There were only about 200 Tang troops stationed in Wuhai, they were the second-line troops of Tingzhou, and Ma Lan was the envoy of the Beiting Festival and the protector of the Beiting Prefecture, and they were also Ma Lan's subordinates.

The scouts had already brought the news that the commander was coming from the west to Wuhai to guard the capture, and when they saw the Tang Dynasty banner appear, the Tang soldiers rushed down the hillside with cheers and shouted loudly towards the army.

Seeing his family, Ma Lan was extremely happy. The Wuhai Guard is a lieutenant in his forties, with a conspicuous scar on his face, which looks like he has been on the battlefield many times. When Ma Lan asked, he knew that the nearby Western Turkic tribes were in rebellion a few years ago, and they wanted to attack Wuhai to guard and loot things for the winter, and this scar was left there.

In the past two years, the Tang Dynasty has been extremely prosperous, and the nearby Western Turkic tribes have converged a lot, and since then, they have been far away from guarding and capture, speaking of which, this captain is still extremely happy.

"Which tribe was captured in that attack on Wuhai? How were we hurt that time? Where is that tribe now? ”

After hearing the lieutenant say that more than a dozen brothers had died, Ma Lu's face sank. Hearing that the small tribe was wintering in a valley dozens of miles away, Ma Lan nodded.

"Li Hui!"

"General!" Li Hui answered loudly with his chest and belly bulging on the horse.

"Take your people, let Lao Luo lead the way, and go and slaughter this tribe to a certain family!" Ma Lan gritted his teeth and said fiercely.

"Yes, General!" Li Hui replied loudly.

Luo Jin, the envoy of Wuhai, saw a group of men and horses who followed Li Hui out of the brigade, hesitated for a moment and said: "General, that tribe can have one or two thousand men, and they can all fight on horseback, I'm afraid this little force is not enough......"

"Enough!" Ma Lan smiled faintly and said, "Lao Luo, you go ahead and lead the way, let's wait here for two hours." Li Hui, folded a brother, take you and ask! ”

"Don't worry, General!" Li Hui said loudly, "Anyone who is missing arms and legs." I wiped my neck myself! ”

"Go ahead!" Ma Lan smiled and nodded.

"Let's go, Brother Luo, can't you trust these brothers?" Li Hui looked at Luo Jin and smiled.

Luo Jin saw that Ma Luan looked determined, although he was suspicious in his heart. Or let his subordinates lead a horse over, ready to lead the way in front of the head.

"Captain, let's go take a look!" A team guarding Wuhai was saying loudly, followed by several low-ranking officers, all of whom were extremely curious.

Luo Jin looked at Ma Lu. Ma Lan smiled and said, "Go ahead, take a look." Look at how I, the three thousand sons, exterminated this small tribe. ”

Several people were all happy, and hurriedly pulled out the war horses from the small city guarded.

There were also many other people who wanted to go, and Ma Ling all smiled and agreed. As a result, when Li Hui set off in the end, he was followed by twenty or thirty Wuhai guards. This is also because Wuhai does not have enough horses, otherwise there are more people who have to go to see it.

"Brother, can you really lose one of your three hundred people?" Luo Jin walked side by side with Li Hui in front of the brigade, looking at Li Hui and wondering.

"Brother Luo, just take a look!" Li Hui said with a smile. "This is the general's military order, and if something goes wrong, you will lose your head! When the fight starts later, you and your brothers stand far away and watch, so as not to hurt you! ”

As soon as the words came out, the Wuhai guards who were following Luo Jin immediately changed their faces.

"What are these words?" Luo Jin said with a sinking face, "Brother, I have also been in dozens of battles before and after, and I have never frowned, and the same is true of these men under me!" Brother, don't you look down on us? ”

"Where, where." Li Hui hurriedly said, "How dare the junior brother despise the eldest brothers." In fact, in the general's order, you brothers are also included. If I make a mistake and my brothers lose one and a half, I'll lose my head. Little brother, I'm a lieutenant now. But I don't even have a mother-in-law yet, and my brother doesn't want my little brother to be gone like this, right? ”

The veterans burst into laughter, and their calm faces relaxed.

Seeing that Li Hui was so relaxed, they were also curious about how to fight this battle, how to destroy that small tribe, but they didn't lose a single person?

The foothills of the Tien Shan Mountains are full of canyons. The light horse galloped all the way, and soon a wide valley appeared in front of everyone.

"It's the people here who go to harass Wuhai and arrest them." Luo Jin pointed to the depths of the valley and said, "They surrounded us for three days and two nights with more people, and they were almost about to attack us, and in the end, the snow was too big, so they left their bodies and ran away." In the past two years, the general's prestige has become more and more famous, but they have not gone to Wuhai to guard the trouble. ”

"If you don't make trouble now, you've killed the Tang people before, and it's too late for anything!" Li Hui said with a smile, "Our general is a cautious person, if he kills one of our brothers, he will be angry, and if he is angry, he will let those barbarians be buried with him." Let's go, the general is still waiting for us to go back to our lives! Brothers, follow behind and watch the brothers kill all these guys! ”

The front has already been said, and the veterans naturally didn't say anything, and followed Luo Jin to the back of the team one by one.

Li Hui gave an order, and the athletes carefully pulled out the Yuanrong crossbow from behind and held it in their hands one by one.

"Let's go!" Li Hui let out a low shout, and three hundred people formed a common sharp arrow formation, galloping towards the valley with Li Hui as the tip, and shouted loudly at the same time.

Deep in the valley, the herdsmen set up their tents on the banks of a snowy stream, where they are all comfortable for cats. There's not much to do in winter, and everything has to be done after winter. Anyway, with enough hay, the sheep and horses will not starve to death.

The sound of the horse's hooves came slowly from a distance, and it didn't seem to be fast, but it was very rhythmic, and the sound was extremely neat.

The men on the steppe were most alert to the sound of horses' hooves, and one by one they quickly ran out of their tents and looked towards the entrance of the valley. But I saw a group of ironclad cavalry slowly galloping from the mouth of the valley, which had already formed a neat charging formation, but it did not let the horses increase their speed, although the sound of the horses' hooves was neat, but their mouths were making all kinds of strange shouts, as if they were afraid that no one would know that they were coming.

"It's a Tang person!"

"The army of the Heavenly Khan!"

Most of the steppe men have been on the battlefield, and this kind of iron armor is only available in the army of the Heavenly Khan. Obviously, this small cavalry is the army of the Heavenly Khan.

I don't know why Tian Khan's army came here, so many people put up this formation, it won't be to attack this valley! If you really want to attack, isn't this a little bit of a minority?

The tribal leader shouted loudly, and although he didn't know what these Tang people were here for, the steppe men jumped on their mounts one by one with weapons and bows and arrows, and quickly assembled on the banks of the Snow Creek.

The Tang army from outside the valley looked at this side, but still did not accelerate. It's just a sharp arrow formation that slowly approaches.

The Tang army stayed for enough time, so more than a thousand cavalry were quickly gathered behind the tribal leader, and although the formation could not be discussed, they all looked extremely strong. Obviously, they have all been on the battlefield.

Seeing that the tribal warriors were finally standing together, Li Hui smiled, turned back to the back and shouted: "Brothers, see clearly, we kill people like this!" ”

After talking about the spurs, a little war horse. The war horse roared and accelerated out. The athletes behind were well-trained, and they all rushed out on horseback after Li Hui, still maintaining a strict formation.

Seeing that the Tang army began to accelerate, the face of the tribal leader changed.

The next moment, a hint of anger appeared in his eyes.

Three hundred men came against his tribe, and they were not sent to death?

The Tang people had already rushed over, naturally without any hesitation, the tribal leader gave an order, and more than a thousand grassland men roared in unison, and each beat his horse and rushed towards the Tang people.

Luo Jin stood in place with dozens of Wuhai guards. looked nervously at the cavalry on both sides.

Li Hui sat on the war horse, bowed down slightly and looked ahead, quickly judging the distance between the two sides. From time to time, the team leaders issued short orders, ordering the athletes under their command to adjust the direction of Yuan Rong's crossbow fingers.

Everything was carried out in strict accordance with the orders of the Anxi New Army, and there was no sloppiness in the slightest. The same salvo of the Yuanrong crossbow, different regiments can achieve different effects, and the rain of arrows is too concentrated in one direction, which often causes a huge waste. In addition to giving full play to the power of the Yuan Rong crossbow salvo as much as possible, Li Hui's group of men and horses did the best, which is also the reason why he attracted the attention of Ma Lan, the main general. The only lieutenant in Anxi's new army who can match him. That's Fonda. However, compared to him, Fonda is still weaker.

The war horses of the two sides approached quickly on the cold ground on the bank of the Snow Creek, and seeing that all the enemy's men and horses had entered the range of the Yuan Rong crossbow, Li Hui let out a low shout. Suddenly pulled the machine of Yuan Rong's crossbow.

The humming of the bowstring sounded, and a cold light flew directly towards the enemy army.

It was only a moment later than Li Hui, and the next moment the light sound of the machine moving was connected, and the Yuanrong crossbow in the hands of the three hundred knights was powerful at the same time, and the three thousand steel arrows tore through the air and flew obliquely into the sky. When they arrived, the heads of the prairie men fell like raindrops.

This rain of arrows is like a kiss of death, falling from the sky and easily tearing the simple leather armor of the prairie men and burrowing into the bodies of the prairie men. This time, the salvo was as perfect as ever, just like in the previous training, and the steel arrows were spread just right, including more than a dozen steppe men in a horizontal row.

The moment the rain of arrows fell, the miserable shouts sounded intensively, a large number of knights fell off their horses, and one by one the war horses fell to the ground with a wail.

The next moment, the grassland men on the banks of the snow stream became sparse. More than 1,000 people rushed over together, and 80% of them were damaged under the rain of arrows, and only about 200 people were still sitting on horses, and half of them were wounded. All of them were terrified and froze in place.

Luo Jin and a group of old soldiers were stunned when they saw this scene. They just heard that Ma Xiang had trained a new army, but they didn't expect the new army to be so terrifying.

After completing a deadly salvo, Li Hui led the athletes to continue to rush forward, and at the moment when he hung the Yuanrong crossbow back on his back and pulled out the Mo knife, Li Hui looked back at Luo Jin and his party and laughed: "Brothers, have you seen clearly? That's how we kill! After speaking, he held the Mo knife in both hands, turned around and rushed forward.

The old pawns only then reacted, and they exclaimed loudly one by one. Luo Jin twitched the corners of his mouth, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

No wonder Ma Xiang is so sure, it turns out that he can kill people so easily! If his subordinates also had this kind of weapon, what would the steppe barbarians in this small tribe have!

At this time, Li Hui had already rushed into the middle of the grassland knights with a group of knights, and he didn't even bother to throw a short spear, and he directly waved the Mo knife to kill him. The snow-bright Mo knife flew up and down, cutting down the still living grassland men to the ground. (To be continued.) )
