Chapter 10 2 Tempting the Enemy
In this Yaqui crusade army, if you want to talk about who has the highest martial arts, I'm afraid it must be Leo. Of course, Noyuda probably won't admit this, and Gernas probably will disagree. But Leo knew that the old prefect he respected, Gernus, was past his prime, and his actual combat strength was not as good as before; And Nuoyuda's martial arts should be slightly inferior to himself, although he is a strong opponent, there should be no suspense to win, but he is just unwilling to admit defeat.
It was because of Leao's triumph that he took on the position of pioneer. He was now at the head of the line on his horse, observing the terrain around him, and eating the jerky from the bag behind the saddle. The terrain in front of him became more and more precipitous, and Leo's heart gradually began to tighten, and none of the scouts he sent to reconnoiter in front of him returned. But he wasn't going to show his anxiety, which would make the soldiers nervous.
As soon as the mountain road turned, he saw two knights standing in the distance of a stone's throw ahead, one of them holding a long-handled weapon that Leo had never seen before, and the other big man holding a giant sword, the size of which was eye-catching. Dara stopped as soon as he pulled the reins and shouted, "What a man ahead!" ”
The ones who came were none other than Li Tianhao and Xenas. I saw that Xenas shook the giant sword in his hand and smiled: "We are the Tyrs Rebels, and we have come to check whether your troops are qualified to be our opponents!" ”
With that, the two of them urged their horses and went straight to Leo. Leo hurriedly picked up the battle axe to face the battle, Li Tianhao's horse was fast, and before the soldiers in the back row opened their bows and arrows, they had already arrived in front of Leo, the weapons of the two were staggered, and there was a loud noise, Leo only felt numb, Li Tianhao's horse had already crossed Leo and rushed into the middle of the soldiers. Before Leo could react, Xenas had already killed, and the giant sword slashed horizontally, Leo didn't have time to think about it, and parried with a battle axe, this time his battle axe almost didn't fly out of his hand, and Xenas's strength was slightly better than Li Tianhao. Leo didn't know well, when the two horses staggered, Leo shrank and dodged a sword from Xenas's backhand, Leo didn't wait for him to make another move, his legs clamped the horse's belly, and the horse rushed forward, running straight out of more than ten meters away Leo turned the horse's head. Rao was still scared into a cold sweat: the strength of the two thieves in front of him was simply rare in his life, and there were such a remarkable figure among the thief army!
When Leo turned his head, he realized that the two had rushed into the soldiers and went on a killing spree! The giant sword of Xenas and Li Tianhao's halberd were waved, and the narrow mountain road suddenly became a blood-colored road, and the soldiers were put down piece by piece like cutting wheat, because they were at the bend of the mountain road, the team behind them could not come up, and the soldiers of the brigade could not be stretched out on the narrow mountain road, and the small group of soldiers could not stop these two wolf-like warriors at all! Leo hurriedly jumped on his horse and shouted, "Don't be too rampant, look at the axe!" ”
Li Tianhao saw that he turned around to face Leo, as soon as the two fought Leo, he felt that this opponent would never be able to win, and needless to say that he was not familiar with the path of this strange weapon, the strength and speed of the opponent's attack alone were above him, and he was already at a disadvantage after only a dozen rounds of fighting, Leo saw that the color of the other party's eyes was different from left to right in the parry, and his heart moved, and he asked: "Is it Li Tianhao?" ”
"Exactly, since you know my name, you must have realized that you must be dead, right?" Li Tianhao did not relax as he spoke, and his hands were as tight as a move.
Only then did Leo believe Darla's words, this character is indeed not something Dara can deal with, and even he can't bear it. Fortunately, at this critical moment, the soldiers behind had successfully climbed to the top of the ridge, ready to use bows and arrows to support the troops in front.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Xenas hurriedly killed the soldiers around him and fled: "There are people on the mountain! Come on! ”
Li Tianhao heard this and no longer fell in love with the battle, and forced Leo to hurry up with several rapid attacks in a row, Li Tianhao took advantage of the situation to turn the horse's head and gallop out, but shouted in his mouth: "The strength of the Yaji army is nothing more than this, see me come and go like the wind, ride the horse around, what have you done." Hahaha"
Xenas also echoed: "No wonder Yaki and Arubania have been fighting for so many years and can't tell the winner, it turns out that the combat power is only so little, everyone, you still cherish your lives, hurry up and go home and hide in bed and hug your wife, this is the only thing you can do, or I can do it for you, but I have to be paid!" ”
This wind-like assault caused dozens of casualties to the Yagi army, which was not a large number, but it was a considerable blow, as there were only two people on the other side. The already injured self-esteem of the Yaji Army coupled with the provocation of Li Tianhao and Xenas, all the Yaji Army present were filled with righteous indignation and rage, and the instant excitement overwhelmed the embankment of reason, and the Yaji Army roared like a group of crazy tigers and rushed towards these two hateful enemies. Leo knew that this was the other party's provocation, but unfortunately the army was already out of control, and Leo himself was also a fiery temper, but Noyoda's temper was worse and made him less conspicuous. The other party's words just now had already provoked the anger of Leo himself, coupled with the high morale of the army at the moment, and the enemy in front of him was the commander of the thief army, Leo decided to use the anger of the soldiers to try to kill the enemy's commander Li Tianhao.
It's a pity that Leo's men are all infantry, and they can't catch up with the two enemies on horseback, although Leo can catch up with them, but Leo at least hasn't lost his mind because of anger, and he alone is simply going to die, if those two people join forces, I'm afraid that they will have to be in different places within ten moves. The soldiers' purely emotional runaway was soon defeated by fatigue, and the panting soldiers stopped their pursuit, and Leo was finally able to re-order the soldiers to form a formation—now that the enemy had appeared, it was important to maintain the battle formation. As a fierce general, Leo has not forgotten what a commander should do.
Unfortunately, it was too late, only a whistle was heard, and a rain of arrows flew on both sides of the mountain in an instant, these arrows were not only fast, but also extremely accurate, and hundreds of soldiers fell to the ground in the first wave of attacks! Leo was taken aback, these soldiers in front of him were Yaki's regular army, and they were wearing the regular armor of Yagi's army, which was composed of leather armor and iron locks! Ordinary arrows wouldn't hurt much flesh even if they pierced the armor, but now he had seen some soldiers shot through by arrows! What a power!
Leo didn't have time to sigh at the power of the opponent's bow and arrows, and hurriedly ordered to retreat, he had already seen the surrounding terrain and the number of opponents, there were nearly a thousand archers on the ridges on both sides, in this kind of place was flanked from the left and right, if the attack was from the back, the casualties would be very heavy, only to endure the casualties and withdraw from this area first to regroup.
The troops dragged the wounded who were still wailing and just began to turn, and the second wave of arrow rain arrived again, because the troops turned to the crowd more densely, this time the casualties were greater than the last time, and the screams of the soldiers came and went, Leo was really anxious now, this kind of devil-like arrows was too terrible, and it didn't take a few waves of his five thousand people to explain here!
"Shield on the wings! Don't be too dense in formation! Leo shouted as he directed his troops backwards, and the soldiers realized the disadvantage of coming together, but unfortunately the mountain path was narrow, and it was not so easy to disperse. Fortunately, with the shield man's cover, the casualties in the third wave were much less. The troops began to quickly retreat, and finally withdrew from the mountain road after surviving a full six volleys of the opponent, and just as they were about to get rid of the opponent, an arrow struck Leo in the back.
This is the general's armor, and ・・・・・・ Leo's thoughts only came here, and he lost consciousness.
