Lin Yi nodded. As a local general, song shaopeng was a pretty good one!
If there was a chance in the future, he could cultivate it.
Lin Yi turned to look at fire sickle city, where there were two thousand soldiers with enough bows and arrows, ready to intercept the troops of the seitong Commandery.
Thatch's side was still Lin Yi and the eight hundred Guards unit.
Sometimes, the more people there were, the better it was for an ambush. Enough mobility might be able to play a greater role.
In the silence, the 30000 soldiers of seitong Commandery passed by the ambush location.
Just as Lin Yi said, the enemy didn't even care about an ambush location like this.
Under the light of the morning sun, the entire thatched land could be seen clearly. The general of seitong Commandery took a quick glance and no longer paid attention to it, let alone sending someone to investigate.
There were at most two thousand people lying in ambush in that thatched field. Even if there were two thousand people hiding there, they wouldn't care, let alone if there were no abnormalities.
However, they would soon know that the number of people was not the key to whether they cared or not!
Lin Yi gave the order to attack when two-thirds of the troops had passed.
The 800 cavalrymen instantly stood up from the grass, as if the grass had suddenly been raised by half.
"Kill!"
Lin Yi shouted as he wrapped his legs around the horse's belly. The Black Spirit Ferghana horse dashed out like lightning and reached the side of the road in the blink of an eye.
Most of the soldiers were still looking at Lin Yi in shock, not even realizing that they were in an ambush.
"Kill!"
Song shaopeng followed closely beside Lin Yi, his long blade held high, his face a bit ferocious from the excitement.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The eight hundred Guards unit roared in unison, following their invincible commander, waving their weapons and charging forward!
The unprepared troops were easily torn apart by Lin Yi. The eight hundred cavalrymen formed a sharp blade and easily cut through the dragon-like Army.
Lin Yi acted as the tip of the blade, controlling the direction of the attack. After entering the line of soldiers, he adjusted his position slightly and followed the line!
The Black Spirit Ferghana horse's speed had already increased, and with no one able to stop Lin Yi, the force of the eight hundred cavalry was quickly being released.
The chaos arrived as expected!
The first reaction of the soldiers who were cut off by Lin Yi was to regroup and chase after the fearless cavalry.
However, they were too slow and couldn't catch up at all. They could only follow behind, shouting and chasing.
This way, not only did they not cause any damage to Lin Yi's Guards unit, but they also made the front line even more chaotic!
Who would have thought that there were only eight hundred cavalrymen lying in ambush?
In their panic, the people at the front thought that their own people behind them were all finished, and that the rest were all enemies!
The scarier thing was that Lin Yi's speed was too fast, almost as if he was chasing after chaos, causing even more chaos. The people at the front didn't even receive any news!
When the frontmost soldiers felt that something was wrong behind them, the two thousand soldiers from fire sickle city appeared!
They didn't have Lin Yi's sudden attacks, but they had a lot of arrows.
The soldiers guarding the border cities were not all master archers, but they were at least very skilled at archery.
Two thousand arrows flew through the air. The arrowheads had already been ignited, and they left a trail of brilliant flames in the air.
The first wave of arrows was launched in the blink of an eye, and the second wave of flaming arrows followed.
Then, in this interval of time, he continuously scattered down eight batches of Flame Arrow formations.
20,000 fire arrows were shot at the front line of the SE Tong Commandery, causing a great chaos.
The first wave was not blocked. The flames fell to the ground and ignited the weeds on the side of the road, not to mention the subsequent waves.
The soldiers of the selencopper Commandery were instantly thrown into a state of confusion, and it was difficult for them to organize an effective defense.
The front and back fell into chaos at the same time, and the soldiers in the middle who had not been affected were suddenly at a loss.
They had received the news overnight and rushed to fire sickle city, but they had been ambushed halfway. Even the slowest person would have thought that they had fallen into a trap.
Were they attacked from the front and back, or had they already been completely surrounded?
Although there were no enemies on both sides of the road, the soldiers of seitong Commandery did not dare to run to either side. Who knew if a bunch of burly men would suddenly jump out from there?
Lin Yi was very satisfied with the current situation. Without revealing his true strength, he had to rely on surprise troops if he wanted to win.
Create chaos, fish in troubled waters, and win in the chaos!
The 800 cavalrymen followed Lin Yi with an unstoppable force, but in reality, they didn't really kill that many enemies.
He had only killed a little more than 1000 people when he reached the first third of the troops from the seimencopper Commandery.
The number of injured enemy soldiers was slightly higher, around two to three thousand.
On average, each of the guards unit killed four to five enemy soldiers.
However, the actual number of casualties in the seitong Commandery was close to 10000.
This was the wondrous effect of the chaos, similar to the ambush at night. The chaos was still spreading on a large scale.
The wind suddenly became violent!
The fire in front was getting stronger and stronger. The soldiers behind saw this and became even more panicked. The thick smell of blood in the air almost suffocated them!
Lin Yi swung his sword and killed one of the soldiers who still had the guts to fight back. Black Spirit's horse charged forward, but the space in front of him suddenly disappeared.
He killed his way through!
The front part of the enemy forces that were in chaos due to the fire had already separated from this side.
The soldiers of seitong Commandery had already fled in different directions, and Lin Yi could only express his regret.
The number of soldiers in their hands was still too small!
If the main force of the capital's Garrison was here, the troops of seitong Commandery would have been completely annihilated!
"Return with this commander and kill!"
Lin Yi turned his horse around and let go of the chance to attack the front line. He charged in the direction he came from.
The front Army had already been scattered, and with the two thousand defenders of fire sickle city watching over them, there should not be any problems for a while.
The middle troops that had been ambushed and killed were almost finished, but the rear troops were still rushing over!
Lin Yi was prepared to destroy this part of the Army in one fell swoop!
"Kill, kill, kill!"
The guards unit soldiers responded with a roar, their morale high as they followed Lin Yi back.
This time was different from the previous attack. Although the enemy had also fallen into chaos, the guards unit still had 30 - 40 casualties.
Lin Yi didn't intervene. This was a war, not a game.
The Commander-in-Chief was not a babysitter. If he only wanted to protect every soldier, there was no need to continue fighting.
I can fight them alone!
Only an Army that had experienced casualties would undergo a new transformation in the baptism of blood and fire and become one of the few powerful armies in the world!
As for the deaths of their comrades, the guards unit would naturally feel sad.
