Wei Dakui said no more and immediately issued an order. Gather all the remaining crossbow arrows and equip them for the three hundred cavalry. In the battle to defend the city, the three hundred cavalry had no room for use and could only shoot arrows and smash stones.
Use it as an ordinary soldier. At this moment, I finally have the opportunity to attack, but I am taking such a huge risk. I am really looking forward to it but also nervous.
After a while, the three hundred riders were ready behind the city gate. The city gate opened gently, the drawbridge was lowered, and the three hundred riders walked out of the city gate at an extremely slow speed. Lin Jue waved his hand at the bottom of the city, and the drawbridge was quickly pulled up, and the city gate
It quickly closed.
On the east city wall, when they heard the news that Lord Lin was leading 300 cavalry to attack the enemy camp, the defenders at the top of the city felt incredible at first, but soon they were inspired by Lord Lin's spirit of not fearing death. They stood on the top of the city one after another.
Staring at the camp of the bandits down the slope, paying close attention to this seemingly suicidal behavior.
Under the cover of the mist, more than three hundred cavalrymen slowly approached the enemy camp through the mess on the ground, and then came closer.
All the soldiers and people at the top of the city held their breath and did not dare to make any noise. For fear that they would make a noise and alert the bandits in the camp down the slope. Finally, Lin Jue led more than 300 riders to the slope.
Their backs were blurred and could not be seen clearly. Everyone could only stretch their necks and listen to the noise, waiting for the cry to launch the attack.
Lin Jue rode his horse and stood on a slope. Beneath the slope was a camp where the bandits gathered. Although he couldn't see clearly what was going on in the camp, Lin Jue saw countless bonfires flickering in the mist and smelled the smell of rice.
Lin Jue suddenly understood the scent. It turned out that the opponent had withdrawn to eat and drink enough, and then take the city in one fell swoop. They were very comfortable and did not think they would be attacked at all. There were not even sentries arranged on the slope.
.
Lin Jue had a sneer on his face, reined in his horse, and slowly raised his right hand.
There was no shouting, no heart-rending roar, Lin Jue just waved his palm gently in the air. The next moment, more than 300 cavalrymen began to gallop down. Like lions lurking in the grass,
Before the prey is discovered, it will never make a sound. It will just pounce on it silently.
The cavalry galloped down the slope, getting faster and faster. The vibration of the horses' hooves also broke the silence before dawn. In order to facilitate the attack, the bandits also spent special efforts to fill in the potholes on the slope.
They probably never expected that the flat slope they had built leading to the camp would allow the cavalry to gallop with all their strength. When the bandits heard the sound of horse hooves, they stood up and looked around in surprise.
Three hundred cavalry broke through the fog and came to them.
A group of bandits were sitting on the ground. The continuous attacks made them exhausted. Seeing that several rounds of attacks failed to achieve any results, and each time they were only a little short of capturing the city wall. Although Meng Xiang was frustrated, he also saw victory.
At the dawn of dawn, he decided to let everyone have a good meal and take a short rest. After dawn, he would launch a fatal all-out attack. He believed that this time he would be able to achieve success in one fell swoop.
The religious bandits then sat around on the ground, made a stove with earth, and made a fire to make food. They did not even send out sentries to monitor the surrounding activities. On the one hand, they did not have this common sense, and on the other hand, they did not think that the other party would leave the city at all.
Attack the camp. Unless the other party is crazy, how dare they do this. Therefore, when the cavalry appeared in the fog, most of the religious bandits stood there with astonishment on their faces, not even knowing what happened.
The sound of the crossbow arrows sounded in the air, like the deep sound of a poisonous bee flapping its wings. Just hearing the sound made people shudder. The rain of arrows hit the group of bandits gathered together, making a popping sound that penetrated the flesh and blood.
When the horses' hooves stepped on the embers of the flames and kicked up the smoke of the soil and flew past, beside and behind them were the figures of the bandits, who were struck by arrows and screamed repeatedly.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" A voice that changed its voice with fear rang in the dawn air. Hearing the words, all the cult bandits stood up in a hurry and hurriedly looked for weapons. The leaders yelled and asked their subordinates to gather their hands. No.
The few men held weapons, but they didn't know where the enemy was, so they looked around blankly.
"Kill!" Lin Jue finally shouted. He and Bai Bing rushed to the front, flanked by fifty cavalrymen holding long swords. Their mission was to carve out a passage to ensure the smooth charge of the cavalry from behind.
Bai Bing had already raised the sword in the flute, and in the cold light, he slashed the cult bandit in front of the horse's head with blood splashing everywhere. Lin Jue followed Bai Bing closely with a long knife, but he did not use the tortoise on his waist.
Box, he didn't want to expose his own strength, just following Bai Bing's side was enough to ensure his own safety, and he could also use the rapid charge of the horses to kill the enemy. The more than two hundred cavalry behind him only used crossbows to kill this one.
The 300-man cavalry team cooperated tacitly, like an extremely sharp blade, cutting into the bandit camp without any hindrance. It penetrated from west to east.
On one side of the camp, Meng Xiang was discussing with several sub-altar masters and servants how to attack next. They agreed to prepare some rattan armor to withstand falling rocks and bows and arrows. The sub-altar master also proposed to cut some firewood and ride on the fierce attack.
At that time, people gathered at the city gate and burned the city gate. Meng Xiang thought these suggestions were good.
But the sudden sound of the camp attack alarm interrupted their discussion. Meng Xiang grabbed a long knife and rushed over with his men. They saw the crossbow arrows flying by and the church members falling down like mowing grass. They were stunned in shock.
"What's going on?" Meng Xiang shouted while grabbing a member of the congregation who was running away in a hurry.
"There are so many cavalry, so many cavalry. Run away quickly," the member of the congregation shouted.
"Damn it, where did you get so many cavalry? Damn it for deceiving the military's morale!" Meng Xiang killed him with a knife, but his heart was pounding. The appearance of the cavalry was something he didn't expect. Could it be that reinforcements had arrived? But soon,
The news from the front refuted this terrifying speculation.
"Teacher Meng, hundreds of cavalry rushed into our camp. They were killing people everywhere. Our followers suffered heavy casualties." A servant of the teaching rushed from the front to report.
"Only a few hundred cavalry? Those are not reinforcements, they must be soldiers and horses in the city. They are treating us as human beings. Even a few hundred cavalry dare to rush into the camp. Send a signal and surround and annihilate us." Meng Xiang
Swearing and yelling.
Peng Peng! Fireworks soared into the sky. The Zuojin congregants who were originally unaware of the situation immediately began to organize when they saw the signal. Countless congregants began to surround the center, and more than 2,000 congregants on the east side blocked them. From behind, Meng Xiang led 2,000 congregants.
The elites arrived one after another. Their intention was very clear, which was to block the three hundred cavalry in the crowd, surround them and annihilate them.
The charge of the cavalry is certainly unstoppable. Speed, maneuverability and impact are the three magic weapons that make the cavalry better than ordinary arms. It is said that one cavalry is as powerful as ten, and that is when they charge into the formation and roar back and forth. Once they are entangled, they cannot give full play to their advantages.
Then there will be big trouble. There are many ways to deal with the cavalry, such as digging pits, tripping horse ropes, resisting the horse formation, spear formation, bow and arrow attack, fortification walls, etc. All of them are actually designed to prevent the cavalry from exerting their speed and impact.
The advantage. Or to offset the power of its charge, and kill it before it gets close to the formation. But the bandits did not have the ability to use all these methods, so they used the most primitive method.
, that is to entangle the cavalry with a sea of people, and use several times more people to slow down the cavalry, so that the ants can eat the elephant and eat the opponent alive.
This is the stupidest way, but at this moment, it is also the only way and the feasible way. The religious bandits are swarming from all directions. Although the three hundred cavalry shot countless people along the way, they were gradually surrounded by them in the end. Those who opened the way ahead
Lin Jue Baibing and the fifty cavalrymen had already felt the pressure. There were more and more enemies in front of the horse's head, and they had to slash with their swords to kill the bleeding path, but the speed of clearing them was far from enough. The whole team had to slow down.
In front of them, more black bandits were rushing towards them, shouting. Arrows, stones, spears and other throwing objects were also whizzing in their ears.
"Husband, there is no way to go on like this. We will be held back by them. If we are held back, it will be over." Bai Bing saw that the situation was not good, and he kept talking without stopping with the green flute blade in his hand. A cold light flashed, and a teacher
The bandits immediately settled the account.
Lin Jue frowned and looked at the situation. He also knew that being delayed would never end well. His goal was not to fight the enemy fiercely, but to rush through without stopping.
"Turn left and go northeast. That's where the weakest point is." Lin Jue shouted.
"Follow your orders!" dozens of cavalrymen rushing forward shouted in unison. The cavalry team made a sharp turn, getting rid of thousands of religious bandits in front of them before they blocked them, and rushed out in the northeast direction.
"Send the order, Altar Master Li Yunqing immediately leads people to block it, and no one is allowed to escape. Otherwise, I will ask him to see the King of Hell." Meng Xiang from behind saw this situation and shouted loudly.
Boom! A green firework soared into the sky, which was an order specifically issued to the followers led by Li Yunqing of the Xucheng Branch Altar. Li Yunqing had offended Meng Xiang because of his words, and was sent to lead the first batch of troops to attack the city. His subordinates, the Branch Altar Cult,
There were heavy casualties. In order to appease him, Meng Xiang asked him to lead his soldiers and horses in the northeast direction behind him to rest. In the previous siege battle, he did not let him lead the people to attack the city, because Li Yunqing only had a few men left.
There were 1,300 followers. Meng Xiang didn't want Li Yunqing to feel dissatisfied. But at this moment, the other party was rushing out towards the northeast, so Li Yunqing had to hold them back.
When the fireworks started to rise, Li Yunqing immediately ordered his followers to form formations to attack. Li Yunqing was a wise man, and he would not be so stupid as to let his men rush towards the horse's head. He knew that the cavalry was not easy to mess with. There was chaos that day.
At Songgang, Li Yunqing patiently waited for the opportunity and annihilated all five hundred forbidden troops. After that battle, Li Yunqing became famous among the Qing Sect. Although he was still the leader of the Xucheng Branch Altar, he has already
He is the Heavenly Dragon Protector, and is one of the top ten Heavenly Dragon Protectors. Of course, in front of Meng Xiang, he is nothing. Meng Xiang is Hai Dongqing's direct confidant, and he cannot afford to offend him.
"Tear down the cart as a barrier, and the archers are ready to fire arrows. The rest of the people will throw rocks and sticks and smash whatever they can. Mr. Xu, please immediately bring over the thorns that we cut down when we camped. Lay them on the ground.
Ahead." Li Yunqing issued orders in a flurry of voices.
Large carts were overturned and fell to the ground. They were pushed by the army to transport food and supplies. At this moment, they were the best barrier. And it did not require any effort. The teacher's servant Xu Lao Lao led dozens of people to bring large bundles, chop them and throw them away.
Thorns and thorns were piled randomly on the ground. After finishing all this, the three hundred cavalry of the Imperial Army had already galloped over.
