"Crush them!" Zhang Kai's face was filled with madness. His broadsword had been stained with blood. His body was covered with minced meat and blood as if he had crawled out from hell.
"Run! Run! " The dead no longer had any fear. Only the living could truly feel the horror. The troops of the supply camp were in chaos. More than a thousand of the 5,000 people of the supply camp had died. Most of them were trampled to death. Only some unlucky ones were beheaded by the Yu Province cavalry on the spot.
"General!" Chengyu stood aside and looked at Liu Mang who was motionless. Although Chengyu was a soldier who had been through hundreds of battles and had the talent of a general, he had never directly faced a cavalry charge. He was a little flustered. However, when he saw Liu Mang's indifferent expression, he gradually calmed down.
If Liu Mang knew what he was thinking, he would definitely kill him! He was not calm at all. He was so scared that his facial muscles were cramping. That was why he showed an indifferent expression.
"General, what about these supply troops?" The first wave that Liu Mang was facing was not the Yu Province cavalry or the Chen Lan army led by Lei Bo. It was his own supply troops.
These supply troops were scattered by the cavalry. They ran away in fear. People had a characteristic. The more afraid they were, the more they would run to places with more people. Perhaps they wanted the people around them to be afraid of them!
About 3,000 people were rushing towards his phalanx formation.
"No, absolutely not!" Liu Mang muttered to himself. He knew that if these supply troops really rushed over and scattered his formation, then it would really become a massacre. He was wearing a shiny golden armor and it was impossible for him to escape.
"Bang!" The first wave of supply troops had already rushed to the front row of the giant shield soldiers.
"I can't die! How can I die here! " Liu Mang had already seen the crazy and bloodthirsty expression of the cavalry in front of him. Liu Mang went all out. He pulled out his long sword and urged his horse to rush to the flank of the phalanx formation.
"General?!" When Chengyu saw Liu Mang rush out, he hurriedly pulled his personal battalion and ran after him.
"I can't let you guys get separated!" Liu Mang was going crazy. As the saying goes, if you don't die in fear, you'll go crazy in fear.
Liu Mang borrowed the momentum of the horse and arrived at the front row of the square formation in an instant.
When the soldiers of the supply battalion in the front row saw Liu Mang, they all shouted, "General, General, save us!" Their attacks became even more ferocious. They wanted to break through the formation and reach the back. Only then would they feel safe.
"Save you?" Liu Mang muttered to himself, "Then who will save me? I'm sorry! "
"General, you!" The soldier closest to Liu Mang couldn't believe his eyes. "You, you!" Before he could finish his words, he fell down. Blood splashed onto Liu Mang's face.
Liu Mang was also stimulated by the blood. He roared, "If anyone dares to attack again, I'll kill them without mercy!"
Liu Mang's killing did not scare these supply battalion soldiers. One of the supply battalion soldiers shouted, "If you go back, you will die. If you want to live, then charge!" As he spoke, he waved his broadsword at Liu Mang.
"Yes! Charge, we can live! Kill him, kill him! " Some of the supply battalion soldiers who were scared by the Yu Province cavalry began to pick up their swords. They didn't dare to deal with the enemy behind them, but they dared to attack their own people.
"You dare!" Liu Mang underestimated the severity of the explosion of the camp. These supply troops are under the desire to survive. Who cares if you are a general or not? Who cares if you are their leader? In order to survive, they will do anything.
There were already supply battalion soldiers who pulled the reins of Liu Mang's horse. They wanted to pull Liu Mang off his horse and kill him.
Liu Mang was about to be pulled off his horse and die in the chaos.
"If anyone dares to touch the general, I'll kill them without mercy!" A flying figure suddenly rushed over. The spear in his hand swept across. Suddenly, Liu Mang's side was empty. Those supply battalion soldiers who wanted to rebel fell into a pool of blood. It was Chengyu. He always followed Liu Mang's side.
"The enemy cavalry is coming. If we don't leave now, we won't live!" The Yu Province cavalry was getting closer. "There are only two of them. Kill them!" Someone shouted.
"If anyone dares to touch the general, I'll kill them without mercy!" Behind Cheng Yu were 100 cavalrymen who also rushed toward Liu Mang. Now they do not care if you are an ally or not, as long as you are charging toward Liu Mang, as long as you are charging toward Liu Mang, you will be beheaded.
They were like a meat grinder! Because of their secret skill, the 100 personal cavalry soldiers killed more than 200 people.
"General, are you okay?" Chengyu asked with concern.
"I'm fine!" Liu Mang was scared. If Chengyu didn't come in time, Liu Mang would have died here.
200 corpses were lying on the ground. It made the supply battalion soldiers calm down a lot.
Retreating was death. Advancing was also death!
Many of the supply camp soldiers were in despair. They threw down their weapons, and some even began to wail. The fear of death made them unable to control their own bodies.
Survival was the most basic instinct of everyone. Before they became soldiers, they were just ordinary farmers and peddlers. How could they experience the kind of killing on the battlefield? Even soldiers who had been through hundreds of battles would be nervous when facing cavalry, let alone them.
Was it wrong for them to run away? No! They were just supply battalion soldiers. Their task was to escort the provisions. Was it wrong for them to charge? It was also right. They just wanted to live.
Liu Mang looked at these supply battalion soldiers and felt bad. If he blocked them here, he was afraid that these 5000 supply battalion soldiers wouldn't be able to survive. These were 5000 lives. Because of his order, they would all be slaughtered on the spot.
Liu Mang's heart softened. Especially when he saw some young faces in the supply battalion. There was also an old body. Old people and children? These people should be taken care of in peaceful times. In this chaotic world, they could only struggle bitterly. The swords in the hands of the young ones were taller than their bodies. Could the old ones still hold their weapons?
They might be someone's son or someone's father. But in this place, they only had one name. They were soldiers.
"Get out of the way!" Liu Mang made a big decision and suddenly said.
"En?!" Chengyu was puzzled. Get out of the way? "General, you can't do that. If you get out of the way and let them break the formation, we'll be finished!" Cheng Yu also knew that to deal with cavalry, only an organized battle formation could resist. Once they were scattered, they would be nothing but food, they would be completely sent to be beheaded.
Let them pass? They would break the formation.
"Go to the side!" The City Guard's formation had a passage that could allow two people to pass.
"Thank you General for saving our lives. Thank you General for saving our lives!" These supply battalion soldiers saw the hope of survival. They thanked him happily and were about to rush to the side to leave.
"Pu!" Another head was chopped off and fell to the ground. Liu Mang made his move again. This made the supply battalion soldiers turn pale with fright. Could it be that the general went back on his word?
Liu Mang said coldly, "Line up. The old and weak in front, the strong behind!" If all of them swarmed the Urban Army, then the ones who will be trampled to death and abandoned will definitely be the old and the weak. There is also the possibility of breaking up the Urban Army phalanx formation. The only way is to line up. Just now, Liu Mang beheaded one of the soldiers in front of him who was forced to leave behind the line.
"Yes, yes!" These supply battalion soldiers had already seen Liu Mang's methods. They obediently lined up side by side to pass.
One hundred people, two hundred people, three hundred people, five hundred people, one thousand people. When two thousand people had passed, Liu Mang suddenly ordered to seal the passage.
"General, you can't!"
"General, please let us pass. Please!"
"General, save us. Please save us!"
Liu Mang couldn't listen to these pleas. He turned his head and said coldly, "Either turn back and charge at the enemy, or try to break the formation! Kill all those who break the formation! "
It wasn't that Liu Mang didn't want them to pass, but the enemy's cavalry was about to arrive. Liu Mang had already seen the face of the cavalry on the opposite side.
"Come, come! Let me see the power of the most terrifying soldiers in the era of cold weapons! "
