The officers of the Kushan Empire thought that this time, they could still intimidate each other by saying a few words of intimidation as before.

Unexpectedly, Ma Chao didn't say a word, and rushed over while scolding their ancestors.

In the army of the Kushan Empire, the origin of ordinary soldiers is very complicated, and all the ethnic groups they conquer have to serve in the military, while the vast majority of the officers come from the nobles of the Kushan Empire or the military families of the Yue clan.

So they were insulted by Ma Chao to their ancestors, but they were very ashamed, they were very angry, naturally they would not restrain their subordinates, and gave the order to attack without hesitation.

A hundred archers, holding their bows and shooting arrows. Of course, the Kushan Empire's army also had hard crossbows, but they were not distributed to these border guards.

To put it bluntly, these border guards are cannon fodder, the most rubbish troops in the military system of the Kushan Empire.

The Kushan Empire infantry in front of Ma Chao was from the Sogdian province, so he was wearing a traditional pointed bronze helmet and half-body iron armor, but he was barefoot on his feet, and he didn't know if he was too poor to wear shoes.

The cavalry of the Central Army only had to resist a wave of sparse and weak bow and arrow attacks, and they were already within the range of their repeaters.

Eight hundred pairs of crossbows, thousands of crossbow arrows came overwhelmingly, where had the soldiers of Guishan seen such a scene?

Their archers were basically streaking, except for the thin sleeveless iron armor on the upper body.

Just now, in order to warn the Han army, he took a step forward and stood at the forefront of the whole army.

They had just finished shooting a round of bows and arrows, and were bending their bows and arrows, preparing for the second salvo, but before they could raise their heads, they were covered by these thousands of crossbow arrows.

There was no suspense in the end, and a hundred archers fell under the crossbow arrows, and the sharp crossbow arrows pierced through their iron armor and nailed into their bodies.

Only about a hundred years ago, the Kushan people had the courage to ask the Eastern Han court to marry the princess of the Han Dynasty, but they were directly rejected by Banchao, the protector of the Western Regions.

After becoming angry, he sent an army of 70,000 to attack the Western Regions under the control of the Han Dynasty, but was easily defeated by the Han army of about 10,000 troops commanded by Ban Chao and the Western Regions coalition army.

In the past 100 years, although it has prospered several times, it has never dared to go east.

And because the Kushan royal family deliberately concealed this period of history, the Kushan soldiers a hundred years later did not know anything about the Han army.

The ignorant are fearless, so they dare to block the most elite 800 cavalry of the Han Dynasty with 500 miscellaneous infantry.

Ma Chao took the lead and rushed into the enemy formation, and before that, he had already shot several Kushan officers to death without missing arrows.

Ma Chao shouted while rushing, "Listen up, don't use grenades, save some, it's a waste to use them, capture Han Sui alive!" ”

Therefore, after the eight hundred cavalrymen shot the crossbows in their hands, they replaced them with halberds and horizontal knives, and went into battle in hand-to-hand combat.

Even in hand-to-hand combat, cavalry abuse of infantry was an easy and pleasant thing, and soon 500 Kushan infantry were slaughtered.

When Han Sui saw Ma Chao charge, he had already turned around and fled.

He clearly knew that the five hundred Kushan border guards could not stop Ma Chao's cavalry at all, and he still had to go to Marakanda City to take refuge.

Ma Chao has been staring at him! One by one, he picked up several Kushan infantry in front of him, and Ma Chao had already broken through the enemy formation and chased directly after Han Sui.

Han Sui ordered his men to stop Ma Chao, while he accelerated his escape.

It's a pity that his twenty subordinates can't stop Ma Chao for long.

Ma Chao cut down the last horse thief who stopped in front of him, and continued to chase Han Sui, who only had a vague back, leaving only one person left.

Han Sui is old, his BMW is also old, and he runs more, and his speed gradually decreases.

Ma Chao's dragon sparrow is in the prime of life, just as strong as Ma Chao, and will only chase closer and closer.

But after all, Maracanda City was not far from the border, so Han Sui ran for a while and was already able to see the tall walls of Maracanda.

The defenders of Marakanda also spotted the beacon alarm lit at the border post, and a large group of cavalry was leaving the city to support the outpost, and the cavalry was the main force of the Kushan Empire's army.

Han Sui saw the Guishan cavalry out of the city from a distance, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, and subconsciously relaxed his control over the BMW slightly, and the BMW, which was already tired, naturally slowed down.

Ma Chao has been accelerating, advancing and retreating, and he has greatly shortened the distance between him and Han Sui.

He also saw a large contingent of horsemen rushing out of the city of Maracanda, two or three thousand men, coming straight in this direction.

However, he saw Han Sui's laxity even more, and he raised the Divine Arm Bow, which was a five-stone strong bow tailored for him by the old man.

He bent his bow and arrows, and although Han Sui heard the sound of the bowstring behind him, he also subconsciously lowered his body.

It's a pity, after all, he is old, his reaction is slower, his movements are slower, and the degree of leaning over is also worse.

He only dodged one arrow, and the other two arrows hit his thigh and buttocks, respectively, and the pain caused Han Sui to fall off his horse.

Ma Chao rushed up, and at the same time, the Kushan cavalry also rushed closer, and they shot arrows at Ma Chao one after another, trying to prevent him from approaching Han Sui.

Ma Chao used his spear to shoot arrows while catching up with Han Sui, who was crawling tenaciously on the ground.

"Old dog, use your head today to pay tribute to my father's spirit in the sky!"

After that, a shot pierced Han Sui's heart, Han Sui looked at the Guishan cavalry not far away, and shouted loudly, "I'm Han Sui, save me!" ”

Before he could finish speaking, Ma Chao's spear had pierced through his back and stabbed out of his chest.

Ma Chao picked him up and looked at Han Sui, who was dying, "Old dog, you also have today!" ”

Cut off Han Sui's head with a knife, put the head in the pocket next to the saddle, and then turned around and fled, in just this moment, he had already been hit by three arrows, fortunately, the armor of the Central Army had a good protective effect, but it was only a flesh wound.

The spear fell, and Han Sui's headless body fell into a pool of blood, ending his legendary life.

In the end, Ma Chao successfully escaped from the hands of thousands of pursuers under the help of Ma Dai.

He led 800 of his subordinates to retreat to Dawan smoothly, with only a few dozen casualties, but he killed 500 Kushan infantry and hundreds of horse thieves, and captured thousands of horse thieves.

However, Ma Chao's cross-border military action greatly stimulated the top of the Kushan Empire.

Not only because Ma Chao completely annihilated the border guards of the Guishan Empire with 500 people, but also because he killed Han Sui.

And it was under the city of Maracanda, a naked provocation to the Kushan Empire.

Han Sui also has a special identity, his daughter is the concubine of the prince of the Kushan Empire.

Therefore, the biggest behind-the-scenes boss of Han Sui's gang is the prince of the Kushan Empire, Han Sui helped him collect his wealth and help him secretly get rid of dissidents.

For Bo Tuo, Han Sui is a very important helper, not to mention that he dotes on Han Sui's daughter very much.
