grassland
Somewhere in the steppe.
"This grassland is so beautiful," said a young soldier.
"If it weren't for Rouran, I would really want to stay away from the hustle and bustle of the city, grazing horses and sheep in this blue sky and white sky grassland. Lin Mubai, who was sitting cross-legged on the grass, looked at the sky and said.
After walking for a few hours, everyone and the war horses also needed to rest, so they chose a flat place, and Lin Mubai and the others gathered around here to eat dry food and chat.
"Haha. When I meet the Rouran tribe, I really want to see what the Rouran woman looks like, so that the son can see it even if he takes risks."
"Haha, then I will catch a few Rouran women for you as daughters-in-law"
"Haha, one for each person" Lin Mubai laughed.
"Childe, the grassland is so big, where do you say the Rouran people will be?" the young soldier asked.
"The Rouran people belong to a nomadic people and have no fixed residence, what's the matter? Can't wait to please Rouran's daughter-in-law?" Lin Mubai looked at Zhang Xilai, who was about the same age as him, and quipped.
Zhang Xilai blushed, smiled and didn't speak.
Suddenly. Lin Mubai's face changed, and he lay down, his ears on the grass.
"Prepare for battle, a small local group of cavalry, about fifty people" In just a moment, Lin Mubai stood up and ordered with a serious face.
"Yes"
"Dong Dong" About a pillar of incense later, a small group of cavalry of about fifty people rushed towards Lin Mubai and the others.
"Who?" shouted the bearded, sheepskin armor-clad leader.
"We are cavalry under the command of Lord Hohe Quercus, and we are ordered to patrol, who are you?" Lin Mubai responded.
"We are the cavalry under the command of Lord Zuo Kangtan," the cavalry team rode towards Lin Mubai and the others.
The leader did not doubt what Lin Mubai said at all, because Huhe Quemu was the first warrior of Rouran, and outsiders almost didn't know his name, and the cavalry under his command was even more brave and good at fighting. What's more, Lin Mubai and the others are simply easy to look at, except for a strong-looking soldier who has not changed, Lin Mubai and the others are all wearing beards or covering their faces with black cloths. And the languages of the continents are all the same.
The cavalry leader couldn't see what Lin Mubai was pretending to be at all.
"Fifty paces away, throw two rounds from the front and above, and then get on the horse and kill me, leaving no room alive"
"Yes" Lin Mubai and the others quickly took off the longbow on their backs, threw two rounds forward and upward, and then got on their horses and rushed towards the cavalry team at great speed.
The leader scolded when he saw Lin Mubai and the others shooting arrows, and just wanted to stop the arrows that had already been shot, but he didn't have time to order, so he hurriedly pulled out his war knife to block the arrows that were shooting at him.
The cavalry running in front saw the arrows and drew their swords to resist them.
Before the cavalry who did not see it in the middle had time to react, they were hit by two waves of arrows and seven or eight people, fell off their horses, and the cavalry in the rear did not have time to stop their horses, and stepped on the fallen soldiers one after another.
Suddenly, a few soldiers who did not die were trampled to death by the galloping horses.
"Kill this bunch...... Uh" The leader's eyes widened, and before he finished speaking, Lin Mubai, who was riding a horse, shot him in the throat with a short crossbow and fell off the horse.
Behind them, people fell from their horses one after another.
Lin Mubai and the other twenty-one people put away their short crossbows, drew their swords, and killed the cavalry.
With just two waves of projectiles and one wave of crossbow fire, less than forty percent of the cavalry fell off their horses and died.
The two waves finally met in close quarters.
Lin Mubai killed one person every time he swung his sword, after all, it was not a regular army, and the cavalry fell off their horses one after another in just a moment. Lin Mubai and others did not have any casualties.
"Clean up the battlefield, drive the horses away, search for usable things on the Rouran, then dig pits and bury the corpses"
"Yes" Everyone dismounted one after another, searching for the items on Rouran's person.
"Childe, except for a few pots of this thing, there are no other items" Zhang Xilai took a few pots and handed them to Lin Mubai, Lin Mubai picked up one of them, opened the lid, and sniffed it.
"Give these jugs of goat's milk to the brothers. ”
"Childe, is this goat's milk? Can you drink this thing?" Zhang Xilai asked sullenly.
"This is a good thing, quenching thirst, fighting hunger, and supplementing nutrition, much better than eating dry food"
"Okay," Zhang Xilai smiled and gave the goat's milk to the brothers.
