”Not good!”

”Careful! They're attacking from the flanks!”

The flanks of the Mamelukes fell into panic and disorder, but the Mamelukes were able to exert their formidable fighting power and organizational abilities to immediately form basic defense lines on their flanks before the four thousand Wushang Cavalry could impact.

In this world, probably only the Mamelukes were capable of forming two defense lines in less than a second.

But even so, it was still too late.

Both were supreme cavalry forces with similar levels of strength, so no matter what measures were taken, the result had already been decided.

In a flash of scimitars and swords, the cavalry clashed, but the defense line set up by the Mamelukes was only able to last a few moments before the torrent-like charge of the four thousand Wushang Cavalry dashed them to pieces.

Neigh!

All was mayhem as the four thousand Wushang Cavalry knocked countless Mamelukes to the ground to be trampled to death by countless warhorses.

”What!”

Beneath the fluttering black war banner, Aybak's pupils constricted. The Mamelukes were used to crushing their opponents with overwhelming force through a direct charge, so they had never expected the Tang to take this line. Moreover, the area those four thousand Wushang Cavalry had chosen to attack was exactly the weakest part of the Mamelukes' defense. Aybak had wanted to issue an order, but he had been too late.

Rumble! Dust billowed into the sky as innumerable warhorses fell to the ground. In a single clash, the Mamelukes had suffered severe casualties. They had not lost in terms of strength or formation, but to Cui Piaoqi's tactical mind and ability to command.

”Mass charge! Break them!”

Cui Piaoqi's cold and deep voice resounded like a bell over the battlefield as he led the charge into the Mamelukes from the front. Meanwhile, the four thousand Wushang Cavalry were continuing to charge back and forth, cutting apart the Mamelukes and preventing them from reassembling and organizing a defense.

Ten Charges Ten Victories!

This was originally the very last of the ten great formations of the apocalyptic era, and in terms of offense, it was inferior to the Asura Hell Formation. But Cui Piaoqi, after deep thought, had decided to divide his army into two. Six thousand Wushang Cavalry would directly oppose the enemy using the Asura Hell Formation. Meanwhile, four thousand Wushang Cavalry would use the Cutting Formation of the Ten Charges Ten Victories Formation to attack the Mamelukes at their weakest point and throw their formation into chaos.

Reality proved that Cui Piaoqi's tactics had played a decisive role.

In this clash of armies, the Mamelukes had never even planned to deal with this kind of eastern tactic. They had immediately been routed and thrown into disarray. No one had expected this.

”Bastard!”

Aybak clenched his fists, his face immediately contorting into a nasty grimace and his body trembling in rage. But no matter what he said, it was already too late.

Cui Piaoqi, this really is your style. I knew that you wouldn't let me down.

As Wang Chong watched all this take place, a smile finally appeared on his face.

Back then, Wang Chong had chosen Cui Piaoqi to be the number one general under his command not only because of his extraordinary strength, but more importantly because of his ability to make impromptu decisions on the battlefield. No matter the occasion, he would always make surprising and unconventional decisions that were suited to the situation on the battlefield. No one else under Wang Chong's command could compare.

In this clash, the Wushang Cavalry had indisputably crushed the Mamelukes and determined their place as the strongest cavalry in the world.

”Congratulations to user! For defeating the Mamelukes, you have been rewarded 1000 points of Destiny Energy!

”Congratulations to user! The Wushang Cavalry have obtained the title of 'Strongest Cavalry'. You have been rewarded 2000 points of Destiny Energy!

”User has completed a hidden side mission, 'Heroes vie for supremacy, cavalry contend for dominance', and has been rewarded an extra 1000 points of Destiny Energy for a total of 4000 points of Destiny Energy!”

A string of messages rushed through Wang Chong's mind, but he didn't have the leisure to worry about them. This battle was no longer a clash between soldiers, but a war in which the fates of the east and the west were on the line. As the strongest force of the Great Tang side, the ten thousand Wushang Cavalry were not only facing the Mamelukes. Behind the Mamelukes were the six thousand Mutri Great Cavalry and the five thousand Celestial Wolf Cavalry.

Rumble!

There was a thunderous rumbling as the Wushang Cavalry, Mamelukes, Mutri Great Cavalry, and Celestial Wolf Cavalry descended into a melee. The ringing of weapons, screams, and the trembling earth created a mighty din as these four elite cavalry forces fought, and the situation of the battle became uncertain once more.
