Chapter 975: The mighty Yulin and the unbridled youth!
At this moment, on the east side of Hulu Valley, the Yulin Army under Su Ye's command was like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath, tearing a silver gap in the morning mist.

This elite division, which was deliberately arranged on the flank, was now facing a group of "special forces" of mixed quality that Meng Zhang had finally selected from among the hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban Army - a motley crowd of 20,000 bandits who were temporarily recruited.

Well. Meng Zhang picked it out specifically to help Su Ye improve his battle record!
"Haha, General, look, the flags of these Yellow Turban bandits are all covered with patches."

"It looks like it was fished out of a swill bucket."

Huo Qubing pulled the reins, his black cloak fluttering in the morning breeze. He pointed at the crooked "yellow" flags on the opposite side. The young general's armor reflected a pearl-like luster in the morning sun.

"Meng Zhang wants to borrow our knife to weed the weeds in his backyard."

Wei Qing gently stroked the coiled dragon pattern on the bronze hilt in his hand, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his raised arm drew an elegant arc in the morning light. The cloud and thunder pattern embroidered on the plain white battle robe appeared faintly with his movement.

"Order all units to advance in the Yanling formation."

Wei Qing gently stroked the black iron arrow in his palm, and the crisp sound of jade hitting each other came from under the bronze mask.

"Ding! Wei Qing's skill Heroic is activated!
Hero: Go straight to Qusai, expand Henan, break Qilian, connect with the Western Country, and defeat the Northern Hu. This skill is exclusive to Wei Qing, Marquis of Changping.

Effect 1: When you are the main general in the battle, you will increase your command by 2 points. When you are fighting against alien races, your command will be increased by 1 point. The combat power and morale of the whole army will be greatly improved. If the alien race is your mortal enemy, your will to fight to the death will be greatly improved.

Effect 2: The Yulin Army is loyal to the country. The army can train "Tao soldiers" Yulin Army. When the army is in command of the whole army, the military strength of non-cavalry is increased by 1 point, the military strength of cavalry is increased by 2 points, and the military strength of the Yulin Army trained by the army is additionally increased by 1 point. Moreover, the whole army of Yulin is loyal to the country, and the loyalty of the whole army of Yulin is greatly improved.

Effect 3, Eagle Soaring into the Sky, when you advance to a Saint-level commander, this effect will be released. When you lead the entire army into battle, the speed of the entire army will be greatly increased, and the speed of the entire cavalry will be increased by an additional 50%. When the weak is against the strong or the enemy is average, the combat power and morale of the army you lead will be greatly increased. When the strong is against the weak, all effects of the opponent's commander that reduce the combat power of the entire army will be ignored. When you are on the same battlefield as Runuo and Huo Qubing, you can launch the combination skill "Eagle and Wolf".

Effect 4, Seventh expedition to the Huns, General Wei, when leading the entire army to fight against foreign races, if the number of expeditions exceeds 3 times, each time a foreign race is conquered thereafter, the commander will receive an additional +1 (up to +1, before the 4th expedition, the additional bonus for conquering foreign races can be retained, and must be re-added after the 8th or even later time).

Effect 5, Flying General of Dragon City, Marquis of Changping. When you successfully destroy one of the alien countries (with a population of more than 1 million), your basic commander will be permanently +4, and the additional commander bonus of effect 4 can convert 1 of the points into a bonus when the skill is activated. When you are affected by any negative effects that reduce intelligence and commander, you will ignore any negative effects.

Wei Qing’s current basic command is 101 (102), the effect of the hero skill is +2, and the current command value rises to 103!

Increase the Yulin Cavalry's strength by 2 points."

At his command, the 3,000 Yulin cavalry on both wings of the Yulin Army flew like a flock of egrets. When the entire army suddenly accelerated, even the sound of horse hooves maintained an astonishing rhythm.

These carefully selected warriors were all wearing silver armor, with the armor plates connected by shark silk, which shone like flowing water under the morning sun.

The eight hundred "Black Scale Cavalry" in the front row, trained by Huo Qubing himself, were even more exquisitely equipped. The horses were all covered with black gold vests, and the knights' visors were cast in the shape of a ferocious Taotie. The two-meter-long lances in their hands pointed diagonally at the sky, and the red tassels on the lance tips stretched out like blood clouds in the wind.

Behind them, the "White Flag Vanguard" trained by Wei Qing among the Yulin Army held high a white flag. The pearl on the flag crown was emitting a colorful halo in the morning mist. Behind them, a thousand heavily armored cavalrymen were lined up like a forest. Dark patterns flowed on the black iron armor. Su Ye ordered the Mohist craftsmen to make it with meteorite iron mixed with fine steel. Ordinary swords and knives could not hurt it at all.

"Go away, it's your turn to show your face."

Wei Qing turned his head to look at the young general in white robe beside him. At this moment, Huo Qubing was bending his bow and drawing an arrow. The arrowhead was made of black gold, and the feathers were taken from the snow sculptures of Tianshan Mountain. At this moment, it was trembling slightly in the morning breeze, like a living thing. He laughed loudly when he heard the words, and the white horse rushed out of the battle with a long neigh, followed by 36 personal guards behind him, each carrying a five-stone iron bow, a spring crossbow hanging from his waist, and the cold light in the quiver box flashing like a star.

"Ding! Huo Qubing's skill Junhou is activated!
Huo Qubing's current basic command is 98 (99), and he is currently commanding cavalry in battle. The effect of Junhou's skill 4 is activated, and his command is +3.

Huo Qubing's current command value has risen to 101!"

This "elite division" selected by Meng Zhang on the flank of the Yellow Turban Army was originally a motley crowd temporarily recruited from various states and counties, and was now setting up camp in a chaotic manner.

Suddenly, I heard the sound of horse hooves like thunder on the mountain path. I looked up and saw white cavalry all over the mountains like dark clouds pressing down on the city. The cold murderous aura caused the temperature in the valley to drop sharply.

"Fire arrows!"

Huo Qubing suddenly raised the black iron command arrow, and the white feather arrows in the quiver still had the coolness of the morning dew.

In an instant, a rain of arrows rose from the Yulin Army. These specially made "armor-piercing" arrows were specifically designed to attack leather armor. The barbs on the arrowheads would immediately burst open after penetrating the human body, forming a fatal wound shaped like a six-petal lotus.

The first round of arrow rain covered the sky and the sun. The black gold arrowheads pierced through cloth armor like rotten soil. Amid screams, the Yellow Turban Army's front line was immediately thrown to the ground.

What was even more terrifying was the spring-loaded crossbows, which fired twelve iron-feather arrows in succession and actually shot the general's flag into pieces.

The Yellow Turban soldiers on the opposite side who were still holding farm tools were suddenly thrown to the ground. A bearded man had just raised his hoe when an arrow pierced through his straw sandals, nailing him to the ground.

One of the Yellow Turban leaders had just raised his sword and shouted when he was pierced through the throat by three consecutive arrows. His body was still twitching as it hung on the flagpole.

"These bastards can't even form a battle formation!"

Huo Qubing looked at the defeated Yellow Turban Army, his brows full of youthful vigor. He took off his gilded hesperid crown and let his black hair fly in the wind.

"Black Scale Cavalry, listen to my orders! Follow me and attack the central army!"

Before he finished speaking, he had already charged into the enemy camp, the gilded lance in his hand dancing like a golden python, the tip of the lance aimed at the enemy general's throat.

"It's the Yulin Army's 'Starfall Crossbow'!"

Some of the Yellow Turban soldiers from the northern border and northern Hengzhou looked pale.

"In the previous battle in the northern border, the Night Evil Cavalry suffered a lot..."

Before he finished speaking, Huo Qubing had already led his personal guards and eight hundred "Black Scale Cavalry" into the formation. The cold light of the spear tips passed by and the sound of shields breaking could be heard one after another.
