The plains of Ba Sing Se stretched out before them, a vast canvas of brown and green, now marred by the grim spectacle of war. Dust swirled in the wind, kicked up by the thunderous hooves of thousands of war rhinos. The air thrummed with anticipation, a palpable tension hanging heavy over the battlefield.

On one side, a sea of crimson banners rippled in the breeze, marking the advance of the Nomads' Great Army. At their head, four figures stood out: Princess Azula, her eyes gleaming with an unsettlingly cool fire, her father-in-law, General Shoka, his face etched with a mixture of determination and apprehension, Oghuz, and the fearsome Khan Rokkun, his aura crackling with raw power.

Facing them, a wall of Earth Kingdom soldiers stood resolute, their earthy uniforms blending seamlessly with the landscape. General Fong, a seasoned warrior with a weathered face, surveyed the scene with a grim expression. Beside him, King Xuo, his face pale but resolute, prepared to face the inevitable.

Rokkun, his voice booming like thunder, broke the tense silence. "My brothers!" he roared, his voice echoing across the battlefield. "In the name of the Fire Nation! In the name of our ancestors! In the name of our honor! Let us unleash the fury of the sun upon these earthbound worms!"

A deafening roar erupted from the Fire Nomad ranks, a wave of crimson and black that washed over the battlefield. Soldiers pounded their fists against their chests, their war cries mingling with the grunting of Komodo rhinos and the distant rumble of drums.

General Fong, unfazed by the display, raised his hand. "Men of the Earth Kingdom!" he boomed, his voice surprisingly strong. "Stand firm! These invaders seek to conquer our land, to extinguish our spirit! But we will not yield! We will fight for our homes, for our families, for our freedom!"

The Earth Kingdom army responded with a thunderous cheer, a ground-shaking roar that echoed the defiance in their hearts. The stage was set. The clash of titans was about to begin.

Rokkun raised his sword in the air, its wicked blade gleaming in the sunlight.

"Attack!" Rokkun, a whirlwind of motion atop his war rhino, led the charge.

His sword, a gleaming blade of polished metal, sliced through the air, a beacon of fiery intent. Behind him, the Great Army army surged forward, a tidal wave of crimson and black engulfing the Earth Kingdom lines.

The initial clash was a cacophony of sound and fury. The thunder of hooves, the clang of metal against metal, the screams of the wounded, and the roar of battle filled the air. Dust swirled, obscuring the view, while the ground trembled beneath the relentless onslaught of the Fire Nomad advance.

King Xuo, his face grim, rallied his forces. "Hold the line!" he roared, his voice straining against the din of battle. "For the Earth Kingdom! For Ba Sing Se!"

The Earth Kingdom soldiers, though outnumbered, fought with a fierce, desperate courage. They hurled rocks and boulders, their earthbending abilities creating a chaotic, shifting landscape that slowed the Fire Nomad advance. But the sheer weight of the enemy's numbers was beginning to tell.

Azula, perched atop her own rhino, watched the battle unfold with a cold, calculating gaze. She surveyed the battlefield, her mind a whirlwind of tactical maneuvers. She saw weaknesses, opportunities, and the inevitable path to victory. A cruel smile touched her lips. This battle, like all others, would ultimately belong to the Nomads.

Rokkun ,his face etched with a mixture of grim determination and inner turmoil, fought alongside his men like a wild beast. He yearned for vengeance, and there was no stopping his rampage.

The battle raged on, an epic struggle between two mighty forces. The fate of the Earth Kingdom, and perhaps even the balance of power in the world, hung in the balance.
