The Rhapsody of Mounted Blade Players
Chapter 185 Siege of Albuk Castle (Part )
At this time, more than fifty miles away from Albuk Fort, Li Rufeng was leading an army to advance in the snow. After all, she also knew that Jiang You was facing a siege of hundreds of thousands of troops, and it must be very hard to defend. Most of his subordinates are militiamen who lack training and are poorly equipped. The casualties at this time are definitely not small, and it is not known how many defenders are left to fight.
Li Rufeng was now afraid that Jiang You's troops were insufficient, so he wanted to lead his troops there as soon as possible to avoid Albuk Fort being captured.
However, because she was in such a hurry, she did not have time to send out too many scouts to properly detect the situation ahead. A small group of enemy scouts hid under the snowdrifts and successfully evaded the detection of their forward troops, and discovered the arrival of Li Rufeng's army. .
After discovering that the enemy had arrived with so many reinforcements, he quickly mounted his horse and rushed back to the camp to report to King Yarogork.
After King Yarogork learned that the enemy reinforcements had arrived, and there were more than 70,000 troops, he couldn't help feeling very depressed. After all, after so many days of consumption, he could feel that the Albuk Fort The defenders are almost out of ammunition and food, and the casualties are definitely not small. The remaining defenders are also very tired. As long as he is given a few more days, he will definitely be able to capture the castle.
But he didn't expect the enemy's reinforcements to arrive at this time. In order to consume the strength of the defenders in the city these days, he suffered a lot of losses in his own troops. More than 60,000 regular soldiers were killed in the battle. As for the civilians, more More than 100,000 soldiers were killed in the battle, and even more soldiers were injured. Now there are only about 200,000 soldiers in his camp who can immediately go into battle. Facing the more than 70,000 soldiers who have just arrived from the enemy, With the new force, King Yarogork was not sure of victory.
Therefore, although he was very reluctant, King Yarogerk could only prepare to lead his army to retreat.
In order to prevent the defenders in the city from discovering that his side had withdrawn, King Yarogerk even asked his soldiers to set up a large number of straw men in the camp overnight, and covered these straw men with some broken leather armor. and cloth armor, pretending to be soldiers on guard.
After doing all this, King Yarogerk began to lead his army to quietly retreat from the camp.
If it were Jiang You, he would definitely not be able to see any flaws in King Yarogerke's arrangement. However, the person keeping vigil in his place today was the veteran Diligang, who followed Sol It can be said that the Viscount has encountered all kinds of enemies during his expeditions in the north and south, and he was also not careless when facing the opponent King Yarogerk.
The reason why Diligang was able to discover the flaw was because he found that the soldiers standing guard in the enemy camp seemed to be like zombies, and they had not moved for a long time.
This is obviously very abnormal, especially on such an icy and snowy night. If a person does not move for most of the day, then he is probably frozen. Otherwise, in order to avoid freezing his hands and feet, he always I will be active from time to time.
But now the soldiers standing guard in the enemy camp have not moved for a long time. A thick layer of snow has fallen on their bodies, and they are about to turn into a 'snowman'.
Although Diligang could not directly see clearly that the enemy soldiers were disguised as scarecrows because of the distance, he had already noticed something was wrong.
In order to verify his suspicion, Diligang quickly informed Jiang You and Reyek of the news. At the same time, he quickly summoned two thousand elite soldiers, secretly opened the west city gate, and then quietly crossed the city under the cover of night. , approaching the enemy camp little by little.
At this time, most of the soldiers in the camp had been evacuated by King Yarogerk, leaving only about 8,000 civilians, still carrying some heavy items such as heavy slings. Couldn't leave the camp completely.
Since the main force has withdrawn, there are naturally no soldiers standing guard. There are only a lot of straw men in the camp.
This led to Diligang leading his troops to get within ten meters of the camp without being discovered by the other party. On the contrary, Diligang, with his excellent eyesight, discovered those who were slowly withdrawing from the camp pushing a lot of supplies. Enemy civilian husband.
At this time, Diligang had already realized that the main force of the enemy army should have quietly withdrawn. Feeling that he had been tricked, Diligang was furious. He immediately roared and led his two thousand soldiers into the enemy camp. In the camp.
After actually entering the camp, Diligang saw clearly that the soldiers standing guard inside were all straw men, and the tents were all empty. However, the fires had not been completely extinguished. It should have been before the civilians left. He added firewood again, hoping to deceive them for a while longer.
When the civilians saw the enemy troops suddenly coming to kill them, they were so frightened that they dropped their baggage trucks one by one and started to run away screaming.
It’s no wonder that the morale of these civilians is so low. After all, during the siege of the city these days, too many soldiers and civilians died in battle. The corpses were piled up layer after layer under the city of Elbuk. , if it weren’t for the cold weather now, so many corpses might have caused a plague.
It is precisely because they have personally experienced the power of the soldiers of the Qinglong Empire that when these poorly equipped civilians saw the enemy coming, they had no idea of resistance at all and ran away one by one.
Because the sky was very dark and the snow outside the city was very thick, Dili Gang led two thousand soldiers to pursue them for a long time, but they only killed more than five hundred civilians and captured about a thousand prisoners.
Seeing that the remaining enemies had completely fled, Dili Gang had no idea of continuing to pursue them. Instead, he quickly returned to the city with his troops, and at the same time asked Jiang You to inform Li Rufeng that the enemy troops had withdrawn during the night. information.
Li Rufeng was also very surprised after receiving the news. She did not expect that the enemy army would retreat so decisively, but soon she understood that the news of the arrival of her own reinforcements was known to the enemy commander, so the enemy army was able to withdraw. So fast.
In order to prevent himself and his soldiers from running in vain, Li Rufeng quickly adjusted his marching direction, preparing to block the retreating enemy army on the only way to the Kingdom of Wikiya.
After a night of hard marching, Li Rufeng noticed that there seemed to be enemy troops in front of her when the sky brightened slightly. She wiped the snowflakes on her eyelashes and looked closely, and found that they were indeed enemy troops, and they were on their way. The speed seemed to be a little faster than hers. At this time, more than half of the enemy troops had passed that road, and only about 100,000 enemy troops had not yet passed.
"Damn it! Chase me! Try to leave as many enemy troops as possible!" Li Rufeng roared and then led more than a thousand cavalry under her command to chase them out. Although there were fewer cavalry under her command, she still had four generals. Following her in the attack, the four generals were Hu Sanniang, Zhu Long, Zhu Hu and Zhu Biao.
With these four generals with Huajin cultivation on the side to help him, Li Rufeng dared to lead more than a thousand cavalry directly towards the enemy army.
Due to the snowy sky, the enemy army only discovered Li Rufeng and the others at this time. King Yarogerk quickly sent out five thousand cavalry to meet Li Rufeng and the others, hoping to stop the enemy army and give his own army a chance to retreat. time.
However, as soon as the five thousand cavalry sent by him came into contact with Li Rufeng and the others, Li Rufeng chopped down thousands of them like melons and vegetables. The remaining cavalry were immediately frightened and did not dare to step forward.
The enemy did not dare to step forward, but Li Rufeng led Hu Sanniang and the others to continue to advance like chopping waves, knocking off the enemy cavalry along the way.
"Damn it! You are all useless! Stop it, stop them!" King Yarogerk shouted while sending five thousand cavalry to support.
At this time, the infantry on Li Rufeng's side also rushed over under the leadership of four generals. These four infantry generals were Xue Yong, the sick insect, Jiao Ting, the faceless leopard, Tang Long, the golden leopard, and Hou Jian, the gibbon.
Although these four people were originally not as strong as Hu Sanniang and the others, they joined the Qinglong Empire earlier than Hu Sanniang and the others, so at this time, their cultivation levels have reached the realm of energy transformation, and their combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated.
"Kill!" Xue Yong, the diseased beast, was holding a simple sword and was the first to charge into the enemy's formation. The sword was as bright as lightning. Every time he swung the sword, he would definitely knock an enemy cavalry off his horse.
Gibbon Hou Jian followed closely behind, holding a long spear. This weapon was most suitable for fighting cavalry. Hou Jian only needed one shot to knock the enemy cavalry off their horses.
The faceless Jiao Ting and the golden leopard Tang Long in the back are both powerful warriors. Among them, Jiao Ting holds a big axe. With one blow of the ax, he will often split the enemy's men and horses in half.
And Tang Long was holding two pumpkin hammers. Every time he hit them with the hammer, he would break the enemy's bones and muscles, even if the opponent was wearing heavy armor, it would be useless.
With the cooperation of these infantry who arrived later, Li Rufeng quickly defeated the five thousand newly reinforced cavalry, and then continued to kill the enemy infantry without stopping for a second.
Upon seeing this, King Yarogork was so angry that he personally led two thousand of his most elite Vekian knights to fight over, and collided head-on with more than a thousand cavalry led by Li Rufeng.
"Bitch! Die!" King Yarogerke held a moon-blade ax and struck Li Rufeng fiercely.
However, Li Rufeng just waved the eyebrow-tip knife in his hand and knocked away the moon-blade ax that the opponent had struck. Then with a backhand knife, he knocked King Yarogerk off his horse.
If you look carefully, you can see that a long crack has been cut in the armor on his chest. This is the result of Li Rufeng's mercy. Otherwise, with this knife, it will not only be the armor that is split, but also the armor. His chest will also be split open.
Before King Yarogerke, who was knocked unconscious from the fall, had time to get up from the ground, he was captured alive by two Azure Dragon Empire cavalry who arrived later.
When the Vekian knights saw that the king was captured, they immediately became anxious and rushed over frantically, trying to rescue King Yarogork.
But the four of them, Li Rufeng and Hu Sanniang, were standing in front of them. Those Vekia knights came to kill one by one, and soon the ground was filled with corpses. The corpses were piled up there, making it difficult to move forward.
Xue Yong and the others, at this time, led the infantry and unknowingly surrounded the enemy cavalry, and began to continuously shoot and injure these cavalry with artillery and muskets from the left and right wings and the rear.
