Li Guifang felt much more at ease knowing that it was someone coming.
But he did not dare to be careless, but went to the west side personally to observe the enemies who appeared on the spot.
"Of course, they are not necessarily enemies!" Li Guifang murmured.
But he was still too naive. The army led by Zhou Lixing had already launched an attack on Long Zhiwei.
"Hold on, you must hold on!" Yuryu Naoee Chito shouted in the formation.
As a cavalryman, it is very difficult to fight in this kind of positional battle.
When Li Guifang came to the front line and learned all the situation, he discussed it with Yuan Zheng who was accompanying him.
"The enemy troops reported by several thousand households amount to five to six thousand people. We cannot continue to waste time with them!"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zheng asked: "Do you want to break out?"
"That's right!"
"But do you know how dangerous it is to go out at night?"
Li Guifang said in a deep voice: "You have also seen that these thieves appear out of nowhere and are very powerful in battle..."
After marching and fighting for several years, Yuan Zheng, who was originally a censor, became a man who knew military matters. He had no objection to Li Guifang's judgment.
Just listen to Li Guifang continue to say: There are so many of them, if they continue to consume us, our army will be completely wiped out!"
Nodding, Yuan Zheng asked: "Where to break out? There are enemy troops on all sides!"
Li Guifang replied: "The northeast side of Zhuangzi!"
"I remember that the river is the widest in that place!"
"So the defense is also the weakest!"
Yuan Zheng understood what Li Guifang meant and replied: "That's it!"
Feeling relieved, Li Guifang said: "You go and deliver the order, I will stay here and take charge!"
"You are the commander..."
"My brothers feel at ease here so that I can cover the evacuation of others!"
Then Li Guifang said: "Don't worry...these bastards can't keep me!"
Thinking of the flashes of swords and swords in the past two years, Yuan Zheng felt relieved, so he stopped talking, said goodbye to Li Guifang and turned around to leave.
"My sons, we are the most elite soldiers in the imperial court. Are we afraid of these thieves who appear out of nowhere?"
Drawing out his saber, Li Guifang roared angrily: "Hold the front, and those behind mount their horses... get ready to charge!"
They are infantry, and there are so many of them, so they can only avoid suffering by mounting their horses and charging.
Except for the 300 soldiers at the front, all the other soldiers on the Western Front mounted their horses and began to charge with Li Guifang's roar.
"Come out and break through!" Li Guifang shouted.
The cavalrymen waved their swords and guns, thinking of the Yong army in front and rushing forward.
At this moment, in the Yong army formation, Zhou Li, who was sitting at the rear, was enjoying himself and secretly thought that these people were seeking their own death.
"Brothers, throw them down for me!" Zhou Lixing shouted with a loudspeaker.
The ones rushing over from the opposite side were only three to four hundred riders, and there were more than a thousand people on their side, so it would not be a problem to block them.
At this moment, a voice sounded in Zhou Lixing's ear: "Sir, there is trouble in the south and east!"
"What trouble?" Zhou Lixing frowned.
"When the monsters heard the noise, they still attracted many of them!"
"Damn it, we have to fight quickly, otherwise the monsters will come here too!"
After fighting for so long, Zhou Lixing has a comprehensive understanding of the movement patterns of zombies.
At this moment, the military formation in front of Zhou Lixing was already fighting Long Zhiwei.
There were strong troops on both sides, but the charge organized by Li Guifang was too small, and they fell directly into the military formation at this moment.
From behind, Li Guifang immediately ordered: "They are withdrawing, you rush forward!"
The first batch of cavalry to rush forward suffered many casualties after hitting the military formation. At this moment, the rest of the cavalry had withdrawn.
Of course, their attack also caused some casualties to Yong's army.
"Come on!"
On the other side, Yuan Zheng has assembled an army of approximately more than 1,200 people.
"Get out!" Yuan Zheng yelled.
There were zombie attacks in the south, so he chose the south to break out.
On the one hand, the zombie attack disrupted the Yong army's formation, greatly increasing the possibility of a breakout.
On the other hand, the south and west sides are close to each other. After they rush out here, Li Guifang and others can follow them up.
"rush……"
The war horses roared and rushed straight out, with the desire to survive and the confidence to win.
Huang Tianyan was guarding the south. At this moment, his subordinates were entangled by zombies, which made him very anxious. Unexpectedly, Long Zhiwei rushed over again.
"Ding Laosi, you guys stand up for me!" Huang Tianyan roared angrily.
Of the 1,000 men under his command, more than 400 are currently used to defend the zombies, and only 600 are used to defend the village.
"Fire arrows..."
"Fire arrows..."
The flying arrows whizzed down on the heads of the Imperial Guards, causing soldiers to fall one after another.
However, these cavalrymen did not feel sad when their comrades fell. Instead, they were aroused. They gripped their spears and sabers tightly and rushed towards the Yong army on the opposite side.
Looking at the Forbidden Army soldiers rushing over, the Yong Army soldiers stood ready, their swords and guns pointing straight ahead.
Just before the two armies were about to come into contact, hundreds of households were heard shouting: "His Royal Highness King Yong...Long live!"
"Long live His Royal Highness King Yong!" all the soldiers shouted.
After shouting this slogan, all the soldiers felt as if they had been injected with chicken blood. Not only did they feel more powerful, but they were no longer afraid of the enemies in front of them.
"kill……"
As soon as the two armies came into contact, people immediately fell on their backs, and there were screams and shouts.
"Go to the southeast side..."
Even if they could charge directly into the military formation, the army would suffer heavy losses, so Yuan Zheng ordered to change direction.
The high mobility of the cavalry allows them to quickly adjust their direction, while the infantry's two legs are undoubtedly much slower.
Rushing to the southeast, Yuan Zheng was at the front of the team, with his own soldiers holding banners and torches to guide his men in the direction.
This was also thanks to the lights of Yong's army, which illuminated Zhuangzi's actions and made it easier for the imperial army to command.
Otherwise, it would be pitch black and the battle would be impossible to fight.
The frontal military formation had only been stabilized here, but Yuan Zheng slipped away to the southeast with his men. Even if Huang Tianyan's men wanted to adjust their direction, it was too late at this moment.
"Shoot arrows... shoot them to death!" Huang Tianyan was furious.
If it weren't for the zombies causing trouble, he would definitely be able to push these people back.
The "first achievement" that he had promised before was beaten, but now he was beaten like this. You can imagine the anger in Huang Tianyan's heart.
Unfortunately, their bows and arrows could not kill many people, so Yuan Zheng still escaped with most of his troops.
"Assault them and rescue Lao Li and the others!"
Although the breakout was successful, Yuan Zheng did not think of escaping alone, but ordered his men to return for rescue.
"Stabilize the formation...Stabilize the formation!" Huang Tianyan roared repeatedly.
At this time, after discovering that Yuan Zheng was breaking out of the encirclement to the south, the armies in the east and north all put aside the intruding zombies and went to support Zhou Lixing and Huang Tianyan.
The range of their battle is actually only one mile in radius, so it is not difficult to support each other.
"Sir, the people from the east are coming too!"
Hearing this, Yuan Zheng did not panic. For him, there was still a chance to rescue Li Guifang and others.
"Sir, please listen..."
At this time, there were shouts of killing all around.
But Yuan Zheng still heard an unusual sound in his ears.
"It's the cavalry..."
As soon as Yuan Zheng came to a conclusion, someone cheered: "Reinforcements have arrived!"
"The voice came from the west, and it's not from us!" Yuan Zheng looked solemn.
Looking at the village only one mile away, Yuan Zheng said bitterly: "Old Li... I can't let my brothers be in danger, I'm sorry!"
According to his experience, there are at least three to four thousand cavalry arriving, and they are only three to five minutes away from here at most.
If he doesn't withdraw now, they will never be able to leave again when the Yong army's cavalry presses forward.
