Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 219 Night Attack
As night falls, the night wind gradually tightens, and the weeds on the hillside are swayed by the wind, bowing their heads.

Liang Xiao and others gathered in the camel formation, lit a bonfire, set up a copper pot, boiled water, and roasted meat.The water was gurgling in the copper pot, the meat was squeaking on the grill, and people gathered around the campfire, talking softly with each other.

When the water boiled, someone took it down, poured it into a basin, sprinkled a handful of salt on it, and began to clean the wound.

After several days of fighting, everyone was wounded, but not so serious that they couldn't move.However, the situation is still not optimistic. Food and horses can be supplemented by exchanging land with herdsmen along the way, but medicine is very rare.The level of medical treatment of the Huns is much worse than that of the Han people. They basically rely on witchcraft, so how can there be extra medicine for them.

Without medicine, you can only rely on your body to heal yourself when you are injured. Whether you can get better or not depends on the destiny sometimes.

Not only people, but also horses and camels.Several war horses were injured, especially the war horses of Xie Guanglong and Li Shuyun. Because they were surrounded by the Huns, these two horses were hit by a lot of arrows, and they seemed to be dying.Xie Guanglong hugged his mount, weeping with tears and snot, no matter how you look at it, he is not the same person as that stingy guy.

War horses are different from ordinary horses. On the battlefield of life and death, whether the war horse can cooperate with the knight is very important, especially for a knight like Xie Guanglong who is good at close combat with spears, losing a long-matched war horse is no different. Yu broke his legs.

This moment is when Xie Guanglong regrets the most.If Pang Shuo had followed Liang Xiao's order and opened the way with a knife, perhaps there would not be such a result.

Pang Shuo was also seriously injured, with arrows in his arms and legs. Tu Niu'er helped him remove his armor and scrubbed the wound with salt water.Seeing Pang Shuo's injuries, Xie Guanglong was very embarrassed, and took out a small purse and stuffed it in Pang Shuo's hand.

"The wound medicine I usually use is pretty good."

Pang Shuo gave him a hard look and cursed. "Although I don't care much about it, I still accept it. If you make a fool of yourself in the future, I will hack you to death with a single knife, saving even the medicine."

"Not anymore. Not anymore." Xie Guanglong repeated embarrassingly with red eyes.

"The clothes are ripped off, I will show you the injuries." Tu Niu'er kicked Xie Guanglong, and lit up the small clay pot in his hand. "A thousand gold prescription, it's cheap for you kid. If Dumb hadn't pleaded for you, I wouldn't be willing to give it to you bastard."

"Really?" Xie Guanglong's eyes lit up immediately, and he took off his pants.There were two big blood holes on his thighs, and he was terrified to see them, but he himself seemed to be unaffected.It seems that such injuries are commonplace for him.

Liang Xiao turned his head, his heart softened, and the remaining anger in his heart was relieved.He looked at the Huns at the foot of the hill, and gradually frowned again.

The Huns did not leave, and lit piles of bonfires under the hillside. The pawns shot dead by him were put on stretchers, neither burned nor buried, and placed beside the bonfire. They jumped again, and some people cut their faces with knives, as if they were doing rituals.

Liang Xiao called Guo Wenbin. "What are these Huns doing? Sending him to heaven?"

Guo Wenbin looked at it for a while, then shook his head. "It doesn't look like it. It stands to reason that these people should have left after being shot. They stay here, do they still want revenge?"

"If I just want revenge, I'm not afraid of them." Liang Xiao looked around and said slowly, "What I'm worried about is that they still have reinforcements and more Huns will come. If that's the case, We're in serious trouble. Wen Bin, do you know which tribe under King Hunxie uses a golden-horned deer as a logo?"

Guo Wenbin thought for a while, then shook his head, with some doubts in his eyes.

"There are many tribes that worship deer, and they usually live near the woods. I don't know much about the golden-horned deer. I really can't remember it. However, after hearing what your lord said, I also think this household is a bit suspicious. Although the household He's a high-ranking official, but it's really rare to have thirty or forty guards in iron armor around him, let alone such a young man."

After hearing this, Liang Xiao also felt that something was wrong.The costumes and mounts of this Xiongnu head are unusual, and his set of fine-scale iron armor is even rarer.Even in the Han army, there are very few helmets with armor on the neck.If it is said that he was obtained by military exploits, his reaction before the battle was somewhat naive, not at all like a battle-tested and battle-hardened warrior.

Could it be the second generation ancestor of some tribe?

Liang Xiao knew that although the Huns did not pay attention to the succession of fathers and sons like the Han people, but not everyone can be a nobleman.The Huns were slaves, and officials and tribes were handed down from generation to generation, and it is not uncommon for the second generation of ancestors.

A strong uneasiness welled up in Liang Xiao's heart.

……

Liang Xiao almost didn't sleep all night.He has extraordinary hearing ability, and can rest in a quiet way, so he is most suitable for the task of night duty.What's more, he has something on his mind and can't sleep well.

After careful consideration in the middle of the night, he decided to find a prisoner to ask.

He woke up Tu Niu'er and Pang Shuo, and found Li Shuyun who was on duty in the second half of the night, and expressed his thoughts.Tu Niu'er and Pang Shuo naturally had no objection, they wiped their faces with their sleeves and went to prepare. Li Shuyun looked at the Huns who were still circling around the fire and howling in the distance, and was a little worried.

"My lord, the underdogs will win, you shoot their leader dead, just in case..."

"It's nothing in case." Liang Xiao interrupted Li Shuyun, stood up, twisted his neck, shook his arms, and his joints made a crisp sound. "They are just mourners, but we are dying, and we have to die and survive. You call up all the brothers and are ready to respond at any time."

Li Shuyun nodded and didn't argue any more.He had followed Liang Xiao for a long time, trusted Liang Xiao more, and knew how to maintain Liang Xiao's prestige in front of everyone.He quietly walked over and called everyone up, making them ready to respond.

Putting on the iron armor and carrying the bow and arrow, Liang Xiao and the three set off quietly.Tu Niuer sneaked in front, Pang Shuo was behind, and Liang Xiao followed closely behind Pang Shuo.Seeing Tu Niuer walking on the ground like a black leopard without making a sound, Pang Shuo smacked his lips lightly, his envy was beyond words.

Although he is taller and stronger than Tu Niu'er, but in terms of martial arts, he is not one point or two behind Tu Niu'er.Even after Zhong Liqi's guidance, he still couldn't compete with Tu Niu'er.As for this hidden skill, he can only envy him.

"The ruler is short, but the inch is long. You are not as good as a cow in a battle." Liang Xiao patted Pang Shuo's shoulder lightly, comforting him.

Pang Shuo chuckled twice, and clenched the iron knife in his hand even tighter.

They made a circle, and under the cover of dense grass, they came to the bottom of the hillside.A hundred steps away, a Hun knight was lying on his horse, as if asleep, unaware of the approaching danger.However, Liang Xiao still didn't dare to get too close. He was fine, but Pang Shuo's footsteps were a bit heavy, and the horse was more alert than a human. If he pushed too close, he would be easily spotted by the horse.

With fifty or sixty steps left, Liang Xiao tapped Pang Shuo's shoulder and stopped.The two hid in the grass in a kneeling position on one leg, listening to every move in front of them.Pang Shuo clenched the iron knife tightly, his eyes widened, and he paid attention to the movements within a five-step radius.Liang Xiao held the bow, hitched the arrow, closed his eyes, adjusted his breathing, and listened intently.

There was silence between the sky and the earth. Liang Xiao heard Pang Shuo's breathing deliberately slowed down, his intense heartbeat, and Tu Niu'er who was cautiously approaching the Huns more than ten steps away, and also heard the sound of the Huns in the distance. The snorting of the Huns' war horses, and farther away, the hoarse cries of the Huns came with the wind, intermittently, as if a ghost was crying at night.

Liang Xiao took a long breath, and a stream of heat rose from his waist, rose along the spine, spread out on the back, and poured into his arms.After resting in the middle of the night, he has now recovered to [-]% of his usual level. Although his muscles are still a little sore, he feels very clear.He could feel the night wind blowing over his skin, he could feel the heat wash over his flesh, and it seemed that every hair on his back stood on end, collecting the news from the wind.

In the unbearable torment, Tu Niuer finally sneaked to the side of the Hun after spending two meals.Sensing the danger, the Huns' horses raised their heads.The Huns on horseback woke up immediately, straightened up vigilantly, gripped the handle of the knife, and looked around.

Liang Xiao held his breath, held the bow with his left hand, and tapped the arrow with his right hand, focusing all his attention on the Huns.

There was silence all around, and the Huns breathed a sigh of relief, and pushed back the half-drawn knife again. The knife rubbed against the scabbard, making a soft hissing sound.

At this moment, Tu Niu'er suddenly sprang out from the grass, ran a few steps, and jumped up.

The war horse was startled, swung its neck violently, turned around and was about to leave.The Huns suddenly woke up, quickly drew out their sabers, and slashed at Tu Niu'er.With a flick of his left hand, Tu Niu'er blocked the Huns' arm, put his arms around the Huns' neck, and took him off the horse.The two fell to the ground, and Tu Niu'er covered the Hun's mouth with one hand, and pinched him hard on the neck with the other.

The Hun whined twice, tilted his head, and his body went limp.

Without saying a word, Tu Niuer picked up the Huns and ran back.

The Huns' horses alarmed the others, and the Huns who were scattered nearby saw the empty-saddle horses and immediately realized that something was wrong.They soon found Tu Niu'er who was galloping. While blowing the horn to sound the alarm, they drew their bows and set arrows, and urged their horses to chase after him.Tu Niu'er didn't even look back, and no longer concealed his figure, he carried the prisoner on his shoulders and ran with all his strength.Arrows whizzed around him, but he didn't care.

Even so, carrying a person still affected his speed. In just a few breaths, the Huns rode their horses and chased after Tu Niu'er.

Liang Xiao suddenly opened his eyes, stood up from the grassland, his bent body straightened quickly, leaned back slightly, and shot an arrow.

"Whoosh!" The Huns who had just chased behind Tu Niu'er were shot down by an arrow.
