Chapter 88 The Battle of the Nameless Pass (Part 2)
Immediately afterwards, Lei Xiao did not hesitate. In order to avoid the suspicion of the surrounding soldiers, he simply opened his mouth and said: "Huzhang, Nanxing, Nanyue, the three of you go and clear out the ambush archers in the woods.
Be careful not to be noticed by anyone."
"As you command!"
On the other side, the three subordinates surrounding Lei Xiao spoke softly in unison.
Needless to say, Nanxing Nanyue, who is wearing an invisibility cloak, is as fast as a fourth-level powerhouse. Coupled with the invisibility effect, he can naturally come and go with ease.
As a fifth-level powerhouse, Huzhang quietly moved from the back row of the team to the edge.
While everyone's attention was focused on Leng Yanjun on the opposite side, his figure swayed and he disappeared in an instant.
Immediately, surrounded by the remaining two subordinates, Ye Cang and Chao Yan.
Lei Xiao refocused his gaze on Baron Yes and the female knight Mora not far away.
At this time, the two were discussing something at the Chinese Army's position dozens of meters away.
Since there was no simultaneous interpretation from Huzhang, Lei Xiao could not hear the specific content.
However, it can be seen from the slightly excited look on Maura's pretty face.
This pair of living treasures probably got into a dispute again over what tactics to adopt to attack the pass.
"I really wonder how they got through the previous battle."
Shaking his head helplessly, Lei Xiao looked at Ao Feng and the other temporary squadron soldiers.
Everyone's faces were filled with nervousness, and many people's heads were already covered with beads of sweat.
The hands of the light cavalrymen who had lost their horses were even trembling slightly as they held their broad swords.
It seems that the bloody battle last night clearly made them deeply feel the fear of being dominated by the Lengyan Army.
After a while, Baron Yes and female knight Mora not far away finally finished their discussion. Judging from the smile on Mora's face, it was obvious that she had the upper hand this time.
At this time, I saw a middle-aged messenger in the middle army raising a green command flag. This was a signal that our own cavalry troops were preparing to launch an attack.
At the same time, the female Guards Knight Mora, who had returned to the front of the five cavalry squares, raised her lance and began the final encouragement before the attack.
"Hold your head high, warriors of the Holy Night, smash their shields, cut off their sharp blades, bring them death, bring them destruction!"
At this point, Mora, who was wearing heavy black armor and a black helmet on his horse, pointed the tip of his spear directly at the enemy formation a thousand meters away, and roared: "Charge!"
Rumble.
Suddenly, five hundred strong war horses that had experienced hundreds of battles, controlled by their owners, began to move forward at the same time, causing the entire earth to tremble slightly. It was an astonishing momentum.
The huge roar made people's ears start to buzz.
On the other side, Lei Xiao, who was on the flank of the Chinese army, squinted his eyes and watched all this quietly.
There is no doubt that this is the first time he has seen a real cavalry charge.
As the cavalry advanced, Lei Xiao noticed.
At the beginning, under the leadership of Mora, the speed of the five cavalry phalanx was not very fast, they just maintained a trot.
It's no wonder that at present, the distance between the enemy and us is still thousands of meters.
If we launch a high-speed charge now, I am afraid that before our cavalry can get close to the enemy's formation, the horses will no longer have enough physical strength.
Rumble...
Accompanied by the neighing of horses and the roar of hooves hitting the ground.
Looking at the figures of the five cavalry formations receding away, Lei Xiao, who was so shocked that his head was buzzing, couldn't help but show a hint of excitement.
"Is this a cavalry charge? Just watching from the back, it has such momentum.
If it were a head-on confrontation, I'm afraid the huge pressure alone would be enough to scare the soldiers on the opposite side, right?
It's exactly the same as what I saw in the movie of my previous life.
I have to say that this feeling of excellent light, shadow and sound effects is much more exciting than watching a 4D movie."
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao raised the face guard on his helmet and continued to observe.
Because all his attention was focused on the battlefield ahead.
He didn't notice at all that the action just now caused the sword weighing several dozen kilograms on his shoulder to slide downwards, almost cutting off an ear and half of Aofeng's shoulder next to him, causing the latter's little heart to almost break out.
jumped out of the throat.
At this time, the five cavalry phalanxes in front had already marched to the pass, about 500 meters away from the enemy's heavy infantry, which was waiting for them.
Immediately afterwards, because of the narrow pass in the mountain, the cavalry phalanx that was originally lined up began to change from horizontal to vertical, forming a new long snake formation.
Immediately, under the leadership of the heavy knight phalanx headed by Mora, all the cavalry almost at the same time kicked the silver standard spurs at the tail of their boots into the belly of the war horse under their crotches.
The next second, accompanied by waves of horses neighing in pain, the real charge began.
In an instant, 500 cavalrymen rushed towards the enemy formation not far away like an arrow from a string.
Five minutes ago, in the nameless pass.
"Captain, it looks like the gang of bastards from Shengye are about to rush over. Our ambush in the forest should be of great use, right?"
In the Chinese military formation inside the pass, a captain of the heavy infantry squadron of the Leng Yan Army could be seen, speaking to the commander of the Leng Yan Army with a mustache beside him.
"Those are, the two hundred long archers in the forest, my captain's elite.
They are all equipped with enchanted armor-piercing arrows and ice arrows that can slow down. Even the second-level heavy knight armor can be easily penetrated.
Besides, the deputy captain, who is at the peak of the second level of strength, will personally lead the team. I am afraid that a wave of arrows will be able to wipe out the entire opponent's cavalry square."
On the other side, the face of the mustached commander was full of pride.
In order for this ambush to go smoothly, he even took out an extremely valuable fourth-level magic scroll from the bottom of the box.
Then, a strong anger appeared on the face of the mustache commander, and he said with murderous intent: "Just let these cavalry rush into the pass, and cooperate with the archer ambush in the forest to slow down.
We can quickly take advantage of the narrow terrain to surround them. Without mobility, the cavalry is no different than a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
Once these cavalry are completely eaten, the squadrons of magicians on the opposite side don't have as far a range as the long archers in the forest, so it will only be a matter of time before we kill them all."
"The captain is wise!"
Hearing this, the heavy infantry squadron leader's face showed flattery again: "Captain, there is a Holy Night town ahead. When the time comes, shall we follow the old rules?"
"Haha, you just have to make arrangements." Upon hearing this, the commander of the Cold Flame Army stroked his beard with confidence and said with a smile.
However, the two were not happy for long.
When the phalanx of five knights led by Mora was about to attack, the two men began to look at each other in panic.
The magic weapon they had hidden in the forest seemed to have misfired for no apparent reason.
