Take the ride to dominate the game

Chapter 97 I Can Still Fight
For the Hejian Army, the situation on the battlefield is very pessimistic.

Five hundred Western heavy cavalry surrounded them from both sides, followed by nearly [-] soldiers from various families in the Western region.

In front of the Hejian army, there are unexplored traps, crossbowmen protected by swordsmen, and hundreds of lion family soldiers.

And their coach was still buried in the pit.

Fortunately, most of the infantry were Bracken's main soldiers, and Shili City was considered to be fighting at home.

Therefore, after the cavalry in the protruding part of the front stopped, someone discovered the traces of the passive passing of the ground.

So nearly [-] infantrymen from various Hejian families stopped in front of the trap area.

"Quick, get people up first." Bracken officer named Andrew commanded.

Earlier, in the conflict between Arthur and Raventree City, he was the one who led Hendry to lend five hundred soldiers.

This time, he was also one of the infantry commanders of the guest soldiers.

When the incident happened suddenly, the Hejian soldiers could only use long pole weapons to pull out the nobles and shield soldiers who fell into the pit.

Other pits are difficult to deal with, but Arthur's pit is quite easy.

The men and horses were piled up to two-thirds of the height of the pit, and it only took one long ax to pull the man on top out.

Some shield soldiers surrounded the pit, blocking the crossbow arrows shot from the front, and dozens of soldiers were responsible for pulling people up.

Patrick yelled the most, so he was pulled out by the ordinary cavalry in the pit, and then he was hugged by one below, and the two were pulled on the edge of the pit, and finally the young man from Haijiang City was pulled out.

"Arthur is at the bottom, get him out quickly, or it will be crushed," he yelled.

"Get Sir Arthur out first, the enemies have already surrounded him from both sides, and he needs to kill the blood." Andrew shouted.

Marco Piper also fell into this pit, and was found from the bottom. After being pulled out, he stepped on the horse's neck and shouted: "What are you waiting for, first pull Arthur out, and then a bunch of people come down Once the pit is filled, can’t we go out now?”

This proposal was a bit stupid, and Andrew, who was commanding above, ignored it.

After a few people in the pit communicated with the buried Arthur, they found his position, and after a while of effort, finally pulled him out from the fallen horse and people.

Then a few people built an adult ladder, and Arthur, who was holding a knife, climbed up.

Although he was a little dizzy from the fall, his abnormal physical fitness and recovery ability allowed him to quickly adjust to a normal state.

As soon as Pu came up, Arthur saw a large group of heavy cavalry surrounded from both sides, and a huge group of infantry completed the encirclement behind.

And the cavalry and infantry of one's own side are mixed together, pulling people, pulling people, standing randomly.

Patrick asked, "How are you, Arthur?"

"I can still fight!" Arthur shouted, holding up the iconic golden Guan knife:
"Andrew, you are in charge of the whole team. The rear team becomes the front team. Move north. Don't get confused."

It is not clear how many traps are left in the south, so the battlefield can only be placed in the north.

"Follow me." Arthur waved his arms and strode towards the enemy.

A large group of Hejian soldiers beside him was led by Arthur towards the oncoming soldiers of the major families in the western region. The two walls of people collided slowly, and then began to fight.

Although the soldiers of the Xijing family maintained a certain formation, because they came from more than a dozen families, their combat coordination was not the same as that of the Hejian infantry.

In this battlefield, there were [-] infantry and cavalry in total, and the troops from the Western Region were only slightly larger than the Hejian Army in terms of numbers, so the fight was intense.

But the golden Guan Dao flying from time to time can still catch the attention of the nobles in the western region.

"The people in the river made that Arthur, and the hole was too shallow." Adam said regretfully.

Count Saliot put his hands on his eyes and stared at the battlefield carefully, "He is really brave, he was thrown into the big pit, and he can fight when he comes out."

"We have to bring the crossbowmen in front of us, otherwise we won't be able to stop that killing god." Earl Roland Krich of the Crake Hall suggested.

Adam agreed.

So the crossbowmen and the sword and axe soldiers who protected the crossbowmen gathered together with this group of soldiers of the nobles in the western region.

"Sir Adam, we have to pay attention to another group of soldiers from the river." Earl Leo Radford looked at the hill behind him, "The Bracken soldiers huddled in the stone fence city also rushed out from the north gate. Receive reinforcements."

Adam was reminded and noticed a large group of soldiers wearing golden shields and red horse robes pouring out of the north gate of Shili City on the hill.

"It's just right, let's have a decisive battle. We just need to ensure that the inside of Shili City is intact."

He also has [-] Lannister infantry under him, just to deal with the river soldiers in the castle.

After the messenger galloped around, the lion soldiers also started, and all the soldiers outside Shili City were involved in the battle.

After 10 minutes of fighting, Arthur hacked the last enemy in front of him.

He looked around and found that there were only a few hundred soldiers of the Xijing family on the north side, and the lion cavalry on the east and west sides were also dragged into the quagmire by the Hejian infantry, and they were crowded together.

Of the more than 700 people brought in, there are only a thousand or a few hundred left, and they already have a numerical advantage in this battlefield.

On the hill to the south, the guards pouring out of Shili City fought extremely hard.

They were originally only half of the lion's soldiers, and their equipment was not as good as the rich and powerful Lannister family soldiers, so they couldn't hold on now.

Arthur noticed that the leader of the Bracken soldiers on the hill was his distant cousin Hendry.

Stretched left and right, playing very embarrassingly.

The last time Arthur came to Shili City to borrow troops, this person gave him the impression that he was a bitch, not generous.

But now he actually came out in person to lead troops to meet the reinforcements, which made Arthur's impression of him slightly change.

And on a flat ground on the west side of the hilly battlefield, dozens of flags and two to three hundred western border soldiers stood.

It seems that they are the commanders and nobles of this group of western border soldiers, as well as their personal soldiers.

To capture a man, the king must be captured first.

"Come here, some good hands, let's capture the group of western nobles."

Arthur let out a loud cry, and then walked quickly towards the west side.

Raymond, a dozen Darry City infantrymen, and dozens of Bracken infantrymen responded to Arthur's call and followed him.

In order to avoid the trap area, they turned around from the west side.

Just in time, Arthur cut another meal for the western infantry and cavalry he met on the road.

At least thirty or forty soldiers from the Western Region died on Arthur's way to capture and kill the nobles of the Western Region, which made the situation here clearer.

The group of river soldiers who followed Arthur were veterans, and they knew that the nobles in the western region had the earlier group of crossbowmen beside them, so they picked up large shields, one-handed round shields and other defensive equipment from the road, and formed a group Form a shield formation to protect Arthur, Raymond and other high-status Hejian nobles.

"Stop them!" screamed Earl Shallott.

The Hejian people's commando was only a few dozen paces away from them, which made this group of western nobles more nervous than ever.

The person who came here was the god of war who held an army of tens of thousands of people one by one outside the city of Golden Tooth. If he was jealous, he might not even abide by the tradition of not killing big nobles.

Right now, the soldiers of each family are still in a decisive battle, and it is not easy for them to leave their own soldiers and run away.

Commander Adam was very calm, and calmly asked the crossbowmen to fire a round of salvo first.

But most of the crossbow bolts were caught by the shield.

The charge of the River Commando was not affected.

So the axemen who protected the crossbowmen were sent to intercept them, and some of the soldiers of the nobles in the western region followed behind.

After close combat, the shield formation is no longer necessary.

The Hejian Commando and the Western Territory soldiers began to fight each other, and Arthur swung his Guan knife and began to chop people.

After a few minutes.

Count Leo Radford asked uncertainly: "Why don't we retreat."

His voice trembled slightly, and he could tell that he was a little scared.

Adam himself was bluffed by the invincible Arthur.

From a distance of dozens of steps, this group of nobles in the western region could already see that the blade of Arthur's golden sword had been slashed.

But even so, this person can still kill one person at a time, which shows how powerful he is.

The wounds of the soldiers from the Western Region who were slashed by his sword were often not as smooth as those cut with an ax and sword. Flesh and bone scum flew together, and the brain river and internal organs shards danced together.

They couldn't imagine how painful it would be when they died with such a chopping method.

"Don't worry, hold on for a while longer." Adam Marbrand looked at the battle outside Shili City and felt that his side still had an advantage.

There, there were only three or four out of ten of the defenders led by Hendry, and about fifteen hundred Lannister infantry remained.

"I don't believe it, this Arthur is physically strong enough to kill so many people in a row without getting tired at all." Sir Adam believed in his own judgment, "When the Lannister infantry outside Stone Hedge City are free, they will be able to consume as much energy as possible." It will take until this person surrenders."

"That's right." Earl Shallot agreed, "It's just that when he surrenders, he will be unhappy with most of us, after all, he has seen so much blood."

The owner of Yinshan City was telling the truth. A large number of family soldiers of the western nobles present were killed by Arthur.

This caused their family's strength to drop sharply. At this point in time when the long summer was about to end and the war had broken out, this would be a fatal blow.

After all, the full name of nobles is "armed nobles". Without full-time professional soldiers, the strength of the family can easily drop to a lower level.

But if this person really swears allegiance to their lord, Lord Tywin, they will have to hold their noses and admit it.

Two 10 minutes later.

There are only dozens of people left around the nobles of the western region, and most of the remaining people died in front of them.

"Run, run, run quickly." Earl Leo Radford urged Adam to give orders repeatedly.

"That's right, my soldiers are almost gone. If I don't slip away now, are we really waiting for him to kill us?" Count Shallot also agreed to leave.

"Commander, tell the soldiers to retreat to the east." Adam finally decided to retreat after looking at the battle situation on the north side and the Hejian God of War who was still in full swing.

There are only more than 200 lion cavalry left on the north side, and about 400 family soldiers from various families in the west.

Outside Shili City, a large group of Bracken soldiers rushed out. Although they were obviously recruits, they still dealt a heavy blow to the morale of the lion's infantry.

This group of western nobles and the few remaining soldiers all rode horses, so it was quite efficient to sneak around.

Before Arthur had time to react, there was no horse riding target in front of him.

There was no lone horse nearby for him to ride after his fleeing foe.

So Arthur rushed towards the Lannister soldiers who were too late to retreat from the fight outside the north gate of Stone Ledge City.

After another round of fighting, all the Western soldiers who could escape fled, and those who could not escape were either killed or knelt down and surrendered.

……

Stonewall Hall.

"Oops, I was almost crushed to death when I fell into the pit." Patrick sat on the chair and said to Arthur who was observing the big knife.

His idol is feeling sorry for the blade of the curler.

After four battles in Xizitan, Golden Tooth City, Heron Town, and Shili City, the blade of this Guandao made by the great craftsman from Kehor—Tub—has become blunt enough to be difficult to use.

Fortunately, the structure of the material is good, and it can take a while to sharpen the blade.

"You're not bad, but we're all wearing plate armor, which can't hit our ribs. The shield soldiers in the front row only wear chain mail, and it's enough to kill you if you fall. " Arthur said with some helplessness.

He didn't expect the enemy to dig into it, and he didn't send some scouts to investigate the situation on the battlefield.

This lesson of blood should be well remembered.

After the two chatted for a few more words, someone came in.

"It's yours to act as the castellan." Hendry walked ahead, dropped this sentence first, and then began to report on the cleaning situation of the battlefield.

The entire western border army left 150 dead bodies and 98 captives.

Of course, the captives here are all slightly injured or whole, and those who are seriously injured can be done with a knife.

Healing monks and bachelors are rare items, and it is impossible to heal the enemy.

As for the Hejian Army, 930 of the people brought by Arthur still have combat effectiveness, and the number of seriously injured is still counting.

The defenders of Shili City lost more than 700 veterans and more than 200 recruits.

In other words, the Hejian Army exchanged the death of more than 800 soldiers for the ascension of 150 Western invaders.

This does not include the loss of troops caused by the captives to the Western Frontier Army.

Although Arthur hacked hundreds of people to death, it was a great victory.

"It's better for you to continue to be the acting city lord, and I will go back to defend Harrenhal," Arthur said.

He had already learned from a certain captive that Duke Tywin led the elite troops of the Lion family to march towards the castle of the He'an family.

Although there were more than 4000 enemies, Arthur still had to accept the move.

Otherwise, the entire Hejian Eastern Front will collapse.

It's time for another battle.

"Uncle told you. It seems that he thinks that you are more reliable in defending the city, so I can only follow through." On the issue of acting as the city lord, Hendry was unrelenting.

He didn't want Arthur to take troops to Harrenhal.

In front of Tywin's elite lion family, this little guy is going to die.

It's better to stay and guard Shili City, at least this place can really be guarded.

"That's fine." Arthur didn't want to tangle with him, "Since I am the acting city lord, I order you to lead more than 500 recruits to guard Shili City, and I will take the rest."

Hendry was dumbfounded, and wanted to say something, but Arthur stopped him.

Adam Marbrand lost a big game, and he probably won't come to Shili City again in a short time. This place is already safe.

Tywin led his army into Willowwood City in the area around the lake, which was only five or six days away from Harrenhal, so he hurried back as soon as possible.
