The importance of the thumb is self-evident.
Without his thumb, his right hand could no longer grip his weapon!
The Slav general, crippled to the sixth degree by Zhang Tian, felt his grief and indignation momentarily overwhelm his fear of the terrifying weapons outside the city.
I! The Great General of the Far East! Lingeppia Louski! I swear as a warrior, I will fight the enemy outside the city to the death!
I will not rest until this revenge is taken! I swear not to be human!
After a lengthy tirade, he looked at the two deputy generals supporting him.
Blubobubusuki! Brunobubusuki!
Present, General Lingeppia!
I order you two to lead five thousand knights from the city, charge the enemy, and crush them!
With their flesh and blood, bear witness to our conquest of this land after traveling thousands of miles! Lingeppia Louski, clutching his severed finger on his right hand, veins bulging on his face, roared hysterically at his two deputy generals.
Ura!
Blubobubusuki and Brunobubusuki responded with resolute affirmation.
Then they turned and descended the city wall, gathered their respective knights, and assembled within the city gates.
On my command, open the city gates and attack!
Creak, creak, creak!
The heavy wooden gates were slowly opened, and five thousand knights, following behind the two, charged out of the city. They quickly formed a charging formation and galloped towards the Tianhuo Army.
As they charged, they collectively shouted: Ura! Ura! Ura!
Shouting?
Duke, these fellows truly fear no death!
Standing by Fang Er, awaiting the next order after a round of firing, Luo Ben looked at the cavalry charging out of the city with disdain.
If they don't fear death, why are you still standing there?
Give them a send-off!
Fang Er, seated on his horse, pointed his lollipop at the approaching cavalry, which was picking up speed.
Yes!
Luo Ben rejoiced and ran back to the artillery position.
The artillery position was three li away from the small city. The charging warhorses would take at least three minutes, and during that time, they could be sent to heaven!
All guns in position! Target the cavalry ahead, free fire!
Prepare!
Fire!
Before Luo Ben even reached the artillery position, he had already shouted the command loudly.
Receiving the order, the artillery crews of each battery quickly adjusted their muzzles. Fuses were already installed on the shells, which were slid into the barrels one by one.
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!
Screeeech, screech, screech!
In an instant, the whistling of shells in the air was continuous, drawing parabolic trajectories through the air as they descended upon the charging cavalry.
Boom, boom, boom, boom!
Sukabule!
Oh, mama!
Suka!
The shells landed in the middle of the cavalry formation, instantly causing men and horses to fall. Exclamations and coarse Russian curses came from the mouths of the wounded.
Within five hundred meters of the artillery position, more than three thousand of the five thousand cavalry were wiped out!
Only one of the two "Skis" remained.
Brunobubusuki was instantly reduced to ashes by three consecutive shell explosions nearby.
Blubobubusuki had both his arms severed by flying shrapnel, and he lay on the ground with the carcass of his warhorse on top of him.
Blood gushed from his wounds and from his nose and mouth, transforming him into a human fountain.
Lingeppia Louski on the city wall was jolted awake by this series of explosions.
The thunderous sounds and the brilliant fireworks that reaped Slav lives were a chilling reenactment of what had happened by the Volga River!
Lingeppia Louski, after a brief moment of clarity, descended into madness.
Guards! Drag out all the slaves herded in the city!
I will lead you out!
Ura!
The terrified soldiers behind him, hearing the command, seemed to find a leader and quickly ran down the city wall to relay his orders.
Houses within the city were opened one by one.
Countless Xiongnu and Mohe people were dragged out with their hands bound.
Zhang Tian, in his hot air balloon, quickly scanned the city with his telescope for the people and defenders of Fuyu City.
But after searching, he could not determine who was a civilian and who was a defender.
They all had black hair, and if the defenders were robbed of their uniforms and put on civilian clothes, they were indistinguishable from the outside.
He quickly notified Fang Er via walkie-talkie.
Duke, these beasts in the city are preparing to use civilians as shields!
It's estimated that there are no less than twenty thousand captured civilians! Some of them might even be our brothers from the Fuyu City guard!
Fang Er cursed them for their shamelessness upon hearing this information.
These sons of bitches are trying to use this method to break through our battle formations?
Looking out at the city, the cavalry now numbered less than a thousand, all of them staring blankly at their surroundings.
Then they began to flee in all directions.
It was too terrifying!
There were scattered limbs everywhere, as if they were in hell!
At this moment, Lingeppia Louski had already driven the captives out of the city gates. He abandoned his horse and mixed in with the captives with his men.
Looking at the dark, dense crowd, Fang Er smiled.
These old Russians, with their dirty blonde hair, stood out starkly amidst the black-haired Asian crowd!
All units fall back!
Fang Er waved his hand and led his troops to slowly withdraw along the mountain path.
His reaction made Lingeppia Louski overjoyed. As expected, the natives here were too cowardly to fire on their own countrymen!
Thus, he continued to herd the captives and pursued Fang Er.
On the battlefield, Blubobubusuki, who was still alive, saw Lingeppia Louski pass by and quickly shouted for help.
Lingeppia!
Louski, give me a ride!
Save me!
In the chaotic crowd, Lingeppia Louski not only failed to notice his plea but also stepped directly on him.
Blubobubusuki's eyes widened in disbelief as he watched the foot stepping over him.
At that moment, he heard the sound of his testicles shattering!
Suffering from excessive blood loss, he was hit with a pain that no man could endure, and died on the spot!
Watching the crowd chasing behind him, Fang Er's formation had some personnel disappear without them noticing.
Blubobubusuki also failed to notice all of this!
The Slavs from Europe had no idea about the wisdom of not entering a forest lightly!
The mountain path, several meters wide, stretched both their formations out.
At some point, Fang Er had led a company and scattered themselves among the large trees by the roadside.
Squatting on a branch, Fang Er looked at the crowd on the road below, pulled out a pistol, aimed at a head with blonde hair below, and suddenly pulled the trigger.
That person was less than ten meters away from the tree where Fang Er was. At such close range, Fang Er clearly saw the blood splattering from the back of the man's head, a truly spectacular sight!
