The sky was dark.
But with the illumination of the sun and the moon, the path to battle was bright and smooth.
This time, Chu Yuan made thorough preparations for the battle against the Hanging Sky.
Each soldier was not only equipped with a God Slaying Crossbow, but also a Rocket Crossbow. Even the size of the Divine Cannon fleet was impressive, with a hundred thousand in total, surpassing the equipment of the Five Star Imperial Dynasty.
All these valuable assets were obtained from the System Space.
Great Stream Imperial Dynasty, Water Creek Plains.
This was the largest plain within the territory of the Great Stream Imperial Dynasty, vast in area.
On the eve of the war, the ruler of Great Stream Dynasty had ordered this area to be turned into a massive battlefield, capable of accommodating tens of billions of soldiers.
The banners of the Hanging Sky Dynasty fluttered densely here, radiating a silvery glow.
Fifty million elite soldiers of the Hanging Sky Dynasty were stationed here.
Facing the Great Wu Dynasty, the Hanging Sky Dynasty's army showed disdain and contempt. They were the strongest legion within the Hanging Sky region. To challenge a Three Star Dynasty, they hardly needed fifty million soldiers and billions of Great Stream Dynasty's troops.
With only ten million soldiers, they could march straight into Great Wu Dynasty and destroy Dawu.
Nevertheless, King Xiyang ordered them to stay and wait for the arrival of the Great Wu Dynasty's army.
"It has been a long time since someone dared to challenge my Hanging Sky Dynasty."
"Indeed, it has been so long without a major battle that my sword has dulled, and I have become complacent. I wonder how many blows I will get to land on the soldiers of Dawu."
"The last big battle we've fought in was a thousand years ago, when a Four Star Dynasty foolishly believed that because they had accumulated some strength and had a few God Position powerhouses, they could challenge the status of my Hanging Sky Dynasty. They also ended up annihilated. Dawu is far inferior to that Four Star Dynasty."
"What was the name of that Four Star Dynasty? I forget."
"It has long turned into dust, swept into the corner of history. Who would remember such losers?"
"I can't wait to see the arrival of Dawu's army!"
Everyone in the Hanging Sky Dynasty appeared eager for the arrival of the Dawu army.
The lack of major battles for thousands of years also meant they had lost many opportunities to achieve military exploits.
In a certain palace.
"Emperor of Great Stream, where is the Dawu Dynasty's army now?"
Upon receiving the orders, although the generals and soldiers didn't think the Great Wu Dynasty's army would be formidable, they still prepared for battle across the entire army.
Once they annihilated Dawu's forces, they would have eliminated the essence of Dawu, and they could then plunder the wealth of the Dawu Army.
The Floating Sky Dynasty was also interested in the resources of the Great Wu Dynasty.
To the Floating Sky Dynasty, destroying Dawu and reaping the benefits would be even more substantial than annihilating several Four-Star Imperial Dynasties.
Meanwhile.
The robust soldiers of Dawu.
They would reach the Shuixi Plains after five days' march.
The smoke of war was approaching.
"Your Majesty, King Xi Yang has already set up his formation in the Shuixi Plains, ready for battle, waiting for the arrival of our Great Wu Dynasty."
Lu Qianfu, passing through the fifty thousand Divine Army guarding the Ancient Emperor's chariot, kept an eye on the large army. This army of fifty thousand, descending like the gods, was terrifyingly powerful. It was unclear where they came from, seeming not like humans, but more like war machines.
"March at a steady pace and control the time within five days. Presumably, the Floating Sky Dynasty has found a way to counter our God Position Cannons."
Chu Yuan replied.
"Indeed, King Xi Yang is always cautious in leading the army and never underestimates his opponents. According to the information I have received, in order to defend against the God Position Cannons, they have built extremely solid fortresses and set up various defense formations. Moreover, they also have cannons on their side, capable of counter-bombardment."
Lu Qianfu said.
"They're being cautious indeed, but all they know is the power of the cannons we used in the Black Ming Dynasty. They don't know that I've created a more powerful God Position Cannon using Meteor Spirit Gold lately, and our newly equipped rocket crossbows are beyond their expectations."
Chu Yuan sat immovably inside the Ancient Emperor's chariot.
With the equipment crafted from the System Space, the Dawu troops were more powerful than those of the Floating Sky Dynasty.
Moreover, with the fifty thousand Divine Army which were the most elite troops, Chu Yuan had a solution to combat the God Positions of the enemy.
The Floating Sky Dynasty investigated him thoroughly. However, they only knew a fraction of his power.
"This battle will be my first step towards dominating the Floating Sky realm!"
Chu Yuan's gaze had already reached the numerous Floating Sky Dynasty armies on the distant Shuixi Plains.
Five days later.
They arrived at the Shuixi Plains!
