As Li Yang retreated, the cavalrymen who had been waiting for a long time immediately seized the opportunity and charged forward!
"The general has left, brothers charge!"
The surrounding heavy cavalry had been waiting for a long time. After finally seeing that Li Yang retreated without worrying about accidental injury, these heavy cavalry turned their horses and rushed towards Wang Bai.
Da da da!
Iron hoofs roared, and the atmosphere on the battlefield instantly boiled.
Wang Bai's face was calm. He glanced at the cavalry rushing toward him, and his expression sank slightly.
He is not afraid of this rabble, but if he is delayed for a long time, there is no guarantee that Li Yang will come back.
Uh-huh!
Wang Bai's figure was like lightning, and he instantly flew to where Li Yang disappeared. Then he kicked off his feet and shot out like a cannonball.
boom!
He danced his arms, each blow was powerful and heavy, and he could barely dodge the charge of the cavalry.
Wang Bai's movement was erratic, and he shuttled among the heavy cavalry like a swimming fish.
But even though he was a bone-forging warrior, he couldn't bear the battle between the iron rider and the iron rider. Gradually, he began to lose his strength and was stabbed through the abdomen by an iron rider.
puff!
A blood arrow spurted out from Wang Bai's mouth. He staggered back a few steps, his vision went black, and he almost fell to the ground.
His face was pale, and he glanced at the soldiers behind him from the corner of his eye. A bitterness appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he slowly closed his eyes.
He lost this battle.
"brush!"
The long sword passed by, the big head flew up, blood sprayed, and a corpse fell limply to the ground.
"This battle is won!"
A flick of the blood on the sword revealed a smile on Li Yang's somewhat pale face. He waved his hand to signal the soldiers to clean up the mess.
He turned around and walked behind him. When he saw the soldiers lying on the ground covered in blood, he frowned.
"General, we have suffered heavy losses and numerous casualties. Please punish us, General!"
Next to Li Yang, an adjutant was kneeling on the ground. His eyes were scarlet and he looked extremely sad and angry.
This battle was too frustrating. Even though they had the numerical advantage, the enemy still allowed one person to massacre dozens of cavalry and fine horses.
If Li Yang hadn't taken the risk in the end and forced the other party to find a flaw, the losses might have gone up.
He really couldn't accept such a failure.
"No wonder you!"
Li Yang shook his head: "That guy's strength increased dramatically after taking the elixir. Even ordinary bone-forging experts are no match for him, let alone ordinary cavalry like you."
Although he felt a little regretful, he did not criticize him harshly, because when things got to this point, blaming had no effect.
As long as he wins, he can take these people back to the capital.
Although he doesn't know how much he can bring back, he will do his best.
"Pass this general's order, compile the list of soldiers who died in battle, and report them all to the court. I will replenish five taels at home. If it is not enough, it will be deducted from my monthly gift."
Li Yang spoke coldly, with a trace of unbearable expression in his eyes.
"yes."
Several adjutants were stunned. The next moment, the man who had never cried out in pain when he was stabbed on the battlefield actually had tears in his eyes.
Five taels of pension for those killed on the battlefield? !
This is an astronomical figure. In the past, only captains would have been treated like this.
But now, it falls on this group of soldiers who can be called cannon fodder.
"General..."
Several adjutants choked with sobs, and some even burst into tears.
Li Yang waved his hand. He ignored these and looked towards the horizon, where the setting sun was like blood.
"I don't dare to say anything else, but I, Li Yang, will do my best to take you all home."
After saying these words, Li Yang got on the horse, clamped the horse's belly, and dragged his tired body towards Li Village.
This battle not only cost hundreds of cavalrymen, but also seriously injured Li Yang. He must recuperate these days. It will be difficult for him to attack Qingshi City in the short term.
But this time, no matter what, it was a blessing to be able to kill one of the Bone Forging Generals from Bluestone City.
"The general is back, please come and greet him!"
Just as Li Yang's figure disappeared from sight, a cheer suddenly came from the distance.
Immediately afterwards, the villagers near Li Village gathered, and everyone's eyes were focused on Li Yang.
In this battle, Li Yang took the lead and was extremely brave. No matter who he was, anyone who had the guts wanted to fight alongside him.
Li Yang raised his hand slightly, and everyone was quiet. He looked at the villagers on the left and right, felt slightly moved in his heart, and said:
"Fellow folks, we have indeed won, but don't be too happy. Although we won this time, we also suffered a lot of losses and many wounded."
After hearing Li Yang's words, everyone's expressions changed. Although civilians like them had never seen a real battle, such a brutal fighting also frightened them.
"General Li, do you have any orders? You saved our village. As long as we can help you, we are duty-bound!"
At this time, a strong man stood up and spoke.
"Yes, General Li, if you have any needs, just tell us. As long as we can help you, we will do whatever it takes to help you!"
"General Li, we support you!"
For a time, everyone in the village was talking about it, and every face was full of determination, as if they had made some determination.
Hearing everyone's words, Li Yang's eyes were complicated. He did not reject everyone's enthusiasm, but slowly said:
"Then I'd like to thank you all, folks."
"Now there are many wounded soldiers in the army, and the tents we have set up are not enough. We hope that the villagers can free up some houses for everyone to live in."
"no problem."
As soon as Li Yang finished speaking, some villagers immediately agreed.
For ordinary people, where to live is not to sleep?
What's more, Li Yang and others are the army protecting their lives, so they are naturally willing.
"In addition, we have a lot of food in the camp. Now that we have run out of food, I hope that fellow villagers can send some. After all, we are still short of food."
Li Yang continued.
"no problem!"
"I still have some bacon and stuff at home, don't worry, General."
Li Yang's words immediately attracted responses from many villagers.
Although food is relatively scarce for them now, Li Yang and others are kind to them, so they are naturally willing to help.
"Thank you very much."
Seeing these villagers, Li Yang took a deep breath and said seriously: "I will never thank you for your kindness. If there is an opportunity in the future, Li Yang will definitely repay the favor!"
His words stunned everyone, and then they all hurriedly said: "General Li, you're welcome!"
"By the way, General, what about the people in Bluestone City? Should we go after them?"
One of the soldiers asked.
"No need, the guards in Bluestone City should be very strict now. We were able to win this time only because of luck."
