The Mongolian cavaliers' path of retreat might have been cut off, but they still charged forward like lightning, and they swept through everything in their path. Not only did they not show any signs of retreating, they even charged at the general who was surrounded by a group of guards.
Along the way, the Mongolian cavaliers cut down the infantrymen around them as if they were cutting vegetables. Each of them was covered in blood, and their faces were fierce, causing others to feel terrified.
The people who charged into the formation with Happy clearly had extraordinary judgment, and they all had the same plan. They were prepared to attack only when the Mongolian cavaliers arrived in front of the general and the group of guards.
The infantrymen that numbered to nearly ten thousand could not form an effective counterattack in front of the Mongolian cavaliers, but Happy and the others could tell with just one glance that the group of guards protecting the general not only had great equipment and presence, there were dozens of them, and all of them were captains. Their strength was definitely above that of a normal soldier!
When the Mongolian cavaliers arrived in front of them, their momentum would be at its weakest.
It was the wisest time for them to attack.
But …
Amidst the chaos, not everyone could clearly see this point.
A few reckless people stepped on the soldiers' helmets and charged forward in high spirits.
There was no way no one would take care of them when they appeared in such a flashy manner. The cavaliers at the back were troubled that they did not have enough enemies to train against.
When they were less than 328 feet away from the Mongolian cavaliers, a few axes suddenly flew out from the charging Mongolian cavaliers, and the sound of bowstrings vibrating could be heard.
Bang!
They were caught off guard, and two people had their chests turned into a bloody mess by the axes. They screamed in pain and fell into the crowd. The other two fell out of the air like porcupines.
There was one similarity between the four people's landing spots — sharp, black spear tips that shone with a chilling light.
Thud!
Thud!
Four corpses fell into the crowd with sharp longspears.
Happy and the people at the back saw the tragic state of the people at the front. Some of them snorted in derision, while others had solemn expressions.
The damage from the Mongolian cavaliers' throwing axes was extraordinary. Their body fortifications could not block it at all, and even their equipment was destroyed.
A few people sucked in a sharp breath on the spot. They quickly changed directions in the air and left the frontlines.
The remaining two people were a man and a woman.
The man held an incredibly sturdy black gold longsword. He was agile, and his gaze was firm. The woman was rather far away, and Happy could not see her clearly. However, she did not have any weapons in her hands, which was a little strange.
While Happy was paying attention to the duo, the man and woman were also sizing him up in secret.
After all, there were quite a number of people who had fourth-echelon equipment like Happy, but in a battlefield where life and death could be decided in an instant, there were not many who dared to wear Bamboo Hats to hide their faces.
Although some people liked to pretend to be mysterious or to attract attention, the thin white gauze would indeed cause a certain degree of interference to the user during a fight. Moreover, the feeling and sound of the white gauze brushing against the face would also affect the player's vision and hearing. Wearing a bamboo hat in such a dangerous battlefield was no different from committing suicide.
However …
Not only did he wear a bamboo hat, but he also appeared on the battlefield empty-handed. This kind of person was even more unfathomable.
In their opinion, this person was either a super expert or a super idiot.
The two of them quickly retracted their gazes.
Hooves thundered against the ground, and cries for murder came charging at their faces. The Mongolian cavaliers finally arrived near the general who was surrounded by a group of guards.
The large group of soldiers guarding the area outside might have formed a temporary defense line, but at the moment the cavaliers charged over, they were still quickly cut down and killed. They screamed in pain, and their defense line was torn apart.
The group of guards could even clearly see the Mongolian cavaliers' fierce faces and savage smiles.
"Haha! It's a general! "
"Capture him alive! Kill the others! "
The two people at the front of the cavalier unit communicated with each other and quickly set up their mission.
The Mongolian cavaliers behind them responded to their orders.
Throwing axes!
Sneak attacks!
The axes and arrows that shot out from behind the cavaliers caused the people protecting the general to be thrown into chaos. The guards who protected the general in front of him could not react in time, and they were killed on the spot.
Thud!
The other guards were beheaded by the Mongolian cavaliers who charged out from the side, and blood gushed high into the air.
"Leader Li, protect the general!"
"The others, follow me!"
The group of guards had extraordinary skills. When they saw that the situation was urgent, they lowered their bodies and crashed into their enemies.
The dozen or so Mongolian cavaliers only heard their steeds let out a pained neigh. Their bodies bent down, and they fell to the ground with their horses!
Cold glares came at them from the side and cut open their necks violently. More than ten Mongolian cavaliers were killed on the spot.
The dozens of people were agile, and their attacks were ruthless. They continued charging at the Mongolian cavaliers without stopping, and they quickly created a certain degree of chaos. Since they had charged forward, the Mongolian cavaliers' charge had finally been slightly blocked.
However …
When the Mongolian cavaliers reacted to the situation, they seized the chance when the guards were harvesting their heads to throw their axes.
Thud! Thud!
The dozen or so guards had their chests crushed by axes the moment they showed their heads, and they fell violently to the ground.
This was just a small part of the battlefield. Even though Happy was slightly shocked by the general's guards' fighting strength, he did not want to miss this perfect chance to enter the battlefield.
Whoosh!
Without hesitation, Happy charged over.
At the moment his feet landed on the ground, a guard who had his arm cut off by a throwing axe grabbed Happy's leg. He was not completely dead yet.
If Happy had not activated Nine Yang Divine Skill and noticed that the general's guard by his feet did not harbor any ill will towards him, he would definitely not have allowed the guard to grab the corner of his pants so gently.
The spot where the guard's arm was cut off was a horrible sight to behold. His face was pale, and blood foamed out of his mouth. By the looks of it, he was exhaling more than he was breathing.
But as he struggled, Happy still managed to hear the meaning behind the guard's faltering words.
"Please … young swordsman … protect … the general …"
The guard's pants were released, and he breathed his last with his eyes wide open.
"Ding!
The system notification popped up.
"Triggered a quest. You received a request from the dead general's guard to protect the general!
"If the general does not die and is not captured alive by the Mongolian cavaliers, you will complete the quest, and you will obtain an additional one thousand points. If the general dies, you will fail the quest, and as punishment, you will have one thousand points deducted."
The notification at the end instantly pulled Happy back from charging at the Mongolian cavaliers.
Through his spiritual senses, Happy noticed that there were only a few guards left beside the general. A group of Mongolian cavaliers had already surrounded them, and the people inside were already fighting like cornered beasts.
Happy did not have the time to curse the general's guard who could not be more dead. He gritted his teeth and tapped against the ground to avoid a flying axe. Then, he charged to where the general was, and his heart burned with anxiety.
'I don't care what sort of general you are, you must not die!'
One thousand points might not be a lot, but at this moment, he could not afford to lose them.
