The trumpet sounded again, washing over the empty plain.
When Lin Yun saw Cao Jun blowing the horn, he looked serious and called his soldiers to gather together, ready to deal with the cavalry attack at any time.
Most of Cao's troops were lancers, while most of Lin Yun's troops were heavy infantry.
Lin Yun thought that Cao Jun would charge over after blowing the horn.
But unexpectedly, Cao Jun's horn was blown several times.
The heavy infantry gathered together were nervous and ready to fight at any time, but the enemy still did not rush over.
More than 20,000 cavalrymen were wandering on the plain, seemingly hesitant to charge up the hillside.
"Come with me!"
Cao Su raised his hand and gave the order, and thousands of cavalry troops under his command rushed out after him.
He took away the horse archers under his command, only a few thousand in total.
Thousands of horse archers followed Cao Su into the formation, while the rest of the cavalry stayed put.
Zhang Ke, Li Li, Luo Yi and others restrained the remaining cavalry troops and waited for Cao Su's next order.
Cao Su personally led the cavalry to charge forward. Lin Yun was shocked. Is it finally coming?
He immediately shouted: "Archers, prepare!"
In the center of the formation surrounded by heavy infantry were numerous archers.
The Forbidden Army was well-trained, and after Lin Yun gave an order, countless arrows flew out and shot towards the swooping Cao Jun, densely packed like wasps.
"change!"
Cao Su raised his arms and shouted angrily.
The cavalry in the rear followed Cao Su and turned to the right. The countless arrows missed and all happened to be shot in front.
If Cao Jun continued to move forward, he would inevitably suffer some damage.
Now Cao Su led the team and took his cavalry around the bend, as if he had sensed it in advance, avoiding the missing arrows.
When the Tunqi camp fired into the air, Lin Yun turned around and stared at Cao Jun who was running wildly around the hillside.
At this time, Cao Jun cut in diagonally, and Cao Su took the lead and took off the long bow on his back.
Order loudly: "Shoot!"
At this moment, Cao Su left the reins with both hands and held the horse tightly with only his legs. He raised his arms and stretched his bow to draw the arrow. With a loud sound of the bowstring, the arrow broke through the space and suddenly flew into the high air.
After drawing a beautiful parabola, they attacked the heavy infantry formation that was stationary.
Lin Yun's expression changed drastically.
Behind Cao Su, there were countless bows and arrows, and the arrows that were thrown at him were lost while flying.
Aren't Cao Su's men also under the Imperial Guard?
Why in just six months, so many horse archers were trained like the prairie people, and why did they become an integral part of the entire team?
The impact of the cavalry is not as good as that of the lancers, but the mobility and flexibility of the cavalry are stronger than that of the lancers, making them the natural nemesis of the many heavy infantry under their command.
Lin Yun reacted very quickly and immediately shouted "Raise your shield".
The heavy infantry warriors under his command raised their large shields to block the arrows that were flying like raindrops.
Most of the arrow failures were blocked, and the casualties caused by sporadic arrow failures were also limited.
Cao Su led the few thousand horse archers under his command and circled the hillside, firing tens of thousands of arrows from all directions and angles, forcing Lin Yun's army to be unable to show its head and fight back.
After turning around, he walked away again, which was equivalent to taking a detour.
Cao Su led his cavalry and stopped in front of the original position.
Zhang Ke and other generals ran out with confidence on their faces: "General, the enemy is motionless, like a shrunken turtle. With thousands of arrows fired at once, we will surely defeat them in one fell swoop."
Cao Su did not have such a good attitude as them.
The opponent made it clear that they would fight with the turtle formation. If Cao Su attacked forcefully, he would play into the opponent's hands.
However, Zhang Ke's response to the flying arrows did not last long. How many arrows were lost among Cao's army?
Cao Su fell into silence and turned to look at the riding camp on the hillside. The best way was to avoid the camp directly.
Both sides of the hillside can be bypassed.
When Cao Su was thinking about how to break the turtle formation, Zhou Wei, who was floating in the sky, landed down, holding the communication talisman in his hand and looking pale.
"What's wrong?"
Cao Su asked in a deep voice.
Zhou Wei clenched the communication talisman in her hand and whispered: "The Taoist Palace will be closed for one year from today. Headmaster Wuchenzi ordered all the Qi Refiners outside the Taoist Palace to return to the Holy Mountain."
The Holy Mountain is a huge mountain on the edge of the divine capital. From here, you can see the majestic and huge mountain range, towering into the clouds, as if it is about to break the sky.
The Dao Palace has always been in the world to gain experience, so why did it suddenly call all the Qi refiners back to the palace?
Cao Su is a martial artist, so I don’t understand what these monks are thinking, but the Taoist palace has always been closely connected with the Qianyuan royal family. Now, the same room in the royal family is at war with each other, and various groups are fighting, causing turmoil in the divine capital. Is this the direct cause? ?
Zhou Wei and Qing Xiao were of great help to Cao's army. With the Qi Refiners, the entire army would be an advanced force in line with the world. Otherwise, it would still be somewhat inferior.
"It doesn't matter, then just listen to the master."
Although Cao Su said this, there was a clear "reluctance" on his face, which made Zhou Wei, who was originally ready to help Cao Su, feel a little guilty.
After working together with Cao Su for many days, the two of them went from ordinary colleagues to ordinary friends. Later, they experienced many incidents together, and even further, they became close friends.
Zhou Wei sighed helplessly: "Brother Cao, the Dao Palace has summoned me, and I have to go back."
"I just saw it from the sky. The archers in the middle of the cavalry camp don't have much shield defense. If you can rush directly to the middle, then this iron barrel formation will be destroyed without any attack."
She gave Cao Su the last piece of information, which came from battlefield observations.
Cao Su didn't take it seriously. He knew this without looking at it. A group of squishy archers must have been tightly protected in the middle.
And judging from the number of arrows shot by the previous cavalry camp, the opponent's number of archers was not large.
Zhou Wei acted resolutely and did not have many items to take away. After bidding farewell to Cao Su, he immediately flew into the air with his sword again and shot towards the sacred mountain.
"I Have a Picture Book of Ghosts and Gods"
Cao Su, on the other hand, continued to set his sights back on the battlefield.
When Zhang Ke made another suggestion, Cao Su directly rejected his proposal to attack head-on: "Let's go, don't worry about them, God is the most important, and everything else comes second."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After Cao Su finished speaking, he no longer considered whether the morale of the soldiers would be affected, and directly led the army to bypass the hillside.
The hillside was not high, so Lin Yun occupied the high ground and specifically restrained the cavalry charge.
Lin Yun was afraid that Cao Su would not come to beat him, so the atmosphere became so tense when they met.
Then the two armies fought like a drill, and Cao Su led his troops directly past Lin Yun, gave up attacking the fortress here, and went straight to the divine capital.
This is not like Xiguan, where you have to pass through one place.
Seeing that Cao Su gave up the attack, Lin Yun felt relieved for some reason.
But he still had a strong mouth and cursed loudly: "Thief Cao, don't run away. If you can hide from me here, will you be able to hide from me in the capital of God?"
When he spoke like this, all the soldiers below were a little confused.
Many soldiers at the lower level don't understand why they suddenly want to start a war when they are all forbidden troops.
It's best if we don't fight now. Everyone is just making ends meet, so there's no need to fight to the death.
The cavalry galloped past, and the tens of thousands of imperial troops on the hillside looked at the large number of cavalry in fear.
Although there are a lot of cavalry in Shendu, they are all divided into various battalions.
There is no one like Cao Su whose entire army is cavalry.
The movement and momentum of the 20,000 cavalrymen running were so majestic that they overshadowed all the noise.
In Lin Yun's army, a deputy general ran over angrily.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the supervisor sent by the palace.
"Lin Yun, why don't you attack? Lord Wang said that Cao Su must be intercepted here. If Cao Su is allowed to run to the Shendu City, how will you and I explain to Lord Wang?"
The Lord Wang mentioned by the supervisors is the now powerful Prince-Prince Wang Xian.
Lin Yun curled his lips secretly, when will I explain to the eunuch?
He felt angry and glared at the supervisor.
When Lin Yun approached, he was also a battle-hardened veteran, with an astonishing murderous aura.
Although the little eunuch had sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, his own strength was average. Being attacked by Lin Yun, his legs were so frightened that he felt like a wild beast, ready to tear him to pieces at any time.
"Master Wang, I will explain it myself."
"Cao's army is mostly cavalry, and our army is mostly infantry. How can a two-legged man catch up with a four-legged man? I don't need to say this, everyone understands it."
"The top priority is to report the situation of Cao's army to Lord Wang, and our army can quickly rush to Shendu to stop Cao's army."
Lin Yun showed the demeanor of a famous general and said several things clearly.
Lord Supervisor, who did not understand military affairs at all, was blushing. After all, he had suffered a loss because of his lack of professionalism, so he had no choice but to retreat with resentment.
Lin Yun was not very happy when he said that he had retired a small supervisor.
Cao Su was more arrogant than he thought, and such an arrogant person turned out to be so cunning.
Suddenly something moved in his mind, Cao Su wouldn't fight back, would he?
At this time, all the soldiers below breathed a sigh of relief as Cao's army rushed past.
