Chapter 157: The Battlefield
Xiao Yu didn't have much time, and two days later, the war came as scheduled.
As soon as the day dawned, the whole camp came to life.
The sound of horses' hooves, snorts, neighings, and footsteps mixed together, and the cavalry began to line up and leave the camp.
At this time, you can tell the difference between the veteran and the new pawn at a glance, the new pawn's face is often frightened, scared or excited, but the old pawn only has a calm indifference.
Calmly mounted his horse, checked his scimitar and bow, and then went out of camp with the procession.
A whimpering horn sounded.
A cloud of smoke and dust appeared from the direction of the skyline, and then the entire earth began to tremble slightly, and Xiao Yu could even see a small pebble under his feet beating gently.
Xiao Yu turned to the side of the battlefield and strode forward.
Behind him were more than a hundred Void Netherworld Realm cultivators, following Xiao Yu's footsteps, silent.
Countless cavalry jumped out of the smoke and dust like a black cloud, with more than 10,000 people, boundless. 40,000 plus mounts. This is comparable to the power of nature, the so-called man will conquer the sky, not one person, but a million.
Xiao Yu raised his head and said, "It is said that Lu Shixing and Shen Dongzan have worked together before. ”
Qiu Yue walked behind him and said calmly, "Each for his own master." ”
Lu Shixing personally led nearly 40,000 iron horsemen to the royal court, and today he fought to the death with the Kolko Department.
He just relied on his numerical superiority and wanted to kill Kolko with his life.
The rangers on both sides have begun to make continuous moves, constantly feeding back the military situation to the rear.
Lu Shixing stood tall on his horse, quietly listening to the news from the scout from the front. Beside him was Gongsun Zhongmou, at this moment, the head disciple of the Sword Sect had a very calm face, and he did not look at the scene of the 40,000 army rushing, but was silent, as if he was pondering something. Behind him were more than a hundred Void Netherworld Realm cultivators.
The tribal leader, who had lost eight thousand cavalry, swung his scimitar fiercely and sneered, "This time, we must step on the Kolko Department and trample the cultivators of the Dao Sect of Nalaoshzi into pulp!"
Gongsun Zhongmou frowned invisibly.
Throughout the ages, there are countless examples of winning more with less, and Gongsun Zhongmou doesn't think it's so easy to clean up the Kolko Department. If there are more people and you can win, then simply don't fight, it's better to directly compare who has more people.
The two armies confronted each other, and Xiao Yu handed over a hundred cultivators to Qiu Yue, carried Tianlan alone, and followed behind Shen Dongzan.
Shin Dongzan had a scimitar pinned to his waist, and the golden blade was inlaid with large rubies. It's just that how many people can be hacked to death with such a scimitar remains to be considered.
I don't know if it's because Shen Dongzan and Lu Shixing, two old friends, are particularly familiar with each other, and the two armies charged almost at the same time.
Although the grassland in front of the Kolko Department was vast enough, it was still not enough for 40,000 cavalry to charge together, so it could only pour out in batches in order.
The 5,000 cavalry at the head of the Kolko Department roared strangely and rushed towards the oncoming 5,000 cavalry.
A roar of slaughter rang out in the air, and two rains of arrows flew out of the cavalry camps on both sides, and then fell on the opposite side.
After a dull thud, the cavalry rushing forward on both sides fell almost like wheat harvesting.
But the follow-up cavalry did not stop at all, and the two torrents still surged towards the opposite side, and then merged together, converging into a huge whirlpool. A meat grinder-like whirlpool.
The horse's hooves are like thunder, and the smoke covers the sky.
To Xiao Yu's surprise, after each of the five thousand people, Shen Dongzan, the old fox, actually followed behind and went into battle in person.
Shin Dongzan immediately took 4,000 people with horizontal swords.
In front, two cavalry armies of 10,000 were frantically tearing and killing,
For now, the cavalry of the Kolko Department still has the upper hand. After all, Huang Hanji Corko and the other four divisions are similar to the existence of the border army, and they are naturally more brave than the royal cavalry who have not fought for a long time, and there is also a bit of evil spirit tempered between life and death.
A cavalryman from the Kolko Department brandished a scimitar and slashed into the chest of the royal court cavalry in front of him, but before he could draw his scimitar, another royal court cavalryman who had just caught up slashed at the head. He tilted his body and fell off his horse, and was instantly drowned by the hooves of the horse that followed, and the steed without its master looked particularly dazed.
The royal cavalry who had just hacked an enemy to death was about to continue to rush forward, but a Kolko cavalry from behind seized the opportunity, and a knife opened a big hole in his back, and the Kolko cavalry withdrew his scimitar, and just wanted to cut off his head, but he suddenly fell on the horse's back, dodging a cold arrow flying from nowhere, he didn't dare to be nostalgic, bowed his head and rode his horse to continue to rush forward.
Such scenes abound, those who were knocked to death, hacked to death, shot to death, and even fell from their horses, trampled to death by their own people, and even people and horses were knocked to the ground and crushed to death by horses.
The strangulation of the two armies can see the difference between the new soldiers and the old soldiers, the cavalry of the Kolko Department is mainly old pawns, although it seems that the momentum is not as great as the royal cavalry, but it is like a silkworm eating mulberry leaves, silently, the cavalry of the Kolko Department has gained the upper hand.
Xiao Yu mixed in the crowd with his sword, if he was alone in the face of five thousand cavalry, he would die on the spot, but if the two sides were strangled each other in such a situation, he could be called like a fish in water.
Swords aren't meant to be used on the battlefield, but if the sword has enough volume, then that's a different story.
Every time the huge Tianlan swung it, a horse would be cut in half by the people and horses. Xiao Yu didn't need to use his vitality, he just rode and killed, and dozens of horses had already fallen under the sword. At this time, a cavalryman who was considered an archer had already discovered Xiao Yu, bent his bow and arrow, and shot an arrow at Xiao Yu's heart in the chaos of the army, Xiao Yu was indifferent to this arrow, and still broke a royal court cavalry from half with a sword. I don't know when a layer of dark red vitality has spread all over Xiao Yu's back, and the arrow can't advance a single point if it falls three inches behind Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu turned around, and seemed to throw it casually, Tianlan came out of his hand, and the smile on the face of the sharpshooter had not even completely disappeared, it had already been pierced by Tianlan, and the upper half of the whole person disappeared, leaving only the part below the chest that was still sitting on the horse.
Xiao Yu waved his hand, Tianlan flew back upside down, swept past several royal court cavalry along the way, and the wanton sword qi passed by, all of them were corpses and bones, and blood was all over the ground.
At this time, more than ten flying swords flew by, and the cultivators of the Sword Sect finally made a move, and the flying swords brought up countless blood, wantonly harvesting the lives of the cavalry.
Xiao Yu smiled coldly, and Tianlan in his hand flew out again, splitting a Sword Sect sword cultivator directly from the beginning with a sword. The rest of the cultivators were shocked, and immediately dispersed, killing an Empty Soul cultivator with a single sword, this was at least something that could only be done in the Frost Walking Realm, and it was not something they could deal with.
