Chapter 399

Surrounding the Aries King was his most elite royal cavalry. Whether it was equipment or personal qualities, they were not comparable to ordinary Hun knights.●⌒, when they heard Gongsun Rongnu's extremely arrogant roar, they immediately responded and raised their shields to protect the Aries King.

"Tu tu tu!" A sound like a bean-like explosion sounded, and a powerful crossbow arrow shot on the shield. Only a few branches passed through the gap and shot the knight behind the shield, causing a muffled groan. A knight fell off his horse and then disappeared into the rolling iron stream.

Although the Aries King was not injured, he was really surprised. The two sides were more than a hundred steps apart, and the arrows shot by the Han army were still so strong. This was not an ordinary bow, but the most powerful weapon crossbow of the Han people!

The Han and the Huns had been fighting for many years, and the Huns had always firmly gained the advantage, but the Han crossbows were the weapon that made them the most troublesome. This weapon with a long range and high accuracy was undoubtedly the nemesis of the Huns. Especially for the generals with high power, being targeted by the crossbowman was definitely not a pleasant thing.

However, due to the rate of fire and weight, the Han army knights rarely equipped with crossbows and would rather use a bow with faster fire speed like the Huns. This is definitely the first time in the memory of Aries King.

King Aries felt a chill rising from his back spine and rushed straight to the back of his head. He did not dare to neglect, and subconsciously took off the shield that he used very little to protect his face, and shouted loudly: "Be careful of Han Dog's crossbow arrow!"

As soon as he heard the word "cross arrow", almost all the Hun knights were shocked and raised their shields together.

Looking at the shield like fish scales from afar, Gongsun Rongnu smacked his lips regretfully. Even without Liang Xiao's previous warning, he knew that the Aries King's personal guard camp was not easy to mess with, and there was only one way to die when he fought head-on. Taking advantage of the opportunity of the Huns to prepare crossbow arrows, he accelerated again, and passed by dozens of steps away from the Aries King.

Before the Aries king could take a breath, Liang Xiao arrived, and both sides shot a rain of arrows. In a moment, dozens of people were each shot.

In front of Liang Xiao and others' superb archery skills, even the most elite guard camp of Aries King did not take any advantage. Aries King was targeted by Liang Xiao, and pierced the shield through his arm with one arrow, screaming in pain. Liang Xiao was also hit by two arrows, one arrow hitting the waist and ribs, and one arrow hitting the shoulders, and blood gushed out. Although he had iron armor to protect his body, Liang Xiao still felt that it was unbearable.

Both sides passed by.

Although he failed to kill the Aries King in front of the battle, the Han army rushed to the front of the Aries King with great force, which had a great impact on the psychology of the Huns and greatly affected the morale. Liang Xiao and others took this opportunity to fight out of the Huns' formation.

After seeing nothing, Liang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes turned black and he almost fell off the horse's back. Tu Niuer quickly supported him and shouted: "A Xiao. A Xiao!"

"I'm fine." Liang Xiaoqiang calmed down, checked his injuries, and confirmed that his life was fine. "Quickly, leave the battlefield and reorganize the formation."

"Here." The flag-holder shook the flag, the drummer beat the war drum, and passed Liang Xiao's order out.

The Han soldiers who had left the contact with the Huns gathered again to Liang Xiao and rushed to the battlefield twice in succession. Most of them were injured to varying degrees. At a rough look, at least four or five hundred people died in battle, and nearly half of the war horses were missing. However, the morale was still strong, and the soldiers were joking loudly. They deliberately acted indifferent, as if they could enter the battle again at any time.

But Liang Xiao knew that in one go, he would lose again and lose three times. They had faced the Huns head-on twice in a row. Their physical strength had been exhausted. If they did it again, the casualties would increase sharply, and they might even be wiped out. These were carefully selected elites. If they were all broken here, the Han army would greatly damage their vitality.

He ordered to leave the battlefield, stay alert, speed up time to eat, drink and recover his strength. At the same time, check the injuries and carry out emergency treatment.

Liang Xiao temporarily left the battlefield, but the battlefield did not remain silent because of this, and the battle became more intense.

The Aries King and Li Xi collided head-on and killed each other.

Although Li Xi came on a long distance and lacked physical strength, he was ecstatic when he first arrived at the battle formation. The hope of being a marquis was right in front of him. How could he not fight his life? He ordered the drums to beat the soldiers, and rushed forward and attacked fiercely, with a force as he was as fast as the tigers in the mountains.

The Aries King had just been penetrated by Liang Xiao and was shot in his arm by Liang Xiao. He was bleeding and could not even lift his shield. Then he met Li Xi, who was exploding in the small universe. He was very passive and was very passive. He did not even exert his strength, but was seized by Li Xi.

The two sides stirred up together and fought back and forth.

Just as the Aries King barely blocked Li Xi's rush and was about to take advantage of the number of people to counterattack, Li Guang led the 4,000 elite cavalry of the central army to the battlefield. After a brief observation of the battlefield situation, Li Guang immediately entered the battle and led his troops to rush to the left wing of the Aries King.

The Aries King's left wing had only three thousand cavalry, and his strength was average. He suffered losses as soon as he fought with Li Guang, retreated step by step, and suffered heavy casualties.

Li Guang made a big spur and broke into the Aries' central army and rushed to the Aries' right wing again to relieve Li Xi's worries.

Seeing Li Guang's battle flag, King Aries was even more discouraged. Among the generals stationed in the Han army, Li Guang was the most famous. When he appeared here, the Han army would never have only a few thousand cavalry. Judging from the forces he had seen, the Han army had at least 10,000 cavalry. In terms of military strength, he no longer had any obvious advantage. If he continued to fight, it would definitely be a loss. If he didn't do it well, it would be a crushing defeat.

It is definitely not a wise idea to pay such a heavy price to save Lou Fanwang.

The Aries King was timid and did not want to fight again. He sounded the horn and prepared to withdraw from the battlefield.

The Huns began to adjust their formation and prepare to retreat. Li Guang and Li Xi refused to give up. They rushed over thousands of miles and hid in Tushenze for so long, in order to severely damage the Aries King. Now that they finally caught the main force of the Aries King, how could they let him escape unstoppable?

The sound of war drums echoed again, and it rang over the battlefield. Li Guang ordered all the soldiers to attack with all their might.

Inspired by the sound of war drums, the morale of the Han soldiers once again rose, and they rushed tirelessly and repeatedly, entangled the Huns.

The Aries King wanted to retreat and could not complain.

At the same time, Cheng Bushi also took the initiative to launch an attack.

King Aries left behind 10,000 cavalry to monitor Cheng Bushi, which was actually just an imaginary number. In fact, less than 7,000 people were less than 7,000 troops, and it was the troops that had been attacking Cheng Bushi before, both physically and morale were insufficient. The Huns were used to the Han army to defend the formation, so King Aries was so relieved that these exhausted soldiers who were not strong enough to monitor Cheng Bushi.

Unfortunately, he completely miscalculated the plan. Cheng didn't know how to defend himself, which did not mean that he would not attack. In order to restrain the Huns as much as possible and share some pressure for Li Guang, Cheng Bushi didn't even have time to wait until the ten thousand invaders on the other side of the river were in place and launched a brazen attack.

The left-behind Huns were very surprised. They did not dare to defend Cheng Buzhi head-on, and could only use the cavalry's speed advantage to constantly harass the Han army and delay their progress.

Cheng Buzhi was unmoved and led the army straight to the main battlefield. Seeing this, the Huns did not dare to be careless. If the Han army's infantry and cavalry gathered together and their power increased greatly, the Aries King would definitely kill him. In desperation, he forced an attack regardless of the advantages and disadvantages of both sides in the formation battle.

The Huns' attack was just in time. He ordered the Han army to use dense crossbows to cover and shoot, then use swords, shields, and spearmen to force their breakthrough and push forward. Although the speed was slow, it was unstoppable.

Batches of Huns fell under the Han army's arrow formation, and batches of Huns were killed in front of the Han army formation. The Han army roared like thunder and a rainbow, stepping on the bodies of the Huns and attacking and advancing in the blood of the Huns.

From the Sino-Japanese War to the late afternoon, Cheng Buzhi led his army to break through the three lines of defense of the Huns, killed four or five thousand people, and advanced for more than ten miles, but still did not see the main battlefield. He sent several groups of scouts one after another, but never received any exact news. The scouts said that tens of thousands of cavalry on both sides were involved and could not see clearly.

Cheng Buzhi was anxious and turned around for several times, waved his big hand hard.

"Please take a break and prepare for the night battle."

The chief Chen Anping was about to say something when the ground under his feet suddenly trembled. Chen Anping's face changed and he snatched an empty arrow pouch with the mouth facing down and his ears were pressed against the bottom of the arrow pouch, listening carefully.

"What's wrong?" Cheng Buzhi subconsciously clenched his hand, his heartbeat like a drum.

"A lot of cavalry are coming." Chen Anping looked flustered, his face turned pale, and his lips were dry. "Many cavalry."

Cheng Buzhi's mouth twitched, and an indescribable sadness surged in his heart. A large number of cavalry rushed to the scene, and naturally the Huns won. Li Guang had only 15,000 cavalry and rushed to attack thousands of miles, but the Aries King had 20,000 cavalry, and he waited for his work, so there was no suspense about the outcome.

"Li Guang..." Cheng Buzhi sighed to the sky again. Although he and Li Guang have different personalities, they are like each other. Seeing Li Guang suffer a crushing defeat, he is unable to help, which is really desperate. He regrets it.

"If Wei Qing and others are here, there may be a chance."

"General, this is not your fault. If Wei Qing and others don't let him support Han Gong, how could Han Gong be in a stalemate with Lou Fan King?"

"Oh, I'll say a thousand and say ten thousand, or..." Cheng Buzhi shook his head. "It's still our cavalry that has too few."

Chen Anping also sighed, and was about to remind Cheng Buzhi, so he asked him to order his retreat, when the sound of intense war drums sounded in the distance.

Chen Anping was stunned and exchanged a look with Cheng Buzhi, and his eyes lit up. The sound of war drums? Didn’t the Huns come, but the Han army?

At this time, a fast horse ran from a distance, and the knight turned over and dismounted in front of the formation, rolled and crawled over.

"General, great victory, great victory, General Li Guang defeated King Aries and was coming."

"What?" Cheng Buzhi shouted, grabbed the scout's collar and lifted him up. "What did you say?"

The scout was mentally prepared and laughed: "General, we won, we won. General Li Guang defeated the main force of the Aries King, and we won."

"Ha! Hahaha!" Cheng Buzhi opened his eyes wide and looked back at Chen Anping. Chen Anping also had his eyes wide open, and his face showed ecstasy. The two laughed out loud at the same time. Cheng Buzhi let go of the scout, pulled out the long sword from his waist, and let out a long roar.

"Beat the drum, the whole army attacked, entangled the Huns, and killed them all."—
