Chapter 261 Hundred Riders Raid the Camp

Everyone laughed loudly and was filled with heroism.∈◆,

Liang Xiao said nothing wrong.

At this moment, although they only have more than a hundred cavalry, they are all real elites. Liang Xiao himself is an archer who has been trying every shot, the mercenaries are carefully selected elites, and the Yuezhi Knights are veterans who have been fighting for many years with Ashana for many years. Even the weakest young knights are the best among their peers. Anyone who stands up in such a team will be above the average level.

The Huns came from afar and set up camp under the city of Suye City, which was extremely arrogant. They did not take the Dayuan people and the Yuezhi people seriously at all. This is no wonder that the Dayuan people were famous for being weak. More than 10,000 infantry and cavalry in the battle, while the Yuezhi people were their defeated generals. They even abandoned the way the grassland people set up camp, adopted the Han people's camp, and hurried in the camp and did not dare to come forward.

Facing such an opponent, how could the Huns not be arrogant?

With such conditions, if you cannot win unexpectedly, then when will it be possible to win unexpectedly?

Liang Xiao ordered everyone to dismount, eat something, wrap horse hooves, and also determine the tactics for the last time.

"Old Xie, Dahu, you are the vanguard, tear the Huns' defense line as fast as possible and advance towards the central army." With the light of fire, Liang Xiao drew a sketch on the ground. "Anyone who stands in front of us, kill him."

"Sir, don't worry." Xie Guanglong rubbed his hands excitedly. "My iron spear has been too long, and today I can finally drink blood."

"Don't fight in love." Liang Xiao reminded: "Our goal is to give the Huns a warning."

"Sir, I know." Xie Guanglong laughed. Seeing Liang Xiao staring at him, he quickly put away his smile and said seriously: "Sir, I really understand. I will never be in love with the battle. Unless they are unlucky and hit my horse."

Liang Xiao nodded and said to the Greek boys such as Alexander: "You follow behind, spread your wings, and use your spear to kill the enemies you want to get close to, creating chaos." He drew two arcs on the ground, just like the sharp blades on both sides of the spearhead. "If Lao Xie, the big tiger is the tip of the spear, you are the sharp blades, responsible for cutting the Huns' camp."

Alexander stared at her big eyes, biting her thick lips, and nodding vigorously.

Liang Xiao turned around and looked at the Yuezhi Knight. "You follow the formation and use bows and arrows to kill a lot. However, your key task is to ride and shoot behind you, not give the Huns the chance to chase us. Whether you can return to the camp smoothly depends on whether your blocking is effective."

The Yuezhi Knights looked at each other and nodded at the same time.

Liang Xiao finally looked at the seven second-class mercenary archers and smiled. "I guess I don't need to say about your mission?"

The archers also laughed, and one of the middle-aged mercenaries nicknamed Firefox said: "Sir, don't worry, we will definitely be worth the money and will never let down every piece of gold you pay. Yesterday I saw the master's sharp shooting. Today on the battlefield, we want to compete with the master in actual combat."

"That's the best." Liang Xiao laughed. "Welcome the challenge."

Liang Xiao finally arranged the mission of the eleven first-class infantry mercenaries. They followed Xie Guanglong and Pang Shuo. If the road ahead was blocked, they would dismount and fight and tear open the defense line of the Huns. If the Greek teenager who was attacking with a spear was injured, they also needed to step forward to replace him to protect the sharpness of the attack.

Everything was arranged and all the horse hooves were wrapped. Liang Xiao and others turned over the horse again, took advantage of the night to circle around and headed towards the Huns' camp. Liang Xiao and Guo Wu were walking in the front, and he had extraordinary ears. He could hear far and could detect the enemy in advance.

Maybe it was because the Huns came from afar and they felt that the rear of the camp was safe and did not require so much effort. Liang Xiao and others walked ten miles outside the Huns' camp before they met the first group of Huns scouts.

Liang Xiao and others were wearing dark cloaks and riding dark war horses, melting into the night, and it was difficult to find out. They came from below, and the horse's hooves were also wrapped in soft steps, effectively eliminating most of the sound of horse's hooves. The Huns felt the abnormality in the distance, but they were not sure what it was.

While they were hesitating, Liang Xiao and others jumped onto the war horse and completed the charge formation.

Liang Xiao bent his bow and shot an arrow, aiming at the dark night ahead. Everyone was stunned when they heard the roar of the arrow. They could see nothing, what to shoot? Before they could ask questions, a scream came from the front, and someone was dismissed.

Everyone was shocked, and their eyes looked at Liang Xiao were filled with awe. Can they shoot in this way?

Liang Xiao didn't explain. Although his current ear power was still far from what Huan Yuan said, he could still hear the sound of the Huns war horses spitting out a hundred steps away. It was still difficult to shoot him into the vital points, but it was basically no problem to shoot the body or the war horse.

"Accelerate!" Liang Xiao ordered the charge to start accelerating while bending his bow and shooting arrows.

In a moment, he shot several arrows in succession, and almost hit the arrow. When the bowstring sounded, a Hun scout would be shot.

Inspired by his miraculous archery, everyone's confidence increased and they kicked the horse faster. The war horse spread its four hooves, ran faster and faster, and ran towards the Hun camp in the distance.

Their speed was not particularly fast, but their momentum was getting stronger and stronger. Everyone entered the state of war and widened their eyes. The Greek teenagers put down the stirrup hidden in the saddle and stepped in half of their feet. With the support of the stirrup, they loosened the reins, held spears in their hands, and their bodies were slightly resting, and prepared for the assault.

This is Liang Xiao’s secret weapon.

After learning from Azhana about the heavy armored cavalry of Bactrica, Liang Xiao made an in-depth comparison of the advantages and disadvantages of the two types of cavalry. Considering the comprehensive cost-effectiveness, the heavy armored cavalry is indeed inferior to the light cavalry. However, in specific circumstances, the assault ability of the heavy armored cavalry is incomparable to the light cavalry. The impact of the heavy armored cavalry of Bactrica is limited because they do not have stirrups and high bridge saddles, and these two things are not new to him at all.

Although the emperor hid these two techniques for strategic reasons and did not allow him to be easily leaked, he was now facing a fierce battle and did not care about so much. In fact, after learning about the pros and cons of the Bactrician cavalry, he prepared stirrups for his knights and practiced secretly.

Today is just the first actual combat.

At this moment, the Greek teenagers were wearing heavy armor, holding spears and stirrups, and were full of fighting spirit. They followed Xie Guanglong and Pang Shuo closely, protecting Liang Xiao and others in the middle, like a sharp dagger, quietly stabbing the Huns' back.

Liang Xiao and others continued to shoot arrows and shoot the Hun scouts within the range below the horse. At this time, he did not force the shooting, as long as it could block their pace and delay their sending the news back to the Hun camp, it would be a goal.

The Xiongnu scouts were not mentally prepared for their arrival and suffered heavy losses. It was not until Liang Xiao and others rushed to five miles from the camp that the scouts escaped from Liang Xiao and others' snipers, rushed to the camp and called the police.

The camp was in sight, and Liang Xiao and others also completed the warm-up and began to enter a semi-charge state, accelerating to approach the Huns' camp.

The Huns' camp was silent. The marching of more than a month has made the Huns exhausted. Finally, they arrived at Suye City and had a great battle tomorrow. Everyone wanted to seize the time to rest. Even the on-duty whistle sat on the horse's back and half asleep. When the scouts in the distance rushed over, passed by them, and called the police sternly, they raised their heads in a daze and looked at the dark night in the distance.

They did not hear the familiar sound of horse hooves, nor did they see the torches like stars. Everything in front of them was completely different from the enemy attacks mentioned by the scout who called the police. Just as they were wondering if the scout was having a nightmare, a black shadow rushed to them with a muffled sound.

Looking at the shadows, the wandering whistles were stunned. When they instinctively tried to escape, the sharp arrows rushed over and pierced their bodies.

In front of them, Liang Xiao and others rushed into the camp of the Huns like a team of ghosts and appeared in front of the Huns.

Xie Guanglong roared, shook the iron spear, and killed a Hun who rushed out of the tent to check the situation. Then he raised the embers of the bonfire and threw it on the Huns' tent. The weather was cold and dry, and the tent quickly burned. The Huns in the tent woke up from their sleep and screamed in horror.

Alexander and others followed suit and kept picking over the Huns' tent with their spears and trampling them all the way. Some Huns were in a panic and rushed to their horses. They were immediately assassinated by their sharp spears and knocked down by the running war horses.

Under the protection of the heavy armored knight, Liang Xiao and others pulled their bows and shot with all their energy.

According to Liang Xiao's instructions, the mercenary archers did not shoot whenever they saw people, but chose valuable targets as much as possible: either the ten-member commander, the centurion and other low-level officers who were trying hard to control the situation, or the ordinary soldiers who wanted to intercept them with weapons, or the messengers who raised their horns and were ready to blew the alarm number, which were all the targets they were given priority.

These seven people are archers who hit the target with four arrows with 12 arrows a hundred steps away. Although there is a big gap compared to Liang Xiao, they are also rare experts. The bow in their hands is strong enough and the hit rate is considerable. Even on the Mercedes-Benz war horse, it is difficult for targets within fifty or sixty steps to escape their shooting. Under their cover, Xie Guanglong and others basically had no effective blocking and rushed forward all the way.

For a moment, the strong bow was like a piano, playing an passionate battle song. Amid the dense sound of strings, one after another, the Huns fell to the ground by arrows.

The Huns camp was in chaos and fire was rising.

"Steer, turn!" Liang Xiao shouted in a low voice as he shot.

Xie Guanglong, Pang Shuo turned his horse's head and rushed towards the right camp of the Huns. Everyone followed closely behind. More than two hundred war horses were like a sharp scimitar, drawing an arc, tearing the Huns' camp open a bloody wound, leaving behind a bloody and wailing-
