Chapter 20 A Small Test, the Battle of Fengcun!

"Return to General, ready."

With the clatter of hooves, a cavalryman came forward on a war horse.

"very good!"

The Blood Butcher said with satisfaction.

This time he had to go around to the rear of the Tang Dynasty and attack Huanglong. The task was very important. And if he succeeds, he will be promoted again, and maybe he can become an effective general under the general.

Then, he seemed to have thought of something and asked the cavalryman who was about to return to the team:

"The scouts reported back a few days ago. Is there some third prince from the Tang Dynasty?"

"Yes, according to the latest news, the third prince has arrived at the Longxi military camp. In addition, according to the news we got from the capital, it seems that the third prince took the initiative to come and deal with us."

Hearing the Blood Butcher's question, the cavalryman immediately stopped and lowered his head.

"Hmph, you are going to die if you come here. This kind of idiot prince, Zhongtu Shenzhou, doesn't know about it, but it gives us an advantage. I ordered you to capture the third prince of the Tang Empire alive when you see him, and then tie him to the plateau to insult the Tang Dynasty."

The blood butcher had a ferocious smile on his face and sneered.

"yes!"

The cavalryman replied.

And soon, the Blood Butcher turned the horse's head, clamped the horse's belly, and said in a loud voice towards the mighty thousand-man cavalry behind him:

"Set off!"

…

At night, the moon and stars were sparse, and it was obviously the dead of night, but the sound of galloping horses came from the distance. Looking carefully, I saw a group of Uzang cavalry galloping past from a distance without any disguise.

They traveled from far to near with a straight path and a clear goal - Fengcun!

There is a large population here, and many female family members of the Longxi Army are here. Attacking and killing here will have the greatest impact and shock on the Longxi Army.

"Hurry up! Fight quickly and occupy this place. Don't give the Tang people time to report the news."

Among the galloping Uzang cavalry team, Blood Butcher took the lead and shouted loudly to the cavalry behind him.

Hearing the sound, the Uzang cavalry immediately clamped down on their horses and their speed increased sharply.

They were already familiar with this kind of thing. In their eyes, these Tang people were simply lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

"Something's wrong."

However, after they galloped for a certain distance, the Blood Butcher looked at the village not far away. Suddenly, he frowned and a thought passed through his mind.

They were good horsemen and men in the wind. The Blood Butcher felt something was wrong at this moment. This village seemed very different from the villages they had robbed before.

However, this thought just passed by, and the Blood Butcher didn't think much about it, and soon led the Uzang people to continue running forward.

——The news about their direct attack on Huanglong and their fight against Fengcun was kept absolutely secret. Even many people within the team didn’t know about it until they left, let alone others.

And the Tang people in Longxi..., hum, it's not that I look down on them. They have followed behind so many times in the past, and they couldn't even catch a shit. This time, it is even more impossible to track their whereabouts.

"Humph, I guess I'm overthinking it."

The Blood Butcher laughed mockingly.

Rumbling, the sound of horse hooves became more and more intense. However, just when they entered Feng Village, the Blood Butcher finally realized that something was wrong.

I also understand why I felt a little uneasy before.

Fengcun is so quiet!

It's so quiet!

If they were far away before, everyone was asleep and didn't notice it, but now, they were less than 500 meters away from the village, and the sound of horse hooves rumbled like thunder, and only the dead could not feel it.

and--

It’s just a human being, why isn’t there even a dog barking?

"Sir, something is wrong!"

Next to him, a cavalryman frowned and said.

Not to mention the Blood Butcher, even the soldiers under his command noticed something was wrong.

call out!

Soon enough, at this moment, a sharp cold light belonging to a weapon passed through the blood butcher's eyes like a bolt of lightning. In an instant, the blood butcher's face changed and he shouted loudly:

"No, there's an ambush! Escape quickly!"

The Blood Butcher's heart was beating so fast that it almost reached his throat.

"Uh-huh!"

In an instant, the expressions of all the Wuszang cavalry changed drastically.

The next moment, before they could react, countless Tang soldiers were densely packed, holding swords, pouring out from the eaves, inside people's houses, in the alleys between houses... like a torrent, surrounding the Uzang cavalry. got up.

"How come there are so many Tang/juns?"

Seeing this scene, the Uzang cavalry looked extremely shocked, especially the Blood Butcher.

But soon, the Blood Butcher came back to his senses, with a stern look on his face, and commanded:

"Don't panic! Fight!"

In an instant, these Uzang cavalry immediately stood up and with a clang, they drew out the long knives on their waists, gleaming brightly, and assumed combat postures.

"Roa!"

And at this moment, an unusual sound came into the ears of the Uzang cavalry. Immediately afterwards, before the Wuszang cavalry could react, a loud shout came into their ears from a distance:

"shooting!"

The next moment, when the Wuszang cavalry realized something, in an instant, countless arrows were overwhelming, falling from the sky like a rain of arrows.

"cover!"

"It's an archer from the Tang Dynasty!"

"Hide quickly!"

…

For a moment, all the Wuszang cavalry looked shocked and immediately became confused.

They were all sword-wielding cavalry. Because they were Kou Bian guerrillas who fought quickly, they went into battle lightly and did not bring shield soldiers at all. At this moment, when the arrows rained down, many Uzang cavalry were immediately beaten into sieves. He died on the spot.

In just a moment, a number of Wuszang cavalrymen were shot by those arrows, one arrow penetrated them, and they fell to the ground. Some cavalrymen were frightened by their horses, and their front legs were in the air, standing like a human being, throwing them off. In the end, they were trampled to death when their horses panicked.

"hateful!"

The Blood Butcher gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with disbelief.

He had never thought that the opponent's attack power could be so sharp and terrifying.

It was not that they had not dealt with the Tang people, but the Tang army in front of them looked much more terrifying than any previous Longxi army.

Before they could attack, they were already routed in the first wave of contact.

The Blood Butcher waved the long knife in his hand and glanced around fiercely.

Although they don’t know who planned this ambush of the Tang people, and although the current situation is extremely unfavorable, they have not lost yet. According to past experience, as long as they find the leader of this Tang people and kill him in one fell swoop, they can turn defeat into victory and defeat this group of people. The Tang people were defeated in one fell swoop!

"Found it! Give me a knife!"

The Blood Butcher's eyes flashed, and he saw a man in the Tang Army in the distance, riding on a horse with an imposing figure. He immediately knew that was his target, and without hesitation, he immediately slapped the horse, and suddenly flew away from the horse. , and slashed towards that person.

"Your Highness, be careful!"

The intruder was so fierce that Cui Sheng, who was responsible for Li Taiyi's safety, noticed this scene. His expression tightened and he suddenly drew his knife in front of the third prince.

General Guo Dingguo entrusted the safety of His Highness Three Princes to him. Even if he valued him, Cui Sheng would definitely live up to his expectations.

In an instant, Cui Sheng held back his energy and tensed his body, waiting for the bloody butcher's powerful blow. However, unexpectedly——

At the moment when the Blood Butcher flew out to the highest point, Li Taiyi looked calm, twitched his backhand, bent his bow and nocked an arrow, and heard a hiss, and a long arrow flew out with lightning and thunder.

"boom!"

The arrow was so powerful that it directly pierced the Blood Butcher's forehead and heart, and even threw the Blood Butcher's body backwards. It shot at least ten meters before falling to the ground with a loud bang, causing billowing smoke and dust.

At that moment, Cui Sheng was dumbfounded, his eyes full of shock. Even the Wuszang cavalry who were still fighting had forgotten to resist and were shocked when they saw this scene.

In an instant, the entire Fengcun battlefield was as silent as death. Everyone looked at the man on the horse in the Tang Army in shock, and they were speechless.

The hidden front is revealed for the first time and becomes a blockbuster!

Everyone thought he was an embroidered pillow-like prince, but this attack was an archery skill that could only be achieved by a battle-hardened general. Moreover, looking at Li Taiyi's expression, he was calm, without a trace of panic, showing his naturalness. The momentum he unleashed was as sharp as a sword, making people tremble.

"Shot!"

On the other side, Li Taiyi just glanced at the battlefield and immediately gave an order without any hesitation.

In an instant, all the archers came to their senses, bent their bows and set arrows, and started aiming and shooting in an orderly manner.

Whoosh!

The orders from the Tang Dynasty came so quickly that the Uzang cavalry had no time to fight back. In addition, the commander was shot on the spot, and the morale of the army was immediately in chaos. In an instant, one after another Uzang cavalry was shot through by the Tang archers. Fall off the horse.

In the eyes of these Uzang cavalry, every arrow seemed to have been tempered for thousands of times, and no arrow was missed. Not one arrow missed, and all of them hit them.

In an instant, the Uzang cavalry became even more panicked.

"Go back to camp, go back to camp!"

I don't know who shouted first, as if it was a signal. In an instant, all the Uzang cavalry turned their horses and ran away in panic.

However, the Tang Dynasty did not give them this opportunity at all. The Uzang cavalry could only take two steps on horseback. Even as soon as they turned their horses' heads, they were shot by arrows one after another.

One hundred, two hundred, three hundred... In an instant, countless Uzang cavalry were knocked to the ground like wheat.

Soon, all the thousand-man cavalry of Uzang were wiped out by the Tang archers, leaving no one left!

"Your Highness, they have all been wiped out."

The hoofs of the war horses clattered, Wang Haibin led several archers, ordered and prohibited, stopped in front of Li Taiyi, and bowed towards Li Taiyi.

"good."

Li Taiyi glanced at the archer troops behind Wang Haibin, nodded lightly, and affirmed.

These archers had already ordered Wang Haibin to start training before Li Taiyi came to Longxi.

Although the Uzang people are on a plateau, they are also nomadic people, warriors on horseback. The strongest in the Tang Dynasty are infantry, and it is difficult to please these cavalry.

However, as long-distance weapons, bows and arrows are the best weapons to deal with cavalry. Unfortunately, the Tang Dynasty had very few talents in this field, and even if they did, they would not be able to go to the battlefield on a large scale.

Fortunately, Li Taiyi's experience in his previous life is still there. Although it was a dark time of humiliation for Li Taiyi, he learned a lot of archery skills from the Turks.

——Otherwise, when he first participated in the martial arts competition, how could Li Taiyi cross the target at every step and hit the bull's-eye?

Therefore, after the initial establishment of this archer unit, Li Taiyi spared no effort to instill all his knowledge into it, so that he could achieve today's victory.

"Who are you?"

"Go back to camp!"

In the distance, the sky gradually became brighter and turned white. Li Taiyi immediately turned the horse's head and gave an order.

As soon as Li Taiyi finished speaking, all Tang/Military orders were banned, the troops were reorganized, and they headed towards the border camp in Longxi.

…

In a blink of an eye, it was already bright.

At this moment, outside the camps on the border of Uzang, groups of cavalry looked solemn and ready to go. Except for the sound of the horses rushing, there was no sound.

Looking carefully, they were almost all looking at the largest tent in the camp, as if waiting for the people inside to issue orders.

"I've been waiting all night, why is there no news about the Blood Butcher guy? Is it so difficult to defeat a mere Feng Village?"

While everyone was waiting, a loud roar came from the camp, which seemed to shake the entire camp.
