Of course, Liu Yu could not see the death state of the low-level cavalryman who tried to resist. All this happened in the moment when the two sides passed each other.
At this time, Liu Yu had already galvanized his horse and ran behind another enemy cavalry who was trying to turn around and escape. The panicked cavalry did not raise his horse speed at all. Liu Yu slashed the back of his neck with a knife from behind, and his neck, which was not protected by a neck armor, was completely cut. With a sudden cut, a large stream of blood mist spurted out into the sky, and the head flew up and fell to the ground.
After completing the second attack, Liu Yu continued to move forward, his horse speed did not slow down at all, and continued to catch up behind the cavalry in front. This cavalry had thrown away his weapon, held the reins stiffly with both hands, and kept turning his head to look. To the pursuers behind.
Liu Yu quickly approached and slashed with his sword, but the cavalryman subconsciously tilted his head, and Liu Yu's sword missed his neck and struck him on the shoulder.
But the blow was still powerful with the power of the galloping horse. The cavalryman fell heavily from his horse as if he had been hit by a hammer.
After charging forward a few more steps, Liu Yu's horse speed slowly slowed down. He knew that the charging horses had gone all out and the horse's speed had slowed down.
At this time, there was no enemy cavalry in front of them.
Liu Yu and his guards all controlled the horses and stopped them to turn around. At this time, Liu Yu saw the corpses of about twenty enemies left in the place where he had just rushed. Many horses that had lost their owners were left where they were, screaming uncontrollably. .
All the enemies who tried to fight back had been killed. Only a dozen cavalrymen who fled on both sides and left Liu Yu's charge path got a chance to escape.
This was an easy battle. The enemy, whose strength and courage were inferior to his own, was beaten to a pulp. Moreover, he hit more with fewer hits, and only one person on his side fell and was injured.
Such a victory made the Donglai cavalry couldn't help but burst into cheers.
On the gate tower of Xia Mi City in the distance, Song Xian, the condescending commander of Xia Mi City, was stunned to see the entire battle process just now.
He really couldn't believe his eyes. The more than 40 cavalrymen he had high hopes for were almost completely wiped out by the Donglai thieves in just two rounds.
Song Xian's face was completely distorted with anger and fear, and his neatly trimmed beard trembled with his violent breathing.
"Damn Zhang Qi, incompetent, a soldier slave mistaken me!" Song Xian cursed angrily. At this time, it was not popular for people who valued literature over martial arts to call soldiers "Qiu Ba", but "veteran", "soldier" or "general" kind".
Song Xian's subordinates were also at a loss one by one. They didn't know for a moment whether it was better to call in gold and withdraw their troops, or to continue to increase their troops to surround and suppress this fierce Donglai cavalry.
But Liu Yu didn't leave much time to think for the enemies on the tower in the distance.
Compared to Song Xian and the others on the gate tower of the city wall, the infantry phalanx was closer to the battle site.
The Jin infantry in the array originally thought that their cavalry could easily defeat the Donglai bandit army, but unexpectedly they were killed in one round.
He was facing such a terrifying enemy. These peasant soldiers, who usually worked for the government, immediately stopped advancing, and the officers leading them were frightened by the cavalry confrontation just now.
These infantrymen and officers still maintained the last trace of sanity, and they all worked hard to maintain the integrity of the array.
They knew that if they did not maintain their array and fled in all directions, they would only become targets for being chopped down from behind by the Donglai cavalry.
Several officers worked hard to maintain the formation, and began to command and retreat slowly, wanting to retreat a hundred steps away, which was closer to other friendly troops and the city wall, and of course safer.
Liu Yu saw the infantry array in front of him begin to retreat slowly. He ordered the cavalry to follow slowly, and then he, Dong Ping and Zhao Xiazi moved forward with their bows, intending to repeat the same trick.
The three men approached on horseback. The Jin army's archers hid in the moving infantry array, and there was no possibility of fighting back.
Liu Yu and the others even approached the nearest infantry ten steps away before they started shooting with bows and arrows. Soon one Jin infantry after another was shot and fell to the ground. In the blink of an eye, there were more than 20 people. After being killed, the infantrymen who were already full of fear watched their comrades around them fall one after another, and the last trace of their sanity had collapsed.
One of the people in the array suddenly shouted, threw away the weapon in his hand, quickly escaped from the array, and ran towards the city wall.
This shout was like the first snowflake that caused an avalanche. In an instant, the array that had been struggling to maintain completely collapsed. All the infantry and officers no longer cared about the formation, and they all ran away towards the city wall with all their might.
When Liu Yu saw this, he gave an order, and the cavalry who had been sticking closely behind the Jin army's infantry launched another round of charge.
The galloping horses only needed a few breaths to cover the distance of a hundred steps, so the fleeing Jin infantry were easily overtaken and chopped down by the cavalry behind them. However, there were so many fleeing infantry that it was impossible to do so. All destroyed.
A large number of defeated troops fled back crying for their fathers and mothers. However, those Xiami Jin troops who were still besieging the refugee camp suddenly heard the sound of crying and running for their lives outside the camp, and had no idea what was happening.
The Jin army on the outskirts of the camp heard the panicked shouts of the defeated troops and learned that Xia Miwei Zhang Qi had been killed in battle. More than forty cavalry were all wiped out. In addition, when they saw the Donglai cavalry coming to pursue them, they shouted Moreover, the dust blocked the sight in the distance. These Jin troops thought it was a big defeat, and they all ran towards the city gate together.
Seeing the Jin troops on the outside beginning to flee, the Jin troops who had already entered the camp were even more panicked. They could not see the situation outside, but only saw the friendly troops behind them fleeing one after another. This must have been a major change, and also They all dispersed in a hurry, gave up the attack on the last few groups of refugee soldiers, and scrambled to escape through the gaps in several camp walls.
Looking down from the sky, a strange scene appeared, as if twenty cavalry were chasing thousands of infantry.
Liu Yu saw the chain reaction of the Jin army's defeat, and decided to add fuel to the fire. He summoned all the cavalry and began to form a dense line to rush back and forth behind the defeated army, creating even greater chaos.
If these more than a thousand defeated soldiers want to enter the city gate, they must first cross the moat through the suspension bridge before reaching the city gate.
However, the crowd scrambling for the first place had completely lost order. The crowd at the rear was driven away by Liu Yu and others, and they all pushed forward desperately.
At this time, next to the suspension bridge, Li Sheng, the commander of the Xia Mi Tun Army, was riding on his horse, roaring desperately in front of the crowd like headless flies.
"Back off, back off, there are only twenty thieves, why are you panicking!"
Suddenly, a huge crowd came from behind, pushing Li Sheng and his horses into the moat. Li Sheng, who was thrown dizzy, finally struggled to stand up, but saw that on the edge of the moat, one by one, the front row soldiers were being beaten. The people in the back row were crowded and pushed and fell into the river.
At this time, the Donglai Army infantry and the refugee army led by Guan Tao who were following Liu Hou also followed.
Standing on the hillock of the avenue and looking towards the direction of Xia Mi City, everyone was stunned by the sight in front of them.
"What's going on? Twenty cavalry are chasing thousands of people?!" Li Feng found it unimaginable that the Jin army in Xiami County was so weak.
"A man as brave as the overlord of Western Chu should be nothing more than this." The refugee commander Guan Tao opened his mouth wide and said in disbelief.
"Liu Jixing of Donglai is brave enough to be worthy of all men." Another refugee commander sighed softly.
