The only way to win was to charge out and fight in close combat.
Jeang Pong s voice trembled as he spoke trying his best to sound more confident but he couldn't team manage it just thinking about the crossbow outside continuously firing at his city gates left him unsteady on his feet and even considered going out when he said that humans can be such foolish creatures sometimes even though he knew very well that staying cooped up meant certain death he was terrified he couldn't he do it at that moment Jeang Pong was completely unable to overcome his fear of death.
Even though he knew it was a dead end, he preferred to pin his hopes on others while curling up in a corner, trembling, praying in his heart that a lightning bolt would suddenly strike down, turning that crossbow and hopefully the surrounding enemy troops into a pile of charred remains.
This ridiculous wish was clearly not going to come true.
Looking at Jong Pong, who was cowering and trembling in the corner, Luing s eyes flashed with disappointment.
He then tightened his grip on his stone ax and shield, shouting loudly, "Brothers, in the current situation, doing nothing and hiding here is no way to survive.
Rather than waiting to die here, let us charge out and fight.
Maybe we can carve out a path to survive.
Those willing to fight, follow me out.
" As soon as Lu Ming finished speaking, perhaps it was a coincidence, but after enduring another heavy crossbow bolt s bombardment, the already overburdened city gate finally collapsed completely.
He didn't he look back, or rather, he didn't he dare to look back, fearing that the despair and terror emanating from behind would swallow the courage he had so painstakingly gathered.
Taking a step forward, seizing the gap between two attacks from the triple bow crossbow, Luang charged out with full resolve.
Chapter 195.
Overthinking and foresight.
Wow.
There are actually people daring to charge out.
Staring at the collapsed city gate in the distance.
Lu OG squinted his eyes.
His tone carrying a hint of surprise.
And there was more than one.
I have to say this really caught him off guard.
Military equipment like the triple bow crossbow, which is akin to a siege cannon, not only has astonishing destructive power, but also serves the purpose of demoralizing the defending soldiers.
Listening to the deafening roar and watching the city gate and wall that he relied on being instantly shredded by the incoming heavy crossbow bolts.
The shock in that moment could definitely deal a devastating blow to the morale of the defending troops.
Even some of the more timid individuals must have been scared out of their wits by now, right? Lu G could easily imagine the pitiful sight of them huddled in a corner, holding their heads in their hands and trembling in fear.
Many modern people as hearts are hollow and fragile, fighting back with all their might.
That doesn't he exist? Those fools who only dare to shout when they are in a safe environment.
What can they do when true fear and despair descend? He, who had nearly stepped into the gates of hell once, understood this better than anyone else? The hellish scenes were still vivid in his memory.
collapsed buildings, cries of anguish, the mingling of smoke and blood, the air filled with particulate matter that filled his lungs, and the images of those crying out for help.
Powerless and huddled in corners, praying for a miracle were all clear in his mind.
He let out a heavy sigh, rubbing his brow.
This really brought back some unpleasant memories.
looking up at the group of figures charging closer in the distance.
He didn't he dislike it, but disliking it or not, war was another matter entirely.
When it came to dealing with enemies, he would not show mercy.
With that thought, Lu G leisurely blew the whistle in his hand.
Accompanied by the sound of the whistle, a small squad of cavalry suddenly charged out from the right rear position.
Except for occasional whims, Lu G was always someone who liked to think things through before acting.
He preferred to have a long-term perspective rather than just focusing on what was immediately in front of him.
Of course, this approach once it miscalculates would be described as overthinking and many fools might mistake it for stupidity.
However, once he was proven right, that overthinking would turn into foresight.
As it stood, he was still within the realm of foresight.
What is going on? How could there be an ambush behind us? Lu Ming who was at the front had a face full of disbelief.
That place certainly didn't te have any ambush troops originally.
It was just that when Lu G first arrived, he ordered the soldiers controlling the triple bow crossbow to destroy the enemy's watchtowwer with a heavy crossbow bolt so that they couldn't see what was happening outside the ancient city wall.
This tactic served to further increase the psychological pressure on the enemy, demoralizing them, while also setting up this ambush, which was clearly coming into play now.
The galloping hoves instantly crushed several enemy soldiers who couldn't tea dodge in time and then charged straight at the leading Lu Ming.
Luing was not facing cavalry for the first time in previous battles.
He had encountered this type of troop several times.
So he was very aware of the shocking destructive power of cavalry at full speed.
Facing the charging cavalry, Luang halted his steps.
He knew that his legs could never outrun the war horses beneath them, and turning his back to flee would only lead to death.
Daring to face the cavalry charge head-on, this is interesting.
As this thought flashed through Lu OG's mind, his cavalry squad had already charged right in front of Lu Ming, taking advantage of the momentum generated by the warhor's full speed charge.
The cavalryman's long spears effortlessly sliced through the air, aiming for Luang.
The weak round shield could not possibly withstand such an attack.
Seeing that another soul was about to be added beneath the long spear at the critical moment, Luang moved.
He neatly sidestepped, avoiding the spear's attack, then suddenly lowered his body and swung the stone ax in his hand directly at the horse's leg.
If this axe hit, it would surely result in both horse and rider tumbling down.
And since Lu G's cavalry had limited training time, many of the cavalrymen's riding skills were not particularly good.
While they could charge in formation without issue, they lacked a bit of adaptability.
If the horse at the front fell, it would likely lead to a chain reaction crash.
Quite the idea, huh? Luog grinned, his expression carrying a hint of a smile because the opponent had chosen the wrong target.
In the blink of an eye, there was a crisp sound as the stone axe collided directly with a spearhead.
Watching the gleaming spearhead, Lu Ming's heart skipped a beat.
Who fired that shot? How could their reaction be so fast? Similar questions flashed through Lu Ming's mind.
And in the brief exchange, the opponent's displayed techniques and strength gave him a strong sense of crisis.
Indeed, he had chosen the wrong target.
That axe, had it landed on any other cavalryman, would have caught them off guard, but it was impossible for this one because the person sitting on the horse was named by blocking the attack.
Bise was not in a good mood and could even be said to be a bit frustrated.
Almost caught off guard and embarrassed in front of that annoying guy was something he absolutely could not tolerate.
At the same time, he and T expected that among this group of defeated soldiers, there would actually be someone with a bit of strength.
Just as the thought crossed his mind, the waror beneath continued charging forward without slowing down.
As the figures of both sides intertwined, Bise spread his arms and executed a reverse spear thrust, aimed directly at the unguarded back of Lu Ming.
Hearing the sound of the spear head slicing through the air, Lu Ming as heart jolted and the hairs on his body stood on end.
Without time to think, he executed a clumsy roll to evade.
Another thrust missed and Bise instinctively glanced at Lu G, who was standing at a distance watching the show.
The moment their eyes met, Lu G revealed a mocking expression as if saying, "Oh dear, how did you miss again?" This instantly caused a vein to pop on by Zay's forehead, and his gaze at Luang turned even more displeased.
Chapter 196.
The presence of a dominator surround him.
After the two sides crossed paths by Z decisively pulled on the reigns in his hand, turning his horse around a chargeback.
In fact, Lu G had not appointed him as the captain of this cavalry squad.
But Bise was the cavalry instructor of their tribe.
The other nine cavalry members in this squad were all trained by him and given his own strength.
It was easy for everyone to turn a blind eye to his sudden command.
The soldiers who had charged out earlier had all perished in the previous round of assault.
Faced with a lone Lu Ming, the returning cavalry squad easily surrounded him.
Then Baise and his horse quickly charged forward without any formal greeting, raising his spear filled with killing intent and directly stabbing towards Luang, initiating a new round of battle.
The two fierce warriors immediately engaged in combat.
The battle was not particularly intense, but it was exceptionally tense.
With the advantage of height from being on horseback, Baise's attack from above made it particularly difficult for Lu Ming to respond, and he was constantly being suppressed.
Yet, Lu Ming was tenacious and held on, making it hard for Bise to take him down in a short time.
After more than a dozen exchanges without a clear victor, Lu Ji couldn't help but sigh up.
Upon seeing this, Ba's temperament still needed some honing.
He had the strength, but his character was too easily agitated.
However, he completely overlooked one issue.
Baise's tendency to lose his cool was partly due to Lu G's presence watching whole time.
If Lu Gi were not there, Bise's composure would have been much steadier.
That's enough.
Lu G's voice sounded calm and unhurried.
