Chapter 367 [Who said trenches can’t be dug behind? 】
The Imperial Military High Command was obviously somewhat unexpected by the reaction of Northwest Army Commander Lu Gao.
Their "change of defense" military order stipulated a marching route from the northwest all the way eastward and then to the north mountain. The Northwest Army was ordered to strictly follow the marching route of the military headquarters within the required date. However, no one would think that Lu Gao of the Northwest Army
Will I really accept this "order"?
To put it bluntly, the empire knew that Lu Gao, who was actually a separatist warlord, could not easily give up his family property and power. Therefore, this order to change defenses was just to force Lu Gao to rebel. Lu Gao rebelled first,
The empire can then send troops to "quell the rebellion" openly.
At least, in terms of the morality of war, the Empire Center needs to stand on a commanding height. This is also the historical practice.
So when the official document that Lu Gao accepted the order was delivered to the imperial capital, a group of staff and generals in the headquarters thought they had made a mistake.
Did Lu Gao really surrender so easily?
The issue of the warlord separatism of the Northwest Army, which had been a headache for the empire for twenty years, was solved with just such a military order? One year of war preparations, large-scale army mobilization, preparation of weapons and equipment and other materials... none of them were sent
use?
At this time, the person who really played the backbone role in the military department was the old Prime Minister Rob Schell, who had been sidelined as the Acting Minister of Military Affairs.
"What are you doing standing still?" Although the old prime minister was old, his tone had a sense of dignity: "Immediately issue another military order, ordering Lu Gao, commander of the Northwest Army, to go to the imperial capital to report on his duties immediately! The deadline is within ten days after receiving the military order.
We have to reach the imperial capital!"
The old prime minister snorted, do you think this will make us at a loss? Hum, Lu Gao. No matter what tricks you want to play, but do you really dare to come to the imperial capital alone? If you refuse to come, then still
You can be sentenced for not respecting military orders.
"Ask the Magic Guild for help and deliver the military order as quickly as possible!" This was the old prime minister's decision.
After making the decision, the old prime minister looked at Camisillo next to him with a smile. His tone was very polite: "Master Camisillo, please report this matter to His Highness the Regent. The matter is urgent. I
I think His Highness will definitely agree."
Urgent military orders came and went between the Imperial Capital and the Northwest Army.
At the beginning, just as Old Robschere expected, Lu Gao immediately replied to the letter to defend himself, saying that the entire Northwest Army was moving north to change defenses. He really couldn't get away from the large number of complicated military affairs, and asked for a postponement of going to the imperial capital to report on his duties.
Order.
Then Robschel wrote a very stern official document, ordering Lu Gao to return to the imperial capital. Otherwise, he would be disobeying his order.
At the same time, a division of the Storm Legion heading south was already only a hundred miles away from Nulin Province, and a division of the Wangcheng Guards heading east had also arrived at the sinful city of Big Ear City.
Strategically, the encirclement of the Northwest Army has been completed.
To the west of the Northwest Army is Du Wei's army. To the south is Governor Bohan's army. To the southeast is the Royal Guards, and to the northeast is a division of the Storm Legion.
Of course, all these troop movements have the best excuse of "spring drills".
Lu Gao had a war of words with the military department, and each document was delayed back and forth. An hour after a military officer received it, a copy was placed on Du Wei's desk. This is the magic circle of the Continental Magic Society.
The transferred files. As one of the founders of the Magic Society and one of the committee members of the Magic Academy, Du Wei made full use of the resources at hand this time.
Although the regent didn't say anything, it was obvious that Du Wei was the main force in dealing with the Northwest Army this time.
Robschel is too old. And after all, he is just a civil servant.
As for the army, the regent did not appoint a clear commander. Instead, he stated that everything was headed by the Duke of Tulip. After all, in terms of military strength, Du Wei controlled more than half of the army. If he had not been too junior, he would have been there long ago.
The order explicitly appointed him as commander-in-chief.
"Cunning Lu Gao." After Du Wei saw Lu Gao's excuse, this was his only excuse.
But then, Lu Gao actually made an even more unpredictable move.
According to the latest military report from the Northwest Army, Army Commander Lu Gao finally stated that he accepted the order from the military headquarters, and one day later, he actually went on the road to the imperial capital. Moreover, he actually brought only two hundred cavalry to accompany him as escort.
When this news came, even Du Wei was a little surprised.
The news of Lu Gao's trip to Beijing was passed back one after another on the road. Moreover, Lu Gao and his party marched along the road to the imperial capital with great fanfare. Even after he left Watt Fortress, he passed by the garrison of the Royal Guards. Lu Gao
He also met the general of the division as if nothing was wrong, and then gave him a little encouragement. Is he crazy?
Afterwards, Lu Gao and his party set out on the road in a swaggering manner. Whenever they passed through towns on the way, Lu Gao would meet with the local garrison government officials in a grand manner. Naturally, there were spies from the imperial capital on the road who quickly passed the news back to the imperial capital one by one.
For three days in a row, Old Robschel received information about which city Lu Gao had gone to, who he had met, and which road he had taken... Moreover, all the spies who brought back the information wrote in their secret reports that they were absolutely the real ones.
I saw Lu Gao himself!
Then, this difficult question is placed in front of the empire... To fight, or not to fight?
In the imperial capital, someone immediately suggested that while the tiger had left its lair and there were only two hundred guards around Lu Gao, they should immediately send people to capture this guy. Once the enemy chieftain was captured, the northwest army would naturally be leaderless.
But this suggestion was immediately rejected.
Caught? Do you need to be arrested? Now that Lu Gao has made it clear, he has come in a big way, with only two hundred people with him, and he has come all the way to the imperial capital. He has already surrendered himself, why is it necessary to send someone to arrest him? Instead, he ended up with one
The rhetoric of “killing the hero”?
The imperial capital repeatedly confirmed the source of the news, and also checked the situation at Watt Fortress, the headquarters of the Northwest Army. In Watt Fortress, a main division of the Northwest Army had set off a day ago. The entire army honestly followed the military orders.
We followed the underground route all the way north. And it was still under the supervision of the Storm Legion, and there was no change at all.
A large number of baggage, ordnance, chariots and horses were also on the road.
Everything seemed like Lu Gao had really given up and decided to surrender to the empire. He honestly "switched the defenses" of the Northwest Army to the north.
At this time, even Robschel and Prince Chen were vaguely shaken: Lu Gao, maybe he really surrendered like this.
After all, this is a war that is bound to be lost. There is no need for Lu Gao to fight to the death. Moreover, as long as he surrenders and returns to the imperial capital, no matter what. Although he previously separated the northwest, he still maintains the same face as the imperial capital, and
He has never really rebelled, and speaking of it, he has some merit. As long as he hands over his military power and can be a pure minister with peace of mind, then after he returns to the imperial capital, no matter what, the regent will not kill him. On the contrary
They will also give him a high-ranking official, a generous salary, a vacant position, and take good care of him. At most, he will only lose his power, but his life will definitely not be a problem. Maybe, as long as he is honest, he can still be guaranteed for the rest of his life.
Prosperity and wealth.
After all, the empire would not openly execute a high-ranking general like the former legion commander without any crime.
And, no matter what, from the bottom of everyone's heart, it is best to solve the problem of the Northwest Army peacefully without fighting or killing people. Especially the regent, he knows very well what he will face in the future.
As for the army, there is no doubt that it is good for the empire.
Therefore, even the regent was shaken and immediately issued an order to the armies on the northwest front.
"Stand where you are."
"Stand where you are?" Du Wei cursed after receiving the order. Then he tore up the order with disdain.
Old Robschel is old Yan who is dizzy. Prince Chen, are you also dizzy? Who is Lu Gao? How could he give up so easily?
Hum, Lu Gao, Lu Gao, you can deceive others, but you can't deceive me, Du Wei!
When Du Wei received the order, he had already left Loulan City and arrived at the military camp located on the border of Desa Province. There were 20,000 Tulip Family troops and 50,000 Luolin Family private troops stationed here.
"What do you think?" Du Wei glanced at Phillip.
"The people in the imperial capital have been fooled." Philip, who is worthy of being a student of Lan Hai, immediately said: "Now I just hope that the direction Lu Gao chooses to attack is us! At this time, he actually ordered the army to stand by... If the Northwest Army suddenly breaks out at this time
If we attack, I'm afraid those armies will suffer."
"Send a message to Governor Bohan immediately!" Du Wei sighed and looked at the sky: "I hope it's not too late."
"I just hope that Lu Gao will choose our attack direction." Philip also looked worried.
The nine hundred and sixty-fourth year of the Empire, February 2nd.
This day is firmly remembered in history because this day was given a name.
"The Day the Civil War Began."
News came back that Lu Gao and his party, who were going to the imperial capital to report on their duties, had boarded the boat at the upstream pier of the Lancang Canal two days ago and headed south along the river. Many people breathed a sigh of relief... It seemed that there was no need to fight.
.
Even Governor Bohan, who had been paying close attention to the itinerary of Lu Gao and his party, General Andre, commander of the second division of the Northern Storm Legion, and the division general transferred from the Royal Guards all breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Gao really went to the imperial capital.
At the same time, a division of the Northwest Army that had already headed north, as well as a large number of advance baggage troops, were strictly in accordance with the military orders under the supervision of the Second Division of the Storm Legion led by General Andre of the Storm Legion.
The marching route was walked slowly, without any deviation.
But soon, the experienced Andre discovered something slightly wrong.
After all, he was an outstanding general in the Storm Legion. After Andre learned that the Northwest Army had accepted the order to go north, he sent more than 20 groups of 100-man scout cavalry to closely monitor the first army going north, and at the same time ordered his soldiers
Be prepared.
But as time went by, Andre became more and more suspicious. He even risked causing disputes and sent two cavalry teams to stop the Northwest Army heading north and asked to inspect the opponent's queue.
and baggage trains.
This kind of request would be excessive in ordinary times. But the Northwest Army actually agreed. And after the search, there was no problem at all.
The baggage trains were filled with grain, grass, weapons, ordnance, and various supplies... These things were not fake.
It seems that Lu Gao really decided to move the Northwest Army's family assets to the north.
What really made Andre suspicious was the commander of the army heading north!
Andre was very suspicious. After all, the Northwest Army was the main army of the empire. It was said that its combat effectiveness was quite good. Lu Gao also had many strong generals under his command. But this general, the division commander of the northward division, turned out to be a wretched person.
The fat man!
The fat man's name was Tatodoro. When the people sent by Andre came back, they reported that the fat man was a philistine, greedy and lustful.
Andre immediately knew something was wrong!
The army set off. The first army at the front was the vanguard of the front line. Any commander-in-chief would send his most trusted generals to take on this task. But this fat man named Tatolo definitely didn't look like that.
An excellent soldier!
Although Lu Gao was rebellious, Andre couldn't help but admit that Lu Gao should be an excellent military commander, but he sent such a trash-like guy to the front line...
Andre immediately made what was later considered a wise decision!
"The whole army sets out to stop them!!"
The 20,000 elite cavalrymen of the Storm Legion were all elite cavalry drawn from the Storm Legion, and they were also Andre's old subordinates. The 20,000 elite cavalry set out. They soon caught up with this army one day later and blocked them.
Outside a city.
Then, Andre immediately made a decision, prepared the entire army for battle, and at the same time sent people to send orders to the other party. He ordered the other party's northwest army to immediately put down their weapons and accept interrogation.
When he made this decision, Andre was already ready for war. But what surprised him was that the opponent's general, Tatara, who led the army, accepted his decision without even thinking about it for a quarter of a second.
“Inappropriate” requests.
Soon, the 20,000 northwest troops laid down their weapons, and Andre "captured" Tatara and his men without any effort. Then after interrogating the poor fat man, Andre immediately came out
Covered in cold sweat!
Fooled!!!
This Tatara is indeed a general, but he is just a general responsible for logistics ordnance! And this "vanguard unit" heading north is not the main division of the Northwest Army at all, but a logistics division! A group of reserve troops
Let’s look at the miscellaneous soldiers in the logistics department of the army! And the number is simply less than one division!!
When he discovered the truth, Andre sweated on his forehead because the other party had successfully held back his elite cavalry division with such a miscellaneous army and wasted several days of his time!
!
"Quick! Send the message out immediately! Quick!!"
Andre ordered that 3,000 men be left to guard these prisoners of war, and the other cavalrymen immediately mounted their horses. He ordered that no rest be allowed along the way, and that they march rapidly to the Watt Fortress of the Northwest Army.
However, there was a question lingering in his mind.
Is it still too late?
Just when Andre was breaking out in a cold sweat, Bohan, the governor of Nulin Province, was already sweating profusely!!
One day!
Last night, he received news that shocked him! The Northwest Army rebelled!
Then 10,000 elite Northwest Army cavalry suddenly moved south. Bohan's defense line, which he had managed for many years, was almost broken through in one encounter!
These sturdy northwest troops broke through the obstruction of an infantry division under Bohan, but did not stop at all. Instead, they quickly marched towards the capital of Nulin Province. One day later, the troops were already in Bohan's camp.
Under the Governor's nose!
Helpless, Bohan sent a message asking for help.
He was very angry that an infantry division originally lying on the front line was broken through so easily, but his men who escaped back felt aggrieved.
Because the order they received was to "stand on standby". Faced with the sudden attack of the Northwest Army's cavalry, they were caught off guard.
Moreover, when the Northwest Army rushed over, they did not fight too much with Bohan's troops. They seemed to not want to fight at all. Instead, they directly used the mobility advantage of the cavalry to concentrate on breaking through the defense line. Then they went south directly.
The target is the capital of Nulin Province.
Bohan looked at the 10,000 northwest cavalry under the city, and after sending out a signal for help, he suddenly felt a thrill in his heart!
Then he immediately ordered the city gates to be opened and sent out his own army to fight the opponent. After the battle, the army that Bohan had been running for many years finally did not embarrass him. His most elite army fought evenly with the opponent, and the bloody battle lasted for a long time.
After that, the northwest army suddenly gave up the battle and then retreated.
After counting the results of the battle, the losses of both sides were roughly equal. Bohan suffered a little bit, but the proportion was within an acceptable range.
But the opponent's remaining cavalry actually made an almost ridiculous move!
They gave up their attempt to attack the capital of Nulin Province and actually continued all the way south!!
Bohan ordered all his cavalry to pursue them all the way, and they stayed behind the opponent. The two sides fought and fled for two full days. This northwest army was very tenacious. Although they suffered huge losses, they kept fighting.
In the end, only 3,000 people were left. By this time, two days had passed!
Then, a signal from Bohan for help was received. A division of the Royal Guards arrived quickly.
Both sides worked together to finally surround the cavalry...
Seeing victory in sight, Bohan was not happy at all.
Because he understood that he had been fooled!!
Lu Gao used 10,000 logistics troops to pretend to be the main battle division. He also used a large amount of heavy equipment as bait to hold back Andre of the Storm Legion. He also sent 10,000 death cavalry to pretend to attack Bohan, and
Bohan, who lacked military experience, sent a signal for help. As a result, these 10,000 cavalry were able to hold back Bohan's army and the Royal Guards.
So, where is the real main force of the Northwest Army?!
A total of 70,000 cavalry are crisscrossing the wilderness. What a spectacular scene it is!
The dark cavalry was like dark clouds, covering the sky and the sun! The sound of the horse's hooves was also like the waves on the sea!
Under the black flag of the Northwest Army hanging high, Lu Gao was wearing a full set of armor and sitting on a horse!
He made this plan to escape, but he actually took a lot of risks and suffered a lot of losses!
After all, in order to deceive Andre of the Storm Legion, the baggage convoys he sent were genuine. The ordnance, food, grass and supplies were all his wealth accumulated over the years. But Lu Gao knew that if things were lost, they could be earned again.
.But the chance of victory is only once!
As for the "Lu Gao" who went to the imperial capital, he was just a substitute for him.
People in the imperial capital still don't want to fight, huh... they want a peaceful solution. How can such a cheap thing be possible?
His real main direction of attack is Du Wei!
Looking at the torrent of steel under his command, Lu Gao was full of confidence. Even if Du Wei was running a business, he relied on the army to fight the war! Huh, that guy, he knows some bullshit military strategy. How can the Tulip family's army be as elite as mine on the ground?
Northwest Army!
Even if Longbottom under him is still a figure, other than that, there is no one under Du Wei who knows how to fight!
"Give me the order to go down! Over the hillside ahead is Du Wei's fortress! Don't stop, the main army rushes over in one go, and don't get entangled with the opponent. If Du Wei sends people out to stop them, let the reserves go to fight! We are now
It’s a race against time! Get past this guy’s defense!”
Lu Gao had other plans in mind that he had not mentioned.
Now the Storm Legion has been deceived by themselves into the north, which is 1,400 miles away from here. And that fool Bohan is an amateur at fighting. He has been tricked into the south by his own feint troops, which is a thousand miles away from here!
!
As long as you concentrate your strength, break through Du Wei's defense line, and go all the way west, you can break out of the enemy's siege! From now on, the sea and the sky will be brighter! The tiger returns to the mountain!!
Moreover, in addition to these 70,000 cavalry, Lu Gao was followed by two divisions of more than 40,000 elite infantrymen. Their mission...
"Anything they want is to lead to death." Lu Gao sighed inwardly.
His plan was to rush directly through Du Wei's military fortress without stopping or entangled with Du Wei. Then, the infantry from behind would catch up and attack the military fortress with all their strength.
It's good to capture it, then you can immediately occupy this military fortress as your own back-breaking barrier. When the Storm Legion, Bohan and Wang Cheng's Guardsmen find out that they have been deceived and chase them, the back-breaking army here can also hold them back for a while.
In a short time, your own cavalry can sweep through the Desa province like a whirlwind, and then...enter the northwest grasslands!
That is Lu Gao's final destination.
The Duanhou area is also composed of elite heavy armored infantry from the Northwest Army. And the person responsible for commanding this Duanhou army is Lu Gao's most trusted Guhuataro!
Thousands of horses galloping!
After crossing the last hillside, not far away, a military fortress was right under your nose! Lu Gao's horse stood on the hillside, pointed at the fortress in the distance, and issued an order.
"Rush over!!"
Black armor, black flags, and tens of thousands of cavalry were charging like a wave sweeping towards the fortress in the distance.
On top of the fortress wall, Du Wei stood there, looking at the sweeping craze in the distance, as if he was very relaxed, and sighed: "What a spectacular scene."
The tulip flag at the top of the city has been raised. On the city wall, archers and soldiers are ready.
But Du Wei shook his head: "No need, Lu Gao didn't want to attack the city immediately... Huh, he is busy rushing now. How can he have time to fight with me?"
Sure enough, when the wave of tens of thousands of cavalry was still a thousand meters away from the city wall, the well-trained Northwest Iron Cavalry automatically separated the queue, split the huge wave into two, and just passed around Du Wei's city wall on both sides.
They stayed far away, even outside the range of the archers!
Du Wei did not let the archers waste arrows. He did not even order the army to go out of the city to intercept.
After a full meal, all the huge cavalry regiments crossed their city wall. Du Wei even saw from a distance among the northwest army's lineup. Under a huge black flag, a man wearing a
The general in black armor was flying past under the protection of everyone. It must be Lu Gao.
"He was running in such a hurry." Du Wei smiled: "But when his cavalry runs to the front and sees the gift I gave him, he will be very surprised."
Du Wei then turned around and gave orders to his subordinates behind him.
"Order that all infantry divisions guarding the city go up to the city wall to prepare for battle, and then order Longbottom's cavalry division to prepare and open the city gates in half an hour to set out to pursue..." Du Wei took a deep breath and looked evil.
Smile: "The order is given. The whole army of the Sky Knights is ready to take off... Tell Sieg that this is his first battle. Fight beautifully!"
After running for about a quarter of an hour, Lu Gao was surprised that that bastard Du Wei didn't run out of the city to intercept him! Is he timid and afraid of fighting? Or after weighing the comparison of military strength between the two sides, he felt that there was no chance of winning.
, simply give up?
But Lu Gao would not accept Du Wei's favor! He had already thought that once he broke through Du Wei's defense line and entered the Dessa Province, his cavalry would burn, kill and loot all the way!
After all, although the cavalry is highly mobile, it cannot carry too much food, grass, and supplies! If you want to rush through the Desa Province and enter the grassland as quickly as possible, you must "supply on the spot."
This is the only way.
"Du Wei, I will definitely 'thank you' for letting you go!!" Lu Gao smiled ferociously on the horse, but then he immediately saw a scene that made him angry!
The cavalry brigade in front suddenly slowed down, and then the galloping cavalry regiment gradually slowed down, and finally they were crowded together, and then they all stopped.
"What's going on!!" Lu Gao roared angrily.
Some people actually disobeyed their orders! Don’t these bastards know that time is the most precious thing now!!
"Report to the commander... You, you... you'd better come to the front and have a look!!" A general hurried from the front with a panic look on his face.
Lu Gao's face was gloomy. He resisted the urge to whip this guy and immediately ordered the cavalry in front to separate. He led his men and rushed all the way to the front.
Then, Lu Gao saw the "surprise" Du Wei gave him.
When Lu Gao saw the scene in front of him, his first reaction was to take a deep breath!
God...what, what is this?!
There is an open wilderness in front of you. A large stretch of trenches that stretches for hundreds of meters is right in front of you! Each trench is two meters wide and more than a hundred meters long, and it stretches for hundreds of meters in front of you.
I don’t know how many trenches there are!
A thousand?
Two thousand?
Damn it! Damn it!
Moreover, this trench covers a large area. It extends all the way on both sides, and it is actually a horseshoe-shaped arc! A "U" shaped terrain. In front and on both sides, there are trenches hundreds of meters away! They are densely packed!
How can the cavalry rush over?
What made Lu Gao even more desperate was that if it were just these trenches, forget it. Even if he lost some soldiers and horses, he could barely fill up a place and rush through.
But the problem is, the dense and endless trench position in front of us is also covered with endless weird things.
On that long iron shelf, there are actually countless thin iron wire bars with sharp barbs and edges...
Yes, these things are the most common things in some war movies in Du Wei's previous life.
Barbed wire!
These barbed wire fences are densely packed and intertwined, hundreds of meters wide and several kilometers long! You can't even see the ends on either side.
Rush? You can't rush through at all!
Send someone to clear the way?
Hell...how to open it? It may not be difficult to fill in the trench. But how to remove these barbed wire fences?
The most annoying thing is...
This Du Wei, he obviously has the ability to create such a "trap", why doesn't he do it in front of the fortress wall?
In all kinds of wars since ancient times, where has the "trench" been placed behind one's own rear?!
Lu Gao made a calculation in his mind in a moment. If he wanted to clear out this large area of weird "iron guys" and clear a path, he would probably have to spend a whole day!!
"Turn around! Find a way out from both sides!" Lu Gao cursed angrily: "That bastard Du Wei. He can't make the entire Dessa Province look like this!!"
But just as he gave the order to turn around, he heard a message from the messenger behind him.
"Commander, the cavalry of the Tulip Family are catching up from behind!"
This isn't the only bad news.
Suddenly, a soldier exclaimed and pointed at the sky: "Look! What are those!!"
Above the sky, from the direction of Du Wei's military fortress at the back, there was a dense mass of things, half of which were dark clouds. They were flying towards here very quickly!
When we got closer, we could see clearly what kind of dark clouds there were. They were hundreds or even thousands of hot air balloons!
There were so many of them, there were probably thousands of them! They came so densely that even the sun in the sky was blocked for a while!!
"First aerial bombing strikes, and then ground troops move in to mop up..." Du Wei stood on the city wall, smiling and saying to himself: "I follow the US military's combat method. Who said trenches can't be placed at the rear?"
When Lu Gao let out his first angry roar, the first wave of the hot air balloon brigade had already reached the heads of the Northwest Army cavalry.
Then, after a whistling sound, under the first wave of hot air balloons, dense black dots fell from the sky...
When they saw those things clearly, the cavalry of the Northwest Army identified those black things that looked like iron cans. But soon, they knew that these were murder weapons!
A black jar fell into the dense array of cavalry, and the first wave of explosive fire swallowed up hundreds of cavalry in an instant!
Then under the light of the fire, in the exploding cupping pot and in Du Wei's improved "scatter bomb", countless tiny pieces of iron, nails, etc.... Under the power of the explosion, they splashed out in all directions, killing people.
The strength has more than doubled!
As the hot air balloons all over the sky dropped countless iron cans, these dense black spots fell from the sky, just like the call of death...
Raging explosions and flames rang out from all directions, and among the cavalry of the Northwest Army who were squeezed together, screams and exclamations broke out one after another. At this moment, they could not even escape!
There are stretches of trenches and barbed wire in front and on both sides!
Their only direction is to retreat!
"Retreat! Retreat! The rear team becomes the front team! The whole army retreats!!!" Lu Gao's roaring voice sounded, and the generals of the Northwest Army desperately tried to restrain the soldiers.
Soldiers may be elite, brave, and defiant...
But unfortunately, their war horses are not psychic creatures.
Amidst the explosions, fire, air waves, and smoke, many war horses immediately lost control and became frantic. The soldiers could not control the horses, and many people even squeezed and collided with each other in hundreds.
And this squeezed array doubles the effect of bombing!
If the last time under Gilliat City, the Decepticon team of only thirty people only caused some harassment to the prairie people,
So today, what a thousand hot air balloons brought... is a real bombing!
The battlefield has become a mess. In the firelight, there is thick smoke everywhere. The corpses of dead cavalry and war horses also block the retreat of the large cavalry. At this time, people are crowded and horses collide with each other, making the elite
The cavalry of the Northwest Army was in a state of complete chaos. Only a small number of cavalry in the rear group were able to turn around and flee quickly. Most of them even lost their way in the thick smoke and fire, wandering around like headless flies.
The man fell on his back!
And just after the first wave of bombings ended, the hot air balloons in the sky had already flown away far away. At this time, the sound of sizzling sound breaking through the air was heard.
In the distance, hundreds of guys on broomsticks shot over from the air quickly!
These guys were riding broomsticks at extremely fast speeds! Moreover, they quickly passed over the heads of the chaotic Northwest Army. The people sitting on the broomsticks were holding the broomstick in one hand and holding a short crossbow in the other hand, and arrows were flying around as much as they wanted.
Shooting the chaotic cavalry!
The Decepticon team finally appears!
Moreover, they seemed to be very good at shooting. Several old Decepticon elites headed by Siege specifically targeted and shot the armored generals in the Northwest Army!
Many officers were shot to death by the flying Decepticon squads before they had time to react, and the cavalry who lost their officers fell into even more chaos!
At this moment, Lu Gao finally took action. He roared, jumped up from his horse, and pulled out his long sword in mid-air. Suddenly he rushed into the sky and faced a hot air balloon in the distance.
, and quickly struck out with a sword!
The hot air balloon was split into two in a brilliant blade of light, and then exploded and exploded into pieces in the air.
Lu Gao's heart was bleeding and he was almost crazy. He spotted the hot air balloon group not far away and was about to rush over to fight for his life. At this time, he heard a cold voice from far behind him shouting: "Lu Gao of the Northwest Army? Or should we?"
