The Shatu were too careless, or more like they didn’t expect that the Great Han E Plains after so many decades and they would so coincidentally buht of the Great Han Ee in the desert

Plains the territories of the Shatu Seven Tribes? Doesn’t the Great Han Empire have the ‘Writ of Grace’? Since when did their cavalry dare to ride beyond White Stone Pass and strike out against us?

At this very moment, many Shatu people were stunned They couldn’t react in time and were even at a loss

The appearance of Yan Liqiang’s troops had caught the Shatu unprepared After a moment of confusion, yells were heard fro the Wind Border Stockade Only four hundred e while the re soldiers ied toward Yan Liqiang’s party, ready to clash

It seemed like the Shatu knew that the vitality of a cavalry lied in mobility and force, so they wouldn’t just stand there idly and wait for Yan Liqiang and the rest to come at them

Whoosh…!

Whoosh…!

through the air could be heard constantly Without even turning his head, Yan Liqiang knew that it was Tie Yunshan shooting just by listening to the sound alone Tie Yunshan had attained the fourth heavenly real a ten-picul bow He was the one who released the first arrow and knocked a Shatu man as a thousand meters away off his steed This opened the prelude of the battle between both parties As the parties were rapidly closing in on each other, Tie Yunshan’s hands never stopped After every vibration of the bowstring, so the Shatu cavalry would fall off his steed

As expected of a veteran He definitely had excellent archery skill that was a heavy deterrent on the battlefield

There were about 1,800 people on Yan Liqiang’s side and similarly, there were also about 1,900 men on the Shatu side From the numbers alone, both sides were evenly matched No one could have predicted the battle today, not even Yan Liqiang himself This place would soon be where the Great Han Eainst the Shatu Seven Tribes’ cavalry for the very first tih Tie Yunshan wasn’t able to fire four arrows in one shot like Yan Liqiang, he was shooting out arrows steadily Every arrow he released hit its target In just the blink of an eye, he had shot six arrows Six Shatuside and ended up being buried underneath the stampede of iron hooves

From the moment they first spotted the Shatu people, the five hundred ’s party strictly followed the cavalry’s code of war and slowly broke away fro toward the Shatu cavalry, they didn’t collide head-on with thele After a e direction, they would charge at their sides If the Shatu cavalry changed direction, then so would they They would keep their distance from their enemies, but they wouldn’t stay too far away either

The three iron rules for a cavalry archer were ‘distance, distance and distance’!

This had been deeply imprinted in their mind ever since the first day they rode on horseback at the archery acade had set for the cavalry archers
