The horse galloped extremely fast, leaving no time for the commander to think about it. The result was already out.
They saw Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize riding amber horses pulling the reins before the battle formed by the barbarians. The barbarians that lined up the most closely on the outermost side of the battle formation fell directly to the inner side of the empty space, and then rushed all the way to the past.
As for the other Daxia cavalry, they circled the barbarian battle formation and killed the officials who were busy turning their heads to look at the center of the battle formation and ignored the barbarians who were guarding them.
Such an unbelievable operation made the barbarian commander stunned. Who would have thought that two Daxia cavalrymen would dared to rush directly into the barbarian army?
The entire barbarian army was thrown into chaos and devastated by two Daxia cavalrymen.
Some of the barbarians couldn’t bear this kind of frustration. After Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize rushed out of the battlefield, they couldn’t help but rushed out. After being discovered by Cheng Huaiqian, they turned the horse’s head and killed them again.
The barbarians who were dazzled by anger only remembered that the personal combat power of these two Daxia cavalrymen was really strong, and the barbarians who were not enough in number and strong enough to confront them were purely looking for abuse.
When the barbarian commanders at all levels shouted to reorganize the team to guard against the next impact of the Daxia cavalry, Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize brought the cavalry to a stop not far from the barbarian battlefield, looking at the barbarian army but did not immediately charge again.
The two men and horses were separated by a distance of less than 100 meters.
Then the barbarian army watched Xia Ruize take out a long bow, and began to draw bows and throw arrows at them. Xia Ruize’s kill target was very clear, that was, those who were responsible for commanding ordinary barbarians in the battle.
In fact, there were very few big bosses in the barbarian army. When the small barbarian chief was dispatching and commanding, he had clearly felt that the order was not smoothly communicated.
And Xia Ruize’s goal was to completely cut off the middle-level command of the barbarians.
The big and small bosses could hardly resist Xia Ruize’s bow and arrow shooting, with a maximum of three arrows, which must be pounced.
The two sides stood on the spot and confronted each other for more than ten minutes. The small chief of the barbarian clan really felt sorry for his falling subordinates, but he did not dare to order the large troops to retreat directly, so he had to send orders to all the barbarians to face the direction of the Daxia cavalry and slowly move towards the south.
When the barbarians first started to retreat, the Daxia cavalry did not move. After the barbarians retreated for two minutes, they moved several tens of meters to the south. A group of Daxia cavalry suddenly moved and galloped toward the barbarian army. Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize divided the band. The six cavalrymen, divided into two groups, circled the barbarian army.
The evacuation of the barbarian army could not help but immediately stop, ready to defend against the Daxia cavalry.
In this way, the barbarians did not move, the Daxia cavalry did not move, only Xia Ruize was constantly shooting.
When the barbarians moved, the Daxia cavalry immediately came to attack. If the barbarians formed a tight defense, the cavalry would only circle around the army formation and shoot crossbow arrows.
With such a cycle, the progress of the barbarian army’s southward withdrawal was severely dragged down, almost moving forward at a distance of tens of meters.
The barbarian army couldn’t figure it out from top to bottom. Why were they forced to such a high level by a dozen Daxia cavalry?
But the reality was, let them chase, they couldn’t catch up with the Daxia cavalry, let them run, they couldn’t run the Daxia cavalry, besides being constantly disturbed and attacked, there was no way to take these Daxia cavalry! What made it even more desperate was that the two leading individuals of the Daxia cavalry were too powerful, and the senior barbarians had no way to go, and the barbarian army was completely restrained.
After dropping the bodies of more than three hundred compatriots all afternoon, the barbarian army finally finished the distance that had taken more than two hours in the morning.
The sky was getting dark, but the barbarians cheered up, because they were getting closer and closer to the camp.
The barbarian army simply gave up the counterattack and ran towards the camp, if the signs on the roadside were correct, they would be able to go home soon!
Seeing the uncontrollable smiles on the faces of some barbarians, Cheng Huaiqian couldn’t help but smile, hoping that his barbarian friends would like the surprises he and Xia Ruize prepared for them.
Of course, for the barbarians, there was definitely no joy, but there were definitely surprises, and there were too many!
When they found the landmark, they saw the place where they set up camp the night before, they realized that it should be the campsite not far away, but when they didn’t see the camp at all, the barbarians who ran in the front already had an indeterminate premonition in their hearts, so they went even more crazily towards where the camp should be.
Then, the hopeful barbarians saw the camp that had been burned to ashes, and looked up, the ashes and debris on the ground were not even more than half a meter high!
It was gone… I was all gone!
The camp was gone, the food was gone, and even life was almost gone…
Running exhausted all day, supporting the belief that the barbarians must return to the camp after all the hard work was that they were safe after returning to the camp, and they could eat and drink and have a good rest, but the reality told them all this were delusions!
The camp was gone, where was the safety at all? What’s more, they, who were already dizzy with hunger, didn’t even had a bite of dry food!
The belief of strong support collapsed suddenly, and many barbarians who were exhausted and hungry no matter what Daxia cavalry were, they would not move when they laying on the ground, as if they were dead.
Looking at the ruins in front of him and the large tracts of men lying on the ground behind him, the small chief of the barbarian clan dripped blood with hatred, but his frustration and powerlessness came up uncontrollably.
The remaining high-level barbarians fully realized that the task of the small group of Daxia cavalry was to delay their marching progress in every possible way, so as to leave time for the camp to destroy, or to slow down their arrival in Bianlu City.
After the extreme anger, the barbarian chief bitterly ordered that the damn Daxia cavalry didn’t want them to go to Bianlu City? Then they would go right away! wasn’t there no camp? Just right, go now and hurry up all night!
As long as the remaining 700-odd barbarians gather together, did not give the Daxia cavalry a chance to attack the army, face the Daxia cavalry step by step, and help each other resist the arrow attack, the small chief did not believe they wouldn’t be able arrive safely.
The small chief´s idea was good, but because of the lack of the big and small bosses as a transit point for conveying orders, it took some time for the barbarian small chief to reach every barbarian warrior under the order, and the barbarian warrior who just fell to the ground and didn’t want to move anymore were one by one forcibly picked up by the guards of the small chief, and it took some time. When everything was ready, the barbarian army was ready to rush to Bianlu City overnight. When the small chief´s plan was implemented, a temptation suddenly floated in the air, a very meaty aroma.
All the barbarian warriors looked uncontrollably at the small mountain bag not far away. There, the Daxia cavalry lighted a huge fire, and on the fire, there were several branches strung together with fat rabbit meat.
Xia Ruize took out the seasonings given to them by the middle-aged chef, and sprinkled it on the rabbit meat. Therefore, the rabbit meat that was roasted and oily became more fragrant, and the fragrance of the meat drifted along the breeze to the barbarian camp.
The barbarians had been hungry for a whole day. The stomachs that were so hungry and unconscious were instantly activated and hammered to death. Therefore, there were sounds of desperately smelling and swallowing one after another, and the protests made by the stomach after being stimulated. Most of the barbarians have only one thought left in their minds: hungry, meat!
The few barbarians who were so hungry and black in front of them couldn’t care about other things. The first requirement for life to fill their stomachs overwhelmed everything, and they walked uncontrollably towards the Daxia camp on the hillside.
The other barbarians just watched the barbarians first walk towards the fire of the Daxia cavalry, and even the guards of the small chief did not care about blocking them.
The Daxia cavalry’s wanton humiliation and laughter drifted along the breeze, but these sounds drifted away with the wind after a whirl in the ear, and they could not arouse the anger of the barbarians. It was one of the Daxia cavalry that really attracted the attention of all the barbarians. He actually tore a piece of rabbit meat from the fat rabbit and threw it far away to the barbarians who were close to them.
The barbarians walking in the forefront immediately rushed in madness, picked up the piece of rabbit meat from the ground, regardless of whether it was dirty or hot, and stuffed it hard into his mouth. Suddenly, his mouth was full of meat. The barbarian did not have time to chew a few times and swallowed desperately, because the other barbarians had rushed over and tried to fight him.
The satisfaction of the stomach being filled made the barbarians smile, and the surrounding barbarians who hadn’t grabbed the meat were stimulated to rush to the fire of the Daxia cavalry.
The barbarians who had been suppressed for a whole day spread crazy emotions to each other. Suddenly, most of the ordinary barbarian warriors went crazy. They didn’t care about any orders to go to Bianlu City, and they rushed towards the place where the Daxia were.
Cheng Huaiqian waved his hand, and his cavalry immediately lifted a torch and a branch wearing rabbit meat on their horses and evacuated from the fire. Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize also roasted rabbits with branches in one hand, and lit the torches in one hand, and the horses slowly left.
The cavalry scattered and evacuated individually; but they all evacuated northward.
As a result, the barbarians, who had exhausted the last trace of their strength, rushed over, completely uncontrollably followed the Daxia cavalry and ran north again.
Both Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize clearly felt that the food intake of the two of them was larger than the others in the past two days. That was to say, the better the basic physical fitness, the more energy they needed, the greater the appetite.
They were so, let alone the barbarians who had grown tall and strong since they were young, they had long been accustomed to the daily routine of eating a lot.
Unless the demand for food was particularly great, the barbarians would not go to Daxia every autumn to loot food, because they did not have enough food in stock, they really couldn’t resist the cold winter. Only when the Northern Territory warms up every summer, the barbarians could self-sufficiency in food.
In the beginning of the spring of this year, they attacked Daxia. The senior leaders of the barbarians used the food they saved to provide the barbarian army with a few full meals. Then, as long as the city hit Daxia, there would be countless food to stimulate the whole hungry. In winter, they finally recalled the enthusiasm of the barbarians who were full of food.
This excuse was as useful as hanging a piece of plump meat in front of a hungry wolf that had been hungry for a winter.
But who would have thought that their advance troops would encounter two demons, Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize?
Not to mention the burning of the army’s grain and grass, the barbarian army rushed to fight for a whole day. The barbarian’s consumption was much more than expected, and it was not possible to rest and supplement the journey to Bianlu City.
But Cheng Huaiqian would not let them continue south.
They saw Cheng Huaiqian swaying the roasted rabbit in his hand triumphantly, controlling the warhorse to run forward. He took a bite of barbecue from time to time, deliberately making a happy and contented expression. The torch in his hand was actually not to show his way. But to show the way for the barbarians, so that the barbarians could see him, this performance directly irritated the barbarians behind him with blood red.
The new hatred and the old hatred came together. At this moment, the person in their hearts who they most wanted to die was officially Cheng Huaiqian.
was Cheng Huaiqian so bad?
No, he could be worse.
