Chapter 239: Turning Point
The sergeant who received the order immediately urged his horse to gallop to the yamen not far away.
Tao Zhuhu opened his mouth and asked Lan Ziyidao:
"What is the young master going to do?"
Although Lan Ziyi has planned several sets of attack plans in his head, these plans are very vague, and Tao Zhuhu is now suddenly asking Lan Ziyi is not easy to answer for a while,
According to what Li Guangzhong said, half of the soldiers of the Jihu battalion are now stationed on the street, and when the thieves besieged them just now, Lan Ziyi's station was attacked on all sides, so the Jihu battalion stationed on the side of the street should have also been attacked by the bandits.
Lan Ziyi's station is not far from the main roads on the west and south sides, and the fact that there are no defeated soldiers who have retreated in the past half of the day shows that this half of the tiger battalion soldiers have not been defeated by the thieves.
But there are many situations where they have not been defeated by the thieves, is the current Jihu battalion fighting with the thieves or has the thieves been defeated? If it's a dogfight, then what's the situation like?
Lan Ziyi's mind was spinning, and after thinking for a long time, he finally said:
"The Jihu battalion is definitely at war with the bandits, but the battle is unknown.
Let's go out into the street to meet the reinforcements and see what is going on to make a decision on how to support. “
Tao Zhuhu nodded when he heard this, and stopped talking,
The soldiers urged their horses to silently advance in the narrow alley, and after a while, they heard the sound of fighting in front of the left.
Lan Ziyi turned his head and exchanged glances with Tao Zhuhu, and the two motioned to the soldiers to keep their voices down and not to alarm the thieves
Then the dozen or so cavalry soldiers carefully bypassed the area where the battle might be engaged, and went out into the west street.
As soon as Lan Ziyi came to the street, he was glad that he was lucky, not far from Lan Ziyi's left hand, there were thieves fighting with the sergeants of the Jihu Battalion, and they were still snatching horses.
If there were no thieves, the streets would have been lined up with horses walking west along the streets.
But now, the horses are with them, and the horses are all warriors on both sides of the war.
The soldiers of the Jihu battalion are wearing armor and holding swords, it seems that Lan Ziyi ordered the battalion just now, and these soldiers are all following the order, but they are still a step slower, otherwise they would not be fighting with the thieves and robbing each other of the horses now
The number of thieves is not as large as the soldiers of the Tiger Battalion, and there are many people with blood stains, it seems that the thieves who were defeated by Lan Ziyi just now rejoined the siege, looking at these thieves who had just been defeated and rejoined the battle, Lan Ziyi admired the speed of the thieves' morale recovery while also considering the impact of Lei Youde's mutiny on the morning of the thieves' army,
These thieves didn't have much interest in killing the armored Jihu battalion, it was a difficult bone to gnaw, and the thieves' attention was on the horses.
In front of Lan Ziyi's eyes, he could see a thief who wanted to untie the reins of the horse when no one cared about him while the two armies were fighting, but halfway through the solution, he was targeted by a soldier of the Jihu Battalion, and the soldier shouted loudly and raised his knife to look over,
The thief reacted in time to withdraw his hand and dodge the thief's blade, and the sergeant's knife left a mark on the thief's chest armor, but it did not hurt the thief in the slightest.
The thief took the opportunity to stab with a knife, this knife was strong enough, and the stab was also right, and went straight to the heart of the soldier's chest.
But because this knife was too positive, the blade violently rolled up after the bayonet armor was on, and the blade was also bounced aside, and the thief himself even hit the sergeant's arms.
The sergeant was stabbed in the face with a knife, and he thought that his life would be over, but in the end, he hugged the thief, and he couldn't find the space to swing the knife if he wanted to swing the knife, so he had to pick up the knife and knock it on the thief's helmet.
Not only did this pair of soldiers who fought each other turn the battle into a mutual fight, but most of the soldiers fighting on the street became like this, the two armies were wearing heavy armor, and the weapons in their hands were all waist knives and sabers.
Lan Ziyi and Tao Zhuhu led their soldiers to line up on the street when they didn't find a new army entering the battlefield when they didn't find a new army entering the battlefield.
When Lan Ziyi was lining up, in the melee, he found the cavalry who turned around on the street, and shouted loudly,
Tao Zhuhu saw that it was a thief who shouted, and without saying a word, the string was an arrow, and the arrow passed through the chaotic crowd like an eye, and it was in the eye socket of the thief.
The thief screamed and fell to the ground and rolled, and the rest of the fighting people were also attracted by the arrow of the peach tiger, and in an instant, the soldiers on both sides of the battle on the street stood on the spot as if they had been immobilized, and many of them were fighting against each other, and they were wrestling to fight to the death and stopped and looked back.
Finding that he was being watched by thousands of people, Lan Ziyi bit his lip, Lan Ziyi and the dozen or so rode into the battlefield at a wonderful moment, triggering a wonderful reaction, what will happen in the future Lan Ziyi doesn't know, but Lan Ziyi knows that if this matter is not handled well, the morale of the whole army will be affected.
Time is running out, Lan Ziyi must make a decision immediately, at this time he can't wait to wear his lips, and finally Lan Ziyi relentlessly raised the horsewhip, whipped the horse's buttocks hard, and urged the horse to rush forward along the street, shouting loudly in his mouth
"The whole camp of the Jihu Camp is here, and you and other demon thieves dare to stop my Tianwei?"
Tao Zhuhu saw Lan Ziyi rushing out alone and just wanted to stop people, but after thinking about it, he understood Lan Ziyi's intentions, Lan Ziyi wanted to intimidate the thieves when he didn't know why, so that the thieves thought that the army was coming and scared the thieves away.
So Tao Zhuhu clamped the horse's belly with his legs, urged the horse to keep up with Lan Ziyi, and then pushed his legs hard, his hips left the saddle, took out seven or eight arrows in his hands, took aim at the strings, and shouted at the chaotic army:
"I am the peach chasing tiger in the northern formation, and the peach Saburo outside the gate of Xiangcheng is my younger brother, and he will continue to stand in place if he is not afraid of death!"
After that, he released the arrows in his hand in a row, and these arrows and arrows were not missing, killing a person with one arrow, and sealing the throat with arrows.
Seeing this, the dozen or so soldiers who followed Lan Ziyi also followed with flying horses, and they also set up bows and arrows in their hands, and then they rushed to shoot, just like practicing in the shooting range in the camp.
After the soldiers of the Jihu Battalion in the melee heard Lan Ziyi's "The whole army of the Jihu Battalion is here", they didn't know whether they really believed that the reinforcements from the government had arrived or understood Lan Ziyi's intention to bluff.
The thieves couldn't see how many people came in the night, but they saw someone riding a horse and rushed through, and then flew arrows again and again, and then there were friendly soldiers around him who fell to the ground, and they were shocked at the moment, plus the reputation of the peach rabbit outside the west gate of Xiangcheng that day had been shouted among the thieves, and the peach and the tiger were now self-registered, and even the beads and arrows, the thieves were so frightened that they were distracted, and the thieves who were still wrestling with the officials and soldiers just now immediately softened their wrists,
In fact, the thieves can judge the number of people by the sparse sound of horses' hooves and the figure of the comer, but the thieves are scattered, and there is no unified command, so things suddenly come and naturally have no judgment.
Lan Ziyi and Tao Zhuhu led their knights to charge all the way, and the thieves who rushed to wherever they were shot and their morale collapsed, and they became a plate of loose sand.
At the end of the melee team, there were thieves who saw that there were not many people in Lan Ziyi, but it was too late, and they were completely unable to organize the rout of the whole army, so they had to flee with others.
The soldiers of the Jihu Battalion who were fighting together swung their knives and slashed the fleeing thieves, but more people still hurried to pull their horses, if Lan Ziyi hadn't arrived in time, these horses would have been let go by the thieves.
Lan Ziyi galloped to the end of the Jihu camp before he stopped, and the soldiers who followed Lan Ziyi all the way gradually stopped.
Lan Ziyi rushed all the way, neither rushing straight into the enemy formation, nor killing and injuring the thieves, Lan Ziyi himself didn't even pull out his sword,
But the effect of this impact was extraordinary, the morale of the thieves collapsed everywhere the cavalry attacked, and there was no one who could still insist on fighting when Lan Ziyi galloped.
Lan Ziyi stopped, turned his horse's head to check the results of the battle he had just rushed all the way out,
Tao Zhuhu also turned around in front of Lan Ziyi, and laughed loudly at Lan Ziyi:
"Young master, so bold! The brave wins when we meet on a narrow road, and this time we only used a horse to drive away the thieves, what a smart take! ”
Lan Ziyi looked at the thieves who were scattering and fleeing, and finally relaxed in his heart, and replied a little embarrassed when he heard Tao Zhuhu's praise:
"I thought my eldest brother was going to criticize me for putting myself at risk."
Hearing this, Tao Zhuhu's face immediately became serious, and he said:
"One yard to one yard, the young master doesn't care about his name, of course he has to criticize if he charges with his eyes closed, and if there is any action in the future, he must first make it clear to the guards around him, if the people behind us didn't react just now, wouldn't the young master be intercepted and killed by the thieves? It's too dangerous. ”
Lan Ziyi shook his head and smiled bitterly when he heard this, and said in his mouth:
"Big brother, you really have to be unforgiving."
The casualties of the thieves who fought with the Jihu battalion just now were not large, mainly because Lan Ziyi's impact made the thieves think that the main force of the official cavalry was coming, and their morale collapsed before they fled.
Many of these fleeing thieves fled north through the streets, and the soldiers of the Jihu Battalion just slashed the thieves in front of them and hurried to find their horses, and they didn't have time to care about the fleeing thieves.
But the thieves who fled north did not flee far into the depths of the city after passing through the streets, and soon they stopped, turned around and began to line up again.
Lan Ziyi and Tao Zhuhu both found out about this situation, and the two of them suddenly lost their mood to laugh, and they both frowned and looked at these thieves to find out, but it was not their eyes that allowed the two of them to find out about the enemy, but their ears, because the sound of chaotic footsteps had come from the darkness on the north side of the street.
Lan Ziyi bit his lip again, he didn't want to look at the thieves who poured out of the darkness, so he had to look back at the soldiers of the Tiger Battalion under him,
These soldiers have just gotten rid of the entangled thieves, and are busy untying the reins and getting on their horses, at this speed, the soldiers are not ready when the thieves rush across the street to cut people, and Lan Ziyi's dozen or so horses have been seen clearly by the thieves, Lan Ziyi can't be bluffing,
Tao Zhuhu roared at the soldiers of the Jihu Battalion who were preparing, and asked them to speed up their horses, and set the strings to prepare to release arrows.
Lan Ziyi was anxious about what to do.
