Chapter 50 It Turns Out that Everything Was Part of the Adults’ Plan!
"Oh?"
Lin Chen smiled when he heard this.
Mu Guiying thought Lin Chen would reject her proposal.
Who would have thought.
Lin Chen actually nodded in agreement.
"Wei Cheng, follow Deputy General Mu out of the camp and chase the defeated army!"
"Yes!"
When Wei Cheng and other lieutenants heard this, there was a hint of strangeness in their eyes.
But at this time, Mu Guiying was a little excited and did not notice this subtle change in expression.
"Kill!"
Amid the deafening shouts of killing, tens of thousands of soldiers rushed out of the military camp and attacked the White Lotus bandits under the command of the lieutenants.
The morale of the White Lotus army, which was still able to maintain itself under the attack of 3,000 soldiers under Yang Zhi's command, plummeted.
If they didn't run now, they would have to stay and wait for death.
The White Lotus army was immediately defeated, and everyone only wished that their parents had given them two less legs.
Mu Guiying wore a bright red armor, and with the horse specially given by Li Zhao, she rushed into the White Lotus Sect's defeated army faster than Yang Zhi.
Lin Chen looked at Mu Guiying's figure with interest, and was amazed.
Here, Mu Guiying was enjoying the killing.
The depression in her heart during this period was completely dissipated.
However.
Mu Guiying was shocked to find that there were no soldiers around her.
Mu Guiying turned her head subconsciously to look behind her, and her expression under the evil ghost mask was extremely wonderful.
Just look at Yang Zhi and his group, they almost had the words "slacking off" written on their faces.
They led the soldiers and looked back every three steps, as if they were ready to run away at any time.
Buzz!
Suddenly.
A horn sounded in Lin Chen's camp.
Hearing this, Yang Zhi and Wei Cheng moved more quickly.
At the same time.
The fat and thin monks who were observing the battlefield situation in a dense forest frowned.
"There are a few fierce generals among the officers and soldiers."
"Look at the general in red clothes and red armor, wearing a ghost mask, isn't he Lin Chenjia?"
"Tsk tsk, a first-class warrior, it must be Lin Chenjia!"
"Quickly inform the Holy Envoy that Lin Chenjia has taken the bait!"
Just look.
In this dense forest, a group of White Lotus soldiers with obviously different spirits are putting on armor and mounting horses.
Woo woo woo!!!
At this moment.
Mu Guiying suddenly heard a military call from the dense forest on all sides.
Huh? !
Before Mu Guiying could react, she saw thousands of armored cavalrymen rushing out from the forest on both sides, with extraordinary momentum!
After the cavalry, there were countless soldiers in neat armor shouting to follow.
This scene made Mu Guiying's eyes shrink suddenly.
This is a trap? !
"Retreat, retreat quickly..."
Mu Guiying originally had some regrets in her heart.
Who would have thought.
Just look at Yang Zhi and his gang. After hearing the noise, they immediately led their troops to retreat.
Now, Mu Guiying understood.
No wonder these guys just worked but didn't work hard.
Could it be that they were instructed by someone?
While Mu Guiying was angry, she was also shocked by Lin Chen's judgment.
"Could it be that he knew there was an ambush?"
When Mu Guiying turned back to the camp, this thought flashed through her mind.
Lin Chen looked at the soldiers pouring out from all directions, his eyes slightly cold.
The White Lotus rebels actually have cavalry? !
You know, in ancient times, cavalry was not just a horse for the other side to ride on.
From a certain perspective, cavalry is also a high-tech branch of the army.
The money required to train one can catch up with ten infantrymen.
However.
The movement of the cavalry charge also made Lin Chen's eyes flash with a strange color.
The momentum is like a torrent, as if it can break through all obstacles.
Although Lin Chen is an acquired master, he does not want to face the charging cavalry on the plain.
"If it is equipped with heavy armor and horse armor, the heavy cavalry formed..."
In ancient times, light cavalry was the protagonist of the battlefield.
After all, heavy cavalry is expensive and has many restrictions.
However, the power of heavy cavalry charging is also devastating.
However, the current situation does not allow Lin Chen to think too much.
"Open the gate of the camp."
Lin Chen said, asking Yang Zhi and others to lead the army back to the camp.
However, Lin Chen frowned slightly as he looked at the cavalry chasing closely.
Especially the cavalry general who was charging in front, with a majestic momentum.
Judging from the opponent's posture, he was going to rush into the camp.
Lin Chen pursed a sneer at the corner of his mouth and took out an arrow from the archer's quiver beside him.
Whoosh!
Puff!
The arrow that pierced the cavalry general's face made him fall off the horse in despair, and then was crushed into meat paste by countless horse hooves.
Sure enough.
Lin Chen's arrow made the White Lotus Cavalry lose momentum.
"Shoot!"
The archers who had been waiting on the wall of the village bent their bows and drew their arrows.
The sparse arrows were shot at the cavalry that rushed straight at them.
It had no effect.
Seeing this, Lin Chen turned and walked down the wall of the village and gave orders.
"Retreat and abandon the camp here."
Behind the cavalry, there were 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers following them.
With the opponent's momentum of a tiger coming down the mountain, Lin Chen felt that there was no need to fight the opponent head-on.
So.
Before Mu Guiying could react.
The army retreated again.
Lin Chen chose to abandon this camp and retreat.
"The government troops have fled!"
"The government troops have fled!"
The White Lotus thieves who found the army retreating cheered loudly.
"Keep chasing!"
Only.
The man who was honored as the Holy Envoy had a gloomy expression.
On the other hand, the fat and thin Toutuo beside him looked cheerful.
"Holy Envoy, great victory!"
"Yes, those officers and soldiers are really vulnerable."
The two of them started to sneer at each other.
But didn't see it.
His own holy envoy's face became increasingly ugly.
What kind of victory is this?
The officers and soldiers were obviously wary of the ambush by themselves and others, so they chose to withdraw their troops.
I just hope that by taking advantage of the momentum of victory and pursuit, the officers and soldiers can turn from retreat to rout.
Thinking of this, the Holy Envoy drove his horse to follow.
However.
When the Holy Envoy saw this group of imperial officers and soldiers retreating into the same camp as before, his expression completely changed.
"onslaught!"
Just look at countless White Lotus Sect soldiers holding ladders and excitedly starting to attack the stronghold.
The arrows blocked the horses, and the trapped iron caltrops caused the White Lotus priests to lose hundreds of people before they approached the gate of the village.
After another period of fighting.
Suddenly I heard someone shouting in surprise.
"The officers and soldiers were defeated again!"
"The officers and soldiers were defeated again!"
This time, in order to retreat, the officers and soldiers actually lit a fire in the camp.
When the Holy Envoy saw this, his face showed joy.
"Put out the fire and continue the pursuit!"
After half an hour of tossing.
When the holy envoy who followed closely looked at the camp that appeared again in front of him, he fell into silence.
at the same time.
Even the White Lotus priests who had high morale were also silent.
The holy envoy suddenly thought of something and his face changed slightly.
"not good!"
As the saying goes.
Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted.
Lin Chen stretched out his hand to take a point steel gun and said indifferently: "Open the village gate and follow me to kill the thief!"
Yang Zhi, Wei Cheng and others were eager to give it a try and looked at Lin Chen with awe.
turn out to be.
All this is part of my master’s plan!
really.
After Lin Chen led his army out of the stronghold, the Holy Envoy shrank his eyes and tightened his grip on the reins.
The White Lotus priests who had been chasing them all had a tired look on their faces.
Look at the other side.
Even though I have been running away for so long, I am still waiting for work!
