Chapter 41: The Tragedy of the White Horse

The battle in the canyon was changing rapidly, and the souls of the dead who had fallen under the iron hooves of Bai Ma Yi had been countless, and in just five minutes, this invincible iron horse had broken through to the middle of the Shadow Demon team, and although the exit was far away, the battle had become extremely difficult.

The canyon is very narrow, only a few dozen people can go hand in hand, although the Shadow Demon has a numerical advantage but cannot be used, but as the White Horse Yicong gradually highlights this narrow distance, they will face the entire army of the Shadow Demon!

As the saying goes, "a thousand people are in the city, and ten thousand people are in the wilderness".

The 30,000-strong army of Shadow Demons filled the open space at the mouth of the canyon, and as far as the eye could see, there was a surge of people, and there was no gap in the denseness.

The Shadow Demon sneered in the array: "I don't know what is dead or alive! How do you see how you face me? ”

Six or seven hundred people are just a drop in the ocean for an army of 30,000, and there is a danger of annihilation at all times, from this level, what the shadow demon said is indeed right, and Zhou Siyuan, who should have collapsed in despair in his thinking, is now sneering: "Although there are many people, there is no formation at all, these tens of thousands of soldiers and horses are densely piled here, and they are not flexible to move and dodge each other, and their combat effectiveness will inevitably drop greatly. ”

What he said was indeed right, because the Shadow Demon wanted to speed up the speed to pass through the Guò Canyon, he really didn't think too much about the formation, and now he was in a hurry to face the battle, and it was impossible to rearrange the troops, but Rao was so, how could these 30,000 troops be afraid of a few hundred cavalry?

Isn't this a fool's dream?

Nearly half of the duration of the spear assault had passed, and now he had to face the enemy's army like a sea, Zhou Siyuan did not dare to be careless, and launched an attack again.

The army of the Shadow Demon is composed of ordinary soldiers, and the composition of the troops is also uneven, and now in front of the White Horse Yicong is a group of sword and axe hands, these people have short swords and big axes in their hands, they are good at close combat, and they have a great advantage against other infantry, and they are often able to exert great might, but in front of the White Horse Yicong, all the infantry are almost the same, and they can only be described in two words:

"Weak!"

In front of the white horse who launched a spear assault, these usually flaunting sword and axe hands are not even weak, they can only be said to be a group of rice and wheat to be harvested, and there is only one ending waiting for them, that is, death!

In fact, as soon as Bai Ma Yi attacked, these sword and axe hands fell in pieces.

An inch long, an inch strong.

The short knives and axes they rely on to kill the enemy are like children's toys in front of the spears of the white horse righteous servants, there is no lethality at all, and often before they can get close, the spears have already penetrated their chests and pierced their heads, as easily as chopping vegetables and melons, effortlessly!

"What a strong cavalry!"

"It's too strong, this lethality is terrifying!"

"It's okay, they can't be arrogant for too long, my shield infantry squad is ahead, and it will definitely stop them!"

Everyone followed his line of sight, and sure enough, they saw a group of shield soldiers blocking the road of Bai Ma Yicong's breakthrough, at this moment these shield infantry had already put on a defensive posture, with huge shields in front of them, firmly guarding their bodies, living like a big king who had only shrunk into the turtle shell, and its defensive ability was unparalleled!

Zhou Siyuan sneered again, if he encountered such an opponent in normal times, he would probably think about a thing or two, but now he is fearless, under the blessing state of the spear assault, he can ignore a qiē armor, these shields that can block the attack of weapons are almost no different from scrap iron in his eyes, and they can be broken and killed lightly!

The white horse who launched the spear assault is like a mad peerless beast, nothing can stop their progress, anything!

"Today I want to show you foolish people who is stronger in the spear or shield!" In the face of these shield infantry, Zhou Siyuan raised his gun and stabbed, the thick and hard shield was as vulnerable as cotton, and it was penetrated as soon as he stabbed it, and the spear pierced in, stabbing the soldiers hiding behind the shield to the heart!

"How is this possible?"

"Are these shields made of cotton? Can't even resist the other party's blow? ”

"It's impossible!" The owner of this team of shield infantry is depressed, and the strength of the soldiers under his command is not clear to others, how can he, as the master, not know?

The reason why he was able to have absolute self-confidence was because he was not an ordinary shield infantry, but an intermediate shield infantry who had undergone a baptism of war!

The shields held by these shield infantry were not ordinary ordinary goods, but the Hundred Refining Gang Shields that he had spent a lot of money to buy, which had twice as much defense than ordinary shields!

The mid-level shield infantry plus the more defensive Bailian Gang Shield couldn't even take a single shot from the opponent?

"It's impossible!" His heart was dripping blood, and these shield infantry were almost all of his belongings, and now they were all killed in battle without explanation?

The cavalry in front of him is actually so strong?

Breaking through a line of defense again, Zhou Siyuan sprinted forward non-stop, the duration of the spear assault was about to pass, and he had to do his best to solve the battle!

This road is like a bamboo, and the rabble in front of them can't stop the footsteps of the white horse at all, if nothing else, they will be able to successfully break through in a while!

The idea is good, but God doesn't fulfill people's wishes, God thinks that he is not ready to give him this opportunity, after such a long time, the army of archers of the Shadow Demon finally belatedly appeared in his sight!

"Shhh Zhou Siyuan gasped, it's nothing else, it's just that the number of archers in this team is too special, right?

An army of more than 30,000 people, do you need to have 5,000 archers?

"Do you need it?" He even has the heart to cry now, although the archers are the backbone of the army, but firstly, the bow and arrow, as a long-range attack force, is not as accurate as the sword, and it takes a lot of effort to control it, and secondly, once the two armies are in close combat, the deterrent power of the archers is greatly weakened, and it is difficult to cause effective killing, so the average army will not carry too many archers.

Unless it is a special team of archers, the average army of tens of thousands can have eight or nine hundred archers already reaching the sky, and there is no need for more!

But the army in front of him is only more than 30,000 horses, why is there a team of 5,000 archers?

Zhou Siyuan's eyes changed in an instant, could the commander of this group be a brain-dead?

Of course, there is also a possibility, that is, this group of people knows that they have to face themselves, so they have brought so many archers to the right medicine, and they want to kill themselves on the spot!

He instantly confirmed this conjecture, and with the treacherous viciousness of those individuals in the city, he could definitely come up with such a shameless plan!

In fact, he really wronged the Shadow Demon, for the Shadow Demon and Zhang Fan, he Zhou Siyuan was the real uninvited guest, and no one expected his arrival, so naturally he couldn't take precautions!

The reason why Shadow Fiend leads so many archers also has his own considerations!

In the encirclement and suppression of Zhang Fan by Blood Shura, Zhang Fan's team of archers undoubtedly bloomed with the most shining brilliance, and the shadow demon deeply understood Zhang Fan's familiarity with the bone marrow and miraculous operation of archers, in order to avoid repeating the mistakes of Blood Shura, he specially organized a team of 5,000 archers, in a vain attempt to ruthlessly eliminate Zhang Fan's team of archers with absolute numerical superiority, and once Zhang Fan's archers were eliminated, the next battle would be very simple, it could be said to be absolutely crushing!

Creation makes people, these archers have not yet reached the moment to play their ultimate function, but they have been exposed in advance to deal with Zhou Siyuan's white horse righteous servant!

There were less than three minutes left before the end of the duration of the spear assault, and seeing that he was about to break through this heavy encirclement, but suddenly encountered this team of terrifying archers, Zhou Siyuan's heart became more and more resentful, and the opponent actually did everything to annihilate him!

"But!" His eyes flashed: "This team of archers actually appeared in front of me defenselessly, who gave them the guts?" ”

"Who gave them the guts to dare to underestimate my subordinates, and the white horse was righteous?"

I have to say that Zhou Siyuan's self-confidence, he is still a lot of distance away from this team of archers, and the distance is densely packed with shadow demon troops, under this kind of strict protection, in his eyes, he is just "defenseless"?

So how do you take precautions?

I'm afraid that with the blessing of the spear assault, there is no army in this world that can be called "prepared" in front of Bai Ma Yicong, right?

"White Horse Righteous Servant, Charge with Me!" At that moment, he didn't hesitate, and launched a charge in an instant, and the soldiers in front of him were all slashed by him, and they were rapidly approaching the army of archers of the Shadow Demon, and once these archers were close to him, I am afraid that even the gods would not be able to save them!

In the face of the arrogant and ferocious White Horse Servant, the shadow demon's gloomy face was full of mockery, since he dared to send a brigade of archers, how could he be defenseless?

Before Bai Ma Yi could rush to the archers, a group of captains of spearmen suddenly moved in front of them, and the sharp spears were firmly held in their hands, stabbing straight in front of them, waiting for the cavalry to approach!

The spear flashed with a little light, like the stars in the sky, dazzling, a sneer appeared on their faces, when the cavalry met the pikemen who were in good formation, the outcome was already doomed, that is, even people and horses were pierced by spears, like sugar gourds were strung on the tip of the spear, and died instantly, which has been tried and tested!

Pikemen do have absolute restraint for the average cavalryman, but the problem is:

Is the White Horse Yicong an ordinary cavalryman?

Of course, the answer is no, there is no doubt about this, for the spearman who suddenly appeared in front of him, Zhou Siyuan obviously expected it, his face showed a smile of incomprehensibility, and suddenly raised his gun and shouted: "White horse righteousness, three turns back and sprint!" ”

Three-stage turnaround sprint, another class stunt of the White Horse Yicong, can instantly change the direction three times in the wild run, it is the only magic skill to avoid the strong and the weak, bypass a strong enemy, and kill a qiē enemy of your choice!

In the stunned gaze of the pikemen, Bai Ma Yi made a sudden brake in front of them, and actually changed direction in the extreme speed, rushed towards the side of the spearmen's door, and after reaching the side, he turned back, and actually bypassed the pikemen in an instant, and came to the stunned archers.

These poor archers did not release an arrow, but now they are forced to face these evil gods, the defense line in front of them seems to be strong, but I didn't expect it to be so vulnerable, they came to the battlefield with confidence, and they had laughed at the miserable experience of the infantry before, and now this encounter finally befell their heads, like the scythe of death hanging high above their heads, making people's scalps tingle, and the bow and arrow in their hands can barely hold it!

The archer who was close to the cavalry, that is not even as good as a lamb!

It's just a pile of mustard, which can be trampled on wantonly!

"Quick, support the archers!" The Shadow Demon yelled wildly, he was finally afraid, he never expected that this mere six or seven hundred cavalry, in his eyes, was not worth mentioning, and it could bring him such a huge threat!

His own army of 30,000 can't stop it?

The axe hand is like a child, the shield infantry is like nothing, and even the pikemen have become a joke.

What kind of attack power can 5,000 archers who have been taken close by Hakuba Yi exert and what kind of resistance can they make?

When it comes to melee attacks, can they be stronger than axes?

In terms of defensive capabilities, can they be stronger than shield infantry?

In terms of restraint against cavalry, can they compare to pikemen?

No! Neither!

The Shadow Fiend was roaring, and he was in a frenzy, what was he going to do with the chaos if something happened to this team of archers? What is it to defeat it?

Could it be that the purpose of his complacent arrival is just to follow in the footsteps of the Blood Shura?

After such a long period of forbearance, this long period of struggle, he finally got to such a position today, are these all dream bubbles, and now the bloody rain and bloody wind are coming, to wake up his sweet dreams and face the cruel reality again?

No!

He didn't want to, he didn't allow!

"Archers in the back row, indiscriminate attacks on the front!" Seeing that the rescue force couldn't keep up with the pace of the White Horse's righteous servant, the Shadow Demon's face was so gloomy that it was almost dripping, and he shouted through gritted teeth.

Indiscriminate attack, which means that even the archers in the front row are covered in the attack range, and these talented allies will experience the baptism of arrows together with the white horse followers!

I have to say that Shadow Demon is also a decisive person, and now this response is very reasonable, if you hesitate for a moment, these 5,000 archers are estimated to not even have scum left under the guns of the White Horse Servants!

The rain of arrows poured in the sky, Zhou Siyuan's eyes shrank sharply, the opponent was obviously forced by him to be ruthless, and he actually used such a lose-lose attack method!

White Horse Yicong is good at riding and archery, and has a deep understanding of the attack of bows and arrows, and they can rely on their agility to dodge general arrow attacks, but the archers around them do not have such good luck, looking at the feather arrows that keep falling overhead, their eyes are full of incomprehension, helplessness and fear!

Why, do you want to attack us together?

Why, abandon us?

The rain of arrows was about to arrive, a trace of mockery flashed on Zhou Siyuan's face, and Bai Ma Yicong actually moved incredibly under his leadership, they increased their speed to the limit almost instantly, and rushed forward again for a distance, and it was this distance that made them pass by the rain of arrows in the sky!

It took only two of the three turnaround sprints to get around the pikemen, and one sprint was unused, and now he finally used it, and he successfully highlighted the attack of the arrows!

Three-stage Switchback Sprint: Three sprints at the limit speed of 50 meters each, with a cooldown of one hour and a 20% reduction in movement speed during the cooldown.

The rain of arrows fell from the sky, but all they took away were the lives of their own archers, and the shadow demon was so depressed that he almost vomited blood.

White Horse Yicong is indeed an invincible cavalry army, even if it loses its riding and archery advantage, it can also exert unparalleled combat effectiveness in the field, the reason why the battle against Zhang Fan Tiebi will be so aggrieved, in fact, most of the reason is because it is not good at attacking the city, the place at the gate of the city is several times narrower than in the canyon, and the white horse Yicong, who was blocked in it after repeated fraud, could not exert his own strength at all, which led to the final defeat, if the two sides met in the wild, I'm afraid Zhang Fan's situation will not be much better than that of Shadow Demon!

Of course, these are just speculations, and it is unknown that Zhang Fan's miraculous operation may be able to turn the tide of the battle.

We won't talk about it for the time being, turning our eyes back to the battlefield, Bai Ma Yicong, who had avoided the rain of arrows, once again showed his might, the archers in front of them had just attacked, and they were opening their bows and arrows at the moment, without the slightest attack ability, how could Zhou Siyuan let go of this opportunity, led the army to slash and kill, and killed nearly half of the archers here in a short time.

However, at this time, the duration of the spear assault has finally arrived, and Bai Ma Yi suddenly took a break from the ferocious offensive, and the double attack and morale improvement effect ended, directly reducing the attack power and morale value by 35%, and the movement speed was reduced even more, reduced by nearly half!

It can be said that the overall combat capability of Baima Yicong has been reduced by more than three or five times in an instant!

The battle became difficult in an instant, the original offensive fell into a bottleneck, although the archers in front of them were still vulnerable, but trying to solve the battle in a short time has undoubtedly become a luxury, and now they are deeply encircled, the road ahead is boundless, and there is almost no hope!

"They can't do it! Give it to me! Give it to me! The heavy loss made the Shadow Demon become hysterical, and he continued to roar like a wounded beast, and although he didn't know why the cavalry had suddenly lost so much power, he still didn't want to miss the opportunity in front of him.

The shadow demon army from all directions quickly surrounded them, and the white horse Yicong also suffered casualties, they lost the speed they were proud of, they lost their unparalleled attack power, and their morale also reached an unprecedented low.

"I hurt everyone!" Zhou Siyuan looked around and said in a low voice, the words were extremely lonely, today's encounters made his confidence fall to the bottom, and a series of blows almost made him collapse, he felt that he was like a puppet pulling strings, being manipulated wantonly, and it was the name he had heard countless times today that he had heard these cotton threads: Storm and Clouds!

Turmoil!

The name is like a spell that lures him into the abyss step by step, leading him to the Jedi of death!

"That's it, I'm tired! Really tired! He looked at the white horse servants who were constantly falling off their horses around him, these former pride of heaven are now being trampled under the feet of a gang of miscellaneous soldiers, stepping on their proud hearts one after another, wanton insults, this qiē, he doesn't want to face, but he has to face it!

"Capture them alive!" Seeing that Bai Ma Yicong was gradually overwhelmed by the crowd, the shadow demon's eyes flashed, such a strong army, wouldn't he be sorry for himself if he didn't surrender? I'm even more sorry for the nearly 10,000 soldiers who died, and I'm sorry for the archers who were killed and wounded!

"Want to capture us alive? No way! There are only white horse servants who died in battle, and there are no white horse servants who are captured alive! Hearing the words of the shadow demon, Zhou Siyuan's eyes were blood-red, and he yelled angrily, but before he could finish roaring, a feather arrow came from a distance, hitting his right hand holding the gun, and the spear in his hand could no longer hold it, and it fell to the ground with a "bang", splashing a cloud of dust.

This spear, which had drunk countless blood, has finally lost its former glory!

Zhou Siyuan was taken aback, but before he could think about it, there were several knife and axe men around him who stepped forward in an instant and knocked him to the ground, I don't know if there was still some jealousy in his heart, these knife and axe men took the opportunity to stomp on his face with their boots a few times, and suddenly his face and the ground came into close contact, the spear was in front of him, but he was no longer able to take it, a few people tied his hands and feet, and he suffered the same as nearly a hundred white horse righteous servants, they cursed endlessly, not the slightest cowardice, just want to die quickly!

"Ahh Zhou Siyuan really fell into madness, his eyes were blood-red like blood, both cheeks were black, infinite wolf bèi, he screamed sadly: "I will be with you, incompatible!" ”
