"Salon, it's your turn to perform!" The Gangfei people in the distance were retreating in panic. The fat man withdrew his gaze and told Salon behind him with a stern expression, "From now on, the eleven thousand Guards Cavalry will return. You command"

"What do you mean, Your Majesty?" Salon, who was standing behind him, looked surprised for a moment.

"From here to the border between the two countries, there are 50 miles of flat land." The fat man looked at the land in the distance with burning eyes, raised his finger and pointed in the direction of the setting sun, and said slowly, "Show the strength of the imperial cavalry and intercept before the border." Zhu Gang is not a human being, don’t let the people of Dongting, who have always worshiped the strong, underestimate the empire!”

"I see. No wonder His Majesty gave up so simply before!"

Salon said to himself in his heart, his eyes suddenly became hot, "50 miles of flat land!" Your Majesty has already laid out a killing array in advance for Gang Feiren's defeat. This terrain is the best battlefield for cavalry to gallop in groups. Your Majesty, don't worry, your subordinates know what to do! "Salon put his hand on his chest and saluted the fat man solemnly, with a hint of murderous intent on his lips. He held a knight's helmet decorated with eagle wings under his arm and left quickly with three generals under his command.

"Your Majesty ordered, open the gate of the fortress!" A cavalryman came galloping over and pulled the horse fiercely at the city gate. Behind him, the horse's hooves rumbled, dust rolled up, and the black cavalry gathered like a wave.

Salon was wearing a black general armor and was at the front of the queue, with two Samor sabers stuck on his back as always. Eleven thousand Imperial Guards Cavalry armed to the teeth lined up into eleven thousand-man teams, slowly Moving forward like a wave, the horse's hooves trample on the cold ground,

Because it was a pursuit battle, each of the Guards Cavalry had replaced their heavy armor for assault combat, and instead wore light cavalry armor with locking plates. They wore the red tassels of the Guards Cavalry on their heads, and carried short-handled cavalry crossbows behind their backs. .

On the hook on the side of the war horse, on the left is a three-meter cavalry lance bursting with cold light, and on the right is a falcon-shaped cavalry shield with golden hot edges. The war horse is lightly armored, with only a part of the armor on the front. The cold light is specially used to attack the infantry queue. of spikes,

"Quick, open the city gate!"

The guard officer of the city gate shouted loudly. He was frightened by the battle in front of him and shivered. The fierce battle just now made his blood boil. The tens of thousands of Guards cavalry were ready to go, and the killing intent brought by them seemed to have cooled the air nearby. The soldiers at the city gate ran to the fortress gate in panic and took down the thick wooden bars inserted horizontally. , such wooden poles are as thick as a man’s waist. There are ten such wooden poles blocking the city gate.

"quack!"

Pushed by ten soldiers, the huge city gate of the fortress slowly opened with a friction sound. "Wow!" A fierce wind blew in from the gap in the open city gate. A diffuse smell of blood blew in with the wind,

The Gangfei people had just exited the U-shaped ambush circle. Tens of thousands of shocked Gangfei soldiers were laxly lining up under the urging of the officers. Tens of thousands of their colleagues died. The morale of Gang Fei's army has suddenly reached its lowest point.

"Form up the team immediately, we can't delay here! It will be terrible if the other party catches up!" Lan Mia was panting and adjusting her armor, running in a hurry just now. After letting the entire army disperse, he checked the damage with some concern, which was close to 60,000 people. As soon as his heart dropped to the bottom, his one mistake cost 60,000 lives! Lan Mia closed her eyes in pain, but the more dangerous thing was yet to come.

"We must retreat to the border, that is the safe area!" The generals were summoned, and Lanmia gave the order to the general behind him. Then, he felt a rumbling sound coming,

"This is?"

Lan Mia raised her head in confusion,

"It's not the cavalry, is it?" There was a murmur from the general.

The golden sunset in the distance is like a horizontal line, turning the vast plain into two worlds of light and darkness. Rows of black lines emerge from the top of the hills, first one team, then two teams , ten teams, cavalry in black armor were densely packed on the top of the hills. The rays of the setting sun shone on the hills. The afterglow of the sky in front of us seemed to linger on the earth and could not dissipate for a long time.

"You are just a gangster, not a human being!"

Salon narrowed his eyes slightly and reined in his horse at a high place. After chasing for more than an hour, he finally caught up. The vast expanse of land and the inhuman and scattered resting queue below were all in front of the eyes of all the Guards Cavalry. spread out,

The wind blew violently, turning the ground into a blur,

There is a falcon battle flag erected on the back of the armor of each team of Guards Cavalry captain. According to the establishment of the Falcon Guards Cavalry, one team has one hundred people, and a total of one hundred and ten flags are fluttering in the strong wind. The sound was like the sound of intensive war drums, and the black cavalry armor was spread out under the setting sun, revealing a ferocious look like blood.

"Asshole, it's the chasing cavalry!" Lan Mia finally saw the true face of Black Line. His body trembled uncontrollably and his eyes bulged.

"Don't be chaotic, stand firm!" The Gangfei officer below shouted to maintain the panic of the troops, mobilizing elite soldiers to form a gun formation to block the speed of the cavalry.

"Attack! For the sake of the empire, for your majesty!"

Salon was riding on a black horse, his eyes coldly swept across the stunned non-human beings below. His muddy one eye suddenly opened wide, and he drew out the sharp sword with both hands. "Rumble" The horse's hooves turned into muffled thunder. , the ground shook violently, making everyone's hearts beat wildly. "Killing" the entire row of Falcon Guards Cavalry raised their horse hooves, dust flew into the sky, the horses' hooves rumbled, and the ground trembled. The Guards Cavalry rushed out from the heights of the hills, attacking like an avalanche through the curvature of the slope.

"Stay steady, there is nothing to be afraid of. The enemy's cavalry cannot break through the spear array!"

The officers of Gangfei pulled out their snake-shaped swords and shouted hysterically, words that they did not believe. Their faces were pale, and the soldiers' teeth involuntarily made a "clucking" sound. Their faces were pale, and the ground was shaking. Like it will crack at any time, In front of the soldiers' eyes, the bright sword lights all over the mountains and plains rolled in like lightning. The flying horse hooves were rapidly expanding. The black cavalry above were clearly visible. The cold cavalry spears jumped up and down with the horse heads. The spearmen were even afraid. closed eyes

"Long live Gangfei..."

A Gang Fei infantry captain shouted desperately, his voice stopped abruptly at the moment of collision.

The spear of the Guards Cavalry stabbed into his body mercilessly. His whole body seemed to explode, and the spearmen's queue was knocked away by the greater reaction force. The barrel of the gun broke, and blood spilled out from the place of collision. There was almost no obstruction for ten seconds. The thin temporary gun array was like a building block without support, and was completely destroyed by the powerful Falcon Guards Cavalry.

"kill!"

The scene of the Guards Cavalry cutting into the Gangfei army was like a ball of spinning spiked flails hitting the thin armor. The fragments flew and it was extremely tragic. The Gangfei army that had just experienced a disastrous defeat was torn apart again. The cold light of the Falcon Cavalry sword danced like snowflakes. Hundreds of non-infantry soldiers were directly involved in the galloping horses and turned into a ball of flesh on the ground.

"Pfft"

The cavalry galloped in groups. Along the way, huge heads were chopped off by sharp blades and flew into the air. Pillars of bright red blood sprayed up to two meters. The cavalry came like rolling thunder. Thousands of flying horse hooves kicked down from the front, and the corpses were like in the storm. Rolled up leaves. Knocked down, trampled, and finally torn apart by galloping horses,

"Order the legion to move closer to me. Raise the legion's flag of death! Kill those who break up!"

Lan Mia's face was extremely solemn. He knew that if the situation could not be stabilized, the army would be completely defeated. There are still 50 miles of plains from here to the border. Under the pursuit of the cavalry groups, no one will be able to return alive. Now he still has 50,000 people, one-third of whom were withdrawn from the ambush circle, and the other two-thirds are intact troops. The troops that were attacked were the 5th and 6th Infantry Regiments, these two There were more than 20,000 soldiers in this infantry regiment. Under the impact of the swift cavalry group, they melted like auspicious snow illuminated by the sun.

Under the fierce assault of the cavalry, the flanks of the Gangfei army were like long lines broken by the storm in the vast wilderness. They were swept away by the whole team of Guards cavalry and fled. The horseshoes of the cavalry group cut through the side of the Gangfei army. wear,

The tumbling heads rolled on the dirt, and the ground was dyed red.

Large pieces of broken corpses were piled on top of each other, and the horse's hooves flew up to collect the blood-soaked soil. They threw the red and black soil violently backwards into the air and then smashed it down heavily, like eagles falling from the sky. Zhong rushed towards him, making a fierce metal collision sound.

A group of General Gang Fei's personal cavalry were caught off guard and were hit by a whole row of Falcon Guards cavalry wearing spiked armor.

The dismounted war horse let out a shrill cry, and the general leading the team was thrown directly from the war horse, and was trampled to pieces by countless horse hooves roaring from behind. The armor was split open, and a group of people fell on their backs!

"Woo woo" means the bugle sound of gathering towards the regimental flag resounded in the sky, and the Congolese and African troops began to gather towards the center line

"Lord Lanmia, our army has been completely dispersed and we really can't assemble it!" A Gangfei general was supported by the guards and cried to him with blood all over his body. It was the 5th Infantry Regiment that was first attacked. Chang Antila, the death report of Dorai, commander of the 6th Infantry Regiment, has been received.

"As a general, what's the use of you if your subordinates are scattered and running for their lives!" Lan Mia looked at him coldly, pulled out the snake-shaped sword with a ferocious expression, and pierced the general's chest with a fierce sword.

"Sir, our army has really tried its best... It's a pity that we can't go back..." Antisu looked pained, holding the sword that pierced his chest tightly with both hands, and fell to the sky with a wry smile, and the body was smashed heavily. On the ground, a puff of dust rises

"Send the order, and use this as an example. If anyone breaks up again, they will be executed immediately!" Lan Mia pulled out the sword on the corpse, swung it hard, and a streak of blood hit the ground. He waved his hand with a cold face to his guards. They cut off the head of Antissu and hung it on their own battle flag. After receiving the news, the generals of Ganfei turned pale with fright. The Antilla whom Lanmia killed had accompanied Lanmia many times. Loyal subordinates who have gone through life and death,

It is said that the two will soon be married. Lanmia's son is about to marry Antisu's daughter. But they are such close partners. Lanmia will kill them if they say it. If it were anyone else, he would probably not even hesitate. If there is no chance, then order the execution!

The generals felt chilled in their hearts, but at the same time they were determined to fight to the death. They knew that Lanmia was right. If they didn't want to be killed by the black cavalry, they had no choice but to fight to the death!

"The whole army will fight to the death, and those who retreat will be killed!"

Like animals forced into a desperate situation, the generals led their own cavalry directly towards the assault line of the Falcon Guards.

Most of Gangfei's personal guard cavalry are heavy cavalry wearing heavy armor, wearing thick golden battle armor, and their helmets have long hanging golden brocade feathers. A knight's shield in one hand, a snake-shaped epee in one hand, and a yellow cloak behind him.

"kill!"

The cavalry of both sides collided heavily, and the cavalry's weapons collided violently. This was a contest between two elite imperial troops. The Falcon Guards Cavalry was like a guillotine that was constantly squeezing forward.

The Gang Fei Guards Cavalry were like a long steel wall, breaking in front of the side sword, but one team rushed in, and the second team pressed in. Team 3. . .

The battlefield has gone crazy. Both sides are fighting to the death. Shields, armors, weapons, and bodies are too close together. Everything that can hit has become a powerful weapon to attack the other side. The two sides are like two high-speed collisions. The steel walls collided together.

"kill"

Salon led the thousand-man team to cut through the inhuman flank first, swung the knife violently, and rushed forward amidst the collision of metal and flesh, like a dry barley stalk dropped by a guillotine. Squeeze and break the enemy from the middle,

Suddenly feeling his eyes empty, Salon realized that he had rushed out from the group of Gangfei soldiers, but the other teams did not rush out so quickly.

"Sir. Something is wrong!"

A Falcon Guards squadron leader approached from behind and whispered, "The enemy has not stepped over, but is getting stronger and stronger. Our losses are also increasing. If we continue to fight like this, it will not be good for us!"

Long reined in his horse, turned around and took a look at the battlefield, his eyebrows slightly furrowed,

The sharp spikes of the Guards Cavalry caught the opposite Gangfei Guards Cavalry off guard. The spikes tore the Guards Cavalry's horse apart from the side. Even if he did not die on the spot, the cavalry on top would be thrown off in excruciating pain. , the non-guard heavy cavalry also let Many of the Guards cavalry fell. Inspired by such a scene, the Gangfei infantry rushed up like crazy. Countless spears pierced the bodies of the Guards cavalry. The bright red blood mixed with the internal organs, like a man who had been squeezed to pieces. It exploded from the inside like a persimmon,

"You are right, the counterattack of the Gangfei people is indeed getting stronger and stronger. The participation of the Gangfei cavalry has caused us great losses. Raise the retreat flag! We will evacuate from the east." Salon's expression was angrily stained with human blood. He inserted his two swords into their scabbards. He was surprised by the opponent's tenacity, but it was not enough to shake his fighting spirit. In order to boost the morale of the Guards cavalry, he loudly ordered, "There are still 50 miles from here to the border. We There’s plenty of time to look for opportunities! “

The Guards Cavalry quickly withdrew from the side, leaving behind the bodies of non-soldiers.

"We repelled them!" The surviving Gangfei soldiers raised their weapons violently and cheered loudly. Even the generals also cheered.

"Yes, we repelled them!" Lan Mia raised her head, glanced at the bloody head of an old friend hanging on the battle flag, and then glanced at the land covered with tens of thousands of corpses. Her eyes were complicated, almost losing her strength. Sitting on the ground,

He knew that the other party's evacuation was just because he did not want to get into a deadly fight with him. It would soon be dark, and that was the most terrifying time for the enemy's cavalry raid. In the dark sky, the swift cavalry raid was like coming from the darkness. It's like a sharp sword that makes people unable to defend themselves. Next time, I don't know how many people will be able to stand!

The wind picked up in the night and blew across the plain in front of me. In August, the Nordic Barrow had already entered the frost. The soldiers of Gangfei were wearing thin clothes and threw away all their baggage in order to escape. The soldiers wrapped their bodies and shivered with cold. In order to avoid being discovered, the Gangfei people did not light the torch and moved towards the default border direction, but the moving speed was very slow. The majestic army when they set out was now in a bleak state.

The camp was full of wounded soldiers, and all the war horses were used to transport the wounded soldiers. Even Lanmia himself did not have a war horse, so he could only walk with difficulty in the long night. The stretcher was held on the ground, making scraping sounds in the night. ,

It didn't last long for Gang Feiren to repel the pursuing cavalry's Xinyue.

Because they suddenly and cruelly discovered that behind them was a 50-mile-wide plain area, which was the most terrifying area. For 50 miles, even an all-out march regardless of fatigue would take a night. They were racing against death, but they With only two legs, Death has four. The soldiers quickly turned from joy to despair.

"Sir, this is our battle damage report." A general gave Lan Mia the battle damage report he had just calculated.

"Just tell me how many of our personnel are still able to fight!" Lanmia stopped directly without reading the report, and asked in a low voice with a serious face. In fact, he no longer wanted to read any more reports on battle damage. , killing old friends to stabilize the morale of the army, making him feel guilty all the time,

"Less than 25,000 people! And morale is low!" General Gang Fei said with an ugly face. "In order to repel the opponent's cavalry, only 7,000 of our army died in the battle, but there were 15,000 wounded! In order to take care of We still need to dispatch some troops to assist these wounded soldiers! "

"Leave behind all the seriously injured soldiers! Those who can't move, leave behind all of them!" Lanmia hesitated for a moment, and said in a cold tone, "We can't continue to move slowly like this. The enemy's cavalry is cruising nearby. I can't let more people sacrifice their lives for the benefit of a few people. And do you really think they can still go back alive? Once they encounter the enemy's cavalry, they will be the first to be slaughtered! Letting more people go back alive is our most appropriate choice!" (To be continued..)
