"Captain Luo, you were sent by the Military Coordination Office to cooperate with my actions. Didn't your leader, Master Xuehu, tell you? All actions must be under my command! You have no say in the army's on-the-job command! I

Know when to act. We must achieve the greatest victory at the smallest cost. I only have these one thousand people and I cannot afford to lose. Do you understand?"

These thousand men and horses are Hong Asi's iron core. Of course, he will not send them into a melee easily. In his eyes, killing more saltmen and injuring them has nothing to do with the overall situation. As long as they can hold on, his good steel can be used on the blade.

.

Having said this, Luo Longyun lowered his head and said nothing when faced with the ferocious face of Hong Asi, who was blowing his beard and staring.

…

General Na Cheng, who rushed to the front line in person, finally couldn't stand it anymore. His soldiers attacked the earth city wall several times, but were driven back several times.

He gritted his teeth, hugged his waist, twisted his legs, and used all possible means, but he had only one purpose, to drive the officers and soldiers off the city wall.

With a dark face, he mounted his horse and rode to the back of the position. There were the reserves he had not used and the only three hundred knights in the guard camp.

The Chongming Navy is different from the Army in that they do not have a cavalry organization, and the only cavalry is the guard battalion.

The guard battalion in Nazan has nearly 600 people, half of which are cavalry, mainly used as ceremonial guards, while the garrison battalion placed at the naval base is all infantry.

Speaking of the three hundred cavalry in the guard camp, they are the lifeblood of Admiral Nazan, and they are also elites that he has spent a lot of money to build. Nacheng will not dare to use them easily until the critical moment.

But now it's really a life-and-death situation, and it still has to be used.

The three hundred cavalry received the order, gave a shout, knocked on the horse's belly, raised their sabers high, and rushed into the battlefield at lightning speed.

Throughout the ages, when comparing the combat effectiveness of cavalry and infantry on the battlefield, some military experts have given a ratio of ten to one, that is, the combat power and lethality produced by a cavalry charge during a charge is equivalent to that of ten infantry.

The power of a fan-shaped charge by three hundred cavalry is equivalent to that of three thousand infantry, and even far more powerful on flat ground.

"Charge, kill..."

"..."

Facing the fan-shaped charge of the cavalry, the saltmen, who had never received military training, were dumbfounded. No one knew how to resist, and they could only rely on the earth wall in front of them.

However, the low city wall could not block the impact of the war horse at all. The horse stepped hard with its front hooves, and most of it collapsed in an instant. The war horse jumped again, and the entire city wall collapsed. Once the war horse fell into the earth wall, the defense

The fortifications were immediately broken through, and the saltmen were defeated by horses and swords.

This time, uncles and nephews Na Cheng and Na Hui did not flinch. They rode their horses and charged into the battle in person. With the sabers in their hands, they easily chopped off the salt men in front of them and moved straight forward.

At this time, the previously organized resistance of the saltmen had completely collapsed. No one could care about anyone else and it was important to escape.

The entire battlefield fell into chaos, and the unprotected saltmen immediately became targets of massacre. They were easily chopped down and knocked down by the charging cavalry.

…

"Everyone mount their horses, divide into four lines and attack in frontal formation!" Hong Asi saw it clearly. He gave the order, and more than a thousand cavalry who were recharged immediately got on their horses and attacked quickly.

The so-called Yafeng Formation, also known as the Wild Goose Formation, is a type of cavalry charge. The four-way Yafeng Formation is like four steel knives inserted into the enemy's formation, aiming to penetrate the enemy's cavalry formation and defeat the enemy.

Just when Na Cheng and Na Hui's army cavalry were getting ready to kill, a rumbling sound suddenly sounded from behind the army, like thunder, and the earth shook with it.

And with the roar coming from far to near, there was dust flying all over the sky, completely covering the sky and the sun.

Cheng's heart skipped a beat, knowing that this was a sign that thousands of cavalry would attack.

"Could it be that the army came back from the west of Shanghai and sent reinforcements?" he muttered.

"It's impossible, General. All the cavalry of the Chongming Navy are here. Even if the military gate returns, he will be surrounded by more than 20 cavalry from the Guards. How can there be thousands of cavalry?" Na Hui reined in his horse and turned around.

replied.

"Yeah...Oh no, that's not good..." The secret was revealed in one sentence.

Just when Cheng was doubtful, he turned his horse and looked up. He couldn't help but feel frightened, and his whole body froze on the horse.

This is a team with messy clothes and armor, and it is completely unclear who they are, but they are a cavalry of more than a thousand people, and they are also well-trained, charging forward in a sharp formation.

Where did Chongming, and even Shanghai as a whole, come from such a powerful cavalry?

Seeing them cutting into his own ranks like chopping melons and vegetables, and scattering the official cavalry and infantry at once, Na Cheng was completely stunned.

"Hong Bantian is here, Brother Luo is really back!" Ma Desan, who was in the rout, saw it first and shouted loudly.

He was covered in blood and had been injured in many places, but he still waved the spear in his hand vigorously to resist the enemy's attack.

With a neat battle formation, rumbling horse hooves, and thundering shouts of death, Hong Asi killed Cheng's soldiers in all directions with just one charge, and was completely defeated.

Hong Asi's thousand elites are all organized cavalry troops. They have been riding horses in the mountains for a long time, fighting life and death with other mountain bandits and horse thieves. Soldiers who used to be bandits are now regular mining area security forces, riding horses.

Of course it was a great battle, but how could such a weak Chongming Navy be seen?

They ran rampant, using their knives to chop melons and vegetables, taking away a life every time. In an instant, they killed the Chongming army to pieces.

"Hong Bantian is really here. Brother Luo kept his promise and he is here too!" Yan Ding, who survived, cried with joy and shouted with all his strength.

"Hong Bantian? Who is Hong Bantian?"

That process was hazy, and he fled with the defeated troops in fear. At this time, he had not yet come to his senses. From a great victory to an instant defeat, the taste of the gap was like sleepwalking, and he was not noticed by outsiders.

Know.

There was a sudden sound of horse hooves behind them. When the soldiers looked back, they couldn't help but be stunned. A fierce-looking man, brandishing a golden-backed machete in his hand, was leading a group of cavalry, chasing after them like the wind.

"General, run!" the soldiers shouted loudly.

But how could their horses, which had not been seen in battle for a long time, and their riding skills compare with the men and horses selected by Hong Asi? They were overtaken in a moment.

Hong Asi had been a bandit for decades. His golden-backed machete was older than his son. Every time he wielded the sword, blood flowed out. He chopped off the officers and soldiers one by one like watermelons.

Poor Cheng, although his horse was fat and fat, it could not outrun Hong Asi's white colt.

"Where are you going to run away!" He shouted, and the golden-backed machete slashed out diagonally.

Poor general Cheng Cheng was cut off from the right shoulder by Hong Asi's sword, and his whole body was immediately split into two halves. Cheng died without even humming.

Of the more than a thousand officers and soldiers, very few could escape their pursuers.
