"General, how do you know those people are the army?" Village Chief Liu asked in surprise.
Li Yang smiled and said, "I was just guessing!"
"Since this cavalry is not simple, let's bypass them and return to camp as soon as possible!"
"Um!"
Everyone made up their mind and carefully returned along the mountain road.
Li Yang and Wang Dao, one on the left and one on the right, protected everyone as they walked towards the village.
The sky was gray, with large swathes of dark clouds covering the stars and the moon, and the whole world fell into boundless darkness.
At this time, five or six hours had passed since Li Yang and the others left, and they finally returned to the village.
After meeting up with the soldiers who came to pick him up, he asked Village Chief Liu and Chen Mo to take Wang Dao's wife and children back to the village first, while he and Wang Dao continued to stay here to monitor the surrounding situation.
After another half an hour, Li Yang suddenly raised his eyebrows and showed an expression that was exactly what I expected.
"Brother Wang, they are catching up again!"
Wang Dao immediately pulled out the steel knife he wore on his waist, with a look of caution on his face.
Li Yang shook his head sarcastically: "Don't be nervous, there are only eighty or ninety people on the other side, they are no match for us.
My concern is that these guys will take the opportunity to slip away. "
"You go down and rest first, Li Tao, come here!"
With a wave of his hand, a soldier in armor came over, clasped his fists respectfully and said, "General! Please give me your orders!"
"Immediately send someone back to the village to report to Deputy General Yang and ask him to bring out a thousand light cavalry and march 20 miles southeast to form a siege. I will close the door and beat the dogs!"
Li Yang's cold voice came out of his mouth.
"As you command!"
Wang Tao retreated in response, then called to other soldiers to drive the carriage to the village.
Li Yang and the remaining people continued to stay in the forest and wait and see what happened.
Not long after, the rapid sound of horse hooves came from far to near, and came to them in an instant. At this time, they also saw the true appearance of this cavalry team.
There are two hundred people in this cavalry team, all wearing silver-white armor, holding sharp long swords, and rushing toward them with a murderous aura.
Li Yang looked at the cavalry with caution, and visually judged that their combat effectiveness was very strong, at least much stronger than the stragglers they had encountered before.
"General, brothers are ready."
An adjutant beside him came over and reminded him softly.
"Okay, follow the plan."
Li Yang said lightly.
"Here!"
The adjutant responded, and then ordered the cavalry: "Form up!"
Two hundred cavalry quickly formed a battle formation, lined up in a defensive posture.
"Fire the arrow!"
"咻~咻~"
A dense sound of breaking through the air suddenly sounded.
"Puch..."
"ah....."
The screams and the sounds of sharp knives piercing flesh were mixed together, accompanied by the smell of blood.
After this wave of offensive, at least dozens of people were killed by the swords fired by the cavalry. The ground was dyed red with blood, and the strong smell of blood made the beasts roar and roar.
"charge!"
Li Yang shouted loudly, and the cavalry teams that had been ambushing all around began to charge forward again.
The two sides soon collided with each other, and the cavalry fought hard to prevent the enemy from approaching.
"boom!"
The cavalrymen raised their long swords and slashed at the enemy. The sparks and smoke exploded under the collision of swords and guns, blooming in the night, like gorgeous fireworks rising in the night.
"Ah...ah..."
When the cavalry fought with the cavalry, they were the ones who suffered the most. After all, Li Yang and the others ambush and took the lead.
"Brothers, surround me. Increase the troops from the northwest and surround me!"
Li Yang stood high up, and the early sun rose, shining light on his face, making him look handsome and manly.
After listening to Li Yang's order, Wang Dao and others immediately took action. They were divided into three groups, each guarding a position, forming a circle to surround the pursuers, and gradually narrowed the circle to trap them.
"kill!"
But there was still a cavalryman who rushed in front of Li Yang, raised the long sword in his hand and stabbed Li Yang hard in the chest.
Li Yang had quick eyes and quick hands. He held the steel knife in his hand to block the long sword, and with a pull, he grabbed the long sword, swept it with his backhand, and suddenly cut the cavalryman's neck.
"Bang!"
The long sword flew out of his hand, and the cavalryman lay on his back and struggled a few times before making any movement. However, his wide-open eyes still revealed deep fear, as if he could not figure out why he was being killed even before he died. So easy to kill.
"Young people like me also want to take my head?"
Li Yang sneered. If he had been hiding before, but now that he had returned to the base camp, there was nothing to fear.
"Brothers, come on little one!"
Li Yang shouted low, pulled out his long sword, and led the remaining seventy people to charge towards the cavalry in front.
The cavalry also came forward without showing any signs of weakness, and the two sides fought together.
Li Yang was now very powerful. He grabbed the enemy's collar, dragged him to the ground, stepped on his chest, pushed him to the ground, and picked up the steel knife to chop him down hard.
"clang!"
The sound of gold and iron clashing came, and the cavalryman used his shield to resist the steel sword.
"snort!"
Li Yang groaned, his wrist shook, and huge power poured into the opponent's body through the steel knife.
There was only a crisp sound of 'click', and the opponent's arm was broken off.
"Ouch...!"
The other party let out a shrill howl, and the pain made him completely crazy. He pushed with all his strength with both arms, trying to break free from Li Yang's control.
It's a pity that Li Yang didn't move at all. He relied on the power of the war horse under his crotch to suppress the opponent.
"Pfft!"
The steel knife in Li Yang's hand stabbed the opponent's stomach fiercely, smashing his intestines, and then pulled out the long knife.
"Plop!"
The wounded cavalryman fell straight to the ground.
But he found that things were not as one-sided as he imagined. The cavalry surrounded by them were still resisting, and a gap was almost made due to the west.
"It seems that the opponent's general's command is pretty good!"
Li Yang narrowed his eyes slightly and looked to the west.
"We can't delay it any longer, we must fight it quickly."
Thinking of this, Li Yang put away his steel sword, drew out his sword, and shouted to the cavalry beside him: "Follow me!"
Upon hearing this, the cavalrymen followed Li Yang and ran to the west. They quickly crossed the river, went around to the other side, and then suddenly appeared behind the cavalry group in the west and attacked from behind.
"Ah~!"
Screams and curses rang out continuously. The cavalry were caught off guard by the cavalry led by Li Yang and suffered heavy losses.
When Li Yang was in the mood to kill, he suddenly felt something strange around him. He turned around and saw a bloody general looking at him coldly.
A whole circle of corpses of horses and soldiers lay beside him, with blood flowing like a river.
