Chapter 282 Dajiaoping (Part 2)
Ba Chiman led a group of horse thieves to widen the distance, and then quickly turned the horse's head to prepare for the second charge. The control of the battle rhythm is very familiar to them who have been fighting on the fly all year round. On the contrary, this group of city guards obviously failed to cope with the casualties in the first hedging.
"Hold still! Set up your spear! The cavalry behind hold their ground and don't retreat! They must not be allowed to penetrate the formation." A city guard captain kept shouting.
The people around him obviously started to move as well, trying to make up for the flaws exposed by the casualties as quickly as possible.
Boom boom boom!
The horse thieves' cavalry were like a torrent, rushing into the city guard's gun array without any hesitation. After leaving behind the corpses of more than a dozen horse thieves, the impact successfully tore a gap in the city guard's line.
What followed was a barrage of arrows like locusts. The well-equipped city guards were beaten so hard that they couldn't even lift their heads. The horse thieves took advantage of this gap to open the distance again.
Qi Chengcheng stood next to Yi Xifeng, looking at the battle situation on Dajiaoping, and said with some worry: "If this continues, the city guards will not be able to stop a few rounds."
Wu Li on the side had her pretty face covered by a long scarf, but her nervousness could still be seen.
"grown ups!"
The silver aura in Xiao Yuanfeng's eyes dissipated, and then he waved his hand, and immediately a long horn sounded from the high slope. The city guards also changed their formation.
The cavalry, who were originally in formation and behind the spearmen, slowly stepped forward and quickly increased their speed. A pair of bright swords were set up from the sides of the horses, heading straight towards the horse thieves.
The Western Regions Mo Dao is a great weapon for cavalry in battle, not only because it is far longer and tougher than other weapons, but more importantly, it cooperates with the cavalry saddle to form a super large attack range. Whether it is against enemy cavalry or infantry, it is an extremely effective means of close combat.
The horse thieves on the Bachiman side naturally saw the change of formation of the city guard. The tribal leader had already prepared for the Modao team of the city guard. There is a certain gap in equipment levels between the two sides. After all, Loulan City is a famous commercial capital in the Western Regions, and its financial revenue is far beyond what a large tribe of horse thieves can match.
Therefore, it is obviously unwise to encounter this well-equipped Mo Dao team and have direct close combat contact with them. I saw a long horn sound coming from the horse thieves tribe, which was the famous "Sand River Horn" in the Western Regions.
The horse thieves who were about to collide with the Mo Dao team were instantly separated from both sides, allowing the Mo Dao team to rush towards them at a faster speed. At the same time, this group of horse thieves raised their scimitars.
"Stupid! Even the Mo Dao can't reach this distance, let alone the Western Scimitar!" Qi Chengcheng snorted when he saw this scene.
Dalamute, who was on the side, naturally heard it clearly, and then mocked: "The head of Qi University should be lucky that he met us at Loulan City that day."
As soon as Dalamt finished speaking, the battle on Dajiao Ping took another turn. The horse thieves divided into two teams were almost "passing by" the Mo Dao team. Seeing that the entire Mo Dao team was about to kill these When the enemy punched through, the horse thieves on both sides suddenly let out a chorus of shouts.
A scimitar was thrown directly by the horse thieves, directly greeting the Modao team.
Poof!
Maybe it was too sudden, no one expected that these horse thieves would give up their weapons and throw them to attack them. The Mo Dao of these city guards was very clumsy, and they could not block it for a while, so they could only turn around and dodge.
For a moment, people were on their backs, and many people were struck by the scimitar. Many others accidentally fell off their horses to avoid the scimitar, and were trampled to pieces in an instant.
"Put up the bow!" Bachiman shouted.
The horse thieves, who had almost no weapons in their hands, immediately leaned over and took out the long bows from their horse bags. They all pulled the bows and twisted their bodies, pointing the arrows behind them.
"Let it go!" shouted again. The arrows, like locusts, flew directly from behind and aimed at the Modao team, which was already in disarray.
…………
Qi Chengcheng looked at the battle situation on Dajiao Ping with some astonishment, and couldn't help but feel lucky for what Dalamte said just now. The Shenfeng battalion he led was indeed not bad, and it really showed its advantages in dealing with this group of horse thieves in the siege that day. But if we really mount a war horse and open up the battle like today.
Even if the veterans of the Shenfeng Battalion win, it will still be a fierce battle, and the casualty ratio will probably be high. When he thought about this, he suddenly felt that he was lucky enough in the past few years. As a famous large trading company in the Western Region and managed by the Holy War Hall, he had not encountered any powerful thieves like Ba Chiman in these years, but he had indirectly interacted with many powerful people. The horse thief got on the line.
Paying some protection fees every year can be regarded as a stable trading environment. Thinking about it this way, the little money that is thrown away every year is generally very cost-effective.
Of course, the dignified Qijia Trading Company would not say that this was their protection, but would just euphemistically call it "humanitarian aid." This word was told to him by Yi Xifeng. Qi Chengcheng thought it was very stylish and very suitable for him.
After this hedging, the Mo Dao team, which was the trump card of the City Guards, was completely defeated. Just one hedging cost more than half of the losses. Even if it was because the opponent changed formation too quickly and was caught off guard, the morale of the City Guards had already dropped to the lowest level. At freezing point, the outcome is basically determined.
"To make you laugh, I thought I would wait until most of these horse thieves were lost before I took action, but now it seems that I have to take action earlier." Xiao Yuanfeng suddenly said in a deep voice.
Lin Fenghuo continued: "City Master Xiao doesn't need to be polite, but if you have something to do, just give him the order directly."
Following the orders of his master, he assisted Xiao Yuanfeng in quelling the rebellion in Loulan City, and served as a frontline for Xiaoyuan Academy to spread Confucian influence in the Western Regions. Naturally, I won't back down at this time.
Yi Xifeng heard Heizi's words. After all, he was his best friend. How could he watch him go to the battlefield alone. He stood directly behind Lin Fenghuo and showed his attitude with actions.
Xiao Yuanfeng grinned, waved his hand and said: "Since this battle is the work of an expert from the Demon Cult, he naturally has his goals. Since the previous news has been confirmed, it means that the news said by Dalamt is indeed correct. .The demon sect’s target is me, and I can’t hide from it.”
After that, he stepped down from the high slope, and his figure disappeared instantly, and when he reappeared, he was already in mid-air. The speed of this movement alone is far beyond that of ordinary chivalrous warriors.
Seeing this scene, Wu Li jumped up and followed without saying a word.
Lin Fenghuo and Qi Chengcheng also planned to leave, but were held back by Yi Xifeng.
"What?" Both of them looked at him with some confusion.
"The formations under this Dajiaoping are a bit weird. Let's check first and don't rush into the formations. It may be more helpful to City Lord Xiao!" Yi Xifeng has done some research on the formations of the Demon Cult over the years, although he is not familiar with the bloody formations of the Demon Sect. He didn't understand it, but the formation was the same all the way, so he was one of the first people to discover its clues.
