Realm of Power

All this happened so suddenly. The scene in front of them made the senior officials of the Song clan stare straight in their eyes. Not to mention the senior officials of the Song clan, even the officers of the Song clan who were fighting fiercely in front were swooped down like a flock of eagles in the sky. The Long family cavalry under the attack could not even be found in the north. The mountains in the south are rugged and difficult to navigate. There are hundreds of thousands of mountains. It has been said that since ancient times, it has been a battlefield for infantry and mountain soldiers. When the cavalry's horses entered the southern mountains, they followed the natural spider web, and there was no place to display it. Therefore, all the battles that broke out in the southern mountains were fought by infantry. The whole southern mountainous area is at a loss as to the cavalry battle.

In the Sancha River, they also saw the Baihe soldiers, who were known as the most elite of the Yelu family. Several times they fought on the river, but the Baihe soldiers were completely unable to exert their strength. No matter how powerful the grassland warriors were, they were weak on the deck of the ship. The grassland Human bows and arrows, under the indiscriminate bombardment of the Song ship's catapults, had no chance of being fired, and even the ship capsized.

Therefore, the Song people did not feel how powerful the Baihe pro-army, which claimed to have swept hundreds of thousands of Zhongbia troops, was. Instead, they believed that the so-called Baihe pro-army was just superficial, and Zhongbia The reason why the Chaotang was defeated was entirely due to the combat power of the Zhongbia Chaotang Army. During the catastrophe of the Imperial Capital, most of them were bloodbathed by the grassland army, and what was left was just a few courageous remnants. If they faced the Yelu family again and went south, they would naturally collapse without a fight, not to mention that the Yelu family had to attack such a formidable enemy as the Imperial Thunder God. It’s no wonder that it’s a sharp weapon that swept through the Central and Asian military forces.

The nature of the mountain people is like this, they always like to compare with each other." The Baihe army of the Yelu family was also pinned down by us at the mouth of the Sancha River and they didn't even dare to get out of the boat. What kind of thing is the Long family in the southwest? After conquering Lichang, the Long family army is still They were not wiped out and annihilated in the same way, nor did they see that the Long family was any different from the others. "Since defeating Lichang and going deep into the southwest, all the tribes in the southern mountainous area couldn't help but feel a sense of contempt in their hearts, "The Long family in the southwest, too. Don’t dare to do that!”

No one thought that invading the southwest and conquering Lichang would rely on the power of large ships rushing thousands of miles. They swept along the river and encountered only the local motley crew of the Long Family Army.

Only at Longyingkou can we really fight a battle with the Long family's regular army. The Shan army attacked with several times its strength, but they were still blocked at Longyingkou for two days. I thought that the overall situation was under control, but at this moment, it was At Longyingkou, we suddenly encountered a cavalry assault and pressure.

"The cavalry attack can be so ferocious!

The leader of the southern mountain people looked miserable. In his line of sight, he saw a group of cavalry rushing into the crowd at the entrance of Long Ying. The attack was so fierce, the heavy sword slashed at the neck, and the fierce spear penetrated. It penetrated people's limbs, and there was a huge shower of blood. Spreading out in the air, the galloping horses knocked down the defeated troops in a row, followed by horse trampling, knife slashing, and spear picking. The ruthless pursuit was like a strong wind, killing the mountain troops crowded together like a storm. Sweeping through, leaving only corpses on the ground.

Tens of thousands of people were beaten so hard that they couldn't even stand on their feet! Is this still a human being? This is the power of the cavalry assault. No wonder the hundreds of thousands of troops in the Zhongbia court were swept away by tens of thousands of Yelu troops like a strong wind sweeping leaves. Such a ferocious assault was like exploding in their minds.

Blood blows in the wind, and the sound of fighting shakes the sky.

Song Que stood at the bow of the boat, his eyes narrowed into a thin line, with a faint flash of light. He calmly put his hands behind his back and just looked at Long Yingkou in front of him.

The Long family, which had no cavalry, actually started to recruit cavalry. I heard that they had a fierce encounter with the grassland army under Tianlang City in the northwest wilderness, and almost intercepted and killed Yeluguda in Tianlang City. Song Que was not very interested in cavalry at first, but now he is thinking about it. Do the Song people also want to develop their own cavalry? After all, the Song people will not stay in the southern mountains forever. If the Song people want to get out of the mountains and ascend to the altar of the royal power of Central Asia, they will inevitably confront the northern cavalry. , and the best weapon against cavalry is still cavalry

"Is it reinforcements?"

At Longying's mouth, Long Xueshan was covered in blood. The moment the Long family cavalry rushed out, he was also confused. Could it be that Master Longshan's main force has returned to the army? As he passed by, he saw the wings-spread symbol on the arm guard of a cavalryman flashing by. He was shocked and immediately recognized it, "It's the Guanglin Guard Cavalry from Longhua! Why, why is it the Guanglin Guard Cavalry?" Long Yingkou!" Long Xueshan's voice was trembling, his eyes were complicated and incomprehensible. Instead of showing any joy at the arrival of the reinforcements, he looked confused. Who drove the Guanglin garrison out!

The Guanglin Guard Cavalry was a training team built by Long Po after he became the head of the Long Family. He spent a lot of money to buy the best war horses from the empire, and then built a training team with the best disciples of the Long Family as the backbone. Yes, a training team. The Guanglin garrison cavalry is not in the order of battle. If it does not go to the battlefield, it will not form an army at all.

Because every one of them is a truly outstanding disciple of the Long family

It is the head of the family, Long Po, who can train the backbone of officers in order to expand the Southwest Army. It is no wonder that these hundreds of cavalry are so tough, but also, every cavalry lost here is a future officer of the Long family. It is the essence of the entire Long family generation.

Long Xueshan gritted his teeth, ignoring the extremely painful wounds on his body, and rushed towards the nearest group of Long family cavalry, shouting, "I am Long Xueshan, who is your highest officer!" "Uncle," he heard it was Long Xueshan, The cavalry team quickly stopped their horses, and with the light of the battlefield, they could see Long Xueshan's face clearly. The cavalry captain leading the team quickly saluted.

"You are Huatang!" Long Xueshan was also stunned. He recognized the cavalry captain, who turned out to be his nephew. After casually learning that Long Hua personally led the army to rush out from Guanglin, Long Xueshan's face became even more expressionless. It was so ugly that I couldn't help but ask, "Isn't Longhua in Kaishan? When did he return to Guanglin? Could it be that Mr. Longshan's The main force has returned." Long Xueshan's lips trembled, and his voice couldn't help but pause. He only felt a chill throughout his body. "If Master Longshan's main force has returned to Guanglin, why haven't you come to rescue Long Yingkou yet! I and the tens of thousands of elites in Longyingkou are already abandoned in the eyes of Master Longshan!"

"Uncle, the empire has defeated Kaishan, and Master Longshan has returned to Guanglin, but... the fastest update..."

The cavalry captain looked at Long Xueshan's pale face and glanced at the bloodstains on Long Xueshan's armor. In the firelight, the tail of Long Xueshan's arrow was still exposed on Long Xueshan's chest, which looked even more desolate. The cavalry captain could not continue for a while. Tell me Go, look away with an ugly face, what should I say? Do you want to tell Long Xueshan that the Long family Kaishan was defeated? More than 100,000 Long family troops returned to Guanglin, but less than 30,000 were returned. In Guanglin, Master Longshan also strictly ordered all armies No support is allowed at Longyingkou! These hundreds of cavalrymen still violated military orders and were transferred from Guanglin privately.

I am afraid that at this moment, Guanglin City will also be in trouble. How many children of high-ranking families in this cavalry have come out this time. Longshan can strictly order the troops not to leave Guanglin, but their Guanglin Guarding Cavalry It's not considered a formal combat order, they are just a training cavalry,

But at this moment, it is not easy to retreat. The Long family cavalry, which rushed in with all their strength, after breaking through more than a dozen lines of troops, the attack momentum has lost. Because the impact is too strong, many cavalry have been deeply embedded in the mountain army. , as the disintegration of the mountain army gradually subsided, the Song army also saw that the number of Long family cavalry in the surprise attack was only a few hundred. If they had not been blinded just now, they would have eaten the hundreds of cavalry who came to the door in one bite. Got it

"Tangle them, don't let them escape." With overwhelming shouts, tens of thousands of mountain troops came over to fight. In the crowd, several Long family cavalry were directly pulled off their horses by the counterattacking Song mountain army. Some Long family cavalry I wanted to turn around, but I was immediately overwhelmed by the crowd in front of me.

"Hold on and fight to the death!"

Long Hua shouted with a ferocious look, Longyingkou was the last barrier for Guanglin. The Long family had no reinforcements, and they were the only reinforcements. Blood was flying in the rain, the sword was curled and the gun was broken, the armor was chopped into pieces, and the weapons were blocked. The clang of the block, the falling of the Long family knight The soldiers were hacked to death with random knives. There was a crowd in front of them. The ground was stained red with countless blood. Long Hua's voice directly made Long Xueshan vomit a mouthful of blood. What are you holding on to? If everyone dies here, the Long family is doomed. , someone must drag this kid back,

"Go and bring Long Hua back and send him back to Guanglin immediately. Long Yingkou has been breached. What can a few hundred of you do? Are you going to die with me?"

Long Xueshan's face was ashen and he said loudly, "The Guanglin Guard Cavalry is too important to the entire Long family. If they all die in the battle at Longyingkou, the future of the Long family will be ruined. I, Long Xueshan, can die at Longyingkou." Well, why don’t you die here? It’s not worth it.”

"Ah!" The cavalry captain's eyes were full of bloodshot eyes. He held his head high and let out a cold cry towards the sky. Guang Lin refused to save him, but Long Xueshan still guarded Long Ying's mouth, letting him shout with the fingers holding the weapon. There was a gurgling sound, why, why not save Long Yingkou! This is the last barrier in Guanglin, and it is the place where tens of thousands of Long family elites fight. The Long family was defeated in Kaishan. Could it be that the Long family's fighting spirit was also defeated?

"Execute the order. As the guard of Longyingkou, I order you to evacuate Longyingkou immediately! Otherwise, I will kill myself in front of you." Long Xueshan gasped in pain. It was only his physical strength and willpower that could persist until now. At this time, what is needed is not support, but to give up everything and escape to Guanglin as quickly as possible.

"Want to run away now? It's too late!"

On the big ship in the river like a giant beast, Song Que had his hands behind his back and his eyes were as cold as a knife. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised. Standing in his position, he could still see the situation in front of him very clearly. Hundreds of cavalrymen Although the raid was fierce, it could not reverse the situation of the battle. It was just that the Song Mountain Army had never encountered cavalry. Being blindsided for a moment, the people in front could not stand and were pushed back by the cavalry. The people behind had to retreat, so it looked like such an embarrassing situation. Although the cavalry assault was fierce, the war horses When I finally ran out of strength, I had already pushed for such a long distance, how much further could I push? As long as the opponent's horsepower is exhausted, it is the moment when the mountain army counterattacks and kills them all.

"Tell the front, hold on, no one is allowed to escape!"

Song Que raised his hand and said coldly, "How can you let the meat in your mouth fly away? Although the reinforcements from the Long family did not wait, the hundreds of elite cavalry who waited for them were not in vain. War horse resources are also scarce for the Southwest Long Family. With hundreds of fine war horses, I am afraid that It can only be purchased with more than 100,000 gold coins. The cavalry with such good horses will probably not have a low status in the Long family. Each one is very precious. Killing these cavalry is tantamount to killing the Long family. Jingqi, when the time comes, use the heads of these hundreds of cavalry to knock on the door of Guanglin!

"Kill, leave no one behind!" The shouts of tens of thousands of people came like an overwhelming force. The Long family cavalry who rushed into the mountain army fell off their horses one by one.

The Long family cavalry was thrown to the ground by the impact, and even Long Hua was lying on the horse's back covered in blood. He was desperately dragged back by Long Xueshan's nephew. Behind them, the dense Song clan mountain army was chasing fiercely.

"It's over! It's all over!"

Long Hua was lying on the horse's back. The blood on his hand holding the reins of the warhorse had already coagulated on the reins, but Long Hua could not feel it. His hand was numb from the pain. He watched the Long family cavalry following him being drowned by the crowd one by one, and the tears in his eyes could no longer be controlled.

At this moment, a group of Long family infantry with more than a thousand people rushed into the surging Song clan mountain army like a hurricane. "Kill!" Hiss The shouts of killing were as loud as a broken drum, showing their fierceness and determination. Countless spears were thrust forward, fiercely knocking over the Song clan mountain army that was chasing after the cavalry. They were the two thousand remnants of Long Xueshan's army that followed the cavalry. When the cavalry retreated, they rushed forward with a desperate momentum. Two thousand people faced the wave of the ten thousand mountain army. "Long live the Long family!" A Long family infantryman shouted sadly, and was pierced by countless spears that rushed over. The cold and shining spear heads exploded from his back with hot blood. On the ground, blood flowed like a canal. The bright red blood was like water squeezed out of a broken pipe, and it shot out from the gaps in the armor!

On the big ship on the river, Song Que withdrew his gaze from Longyingkou and turned to the deck. The sound of the mountain army cheering came from the direction of Longyingkou. After taking Longyingkou, Guanglin would be the next one. Although no one knew that Song Que used Longyingkou as bait, it didn't matter at the moment. The strategic layout was ever-changing. Not luring out Guanglin's army did not necessarily mean failure. Similarly, taking Longyingkou would mean pushing the morale of the army, which had accumulated for more than ten days since entering the southwest, to the peak. With the support of the large fleet and the momentum of Longyingkou's victory,

Go straight to Guanglin. Are you still afraid of not being able to take down Guanglin?

"Master, urgent report from Lichang!" At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps came, and a Song clan member ran over from the deck in a panic, whispering "Lichang, lost!"

Song Que was stunned by the shocking news
