This trick is very insidious, but it also has a fatal flaw, if the army formed by the new nobles does not cause enough losses to Lin Xiao, it will be defeated......

It was not difficult to do this, Lin Xiao immediately mobilized and set up an ambush on the path that the new aristocratic army must pass. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Since the number of people could not be too large, it was still a little difficult to defeat 5,000 people, so he simply sent the cavalry over, and it was convenient to support at that time.

Lin Xiao strictly blocked the news of these military operations, and he didn't know if he had any internal moles, but it was better to be careful.

……

……

The next day soon came, and an army appeared from the east, their clothing was not uniform, and some were even wearing the clothes of the farming season.

There were less than 500 soldiers in real armor.

In the center of the army, there are several ornate generals, and at the front is Darren, the leader of this army.

He was the only viscount among the new nobles, and had the highest prestige among the new nobles in Frost City, and it was easy to unite the scattered new nobles to form a crusade army.

You must know that they have become a laughing stock in high society, and if they don't regain their territory, I am afraid that they will not have the face to face those old nobles in the future.

Face is very important to them, not to mention that this time the enemy is menacing, if they are stabilized, it will be difficult to deal with.

And their news from the front that this group of enemies of unknown origin has powerful artillery, which is a great temptation.

Although the Kingdom of Middleearth has artillery, it is not many in number, and it is concentrated in the hands of the royal family.

If he could get these guns, Darren would be able to rise to the occasion.

As for the price to pay, Darren didn't care at all, these temporarily recruited cannon fodder were not worth mentioning in his eyes.

Darren looked coldly ahead, and soon a soldier ran over: "Report to Lord Viscount, ahead is Shituling." ”

"It's easy to ambush here, so send the order down to get the soldiers to pay attention." Darren ordered solemnly.

A baron on the side asked puzzledly, "Your Excellency Darren, there are up to 300 people in ambush in Shituling, do we need to be so careful?" ”

"Be careful." Darren smiled, not explaining.

At this time, arrows flew from the direction of Shituling, and many soldiers who had not had time to prepare were hit by arrows one after another.

"Enemy attack!"

The crusading army almost messed up, after all, it was a group of civilians who had never seen blood, and they couldn't help but be very frightened when they saw the tragic situation of others.

After stabilizing the scene, Darren found that the number of the other party was less than 300 people, and he immediately felt a sense of anger, so many people dared to come to ambush him, it was simply looking for death!

The soldiers, under the command of Darren, rushed out towards the stone and earth ridge, this time they did not bring many archers, plus the opponent was in a high place, and there was not much advantage in the shooting, so they could only let the cannon fodder charge first.

Among the ambushed soldiers, there were hundreds of longbowmen, occupying the favorable terrain and blocking the menacing enemy army at the foot of the mountain.

The militia that rushed up were the opponents of these regular troops, and they were pierced through their bodies one after another, which also frightened the follow-up militia.

When the militia was hesitating, the regular army of Central Earth behind them came up, and this time they were not the enemies of the other side, but these hesitant militiamen.

Several of the cowardly militiamen were killed on the spot, which also spurred the rest of the people, who had to rush forward in order to survive.

Even if the clone soldiers occupied the favorable terrain, they still couldn't withstand so many people, and they fought halfway to the top of the mountain.

Darren, who was at the foot of the mountain, looked at the battlefield and had some strange feelings, since the other party was going to ambush, he should not drive himself to death.

He was a little vigilant, and wanted to chase down the past soldiers to recall a unit, but these militiamen were already frightened, and they rushed forward with all their might, and they couldn't stop them.

When the two sides were inseparable, groups of cavalry came from the corner of the road below the mountain and rushed to the flank of the raiding army.

The terrain was flat and ideal for cavalry charges, and because the cavalry was coming so fast, the raiders waited less than 100 meters to realize that something was wrong.

But it was too late, half of the 5,000 troops were pinned down by the soldiers on the top of the mountain, and the cavalry was simply unimpeded.

The remaining militia at the foot of the mountain saw a large group of ironclad cavalry coming, and they dared to stop it, and they all scattered and fled.

Seeing these cavalry, Darren's face also changed, he had heard that the enemy cavalry this time was very powerful, and he just smiled every time.

Now that he has seen it with his own eyes, he knows how lonely he is.

A little shocked, Darren was even more angry, he didn't expect this group of militia to be so cowardly, and the enemy army was scared away before they came.

In any case, he did not have time to punish the deserters, so he hurriedly organized the soldiers and gathered together to set up swords and guns to defend against the cavalry.

To Darren's surprise, these cavalrymen actually collided with sharp knives and guns, and their faces did not change.

The result was a complete split, with nearly 20 cavalrymen killed on the spot in the blink of an eye, but they also used their corpses to break up the enemy's formation.

The follow-up cavalry was basically unhindered, tearing the enemy's formation in half, and many noble generals were trampled into meat before they had time to retreat.

The remaining soldiers in Middleland collapsed directly, and only a few noble generals were left to organize and put up stubborn resistance.

Delaying the time would be a disadvantage for the clone soldiers, who were too few in number, and it would be a tough battle to get them to react.

And the rest of the soldiers are mixed up, and if they are organized, it will not be easy to deal with.

"Lord Darren is dead!"

I don't know which soldier suddenly shouted like this, beside him, there was indeed a nobleman's corpse, and the clothes seemed to be worn by Darren.

Of course, Darren is not dead, and he is not having a good time now, falling off his horse and breaking his leg.

When he was helped up by his subordinates, he suddenly heard such a sentence, and spit out a mouthful of blood on the spot: "you, Uncle Ben is alive and well!" ”

The only people who knew that Darren was alive were the hundreds of soldiers around him, but the battlefield was too chaotic for anyone to be sure he was still alive.

The soldiers in Middle-earth might have been suspicious when they heard this, and when the militia heard it, and there were corpses as evidence, whether it was true or not, they didn't want to stay here anymore.

The main body of the crusading army is all militia, and their escape has also brought with them scattered soldiers who do not know the truth.

Without the help of the militia, the cavalry charged at the soldiers of Middleland who were still resisting, and these hundreds of soldiers could not resist the cavalry that was outnumbered by them.

With the last charge, Darren, as the supreme general, died under the iron hoof, and the soldiers who were still resisting finally broke down and fled in all directions.
