Chapter 22: The Black Cloud of Death
Nan shan.
One of the small towns around Yumen Pass, there are more than 100 households in the town, with a population of hundreds, and it is the central location of the surrounding towns, so it is relatively prosperous.
Outside the town, there is a high mountain, the mountain name is Nanshan, located in the south of Yumen Pass, hundreds of meters high.
At this moment, Luo Cheng took Yanyun's eighteen horsemen and temporarily stationed them on Nanshan.
He was dressed in golden armor, which was completely different from the black cloud overwhelming dress of the surrounding Yanyun Eighteen Horsemen, but it didn't matter, because the Yanyun Eighteen Horsemen did not need to be led by generals, they had always fought independently.
The reason why Luo Cheng wanted to come was not to command them, but to restrict them!
The Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry trained with secret methods has many drawbacks, it is worse than the one that has really been cultivated since childhood, and the mentality is also very unstable, Luo Cheng is afraid that if the army of Lan Yuguo really comes, these guys will kill and kill and fall into the devil.
In case the time comes, it is possible for these guys to attack the camp of Lan Yuguo, they don't know what death is!
From being selected from the army, after training, they were already fearless, which could be seen from not saluting Chu Yuqing before.
The real Yanyun Eighteen Riders are not like this, and there is no limit to their lifespan, they are considered defective.
"Yan Yun'er, dismount and rest."
Luo Cheng glanced at Nanshan Town, which was not far away, turned around and said lightly, Yan Yun'er was holding the Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry Flag, did not speak, just silently turned over and dismounted.
If they weren't trained by Luo Cheng, they wouldn't have listened to Luo Cheng's orders, in fact, Luo Cheng was not restraining them with military orders now, but using his own coercion, which was gradually accumulated in training.
For these crippled Yanyun Eighteen Horsemen, they are not afraid of anything, but they only have to be suppressed by Luo Cheng, not psychological fear, but a kind of mysterious suppression, all-round and no dead ends, so that they can't make any waves in front of Luo Cheng.
Yan Yun Eighteen rode to rest, but Luo Cheng didn't, he looked at Nanshan Town all the time, with a lot of thoughts in his heart, but there was no expression on his face.
He didn't know if he was right or wrong to do this, but he knew that war was never right or wrong.
Luo Cheng is a good person.
He was able to slaughter enemy soldiers on the battlefield because they were enemies, but he never killed innocents indiscriminately, and "Cold Face and Cold Gun" was his nickname, not a portrayal of him.
After waiting for three days in Nanshan Town, Luo Cheng went to the town to buy food for Yan Yun's eighteen horses.
That's right, the general went to buy food for the soldiers, which was also a helpless move, Yan Yun's eighteen cavalry was too murderous, if he entered the town rashly, I was afraid that it would scare many people, and it would be bad if something happened.
However, they didn't wait too long, just after the morning of the third day, before noon, a rapid sound of horses' hooves came, and Luo Cheng immediately stood up.
More than ten miles outside Nanshan Town, a team of heavy cavalry from Lan Yuguo came over, there were only 100 heavy cavalry, but behind them, there were hundreds of foot soldiers, this was a 500-person raiding team, with heavy cavalry as the vanguard!
There is only one earthen wall less than a zhang high in the town, this earthen wall cannot withstand the impact of the heavy cavalry, once they rush into the town, it will immediately cause a large number of casualties, and then the soldiers of Lan Yuguo will follow and start burning and looting!
In recent years, Lan Yuguo has been doing this, and the people on the border have become accustomed to it.
They also sensed that Lan Yuguo's army was coming, but they didn't choose to leave, and the people on the border were never bloodless, because they were oppressed too hard!
At first, they would go against the grain, but later, when they couldn't live anymore, they began to resist, and after resisting, their relatives were killed, so the two sides were on the same page, and there was no way to resolve it.
In other words, there is only one way to resolve it, and that is to live or die!
Knowing that they couldn't stop it, they still gathered dozens of militiamen, and women, the elderly, and children hid in the cellars that had been prepared long ago.
Lan Yuguo Iron rode here, hundreds of catties of heavy armor hung on the war horse, and the sound of "boom" was endless, just looking at it from a distance, there was a breathtaking shock.
The militiamen clenched their weapons as if it would give them a sense of security, but they were still nervous.
But they can't retreat, because behind them is home, and they have no choice!
Originally, I thought that His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince had come down and repelled the army of Lan Yuguo once, so that the people of Xizhou would be so enthusiastic when Chu Yuqing recruited troops before, but now they are a little disappointed.
Lan Yuguo's army is here, but what about the army at Yumen Pass?
I didn't have time to think about it so much, the iron cavalry had already rushed over, and behind the iron cavalry were hundreds of Lan Yuguo's foot soldiers, there was an absolutely huge gap between the two sides in terms of equipment alone, and they were ready to die!
"Da Da Da ......"
A hurried and rapid sound of horses' hooves sounded from the side, and the militiamen turned their heads to look.
A group of eighteen black horsemen rushed quickly, lined up like a long snake outside the town wall, silver spears flashing in their hands.
Yan Yun's eighteen horsemen lined up in a line, facing the Lanyu National Iron Cavalry that was only a few hundred meters away in front of them, and everyone was as safe as a mountain!
"Back into town, don't come out, don't look!"
Before the battle began, Yan Yun'er still had a little sense, and followed Luo Cheng's order to tell these people.
The people were very puzzled and surprised, is this the army of Yumen Pass?
But......
Why only eighteen?
The army of the Lan Yu Kingdom on the opposite side was hundreds of people, and there were invincible heavy cavalry, and even the earth wall could not stop their charging heavy cavalry!
No one listened to Yan Yun'er's words, they were a little uneasy, how could they retreat?
Yan Yun'er doesn't care, being able to say such a sentence is already to give Luo Cheng face, and it is nothing for him that these guys don't retreat.
"Formation!"
Yan Yun'er gave an order, and the eight black horsemen behind him immediately rode behind him, and on the other side, the other nine black horsemen also formed a battle formation, and the two groups of people formed a mysterious balance.
"Kill!"
A low roar.
Yan Yun'er took the lead, followed by the rest of the black horsemen, and the nine people on the other side were on a par with them.
In the frightened eyes of the people of Nanshan Town, Yan Yun's eighteen horsemen and eighteen people brazenly rushed towards the Lan Yuguo Iron Cavalry, which had already started to charge!
"Whew!"
The cavalry hedged, the distance of hundreds of meters was fleeting, and in the eyes of the heavy cavalry in the front row of Lan Yu Country, it was not eighteen black horsemen rushing towards them, but a black cloud of death!
Eighteen people held silver spears, standing on the side of the war horse, the moment the two sides came into contact, eighteen silver spears were immediately inserted into the necks of eighteen Lanyu heavy cavalry, and then eighteen people moved in unison, and they all picked up, and eighteen good heads suddenly flew into the sky!
The battle is on the verge of breaking out, but it is not scorching, because it is a slaughter!
Yanyun Eighteen Horsemen all had blood-red eyes, each of them was a demon who crawled out of the blood water, ordinary people were drenched in hot blood, how could they subconsciously dodge, but they were different, even if the blood water entered their eyes, their eyes were still wide.
The eyes were full of blood red, not only blood and killing intent, but also the bloodshot in their eyes, but also the blood of the enemy, covering their pupils with a scarlet veil!
The world in front of me is blood-red!
As a result, Yan Yun's eighteen horsemen completely entered a state of madness, and no one made a sound, but their movements were extremely tacit, and the cooperation was even more wonderful, and the terrifying Lan Yuguo Iron Horse was torn to pieces like tofu in front of Yan Yun's eighteen horses!
