Chapter 54: Opponents

Meng Bai lowered his head in shame and rushed up the high slope.

He was covered in sweat, half cold sweat from the first round of arrows, half sweat of shame.

By the time he rushed up the high slope, the battle was over, and all the sergeants who ambushed them had already been killed.

He rushed behind Jiang Xiaoyi and Bian Linghan who were standing at the top of the slope, and thought slightly strangely about what Jiang Xiaoyi and Bian Linghan were doing here, but the moment he just raised his head, his whole person froze, and he sweated even more.

Blood and fire filled his sight.

......

Lin Xi, who was riding a war horse, also soon appeared on this high slope.

After hearing Bian Linghan's three arrows representing a full-speed rush, the entire Mirror Heaven Queen Army under his command formed an extremely fast torrent.

Because he was riding the best war horse in the entire Mirror Heaven Queen's army, he was fifty or sixty paces ahead of the cavalry behind him, and he was the first to rush to this high slope.

At the moment when he saw the vision clearly, Lin Xi's brows also wrinkled deeply, and some fine beads of sweat appeared in his palms because of nervousness.

In front of this high slope, an empty meadow, only two or three miles away, has become a battlefield strewn with corpses.

The plain, which was originally covered with dense grass, has been impacted and crushed into countless clear ravines, and in an area with a radius of only a few miles, there are at least thousands of corpses lying there, probably because of the need to distinguish the relationship between the enemy and the enemy during the battle, this area is full of discarded torches and other ignition materials, under the cluster of firelight, the blood that fills the ground and the arrows, blades and other things inserted in the dense corpses look even more shocking.

At this moment, there were still hundreds of people on both sides of the battle, one side was on the battlefield covered with corpses, and the other was directly opposite Lin Xi and the others, about 800 steps away from the battlefield, under a hilly slope.

It should have been the time when the two armies were strangled and separated and were temporarily deadlocked, so Jiang Xiaoyi, Bian Linghan and the others never noticed any fighting, and they rushed to this slope only to find this scene of iron and fire.

Lin Xi was nervous.

There was no way for him not to be nervous, because although he had experienced a lot of killing formations in the Dragon and Snake Border Army, even against the cave barbarian brigade of hundreds of people, in fact, it was mainly based on his single rush and killing, and it was still mainly a battle between cultivators, and this kind of strangulation of thousands of dead and wounded military formations, he was also facing it for the first time in person.

This scene of two armies fighting, corpses on the ground, and rivers of blood flowing, had a great impact on his mind.

"It's a friendly army. ”

Gao Yanan also arrived at Lin Xi's side and quickly said these three words to Lin Xi.

Lin Xi nodded, and began to calm down quickly, with the help of a brass eagle eye in his hand, although he couldn't see the specific faces of the soldiers on both sides in the night, he could see a golden dragon flag fluttering in the army that stayed on the battlefield covered with corpses, and more than ten cyan military flags representing the Biluo border army in the other army.

At this moment, the military flag erected in the army of the Queen of Mirrors behind Lin Xi is also the golden dragon flag representing the imperial city of Zhongzhou.

At this moment, Lin Xi's gaze was suddenly cold again.

On the hills behind the army with the blue flag fluttering, a black tide suddenly appeared, the blue flag was rolling, the sound of gold and iron was ringing, and a light armored cavalry army of at least five hundred or more was pouring down towards this meadow.

At the same time, a faintly audible sound of terrible military orders also sounded in the waiting Biluo border army, waiting for this lightly armored cavalry army to unite and prepare to charge and kill with all its strength again.

"Why don't the friendly troops retreat to us?" Looking at the lightly armored cavalry surging down from all over the mountains, Bian Linghan raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "They should have also discovered our arrival, and they should know that if they retreat to us, we will rely on the terrain to rush down, and we will have a better chance of winning." ”

"The ballista... They didn't want to give up these mountain ballistas. Lin Xi had completely calmed down and explained this sentence softly to Bian Linghan.

Immediately after, an extremely solemn and cold military order rushed out of his mouth firmly: "Seven hundred light horses, Hou!"

Bian Linghan turned her head to look at Lin Xi, who gave the order, and under Lin Xi's reminder of a word, she had also noticed nearly twenty ballistae in that friendly army.

The crossbow is the most powerful crossbow machine in the Yun Qin army, and the crossbow is exactly the same as the city defense crossbow, it can shoot three crossbow arrows at a time, each crossbow arrow has the thickness of a child's arm, and the range can reach an astonishing 1,500 steps, and its terrifying power penetrates the bodies of more than ten sergeants in a straight line with extreme ease.

It's just that this kind of powerful ordnance, which relies on the inner hinges and bar steel rings, weighs more than 1,000 catties, and it is a huge steel monster, which is pulled by a war horse, and it is impossible to move fast.

The construction of this kind of crossbow is very laborious and expensive, and the number of equipment in the army is not very large, twenty is already the possession of the local army of a city in peacetime, and the crossbow is not only powerful to fire, but also has a more powerful deterrent effect on the enemy, because even ordinary cultivators cannot resist it at all.

Now the entire Jingtianhou Army is only equipped with two mountain-piercing ballistae and two spin-blade vehicles, and these twenty mountain-piercing ballistae are naturally of great significance to the Jingtianhou Army, but at this moment, Bian Linghan was very puzzled by the military order that Lin Xi issued only a military order for the light cavalry army to prepare for an assault, not a military order for the whole army or the light cavalry army and the heavy cavalry army to raid together.

Because the light armored cavalry and the light cavalry are completely two different concepts.

Yun Qin's light armor army is all equipped with chain metal armor, and the soldiers who can wear this kind of heavy metal armor between leather armor and heavy armor are usually trained more rigorously, and the protection of the metal armor on their bodies, their own strength and endurance, are far more than that of the light cavalry army who only wears thick leather armor.

Therefore, at this moment, although the number of seven hundred light cavalry seems to exceed that of the opponent, it is definitely still inferior to the opponent in terms of combat power.

"Why don't you assault the whole army?" Gao Yanan obviously thought of this, and asked Lin Xi softly.

"Although the previous ambush here should have been only a reconnaissance team, the enemy must have discovered our arrival, and since the enemy has found out and dared to rush like this, it means that it may not be this military strength... So I think it's safer to smash my strength here where I occupy the terrain, and I just need mobile troops to test the waters. Lin Xi said softly: "If we want more people on our side to live, we will rush faster later... Our advantage is that we have a lot of practitioners. ”

"Left Team!"

Seeing that the light armored army in the distance and the remnants of the original Biluo border army finally met together, a military order came out of Lin Xi's mouth again.

In the team led by Lin Xi to take over the Mirror Heavenly Queen Army, there were a total of twenty-three cultivators, plus three cultivators including Qiu Zhenghu in the Mirror Heavenly Queen Army, there were as many as twenty-six cultivators in total.

Because he had formed a certain tacit understanding with Tu Heihu and others, Lin Xi listed the characters among the original ten wolves who followed him all the way into the left team, and the rest of the original Gao Yanan was listed as the right team all the way, but at Gao Yanan's insistent request, Gao Yanan also joined their left team.

At this moment, the right team is led by a war-hardened general like Bai Yulou, and An Keyi is guarding the town, Lin Xi knows that after the next rush begins, no matter how many backmoves the enemy has, at least this high slope will become a solid backing for him.

"Tu Heihu, you are in charge of protecting the flag. Lin Xi turned his head to Tu Heihu and ordered.

In the cavalry rush, the military flag is very important, the front military flag is in the direction, and the cavalry in the rear can intuitively follow the charge in this direction for the first time.

Tu Heihu has always been by Bian Linghan's side, he had heard the conversation between Lin Xi and Bian Linghan and the others clearly, he had not made the slightest sound before, and at this moment he understood that Lin Xi was about to lead the team to kill, he nodded and received the order, but said softly: "Lord Lin can call me Meng Su." ”

Lin Xi was slightly stunned, and immediately knew that this was the real name of his subordinate.

"Pudong Mountain works for adults. The coyote Deng Shucheng, who had the appearance of a cropper, bowed to Lin Xi.

"Liu Zhangqing works for adults. The original bantam wolf returned to Pu and bowed to Lin Xi.

"Sun Cuixiu serves the adults. The gray-haired old woman Granny Wolf bowed to Lin Xi.

"For Yun Qin. ”

is a little inexplicable, I don't know if it is to boost morale, or because of the atmosphere of these people solemnly saluting themselves, Lin Xi solemnly returned the salute and blurted out this sentence.

"For Yun Qin!"

But his sentence had just come out, and the four cultivators, Jiang Xiaoyi, Bian Linghan and the others had already let out a heaven-shattering shout.

The 700 cavalry behind him itself regarded battle as instinct, and the Biluo border army that was the best at fighting in the world, at this moment, when they knew that the commander was about to take the lead in rushing to kill, these soldiers also let out an earth-shattering roar at the same time.

"Kill!"

Lin Xi's fist was raised high, and as he swung it heavily, the war horse under him neighed, and rushed forward like an arrow.

"Boom!"

Countless iron hooves pounded the ground sharply, splashing countless grass clippings and dirt.

The rest of the Jingtian Army firmly obeyed Lin Xi's orders, staying on the high slope and not moving, all of these people, except for An Keyi, the rest had complicated expressions.

Especially the gaze of those ordinary sergeants is more complicated.

The spirit priests are all cultivators who calm the morale of the co-ordinatory, and their strength comes from the demon beasts of influence. When had these soldiers seen a priest with a terrifying bow on his back, or a priest who was at the forefront of the slaughter?

......

"This is the Mirror Queen Army, who is now in command of this army, I don't know who it is... It's a good opponent. ”

Just as Lin Xi led the seven hundred light cavalry army to turn into a torrent and rush down, on the top of the hill that the light armored army on the opposite side had crossed, a general holding a brass eagle eye, wearing ordinary black armor, but wearing a cloak, whispered to himself.

This eagle-nosed, cold-faced general of the Biluo Border Army condescendingly surveyed the battle situation like an eagle falcon, and several generals stood behind him, and on the hilly slope behind him, there was still a large army of black press.
