C47 (1/2)
Amidst the biting cold wind, Yang Lin brought over ten thousand cavalrymen and galloped their horses madly in the snow. The rumbling sound of the horses' hooves practically echoed throughout the entire snow plains. Although there was no sun, there was no snow. The hooves of more than ten thousand war horses were clearly imprinted in the snow.
Tang Qing spurred his horse to's side and whispered to him. As Dian Wei and Xu Zhu had fought to their hearts' content and did not retreat from the fresh inferior's tribe, Tuo Huaigen, who had rushed over, quickly caught up. Yang Lin could only lead all the riders to the west to escape from Tuo Huaigen's pursuit.
”How far are we from fresh inferior?”
”Less than a hundred kilometers.”
Seeing that fresh inferior's tribe had been massacred, Tuo Huaigen was fuming with rage, and chased after Yang Lin with his cavalry. Now that the fresh horse that Tuo Huaigen was leading was getting closer and closer, Yang Lin could not help but become a little nervous. If not for the stamina of the black horse they were riding on, they would have already been caught up by the fresh inferior.
”Brother Yang Lin, just go all out against fresh inferior.”
Zhang Fei said angrily, running away like this, Zhang Fei had long since been unwilling to do so. But Yang Lin knew, there was a ten thousand people leading the cavalry that Tuo Huaigen was leading, if they were to fight with Tuo Huaigen head on, his own troops would not be a match for Tuo Huaigen.
His subordinates were all young and strong, and they were all relying on their brothers Wu Yong to lead everyone in a battle to the death. On the other hand, Tuo Huaigen's riders were all soldiers who had experienced a long battle and there were about the same number of them, if they were to clash head on, there was no chance of victory at all.
is more anxious than us. Let them follow us and run. Let's head south! ”
The heavy noise of the war horses breaking their noses broke the silence of the snowy plains, and the continuous rise and fall of the mountain ridges could be clearly seen. These riders were dressed in fresh, humble clothes, with scimitar at their waists, a longbow slung over their shoulders, and dozens of arrows sticking out from behind their shoulders.
”large head, Scouting horse is back.”
The fresh inferior who was addressed as large head was indeed Tuo Huaigen. He wiped the snow on his face and looked ahead, and sure enough, in the snow area in front, where the sky and the earth were connected, a dozen or so black dots appeared. However, those black dots were constantly moving forward, and it was quickly possible to see that they were a group of riders.
”Did you discover the Chinese people?”
Tuo Huaigen asked to himself, revealing a trace of a smile on his ice-covered face. His smile didn't stop there, and the ice on his face started to fall down, revealing a snake-like face that was ferocious like a ghost. Even the fresh inferior beside him couldn't help but shiver.
Those people were Scouting horse s of the fresh inferior. They had practically always been behind Yang Lin and the others, and when they saw Yang Lin and the others heading towards the south, they immediately went back to report to Tuo Huaigen. When she saw Tuo Huaigen, she ran over excitedly and shouted loudly.
”Reporting, large head, about thirty miles ahead, those Chinese people suddenly turned around and headed towards the south.”
”Hahaha …”
Tuo Huaigen laughed madly, causing the snow on his body to fall and roll down. When he heard that the Chinese had gone south, he was indeed very happy. At last, the Chinese no longer dared to run westward. As long as he followed them closely, he was not afraid of them flying into the sky.
”Father, will they run back and attack our tribe?”
Tuo Huaihu became smarter after getting whipped. Those Chinese people were very insidious, maybe they just faked a shot and ran back to attack fresh inferior's tribe. He looked at Tuo Huaigen's wild and complacent laughter and immediately opened his mouth to warn him.
”It's possible.”
After hearing what Tuo Huaihu had said, Tuo Huaigen was shocked, and immediately stopped laughing. Currently, there weren't many men who could ride their horses and fight in their own tribe. If the Han people suddenly turned around and returned, the entire tribe would probably be wiped out.
”These damned Chinese people, this is definitely the idea. Tuo Huaihu, bring five thousand people with you to the tribe. I will bring eight thousand people to chase after them. ”
”Father, they have more than fifteen thousand people. You only have eight thousand people with you, is that alright?”
”Hmph, eight thousand people is enough.” Those damned Chinese, they only know how to trick. If they were to fight head on, they would not be a match. ”
”Alright, I'll go back first.”
”Let's go!”
The pair of huge iron hammers were raised towards the sky, and the more than ten thousand cavalrymen behind him howled in unison, insolently shouting out. They raised their horsewhips high into the air, fiercely smashing them down while letting out a crisp sound in the air.
Suddenly, the wind stopped blowing crazily. A hawk flew from the pale sky and glided past the distant horizon, a team of eight thousand riders, scimitar and Longbow Knights quickly headed towards the south from the north. The rumbling sounds of the horses' hooves mixed with a few chirping sounds echoed continuously in the vast snowy plains.
Tuo Huaigen twisted his butt and flexed his paralyzed body. From time to time, a fierce light flashed in his eyes. Perhaps he was really old. It was rare for someone of his age to roam the desert, and chasing after him for such a long distance had drained most of his energy.
”large head, Scouting horse is back.”
”Phew …”
Tuo Huaigen pulled the horse reins and the horse let out a long hiss. Its two front hooves leapt into the air, and the entire Cavalry slowed down. The few Scouting horse s rushed over, but before they even arrived, they were already shouting loudly.
”large head, those Chinese people suddenly turned around and headed towards the east. They seem to be heading towards our tribe's camp.”
”Ah …” These treacherous Chinese people truly had this idea. Fortunately, I sent Tuo Huaihu back first.
”Still another fifty kilometers.”
”Chase after him!”
Tuo Huaigen shouted as he swung the sledgehammer in his hands forward. The sound of rapid hoof steps could be heard in the snow, causing the earth to shake as well. Over eight thousand riders followed closely behind Tuo Huaigen, turning their horses around as they chased towards the east.
A burst of oppressive yet intense hoof sounds came from afar, like a drum beating on the hearts of Yang Lin and the others, everyone's heartbeat also continuously sped up with the sound of the hooves, and a black line appeared in the sky, gradually becoming thicker, with cold glare s flickering from time to time.
”The fresh inferior has finally arrived!”
Yang Lin muttered, at that moment, Yang Lin was actually relaxed, a smirk appeared on his face, and he finally tightened his belt, his left hand held onto a horse blade, his right hand held onto a spear, staring straight ahead. He let out a long breath. Sooner or later, this would happen.
