Chapter 50: Five Arrows in Succession

Liu Ziqiu's troops rushed all the way down from Jinshan in three ways, Wen Hao led the middle army and horses to attack Ashina's camp of Lifa, Liu Ziqiu, Jiaoliyan each led an army to outflank from the left and right, and it was he who had been emphasizing the tactics of separate and combined attacks, and the most important part of the tactics of separate and combined attacks was in the middle of the road, this military horse must be able to contain the opponent's counterattack, and even tear apart the opponent's defense line, in order to find fighters for the mobile forces on both wings, although Liu Ziqiu is the commander of the three armies, he knows very well how many catties and taels he has, so he handed over the most important task to Wen Hao, not that he is greedy for life and afraid of death

There is a full twenty miles from Jinshan to Dishen Mountain, this distance is only a matter of time for the galloping horses, but the galloping momentum is amazing, the whole earth trembles, the grassland is windy, not suitable for building a high watchtower, but Ashina has grown up on horseback since childhood, and when the earth began to tremble, the horn of "woo" echoed over the camp, and the more than 2,000 warriors who stayed in the camp were assembled and screamed to meet them

Opposite them was a black oppressive cavalry team, which seemed to be 30,000 people, in fact, Liu Ziqiu only handed over 5,000 cavalry to Wen Hao, but he also transferred 25,000 unridden war horses, the warriors of the nomadic tribe had superb riding skills, and hiding in stirrups was the most basic skill, which could effectively dodge the arrows shot by the other party, and the tribesmen of Lifa could not tell whether those war horses had riders or not

The nomadic cavalry is best at riding and shooting tactics, but the other side is coming at their camp, their wives and children do not care in the camp, but the family of Tong Lifa is the most important, if the enemy breaks through the camp, the family of Tong Lifa is killed or taken prisoner, even if they escape, they can only apologize for their crimes, so knowing that the other side is ten times their own, the warriors who stayed in the camp still rushed forward, wielding a scimitar in their hands, and did not even take off their bows and arrows

The two armies collided fiercely, and the sound of killing was everywhere, if it was about cavalry and archery, the two sides were evenly matched, but when it came to hand-to-hand combat, Wen Hao's subordinates were obviously more than a step higher, both in terms of equipment and training, and Wen Hao They rushed all the way from Jinshan, and the impact of the entire team had reached its peak, and the two thousand guards in the camp were in a hurry, and the army could not form the necessary speed at all, the two armies collided, and the camp guards were soon drowned in the torrent of Wen Hao's army, and people kept falling off their horses, and they were trampled into meat in a blink of an eye, Wen Hao brandished his saber and rushed all the way into the camp of the Lifa tribe

The camp of the Turks is different from the camp of the Hexi army, and there are no fences, deer barricades and other obstacles around, because as a nomadic tribe, their biggest advantage is that the cavalry does not have a fence, which is more convenient for them to attack and retreat, of course, it will be more convenient for horses and sheep grazing

When the horn of warning sounded over the camp, the old and weak women and children in the camp also walked out of the tents, and when they saw a large group of people pressed by the darkness south of the camp, they knew that the camp could not hold it, and Ashdemudori immediately made the decision to retreat

Carrying a soft bow, she took more than twenty guards, as well as a large group of wives and concubines and young children of Tong Lifa, and withdrew to the north of the camp first, and as for the cattle and sheep and goods in the camp can now be discarded, and the ordinary herdsmen may not survive the winter, but she is the wife of Tong Lifa and the daughter of Ashd Mullin, and there will be someone to help them along the way, and they will not starve

As soon as they got out of the camp, they saw that they were killed again, and a group of cavalry blocked their way, it turned out that Liu Ziqiu attacked from the left side, and found no signs of the enemy ambush along the way, but he did not dare to take it lightly, and ordered Ji Rentai to lead the army to continue to outflank him from the left side, and he himself led two thousand elite cavalry to kill the rear of the camp with all his might, Liu Ziqiu's original intention was not to block Mu Duoli's retreat, but to find out if there were ambushes in the rear of the camp of Tong Lifa, if there were ambushes, with his martial arts and the best war horses to sit down, he could successfully get rid of the formation of the attack and reorganize, but unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the north of the camp, he saw many old and weak women and children pouring out of the camp

Seeing this group of old and weak women and children, Liu Ziqiu was relieved, there must be no ambush outside the camp, otherwise these people would not have the reason to abandon the camp and run away, and have lived with the nomadic tribe for so long, Liu Ziqiu already knows that the importance of cattle and sheep to the herdsmen is equivalent to the food of the Han people, and it is more important than the food of the Han people, because these cattle and sheep also have "seeds" Function: They abandon the camp and run away, they will definitely not be able to take these cattle and sheep with them, without cattle and sheep, there will be no food, and there will be no calves and lambs, and the next year they will face the situation of having no sheep to go, and it will affect the livelihood of the next year, so as long as there is a glimmer of hope to hold the camp, they will not escape

Knowing the reality of the Lifa camp, Liu Ziqiu put his mind at ease, raised his hand to restrain the team in the gallop, these cavalry under his command were well-trained, and they really did the order and prohibition, and they stopped almost instantly, and the movements were so neat that they were suffocating, if there was a Turkic warrior on the opposite side, Liu Ziqiu would not hesitate to order the team to rush over, but he really saw that these people were all old and weak women and children in the tribe, but he couldn't do it, you must know that under the huge impact of the cavalry, these people rarely had a chance of survival, Liu Ziqiu didn't want to let himself become an executioner with blood on his hands and women

A person may be able to easily restrain the galloping war horse, but the other party has a full two thousand people, but at the same time can restrain the war horse, and still maintain a complete formation, the team's riding skills and execution can be seen, Mu Duoli can't help but know that when he encounters a strong opponent, the living environment on the grassland is harsh, most people don't have a long lifespan, maybe a serious illness, an accident will not know anything, so the people on the grassland often look at life and death more lightly

Mu Duoli is not afraid of death, on the contrary, death may be a relief for her, it is better than becoming someone else's slave, but she has a pair of young children who are being held on horseback by the guards at the moment, if she dies, these children will be left uncared for, fate can be imagined, for the sake of her children, she must also live well, Mu Duoli saw the person riding on the tall horse in the other team, it seems to be a core person

Shoot people first, shoot horses, capture thieves first, capture kings, as the daughter of the leader of the largest tribe of the Ashed tribe, Mu Duoli understands this truth very well, she clenched her silver teeth, and the soft bow in her hand was raised, and three arrows shot straight at the man, Mu Duoli didn't know that the person she was looking at was Liu Ziqiu, the supreme commander of the Hexi Army

Liu Ziqiu was turning his head to speak to Da Dun on the side, he didn't understand Turkic language, to persuade these old and weak women and children on the other side, he could only use Da Dun, the setter, and suddenly heard the sound of "whoosh" breaking through the air, and the three feather arrows had arrived in front of him, and in a hurry, Liu Ziqiu roared, an iron plate bridge lay flat on horseback, and there was a burst of exclamations around him, and when he looked again, Liu Ziqiu had sat up straight again, holding a feather arrow in his left and right hands, and holding a Mu Duoli in his mouth, and the three arrows that Mu Duoli was bound to get, but he had dodged this flexible skill, which was really unheard of

"Protect the lord", only to hear Da stunned shout, the soldiers of the Hexi Army who reacted quickly formed a human wall in front of Liu Ziqiu

"Come and don't be rude," Liu Ziqiu held the three feather arrows in his right hand together, and swung them hard, and the three arrows were thrown out like lightning, only to hear a few screams from the opposite array, the three Turkic guards turned over and fell off their horses, and a feather arrow was stuck in their throats, and blood was gurgling out, seeing that they couldn't live

Liu Ziqiu didn't see Mu Duoli's shot, he only thought that the three arrows just now were done by a few guards around Mu Duoli, so these three arrows were thrown, but they took the lives of the three guards, seeing the old and weak women and children in the opposite formation, there was a faint fear on their faces, Liu Ziqiu waved his hand proudly and said, "Da stunned, let them surrender"

Da was stunned and had already seen Liu Ziqiu's divine might, and he was not surprised, and said loudly: "You listen, my lord is merciful, as long as you dismount and surrender to ensure that you don't die, if you are willing to sincerely submit to my Great Sui Dynasty, my lord can also allocate pasture to you......"

Before he could finish his words, Mu Duoli on the other side had already said loudly: "The Great Sui and my Turks are friendly countries, why do you invade my borders and kill my people for no reason?"

After listening to the stunned translator Liu Ziqiu sneered: "You Turks first invaded my border and killed my border people, Liu Mou is to tell you that the crimes you have committed will be punished tenfold."

In fact, many Turkic nobles have learned Chinese, Mu Duoli is no exception, although Liu Ziqiu's words are said to Da Du, wanting to translate Da Du into Turkic, Mu Duoli heard it clearly, knowing that this matter is difficult to be good, and secretly took out five feather arrows from the quiver and buckled them in the palm of his hand

Over there, Da Shu was muttering and translating Liu Ziqiu's words, and everyone's eyes were focused on Da Shu

The soft bow in Mu Duo's hand suddenly raised, and five arrows shot straight at Liu Ziqiu, four of which were shot at Liu Ziqiu, and one arrow was fired at Liu Ziqiu's up and down, left and right, but it was directed at Liu Ziqiu's sitting down war horse, and five arrows were fired in succession, this hand archery technique can be described as amazing, even Zhang Liang, who is good at bows and arrows, can't do it

Although Liu Ziqiu didn't know Mu Duoli's identity, he knew that this woman was the leader of this group of old and weak women and children, when Da was stunned to speak, he kept staring at Mu Duoli, not to guard against Mu Duoli, but to find out her thoughts from Mu Duoli's eyes, but he didn't expect that she would fire five arrows in a row with one hand.
