Chapter 264 Head-on Conflict
Just when Mu Yi was wondering if the barge horse tasted delicious, Li Jue and others on the other side were nibbling dry food.

"His grandma's resting person still lingers!"

Li Que angrily took a bite of the horse meat in his hand, and then gnawed two mouthfuls of dry food viciously, treating it as a sign of the Parthian army to vent his anger.

Anxi's army is like a pack of wolves, constantly harassing them, as if trying to drag them down.

If it was a frontal battle, they might not be afraid of Anxi, but because Anxi had more manpower and harassed them in batches, they really couldn't bear it.

They didn't know what An An's plan was, but Li Que and the others knew very well that if they continued like this, they might be harassed to death.

Fortunately, they were elite enough. Xu Rong put them in the rear and replaced them with more ordinary legions. The morale of the army might have been shattered.

"General, our army found the heavy infantry regiment of Xi'an about thirty miles behind, equipped with two thousand rangers and about seven thousand archers." The Qiang scouts ran back to feed the soldiers who were eating dry food. Li Juehui reports.

"His grandma's are these undead guards again!"

Hearing this, Li Jue gnawed two mouthfuls of dry food fiercely, and then put it away. Thirty miles had already entered the warning range. Although the heavy infantry was slower, the heavy infantry at the Guards level would not be suppressed by the clouds. Under normal circumstances, it can't be that slow.

Although they have not officially fought against each other, they have only met once, but Li Que is very sure that the other party is a difficult enemy.

After being harassed for several days, Li Que became a bit violent. Now they couldn't tell how many peaceful enemies were behind them.

The Qiang people's reconnaissance cavalry did not dare to go too far. Anxi's light cavalry regiment was like a big net, directly cutting off Li Que's channels to explore the outside world.

Without the ability to expand the reconnaissance range, you never know when a wave of enemies will suddenly appear. A range of fifty miles is not too far for the cavalry.

"Continue the investigation." Li Jue glanced at the soldiers behind him, turned back and said calmly, "Be prepared, ready to fight at any time!"

"Do we really need to contend with the Immortal Guards?" Ganassis's Guards Commander asked helplessly.

As a Roman general who had been at war with Parthia for many years, he knew very well what kind of big trouble Parthia's immortal guards were.

Although Anxi's troop tree is full of light cavalry, horse archers, and archers, it does not mean that Anxi has not selected heavy infantry.

After all, there are a large number of organic archers, so it is natural that the escort corps must form an insurmountable barrier in order to maximize the effectiveness of the organic archers.

The most outstanding among them is the Immortal Guards, the ace legion of the Esvandel family.

If there is such a legion in Ctesiphon, it is absolutely impossible for Ganassis and the others to threaten the safety of the royal city.

This legion is one of the few powerful legions in Parthia that can compete with the Rose Legion of Thirteen Eagles without losing.

Although Garth has never fought head-on with the Undead Guards, he still knows the Thirteen Eagle Flag very well. The Undead Guards are definitely the most troublesome heavy infantry regiment.

Although the Xiliang cavalry are very strong, it is not that easy to crush a heavy infantry that focuses on survival. Once they are held back by the opponent, they will have to pay a price if they want to leave.

Moreover, the two military spirit legions are not by their side at all now, and they do not have the capital to crush each other.

"I've had enough. If I don't teach them a lesson, I really think the Xiliang cavalry are made of mud!" Li Gu's eyes were on fire.

Of course he knew that entangled with the undead guards at this time would most likely attract the Parthian troops, but he had had enough.

They, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, were invincible on the plains, so why were they being chased around by a bunch of rubbish?

Gars looked at the fire in Li Que's eyes and cast his expectant gaze on the others, hoping that they could stop Li Que's unrealistic order.

However, Garth's heart gradually sank to the bottom. He found that the people around him had no intention of stopping Li Que. Instead, they all nodded in agreement.

"Yes, we should have done this a long time ago. Kill them hard and let them know how powerful we are!" Fan Chou looked violent. Like Li Que, he was already fed up with An An's shameless harassment tactics.

The opponent would rotate different Guards regiments to harass them every day, just like a cat playing with a mouse. Fan Chou had long been fed up with this feeling of being manipulated. When had their Xiliang cavalry ever experienced this? gas.

The biggest advantage of the cavalry on the plains is mobility. They can start a war at will and withdraw from the war at will. Even if they do nothing, as long as they hang behind the enemy infantry, it is enough to put great pressure on the infantry. .

However, now that the roles have been reversed, it is actually the infantry hanging behind them, putting pressure on them. This role change simply makes everyone in the Xiliang Cavalry have a ball of fire in their stomachs.

The Xiliang cavalry once prided themselves on being the best cavalry in the world. Now how could they endure this almost naked humiliation?

Zhang Ji was still a little hesitant. He had some brains. It was more or less unreasonable to send troops in anger.

The most important thing is that Feixiong and Tumu, the two major military souls, are not here. It would be too difficult for the Xiliang Iron Cavalry of the Imperial Guards led by them to defeat the opponent.

"Report, the enemy's heavy infantry is approaching! It is found that the enemy's light cavalry regiment is also approaching!"

"Okay, okay! If you are looking for death, then you will satisfy them!" Zhang Ji's anger grew when he heard this.

They were really being treated as soft persimmons. When the other party changed from their normal behavior, they had obviously discovered the fact that the Army Soul Legion was no longer there.

That's why they went against the norm and no longer focused on harassment, but chose to launch an encirclement offensive directly towards them.

Now they couldn't leave even if they wanted to. The Xiliang Iron Cavalry itself was famous for its short legs. It was usually fine with the help of Yun Qi. Once entangled with the enemy's Yun Qi, the undead guards could just circle around and block them directly. in front of them.

It sounds very deadly, but with a heavy infantry regiment and a light cavalry regiment, trying to capture their Xiliang cavalry is simply courting death.

"Everyone mount up and prepare to fight!"

Guo Bang immediately put away the rations and roared. All the iron knight soldiers immediately put away the rations, picked up their weapons, got on their horses, and waited for the next order.

"Find those heavy infantry and crush them!" Li Que roared angrily. He couldn't bear it anymore, so there was no need to bear it anymore.Instead of running around for dozens of miles only to be blocked and lose your morale, it is better to take the initiative and kill the opponent directly.

Anyway, the core point is the immortal guard on the opposite side. As long as the opponent is killed, the remaining light cavalry and archers will pose zero threat to them. Even if they are entangled by then, there is nothing to fear.

Facing a group of monsters that can't penetrate the defense, who's morale will drop drastically at that time?

When Castor received the news from Amestra, the new commander of the Guards Cavalry, that the Xiliang Cavalry was charging towards him, he looked much uglier.

In fact, the Esvan der Yar family didn't really want to stop this shit. Their family's strength is not enough, and it's nonsense to want to be in the top position.

If someone really slipped away, the Esfander Yar family would be very passive. Things like public opinion can sometimes be very fatal.

One of the reasons why Li Que and the others were confused, and the reason for the constant rotation in Anxi, was actually that the major families in Anxi were wrestling with each other.

The ones who want to kill Li Que and the others the most at the moment are the royal family, the Sullun family, and Amestra, the guy who was elected to succeed Tilitaya and become the new commander of the Guards.

The biggest culprit that prompted Li Que and the others to turn back was Amestella. He knew that the nobles in Anxi had ulterior motives, so he simply led the wolf into the house and let Li Que take the initiative to attack, forcing the seven nobles in Anxi to fight.

Although he was unhappy with the fact that he was implicated by Amestra and had to fight Li Que and the others head-on, at this time, he could only suppress his dissatisfaction and honestly join forces with Amestra to deal with the Xiliang cavalry.

"Archers shoot arrows! Guards form a formation to respond!" Castor immediately stopped hesitating and directly ordered the archers behind him to scatter arrows. The enemy had already rushed to his face. If he didn't make a decision at this time, I'm afraid The morale of the military is shaken.

"Thankfully I didn't ask Yupal to come this time, otherwise it would have been really bad!" Castor was extremely happy.

To be honest, Yupal was actually stronger than him and more suitable to lead the immortal guards. However, this operation could not be settled by war alone, so he was asked to come here as a more mature and prudent person.

A large number of Parthian elite archers started shooting crazily. The Parthian archers, known for their speed, shot tens of thousands of arrows the moment they raised their bows.

Although the system was absorbed by Rome, compared with the two, the original version of Parthia is superior.

Unfortunately, in addition to archers, Rome also had a large number of heavy infantry, so Rome easily overthrew Parthia through piracy.

The terrifying efficiency of the Anxi archers instantly reminded Li Jue of the bloody battle with the Roman army, with overwhelming arrows falling on their heads.

And compared to the last time, the arrow rain this time was more powerful.

Li Jue and his leading heavy cavalry were stationed a mile away. Guo Bang and Fan Chou came out from behind Li Jue in unison and circled around Xi'an's military formation without launching an attack.

After Guo Bang and Fan Chou fought their way out, they did not approach quickly. Instead, they circled the undead guards at a slightly faster speed than before, looking for flaws.

The three of them were like three swimming fish, and they began to circle around the square formation composed of the undead guards.

Zhang Ji, on the other hand, reined in his horse and used his own memory to remember every move of An Xi, hoping to find flaws in their movements as much as possible.

The immortal guards did not do anything drastic in response to the Xiliang cavalry's surrounding behavior, they just silently defended themselves.

They formed a simple circular formation, surrounding the archer legion. The resting archers also gave up continuous shooting. Their attacks were just a tickle for the Xiliang cavalry. Unless they were suppressed by frontal arrow rain, other Moments mean nothing.

The simple circular formation was impregnable under the maintenance of the immortal guards. Li Que and the three of them advanced and retreated, and recently they had even made a charge.

Until they were squeezed to sixty steps, a dangerous distance that could be charged with just one breath, countless arrows suddenly erupted from the peaceful military formation, and Li Que and the three retreated like a tide.

"Trouble, it's a tough one!" Li Que's face was a little solemn. The opponent was stronger than Ganassis's Guards and was definitely the top heavy infantry regiment.

Guo Bang and Fan Chou also had serious expressions on their faces. The strength of their opponents was beyond imagination, but they were not afraid. They were just troubled by how to destroy their opponents.

"Kill!" Zhang Ji roared, and the three of them, Li Que, immediately attacked the Immortal Guard from their respective positions without any hesitation.

The distance between the three fronts almost formed an equilateral triangle, rushing towards the Parthian defense line surrounded in the center.

This was the signal they had agreed with Zhang Ji. When Zhang Ji discovered a flaw, he would immediately send out a signal, and all they had to do was charge.

"Everyone enters the life memory state. Teams No. 12, [-], and No. [-] form a frontal defense formation, block with tower shields, and be sure to block the frontal cavalry charge!"

Castor's eyes were cold. He only had a moment to mobilize his soldiers, but the opponent caught him. This made him even more fearful of the enemy.

Although the flaw was caught due to a momentary mistake, to Castor it was just a small flaw that was insignificant.

Originally, I just wanted to give the soldiers a layer of attack power blessing, but now I can only cancel it. Over and over, I lost [-]% of the defense blessing.

However, Castor has absolute confidence in the Immortal Guards. This is the elite that their family has worked hard to build, and it is the absolute wall of the Parthian Empire.

They were the last line of defense to protect the country before Anxi fell out - the immortal guards and the heavy cavalry. If they can stop it, they absolutely can!
Following Castor's order, the fifteen centurions in the direction of Li Que's attack formed a block defense line almost instantly, forming a continuous network of defense line, with each person's back covered by large shields. Live, densely packed to form a long line of defense like a spring.

At the same time, all the imperial guards suddenly entered their peak period from their previous ordinary postures.

This is the guarantee of the "immortality" of the immortal guards. Their first talent is defensive blessing, and their second talent is life imprint.

Through the imprint of life, the various qualities of the body are directly restored to the peak in the records. If they are not injured at their peak, they will continue to remain uninjured. Any attack that cannot destroy them immediately will be destroyed at high speed. heal.

This is comparable to the self-healing ability that is born after the inner energy leaves the body and fully renders itself. Although this method will greatly deplete the spirit of the soldiers and consume a lot of cloud energy, when they take effect, it is enough to make everyone feel troublesome.

This kind of legion can truly show its immortal side when forming a formation to face the enemy.

 The author is sick, not dead. Some book friends should not be too ridiculous. It is obvious that it is updated every day, but why have people started to offer incense to me?
