Chapter 341: Cavalry Enters the War
Wen Sili knew very well that their task was to kill and injure the rebels as much as possible, and give these guys who were trying to fight Taoyuan Town an impressive dismount, as long as they could kill and injure the other party as much as possible, their own safety was not considered at all, and she knew very well that this ambush was only part of the plan, and she was the only one in the army of 4,000 people who knew about it.
In fact, it is not impossible for players to fight against the natives in battle, and the head-on battle may be far from the opponent, but the use of bows and arrows is a different situation. No matter how strong the rebels are, there is no good way to face the indiscriminate shooting of arrows without cover, except to rush through that dangerous distance as fast as possible, the only thing they can do is to pray that it is someone else who is hit by the arrow and not themselves.
Running uphill was a disadvantage, and the casualties of the rebels were greater than those in the previous battle. What's worse is that because the young marshal only cares about rushing up the hillside, the rebel army has no unified command, and the already chaotic situation suddenly becomes even more chaotic!
According to this kind of chaos, it is obviously beneficial to the originally disadvantaged side of Taoyuan Town, Wen Sili has no besieging people, and leads his subordinates to look down on the rebels, when the young marshal led people to kill the hillside, Wen Sili actually killed the rebel army, and the rebel soldiers who died directly or indirectly in her hands were not a hundred but eighty!
In such a situation, Wen Sili even had a feeling that even without Wang Hao's prepared backhand, she and her subordinates alone would have the confidence to kill these rebels. However, the distant roar of the earth quickly made her realize that such a feeling was nothing more than an illusion. She knows. The rebel army of 20,000 not only had a large number of archers, but also a cavalry team. In the Great Xia Empire. Cavalry is a very rare thing, and it can be called the king of war. A formed cavalry is enough to defeat several times the number of ordinary soldiers, and more importantly, the cavalry, with its powerful mobility ability, can often determine the success or failure of a battle with its surprise attack.
Wen Sili was not surprised that the other party had a back hand, originally in their plan, the ambush here was just a foreshadowing of a snake out of the hole, and the real killing move was still behind, but she didn't expect the other party to send this cavalry out directly.
With the addition of cavalry, things became a lot more complicated. It would certainly not be possible to continue the killing, but if you retreat immediately, it will not be easy to retreat to the next predetermined location before the cavalry catches up. Wen Sili knew that this was not the time to think about whether it would work or not, and that the key to this operation was to lead the other side into the final strike location, so as to ensure the maximum damage to the rebels. The appearance of cavalry is both a challenge and a great opportunity, if you can successfully bring the opposing cavalry there and inflict heavy damage. It's definitely a much bigger blow to the rebels than killing more ordinary soldiers!
The hillside had already begun to engage in hand-to-hand combat, and the 1,000 soldiers could not hold out much under the strong attack of the rebels, and there was chaos under the mountain, and Wen Sili rushed to kill. While trying her best to gather her subordinates, it didn't make much sense for her to run away by herself, only to gather enough people. In order to arouse the interest of the opponent's cavalry pursuit, the other party may not pay attention to it at all if there are fewer people.
But. The two sides are glued together, where she can gather if she wants to. When she killed her opponent from the battlefield again, she found that there were only more than ten of her subordinates who were still with her!
At this time, the opposing cavalry had already entered the battle group from the other side, and with their joining, the morale of the rebels was suddenly high, and it was only a matter of time before the players who were still fighting were destroyed. Seeing this, Wen Sili couldn't control much, no matter whether the other party would come to pursue or not, she could only grit her teeth and retreat quickly with these few remaining subordinates. What she didn't notice was that her every move had already been watched by a pair of vicious eyes.
The battle on the hillside continued, but the young marshal suddenly lost interest in continuing the attack. Because those bastards on the hillside may be able to take advantage of their bows and arrows at a distance, and if they fight at close range, they are not at all threatening. At this moment, his own cavalry troops had been killed, and he knew that this was another arrangement by Marshal Mai, and he was not surprised that Marshal Mai, who had always been steady, would make such an arrangement. And it turns out that this time Mai Dashuai's arrangement once again played a role.
The young marshal drove down from the hillside, his own BMW had died in the chaos, he casually snatched a horse from a cavalryman, and found the cavalry general who was directing his men to clean up the battlefield, "I order you, immediately take your men with me to continue the pursuit!" ”
The cavalry general knew about Taoyuan Town's ambush here, and he also guessed that Mai Dashuai's intention to deliberately let himself rescue later, was nothing more than to let this boy learn a lesson. He can completely understand the young marshal's angry and eager revenge appearance at the moment, but as a cavalry general, he also has his dignity, and he can't just be ordered by anyone.
"Without the order of the marshal, please forgive the young marshal for being difficult to obey!" The cavalry general said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"Fart! Did you ever tell you what would happen if something happened to you? The young marshal was repeatedly rejected, and he was furious, and the fire in his belly instantly found a channel to vent.
"This ......" The cavalry general was stunned for a while, although Mai Dashuai had never told him this, but this kind of thing can be known as long as you use your brain, Mai Dashuai just wants to teach the young marshal a lesson, in case something really goes wrong with the young marshal, let alone him, even Mai Dashuai probably can't eat and walk around!
"You can't go! I'll chase it myself! After the young marshal finished speaking, he turned his horse's head and chased in the direction of Wen Sili's retreat.
The cavalry general gritted his teeth, so he had to ask his men to gather quickly, and the mess here was handed over to those ordinary soldiers to deal with, and he hurriedly chased after the young marshal.
Seeing that no one was chasing behind him, Wen Sili thought that the other party had given up the idea of chasing him, and slowly stopped, thinking about whether to notify Wang Hao of the failure of the mission, but vaguely heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance. (To be continued.) )
