The Jie soldiers who were on guard outside Dayang Village also saw the escort troops rushing towards them. The horns sounded immediately. When the Jie soldiers who were searching around the village heard the horns, they immediately dropped the goods they were searching and rushed toward them. Rushing from outside the village.
A big man who looked like a leader was furious with the people in the tunnel. All these people got into the tunnel. Now no one was seen. They also lost more than a dozen soldiers for no reason. At this time, they saw the Daxia army rushing towards them. When I came, I immediately wanted to spread the fire of ignorance on these soldiers.
"You are really looking for death. You guys, kill all these two-legged sheep for me and leave not a single one alive." The big man gave the order, and the Jie soldiers mounted their horses and rushed towards Zhou Hu, Wei Xiang and the others. In their eyes, , this group of Daxia people are simply vulnerable. Even if they are wearing hard armor, they are still lambs. In the past years, they huddled inside the city walls. Even if they went to Yancheng to provoke, they did not dare to step out of the city. , now actually ran into the wild.
Zhou Hu visually measured the distance between the two parties. Since the speed of the war horses was relatively fast, he could not wait until the distance was completely suitable before launching. Otherwise, the crossbow arrows would fall behind the enemy. When the distance was almost close, Zhou Hu gave an order: " shoot".
Two hundred crossbow arrows shot forward diagonally. A moment later, thirty soldiers in the Jie tribe's camp were hit by arrows and fell to the ground. The cavalry behind them tried to avoid it and also bumped into the overturned war horses in front.
Caught off guard and suffered a loss, the leader of the Jie clan shouted: "Hurry up and shoot the arrow, shoot the arrow."
Because the shooting distance of bows and arrows is not as far as that of crossbows, the Jie soldiers did not release the arrows in advance, but wanted to wait a little closer. However, they never expected that the Daxia army would ride on horseback and use crossbows. In a panic
"Kill"
"Kill"
The two cavalry parties quickly stood together. The leader of the Jie clan held a big sword and slashed fiercely at Zhou Hu who was directly in front. However, before his sword could fall, Zhou Hu's spear suddenly shot forward and penetrated Jie directly. The tribe leader's chest caused him to fly backwards and directly hit the horse of another Jie tribe soldier behind him, hitting the horse's head heavily. The horse was hit by the big man and immediately lost its balance and fell to the ground. The Jie soldiers on horseback fell heavily to the ground and were trampled to death by the horses behind them.
The palace guards of the palace are already very strong in martial arts, and they are protected by armor. They have nothing to fear. They follow one principle: you cut yours, and I cut mine. It is clear that they will rely on their equipment to eat you alive in one round. , most of the Jie soldiers were killed or injured. On the other hand, only a dozen people from the escort were knocked off their horses. Although they were injured, they were still alive.
Zhou Hu and others quickly turned their horses and rushed towards the Jie people again. At this time, the Jie people had realized that this was a small group of elite troops that could not be defeated. If they continued to fight, they would not gain any advantage, not to mention that the leader had already They were dead, and now they had no choice but to fly kites, so they no longer wanted to fight, urged their horses to flee far away, and at the same time bent their bows and nocked arrows, and kept shooting arrows behind them. Although the arrows had little effect on the armor, they It would be dangerous to shoot a horse.
Seeing this, Zhou Hu immediately ordered that the two sides continue to pursue. The one in the middle dismounted and shot with a crossbow. More than a hundred soldiers pursued forward from both sides. The one in the middle immediately dismounted, stepped on the crossbow with both feet and pulled the string hard, because the distance was still there. It’s not too far away. Within a distance of 700 meters, crossbow arrows can definitely run faster than horses. In one round of shooting, dozens of Jie tribe soldiers were either hit by arrows and fell off their horses, or were thrown off their horses by the arrows. In three breaths, There was another round of shooting, and once again a dozen Jie soldiers were hit by arrows. The remaining dozen soldiers had escaped from the shooting range. Since they were light cavalry, it was difficult for the escort cavalry to catch up. They chased them for a distance. The soldiers no longer pursued, they dismounted and fired crossbows, killing the remaining Jie soldiers. In the end, only one person escaped far away from the shooting range.
Wei Xiang and several brothers in the guard raised their swords and slashed at the Jie soldiers who were still alive, without any mercy.
Zhou Hu led people to quickly treat the injured brothers. More than a dozen brothers were injured, most of them were hit or trampled by horses. Fortunately, they were all still alive.
Seeing this, Zhou Hu ordered one of the guard brothers: "Six sons, go to the village and look for ox carts and carriages."
"It's the captain." The guard named Liuzi greeted a few people and ran towards the village.
Just when everyone was cleaning up the mess, Qin Fang's deputy general Hao Tong rushed here with the city defense army. When he saw the scene in front of him, he was immediately annoyed and regretted that he had not come earlier. But this can't be blamed on him. His men These soldiers have only learned to ride horses for a month or two. Using them as cavalry is just trying to catch a duck. To put it bluntly, they are just slightly faster than the infantry. They are not like their brothers in the Guards. All of them have undergone rigorous training. They can charge when mounted and form formations when dismounted. They are definitely the elite among the elite. After all, they can't be careless when guarding the emperor and princes. They are all one-in-a-million experts.
"I'm really mad at you guys. I can't even keep up with the heat when I eat shit." Hao Tong cursed at the soldiers behind him.
Seeing this, Wei Xiang smiled and joked: "Brother Hao Tong, I think you want to come to our Yamen and hang out with me. How about I take you to eat something hot?"
"I'm telling you, Old Wei, don't let your tongue slip away from you when you talk so loudly, and you still fool around with you. What can you government servants do? If you want to go, you have to go to Prince Yan's Mansion." Hao Tong said angrily.
"Hey, who are you looking down on? To tell you the truth, today our government officials killed as many as eighty enemies if not a hundred. If you don't believe me, ask Captain Zhou." Wei Xiang said with a arrogant look on his face.
"Blow it, just you guys, hum."
While the two were talking, Liuzi found two bullock carts from the village and carried the seriously injured guard soldiers into the carts. Hao Tong and others were left behind to appease the people and dispose of the bodies, while the others hurried back to Yancheng.
