An enemy appears in front
The outpost Rangers kept spreading the news to Ye Tianlong's Central Army
How many people are there?
Ye Tianlong asked while ordering the entire army to prepare for war
The little one counted a little, and there were about 5,000 people
The cavalry who was questioned wanted to dismount and report to his commander, but Ye Tianlong waved his hand and replied respectfully after bent down and saluted.
Ye Tianlong looked at the surrounding environment and immediately had an idea in his mind.
He each sent a thousand cavalry to ambush on the hills on both sides, waiting for his orders
Then he took the remaining thousand cavalry and retreated a little for a while and set up a formation on an open grassland
A moment later, the enemy's banner appeared in the sight ahead, and the black figure gradually occupied Ye Tianlong's vision.
The first thing that caught my eye was several teams of infantry holding spears, behind them were heavy infantry wearing armor, behind them were archers, while the few light cavalry were placed on both wings of the team as the troops to support them.
The situation in front of him is similar to Ye Tianlong's judgment. According to the information obtained, there are not many cavalry in the organization of Xiahe's army. After erecting the anti-flag, it is naturally impossible to establish a powerful cavalry in a short period of time, because it requires a lot of money and excellent talents.
Therefore, in Xiahe's army, the only one who really plays the protagonist is the infantry
What's more, Xia Yun, who sent troops to Dengzhou, was just the vanguard of Xia He's army, and it was even more impossible for him to carry many cavalry soldiers.
This is also one of the reasons why Ye Tianlong dared to bring three thousand armored cavalry to fight Xia Yun.
After all, the mobility and attack power of these armored cavalry are incomparable to infantry.
In the imperial army, in terms of combat power, no field force can compete with the armored cavalry guarding the imperial capital.
Although the enemy saw Ye Tianlong's cavalry lined up in front, they still advanced forward calmly. The calm pace and strict formation made Ye Tianlong secretly admire Xia He's military administration.
Ye Tianlong has always fought with the enemy with the Fast Army. Now facing some of the Fast Army, he realized the pressure on the opponent by the strictness of the Fast Army.
This 5,000 Xia He army advanced to Ye Tianlong before setting up a formation. After the light infantry, mainly spearmen, stood up, two thousand heavy infantry lined up in a row behind them, while the cavalry retreated on their wings to protect the archers' team.
Ye Tianlong did not take any action when the opponent set up the formation, which surprised the commander of the Xiahe Army. Ye Tianlong should use the mobility of the cavalry to launch an offensive before they set up the formation. If the cavalry waited until the infantry set up the formation before charging, it would be a death sentence
Did he believe that the combat power of armored cavalry can really break through the dense formations of infantry?
When he was suspicious, Ye Tianlong had already blown the horn and urged a thousand armored cavalry to approach slowly. Without thinking about it, he also ordered the trumpet to blow, and the entire formation was advanced forward
The archer behind was about to attack for the first time, suddenly he felt the ground under his feet tremble slightly, and then the rushing sound of horse hooves sounded on both sides like rain.
Damn it! It's the enemy's cavalry!
Xia Hejun immediately realized that he had been trapped. Ye Tianlong stood in front of them just as a bait. The real attack was launched from their wings and behind them. This is the biggest weakness of the dense infantry formation. If you want to turn around and fight, you will inevitably disrupt the already arranged formation, and there is not much time left for them to change the formation.
From the armored cavalry appearing behind the hills and they rushed to Xia Hejun, it took a moment to rush to Xia Hejun, but the enemy archers had only had time to fire an arrow. And because of the sudden incident, the originally prepared volley turned into an unorganized diffusing. In addition, the charge formation of the armored cavalry was relatively wide, and the damage caused to them by the bow and arrow was very minor.
At this time, the light cavalry guarding the two wings of the formation turned their horses and rushed up against the armored cavalry, buying more time for their own formation to change the formation
But the gap in strength between them and the armored cavalry was revealed at the moment of contact. Whether in training, equipment, or cavalry combat effectiveness, they were more than one level apart
The cavalry of both sides quickly collided completely, and swords hit violently in the air, bursting out with sparks. The next moment, blood smoke rose and screams that kept ringing together formed the first movement on the battlefield.
The light cavalry's sword slashed on the body of the armored cavalry, making a sound of metal collision, while the sword swung by the armored cavalry tore apart the leather armor and the flesh inside.
Blood gushed out, and the severe pain made him unable to sit upright on the horse. After shaking twice, he fell heavily to the ground.
The armored cavalry coming up from behind ruthlessly stepped past him, blood splashed, and the last sarcadre of the light cavalry seemed so slight amid the roar of the horse's hooves.
Fast's armored cavalry tore open the two wings of the Xiahe army without any difficulty, and the enemy's light cavalry could not even slow down their charge.
Except for a few armoured cavalry who were divided into chasing the fleeing light-armed cavalry and sweeping the battlefield, most armoured cavalry rushed towards the two wings of Xiahe Army in a one-and-a-half-moon formation.
The Xiahe army did not lose its fighting spirit because of this. The flexible light infantry spearmen rushed toward the two wings from the gap between the queues, trying to block the attack of the armored cavalry, so as to protect the archers who have no melee ability and allow them to perform terrible long-range attacks.
Unfortunately, they had a slight collision with the heavy infantry moving at the second line, causing some chaos in the entire formation.
Ye Tianlong was waiting for this opportunity. With a command, he rushed out first. The thousand armored cavalry behind him shouted in unison, each raising the weapons in his hands, followed his commander closely, and launched a fierce charge towards the enemy in front of him.
Well-equipped armored cavalry charge so quickly that they approached the enemy in an instant
The spearmen who had no time to turn around were chopped down one after another
The heavy infantry behind immediately stood in front and resisted tenaciously, but their resistance became insignificant in front of Ye Tianlong. The artifact Fire Sword was like a dazzling rainbow, rolling up blood rain all over the sky. Every wave sucked away the enemy's life.
The commander's brave performance has inspired the strong fighting spirit of the armored cavalry. They are like tigers and horses like dragons, and they are harvesting a large number of lives from the enemy at all times.
But the Xiahe army, who was attacked, was still striving to persevere. Their discipline and fighting spirit were not inferior to their strong opponents.
But the infantry, which had lost its cover, was undoubtedly the most vulnerable opponent in front of the armored cavalry. They soon fell down rows of corpses and large numbers of broken spears and swords on the battlefield.
Ye Tianlong broke through the three fronts of the enemy's heavy infantry in a row. He didn't know how many enemies fell under his sword. The blood filled him with people and horses. The artifact fire in his hand even showed a strange brilliance because it absorbed a large amount of life, and it burst out with breathtaking blood flames from time to time.
A tall enemy roared and slashed over with a sword. Ye Tianlong did not avoid it, and he also made a sword. He cut his opponent and his sword into two halves. A bloody rain bloomed in front of his eyes.
From the corner of his eyes, he saw a cold light suddenly piercing from the left, and his energy rushed towards him, showing his opponent's strength.
A spear swung past his shoulder
While sitting upright, Ye Tianlong cut down the heavy infantryman who wanted to take the opportunity to attack with his backhand with a sword.
The battle lasted for a quarter of an hour, and the Xia He army finally couldn't resist it. As the central army's flag was chopped down by Ye Tianlong, the entire formation was declared disintegrating. The soldiers who were completely defeated dropped their weapons and turned back to flee.
The next battle became very simple. The armored cavalry followed the Xia He army and chased after more than twenty miles in one go before stopping.
In this battle, only 142 armored cavalry lost, while more than 3,000 Xia He's army was killed, and the rest were completely disbanded, almost a complete victory.
After a simple rest, Ye Tianlong immediately commanded the army to continue to advance quickly. The Xia He army along the way was about to collapse and had no power to resist. Ye Tianlong's army allowed to retake the towns along the way one by one.
The continuous victory made Ye Tianlong and his troops all have a high morale. They are moving faster and faster. Sixty miles away from Chihe City, they encountered a Xiahe army starting from Chihe City. As soon as the two sides fought on the banks of the Po River, a tributary of Chihe River, the Xiahe army retreated.
Go forward! We will have lunch in Chihe City
Ye Tianlong was full of energy and raised his sword and ordered loudly
The ambitious cavalry with armor made a loud noise, biting the enemy's tail and chasing them.
After this period of battle, they have no choice but to take their opponents seriously.
The retreating Xia He army crossed the Po River and retreated to the flat ground behind. Ye Tianlong and his armored cavalry also rode their horses across the Po River one after another, and they were full of fighting spirit.
Xia He's army retreated to the flat ground did not hold back and continued to retreat under the pressure of armored cavalry.
Two and a half miles away from the Po River, there is a slope covered with woodland. Once we get here, the soldiers of the Xiahe army quickly disappear into the woodland.
After stepping onto the flat ground, Ye Tianlong felt a sense of uneasiness in his heart. When he chased under the slope, his uneasiness in his heart widened. Especially when he saw the lush forest above the slope, a very uncomfortable feeling arose from Ye Tianlong's body.
stop!
Baiyun jumped up the slope, and suddenly his front foot softened. Although Ye Tianlong immediately lifted the reins and stood up again, he finally determined the source of his uneasiness and couldn't help but shout.
The city guards held the horses under their crotch one after another, looking at their commander in surprise.
Ye Tianlong had no time to care about their feelings and carefully observed the surrounding environment.
On the flat ground between the Po River and the slope, there are several crisscrossing bushes that extend to a dry river in the distance, with dense shrubs growing on the banks of the river.
Looking back at the nearby woodland that made me feel uneasy, Ye Tianlong knew something was wrong
The entire battlefield was silent. Apart from the uneasy neighing sounds of the war horses under the crotch of the city guards, he could not hear any other sounds.
As soon as the fleeing Xia He army entered the woodland, it seemed to disappear out of thin air, without any movement.
There can only be one explanation for this situation, that is...
Thinking of this, Ye Tianlong's heart beat twice quickly. He looked up at the sky and took a deep breath. He practiced all kinds of meridians and calmed down. In an instant, his mind began to extend in all directions. The first thing he was to be affected was the forest not far away in front of him.
The expanded mind had just passed the rows of trees in front, and suddenly a terrible force hit him head-on, interrupting Ye Tianlong's aura and cutting off the connection between his spiritual eye and himself.
So awesome!
Ye Tianlong let out a breath, suppressing the horror in his heart
This situation has never been encountered by him after he practiced the Eye of the Mind. What is certain is that there is a master with powerful martial arts hidden in the woods, and he is very familiar with martial arts such as the Eye of the Mind.
Instinct tells Ye Tianlong that his current situation is already very dangerous, especially in the woodland in front of him, there must be something very dangerous lurking, and he must leave here immediately
But Ye Tianlong didn't let Ye Tianlong think about it anymore, three thin black shadows flew out of the woods, as fast as thunder, and headed straight for Ye Tianlong.
The javelin shot from Sanzhi high-speed, whizzing with a strong whirlwind. The slightly trembling gun body made a slight crisp sound in the air. It had not yet approached, and its infinite potential made Ye Tianlong breathing difficult.
Ye Tianlong shouted with a stern voice, slashing the tip of the javelin in the middle with a sword, and shooting it down on the ground in front of the horse.
At the same time, a very fast fake body twisted like a whirlwind and passed the other two javelins.
Two screams sounded in Ye Tianlong's ears at the same time, and the two armored cavalry beside him could not avoid such a fast javelin.
After being hit, their thick breastplate burst, and a big hole was broken, and blood surged out along the patterns on the javelin.
The javelin has been penetrated through the body of the armored cavalry, and the tail of the gun stuck on the sternum before stopping the force of advancing.
The two armored cavalry fell heavily on their horses, shocking everyone
The attack of these three javelins was like a signal, taking it as a prelude. In the blink of an eye, a shocking shout sounded around. Except for the forest on the slope in front of you, there was no movement on the other three sides, a large number of Xiahe soldiers emerged from the rest of you, including tens of thousands of people. They formed a dense square formation and surrounded Ye Tianlong and the others from a distance.
The armored cavalry were shocked. They had no idea that they would encounter an ambush from the enemy here. The unstoppable march along the way made them unable to change their thoughts for a while.
Looking at the dense forest made of spears around, the steel defense line formed by shields, the shadow of death emerged in the hearts of every city guard.
Obviously the enemy has been carefully prepared. The spear used by the spearmen in their infantry phalanx is specially used to deal with cavalry, which is two feet and five feet long. In this way, the powerful armored cavalry have no chance to get close to their bodies.
A cold sweat broke out on Ye Tianlong's forehead. He suddenly realized that the defeat of Xia He's army along the way was planned to lure him to the battlefield they were scheduled to. After being surrounded by three sides, the mobility of the armored cavalry could not be fully utilized, and the woodland in front even restricted the movement of the armored cavalry.
Sir, look, an armored cavalry beside Ye Tianlong said anxiously
Ye Tianlong turned his head and saw two rows of trees in front of the woodland falling down inexplicably, with a stunning momentum.
In the dust, several figures came out of the woods
Walking in front was a tall and shiny black horse. The knight on the horse was wearing bright silver armor and a purple-black spear in his hand. He looked leisurely. It seemed that what he was about to face was not a desperate battle, but a nobleman's afternoon safari
Behind him were seven burly men. Each man was wearing knee-length chain mail, and helmet was not wearing a helmet on his head. Instead, he wrapped his hair in various turbans. The weapons in his hands were heavy weapons such as giant swords and warhammers.
When we got closer, Ye Tianlong saw more clearly
The knight in front of him actually had a handsome face, two sword eyebrows inserted diagonally into his temples, a pair of bright and lively eyes, with a flying look on his face, a slight smile hanging on the corner of his mouth, his expression was so arrogant, and it seemed that nothing was placed in his eyes.
Lord Ye, your speed really surprised Xia Yun
This handsome knight showed his white and neat teeth, looking casual and free.
However, finally, I met the famous Dongtu here. Xia Yun was really lucky in his three lives.
Ye Tianlong's heart tightened and then relaxed again
Since Xia Yun personally led the main force to wait for him here, it seems that Dengfengcang is in good condition for a while.
But this is a big deal, and the price of underestimating the enemy is a little too high
Lord Ye is a smart person and should know his current situation
Xia Yun didn't care about the change in Ye Tianlong's expression on his face, and continued to speak on his own
His spear swung, pointed at the infantry phalanx that was slowly advancing from three sides, and said to Ye Tianlong very easily: Su Wen Ye's bravery shocked Esniya and was favored by the beautiful God of War. Xia Yun would like to ask the adults for advice with the black dragon spear in his hand.
Ye Tianlong looked around and saw the fear in the eyes of everyone in the city guards around him, and knew that they had lost their fighting spirit. Xia Yun's move was really cruel. He created a situation where Ye Tianlong and the others had no way out. Before they had even fought, they had greatly hit the opponent's aura.
After thinking a little in his mind, Ye Tianlong gritted his teeth secretly. He had to make a move and led the entire army forward. Now there are dense enemy infantry formations behind and on both sides. If the armored cavalry rushed over like this, it would be a journey of death.
Although the direction Xia Yun stood in front of him was the forest where the cavalry could not play the most, if there was no ambush from the enemy in the forest, there might be a glimmer of hope.
What's more, there are more than 30,000 soldiers on the three sides. Even if there are soldiers lying in the woodland, there will not be too many.
Wait, when I rushed up to fight Xia Yun, you immediately rushed up and broke through the direction of the woodland
Ye Tianlong whispered orders to his subordinates, and slowly raised the artifact in his hand and began to be lucky.
Sir, ahead is the enemy's chief general, and the woodland...
The subordinates looked at his coach in surprise, wondering if Ye Tianlong was panicked.
On our left, the enemy's square array looks the weakest, and near the dry river, there are bushes. Their square array is also greatly restricted. It is better for us to break through this direction, right? Another subordinate also suggested on the side.
No, if they can lure us here, they must have a very careful plan. How could they leave such a big weakness for us?
Ye Tianlong flatly opposed it and no longer gave his subordinates a chance to say more. He kicked Bai Yun in the abdomen with both feet, rode forward, and shouted: Xia Yun, if you are not afraid of death, come over!
The city guards couldn't help but shake their heads secretly, but since the commander had already given the order, they had to act according to their orders.
The order was quickly conveyed, and all the soldiers of the city guards who heard it were complaining secretly. Thinking about the enemy's chief general, their main force must be around them. With the advantage of the terrain, the armored cavalry wanted to break through in this direction, and they were simply sent to death.
It seems that Lord Ye wants to die on the battlefield. Since that's the case, let's sacrifice our lives!
The soldiers of the City Guards had such an awareness in their hearts, and instead threw away the fear in their hearts.
The momentum of the entire team was also boosted
Episode 18
The outpost Rangers kept spreading the news to Ye Tianlong's Central Army
How many people are there?
Ye Tianlong asked while ordering the entire army to prepare for war
The little one counted a little, and there were about 5,000 people

A tall enemy roared and slashed over with a sword. Ye Tianlong did not avoid it, and he also made a sword. He cut his opponent and his sword into two halves. A bloody rain bloomed in front of his eyes.
From the corner of his eyes, he saw a cold light suddenly piercing from the left, and his energy rushed towards him, showing his opponent's strength.
A spear swung past his shoulder
While sitting upright, Ye Tianlong cut down the heavy infantryman who wanted to take the opportunity to attack with his backhand with a sword.
The battle lasted for a quarter of an hour, and the Xia He army finally couldn't resist it. As the central army's flag was chopped down by Ye Tianlong, the entire formation was declared disintegrating. The soldiers who were completely defeated dropped their weapons and turned back to flee.
The next battle became very simple. The armored cavalry followed the Xia He army and chased after more than twenty miles in one go before stopping.
In this battle, only 142 armored cavalry lost, while more than 3,000 Xia He's army was killed, and the rest were completely disbanded, almost a complete victory.
After a simple rest, Ye Tianlong immediately commanded the army to continue to advance quickly. The Xia He army along the way was about to collapse and had no power to resist. Ye Tianlong's army allowed to retake the towns along the way one by one.
The continuous victory made Ye Tianlong and his troops all have a high morale. They are moving faster and faster. Sixty miles away from Chihe City, they encountered a Xiahe army starting from Chihe City. As soon as the two sides fought on the banks of the Po River, a tributary of Chihe River, the Xiahe army retreated.
Go forward! We will have lunch in Chihe City
Ye Tianlong was full of energy and raised his sword and ordered loudly
The ambitious cavalry with armor made a loud noise, biting the enemy's tail and chasing them.
After this period of battle, they have no choice but to take their opponents seriously.
The retreating Xia He army crossed the Po River and retreated to the flat ground behind. Ye Tianlong and his armored cavalry also rode their horses across the Po River one after another, and they were full of fighting spirit.
Xia He's army retreated to the flat ground did not hold back and continued to retreat under the pressure of armored cavalry.
Two and a half miles away from the Po River, there is a slope covered with woodland. Once we get here, the soldiers of the Xiahe army quickly disappear into the woodland.
After stepping onto the flat ground, Ye Tianlong felt a sense of uneasiness in his heart. When he chased under the slope, his uneasiness in his heart widened. Especially when he saw the lush forest above the slope, a very uncomfortable feeling arose from Ye Tianlong's body.
stop!
Baiyun jumped up the slope, and suddenly his front foot softened. Although Ye Tianlong immediately lifted the reins and stood up again, he finally determined the source of his uneasiness and couldn't help but shout.
The city guards held the horses under their crotch one after another, looking at their commander in surprise.
Ye Tianlong had no time to care about their feelings and carefully observed the surrounding environment.
On the flat ground between the Po River and the slope, there are several crisscrossing bushes that extend to a dry river in the distance, with dense shrubs growing on the banks of the river.
Looking back at the nearby woodland that made me feel uneasy, Ye Tianlong knew something was wrong
The entire battlefield was silent. Apart from the uneasy neighing sounds of the war horses under the crotch of the city guards, he could not hear any other sounds.
As soon as the fleeing Xia He army entered the woodland, it seemed to disappear out of thin air, without any movement.

But Ye Tianlong didn't let Ye Tianlong think about it anymore, three thin black shadows flew out of the woods, as fast as thunder, and headed straight for Ye Tianlong.
The javelin shot from Sanzhi high-speed, whizzing with a strong whirlwind. The slightly trembling gun body made a slight crisp sound in the air. It had not yet approached, and its infinite potential made Ye Tianlong breathing difficult.

The javelin has been penetrated through the body of the armored cavalry, and the tail of the gun stuck on the sternum before stopping the force of advancing.
The two armored cavalry fell heavily on their horses, shocking everyone

Lord Ye, your speed really surprised Xia Yun
This handsome knight showed his white and neat teeth, looking casual and free.
However, finally, I met the famous Dongtu here. Xia Yun was really lucky in his three lives.
Ye Tianlong's heart tightened and then relaxed again
Since Xia Yun personally led the main force to wait for him here, it seems that Dengfengcang is in good condition for a while.
But this is a big deal, and the price of underestimating the enemy is a little too high
Lord Ye is a smart person and should know his current situation
Xia Yun didn't care about the change in Ye Tianlong's expression on his face, and continued to speak on his own
His spear swung, pointed at the infantry phalanx that was slowly advancing from three sides, and said to Ye Tianlong very easily: Su Wen Ye's bravery shocked Esniya and was favored by the beautiful God of War. Xia Yun would like to ask the adults for advice with the black dragon spear in his hand.
Ye Tianlong looked around and saw the fear in the eyes of everyone in the city guards around him, and knew that they had lost their fighting spirit. Xia Yun's move was really cruel. He created a situation where Ye Tianlong and the others had no way out. Before they had even fought, they had greatly hit the opponent's aura.
After thinking a little in his mind, Ye Tianlong gritted his teeth secretly. He had to make a move and led the entire army forward. Now there are dense enemy infantry formations behind and on both sides. If the armored cavalry rushed over like this, it would be a journey of death.
Although the direction Xia Yun stood in front of him was the forest where the cavalry could not play the most, if there was no ambush from the enemy in the forest, there might be a glimmer of hope.
What's more, there are more than 30,000 soldiers on the three sides. Even if there are soldiers lying in the woodland, there will not be too many.
Wait, when I rushed up to fight Xia Yun, you immediately rushed up and broke through the direction of the woodland
Ye Tianlong whispered orders to his subordinates, and slowly raised the artifact in his hand and began to be lucky.
Sir, ahead is the enemy's chief general, and the woodland...
The subordinates looked at his coach in surprise, wondering if Ye Tianlong was panicked.
On our left, the enemy's square array looks the weakest, and near the dry river, there are bushes. Their square array is also greatly restricted. It is better for us to break through this direction, right? Another subordinate also suggested on the side.
No, if they can lure us here, they must have a very careful plan. How could they leave such a big weakness for us?
Ye Tianlong flatly opposed it and no longer gave his subordinates a chance to say more. He kicked Bai Yun in the abdomen with both feet, rode forward, and shouted: Xia Yun, if you are not afraid of death, come over!
The city guards couldn't help but shake their heads secretly, but since the commander had already given the order, they had to act according to their orders.
The order was quickly conveyed, and all the soldiers of the city guards who heard it were complaining secretly. Thinking about the enemy's chief general, their main force must be around them. With the advantage of the terrain, the armored cavalry wanted to break through in this direction, and they were simply sent to death.
It seems that Lord Ye wants to die on the battlefield. Since that's the case, let's sacrifice our lives!
The soldiers of the City Guards had such an awareness in their hearts, and instead threw away the fear in their hearts.
The momentum of the entire team was also boosted
