The archway at the corner of the street suddenly collapsed .
Then, the buildings next to it successively collapsed, stirring dust and smoke . Countless bricks and woods piled up like a small mountain, blocking Long Street .
The gra.s.sland cavalry head's anxious and panicked expression turned ferocious . Staring at the approaching army, he held his cutla.s.s in his hand and stopped retreating .
The countless gra.s.sland cavalry stopped retreating .
All of a sudden, more heel ropes were set up on the chaotic street, entangling the horseshoes of Tang's armored cavalry .
The horses heavily fell down on the hard ground, making a dull sound . Many soldiers were hurt .
More soldiers of Yan showed up on the buildings on both sides of the street and began shooting at the Tang army . The arrows raged like a rainstorm and caused ma.s.sive destruction .
From time to time, buildings collapsed and blocked the street, which was difficult for the Tang Army to overcome . Some of them were buried under the buildings and were unable to stand up .
This was indeed an ambush .
However, it was not for the gra.s.sland cavalry .
It was for the Tang Army .
The black armored cavalry of Tang was invincible .
Could it still be invincible today?
Looking at his falling subordinates, the Tang general turned to the Yan Army and the gra.s.sland cavalry and said, "Kill them all . Kill them all and we can get out of here . "
The ambushes happened everywhere in the city .
The Tang Army had suffered a heavy blow, but they still kept charging . With the anger of betrayal and the sadness for their comrades' deaths, they waved podaos and spears, rus.h.i.+ng toward their enemies .
The Northeast Border Army faced the hardest situation and the most numerous enemies on Long Street . The waves of enemies and the skillful gra.s.sland cavalry seemed unable to be eliminated, ever .
Even so, there was no enemy that could not be eliminated .
Every cavalryman of Tang had a belief: as the general said, as long as they could kill all the enemies, they could get out .
All kinds of noises sounded in Long Street . The waves of enemies were shocked by the Tang Army and left an opening in a wide crossroads .
The general pa.s.sed the broken padao to his left hand and shouted in a deep voice, "Continue to charge!"
As long as they could rush out of Long Street, the Yan Army could no longer organize an effective interception . Then, according to the Great General's plan, he could lead his soldiers to the Eastern City gate and return .
Though he didn't look back, he knew he had lost half of his army .
This was the biggest loss of the Tang armored cavalry for decades, but he wasn't sad . He knew that every soldier would have killed many more enemies before dying .
It was enough .
They could stand up and proudly go back .
The general tied down his halter and ran forward, hewed a gra.s.sland soldier's head in the blood rain .
Suddenly, he felt numb on his injured right hand .
His tired horse stopped .
The hundreds of cavalrymen fell silent as well .
The gra.s.sland cavalry had already been scattered and the formation was in a mess .
However, the previous gap, where they could leave through, was refilled once again .
The cavalrymen wore black armor as well . Compared to the Tang cavalrymen, they were covered with golden talisman lines, s.h.i.+ning with light in the night .
There were only two groups of cavalry qualified to compete with the Tang's in the world .
One was from the Golden Palace .
The other was from the West-Hill Divine Palace .
In the rumor, the Divine Hall's Papal Cavalrymen was too powerful and a thousand of them would be invincible .
For years, in order to appease the countries in the world, the number of the Papal Cavalrymen was controlled within a thousand riders .
However, it became a lie when they showed up .
The number of the Papal Cavalrymen had already been over a thousand .
The general narrowed his eyes and took off his mask, looking at the other side of the street .
He wiped off his blood from his face and burst into laughter after a while .
"I have been trying to verify one thing in my life . You, the West-Hill's cavalry are pure bulls.h.i.+t . I didn't expect that I can have a chance to prove that before I die . "
The general stopped laughing, lifting his podao, and said, "Who would like to go with me?"
Hundreds of Tang soldiers answered him in the same breath . They were fearless and had decided to fight with their lives on the line .
On the restaurant .
Looking at the city in the night, Xian Zhilang tightened his hands holding the handrail .
He narrowed his eyes, and then loosened his right hand after a short time, knocking on the handrail .
When he knocked with his ring finger, he stopped and issued three military orders .
"Forward Camp, disperse with permission to kill at will in the city . We need to stall until dawn . "
"The rest of the army will arrive at the Eastern Gate in an hour, taking the opposite routes . "
"The guard battalion will go to the prince's residence with me . "
The officers and signallers in the restaurant were stunned and then began to act .
They should not be stunned, but the three orders were too shocking to digest .
To disperse the Forward Camp was equivalent to win some time for the rest of the cavalry's retreat with their lives .
"We have lost . "
Looking at his soldiers, Xian Zhilang said, "We should make it pretty . If any of lives after this, remember to tell the Princess—we lost because we trusted the wrong person . Now we are fighting against the whole world . We should trust no one but the Tangs . "
After saying this, he looked at the Yan's general .
The man was one of the most important generals in Yan who was qualified to be here .
Looking at Xian Zhilang, he made a sad smile and then killed himself with his saber .
Xian Zhilang walked down the restaurant .
Dozens of soldiers, who were carrying their podaos, walked out of the dark . They looked around with vigilance and realized they were ambushed . That meant the Great General was the first one their enemies wanted to kill .
However, Xian Zhilang didn't wait to be killed .
His third order had indicated his choice .
He went to the prince's residence with his guard battalion .
He was going to meet Crown Prince Chong Ming .
He needed to kill him, or be killed by him .
