And after attacking Xicheng for two days in a row, the Yanlong Legion also behaved very resolutely, and seemed to have made up its mind to defend the city to the death, and consumed the Paz Legion under Xicheng City.
Therefore, after today's offensive ended, the Paz Legion was also not the slightest wary of the Yanlong Legion. In their impressions, the Yanlong Legion was already iron-hearted, and they had to rely on Xicheng to mediate with them to the end. It's hard to get them to send troops out of the city. So when the night was getting darker, the soldiers of the Paz Legion, who had been tired all day, rested one after another without vigilance.
But what happened now made the people in the Paz army shocked and angry. In their impression, it was impossible to go out of the city to meet the Yanlong Legion. Not only did he go out of the city, but he also went out of the city at night very insidiously. Looking at the stance, they clearly wanted to put the Paz Legion to death.
And what made the leaders of the Paz Legion even more chilling was that the Yanlong Legion didn't know where to get another cavalry unit. After the siege of the city, the Paz Legion also decided that the news of the Yanlong Legion had been completely blocked. Therefore, this cavalry unit is categorically impossible to be the men and horses of the Yanlong Legion headquarters. But now this cavalry unit appeared in the rear of its own camp as if it had fallen from the sky. This situation made the leaders of the Paz Legion begin to speculate whether the Yanlong Legion also has allies outside the Zhongba Province. If that's the case, then this Creek City is really not so easy to compete for.
But there was obviously no time for the leaders of the Path Legion to think about the ease of the matter, and the first question now was how the Path Legion would face this surprise attack of the Yanlong Legion.
The Paz Legion seemed to have sent 200,000 troops to Xicheng this time, but no matter who knew it, among the 200,000 soldiers, 100,000 were men and horses from the other two legions. And because this unit is composed of coalition forces, the performance of the troops in the face of the enemy's night attack is also different.
From a distance, after the attack of the Yanlong Legion at this time, the Paz Legion was faintly divided into three parts. The three parts fight their own battles, only caring about maintaining the situation around them, and they don't care so much about the situation in other places.
Seeing this situation, Li Yi was happy from the bottom of his heart. The more loose the enemy behaved, the more beneficial it would be to Li Yi and them.
As soon as Li Yi led his troops to fight with the coalition forces of the Paz Legion, he first felt a sense of superiority.
The soldiers in front of him are not at the same level as their own cavalry team. Because they were in a hurry to meet the enemy, some of the soldiers in the coalition army had just put on their armor and didn't even hold their weapons tightly, and they were crushed by Li Yi's cavalry.
And even later, under the auspices of the coalition officers, the coalition forces began to gradually form a counterattack to compete with Li Yi and them, the quality of their soldiers was far inferior to Li Yi and their troops.
Just half an hour after the battle began, Li Yi glanced at Mel again. Although when Mel talked about the other forces in the south of Say, almost every one of them was worthless. Regarding this, Li Yi only listened with a skeptical attitude.
There are two reasons why Li Yi can't fully believe Mel's words, one is that in his opinion, no matter how weak the quality of soldiers of other forces is, it should not be weak. And even if Mel is well trained, it is really difficult to train a too strong force in a place like Jingchuan Province.
But today, when Li Yi really led this force to charge into battle, Li Yi finally really understood that when Mel was in front of him, he was extremely disdainful that other forces were just chickens and dogs, which was really because Mel was too confident in his troops. And it turns out that Mel's self-confidence is not groundless. The army he brought out is really qualified to laugh at the southern border of Sayyi.
Since the beginning of the war, Li Yi's cavalry unit has always maintained a tight charging formation. This cavalry formation was a formation commonly used by the Central Army Knights when they were in the Tianlan Empire. Although this formation is not the most subtle in the Central Army, it can really be said to be amazing to let it appear on the southern side of Say.
Li Yi led his troops to constantly shuttle between the enemy camps, as long as the enemy forces were slightly encircled, Li Yi would immediately let the troops change formations, and then turn around and reopen the killing ring in the coalition forces.
It is worth mentioning that Li Yi's team is not only well-trained, but the equipment on each cavalry is also the best of the best.
Because Mel was born in a cavalry regiment, Mel values cavalry more than ordinary leaders. During the years of development in Jingchuan Province, Meier invested most of Lingcheng's income in equipping his own cavalry regiments. After several years of arming, the equipment of this cavalry regiment of his own should almost be comparable to the knights of the Central Army of the Tianlan Empire, and may even be surpassed.
Of course, it was precisely because Mel invested too much energy and financial resources in the construction of the cavalry regiment that the strength of the Central Army was never greatly developed. After all these years of development, almost none of the forces in Jingchuan Province have secretly cultivated their own hidden troops, but the Central Army really only has those men and horses on the surface.
But if Li Yi was given a choice, he would make the same decision as Mel. After all, if they can have such a cavalry unit, the value of their existence will far exceed that of those troops who only have quantity but not quality.
On the battlefield now, this is the best chance to prove the wisdom of Mel's decision.
I saw that each of the cavalry of Li Yi and his troops was wearing heavy armor, although such armor was cumbersome, but when worn on the cavalry, it completely became an artifact-like existence.
Each piece of heavy armor is made of fine iron, and ordinary bows and arrows cannot penetrate the defenses of these heavy armor at all. And the agility of the cavalry is actually reflected in the war horse. The cavalrymen with long weapons don't really need to be too flexible, as long as the horse control skills are strong enough and can be ready to carry out the commander's orders, then they can only rush up, relying on the speed of the horse and the indomitable momentum. So for these infantry armed with short weapons in front of them, they are simply like human life harvesters.
However, Li Yi was not complacent because his troops had such a big advantage, and in the battle group, Li Yi was always vigilant about the surrounding situation. The current Li Yi is no longer the teenager who only knew how to kill blindly ten years ago. Because these cavalry behind him followed without regrets, Li Yi had to shoulder the task of ensuring their safety.
Therefore, as long as he saw the surrounding enemy troops showing a trace of unfavorable conditions for his troops, Li Yi would immediately order the troops to change formations, and the troops that changed the direction of attack were attacked, each time attacking the weakest part of the enemy. But Li Yi still couldn't adapt to fighting immediately after all, so after entering the battle group, Li Yi once again regained his former demeanor. Holding the holy sword Roland, he shuttled through the enemy army in a chic manner.
Seeing Li Yi's approach, Yadi and the others also did the same. After all, for a strong person like them, they prefer to rely on their legs to adjust their body shape. Sitting on the war horse, there is always a feeling of being a little constrained.
And after Yadi, Pat and Lincoln dismounted one after another, their terrifying lethality was finally fully exerted again.
Pat and Lincoln, armed with giant axes and heavy swords, are simply bug-like existences. They took the initiative to distance themselves from the large army, and around them, all of them were enemy soldiers. And in this way, they can give full play to their strength.
Both of them are playing with a wide open and closed style, and wherever they pass, there must be corpses all over the field and blood flowing all over the ground.
Among the cavalry troops, there were also many veterans under Li Yi back then, and after seeing Li Yi's might, they all habitually increased their strength to kill the enemy. But when they saw the bravery of Pat and the others, they were all shocked. They didn't expect that the combat effectiveness of the few leaders who had been silently in the troops was almost the same as their regiment commander at this time.
Seeing this situation, not only Li Yi's veterans felt extremely excited. Even the other cavalrymen who had never seen Li Yi and them make a move were shocked. Their leader is so powerful, this is undoubtedly the best booster for them.
Therefore, after Li Yi and the others exerted their power one after another, these cavalry behind them also began to fight more and more bravely. After the entire team exerted their maximum combat power, the combat effectiveness they showed at this time no longer looked like a force with only more than 10,000 people.
Of course, there can be such a one-sided situation that Li Yi did not expect. It was also because Li Yi and the others chose to fight at such a good time that the enemy not only rushed to meet the battle, but also suffered from the enemy on their backs. In this case, it is not easy for the coalition of the Paz Legion to be able to support it for so long.
After Li Yi led his troops to fight among the enemy forces for a long time, Li Yi finally joined up with the troops of the Yanlong Legion.
Although the troops of the Yanlong Legion are not as fierce as Li Yi's cavalry team, because the soldiers of the Yanlong Legion are all holding a blood of revenge at this time, the combat power they show at this time is really not to be underestimated.
And most importantly, Bettina is actually also haunted by the death of her brother Aven. When it comes to hatred for the Paz Legion, Bettina is far more than the others. Therefore, in order to be able to deal the heaviest blow to the Paz army, Bettina actually transferred 150,000 troops from the city at once. In her opinion, if this could not avenge his brother, then the Yanlong Legion would have no point in existing.
It is precisely because of this that the Yanlong Legion can withstand the counterattack of the Paz coalition army from the front. The soldiers of the Yanlong Legion were obviously well-trained, and by the time the battle was late at night, the Paz coalition had recovered from being beaten passively and were able to organize an effective counterattack. However, in the face of the ferocious counterattack of the Paz coalition army, the Yanlong Legion was even more excited. The eyes of every soldier of the Yanlong Legion were blood-red, and the death of General Evan had greatly stimulated the bloodiness in their hearts. They now have similar thoughts in their minds as Bettina does, and if they can't avenge General Aven, they'd rather die in battle.
In this case, although the Paz coalition army has organized a counterattack formation, it is unable to compete with the Yanlong Legion. In particular, the existence of Li Yi's cavalry unit weakened the strength of the Paz coalition army's counterattack to the greatest extent.
As dawn approached, the battle between the two sides had entered its final stage. Although the Yanlong Legion has always taken the initiative, after all, the soldiers of the Paz Coalition Army are not muddy. Despite the great advantage, the casualties of the Yanlong Legion were indeed very large. Of course, the situation with the Paz coalition is even worse.
Seeing that the sky was gradually brightening, Li Yi looked at the battlefield strewn with corpses, and finally showed a somewhat tired look. Even if Li Yi and the others are outstanding, after this night of high-intensity fighting, their bodies are a little unbearable. And Li Yi is still like this, not to mention those ordinary soldiers.
Seeing that this night attack had won a great victory, Li Yi also immediately discussed with Bettina and asked her to lead the soldiers of the Yanlong Legion back to the city first, while he took his cavalry troops to the Yanlong Legion to cut off.
Hearing Li Yi's suggestion, Bettina still wanted to continue to kill the enemy. But feeling the heavy fatigue in her body, Bettina also wisely chose to retreat.
After the soldiers of the Yanlong Legion slowly withdrew from the battlefield, the troops of the Paz Legion did not dare to pursue. Not only because they saw Li Yi leading his cavalry troops to the Yanlong Legion, but also because after a night of fierce fighting, the soldiers of the Paz coalition had no intention of fighting again. Seeing the Yanlong Legion withdraw, they felt fortunate instead.
Seeing that the Paz coalition army had no intention of pursuing, Li Yi slowly withdrew to Xicheng after staying with his troops for a while.
When Li Yi was the last to retreat into Xicheng, this long night attack finally came to a perfect end.
As soon as Li Yi's troops entered the city, many cavalry were overwhelmed and fell straight from their horses. Worriedly checking the condition of these cavalrymen, Li Yi found that they had just exerted too much force and collapsed. So immediately, Li Yi asked Bettina to arrange manpower to let their soldiers rest and rest.
And for these cavalrymen who helped the Yanlong Legion a lot, Bettina was very grateful. Not only did they arrange the best accommodation, but also sent a large number of doctors to treat them.
After everything was done, Li Yi dragged his tired body to Betina's side, and said with a smile: "Betina, you shouldn't have sent so many soldiers out of the city to meet the enemy. ”
Hearing Li Yi's words, Bettina couldn't help but be stunned. I didn't expect the Yanlong Legion to win such a big victory just now, but Li Yi immediately poured cold water on Bettina at this time.
However, although Bettina was quite puzzled by Li Yi's words, she was also a little uncomfortable in her heart. But thinking that Li Yi was not the kind of person who had no purpose, Bettina immediately put away the displeasure in her heart and patiently asked Li Yi: "Li Yi, then tell me, why shouldn't I send so many people out of the city." ”
Seeing that although Bettina had just won a big victory, she did not have half a point of arrogance on her body, Li Yi nodded appreciatively, and said to Bettina with a smile: "Alas, in fact, this is also a very contradictory thing. If you hadn't sent so many men last night, we wouldn't have won such a big victory. But we are not only fighting this battle now, but in the coming days, our goal is to dominate the southern territory of Said. So we have to take every opportunity to expand outward, don't we? ”
