The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince

Chapter 196 Weird Command Ability

Ning Potian also noticed this and shook his head. Although Jiang Fan’s idea was indeed good, his method felt too crude!

Sure enough, not only Dora Yue'er thought of a way to crack the problem, but even the Northern Mongolian general who led 5,000 cavalrymen also thought of it.

He acted decisively and organized a cavalry formation, trying to bypass the enemy from both sides.

But just as he was about to go around, he saw a lot of running infantrymen appearing on both sides. They were running at a very fast speed, raising a lot of dust on the ground.

Then, a lot of spiked bamboo joints were placed on both sides. What shocked them even more was that these infantrymen did not place the spiked bamboo joints on the ground, but directly held them up and pressed towards them.

The distance between the two sides was less than thirty feet. At this distance, even if one wanted to increase the speed of the warhorse, it would not be much.

If a warhorse is pricked by the sharp bamboo joints, it will definitely be frightened and thrown into chaos.

Duo La Yue Er was stunned when she saw this scene. She was shocked to find that the thorny bamboo joints on both sides were more than ten feet long!

With such a length, it can easily stop cavalry and even provide excellent protection for itself.

The five thousand cavalry had just left the city and had not yet deployed their troops when they were surrounded on three sides. No, they were about to be surrounded on four sides.

I saw four hundred light cavalry horses on the left and right sides, each dragging two people. They pulled long spiked bamboos and went directly behind the five thousand cavalrymen, cutting off their rear!

The 5,000 cavalrymen in the field were trapped in the middle of the spiked bamboo. Then, the infantry began to move towards the middle, compressing the cavalry's space at a very fast speed.

This situation dumbfounded the Northern Mongolian cavalry who had just left the city, and even the leading general was dumbfounded.

He had a vague idea of ​​how Princess Dora had fallen! He was afraid that he might also fall here.

Thinking of this, he made a prompt decision and quickly divided the five thousand people into four directions, trying to break through the siege of the spiked bamboo formation.

Although the spiked bamboo formation was terrifying, if a hole was broken, the power of the spiked bamboo formation would be gone. But just as he had this thought, the order was given and had not yet been executed.

Then I heard countless things whizzing and falling into the cavalry formation, bang...bang!

Amidst the loud noises, the entire cavalry formation was thrown into chaos, with casualties in large numbers. Let alone organizing manpower to charge the formation, it was not easy for him to keep his horse steady!

Ning Potian, who was standing next to Jiang Fan, was so shocked when he saw this scene that his eyes almost popped out. He thought he had seen it wrong.

Five thousand Northern Mongolian cavalrymen were surrounded as soon as they left the city. Just as they were about to make any moves, strange weapons fell into the formation and exploded on the spot.

Not only did the bomb cause heavy losses to the cavalry, it also disrupted their formation and even frightened the horses.

In such a situation, the cavalry could hardly protect themselves, let alone organize a charge!

He looked at Jiang Fan in horror, and finally understood why this guy was so calm!

It turned out that everything was within his calculations, whether it was the spiked bamboo formation or the strange weapon that suddenly appeared, it was simply the nemesis of the cavalry.

Just the explosive weapons alone, once they fall into the cavalry formation, it will become extremely difficult for the cavalry to play to their own advantages!

The sound of the explosion has the greatest impact on war horses. The cavalry's greatest reliance is the war horses. Once the war horses are frightened, the cavalry is almost useless!

On the city wall, Dora Yue'er saw Jiang Fan's complete set of countermeasures, and a trace of horror flashed in her eyes. She was glad that she did not go out of the city to snipe.

Otherwise, no matter how many people are sent out, they may be killed by Jiang Fan!

After all, if there are too many cavalrymen and they encounter Jiang Fan's strange explosive weapons, there will be even more chaos.

Even without Jiang Fan taking action, their own people might kill their own people.

If we send too few people, there won’t be enough for Jiang Fan to kill!

For the first time, she felt that Jinzhou City might be lost! She was unwilling to lose the Jinzhou City she had captured with great difficulty.

Her first thought was to recall the cavalry that had been sent out. Since there was no way to confront Jiang Fan head-on and the cavalry advantage was gone, the only thing she could do was to defend the city!

She ordered her men to blow the horn to retreat, but although she wanted to retreat, it was not that easy.

The 5,000 cavalrymen who had been trapped in the encirclement were in chaos under the artillery fire. They fled in all directions like headless flies, and their frightened horses were out of control!

As the fleeing cavalrymen rushed into the spiked bamboo formation, many of their horses fell directly to the ground.

Even the war horses that rushed deep into the spiked bamboo formation had their legs chopped off by the infantry, causing them to fall down.

Because the war horses did not speed up, they were frightened and the cavalry on them were also panicked and had no way to fight. Therefore, their charge did not cause any damage to the infantry.

Instead, the cavalrymen who rushed into the spiked bamboo formation were thrown off their horses, and before they had time to resist, they were hacked to death on the spot by the surrounding Zhoufu troops.

The battle was one-sided, with the cavalry in a mess in the middle, and the infantry around them surrounded them with spiked bamboos, chopping the horses and the cavalry! It was a ruthless harvest.

Nearly half of the 5,000 cavalrymen were killed directly, and several generals such as Li Yunzhuo rushed to the front. They worked together to kill the Northern Mongolian general Ba Han who led the army on the spot.

The remaining cavalry finally managed to steady their horses after the artillery fire died down, but only then did they realize that they were completely surrounded by the spiked bamboo formation, and the horses they were riding had become a burden.

The war horses were frightened by the surrounding thorny bamboo formation. No matter how they drove them, the horses simply wouldn't obey!

With no other options, they had to jump off their horses and abandon their horses to fight the infantry. They rushed towards Jinzhou City, wanting to escape back to the city.

In the city, Dora Yueer saw this scene, her face full of anger. A dozen of the surrounding Northern Mongolian generals were so angry that they trembled when they saw their compatriots being slaughtered one-sidedly. Several people wanted to ask for permission to go out of the city to rescue them.

With a flicker in her eyes, Dora Yue'er sent a general with a thousand cavalrymen to rescue them. As long as they killed the infantry near the city gate, they could still save the people.

However, just as the one thousand cavalrymen rushed out of the east gate of Jinzhou City, they encountered four hundred white-robed cavalrymen who suddenly rushed out from both sides.

Dora Yueer looked at the four hundred white-robed cavalrymen with a hint of sarcasm on her lips. Although, she had fought with the white-robed cavalrymen briefly before.

But she didn't think that the White Robe Cavalry could compete with the Northern Mongolian Cavalry. It was because they were designed before that their combat effectiveness was not brought into full play.

This time they will rush out of the city and will definitely deal a heavy blow to the White Cavalry. Both sides are at the same starting line, and the only ones who will lose are the White Cavalry.

But as soon as she had this thought, she was stunned. The white-robed cavalry were fighting with the Northern Mongolian cavalry that were leaving the city.

The Mo Dao in the hands of the white-robed cavalry was like a magical weapon. The Northern Mongolian cavalry's swords were cut off with one strike when they met the Mo Dao.
