At the beginning, I gave up my military power with a cup of wine, and I ascended the throne

Chapter 267 Raid on the Northern Wei Camp
The first one rushed out from the army of Xiliang Iron Cavalry, holding a large banner, and stood up on the horse's back, galloping towards Shuoyin City.

"The general of Pingxi has arrived."

The messenger shouted, and two more riders rushed out, also holding large banners. They separated at the south gate of Shuoyin City, each holding a large banner, and went to the east and west gates.

"It's the Xiliang Iron Cavalry."

Many people put down their bows and crossbows and whispered to each other.

The burly Jizhou warrior climbed up the city wall with a dry sword slung over his shoulder. Immediately, the defenders on the city wall all shut their mouths and dared not make any noise.

"come yet?"

This brave general looked at the dark mass of Xiliang cavalry under the city with a stern expression.

"Rumble"

Under the leadership of Xiao Han, the Xiliang cavalry did not attack Shuoyin City, but brushed past the south gate, passed by the edge of Shuoyin City, and went straight away.

"Second miss."

The city guard suddenly noticed a woman in black riding a horse following Xiao Han.

"Why is she in the Xiliang Army?"

He muttered to himself.

After circling Shuoyin City, the two messenger troops joined the Xiliang Iron Cavalry and headed northeast, finally setting up camp at the foot of a mountain more than ten miles away.

At dawn the next day, when the scouts from Shuoyin City arrived at the Xiliang camp, the camp was already empty.

The 40,000 Xiliang cavalry had disappeared, and the scouts hurriedly reported.

"Yuwen Wu, pass the order down. When we charge the camp later, we must not linger in the battle."

Xiao Han's face was solemn. "Hu Chi, you take 5,000 soldiers and attack the Northern Wei camp first. After the battle, retreat immediately."

"Lure the Northern Wei army out of the camp, and then I will lead the remaining people to rush into their camp from the flank."

"In this battle, we can charge two rounds at most, then we must retreat. This order must reach the ears of every centurion."

"promise."

Although the group of brave generals agreed verbally, they all looked strange. This style was a bit unlike the style of their lord.

"My Lord, where are we retreating to?"

Yuwen Wu asked.

"Go east, towards the north city."

Xiao Han said: "We must give full play to the characteristics of light cavalry, coming and going like the wind. We are not sending troops this time to kill the enemy, but only to disrupt the situation in Jizhou of the Northern Wei Dynasty and tie down their main force."

"understood."

Although they didn't know the purpose of doing this, at least they really understood the tactics.

"woooooo"

A loud horn sounded, and then Hu Chi led five thousand cavalrymen, bypassed the foot of the mountain, and rushed towards the Northern Wei camp.

"Rumble"

The earth was shaking, sand and rocks were flying, the war horses were running faster and faster, and all the soldiers held their swords horizontally.

Outside the camp, the patrolling cavalry of the Northern Wei army immediately reacted and shouted: "Enemy attack."

"There is an enemy attack."

"die."

Hu Chi roared, his face ferocious under the iron armor, and slashed with the long sword in his hand, cutting the rushing Northern Wei cavalry into two with one blow.

The war horses continued to charge forward, long swords swept across, and corpses fell to the ground from the horses' backs, blood spurting out.

At the first encounter, the 5,000 cavalry led by Hu Chi tore a hole in the defense of the Northern Wei army.

Rushed directly into the camp.

And at this time.

The main force of the Northern Wei army also rushed out of the camp, and a bloody battle broke out between the two sides.

"Fall back."

Although Hu Chi's brain wasn't very good, his eyesight was good and he didn't forget Xiao Han's instructions.

He turned his horse around and rushed out with his soldiers. "Retreat."

Thousands of Xiliang cavalry came and went like the wind, rushing out directly and escaping without looking back.

"Catch up."

The Northern Wei cavalry general was furious and led his cavalry out of the camp, chasing after Hu Chi's thousands of cavalry.

"kill."

Seeing that the time was ripe, Xiao Han, holding a saber and leading more than 30,000 cavalry, emerged from the flank and launched a charge using the terrain.

"Go away."

The sudden arrival of the army frightened the Northern Wei soldiers. Many of them wanted to step forward to stop them, but before they could react, they were chopped to the ground.

"Pfft."

Xiao Han swung the horse-killing sword in his hand, and a bright sword light burst out, sweeping out and directly cutting a gap in the Northern Wei camp.

"kill."

He rode his horse and led the mighty Xiliang cavalry into the camp, killing anyone he saw and setting fire to any forage tents he saw.

"kill."

Seeing that his lord had led his men into the camp, Hu Chi immediately turned around and rushed towards the Northern Wei cavalry behind him. With the cooperation of Yuwen Wu's Youzhou cavalry, they killed thousands of Northern Wei cavalry in half a cup of tea.

The two armies joined forces and wreaked havoc in the Northern Wei camp. Flames shot up into the sky and smoke billowed, which could be seen even from dozens of miles away.

Xiao Han looked back and saw that the entire Northern Wei camp was engulfed in fire and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

He grinned and said, "Go." With one round of charge, they pierced the Northern Wei camp. The fire was still spreading, although tens of thousands of Northern Wei soldiers were killed.

But in the camp, there were still 80,000 to 90,000 Northern Wei cavalrymen. After a brief panic, they were gathering quickly and surrounding the Xiliang cavalrymen.

If it was a battle of offense and defense, Xiao Han was confident that he could defeat these 100,000 Northern Wei soldiers with his 40,000 cavalry and his personal bravery.

But this time the purpose is not to annihilate the enemy, so there is no need to fight to the end.

"Walk."

Without looking back, he led his cavalry out of the camp and headed west, with the flames behind him becoming more and more fierce.

After chasing for half an hour without success, tens of thousands of Northern Wei cavalry had to give up.

The Youzhou cavalry and Huben Camp that Xiao Han brought this time were both light cavalry. They came and went as fast as the wind and were extremely convenient.

On the vast land, 40,000 Xiliang cavalry disappeared without a trace.

into the night.

The moonlight is hazy.

Bonfires were burning beside the clear stream. Xiao Han broke through the Northern Wei camp in the direction of Shuoyin and headed eastward. At this time, he had gradually penetrated deep into the heart of the Northern Wei army in Jizhou.

They set up camp, cooked meals, and sent out scouts thirty miles away. At the same time, Luowang and the Secret Service were secretly monitoring the movements of the Northern Wei army in Jizhou.

There was little noise, and all the soldiers were taking the time to rest. They knew that today's battle was just an appetizer, and the following fighting would only be more bloody and tragic.

But no one was afraid, and many of them even felt their blood boiling. It had been a long time since they had such a satisfying battle.

However, Hu Chi was an exception. This guy killed hundreds of Northern Wei barbarians during the day, but he acted as if nothing had happened.

Upper stream.

Xiao Han was wearing armor and holding cold water to wash the blood off his body. He had killed many more Northern Wei barbarians than Hu Chi.

The armor was covered in blood and flesh.

Not far away, Xie Peiyao, the second young lady of Jizhou, dressed in a black warrior uniform, was also washing her face.

"Should I give you a suit of armor?"

"This is a big war, and war could break out at any time!"

He teased.

"unnecessary."

Xie Peiyao had become indifferent. After washing, she returned to the camp, took some dry food, and ate by herself.
