After several light cavalry running in front were shot and fell to the ground, the cavalry in the rear waved and shouted, and the advancing team in front suddenly stopped.
"what happened?"
"Run quickly!"
"Don't block the way!"
The cavalry and officers in the rear shouted questions.
A squad leader in front quickly shouted: "Report to the captain, there are archers blocking us in front. Brothers marched quickly, carrying very few crossbows. In order to reduce casualties, we were forced to stop."
"asshole!"
"Hurry up and attack. If you catch Yi Liuyun, this loss will be nothing."
The brave cavalry captain shouted: "Don't worry about casualties, the whole army charges."
"yes!"
Listening to the orders of the cavalry captain, the cavalrymen and officers in front gritted their teeth and slapped their horses hard, regardless of the threat of long arrows. The horses ran forward quickly in pain.
Hiss!
Hiss!
"ah!"
"ah!"
¡¡
Kelande grabbed the reins with both hands, looked at the cavalry rushing forward desperately, and said in surprise: "I'll rein it in! Brothers, retreat quickly."
"We are fighting and walking at the same time."
Under the leadership of Colande, the cavalrymen who were lined up in five rows turned around first. The cavalrymen holding short bows shot at the cavalry of the second legion at thirty degrees. After shooting, they ran away. Some people outside stopped their horses again and shot upwards.
The two to three hundred soldiers at the northern gate of Shenmu City had just walked out of the city gate less than 300 meters away. The lancers led by Lin Fenghan and Ramsay were about to rush out of the Zhongyang line of the north gate.
Ramsay looked at the panting infantry of the Second Army coming from afar and said angrily: "Baron, this group of Second Army is so ambitious. They actually want to outflank us. We must teach them a lesson."
"good!"
Lin Fenghan nodded angrily and said coldly: "I am also preparing to teach them a lesson."
"Brothers! Charge together and kill these idiots who overestimate their capabilities!"
"Go!"
"Go!"
¡¡
More than 200 light and heavy cavalry at appropriate positions on the right side of Elantra rushed toward the north gate.
"No! They are coming."
"Let's put up our shields quickly!"
¡¡
In just two minutes, and within more than 50 seconds of contact between the two sides, more than 50 infantrymen of the Second Army who were already on the plain in front were scattered, and more than 20 people were killed or injured.
"Ha ha!"
Ramsay shouted happily: "Well done, brothers, let's go back and charge again."
"No need."
Lin Fenghan pointed at the Shenmu City soldiers who fled in haste despite military orders and said: "They have been frightened by us and will not stop us anymore. The first priority now is to evacuate here and prevent the cavalry in the city and the cavalry behind from catching up. Us. I don¡¯t want our precious cavalry to be wasted here, especially those that have been trained in actual combat.¡±
"Baron, let's go! Colande and the others have caught up." Bosmi quickly ran over and pointed at the horse archers behind him.
"Um!"
Lin Fenghan nodded and said quickly: "Brothers, let's go!"
¡¡
In the battle near noon, the Elantra cavalry broke up and killed more than 60 people, losing three or five cavalry, and occupied the top slightly. However, as more than 500 reinforcements arrived, more and more reinforcements of 200 to 300 people from Shenmu City continued to rush to Shenmu City under the investigation of the Elante cavalry. At this time, the total strength of Shenmu City was about 5,000.
At twelve noon on November 21, 1920, a huge meeting was held in the town center of Shenmu City. Bratty pounded the table excitedly and said: "General Blair, our reinforcements have arrived one after another. The total number of troops in the city has reached 5,200. It's time to teach this little guy like Baron Elantra a lesson."
"No!"
Bumisxiu said cautiously: "From the morning to just now, our battle has been in a state of failure, and the morale of the soldiers is not high. In addition, the reinforcements have been marching for a long time, and they are already exhausted."?It requires rest and reorganization to regain combat effectiveness. "
"Although the number of our troops is no less than theirs, it is still very difficult to win."
Vice General Pasler nodded and said: "What General Boumisio said makes sense. We still have about 1,200 to 1,700 reinforcements on the way. All we have to do now is to be vigilant at all times and protect the reinforcements in our rear. Line, wait for reinforcements to arrive, and then use absolute strength to annihilate them."
"Um!"
"very good!"
Blair stood up with satisfaction and clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Both generals are indeed talented people, and what they said makes sense. All we have to do now is to close the city gate tightly, work instead of rest, and wait for the reinforcements to arrive tomorrow to rest and recuperate." Just, set up a formation and defeat them all at once.¡±
"Brothers, drink, let us be on guard for a while."
"Um!"
"good!"
"That makes sense."
Many centurions, captains, generals and nobles all picked up their glasses and drank.
Lin Fenghan and others looked at the reinforcements in Shenmu City and felt that it was impossible to face them in the short term, so they completely gave up forming formations and yelling outside the city. Many Elante soldiers, under the command of the centurions, the generals of Kolander, camped at the foot of a gentle hillside four or five kilometers east of Shenmu City. Dig trenches, build fortifications, cut timber, and build ladders.
One after another, Elant's cavalry kept calling for formation outside Shenmu City. The soldiers from Shenmu City ignored them and started shooting when they came within range. A lot of information was continuously sent to Lin Fenghan's hands. Until about five o'clock in the afternoon, the soldiers from Shenmu City Still closing the city gate tightly and defending seriously, Lin Fenghan lost his intention to end the war within today.
"Good news!"
"good news!"
Iona ran into the tent laughing and said happily to Lin Fenghan: "We have contacted the compatriots in Shenmu City!"
"My elders have decided to cooperate with you in taking down Shenmu City."
"What?"
Lin Fenghan looked at Iona in surprise and Aixina who walked in with a tired look on her face.
