C244 Intervention to pacify the chaos of phoenix and yang (final)
After the messenger had sent the order through the flag language, almost all the soldiers stopped their attacks and waited for the next order to be sent out.
"Do you want to use your opponent's cavalry to block their attacks with spears?" Third Uncle did not understand as he heard his nephew's order.
Of course, long range archers were also very important, but if they met a heavy cavalry soldier, the damage done by the archers to the enemy would not be much. In fact, it could even be described as minuscule.
The Lance Infantry soldiers had a great advantage over the cavalry. As long as their lances pierced the neck or legs of the horses, they would be able to dismount the riders with their lances. Usually, after a battle, the casualties between these two branches would be almost equal. However, if the cavalry soldiers were to fight against other units, they would cause a large number of casualties. This point was the proof of the spear infantrymen's use in war.
But at this moment, the lance soldiers had been used by Gongsun Ze Tian to deal with a group of martial artists who were charging towards him. This inevitably made Situ Qingyun curious, but at the same time, he was also faintly looking forward to see if the nephew in front of him would bring him a fresh fight.
Gongsun Ze Tian laughed without saying a word, while Leng Nuohan had been monitoring the situation in the Blood Illusion Valley. Upon hearing that Gongsun Ze Tian had said that they were going to close soon, he became interested and ran over to Gongsun Ze Tian's side. He stuck his head out to look at the battle below.
The Head Elder gathered all the disciples, and looking down from the top, they were like a piece of cake, quickly rushing towards the direction where Patriarch Seven was charging.
Fifty meters ?
35 meters ?
Twenty meters ?
Fifteen meters ?
The Sword League's group was getting closer and closer to the military formation. If they were city guards, they would have been crushed by the aggressive aura coming from the Sword League.
He was already 10 meters away. At this moment, Gongsun Ztian opened his mouth and said, "Give the order, throw the spear one step at a time! A draw! "
The soldier who received the order threw the spear out without hesitation. Although they had never fought in such a way before, and weapons were like second life to every warrior, hugging their weapons and eating, drinking and sleeping together, and throwing weapons that regarded themselves as second lives like this, these soldiers still held some doubts in their hearts about this order. But orders were like mountains, their duty was to obey!
What was the difference between elite and ordinary soldiers? The biggest difference was discipline. Elite soldiers would never question their superiors' orders. Even if their orders were to send them to their deaths, they would never frown. Ordinary soldiers, on the other hand, would immediately flee in order to preserve their lives.
The spear cut across the sky, and with a tremble of the heavy spear shaft, it whistled past with a force that was a hundred times stronger than an arrow, instantly arriving in front of Sword League, clashing directly with Sword League's group who were charging with their eyes closed.
A thrown spear and a flying arrow were two completely different things. The arrow was light, tricky, and fast. But the spear was different. Its body was heavy and its inertia was extremely great. Although its range was not far and its speed was average, its lethality was absolutely amazing.
Even though they were all made of stone and were extremely hard, they could not withstand the powerful throw of the spear from ten meters away. The moment the spear touched the stone, they could only see that rocks were flying everywhere, and the ones holding the stone rushed up ahead were pushed back by the resistance of the spear.
At the very least, it proved that it was able to stop a portion of the lance's throw attack. But before the Sword League could rejoice, lances were thrown one after another. Some of them continued to be used on the stones used as shields, causing the momentum of Sword League's charge to disappear.
As for the spears thrown from other directions, all of them had decreased in strength before they reached the group of Sword League, causing them to fall down, but the falling spears seemed to have been calculated, and all shot towards the legs of the group of Sword League.
The people of Sword League were focused on protecting the vital points on their upper body, completely disregarding the exposure of their legs. Because of the spear's attack, miserable howls continuously sounded out, and due to the spear's inertia, many people who were running lost their balance, and could no longer stand, falling down one after another.
Furthermore, there were a lot of people standing in the Sword League. As soon as one person fell, it would have the effect of a 'dominoes', causing the others to be unable to stand up anymore, and they all fell to the ground one after another. If one fell, all of them would suffer. They were like a stack of arhats, you under, I under, and in the end those people holding the stone block, stone pillar, tightly hold those big pieces of stone and fall down, completely crushing those people who couldn't stand up straight and making them unconscious for a moment.
"Pass the order!" We'll catch them all in one fell swoop! " When Gongsun Ze Tian saw this, he also shook his head towards the Sword League and the rest. They did not even give Gongsun Ze Tian a single shred of pleasant surprise.
Following the order from the messenger, the closest formation suddenly split open, opening up a path for the cavalry army to pass through. The cavalry behind the formation quickly went forward, rushing towards Sword League's group.
You push me, I push you, all of you want to, but you are pressing me down, and I am holding you down. No one can stand up, and all they can do is watch helplessly as the cavalrymen closed in on them.
Following that was a huge net that covered the entire sky and the ground, wrapping all the Sword League people within it. They were like turtles in a jar. Although there were people who wanted to use their swords and sabers to cut open the net, they found out that they couldn't break through the net no matter what. Secondly, they were pressed down so hard that it was impossible to force their way through.
But it was not over yet. The phalanxes started to move again, and the armoured heavy infantry in the front row started to shrink their encirclement even further, even using their gigantic shields to firmly hold down the Sword League people in the net.
Only now did Situ Qingyun seem to wake up from a dream. Other than sighing at his nephew's brilliant fighting skills, Situ Qingyun was also deeply impressed by his nephew's brilliant commanding skills. In the entire battle, in the time it took to boil a kettle of tea, not only did he not even injure a single person, he had even made his opponent lose greatly and become a captive. Even if he were to personally lead the battle, it would be extremely difficult for him to achieve such an effect.
Seeing that the battle was completely over, Gongsun Ze Tian became dispirited and continued to sit on the wheelchair, enjoying Leng Nuohan's care and care.
"Hey, Ol 'Three, how did you know about this lance throw? If it was used on the battlefield, you would be a cavalry devil!" Also, your ability to command has left me in awe. How could a child five years old be able to do that? If I didn't watch you grow up, I would have thought that you had been possessed by a thousand-year old demon! " Situ Qingyun joked as he spoke to Gongsun Ze Tian. At the same time, he was also very happy that he could learn such a novel tactic. It could even be said that he was extremely excited.
"How can it be as exaggerated as Third Uncle says? This kind of battle can only be considered warm-up and is also simple to deal with. Fighting with people with well-developed limbs is far too much of a lack of sense of accomplishment!" Gongsun Zaitian was not courteous either. Although what he said was the truth, in the ears of others, it felt awkward no matter how they listened to it. He was too arrogant and conceited.
"Oh, I was just praising you and now you're boasting about yourself!" Situ Qingyun replied with a smile.
"It's not that our army is too strong, it's that our enemies are too useless!" Oh right, Third Uncle, I have something that I need to trouble you with! " Gongsun Ztian replied with a smile and then changed the topic.
"What is it?" Situ Qingyun stared at the battle results below and casually asked.
I know a person, he has a proper character, he is also a righteous person, and can be considered as someone who your nephew sees. I hope that Third Uncle can transfer him to the Northern Army and keep him under your watch. Gongsun Ze Tian slowly said.
"Oh? And the people you have your eyes on? Where is he? I want to see it with my own eyes before making a decision! " Hearing that, Situ Qingyun could not care less about the follow-up battles anymore, he turned to Gongsun Ze Tian Ze and asked.
He will not disappoint you, he is currently in Fengyang City, he is the deputy general of the Fengyang City's Guard Army, he was suspended from his post a few days ago because of a small matter, and is currently idle around the house. His name is Cheng Zhipeng, Third Uncle wants to know where he is, I believe you have a plan! Gongsun Ze Tian introduced Situ Qingyun.
As long as I've seen him, if he's truly as you say, I'll definitely help you with this favor. It's rare for you, nephew, to beg me once; However, I have previously declared that if he does not have any talent, then I, Third Uncle, will not be able to help him. After all, the northern armies do not support idle people. " Situ Qingyun said with his' crafty 'words. He had earned sufficient face.
"Nephew, wait for my good news! "Nuhan, let's go back first!" Gongsun Ztian smiled faintly and did not say much. He believed that his Third Uncle would like that person called Cheng Zhipeng and that he would return the favour.
"En!" Finished, Leng Nuohan ordered a few of her followers to carry Gongsun Ze Tian Lou.
"Sigh, wait a minute. There's still one more place that we haven't settled yet. How come you guys just left?" Seeing that his nephew was going to escape, how could Situ Qingyun agree? He wanted to continue watching his nephew command the battle. That was simply a pleasure.
Hehe, Third Uncle, don't worry, I think that Blood Illusion Valley's instrument of surrender is already on the road. It might not be long before Third Uncle can see it! Gongsun Ztian gestured for his followers to wait a moment, then turned his head to Third Uncle and said.
"Really? They surrendered just like that? " Situ Qingyun was still a little doubtful, and asked suspiciously.
Forget about Situ Qingyun, even the other people present could not understand this matter. One had to know that the top powers in Honglong Empire cared a lot about face, so how could they do something like falling before the battle? Especially since their opponents were soldiers with ordinary martial skills. Were they not afraid of losing face? One must know that their way of doing things was, "They would rather throw away their lives than lose their face!" Once this was done, the martial arts world would lose all face.
