Volume 1 Burning Chapter 181 Cavalry Power
Wang Dingbei's goal was very clear and direct, his sword fell, and the sword qi directly pounced on the war horse left by the fleeing cavalry, and at such a close distance, the sword qi directly cut a huge hole in the neck of the war horse.
The war horse lost any consciousness before it even had time to scream, and was directly cut down on the ground, its neck crooked to the side, only to find that the war horse's neck had been cut off more than half, and blood gushed upwards like underground springs.
This blow was clean and neat, and after Wang Dingbei succeeded, he transformed the golden bell jar into a shadow and pounced on the leading cavalry like a gust of wind.
For a while, the sound of collision continued to sound, and two golden halos continued to emerge from each other.
Without the splendor of magic and the beauty of swordsmanship, Wang Dingbei and the leader are competing for strength in this battle, and the fight is just who can hold on to the end.
Most of the western part of the village has been caught in flames, the sleeping old man was swallowed before he had time to react, the frail child wandered helplessly in the dirt, Gongsun Jin and others rushed over to move the injured to a safe place, and began to organize the villagers to extinguish the fire.
There were not a few people who were naked, and now they didn't care about any shame, and they followed the villagers who came to help them to run into the village.
Seeing this, Wang Lao unequivocally took off his coat and draped it over to a naked village woman, the man said that he was used to being naked, but women must not be so swaying!
In this way, under the call of Wang Lao, the villagers who rushed over took off their coats and jackets one after another, and gave priority to the big village women and little daughters-in-law. Then pick up the basin and bucket and rush to the fire.
In the dark of the night, under the faint moonlight, you can see something vaguely, but most of the villagers have always lacked food and clothing, let alone any nutrition, and basically can't see anything at night, not that they suffer from any night blindness.
After Zhang Li led a group of villagers to rush to the outside of the village, there was basically no shadow of the cavalry anymore, and the torches held high could only illuminate the general range of the surroundings, and it was dark in the distance.
At this moment, there was a sound of horses' hooves on the right behind him.
"Over there! Stop them!" Zhang Li threw the torch hard at the place where the sound came from, and the torch flipped in mid-air and pulled out a bright throwing arc, lighting up the place where the torch passed, and at the end of the flash, Zhang Li vaguely saw about 7 or 8 cavalry rushing over.
I didn't expect that in addition to the cavalry that ran away, there was such a cadre of cavalry in the rear, although the tension had not gone through a large-scale war, nor had it formally confronted the cavalry, but at least the common sense was still there, the cavalry rushed over, the speed was very fast, and these villagers, who were not even infantry, would definitely be knocked away once they came into contact with the cavalry, and it was almost impossible for them to kill the war horse or the people on the war horse!
No one else has the courage to do this, even if they rush forward and kill the cavalry in front, what about the behind?
Just seeing these tall cavalry roaring like a black wind has already caused most of the villagers to tremble in their hearts, not to mention what kind of weapons the villagers hold? Spears made of wood, even the spear head is made of sharp bamboo, and some villagers are holding sticks and bamboo poles, and the more powerful "weapon" is a hoe.
Therefore, Zhang Li is not arrogant that he can easily intercept the 7 or 8 cavalry on the opposite side with his dozens of people, and as for killing them all, he didn't even think about it.
"Throw, smash the guy in your hand, and smash it at those dog offal!" Zhang Li shouted hoarsely when he saw that some of the villagers were already preparing to collapse in all directions.
This cry of tension is the best way to deal with the current situation. For these villagers, it is like a terrifying demonic beast rushing towards them, although it will not cause any harm to smash the things in their hands into the demonic beast, but they will be psychologically much more relieved.
The 10 black cavalry obviously underestimated the power of these villagers, and thought of charging over and knocking them down, and then the cavalry who ran did not expect so many throws to fly over.
In the army, the effective damage of the javelins thrown by the grenadiers was only about 30 paces, but the villagers had no orders and common sense to speak of, and as soon as they heard the tension shout, they threw away the sticks and hoes in their hands.
The miscellaneous things fell sparsely in front of the cavalry, and they didn't touch any cavalry at all, so the damage really surprised Zhang Li.
However, this is only the first wave, not all the villagers can throw out the things in their hands at the first time, and the sparse "weapons" still fall to the ground like "rain".
The black cavalry plunged headlong into the "rain", if they stood still, the damage of those thrown things would not cause much damage, but the powerful impact of the cavalry directly hit the "weapon" thrown by the villager, which was embarrassing, and the two unlucky cavalrymen were instantly smashed in the face and fell to the ground, with a crisp sound of bones, the body did not move after rolling for several meters.
The black cavalry with two swords on their waists rushed to the villagers in an instant, and after throwing the weapons in their hands, the villagers were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, and they covered their heads with their hands in horror to resist the cavalry rushing over.
This action will not save the villagers, but it is the only resistance the villagers can do.
Two sabers hung upside down on both sides of the black cavalry's waist, and their hands were placed on the hilt, and the two knives were unsheathed, and the two villagers were beheaded in different places with the reverse knife!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The war horse crashed into the human body and made a dull sound, and the villagers instantly exploded, screaming and running towards the surrounding dark places, how could they have the courage to confront the fierce cavalry!
"Come back with the fuck!" Zhang Li rolled sideways on the ground to avoid the sharp knife attack of the cavalry, and stood in place and shouted loudly, Zhang Li did not expect to leave these cavalry behind, but he didn't expect these villagers to be so cowardly, just a charge and fled, looking at the embarrassed villagers who were jumping around, the tension was deep and there was a feeling of heavy hatred that iron could not be made of steel.
The remaining 8 cavalry scattered dozens of villagers with a single charge, and the tension that could stay in place and remain calm was only a dozen people, and this was really not enough for the cavalry to charge in a wave.
"Captain Zhang, what should I do?" Zhang Li's teeth began to tremble in the teeth of a villager beside him, and Zhang Li could hear the rattling sound made by the villager.
The remaining eight horsemen had stopped on the opposite side, turned their horses, and rearranged their formations, the torches scattered on the ground were the only source of light in this small area, and the flames swayed back and forth irregularly with the breeze.
Under the light of the fire, Zhang Li vaguely saw the cavalry on the opposite side that was nearly 2.5 meters high, and the heavy hooves of the horses kept pedaling in place, making a thumping sound, and the sound hit Zhang Li's heart again and again, and Zhang Li felt that his breathing became more and more rapid.
The black cavalryman couldn't see his cheeks clearly, his sabers tilted to the sides, and the bright red blood droplets kept falling down with the tips of the swords, and the villagers who were lying on the ground groaning let out a burst of wails.
Now Zhang Li very much wants to escape as soon as possible and stay away from this place of right and wrong, but he doesn't dare to put this idea into action. The cavalry didn't give Zhang Zhang too much time to think, and with his crotch exerted, the war horse rushed over like an arrow from the string!
Fear to the extreme is fearlessness, and now more than a dozen villagers with nervous collapse have reached the brink of collapse.
"Charge! Avenge the villagers!" Zhang Zhang felt that he had used the last strength of his life to roar, and the voice he made had become trembling, and when he heard Zhang Li's heart-rending roar, more than a dozen villagers seemed to have found an outlet to vent, and released the fear that was crowded on their nerves, like a wild beast roaring, roaring and pounced on the cavalry with his bare hands.
This is undoubtedly a send-off!
"Die or die! I should have starved to death a long time ago!" Zhang Li had no idea after this sentence flashed in his mind, and only the black cavalry on the opposite side were in his eyes.
The cavalry leader, with his sword in his right hand, swung it to the left, and the entire cavalry team changed direction to the left a hundred paces away from the tension of the desperate charge, rushing in the direction from which it came.
Two of the horsemen held their horses in their left hands, their whole bodies hanging on the right side of the horses, the speed of the horses only slowed down slightly, and the two knights grabbed the two bodies that had been accidentally hit by the villagers with their right hands, and one turned sideways onto the horse, carrying the corpse on the horse and hurrying forward.
The eight cavalrymen made a detour to the left in the front direction and disappeared into the night.
Zhang Li stared at the scene in front of him incredulously, the weather at night was very cool, but Zhang Li and the dozen or so villagers were all sweating, and the hair on the whole head seemed to have been washed with water, dripping with sweat downward.
Finally, some of the villagers ran out of strength, and their feet trembled and collapsed on the ground, their faces pale and panting weakly.
Zhang Li didn't understand why those cavalrymen didn't rush over to his own people, and then took away the corpses of his comrades, maybe his own people were not qualified to be enemies with them! But at least now that he was alive, Zhang Li could only soothe his heart that was still trembling until now.
The fire had been burning for nearly an hour, and all the villagers who could still move joined the firefighting team, and all the pots and pans that could hold water were taken out by the villagers, loaded with water and transported to the fire.
The two wells in the village were full of villagers waiting to receive water, and a steady stream of water from the wells was passed among thousands of villagers, directly to the place where the fire broke out.
But these water sources are far from enough! They can only control the spread of the fire to the surrounding areas, and the villagers can only watch the houses that have already caught fire slowly burn and then collapse with a bang!
Gongsun Jin, Wang Lao stood helplessly outside the firelight, quietly watching how many days and nights of hard work to build up hope slowly burned down, this feeling is like a knife in his heart.
"Oh my God, why is that......! Ah!" Gongsun Jin raised his hands in the air as if he had lost his mind, and then knelt on his knees weakly in front of the collapsed house, his face painful, and he began to cry.
Wang Lao, who has experienced how many life and death clutches, how many winds and waves, can't help but feel that his eyes are a little moist, and the villagers who came to fight the fire couldn't help but choke at this time, but his hands still kept doing mechanical transmission work, and the water source in his hands was constantly handed to the hands of the people in front of him.
