The windows of the buildings on both sides of the street suddenly lit up with fire, accompanied by a burst of bean-like gunshots. The second after the gunshots rang, dozens of cavalrymen were among the imperial cavalry running on the street. He was hit by a bullet and fell from the horse’s back screaming.
“There are enemies!”
“The enemy is hiding in the building next to you!”

And the cavalry who were shot down from the warhorse, except for the unfortunate one who was just hit by the bullet in the face, the breastplates of the rest blocked the bullets that hit them. They felt pain in the area where they were hit.
These lucky cavalrymen were quickly dragged behind the horses by other comrades who jumped off the horses. After taking a few breaths, they also endured the pain and got up from the ground.
“Rush in and kill them!”
An officer in the team pointed to one of the buildings with flickering figures behind one of the windows, and ordered the surrounding cavalry, but at this moment, a bullet hit the metal helmet he was wearing, and the impact was generated. He suddenly lost his balance and fell to the ground.
“Company commander! Are you alright?!”
The soldier next to him didn’t see where the bullet hit, but only saw the officer hit by the bullet and then fell to the ground. He rushed up anxiously and helped the officer up. Helmet, shook his dizzy head, and said:
“I’m fine, the **** bullet hit my helmet, you guys keep attacking!”
Seeing that the officer was not injured, the surrounding soldiers were relieved. They clenched their sabres tightly and rushed out of the bunker while the enemy was loading their rifles, running towards the buildings on both sides of the street.
bang bang bang-
This time, the cuirassiers who rushed out were hit by sporadic shots on both sides, and the body of a short running cavalryman was hit by a flying bullet, and the bullet burst into a spark when it hit the cuirass. , the impact also made the cavalry stumble and almost fell, but he quickly stabilized his balance, endured the pain in the part where he was hit, and continued to run forward.

A cavalryman who rushed in front flew and kicked open the closed door of the residential house, and rushed in first with a saber, but when he rushed to the stairs, he suddenly found a soldier half-squatting at the stairs on the second floor. Aim the dark rifle muzzle in his hand at himself!
“not good!”
Before the cavalry could dodge, the Enjun soldier pulled the trigger, and the lead bullet pushed out by the gunpowder directly penetrated the cavalry’s breastplate at close range, and the latter fell backwards with a scream. .
“damn it!”
The people who rushed in behind the cavalry witnessed this scene with their own eyes. They cursed angrily and ignored the fallen comrade-in-arms.
After killing an enemy, the soldier who fired the gun was about to get up and evacuate, but he did not expect that the speed of the angry imperial cavalry was faster than he thought. The distance between them, the knife fell and slashed **** his back.
“Uh-“
The Enjun soldier who had been slashed in the back let out a piercing scream and fell heavily to the ground. The angry imperial cavalry then stepped on him and pulled out the saber.

The cavalry company commander with a dent on his helmet personally led the team out of the building. He threw a beautiful knife flower, threw off the blood stains on it, and then inserted it back into the scabbard.
After he came out, he saw that the uninhabited street was now occupied by imperial soldiers in blue-blue military uniforms. They put their rifles on their shoulders and walked into the city in a neat queue.
The warhorses left by the imperial cavalry outside were also properly gathered up by the infantrymen. A man in an officer’s uniform stood beside the warhorse, watching the cavalry company commander come over, and raised his hand to salute first.
