back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 93

(I've been very busy at work recently, so I don't know if I still have time to code two chapters. But there will definitely be one update a day. If there are more recommended collections, maybe it will inspire me...)
After a little tidying up his army, Xiao Feng began to give the order to attack.It's just that the armor of these more than ten thousand Khitan soldiers was not neat, and many of them didn't even have boots on.What's more, he didn't even have time to take the weapon, and just copied a wooden stick.

On the other hand, the Forbidden Army's armor was distinctive, and it could be seen at a glance that they were the most elite Dashun soldiers.They walked in neat steps, and the three of them stepped forward together.The sword and shield hand is in front, and the crossbowman and spearman are behind.Or two Pu swordsmen in front and one Maza swordsman in the back.The horse army was ready to go, bypassing its friendly troops, and preparing to attack from the flank.

Xiao Feng could also see the intention of the imperial army, it was nothing more than cavalry charging for a while, and then let the infantry follow.They also often use this tactic, but they replace infantry with cavalry and attack in turn.

The camp was blazing with flames, and the light of the fire revealed the indomitable momentum of the thousands of forbidden soldiers, as well as the lingering fear and slight panic of the Khitan soldiers after the catastrophe.

Judging from the momentum, it must be the imperial army suppressing the Khitan soldiers.But in terms of numbers, the Khitan soldiers far outnumbered those of the Imperial Army.That's why Xiao Feng dared to lead more than [-] soldiers to fight against the imperial army which was almost ten times smaller than his own.If the numbers were equal, the Khitan soldiers whose morale had been severely hit would definitely be defeated.

Xiao Feng also knew that the morale could not be discouraged, if the morale was boosted a little at this moment, he had to charge forward, otherwise the tens of thousands of soldiers would be scattered.

After starting to charge, the Khitan soldiers seemed to have no discipline at all, and some soldiers were trampled on their feet by their own soldiers, screaming in pain.The tens of thousands of soldiers have no formation at all, they can only charge with strange screams, so as to cover up their inner panic.

On the other hand, the Forbidden Army was not in a hurry at all.The crossbow archer stringed and fired the crossbow arrows, while the rest of the soldiers continued to advance at a leisurely pace, shortening the distance between each other.It is not true to say that there is no panic on the side of the forbidden army, after all, most of the forbidden army are recruits who have never been on the battlefield.Under the stimulation of blood, some of them will become very excited, some will become overwhelmed, and some will become hot-headed... But when they hear the order, they subconsciously obey it. This can be called training the results.

In the dark night, even with the bright fire, there are still some places that are dark.Fortunately, the armors of the imperial guards are very bright, and they can see friendly troops in the dark without accidentally injuring them.But it is also easy to be attacked by Khitan soldiers because of this. This is an indisputable fact.

The entire Khitan army camp was in a panic, Xiao Feng felt blood dripping from his heart. More than 6 Khitan soldiers died at this moment, and some fled, and they were defeated.They were all terrified by the brave charging imperial army. When did the Khitan people suffer such a big loss?Xiao Feng clenched his teeth, he wanted to use this immediate battle to prove that the Khitans are not so easy to defeat.

At this moment, something unexpected happened.Not far away, there was a sudden rush of horseshoes, which was deafening.Both sides that were waiting for the battle stopped at the same time, they all thought that their own reinforcements had arrived.

It wasn't until the leading horse broke through the camp that the two sides realized that no one was riding these horses at all!

How is this going?

It turns out that the imperial guards who made a sneak attack had already touched the stables in the Khitan barracks.However, the Khitan people's emphasis on horses was beyond the imagination of the guards.Even in the case of a sudden attack, the most elite Khitan warriors are guarding the stables. They are brave enough to protect the stables from loss.

The imperial army gathered more than a thousand infantry, and nearly a dozen soldiers and horses attacked together, but they could not attack for a long time.Still a smart imperial guard, he tied the sackcloth he carried with him to the crossbow arrows, ignited it in the bonfire, and shot it into the forage.

Both forage and stables are extremely easy to catch fire.Not long after, the fire spread.Horses are also animals, as long as they are animals, there is no one that is not afraid of fire.Even though these were war horses, they had already turned a blind eye to the bonfire, but when the fire hit them, these war horses were still frightened.They began to tear away the reins, some even tore down the stables, and buried many Khitan soldiers.

A galloping horse is more frightening than a wild horse.The Forbidden Army of the instigator was also knocked down a lot, and was trampled into meat sauce by horseshoes.Although the imperial guards really wanted to win a horse of their own, it was a frightened horse, so how could it be so easy to control?

In this era, men love horses, just like later generations love cars, the reason is interlinked.There is no passionate man who does not desire to have a horse of his own.Seeing such a good opportunity slipping by, many people couldn't help sighing, and then devoted themselves to the great cause of arson.

And then things just happened like that.The Khitan soldiers who were caught off guard saw tens of thousands of fine horses running towards them, many of them had flames on their manes and tails.It's not that they don't know that this kind of horse is the most terrifying, many Khitan soldiers were so frightened that they immediately dropped their weapons, turned around and ran away, Xiao Feng couldn't even stop shouting.

"Ta Tata..."

The dull sound of horseshoes passed by, people turned their backs on their backs everywhere, many Khitan soldiers wanted to stop these horses, and the sound of "shouting" continued continuously.But where is the frightened horse so restrained?They didn't stop at all, they kept rushing forward.Wherever he went, no one dared to beat his edge.

Xiao Feng stared dumbfounded at the scene in front of him, the tens of thousands of soldiers who managed to gather were scattered by tens of thousands of frightened horses in the blink of an eye, and what was even more annoying was that these horses were the Khitan's own horses.

A hundred paces away, Xiao Feng rode a tall horse, unwillingly, he looked across the horse at the imperial guards and the blazing camp.He knew that if he lost the opportunity just now, this defeat was inevitable.

Xiao Feng ordered with difficulty: "Retreat..."

Xiao Feng's personal soldiers looked at Xiao Feng in astonishment, since he knew General Xiao, he never saw the word retreat in his mouth.He is almost the banner of the Royal Account Pro-Army, whether it is bow horse or martial arts, he is first-class.When charging and fighting, be brave.But today, Xiao Feng actually gave the order to retreat, the guards didn't react for a while.

After a moment of silence, the soldiers began to give orders to the other soldiers.Now the Khitan soldiers have become a mess, they don't know where the soldiers are, they don't know where the soldiers are, they fight on their own, it's a mess.

Such a result must have been massacred by the organized and premeditated Forbidden Army, even if there were only more than 1 Forbidden Army.

Xiao Feng gritted his teeth and shouted: "Khitan warriors, follow me! I am Xiao Feng!"

As soon as the name "Xiao Feng" was uttered, Khitan soldiers immediately followed behind him, Xiao Feng galloped his horse and shouted, after a while he gathered thousands of soldiers, and soon rushed out of the Khitan army camp that was in flames.

Wang Shao looked at Xiao Feng's disappearing figure, and praised: "A strong man breaks his wrist, this kind of courage is admirable. This person will definitely be my confidant's trouble in the future! Xiao Feng, Xiao Feng, you really can't be brave!"

At this moment Xiao Feng turned his head suddenly, and saw Wang Shao in the firelight, as if he wanted to remember his appearance firmly.After the two looked at each other for a few times, Xiao Feng turned his horse's head and led the remaining soldiers and horses, and left from the rear camp...
