Chapter 170: Overwhelming
The battlefield fell into a dead silence.
"Hmmm. "A group of sergeants who were originally facing the battlefield turned around in unison and headed towards the enemy phalanx a mile ahead.
Dawn breaks, and the first rays of sunlight shine and burst out of the horizon.
The clouds on the horizon seemed to be ignited by fire, showing a touch of red.
The grass on the ground was stained red by the blood of the sergeants, and the whole earth was red.
Behind him, a gust of wind blew, enveloping the strong smell of blood, which touched Huang Yuchen's sense of smell and lifted his spirits.
He never looked back, nor did he see the battlefield behind him that had ended the battle, but from this strong bloody atmosphere alone, the tragedy of the scene can be imagined.
Holding the long knife in his hand, fine beads of sweat oozed from his palms, and Huang Yuchen felt a little nervous and excited in his heart.
This is the battlefield, the real battlefield.
In front of him, the neat enemy phalanx, roughly estimated, no less than five thousand.
As the sun rose, the light became more and more abundant, and the enemy phalanx in front of him, bright spears and halberds, and large black shields, were clearly visible.
In their formation, some of the horses seemed to be a little restless, and they gently knocked the grass with their front hooves to dig out the black soil below.
No one spoke, and there was a dead silence on the entire battlefield.
"General. A bloody knight stepped forward, came to Yu Sheng's side, and whispered: "The enemy army behind has been completely annihilated, and our army has suffered casualties, seventy-five people." ”
Yu Sheng nodded lightly, and did not ask about the enemy's casualties, just then he stood on the hill and roughly estimated that the number of enemy troops was about two thousand.
After the sergeant finished his report, he rode back to the team, and when he passed in front of Huang Yuchen, he clearly smelled the strong bloody breath on the sergeant's body. The horses passed by, leaving a few red hoof prints.
I don't know how many people he slashed and killed, and the blood of the enemy stained his armor red, and also soaked his crotch and dismounted his horse.
"The third brigade, sortie, swim to the edge of the enemy phalanx, waiting for an opportunity. Yu Sheng suddenly, ordered loudly.
In an instant, the phalanx moved, the sound of horses' hooves rang out, and a thousand knights of the third brigade broke out of the formation and rushed to the right.
"First team, left. ”
At the sound of the order, the phalanx changed again, and the first team of sergeants went out and went straight to the left of the enemy's phalanx.
The rest of the sergeants, gathered the formation, and did not have any other orders for the rest of their lives, sitting quietly on their horses, their faces unwavering.
Huang Yuchen looked intently, only to see two teams of sergeants, like two running dragons, quickly running towards the two flanks of the enemy phalanx, passing by on its flanks, not to impact the enemy phalanx, but dozens of zhang away from the local phalanx, pulling out the longbow, a rain of arrows rose into the sky, the moment the arrow rain got out of his hand, the black long dragon turned around, and moved away from the enemy's phalanx.
A rain of arrows, like a black cloud, quickly approached the enemy phalanx, the enemy phalanx changed rapidly, and the sergeants in the formation raised their small shields one after another to defend against the sky.
The two black dragons came into contact with the enemy from time to time, and the rain of arrows shot out from time to time, but they dispersed at the slightest touch, not giving the enemy the slightest chance to counterattack.
Compared to mobility, the infantry phalanx was far from being a match for cavalry. After a few waves, the enemy commander roughly calculated the route of the two groups of cavalry, and released the arrows in advance, so that the harassment of the cavalry could be investigated.
After several harassments, it caused a lot of casualties to the enemy phalanx, so passive, so that the enemy sergeant felt depressed, but there was no good way, if the formation was withdrawn, the rest of the cavalry waiting would immediately rush to kill, and then it would not be as simple as harassment.
However, if the two groups of cavalry are allowed to harass in this way, in a short time, their own casualties will be greater, and the phalanx will be defeated by then.
Suddenly, the enemy phalanx began to change, not moving forward, but slowly retreating backwards, and the rest of his life saw the enemy's movements, and suddenly smiled on his face.
"Go out with a squad and give me the enemy's camp. Yu Sheng turned around and ordered in a low voice.
Several sergeants behind him immediately rode forward and went straight to the enemy's camp.
The two black dragons on the battlefield are still harassing the enemy phalanx, and every time the arrow rain falls, it will cause dozens of casualties, while the arrows fired in advance in the phalanx have almost no chance of hitting.
In the face of the high-speed moving cavalry team, the infantry phalanx can only counterattack with all their strength and shoot a rain of arrows at the moment when they approach, but this effect is also minimal, all the knights are armoured, and in the process of moving at high speed, the possibility of shooting the knight is very small, at most it can shoot the war horse.
After several harassments, the two groups of cavalry inflicted hundreds of casualties on the enemy's infantry phalanx, while only a few horses and knights were killed, but there were no casualties.
Such an effect seemed to have been expected for the rest of his life, and the change in the enemy's formation, he also saw it in his eyes, and his eyes were cold.
After a while, the enemy camp was on fire, and the camp was crowded, struggling to put out the fire, and the noisy sound was not heard, which also made the enemy phalanx that was slowly retreating obviously stagnated, and the enemy troops in the phalanx looked back, and the whole phalanx appeared in a moment of turmoil.
At this moment, the two teams of cavalry, who were still harassing, keenly caught the moment of loosening of the enemy's phalanx, and immediately put away their longbows, drew their halberds, and the harassment turned into a charge.
The two black dragons rushed out quickly, and before the enemy could react, they were already close to the front.
The sound of horses' hooves was near, and by the time the sergeant at the front reacted, it was too late. The spears that were originally neatly arranged were scattered in this short commotion, and they lost the momentum they had before facing them. The cavalry brigade seized this gap and rushed straight into the enemy phalanx, and the knights swung their halberds and slashed at will.
The two sergeants rushed into the enemy's phalanx, interspersed back and forth, and scattered the enemy's formation in a moment, like a piece of tofu falling to the ground, loose.
"All the people are impacted!" Seeing this, Yu Sheng's eyes were cold, he directly pulled out his long knife, ordered loudly, and then galloped his horse and went straight to the phalanx in front.
Two thousand knights, who had long been ready to attack, gave an order from Yu Sheng, the sound of horses' hooves around them was like thunder, and the entire army was like a black cloud pressing down on the realm, rushing straight to the enemy formation.
Huang Yuchen's face was solemn, holding a long knife in his hand, his fighting spirit was surging, his legs tightened the horse's belly, and he rode the horse forward, constantly accelerating.
At this moment, the enemy phalanx in front of them had been charged defenseless, and the two teams of sergeants had rushed out of the enemy formation at this moment, cutting the enemy phalanx into several pieces.
At this moment, Yu Sheng came with a large army and paved the way.
"Kill!"
The rest of his life showed a cold look, and the red fighting spirit of the whole body surged out, the long knife in his hand, wrapped in the crimson fighting spirit, and the two enemy soldiers died on the spot.
The sergeant behind him was like thunder, killing in an instant, the halberd was in front, waving vigorously, and for a while the soldiers touched each other, the blood rushed to the sky, and the sound of shouting and killing was not heard.
Huang Yuchen rushed into the enemy formation, clenched the long knife, poured the fighting spirit into the long knife, soaked it in a pale yellow color, and slashed a heavily armed enemy soldier with a swing of the knife.
The battle intent in his heart was surging, and the pre-war tension disappeared. At this moment, Huang Yuchen had only one thought in his heart, to kill all the enemies in front of him.
The black clouds pressed the realm, and in a moment, Yu Sheng took two thousand soldiers to penetrate the enemy camp, kill to the other side of the camp, and turn the horse's head.
Looking back, the two teams of cavalry on both flanks rushed into the enemy camp again at this moment, and the enemy camp that had become a plate of scattered sand was once again chaotic.
"Divide five hundred people, kill all the enemy troops in the camp, and the rest of the people will charge and kill me again!" Yu Sheng quickly ordered, galloped his horse again, and went straight to the enemy army. The sergeant behind him immediately divided into 500 cavalry, entered the blazing enemy camp, and wantonly slashed and slashed all the enemy troops who were already in a mess.
Huang Yuchen's heart was full of fighting spirit, a rush to kill, slashing left and right, the enemy army had no power to fight back, and the enemy soldiers who died under Huang Yuchen had four or five people. And the enemy soldiers who died at the hands of the rest of their lives have already dozens of people.
Entering the enemy formation again, slashing and slashing with a knife, at this moment, the originally dense enemy phalanx has been scattered, and there are not many remaining enemy troops. Huang Yuchen's battle intent was monstrous, and when he looked forward, he saw that not far away, several enemy soldiers were surrounding a person, struggling to resist the long halberd dancing by the surrounding knights, but the surrounding knights did not surround and kill the past, and with a touch, they used the power of the forward rush to continue to slash and kill the enemy troops in front.
"This person must be an enemy general!" Huang Yuchen looked at a middle-aged man who was surrounded by people and panicked, his eyes were bright, he slapped his war horse fiercely, galloped forward, and went straight to this small group of people.
"Kill!"
After a few steps, Huang Yuchen killed in front of these people, the long knife waved out, and a substantial sword qi broke through the air, and went straight to the front of an enemy soldier to slash;
The pale yellow sword breathed through his body and burst open in his armor, and the sergeant was hit by the blow, and his entire chest burst open along with the armor, killing him instantly.
"Yang Yan Blade!" Huang Yuchen shouted, and swung a knife again, and a sword qi broke through the air again, heading straight for another sergeant.
This sword qi is the method of praying for heaven, the method of fighting for the sun, this method of battle was born on the battlefield, and it is the secret of praying for the emperor's clan.
A knife was swung out, and the sword qi broke through the air, hitting another sergeant, who swung his knife to defend, but the sword qi penetrated straight through his body, and exploded straight in his body, bursting his chest, and scattering the armor outside.
Huang Yuchen laughed, and was about to swing his knife again, but he felt a red shadow flash around him, and several sergeants in front of him immediately fell to the ground, and died with several knives in his body, Huang Yuchen hurriedly turned around, but saw Yu Sheng with a serious face, staring at him coldly.
Huang Yuchen was shocked when he saw this, and he was at a loss, he suddenly realized that he had unknowingly used the royal secret book. This Yang Yan battle method can only be used by the Emperor Qi clan, and he uses it at this moment, isn't it self-reporting?
Yu Sheng glared at Huang Yuchen, the team of sergeants in front of him had been all slashed and killed, he looked left and right, and saw that there was no sergeant who had the idea to say here, and breathed a sigh of relief slightly. Riding forward, he paced in front of a middle-aged man who fell to the ground and looked like a general, pointed a long knife at his head, and said in a cold tone, "You saw it all?"
The middle-aged general's eyes widened, and he didn't say anything, but his whole body trembled, obviously he was on the verge of collapse because of fear.
"I ask you, did you see it. Yu Sheng's tone was cold, and his voice was very soft, but he could hear the middle-aged man clearly.
"I'm fighting with you!" Suddenly, the middle-aged man rose from the ground, his whole body was full of yellow fighting energy, and a long knife in his hand came straight to the head of Yu Sheng.
"Whew!" a red light flashed out, and Huang Yuchen saw a stream of blood, rising from the sky, and the general's head left his body, flew high, and landed on the grass beside him.
"Boom. The corpse fell to the ground, making a dull sound, Yu Sheng's face was cold, and a knife killed the general, rode back, walked to Huang Yuchen's side, his tone was cold, and he whispered to Huang Yuchen: "If you use the secret method easily, I will tie you up and send you back!"
Huang Yuchen was stunned on the spot, he was so warlike that he forgot to keep his life experience secret, and Yu Sheng stepped forward to warn, his tone was cold, which made him wake up suddenly.
And he had never heard this tone for the rest of his life, and at this moment, he felt like he was falling into an ice cave.
"No!" Huang Yuchen immediately clenched his fists to the rest of his life and replied firmly.
Yu Sheng glanced at Huang Yuchen, stopped talking, instigated his horses, and rushed towards the enemy troops on the side again.
