362 Rivalry in the West

The danger of the thief came so quickly, like a sharp cold blade stabbing out of the void, "Four severed the throats that were still screaming,

The six thousand elite Samor Guards cavalry was this sudden cold blade, and the eight thousand dragonless mercenaries were completely slaughtered, and groups of rushing war horses roared past them, and the cold war knives slashed down with blood and cold light.

The horses roared, the powerful impact force smashed the enemy in front of them to pieces, the main force of the Samor cavalry that rushed down from the heights, rolled up the dust in the sky, and the Samar cavalry hurricanes interspersed back and forth, the Hutak army cried and shouted for their mothers, the mercenaries were cut into more than a dozen pieces, and the routed army ran like a rolling snowball, driven by the war horses

The galloping war horse carried a high-speed moving blade, and the stumps of human heads fell like raindrops in its pass, bright red blood splattered out from the fractures of the human body, the rudimentary leather armor was lightly cut like pieces of paper, and the wooden shield was shattered into several pieces in the powerful slash

This slaughter lasted for an afternoon, and the fully dispersed Hutak army had no chance to resist at all, and in front of the Samar cavalry rushing back and forth, thousands of corpses were piled up like weeds, falling in pieces like harvested straw, and a ray of sunset shone in from the corner between the two hills, imprinting and dyeing on the bright red land here, the bright red people, the bright red earth, and even the sky was blood-red. ()

"Grand Duke, the enemy has been completely annihilated by us!" Hu Keqili, who was covered in blood, ran over with the head of the enemy general, and said with a little disdain in his expression, "These guys are too incompetent! Even the army of the Tyre family is higher than them! To deal with such an army, only 2,000 cavalry is enough! No! 500 people, just give me 500 men is enough" Hu Keqili was very excited, and stretched out two fingers with a disdainful expression

"Don't be too careless!" The fat man glared at him sternly, and rebuked him in a sullen voice: "After all, this is the west, and we can't compare to the natives of the west in terms of terrain and adaptability! We can't underestimate all the westerners because of a victory, and you are now a famous general of my Samore army! I don't want to ransom your body from the enemy that day."

"The Ecumenical Church is. It's me who was too careless!" Hu Keqili hurriedly said,

The fat man nodded and said, "Although the western mercenaries are very different from our army in terms of equipment and suzhì, they are locals who are familiar with the terrain, and in this area with complex terrain, they may be completely defeated in an unprepared head-on conflict, but once they are prepared, they will become a fierce opponent of our Samor."

The fat man's face was slightly gloomy, he sighed, and continued, "After this battle, our army must have a tendency to despise the opponent, this is a taboo in the army, you, as the commander of the Guards Legion, should pay attention to this issue, this is the first battle of my Falcon Principality, and I will never allow defeat!"

"Yes, yes, the subordinates almost made a mistake in a moment of excitement!" Hukochi broke out in a cold sweat, since the Battle of Tyr, the fat man hadn't scolded himself like this for a long time,

The name of "dog-faced fat man" has spread all over the general Samor's class, and in front of the strict governor, any Samor's general, even the three army commanders with outstanding merits, will never dare to take a breath, and the governor will never be soft in the reorganization of the army, and even ruthless and terrifying.

"The most important thing in war is the warplane! There is a great opportunity in front of us now" The fat man waved his hand at him, pointed to the Jones officer beside him, and said, "This is the leader of the Nabryan squadron led by Jones! He has entered the west many times, he is our guide for this raid on Hutalenku, you immediately order the army to rest and recuperate, and set off after dark! We will take advantage of the victory to take the old nest of the Hutak family."

The melodious trumpet sounded in the sunset, the Samar Guards cavalry dismounted and rested, and fought for an afternoon, even the men and horses seemed to be washed with sweat, and the arm wielding the war knife was already slightly sore, after the sky fell into the night, the warm temperature during the day quickly dropped, and the cold wind blew on the fat man's face, and there was a car from the entrance of the hill to the castle of Hutarens,

In the second half of the night, by the bright moonlight, the dark shadow of Hutalenku Castle was faintly visible in the distance, and the huge black shadow was like a giant beast entrenched on the side of the road.

"Stop!" the fat man waved his hand to the Samar Guards behind him, and restrained his horse on a higher hill.

"My lord, it's the main fort of the Tucker family," Nabryan, the guide, pointed to the castle road in the distance. I went inside as a family messenger the year before last, this castle is not big, and the defense is average, but there are two large arrow towers on the left side, which can not only attack the enemy outside the city wall, but also control the city wall, on the periphery of the castle, there are three small guard towers, control the trade road outside the castle, the drawbridge of the moat is laid down on weekdays, and it will only rise when the alarm on the periphery is heard, the moat is eight meters wide, and only by solving the outer guard towers can you rush up the suspension bridge at the speed of cavalry, ",

"That's a problem!" the fat man listened carefully to Nabrien's explanation, nodded slightly, and his fierce gaze was like a sharp blade, through the faint night mist, looking at Hutalenku Castle,

The dark shadow of the old Yin Zhen Wu Gao Shi is particularly eye-catching. It should be the large arrow tower of Nabryn, from the point of view of the construction position, it is indeed relatively outward, from the middle of a stone city wall, the spire-like roof with the unique style of the west,

The lights on the city wall are very dim, and you can vaguely see a few black dots walking back and forth.

The fat man looked at the castle in the distance, was silent for a while, and suddenly turned around and ordered one of the longbow guards behind him, "Tajiktetu!

Then he pointed to a dense forest about fifty meters from the castle, and said to Hukoch: "Order the whole army to sneak and enter the woods with sticks, and no one is allowed to make a business, and anyone who dares to talk and make a noise in private!"

Horses' hooves trampled the hard ground beneath their feet, and six thousand Samorian cavalry marched along the dense forest. Divided into ten teams to sneak, the bright moonlight shone down from the gaps in the leaves overhead, and white points of light scattered on the fat man's body,

The fat man waved his hand, and the sound of horses' hooves behind him quickly stopped, and the main hall of the castle was brightly lit, and a noisy noise was mixed with a trace of melodious and beautiful music drifting in the wind, and it seemed that it was unprepared, and it was even holding a celebration banquet for the imminent occupation of Jones's territory,

The drawbridge lies quietly on the moat, and there are only a few guards at the city gate

Human legs can't outrun horse legs, this is what the fat man has calculated a long time ago, and the soldiers are fast!

It took at least ten hours to walk from Hutalenku to Jones Territory, and twenty hours to go back and forth, and Hutak's army only set out from the main fort in the morning and entered Jones Territory in the afternoon.

According to the calculation of time, the Hutak family should have occupied Jones's territory by now, even if the battle is unfavorable, it will be tomorrow.

would never have thought that his 8,000 troops would not only be killed on the border, but also that a large group of cavalry would attack at night.

In the cold night, white smoke erupted from the horse's mouth, and there was a faint smell of blood in the air, which was the smell of the Samar cavalry who had no time to wash their weapons.

Black armor was the best cover for the night, and groups of Samar Guards squatted beside their horses, their eyes fixed on the city wall not far away, where the air seemed oppressive and heavy, like fire

It was already the second half of the night, and the morning star in the sky was beginning to deflect, and it would be dawn in another 2 hours, which was the most sleepy time, and the sentinels could only look at the banquet in the distance.

In the cold night, the small number of sentinels crowded in the corners of the city wall, the bright and extinguished bonfires illuminated their faces that were slightly pale because of the cold, the night in the west was too cold, the cold wind whistled by, there was a posture of freezing all the qiē, the bright moonlight was sprinkled down, and every qiē seemed so cold, only the crackling sound of firewood in the fire could be heard,

The lights of a watchtower in the distance flickered suddenly. Two black dots fell from above, which did not attract the attention of the sentries on the city wall" Soon, a bright torch shook on the guard tower in the distance, drawing three circles in the air in a row, "Look! Hulunbei, that guy can't be idle! He still plays this game in the middle of the night!" A sentry crouching by the fire scolded in a low voice, putting his frozen hand on the fire

"People are signaling to their lover!" another sentry laughed, "You don't know, the daughter of the old man's family is getting along with him! Maybe the blessed Hulunbei will be the team leader! Then he can become a member of the old man's family!"

"What a lucky man!" the sentries sighed in their hearts, Master Fei Ye was the tax collector in the castle, and when he became his son-in-law, he would not have to worry about food and clothing in this life.

While the sentries were crouching by the fire and talking, a large number of black-armored cavalry rushed out of the dense woods outside the castle, and the three watchtowers guarding the road had already been occupied by the longbowmen, and a large number of cavalry rushed straight through without hindrance.

The sound of horses' hooves was like a thunderstorm before a storm, and the sentinels on the city wall looked up curiously, and saw the bright moon still hanging high in the sky, and a few piles of black clouds drifting in the air, without the slightest sign of rain

"What's going on?" a sentry withdrew his hand from the fire, and with a displeased face, he left the warm fire and walked to the battlements, leaning out half of his body as if to see the situation below, a black cloud covered the sky, as if even the moonlight in the sky was going to cover it, and then the fire on the city gate, the hideous black cavalry group broke through the sky like a demon god in the dark

"Enemy, enemy!" the sentry's eyes were bulging, and he was so frightened that he couldn't even speak

A galloping white line pierced through his throat, and the sentry's body was shocked, and his body was knocked out by the huge impact, and he fell straight in front of the other sentries.

A white arrow trembled at his throat, and his round eyes were frightened and hesitant, as if he had just seen hell
