Big man: I am the Champion Marquis!

Chapter 126 The Murderous Huns
Huo Xian led his troops in pursuit, and there was a high chance that they would catch up with the Huns by following those horse hoof prints.

Suddenly Liu Mo shouted, "My Lord, it's just ahead!"

The Huns on the small slope might be tired from running and needed to rest, or they might have enough confidence because of the presence of the Archer.

According to the normal way, they must surround the Archer and others, and then consider killing them. But this time it is not possible, the main force has not arrived yet.

The other side has twelve people, and we only have twenty people on our side. If we really disperse and start to surround them, we might be defeated one by one by the opponent, which is not good.

Huo Xian raised his hand, and his soldiers pulled the reins one after another. The war horses also began to pant for breath, as they were a little tired after galloping all the way.

Keeping a safe distance, Huo Xian said, "The bows of those archers are hard, don't get too close."

Liu Mo and Zhao Hexi were a little annoyed. They were both useless and could not use a hard bow. The troops they brought this time were strong, but their archery skills were average.

Beyond the range, this is a safe distance. It seems that the best approach is to stay far behind these Huns and wait for them to become tired before leading the army to kill them.

However, if these options were really chosen, Huo Xian would not have left the main force behind to chase after them first. That was not his style.

Huo Xian stretched out his hand and said with a smile, "It's time to let the Xiongnu see the style of the Champion Marquis of the Han Dynasty!"

Liu Mo and Zhao Hexi hesitated to speak, their lord could barely be considered as "born with supernatural powers". He couldn't lift a tripod, but he was much stronger than an ordinary person.

However, although he was strong, Huo Xian, who claimed to be skilled in archery and horse riding, was only average in archery, and might be slightly better than an ordinary soldier. But compared with the Eagle Shooter, he was a laughing stock.

Complaining as he was, Zhao Hexi still handed over the bow, "Sir, shoot their horses first!"

Huo Xian immediately urged his horse forward, and sure enough, three Huns who had been waiting for the opportunity came out, and all three of them rode their horses towards Huo Xian.

He flexibly pulled the reins to change direction, and Daoli, which was originally rushing forward, immediately began to move sideways. Huo Xian, who was on horseback, drew his bow and arrow, using almost all his strength, and the next moment he let go of the string.

The bow shook like a thunderbolt.

The arrow flew past the archer's side and headed straight towards the Huns behind them.

A horse fell to the ground with a wail, and the knight on its back also fell off. He looked at his mount with grief and sorrow as it raised its neck weakly, and then collapsed to the ground the next moment.

"color!"

The soldiers following Huo Xian began to cheer. This was the most authentic portrayal of the Lord's superb archery skills. He knocked down the Huns' warhorse with one arrow!
Huo Xian laughed loudly, "Keep a close eye on them, don't let them get away!"

Although he had won the first battle, Huo Xian would not be complacent. This was just the beginning, and none of these Huns could escape!
The archers were getting anxious. They were trying to close the distance, but the Han people's horses were faster, so the Han army always kept a certain distance.

Suddenly, Huo Xian spurred his horse forward again and pulled the bow with all his strength. The archer, who had just turned and was about to turn around, wanted to escape in fear, but the next moment the arrow pierced his arm.

"color!"

"What's so lucky about that!" Huo Xian was furious. "Didn't you see that he was only shot in the arm? How can it be so lucky?"

The cheers of his troops sounded a bit harsh to Huo Xian. He aimed at the forehead, but hit the arm instead. The deviation was quite large.

Liu Mo didn't think so and said, "Sir, just shoot it, and the Hun will be destroyed!"

Hearing such consolation, Huo Xian felt much more balanced. Although this incident did not directly kill the Eagle Shooter, it crippled one of them, which was enough to make people feel the pressure suddenly reduced.

The remaining two archers were extremely angry and drove their horses again to close the distance. However, Huo Xian and his men turned around and ran, keeping a safe distance and definitely not entering the Xiongnu's shooting range.

Flying a kite, Huo Xian is now using the tactic of flying a kite. Relying on the fast horses and the advantages of light cavalry, he continues to put pressure on the Xiongnu.

This is indeed a difference in offensive and defensive situations. The tactics that the Huns were originally best at are now being used against them.

"My Lord!" Zhao Hexi suddenly shouted, "The Huns are trying to escape!"

That's right, the Huns also noticed something unusual, and being discovered by the Han army was a huge hidden danger. If they continued to delay, the Han army might catch up.

Although there is an archer present now, who knows if there is someone in the Han army who can shoot a hard bow, and the archer will not be able to kill the person.

You can't hit the enemy, and you dare not delay. Now you can only seize the time to escape. Maybe you will have a chance to survive, or even fight back.

Huo Xian also noticed the movements of the Xiongnu people. "Escape! They can't escape!"

If we let these Huns escape, it would be a joke! Seeing that the Huns were about to escape, Huo Xian and others immediately chased after them. The archer who was running in front suddenly stopped, turned around and rushed forward, quickly drawing his bow and arrow.

Liu Mo and Zhao Hexi protected Huo Xian on the left and right. The two men were concentrating and swung their swords fiercely with their hands in hand.

The arrow had no power left and was chopped down, but the next moment another arrow flew towards it.

Huo Xian held the spear in his right hand and used force to knock an arrow away.

The soldiers behind him drew their bows one after another, and these people no longer avoided the arrows. Their bows were not necessarily softer than the arrows of the archers, and now they were basically within the range.

More than a dozen arrows flew towards the two archers. Huo Xian let go of the spear and drew the bow again.

Huo Xian, with a red face, did not dodge or give way. He almost saw the arrow flying towards him. But he still aimed at it and released the string the next moment.

When the arrow hit the armor, Huo Xian groaned. But when he saw the archer in front of him fall off his horse, he was indescribably happy. The biggest hidden danger was basically eliminated!
Pulling out his ring-handled sword and cutting off the arrow shaft, Huo Xian made a sword flower and said, "Follow me to kill the enemy!"

The troops were all extremely excited. The prince shot and killed one archer and disabled another. The fate of these Huns was basically doomed.

As for the remaining archer, he was shot to death by a volley of arrows!

Huo Xian rode his horse and galloped along. A Hun turned his head in fear, drew his sword and stood ready. His horse had been shot dead before, so he could only stand on the ground and hold up his sword.

Huo Xian had no expression on his face. The sharp and terrifying spear tip hit the Hun's chest. The Hun flew backwards and didn't even have time to struggle. His body fell to the ground like a rag doll.

The Huns were fleeing and the Han army was chasing them, and the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer.

The Huns never imagined their current situation. Their arrows could not be shot as far as the Han people's, their horses were not as fast as the Han people's, and even now this land in the northern desert had become a place where the Han people hunted down the Huns!

All of this was something the Huns had never thought of before, but it all happened at this moment!

"Don't let them get away!" Huo Xian shouted, "You guys lead the charge, and the rest of you follow me to kill the enemy!"

Seeing that they could not escape, the Huns' ferocity was aroused. They stopped running and instead turned around and charged towards Huo Xian and others.

Since I can't escape, I might as well kill these Han people, that way I can get a way to survive!
Liu Mo and Zhao Hexi followed behind Huo Xian on the left and right, and there were two more followers behind them.

These seven people formed a cone-shaped formation to break the enemy's formation, and the rest of the troops also spread out to the left and right tacitly, using bows to harass and shoot the Huns, preventing them from escaping!

The two teams were getting closer and closer, and Huo Xian's horse lance showed a huge advantage. The Huns' spears were shorter, not to mention the knives!

The leading Hun collapsed at the first blow, and the spear tip pierced his leather armor. Huo Xian did not need to put away his spear, but continued to urge his horse forward and charge forward.

Huo Xian suddenly retracted his spear and swept his hand. He knocked down a Hun and immediately drew his sword. There was no need for any fancy moves, just swing the sword when the opponent passed by. Before he could make a move, Liu Mo chopped down a Hun.

In just one encounter, the ownerless horses had stopped, shaking their tails, and some even lowered their heads to eat fresh grass. More than ten meters behind them, their owners had fallen to the ground.

Huo Xian shook his sore arms and said with a smile, "It looks like he can't take a single blow!"

Liu Mo said, "Sir, I have long said that the Huns are easy to kill! As long as their horses are not as good as ours, and we get close to them, killing them is as easy as killing chickens!"

If other people said this, Huo Xian would definitely scold them. But Liu Mo and others said this, and that was the truth. All of this was earned by themselves. The achievements of Liu Mo and others were built on the brains of the Huns.

Liu Zhengnu attacked with both hands, grabbed the two Huns by their greasy hair and strode over, "Sir, just keep these two cowards, they look like they have some status!"

Huo Xian had previously noticed that these two people were the focus of protection, and their armor, attire, etc. were better than those of other Huns.

"Take them back for interrogation!" Huo Xian said with a smile, "I asked you to learn the Xiongnu language, but none of you wanted to learn it!"

It is very necessary to master a foreign language, but unfortunately none of Huo Xian's soldiers are willing to learn it.

"My Lord, I'll go cut off his head to claim the credit and get the reward!" Liu Zhengnu said with a smile, "I've had a great time this time. The Xiongnu are just like that. They're just as easy to kill as the Dayuan people!"

Liu Mo cursed, "I told you long ago that the Huns are like chickens to be slaughtered in front of the general, and can be crushed to death at will! You only need to obey the orders of the Lord, and you can kill as many Huns as you want!"

As Huo Qubing's subordinates, Liu Mo and others looked down on the Huns from the bottom of their hearts. They killed nearly 100,000 Huns. In Liu Mo's view, the Huns were no different from plague chickens.

"We have done something this time." Huo Xian was also happy and said, "Let's go back and see what these Xiongnu people's purpose is!"
