Chapter 54: Scuffle
I have to say that Lin Ji did have a set of leading troops, and after learning that his lord would be invited to participate in the banquet of the City Lord's Mansion, the Imperial Guard Army immediately sent their scouts to monitor the banquet hall of the City Lord's Mansion every step of the way.
And after these scouts found out that there was a riot in the city lord's mansion, they immediately sent the information back to the garrison of the imperial guard, and then there was a scene in front of them.
An imperial cavalryman wearing golden armor and carrying a spear constantly took advantage of the spear in their hand to charge Zheng Yuan's subordinate Hu cavalry. Although Zheng Yuan's Hu Qi was all very strong, in the face of the suppression of the equipment at the moment, he had to retreat until he made a gap.
Lin Ji and Zhao Fu were in the gap.
"Boss! We're here to pick you up! Among the imperial cavalry, someone shouted.
"Little Liu!" Lin Ji also recognized the man.
"Boss, we're safe!" Lin Ji took the reins that Xiao Liu sent to him, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Ji put Zhao Fu on the back of the horse first, he knew that it would still be difficult for Zhao Fu to control the war horse in his current state, so he simply went on a horse with two people.
"Who is this?" Xiao Liu asked curiously.
"Zhao Fu, it's my boss." Lin Ji replied simply.
"Oh, it's the boss's boss." Xiao Liu said he understood.
"How many of us came?" Lin Ji asked.
"Report to the boss, we're worried that something will happen to you, and we're all here!" Little Six answers.
"Well done!" Lin Ji was completely relieved at this time, with 20,000 imperial guards in hand, he was not afraid of any enemy in front of him.
"There are a lot of enemies, what should we do, boss?" Xiao Liu looked at the Hu Qi who kept pouring in from all directions, and he also realized that their enemies were much more difficult than they imagined.
"Break through first, let's go out of the city, to the southwest, and see if we can withdraw to Jiulian City!" Lin Ji thought for a moment and said.
Now that Jiulian City is still in their hands, if it is just a rebellion launched by the defenders of Mustard City, then withdrawing Jiulian City is obviously a good plan. Of course, Lin Ji felt that things were not so simple, but he knew better that no matter where he was at the moment, it was definitely safer than staying in Mustard City.
"Great! The back team becomes the front team, we break through! Xiao Liu ordered.
With the help of the war horse, it became much easier for Zhao Fu and the others to break through, at least in terms of numbers, they were no longer alone. And the mobility of the war horse and the forest halberd are not of the same grade, in this case, ten forest halberds can't rush a war horse.
No matter how strong the combat power of Zheng Yuan's Hu cavalry is, it is not a simple matter to want to leave Lin Ji's imperial cavalry.
"Damn it!" Qin Chunyang scolded again, he never thought that until now, this Zhao Fu would still be able to run! Originally, he thought that after successfully controlling Zheng Yuan, relying on Zheng Yuan and his cavalry, it would definitely not be difficult to trap a Zhao Funa, even if there was one more Lin Ji, it didn't matter.
But one wrong step and one wrong step, where would Qin Chunyang calculate that those recruits of the Imperial Guard Army dared to leave their stations without the order of the commander-in-chief, and they would become one of Zhao Fu's helps.
"It's all because of this halberd!" Qin Chunyang hated Lin Ji at this moment, and he bowed to Long Shouyi beside him: "General Long, it's a little reckless, please ask General Long to take action!" ”
"Hmph, just let me come earlier, if Zhao Fu escapes today, then it's all to blame for you wanting to take the credit alone!" Long Shouyi said with some resentment.
"It's Ben's fault, it's Ben's fault!" Qin Chunyang hurriedly apologized, he knew that if he failed to dispose of Zhao Fu, not only would the original "credit" be gone, but even his head might be gone.
"Don't worry, he won't be able to escape!" Long Shouyi showed a cruel smile, he knew a lot more than Qin Chunyang.
Soon, Long Shouyi personally put on his armor and chased out with his Zhongzhou iron cavalry in the direction of the imperial cavalry's retreat.
"Damn, why is the road in this mustard city so messy!" Lin Ji scolded, if he knew who designed this mustard city, he would definitely dig that person's grave.
At present, the Imperial Guard led by Lin Ji has begun to go out of the city separately after receiving Lin Ji's order, and Lin Ji is himself leading the elite Imperial Cavalry among the elite of the Imperial Guard to break through, but this cavalry is different from other foot soldiers, and some roads are not feasible for them.
The water network of the mustard city is dense, there are more than 100 large and small bridges in the city, and some sections of the river are slightly wider but have to be crossed by boat, and the forest halberd can not do anything in the face of this situation.
Foot soldiers can take boats, but imperial cavalry cannot. Not to mention that I don't know how deep the river is, the equipment on the imperial cavalry alone is heavy enough, so that Lin Ji can only keep detouring.
"Found it!" As soon as Lin Ji retreated from the previous section of the blocked road, he saw the menacing Long Shouyi with his Zhongzhou Iron Horse.
Long Shouyi is also a veteran, he is of course convinced of the combat power of the Zhongzhou Iron Cavalry, in his opinion, he has 20,000 Zhongzhou Iron Cavalry, which is enough to completely block all the intersections of Mustard City. And the opponent's imperial cavalry is only 4,000, only one-fifth of his, this is a sure victory.
Just when Long Shouyi thought that this reward would definitely fall into his hands, suddenly a sword light slashed, followed by the snort of the war horse.
"Ahh
Long Shouyi let out a miserable scream, the armor on his chest was completely destroyed, and Lin Ji used the knife to leave a deep scar on his chest.
"You're so annoying!" Lin Ji was already confused by the messy roads in Mustard City, and now a person who didn't know who wanted to block his way suddenly appeared, and the impatient Lin Ji directly taught Long Shouyi a vivid lesson with a knife - don't mess with the driver who is in a bad mood.
"General!" Fortunately, although Long Shouyi's armor didn't play a role, it at least resisted a trace of the blade from Lin Ji, so that he would not die on the spot.
"Kill! Kill them all! Kill them all! Not a single one to stay! Long Shouyi covered the huge knife mark on his chest and ordered.
He originally thought that this was a credit that he could pick up at will, after all, the combat power of the Zhongzhou Iron Cavalry and the combat power of the defenders of Mustard City were not the same, but he didn't expect that he was seriously injured and almost died as soon as he saw him. In this regard, Long Shouyi only felt a hot pain on his face, which was a little more painful than the pain in his chest, which was too embarrassing. He is also a veteran general of the Zhongzhou Iron Cavalry, but he is not Lin Ji's one-knife enemy.
With Long Shouyi's order, the Zhongzhou Iron Cavalry under his command began to fight with the Imperial Cavalry in the mustard city with narrow roads. In this regard, Lin Ji could only fight and retreat, while commanding the army to resist the attack from the Zhongzhou Iron Cavalry, he shifted his position and sought a way out of the city.
