Chapter 631 Defeating the Prairie Army
"Young Master, should we take advantage of the unstable foothold of the grassland army, and defeat it in one fell swoop!"
After the sky became dark, Yang Ping came to Yang Rui and asked softly.
"No need! The grassland army is strong and has strong combat power. If we attack it at night, it will be easy to be ambushed by it, so we should just keep the city wall honestly!
Our mission is very simple, that is, tow this grassland cavalry so that it cannot go to Sunset City! As long as this grassland cavalry cannot support Sunset City, we have made great contributions and we may not have to defeat these grassland cavalry!
At the same time, our biggest reliance now is the city wall of Qingyun Town, and the crossbow formation, bed and crossbows we hide. Once the grassland cavalry launches a strong attack on our Qingyun Town, we can use the city wall and defensive weapons to severely damage the grassland cavalry. At that time, we are taking the initiative to attack and defeat the grassland cavalry in one fell swoop!"
Hearing Yang Ping's words, Yang Rui shook his head gently and said.
Hearing Yang Rui's words, Yang Ping nodded gently, indicating that he understood.
"Mr. Commander, the Yang family army did not take the opportunity to attack the camp. Have we started a strong attack on Qingyun Town?"
When the sky began to light up slowly, Hu Ming, deputy commander of the grassland cavalry, said to Xiong Hai, commander of the grassland cavalry, with a helpless look on his face.
"Order the army to repair for three days and not to attack the city for the time being!" Xiong Hai pondered for a little while and said with a calm expression on his face.
"Yes, Master Commander!" Hu Ming responded loudly and conveyed Xiong Hai's order.
In the next few days, 100,000 grassland cavalry remained unmoved in the camp and had no intention of siege. The Yang family army in Qingyun Town was unmoved under Yang Rui's orders, guarding the city walls tightly, without any intention of leaving the city to fight.
When 100,000 grassland cavalry and the Yang family army confronted each other in Qingyun Town, the main army of the grassland tribe, led by the grassland king, had a fierce confrontation with Zhao Kun, the Zhao army led by Zhao Kun, the county magistrate of the sunset county, with Sunset City as the center. Every day, a large number of grassland cavalry and Zhao elites died. Both sides fought real fire, and even the monks in the rear had a fierce confrontation, with many casualties and injuries.
The main army of the grassland and the elite army of Zhao fought a draw near Sunset City, which made the grassland king very angry. He immediately sent a messenger to Qingyun Town, asking Xiong Hai to capture Qingyun Town as soon as possible, and then rushed to Sunset City to assist in attacking Sunset City.
Under such a situation of even force, there were 100,000 elite grassland cavalry. The Grassland King was sure to defeat the Zhao army and attack Sunset City. Therefore, the Grassland King directly ordered Xiong Hai to capture Qingyun Town as soon as possible, and then brought 100,000 grassland cavalry back to Sunset City.
Although Xiong Hai, who received the order from the Grassland King, was unwilling to use his grassland cavalry to attack the city, he could only order some siege equipment to be built, so that the cavalry under him would dismount, hold shields, carry cloud ladders, and push various siege tools such as siege hammers to attack Qingyun Town.
"Finally come!"
Looking at the grassland cavalry approaching quickly, Yang Rui showed a faint smile on his lips and muttered softly.
Amid Yang Rui's muttering, more than 20,000 vanguard troops of the grassland cavalry slowly entered the range of the Qingyun Town Guard. A soldier guarded the city pulled his bows like a full moon, pouring sharp arrows towards the siege of the grassland cavalry, and ruthlessly shot and killed a prairie cavalry.
However, most of the grassland cavalry were wearing large shields, and the lethality of the arrows was limited. Most of the grassland cavalry were smoothly approaching the walls of Qingyun Town, and began to erect ladders to climb up the walls of Qingyun Town.
Seeing this, the Yang family army on the city wall immediately poured down the defensive weapons such as rolling stones, rolling wood, hot oil, etc., and bombarded a grassland cavalry.
"The whole army attacked and captured Qingyun Town in one fell swoop!"
Xiong Hai, the commander of the grassland cavalry in the rear, saw that his army had successfully attacked the city wall of Qingyun Town. Some soldiers even climbed up the city wall and began to fight fiercely with the Yang family army on the city wall. A look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and waved his hand and ordered loudly.
Immediately afterwards, the 70,000 grassland cavalry behind dismounted, holding scimitars, and made a series of shocking shouts of killing. They rushed straight towards the city wall of Qingyun Town, preparing to enter Qingyun Town in one fell swoop, kill the Yang family army, and rob the wealth of Qingyun Town.
"No need to stay behind, attack with all your might!"
Seeing that all the grassland cavalry moved, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Yang Rui's mouth, a look of expectation flashed in his eyes, and he ordered softly.
Immediately afterwards, I saw a black cloth lifted from the bed crossbows, and huge crossbow arrows shot out in the crisp sounds, traversing through the void like lightning, easily piercing through the big shields, and shooting a grassland cavalry.
At the same time, crossbow formations were pushed out, and crossbow arrows shot out from the crossbow formation, forming a dense rain of arrows, shooting towards the grassland cavalry under the city wall.
The number of crossbow formations was as high as more than one thousand. In just less than a minute, hundreds of thousands of crossbow arrows were fired, forming a dense rain of arrows that were all-round and without dead corners. The grassland cavalry under the city wall was instantly pierced by countless arrows, blood splashed, and shrill screams made, becoming broken corpses.
In a moment, tens of thousands of grassland cavalry died on the spot. Within a thousand meters below the wall of Qingyun Town, no standing grassland cavalry all turned into hedgehogs.
"How is this possible! How could Qingyun Town emit such a dense rain of arrows!"
Seeing that tens of thousands of elite soldiers on his side were wiped out by dense rain of arrows in the blink of an eye, none of them survived, this made Xiong Hai in the back flash a look of horror, and he couldn't believe the facts in front of him.
When Xiong Hai was frightened, the more than 50,000 grassland cavalry who were storming towards Qingyun Town when they saw the miserable appearance of their companions in front of them, they made terrifying roars, and immediately wanted to turn around and escape backward.
However, the grassland cavalry had already begun to charge, and the grassland cavalry in front wanted to turn around and escape, but the grassland cavalry behind were still rushing forward. The two sides immediately collided and fell together, causing the formation of the grassland cavalry in chaos.
At this moment, the defenders on the wall of Qingyun Town took out the hand crossbow from their waists, aimed at the hundreds of grassland cavalry on the walls, shot them ruthlessly, and then quickly adjusted the direction of a door-to-door crossbow, poured crossbow arrows about a meter long towards the grassland cavalry, and shot a grassland cavalry ruthlessly.
"The army follows me to charge!"
At the same time, the gate of Qingyun Town was wide open, and more than 10,000 elite Yang family troops, led by Yang Rui, rode a black-scale horse and charged straight towards the grassland cavalry.
Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!
Amid the shocking shouts of killing, more than 10,000 elite Yang family members rode black scale horses, quickly crossed a thousand meters away, and rushed to the chaotic grassland cavalry. They took out hand crossbows hanging on horses, aimed at the grassland cavalry, ruthlessly pulled the trigger, and poured one crossbow arrow into the grassland cavalry.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Accompanied by the crisp sound of breaking through the air, sharp crossbow arrows, with the whistling sound of wind, pierced through the body of a grassland cavalry, making it a broken corpse.
Immediately afterwards, more than 10,000 Yang family troops entered the grassland cavalry group, waved their sharp swords, and slashed towards the grassland cavalry, ruthlessly killing a grassland cavalry.
At this time, the grassland cavalry was in chaos. Without the assistance of war horses and command of officers, their combat effectiveness was sharply reduced, and they became targets of massacre and were crazily massacred by the Yang family army.
"Yang Rui, you deserve to die!"
Seeing that his army was being beaten by the Yang family army, and even being massacred by crazily, Xiong Hai behind him was furious in his eyes. He shouted, then raised the scimitar in his hand, and with more than a hundred personal guards around him, he charged straight towards Yang Rui.
"Covered by the rain of arrows!"
Facing Xiong Hai who was charging forward, Yang Rui's expression remained unchanged and he said in a plain tone.
As soon as Yang Rui's voice fell, more than 500 Yang Rui's personal soldiers raised their hands and crossbows in their hands, pointed at Xiong Hai and others, pulled the trigger, and sharp arrows shot towards Xiong Hai and his personal soldiers with the whistling sound of the wind.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Amid the crisp sound of metal collisions, Xiong Hai and his more than a hundred personal guards waved the scimitars in their hands and knocked away arrows, making them unable to cause harm to them.
Xiong Hai is a tenth-level warrior, and his personal soldiers around him also have at least the cultivation strength of a sixth-level warrior. The short-term rain of arrows could not hurt them at all.
"kill!"
Seeing this scene, Yang Rui's expression remained unchanged. He shouted lightly and activated the war horse under him to meet Xiong Hai directly.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The five hundred Yang family guards roared angrily, waved the big sword in their hands, followed Yang Rui closely, and greeted Xiong Hai and his guards.
Five hundred Yang family guards, under Yang Rui's training at any cost, also have at least the cultivation strength of a seventh-level warrior. Among them, there are more than a hundred level eighth-level warriors and more than ten level nine-level warriors. They are not afraid of Xiong Hai's guards at all.
"Nine-level Thunder Knife!"
When Yang Rui was still dozens of meters away from Xiong Hai, he roared angrily, and the inner strength in his body surged. The nine-level thunder sword was used, and the sharp long sword in his hand slashed through the void like lightning and slashed towards Xiong Hai's body.
"Go to die!"
At the same time, Xiong Hai roared angrily, and the inner strength surged in his body. The scimitar light in his hand flickered, turning into a stream of light, slashing towards Yang Rui's body, preparing to kill Yang Rui on the spot.
Bang!
In the sound of a crisp metal collision, the sharp long sword in Yang Rui's hand collided with Xiong Hai's scimitar, like a knife cutting tofu, easily cutting Xiong Hai's scimitar, and slashing Xiong Hai's armor with unabated momentum, cutting his body into two pieces, causing blood to splatter and drop on the ground, becoming a broken corpse, with eyes wide open, and I couldn't believe that he, a tenth-level warrior, was actually killed by Yang Rui with one sword.
"Master Commander!"
"The commander is dead, we must avenge the commander!"
"Kill him and avenge the commander!"
“,,,,”
Seeing Xiong Hai being killed by Yang Rui, Xiong Hai's more than a hundred personal guards changed their faces, and a crazy look flashed in his eyes. He urged the war horses under him to charge straight towards Yang Rui, with an appearance that he would not give up until he killed Yang Rui.
Facing the charge of more than a hundred personal guards of Xiong Hai, Yang Rui's expression remained unchanged. He raised the long sword in his hand and met Xiong Hai's personal guards directly. The inner strength in his body surged. The nine-level thunder sword was used, and the long sword in his hand waved out, easily killing a Xiong Hai's personal guard.
At the same time, five hundred Yang family guards rushed to the scene, waved the long sword in their hands, attacked Xiong Hai's guards, and ruthlessly killed them, making them broken corpses.
