Riding and Slashing

Chapter 76 Attack, meet the enemy

Looking at the map, Li Ang began to arrange defenses.

"Anson, take all the militiamen to the entrance of the village to set up defenses. You should be familiar with the battle formation in the past few months. Make good use of all the buildings - you led people to repair them, and you know how to use them!"

"Yes sir!"

Anson is no longer the weak chicken who could only hide behind Sharama.

Although his martial arts still didn't make much progress, he was no longer unfamiliar with the battlefield after experiencing bloody battles in the border camp and seeing great battles in the Sava River Fort.

"Leslie, pull all the carriages to the entrance of the village to set up a carriage formation, and set up three carriage formations."

"Good sir! But what is our tactic?" Leslie asked.

Every caravan would use a car formation to resist the bandits, and setting up a car formation was indeed something Leslie was good at, but she didn't know how Li Ang planned for her and Anson to fight against the enemy.

"Your tactic is to guard the entrance of the village, and shoot arrows when you see the enemy! When the enemy gets in, burn the carriage and retreat, retreat to the back of a chariot formation and continue to shoot arrows!"

"that's it?"

"that's it!"

Leslie sighed, this tactic is indeed simple and easy to understand, but isn't it a little too simple?
Li Ang, of course, deliberately simplified his tactics. He didn't have a reliable commander under him, and if he explained it too complicatedly, it would affect his performance.Besides, it is not certain whether this tactic will be useful or not.

Klose, the charge captain, has rich experience, but he can only charge into battle, and his brain is full of muscles.

"Klose! Bring the stormtroopers and follow me." Li Ang put the map in his pocket.

"My lord, what is our plan?"

Klose was a little worried, the gap in numbers was too great.

"The two of us lead other people to take the initiative to attack! Let's kill dozens of enemies first to see what happens!" Li Ang put on the horse armor for Alice, and said lightly while tying the belt.

"what?"

Klose was a little confused, the others, that is forty people?Klose will still be able to count on this...

Forty people actively attacking thousands of people?Has the lord become a little bloated after getting rich?
"Brothers, come with me!"

The lord put on his helmet, and his face was covered by a hideous giant helmet—this was newly purchased, and the original helmet was given to Raphael.

The body is no longer chain armor, but a set of half body armor focused on vital protection, which belongs to light plate armor.

On one side were the Mettenheim stormtroopers.

Behind them were thirty heavily armed archers.

Of course Li Ang will take the initiative to attack—since those gangsters have chased Lisa Dilan all the way, they must be equally exhausted now, and they may still be out of touch.

It's a pity that there are no cavalry in hand...

If there is a cavalry team of dozens of people, Li Ang will even bring out all the troops to meet it.

With Samer leading the way, they saw the gangsters from a distance within half an hour of leaving the village.

The appearance of 900 people is less than what Lisa Dilan said, and it is estimated that some people have fallen behind.

Just as Li Ang expected, these enemies chased for tens of miles all the way, obviously extremely tired, and they were probably planning to rest by the river.

Most of the bandits sat on the ground by the river, but they did not set up camp. They were obviously resting temporarily, probably waiting for those who left behind, and they would act again soon.

This group of gangsters is not an army at all-the equipment ranges from cloth and leather to iron, all kinds, sitting there in a mess.

It may be that they are really too tired, they didn't even send scouts, and there was no vigilance around them - of course, it may be that there are too many people on their own, and they feel that there is no need to be vigilant.

"A mob is useless except for being numerous."

Li Ang spied carefully in the nearby woods and gave his evaluation.

Klose nodded at the side. When he saw these bandits, he understood the reason why the lord wanted to take the initiative to attack-this group of bandits didn't seem to be able to arrange their physical strength reasonably.

In fact, there are still some elites on the enemy side. There are seven or eight riders. They look like some knights and their equipment is fairly good.

They should be the ones who let the gangsters stop here to rest.

They were riding around to greet those bandits, and their curses could be heard from a distance. It seemed that this group of rabble was not easy to control.

In addition, there were a hundred or so neat-looking infantry sitting alone on the side. These should be elite soldiers, not staying with the large group of bandits.

"Klose, stay in ambush here and don't move. I'll seduce you. You can do it after they chase in..."

Li Ang confessed, and led the archers quietly out of the woods, and moved closer to the river.

"Let go!" Li Ang led the archers to secretly gather near the group of bandits, raised his arms high and threw a wave of feathered arrows into the group of bandits, making a miserable howl.

Afterwards, the lord turned around and ran away with thirty archers.

The archers' archery skills were not very good, but without warning, the bandits who were resting by the river were still knocked down by a dozen or so.

Several knights shouted and cursed loudly, and began to give orders.

The group of elite infantrymen were the first to react. They spotted Li Ang, a small group of dozens of people, and immediately stood up, raising their shields and approaching in unison.

But the gangsters were very unrestrained, they rushed over howling.

Li Ang looked back and saw two knights chasing after him, so he raised his eagle bow and turned around with an arrow.

Reflexive riding and shooting, the fighting style of the grassland people.

The arrow was more than a hundred meters away, but the arrow still accurately shot into a knight's forehead, and the knight turned over and fell off his horse with a bang.

The lord grinned—it was pure luck, his cavalry and archery skills had not yet reached the level of quick-firing finger strikes, and he did not expect to be able to hit the head, but if he could hit the knight, he was considered super-level played out.

But the other knight was obviously frightened by the terrifying long-distance headshot. He slowed down and turned around to say hello, so a group of gangsters rushed up and started chasing him. Arrows also started to shoot at Li Ang. emission.

The distance was too far, and Li Ang and his men kept running back and forth. The wooden bows in the hands of the gangsters could hardly do any damage to the well-armored heavy archers. Thirty archers ran into the woods in a hurry.

Although "no entry into the forest" is the experience of the rivers and lakes that should be followed most of the time, but the gangsters are so numerous that they naturally don't care about a small forest at the moment, and the group quickly shouted and followed rushed in.

And Li Ang himself didn't go into the woods, he rode his horse around the woods, shooting an arrow from time to time - he was single-handedly luring the heavy infantry.

Seeing this situation, the knight wisely restrained the infantry from chasing Li Ang, but stood guard outside the woods.

This is what an army should look like, and it can't be messed up even if it is harassed. This knight seems to be an experienced warrior.

Li Ang shot an arrow at him, but was blocked by the knight with a shield, and then several crossbow arrows from the infantry lineup shot towards Li Ang.

This kind of shooting was not cost-effective, so the lord had no choice but to ride Alice around the woods and disappeared in front of these people.

However, although the leading knight was very alert, the gangsters suffered a disadvantage, and it seemed that they were not easy to restrain. A large group of people shouted and rushed into the woods, expressing that they would smash the dead body into pieces...

However, not long after they entered the woods, a group of strong men popped out from behind those big trees, followed by a large array of neat sword lights!
The dappled sunlight in the woods made a dozen or so strong figures look black, and the big swords in their hands also flickered, making it difficult to parry the powerful surprise attack.

After a few rounds of sword light, no less than 40 bandits turned into more than [-] and fell down in the woods, screaming and screaming.

"go!"
