Chapter 2205 Fierce Battle in Yiluohe!
Although this army is not like the army commanded by Wang Chong in his previous life. It was left behind after many battles with foreign invaders and it has sufficient experience in dealing with foreign invaders. But in a certain aspect, this army has reached the level of human beings. The peak of the dynasty's military power.
Wang Chong also wanted to see how powerful this army could be when war came, and how effective it would be in the coming apocalypse.
"Puff puff!"
In just such a moment, with only the sound of sharp blades piercing flesh and blood, Wang Chong's previous training quickly showed its power.
Swords struck these Yiluohe cavalry from all directions, including the horses under their crotches.
However, when the sword penetrated, the feeling was indescribably weird, as if it had stabbed a pile of cotton wool or something like a creature.
"No blood!"
"They can still move!"
In the army, a Datang soldier held a long sword and felt horrified as he looked at the Yiluohe cavalryman on horseback who was impaled by him.
If they were soldiers from the coalition forces of various countries, they would have been killed long ago if they were attacked like this. However, Yiluohe on the horse seemed to be fine, with his neck still turning, and his eyes looking at him superiorly. .
Almost all soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who could participate in this war were hardened, or at least strong-willed, but this feeling was not like human beings at all.
"Don't attack their bodies, chop off their heads!"
In the chaos, the roar of a Tang Dynasty general rang in everyone's ears.
This general is a general under Guo Ziyi. He once went to Youzhou to explore the news about the Yiluo River, and he also saw the power of these Yiluo Rivers with his own eyes.
In the past, only a few Yiluohe had that kind of power, which could fight against more than 20 elite scouts of the Tang Dynasty. Now, the power of the tens of thousands of Yiluohe formed by them is completely different.
Any slightest negligence may lead to unimaginable and terrible consequences.
The general's reminder was already very fast, but in the end it was a bit slow.
Puff puff puff, in just a short moment, a famous Yiluohe cavalry immediately broke the sword that penetrated the body. At the same time, with a flash of cold light, the sword in their hands immediately penetrated the body of the approaching Datang soldier.
boom!
The tall and burly Yiluohe waved his hand,
The overwhelming force easily knocked away several nearby Datang soldiers.
In just a few moments, Datang suffered another loss of tens of thousands.
But they were elite troops after all, and they quickly made adjustments. After hearing the general's words, countless soldiers in the densely packed army quickly changed directions and struck at the necks of those who were dragged down the river.
As long as the body and head are missing, no matter how tenacious Yiluohe's vitality is, he may not be able to survive.
However, the development of the matter was far from being as simple as everyone imagined. Qiang Qiang Qiang, sensing the threat, a man named Yiluohe crossed his arms to stop these attacks before they could happen.
Not only that, among the army, a cold light flashed in the body of a Yiluohe warrior, and waves of majestic Gang Qi burst out from his body like hurricanes. These Gang Qi were so cold that they seemed to freeze a person's bone marrow. And the terrifying power contained in it was even more difficult to resist. With just one blow, ah, with the screams, many Datang warriors from all directions were shaken more than ten meters away.
"Hooves clatter!"
But everything was far from over. Along with the rapid sound of horse hooves, the cold wind howled from the rear of the battlefield, and more Yiluohe cavalry lined up in a formation, shooting like lightning from the wind.
The Yiluohe cavalry behind them were incredibly fast. At first glance, they were still dozens of meters away, but in the blink of an eye, they had already appeared in front of Datang's defense line.
"Qiang!"
Amidst the sound of Qingyue's sword, a simple, embroidered ancient weapon was raised high, and suddenly fell down heavily. Boom, the power of that sword was unbelievable. Just one sword, and it actually knocked down a defending defender. The Tang soldier was split in half from his left shoulder to his right abdomen.
The powerful force even split the split body into left and right parts and flew out, and even the armor on his body was split into two halves.
And Yiluohe's attack method is far more than that simple. These inhuman life forms are far superior to all the iron cavalry in terms of body shape, strength, and charging speed. Just a simple charge will produce a powerful impact. So irresistible.
Boom boom boom!
The 30,000-strong Yiluohe Legion charged through the formation, turning people upside down wherever they passed. Three hundred meters, five hundred meters, seven hundred meters... These Yiluohe cavalry were in the "Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Gods and Demons". "The Great Extermination Formation" continues to advance in depth.
"die!"
Seeing the army collapse, a General of the Tang Dynasty's eyes turned red, and he waved his sword in his hand. The thick Gang Qi in his body spurted out like steel, directly shattering the frost Gang Qi on a man who was dragging down the river. , a cold light flashed, and the huge head of a Yiluohe soldier immediately spun and flew out.
Although Yiluohe was strong, he was only a relatively ordinary soldier. He was still no match for those powerful generals of the Tang Dynasty.
"kill!"
Almost at the same time, inspired by the general, some powerful soldiers of the Tang Dynasty also launched an attack in the army. Puff puff, palms that were as cold as ice fell to the ground one after another. Others, like Yiluohe, had half of their bodies blown away.
After all, Wang Chong's troops were well-trained and had strong adaptability. Since stabbing was useless to them, they simply switched to powerful and heavy slashing.
If a single soldier is not their opponent, then use the power of the formation. Three, five, or even ten soldiers of the Tang Dynasty will merge their strengths into one, gather everyone's strength, and launch an attack.
In this case, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Gods and Demons Extermination Formation still showed its effect. After a crazy attack, at least hundreds of people and horses from Yiluohe were killed on the spot, and they were also dismembered. The kind of blocks.
These life forms in Yiluohe were too strange, and everyone was afraid that they would not be able to kill them, so they directly adopted this method.
Ants often bite elephants to death. In this regard, there is nothing special about Yiluohe.
"shoot!"
Almost at the same time, waves of trembling sounds of bowstrings were heard. Facing the invincible Yiluohe, which was constantly charging deep into the river, the ballista troops led by Su Hanshan launched another attack.
The situation was precarious. The Yiluo River at the front was only a hundred feet away from his ballista troops, but Su Hanshan remained calm and calm. His feet seemed to have taken root, and he stayed there motionless, as if nothing in this world could make him do anything. The emotions include life and death.
"Boom boom boom!"
The roars like landslides resounded through the battlefield again, but this time, Su Hanshan's ballista troops changed their approach. They no longer shot at the bodies, but directly aimed at the heads of these dragging rivers.
"boom!"
On the chaotic battlefield, a man with cold breath and scarlet eyes, Yiluohe, was charging with all his strength. Suddenly, without any warning, seven or eight sharp crossbow arrows were fired at the same time from all directions, covering his body. After the loud noise, before Yiluohe could react, a huge head was immediately exploded and disappeared.
The headless body that followed Luohe also rushed out more than ten feet, shook a little, and fell off the horse.
One, two, three..., in a short period of time, at least hundreds of Yiluohe were shot dead on the spot by Su Hanshan in this way.
Su Hanshan's use of this method was time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the effect was far less significant, but at this time it was the best way to deal with Yiluohe.
"put!"
Su Hanshan waved his hand and ordered another volley without hesitation.
Following bursts of roars, hundreds more Yiluohe fell off their horses. A Yiluohe cavalry team that had already charged over and was only thirty feet away from Su Hanshan's crossbow troops was covered by crossbow arrows. , were all shot dead in an instant, and even caused a trace of chaos in Yiluohe who was charging from behind.
But despite this, Su Hanshan did not feel relaxed at all. This is not how the crossbow was originally used. There are many constraints in using this small-scale precision shooting method. Su Hanshan must try his best to avoid the crossbow arrows from accidentally injuring his own troops, because the crossbow arrows are powerful. The penetrating power makes it very likely that after he penetrates a Yiluohe, he may accidentally injure one of his own.
On the other hand, Su Hanshan must control more than eight crossbows and fire jointly. He must ensure that all the crossbow arrows hit Yiluohe's head at the same time. Once he takes turns to shoot and the shooting time is inconsistent, he is likely to be dragged down. If the river blocks it, then the success will be in vain.
The situation is extremely serious, and Yiluohe's strength is even more terrifying than imagined.
"It's almost reached its limit."
Wang Chong was overlooking this scene in mid-air, his expression equally solemn.
In this battle, the total number of Yiluohe killed by the Tang Dynasty so far is about 700. Compared with the end of the previous life, being able to kill such semi-exotic invaders with such efficiency is already quite impressive. However, compared to the 30,000 Yiluohe Legion, the deaths of 700 Yiluohe were only an insignificant number, and they were not serious enough to damage the bones.
"It seems that no matter what the truth is, those foreign invaders must have a great relationship with the Men in Black organization, and even those foreign invaders were directly attracted by them!"
In the flash of lightning, one thought after another flashed through Wang Chong's mind.
Many things I saw in my previous life were unclear. For example, the huge Tang Dynasty, even though it suffered several defeats in succession, a skinny camel was bigger than a horse. How could An Lushan lead such a small army to defeat such a huge country? The Tang Dynasty was in chaos, riddled with holes, and armies were defeated one after another?
Wang Chong didn't understand at the time and thought it was because Anlu Mountain's soldiers and horses were too brave. But now it seems that the key is not how brave Youzhou's soldiers and horses are, but the neglected thousands of Yiluohe.
"retreat!"
Wang Chong's eyes flashed coldly, and he quickly issued the order to retreat.
This army will still be of great use in the future and must not be easily lost here. Letting them see the power of Yiluohe will be of great benefit to the Tang Dynasty, the world, and even the entire land world.
At least they won't be as panicked and confused as they were at the beginning, which could lead to an even greater tragedy later on.
