Chapter 1527 Lethal Weapon

 When Dou Xiong returned to the north, his face was gloomy.

"General, the Immortal Army and the others...?" Two generals came up to greet them. In the middle of their words, they saw Dou Xiong's expression and did not dare to ask further.

Dou Xiong sneered and said: "Barbarians are barbarians, and they forget their loyalty when they see profit. Bu Liudahai actually asked for money in front of the battle. If there is no money, they will not take action."

"If you disobey orders, you should kill that bitch."

"Kill him now, and the undead army will mutiny immediately." Dou Xiong shook his head and said: "Now is not the time to kill him. After Long Ruijun is dealt with, sooner or later I will cut off Bu Liudahai's head with my own hands."

"General, they are standing still, should we continue to fight?"

Dou Xiong said angrily: "Of course we have to fight. Although they are stationary, they can still contain a lot of troops. Qin Xiao only has 3,000 troops under his command, and the troops defending the north are only half at most. We have 2,000 troops, and our troops account for

"You, can't we defeat it?" Looking up, he saw both sides fighting fiercely, and there were corpses all over the dam. He knew that the casualties were quite large.

However, the defenders' first barrier was clearly unable to withstand it. During the fighting, the Liaodong Army had destroyed many parts of the first barrier, so there were many gaps in the enemy's defenses.

Dou Xiong turned around and saw the cavalry behind him in full formation.

When the attack was launched, three to four hundred Liaodong cavalry did not rush forward with them, but stood by on the spot.

Dou Xiong saw that Long Rui's soldiers behind the first barrier on the dam were beginning to retreat. Apparently they were going to retreat to the second barrier to continue resisting. During this retreat, the enemy's formation became chaotic.

Forming a solid line of defense like before.

He knew the opportunity was coming and immediately ordered: "Qiu Yichun, the cavalry is ready!"

A general on the side did not hesitate, turned his horse's head, and immediately galloped towards the cavalry on the other side of the wheat field, drew his saber, and shouted loudly.

The cavalrymen originally dismounted and stood beside the horses to let the horses rest. At this time, under the command of Qiu Yichun, they climbed onto their horses and reacted quickly. They turned their horses' heads in circles, and all of them ran northward for a mile or two.

Then they all reined in their horses, turned their horses' heads, and faced the direction of Longba again.

Qiu Yichun was directly in front of the cavalry, holding a sword in his hand, but he was staring at Dou Xiong, just waiting for Dou Xiong to give orders.

Sergeant Long Rui on the dam has fully retreated, and it is obvious that he can no longer rely on the first barrier for defense.

Dou Xiong had already raised his sword high, flying under his command. Qiu Yichun did not hesitate and shouted: "Brothers, follow me and fight!"

Although the slope of Longba is also very steep, it is not as steep as Shishan. With the endurance of the Liaodong Army's horses, it is not too difficult to charge towards Shiba.

Dou Xiong kept hundreds of cavalrymen stationary, waiting for his men to break through the enemy's first line of defense. Before the enemy's second line of defense was fully formed, he used a time lag to charge forward with cavalry, completely disrupting Long Rui's army.

The formation prevents the enemy from forming an effective defense.

When a good opportunity arises at this moment, it is natural not to miss it.

Qiu Yichun took the lead, and hundreds of horses spread out like wild geese, roaring like a mountain and rushing towards Longba.

After all, they are elite cavalry. They train on horseback all year round. The riding skills of these hundreds of cavalry are very exquisite. They retreated two miles just to make room for charging.

Looking at it at this time, it looks like hundreds of sharp arrows that have escaped from the string.

After passing through the wheat field and reaching the edge of the ditch, many war horses crossed the ditch with long neighs, landed on the other side, and continued to charge towards the dam.

Dou Xiong's eyes were cold and sharp, like a knife.

He knew that this charge was extremely critical. If everything went well and these hundreds of cavalry were able to disperse the enemy before they could gain a foothold, leaving Long Rui's army unable to form a defense, then this battle would almost be considered a sure win.

When Long Rui's army retreated, some of the Liaodong soldiers who had broken through the first line of defense on the dam continued to catch up and kill them, but many others quickly moved away the wooden stakes and cleared out a larger

There was a gap to facilitate the rear cavalry to rush forward.

The slope of Longba was soon covered with a large number of cavalry.

Qin Xiao had already commanded his soldiers to push behind the second wooden stake, and the cavalry was extremely fast, and had indeed rushed to the vicinity before Long Rui's soldiers had even prepared a defense.

The few cavalrymen who were charging at the head saw many Long Rui soldiers approaching, and they waved their sabers, shouted and rushed forward, intending to cut them off with their swords.

Almost at this moment, they saw the Long Rui soldiers in front of them ducking away. Before they could react, they saw two Long Rui soldiers behind the wooden pile carrying a tree and ramming straight towards the war horse.

Only then did the cavalry see clearly that the tree was as thick as a thigh, and the end where it hit the horse had already been sharpened.

The war horse was unable to stop its momentum and collided head-on with the sharp wooden stake. The horse's neck was pierced by the tip of the sharp wooden stake and it immediately plunged in.

It was like an enlarged spear piercing into the vital points of the war horse.

As the war horses neighed, the men stood up. The cavalrymen were frightened. They immediately clamped their legs around the horse's belly and held the horse's reins tightly for fear of falling off the horse. But at this moment, there were already spearmen on the left and right.

He rushed up and pierced the cavalry on horseback with the tip of his spear.

Dou Xiong saw that the cavalry had already rushed forward, and he was pleasantly surprised. Who knew that the horses' neighing sounds were heard in an instant, but he saw that the enemy had actually brought out sharp wooden stakes and mercilessly attacked the cavalry under his command.

He really didn't expect that Long Ruijun would come up with such a method.

Just because he didn't expect it, he didn't take any countermeasures at all. Countless horses were injured by sharp wooden stakes. Some soldiers fell directly from their horses and were stabbed to death by the enemy's spears in an instant. Although some cavalry

He barely managed to hold his ground, but the enemy troops still rushed forward bravely. While the cavalry were still controlling their horses, they rushed forward with spears and swords.

For a time, the people on the dam were on their backs, and the cavalry suffered a large number of casualties in a short period of time. It seemed even easier to deal with than the Liaodong Army on foot.

When the Liaodong infantrymen behind saw the heavy losses suffered by the cavalry, they quickly rushed forward and joined the battle group.

When Qiu Yichun rushed forward, he did not expect that the opponent would use a sharp wooden stake as a weapon. He was caught off guard. The neck of his horse was also stabbed with a big hole by the sharp wooden stake. When the horse fell over, Qiu Yichun reacted quickly.

, with both feet kicking, he jumped up and landed on the horse. Before the horse fell down, he stepped hard on the horse again. He took advantage of the situation and jumped forward, swinging his sword towards a Long Rui soldier.

Cut through.

Long Ruibing was also unable to dodge, and his neck was immediately cut off by Qiu Yichun.

Almost at the same time, a spear from the side was pierced towards Qiu Yichun. Although Qiu Yichun dodged, he was still pierced by the spear on the shoulder. He roared, but he was also extremely brave and cut off the spear with his backhand.

A spear, with the tip of the spear stuck in his arm, rushed towards the spearman like a hungry wolf.

The spearman's spear was cut off, and he hurriedly retreated. Unsteady, his back heel was caught, and he sat down on the ground. Qiu Yichun cut off his head with a knife. The spearman's face turned pale, and he was about to be hacked to death.

When Qiu Yichun cut off the sword, he heard a "ding" sound. The sword that Qiu Yichun chopped off seemed to be hit by something, and it broke into two pieces.

Qiu Yichun was startled, and as he was horrified, a figure jumped out from behind the spearman, like a ghost, but it was Qin Xiao.

Qin Xiao had just beheaded a cavalryman when he squinted and saw Qiu Yichun slashing him with his sword. Without thinking, he pulled out his inner sword and hit Qiu Yichun's blade, instantly breaking the sword into two pieces. He did not wait for Qiu Yichun to do so.

Yichun reacted quickly and dodged over. The sword flashed across, blood flew, and one of Qiu Yichun's heads flew out.

"Colonel Qiu was killed...!"

Some Liaodong cavalrymen shouted in surprise.

It's okay that he didn't scream. Once he screamed, the other Liaodong soldiers were shocked.

Although Qiu Yichun was only a captain, he was also Dou Xiong's confidant. He was good at riding and shooting, extremely brave, and quite famous in the army. He died under the enemy's sword in the blink of an eye, which naturally made the morale of the Liaodong soldiers...

Suffered a serious blow.

Dou Xiong naturally saw it clearly and his face turned pale.

"Brothers, kill!"

Qin Xiao roared loudly, like thunder, and the morale of Long Rui's army was greatly boosted. They shouted in unison, the sound shook the sky, and their morale was like a rainbow.

The Liaodong cavalry suffered heavy losses. Seeing that the enemy had prepared a large number of sharp wooden stakes, charging up at this time would undoubtedly be asking for death. They all retreated. As soon as the cavalry withdrew, the large number of Liaodong cavalry who were fighting on foot became even more demoralized.

I thought Long Ruijun was a bunch of rabble, but now I know that it is really not easy to chew off these bones.

Dou Xiong naturally knew that Long Ruijun had set up three barriers before and after the dam. The second barrier had not yet been broken through, and there were already heavy casualties on his side. If the fight continued, he didn't know how many more people would die.

This cavalry is the trump card of the entire Liaodong Army. Not to mention all the treasures at the bottom of the box died here. Even if nearly half of them were killed or injured, they would definitely be criticized by the generals of the Liaodong Army in the future.

No one cares how difficult Qin Xiao's troops are to deal with. In the eyes of others, two thousand elite Liaodong cavalry plus two thousand undead troops, attacking three thousand Long Rui's army who are regarded as a ragtag group, is simply easy to capture.

If the incident caused huge casualties to our troops, it could only be due to the incompetence of the general.

Dou Xiong knew very well that even if he finally captured Longba and even captured Qin Xiao's head, his cavalry would suffer too many casualties and they would not receive much reward at that time. They would even be looked down upon by the Liaodong generals. Whether he could continue to serve in the army

It is a big problem for the Liaodong Army to gain a foothold.

The factional disputes within the Liaodong Army are already very serious, and no one wants others to make meritorious deeds.

"Ming Jin, let them withdraw first!"
