Chapter 162: Conspiracy
August 17th, Ning County, Youzhou.
Half a month ago, Gongsun Zhi defeated the Xianbei Kirby and only led 8,000 elite troops to break out from the ambush and flee to the King of Choushui. He tried to turn back several times to fight with the other party. Gongsun Zhi immediately took his people away, but he didn't go far. He wandered around nearby. When he was waiting for him to set off again, he chased him and shot an arrow and left. For about ten days of crazy rage, when Kirby could pass through Ning County, there were only more than 7,000 people left. While the other party was still following, he could also get supplies from the two cities of Guangning and Ning County. Even if he traveled for a long distance, he could still change horses and come back.
After the battle between the Two Arms Mountain, Kirby's idea of being able to conquer Youzhou has long disappeared. Now he has to face not only Gongsun Zhi's unyielding tactics, but also faces a sharp decline in morale among the army. At present, he has to escape to the royal court. It is a way to save this team. As for the food problem, it is also quite serious. He was burned, killed and snatched along the way, and many places have been pushed into white land. At present, those who can find stuttering are not the only way to attack the city unless they go to hunt in the mountains.
The latter obviously doesn't work.
The hazy clouds rolled in the sky, the sound of insects sounded from the grass, and the occasional sunlight poured down under the leaves, leaning on people's shoulders. The cavalry team of 7,000 people briefly rested under the undulating foothills, and the atmosphere was in a panic.
Around them, the cavalrymen gathered together with people from their respective tribes to eat. Some had residual dry food or jerky on their waists, while others had nothing on their bodies. They watched their companions eat food bit by bit, lick their lips, and then dug some grass roots and put them in their mouths to chew. The bitterness made him frown, and his eyes were still staring at the little food in the other party's hands.
"Gongsun Zhi... is simply a rogue fighting style. Who is like this? Who is like this? If someone can kill him in the future, it's okay to share the Xianbei with me!!"
Kirby could sit on the stone under the tree and grit her teeth. He bandaged an arrow wound on his right arm. He pulled the wound with anger and grinned in pain. He grinned in pain. This was when he was shooting with Gongsun Zhi's cavalry before, he was shot in chaos by a thin, black and thin middle-aged man on the other side. That man must be a good shooting person under Gongsun Zhi's command.
"... Shanyu, it's useless to say that these things are now. We are still within Ning County. For half a month, Gongsun Zhi has been hanging behind us. He always feels that he is waiting for the best opportunity." On the other side of the stone, Suo Nu broke the small amount of jerky left in two pieces and handed them over.
Here, Kirby can take over: "What opportunity?"
“When we are exhausted…”
"...Recalling the battle between the Two Arms Mountain, if I had made up my mind to eat the hundreds of people first and then fight with Gongsun Zhi for a melee, I would not have been as embarrassed as I am today!"
"As I said before, I must find a way to confuse the white wolf's sight before I can escape. As long as I pass this level, the Shanyu will return to the royal court or return to the heartland of the Xianbei and regain his power to make the wolf dare not act rashly."
With a gentle analysis, Kirby could look at the other person, breaking the dried meat with his fingers, "...confusing the sight..." He thought, as he narrowed his eyes, someone screamed in the resting team over there. A Xianbei cavalry killed another soldier, snatched the food from the other person's hand, and put it into his mouth with all his eyes. His eyes were fiercely glaring at his companions who were looking at him, warning them not to get close.
The moment he chewed, footsteps sounded behind him. The Xianbei cavalry turned his head, cut off the blade, and blood spurted out, and the body was still thrown to the ground with food in it. Kirby could purse his lips and glance over everyone: "...I don't mind robbing other people's things, so the things are his, but if you kill someone, Ben Shanyu must make the public law fair, so he will return his life to the Fang. Do you think it's fair?"
In the light, no one dared to speak. Kirby nodded with satisfaction. When the words were about to continue, the scout rushed over: "Shanyu... Gongsun Zhi is here again!"
As if he was stimulated, Kirby quickly rolled onto the horse's back, tightened the reins, and waved: "Everyone got on the horse... run!" The horse's hooves were faster, and the shadows around him also hurriedly got on the horse and ran towards the wider field ahead. When he heard the sound of horse's hooves trampling in the back, Kirby smiled and finally distanced himself from the other party again. As long as he kept such a distance and was not caught up, he could drag him back to the royal court. Thinking of this, he almost burst into laughter.
Then, the roar of trampling on the earth came from their north.
"What's going on-"
"How did the Huns... appear there!"
"…want to be a hunter…or a hunting dog?"
This huge number of Xiongnu cavalry came over and suddenly shot out arrows, preparing to shoot at the Xianbei cavalry who were somewhat caught off guard because of their escape. The dense arrows were covered down, causing a wave of blood. "Stop them!" Kirby could speak out quickly and directed the Suonu to take some of the cavalry over to intercept.
The Huns, who seemed to have ten thousand cavalry, were extremely huge, but after all, they were pieced together from all over the world. Compared with the Xianbei elites who were still accelerating to intercept them, they were a little worse. While running, they hurriedly retracted their bows and laid their swords. The two thousand cavalry led by the Suonu had already crashed into the weak point of the Huns' cavalry and tore open a hole.
Behind, another five thousand Xianbei cavalry suddenly ran out of an arc while galloping, turning around the waves that rushed forward, almost desperately fleeing far away against the battle line.
"Shanyu..." Suonu murmured in the direction of more than 5,000 cavalry escape in a chaotic fight. He only now understood that Kirby could look at him before...
“Hahaha…haha…”
He suddenly laughed, turned around and raised his gun, stabbed a Hun who had killed him to death. When blood splattered on his face, his smile became desolate.
In the military formation, Hu Chuquan looked at the semicircle that had formed to surround the two thousand Xianbei cavalry, killing the wild dogs that occupied their former homeland step by step, and bullying others with tens of thousands of people, but he felt so excited that he approached the front line with excitement.
The central army recalled the words of the middle-aged scholar named Li Wen, and then nodded to a confidant beside him. The latter clamped the belly of the horse and quietly crept into the crowd. Soon after, he pulled up his bow. The moment a cavalry passed through his vision, the bowstring suddenly loosened and the arrow flew over there.
puff!
Hu Chuquan, who was approaching the battle front line, felt a stinging pain in his neck. He reached out to cover it and touched half of the arrow. The other half had penetrated through his neck. He looked at the blood stained on his hands, looked at the direction of the arrow, and his vision shook, and then he fell off his horse with a bang.
On the battlefield of fighting, the shouts of people and the shouts of hard killing turned into buzzing noises that penetrated into the ears of figures on the ground, and the last little hearing disappeared.
