Chapter 140: Fight Again (Subscription Request)
While the White Snake King was waving his hands and shouting, the few divisions that had not yet crossed the river had already ordered their soldiers to evacuate quickly.
All the baggage and food were loaded onto the remaining bamboo rafts.
Two pawns rowed the bamboo raft to the opposite side.
The rest of the pawns stepped into the river, and at about waist or shoulder height, they swam or ran downstream.
When the armored troops arrived, the heavily armored soldiers could only stand on the shore and watch the chaotic troops who had already crossed the river.
With their heavy armor, it's impossible for them to swim over and chase after them.
There is no bridge to cross the river nearby.
They could only chase downstream.
The bamboo raft that Lu Yuan was riding on has reached the other side.
After confirming that all his pawns had followed or were on the bamboo raft, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The other pawns have little to do with him.
All of my team members have to follow me.
Without delay, after all the bamboo rafts had reached the shore, he led the more than 30,000 soldiers and headed northwest.
The scattered pawns over there will definitely meet up with their army at the agreed location when it is safe.
Now that our whereabouts have been exposed, we need to hurry and move on.
However, they had not gone a mile.
There was a series of "dong dong dong" sounds behind me.
There was a louder noise coming from behind than the previous river crossing!
Thousands of armored cavalry rushed towards them from behind.
The sound of iron hooves was like beating the heaven and earth, shaking the ground under my feet.
When the divisions saw tens of thousands of troops marching towards them, they shouted orders:
"Form a formation!!".
This armored army was probably stationed on the other side of the river from the beginning.
Now, their tracks have been revealed and the other side is chasing them with iron hooves.
They were far away from the river bank and could not jump into the river to escape.
This is also a flat land, so we will inevitably have to fight these armored troops head-on!
The soldiers, holding wooden shields and thrusting out their spears, defended themselves against the armored cavalry that were approaching.
These spears will definitely be effective against ordinary cavalry.
However, those who came this time were armored cavalry.
When they suddenly came into contact, most of the war horses ignored the extended spears and charged into the Tianxing army.
Even these armored troops have been dispersed and their number is only half of that of the Tianxing Army.
But after a fierce charge, many soldiers of the Tianxing Army were killed directly by the charge and trampling of war horses.
In this first wave of attack alone, nearly 3,000 of the 30,000 soldiers of the Tianxing Army were killed.
At this time, Lu Yuan was leading his pawns to protect the White Snake King, and with one shot he knocked off the horses of several armored cavalrymen who were rushing towards him.
The armored horse charged forward, and under the sweep of his spear, there was a loud "bang" as the spear hit the armor.
The armored horse let out a mournful cry of "Neigh~!!". The heavy armor failed to protect the horse inside at all. The huge force passed through the armor and directly broke the horse's leg bones, causing the armored cavalryman on top to fall off.
He was stabbed to death by a swarm of pawns.
Lu Yuan's pawns protected the White Snake King as they retreated to a lower and lower terrain.
Under wave after wave of attacks, the Tianxing Army lost many pawns, and at the same time they discovered that this terrain was a high ground.
Not far away, there was a downhill slope. It was not very steep, but it was impossible for war horses to climb down. By climbing down, their troops could avoid the pursuit of the armored army.
Although the armored army was strong, they had lost their horses and would never be able to catch up with them.
They only wanted to go northwest and did not want to fight with these armored troops.
The armored army charged again and again, and although they lost a lot of soldiers, they also climbed down the slope. Lu Yuan had already escorted the White Snake King to the slope.
He stood at the downhill point, ready to jump down.
Suddenly, I heard the screams of pawns behind me.
Turn around and look.
Then he saw that at least half of the pawns were still lagging behind.
A man in silver armor, riding an extremely tall warhorse, led the armored soldiers and continued to charge among his soldiers.
The soldiers of the Tianxing Army, whether they wanted to intercept these war horses or try to escape, were killed one after another by the charge of these war horses.
At this moment, Lu Yuan saw hundreds of soldiers from his own division die under those iron hooves.
His eyes focused, and he picked up a gun and walked towards the place where the iron hooves were killing people.
The silver-armored figure, riding a giant horse, led all the armored cavalry, and continued to charge at the Tianxing rebel soldiers who wanted to climb down the hillside to escape.
At this moment, the hundreds of soldiers were unstoppable. Some were hit or trampled to death by the horses, some died under the Fang Tian Hua Ji. They couldn't even escape during the charge of the war horses.
For a moment, broken limbs and arms were flying everywhere, dyeing his silver armor red.
A Fang Tian Hua Ji swept out, and the three soldiers around were cut in half at the same time.
The man in silver armor raised his halberd, and was about to kill the four pawns in front of him who were blocking his way.
But a black light emerged from among the pawns and pierced the horse under him.
“Chi~!!”.
The majestic giant horse under his crotch seemed to sense something, and dark light flashed in its eyes, revealing a human-like fear, and it wanted to retreat to the side.
A silver light fell from above.
"Ding~!" sound.
Fang Tian Huaji firmly held a black spear.
The man in silver armor riding on the warhorse stared at the black spear with some fluctuations in his eyes.
"Master Marshal!!".
"Master Marshal!!".
The four soldiers were overjoyed when they saw the commander-in-chief stop the man in silver armor for them.
Immediately, without thinking, he swung the spear and sword in his hands, took a step forward, and chopped at the silver-armored man and the horse under his feet.
At this time, Master Shishuai helped them hold up the Fang Tian Huaji.
They were stopping here with the intention of sacrificing their lives to stop the Great God of War and to buy more chances for Master Lu and his brothers.
Now, Master Lu has turned back to save them. Their lives are not worth mentioning in the first place. Now is a good opportunity to help Master Lu kill the Great God of War.
The spears and swords stabbed out, but they didn't reach him.
A flash of silver light streaked across the necks of the four soldiers who dared to step forward.
“Puff~!”.
Four huge heads shot up into the sky.
Blood spurted out like a pillar.
The body fell backwards.
A large amount of hot blood sprayed onto Lu Yuan's face.
It dyed his vision red.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and with his slightly red hands, he slowly took back the spear that had been taken aside.
Even his spear also blocked the opponent's halberd.
But the opponent's blow was so powerful that even though he held the weapon with both hands, he was still taken aside.
Unable to stop the opponent, he chopped off the heads of several of his pawns.
