The thief of the fortress dominates the world

Chapter 32

Centipede-faced Tartar smashed Jiang Chuan's head with his huge mace.

Jiang Chuan blocked the big shield with his left hand amidst the roar, and the mace hit the big shield heavily, making a loud noise, and the huge force was transmitted from the shield to Jiang Chuan's arm, making him charge forward. The speed stopped, and the whole body swayed, almost falling backwards.

However, the mount under his crotch is a spiritual war horse after all. Seeing the danger of his master, his body miraculously stopped, and he stood up, using the angle of leaning back to relieve a large part of his strength.

In addition, Jiang Chuan's feet firmly stepped on the stirrups, and his legs tightly clamped the horse's belly, so he was not thrown off the horse.

Damn, I really have some strength, but I'm not a vegetarian either.

Jiang Chuan was furious at being hit by the stick, and the lord's sword in his right hand slashed straight at the centipede-faced tartar as he fell backwards.

The wind was whistling, and before the centipede-faced tartar had time to be happy, he saw a huge long sword cutting towards his neck, and hurriedly leaned back to try to avoid it, but he didn't expect that the sword was longer than his neck. Predictably, the blade directly hit his left shoulder.

The gigantic sword split through the flesh and bones of the Tartar, slanted down, and chopped off half of the Tartar's head in one fell swoop.

The foul-smelling bright red blood gushed out strongly from the cleaved neck of the tartar, pouring over Jiang Chuan's head and face, adding a lot of evil spirit to his original silver armor.

Jiang Chuan was full of confidence, and continued to hold the shield and swing the sword, and lightly pinched the horse's belly. The horse neighed under his crotch, accelerated instantly, and rushed to the depths of the Tartar formation behind Ran Wu.

Ran Wu's movements were much more calm and steady than Jiang Chuan's. They basically smashed shields and slashed with swords. Every time he moved, a Tartar fell off the horse, and almost no Tartar could go through a round in his hands.

After all, he is indeed the most powerful knight among all the arms of the fortress, much more powerful than himself, the second-level lord who is still in the growth stage.

Looking at the invincible Ran Wu, Jiang Chuan followed behind with both envy and pride.He knew that one day he would become as powerful as Ran Wu, or even stronger than him, and become the most powerful warrior in the world.

Of course, his job is still to be a lord, not a warrior fighting on the battlefield.

However, a lord who has not personally experienced the battlefield will not be a good lord. The soldiers admire the real strong.And for him, the battlefield is also the only way for him to transform, to grow his courage, and to overcome the fear in his heart.

Although there were few people on Jiangchuan's side, under the impact of his and Ran Wu's two heavy armored knights, the sparse battle formation of the Tartars was quickly torn apart and the formation was disrupted.

The twenty light cavalry behind them took advantage of the situation to expand their assault openings, blocked with their bucklers, and stabbed with their spears. One by one, the Tartars were stabbed off their horses, but the strict cone-shaped formation was still maintained.

The cavalry attack is not like the infantry fighting endlessly, but it can be divided at a touch.

Soon, under the leadership of Jiang Chuan and Ran Wu, the fortress cavalry pierced through the formation of the Tartars and rushed to the back of the Tartars.

Ran Wule's horse stopped, turned his horse's head, and faced the Tartars, preparing for the second round of attack.

Jiang Chuan also turned his horse's head and looked at the light cavalry behind him. Most of them were still there. In the first round of hedging, only three cavalry were lost. This made him feel relieved and at the same time heartbroken.

Looking at the Tartars on the other side who also turned their horses and prepared for the second round of hedging, the number of people was obviously reduced by half compared to before, and there were less than 50 riders left from the original [-] or so riders.The others were all lying on the ground at this time, either half-dead with broken tendons and bones, or dying with blood all over their bodies.

This huge loss made the Tartars no longer have the arrogance and arrogance they had before, and all of them looked dignified, looking at Jiang Chuan and the others hesitantly.

Jiang Chuan saw the loss of the Tatars so much, and felt much less heartbroken about the loss of the light cavalry, and shouted loudly: "Dog Tartar, let you see the majesty of my Daming cavalry today!"

As he spoke, he waved his big sword, and with a long howl, he took the lead and charged at the Tartars again. Ran Wu followed closely behind, and the light cavalry also launched a charge with a loud shout.

The horseshoes were like thunder, and dust was everywhere.

The remnants of the Tartars were also aroused to be ferocious, and they rushed over fiercely with their horses.

A few hundred steps away, the remaining 30 or so Tatars watched the battlefield from a distance. After seeing the heavy losses of their own people, the original mentality of watching the excitement gradually put away, and the contemptuous and arrogant smile on their faces It has also disappeared.

"Master Niu Lu, these Ming army cavalry are very evil." A lean man in leather armor said to a burly man with a leather hat on his head and leather armor, who was groaning next to him.

"Auden, what do you see?"

"Master Niu Lu, the Ming army has always seen our Eight Banners warriors and had to flee on the sidelines. If they defended the city, they might still have some courage, but when did they dare to confront our Eight Banners warriors in a field battle?"

"Besides, these people don't look like the Ming army in terms of armor style and charging formation, and their bravery seems to be no less than our Eight Banners warriors, so I think these people can't be those cowardly Ming soldiers."

The Tartar named Ao Deng analyzed it.

If Jiang Chuan heard what this guy said, he would definitely praise him for his vision.

"Then you say they are not the Ming army, and where are they from? We have never seen such a force before? Why did they suddenly rush out to attack us?" the lord Niu Lu asked puzzled.

"Master Niu Lu, I don't know about this. I don't know where these cunning Han people came out of. But since you dare to provoke our invincible Eight Banners warriors, let us send them to meet their Lord Yama. .”

Although this tartar called Ao Deng had a bit of eyesight, he was also limited. In the end, he suggested using brute force.

"Okay, Ao Deng, you lead ten warriors to watch these two-legged sheep, and I will lead other people to attack Halbala and the others back and forth, and send all these Han people to their hell."

Master Niulu laughed loudly, and with a wave of his hand, more than 20 horsemen rushed up from behind and quickly assembled.

In fact, Jiang Chuan was also paying attention to the movements of the remaining Tartars. After finding out that they had a tendency to encircle them, he became secretly anxious. While charging, he turned his attention to the southwest direction.

If two groups of Tartars encircled him back and forth, no matter how fierce he was with Ran Wu, he would suffer heavy losses, and he might fall into the tight siege of these Tartars.

Although the heavy cavalry were very fierce, they only had two cavalry, and they were still beginners. Once they were besieged by the Tartars and lost their speed, they would really be close to death.

These light cavalry are not many in number, and they have also lost part of their combat power. If they are attacked by the enemy, they will definitely lose them all.

He originally thought that after seeing such heavy losses after the first charge, these Tartars should retreat in spite of difficulties and take the rest of them to flee for their lives in a hurry. This is in line with his understanding of the army in the era of cold weapons.

But I didn't expect these Tartars to be brave enough to die. They dared to rush forward after so many died, and even wanted to encircle their own side. It was really courageous.

But after thinking about it in a blink of an eye, I can understand that these Tartars have won battles with the Ming army for many years, and gradually established a psychological advantage. There is an illusion that Lao Tzu is the best in the world.

Therefore, if you want to break their psychological advantage, you will not be able to succeed with just a few casualties. You also need to defeat them in constant battles, so that they will finally run away when they see their "Jiang" banner. .

Of course, that's all for the future, and now the first thing to do is to save your life.

Soldiers, it's up to you whether you can defeat these Tartars, but don't let your lord hang here, I don't want to be the shortest-lived traveler.

While looking southwest, Jiang Chuan muttered a prayer in his heart.

And the Tartars in the rear had already started trotting, ready to attack.

"Lord Niulu, look over there!" Suddenly, a tartar shouted, pointing to the southwest.

Niulu Ezhen of the Tartars looked to the southwest, and saw the smoke and dust billowing, tumbling forward, and there was also the sound of horseshoes like a shower, and there were bursts of shouts.

Experienced fighters knew this to be a sign of a fast charge of cavalry.

Niu Lu'erzhen's expression changed, and he reached out to stop the men behind him who were about to charge.

"Master Niu Lu, this should be the arrival of the main force of the Ming army. It looks like there are five hundred horses." The tartar who was the first to notice the abnormality just now said loudly.

"Retreat! Everyone retreats, don't worry about the two-legged sheep, we will come again next time!" Although this Niu Luerzhen is brave, he also knows that he is definitely not the opponent of the Ming army.

They killed so many of them just now with just a few forwards. If the main force arrives, they will all have to stay, so it is not difficult to make this decision.

And this news should be reported back to Lord Jiala as soon as possible, telling them that a group of cavalry with strong combat effectiveness has appeared in the Ming army.

These Tartars came and went like the wind, from preparing to charge to retreating, it was completed within a dozen breaths.

The rest of the tartars who were about to launch a hedge against Jiang Chuan and the others were also dumbfounded when they saw that the boss had run away.

Of course, they also found the enemy reinforcements rolling in. At this time, they no longer had the confidence to fight fiercely, so they found a direction and started galloping.

Looking at the billowing smoke and dust, Jiang Chuan finally let go of his hanging heart.

Although the tartars ran away and achieved their pre-war goals, they couldn't let them run away so easily.

"Chase!" Jiang Chuan waved his hand, and the light cavalry behind him suddenly turned and chased in the direction where the Tartars were fleeing.

Jiang Chuan stopped his horse slowly, and laughed when he saw Ran Wu who also stopped his horse and pulled down his helmet.

They are heavy cavalry, and their horses and people carry a lot of weight. The charge just now has actually consumed more than half of their strength, and they will be exhausted if they continue to chase.

Moreover, chasing the remnants of the enemy is the strength of the light cavalry, so they will not fight with others.

He pulled down his armor, took off his helmet, and shook his head violently. The sweat drenched Ran Wu next to him. Looking at the Tartars fleeing in embarrassment in the distance, Jiang Chuan suddenly felt a real pleasure in the battle of gold and iron horses.

　The second one arrives.Good night everyone, don't stay up late
