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

Chapter 61: The Battle of Xueyan Tribe
August fifteen.

Mooncake Festival.

Xiao Han finally received news from Luo Wang.

The Xueyan tribe’s lair was found.

Wuyang Camp.

On the school field.

There was a sea of ​​black cavalry, with no end in sight, and a large banner with the word "Xiao" fluttering in the wind.

In order, they are the four large banners of the Xiliang Prefecture Soldiers, the Black Armor Army, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and the Shen Ce Army.

Five thousand soldiers of the Shen Ce Army were in the front, one man on two horses, both men and horses were covered in thick armor, and had ferocious masks on their faces, revealing only two dark eye sockets.

Each of them holds a long and narrow dry sword, a tailor-made cold sword on the waist, and a strong bow and crossbow on his back.

Then came the eight thousand Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, each man with one horse.

The men wore light armor, each holding a long curved sword with mixed hair, and a small curved sword at their waists.

The captain Huluxu was holding an oversized dry sword, like an iron tower.

Following the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were 7,000 soldiers from Xiliang, armed with spears and long swords.

Finally, there are ten thousand Black Armor Army.

The sound of war drums was deafening.

Flags were waving, horses were whirring, and war horses were neighing.

On the high platform.

Xiao Han rode a tall yellow-brown horse, wearing black armor and a white cloak, and holding a long and narrow dry knife in his hand.

His sharp eyes swept across the training ground, and he was greeted by a series of scorching gazes.

"The barbarians are barbaric and uncivilized."

He shouted: "You have disturbed Xiliang for hundreds of years, taken my grain, burned my houses, killed my sons and daughters, and looted my wife and daughters."

"Can this revenge be avenged?"

"Yes."

The cavalrymen shouted loudly.

"The time to wash away a century of shame is now."

He raised the dry knife in his hand, his expression cold, and shouted: "Crush the Xueyan tribe, and make them the people of Xiliang. From now on, we will roam the grasslands."

"Destroy the Xueyan tribe."

"Destroy the Xueyan tribe."

"Destroy the Xueyan tribe."

"kill."

Xiao Han roared.

"kill."

"kill."

"kill."

Thousands of cavalrymen roared in the parade ground, and the heaven and earth shook.

Even the clouds above the sky were shattered.

"The army moves out."

The soldiers behind him carried the big banner.

Xiao Han pulled the reins, and the yellow-brown horse leaped up, jumped off the platform, and rushed towards the camp gate.

"Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, follow me."

"Set off."

Huluxu rode out on his horse, and the mighty Tiger and Leopard Cavalry rushed out of the camp and followed Xiao Han into the grassland.

"Shen Ce Army, follow me."

Han Qinghu took a deep breath, raised his iron spear, and followed closely with five thousand heavily armored cavalry.

"Xuanjia Army, set off."

Lu Ju jumped out holding a dry knife.

"Set off."

Zhao Mule also left the camp with the black-armored soldiers.

Behind.

The loud sound of the horn resounded through the sky for a long time.

The camp became farther and farther away and smaller until it completely disappeared.

After leaving Xiliang territory.

The palace soldiers led by Zhao Muli and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry led by Huluxu left the central army and advanced to the left and right wings.

The Shen Ce Army and the Xuan Jia Army were in the middle.

The two wings are on guard and responsible for exploring the way.

The three cavalry groups were not far from each other and could support each other at any time.

The scouts marched out two hundred miles.

Coupled with the large number of manpower deployed by Luowang and the Secret Service, every move of the Xueyan tribe was under Xiao Han's surveillance.

of course.

The army's westward expedition was so massive that it naturally could not be hidden from the eyes of the Xue Yan tribe.

Xiao Han wanted to force the Xue Yan tribe to confront him head-on.

The army advanced steadily.

Travel during the day and set up camp at night.

Five days later.

It was less than two hundred miles away from the royal tent of the Xueyan tribe.

They encountered harassment from several small groups of cavalry, but were easily dealt with by the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

The Shule River is vaguely visible.

Facing the Xiliang army, the Xueyan tribe had already been prepared.

At the foot of Mazong Mountain.

The Xue Yan tribe assembled 30,000 elite cavalry and was ready for battle.

This was the largest cavalry confrontation between Xiliang and the grassland tribes in the past ten years.

The total number of troops deployed by both sides was as high as 60,000.

"The battle is quite big."

high places.

Xiao Han looked out at the huge army of Xue Yan's tribe, with loud horns echoing in his ears.

"All Xiliang men are wimps."

"Haha, I'm going to kill ten Xiliang men later, and then take ten Xiliang women back."

"Warriors of the Xueyan tribe, charge and kill all these Xiliang people."

"Seize their wives and daughters."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

The horns kept blowing, and a rain of arrows rushed into the sky, drawing arcs.

Then it landed and headed towards the Xiliang army.

"shield."

Xiao Han spoke.

The soldiers beside him waved large banners and gave orders with flags.

The war drums beat loudly.

"dong dong dong"

The soldiers of the Black Armor Army, who were ready for battle, stepped forward and raised their large shields to block the rain of arrows shot by the Xue Yan tribe.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

The horn on the other side started to play faster.

After the rain of arrows.

The cavalry of the Xueyan tribe began to charge, and the shining scimitars emitted a cold light.

Behind the Black Armor Army, many powerful soldiers and generals are waiting.

The big banner on the general's tent changed.

The palace soldiers pressed forward, and the originally tight shield formation began to move to both sides, with long spears protruding from the gaps in the shields.

He charged towards the Xueyan tribe cavalry who were at the forefront.

"Pfft."

The sharp spear tip pierced the horse directly.

The horse fell to the ground due to the pain, and the Xue Yan people on it were trampled into a pulp by the cavalrymen who swarmed from behind before they could even scream.

"Pfft."

"Pfft."

Long spears and large shields were used to harvest the lives of the grassland cavalry like mowing grass.

Even if the shield formation was broken, the grassland people who rushed in would be chopped into two in an instant by the soldiers behind them with dry swords.

Every moment.

Countless lives have fallen on this land and become nutrients for plants and trees.

Irrigation created a fertile grassland.

The cavalry of the Xueyan tribe came like a tide, one wave after another.

If the one in front dies, the one behind will take his place immediately.

"Whoosh whoosh."

A dense rain of arrows rose into the air from the Xiliang army. How could the grassland people, who only had leather armor, withstand such a rain of arrows? In the blink of an eye, countless people were shot and turned into hedgehogs.

"The best way to deal with these cavalrymen is to use heavily armored infantrymen wearing heavy armor and holding dry swords."

Xiao Han chuckled: "It's a pity that we took the initiative to attack this time, and the infantry can't keep up."

"Otherwise, we must let these grassland barbarians broaden their horizons."

"It's time to let the Shen Ce Army play with them."

The soldiers behind him waved the banner of the Shence Army.

"Brothers, it's our turn."

Han Qinghu grinned: "We, the Shen Ce Army, are your personal guards. If anyone dares to be cowardly, I will be the first to kill him."

"Boom."

"Boom."

The heavy cavalry began to charge.

The speed was getting faster and faster, it was all dark, the earth was shaking, and thunder was roaring out of nowhere.

The man and the horse are all in armor, and the impact brought by the high-speed running is terrifying.

"Boom."

The two o'clock drum sounds.

The soldiers of the Palace Army and the Black Armor Army in the front row retreated to both sides to make way for the Shen Ce Army to charge.

"kill."

Han Qinghu had a ferocious look on his face. He pulled down the mask on his face, raised his spear, and charged forward without hesitation.
