Chapter 515: Human Elite and Battle Formation
When the guards heard Lu Yunyi's order, they reacted instantly and surrounded Lu Yunyi and Wang Chen.

He held the weapon tightly in his hand and stared vigilantly at the city defense troops in front of him.

The crossbow in his hand was already aimed at the hundreds of enemies!

The atmosphere suddenly became tense at this moment!
Lu Yunyi stared at the general who claimed to be the captain of the Xuanwu Guard of the city defense army with a sharp gaze.

Although the other party took out the token, the degree of wear and tear on the token was inconsistent with normal use and it seemed to be deliberately made to look old.

Moreover, this person's eyes flickered, and when he mentioned his identity, he frowned slightly.
The slightest change in expression revealed his guilty conscience.

Looking at the soldiers behind him, although they were wearing armor and looked neat,
But there was a hint of looseness in the ranks, completely lacking the rigor of a regular city defense force.

There was no calmness in their eyes that should be expected from those who had been carrying out city defense missions for a long time.
Instead, he was filled with an unconcealable nervousness and excitement, as if he was waiting for something.

"Lu Bu Tang?"

A hint of panic flashed across the general's face, but he quickly regained his composure.
"Lu Butang is here, why are there so many corpses? What are these so-called rebels?"

As he spoke, he observed Lu Yunyi's reaction calmly.

Lu Yunyi's eyes swept over the people in front of him one by one.
He paused at their waists and sacks and chuckled:
"What? Are the Xuanwu Guards so poor that they can't even equip themselves with bows and crossbows?"

The general's face changed slightly, and he quickly explained:
"Lu Butang, we received news that there was unusual movement here, so we rushed here."

Lu Yunyi snorted in his heart. He noticed that when the general was explaining,
His fingers tapped unconsciously on the hilt of the knife, a subconscious nervous movement.

Moreover, his words were too hasty and his explanations too far-fetched, and it was obvious that he was trying to cover up.

"is it?"

Lu Yunyi's eyes were as fast as lightning as he swept across the soldiers behind the general.

"Why are you nervous?"

The general's face changed, knowing that Lu Yunyi had become suspicious.

He stopped pretending and suddenly shouted, "Do it!"

Following his order, the people who had been pretending to be the city defense troops drew their weapons.
Rushed towards Lu Yunyi and his group.

"It's indeed the rebel party!"

Feng Yunfang roared, swung the long sword in his hand, and rushed towards the oncoming enemy.

The guards quickly joined the battle, and the shouts of killing instantly resounded throughout the bloody battlefield.

However, as soon as they started fighting, they felt the tremendous pressure.

These rebels disguised as city defense troops,

The armor on his body looks like it's made of scrap armor, but it's still sturdy!
The long knife could only leave a shallow mark when it chopped them down, and it was difficult to cause any substantial damage to them.

Most of the royal guards only wore light soft armor, and their protection was far inferior to that of the enemy.

A personal guard stepped forward bravely and slashed at one of the rebels with his long sword.

The rebel did not flinch, but raised his left arm and used the hardness of his armor to block the knife!

Then he turned his hand and slashed the guard's shoulder.

The guard groaned, and blood instantly stained his clothes red.
The soft armor was completely powerless against the opponent's sharp blade. He staggered back a few steps and almost fell.

"Attack their vital points!"

Feng Yunfang shouted loudly to remind his companions,

While wielding a long sword, he fought with a rebel general.

That general was a tall and strong man.

Every time the sword in his hand was swung, there was a whistling sound.

Feng Yunfang could only rely on his flexible body to barely resist.

Lu Yunyi stood behind, the ox horn bow in his hand never stopping for a moment.

He continued to shoot arrows, trying to suppress the enemy's offensive in the chaotic battlefield.

However, the fall of the rebels one by one did not stop their offensive.
The armor gave them great confidence and a sense of security, and they kept pushing forward.

"Sir, we can't go on like this. Our brothers have suffered heavy casualties! You go first!"

A personal guard rushed to Lu Yunyi and said anxiously.

A hint of cruelty flashed in Lu Yunyi's eyes.
He looked around and found that many of his guards were injured and their blood had stained the ground beneath their feet.

"Move left and right, get off the official road!"

Lu Yunyi shouted loudly, and at the same time drew his bow and arrow, aiming at the neck of a rebel general.

With a whoosh, the arrow flew out with a whistling sound.
The shot hit the general's neck accurately.

The general's eyes widened and he covered his neck with his hands.
Blood gushed out from between his fingers, he staggered a few times, and finally fell to the ground.

When the guards heard Lu Yunyi's order, they left the battlefield one after another, rode their horses off the official road, and rushed towards the endless wheat fields on the side!

The dust raised by the horses' hooves spread in the air, shrouding the entire battlefield in a haze.

Those rebels who disguised themselves as city defense troops,
At first, I was a little overwhelmed by this sudden change.
But soon they followed and rushed into the wheat field.

The soil in the wheat field was soft, and it was very difficult for the war horses to run, so their speed was greatly affected.

The rebels relied on their armor and thought that the guards were running away, so they chased after them even more frantically.

As they chased, they waved their weapons and kept shouting curses.

Lu Yunyi rode on the horse with a calm look and a peaceful expression.

He saw that the rebels had caught up with him and their formation was somewhat disorganized, so he was secretly calculating in his mind.

"Prepare for a counterattack! Attack the flank!"

His calm voice echoed in the wheat field, making people feel a long-lost sense of peace.

The guards heard the order and shook the reins.

The war horses turned around and drew a huge arc in the wheat field!

When the horses turned around, they could already see the middle section of the rebels.
And you can see the frightened looks in their eyes!
Almost instantly, everyone reacted.

The rebels in front of us have poor riding skills and lack of coordination!

Lu Yunyi pulled the longbow in his hand hard, aimed at a rebel, and shot the arrow out at a high speed!
Bang!
The feathered arrow radiating cold light fiercely pierced into the head of the galloping warhorse.

A mournful cry sounded, and the warhorse suddenly lost its strength, and the soldier on it rolled out.

The warhorse fell to the ground, and the following rebels were unable to brake in time and crashed into it heavily!
"rush ahead!"

Lu Yunyi shouted loudly, but did not draw out the long sword in his hand. Instead, he took the longbow and shot at the rebel's head!

There, the group slowed down and wanted to turn around!
Lu Yunyi did not hesitate and shot out arrows one by one.

Every arrow is broken at the critical point of turning or decelerating!

Several more tragic scenes of war horses colliding were created!
On the other side, more than 20 guards were already riding on war horses.

He rushed towards the middle of the rebel party without hesitation! !
The sound of horse hooves roared as the distance approached.

The guards could even see their stubbornness in trying to twist the horses' bodies, and could see the fear in their eyes!

Feng Yunfang seemed to have returned to the battlefields of Northern Frontier and Luchuan, and he was extremely calm!

Other commanders will not charge into the battle line easily, so the personal guards are very safe.

But the commander of the front scout unit was different.
They often defeat the enemy personally, and their personal guards are even more dangerous than the vanguard.

In such a dangerous situation, Feng Yunfang is no longer as naive as he used to be!

boom--

The two sides collided violently!
There seemed to be a moment of pause between heaven and earth!

"kill!"

Feng Yunfang shouted loudly, took the lead and rushed towards the enemy.

The long knife in his hand drew a graceful arc in the air and slashed fiercely at a rebel.

Although the rebel was wearing armor, he was still defeated by Feng Yunfang's full-strength attack.

He was still hacked back a few steps, lost his balance and fell off his horse, and was then overwhelmed by his accomplices behind him!

Seeing this, the other guards also joined the battle!
For a time, the rebels were thrown into chaos.
The originally long and narrow team of a hundred people was almost split in two in an instant!
Only chaos remains!

The guards rushed into the battle formation and changed the command in an instant.

No longer follow Feng Yunfang, but follow Gong Xianzhi who is better at seeing flaws!
Gong Xianzhi held a long knife in his hand and chopped off a horse's head with all his strength, shouting:

"Go forward and follow the enemy!"

In an instant, the guards and the rebels were intertwined!
The guards seem to have replaced the latter half of the original rebels.
This scene was extremely strange, the smoke and dust slowly dissipated,
The rebels in the rear looked at the scene in confusion. Where were the enemies?

Soon, screams from the front woke them up.

“They are in our team!!!”

"Chase chase chase!"

One of them was surprised for a moment, but he quickly reacted and pulled the reins to chase after him!
The guards were in the same group as the rebels, hacking and killing them wantonly.

Instead of killing the soldiers, he chopped at the horses!

There was a constant sound of people falling and horses falling.

Gong Xianzhi turned around and chopped back.
Although the rebels were delayed for a moment, they were still able to catch up.

He decisively ordered: "Disengage!"

Feng Yunfang looked around and immediately gave the order:

"Meet up with the adults and head towards the official road!"

"Yes!" A team suddenly split out from the rebel team that was slowly slowing down and quickly headed in the opposite direction.

Lu Yunyi put away his longbow, chuckled, shook the reins, and took the lead, heading towards the official road!

Each person and team began to meet ten feet away. Everything was silent and went with the flow.

"Damn it, chase, chase, chase!!!"

A rebel general was furious when he saw them get away so easily, and kept urging them on!
The group of people who were still struggling to turn simply stopped their horses.

Each of them went to the official road,

For a moment, the formation was in obvious disarray.

But they soon discovered that something was wrong. The group of people who had entered the official road early did not run away, but lined up in an orderly formation of five people.

Lu Kang, who was particularly good at fighting, had sharp eyes and held a banner in his hand.

The enemy was getting closer and closer, but he remained unmoved.

Three hundred steps, two hundred steps, one hundred steps!

"Middle position!"

"Three-stage attack! Salvo!"

"Bang bang bang-"

With Lu Kang's order, the sound of "bang bang bang" of muskets instantly broke the silence of the battlefield, and clouds of pungent smoke quickly spread.

The rebels at the front had no time to react.

They were knocked to the ground by the sudden volley of fire.

Blood burst out from the chest, and the warhorse was hit and shook its head everywhere, losing its balance!
Several rebels in the front row fell off their horses and fell heavily to the ground.

The rebels in the back row panicked upon seeing this, and the already chaotic formation became even more disorganized.

Before they finished,
"Bang bang bang-"

The sound rang again!

The war horses were frightened and raised their front hooves, neighing continuously, throwing the rebels riding on them off.

Some rebels tried to control the frightened horses.

But he was knocked to the ground by the panicked horses and trampled.

"Bang bang bang-"

Five people in three rows fired at the same time, and the air was filled with smoke and dust.

This time, the casualties of the rebels were even more severe, and a huge gap appeared in their ranks.

Many people shouted in fear and tried to find cover.

"kill!"

Feng Yunfang took advantage of the enemy's confusion and shouted,
He led his personal guards, wielding long swords, and rushed into the enemy camp like a tiger descending from the mountain.

They rushed left and right among the rebels, their swords flashing,
Every swing was accompanied by the enemy's screams and splattering blood.

Lu Yunyi held a longbow and kept drawing the bow and drawing arrows!
His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, locking onto a rebel general who was trying to reorganize his troops.

He pulled the longbow to its full extent, and a feathered arrow flew out with a whistling sound, accurately hitting the general's throat.

The general's eyes widened, he covered his neck with both hands, blood gushed out from between his fingers.

He swayed a few times and eventually fell off the horse.

Without the command of their general, the rebels became even more panicked.

They fled in all directions without any order, completely losing their previous arrogance.

The guards pursued the enemy and did not give them any chance to breathe.

However, the rebels were numerous.
After the initial panic,

They gradually calmed down and began to organize a counterattack.

"withdraw!"

Feng Yunfang roared, and his guards hurriedly broke away from the battle formation and headed towards the wheat field on the other side of the official road!

Lu Yunyi's body rose and fell on the warhorse, and he ordered:
"Divide the troops. Feng Yunfang will lead more than ten cavalrymen to bypass the enemy from the rear and create an opportunity to annihilate them."

"Yes!" Feng Yunfang showed affection in his eyes and waved his hand: "Let's go!"

More than ten riders left the battle formation. Lu Yunyi pinned his longbow to the side of his horse, drew out his long sword, and gave the order:

"All troops, prepare yourself. This time we are going to strike directly at the enemy's rear!"

"Yes!"

Following Lu Yunyi's order, the guards were in high spirits.
Everyone's eyes revealed excitement and they clenched the long swords in their hands.

At this time, the rebels had just stabilized their position.
He was planning to reorganize his troops and launch a new round of encirclement and suppression against the personal guards.

But before they could react, Feng Yunfang had already led his guards back onto the official road.
Like a black torrent, it rushed towards their rear.

The sound of horse hooves was like thunder, shaking the ground slightly.

When the rebels saw this sudden attack, their faces turned pale instantly.

"Turn around and look behind you!!"

More and more eyes were attracted by Feng Yunfang and others.
The warhorse that had just started stopped again and began to turn around with difficulty!
But at this moment, more than ten riders suddenly appeared on the official road!

The sun shines down from behind them, and in the eyes of the rebels,

Their clothes, swords and faces have all turned black, but they are particularly burly!

"There's more behind, behind!"

The group of people who had just turned around paused again.

But due to the previous chaos and casualties,
Their reaction speed was obviously much slower, and even the horses' heads began to collide.

Seeing this, Lu Yunyi raised the long sword in his hand:

"Brothers, charge to the front!"

"kill!!!"

Lu Yunyi took the lead, wielding the long sword in his hand with great vigor!
He charged into the enemy camp as if he were in an empty space, and each swing of his sword carried a tremendous force.

He chopped down the rebels who stood in his way.

The armor around his neck seemed to become fragile under his long sword and was unable to withstand his fierce attack.

The personal guards followed closely behind, moving freely among the enemy lines.

For a moment, the rear of the rebels fell into chaos, with screams and the sound of weapons clashing intertwined and echoing throughout the battlefield.

At the same time, Feng Yunfang led more than ten cavalry guards and went around to the rear of the rebels.

They quickly shuttled through the wheat fields and launched a fierce attack on the rebels from behind.

The rebels are attacked from all sides!
They panicked and fled in all directions, unable to organize any effective resistance.

Feng Yunfang and others took advantage of the situation, wielding long swords, and launched a frantic attack on the rebels.

At this time, the situation on the battlefield had changed dramatically.

The rebels suffered heavy casualties and their morale was low as they were attacked from both sides by the royal guards.

Their formation had completely collapsed and they could no longer organize effective resistance.

The battle formation of more than a hundred people is vulnerable at this moment!
"kill!"

Lu Yunyi shouted loudly.

His voice was like a loud bell, echoing across the battlefield.

When the guards heard his shout, their morale was greatly boosted!

The rebels were like frightened birds, frightened by the fierce killing of the guards.
They all ran away with their heads in their hands, unable to fight back.

Lu Yunyi led the charge, wielding his sword, blood splattered everywhere, and rebels continued to fall under his sword.

Just then, a burst of rapid and orderly horse hoof sounds came from a distance.

Lu Yunyi's heart trembled:
"alert!"

The guards immediately stopped what they were doing, quickly gathered together, and quickly distanced themselves!

They took up a defensive formation and looked vigilantly in the direction where the sound of horse hooves came from.

After a while, a team dressed in distinctive armor and in neat formation appeared in everyone's sight.

The leading general rode a tall black horse, wearing a silver cloak, looking majestic.

He saw the tragic scene on the battlefield, frowned slightly, and then shouted:
"Array up!"

Teams of soldiers armed with bows, crossbows and shields emerged from behind their horses.
Shield in front, crossbow behind!
The sun was shining down, and countless bright spots suddenly appeared on the official road!
Lu Yunyi glanced over and saw that they were calm and their steps were in step.

Completely different from the previous rebels who disguised themselves as city defense forces.

He might be the real city defense army, so he looked at Feng Yunfang.

Feng Yun immediately understood, took out the loudspeaker and said loudly:

"This is Lord Lu, the Crown Prince's guest, the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Works, the Deputy Commander of Daning, the Commander of Xincheng Guards, and the General of Zhaowu!

These people are rebels pretending to be the city defense forces, intending to ambush us!

Who are you? Come and see me quickly! "
