Rangers of the Three Kingdoms - C416
Seeing that the cavalry of Youzhou had broken through two lines of defense, Li Que could not help but become anxious. If she were to charge again, the cavalry of Youzhou would be able to escape from her sight. He thrust the spear into the ground and roared.
“All of you dismount, gather in a formation of spears. The last team will use Arrows to kill them!”
Due to Yang Lin being the first to use stirrup and saddle, West Cold Cavalry had started to be popular. As a result, West Cold Cavalry was also a master archer immediately, it was just that they were used to using spears when they were charging, hence it was inconvenient for them to shoot arrows. Since the cavalry of Youzhou has let the Arrows lead the way, then I will let you guys have a taste of the West Cold’s might.
The West Cold Cavalry jumped off their horses, and stabbed the tip of their thick and long spears deep into the soil, forming a 30-degree angle. The sharp tip of the spears was pointed right at the direction cavalry of Youzhou was heading towards. The soldiers in the last row stretched out their right legs and used their strength to press against the end of the iron spears of their comrades in the front row to prevent the spears from jumping up when they were hit.
When the Han Dynasty led Li Guang to the north, it was also to fight against the Huns, and not to fight against the Hun cavalry head on. With this set up, a war horse that could block the charge of the cavalry, no matter how fast it was, would fall at the bottom of the spear. With the archer behind them, he would be able to effectively kill the cavalrymen.
“Stop the attack!” Seeing Li Que open the Long Spear Array, Yang Lin immediately gave the order. Although it was impossible for Li Que’s Long Spear Array to stop the powerful impact of the cavalry of Youzhou, and it was possible for Li Que to easily crush all the rows and rows of Lance Soldier, her own side would still suffer heavy casualties.
Yang Lin looked around. Although the fog was still very thick, he could clearly feel that the two groups of riders that had just passed through the battlefield were gathering. It was very likely that they would attack from behind soon.
With regards to the topography here, she was relatively familiar with it, and knew that Li Que was taking the main road to the north. Now that Li Que had released the Long Spear Array, he could only avoid Li Que and break out from the northeast. Because the northwest direction was the hill area, which was not good for the cavalry.
Yang Lin called Taishi Ci over, and ordered him to take a detour to the northeast direction to break out of the siege. Unexpectedly, Taishi Ci became anxious after hearing that, and immediately said: “Lord General, now that Li Que is at the front and the cavalry is behind, if we go around, and they pounce on us at the same time, how will we deal with them?”
“Continue attacking and advancing. I’ll block them off, but they won’t dare to catch up.” In order to encourage Taishi Ci, Yang Lin even laughed and said proudly, “Haha … If Li Que dares to chase after us, I will make him never dare to mention cavalry of Youzhou again in this lifetime. ”
Taishi Ci couldn’t help but be taken aback. He didn’t know why Yang Lin was so confident. Although Li Que had just lost some cavalrymen, she still had two ten thousand people s, which was several times stronger than them. If they wanted to chase after him, wouldn’t that be easy?
He looked at Yang Lin, but did not find the slightest trace of fear on his face. Even the janissaries beside Yang Lin had become calm and collected. He could not help but nod his head as he said, “As you wish!” before turning his horse and running to the front.
“Brothers, follow me …” Taishi Ci bellowed, bringing his cavalry to rush towards Li Que’s Long Spear Array. As they charged forward and shot arrows at the same time, Arrows rained down on West Cold Cavalry’s head. A large portion of the Xiliang soldier in the first few rows were instantly shot down.
Just then, the Arrows s of the West Cold also began to display its might. Although their arrows were not as strong as the arrows of the cavalry of Youzhou, once they reached their range, their lethality was as astonishing as the others. In the charge, the cavalry of Youzhou still had people falling to the ground.
The cavalry of Youzhou continued to rush forward, and all of the Xiliang soldier s held their breaths, waiting for the instant cavalry of Youzhou made contact. Both of their hands were tightly holding onto the pike in their hands, and at the same time, most of them had their eyes closed. Although they had the courage to die, they truly didn’t have the courage to accept the tragic moment of collision between the two sides. At this time, closing your eyes was the best choice.
However, Taishi Ci disappointed them, the cavalry of Youzhou did not rush forward, but suddenly turned and turned, charging towards the east. cavalry of Youzhou on the horse turned her body, and at the same time, shot a ferocious Arrows towards Xiliang soldier’s Long Spear Array.
The cavalry of Youzhou turned east at high speed, but the dust they brought did not have time to turn, so they poured all of them in front of Xiliang soldier, covering the Xiliang soldier in dust. The dust and mist covered Xiliang soldier’s eyes. They were at a loss as to what to do, and stood there dumbly.
Li Que was still waiting for the moment cavalry of Youzhou crashed into him. He was even anxious to see the blood and flower dancing in the sky to console his injured spirit. Who would have thought that cavalry of Youzhou would turn around right before the battle and quickly leave the battlefield. He angrily shouted: “Chase after him! “Everyone, mount! Chase after them!”
Under Li Que’s urging, all of the cavalrymen under his command quickly gathered together and chased after Yang Lin. Although she said that the poor bandits were in a hurry to chase him, Li Que’s eyes revealed a sinister smile. This was because he knew that Guo Si’s cavalry was waiting in the northeast. This time, even if Yang Lin had wings, it would be difficult for him to escape their pincer attack.
did not expect that Yang Lin’s riders would actually not flee in panic, but would be running at a steady pace in front of them, as if teasing him. Li Que couldn’t help but sneer in her heart as she followed from a distance, waiting for the final blow.
However, not ten miles east, they came across a long and narrow valley. It was already the middle of the morning, so the fog had cleared. Li Que could clearly see that cavalry of Youzhou was right in front of him.
“Chase!” If it was in normal times, Li Que would very likely be worried about encountering an ambush. However, he had been closely following cavalry of Youzhou. Yang Lin simply did not have the time to ambush them, and the cavalry of Youzhou was right in front of them, so Li Que was not worried.
In fact, Yang Lin had already thought of this since a long time ago. Not only was he familiar with the terrain of this place, he did not need to make any preparations. He only left behind a large group of people to attract Li Que’s chase into the valley, and only brought his personal guards to run up the mountain.
In the deep autumn, the valley was barren and it was impossible to ambush soldiers. West Cold Cavalry followed closely behind Li Que and chased after him without hesitation. Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to cavalry of Youzhou, West Cold Cavalry’s eyes reddened. They swore to take revenge.
Yang Lin stood on top of the mountain peak and clearly saw Li Que’s flag. He even thought that if he were to eliminate Li Que here, it would change the course of history. If there was no Li Que, would Wang Yun succeed in controlling the Chang’an?
“Throw!” Yang Lin could not care so much now, if the heavens wanted Li Que to die here, he had no intention of going against the heaven’s will. He personally picked up a Thunderbolt Bomb and threw it down towards West Cold Cavalry. However, he still tried to throw it as far away from Li Que as possible.
The Thunderbolt Bomb rose up from the mountain peak one by one, forming a beautiful arc as they somersaulted in the air, bringing with them bursts of autumn winds as they flew past the hillside, landing in the valley, startling West Cold Cavalry who was running at full speed.
“What is this?” How is it so dark? ” Li Que also saw those black lumps that fell from the sky, and could not help but pull the horse reins tightly. When he saw those black lumps that had flames burning on their butts, she thought that Yang Lin was going to burn the valley down, and immediately shouted: “We’ve fallen into his trap, quickly retreat!”
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
What answered Li Que were earth-shattering sounds, and following that, the mountains on both sides began to shake. In a moment, a large amount of smoke completely enveloped the valley. The shockwave produced when the Thunderbolt Bomb exploded lifted Xiliang soldier up into the air.
On the mountain, the cavalry of Youzhou could only hear her screaming for help. When the Thunderbolt Bomb reached the top of the mountain, many of the cavalry of Youzhou could feel the wind blowing past their faces.
Standing on the mountain, even with her eyes closed, cavalry of Youzhou was able to accurately throw Thunderbolt Bomb s one after the other into the valley where West Cold Cavalry was concentrated. No matter how brave the West Cold Cavalry was, they were still flesh and blood. Amidst the exploding sound of the Thunderbolt Bomb, one after another, they fell to the ground while screaming miserably.
West Cold Cavalry had never come into contact with a Thunderbolt Bomb before, and they could not understand why they would be blasted into a bloody mess for no reason at all. Especially that heaven shaking sound, it caused their hearts to feel even more shock and fear than the explosion itself.
Although Li Que was not blown up, her war horse was still frightened, he immediately pulled the horse reins tightly, and looked around in shock. All she saw were balls of flames, loud sounds, and streams of black smoke, completely enveloping the entire valley. As for those West Cold Cavalry s, they were all tricked into falling off their horses.
Li Que was anxious and angry. He didn’t know what kind of magic West Cold Cavalry used, but the rows and rows of them fell, the whines of the war horses and the screams of the soldiers mixed together, forming the most terrifying sound in the world. In this chaotic environment, it was exceptionally dazzling and tragic.
Looking at the large amount of smoke, flickering flames, and astonishing explosions, Li Que was completely stunned. He had no idea what was going on and could only stare blankly at the scene before him. For a long time, his mind was blank.
As for those West Cold Cavalry s, they were even more unclear about what had happened. They helplessly looked at the plumes of black smoke as their ears rang. Their war horses were scared and scurrying all over the place, so their masters were unable to control them effectively. The entire West Cold Cavalry was in a mess and the fear was unavoidable.
“Let’s retreat!” Yang Lin could not bear to watch any longer, so he waved to janissaries, and signaled everyone to follow him. No matter what, this was the burly man’s own army. He didn’t want to kill them all. Moreover, he left some survivors so that they could spread the word of terror and make the armies of the world distance themselves from him.
“Lord General, what spell did you just cast?” After getting rid of Li Que’s chase, Taishi Ci ran over to Yang Lin’s side in a panic and asked. He was also quite frightened just now. Even though the one who was blown up was the West Cold Cavalry, facing this unknown world, he still felt a deep sense of fear.
“Hehe …” I don’t know any magic. This is our secret weapon, and also our most powerful weapon today. ” Yang Lin laughed and said proudly: “In front of our secret weapon, there is no fortress that we can’t break, and there is no enemy that we can’t defeat.”
