The speed of the horse galloping was extremely fast, and there was no time left for the commander to think about it, and the result had already come out.
Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize, who were riding amber horses, tugged at the reins in front of the battle formation formed by the barbarians. Overwhelmed the barbarians who were most closely arranged on the outermost side of the battle formation, fell directly to the empty inner side, and then charged all the way there.
As for the other Great Xia cavalry, they surrounded the barbarian battle formation and killed the barbarian who was too busy turning his head to look at the center of the battle formation and neglected to guard against them. The officers meet.
Such an unimaginable operation made the barbarian commander stunned for a while. Who would have thought that two Great Xia cavalry would dare to charge directly into the barbarian army
The entire barbarian army was thrown into chaos by the mere two Great Xia cavalrymen, and they were devastated.
Some barbarians couldn't stand such uselessness, and after Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize rushed out of the battle formation, they couldn't help but ran after them. After being discovered by Cheng Huaiqian, they turned their horses around and killed them again.
The barbarians who were dazzled by their anger remembered that the personal combat effectiveness of the two leaders of the Great Xia cavalry was really strong, and the barbarians who were not large enough and not strong enough were purely looking for abuse against them.
Just when the barbarian commanders at all levels were yelling orders to gather the troops to prevent the next attack of the Great Xia cavalry, Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize led the cavalry to stop not far from the barbarian battle formation, looked at the barbarian army but did not charge again immediately come over.
The distance between the two parties was less than a hundred meters, wide-eyed and wary of each other.
Then the barbarian army watched helplessly as Xia Ruize took out his long bow and began to draw the bow and set arrows at them. Xia Ruize's killing targets were very clear, which were the leaders of the ordinary barbarians who were in charge of commanding the ordinary barbarians in battle.
In fact, there are not many big bosses left in the barbarian army. When the little barbarian chief dispatched the command before, he clearly felt that the order was not conveyed smoothly.
And Xia Ruize's goal is to completely cut off the middle-level command of the barbarians.
Bosses, big and small, can hardly resist Xia Ruize's bow and arrows, and they must pounce at most three arrows.
The two sides stood at the same spot for more than ten minutes. The little barbarian leader really felt sorry for his subordinates who kept falling, but he didn't dare to order the large army to retreat directly, so he had to order all the barbarians to face the direction of the Great Xia cavalry and slowly move towards South retreated.
When the barbarians first retreated, the Great Xia cavalry did not move. After the barbarians withdrew for two minutes and moved tens of meters to the south, a group of Great Xia cavalry suddenly moved and galloped towards the barbarian army. Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize split up The six cavalry were divided into two groups, encircling the barbarian army.
The retreat of the barbarian army could not help but stop immediately, making preparations to defend against the Great Xia cavalry.
Just like that, the barbarians didn't move, the Daxia cavalry didn't move, only Xia Ruize kept shooting.
As soon as the barbarians moved, the Great Xia cavalry came to attack immediately. If the barbarians formed a tight defense, the cavalry would only circle around the formation and shoot crossbow arrows.
This cycle went on and on, and the progress of the barbarian army's southward retreat was seriously hindered, almost moving forward at a distance of tens of meters.
The barbarian army couldn't figure it out from top to bottom, why were they forced to such a point by just a dozen Daxia cavalry
But the reality is, let them chase, they can't catch up with the Great Xia cavalry, let them run, they can't outrun the Great Xia cavalry, except for being constantly disturbed and attacked, there is nothing they can do about these Great Xia cavalry! What made Man even more desperate was that the two leaders of the Great Xia cavalry were too powerful, and there was no way for the high-level barbarians to go together, and the barbarian army was completely restrained.
For a whole afternoon, after leaving behind the corpses of more than 300 compatriots, the barbarian army finally completed the distance that took more than two hours to run in the morning.
It was getting dark, but the barbarians cheered up because they were getting closer to the camp.
The barbarian army simply gave up fighting back and ran towards the camp with all their heart. If the markers on the roadside are correct, they will be able to go home soon!
Seeing the uncontrollable smiles on the faces of some barbarians, Cheng Huaiqian couldn't help laughing, hoping that the barbarian friends would like the surprise he and Xia Ruize prepared for them.
Of course, for the barbarians, joy is definitely not there, but surprise is definitely there, and there are too many of them!
When they found the markers they saw when camping the night before, and realized that the camp was not far away, but they didn't see the camp at all, the barbarians who ran at the front already had an ominous premonition in their hearts, so they went even more frantically. Go where the camp should be.
Then, the hopeful barbarians saw the camp that had been burned to ashes. Looking up, the ashes and debris all over the ground were not even more than half a meter high!
Gone... all gone!
The camp is gone, the food is gone, and even life is almost gone...
Exhausted from running all day, the barbarians have worked so hard to support the belief that they must go back to the camp. The belief is that they will be safe after returning to the camp, and they can eat and drink enough to take a good rest. But the reality tells them that all this It's all delusional!
The camp is gone, where is the safety at all? What's more, they were dizzy with hunger, and they didn't even want to eat a mouthful of dry food!
The strong belief collapsed suddenly, and many barbarians who were extremely tired and hungry no longer cared about the Great Xia cavalry, and lay down on the ground and then stopped moving, as if they were dead.
Looking at the ruins in front of him and the large number of fallen subordinates behind him, the little barbarian leader's eyes were bleeding with hatred, but he couldn't help feeling frustrated and powerless.
The remaining high-level barbarians fully realized that the task of the small group of Great Xia cavalry was to do everything possible to delay their marching progress, so as to leave time for the camp to destroy and slow down their arrival at Bianlu City.
After getting extremely angry, the little barbarian leader gave the order bitterly, didn't the damn Great Xia cavalry not want them to go to Bianlu City? They want to go at once! Isn't there no camp? That's right, let's go now, hurrying all night!
As long as the remaining 700 or so barbarians gather closely together, do not give the Great Xia cavalry a chance to attack the army, step back step by step facing the Great Xia cavalry, and help each other resist the arrow attack, the little leader will not believe it, and he can't handle it like this Harassment by a dozen cavalrymen.
The idea of the little leader is good, but because of the lack of big and small leaders as a transit point for conveying orders, it took some time for the order of the little barbarian leader to reach every barbarian soldier. It took some time to be forcibly picked up by the little leader's personal guards one by one. When everything was ready and the barbarian army was ready to rush to Bianlu City overnight, when the little leader's plan was implemented, a lure suddenly floated in the air. Pretty meaty.
The eyes of all the barbarian warriors looked uncontrollably at the small hill not far away, where the Great Xia cavalry lit a huge fire, and on the fire, several skewers made of sticks were roasted. Fat bunny.
Xia Ruize took out the seasoning given to them by the middle-aged chef, and sprinkled it on the rabbit meat as if free of money. As a result, the roasted rabbit meat became even more fragrant, and the meat smell drifted to the barbarian camp along the breeze.
The barbarians had been hungry for a whole day, and their stomachs that were so hungry that they lost consciousness were instantly activated and struggled to death. Therefore, the sounds of desperately smelling and swallowing saliva continued one after another, and the protests from the stomach after being stimulated became more and more continuous. After eating a piece, most of the barbarians had only one thought in their minds: Hungry, meat!
The few barbarians whose eyes were blackened by starvation didn't care about other things at all. Filling their stomachs, the first requirement for survival, overwhelmed everything else, and they walked uncontrollably towards the big summer camp on the hillside.
The other barbarians just watched helplessly as several barbarians walked towards the fire of the Great Xia cavalry first, and even the little leader's personal guards didn't bother to stop them.
The wanton insults and ridicules of the Great Xia cavalry floated along the breeze, but these voices drifted away with the wind after spinning around in the ear, and could not arouse the anger of the barbarians at all. It was one of the Great Xia cavalry that really attracted the attention of all the barbarians They actually tore off a piece of rabbit meat from the fat rabbit and threw it far away to the barbarians who were close to them.
The barbarian who was walking in the front immediately rushed over like crazy, picked up the piece of rabbit meat from the ground, didn't care whether it was dirty or hot, and stuffed it into his mouth with all his strength, and immediately, his mouth was full of the smell of meat. The barbarian swallowed it before he could chew it a few times, because other barbarians had rushed to try to snatch it from his mouth.
The satisfaction of being filled in the stomach made the barbarian couldn't help but smile, and also stimulated the surrounding barbarians who didn't get the meat, rushing to the fire of the Great Xia cavalry.
The barbarians, who had been suppressed for a whole day, were infecting each other with crazy emotions. All of a sudden, most of the ordinary barbarian warriors went crazy. They didn't even care about the order to march towards Bianlu City, and rushed towards the place where the Great Xia Knights were. past.
Cheng Huaiqian waved his hand, and each of the cavalry under his command immediately got on his horse and fled the fire with a torch and a branch covered with rabbit meat. Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize also roasted the rabbit with the branch in one hand and illuminated it with the torch in the other, and rode away slowly on horseback.
The cavalry dispersed and evacuated individually. The same thing is that they all evacuated northward.
As a result, the barbarians who rushed over with the last bit of strength followed the Great Xia cavalry and ran to the north again uncontrollably.
Both Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize clearly felt that their food intake was getting bigger and bigger in the past two days, that is to say, the better the basic physical fitness, the more energy they need, and the more food they eat.
They are like this, let alone the barbarians who have grown tall and strong since childhood, they have long been used to the daily life of eating a lot.
If it weren't for the huge demand for food, the barbarians wouldn't go to Daxia to plunder food every autumn, because they didn't have enough food reserves, and they really couldn't survive the cold winter. Only when the northern region warms up every summer can the barbarians be self-sufficient in food.
The barbarian high-level leaders used the accumulated food to provide the barbarian army with a few full meals, and then used the inexhaustible food as long as they hit the cities of Daxia to stimulate the hunger. In winter, the enthusiasm of the barbarians who finally recalled the feeling of fullness in the war.
This excuse is as effective as hanging a piece of fat fresh meat in front of a hungry wolf that has been hungry for a winter. The blood of the barbarians is stimulated and the fighting spirit is full.
But who would have thought that their advance troops would encounter two demons, Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize
Not to mention burning the food and grass of the army, dragging the barbarian army without a drop of water to fight for a whole day, the consumption of the barbarians is far beyond expectations, and there is no rest to replenish, even if the barbarians are really forced to travel overnight, it will not be too late. You must be able to go to Bianlu City.
But Cheng Huaiqian would not let them go south.
I saw Cheng Huaiqian smugly shaking the roasted rabbit in his hand, controlling the horse to run forward in small steps, he took a bite of roast meat from time to time, deliberately pretending to be happy and content, the torch in his hand was not actually for lighting his way, It was to show the way for the barbarians so that they could see him. This performance made the eyes of the barbarians behind him bloodshot.
New hatred and old hatred struck together, at this moment, the person they most wanted to die in their hearts officially became Cheng Huaiqian.
Is Cheng Huaiqian so bad
No, he could be worse.
