7832 Chapter 7830-

Among the weapons and equipment that Fei daqiang had brought over this time, there were 10000 of the simplified armor-piercing crossbows.

It was a pity that there were less than 20000 people in the garrison of the king’s city, and they could not use all of them. Otherwise, they could really launch a volley of 10000 crossbows.

In addition to the two-man-operated simplified armor-piercing crossbows, there were also 300 large armor-piercing crossbows.

The crossbow bolts alone were more than four meters long and about twenty centimeters in diameter. If they were used to attack a city, they could easily penetrate the city wall. If there were enough of them, it would not be a problem to blow down the city wall.

It was a pity that this kind of killing weapon was not suitable for mobile battles. They could not trick the team from the black charm Commandery this time, so they could only find another opportunity.

“Military counselor, your plan is very good! We’ll act according to the plan!”

Liu Ziyu thought for a moment and did not find any problems with it. He immediately made a decision.”Commander Ling, take the cavalrymen and flank the back. Find an opportunity to attack the black charm Commandery! Once the other party was defeated, they would immediately pursue and kill them. They could not let them off easily! This time, we’re going to win!”

“Yes, sir!”

Ling Hanxue cupped her fists and accepted the order.

On the surface, the strategy this time was similar to the previous one, but the role of the cavalry was somewhat different.

By the time Ling Hanxue made her appearance, the battle would have already been set in stone. She would be in charge of taking the heads of the cavalry!

“Commander Li, you’re in charge of commanding the main force this time. Grasp the appropriate distance and attack the enemy before they do. You must pay attention to this. You can’t do it too early or too late!”

If they acted too early, the power of the armor-piercing crossbow could not be fully exerted. The commander would alert the enemy and give the team of the black magic Commandery time to prepare.

Not to mention that if they acted too late, the black charm Commandery would strike first and gain the upper hand. What was the point of fighting then?

After the discussion, everyone began to make preparations. The Army left the city and got into formation.

When the black charm Commandery saw Liu Ziyu leading the Army out of the city, they were overjoyed.

They had the advantage in equipment, but they weren’t good at sieging cities, and they didn’t have as many troops as the people in the city.

In order to avoid too many casualties and benefit copper Commandery, they had always wanted to send the Army of Hongshang Commandery out of the city to fight.

Now that they had gotten what they wanted, the team from the heimei Commandery cooperated and retreated a few miles to make space for the Hongshang Commandery. They were afraid that the other party would turn back to the city.

“Hahahaha! Those cowards in Hongshang Commandery can’t hold it in anymore and want to come out of the city to die!”

The general of the black charm Commandery laughed out loud, overjoyed.””It must be Hongshang Commandery that pressured them and ordered them to fight outside the city! Those face-saving Hongshang Commandery bureaucrats must not be able to stand the humiliation of being suppressed by our black charm Commandery at the border, so they would rather send their soldiers to their deaths!”

“The general is wise! Since those fools are willing to die, of course we have to fulfill their wishes!”

The Deputy general at the side smiled and cupped his fists.”Giving them some space to get into formation is definitely the general’s brilliant move! By the time more of them arrive, it will be impossible to escape back to the city!”

“When the time comes, our Army will take advantage of the situation to pursue them. They definitely won’t have time to close their city gates. Tonight, we should be able to rest in the city!”

Hearing this, the other generals nodded in agreement and praised their General’s wisdom.

As for how many people from Hongshang Commandery came out, they didn’t care at all. Anyway, no matter how many people came out, they would only be courting death!

The atmosphere in the black charm Commandery was relaxed. Although they had only deployed 20000 troops outside the city, they had never thought that they would be defeated in a field battle.

As the order was given, the team from the black magic Commandery began to retreat and stand in formation.

Their general wanted to defeat Hongshang Commandery in one fell swoop and seize the opportunity to take over the city.

However, orders often could not be understood and sent out in a very accurate and smooth manner. When reflected in the formation, it became a focus on offense and impact, but forsaking defense!

Liu Ziyu saw the black charm Commandery’s formation from afar and was secretly happy.

The other party had indeed underestimated him!

Next, it’s time for you to taste the price of underestimating your enemy!

The team from Hongshang Commandery went out of the city and got into formation as planned. From the black charm Commandery’s side, there was nothing unusual.

It was still the same old recipe, a familiar taste!

But in fact, the soldiers they saw were still wearing their old equipment, while the troops behind them were all wearing the weapons and equipment sent by the central Chamber of Commerce.

That included six thousand armor-piercing crossbows!

Liu Ziyu had put almost all of the Royal capital’s Garrison into this battle.

A total of 12000 soldiers were in charge of using the armor-piercing crossbows.

There were about a thousand shieldmen at the forefront, wearing two sets of armor and using double-layered shields.

Apart from that, the rest were cavalrymen, split into the left and right wings, ready to attack from the side at any time.

The general of the black charm Commandery was obviously dismissive of this. The last time he defeated Liu Ziyu’s Garrison, the situation was similar to now. However, at that time, the black charm Commandery only had 10000 people!

Now they had 10000 more troops, but the number of troops from Hongshang Commandery was even fewer than last time. So in the eyes of the general of the black magic Commandery, the victory was already decided without having to fight!

“What a pity! There are too few soldiers in Hongshang Commandery. Even if we divide them evenly, it’s not enough for each of us to get one head!”

The crossbowmen of the black charm Commandery were very relaxed and joked in a low voice.

This kind of serious violation of military discipline was normally absolutely not allowed. However, the current situation was that the black charm Commandery, from top to bottom, was superior and looked down on the Hongshang Commandery.

Therefore, even if the senior officer discovered this, he didn’t stop him. After all, this was a time to build up his ambition!

Everyone had the same thought. The people of Hongshang Commandery would not have a chance to get close. They would die on the way and escape!

“Advance!”

The troops from Hongshang Commandery began to leave the city in an orderly manner and lined up side by side. Under li Yingjian’s command, they steadily advanced forward!

The black charm Commandery looked at the front with ease and pride, as if they were looking at a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

At this moment, the soldiers of the black charm Commandery did not even raise their crossbows as the Hongshang Commandery had not entered the range of the armor-piercing crossbows.

Because at this distance, the crossbow arrow couldn’t hit the other party at all. Even if it could barely reach the other party, it wouldn’t pose any threat!

What they were waiting for was for the group of idiots from Hongshang Commandery to make further progress!

Li Yingjian’s face under the helmet was extremely calm, and his eyes seemed to ignore everything.

After moving forward for some distance, he suddenly shouted in a deep voice,””Group One, get ready! Six consecutive shots!”

Before leaving the city, the team of Hongshang Commandery was divided into groups according to the number of armor-piercing crossbows. Each group had 1000 armor-piercing crossbows, and they were divided into six groups.
