c_t; The Imperial Guards had no experience in fighting with the Dragon Soul Legion, and they were originally still laughing at the Eastern Expeditionary Army for being too weak, and they couldn't even beat a local legion in the Longxiao Empire. Pen%Fun%Pavilion www.biquge.info(')

After losing hundreds of men, the cavalry of the Imperial Guard finally saw the neat infantry phalanx at the mouth of the valley from a distance, and the dense forest of guns made them shudder. The cavalry charge could not be hesitated, especially in such a narrow terrain, and hesitation was tantamount to death, so those Chagatai cavalry could only grit their teeth and rush forward, even though they were not far away.

The cavalry who rushed to the front was directly picked at the tip of the spear, but his huge impact also made the shield array appear a flaw. The Chagatai cavalry was like a continuous wave, washing away the strong defense line of the heavy infantry. Because the impact of the cavalry was so great, the hoplites were slowly retreating from the impact, and they were about to be squeezed out of the valley.

Seeing that the hoplites were about to be pushed out of the valley, Gou Jinguang knew that once the cavalry broke into the valley, they would have room to exert themselves, and it would be a disaster for the Dragon Soul Legion.

"Give me all the top, and you must not take a step back and push the enemy's cavalry back for me. Gou Jinguang shouted, and the Mo sword soldiers behind put away their Mo swords one after another and rushed forward, they rushed to the first row, helping the hoplites at the front to stabilize the crumbling shield array.

"Defend with all your might, and never retreat until you die. The warriors shouted loudly and burst out with battle energy all over their bodies, and they worked in pairs, pushing their shields slowly forward, and actually squeezed the Chagatai cavalry back. The archers desperately strangled the follow-up troops of the Chagatai cavalry, leaving them gradually in confusion, and the Mo sword soldiers who stabilized the shield array began to draw their Mo knives and slash the enemy in the gaps, all the squadron leaders and squad leaders rushed to the front line, and they relied on their stronger combat effectiveness to resist the impact of the Chagatai cavalry again and again.

"Is that thing ready?" Gou Jinguang shouted to a captain beside him.

"It's ready to be launched at any time. The captain replied immediately.

"Very good, launch it immediately, we will completely annihilate these Chagatai cavalry. Gou Jinguang gave an order, and many soldiers climbed the cliff one after another. The Chagatai cavalry was still pushing the cavalry in front of them, struggling to launch one charge after another, but they did not know that they were already in great trouble.

The commander of the Imperial Guard and several of his relatives walked at the rear, and at this time they looked anxiously at the cavalry in front, not knowing what the battle situation had reached, and now the narrow valley could not be squeezed through at all, and they had to wait for the news ahead.

At this moment, Captain Wan suddenly heard a rumbling sound, and when he looked up, he found countless boulders falling wildly from the top of his head, and the targets were none other than him and the guards. The retreat was all covered by boulders, and it was impossible to retreat if it was too far to retreat, while the forward was crowded with waiting cavalry. At this critical juncture, the captain jumped to his feet, and finally chose to abandon his horse, stepped on the head of his comrade, and galloped forward.

The galloping captain attracted the attention of the soldiers of the 3rd Division above his head, and they threw the big rocks on the mountain in an attempt to kill him, but the captain was strong after all, and he flexibly avoided the crisis again and again, and ran forward.

The captain ran away, but the Chagatai cavalry behind was killed. After the falling boulders blocked the retreat, they had become immobile targets. For a time, feathered arrows, gravel and giant trees came down one after another, and the immobile Chagatai cavalry was stoned to death on the mountain road.

Another pile of boulders fell, separating the hundreds of cavalry at the front from the large force behind, and most of the Chagatai cavalry was blocked in two not wide valleys. The soldiers of the Dragon Soul Legion on the cliff came to their senses, and they used all kinds of weapons to ravage the Chagatai people below the mountain, and soon gathered them together and annihilated them.

Those cavalry who were isolated in front also did not benefit, and in the absence of backup, how could they be the opponent of the well-equipped Dragon Soul Legion soldiers. Under the combined efforts of the hoplites and the Mosaman, these cavalry were quickly lost.

Among the Imperial Guard, which was known as the strongest force of the Chagatai Khanate, such a well-equipped 10,000-strong army, under the strangulation of the Third Division, almost did not achieve any results and was completely annihilated, only the powerful commander of the Ten Thousand Commanders was still dodging left and right in the valley at the moment, making futile resistance.

Seeing that there was still a guy who was not dead, Gou Jinguang frowned and said, "All the archers concentrate on shooting, don't let this guy leave this place alive." The archers immediately turned their direction and fired a volley of fire at the captain. Captain Wan used all what he had learned in his life to completely burst out the battle qi in his body, and he braved the rain of arrows in the sky and rushed towards the road blocked by the boulder.

After a bit of climbing, the captain finally climbed the huge boulder pile. Looking at the archers who were still firing feathered arrows, the captain breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that his life had been saved.

Seeing that the other party was about to escape, Gou Jinguang beckoned: "Bring my bow." Soon, a heavy three-meter-tall iron tire bow was taken. The senior officers of the Dragon Soul Legion are very fond of all kinds of weapons developed by Fang Ruitao, and they have worked hard to learn the use of these new weapons according to their hobbies, and Gou Jinguang's favorite is the longbow.

Since Gou Jinguang has now reached the strength of a first-grade soul master, the longbow he uses is naturally not an ordinary product. The hard yew wood could no longer satisfy the pull of his perverted arm, so he made a special iron-tired longbow out of alloy steel.

Pulling the bowstring, the longbow made an overwhelmed sound, and Gou Jinguang took the long arrow and easily pulled the iron-tired bow in a circle. Aiming at the captain who was about to lose sight, he decisively let go of his left hand that was pulling the bowstring.

The feathered arrows that flew out were like a bolt of lightning that pierced the sky, shooting towards the back of the captain. The captain thought he was safe, his vigilance was a little relaxed, and seeing that the way of life was in front of him, he instinctively jumped up slightly, and leaped out of the flat ground outside the valley.

His body had just glided a few meters in the air when he suddenly felt a huge force hit him in the back. A sharp pain came from his chest, and the captain lowered his head to find that a sharp feathered arrow had protruded three inches from his chest, shooting directly through his heart.
