Chapter 64: The First Encounter
Fifty thousand iron horsemen galloped bravely, the speed became faster and faster, like bursts of thunder striking the earth, shaking the whole field; tens of thousands of war knives roared in the air, facing the light of the sky, and the killing intent of Ling Li bloomed to the fullest......
The distance of ten miles is an instant for the elite cavalry marching at full speed.
Although the army of the country had already lined up to defend, it was still a little caught off guard by all the cavalry of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry in an instant.
The spear formation that was defending in front of the army was charged with all the strength of the tiger and leopard cavalry, but as soon as the battle was engaged, it was scattered.
The 20,000 elite infantry who left the country were slaughtered in the blink of an eye, and the two tiger riders and wind and thunder who had red eyes and revenge were killed.
"Charge forward, go straight to the Chinese army!" Long Feihu's face was hideous, and his killing intent soared into the sky.
He led his horse in the air, and with a roar, his saber slashed through the air, and the blood-stained blade swept past the infantry who stopped him, bringing up a rush of blood.
Under the order of the commander, the two cavalry of the wind and thunder handed over the remaining remnants of the spear formation to the tiger and leopard cavalry infantry who followed, and charged forward again.
After strangling the infantry of the spear formation, the two divisions of the Leopard Cavalry Heaven and Earth extended their wings to both sides, blocking the thunder cavalry that rushed down from both sides of the camp leaving the country.
The troops who left the country were all heavy infantry.
In the face of the remaining strength of the tiger and leopard cavalry, the most elite cavalry, even if they stubbornly resisted, were gradually dispersed.
"Ying Yi, you kill my tiger and leopard to ride five elites, today, I Long Feihu want you to splash your blood on the battlefield to comfort my 60,000 warriors. ”
After Long Feihu broke through the formation of the heavy armored infantry of the country, the war knife galloped and roared in the air.
With his voice, a fiery red Thunder Flower banner slowly rose from the slope of the Great Camp Mountain in the distance.
A young man in white stood quietly under the banner, looking at the battlefield that had been fully connected, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and Chang Xiao responded: "General Long, what I want to win is the lives of your tiger and leopard cavalry 200,000 soldiers and the vast land of Chu, and you ...... I have never been in my eyes, you want my life, you can ...... As long as you can rush here, I'll give you the head of the self-cutting item. ”
He laughed, and his eyes became cold and piercing in an instant: "It's a pity that you will never have a chance." ”
The flag of the Thunder Flame Flower was unfurled in Ying Yi's hand, and it slashed into the air, far away from the east and west, behind the low hillside, the rolling thunder instantly shook the heavens and the earth.
The 50,000 elite cavalry of the thunder cavalry, which had been lying in ambush behind the hillside, rushed down the hillside with the momentum of thunder, galloped for more than ten miles, cut off the retreat of the tiger and leopard cavalry from the rear, and covered up the whole army of the tiger and leopard cavalry who were trapped in the battle formation of leaving the country.
Use the whole army as bait to lure the enemy deeper, and then encircle and strangle.
Under the leadership of Long Feihu, the entire tiger and leopard cavalry once again fell into the trap of the other party, pushing the entire tiger and leopard cavalry army into the abyss of annihilation.
Long Feihu's steel teeth clenched, looking at the rolling cavalry legion behind him, his eyes were about to split.
"General, retreat!" Shu Ye's long sword swept across the sword, killing more than a dozen heavily armored soldiers who were approaching, staring at Long Feihu and persuading, "Behind us are all lightly armored infantry, and we can't stop the Lei Cavalry from leaving the country." ”
The two divisions of the leopard cavalry heaven and earth guarding the two wings were also pinned down by the thunder cavalry attacking from the flank, and they could not return to the rear of the reinforcement formation at all; while the two tiger cavalry wind and thunder divisions, under the leadership of Long Feihu, had already been deeply trapped in the battle formation of heavy armored infantry and had no ability to maneuver.
If you don't retreat desperately, when all the elite main forces of the thunder cavalry come in, it will not be far from the annihilation of the whole army.
Long Feihu glared at Ying Yi, who was dressed in white on the hillside, even though he was extremely unwilling in his heart, he still looked up to the sky and shouted: "The whole army retreats and returns to the defense camp." ”
He led his horse to smash the body of the oncoming warrior in the air, and the saber slashed back like a whirlwind.
With his voice, the two divisions of the Tiger Cavalry, Wind and Thunder, which were scattered in the heavy armor battle array, also moved closer to him with all their might, forming a cavalry formation again and retreating quickly.
At the same time, the two shrinking fronts of the leopard riding heaven and earth, which guarded the two wings, also quickly moved closer to the tiger cavalry.
"Want to go?" Ying Yi, who was on the hillside in the distance, smiled coldly as he watched the tiger and leopard ride in motion.
He waved the flag again, and the attack of the thunder cavalry attacking the two parts of the leopard cavalry from both sides instantly became more intense, and the heavy armored infantry also instantly formed countless shield arrays, instantly blocking the path for the tiger cavalry to gather and retreat from all directions.
As long as he can hold back the reinforcements of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and wait for the Lei Cavalry behind him to annihilate the infantry behind Long Feihu, he can completely wipe out the entire Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and take the territory of Chu State.
The Tiger Rider and the Leopard Rider were under the full onslaught of the enemy, and they could not gather their troops all the way and retreated calmly, but after a while, they fell into a bitter battle again.
"General Long, you leave a thousand-strong team for me, let me break the back. Shu Ye's eyes skyrocketed, watching the situation on the entire battlefield change, and said to Long Feihu, "Otherwise, none of us will be able to get out." ”
"A team of thousands. Long Feihu looked at Shu Ye covered in blood, "Can you stop it?"
Shu Ye gritted his teeth and nodded, "Don't worry, it's just that those who stay are estimated to not survive." ”
"What about you?" Long Feihu's eyes were blazing.
"Leave it to fate!" Shu Ye stared at the departing army surging like a tide, and said, "The general doesn't have to hesitate, at this moment, there is no one more suitable than me to stay behind the broken army." ”
Long Feihu's heart sank, knowing that what Shu Ye said was the truth, he gritted his teeth and said solemnly: "I will give you 2,000 men and horses to support the main force of our cavalry when the thunder cavalry engages in the battle." ”
Shu Ye nodded, took the two thousand tiger riding wind department handed over to him by Long Feihu, and charged towards the torrent-like steel battle array behind him in the midst of the killing intent.
At the same time, all the cavalry of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry retreated desperately in the roar of the Dragon Flying Tiger, and completely handed over the two thousand troops led by Shu Ye to the army of leaving the country that was desperately biting him.
The light cavalry infantry reflexively forged a defensive line, desperately resisting the elite of the thunder cavalry who rushed to kill the country.
Throwing down the two thousand broken tiger and leopard cavalry in anger, quickly out of the bite of the army leaving the country, the leopard cavalry and the tiger cavalry combined forces, under the personal leadership of Long Feihu, rushed from the two wings of the infantry to the elite of the thunder cavalry.
In the entire land of Beiming, the two most powerful elite cavalry finally confronted each other, staining this southern frontier land with killing intent and blood.
No one retreated, and no one was afraid or retreated.
The war horse galloped rapidly, and the war knife passed through the body like a cold wind, and when it was slashed out, life and death were known.
This is the most tragic confrontation on the battlefield, because at the moment of the wrong body, you only have time to make a knife, either you die, or I die, there is no thinking, no aftermove, just the purest reaction of the body and the courage to not be afraid of death.
The sky trembled, and the blood flowed like a river!
When the cavalry corps of the two sides staggered their positions and separated again, the entire place of battle was already full of corpses and miserable.
"If you don't want the whole army of Lei Cavalry to be wiped out, let Lao Tzu get out of the way. On the four-foot blade of the dragon flying tiger saber, blood was constantly dripping, the war horse bent its hooves, and roared angrily in the sky, "Before the army behind rushes up, Lao Tzu can let you all lay in wait here." ”
He raised his blade, his eyes were blood-red, and he was full of earth-shattering murderous intent: "It's a big deal, everyone will die together, after you are completely annihilated, you will not be able to dominate the world when you leave the country." ”
The Thunder Cavalry Legion, located between the Tiger and Panther Cavalry and the infantry, waited in silence for the commander's answer.
Losing the first move, before the rear army attacked, the power of the tiger and leopard cavalry infantry and cavalry to flank the attack could indeed annihilate the entire elite of the thunder cavalry in an instant with a crushing victory.
"General Long is really a tiger general in the world. A silver-haired veteran put the heavy knife back into the sheath and retreated to the sides with all the thunder horses, making way for the tiger and leopard riders to retreat, "Childe still underestimates you after all." ”
"Leaving the country Jiang Hongxuan!" Long Feihu glared at him and said: "In the first confrontation, everyone's casualties are almost the same, let's meet again tomorrow." ”
With a sharp finger, the entire Tiger and Leopard Cavalry Infantry Legion retreated from the road that the other party had away, broke away from the Thunder Cavalry, and went straight to the base camp of Zhandao Gorge.
Long Feihu gritted his teeth and led the rest of the cavalry to retreat.
When he was out of danger, he sat on his war horse and looked back at the two thousand elites of the Tiger Cavalry Wind Division, who had long been swallowed up by the entire Departure Legion.
But I saw a sword across the void sky tearing through the sky, spanning the heavens and the earth, splashing blood all over the sky.
A young man fell to the ground in the air, covered in blood, holding a sword independent of the ten thousand armies, and with the power of a brilliant sword, he single-handedly blocked the entire army of departures.
Shu Ye's eyes were cold, his killing intent was fierce, independent of the wilderness, and he stared coldly at the army that had left the country a few feet away, the edge of his long sword flickered, and blood was constantly dripping.
The terrifying sword marks stood between him and the army of the country, like the boundary between life and death, separating the two sides.
The warriors who dared to cross the sword marks, whether cavalry or infantry, no matter how many people, all died in an instant.
The thick blood formed a trickle on the ground, slowly flowing under Shu Ye's feet and soaking into the earth; the dead corpses piled up like a mountain in front of the entire departing legion, hideous and full of countless fears; tens of thousands of war horses roared angrily, restless under the attack of the sharp sword qi......
As the most elite thunder riders in the country, they have never encountered such a situation, and they have never trusted one person, and dare to stand in front of the thunder riders alone, blocking the advance of the entire legion.
Today, however, at this time......
In the face of Shu Ye's strong swordsmanship and strength, the Departure Thunder Cavalry, who had lost his sharpness, was no longer able to charge.
"Tell Ying Yi that his head, I will take it tomorrow. Shu Ye's eyes burst with coldness, "If you don't want to die, before sunset today, withdraw your troops and leave the Chu State." ”
The long sword he condensed in front of him slashed the sky, and the sword swelled, cutting through the mountains of corpses, and slashing in front of the thunder horseman.
The dozens of thunder cavalry warriors who faced Shu Ye retreated in an instant under the torn sword, and once again opened the distance between them and Shu Ye.
Shu Ye sneered, turned around with his sword, jumped in the air, landed on the back of a war horse a few zhang away, and quickly ran towards the tiger and leopard cavalry camp in the distance.
