”Bastard!”
The assembled Tibetan and Turkic generals watching from the hill paled, the fires of rage glowing in their eyes. When Wang Chong unleashed his second halo, all of them felt like they had been duped, been playthings in the palm of Wang Chong's hand.
”Dalun Ruozan, I suddenly understand why you want to kill him!”
Standing beneath the fluttering golden wolf banner, Duwu Sili had a sinister gaze, his entire body seething with a killing intent that soared to the skies, causing even the air around him to twist and contort. Even though these had just been two long-distance exchanges, with no true clash having taken place, the Celestial Wolf Great General was now dead set on killing Wang Chong.
”If this sort of person remains alive, they will be a source of endless disasters for both Ü-Tsang and the Turks!”
Only extraordinary people could earn the regard of Duwu Sili. With his incredible insight, he had identified Agudu Lan as a potential Brigadier General and personally raised him to that level. Likewise, Wang Chong had not even reached the Brigadier General level yet, but Duwu Sili had already branded his image in his mind.
”Shamask, take command of the Celestial Wolf Cavalry. Prepare to move out and kill the Tang!” Duwu Sili suddenly ordered.
For a few moments, it was quiet, and then a hoarse and chilly voice came from behind him.
”Yes, Milord.”
Dalun Ruozan and Huoshu Huicang immediately turned their heads, only then realizing that a Turkic general wearing the silver armor of the Celestial Wolf Cavalry had appeared behind Duwu Sili. He was slender, and his body exuded no energy whatsoever, making him practically unnoticeable amidst the Celestial Wolf Cavalry.
If Duwu Sili had not said anything, no one would have ever noticed him.
Brigadier General!
A look of slight apprehension appeared in the eyes of Dalun Ruozan and Huoshu Huicang as this thought flashed through their minds. To hide one's energy in front of a group of Great Generals was no easy task. Just this alone was proof enough of this person's impressive capabilities.
Not only that, Shamask had an extremely sinister aura. One could tell at a glance that he was extremely dangerous and hard to deal with.
”All soldiers, listen up! Milord has given his order! Prepare to set out!”
Shamask ignored these gazes, mounting a Turkic steed equipped in that barbed armor of the Celestial Wolf Cavalry. His eyes exploded with an intense light, and the moment he mounted the horse, the entire world seemed to overturn. His inconspicuous and ever-changing energy instantly became as powerful and violent as a storm.
Neeeigh!
The thousands of Celestial Wolf Cavalry began to tremble and cry out from atop the hills. These elite warhorses had been trained and raised through a special method. They no longer seemed like warhorses, but like real wolves.
”Get ready!”
At almost the same time, Dalun Ruozan turned to Huoshu Huicang.
”Tell Huoba Sangye to go as well!”
”There's no need! I'm already ready!”
Dalun Ruozan had barely spoken when a burly man wearing black-red armor slowly trotted over on his horse. His eyes were like bronze bells, his skin slightly tanned, and two red ribbons embroidered with gold fluttered from his shoulders.
These ribbons were the symbol for the highest commander of the Mutri Great Cavalry!
This was Huoba Sangye, chief guard of the Ü-Tsang Empire's royal capital, the leader of the Mutri Great Cavalry, and also Dalun Ruozan's earliest supporter. He had been one of the primary drivers behind this long-distance expedition to Talas. Without his support, without the addition of his seven thousand valiant Mutri Great Cavalry, Dalun Ruozan would have found himself powerless to realize his plans.
As chief guard of the royal capital and the leader of the crucial Mutri Great Cavalry, Huoba Sangye's most important duty was protecting the Tsenpo. The generations of chief guards had all been devotedly loyal, never leaving the capital without the Tsenpo's order.
But Huoba Sangye was shirking his duty, abandoning his post without the Tsenpo's order, and even bringing with him the Mutri Great Cavalry. Such a thing had never happened before in the history of Ü-Tsang, and according to the laws and precedent, he deserved the death penalty.
”Dalun Ruozan, no matter how this battle turns out, I only have a single request. Do not attempt to stop me from fighting with those Wushang Cavalry!”
Huoba Sangye's eyes were bright, his expression cold. His eyes cared not for the battle overall, but remained forever fixed on just one person.
”Of course!”
