Chapter 259: Western Equestrianism

Now it's time to unfold the formation.

Biting down on the last chocolate bar, Wen Cheng asks for a horse and suddenly discovers a fatal problem.

I can't ride!

I originally wanted to run to Liu Zhen to rub the horse and ride, but she is pretending to be Her Majesty, and I want to do this without being killed by so many generals.

At this moment, Lorrain called out to her Ema Verandive, jumped up and stretched out her hand to Wen Cheng.

So under the jealous gaze of Su Meng and Liu Zhen, Wen Cheng got on the horse, and he hugged the first paladin behind him and began to command the battle formation.

Wen Cheng hadn't mastered the essentials of horseback riding, and his legs and waist didn't exert force, so his butt was quickly turned upside down by the saddle, and Luo Lan was helpless to let him hold it.

Su Meng sat on Wu Han's horse and moved to the rear army, Liu Zhen and Deng Yu led the Chinese army to transfer, and Wen Cheng, Luo Lan and Ma Yuan moved to the left as a temporary headquarters.

After all, they are all soul fragments, and they will continue to sleep after the fight, right?

Under the banner of the Red and Black Guys, a group of herald cavalry stood by with the flag.

At the same time, the enemy's light cavalry left the battle and returned straight back to regroup, dozens of infantry formations began to advance, and arrows rained down.

After a brief exchange with Ma Yuan, Wen Cheng ordered.

Retreat.

Affected by this order, the morale of the whole army fell into a brief depression. Fortunately, the pace of retreat was steady, and the effect of this appeared after half an hour.

Naturally, the rear of the Chinese army did not show itself, and the infantry of the front army entered the village, relying on scattered buildings and streets to defend themselves. Crossbowmen took up the high ground.

Because he had been studying military affairs a while ago, Wen Cheng's proposal was quickly approved by the generals.

The forces should never be evenly distributed, and in the case of the departure of the main forces, the task of the partial division is to pretend that the main forces drag on as long as possible.

Our army gave up Cape Harding, Liu Zhen and Deng Yuyan died down, and led the cavalry of the Chinese army to gallop to the Rubia area in the rear, trying to bypass the right mountain pass and rush to the mouth of Lake Tiberias and the right army of Cen Peng, because Her Majesty the Empress personally conscripted, this cavalry army of more than 3,000 people had high morale and rushed very fast.

On the other hand, Wen Cheng left a large number of flags as the main force, and he moved the spearmen of the first school of the rear army forward to the back of the village to set up a formation, and Geng Yi, who was armed with a halberd, personally served as a temporary captain. Then Wen Chengchuan ordered the crossbowmen of the front army to move to the headquarters to occupy the left mountain, and the crossbowmen of the rear army moved to the right mountain, and it was a taboo for the military to disrupt the formation, but fortunately, the enemy's arrow curtain was not enough to reach here, and the morale of the crossbowmen after reaching the top quickly recovered.

With the village of Hardin as the center, after the formation of a crane wing formation composed of pure infantry and crossbowmen, the enemy's cavalry had no room to play.

Baldwin, perceiving this change, made two moves, one was to stand far away with the infantry holding shields, and the other was to advance the archers to a distance of two hundred meters and set fire to the mountain and fire arrows.

Our side has fewer strong crossbows, mostly hand crossbows, the advantage is that the quasi-head is high and explosive, although the long distance is not false, but the loading is slow, so the close-range effect is better, which is also the reason why Wen Cheng arranged street fighting, but the enemy has a longbow, soaked in kerosene and ignited the withered grass, the two mountains fell into fire at once.

So when the soldiers rushed to extinguish the fire, Wen Cheng made an amazing move.

He threw out a porcelain ball.

Whoosh, whoosh, with the addition of Rune, this super-large spatial shield enveloped five or six hundred people, and then ......

The enemy was also on fire there.

At this time, the advantage of our army's light armor was brought into play, and the fire was quickly extinguished by trampling and slapping, but the enemy's archers were wearing chain mail, and their movements were a little slower, and the smoke and fire were suddenly chaotic.

But in the next instant, it rained over the enemy's heads! The fire was extinguished at once.

What kind of operation is this, Yu Xiao?! Wen Cheng stared at the sky, and no one answered.

Baldwin did not expect the young man to use such inhuman means, so he ordered the archers to step back a hundred paces and reload. Knowing that there was an ambush in Harding Village, he didn't come up with a countermeasure for the time being.

What's more, he did catch a glimpse of a detachment from a distance evacuating from the rear of the enemy line, and as for what they were going to do, it would take a long time to get around.

So the enemy's attack stopped for a while, ready to regroup.

On the top of the scorched mountain, Luo Lan rode to the edge of the cliff, and Wen Chengchao, the two generals of his relatives, Ma Yuan and Li Tong, looked down on the battle situation and talked about the unnutritious topic of whether biscuits are good or not, and couldn't help frowning.

Because the left and right armies were nowhere to be seen, and it would take some time before the main force could attack, Baldwin, the boy, rode his horse to the front to command, and Balian led a group of several hundred heavy knights ready to charge.

Wen Cheng asked Ma Yuan softly, "General, what do you think is the difference between the enemy's deployment and the markings on this map?" ”

Ma Yuan looked at it and replied, "There is no difference." ”

The wind and sand rose suddenly, and the report of the front army was not wrong, but once the visual error was made, the consequences were unimaginable.

In fact, it was just Wen Cheng pretending to be calm and asking some detailed questions, and he didn't understand what the Balian who was shouting at the knights with righteous indignation was doing.

"Okay, how do you think you killed that striker?"

"Please Brother Gu personally come out." Ma Yuan replied.

The dialogue was only a few words. A dozen heralds took out their spears and hurriedly sorted out their armor.

Since he is the commander appointed by the empress, although he always feels a little soft when he holds a Western girl, it is not wrong to charge with him!

"Lead the horse!" Wen Cheng jumped off the horse with a loud shout.

In fact, just now Luo Lan had taught him the skills of Western equestrianism, and she was constantly correcting Wen Cheng's posture, and at this moment she was watching Wen Cheng get on the horse with expectant eyes.

Plopped and fell down for the first time.

The second time he stepped on the wrong foot, the last soldier couldn't stand it, so he pushed him to get up.

Call.

Wen Cheng didn't feel too embarrassed, after all, I was a high school student. Fortunately, this horse seems to have a little admiration for Lorraine's Verandif, wherever Lorland rides the horse, Wen Cheng doesn't need to clamp the horse's belly, it will follow honestly.

After getting on the horse, Wen Cheng didn't say a word, and drove the horse straight west with Luolan.

"Brother Gu?" Ma Yuan was a little puzzled, "The enemy is in the northeast. ”

Wen Cheng suddenly showed a hint of dissatisfaction.

So far, he has accumulated too much anger towards Yu Xiao. Is it interesting that you're pulling so many Heroic Spirits over to block your way?

As a joke, I killed the Kyushu god and the indomitable General Zhao, and now I'm fighting the medieval cavalry in the desert......

Just to find an engineer.

And then you have to keep asking yourself four words that are boring. It's really unlucky.

Although it is said that it is still a good result to receive the first paladin, I don't know if she still remembers leaving the museum.

So there is only one goal in this encounter.

"Baldwin." Wen Cheng dropped such a sentence and left with Luo Lan.

Whatever Balian he is, it doesn't matter if I lose all the infantry in the front and rear armies!

All I need to do is kill Baldwin to finish this floor, and then go down to find my sister and Rumei to escape this nightmare together!

But Baldwin is also in the northeast.

Of course, Wen Cheng is not a road idiot, he knows what he is doing.

I don't know who shouted, "General Gu is out of battle!" Flags keep up! Spear! ”

Ma Yuan and Li Tong rode their horses to follow, followed by more than a dozen heralds.

That's all I am.

For some reason, the memories and courage of a few months later were all poured into this tall and thin body, and Wen Cheng seemed to have grown ten years old all of a sudden, from Harding to Marisca and then detoured to the left mountain pass, and finding Feng Yi's left army was the established route.

He and Lorrain galloped along the ridge without stopping, gradually following the line of standard-bearers, followed by a dozen infantry with spears.

But Wen Cheng suddenly made a surprising move.

He aimed at a low cliff on the ridge and leaped down.

Originally, he had the idea of being seriously injured and hastened to join Feng Yi, but after landing, he was unscathed.

When he came back to his senses, he found that Su Meng in Wu Han's arms was smiling and groaning, and his arm was shining with a faint blue light.

This is the first time Wen Cheng has eaten Su Meng's vinegar.

Arriving at the foot of the deserted cliff, Wen Cheng counted the men and horses, a total of fifteen horsemen and dozens of infantry, and then sent two heralds to explore and find in the northwest and southwest directions respectively, and then estimated that Feng Yibu was fighting with the Knights Hospitaller there with the smoke and dust in the northwest direction.

But after the flow with the horse, Wen Cheng immediately rode the horse, and the group galloped in the northeast direction.

In other words, General Feng, you ran too far, and I can't control you.

At Harding Point, Barian had already broken our rear, and after the infantry array advanced to the village, he did not choose to enter the village, but divided into two groups and went up the hill, about to start hand-to-hand combat with the lightly armored crossbowmen.

On the other side, the main force of the Han army will join the division.
