Chapter 532 Savage Iron Cavalry!
The weapons in his hands were also unique. His main weapon was a specially made spiked club. The club was made of hard ironwood and the head was inlaid with sharp iron spikes. When swung, it could generate a huge impact and easily tear through the enemy's armor.
The second-in-command usually wields a short blade called "Flying Blade," which is thin and has sharp, saw-like edges. It is designed for close-quarters combat, and once the enemy gets close, almost no one can withstand its attack.
Furthermore, they did not march in a conventional square formation, but rather in a formation similar to ancient chariots.
On each chariot stood several warriors clad in rattan armor, wielding spears and giant shields, capable of both ranged attacks and close-quarters defense.
On either side of the chariot were light cavalry and heavy infantry, working closely together to form an invincible force.
This is in conjunction with the several scrolls of Nanman totems that Xuanyuan Po obtained when he subdued Wu Tiansheng, which contained special formations.
The moment the "Barbarian Iron Cavalry" stepped out of the camp, the entire battlefield seemed to tremble.
In terms of overall military appearance, the Wild Iron Cavalry displayed a primitive and wild beauty, with steady steps, each step seemingly touching the pulse of the battlefield, forming a stark contrast with the surrounding chaos.
"Yang Jian, Duke of Sui, repay kindness with kindness!"
"I will repay your valiant army with this 'Barbarian Iron Cavalry'."
Mo Ranchen's voice rang out from the command platform.
At the same time, the "Barbarian Iron Cavalry" had already begun their charge towards the rear of the Great Xuan Dynasty's army.
They moved with incredible speed, like an unstoppable torrent, and instantly broke through the defenses of the Great Xuan army.
Those valiant soldiers who were fighting against the anti-king coalition changed their expressions drastically when they saw the "barbarian cavalry" charging.
"Oh no! The enemy has changed their tactics!"
A general of the elite troops suddenly changed his expression, as he keenly sensed the unusual situation on the battlefield.
However, it was already too late. The "Barbarian Iron Cavalry" had already penetrated deep into the rear of the Great Xuan Dynasty's army like a sharp knife.
"Quickly! Go and report to the commander-in-chief!"
Another general of the Xiaoguo Army shouted loudly, and he hurriedly sent his messengers to inform Yang Jian of this emergency.
However, at this time, the rear of the Great Xuan Dynasty's army was already in chaos.
Those soldiers who were holding their ground panicked when they saw the "barbarian cavalry" charging.
In an instant, the defenses of the Great Xuan army were completely breached, and countless soldiers fell under the iron hooves of the "Barbarian Iron Cavalry".
Meanwhile, the "Barbarian Iron Cavalry" had already approached Yang Jian's location.
Those warriors, clad in rattan armor and wielding specially made spiked clubs, descended upon the rear of the Great Xuan Dynasty's army like the Grim Reaper.
The fierce charge was unstoppable, as if it would utterly destroy everything in its path.
"Protect the commander!"
Upon seeing this, some soldiers of the Great Xuan army hurriedly stepped forward to try to block the charge of the "Barbarian Iron Cavalry".
However, their efforts were in vain. The warriors in rattan armor were simply too powerful, easily cutting down the soldiers who stood in their way.
At this moment, the rear of the Great Xuan Dynasty army was engulfed in flames. Countless soldiers of the Great Xuan Dynasty fell under the charge of the "Barbarian Iron Cavalry," their blood staining the entire land red. The battlefield was filled with a heavy stench of blood.

The soldiers who were still holding their ground were exhausted and no longer able to withstand the charge of the "barbarian cavalry".
"General, something terrible has happened! A surprise enemy force is rapidly approaching!"
A scout rushed over, pale-faced, clearly shocked by the scene before him.
Upon hearing this, Yang Jian's expression changed drastically. He quickly looked into the distance and saw a strangely equipped and menacing army rapidly approaching. Its wildness and ferocity could be clearly felt even from a great distance.
"This...this is the army of those barbarian tribes from the Southern Barbarians?"
Yang Jian's heart sank. Such a peculiar army could only be the kind of style of those barbaric, bloodthirsty savages.
However, that primal wildness and fighting power stirred up an unprecedented sense of crisis in his heart.
"General, what should we do?"
The general beside him asked anxiously, for the situation was urgent.
Yang Jian took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner turmoil. At this moment, any panic could lead to irreversible consequences.
He stared at the rapidly approaching cavalry of the barbarians, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
"Pass down the order: the entire army prepares to meet the enemy! The Xiaoguo Army must immediately withdraw and rejoin the main force to jointly resist this barbarian army!"
Yang Jian remained calm in the face of danger, issuing orders methodically. His steady command acted like a shot in the arm, instantly stabilizing the previously chaotic situation around the command platform.
However, even so, the army of the Great Xuan Dynasty still faced unprecedented challenges in the face of the overwhelming offensive of the barbarian cavalry.
The barbarians of the Savage Iron Cavalry seemed to have gone berserk, tireless. Every charge and every swing of their clubs was accompanied by the cries of agony and the fall of many soldiers of the Great Xuan Dynasty.
Numerous figures clad in rattan armor left trails of death on the battlefield; wherever they went, no one survived.
Blood and fire intertwine to create a series of brutal scenes.
Although the army of the Great Xuan Dynasty fought hard, it was still struggling to cope with the almost frenzied offensive of the barbarian cavalry.
Yang Jian's gaze pierced through the thick smoke, fixed on the army that was rampaging like a ferocious beast, and a sense of foreboding, unlike anything he had ever felt before, suddenly welled up in his heart.
Sure enough, shortly after Yang Jian's ominous premonition arose, the situation on the battlefield underwent another astonishing change.
The barbarian cavalry, which had been rampaging through the Great Xuan Dynasty's army like a tidal wave, suddenly let out a deafening war roar. The roar contained endless wildness and ferocity, as if it were a call from the ancient barbaric era, striking the deepest fear in people's hearts.
With this battle cry, the blood energy of the numerous barbarian cavalry seemed to be mobilized by an invisible hand, intertwining and merging with the black, malevolent energy permeating the battlefield, forming an unprecedented and eerie energy.
This energy condensed and churned in the air, eventually transforming into an enormous Dharma image, hovering above the barbaric iron cavalry, like a demon god from the deepest hell, overlooking this land ravaged by war.
The appearance of this Dharma image is that of a Southern Barbarian Demon God, which is a combination of various totems of the Barbarian soldiers. It has six ferocious heads, each with two eyes that gleam with an eerie light, as if it can see through all the illusions of the world.
Its body, composed of blood and murderous aura, was exceptionally robust, with bulging muscles and exuding a strong bloody and battlefield aura. Each of its twelve arms held a different weapon, including a spiked club, a short, dagger-like blade, a spear, and a giant shield...
