Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 653 Corpse
Among all the knights around Liang Xiao, in terms of training and strength, they were neither from Dawan nor the Great Xiajia Cavalry, but the personal guard cavalry headed by Pang Shuo, Alexander and others.

From the day they followed Liang Xiao, they were real professional soldiers, and they had nothing to care about except training.They have received training from Huan Yuan and Zhong Liqi, and they never relax. As long as they have time, they must train for at least one hour a day to maintain their state.

As for their individual targeted exercises, they do not count.

It can be said that they are not only the real professional soldiers of this era, but also the strongest fighters deserved.In contrast, even Amazon female warriors who take fighting as their vocation may not be able to surpass them.On the point of how to train for results, no one has a deeper understanding than Liang Xiao.

Relatively speaking, Liang Xiao's investment in them is also amazing.Armor, weapons, war horses, daily food and clothing, which one does not cost money?There are many rich generals in Chang'an, but Liang Xiao is the only one who is willing to spend so much money on Buqu, and because of this, he has trained an elite who looks down on the world.

What's even more commendable is that these people have never left Liang Xiao and never left the battlefield since they joined Liang Xiao's personal guard camp.They were familiar with Liang Xiao's tactics, and Liang Xiao's every move. They didn't even need Liang Xiao to speak. As long as Liang Xiao made a move, they knew what Liang Xiao was going to do.

They seemed to have become a part of Liang Xiao's body.

Brothers are of the same heart, and their profits cut through gold.When hundreds of well-trained warriors advance and retreat, live and die together, almost no one can block their full blow.As soon as the two sides came into contact, Liang Xiao, Firefox and other archers and crossbowmen showed the powerful power of this cooperation, shooting and killing the opponent's general in the first place.

The commander fell from his horse, and the Huns were shocked and confused.

Without giving them any buffer time, Liang Xiao and others rushed into the formation.Pang Shuo brandished a long knife, slashing left and right, killing several people in a row. He rushed to the front of the Huns' general flag, raised the knife in his hand, and cut the Huns' general flag and the Hun warrior holding the flag in two with one knife. .

There was a sound of "crash, la la", the battle flag of the Huns fell, and a long-sworded man slapped his horse to catch up, tore off the battle flag, picked it up on the tip of the knife, and walked away.

A charge, cut the general, capture the flag!
As soon as the two sides touched each other, Liang Xiao and the others cut off the formation of the Huns mercilessly like a huge sword, leaving behind dozens of corpses and blood all over the ground.As soon as they rushed out of the Huns' array, they immediately turned their horses' heads and chased the panic-stricken Huns again, shooting a shower of arrows.

At the beginning, they ran across each other, and both sides could shoot easily. The Huns' range was slightly inferior, but they had an advantage in numbers.Now Liang Xiao and the others quickly turned around and circled to the right side of the Huns. The Huns immediately fell into the predicament of being pursued.If they want to shoot Liang Xiao, they have to turn around, but it's not so easy for a team of hundreds of people to turn around, let alone Liang Xiao and others chasing closely, it is impossible to make them turn around.

In a blink of an eye, the Huns fell into a complete passivity.There are only two things they can do: speed up and escape, and get rid of Liang Xiao and others.Turn back to fight and kill a bloody path.

Unfortunately, neither choice is a good choice.

The Huns who turned back to fight soon realized that in terms of close combat, they were no match for these Han knights in iron armor holding spears and knives. The spear went straight to the chest.Even if you are lucky and hit the opponent, you will not be able to cause any effective damage to the opponent.

As for escaping, escaping, which the Huns were best at, seemed so powerless at this moment.Their war horses were not as fast as Dawan's horses, and their bows and arrows were not as far away as their opponents. What's more, no matter how they twisted their bodies, it was difficult to find a comfortable shooting position.

Liang Xiao and the others were like maggots attached to the bones, firmly occupying the right rear shooting dead corner of the Huns,

The two sides galloped in pursuit on the grassland, and the Huns shot down one by one, and the team decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye.When the Huns finally turned their horses and ran back, there were only about half of the thousand riders left, and the others had fallen off their horses, some were still fleeing in panic on the battlefield, and some had already fallen in a pool of blood.

Liang Xiao and the others chased until more than [-] steps in front of the Huns, and then slowly reined in their horses. They resumed the lazy look just now, and walked back slowly.From time to time, someone bent down to pick up a spear, or a bag of arrows, and hung it on his horse's back.

The Huns were dumbfounded and couldn't believe their eyes.

More than a hundred riders against a thousand riders, with one against ten, can they win so easily?
His forehead was full of cold sweat.He had a feeling that even without reinforcements, Liang Xiao was strong enough to face him, and even if he couldn't win, Liang Xiao could retreat calmly. It was impossible for him to catch Liang Xiao.

If Liang Xiao's subordinates are all so strong, it would be a dream for Lie Jiaomi to defeat him. Even the Youxian King who holds [-] elite riders is not sure of victory, and he has no chance of winning with only [-] riders. hope.Fortunately, there was no impulsiveness just now, otherwise he might be the same as the commander-in-chief now, unable to come back.

Nanpu ordered the whole army to be on alert and not to attack at will.

Hearing the horn of the Huns, Liang Xiao let out a long breath.He returned to the hillside again, dismounted and rested.

As the sky darkened, the scouts sent by Nandou returned.They brought shocking news: less than ten miles behind Liang Xiao, among the large river valleys, there were corpses everywhere, and the corpses of Wusun people could not be seen at a glance.The Wusun people had already been defeated by Liang Xiao, and they were retreating to the east, and the coalition forces formed by the Yuezhi people, Dawan people and Sai people were chasing them.

Nanpu didn't dare to have any unrealistic extravagant hopes, he decided to wait for King Youxian to arrive.

-

Youxian King is more than seventy miles behind Nandou.

He brought cattle, sheep and luggage, and his marching speed was limited, but he did not intend to rush to the battlefield quickly from the bottom of his heart.In his opinion, Liang Xiao and Lie Jiaomi are evenly matched, and it is difficult to tell the result within two or three days.After two or three days, no matter who wins, he just rushed to the battlefield to pick up the fruit.

But he never expected that Liang Xiao would defeat Lie Jiaomi in just one day, and he won a complete victory.

Hearing the news sent by Nandou, King Youxian's first reaction was that Nandou was timid and talking nonsense.This is not uncommon. Among the generals of the Huns, there are not a few who are afraid of the Han people, especially Liang Xiao. When the battle is unfavorable, exaggerating the strength of the opponent to cover up their own incompetence is the most common method, including King Youxian himself. Good at this set.

What puzzled King Youxian the most was the place where Lie Jiaomi and Liang Xiao fought.Didn't they agree to withdraw two or three hundred li to the east, so that the Huns could intercept Liang Xiao's retreat? Lie Jiaomi's head was kicked by a horse, and he came back again?

King Youxian was worried, and sent envoys to the difficult camp to inquire about the specific situation.The envoy was sent out, and the more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became, and he ordered the whole army to be on alert, especially the supply battalion to be careful.Before the soldiers and horses arrived, the cattle and sheep went first. In the last Henan battle, the Huns withdrew their troops last because Liang Xiao attacked their supply camp.

After several years, King Youxian did not want to repeat the same mistakes.

-

Liang Xiao immediately ran to the river, put down the clairvoyance in his hand, and sighed softly.

He wanted to sneak attack at night, but after looking around, he gave up.The Xiongnu general who commanded the army was cautious enough, and the camp was firmly guarded, leaving him no chance.A forcible surprise attack will only bring humiliation to oneself, and in case of an ambush, the entire army may even be wiped out.

Tu Niu'er and the Amazon female warrior Seya, fully armed, followed closely behind, watching their surroundings vigilantly.The night was dim, and the distance from the Huns was less than [-] steps, and they were already close to the Huns' warning circle, and the battle might break out at any time.They have heavy responsibilities and dare not be careless.

Liang Xiao was relatively relaxed.He has extraordinary hearing ability, and he is like a fish in water under the cover of night. If there are Huns approaching, he can detect them out of range and strike first.

"Let's go, go back." Liang Xiao raised his head to look at the sky.

"Here." Tu Niu'er responded and turned the horse's head.He took two steps, and suddenly pulled Liang Xiao's arm, one hand was already on the knife ring. "Bo Ming, in the middle of the river."

Liang Xiao looked towards the middle of the river, and saw a black figure floating in the middle of the river, vaguely like a person, rippling with the waves.He was also a little nervous, and subconsciously took off the bow and put on an arrow.Seya also turned around and raised her shield to protect the backs of Liang Xiao and Tu Niu'er.

Liang Xiao looked at it intently for a moment, and was relieved to see that the black shadow did not respond.He looked into the distance and suddenly realized.

"It's a corpse, a corpse floating upstream."

Tu Niuer also found out.In the middle of the river, there are more and more black shadows one after another, moving slowly to the west.

Unknowingly, the individual corpses became one piece, covering most of the river surface, and some were washed to the bank, entangled in water plants, undulating up and down, but unable to leave.Some collided with each other, but there was no sound.

Liang Xiao's back felt chills. There were so many corpses, drifting silently with the tide, it looked creepy.And this tragic situation is inseparable from him. Whether it is Wusun people, Dawan people, Sai people, or Yuezhi people, they all died because of the war he initiated.

Liang Xiao was stunned for a while, until Tu Niu'er realized that something was wrong with him and yelled a few times before he came back to his senses.

"What's wrong?" Tu Niuer asked in a low voice.

"Oh, it's nothing." Liang Xiao turned his horse's head and galloped lightly towards the campsite.Tu Niu and Seya also quickly followed. After leaving the Huns' security circle, they let their horses gallop all the way back to the camp.

"Who? Who?" The guarded soldier stood up from the grass and asked sharply, holding a crossbow in his hand. The sharp arrows of the crossbow shone like stars.

"Me!" Liang Xiao raised the bow in his hand and shook it.

"It turns out that the prince is back." The soldier greeted with a smile, then turned around and was about to go back to his hiding place.

Liang Xiao reined in the horse. "Go back and rest first, and tell Alexander that I'm back."

The soldier froze for a moment, but turned and left without asking any further questions.Liang Xiao got off his horse, found the individual pit dug by the soldier, and lay down in it.Tu Niu'er was puzzled. "Bo Ming, what's wrong with you?"

"You guys go back first, I have something to think about."

"What can't go back and think about it, but have to think about it here?" Tu Niu'er was a little anxious.It was very dangerous for Liang Xiao to do so. In the event of an accident, he and Seya alone would not be able to protect Liang Xiao comprehensively.

"There are too many people going back, I can't calm down." Liang Xiao smiled. "You also stay away, at least fifty steps away, don't let me hear the sound of your breathing."

Seeing Liang Xiao's insistence, Tu Niu'er had no choice but to ask Seya to go back and call a few more people, at least in several directions.He was more than ten steps away from Liang Xiao, found a place to lie down, looked up at the sky, and seemed to be asleep.After following Liang Xiao for so long, he has already developed this way of resting.As long as there is any trouble, he will be able to open his eyes immediately and go into battle.

Liang Xiao put his head in his hands, looked at the twinkling cold stars in the night sky, and listened to the rushing river beside him, his mind was full of corpses.

-

The next morning, the envoy came back and not only confirmed the news that Nandou had sent before, but also had new news.He saw Liang Xiao's battle flag with his own eyes, and got an iron arrow.King Youxian had seen this kind of iron arrow before. When he was in Dabancheng, a similar iron arrow shot and killed many Huns generals, leaving a deep psychological shadow on the Huns.

Looking at Tie Jian, King You Xian realized that Nan Dou was not lying, he was really fighting Liang Xiao, and he had already lost for a while. 1000 people attacked, but they were killed by Liang Xiao, who had only a hundred riders, and suffered heavy casualties.

Youxian King is puzzled: Why did Lie Jiaomi change his previous battle plan and take the initiative to find Liang Xiao for a decisive battle? When did they fight and how did the battle go? Was Liang Xiao's loss too big?

Everything is a mystery.

Just when King Youxian was thinking hard, trying to find Liang Xiao's flaw, someone came to report that a large number of corpses were seen in the river.

King Youxian was taken aback, and hurried out of the tent and came to the river.

Sure enough, the river was full of corpses, one on top of the other, so that the end could not be seen at a glance, and the entire river surface was covered.

King You Xian only felt a chill hit his forehead.Even though he had experienced hundreds of battles and seen countless dead people, he was stunned by this scene.

"When did you find out?"

"While fetching water this morning." A soldier was leading the horse, his face was pale, and he looked like a corpse that had been soaked in the river for a long time climbed onto the bank. "I came to feed the horses, and when I saw corpses in the river, I wanted to find a clean place. I didn't expect... I didn't expect that there were more and more corpses, and there were more and more corpses in the whole river."

"Who is it?"

"Almost all of them are from Wusun."

"From Wusun?" King You Xian's heart moved, and he looked up into the distance.The same is true for the upper reaches of the Yili River. There are densely packed corpses. Roughly, there are eight hundred if not one thousand.He asked people to pull up several relatively well-armored corpses, inspect them carefully, and soon found an iron arrow.

The unique iron crossbows of the Han people, these people should be the Wusun people who were defeated by Liang Xiao and others mentioned by Nandou, and the guards of Liejiaomi.

King Youxian thought for a while, and suddenly woke up like a dream, and couldn't help stamping his feet and cursing.

"This idiot, Nandou, was frightened by Liang Xiao and wasted a great opportunity for nothing. Someone, pass my order, and order Nandou to launch an attack immediately and trap Liang Xiao. Guards, set out with me, at full speed go ahead!"
