It's just a small town, and naturally there are no walls.

It is unrealistic to rely on these people in the town to resist the four big gangsters.

Therefore, when Zhao Mingyuan and his entourage came here, what they saw was a scene like a locust transiting.

The whole town was empty, as quiet as a ghost land.

Almost everything that could be taken away was taken away, except for some corpses left on the ground, and there were still a lot of blood stains on the ground.

Clearly, there was a fight here.

It's just that the people in the town were defeated by the four great cowards, and they were quickly defeated, and then they were plundered.

Maybe the people in the town are still alive, but they were also taken away by the four great cowards.

Zhao Mingyuan did not enter the city without authorization, but only sent a few teams and dozens of people into the town to investigate.

After all, cavalry is at its strongest in the wilderness, and if you enter the town and face the enemy in the intricate terrain, you will be killing yourself.

Now that the strong enemy is on the side, it is possible to encounter the enemy at any time, and Zhao Mingyuan naturally will not make such a mistake.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Mingyuan's caution was not in vain, there was really an ambush here.

It seems that they found that the brigade did not enter their preset ambush circle, and the soldiers and horses of the four great Kou showed their figures.

Zhao Mingyuan found that there were thieves on both sides of their path, and they walked out densely, and it seemed that there were one or two thousand people on each side.

The only direction in which no enemy appeared was the town in front of them.

It's really a classic circumference of three missing one.

Apparently, the Four Kou were ready to force them into the town.

Probably that's where they were supposed to ambush.

It's a pity that Zhao Mingyuan and the others didn't step into the trap, so that the four big Kou had to launch a siege in advance, otherwise they would miss the opportunity.

Pegasus Ranch and the Four Great Kou have been at war for a long time, and they soon recognized the leaders of the teams in each of the three directions, who are three of the Four Great Kou, "no grass grows" to the sky, "chickens and dogs do not stay" Fang Jianding, and "scorched earth thousands of miles" boring.

And Cao Yinglong, the head of the four major Kou, "Ghost Crying God", did not appear this time.

Obviously, Cao Yinglong is most likely ambushed in the town now, or waiting to attack in another direction behind the town.

Seeing that the enemy was getting closer and closer, the people of Pegasus Ranch were restless, and some even suggested hiding in the town.

After all, dozens of people had just been sent into the town, and no danger was found.

Although the invisible danger is also frightening compared to the danger that can only be seen in front of the eyes, after all, it does not show its head, and many people still fantasize about taking a gamble.

If Zhao Mingyuan hadn't come this time, and Shang Xiuxun was leading the team, then she might really have listened to them, entered the town to hide, and thus fell into a siege.

It's unclear what ambush awaits them in this town, but the simple logic of war is that the more the enemy expects you to do, the more you can't.

Therefore, it was naturally impossible for Zhao Mingyuan to choose to enter the town to hide. Instead, he made a quick decision and ordered everyone to immediately line up and prepare to break through.

Fortunately, the leaders who followed Zhao Mingyuan this time were either Shang Xiuxun's people or his people. They all obeyed orders, and no one contradicted him at this critical moment.

Therefore, Zhao Mingyuan's order was well executed by everyone.

The carefully crafted cavalry of the Pegasus Ranch is indeed elite, and the order is forbidden. Soon they lined up and waited for Zhao Mingyuan's order, ready to rush and fight.

Zhao Mingyuan looked at it slightly, then waved his hand at the enemy army on the right side of the three roads, and then he took the lead and rushed towards the thief army in that direction.

Naturally, the others were not far behind and rushed forward.

In fact, these three directions are the same for Zhao Mingyuan, and there is no big difference.

The leader of this direction is the "no grass" Xiang Batian, one of the four major cowards.

Seeing Zhao Mingyuan breaking through in his direction, Xiang Batian immediately ordered to stick to the spot, and a line of soldiers with big shields also appeared in the front row, erected a big shield in front of the formation, lined up the formation, and prepared to meet the impact of the cavalry.

As he got closer and closer, Zhao Mingyuan naturally saw clearly what those strange-shaped shields in the hands of the enemy army were. Why did they have the confidence to rely on those big shields to block the onslaught of the cavalry?

It turned out that those strangely shaped large shields were not so much shields as thick wooden stakes.

The big shields looked similar to the thick log cutting boards that chefs use, only larger and thicker.

It turned out that these four big men didn't have too many iron tools at all, and even if they were lucky enough to grab iron tools, they would all melt them and cast more iron-saving weapons like gun heads, rather than casting them into iron shields.

Therefore, they could only use such wood as a shield.

But don't underestimate them, these wooden shields may not look beautiful, but when it comes to their effectiveness, even if they are made of steel, they are not inferior.

After all, this shield is too thick, each big shield is nearly half a meter thick, about hundreds of catties.

If it weren't for the fact that many people in this world have martial arts, such a bulky thing would never be on the battlefield.

The thickness of this wooden shield alone is enough to deal with most weapons in the world.

Not jokingly, Zhao Mingyuan's golden sword, the sword is three feet nine inches long, even if it is completely submerged, it can't penetrate the shield at all. Even if it is a spear thrust, I am afraid that it will get stuck in the middle and be difficult to penetrate.

Such a shield could resist the ramming of cavalry even by virtue of its own weight.

The cavalry crashed into such a shield, and under the impact of the horse, it was afraid that the horse would immediately break its bones and neck, and the knight on the horse would also be thrown away because of the sudden stop of the horse, fall into the encirclement of the enemy, and be hacked to death by the blade.

Obviously, this was a countermeasure that was devised specifically to deal with the cavalry of the Pegasus Ranch.

Soon, some of the knights who rushed ahead actually saw the situation in front clearly. With their keen sense of riding, they immediately recognized what they were about to face.

However, it was too late to turn around.

Everyone gritted their teeth, clenched the weapons in their hands, clamped the horse's belly, and continued to rush forward.

The speed of the horses did not decrease but increased, and it was clear that they were ready to die.

This is preparing to use his own death to open the way for his comrades!

is worthy of being a soldier of Pegasus Ranch, willing to die for Pegasus Ranch.

However, how could Zhao Mingyuan have no way to deal with it and let these venerable warriors die here like this?

I saw Zhao Mingyuan whipping up his horse quickly, and the fast horse, which was already in the lead, accelerated again, far beyond everyone, and went straight to the opposite side.

The speed of the horse was fast, and in the blink of an eye, Zhao Mingyuan was only a few zhang away from the shield array opposite.

Such a distance is only a blink of an eye for a galloping fast horse.

The eyes of the audience were focused on Zhao Mingyuan.

I saw Zhao Mingyuan draw his sword out of the sheath, and slash one sword in front and one sword on the left and right respectively, and three orange-yellow sword qi flew forward.

This sword qi was faster than Pegasus, and in the blink of an eye, it flew into the enemy formation and slashed at the enemy.

These three sword qi were extremely sharp, and the blockers were invincible, whether it was a person, a horse, a shield or a weapon in front of them, they were all cut into two sections.

This shield array was suddenly cut out of a gap of more than ten zhang, revealing the unobstructed thief soldiers behind it.

Zhao Mingyuan fought his horse and entered the enemy formation.

I saw that the golden sword in Zhao Mingyuan's hand was less than four feet, but there was a sword more than three feet long.

This sword was actually used by Zhao Mingyuan with the feeling of a long weapon, and the enemies in front of him were all cut in two by him, without exception.

Seeing this, a group of thieves dodged one after another, and they were killed by Zhao Mingyuan alone.

Seeing Zhao Mingyuan so powerful, everyone in Pegasus Ranch applauded, their morale soared, and they rushed in along the gap opened by Zhao Mingyuan, and followed Zhao Mingyuan to kill the enemy.

Without the resistance of the big shield, the infantry was simply vulnerable to the onslaught of the cavalry.

The thief army immediately broke and dodged, and everyone followed Zhao Mingyuan to rush forward to kill, where the orange-yellow sword light flashed, everyone rushed to wherever it was.

For a time, the cavalry of Pegasus Ranch slaughtered the thieves on this side to a rout.

Zhao Mingyuan kept swinging the long sword in his hand, only to feel that his hand suddenly became light, and the dense enemy in front of him was nowhere to be seen, and there was a feeling that he had come out of the crops.

Only then did he realize that he had already killed the enemy army in this area.

Zhao Mingyuan turned around, and everyone gathered behind him.

After a little look, Zhao Mingyuan found that the sacrifice of this charge was not large, and the casualties of Pegasus Ranch were less than 100.

After all, most of the cavalry sacrifices in the front row collided, and the people behind rushed to kill, unless the luck was too bad and the horse was tripped, otherwise most of them would be fine.

And the people of Pegasus Ranch have superb riding skills, so only dozens of people fell off their horses in this wave of killings, which is definitely not much.

Now that they have broken out of the encirclement, they are now safe.

It's just that their trip is to deal with the four big criminals, so isn't this time in vain?

Naturally, everyone was still unsatisfied, Zhao Mingyuan saw the riders on the horses around him, and many people looked at him with reverence and eagerness in their eyes.

Obviously, they also wanted to follow Zhao Mingyuan to kill again.

After all, the people of Pegasus Ranch have long hated the four big cowards. Before the four big Kou came to attack, Pegasus Ranch only relied on the support of Jingling Dominating the Mountain Villa to barely drive the four big Kou away.

They have never faced the enemy like this. For a while, many people were still unsatisfied and wanted to continue fighting.

Seeing that the military heart was available, Zhao Mingyuan swung his sword forward, and everyone rushed in.

In fact, Xiang Batian's subordinates were killed by the charge just now, and the military formation was already chaotic.

However, Zhao Mingyuan once again led the crowd to rush from behind to kill, and the thief army was even more defenseless, and suddenly made a mess, running around like headless flies, faintly showing signs of collapse.

Seeing this, Xiang Batian hurriedly shouted an order to maintain order.

Zhao Mingyuan saw that these thieves were gradually showing signs of restoring order under Xiang Batian's orders, so he turned his horse's head and rushed straight in the direction of Batian.
