My younger brother Lü Fengxian

Chapter 198: Sweeping the Enemy
"Brother! Gao Shun is attacking!"

On the top of Luwu City, Cheng Lian, who heard the noise of the charge of 800 armored cavalry, immediately said excitedly to Lu Yi.

"Oh!"

Lu Yi couldn't help but get excited when he heard this.

These eight hundred armored cavalrymen almost drained his energy.

Even in the past six months, he still did not slack off in making the armor.

However, after using up all the iron stored in Luwu, he only managed to forge another 700 sets of iron armor.

After making these 700 sets of armor, all his assets were completely drained out.

Norda’s treasury and warehouses are so empty that horses can be run through them.

There were only 50,000 shi of grain left, which could allow the people of Luwu to barely survive for another half a year.

However, due to the lack of war horses, even if he had another 700 armored suits, Lu Yi had no cavalry to match them, so he could only put them aside temporarily and wait for future expansion.

After hearing Cheng Lian's reminder, Lu Yi first carefully observed the Xianbei soldiers trapped under the city.

It was discovered that only Su Shuang and a few hundred Xianbei vanguards were still resisting and refusing to surrender.

The remaining two thousand plus Xianbei vanguards were lying in a mess in the narrow space.

They were either killed by iron arrows or by flying stones and rolling logs.

Even the few who were still able to breathe were seriously injured and it was basically impossible for them to survive from the post-war injuries.

Su Shuang's few hundred remaining soldiers could not cause any waves.

Seeing that his hometown of Luwu was safe, Lu Yi then turned his gaze to the 800 armored cavalrymen who were less than a mile away from Hutuo's tribe in the distance.

Gao Shun and his men had already charged forward, and their speed had reached the limit of the horses.

Gao Shun was seen leading the way, with a large flag with the word "Gao" flying in the wind behind him, pointing directly at Hu Tuo's camp.

Although the number of people in Gao Shun's army was only one-fifth of that in Hutuo's army, they were full of vigor and vitality, and had the ambition and courage to swallow an elephant in one gulp.

On the other hand, Hutuo's troops fell into chaos. Some fierce men wanted to rush forward to confront the armored cavalry, while some smart men, seeing that the situation was not good, wanted to escape.

But more of them were the people controlling the horses under their crotches, at a loss.
Hu Luan had completely destroyed Huto's command system. No matter how Huto sent out orders, the messengers were blocked by the chaotic soldiers, like a stone sinking into the sea.

"Chief! The army is in chaos! Let's run away!"

Upon seeing this, Hutto's confidants immediately tried to persuade Hutto, who was furious because of his incompetence.

"no!"

"These warriors are the hope for the rise of my Hutuo tribe, and they are also the support for my Hutuo tribe's survival!"

"If we lose these last 4,000 warriors, even if Hutuo can escape for one day, the Hutuo tribe will still perish because of us!"

Huto has lost all his former cunning and cleverness, and is like a gambler who has lost all his money.

He suddenly pulled out the scimitar inlaid with countless gorgeous gems from his waist and pointed it angrily at the enemy.

"It's better to fight them. Only this way can we have a chance of survival!"

"But Chief, the enemy is an armored cavalry, and they have already charged. They cannot be stopped by human power!"

The confidant wanted to persuade him again but Hutto suddenly put a scimitar to his throat.

"How dare you disobey the orders of our clan leader? Are you a coward who wants to fight a losing battle?"

"My subordinates dare not!"

Seeing that Hutto had completely lost his mind, the confidant dared not say anything more and could only obey the order respectfully.

"Hold high the banner and follow me to attack!"

At Hutto's command, the flag that had been lowered for the ambush was raised again. Seeing the flag raised, the originally chaotic Hutto troops regained some order.

The panicked Hutuo tribesmen subconsciously moved towards the military flag.

Instead, it allowed Huto to regain some control over the army.

"Brave warriors of the Hutto tribe, the enemy has already completed its charge. We will definitely not be able to outrun them. We will definitely be caught up and killed one by one by the enemy."

"Fortunately, our numbers are several times greater than the enemy's. If we had the advantage in numbers, we could still defeat them."

"Warriors of the Hutuo tribe, show your courage and let the enemy see the bravery of the Xianbei people!"

After briefly boosting the morale that had hit rock bottom, Hutuo took the lead and rushed towards Gao Shun and others without waiting for everyone's response.

If Hu Tuo had still been hoping for the best after seeing Su Shuang trapped in Luwu City.

Now, seeing these eight hundred elite armored cavalry suddenly appear beside him like silent ghosts.

Hu Tuo immediately realized that he had fallen into Lu Yi's trap from the very beginning.

In the past, it was always Huto who schemed against others.

Now he has become the struggling prey in the hunter's trap.

This huge sense of gap made Hutto so angry that he almost drew his sword and committed suicide.

However, his many years of experience as a powerful leader made him choose to give it a try.

As long as he can defeat the ambush in front of him, he can break through the hunter's trap. Even if he cannot kill the hunter, he can escape back into the wilderness and get a chance to catch his breath.

Therefore, Hutuo changed his previous cunning and calculating style and chose to confront Gao Shun head-on.

For some reason, when he launched the counterattack, it seemed as if something very old was reactivated in his body.

He was stunned for a moment, then excitedly opened his big mouth full of sharp teeth and roared.

This is the bravery and brutality that is deeply rooted in the blood of the Hu people!
"Come on!"

The Xianbei warriors of the Hutuo tribe felt the fearlessness of their leader, and immediately howled and roared while riding their horses to follow closely behind him.

Right here on the border of the Han Dynasty.

The wild and desolate land of Jiuyuan.

Hundreds of years ago, a desperate charge between the Han cavalry and the Hu light cavalry was staged again.

The conflict between Han and Hu lasted for a thousand years, and it is unknown who will win this time.

"Fire arrows!"

At Hu Tuo's command, the Xianbei light cavalry behind him bent their bows and shot arrows at the eight hundred iron cavalry who were less than a hundred steps away from them.

In an instant, thousands of arrows flew like a rain of arrows towards the eight hundred cavalrymen who were charging rapidly.

However, facing the sharp arrows of the unarmed Han people and the heavily armored cavalry who were armed to the teeth with only their eyes exposed, there was no threat at all.

"Lower your head!"

Gao Shun shouted loudly, and the men immediately lowered their heads at a 45-degree angle as if by conditioned reflex, using their hard iron helmets to block the arrows.

"Ding ding ding..."

After a burst of intensive sounds of metal clashing, only a few of the 800 cavalrymen were hit by arrows through the joints and gaps in the armor and fell off their horses due to the dense rain of arrows.

Almost all of the 800 cavalrymen were unharmed, and under the leadership of Gao Shun, they charged straight towards Hu Tuo's flag.

"Disperse!" After feeling the same fear that his ancestors had felt decades ago, Huto was shocked and gave orders quickly.

However, although his order was fast, it was still not as fast as the charge of eight hundred cavalrymen!
