God is the best joker in the world, and often when people just see a glimmer of hope, or even before they can react and be happy, they will come to a slap and wake people up. At this time, the thousand pikemen were like this, God played a big joke with them, and even more so with Keiji, who rekindled the hope of victory!

Just as they had just arrived at the rear of their own personnel, and when they saw that the 2,000 men of the Thunder Pioneer Regiment were gradually about to be completely surrounded, their eyes had already burst with joy, as if they saw that their prey was about to be bitten by themselves, and their hopes were about to be realized.

But at this moment, an unexpected scene appeared, and the forty-five degrees in the air in front of them flashed with dazzling light, no worse than the silver spear in their hands, and even more dazzling.

Almost in the next second, a frightened cry rang out from the crowd: "It's a bow and arrow!" It's a bow and arrow!! ”

The pikemen are the natural nemesis of the cavalry, and it can be said that after a thousand pikemen are lined up in a phalanx, several times the cavalry will not want to crush the phalanx, let alone completely annihilate it. However, bows and crossbows are the natural nemesis of pikemen, a thousand pikemen, especially after the array, do not need several times, nor do they need the same number of people, not even half of the people, two or three hundred archers or crossbowmen, under the long-range attack, only need three to five firing processes, the thousand pikemen are almost finished, not only the formation is scattered, but even the number of people is probably going to die.

There are still not many arrows in the sky, it is still the same "screen", it is still issued by the more than 300 skilled horse archers, the target is still the enemy, but the enemy just now still has a small shield to cover it, and this time the enemy army is a defenseless pikeman.

Because the spears in the hands of these people are made of stainless steel, nearly three meters long, and the weight of the spears with the thickness of the bowl mouth is naturally not light, so the armor on their bodies is definitely not too heavy, and it is mainly light armor with low protection. At this time, in the face of the rain of arrows falling from the sky, they almost had only one way to run away.

Before the rain of arrows fell, the entire group of 1,000 people was already in chaos, and some of them had already thrown away the heavy spears in their hands and ran away to the open space where they could escape. Some people remember that on the battlefield, the weapon is their life, so they don't throw away their spear when they run away. But this has also become the biggest obstacle for those who don't know how to be flexible, the three-meter-long silver gun weighing dozens of pounds, the speed of escaping is naturally very slow, but it is not even convenient to twist the body, casually dialing on the body of a nearby companion, it will easily knock it to the ground, and even break the muscles and bones.

When this rain of arrows fell, the entire thousand-man spear team had already run, scattered, fallen, and wounded, and had no ability to fight again. When the second rain of arrows fell, more than half of the casualties were lost. In the third formation, the thousand-man pikemen were gone, and they could only see from the mess where they had just stood.

A surge of hope that could turn the tide of the battle had just risen, and after seeing the sudden change, the flame of hope in Keiji's heart was almost instantly extinguished by the pouring 'heavy rain'. No matter what Keiyoshi thought, he didn't expect that his opponent would be so strong, even counting the attack of the spear team.

In fact, the real situation was not what Jing Ji considered, but after the thousand-man cavalry regiment of the Ben Thunder Pioneer Regiment scattered to the rear of the brigade caught up again, seeing that his own attack had stalled, he wanted to use two salvos to continue to disrupt the enemy's defensive line, so as to help the comrades in front break through more easily, and penetrate the enemy's camp at the lowest cost and as quickly as possible.

Fifteen thousand people, all kinds of troops, were broken by three thousand cavalry regiments and even broke through the defense line. In Jing Ji's usual cognition, this is something that is absolutely impossible to happen, but at this time, it really happened in front of him, no matter how much he didn't want to believe it, after all, the facts were in front of him, and he saw it with his own eyes.

What to do, what to do!? The beads of sweat on Jingji's forehead kept sliding down the sides of the bridge of his nose and his temples, and he couldn't stop shivering, even his teeth were clattering up and down, and he kept asking himself in his heart, let alone giving a new order for a while, and even forgetting about continuing to retreat.

At this moment, something unexpected happened to Jingji again, and the Thunder Pioneer Regiment, which was about to break through the layers of defense and kill in front of him, actually withdrew! Without any warning, there was no superfluous killing, basically turning the horse's head and galloping back.

Looking at the suddenly retreating Benlei Pioneer Regiment, not only Jing Ji wondered in his heart, but even his generals slowly surrounded him at this time, and asked the reason for it, but no matter how everyone asked, no one proposed to organize a cavalry to chase and kill, after all, the battle just now was enough to scare their courage, how could anyone dare to rashly put forward the idea of going to chase and kill?

And not to mention the ordinary soldiers under their command, in the face of the fierce Thunder Pioneer Regiment, they can't wait to hide far away, even if they have retreated now, they can't even raise the courage to put a cold arrow behind their backs, even if a general proposes to lead troops to chase and kill, I'm afraid they can't form a decent cavalry regiment.

Just as Jing Ji and the others were talking nonsense, a low-level officer was squeezed out of the crowd in front of him, and when he arrived in front of Jing Ji, he hurriedly bowed and reported: "Report!" General, the enemy stopped a mile in front of our troops, and the other side also raised the flag. ”

"Oh? Whose flag? A lieutenant general beside Jing Ji hurriedly stepped forward and asked with an anxious face.

"One says Tadatake, and the other says Kaede!" The junior officer replied.

"Shhhh Jing Jideng gasped, stretched out his hand with remorse on his face and slapped his thigh fiercely, and kept shaking his head and sighing: "I should have thought it was him!" But didn't our spies say that he went out to meet the army! ”

The low-level officer didn't know that the situation was normal, but the people next to Jing Ji gasped and exclaimed after listening to it, and they naturally said who the "he" in Jing Ji's mouth meant.

"General! Why did you say he suddenly withdrew his troops? Is it that he is running out of troops? A confidant of a lieutenant general, who thought he was very smart, offered his opinion to Keiyoshi.

"You fucking idiot!" Jing Ji raised his leg and kicked the cronie who spoke far away, and then raised his hand and pointed at the cronie and scolded: "Insufficient troops?!" Oh you damn figured it out! Three thousand men almost broke through our defenses! Are you embarrassed to say that there are not enough troops? You're foot! You're on! I'll give you five thousand! You destroyed the 3,000 people just now! ”

The cronies who were suddenly beaten didn't know why Jing Ji suddenly got so angry, although he was not convinced, but he had to be next to them, after all, Jing Ji usually treats these henchmen very well. Immediately, after the man got up from the ground, he stood aside and did not dare to speak again.

"Let's go! Go to the front with General Ben and have a look! After pondering in place for a long time, Jing Ji still couldn't figure it out, and finally had to be ruthless, waving his hand and greeting everyone in a deep voice.
