavalry were left to Felix Wu.
Oliver Sheng led the heavily armored cavalry in two charges, and the warhorses were now overburdened and exhausted, unable to continue charging and pursuing.
These warhorses would now be reduced to draft horses.
Two thousand warhorses needed to be replaced, but fortunately, the battle was a crushing victory, leaving over twenty thousand warhorses on the battlefield.
This was a huge gain.
Seeing the defeat of the fifty thousand barbarian cavalry, the subordinates were elated, having defeated an enemy five times their number.
“Victory!”
“Victory!”
“General mighty, River West Army mighty!”
“General mighty, River West Army mighty!”
The soldiers shouted with enthusiasm. This battle would be recorded in history.
After a hundred years, they were the first Great Wei army to penetrate the River West grasslands, an unparalleled honor.
“Haha, exhilarating,” Chi Tiansheng laughed.
Riding and fighting, cutting down enemies on horseback, filled him with heroic spirit and excitement.
“Thrilling, fighting on the battlefield is a man’s passion,” Wang Zhan also said loudly.
Previously, he roamed the martial world, seeking vengeance and justice. Now, fighting on the battlefield gave him an unprecedented experience.
“Give the order to treat the wounded and have the auxiliary troops gather the warhorses and armor,” Oliver Sheng said to a personal guard.
“Yes, General.”
Oliver Sheng sat on his white horse, looking at the battlefield where they had just charged. There lay the bones of over thirty thousand barbarian cavalry.
The breeze carried the scent of blood.
Fortunately, these two thousand heavily armored cavalry were battle-hardened and showed little reaction to the brutal battlefield.
But the auxiliary troops, seeing the carnage, immediately vomited.
Many barbarian cavalry corpses were trampled into a bloody pulp.
“Ugh…”
“Ugh…”
Many auxiliary troops, unaccustomed to such brutality, nearly vomited their guts out.
But they still had to gather the warhorses and strip the armor from the barbarian soldiers.
Oliver Sheng and the other leaders silently watched. These auxiliary troops would eventually become regular soldiers, facing such battlefields in the future.
As the sun set, Felix Wu returned with the cavalry after pursuing the fleeing barbarian soldiers.
“General, I failed in my duty, allowing several thousand barbarian soldiers to escape,” Felix Wu immediately apologized.
“It’s not your fault. We have already achieved a great victory,” Oliver Sheng said with a smile.
With seven thousand against fifty thousand, leaving the enemy’s corpses strewn across the field, blood flowing like rivers, and suffering less than a thousand casualties, it was a great victory.
After this battle, the Xianyou Tribe of the Barbarians wouldn’t be able to organize a large army to invade the border for a year or two.
After cleaning up the battlefield, Oliver Sheng led the army away, leaving the bodies for the barbarians to deal with. They had no intention of burying the enemy.
If the barbarians didn’t care, the wolves roaming the grasslands would benefit.
With an unprecedented victory, the soldiers were all smiles. Killing enemies not only earned them military merit but also rewards when they returned.
“Haha, I killed six enemies this time, earning six points of military merit, enough to exchange for six second-tier cultivation pills.”
“I only killed four enemies.”
“I killed even fewer, just three.”
“I killed eleven enemies, earning eleven points of military merit…”
Oliver Sheng had established a system of military merit in the army, which could be exchanged for pills and other items.
With military merit, they could obtain more pills and quickly improve their cultivation, leaving others behind.
This was also a motivational mechanism to prevent complacency in the army.
At night, Oliver Sheng’s forces camped by a river.
The campfires lit up the silent night, and loud songs filled the air as the soldiers ate meat and drank soup.
They had seized countless cattle and sheep in the past two days, enough to satisfy these big eaters.
“Delicious, roasted whole lamb is the best,” Chi Tiansheng had already devoured two whole lambs.
“Eat slower, no one is competing with you,” Wang Zhan said.
“I’m envious of him. If only I could eat like that,” Zane Wang said enviously.
With innate strength, as long as he could eat, he could cultivate and improve his strength, making others envious.
“When we return, you can get a fourth-tier breakthrough pill to advance to the Postnatal Realm,” Oliver Sheng said to Zane Wang.
“Hehe, I’ve been wanting a fourth-tier breakthrough pill for a long time. If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have asked you for one,” Zane Wang said with a smile.
He had already reached the Great Perfection stage of the Martial Master realm, with a solid foundation, and could now consider breaking through to the Postnatal Realm.
Oliver Sheng smiled and nodded, looking at his subordinates’ joyful faces, feeling equally happy.
Not only had they achieved a great victory, defeating fifty thousand barbarian cavalry, but they were also pleased with the kill points they had earned.
