South from the county seat.
Quietly.
Suddenly, black figures appeared from the top of the city. They were the group of people dressed as savages.
This group of people quickly jumped over the wall and landed on the ground. Several people jumped out and ran to the city gate to open it.
The next moment, a large number of cavalry, also dressed like savages, entered the city from the city gate.
As soon as these cavalry entered the city, they immediately fired "rockets" at the houses on both sides of the street.
However, these cavalrymen stopped after running a hundred steps.
Suddenly, rows of soldiers appeared in front of them, all wearing red armor.
The first few rows held heavy shields, and a group of soldiers at the back held iron-armed copper crossbows.
At the same time, dense crowds of figures suddenly appeared on the rooftops on both sides of the street, each holding a torch.
The fire was shining brightly, clearly illuminating everything within a hundred meters of the city gate.
The "savages" who had entered the city all looked panicked under the firelight.
"Hmph! A group of uncivilized savages actually dare to imitate others and sneak attack on my city of Great Zhou. Who gave you the courage?"
I saw Captain Chengyi, wearing fish scale composite armor, standing among the heavily armored soldiers.
With a serious look on his face, he waved his hand and said: "Kill them! Leave no one behind!"
As soon as the words fell, everyone, whether they were standing on the roof or the soldiers in the streets, released their crossbows.
"Boohoo!"
A large swath of crossbow arrows pierced the night sky, and a group of "savages" near the city gate were killed on the spot.
"Kote (kill)!"
With just one order, the "savage" cavalry who rushed into the streets launched an attack.
Chengyi sneered: "Looking for death!"
Then he ordered everyone to shoot arrows again, and "swish, swish, swish", the arrows pierced the night sky.
Even at a distance of tens of meters, the iron-armed copper crossbow still has powerful lethality and can penetrate armor from a hundred steps away. What's more, these "savages" have no armor at all.
Many "savages" cavalry were shot off their horses. Those "savages" without mounts were even worse. They had nowhere to hide and fell down like weeds.
At this moment, the power of the iron-armed copper crossbow was undoubtedly revealed!
However, some "savage" cavalry still rushed towards Chengyi and others.
Cheng Yi stayed in the formation, motionless as a mountain, and just made a chopping motion towards the "savage" cavalry that came to kill them.
"brush!"
A row of spears was thrust out from behind the heavy shield, and the "savage" cavalry who came over were stabbed to the ground, including both men and horses.
However, there were still several "savage" cavalry who fought out from the hail of arrows.
The speed of the cavalry is too fast. Even in the hail of bullets, there will still be "fish that slip through the net".
"kill!"
Cheng Yi shouted loudly, holding a Yanyue knife and sweeping towards several cavalrymen who were rushing over.
"boom!!"
A cold light flashed, and the Yanyue Sword hit several horses, and the horses suddenly stopped in mid-air.
Under the strong inertia, several "savages" flew out from the horseback.
The spearman behind had quick eyes and quick hands. He thrust his spear upward and several "savages" were stabbed to death.
"boom!!"
Several horses were slashed and sent flying, and blood spurted out from the wounds.
Chengyi was sprayed all over, his face and clothes were all red, like Shura coming out of hell.
He stuck out his tongue and licked the blood at the corner of his mouth, then spat it out again with a look of madness on his face, shouting at the cavalry on the opposite side: "Come on, you bitch! Come here, grandpa, you are not afraid of death." !”
The ringing sound was like a loud bell, and the "savage" cavalry on the opposite side was stunned and did not immediately attack again.
Upon seeing this, Cheng Yi immediately ordered: "Set arrows! Shoot the damn arrows for me and shoot these sons of bitches to death!"
"Boohoo!"
Another wave of crossbow arrows was fired from both sides of the street and opposite the group of "savages".
Except behind them, the east, south, and north directions were all covered by crossbow arrows.
This group of "savages" tried to resist, but most of the weapons in their hands were agricultural tools such as sickles and steel forks, and some even used stone tools. How could they block the iron-armed copper crossbow?
As a result, another group of people died on the spot.
In just a few moments, hundreds of "savages" had completely left their lives here.
They finally realized that they were afraid, and screamed in panic, "Cha Cong (escape)! Cha Cong (escape)!" and then ran frantically outside the city.
However, the city gates were blocked by the "savage" cavalry who squeezed in. For a while, they could not escape at all, but instead caused a stampede.
Chengyi was worthy of being a veteran who fought hard on the battlefield. Seeing this scene, he immediately ordered everyone to attack.
A bigger wave of arrows fell, and the lives of some of the "savages" who managed to survive were ruthlessly harvested.
Unable to get out of the city gate, these "savages" had no choice but to go elsewhere.
Then, everyone saw the most unforgettable scene in their lives.
The ten-meter-high city wall was slippery and steep, but these "savages" climbed up to the top of the city in twos and twos as if they were walking on flat ground.
Everyone was secretly shocked. If a martial artist with true energy born in their body could do this, they would still understand, but these people clearly did not have any true energy fluctuations.
Is this fucking human?
"What the hell are you doing here? Shoot them! Shoot them to death!"
Cheng Yi cursed loudly, grabbed the spear from a soldier's hand, and flicked it away.
"Whoosh!"
The next moment, a spear shot a man in the back of the heart and nailed him to the city wall with one shot.
Others immediately followed suit and fired, and some of the "savages" who escaped slowly were shot on the city wall.
Several of them had already climbed to the top of the city but could not escape. They were hit by arrows and fell from the city.
However, some "savages" still managed to escape outside the city.
The soldiers in the street quickly chased after him, but were stopped by Chengyi.
"Sir, why don't you pursue me?" the soldier asked.
Chengyi did not answer, but walked to a "savage" lying on the ground.
He leaned down and checked it carefully. After a moment, he clapped his hands and stood up, saying to himself: "You are really from Gaoshan Country. Damn it, how did these savages get here?"
There is obviously a mountain range in the south, and there is no passage. People from Gaoshan Country should not appear here.
"Is it true that as adults think, there is a secret passage south of the mountains?" Cheng Yi thought thoughtfully.
"Sir, those savages have escaped. If we don't chase them, we won't be able to catch them!" the soldier reminded them again.
"run?"
Chengyi looked back at him and then sneered: "Did you run away?"
outside the city.
A large number of "savages" were fleeing, and it was so dark that there were thousands of them at least.
However, they stopped after running a few hundred meters.
I saw a large number of cavalry appearing in front of them, all wearing red armor and holding long spears and sharp blades.
The leader was twenty-three or four years old, with a face like a crown of jade, eyes like lightning, holding a tiger-headed golden spear, and a tall green horse at his hip.
Who else could it be besides Wang Cheng?
Cavalry Colonel Zhang Han was on his side, looking at the group of people opposite and sneering: "Are these savages from Gaoshan Country fooled by the wind? Such a small number of people dare to sneak attack on me, Nanli, what do you think of us?"
Wang Cheng said: "They just don't have any brains."
Zhang Han thought Wang Cheng was joking at first, but soon realized that Wang Cheng's words had profound meaning, so he asked: "Why did the general say that?"
"To say that a group of soldiers dared to sneak attack Nanli without any decent weapons is either really stupid or there is another reason." Wang Cheng said expressionlessly.
"Is there another reason?" Zhang Han was startled.
Wang Cheng didn't explain anything. He pointed the tiger-headed golden gun to the opposite side and said: "Stop them, don't let any of them get away!"
"yes!"
Zhang Han responded, and then shouted: "Brothers, the general has an order, don't let anyone get away!"
"kill!!"
Following this order, a group of cavalry behind them launched an attack on the group of "savages".
"Boohoo!"
The horse archer was the first to engage with the opponent, pulling the trigger of the iron-armed copper crossbow from dozens of meters away.
The "savage" cavalry at the front was hit by crossbows and fell off their horses in pieces.
These "savage" cavalry also had archers, but the bows they used were crudely made and it was difficult to shoot that far. Even if they managed to hit the Zhou soldiers, they would have little lethality.
It's too late, but it's too late. After the horse archers, there is a real cavalry hedge.
The two parties collided with each other with a bang. The fighting was not as constant and inextricable as imagined, and the situation soon became one-sided.
Previously, the crossbowmen under Wang Cheng's command had already suppressed the opponent's head and dispersed the opponent's momentum.
The cavalry under Wang Cheng's command were not only in complete formation, but their weapons and armor were several levels higher than those of their opponents. Such a huge gap was just like that between an adult and a child. The advantage was too obvious.
Originally, Wang Cheng wanted to do it himself, but at first glance, it was not necessary at all.
This is the easiest battle he has ever fought since joining the army!
It didn't take long before the group of "savage" cavalry on the opposite side were killed and ran away with their heads in their hands.
Wang Cheng's men and horses have already dominated the battlefield, following this group of "savages" to harvest heads.
Thousands of people were killed in pieces, their souls were almost gone, and they were running around like headless flies.
However, at this time, where do they have a chance to escape?
To the south was the Nanli Mountains, to the west the main road was blocked by troops led by Wang Cheng, and the remaining east and north sides were also surrounded by troops led by Captain Zhang Han.
A few minutes later, Zhang Han, riding a big black horse with a tall and strong savage pressed in front of him, happily rushed to Wang Cheng.
"General, catch a big one!"
As he spoke, Zhang Han lifted the tall and strong "savage" in front of him into the air.
Wang Cheng saw that this man had a belt tied on his head, and tied with a small white bone. The small bone was ground into the shape of a sheep's head, which other "savages" did not have.
"He's really big!"
Wang Cheng smiled and casually grabbed the "savage" strong man into his hands again.
This "savage" strong man was seriously injured, with blood oozing from his chest and wounds all over his face.
He raised his head, tried hard to open his swollen eyes and looked at Wang Cheng, mumbled something in his mouth, and then lowered his head feebly.
"What bird language are you talking about? Talk to me in human language!"
Zhang Han was furious and wanted to teach the other party a lesson, but was stopped by Wang Cheng.
"He is dead!"
Zhang Han was shocked when he heard this and said: "General, he was still fine when he was captured. How could he die so quickly?"
Wang Cheng didn't answer, looked to the west, and said in a complicated tone: "Do you want to know how these people got here?"
