Chapter 354: The Decisive Moment
The thieves who rushed out of the woods howled and pounced on the leftmost army phalanx, and the leftmost officers and soldiers were ready to meet the attack at the first moment, these officers and soldiers had stopped pursuing while the thieves were still standing in the forest, and instead divided their troops to defend the side of the woods. It's just that after the demon thieves launched an attack, the demon thieves who were being pursued by the left wing of the official army stopped retreating, and it seemed that as long as the prominent demon thieves in the forest continued to attack for a while, then the fleeing demon thieves might be able to regain their morale.
Lan Ziyi held a sword in his hand, raised his sword and pointed it to the sky, and shouted at the demon thief who had just rushed out of the forest:
"Brothers, rush!"
Then the heavy cavalry of the Royal Guards sang in harmony and rushed towards the demon thief on their horses.
Zhang Yanwu, who rushed up with Lan Ziyi and other soldiers, shouted to Lan Ziyi:
"The thief just poked his head out of the jungle, it's too early to charge, we'll be tripped up by the woods!"
Lan Ziyi replied:
"Now as soon as Lei Youde in the forest rushes out, the thieves who are stuck to our butts are going to stop and counterattack, if we wait for all the demon thieves in the forest to rush out, I am afraid that the demon thieves who are separated by a few of us will all turn around and counterattack, and the demon thieves are ten times more than us, and you tell me how to rush when the time comes? What's the use of rushing? ”
Lan Ziyi said the truth, Zhang Yanwu gritted his teeth and stopped talking after hearing this, all the sergeants, including him, were speeding up the charge, and everyone was waiting for the upcoming hard impact.
The iron armor formed an impermeable iron wall under the drape of the war horse, and on top of the iron wall was the cold sword light that was neatly waved by the soldiers like a cloud and shrouded in the sky, and the soldiers trampled all the thieves who poured out of the woods to the ground with a single impact, and most of them were also stabbed on the heads by the soldiers.
The officers and infantry on the left flank had only fought with the demon thieves for only one round, and the demon thieves who threatened their flanks were drowned by the iron flow of the heavy cavalry of the Imperial Forest Army, Lan Ziyi followed the team and rushed to the second row, and he shouted loudly to the soldiers as he passed through the line of officers and infantry defending in place:
"Turn around and go back to continue the attack, don't stop, don't get out of touch with other teams, don't give the demon thief time to breathe, and don't let the demon thief find a loophole to counterattack! I'm watching you from behind! ”
When the soldiers saw the legendary Tiefu Tu crushing the demon thief with their faces, their morale was greatly boosted, although they were exhausted from slashing all the way, but they also knew that if they didn't fight to win today's battle, they would die.
Boosted by the Tiefu Tu, and received the order from Lan Ziyi to continue the attack, these infantry soldiers howled again and threw themselves into the pursuit of the fleeing demon thieves, just now those who were inspired by their own elite sneak attack, standing in place and wanting to watch the demon thieves were slashed by the spear and short knife again, and the demon thieves fell into panic again before they could stabilize the army's heart.
Lan Ziyi snuffed out all the threats of the demon thieves with a single charge, and the strength of the demon thieves attacking the infantry line of the official army was limited to the ones in front of them, and once the phalanx moved, they would no longer receive the threat of the demon thieves in the woods.
Lan Ziyi's purpose of this impact has been achieved, at least in his opinion, but soon reality slapped Lan Ziyi's face fiercely.
As Zhang Yanwu said, Lei Youde's elite armor only poked his head out of the forest, to be precise, the armor soldiers who rushed out of the forest only had a thin two or three platoon troops. These elite thieves bluffed and threw their stalls very large, looking like they wanted to cover the entire left wing of the official army from behind. But in fact, they didn't have much strength, Lan Ziyi and the Tiefutu could crush them all with only one-tenth of their charging power, and the rest of the strength made these armored cavalry rush into the forest.
The dense branches of the woods, the trunks and roots of the trees were intertwined, which were natural stumbling stumps, and the cavalry rushing into the forest before they could stop the horses. The natural hidden piles densely covered under the horse's hooves tripped the whole row of war horses, and the soldiers were thrown off their horses before they had time to react, and then the war horses that were still carrying them to charge just now pressed on the soldiers together with dozens of pounds of iron armor on the horseback, and many soldiers were killed on the spot.
Lan Ziyi and the other soldiers who rushed behind immediately began to rein in their horses and slow down after realizing that the impact was too strong, they were not tripped by the dense forest in front of them or the friendly troops who had fallen on their backs, but the demon thieves had already prepared, and suddenly saw many demon thieves appear on the treetops that were empty before, these demon thieves were armed with spears, specializing in the weakness of the ironclad sergeants. These demon thieves knew that the whole body of the Iron Floating Slaughter was wrapped in iron, and the force of rushing over was great, if they poked hard with their spears, they were afraid that they would not hurt the officials and soldiers, and the demon thieves would be torn off from the trees first. So these thieves hiding in the trees took advantage of the fact that the Iron Floaters who had not tripped and stumbled to slow down their horses and launch an attack on the knights who stopped on horseback, and these thieves specially stabbed the officials and soldiers at the eye window of the iron helmets of the officers and soldiers, and many soldiers did not expect this sudden attack to be stabbed, and then screamed and fell off the horse.
Only this one charge Lan Ziyi lost nearly half of his Tiefutu, and it can be said that his heavy cavalry has lost its combat ability.
Zhang Yanwu immediately shouted loudly after reining in the horse:
"Retreat! U-turn and retreat, quick! Get out of the fucking woods! ”
This should have been said by Lan Ziyi, but Lan Ziyi, the white-clothed ghost and demon thief, had long wanted to get rid of it, and the demon thieves had already targeted Lan Ziyi at the first time when Lan Ziyi led the charge, and Lan Ziyi was not wearing the iron urn armor of Tiefutu, but the bright light armor, and his face was all exposed outside.
However, Lan Ziyi used all his strength to rein in the horse after finding that the soldiers in front of him were tripped in pieces, and as a result, he jumped up Mahler's jump, and when the demon thief stabbed out the spear, the war horse just blocked two shots for Lan Ziyi, and the remaining shot was supposed to take Lan Ziyi's throat, but because Lan Ziyi fell weightless, he only cut the epithelium of Lan Ziyi's neck.
Lan Ziyi was overturned by the frightened war horse and fell off the horse, and as he fell, he felt the spear piercing the thick burlap scarf he had wrapped around his neck, and opened a hole in his neck. Lan Ziyi, who fell off the horse, fell to the ground heavily, and this time he fell much heavier than the previous time when he landed after hitting the shuttle dart. After landing on the ground, Lan Ziyi saw that the whole world was trembling, and he felt that his internal organs were cracked by shock, and there was a hot pain in his neck.
Lan Ziyi turned over and got up from the ground, and spit out a small mouthful of blood as soon as he used force, but this mouthful of blood was quite timely for Lan Ziyi, and after vomiting, Lan Ziyi only felt that his body was much more relaxed, and even the little stars twinkling in front of him had faded a lot.
It's not the first time Lan Ziyi has been tricked, and Lan Ziyi is no longer as concerned about these scars that didn't hurt his muscles and bones. The only injury that worries Lan Ziyi now is the opening on his neck that was opened, Lan Ziyi's eyes can't see the depth of the wound, so he can only put his hand into the burlap scarf to take a look, and when he touches it, there is a piercing pain, and when he pulls out his hand, there is a whole blood stain on the glove. However, seeing the blood, Lan Ziyi's heart was put back in his stomach, because if he injured the meridians on his neck, the bleeding would be more than a little, and Lan Ziyi heard his three brothers say that once the meridians on his neck were cut off, his whole body would be out of strength, his chest would be flooded with blood, and the injured person would suffocate to death. Now that Lan Ziyi has no symptoms, it seems that Lan Ziyi can rest assured.
The matter of the wound can reassure Lan Ziyi, but the surrounding environment does not tolerate Lan Ziyi's hesitation. After the attack of the Iron Floating Slaughter was blocked by the woods, the demon thieves in ambush in the forest immediately rushed out with spears. The sergeants who were still on horseback were each given four or five spears, and those who had so many spears stabbed by the thieves could only be stabbed off their horses.
The dismounted sergeant and the sergeant who had just tripped and were crawling out from under the pile of men and horses were still dazed, when the thief jumped out from between his spearmen with his bones. This group of jumping feet and roaring demon thieves held their bones high and smashed them on the heads of the officers and soldiers who were still on the ground, the demon thieves had already suffered enough from the official cavalry, especially these iron floating slaughter encountered today, if it weren't for these iron pimple invulnerable charging demon thieves, where would they be beaten like this.
The demon thief who was full of anger used all his strength to hold the bone and smashed it towards the head of the official army, Lan Ziyi clearly saw that a royal forest army knight in front of him had just struggled to climb out from under the war horse, and was hit by the bone before he could raise his head, and then he lay on the ground and pulled out, only blood seeped out from the window on the iron surface.
Lan Ziyi was shocked and didn't intend to stand idly by, he stepped forward with his sword and stabbed straight in front of the demon thief's throat. The demon thief was originally carrying the bones to smash the sergeant in front of Lan Ziyi, but the blade of the sword stabbed by Lan Ziyi disrupted his plan. The bones were heavy, and although the demon thief withdrew his hand, he couldn't completely pull back the equipment defense, but Lei Youde's elite were all outlaws in the end, and in a hurry, the thief actually stretched out his left hand to hold the blade of Lan Ziyi's sword. Lan Ziyi's saber slowed down an inch under the clenched muscles in the palm of the demon thief's hand, and stopped in front of the demon thief's throat, and the demon thief's left hand was splashed with blood from this sword, spraying all over his face.
Lan Ziyi saw that his sword stopped, and he couldn't advance if he tried hard, and he couldn't pull it back, but when he looked up, he saw that the demon thief's face was crimson and his face was hideous, and the bones of the demon thief's right hand were raised high, only to hear the demon thief roar:
"White-robed ghost! Give back my brother's life! “
Then the demon thief put Lan Ziyi's sword aside, picked up the hammer and smashed it at Lan Ziyi's head.
Lan Ziyi's heart is terrible, but Ji people have their own natural appearance, and the soldiers of the Royal Forest Army who were covered by Lan Ziyi have crawled out at this time, although the sergeant was stunned, but he also understood what kind of chaos it was now, so he got up hard, almost jumped up from the ground, and hit his head on the chin of the demon thief who rushed forward.
The sergeant wore an iron helmet, and with one blow turned his entire head into a hammer, shattering the thief's jaw and causing him to collapse to the ground like a dead pig.
