Chapter 5 Cavalry from the Sky

The hundreds of horse bandits suddenly looked a little confused, and the scar leader looked around, only to see a yellow dust turned into a huge salon, and countless cold rays of cold light flickered in the yellow sand.

Touching the sweat on his forehead, the scar leader immediately made a decision, waved the saber in his hand, and shouted: "Quick, brothers, hurry up." Then one of them jumped on the horse's back, and the saber struck the horse that had sat down, and the horse neighed, and galloped away first.

Seeing that his eldest brother had fled, the rest of the shrimp soldiers and crabs naturally followed one after another, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of horse bandits were clean.

As soon as the bandits walked on their front feet, a pair of cavalrymen in iron armor came to the front of the village almost on their hind feet. It's just that the mud that was almost soaked in blood, countless stumps and broken arms were scattered aside. It was a living hell on earth, the thick smell of blood in the air was almost disgusting, and the faces of the first few ironclad cavalrymen to arrive were obviously a little ugly.

"What's going on?" Suddenly, a majestic voice came from behind. The pair of horsemen drove their horses down and stood in two rows, leaving a path in the middle. A middle-aged man wearing a silver helmet and a mixed iron chain mail came to the front of the cavalry. This middle-aged man has a Chinese face, a burly and strong figure, and his whole expression naturally has a solemn posture of not being angry and arrogant.

Suddenly, his pupils contracted, and the middle-aged man's wide hands trembled slightly, and the murderous aura in his eyes could almost shoot out of his sockets. "What the hell is going on?" the man asked coldly.

Next to him, a person who looked like an adjutant stepped forward a few steps forward and said with a respectful expression: "General Qiyu, it is estimated that this technique was done by some wandering bandits, according to the report of the vanguard army just now, it seems that a team of men and horses has just withdrawn from the opposite direction from which we came not long ago, and his subordinates have sent a team to chase after them at full speed." With that, he slowly retreated.

"Pass on my military order, the kamikaze army is in an encirclement formation and advance at full speed, there is only a big river in front of it and no bridges are erected, and the other two sides are high mountains, be sure to rob the mysterious group of people who have just escaped to me, and leave a hundred people with this general, search the entire village to see if there is any life. ”

"Yes. Immediately, a hundred cavalry dismounted one after another, and under the leadership of the middle-aged general, they searched the villages one by one. The soldier who looked like an adjutant before left with a military order, and the dense team in the rear suddenly dispersed into a huge fan shape after receiving the order, advancing at full speed.

"Big brother, what should we do? We can't get rid of those cavalry behind. The pockmarked horse bandit shouted at the scar leader who was galloping wildly. The leader of the scar glanced at a small group of cavalry that was getting closer and closer behind him, with a very vicious look on his face, and scolded: "What nonsense, it's important to run for your life, as long as we are entangled by them, and wait for the big troops behind us to outflank us, none of us want to live today, damn, it's bloody today, how did you encounter such a large army, second, you show me what the banner of that army is?"

Mazi promised, looked back, it was okay not to look at it, at a glance, the whole face of the pockmarked man became bloodless, and there was a violent tremor all over his body, and he almost fell off the horse. "Big brother, how do I look, it's a bit like a kamikaze. ”

The body of the scar leader also trembled obviously, his eyes were about to bulge out, and his tone of voice was also a little uneasy: "Look carefully? ”

"The big boss, the second boss is right, the cavalry banner that chased over does have a golden thread embroidered wind character on it. As if to verify that what Mazi said was true, a small minion who followed the two also saw the banner of the cavalry.

As if he was instantly struck by a thunderbolt, the scar leader seemed to have lost his soul, and muttered with a pale face: "Lao Tzu is finished today, how did you run into the kamikaze regiment?" Then the scar leader roared angrily at the hundreds of horse bandits behind him, and the whip in his hand was slammed again, and the horse sitting down was frightened, and the speed was a little faster.

Although there is still a little distance between the two sides, but under the superb riding skills of the cavalry, the distance between the two sides is slowly narrowing. At this moment, the chasing cavalry had already unsheathed, and within a short distance, the cavalry could see at a glance that the group of men and horses in front of them was obviously a fierce horse bandits. Judging from the bloodstains on the sabers in their hands, it is almost certain that they are the main culprits in the tragedy in the small village. After the captain of the cavalry squad gave the order to sprint with all his might, he rushed out first, and the cold spear in his hand stabbed forward with a roar.

After running wildly for more than ten miles, a low embankment faintly appeared in front of him, and the sound of the waves crashing against the embankment seemed to be heard in his ears. "Hahahaha, God help me, brothers add a handful of oil, as long as you rush into the river and everyone swims across the shore, it will be safe!"

As if to deny the whimsical idea of the Scar Leader, as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a terrible scream from behind, and it turned out that under the full speed charge of the cavalry, the horse bandits who had fallen behind had been overtaken. The spear in the hand of the cavalry squad leader stabbed violently, and the shadow of the spear turned into countless illusions, like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter, and in an instant, with the huge and unparalleled impact of the horse that sat down, he picked away the two horse bandits who fell last.

The horse bandit screamed and fell from mid-air, and before he could reach the ground, he saw dozens of steel knives running through his body like a whirlwind, and two pools of bloody flesh and mud splashed in all directions.

"Charge again!" the cavalry captain ordered loudly again, and with his feet slammed the military horse that sat down, and with the military horse charging again, he easily picked up a few unlucky horse bandits.

At this time, the advantages and disadvantages of the two sides can be seen, the horses ridden by the horse bandits are just ordinary breeds, and the riding skills that can be mastered cannot be seen how superb. However, the horses on which the cavalry sat were clearly of an excellent breed that had been selected, and the horsemen who had mastered the skill of horsemen were unmatched by the horse bandits.

The cavalry captain had already rushed into the camp of the horse bandits and opened a killing spree, and under his leadership, the cavalry unit under his command was like a sharp steel knife directly stabbing through the rear defense line of the horse bandit camp.

Most of the bandits who participated in the gang only relied on a few brute forces, that is, they could do evil in front of ordinary people, and they were really vulnerable to being put in front of well-trained troops. I saw that one after another horse bandits were picked off their horses by the cavalry with spears, and before these unlucky horse bandits could resist, countless iron hooves swarmed and trampled into blood and flesh in an instant. Of course, there are also some fierce ones, seeing that they can't escape the cavalry behind them, so they ask for a ruthless surname and turn their heads to fight with the cavalry.

Behind the scar leader heard the terrible screams from time to time, and the look on his face was shocked and angry, seeing that the team he had finally pulled up was so lost in the hands of these cavalrymen, he was really unwilling in his heart. But he also understands the current situation very well, he can only flee for his life, even if he now gives an order to turn around and compete with these cavalry to the death, even if he can severely damage this cavalry team, I am afraid that his brothers will not have much left, not to mention that there are more troops encircling here not far away, once they are surrounded, then it is estimated that they will really end up with a whimper today.

"General, my subordinates have carefully searched the entire village, and no surviving villagers have been found, and it is estimated that all of them were slaughtered by horse bandits. A young soldier saluted respectfully to the middle-aged general.

"Huh?" The general's face sank suddenly, and he said slightly angrily: "What is the estimation, give me a careful search, don't let go of any corner, human life cannot be so sloppy." ”

"Yes, my subordinates will do it!" The soldier listened to the general's tone a little angry, and his heart was shocked, and he didn't dare to complain in the slightest, so he turned around and retreated.

More than 100 corpses were neatly placed in front of the general, and some soldiers even matched the stumps that had fallen from the ground with the corpses according to their shapes and the color of their remaining clothes. The general's face was gloomy, the tiger's eyes were full of coldness, and a pair of clenched big hands were a little pale because of the great force. "How can I forgive these brutes who have lost their conscience, even these innocent people? After that, he took off his helmet, bowed to the corpse, and said solemnly: "Fellow villagers, please forgive the soldiers of my kamikaze army for being one step late, I Jin Cheng will guarantee with my surname, and I will definitely seek justice for you, please rest in peace!"

As soon as he finished saluting, he heard the sound of horses' hooves in front of him, and the general named Jin Cheng looked up, but it was the cavalry squad that had been sent to pursue the horse bandits in the first place had returned. Several horse bandits with partial scaly wounds were being tied up tightly, and among them was the horse bandit with a pockmarked face, but he didn't see the scar leader.

After General Jin Cheng saw several bandits behind the cavalry, his whole face was almost gloomy and terrifying, and his right hand also lightly pressed the saber on his waist.

The cavalry captain came to Jin Cheng, flew off his horse, knelt on one knee, and said respectfully: "General, my subordinates and others caught up with a group of fleeing horse bandits here for more than ten miles, and after a fierce battle, they killed one hundred and thirty-nine murderous horse bandits and captured seven people, but their subordinates did not catch up with the leader of the horse bandits, and let him jump into the river and dive and escape. ”

"Escaped from the leader, then why don't you chase it?" Jin Cheng's body was filled with an incomparably majestic momentum.

"The subordinates, I wanted to chase, but the river was really turbulent, and after the bandit leader entered the water, he disappeared completely, and the other side of the river was already the boundary of the Tianchu Kingdom, and the subordinates did not dare to enter rashly. ”

After listening to the cavalry captain's narration, a trace of solemn affection also appeared on Jin Cheng's face, and after half a sound, he sighed and said: "Get up, after all, you have done your best, there have been disputes on the southern border of our country recently, and the relationship between Tianchu and our country has always been not so harmonious, at this moment of stormy times, it is better not to cause more trouble, these people are one of those horse bandits who have been captured alive?" When the horse bandits were mentioned in the second half of the sentence, the surrounding soldiers clearly felt the murderous aura surging on the general in front of them, as if even the air had frozen in an instant.

The horse bandit with a pockmarked face felt the murderous aura exuding from Jin Cheng's body, his whole body trembled, and he was not even fluent in speaking, so he hurriedly shouted: "My lord, spare my life, we are all controlled by that damn bandit, we were all forcibly forced by them to become robbers and bandits, my lord, we are wronged!"

"You are talking nonsense, I saw that you killed someone, you have to return my father's life!" Everyone was stunned and turned to look.
