Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 416 All in one go

Some people say that the Huns are the ancestors of guerrilla warfare.This really flatters them.According to Liang Xiao's understanding, it might be more accurate to say that they are rogues.

The difference between rogue bandits and guerrilla warfare is that bandits have no principles at all.Guerrilla warfare is different. Guerrilla warfare is just a means, and strike is the goal.In order to accomplish the predetermined strategic goals, sacrifices will be made when necessary.

Seeing that the Han army was ferocious and unprofitable, and the stalemate would cause heavy casualties, the Huns didn't even need to say hello, they turned around and ran away, and scattered like birds and beasts.

In the blink of an eye, the battlefield that was originally filled with killing noises became much quieter.

Liang Xiao was dumbfounded, but he didn't have time to think about it. He shouted, "Change horses! Let's fight again!"

"Here!" The soldiers of the Han army who had just won a big victory said nothing, without saying a word, some jumped on the spare horses, and some rushed to the battlefield without the owner of the horses, and quickly gathered around Liang Xiao, forming a geese formation again, Ready to charge.

Gongsun Rongnu rushed over with his personal guards, holding the head of Quqie, the little Hun king, in his hand, beaming with joy.

"Captain, Captain, I beheaded..."

Liang Xiao lowered his face and shouted loudly: "Take it down for me!"

Pang Shuo jumped off his horse and rushed over with his long legs. He grabbed Gongsun Rongnu by the neck, pulled him off the horse, and dragged him to Liang Xiao.Gongsun Rongnu was taken aback, and even begged for mercy. Seeing this, his personal guards were furious, jumped off their horses one after another, rushed over, drew their swords and bows, and were ready to rob people.Pang Shuo stepped on Gongsun Rongnu's back, held a knife in one hand, looked around, and said with a sneer, "Which one will come first?"

"Stop, stop!" Gongsun Rongnu broke out in a cold sweat and quickly choked his own guard.He had seen Pang Shuo's majesty killing people in front of the battle with his own eyes, and he knew better that the strength of the guards around Liang Xiao was not something his guards could succeed at all.He lay on the ground and cupped his hands again and again. "My lord, killing people is nothing more than nodding your head to the ground, you have to make me understand."

Liang Xiao sneered: "Gongsun Rongnu, as a captain, do you know what your duties are?"

Gongsun Rongnu uttered a sharp zero, momentarily at a loss for words.

Liang Xiao went on to say: "I know you want to be a Marquis, and everyone wants to be a Marquis, but you can't forget about your responsibilities just because you want to be a Marquis. If you want to grab the head, can this battle still be fought? Besides Now, the army has its own system, and more than a hundred generals don’t count meritorious deeds by beheading. As a school lieutenant, it’s too much for you to grab heads with your subordinates? You want to make meritorious deeds, don’t the others not want to be decapitated?”

Gongsun Rongnu woke up like a dream, and patted the ground in frustration.He is a school lieutenant in command of thousands of people, whether he cut off Qu Qie's head himself will not affect his military merits, and if someone else does it, maybe there will be an extra chance to be a marquis.If he does this, it is tantamount to eating alone, which is definitely not a wise move.

"Since you want to grab the head so much, I will give you a chance." Liang Xiao pointed to the main force of the Xiongnu approaching in the distance. "Be a brave fighter, charge again. If you can break through the formation and come back, his head will still be yours. If you can't break through the formation..."

Liang Xiao sneered and did not continue.Gongsun Rongnu knew and acted bravely.The Han army had come in a long-distance attack, and had just experienced a fierce battle. They continued to fight without rest, and the danger was greatly increased.If he can't break the formation, he will die in the formation, and there is no need to say anything.

Liang Xiao shook his horsewhip and snorted, "Dare you?"

Gongsun Rongnu was aroused, and shouted loudly: "It's just a few thousand Huns, why dare not? My lord, do you dare?"

"Don't worry, I will watch you break the formation or die in battle." Liang Xiao shook his hand, signaling Pang Shuo to let go of Gongsun Rongnu.Gongsun Rongnu jumped up, patted the dust off his body, his eyes were fierce. "Does your lord mean what you say?"

Liang Xiao has been in the army for so long, he knows that none of these guys are good.It's not impossible to reason with them, but the first thing to compare is ruthlessness, whoever is more ruthless will have the confidence to speak.He is not from a family, and he has no old department in the army to rely on. If he wants to convince these guys, he will not be able to do it without some brute force.He met Gongsun Rongnu's fierce eyes without concealing his contempt.

"Don't grind like a woman, just step aside if you don't dare. Compete with Lao Tzu? When Lao Tzu cut off the head of King Hunxie, you didn't know where to pick up horse shit."

Everyone laughed.Gongsun Rongnu also touched his head embarrassingly, knowing that he had picked the wrong partner.The young prince in front of him is not a son of a family who was enshrined by the kindness of his father and ancestors. His military exploits were actually cut with a knife, which is much better than himself.

"Since the princes are not afraid, why should I be afraid, Gongsun Rongnu? Brothers, come with me."

Gongsun Rongnu returned to his guards, jumped on his horse, pulled out his horse, and roared angrily, "Break the formation!"

"Break the formation!" The guards were full of fighting spirit, raised their knives and shouted wildly, and followed Gongsun Rongnu to speed up on horseback.

Liang Xiao nodded in satisfaction, and ordered to beat the drums in order to honor Gongsun Rongnu.Without rest, continuous combat and tenacious fighting spirit cannot sustain.He angered Gongsun Rongnu, not to fight for his merits, but to arouse their blood, strive to hold back the Huns, and create opportunities for Li Guang and Li Xi behind.

The drums sounded again, and the soldiers of the Han army took Gongsun Rongnu and others as the front, accelerated again, and killed the main force of the Huns who were getting closer.

Liang Xiao raised his clairvoyance, locked on the big banner of the Huns in the distance, and locked on the Aries King under the big banner.

Aries King suddenly felt a burst of shock.He heard the sound of war drums and the sound of horseshoes getting closer, and he had an ominous premonition.

He has four thousand cavalry, facing the three thousand Han army, even if he can't win quickly, at least he won't lose.But now I only hear the drums of the Han army, but not the horns of Quqiu.The sound of horseshoes was getting closer and louder with the sound of war drums. It was clear that the Han army was approaching rapidly.Where did he go, where did his cavalry go?

King Aries came all the way, thinking that he could easily defeat the three thousand cavalry of the Han army.Unexpectedly, the situation was completely beyond his expectations, and Qu's life and death were unknown, but the Han army took the initiative to attack him.

Aries King had no time to think about it, so he was forced to fight.

The horn sounded, and the Huns adjusted their formation to meet Liang Xiao and others.Before they had time to complete their transformation, Gongsun Rongnu, Liang Xiao and others rushed in front of them.Without any hesitation, they went straight to the Aries King under the banner of the Chinese army.

"Kill—" Gongsun Rongnu jumped on his horse again, brandished his saber, and shouted loudly.

"Kill—" Hundreds of ferocious knights shouted and roared forward.

After the actual battle not long ago, seeing the power of multiple attacks, and knowing more about the danger of this charge, the knights under Gongsun Rongnu naturally repeated their old tricks. 150 steps away, the crossbow knight pulled the crossbow trigger and fired the first wave of arrows, then slowed down his horse speed, and seized the time to rewind and reload.

The light cavalry stepped forward, drew the strong bow in their hands, and shot several arrows in one breath.

The distance between the two sides was thirty steps, and the assault cavalry leveled their spears and halberds, and roared out.In order to get in touch with the enemy as soon as possible and reduce casualties, they kicked the horses vigorously and squeezed the horsepower to the extreme.The horses soared into the air with all four hooves, galloping almost close to the ground, kicking up the pasture and trampling the soil, and whipping up a gust of wind, they rushed towards the Huns.

"Boom!" The two sides contacted.

"Pfft!" The iron spear pierced the Huns' body and came out through the body.The soldiers of the Han army let go in time, drew out their swords, and swung them to kill.

"Chi!" The sharp halberd blade cut the neck of the Huns and cut off the arms of the Huns. The halberd was bent into a bow under the force, and then straightened suddenly.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The horses collided, and the knight flew up from the horseback, waving the weapon in his hand, slashing in the air.

The Han army had just won a big victory, their morale was high, and their murderous aura was soaring.However, the Huns were not mentally prepared enough for this battle. The formation had not yet been adjusted, and the speed of the horses was not ready to charge.

Gongsun Rongnu took the lead, tore a gap in the formation of the Huns, and rushed forward quickly.He took a moment to glance back, and found that Liang Xiao was indeed within his line of sight as he said, and was getting closer.

"Kill!" Gongsun Rongnu breathed a sigh of relief and shouted again.

Fighting hand to hand, and attacking ten thousand cavalry with three thousand cavalry, no one dared to be careless.

Xie Guanglong and Alexander rode their horses and galloped wildly, with spears flying in their hands, picking off the Huns one after another.

Paris and others drew the bows in their hands and shot continuously, pouring rain of arrows on the heads of the Huns.

The mercenary archer and Liang Xiao raised their bows and set up their arrows together, shooting continuously.A branch of feathered arrows flew away, and every one of the Huns fell off their horses, almost without exception.Many Xiongnu warriors rushed forward with weapons in hand, determined to fight the Han army, but before they could even see the enemy's face clearly, they were sniped with extremely accurate back arrows.

Including Liang Xiao, the six archers had the precision and power of a crossbowman, and the speed of fire of a strong bow, and their power was no less than that of the sixty crossbowmen.Under their powerful sniping, the Huns' combat power was greatly weakened before they took part in the battle, and they could only carry out long-distance suppression based on their superiority in numbers.

In a short while, many arrows were embedded in the battle armor of Liang Xiao and others. Even with the iron armor protecting the body, the blood stains on the robes were inevitable. The arrow fell off the horse, and was immediately trampled into a pulp by the flying horseshoes.

But they didn't care about these, they just kept shooting and kicking the horses, doing everything possible to maintain the speed, charging forward, not giving the Huns any chance to breathe.

With Liang Xiao's strong support, Gongsun Rongnu saw the Aries King's battle flag, and he shouted excitedly: "Shoot him to death—"

The reloaded crossbow knights raised their crossbows and pulled the crossbow trigger at the Aries King under the banner.

"Swish, swish!" More than a dozen crossbow arrows rushed towards the Aries King with an ominous howl.
