Chapter 7807 Eight Hundred versus Two Thousand
There was no sound of weapons clashing in the woods, not even a scream. What about those who left behind?
Cold sweat broke out on the forehead of the ambush leader.
He could clearly see that the armor on these pursuers had fresh blood flowing and dripping - every one of them had it!
But these drops of blood do not belong to any of them!
In other words... eight hundred pursuing troops instantly killed a thousand ambushing troops without encountering any resistance!
how so?
There shouldn't be such a big gap in combat power between the two sides!
The leader of the ambush was a little confused. What happened in the woods?
Lin Yi looked at the thousands of ambush soldiers in front of him carrying disassembled armor-piercing crossbows, and suddenly felt a little unmotivated. These guys were really weak!
Will this have any military training effect?
"Kill them!"
Lin Yi waved his hand casually, not bothering to talk any more nonsense, and directly ordered the guards to take action. After a brief pause, he added: "Leave a few alive for questioning!"
The eight hundred personal guards agreed with a loud voice, and each five-man team rushed towards the bewildered enemy on the opposite side with high morale.
Before they experienced it personally, they would never have imagined that the five-person battle formation taught by Lin Yi would be so powerful!
The strength of those ambushes was indeed not as good as theirs, but the gap was not too big, at least there was no crushing phenomenon.
Under normal circumstances, eight hundred versus one thousand people would have to fight for three to five minutes before a winner could be decided. If they wanted to annihilate these one thousand people, the Guards Battalion would at least have to pay a heavy price.
The results of it?
With the five-man battle formation in operation, the thousand people had no ability to resist at all. They all had their throats cut and beheaded, and they couldn't even utter a scream!
At this time, the guard camp's respect for Lin Yi had reached a whole new level, and it could be considered that they completely recognized and obeyed Lin Yi's command.
At the same time, their confidence in themselves is also completely overwhelming!
Are the thousand in front of me enemy troops? No! That’s just a thousand lambs for the slaughter!
"Destroy the Mountain-breaking Armored Crossbow!"
The leader of the ambush came to his senses and suddenly shouted: "Quickly, destroy it!"
The Mountain-breaking Armor Crossbow is powerful and difficult to make. It is a great weapon when the two armies confront each other. Their ambush can be killed, but the Mountain-breaking Armor Crossbow cannot be left to Lin Yi!
Upon hearing the order, the ambush soldiers did not hesitate at all and prepared to destroy the armor-piercing crossbows in their hands.
Some want to lift it up and smash it on the ground, some directly lift their knees and hit the long crossbow parts in their hands, and some want to pull out a short knife and chop it, maybe thinking that after cutting it, they can also fend off the attack of the guards battalion.
In short, these thousand people did not want to defend themselves at the first time, but wanted to destroy the Mountain-breaking Armored Crossbow.
From this point of view, they can all be called dead soldiers!
Lin Yi's lips curled up into a mocking chuckle. Are these guys having problems with their brains?
When did you still think about destroying the Mountain-breaking Armored Crossbow?
That time is enough for you to die two or three times!
Sure enough, the eight hundred personal guard battalion swept through like a strong wind and cut into the enemy's formation instantly.
And those guys just went to destroy the Mountain-breaking Armor Crossbow without even a hint of defense!
In an instant, countless blood splashed!
Each of the guards killed at least one enemy soldier, and the quick ones killed two, and a very few got three heads!
Lin Yi stood calmly outside the woods, hands clasped behind his back, watching the one-sided massacre indifferently!
These people should have been prepared to be killed from the moment they planned to attack Lin Yi, right?
So they don't deserve sympathy!
War has always been synonymous with cruelty!
"Commander! There are still three people alive here, shall we be interrogated by Mo?"
The deputy commander of the Guards Battalion came over with three surviving ambush soldiers to pay homage to Lin Yi. The initial unruly look in his eyes was gone, and only respect for Lin Yi remained.
The newly formed Guards Battalion is concurrently commanded by Deputy Commander Wu Yucao. She was left by Lin Yi in the Chinese Army to take charge of the overall situation, so this deputy commander is currently the actual person in charge of the Guards Battalion.
"Go ahead! Find out which side they are from! Send people back and ask more people to come over to clean the battlefield and count the loot!"
Lin Yi nodded slightly and gave a few instructions casually.
The deputy commander of the Guards Battalion bowed to accept the order and immediately arranged for someone to go back to report the news. At the same time, he asked his men to take the three prisoners and divide them into three places and enter the woods for interrogation.
Lin Yi glanced around the battlefield just now. It was not suitable to say that it was a battlefield. It should be said that it was a slaughterhouse.
Facing the massacre by the Guards Battalion, those guys on the other side were no different from lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
Some soldiers from the Guards Battalion were currently collecting the armor-piercing crossbows stained red by blood that had fallen into the pile of corpses.
These are all good things, and they will collect them carefully without Lin Yi's instructions.
This kind of crossbow is famous in Fuidao, but Hongshang County itself does not make it. It is a unique weapon of Heimei County.
It is not easy for Hongshang County to buy, so there are very few equipment in the army.
Black Charm County's protection of the Mountain-breaking Armor Crossbow is quite good, so it is not easy to capture such a long-range weapon. Once something is wrong, they would rather destroy the crossbow than leave it to the enemy, just like what happened just now.
I didn't expect that Lin Yi's personal guards would be so tough. They didn't even give them a chance to destroy them, and they just killed them all like chopping melons and vegetables.
Lin Yi actually didn't pay much attention to the Mountain-breaking Armor Crossbow. It didn't matter if he had it or not.
In the Northern Xinjiang war, Hongshang County was on the defensive side, and ordinary longbows and hard crossbows were enough. The same was true for an ambush and sneak attack.
Unless it was a sneak attack six or seven miles away like today, the mountain-piercing crossbow would be useful, but Lin Yi felt that he would not be able to fight at such a distance.
So after Lin Yi took a look, his eyes quickly shifted and extended to a mountain col in the distance, where there was a group of horses like black clouds!
Black spirit and powerful horse!
Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a little excited when he saw the group of black spirits.
Among the 20,000 people sent by the royal capital's garrison this time, there were only 4,000 cavalry. Not all of them were black horses, but some were ordinary horses.
But in that mountain col, there were a full two thousand black spirit horses!
Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh, where the hell is this an ambush?
They are obviously reinforcements that come to help in times of need!
Just when I was thinking about recruiting more cavalry when passing by the city later, they sent over two thousand black spirit horses. Are you so considerate and generous?
A few moments later, Jin Yuanbao came with two thousand men and women to clean the battlefield and count the loot.
The deputy commander of the Guards Battalion also came back at this time to report the interrogation results to Lin Yi.
"Commander, after the three were interrogated separately, one of them committed suicide without telling any useful information. The other two told some. After corroborating each other, not much information was obtained."
The deputy commander of the Guards Battalion raised his head and glanced at Lin Yi. After a slight hesitation, he continued: "According to their explanation, they are agents of the Selenium Copper County lurking in our country. They usually work as merchants, mercenaries, and hunters. Waiting for identity activities.”
