Sword Among Us Novel - Chapter 851
Chapter 851: Charge at the Formation
Under Happy’s strategy, nearly twenty thousand people from the four sects logged off at the same time, causing the three thousand cavaliers chasing after Happy to travel across flat land until they crashed against Class One Hall’s army.
Even though Class One Hall could vaguely guess that the person riding in front of the cavaliers had deliberately lured the Mongolian cavaliers over and fired a rain of arrows at him, to Happy, if he could affect the Mongolian cavaliers’ arrows, there was no way he could not affect this arrow showed, which did not have a high accuracy rate because of the night.
He put away his Hoof Shadow. Some of the arrows turned around in the air while the night hid their tracks, and they returned to Class One Hall’s army!
While Happy used Shifting Stars to avoid the arrow shower from the Mongolian cavaliers behind him, he could be merciful, but when he faced Class One Hall’s army, he will not show any mercy.
Each arrow drew blood!
They pierced into the bodies of the Class One Hall members like lightning.
In an instant, those people were thrown off their horses, and they cried out nonstop.
With the protection of their body fortifications, only a limited number of Class One Hall members were injured, but it did manage to stir up Class One Hall’s anger.
All of them thought that those were arrows fired from the Mongolian cavaliers, but it was not fake as well.
The first wave was indeed Class One Hall’s arrows, but Happy used the Mongolian cavaliers’ arrow shower in the second wave. The arrows from the cavalry archers were much greater than the power in the arrows of the archers from Class One Hall.
“Kill them!”
When they saw that their friends had been attacked, the people at the back burned with rage.
As for Happy, he used the moment when Class One Hall had their formation thrown off by the arrow shower to slip into their midst.
Of course, Happy will definitely not forget to steal while he was at it.
After all, while he charged over to the place, he saw that the plains was filled with people from Class One Hall. Bright firelight and a black mass of people practically occupied the entire plains, making it seem like the Mongolian cavaliers seem as if they did not have enough power to fight against Class One Hall.
Subconsciously, Happy had the thought to help the weak and get rid of the strong.
Clang!
He squeezed his way into the crowd, and before the people inside could react to his actions, he executed a dazzling sword force that was more than one hundred feet long and more than thirty-two feet wide at the densest part of the vanguards in the crowd where he was.
Caught off guard, a large wave of Class One Hall members were sent flying away by that sword force!
“Who is it?!”
“What’s going on?!”
“Damn it! I heard the system telling me that Happy just attacked me!”
“Careful, Happy is among us!”
“That person just now is Happy!”
“On guard!”
A person’s reputation was very great in affecting the actions of others.
Surprised shouts rose and fell, and countless people had their charge freeze up. Because of it, they overlooked the Mongolian cavalier battalion that came at them with thunderous stomps.
The speed from the Mongolian cavalier was astonishing.
Even though they faced Chinese players with torches that seem as if they could set the plains ablaze, Demon General Zhao Deyan knew just how these martial artists acted.
When the Mongolian cavaliers were alone or only had around ten of them together, they might not be these martial artists’ enemies.
But when they were gathered together, ten thousand martial artists can be completely annihilated by just one thousand cavaliers!
Boom! BOOM!
Two dense waves of arrow showers charged into the crowd. Then, while galloping forward with thunderous stomps, the cavaliers charged into Class One Hall’s army while their vanguards were thrown off their horses.
The advantage of the Mongolian cavaliers while they were on horseback was instantly revealed.
Their composure, calmness, and imposing aura fused into one.
They brought out their weapons, sharp hatchets, scimitars, and morning stars, then used the powerful inertia from their strong warhorses to charge into the crowd.
Boom!
Almost half of the vanguards were lost. The chaos Happy created continued spreading. Before they could react to the two rounds of attacks from the arrow showers, the Class One Hall elites were already violently thrown off the ground by a huge force.
Bang! BANG!
One, two, ten, fifty.
The Mongolian cavaliers were like a sharp awl that pierced into Class One Hall’s formation fiercely.
The people standing in front were shoved to the back, creating even more chaos. When the cavaliers swung their weapons, their actions were even fiercer than before. They swung their weapons at the people’s necks, and they brought with them bloody lines that sprayed high into the air.
Boom!
“Damn it!”
“Ignore Happy first and get rid of those cavaliers!”
It was only then that Class One Hall noticed that while Happy brought them great damage and shock, his true trump card was the Mongolian cavaliers behind him who can kill without blinking an eye.
They now faced a charge from more than three thousand Mongolian cavaliers. If they did not think of a way to stop the cavaliers, even if Class One Hall managed to emerge from this as the victor, they will definitely suffer a lot of sacrifices.
“Attack them!
“Get rid of those Mongolians first!
“Have someone else pay an eye on Happy! Just make sure he doesn’t run away!”
There were a lot of elites in Class One Hall.
Even though they allowed the Mongolian cavaliers to force their way into the army because of a mistake and had nearly one thousand of their people killed right at the first clash, Blood Robes’ shout quickly calmed them down.
They had one hundred thousand people with them. If each of them swung their weapons once, they could kill the entire battalion of Mongolian cavaliers.
“Kill the horses first! If we want to kill them, we have to kill their horses first! Without their horses, they’re nothing!”
Someone in the crowd quickly responded to the situation.
They rushed near the horses and seeped under the horses’ bellies, though it was obvious that they were just copying what Happy did in the battle replay.
Unfortunately for them, this was something other people will find hard to do.
Without Petite Dragon and Arhat Body, even though they managed to avoid the Mongolian cavaliers’ hatchets, there was no way they had tank the Mongolian cavaliers’ pincer attack. After all, they could move around dexterously.
Most of the hundreds of people who rushed near the Mongolian cavaliers were torn apart by the arrow showers and hatchets behind these cavaliers.
Even if they managed to get close, the effect was not great.
When the axes came cutting at them, their momentum froze, and they were hacked into bloody pieces on the spot before they fell back.
“What the heck?!”
A core member from Class One Hall managed to somewhat last through two rounds of attacks because of his equipment. When he saw that the number of people around him gradually decreased, ge clenched his teeth, rolled on the ground regardless of the cost and went to the cavaliers who charged past him.
Crack!
The horses’ legs were broken as the sound rose. Blood gushed at the attackers’ bodies. The war horses whined shrilly, and a few Mongolian cavaliers fell to the ground pathetically.
However, these Mongolian cavaliers’ reaction time on the battlefield was definitely not average. They rolled on the ground and crouched down when they got to their feet. They grabbed their weapons and cut at the head of the person who brought them down.
“Get lost!”
The Class One Hall core member did not treat these Mongolian cavaliers as any form of a threat now that he was under the horse.
He swung his arm, and their attacks were negated while it was still in the air.
The Mongolian cavaliers felt a cold glare flash in front of their eyes, and the person had already charged past them from between them.
Those Mongolian cavaliers’ eyes bulged out. Fresh blood gushed out from their necks. Their knees folded, and like harvested wheat, their corpses fell on the grass dyed red by blood.
“Awesome!”
“Boss Gui, great move!”
“Careful!”
The Class One Hall members behind this core member had their morale increase by leaps and bounds. Right when they smiled, they suddenly noticed a black figure charging out like a phantom from among the Mongolian cavaliers. With an astonishing speed, he moved about on the backs of those Mongolian cavaliers’ backs. In an instant, he arrived near the Class One Hall core member who successfully killed his enemies.
The core member had his expression change. He turned his head around to look, but it was already too late.
A palm that looked like it belonged to Mighty Spirit [1] brought with it an aggressive momentum that could tear apart metal to seize the Class One Hall elite’s throat. Then, without stopping for even a moment, he yanked at the elite.
The Class One Hall elite’s head was yanked off the person’s body while countless pairs of eyes watched.
Thud!
The headless corpse fell to his knees, and soon, he was run over by the hooves that thundered past him, creating a cacophony of sound that sounded like a storm.
