Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 321 Who Said I Want To Escape?
Liang Xiao encountered the most difficult battle since his expedition.

After fighting for more than a month, he was not far from Dunhuang and was about to enter Yanzhi Mountain when he encountered a group of about 300 Hun cavalry.Seeing the huge disparity in the strength of the two sides, Liang Xiao didn't think too much about it, and rushed forward as soon as he gave an order, ready to fight quickly as usual and wipe out these more than [-] cavalry.

But he didn't expect that these three hundred riders were not only not weak, but also not alone. They were followed by more than 1000 people.Seeing Liang Xiao and his party, they blew their horns to fight, and at the same time sent knights for help.

Liang Xiao and the others followed the already familiar tactics, using sharp archers and spear cavalry to break through the formation, mounted infantry followed up, Pu Lei light cavalry concealed the kill, and achieved more than half of the kills in just two charges. When preparing to wipe out these Huns, more than 1000 horsemen came galloping.

By the time Liang Xiao realized the danger, he could no longer escape.The two armies were entangled and could not be separated.When the trapped Huns saw the arrival of reinforcements, their morale was greatly boosted.

The two sides fought together, rushing back and forth, although Liang Xiao and others killed a lot with their strong armor and sharp blades, their own casualties also increased rapidly.Faced with this situation, Liang Xiao didn't dare to fight, and ordered to forcibly break through.

With Xie Guanglong, Pang Shuo and others as the front, the whole army forcibly broke through the interception of the Huns and rushed to the south slope.There was a pass there, Liang Xiao was going to use this terrain to take a breather for a while, and then look for an opportunity to counterattack.He has been fighting for such a long time, and he has always bullied the weak with the weak and the weak. In addition to the lack of tacit cooperation in the first few battles and heavy casualties, the casualties in the next few dozen battles are usually calculated in single digits, and he is still the number one. More than a hundred people were injured in a battle for the first time.

He couldn't swallow this breath, and had to get the place back.

"Pawns get off their horses and line up!" Liang Xiao rushed up the hillside, and before the horses stopped, he jumped off the horses and grabbed behind a big rock. "Sigma, Sigma, get the arrow!"

"Here we come, here we come," Sigma yelled, jumping off his horse.Her leg was injured and she almost fell to the ground when she dismounted.She scrambled to Liang Xiao's side and handed over the quiver.Liang Xiao put the quiver in front of his body, drew out four arrows, put one on the string and three in his fingers, and aimed at the Huns who were chasing after him down the mountain, shooting four arrows in succession.

"Swish, swish, swish!" Four sharp arrows galloped away, flying more than sixty steps, and shot two Hun knights who were rushing in front.The Hun knight turned over and fell off his horse, blocking his companions behind, and the chasing formation was chaotic for a moment.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, seven mercenary archers also occupied favorable terrain, condescending, and blocked.The eight bows rose and fell one after another, the sound of the strings was like a harp, and the arrows fell like rain, and finally intercepted the Huns, covering the Pulei people and rushing into the mountain pass.

Pujia was injured, with an arrow in his chest and thigh, and blood flowed all over his body.He jumped off his horse and rushed to Liang Xiao's side. "Thank you for saving my life, my lord."

"You and I are comrades-in-arms fighting side by side, as it should be." Liang Xiao put away his bow and took two breaths. "How is the injury?"

"Thanks to the armor given by the lord, it didn't hurt the vitals." Pu Jia pulled out the arrow and untied the armor, and two guards rushed up to bandage him.After more than a dozen battles, Liang Xiao's subordinates lost more than 30 people.He buried the Greek soldiers on the spot, and transferred their armor to Pujia and others.Pu Lei people are poorly equipped, and getting iron armor is like a treasure.

"Does King Pulei know these people?"

Pu Lei shook his head. "My tribe is too weak to go this far. However, judging from the banners of these people, it should be the Hunxie King's tribe. That man is not an ordinary Hun, at least he is a big family."

Liang Xiao is no stranger to the name of Danghu, and Li Danghu's Danghu means this.When he was born, it happened that Li Guang went out to fight and shot and killed a Hun householder, so he was given this name as a commemoration.Da Danghu is more powerful than Danghu, and he is also one of the most senior officials among the Huns. It is not surprising that he can lead more than a thousand soldiers, and may even be more.

"My lord, we are outnumbered, we should withdraw." Panting heavily, Pujia looked at the subordinates who surrounded him distressedly.In the battle just now, he lost more than 60 people, which was the most in previous battles.

"Don't worry." Liang Xiao thought nervously as he looked at the Huns who were rearranging under the hillside.

This setback poured cold water on his feverish mind and made him realize the danger of going deep alone.Not only was there no reinforcements to rely on, but the effect of reconnaissance was also greatly reduced due to the rapid march.The two sides met unexpectedly, he was unexpected, and the Huns were also unprepared.These more than a thousand riders should be all the strength of the Huns, and there will be no more Huns in a short time.

He still has a chance to turn defeat into victory.If he escaped like this, he would not be able to replenish his horses and rations, and how far he could go was really hard to say.He even felt that if he left like this, the Pulei people would give up before long.

He had to win this battle and defeat the big Huns.

"Thank you!"

"My lord." Xie Guanglong covered his armor and rushed over.His upper body was covered in blood.As the sharp edge of the entire formation, he always charged forward and suffered the most injuries, even if he was wearing iron armor.Liang Xiao glanced at him, hesitant.

"How about the injury, can you still fight?"

"It's okay." Xie Guanglong patted his chest and said carelessly: "This is not an injury, it is my medal. My lord, if there is anything wrong, just say it."

"Take a few people and walk forward to see if there is any other way. If necessary, take a few pawns to defend, and don't let the Huns take advantage of the loopholes."

"Okay." Xie Guanglong responded, turned around and called a few pawns to go.

Liang Xiao called Huangfuqi again, asking him to count how much food was left.If a war horse is seriously injured, it will be slaughtered immediately and used as rations.Gather the wounded soldiers and hurry up to heal them.

Huangfuqi nodded repeatedly, then turned to make arrangements.

"Is your lord going to stand firm?" Pu Jia looked at Liang Xiao busy and became uneasy.Going deep into the hinterland of the Xiongnu, with no food and grass inside, and no reinforcements outside, it is obviously not a good choice to stick to it.In Pujia's view, at this time, the Huns should evacuate as soon as possible before the siege is formed, and escape as far as they can.

"What does your Majesty mean?" Liang Xiao sat down and took off his arrows.The long shooting made his fingers bloodshot, and it took a lot of effort to remove the arrow.While moving his fingers to dredge the blood vessels, he chatted with Pujia to relax the nerves that were so tense that they were about to break.

"Shouldn't we hurry up and leave?"

"Escape with these more than 1000 Huns?" Liang Xiao cocked his mouth at the Huns at the corner of the mountain. "This is the pasture of King Hunxie's tribe. Where can we escape?"

Pujia was speechless, and his face became even uglier.

"Your Majesty, don't worry." Liang Xiao laughed. "Now that we have favorable terrain, it will not be so easy for him to take my head. Did you see, these veterans are very excited."

Pu Jia turned his head to look at the pawns who had finished forming, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

More than 100 infantry lined up at the mountain pass, two rows in front and back, extending to the hillsides on both sides.They put on muscular iron armor with obvious Greek style, put on bronze helmets, held large shields and spears, and the formation was strict and full of murderous aura.

Along the way, they all broke through and pursued with powerful cavalry battles. They never had the opportunity to fight on foot, and Pujia had never seen the power of these Greek veterans.At best, they would follow behind the knights and charge, they would not even shoot arrows, the effect of the momentum was greater than the actual effect.Pu Lei people are somewhat disapproving, and they themselves are often mentally ill.

Now, they lined up to fight, and immediately showed a completely different mental outlook. They were all full of energy and full of fighting spirit, as if they had suddenly become ten years younger and returned to the time when they were young and strong, and even their voices said A little bit of pride.

Pujia is also a person who has experienced many battles. Looking at the aura of the veterans, he knew that they were a group of infantry with strong combat effectiveness.With the ability of the Huns to fight on foot, it is almost impossible to break through their formation.

"But, will the Huns take the initiative to attack?"

"Yes." Liang Xiao grinned happily. "As long as there is enough tempting bait."

"Bait? Are you talking about the property we robbed?" Pu Jia gritted her teeth, feeling distressed.Along the way, although they didn't encounter any tribes with strong financial resources, they still robbed a lot of things.Pujia also exchanged these properties for food to support the tribe in the winter.Now that I heard that Liang Xiao was going to use these things as bait, I couldn't help feeling a little distressed.

"Those things are not enough." Liang Xiao looked at Pujia, and said with a smile: "Pulei King should be worth more than those money, right?"

Pujia was startled, and looked at Liang Xiao in surprise. "My lord, you are not telling the truth, are you?"

"Of course it's true. Not only you are the bait, but I am also the bait." Liang Xiao smiled even more happily. "Didn't you say that he was a big pawn in the King of Hunxie? Both father and son of King Hunxie died in my hands. Do you think this big pawn is interested in taking my head back to make meritorious service?"

Pujia is like waking up from a dream.He stared at Liang Xiao for a long time, and couldn't help shaking his head. "My lord, do you really want to do this? Let the Huns know who you are, and we really can't escape."

"I didn't even intend to escape." Liang Xiao stood up, stretched his arms, and shouted loudly, "Is there anyone out of the mountain? Come and talk."

When the Huns heard his shout, they all looked over.After a while, a knight rode down the hillside.Liang Xiao pulled out the dagger from his waist that he had snatched from Gu Luhu, and handed it to Tu Niu'er.Tu Niuer understood, took the knife and walked down the hillside.

After seeing the dagger, the Hun knight was a little undecided, so he pulled his horse back and talked with the Hun leader for a while.The Huns were very surprised, so they came on horseback to check the dagger in person.After confirming Liang Xiao's identity, the big pawnbroker raised his head and glanced at Liang Xiao on the hillside. His eyes were obviously different, a little more greedy and fanatical, as if seeing a rare treasure.

Liang Xiao grinned with a bit of complacency. "Look, my bait is still very powerful."

Pu Jia twitched her cheeks, speechless.

He thought Liang Xiao was a little crazy.
