Chapter 106 The Yanhuang Army Makes its Debut
More than two hundred people blocked the street outside the Cheng family's house, surrounding Su Luo, Zhang Daqiang, and others.
The sheer number of people was enough to chop Su Luo into mincemeat.
Ye Changfeng frowned, "Brother Su Luo, don't be impulsive..."
Su Luo calmly said, "I wasn't acting impulsively!"
He lowered his voice slightly, "This...is actually a good opportunity!"
Looking into his deep eyes, Ye Changfeng felt a slight flutter in his heart, and then his eyes widened!
Xie Changming couldn't hold back any longer and roared, "Ye Changfeng, if you don't move aside, don't blame me for being impolite!"
"I am the mayor of Feixia Town. How can I tolerate an outsider like him committing such a violent act on the streets of Feixia Town? Where is my dignity?!"
Su Luo sneered, "Then let's fight!"
"Daqiang, do it!"
Zhang Daqiang laughed loudly, "Okay!"
"Young master, let these people see our methods!"
"Do it!"
Whizzing!
The group of men brought by Zhang Daqiang immediately pulled the bowstrings of their composite crossbows! The sound of arrows piercing the air filled the air!
Moreover, this time they didn't just fire one arrow, they fired it in quick succession!
A volley of arrows shot out at incredible speed, sweeping across the surrounding soldiers of Feixia Town! Like streaks of black lightning!
The soldiers of Feixia Town were caught completely off guard. They had never encountered arrows that were so fast and so incredibly powerful!
Therefore, it was just a fleeting moment!
The soldiers on the innermost layer, those closest to Su Luo, all fell to the ground! Screams and wails rang out one after another!
"Ah—what is this?!"
"Such a powerful weapon, it hurts so much, it's so fast..."
"My leg is ruined! Old Niu, Old Niu, what happened to you? Oh no, Old Niu has been shot in the neck with an arrow and is dead!"
In just a moment, more than fifty soldiers from Feixia Town had died! And more than fifty were wounded!
In other words, Su Luo's men only needed one volley of arrows to reduce the fighting capacity of the soldiers in Feixia Town by more than half!
Moreover, everyone else became afraid upon seeing this, and their previous swagger vanished instantly, with them all starting to retreat!
Xie Changming's eyes widened in shock, and his expression changed drastically.
His gaze fell on Su Luo, and he began to feel afraid. No wonder Su Luo had remained so calm... The weapon in his hand was terrifying!
At this moment, Xie Changming truly regretted his actions, but since things had come to this, he could only force himself to shout, "We can't back down!"
"Anyone who retreats will be dealt with according to military law! They'll all die anyway!"
"Don't panic, everyone! They've started putting down those strange weapons, so they must be out of arrows. Charge! If we charge now, we're sure to win!"
The group behind Zhang Daqiang did indeed lower their crossbows! However, it wasn't that they were out of bolts. Rather, it was because they wanted to demonstrate their strength to Su Luo!
Clang!
At that moment, they drew their longswords made of tempered steel! They gleamed in the sunlight!
Zhang Daqiang approached Su Luo and, suppressing his excitement, said, "Young Master, these people... were all elites in the garrison of Yunhai Town!"
"After passing my selection process and successfully undergoing our training methods, they are all privates first class! They can wield longswords made of tempered steel!"
Su Luo smiled slightly, remaining extremely calm, and said, "Then this is our... Yanhuang Army's first appearance!"
Su Luo was born in China in his previous life and transmigrated to this world, but his love for his country and people remains unchanged. Therefore, the troops under his command are collectively known as the Yanhuang Army!
Of course, at this stage, only privates are capable of being deployed for combat!
Su Luo was unwilling to let privates and sergeants also come out to fight, for one reason only: the potential of privates and sergeants had not yet been fully exploited!
They won't be equipped with the best gear!
However, it's different for privates; they use composite crossbows and longswords made of tempered steel!
Su Luo was also somewhat excited, as this was the Yanhuang Army's first public appearance! Their first real battle!
Although the scale is small and the number of people is also a great disadvantage!
Thirty or forty people have to face more than a hundred people!
However, the equipment completely overwhelms them... and their physical abilities are also overwhelmingly superior!
In this situation, how long would it take the Yanhuang Army to wipe out all the soldiers and officers of Feixia Town in the surrounding area, and...
Su Luo's eyes flashed like lightning as he looked at Xie Changming and said, "Daqiang, capture Xie Changming alive!"
"I need this person!"
Zhang Daqiang grinned, "Understood!"
With that, he picked up his longsword made of tempered steel and joined the battle!
Seeing that the "Yanhuang Army" had indeed abandoned the composite crossbow and used long swords to fight the enemy, the soldiers of Feixia Town who originally wanted to retreat suddenly brightened up and rushed forward with their weapons!
Xie Changming breathed a sigh of relief. After all, they had a numerical advantage, and as long as their equipment was roughly equal...
Bang!
The moment this thought crossed his mind, his eyes widened as if he had seen a ghost! He saw that the standard-issue longsword of the Great Xia Dynasty in the hands of his own soldiers had been cut in half by the enemy's longsword!
Moreover, the soldier closest to him had his head chopped off and rolled at his feet!
Blood! Crimson!
Xie Changming's legs went weak, but his instincts told him he couldn't stay any longer! The group of people around Ye Changfeng were not normal!
"Find someone, go find someone..." Xie Changming looked at his deputy beside him, preparing to call for reinforcements.
Before the deputy could speak, his head flew off, and blood gushed out, landing on Xie Changming.
Xie Changming almost vomited. Seeing Zhang Daqiang grinning as he walked towards him, he had lost all his previous toughness and knelt down in front of Zhang Daqiang with a thud.
"No, don't kill me, I was wrong..."
Zhang Daqiang grabbed him by the back of the head and led him step by step through the crowd to Su Luo.
"If you have something to say, speak to my young master!"
"Whether you live or die is entirely up to my young master's word!"
Su Luo looked at the "battlefield" and saw the Yanhuang Army dealing with the soldiers of Feixia Town with ease!
Su Luo initially thought that with such a large difference in numbers, there might still be losses.
As a result, within minutes, all the soldiers in Feixia Town were killed! Meanwhile, the Yanhuang Army suffered no casualties!
A smile appeared on Su Luo's lips. "The effect is good!"
He was very satisfied. Although there weren't many privates first class, the results were beyond his expectations!
If we had three thousand privates, we could set up a special unit right away!
No, even with only a thousand privates, they could directly attack a town... Of course, this is assuming that the garrisons in other towns don't provide timely support!
"Young master, young master, I was wrong, please forgive me, I'll agree to anything you ask if you let me go..."
Xie Changming was kowtowing to Su Luo repeatedly, looking like he was begging for mercy.
