Chapter 32 - Disappointed
Especially Xia Ruize, he has been staring at the high-level barbarians above the big boss to shoot, and in the process of chasing and fleeing all the way, he killed 24 barbarian big bosses and six barbarian minor commanders.
These high-level barbarians are very powerful, and sometimes Xia Ruize is difficult to kill with one arrow, but he is not in a hurry at all. One arrow cannot make two arrows, and two arrows cannot make three arrows.
It was precisely when the little barbarian leader found that his senior barbarians kept rushing into the street, that he gradually realized that the situation was not right, and ordered the army to stop and rest in place.
Looking at the Daxia cavalry that was standing upright not far away, the barbarians felt suffocated in their chests. If their eyes could kill people, the fourteen Daxia cavalry would have died thousands of times.
It’s a pity that eyes can’t kill people. The more realistic problem is that without war horses, the barbarians can’t catch up with the Daxia cavalry. There are few archers, and they can’t even shoot against the Daxia cavalry.
Apart from waving their weapons to resist the bows and arrows shot by the Daxia cavalry, the barbarians didn’t even have any effective means of counterattack, which was really embarrassing. Not to mention that many barbarians don’t even have the strength to wield weapons, so they can only be slaughtered.
After watching the Daxia cavalry kill more than ten high-level barbarians, the anger in the barbarian leader’s heart rushed to the top of his head again, and he finally put down the water and felt that he had rested. He immediately shouted and ordered his subordinates. Keep chasing.
There was a moan from the barbarian army, but it was obviously unable to impress the angry little barbarian leader. Therefore, after the eight war horses of the advanced barbarians moved, the barbarian army in the rear could only forcefully climb up from the ground and continue to follow. Horses galloping wildly.
Cheng Huaiqian asked his cavalry to turn the horse’s head and continue to run north. He waited for Xia Ruize to shoot two more arrows to kill a barbarian leader, and the barbarian leader even got close to the area of 20 meters before riding the horse and leaving.
The distance between the enemy and the enemy is so close that he can even see the expression of the other party clearly, but Cheng Huaiqian is not nervous at all. He even hooked his finger provocatively at the little barbarian leader.
The little leader was so angry that his eyes were spitting fire, but in the end he didn’t beat the horse vigorously to catch up with these two damned Daxia people.
The reason is very simple. At present, there are only seven subordinates who can keep up with his speed, and in the morning, under the protection of more subordinates, he and the two Daxia people did not get a good ride, and now it is even more difficult.
The plan of the little barbarian leader was to use the large number of barbarian warriors to kill these Daxia cavalry. Although they haven’t caught up with the Daxia cavalry now, the horses will always get tired of running, and then it will be the death of the Daxia cavalry.
The little barbarian leader selectively ignored that the war horses did get tired from running, but the barbarian warriors would obviously get tired earlier and faster. He now does not have hundreds of war horses that can rush up to surround the enemy, and his subordinates who only run on two legs can’t catch up with the Daxia cavalry who run on four legs.
After chasing again for more than half an hour, the barbarian army completely stopped. Even without the order of the little leader, the barbarians running on their legs in the rear couldn’t hold it.
He was sweating profusely, his eyes darkened, and his mind was dizzy. One barbarian was the first to lie down on the side of the road and refused to run again. After seeing it, the other barbarians followed suit, falling to the ground and never getting up again. Soon the barbarian army lay down. A large piece.
The little leader ran a long way, only to be reminded by the big commander beside him. Looking back, hehe, his men were scattered far and wide on the ground behind.
The little barbarian leader was extremely shocked. The barbarians respected absolute authority, and the subordinates did not dare to disobey the orders of the superiors. He did not expect that before he ordered a rest, these useless subordinates would dare to disobey first and steal under his nose. Slippery? !
Nuraihar was born in a barbarian clan, with strong strength. He became the leader of the army directly when he was an adult. His superiors were still the elders of the family. , angry and embarrassed, froze in place for a while.
The two commanders took this opportunity to try to persuade the little leader to give up the plan to pursue the damned Daxia cavalry, and it was more important to execute the order to invade the south.
The little barbarian leader is not a fool. He knows that his subordinates would rather disobey his orders than run again. He should be really unable to run. Even if he is unwilling, he wants to smash the corpses of the Daxia cavalry into thousands of pieces, but now does not seem to be a good opportunity.
While the senior barbarians were discussing countermeasures, the arrows of the Daxia cavalry never broke.
When the little barbarian leader finally compromised and ordered the army to turn around and head back to the south, Cheng Huaiqian smiled, a bright and charming smile appeared on his handsome face. Come to be the hunter.
With a wave of their hand and an order, Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize took their cavalry to catch up with the barbarian army from the side, drawing bows and shooting arrows at the barbarian army.
The barbarians already hated the dozen or so Daxia cavalry to the core, but there was nothing they could do about them. The barbarians who are good at bows and arrows have been targeted one by one by the leaders of the Daxia cavalry, and the remaining barbarians who are good at melee combat can only passively defend against arrows.
No matter how far the sword was thrown, it could not pose a threat to the Daxia cavalry. They can only treat these Daxia cavalry as annoying flies, and wave their weapons a lot to drive them away.
When the entire barbarian army turned around and headed south, Xia Ruize still picked the barbarian leader to kill him, but when the barbarians had walked for more than ten minutes, he suddenly drew his bow and turned his back to the unsuspecting ones. The barbarian commander, who was riding on the front horse, shot an arrow.
This arrow accurately penetrated the back of a barbarian leader, and penetrated the entire body. The arrow shot out from the front of the heart, and the arrow killed the barbarian leader who was closely following the little leader.
The barbarian commander looked down at his chest in disbelief, where a large amount of blood was gushing out, and before he even had time to turn his head to look at the attacker behind him, he fell straight down from the warhorse.
In the blink of an eye, before the other barbarians could react, another arrow had already shot through the unsuspecting barbarian great commander on the other side of the barbarian chief, and another great commander with troops fell powerless.
At this point, only two of the four great commanders surrounding the little leader remained, and the two commanders who led troops fell one after another. That is to say, there was a command gap between the little leader and the lower-level commanders.
In fact, the little barbarian leader who couldn’t believe his own eyes had not yet realized that the number of big bosses in the barbarian army was at stake, and there would also be a command gap between the little commander and the lower-level little bosses.
The sudden change completely broke the plan of the barbarians. No wonder the two barbarian leaders who should have been difficult to deal with were killed so easily. They were also paralyzed.
During the pursuit for most of the morning before, the target of the arrows of the damned Daxia cavalry chief was always the barbarians who were not riding horses, and they avoided the eight high-level barbarians who were riding horses every time.
After a long time, from the small commander, the big boss to the small boss, all the high-level barbarians who hurry on their legs have become accustomed to swinging their weapons twice in front of themselves from time to time, always vigilant against the attacks of the Daxia cavalry.
On the contrary, the eight high-level barbarians riding on war horses, after experiencing many false alarms, were used to ignoring the arrows that came flying, and gradually lost their vigilance.
In the early stage of turning back to the south, everything was normal, so Xia Ruize, who suddenly shot at them, was able to quickly deal with the two unsuspecting barbarian leaders with two arrows in a row.
Xia Ruize’s action was the beginning. After that, the bows and arrows of the other twelve Daxia cavalrymen were also aimed at the remaining six high-level barbarians on warhorses, including the little leader.
This time it was considered a hornet’s nest, and for the third time the little barbarian leader ordered the entire army to pursue the Daxia cavalry!
The difference from before was that this time, the barbarian warriors were full of anger again, because the two commanders with troops that Xia Ruize had just killed were the commanders with real power and heavy troops, and they were civilian barbarians who had been promoted all the way from the bottom. , their guards and subordinates were thoroughly enraged.
Under the power bonus of anger, the barbarian army squeezed its energy, quickly turned its direction, and chased after the Daxia cavalry again.
This time, the angry barbarians ran even faster than the previous round of pursuit.
The Daxia cavalry had long been accustomed to the scene of the barbarian army rushing towards them together, and they were not frightened at all.
Unfortunately, the physical strength of the barbarian warriors was seriously insufficient. After chasing for half an hour, the barbarian army was completely powerless to continue the pursuit, and even had no strength to turn around and return to the camp. Lie down and don’t move.
The only eight horses left, carrying the little barbarian leader, his two chief guards, and five guards, stood stunned in the middle of a large army of barbarians lying down. Immediately it was too unsafe, and they dismounted one after another and mixed into the barbarian group.
Under the command of Cheng Huaiqian, the Daxia cavalry was a ghost, and they fled hard, but as soon as the barbarians gave up chasing, they came back and lingered near the barbarian army to attack, which was very annoying.
The Daxia cavalry was scattered around the barbarian army, shooting arrows recklessly. The barbarians lying on the ground were like static targets, and they let them shoot without moving. This kind of experience is really unheard of and unprecedented. Trembling uncontrollably.
With today’s experience, even if they were to die immediately, there would be no regrets!
Thinking of this, the Daxia cavalry looked at the two officers with admiration and respect. From the initial dissatisfaction of being suddenly divided into the subordinates of the two new officers, to being shocked by the operation of the two officers, and now with incomparable respect, All because of the strength of the two officers.
The devout cavalry did not know what they were discussing at this moment.
“You said, can we seduce them to chase again?”
Cheng Huaiqian was bored to control the warhorse with one hand and shoot the crossbow arrow at will with the other hand. He is now a little far away from the barbarians, and the effect of the crossbow arrow is not as good as that of the bow and arrow. It is a pity that only the teammates have the bow and skill, even if the teammates have a new bow, But there is no exercise, even if he is given a bow, he can’t shoot well, so he simply concentrates on controlling Ma Jia to shoot the crossbow arrow.
“I’m afraid it will be difficult. I think they are really losing their strength.”
As Xia Ruize answered, he continued to draw the bow and shoot arrows. Following his teammates, he learned not to waste any attacking opportunities. Now is a very good attacking opportunity, and of course he cannot waste it. “The little leader can’t be killed yet, but he can kill others. barbarians, it is difficult to stimulate them to explode.”
Cheng Huaiqian nodded in agreement, looking a little regretful. To be honest, it was also a novel experience for him to walk the enemy recklessly in the wilderness. He was not tired of it, but it was a pity that the enemy was not very powerful.
Turning his eyes around, looking at the barbarians who were lying motionless on the ground, Cheng Huaiqian suddenly proposed:
“Since they refuse to chase, let’s just get closer, attack with crossbow arrows, and see if we can draw out some of the edges.”
Xia Ruize looked at the barbarians who were lying on the ground and refused to move their fingers even if they were attacked, and nodded in agreement.
So, under the horrified eyes of the Daxia cavalry, Cheng Huaiqian suddenly rushed towards the barbarian army.
