Chapter 100 Riding and Archery
Chapter 100: Riding and shooting to show off
Daughter by the river.
The 150,000 Mingyue Imperial Army and the 120,000 Guangxi Imperial Army of Meng Yan have already set up their formation. On the left, the Mingyue Imperial Army of black robes and black armors are arranged in black, and on the right, not far apart are arranged in red robes and red armors. The two armies are arranged in a strict array and are clearly distinguished.
Meng Yan stood solemnly on his luxurious chariot with his hand guardrail.
Looking back, the flags fluttered behind me almost covered the entire wasteland, extending from near to the end of my view. Among the flying flags, spears stood like forests, and the cold light reflected by swords almost reflected the cold sky. Teams of soldiers of the guards in brightly-clad armor stood as if they were pine, and I carried the sky and the mountain collapsed. I stood upright and imposing with the aura that I stood against.
Suddenly, Meng Yan raised his right hand and the long and long horn sound stopped abruptly. Almost at the same time, the horn sound in the bright moon formation opposite also stopped tacitly. On the banks of the Daughter River, the desolate wilderness suddenly became silent. Only the north wind blows the flags of the two armies, making a crackling sound.
Meng Yan waved his right hand forward gently, and the driver gently shook the reins of the horse. The four red-colored divine horses instantly shook off their four hooves, pulled Meng Yan's luxurious chariot slowly out of the battle, facing the Mingyue Empire Army opposite. Almost at the same time, Situ Rui's Xuanhei chariot slowly emerged from the Mingyue Formation opposite.
When they were ten steps apart, the two chariots stopped at the same time, and Meng Yan and Situ Rui's eyes met in the air.
Meng Yan's face showed the arrogance that young people should have, and his big hand waved his hand and pointed at the country, who would be better than me: "Situ Rui, if you order your army to put down your weapons and surrender to me now, I will swear in the name of the goddess of light, and you will never make things difficult for you and your army."
Situ Rui smiled faintly, and his old face showed the calmness and confidence that a general who fought for a hundred battles should have: "Meng Yan, if you order the withdrawal of troops now, you may be able to retain some vitality for the Guards. You must be obsessed with it and be arrogant, which will only destroy your Guards."
Meng Yan frowned and said, "Situ Rui, I respect you as a senior general, so I can persuade you with kind words."
Situ Rui smiled and said, "Meng Yan, because you are the younger generation, I will tell you honestly."
Meng Yan said furiously: "It seems that we can only see the difference on the battlefield."
Situ Rui smiled and said, "I will listen to you."
After saying that, the two chariots turned directions at the same time and slowly returned to the formation under the escort of the guards.
Suddenly, more than a dozen huge drum cars had been pushed out of the two armies. Meng Yan and Situ Rui's chariots had just returned to the formation. The drummer standing on the drum cart suddenly raised the drumsticks as thick as his arms and smashed heavily on the drum surface of the cowhide drum. There was a loud bang, and the hearts of hundreds of thousands of soldiers who were waiting for the battle trembled violently.
"Dong!"
"Dongdong!"
"Dongdongdongdong..."
After two rhythmic drum beats, the drummer began to beat the marching drum frantically. In an instant, the sound of war drums like storm had already soared into the sky. Amid the suffocating sound of war drums, teams of soldiers wearing heavy armor, holding golden swords, took neat steps, shouting loud trumpets and slowly moving forward.
The Mingyue Empire Army is like a black tide, and the Glorious Empire Army is like a flame of hell.
Two large-scale troops advanced against each other in the desolate wilderness. Although they were slow, they were unstoppable crushing towards each other.
As the distance approached, the soldiers of the two armies could even clearly see the expressions of the other soldiers. The spearmen in the front row of the two armies pressed down the spears in their hands, and the sharp spear tips pointed straight at the other side. The sharp spear tips were flashing with cold radiance, and the strong murderous aura was raging on the battlefield, stirring up.
Twenty miles north of the Daughter River, outside the dense forest.
The 2,500 knights of the Scythe Knights had already completed the entire team. The regiment commander Qin She rode his horse through the formation, and used his short sword in his hand to slash the high-rise cavalry lances of the front row of knights one by one, and shouted loudly: "For the glory of the empire!"
"For the glory of the empire!"
"For the glory of the empire!"
"For the glory of the empire!"
The knights who were cut to the spear by Qin She's short sword cried out with the howlings. Not far away, the attendants with scattered formations also cried out with hysterical slaughter. Every time they saw the knights' expedition ceremony, these humble attendants couldn't help but feel excited, dreaming that one day they could become a knight.
Qin She's short sword slashed the cavalry in the hand of the last knight, then turned his horse's head and rushed straight ahead of the formation, then raised the short sword in his hand high, and was about to slash down, a long and distant horn sound suddenly sounded from the back. The sudden horn sound disturbed Qin She's rhythm, and the short sword in his hand forgot to cut it down for a while.
“Well…”
Qin She gently shouted at the war horse, then pulled the horse back.
The wilderness was lonely, and a group of pheasants suddenly flew up from the withered wormwood and flapped their wings to the dense forest in the distance.
In a flash, a horse with black and white four hooves had already rushed out of the thin morning light. When it was a thousand steps away from the Scythe Knights, the knight on the horse gently pulled the reins. The horse stood up, and the strong front hooves kicked twice in the air, and then sprinted heavily!
The knights of the Scythe Knights all turned around and held their breath in an instant. Although they were thousands of steps away, they seemed to be able to hear the muffled sound of the iron hooves as they paused. What made them feel particularly suffocated was that they were definitely familiar with this horse, which was clearly the mount of the late leader Situ Hao - Dark Cloud Gaixue!
In the suffocating loneliness, the knight on the back of the dark clouds covered the snow slowly raised the black gun in his hand.
The sound of iron hooves like tides continued to sound. The next moment, countless horse heads squirted out from the morning light behind the dark clouds and snow. As soon as the group of cavalry appeared, they quickly spread towards their wings with the first cavalry as the center. In less than a moment, they formed an extremely wide fan-shaped front.
The first cavalry slowly pressed down the big gun in his hand, and the black spear tip pointed to the Scythe Knights in front of him. The group of cavalry spread out in a fan shape urged their horses and slowly rushed towards the Scythe Knights.
"snort!"
Qin She groaned and finally came back to her senses from the initial shock.
The sudden appearance of dark clouds and snow, and the black spear in the guy's hand, are enough to illustrate the problem. There is no doubt that the guy in front is Meng Hu who killed Situ Hao, and the group of cavalry that suddenly appeared is of course the remnants of barbarian cavalry who lucky enough to escape the ambush and kill Yao Mingyuan to destroy the entire army.
However, Qin She did not take this sudden appearance of the mana cavalry to heart.
Although the barbarians on the Great Wilderness are brave and good at fighting, no matter how brave they are, they are still light cavalry. The light cavalry and the heavy armored iron cavalry of the Scythe Knights are not opponents at the same level. Qin She believes that at most, only 250 heavy armored iron cavalry can be sent to rush the group of barbarian cavalry in front of them, and then send the attendants to pursue them while they are victorious.
Qin She thought so and did this. He waved his sword forward. The two hundred and fifty heavy armored iron cavalry in the front row pulled down the metal mask of his helmet at the same time, and then activated the war horses under his crotch. The horse heads were crowded and the iron hooves were churning. In less than a moment, the two hundred and fifty heavy armored iron cavalry completed the acceleration and crushed the barbarian cavalry forward with an unstoppable momentum.
In front of the Manqi formation, Meng Hu's pupils suddenly shrank.
This is Meng Hu's second time facing the power of the heavy armored cavalry when he faced the charge. The shaking and overwhelming momentum is incomparable to any other military service. It is not a blessing for the heavy armored cavalry to have its current status in the Middle Earth world. In fact, even the strong-willed veterans will not help but tremble in their hearts when facing the heavy armored cavalry charge!
When the whole row of iron cavalry wrapped in iron armor with people and horses crushed, when the whole row of sharp cavalry spears stabbed flat, when the whole piece of dark and cold iron armor was confused, no one could be calm, no one could be calm!
This is the heavy armored iron cavalry, the king of land warfare in Middle-earth world!
In a flash, the two armies were less than a hundred steps apart, and the cavalry lances raised by heavy armored iron cavalry were pressed down one after another. The cavalry lances, which were more than three feet long, formed a cold and hideous spear forest in front of the cavalry formation. The sharp spear blade reflected a series of dark and cold light under the sun, making people shudder.
In front of the Manqi formation, Meng Hu suddenly raised his spear and slapped heavily into the sky, and screamed: "Document..."
The next moment, Meng Hu gently pulled the reins, and the dark clouds under his crotch turned their horse's head and rushed towards the left wing of the heavy armored iron cavalry. Behind Meng Hu, more than three thousand barbarian cavalry swept forward in a fan shape, split into two in an instant, sweeping towards the left and right wings of the heavy armored iron cavalry.
In the distance, Qin She, who was watching the battle, couldn't help but sneer with contempt. These barbarian cavalry were really vulnerable. They fled in panic without even having a decent head-on confrontation. Behind Qin She, the other knights also looked sarcastic. The attendants and cavalry were eager to try and were ready to go forward and pursue them while they were victorious.
However, what happened next surprised Qin She and all the knights.
The barbarian cavalry suddenly split into two, and the heavy armored iron cavalry crushing forward was like a heavy punch and penetrated through the gap between the barbarian cavalry. But at the moment when the two armies were barely intertwined, a tent of arrows suddenly shot out from the barbarian cavalry formation. The heavy armored iron cavalry who were sprinting forward at extreme speed suddenly fell over and over twenty cavalry knights had already fallen to the ground.
