Chapter 153: The Iron Rider of the Royal Court

Li Xiang immediately asked people to ambush on both sides of the hillside, these cavalry should have come out of the depths of Tuyuhun in the starry night, and they seemed to have a goal, and the speed of the march at night was not slow.

Others may not know whose army this army is, but the eldest princess knows very well, because this army is the army of the Tuyuhun royal court tribe.

The eldest princess had lost contact with the royal court, and it had been two days, so Tuyuhun Khan sent his own elite cavalry to the north along the route of the eldest princess's hunt.

Two days ago, this army got the last news about the eldest princess, so they didn't care about resting, and rushed to the tribe where the eldest princess was located day and night, in order to catch up with the Tang army and pick up the eldest princess as soon as possible.

Li Xiang looked in the dark, the length was about 1,500 meters, according to the calculation of three cavalry in each column, this cavalry was more than 2,000 people, and it should be the most elite cavalry.

Tears were already flowing from the eyes of the eldest princess, these people were all the most elite warriors of Tuyuhun, but unfortunately compared to Li Xiang's army, it was too far behind, first of all, they couldn't see the situation thirty-five miles away, but Li Xiang's people could know the situation of everyone around them.

The second is the gap in weapons between the two sides, Li Xiang has already sent the chain crossbow to everyone's hands, so when it comes to attacking, Li Xiang only needs to give an order, and his thousands of people can attack these people with a chain crossbow, a person can fire ten hidden arrows in a short time, and all objects within fifty meters can penetrate, these people have no way to live.

Now Li Xiang is a pity that these war horses, he also has a lot of war horses to replace, if these war horses can be intercepted intact, it is also a big expense for himself, but unfortunately there is no such effort now, as these people get closer and closer, Li Xiang is already ready, just wait for him to be the first to attack, the rest of the people will rush up to deal with these Tuyuhun most elite cavalry.

"Kill me."

Seeing that all the people had entered his ambush circle, Li Xiang gave an order and fired the chain crossbow in his hand first.

Ten meters in front of Li Xiang, a cavalryman looked around in shock, but unfortunately he didn't even say a word, he was directly penetrated by Li Xiang's chain crossbow, and these soldiers around him also found that they were ambushed, but they didn't have any reaction time, there were too many people around, and the most important thing was that there were too many arrows shot over.

Li Xiang is a person from modern society, naturally understands what is called saturation attack, and now Li Xiang has arranged 4,000 people under his command here, each with a chain crossbow, and ten arrows can be shot out in about 20 seconds, which means that there are more than 40,000 arrows to shoot out, and there are less than 2,000 people in the middle, so you can imagine what these people will be beaten into.

Vomit...

There was a soldier who couldn't help it, although this was not the first time he went to the battlefield, but the situation in front of him still felt that he wanted to vomit out the food he ate, and a soldier in front of him who was Tuguhun was hit by nine sleeve arrows all over his body, and there were two on his face, it is estimated that his father may not be able to recognize it, it is really terrible.

"Look for the war horses that can be used, and those who are not dead will go up and make up for me, see if there are any valuable things on my body, take everything that can be taken, and let them stay here if they can't take it, we don't have enough lamp oil now, we can't waste it on them, in short, we can't leave a living mouth, and our whereabouts can't be exposed."

Li Xiang pulled out the arrow from the dead man's body, and gave the order at the same time, the chain crossbow is indeed a good thing, but it consumes too many arrows.

Although one point can be exchanged for a hundred, Li Xiang still doesn't want to develop the habit of wasting his subordinates, not to mention that the quality of the arrows given by the system is good, there is no problem with using it three or four times, there is no need to waste it all here, if it is really useless, Li Xiang will never let his subordinates use it forcibly, but if it can save a little, there is no need to let the troops develop a habit of waste.

"Ahh

The screams kept coming, just now some people were shot in the thighs, and then they fell to the ground, relying on the body of the war horse to dodge, but now it was found during the inspection, we have no mercy, the battlefield is so cruel, either you die or I die, if you spare your life today, if I fall into your hands tomorrow, can you guarantee to spare my life?

The cloth on the eldest princess's mouth has been pulled out, if it is blocked for a long time, it is estimated that it will not be easy to breathe, but at this moment the eldest princess wants to shout, but unfortunately she can't make any sound in her mouth, and the scene just now left too deep a shock to the eldest princess.

These armies are the most elite army in Tuyuhun, and they are the royal iron cavalry beside her father, if there is a rebellion in Tuyuhun in the past, this army around her father can be ten and can immediately wipe out other tribes, so this army has many legends in the grassland, but I didn't expect that it was such a powerful army in Li Xiang's hands that did not hold out for half an hour.

The two thousand-person teams totaled 2,000 people, and in this half-burnt incense, all of them were killed by Li Xiang's men, but Li Xiang did not leave much time for the eldest princess to be sad, but immediately pulled the eldest princess to the four-wheeled carriage, and then took the rest of the people away, leaving two thousand slowly cooling corpses in the same place.

If the eldest princess can be freed, there is only one idea now, that is, to return to her father's side as quickly as possible, and then persuade her father to quickly conclude a peace agreement with Datang, because this army is really terrible, although the number is only more than 6,000 people, but it is by no means Tuyuhun can resist, even Wang Tingtie riding in front of them is such a result, not to mention other armies.

Seven days later.

On a sunny morning, Li Xiang woke up from his sleep, and had traveled more than 100 miles last night, which could be regarded as throwing off the pursuing cavalry.

Now the whole body is like a scattered shelf, but thinking of today's goal, Li Xiang immediately felt full of energy, today's Li Xiang's target is the Ronggong tribe, the third largest tribe in Tuyuhun......
