Wang Zhongsi calmly surveyed the battlefield, as if the slaying of Saleh was a trifling task . Behind him, Saleh’s headless corpse and fallen head seemed to only magnify his majesty, making him seem like a god who had been born for battle .

For a moment, the entire battlefield went still!

Everyone was stunned by this sight!

The Blood Lion of Arabia, an infamous man who had stood above countless Governors and Deputy Governors, who had butchered entire cities and possessed an undefeated reputation, had died in the east to a Great General that no one even knew the name of .

This was a massive blow to those Arab cavalry who had looked up to Saleh .

“Kill them! Get rid of all these enemies who stand in our path!

“Zhangchou Jianqiong, An Sishun, use this chance to wipe out the God’s Ordained Cavalry! I sense that the battle will only get tougher from here!”

Wang Zhongsi spoke in a calm and unhurried tone . Behind him, Zhangchou Jianqiong and An Sishun had been stunned into speechlessness, but as they were still Great Generals, they quickly composed themselves .

“Mm!”

The two nodded and began to sharply shout orders as they led the Nine Dragon Army forward .

“Kill!”

At this time, the God’s Ordained Cavalry began to realize what had happened, and their eyes went red as they heedlessly threw themselves at Wang Zhongsi .

Several hundred God’s Ordained Cavalry fused their energies into one .

Saleh had an extremely high status within the God’s Ordained Cavalry, and by killing him, Wang Zhongsi had placed himself at the top of their kill list . But in the face of absolute power, immense anger was nothing but a clay chicken, unable to withstand even a single strike .

Boom!

Wang Zhongsi didn’t even glance at them, simply waving his sword and sending out a fan of Sword Qi that swept through the waists of these God’s Ordained Cavalry .

Plush! Plush! These God’s Ordained Cavalry were still several dozen feet away when they dropped to the ground, blood spurting out from their armor . Their armor was still whole, but Wang Zhongsi’s attack had penetrated through it to cut their bodies in half and end their lives .

Stellar-Piercing energy!

This was the ability upon which Wang Zhongsi had made his name, a technique that the Sage Emperor had passed down to his adopted son .

Wang Zhongsi had used this ability to conquer countless foes on his campaigns, striking fear into the hearts of many more .

Meanwhile, Guan Xuanhai and Fu Fangyi led his army into the fray .

The God’s Ordained Cavalry had not been able to gain the upper hand in their battle with the Nine Dragon Army, and now that their commander was dead and the enemy had been reinforced, they instantly found it harder to resist .

“Aaaah!” Screams tore through the air as the Great Tang soldiers crashed through the God’s Ordained Cavalry and instantly routed them .

“Hold!”

“Those who retreat will be executed!”

“Kill them! No one is allowed to retreat!”

The Arab Governors and Deputy Governors saw the front collapsing and flew into rage . None of them had expected their slight delay to result in such grievous consequences .

Bang!

The Arab Governors erupted with energy, and they immediately charged at Wang Zhongsi . Raaaa! The bellows of demon gods resounded through the air .

These furious Arab Governors and Deputy Governors used all their strength to deal with this archcriminal, unleashing the supreme arts of the Seventy-Two Demon God Pillars .

Wang Zhongsi was unperturbed by these assaults, swinging his sword at an Arab Governor . Zhangchou Jianqiong and An Sishun also charged forward .

The three of them together were nigh unstoppable . Swish! In a cold flash of light, this Arab Governor was soon separated from his head .

Unless they were experts of the same level, numbers were not guaranteed to achieve the desired result .

The Arab army crumpled in the face of the assault of the three top-class Tang Great Generals .

“Junior Guardian!”

“Junior Guardian!”

“Junior Guardian!”

All the Tang soldiers loudly cheered . Even though he had been retired for many years, Wang Zhongsi’s name still wielded extremely high prestige in the army .

“Wonderful!”

In the rear, King Song and Abusi were both elated .

“Zhongsi, I knew that you wouldn’t disappoint!”

King Song’s eyes were bright, his face excited .

This battle was simply too important, and if Wang Zhongsi hadn’t promptly intervened, the consequences would have been unthinkable .

A powerful mental wave entered King Song’s mind, coming from Tongluo Great General Abusi . “Your Highness, it is rumored that Lord Junior Guardian is extremely talented, so capable that when he was young, he could see through the flaws of his opponent in three seconds . Any person who trained in front of him would quickly be exposed… Is this true?”

There were far too many tales of the Crown Prince’s Junior Guardian . In the past, these would have been taken as tall tales that Abusi would have immediately discarded, but things were different now .

Wang Zhongsi’s slaying of Saleh had left far too deep of an impression . While Wang Zhongsi was strong, Saleh had been no weakling . Even if he was weaker than Wang Zhongsi, he shouldn’t have been slain in a single blow .

“Heh, haven’t you already seen it?”

King Song softly chuckled, his expression much more relaxed .

Abusi turned pensive, and then as he raised his head and saw the Crown Prince’s Junior Guardian sweeping unstoppably through the Arab army, he understood .

……

Meanwhile, in this deciding clash between east and west, the Crown Prince’s Junior Guardian displayed for the first time the strength of the War God of the east .

He did not use many formations or unique skills . He simply led his army in a direct charge, scattering and routing wave after wave of Arab cavalry . Not even God’s Ordained Cavalry could stand against him, and as horses shrieked and whinnied, swaths of panicked Arab riders were cut down .

In the art of war, there were soldiers who attacked directly and soldiers who attacked through innovative methods . Wang Chong excelled in using the latter, with his ballistae, the steel walls, and even a blizzard to kill one million Arab cavalry… Wang Zhongsi specialized in the former . He did not lead his soldiers with any sort of tricks . All of his moves were out in the open and easy to see, but they were nevertheless unstoppable .

From a certain perspective, one could say that Wang Zhongsi was a master of positional warfare . It was an ancient style of battle that was rendered into a divine skill in Wang Zhongsi’s hands . Not even Wang Chong was capable of such a feat .

As the Arabs in the center fell back, the proud cavalry of the western world began to panic . The Tang army under Wang Zhongsi’s command was sowing chaos through the ranks with astonishing speed, and more and more Arab cavalry were dying .

“How could it be like this?”

Even the God’s Ordained Cavalry were retreating, causing Abu Muslim to also begin to panic .

He had never met Wang Zhongsi, and in his eyes, the only person worth his regard in the Great Tang was Wang Chong . The God’s Ordained Cavalry was the most elite force in the Arabian Empire, and Abu Muslim had never imagined that it would be routed in a direct battle .

Even worse was that, given the direction Wang Zhongsi was advancing, it would soon be his turn .

Abu Muslim felt a vague unease .

“What? Abu Muslim, don’t you still want to conquer the Great Tang? Take my sword!”

Gao Xianzhi loudly laughed upon sensing the shift in Abu Muslim’s mood, and he unleashed his Eight Ultimate Sunderings Art once more .

While others might have been astonished to see Wang Zhongsi kill Saleh in a single blow, Gao Xianzhi was not .

While the battle seemed intense, the Great Tang had only mobilized half of its major leaders . Crown Prince’s Junior Guardian Wang Zhongsi had once been the strongest of the six Protector-Generals, even stronger than Andong Protector-General Zhang Shougui, so how could he possibly be mediocre?

These Arabs were just too simpleminded .

Victory was not guaranteed for the Arabian Empire!

As Gao Xianzhi sent down a barrage of attacks, Abu Muslim could only shut his mouth and focus on the battle .

“Damn it!”

On the distant elephant Behemoth, Khatabah’s face had chilled . This battle was much more difficult than he had envisioned .

Saleh’s death had been a major blow to Khatabah .

But Khatabah did not have the time to ponder . That eastern Great General was much stronger than he had anticipated, and his center was on the verge of collapsing . If he did not stop it now, his left flank and right flank would also be affected .

“Adnan!”

Khatabah sent out a powerful mental wave .

Buzz!

Several thousand feet away, a muscular figure more than two meters tall who had been waiting in reserve suddenly trembled and turned his head upon hearing Khatabah’s voice .
