Chapter 91: The Battle of Self-Defense (5)

The besieged cavalry had completely lost the charge advantage that cavalry should have, and after the brigade leader decisively gave up his rifle or even drew his sword and jumped off his horse, more and more cavalry became infantry, so that they could at least not worry about the tragedy caused by the spear being stabbed at any time by the mount under them.

This group of cavalry was indeed well-trained, even if they had just been beaten, but after jumping off their horses, they quickly formed a small formation of three or five people to take care of each other to temporarily resist the attack from the surrounding area, which made the attack of the dart masters ineffective for a while.

But between the fingers, the ten Huojialing horsemen who had just detoured out from both sides of the car wall rushed back, and with the continuous movement of the riding bow in their hands, they seemed to have resumed their identity as horse thieves, and what was in front of them was a caravan that completely exposed their backs, and began a formal wave of robbery.

In the blink of an eye, four cavalry who gave up their mounts fell to the ground with arrows, and the cavalry who had just stabilized their positions suddenly panicked, they couldn't fully bring the equipment in the army this time, and in the face of a limited number of feather arrows, they could only use the horizontal knives in their hands to push the arrows away, but they couldn't take care of the spears around them, and the cavalrymen who couldn't use them were either shot by the sneak attack feather arrows, or they were stabbed through by the spears that were suddenly handed to them when they dodged the feather arrows, and even the unlucky ones were hit by the stray arrows that had been missed.

In a short moment, seven or eight more fell to the ground, and the footsteps of the dart masters approached again, narrowing the circle by a few points, and exerting more pressure on the cavalry.

It seems that some of the people who are fighting are too involved, or this plan is going too smoothly, causing everyone to get a little carried away, forgetting that Huo Lang led people to cut off only a part of the cavalry, and there are also a full twenty horsemen who successfully passed through the defense line just now, and at this time they turned their horses and rushed back.

The only person who noticed this situation was Ding Li, who didn't participate in the battle much, turned around and galloped towards a mount, picked up a spear that was thrown on the ground, flew on the horse, pulled the reins and turned the horse's head, knocked the horse with both feet, and without the slightest pause, he greeted the cavalry behind him, and at the same time reminded Huo Lang loudly: "Huo Er is in charge, block behind!" ”

Hearing this, Huo Lang immediately realized that his victory was actually less than half of it, so he gave up on those people in the encirclement in front of him, and turned his mount while shouting at a few of his subordinates behind him: "Go!" Block them! ”

Ding Li and Huo Lang were followed by several coachmen around them, although the tragic death of their companions just now had a great shock in their hearts, especially when those cavalrymen abandoned their mounts one after another, they had no goal. But at this time, when he heard Ding Li's shout, he immediately turned his attention to those cavalrymen, and slowly raised his arms with a cautious face, and his flashing eyes kept wandering over the twenty horsemen, looking for the golden leaf that belonged to him.

Including Ding Li and Huo Lang, there are only eight people in total, but in the face of nearly three times the enemy, no one is timid, especially Ding Li, who is in the lead, and the spear in his hand has a certain advantage, although it is not suitable for fighting on horseback, but Ding Li doesn't care about those at all, and his eyes are staring at the team on the opposite side who is struggling to urge the mount.

"Brothers, rush over!" When the distance between the two sides was rapidly narrowing, the leading team suddenly twisted the spear in his hand slightly, and shouted, as if to cheer up and encourage everyone on his side.

But no one on Ding Li's side spoke, and he continued to knock the horse pedals as much as possible to increase the speed of the mount faster. Huo Lang and the others, who were closely behind Ding Li, were tied in a row intentionally or unintentionally, and everyone seemed confident that they would shoot their opponents off their horses.

Twenty steps, fifteen steps, ten steps, eight steps.

In the blink of an eye, the two sides could clearly see the expressions on their opponents' faces, and Ding Li, who had a solemn face, suddenly made a move, but instead of stabbing the weapon in his hand at the opponent or the mount under the opponent like an ordinary cavalryman, he suddenly put the spear across his chest, and his arm pushed forward violently, and the enemy on the opposite side seemed to have a huge magic force, and the spear of nearly two feet suddenly sucked towards him.

"Huh?" Including the leader of the team, the three people side by side were just about to stab the cavalry spear, but they hurriedly retracted the cavalry spear, and subconsciously wanted to pull away the spear that was blocking the front, of course, the concerted efforts of the three people must have succeeded in shooting down the spear, but the distance between the two sides has been very close, and the three of them can no longer temporarily stab the cavalry spear.

More importantly, Ding Li already had a wide-backed saber in his hand, between the lightning and flint, Ding Li rushed to the team and another cavalryman, when the three horses were staggered, Ding Li waved the saber in his hand at great speed, and two blood arrows flew up, and the team and the cavalry were full of unwillingness, still holding their respective riding spears tightly in their hands, and their bodies fell to the side, and they fell to the ground.

Ding Li, who killed the two with one blow, was not easy, facing the two cavalrymen who appeared in front of him again, especially the cavalry spears in the hands of the two stabbed at himself and the mount under his crotch respectively, the saber in Ding Li's hand was not enough to block. Ding Li, who reacted quickly, decisively gave up the defense, simply suddenly pulled the reins, and took the opportunity of the war horse to stop suddenly, and did not hesitate to pounce sideways to the ground, so as to avoid the attack of the two, but the mount that he was riding just now was stabbed in the front and sideways by two riding spears, and the wails were repeated.

Because the horse spear stabbed on the horse and failed to pull it out in time, the movements of the two cavalrymen were also blocked at the same time, Ding Li was even more respite, rolling to the side before the iron hooves of the war horse fell on him, and the sharp saber in his hand was even more vigorous, directly cutting off the hind legs of a cavalryman's war horse, and the war horse in the sorrow fell to the side even if it was in pain, and the cavalry on horseback waved his arms with a strange scream after losing his balance, and was cut off half of his neck by Ding Li before he landed.

Huo Lang's six people are also not bad, the cavalry is hedged hard, they usually practice in Huojialing Cottage, and there are occasional actual battles in robbing some caravans on weekdays, so they are not strangers at this moment, although they are not as brave as Ding Li with one enemy and three enemies, but they only paid the price of one person being stabbed off the horse, and the five cavalry were unloaded from the horse, of which three were injured and two died, and the results were quite impressive.

"Set them! Don't be stunned! Ding Li, who had regained his feet, picked up a cavalry spear from the ground and threw it at one of the cavalrymen with his back to him, while shouting orders at the surrounding coachmen.

This shout not only alerted the coachmen, but also startled the dozen or so cavalrymen who had just rushed over, who had seen the tragic fate of their companions dragged off their horses by those rope lascases, and had planned to scatter the spear-wielding dart masters in one go, but now they had to be careful to watch out for an aerial attack that could come from overhead at any moment.

The big dart head Li Shan has come to the enemy and waved the big knife in his hand and began to take the lead in a fierce white-edged battle, and there are also a few dart masters who are good at close combat to replace the spear with their own weapons, especially one is actually wielding a chain meteor hammer, so that those enemies holding standard horizontal knives have no way to dodge at all, even if they forcibly parry, or the blade is smashed by the meteor hammer, or the chain of the meteor hammer that crosses the blade is quickly entangled, and the lucky point is to be taken away from the blade in his hand, The unfortunate one was directly smashed by the non-stop meteor hammer and broke the bone tendons.

The deputy dart head Scar Guard turned the silver-pole spear into a blooming spear, and under the protection of the remaining few dart masters with spears, the cavalry rushing over on the opposite side did not dare to rush and force the charge for a while.

The ten Huojialing cavalry shooters who roamed around the periphery were the most relaxed among the all, and in fact, they were also the most psychologically stressed, although they did not directly confront the enemy, and even did not have any threat to their lives at all. But it was their companions who fought for this opportunity for them, even those who had never met before, and at this moment they were also the Pao Ze brothers who fought side by side with them, and every arrow they shot carried the expectation of everyone while they were galloping, after all, if they shot an enemy, their casualties could be reduced by one point, and they would take one more step towards victory.

After all the cavalry lost their superior mobility, especially the continuous shooting of Huojialing's ten cavalry archers on the periphery, and Miao Cuihua, who picked up the two short crossbows on the ground and began to occasionally block the enemy, this cavalry has become the target of public criticism.

Ding Li and Huo Lang and others joined the battle group on foot with their respective weapons, one after another the enemy could no longer support, the white-knuckle battle between the two sides was completely launched, and it reached its peak in an instant, with the desperate fight of you and my gun, one by one, the body fell, and those who could get up even if they struggled to rejoin the battle, they would be quickly made up by the surrounding enemies, and then they fell to the ground and could not get up again.

It was a fluke that he withdrew from the battle group with the help or drag of his companions, but he couldn't bear to see his companions who had just reached out to him fall to the ground in a blink of an eye, but he couldn't bear to watch the tragic death of his companions, with the injuries on his body, he gritted his teeth and got up, and once again pounced on the crowd with his weapon to start a desperate struggle.

In this kind of life-and-death fight, Ding Li's hands and feet are becoming more and more open, and he can't remember how long he hasn't experienced this kind of scene. Almost everything around was seen in his eyes, whether it was his own dart master or Huo Jialing's brother, or the enemy who was surrounded, completely fearless of life and death, what Ding Li saw was not only the cold and ruthless blade and the blood flashing in front of him from time to time, but also clearly felt the blood in the body of everyone present, as well as the will that everyone believed in their hearts.

For the sake of the brothers around them, each of them can do their best to swing the blade in their hands. For the sake of the injured robe behind him, each of them was able to stand up without hesitation at the critical moment.

For the different beliefs that each of them adheres to in their hearts, each of them can always make some incomprehensible actions.

For example, just now, Ding Li saw with his own eyes that in order to save the dart master next to him, the deputy dart head Scar Guard allowed a horizontal knife on the opposite side to cut a deep wound on his left arm.

Not only were the dart masters able to do similar things, but Ding Li also really saw that before the brigade in front of him was stabbed by Huo Lang's spear, one of his subordinates suddenly dodged and rushed to the brigade and blocked this potentially fatal blow for the opponent.
