The orcs and demons were killing wantonly on the battlefield. The forty thousand light cavalrymen were unstoppable. Just as the light cavalrymen were overjoyed and saw the tail of the enemy appear in their eyes, they were about to complete a huge encirclement. Suddenly, they saw the figures of the two wings fluttering, and a large number of enemy appeared in front of them.
Ah, they were 10,000 demons, 10,000 vampires and 10,000 beasts. They formed two fists, each with 15,000 people. Like a two-headed python, they suddenly appeared at the rear of the army formation and intercepted the light cavalrymen who were as fast as the wind. Boundless killing intent surged like waves and enveloped the light cavalrymen of the Bright Legion who were close to them.
The 10,000 demons and 10,000 vampires were both from the Abyss. They were demons who often invaded the Country of Light. In their long lives, they had experienced more than 100 battles. The two main forces each led 5,000 pirates on the ground. Like two huge pincers, they intercepted the 40,000 light cavalrymen that were charging at them like sparks.
The speed of light cavalry was the fastest among the ground troops. They galloped from the far end of the formation. The light cavalry was fully equipped with armor, weapons, and helmets, weighing only 100 pounds. Including the knights themselves, they weighed less than 300 pounds. Their warhorses were as fast as the wind. They ran along the two wings to the middle and had already reached an astonishing speed. From afar, they looked like two earth dragons rushing over. The surging dust shrouded the knights behind them.
" Hehehe..." With a series of grim laughter, those demons and blood clans who were hiding at the rear of the demon corps uttered ear-piercing sneer. Closely after that, they flew into the sky while flapping their wings. Closely after that, pairs of demon's wings and crow's wings which had been restrained for a long time spread out like bamboo shoots after a rain. Closely after that, they leaped into the sky with grim laughter.
Demons were the most powerful dark race in the Abyss. Because they were not afraid of sunlight, their resistance to light and holy light was far stronger than other dark races. They were known as the "nemesis of angels". Demons of every level could compete with angels of the same level without fear.
In comparison, the Blood Breeds were slightly inferior. They were naturally afraid of the sunlight. Every vampire warrior was covered from head to toe in a full set of light-resistant magic armor to prevent the deadly sunlight from shining. In the 100,000 years of peace, the dark races of the Abyss used all their technology to develop a large number of magic armor that could resist the sunlight and the corrosion of the Holy Light. This allowed the dark races who feared the sunlight to fight under the sunlight.
The vampire transformed into a crow and flew into the sky. The Light Resistance Magic Armor of the Blood Clan was specially developed by the Vampiric Empire. It had the ability to transform into both human and crow shapes. Even if he transformed into a crow, he could press the transformation button before transforming, and the transformation array engraved on the magic armor would be activated. The entire magic armor would automatically adjust to the corresponding state according to the change in body shape. Even if the crow flew in the sky, its head, feet, and body would still be tightly wrapped without any gaps. It could also prevent arrows from shooting to a certain extent.
In the ancient times of the Celestial Empire, there were weapons such as scythes and daggers that specialized in restraining cavalry. The scythe spear was used to deal with the allied cavalry, which was a group of cavalry in a row. The ground lying saber was used to specifically restrain the cavalry of independent units. Together with the circular shield hanging on the left arm of the demons, they formed an incomparably fierce rolling dragon.
The cavalries of the Empire were suffering a heavy loss. Seeing that the Demon Corps, which had the advantage, was slowly moving back and trying to regain their footing, Wu Shuang was a bit puzzled as to why the demons were retreating. The demons could completely crush the Empire's army in one go. Although there would be a lot of casualties, after all, the demon soldiers were far stronger than the Empire in terms of quality and number. The Empire could only rely on the cooperation between soldiers and the strategy of generals.
Wu Shuang shook his head. He could not imagine the worst reason. The navy of the Empire was invincible. It was known as the Ocean Fortress. No one could defeat the navy of the Empire on the sea. Why didn't the navy of the Empire bypass the Western Continent and reach the North Sea? Why didn't they go upstream through the Cang River to attack the Demon Race? Could it be that the Cang River was impossible?
The demons were slowly retreating while the imperial army was attacking the demon army. Wu Shuang dared not imagine what the demons 'target would be if the navy failed. Wu Shuang couldn't help but turn around and look at the Jade Gate Pass that was thousands of miles away. Suddenly, Wu Shuang seemed to have understood something as his face turned pale. At this moment, Sima De Le, the commander-in-chief, also seemed to have discovered something. He looked behind him. At this moment, countless thoughts flashed across his mind as his face turned pale. Then, he looked at Wu Shuang. Their eyes met and they both understood each other's thoughts. The most unimaginable thing had happened. The Empire's navy had been destroyed and the Demon Race was now attacking the Jade Gate Pass. The Demon Race now had the strength to wipe out the Empire's army. Naturally, they did not have to take the risk to fight a decisive battle with the Empire. Wu Shuang pointed to the sky while Sima De Le smiled bitterly. He pointed to himself and then pointed to the ground.
When the four of them became sworn brothers when they were young, they once prayed to heaven and earth not to be born on the same year, month, and day, but to die on the same year and day. Wushuang meant that he would leave first, and heaven would accept him. Sima De Le meant that he wished him well, but he could not go with him.
After a few seconds that felt like the end of the world, Sima De Le finally gritted his teeth and made a decision. He saluted Wu Shuang with the highest military salute in the empire. Wu Shuang silently accepted it and looked at his subordinates without moving. At this time, Sima De Le shouted,"Messenger, sound the bell and withdraw the troops. The army will retreat. The 1st Central Division will cover the retreat. I will lead the Imperial Guards to retreat back to Jade Gate Pass first.
