The battle lasted for more than half an hour, and Qianyan's army was reduced by more than a quarter. Nearly six thousand soldiers fell densely on a small battlefield with a radius of two to three kilometers. However, Munata's heavy armored cavalry was almost intact, with only a few Several people were hit by the Qianyan Army's mountain cannon, and their bodies were so pale that they could no longer be seen.
But there are still more than 900 people who can maintain the charging posture. Judging from the casualties, they are far better than the Qianyan Army. But in fact, the power they gained from burning their souls is almost exhausted.
Among the Qianyan Army present, only a handful were able to perform slashing or thrusting movements. The vast majority of Qianyan Army soldiers were out of strength and could only use their weapons to support their bodies and barely stand still.
Even if they are surrounded by opponents who are fighting for their lives, most of the Qianyan Army are unable to block or attack.
Different from the ordinary round-robin battle between the two armies, the Qianyan Army was behind the Liyue Homeland. The soldiers from the entire Beida Battalion who could fight pressed forward. They relied on their numerical superiority to restrain the cavalry charge, and they fought hard for nearly three hours. The body is stretched to its limit.
The ammunition reserve for the mountain-opening artillery in Liyue Port was about to be exhausted. The fuses that ignited the ammunition were replaced with concentrated rock essential oil with a higher risk factor. From time to time, the sound of exploding barrels was heard.
To the north of the road is the main force of the Munata cavalry. Their cavalry is gathered under the flag gun of the dragon-horned boy. In the darkness, the appearance of some kind of fire dragon totem can be vaguely seen.
Uncle Tian was far away from the main battlefield, and the guards around him were also very weak. So Vikas, who saw who the enemy commander was, roared loudly, unfurled the flag flying on the red earth, and led the elite warriors Rush towards the temporary camp where Tianshu Star is located.
The scene of slashing lances filled the battlefield with the light of swords like stars.
As the cavalry rushed out, the Qianyan Army infantry also dispersed and pressed forward. Munata's heavy armored cavalry regiment quickly adjusted their formation into three neat rows while running. The tips of the lances were almost in the same straight line, which showed their eliteness.
Although the oncoming Qianyan Army was larger in number, the scene was slightly chaotic. It seemed that they had no intention of engaging in another spear fight with the cavalry. Instead, they roared in sparsely and chaotically, looking like a ragtag group of people.
Facing the enemy's scattered formation, Vikas did not show any contempt. He urged his war horses to speed up the charge, hoping to directly break through the opponent's defense and capture the enemy's commander.
But when entering the final 100 meters of sprinting, Vikas suddenly realized something was wrong.
The Qianyan Army's formation was messy and erratic, and it was difficult for their wedge-shaped charge to exert its maximum strike capability.
In the final sprint distance, the soldiers of the Qianyan Army did not hold their weapons tightly and prepare for an attack. Instead, at the moment of contact between the two sides, they threw their white tassel spears smeared with rock element essential oil forward, turned away from their heavy shields, and resisted the menacing incoming force. impact.
The heavy armored cavalry were hit by spears with rock elemental force coming towards them. The originally neat array was instantly disrupted. The spears carried the rock element through the bodies of the dead soldiers, causing considerable damage to them.
But at the same time, the cavalrymen in the second row of the expeditionary force all pulled out their one-handed swords and struck at the Qianyan Army in the rear.
In addition to charging, slashing is also the most familiar combat method for the expeditionary force cavalry.
The heavy armored cavalry reacted quickly, living up to their reputation as elites. The cavalry in the back row took off the throwing guns behind them, and threw the spear blades that were originally intended to be used to break away from the line and expand the chaos. The fire mixed with the strong wind and surged out. Seriously disrupted the rhythm of Qianyan Army's defense.
Those in the Qianyan Army who had not lost their pace grasped their giant shields and faced the expeditionary cavalry, and the two sides re-entered the stage of hand-to-hand combat.
However, Uncle Tian, who was heavily protected by the soldiers, began to wear a full set of Qianyan Army armor. On the desk used to analyze the enemy's situation, there was a military intelligence battle report with a thunder wedge inserted.
"Except for the damage to the buildings, Qingce Village is intact. The people have moved towards Shimen."
"The enemy is Wuwangpo's resurrected soul. Physical attacks are ineffective and weaker than elemental attacks."
"Yuheng Keqing has brought the Dihuazhou patrol force and the Alchemist family back to Liyue. This report will be sent to Guiliyuan."
Uncle Tian reached out and took out the Qianyan spear placed on the weapons rack. After getting used to it for a while, he asked the herald to go to Qunyu Pavilion to inform Ningguang that the enemy force was too strong and the attack plan needed to be re-planned.
Everyone underestimated this unknown army of dead souls, even Ning Guang.
Now that nearly half of the Beidaying Qianyan Army has been killed and wounded, and most of the mountain cannons have been damaged, the best hope is to lead the troops from Guiliyuan back to Liyue to aid Yuhengxing Qingqing.
This battle is different from any battle that Uncle Tian has commanded. After one's own weapons, trenches, and defensive equipment lost their due power, Qianyan's army could still maintain its defensive formation without being defeated. This is already the best situation.
Uncle Tian is the Qixing responsible for Liyue's military management. Although he is old, his own strength is not weak. The Qianyan spear that ordinary Qianyan soldiers cannot wield is like an arm in his hand. The strong muscles covered with the traces of time show that It shows the old man's all-powerful strength when he was young.
"Zhenxiang, Ai Ke, you two are temporarily in charge of military mobilization and logistics."
"If Yanbo comes back alive, I will give him full power over the defense mission."
Uncle Tian ordered with a serious look.
He had discovered the decline of the Qianyan Army. Facing the demon-like cavalry, fear appeared in the eyes of the soldiers. If the battle situation continued to deteriorate, defeat would only be a matter of time.
What the Qianyan Army urgently needs now is someone who can boost morale and act as a backbone to respond to the enemy.
Tianshuxing carefully arranged the breastplate on his chest, handed over the logistics command to the two most promising young people as if to lay down the funeral arrangements, and immediately headed towards Famas with a gun.
It was time to show the enemy whether he, an old man, could still wield the spear of the ancient Qianyan Army.
The Tianshu connects the north and the south, and the greedy wolf destroys the country!
Uncle Tian led his adjutants and bodyguards into the battle. His martial arts skills far surpassed those of others, as well as the sharp spears with the power of rock elements, allowing this strange force to quickly penetrate the side defense line of the cavalry and join the army.
The arrival of the Liyue Tianshu Star boosted the morale of the Qianyan Army, and even louder calls resounded through the Qianyan Army Formation. Munata's cavalry also saw their biggest target and spontaneously gathered to attack in the direction of the Tianshu Star.
However, when the war progresses to the scale of tens of thousands of people, personal bravery can no longer completely affect the overall situation and can only be used to improve morale.
However, just as Uncle Tian was slashing with his gun, Famas, who was aiming to attack the captain of the Qianyan Army, had already arrived in front of him. His hot breath, like a burning fire, made those who approached him retreat in fear.
Although he knew that the man on horseback was the enemy commander, the Famas in front of him seemed to be no longer a human being, but some kind of terrifying existence under armor.
That kind of oppressive force was like the feeling of majesty and solemnity that Uncle Tian felt when he met the Emperor of the Rock King for the first time after he took over as Liyue Seven Stars.
