Chapter 30: Classic Victory
With a flick of the horse's head, the cavalry on both sides gradually formed two arcs, and surrounded the sudden enemy.
The speed and momentum that he had accumulated by relying on long-distance running, and he attacked from behind and broke through the team in one fell swoop. At this time, the momentum was lost, and in the face of being surrounded on three sides, it was almost impossible for the prime minister to rush back.
What was strange to the soldiers of the Haori Kingdom was that after those people were shocked, they did not continue to move forward. The hill in front is flat, so rush up and get out.
But what puzzled the general who led the troops was that so many hundred or so people turned around, as if they wanted to continue to kill the enemy! The general was angry in his heart: Killing 200 people is enough, and you want to kill again, are you thinking that my elite cavalry is a clay sculpture?
"Kill!" the general gave an order, and the cavalry drew their swords, and the momentum soared to the sky!
However, before the cavalry could finish shouting "kill", a "boom" sound sounded. The sound came from the hillside ahead, as if there were a lot of heavy objects rolling.
After hesitation, the soldiers resolutely carried out the order and brandished their weapons to kill the enemy. Suddenly, the hillside rippled like ripples. Many large rocks fell from the sky, as if they had fallen out of the air.
As soon as the cavalry charged, before their speed increased, they were hit by stones. The war horse neighed, but he couldn't avoid the sudden boulder. Although the horse was not stoned to death, many of its legs were broken and fell to the ground wailing.
The soldiers poured into each other, huddled together. Many people have fallen to the ground before they reach the enemy. Then the horse's hooves were trampled down, and they were either dead or wounded, and could do nothing but wail.
There was only one place where the stone fell, not far from the gap where Feng Luo and the others impacted. The soldiers on both sides who were originally going to surround him were suddenly smashed down. As soon as the other side launched a charge, when they saw the great change, they immediately stopped attacking and retreated.
Seeing this, Feng Luo waved his knife and ordered: "Rush with me!"
The team arced and rushed towards the gap that had been smashed by the boulder. Some of the fallen soldiers were not dead, but were struggling to crawl out of the pile of corpses, when a group of cavalry rushed up.
Feng Luo did not hesitate, as if he had lost his pity, and rode over the enemy. The sound of bones shattering sounded, and it was so crisp to the ears!
rushed out for several feet, but no one stopped him. When the soldiers of the Haori Kingdom reacted, the opponent's speed had already increased, and they had to face another impact.
The general was already a little dumbfounded, the enemy appeared suddenly, where did the stone come from? According to his understanding, unless there is a peerless powerhouse, using spatial techniques, people or things can appear out of thin air.
However, peerless powerhouses are generally not interested in participating in specific battles. What's more, if you want to deal with them, the master can just make a few moves, and there is no need to set traps.
The most important thing is that the general no longer knows how to command the soldiers, and what to do if there is another accident?
"General, what should I do?" asked his men anxiously.
The general blushed, shook his teeth, and said, "Fifty steps back, quick! Let them go!"
The cavalry retreated in an orderly manner, and the comrades in front struggled on the line of life and death, but could not come forward to rescue. The cavalry and stones that appeared out of thin air terrified them. If it weren't for the military order, I really wanted to shoot the horse and run away.
In a matter of moments, Feng Luo had already led people out of the encirclement, and then crashed into the cliff. In the exclamation of the enemy, ripples emerged, and the men and horses disappeared!
As the sound of the horses' hooves faded away, they began to gasp for air, wondering what the hell it was.
"Well, that's the domain technique......" someone whispered.
The general had a flash of inspiration and finally understood: it should be a realm technique to create illusions!
I didn't expect such a trap, so now I have to stop first. Because since Davao has a defense, there is no point in going forward, so it can only take it step by step. The cavalry suffered such a big blow, and their morale dropped greatly, don't think about any combat effectiveness, "Everyone stay away from the hillside, be careful that something falls! Come on, go to the other side of the stone wall to investigate!" The general issued an order in a huff.
Someone in front of him went out to explore the way, and carefully pierced the stone wall with his weapon, and passed through. Then, even men and horses passed.
The general was rewarded and rode away, as if a membrane, through which it was another world. And what they saw was the hillside on the left!
Yes, Feng Luo used Shadow Heavy, interchanging the scenes on both sides. There are many people and great strength, and in less than half an hour, Feng Luo set up a good formation and launched it quickly.
The domain technique that was originally used for defense was used as an auxiliary means for ambushes, and the effect was so good, which was somewhat unexpected by Feng Luo. Of course, it is inseparable from the general's prudence that adjusted the trend of the team.
The cavalry lay in ambush on the gentle slope of the hill and sent another fifty men to the opposite cliff. The general's defensive strategy was not wrong, but the direction was reversed, revealing a big flaw, and there was a chance for a successful sneak attack.
After Feng Luo defeated that section of the team, he was not greedy for merit and battle, and quickly retreated. When the other party noticed that they were far away, the people on the cliff disrupted the formation and found a way to go back.
Even though he moved quickly, he still lost three men, almost all of whom returned wounded. More than 100 people attacked, killing nearly 300 enemies, but with only such a small loss, I am afraid it can be regarded as a classic battle in the history of the mainland.
The cavalry of 4,000 men, with more than a tenth of the casualties, could not fight next. The follow-up troops will also be hindered, the progress of the war will be slowed down, and the city of Foote will have more time to prepare. Feng Luo's surprise attack could not be said to turn the tide of the battle, but it greatly narrowed the gap between the two sides.
The biggest problem in Davao at the moment is the lack of unified scheduling, and everyone is fighting in silos. Until the commanders of the legions are coordinated with each other, I am afraid it will be difficult to organize an effective counterattack. Valuable fighters will be delayed as a result, giving the enemy time to gain a foothold.
And what Feng Luo did not only blocked the opponent's vanguard troops, but also slowed down the movement of the follow-up troops. Because they will be afraid to go forward.
At this time, Feng Luo did not have the joy after the victory, and what he saw was the loss of his subordinates. No matter how few people die, they are still dead. While others rejoiced, he always had a serious face.
The warriors talked excitedly about how the enemy army was frightened by the few people they had just killed, and even thought that the army of the Haori Kingdom was exaggerating. Of course, they were also very curious about what was going on with Feng Luo's domain technique.
Everyone saw Feng Luo frowning, thinking that he was thinking about his next move, so they didn't bother him. After all, the war will not end anytime soon, and there are all kinds of problems to face.
"Sting, you go back and report to Commander Spark, that we have succeeded in holding off the enemy according to his plan!" Feng Luo suddenly spoke.
