Chapter 420 Charge, charge!

At this time in the city wall, the street fighting was extremely brutal.

Every street and every ruin is the scene of the most brutal struggle.

The Shuofeng Vanguard Army obviously also understood the intentions of the Dagan Army—

At all costs, we must drag them to death in the city wall and slow down our attack on the main pass.

As a result, more Shufeng troops rushed in frantically.

The engineers pushed heavy battering rams and cloud chariots, and were surrounded by layers of heavy shield soldiers for tight protection, with elite cavalry patrolling outside to provide support.

They ignored everything and just rushed towards the main gate of Zhenbei Pass.

When they encountered a small group of Dagan soldiers who were blocking their way, the outer cavalry rode on their horses and hacked and killed them, forcing them back deep into the alley.

The follow-up troops immediately filled in, advancing step by step, with difficulty but continuously moving forward.

Finally, they broke through layers of blockades and arrived at the huge main city gate of Zhenbei Pass, which was like a mountain.

Above the city gate, a huge and hideous crack was clearly visible. It was the wound caused by the strange phenomenon in the sky and earth just now.

"Break the door!" General Shuofeng roared at the top of his lungs.

Three huge battering rams were pushed forward side by side and slammed hard on the city gate, making a deafening roar!

At the same time, dozens of ladders were set up on the tall city walls, and countless Shufeng soldiers climbed up like ants.

On the city wall, arrows poured down like heavy rain, and rolling logs, stones, boiling gold and kerosene kept falling.

The most primitive and brutal siege battle entered a white-hot stage.

Gradually, corpses piled up like mountains under the city, and the Shufeng Army launched the sixth wave of desperate attacks.

"We must knock them away!" General Shufeng's eyes were bloodshot.

"Hold on, we must hold on!" The defenders on the city wall had hoarse throats and fought to the death.

At this critical moment, the sound of horse hooves like thunder came from the relatively open left wing of the plain outside the city wall.

Two thousand light cavalry from the Fengling Camp finally arrived!

Qin Zhaoqiong was surrounded by the personal guards, standing in front of the formation on horseback, the biting cold wind whistling across her icy visor.

Liu Yan stayed by her side tightly, never leaving her side, his spirit tense to the extreme, not daring to slack off even for a moment.

Qin Zhaoqiong shouted loudly: "Disperse!"

Upon hearing the order, the two thousand light cavalry behind him immediately moved like a well-trained wolf pack, quickly forming groups of thirty cavalry, with the old soldiers of the imperial guards as the vanguard and the female cavalry following closely behind, and they quickly broke away from the main formation and accelerated!

Looking down from the sky, it seemed as if a huge net was spread out in an instant, rushing forward without hesitation towards the seemingly endless army of north wind!

Two thousand against fifty thousand, this is tantamount to suicide.

But all the cavalrymen did not slow down at all, they charged forward at lightning speed and with determination!

Such a big commotion immediately attracted the attention of the Shufeng army.

A cavalry and infantry force of about 3,000 men was detached from the left wing, turned around, and prepared to intercept.

In the eyes of General Shuofeng, the enemy's numbers were limited and there was nothing to be afraid of.

At most, it can only serve as a harassment, but it is impossible to attack the central army.

However, an experienced deputy general immediately noticed something was wrong. The vibration coming from the ground... was definitely not something that could be caused by two thousand light cavalry!

The terrifying image of the destructive impact of the steel torrent suddenly emerged in his memory. His face changed drastically and he roared:

"No, it's the heavy cavalry, the Shen Ce Black Armor Army!

Change the formation, turn the left wing into a forward, and resist with all your strength!

Establish a defense line immediately, quickly!"

The military order was conveyed at full speed.

Tens of thousands of troops on the left wing of Shuofeng immediately mobilized frantically, trying to form a dense defensive formation.

The Shen Ce Xuan Jia Army's reputation for evil was so great that they couldn't help but be afraid.

In the blink of an eye, the fastest vanguard cavalry of the Fengling Camp had already rushed up like a sharp knife.

At this time, the Shufeng infantry hastily formed a line of defense, and the huge shields in the front row slammed heavily on the ground.

The long spears from the back slanted out like a forest, pointing straight ahead, forming a steel jungle of death.

Faced with this hasty but still deadly defense, the vanguard cavalry of the Fengling Camp did not slow down at all, but instead increased the speed of their horses to the extreme.

"charge!"

"kill--!"

Collision! A tragic collision occurred instantly!

The warhorse neighed as it crashed into the huge shield, and the knight was pierced through the chest by a spear and fell off his horse.

The followers filled the gap without hesitation and continued to rush in.

In an instant, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and people and horses fell to the ground!

The Shuofeng Army's defensive line was originally formed in a hurry, and under these desperate attacks, it began to become chaotic.

Finally, a cavalry team fought desperately to tear open a gap and broke into the formation.

The old soldier of the imperial guards who was rushing in the front was stabbed in the chest by several spears at the same time. He used up his last bit of strength to pull the reins of his horse.

The warhorse felt the pain and charged madly to the left front, using its life to tear a narrow gap in the tight military formation, creating a passage for the female rider behind it.

Then he fell off his horse with a bang, and was shot several times in succession. He struggled to draw his sword and wanted to swing it.

But the sword was too short and could not reach the distant enemy at all. In the end, it was completely destroyed by the withdrawn spear, and fell in a pool of blood and dust.

Among this group of cavalry, the imperial guards who were charging in the front had been killed or wounded, leaving only a dozen or so female riders.

The leading female captain gritted her teeth, tears in her eyes but a resolute look as she shouted:

"Follow me! Revenge for our brothers!"

They frantically squeezed into the gaps they had opened at the cost of their lives and rushed forward desperately.

Small groups of large and light cavalry were like moths to a flame.

Using their lives and charging forward one after another, they tore tiny but non-fatal holes in Shufeng's huge army formation.

Finally, at a certain moment, a bright red arrow whistled up from one of the teams that had penetrated the deepest, and shot straight into the sky!

Found it, they found the exact location of the Shufeng Central Army’s personal guard camp!

There were only a thousand cavalrymen left by Qin Zhaoqiong's side.

She watched helplessly as the thousand soldiers in front of her fell into the enemy's formation like drops of water into the sea.

This was a situation where they were bound to die, but they lived up to expectations and exchanged their lives for the most crucial information!

Qin Zhaoqiong's chest rose and fell violently, and a powerful innate energy flowed through his throat and tongue. His voice resounded throughout the battlefield:

"Everyone in the Fengling Battalion, raise your guns!

Target the enemy's center, follow me and charge——

Fight to the death!"

"Fight to the death!"

The remaining one thousand cavalrymen roared in unison, shaking the whole area!

There is no fear, no retreat, only an unstoppable charge forward.

They followed the path stained with the blood of their comrades in front of them and crashed into the enemy camp.

Fight!

With every advance, the troops in front fell and the army formation became thinner and thinner.

There were many obstacles ahead, and the speed of the charge inevitably slowed down.

The light cavalry, having lost their speed, were surrounded and became like lambs to be slaughtered.

Liu Yan stuck close to Qin Zhaoqiong, his heart in his throat.

He knew that the princess would never retreat, but it was his duty to not let her die here.

His "force" has spread over a range of ten feet, ready to forcibly take her out of this desperate situation at any time.

At this moment——

Boom!!!

A deafening roar like an earthquake erupted from both wings simultaneously!

The real steel torrent has finally arrived!

Like a devastating divine punishment, the Shuofeng army formations that had forced the Fengling Camp into a bitter battle and made it difficult for them to advance were easily torn into pieces and flattened like pieces of paper in the face of this irresistible force!

Five thousand Shen Ce black-armored heavy cavalry, like two red-hot hammers, rushed in from the flank with an extremely powerful posture.

The horses' hooves crushed all obstacles, and the spears pointed directly at the central army of Shufeng.

Destroying everything with ease! Unstoppable!
