Chapter 631: Defeat the Grassland Army
"Young master, should we take advantage of the unstable foothold of the grassland army to attack it at night and defeat it in one fell swoop!"
After the sky darkened, Yang Ping came to Yang Rui's side and asked softly.
"No, the steppe army is strong and powerful, and if we attack it at night, it will be easy to be ambushed by it, so we still have to defend the city wall honestly!"
Our task is very simple, that is, to drag this steppe cavalry so that it cannot go to Sunset City! As long as this steppe cavalry cannot support Sunset City, we have made a great achievement, and we do not necessarily have to defeat these steppe cavalry!
At the same time, our biggest reliance now is the city wall of Qingyun Town, and our hidden crossbow bed crossbow and other defensive weapons, once the grassland cavalry launches a strong attack on our Qingyun Town, then we can use the city wall and defensive weapons to inflict heavy damage on the grassland cavalry, and at that time we are taking the initiative to attack and defeat the grassland cavalry in one fell swoop!"
Hearing Yang Ping's words, Yang Rui shook his head lightly and said.
Hearing Yang Rui's words, Yang Ping nodded lightly, indicating that he understood.
"Lord Commander, the Yang family army did not take the opportunity to attack the camp, should we start to attack Qingyun Town!"
When the sky began to slowly brighten, Hu Ming, the deputy commander of the grassland cavalry, said to Xiong Hai, the commander of the grassland cavalry, with a helpless expression.
"Order the army to repair for three days, and not attack the city for the time being!" Xiong Hai pondered for a moment and said with a calm face.
"Yes, Lord Commander!" Hu Ming replied loudly, and passed on Xiong Hai's order.
In the next few days, the 100,000 grassland cavalry did not move in the camp, without the slightest intention of attacking the city, and the Yang family army in Qingyun Town, under Yang Rui's order, was unmoved, holding the city wall, and had no intention of going out of the city to fight.
When the 100,000 grassland cavalry and the Yang family army confronted each other in Qingyun Town, the main army of the grassland tribe, under the leadership of the grassland king, and the Zhao army led by Zhao Kun, the county guard of Sunset County, took Sunset City as the center and launched a fierce confrontation.
The main army of the grassland and the elite army of Zhao State fought a draw near Sunset City, which made the King of the Grassland very angry, and immediately sent a messenger to Qingyun Town, so that Xiong Hai could capture Qingyun Town as soon as possible, and then rush to Sunset City to assist in the attack on Sunset City.
Under this evenly matched situation, with an extra 100,000 elite grassland cavalry, the grassland king had seven layers of certainty to defeat the Zhao army and attack Sunset City, so the grassland king directly ordered Xiong Hai to capture Qingyun Town as soon as possible, and then return to Sunset City with 100,000 grassland cavalry.
Xiong Hai, who received the order of the grassland king, although he was unwilling to use the grassland cavalry under his command to attack the city, he could only bite the bullet and ordered to build some siege equipment, so that the cavalry under his command dismounted, holding shields, carrying ladders, pushing siege hammers and other siege tools, and launched an attack on Qingyun Town.
"It's finally here!"
Looking at the grassland cavalry approaching quickly, the corners of Yang Rui's mouth showed a faint smile, and he muttered softly.
In Yang Rui's muttering, more than 20,000 grassland cavalry vanguard troops slowly entered the range of the defenders of Qingyun Town, and a famous soldier defending the city drew their bows like a full moon, and poured sharp arrows towards the grassland cavalry besieging the city, killing a famous grassland cavalry mercilessly.
It's just that most of the grassland cavalry are wearing big shields, and the lethality of arrows is limited, and most of the grassland cavalry have successfully approached the city wall of Qingyun Town, and began to erect cloud ladders to climb towards the city wall of Qingyun Town.
Seeing this scene, the Yang family army on the city wall immediately poured down the defensive weapons such as rolling stones, rolling wood, and hot oil that had been prepared one by one, and bombarded a famous grassland cavalry to death.
"The whole army will attack and capture Qingyun Town in one fell swoop!"
Xiong Hai, the leader of the grassland cavalry sitting in the rear, saw that his army had successfully attacked the city wall of Qingyun Town, and some soldiers even climbed the city wall and began to fight fiercely with the Yang family army on the city wall.
Immediately afterwards, the 70,000 grassland cavalry in the rear dismounted, holding scimitars, and let out a shocking shouting sound, and rushed straight to the direction of the city wall of Qingyun Town, preparing to kill Qingyun Town in one fell swoop, kill the Yang family's army, and plunder the wealth of Qingyun Town.
"Don't stay behind, attack with all your might!"
Seeing that all the grassland cavalry moved, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Yang Rui's mouth, a look of expectation flashed in his eyes, and he ordered softly.
Immediately afterwards, I saw that the bed crossbows were lifted off the black cloth, and the huge crossbow arrows shot out in a crisp sound, slashing through the void like lightning, easily piercing through the big shields, and shooting a famous steppe cavalryman.
At the same time, one by one, the crossbow arrays were pushed out, and one after another crossbow arrows shot out from the crossbow array, forming a dense rain of arrows, and shooting towards the steppe cavalry under the city wall.
The number of crossbow arrays is as high as more than 1,000, and in less than a minute, hundreds of thousands of crossbow arrows were fired, forming a dense rain of arrows without dead ends in all directions, and the grassland cavalry under the city wall was instantly pierced by countless arrows, blood splashed, and a terrible scream was issued, becoming a broken corpse.
In a matter of moments, tens of thousands of grassland cavalry died tragically on the spot, and within a kilometer of the city wall of Qingyun Town, there was not a single standing grassland cavalry, all of them turned into hedgehogs.
"How is this possible!How could Qingyun Town send out such a dense rain of arrows!"
Seeing that tens of thousands of elite soldiers on their side, in the blink of an eye, were annihilated by the dense rain of arrows, and none of them survived, which made Xiong Hai's eyes flash with horror, and he couldn't believe the facts in front of him at all.
When Xiong Hai was frightened, the more than 50,000 grassland cavalry in the rear, who were originally fierce and killed Qingyun Town, saw the miserable appearance of their companions in front of them, and they let out a frightened roar one after another, and immediately wanted to turn around and flee to the rear.
It's just that the steppe cavalry has begun to charge, and the steppe cavalry in front wants to turn around and escape, but the steppe cavalry behind continues to rush forward, and the two sides immediately collide and fall together, making the formation of the steppe cavalry chaotic.
At this moment, the defenders on the city wall of Qingyun Town took out the hand * crossbow on their waists, aimed at the hundreds of grassland cavalry on the city wall, and shot them mercilessly, and then quickly adjusted the direction of the crossbow of a door bed, and poured a long crossbow arrow into the body of the grassland cavalry, and shot a famous grassland cavalry mercilessly.
"The army charges with me!"
At the same time, the city gate of Qingyun Town was wide open, and more than 10,000 elites of the Yang family's army, under the leadership of Yang Rui, rode black-scaled horses and charged straight in the direction of the grassland cavalry.
Kill, kill, kill!
In the midst of the earth-shattering shouts of killing, more than 10,000 elite Yang family soldiers rode black-scaled horses, quickly crossed the distance of thousands of meters, and killed near the chaotic grassland cavalry.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
With the crisp sound of breaking the air, sharp crossbow arrows, with the whistling sound of the wind, pierced the body of a famous steppe cavalryman, making it a broken corpse.
Immediately afterwards, more than 10,000 Yang soldiers entered the grassland cavalry group, brandished sharp long knives, and slashed down at the body of the grassland cavalry, mercilessly killing a famous grassland cavalry.
At this time, the grassland cavalry was in chaos, and without the assistance of war horses and the command of officers, their combat effectiveness was sharply reduced, and they directly became the target of slaughter, and were frantically slaughtered by the Yang family's army.
"Yang Rui, you damn it!"
Seeing that his army was pressed and beaten by the Yang family's army, and even slaughtered madly, Xiong Hai's eyes in the rear were full of anger, and with a shout, he raised the scimitar in his hand, and with more than 100 guards around him, he charged straight towards Yang Rui's side.
"Rain of arrows!"
Facing the charging Xiong Hai, Yang Rui's expression remained unchanged, and he said in a flat tone.
As soon as Yang Rui's voice fell, more than 500 of Yang Rui's personal soldiers raised their crossbows one after another, aimed at Xiong Hai and the others, pulled the trigger, and one by one sharp arrows, with the sound of the howling wind, shot towards Xiong Hai and his personal soldiers.
Bang! Bang!
In the crisp sound of metal colliding, Xiong Hai and more than 100 of his guards waved the scimitars in their hands one after another, knocking arrows away one after another, making it impossible to damage them.
Xiong Hai is a tenth-order warrior, and the personal soldiers around him have at least the cultivation strength of a sixth-order warrior, and a short rain of arrows can't hurt them at all.
"Kill!"
Seeing this scene, Yang Rui's expression remained unchanged, and with a light shout, he urged the war horse under him to meet Xiong Hai directly.
"Kill, kill, kill!"
The five hundred Yang family guards roared angrily, waved the big knife in their hands, followed behind Yang Rui, and greeted Xiong Hai and his personal guards.
Five hundred Yang family guards, under Yang Rui's cultivation at any cost, at least have the cultivation strength of seventh-order warriors, of which there are more than 100 eighth-order warriors, and there are more than ten ninth-order warriors, and they are not afraid of Xiong Hai's personal guards at all.
"Ninefold Thunder Knife!"
When Yang Rui was still dozens of meters away from Xiong Hai, he roared angrily, the strength in his body surged, and the nine-fold thunder knife unfolded, and the sharp long knife in his hand slashed through the void like lightning and slashed towards Xiong Hai's body.
"Die!"
At the same time, Xiong Hai roared angrily, the strength in his body surged, and the scimitar in his hand flickered, turning into a streamer, and slashed towards Yang Rui's body, ready to kill Yang Rui on the spot.
Bang!
In a crisp sound of metal collision, the sharp long knife in Yang Rui's hand and Xiong Hai's scimitar collided together, like a knife cutting tofu, easily cutting Xiong Hai's scimitar, and unabated to cut Xiong Hai's armor, cutting his body in two, causing blood to splash and fall to the ground, becoming a broken corpse, his eyes were wide open, and he couldn't believe that he, a tenth-order warrior, was actually killed by Yang Rui with a knife.
"Lord Commander!"
"The Commander is dead, we must avenge the Commander!"
"Kill him and avenge the Commander!"
“、、、、”
Seeing Xiong Hai being killed by Yang Rui with a knife, Xiong Hai's more than 100 personal guards changed their faces one after another, a crazy color flashed in their eyes, urging the war horses under them, and charging straight towards Yang Rui's side, a picture of not killing Yang Rui and vowing not to give up.
In the face of the charge of more than 100 guards in Xiong Hai, Yang Rui's expression remained unchanged, he raised the long knife in his hand, and went straight to meet Xiong Hai's personal guards.
At the same time, five hundred Yang family guards rushed to the scene, brandished the long knives in their hands, and launched an attack on Xiong Hai's guards, mercilessly killing them, turning them into a mutilated corpse.
