Chapter 542 The Plan Cannot Keep up with the Changes
Although Ling Xiao was not very lucky, with the support of Ling Diewu, he was able to draw the Death Knight to awaken.
And successfully activated a strategic skill - Dark Sky.
Dark Sky: Active skill, when activated, will condense a sky of death aura, forming an area that cannot be explored.
Exclusive skills for undead pets.
Although it can't enhance the combat effectiveness of the death knight, it doesn't matter.
Unless you are a hero, one person's courage cannot influence the situation of the war.
But the skill of Dark Sky is different. If used properly, this skill can influence the war situation.
Originally, Ling Xiao was planning to hide and look for opportunities.
But he didn't expect that because he didn't send anyone to contact Ling Yun, Ling Xiao's plan was in vain.
But now, there's nothing wrong with it.
Plans never keep up with changes.
Originally, Ling Xiao was preparing to attack the encirclement of the Xingyao Empire's expeditionary force head-on, looking for opportunities for the defenders of Yashuiguan.
As long as the army breaks out and retreats to Yashui City, the western border will not be completely breached.
When the Huangyuan Empire's imperial city regains its breath, they can send a large army to support them.
But what Ling Xiao didn't expect was that he just delayed one night to rest and reorganize his troops, and Ling Yun started to break out of the encirclement on his own.
But that’s fine too.
In this way, Ling Xiao's task was simplified to respond to the defenders of Yashui Pass leaving.
"Pass the order and get everyone ready."
"The mission this time is not to fight to the death, but to open a gap so that the defenders of Yashuiguan can leave."
After Ling Xiao gave the order, he leaned over and lay on the back of the Wind-walking White Horse.
He had a rest last night, which naturally had a reason for him to regain his strength.
After all, no matter how powerful a pet's skills are, they are not without consumption.
After the power is exhausted, you will no longer be able to use skills.
"Your Highness, the order has been conveyed."
A guard caught up from behind and reported to Ling Xiao.
"Okay, let's get started."
"Wind Breaking Dash!"
The speed of the wind-riding white horse increased instantly.
The growth rate of the Windwalking Domain also increased accordingly.
Ling Xiao lay on the back of the white horse riding the wind and rushed towards the encirclement of the Xingyao Empire's expeditionary force.
Ten thousand cavalry followed closely behind.
This speed was unexpected by everyone.
The ten thousand cavalry led by Ling Xiao were like sharp knives, piercing the encirclement of the Xingyao Empire's expeditionary force.
Wherever the cavalry went, corpses lay everywhere.
Because the Xingyao Empire's expeditionary force was guarding Yashuiguan, there were no spearmen or heavy shields deployed behind the army that could stop the cavalry.
With all the infantry, there was no way to stop the cavalry charge.
And because in the previous battle, Ling Xiao used 10,000 cavalry to wipe out 30,000 infantry, Rong Yukuo didn't know the details of the battle, so he didn't expect it.
The cavalry army led by Ling Xiao turned out to be so terrifying.
This is a situation that no one expected.
Ten thousand cavalrymen were blessed with the Windwalker Realm and rampaged through the Star Glory Empire Expeditionary Force, causing this encirclement that was still changing formations to fall into chaos for a while.
Ling Yun, who was fighting with the enemy, also noticed the situation here.
"Could it be that the Imperial City is coming to reinforce?"
"They are all cavalry. They are really here to break through the encirclement."
