Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 429 Night Attack
In the middle of the night, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse.

Three thousand soldiers sat steadily on their horses, lightly pulling the reins, holding their weapons tightly, carrying torches made of pine branches on their bodies, and arrows tied with dry yellow pastures, looking at Liang Xiao in front of the battle with enthusiastic eyes.

Liang Xiao rode on Mingzhu's back and walked slowly in front of the soldiers.

He wore the armor bestowed by the emperor, and wore a jade sword. Under the light of the fire, his armor was bright and majestic, like a god descending from the earth.Pang Shuo walked beside the black bow with his arms in his arms, with a murderous look on his black face, like a warrior guarding a god.

In fact, in the hearts of the soldiers, Liang Xiao was the god on the battlefield.If not, how could he have made great military exploits at such an age, and even left Li Guang, Cheng Bushi and other veterans far behind.

Now, they will once again follow the god into battle.Their victory will break the current predicament and win wealth and glory for themselves.

Liang Xiao lightly reined in the reins, and Mingzhu stood firmly with her four hooves like iron.The night wind blew its mane, but it couldn't blow Liang Xiao's will.

"You all left your family behind and came here for what?"

A school lieutenant raised his hand and said loudly, "I am loyal to His Majesty and serve the imperial court."

"That's right, we are here to serve His Majesty and serve the imperial court." Liang Xiao smiled faintly: "What else?"

Another soldier said loudly: "For the glory and wealth, let the family live a good life."

Liang Xiao smiled even more happily and nodded slightly. "This purpose is less noble, but more practical."

The soldiers laughed softly.They also think that this reason is more practical. The imperial court and His Majesty are too far away from ordinary people like them.

When the laughter gradually subsided, Liang Xiao asked again: "Is there any more?"

The soldiers looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.For a while, everyone was silent, but their eyes became more intense. They looked at Liang Xiao, hoping to hear a more powerful reason.

Liang Xiao stretched out his hand, slowly pulled out the jade sword bestowed by the emperor, and gently stroked it. "Gentlemen, three years ago, when I was on an envoy to the Western Regions, I passed by this place for the first time. I saw the Huns galloping on horses and enslaving us Han people. I had a dream. One day, I will cut down these Huns with my sword. The head of my family, occupy this grassland, and let the Huns be our slaves. Now, my dream is about to come true."

A seemingly inadvertent sentence caused a huge reaction.The soldiers breathed heavily and their eyes were red.Most of them are children of border counties, who have been harassed by the Huns all year round. Many of them have the experience of family members or townships being killed and taken away by the Huns, and they have seen countless tragedies of family destruction.This hatred has been buried in the bottom of my heart, waiting for the opportunity to explode.

Wealth is attractive, but not everyone is willing to pay the price of their lives for it.But revenge is different, if you don't take revenge, how can you be human?
The children of Bianjun are strong-blooded, and revenge can arouse their fighting spirit far more than wealth.

Now, Liang Xiao used his personal experience to arouse the hatred in their hearts.

Liang Xiao raised his head, raised the long sword in his hand high, and shouted loudly: "Masters, are you willing to charge into battle with me and avenge those compatriots who were bullied by the Huns?"

"Yes!" The school lieutenant who had just answered that he wanted to serve the court shouted sharply with red eyes.

"Yes!" More soldiers raised their weapons and shouted loudly.

Liang Xiao shouted again: "Do you still remember the two missions today?"

"Remember!" Xie Guanglong lifted the reins, the horse neighed, and he stood up. "One is to burn, and the other is to kill!"

"Yes, one is to burn, and the other is to kill!"

"Burn his mother, kill his mother!"

"Burn them to death, kill them all—" the roar gradually became more and more orderly, earth-shattering.

Liang Xiao turned the horse's head and kicked Mingzhu lightly.Mingzhu strode forward with four hooves and galloped lightly.Liang Xiao raised his sword and pointed forward obliquely.

"set off!"

"Here!" Xie Guanglong responded loudly, he kicked the horse fiercely, took the lead, rushed out of the battle formation, and galloped past Liang Xiao.

More knights rushed out, gathered tightly beside their respective bosses, and began to speed up.

Three thousand cavalry spread out on both sides of Liang Xiao, lined up in a horizontal formation, and charged forward mightily.

The camp of the Huns was quiet.

There are still seventy or eighty miles away from the nearest battlefield, and there are tens of thousands of troops of Shanyu and King Youxian in front. The Huns are very relaxed and don't worry about the Han people appearing here.They rested early, and only the soldiers in charge of night patrol were still patrolling inside and outside the camp, shouting feebly passwords with their eyes open.

A group of soldiers held torches and shouted as they walked in the camp. "The sky is dry and things are dry, be careful of fire...fire...fire..."

"The fire is endless, isn't it?" The soldier behind tried to open his eyes and pushed his companion in front. "You stinky mouth, don't call it an accident, burning food and grass, killing you is not enough."

"No, look, fire! Fire!" the stuttering Hun soldier pointed to the distance and shouted in panic.

The soldier behind looked up and was taken aback. He quickly raised his hand and wiped his eyes with his sleeve.When he saw the fire dragon getting closer and brighter on the horizon in the distance, he couldn't help but gasp.He hurriedly picked up the horn and blew it vigorously.

"Woo--" The alarm horn sounded suddenly, breaking the calm inside and outside the camp.

Outside the camp, in the darkness, the scouts stood in groups of three or five in the wilderness. Although they were still sitting on horseback, their heads were already hanging down, snoring loudly.Far away from the battlefield, there is nothing wrong with it, even if the officers saw it, they would not punish them.Suddenly hearing the sound of the alarm horn, they were startled and almost fell off their horses.The war horse under his crotch also became restless, snorting frequently and pawing the ground with its hooves.

"His mother, who's blowing the trumpet?" someone cursed.

"Enemy...enemy attack!" Seeing the fire dragon in the distance, the companion screamed in panic, pulled down the horn, and blew it vigorously.

"I..." An angry curse was held in his throat, and the Huns who were not fully awake were completely stunned.Seeing this fire dragon, no matter how stupid he was, he knew what was going on.

The question is, where did the enemy come from?
All of a sudden, the horns sounded one after another, echoing each other, resounding inside and outside the camp.

Almost at the same time, Liang Xiao also gave the order to charge.The orderly beat the war drum vigorously, and all the soldiers began to speed up. The chaotic sound of horseshoes gradually became orderly, converging into a thunderstorm, and galloping towards the camp of the Huns.

Liang Xiao's order was mainly to fire, so the Han army did not use the usual assault formations such as geese formation and sagittal formation, but a horizontal formation. Up to a thousand steps, each person has a torch, the momentum is huge and the momentum is amazing.

At this moment, they let go of their horseshoes and began to charge. The torches in their hands were whistling by the wind, illuminating their angry faces and their blood-red eyes.

A tooth for a tooth, blood for blood.Today they are not here to fight, but to take revenge.

To avenge the relatives who died under the knife of the Huns for decades, and to avenge countless people who were taken away by the Huns and buried in foreign lands.

If it hadn't been for Liang Xiao's repeated reminders before, it would be a problem whether these fighters who were blinded by hatred could maintain their formation.

With the sound of hooves like thunder, [-] Han soldiers and nearly [-] horses rolled up a storm and rushed into the camp of the Huns, throwing torches and rockets.

The camp of the Huns suddenly burst into flames.

Liang Xiao drew his bow and shot seven arrows in one breath. "Swish, swish!" Feather arrow broke through the wind, disappeared into the darkness, and then appeared in front of a Hun who had just rushed out of the tent.

One by one the Huns fell to the ground with arrows.

The fire fox and other skilled archers shot with all their strength with Liang Xiao, causing even greater confusion to the Huns with their bows and arrows, delaying their reaction.Since following Liang Xiao, they no longer have to run around for a living, and they have been personally trained by Huan Yuan. Although their archery skills are not as good as Liang Xiao's, they have undoubtedly reached the peak of archery skills.Even on a galloping horse, you can hit a hundred shots within a hundred steps.

Although there are only six people, their power is no less than dozens of people.

The Huns were not psychologically prepared at all, and the patrolling soldiers blew their horns in time to sound the alarm, but they still failed to respond in time.When Liang Xiao and others rushed into the camp, only a few people walked out of the tent, and most of them were still asleep.By the time they realized what was wrong, the camp was already in flames.

Liang Xiao and the others rushed to the Huns' central army without encountering any strong resistance.A hundred paces away, Liang Xiao glanced at the banner of the Chinese army, took out an arrow tied with withered grass from his quiver, lit it on the torch, and then put it on the bow. After aiming for a while, the arrow shot out.

The feather arrow hit the big banner and nailed it to the thick flagpole. The flame quickly ignited the big banner, and the exquisite big banner turned into a ball of flames, burning blazingly.

Immediately afterwards, Liang Xiao took out another armor-piercing arrow, glanced at the Xiongnu general who had just rushed out of the tent, and shot out with a smile.

The general of the Xiongnu fell to the ground in response, dying.

"Speed ​​up, speed up!" Liang Xiao never looked at the Hun general again, ordered to speed up again, and rushed forward.He knew that even if the general didn't die, there was nothing he could do.Half of the camp was on fire, and unless he could call the wind and rain, the gods would not be able to save him.

The sound of war drums sounded, and the soldiers of the Han army, who were happily setting fire to the fire, accelerated again and moved closer to Liang Xiao.The prepared torches were thrown away, the prepared rockets were shot, and they began to pick up their weapons and hunt down the chaotic Huns.

Liang Xiao said, one is to burn, and the other is to kill.The burning is almost done, and the killing should start now.

The night wind was tighter, and the hoofbeats were more urgent.Under the blazing light of half of the big camp, the three thousand cavalry gradually merged into dozens of vertical arrays, galloping along the passage between the tents of the Huns, and chopped down the Huns who had just rushed out of the big tent one after another. Earth, killed in a nightmare.
