The elite attacking team numbered two hundred, all composed of soldiers from the Xiaocheng realm. They wore fingernails, the lightest but most defensive armor.
The same fingernails were on their mounts, and their bodies were tied to the horses' backs, and they either lived with the horses or died with them.
This fully represents their will to fight, and at the same time, they have quivers on their backs. There is a strong bow on one side of the horse's back, and a gun bag with several spears in it on the other side.
As the order came out, waves of horse whistles were passed forward, and the team in front gradually separated to both sides, leaving a gap in the middle.
Cheng Jiu, one of the commanders of this elite cavalry team, after receiving the order, he did not hesitate to take the lead in urging his subordinates to rush forward.
A hundred cavalry followed him closely, and their speed was much faster than the cavalry next to them.
In the cavalry team, the cavalry in the front generally plays the role of breaking the wind and taking the lead. Breaking the wind can help the cavalry behind reduce physical consumption.
When attacking the enemy formation at a critical moment, the troops in the front who broke the wind would retreat to the rear, allowing the cavalry in the middle to preserve their physical strength to charge with all their strength.
This is the standard for cavalry charge battles, but the top commander of this 5,000-man cavalry team did not act according to this rule.
According to his opinion, there should be no senior generals in this military camp. The cavalry is the elite of an army and cannot be controlled by ordinary people, so he first showed the enemy's weakness and charged with the cavalry in front that had consumed most of their energy.
Once the opponent thinks that this is the impact of the cavalry, then he can take it by surprise and let the cavalry behind who have conserved their physical strength to charge with all their strength.
Now that the charge and attack steps have come to this step, the attack team must first break through the defense.
Once the defense is successfully broken and an opening is opened, the cavalry team behind will follow this opening to continuously expand the results.
Under the leadership of Cheng Jiu, the attack team moved faster and faster, and soon reached the top, and the forward cavalry team had completely separated, revealing the scene in front.
Unlike Cheng Jiu's impression of facing sharp spears and solid shields every time he arrived at this moment, this time he saw only a few hundred people scattered in front trying to stop them.
Cheng Jiu couldn't help but feel ecstatic. He didn't expect that the enemy would use such a formation to stop them.
If they were facing a shield formation or a spear formation, then his attacking team would inevitably suffer heavy losses, and even he himself would have a high probability of being killed on the battlefield.
But if it were the situation at hand, he could say without hesitation that the 100 people in their team would have a probability of survival of more than 80%.
Once this attack is completed, everyone in their team will be promoted to one level and will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver. This is the fundamental source of the attack team's combat power!
If you fight once, if you win, you will reach the pinnacle of life. If you lose, you will probably die.
The appearance of the attack team actually attracted all the contestants who participated in the battle. Most of them were masters of the Dacheng Realm. With their sharp ears and eyes, they could naturally hear the distinctive sound of the hoofbeats of this group of cavalry.
It can only be described in two words, that is:
tidy!
It was so neat that one could barely hear the difference in the chaotic sound of horse hooves.
Many competitors who were rushing ahead were ready to retreat to see the situation.
However, the speed of the attacking team has been increased to the limit, much faster than other cavalry, and the previous contestants cannot retreat if they want to. Faced with the attack and pursuit of the cavalry, they can only retreat while fighting.
So the attacking team rushed out, and immediately two Dacheng realm warriors were shot through by a knight at the front of the attacking team.
This time it was the contestants' turn to be shot twice.
The other contestants had shocked looks on their faces.
Those were two Dacheng realm warriors, and they were killed so easily.
Moreover, the opponent was instantly killed at the same time with just one shot.
Liu Xin's pupils condensed, and his body was like a paper kite, rising directly into the sky and falling dozens of meters behind him.
The two spears that were originally attacking him were suddenly hit empty, and the eyes of the two knights were full of hatred.
This young man had killed no fewer than ten of them.
But they did not hesitate and followed the cavalry charge forward.
Liu Xin watched as the attacking team kept sprinting forward, and the knight at the head shot through another Dacheng realm warrior.
This person is in the Dacheng realm!
Liu Xin made this judgment immediately, and he immediately ran behind him. He knew very well what such a team meant.
If they can't stop it, the cavalry behind them will follow this team and drive straight in. The opponent is like the blade of a knife, cutting through the opponent's defense.
At the same time, Huangfu Rongjiang also ran back crazily. He and Liu Xin had the same purpose and had to stop this team.
Only by stopping or hindering the speed of this attacking team can they avoid greater casualties in the future.
Once the defense of the military camp was breached, their number of less than 2,000 men alone would not be able to stop the 5,000-man cavalry.
And some of them, the Dacheng realm warriors among the contestants, might be able to escape.
But if they really lose today's game, let alone whether the third round of the Zhengyang Wuju Competition will continue to be held, the shame of today's defeat can completely ruin their future.
This feeling is incomprehensible to ordinary warriors with no background.
They are considered by most people to be rich and noble people who were born with golden keys in their mouths. In fact, they have to bear much more pressure than ordinary people.
Unless you are completely screwed up and willing to be a playboy.
Anyone who pursues something must work several times harder than ordinary people.
Huangfu Rongjiang is such a person. He is very proud because his talent is outstanding.
But equally, even someone as talented as him is still under a lot of pressure.
The elders in the family have high hopes for him, hoping that he can become the same person as their ancestors. Only then can he be considered a qualified heir.
And the highest expectation is that he can even surpass his ancestors.
But the ancestor was such a person. Huangfu Rongjiang never thought that he could compare with the ancestor.
But that was the expectation of his elders, so he could only press forward.
As he knew very well at this moment, he alone could not stop this team, but he had to do it.
Fortunately, the next moment Huangfu Rongjiang saw Liu Xin, Dan Si, Zheng Xiao, and a dozen people who had made the same choice as him.
Cheng Jiu held the spear in his hand with a strong fighting spirit in his heart.
He defeated three Dacheng realm warriors in one move, which made him feel a surging fighting spirit that he had never felt in his life.
He now even feels like he can challenge the Grandmaster.
But soon, his qualities as a soldier overcame his delusions.
He knew exactly what he had to do now. All he had to do was to penetrate the opponent's defensive circle and open an opening for the large group of people behind him.
However, just as he rushed through the horse-rejecting formation and came to the obviously treated subsidence, he did not choose to slow down, but stood directly on the horse. Once his horse fell into the trap, he could jump off the horse. , to rescue his horse from the trap.
This is his exclusive ability as a Dacheng realm warrior, and no one else can do it.
As long as he is at the front of the team, their attacking team will have the strongest penetration.
Liu Xin looked at the knight standing tall on the horse and knew that he was the leader of the cavalry.
He must be defeated first before this cavalry team will be affected.
Taking two steps in depth, Liu Xin threw hard and shot out the last spear in his hand.
Cheng Jiu noticed something and turned his head to look behind him. A knight beside him immediately understood and turned his horse's head to block Cheng Jiu's side. The next moment, a spear pierced his back and struck him. His chest was pierced, and he was about to fall off the horse.
But because his body was tied to the horse, he just hung there diagonally, while the horse was still running forward.
Liu Xin didn't expect that the opponent's knight could actually do this, so he used all his strength to move faster than the horse that galloped to the extreme.
When Cheng Jiu saw the people approaching quickly from both sides, he snorted and the horse whistle sounded a syllable in his mouth.
Five fast horses were separated from his side. The knights on the horses roared crazily and charged towards both sides.
Huangfu Rongjiang also learned top-notch body skills. His body trembled on the spot, as if he had split into several clones.
The knight who came to stop him couldn't tell what to do and hesitated for a moment. The next moment, Huangfu Rongjiang's red cloak covered the person's head.
The knight's reaction was not slow, and he stabbed out with the spear in his hand.
But Huangfu Rongjiang's body was sliding in the air, and the spear stabbed him in the chest, while he himself turned sideways. The spear in his hand swept directly and hit the knight's head.
The knight hit the horse's back directly, and the huge force caused the charging horse to stagger and fall to the ground.
After the war horse fell to the ground, it rolled several times on the ground, and several war horses next to him jumped over it with great agility.
Although Huangfu Rongjiang successfully broke through, there were Zheng Xiao and others behind him.
However, facing the four charging horses, the Dacheng realm warriors behind them were obviously not so fearful.
Zheng Xiao drew out his sword, slashed in the air, and cut off the horse's head. However, he himself was almost stabbed in the chest by the spear of the knight who jumped down.
But the knight only had time to stab him, because when the horse he sat on fell to the ground, he fell to the ground with him.
The knight was directly pressed under the horse's body. The huge weight of the war horse directly crushed him into a pile of soft flesh, and all the bones in his body were instantly broken.
Zheng Xiao failed to kill one knight, but the other Dacheng realm warriors were not so lucky.
Although the remaining three knights eventually died on the battlefield, one of the contestants died, one was seriously injured, and several others were slightly injured.
Zheng Xiao's heart twitched violently. Is this a battlefield?
Even Dacheng realm warriors may encounter the danger of death anytime and anywhere in this environment.
If he had just moved a little slower, he might have been stabbed, or at least he would have been seriously injured.
He looked at the cavalry team in front of him who was sprinting forward quickly, and he felt a sense of cowardice and retreat in his heart.
But he gritted his teeth and persevered. He was a noble man and his father had fought on such a battlefield countless times.
This was the first time he understood his father who had been away from each other since childhood.
And Liu Xin, who saw all this from the corner of his eye, also ushered in his opponent.
Two fast horses charged towards him carrying the knights on them.
Liu Xin's movement was extremely fast. The moment he stood up, he dodged a gun and grabbed it with one hand. Taking advantage of the momentum of the spear and using the light Hongyan movement at the same time, his body suddenly stopped in the air, causing another knight to Every shot missed.
At the same time, Liu Xin actually retreated with the two knights. The two knights did not expect this. Before they had time to react, a bright sword light appeared in their eyes.
Liu Xin's Dao-Breaking Sword easily cut through the armor of the two knights. Liu Xin stood a little on the horse and continued to rush forward.
The two knights fell down crookedly. Because they were tied to their mounts, their bodies were carried away.
Without the control of its owner, the war horse will only run forward.
After Liu Xin landed, he still rushed forward.
At this time, Cheng Jiu had already arrived at the sinking area. With the keen senses and intuition of a Dacheng-level warrior, he bypassed two traps in succession, but it was also inevitable that his speed dropped a bit.
At this time, Huangfu Rongjiang had already caught up.
The red cloak shrouded him forward, and a cold light was hidden behind the red cloak.
Cheng Jiu, who was experienced in fighting, directly ordered the seated war horse to charge hard in the direction of Huangfu Rongjiang.
The red cloak therefore covered the horse's head directly.
But the direction of the war horse is not controlled by itself, but by its owner, so it is not affected at all.
The attack that Huangfu Rongjiang was about to launch was interrupted when he was hit hard by the war horse that continued to sprint forward.
But Cheng Jiu had already thrust the spear in his hand forward.
With the help of the impact of the war horse, his spear already has the combat power of the mid-level Dacheng realm.
At the critical moment, Huangfu Rongjiang used his inner strength to dodge to the right and narrowly avoided the shot.
Cheng Jiu didn't expect that the opponent could dodge at the speed of this shot, but he, who was extremely experienced, turned his wrist and swept his spear towards Huangfu Rongjiang.
Huangfu Rongjiang was unable to dodge twice and was directly hit by this shot. Fortunately, he had deep internal strength. He took the blow forcefully.
Huangfu Rongjiang took a few steps back. The place where he was struck by the spear was burning. A burst of blood surged up, and there was blood spilling from his mouth.
He never imagined that one day he would be easily repelled by a low-grade Dacheng realm warrior.
Before he was promoted to a Dacheng Realm warrior, he was already able to fight with low-grade Dacheng Realm warriors.
After being promoted to the lower level Dacheng Realm, he has never suffered a loss at the hands of a warrior of the same level.
And now he is already at the middle level of Dacheng Realm!
This made him unbearable for a moment, but the cavalry following him continued to attack him. He had no time to think and could only counterattack subconsciously.
But at this time his state of mind had been destroyed. The attack was so hasty that he was unable to kill another knight.
The way he stands now is completely different from the way he stood before.
Although the attack team is extremely elite, except for the leader Cheng Jiu, who is at the Dacheng realm, the rest are actually only at the Xiaocheng realm.
Even with the full blessing of war horses, Huangfu Rongjiang should be no match for him.
Huangfu Rongjiang could only retreat first, but when he retreated, his vigilance as a warrior made him turn over and dodge.
However, he saw a pair of black hands reaching out from nowhere and slapping him directly towards his original location.
Huangfu Rongjiang turned around, wanting to see who it was, but he only saw a shadow flashing past his eyes.
However, at this moment, the cavalry caught up again, and Huangfu Rongjiang could only retreat again. However, in the process, he searched back and forth with his eyes, but he did not see anyone.
But he was indeed attacked just now.
And the person who attacked him should also be a contestant.
When did it happen that we were still fighting among ourselves!
Huangfu Rongjiang was furious in his heart. The angrier he became, the more chaotic his moves became. He could only keep retreating, and even Zheng Xiao and others were chasing after him at this time.
More than half of this attacking team has passed through the trap area, and further ahead is the shield formation composed of ordinary soldiers led by Weng Bingliang.
Once the opponent breaks through the shield formation, the large group of cavalry behind them will definitely follow their footsteps, trying to completely penetrate the entire camp.
Huangfu Rongjiang finally calmed down a little at this time. He turned his head and looked at Cheng Jiu, who was already a hundred meters away. They couldn't stop him, or even slow him down. This was undoubtedly a reflection on his status. A great shame.
If you are lucky enough to go back alive today, you will definitely be scolded by the family elders.
It simply disgraced the entire Huangfu Rongjiang family.
But the next moment he saw a figure appearing in front of Cheng Jiu.
Taking a closer look, that's Liu Xin, the Jin Yiwei who has a good relationship with Shan Si!
Although his strength is not bad, there is a big gap between the low-grade Dacheng realm's cultivation and the cavalry of the same level.
Even if he is a genius and can fight across levels, he can at most be on a par with his opponent.
As for the leader of the cavalry team, his purpose was to sprint forward at one go and break through the shield formation.
I will never get involved with Liu Xin.
If you can't stop him, it's useless.
This is a battlefield, not a competition ground.
It doesn't have to be a fight to the death. The commander only needs to complete his mission and penetrate the shield formation. He is equivalent to already winning.
Therefore, Huangfu Rongjiang felt desperate at this moment.
But the next moment there was a look of shock in his eyes.
Where he could see, the commander was kicked off his horse by Liu Xin.
