King Ruoqiang crossed the stone monument and walked forward for more than ten miles, and when he saw the mushroom-like tent in the valley after the rain, he immediately became excited.As a striker, the biggest advantage is that you can plunder first.Especially for these weak opponents with limited strength and limited property, plundering in front of everyone is simply the only thing to be happy about.With the same long journey, the striker can eat a piece of meat, but the rear army may not even be able to drink soup.King Ruoqiang immediately ordered preparations for battle, and sent scouts to climb high and look into the distance to check the terrain.He was pleased with the results, which was a very unfavorable location for an ambush.The place is spacious, and there is a distance of nearly three miles between the two mountain beams in the north and south, and it is impossible to plug such a large gap without 20,000 people.On the east side, however, the terrain is relatively narrow, and the number of people who can pass through it in a short period of time is limited.King Ruoqiang felt that he might have picked up a bargain, and accidentally broke into the rear of the other party.And the last king and others also thought the same, they were inexplicably excited, they sounded the trumpet to prepare for the war, and they even blushed for who to start the first wave of offensive.It seemed to them that there was no enemy worth mentioning at all, only a flock of lambs to the slaughter.This is certainly not the time to be polite, and whether this expedition can be worth the cost depends entirely on this battle.The sound of the horn echoed repeatedly, excited, and even a little excited.Liang Xiao sat on Mingzhu's back, looked at the enemy who was arrayed in the distance, and couldn't help but want to laugh.He turned his head to look at the panicked camp, and couldn't help but pout.A group of cowards who were frightened by the wolf, the wolf had not yet arrived, but there were only a few thousand forwards, and they were in chaos.Hopefully, Batu and March can stabilize their positions and become famous.After this battle, he was to move westward and control more areas, which were to be handed over to Batuu.To take on this important task, Batu must first prove his courage and strength.Batu understands this, too.Although he was nervous, he still stood in front of the formation with more than a hundred horsemen.Many of these knights were Aleusu's subordinates, although they were not the strongest ones, but they were people that Batu could trust, and they were also the best equipped, using Han army equipment.In the midst of the chaos, these people are his last reliance on victory or survival.Behind Batu were more than a thousand knights.Half of these knights are in armor, which is the best equipped force except for the knights under Liang Xiao's command.Half of them are the old members of the Yue Clan, and most of them have a pair of armor; Half of them were captives of other tribes, and very few had complete armor, most of them were still rudimentary leather armor, and even the shield in their hands was just a plank.However, this is already a rare powerful cavalry within a radius of three hundred miles, and the other tribes have more than three or five hundred people, less than one hundred and ten people, and even dozens of people, which can only be mixed together.Seeing the three or four thousand horsemen on the opposite side, many people were so frightened that their faces were colorless and trembling.If it weren't for Batu's arrangement for March to supervise the battle behind the formation, these people might have run away a long time ago.Batu was also nervous.But now, there is no way back for him.These people around him are the last strength of the Yue Clan east of the Green Ridge, and the land under his feet is also the last pasture of the Yue Clan east of the Green Ridge.Qilian Mountain is already the territory of the Han people, he can't even think about it, and now he can only seize this last opportunity as much as possible.Fortunately, Liang Xiao told him before the battle that he was not needed to be the main force in this battle, and Liang Xiao would personally defeat the invading enemy.All he had to do was to act calm, take the posture of a hero, and give the order to attack at the right time to expand the results of the battle.Batu had no choice but to hope that Liang Xiao could defeat the enemy and win the victory, and he could also take this opportunity to establish his prestige.Once again, he raised his clairvoyance and looked at the battlefield in the distance.The leaders of the tribes looked at him enviously.Aside from the Han generals, Batu was the only one who possessed an artifact like clairvoyance.This is enough to prove how close his relationship with the Han people is, and whoever wants to be unfavorable to him must first consider Liang Xiao behind him.Batu felt the envy of everyone, and his heart swelled with pride, and he was a little more calm.In the clairvoyance, the other party had already finished arranging, and more than two hundred horsemen rode out of the formation and galloped towards the depths of the valley.On the hillside on the north side, Liang Xiao raised his hand and gave the order to attack.The war drums sounded, the horns also sounded, and the battle flag of the Eagle Tribe waved, it should be Huang Ruo who led the army to attack.Batu smiled.He knew that in addition to him, Huang Ruo was a tribal leader that Liang Xiao trusted more.Without him, Huang Ruo would be the most ideal eastern leader of Nanshan.Because of him, no matter how good Huang Ruo's performance is, he can only give three points.This is the first to serve the reward.When he thought about it, Batu felt very proud.Huang Ruo didn't have the heart to think about these at the moment, he won the opportunity to fight, and he was determined to perform in front of Liang Xiao, leading more than 300 horsemen of his tribe to run down the hillside and meet the opponent.Everyone knows that this kind of tentative battle cannot affect the overall situation, but he must let Liang Xiao see his loyalty and courage, only in this way can he gain Liang Xiao's trust and reap greater benefits."
Kill" Huang Ruo stood up with his stirrup and raised his knife and shouted.The knights of the Eagle Tribe responded one after another, the war horses gradually increased, and the chaotic hooves gradually joined together and merged into one.The two sides were separated by more than 300 paces, and the archers began to build arrows and shoot continuously.They did not hedge head-on, but staggered about thirty or fifty paces, and tacitly chose the way they were most familiar with mounted archery.The strings buzzed, the arrows left the strings, rushed into the sky, drew an arc, and swooped down.At this time, almost all the knights did not care about protecting themselves, and even if they had a riding shield, they did not have time to raise it, so they could only secretly pray to God to protect them from being shot.The Han people not only brought sophisticated equipment, but also miraculous medical skills, and they did not use sorcerers to heal wounds, but specialized healers.As long as they don't hit the vital point, the Han healer has a chance to help them save their lives.The thought of those Han Chinese, who seemed to be omnipotent, added a little confidence to the knights of the Eagle Tribe, and they continued to shoot, shooting a rain of arrows into the opponent's formation, and at the same time withstanding the opponent's shots.When Huang Ruo supported Liang Xiao for a long time, he also got more than a dozen pairs of Han army armor.He placed all these knights on the far left of the position, facing them directly.With the protection of these armors, it is difficult for ordinary arrows to hit the vital points, and the survival rate will be greatly improved.With their cover, the losses of the Eagle Horde could be minimized.In a matter of moments, the two sides staggered.Nearly 100 people were hit by arrows and fell from their horses, some died on the spot, but many more were injured and wailing.The atmosphere on the battlefield suddenly became a little more miserable.Huang Ruo didn't have time to count them, just took a cursory glance and let out a long breath.His losses were relatively small, and he was already sure to win this battle.Without saying a word, he immediately ordered the trumpet to blow and turn back to fight again.His opponents did the same, turning their horses and charging at each other again.After two back and forth, the cumulative effect of the Eagle Tribe's numerical advantage and equipment advantage appeared, and only half of the opponents were still sitting on horseback, and many of them were hit by arrows and wounded, while the losses of the Eagle Tribes were very limited.Huang Ruo immediately decided to give up mounted archery and move a decisive melee battle.At the sound of an order, the knight of the Eagle Tribe put away his bow and arrows, drew his sword, raised his spear, and rushed towards his opponent.Seeing that the knights of the Eagle Tribe rushed over face to face, looking like they were fighting to the death, the morale that had already been frustrated suddenly collapsed, and many people subconsciously chose to avoid it.Seeing this scene, Huang Ruo was overjoyed, ordered to add again, and rushed out first.The knights equipped with the standard armor of the Han army quickly gathered around Huang Ruo and took on the important task of breaking the formation."
Kill", "kill" and "boom" The two armies met, Huang Ruo and a dozen knights beside him slashed left and right, and the sharp knives cut through the opponent's leather armor and the opponent's skin, leaving a series of killing marks.Blood splattered, which made them even more excited.The two sides were separated at the touch of a button, and before Huang Ruo could turn back, he heard the sound of war drums on the hillside.He couldn't help but laugh out loud.This must be Liang Xiao seeing the battle situation, cheering him on with drums and celebrating him.With victory in place, he turned his horse's head and looked back at the battlefield.The knights of the Eagle Tribe grabbed the reins, slowed down, and gathered around Huang Ruo.There was not much left of the opponent, and the rest of the people also fled, and they did not have the courage to turn back and fight.Huang Ruo raised his war knife and roared violently, his face flushed with excitement.The knights of the Eagle Tribe also raised their weapons excitedly and roared in unison.On the hillside, the drums beat loudly.In the distance, Batu put down his clairvoyance and laughed."
Blow the trumpet and cheer for Huang Ruo.The battle was won, and the victory was so easy, it was God bless the Han, God bless General Liang, God bless me, etc. ”The trumpeter immediately took a full breath and blew the horn.The soldiers of the various tribes in the array could not see the situation on the battlefield, but only knew that the two sides had already engaged in battle and were nervous.Hearing the sound of the horn, I knew that the Eagle Tribe had won, and I was relieved and celebrated happily with each other.On the opposite position, King Ruoqiang and the others had gloomy faces.Although it was only a small-scale temptation, they were surprised that they had lost so quickly and completely.Two hundred knights went out to fight, and only thirty or forty people came back alive, and the losses of the other party were negligible, the gap between the combat power of the two sides was so big, this is only the Qiang people who depended on the Han people, if the Han army went to war, how strong would they be, if those tribes were as strong as the Eagle tribe, they would have no chance of winning this battle.Unexpectedly, the stone tablet not far behind him resurfaced in the minds of countless people.If you advance, you will die, and if you retreat, you will live.Now that they have advanced here, can they leave alive The more King Ruoqiang thought about it, the more worried he became, and immediately ordered another battle.This time, he sent a thousand horsemen and ordered another thousand to stand by.Since the individual combat strength is invincible, there is only the advantage of waving troops, otherwise there will be no doubt about defeat.The sound of the horn sounded again, this time a little less excited, a little more tragic.Two thousand horsemen galloped out of battle formation from the left and right sides, one thousand horsemen rushed forward, and one thousand horsemen dragged back, stopping at a distance of three hundred paces from the main formation.Liang Xiao also gave an order.Xie Guanglong went into battle, followed by two hundred well-trained Qiang cavalry.They kicked their horses lightly, and their horses galloped down the hill with brisk steps, and quickly increased to meet the thousand horsemen who were galloping lightly.The formation they put on was different from the common formation of the Qiang people, it was not a long formation commonly used in cavalry archery, nor a sagittal formation or a geese marching formation, but a horizontal formation.The two hundred horsemen were divided into four rows, each with fifty horses, about ten paces apart from each other, and thirty or forty paces apart from each other.What is even more strange is that the knights in the front row did not take their bows and arrows, they flattened their spears, ran faster and faster, and rushed straight over.The 1,000 Qiang cavalry who met them were shocked, they had never encountered such an opponent before.What are they going to do, are they going to rush into battle, two hundred people are rushing into a thousand people, what is the difference between this and looking for death.Xie Guanglong and the others did not have such thoughts, they were full of confidence and rushed to kill without hesitation.Their horses galloped and crashed into the middle of the battle.The spear flew in, and the sharp spearhead easily pierced the opponent's armor and body with the gallop of the war horse, and stabbed the opponent off the horse.In a matter of moments, forty or fifty knights died.Immediately afterward, the second row of knights sped up, passed through the middle of the first row of knights, and crashed into the Qiang cavalry formation.The sound of the spear entering the body was endless, and one knight after another was stabbed by the spear, and fell off the horse with a scream.Without waiting for the Qiang knights to react, the third row of knights rushed in, like harvesting crops, and stabbed down dozens of Qiang riders again.Under everyone's gaze, the four rows of knights took turns to charge, and the turns-over impacted the Qiang people's formation, like a sledgehammer, smashing the Qiang people's heads fiercely, smashing the Qiang people's formation to pieces.They weren't very fast, and they didn't change any fancy changes, just a charge, piercing the spear in their hands into their opponent's body with precision.Compared to the charge of the Eagle Tribe knights, their charge was more fierce and more ruthless.They don't shout, they don't scream, they just kill in silence.The spear in his hand is like a soul messenger, and every time he strikes, it will stir up a blood flower.After a few glasses of wine, the two sides disengaged.Xie Guanglong raised his spear and reined in his horse.All the knights raised their spears and restrained their horses.Spears like a forest.Even if you don't look at the knights and horses, just at the spears that line up in rows, you know that their losses are minimal.But the battlefield behind them was littered with corpses, countless Qiang knights fell in pools of blood, and the surviving knights rode their horses into the distance, and ran six or seven hundred steps before stopping, turning their horses' heads, and looking into the distance in horror, as if they wanted to see who the opponent was and why it was so terrifying.Seeing this contrasting scene, Batu was even more excited.He clenched his fists hard and shouted: "Pick and blow the trumpet, help for Captain Xie Du, help our warriors" The passionate horn sounded again, echoing over the battlefield, and could not be calmed down for a long time:
