Luoyang Pass.
Wu Chao approached the tower closest to Li Chao. At this moment, a group of generals were looking in the direction of Li Chao.
At this time, a soldier came quickly and said, "General, there are prairie cavalry ahead, attacking the Wu Dynasty mission."
The leading general was named Li Kaiyuan. His expression was calm, as if he had not heard anything.
A follower beside him said: "General, do we want to rescue?"
Since it was a mission, and the location of the attack was already in the territory of the Wu Dynasty, it stands to reason that they had to be rescued. No matter what the reason, others were not allowed to show off their power in their own territory.
"Hmph! Li Chao is just a bunch of soft-footed shrimps. What qualifications do they have to form an alliance with Wu Chao?"
"That's right! If you can't even get here, then why not get back as soon as possible."
"But this is the arrangement from above after all..."
"..."
Several followers were talking about it.
Li Kaiyuan said casually: "The prairie cavalry suddenly appeared to prevent a large-scale invasion. We cannot take it lightly. Let's go and find out the situation first."
This is obviously delaying.
The mission was attacked, and by the time the situation was discovered, it was unclear what was going on.
Of course, this has nothing to do with them. They only need to go out and clean up the mess at the appropriate time. The failure of the mission to withstand the attack is their own fault.
Haloxylon ammodendron! !
At this time, arrows were raining down on the battlefield. The prairie cavalry suddenly appeared, and many people were hit by arrows on the spot.
Zhao Qianjun's expression changed greatly, "Protect His Highness."
Lin Bai's little heart was also pounding, and several arrows were inserted into the carriage, only a few feet away from the window.
These dregs of the grasslands are indeed here.
"Uncle, get off the carriage."
The carriage had the biggest target. Zhuiyue quickly got out of the carriage to clear the way for his uncle. At this time, the prairie cavalry had also arrived. Although there were only three hundred horsemen, their impact was extremely shocking.
Like a tornado, sweeping across.
Although Li Chao's soldiers were not bad, one rushed on horseback, while the other waited in place, and had to take into account the safety of all the officials. It can be imagined that the mentality and state of the two were completely different.
In just one charge, more than a dozen soldiers were killed and even more were injured.
"Hahaha!! You weaklings from Li Chao, you will definitely die today, kill them all."
All kinds of strange screams echoed, and the prairie cavalry all looked extremely excited. They killed wantonly with butcher knives in their hands, attacking the convoy back and forth.
It must be said that these prairie cavalry are extremely brave.
The expressions of all the soldiers changed greatly, and Zhao Qianjun's face was also ashen. He organized the soldiers to resist, but the impact of the cavalry was shocking, and they had to take care of the safety of Zhu Liang and other officials, so they were extremely passive.
At this time, Zhu Liang's face was as white as paper. As a prince, he had never experienced such a scene.
In fact, Lin Dacaizi is not much better.
I've only seen scenes like this on TV, okay?
So scary!
But it's scary to be scary. You can't give in at this time. If you give in, it will really be over. With Zhuiyue, Ganfanwang and a group of personal guards by his side, he is still safe for the time being.
However, being hit like this is obviously not the answer.
Once there are too many casualties among the soldiers, no matter how powerful Zhuiyue and Ganfanwang are, it will be of no avail.
"He is that bitch of the female devil, take him down."
At this time, a loud shout rang out, and many prairie cavalry looked over with murderous intent.
grass! It turns out that he can't beat his fourth son, so he's here to bully his brother?
Talented Lin was unhappy.
Xu Da was also angry. This guy was like a wild bull in a fighting state, "Come here if you are not afraid of death. I will chop you up today."
boom!
He said as he prepared to rush forward.
But Lin Bai held down his shoulders, "I want to die! Contract first!"
Facing the onslaught of cavalry, rushing forward will definitely lead to death. Although King Ganfan is very strong and has natural powers, one person's strength is limited after all.
Even if he could kill a few cavalry, other cavalry would be enough to kill him.
If he is like this, let alone others.
The scene was chaotic.
The soldiers of Li Dynasty were beaten to pieces and could not organize effective resistance at all. Zhao Qianjun's face was extremely ugly, and Zhu Liang's face was even more ashen.
"Protect His Highness and Lord Lin, retreat!"
At this time, Zhao Qianjin had no choice.
While there is still some fighting strength, the escorting His Highness and others still have a chance to escape, otherwise the whole army will be annihilated.
"Hahaha!! Want to escape, wishful thinking, kill all the trash from Li Chao."
"kill!"
All kinds of noisy sounds.
Seeing Zhao Qian's army ordered to retreat, the prairie cavalry became more aggressive and charged indiscriminately.
Li Chao's soldiers were fine, but many of the accompanying civil servants and the children of scholars were frightened to death, their legs and feet were weak, and they could not escape.
And you can't escape. Once you escape, it will only be more tragic.
The most important thing is that facing the cavalry, the possibility of successfully escaping is very slim. Rather than this, it is better to...
"Can't withdraw!"
Lin Bai said immediately.
Zhao Qianjun looked at him with confusion in his eyes, and Lin Bai continued: "Everyone come closer to me."
Zhu Liang was obviously panicked and looked at Zhao Qianjun, "Master Zhao?"
Zhao Qianjun was also a little confused at this time. Under such circumstances, his rationality told him that escaping was the best way to deal with it. In normal times, he could fight, but with the fifth prince around, he must ensure safety.
But, can we really escape? He wasn't sure either.
"Still dawdling, hurry up!"
Lin Bai shouted.
Zhao Qianjun did not dare to neglect, and he had to make a decision as soon as possible no matter what. Although he was responsible for the safety of the mission during this trip, Lin Bai was the deputy envoy, and if there was no better way, he could only follow orders.
"Get closer to Mr. Lin immediately."
With a command, everyone retreated towards Lin Bai.
"Hahaha! You idiot, you will die faster if you shrink into a ball."
The prairie cavalry laughed loudly. The impact of the cavalry was astonishing. If they scattered and fled, they might still have a chance. At least they wouldn't be able to catch them all in one fell swoop. But gathering together in a group was just a food delivery in their opinion.
After several rounds of attacks, the army will inevitably be defeated.
This was what Zhao Qianjun was worried about, but Lin Bai obviously didn't think so.
Retreating would mean admitting defeat. Regardless of whether they could escape, this mission was considered a complete failure. Once the alliance fell through, the construction of Changjin County would probably stop.
He cannot allow this.
We have prepared to build Changjin County into an impregnable city so that we can have a soft job in the future. How can we bear this, which is really destroying our own soft job.
As for these prairie cavalry.
Although there has been no good way to deal with cavalry since ancient times, there are still some defensive methods. Knowing that this line of business may be targeted by the grassland, how could Lin Bai not be prepared at all.
In fact, when he was in Changjin County, he had already tried it with King Gan Fan and the personal guards from the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the results were pretty good. As for the real results, that depends on now.
Lin Bai immediately shouted: "Put up a phalanx of spears."
Upon receiving the order, the personal guards around him immediately dispersed among the soldiers to explain and demonstrate. Soon, a simple, even somewhat comical spear phalanx was formed.
…
Some people died, but not completely...
