Xuanxia

Chapter 946: A soldier never tires of deceit
Huo Yaer blocked the charging Northern Barbarian army for the Feixiong tribe, but the army led by Tiele actually...met the Northern Frontier Army.

However, the situation seemed different from what Tiele had imagined.

He had just experienced a gambling fight with Fu Qingzhou, and the power of that arrow... was far beyond his expectations!
Even though he had almost burned his soul and used up all his strongest power in the battle, that arrow was still able to penetrate the sword flame and cripple his right hand!
That arrow can be said to have destroyed Tiele's last bit of hope of survival that day.

With this injury, you still want to fight against the Northern Frontier Army?

No matter how confident or domineering Tiele was, he had to admit that this was the last day of his life.

But precisely because of this, he no longer had any concerns, no way out, and no extra thoughts. He just wanted to burn himself out!

At this time, Tiele held the knife in his left hand, like an angry and mad yak, and rushed towards the iron hooves coming from the front!
What he wanted was a hearty, bloody battle in which life and death were not a concern!
But...when he got close to the Northern Frontier Army, he realized something was wrong.

Those who came here to kill were not the main force of the Northern Frontier Army at all!

Tiele's pupils shrank sharply!
He was really badly injured and in very poor health.

It was not until he got closer that he realized that there were less than two hundred soldiers here!
There were more than a hundred heavy cavalrymen from the Northern Frontier. They were scattered and shouted very loudly. The countless sounds of horse hooves and the vast smoke and dust... were just because they brought countless horses.

They may be war horses or wild horses, it doesn't matter.

The horses under the crotch of these heavy cavalrymen were all blindfolded and had their ears plugged. They charged forward without thinking, and the faces revealed under the masks of these cavalrymen all had hideous grins on their faces, as if they had succeeded in their evil plot.

Tiele’s head buzzed!
yes……

How could the Northern Frontier Army not use military tactics when they came to attack like this?! Where was their most powerful military tactics?

I had gone through the gambling fight and was almost crushed by the huge pressure of the past two or three days. In addition, my body and spirit had reached their limits, and my thinking ability had dropped to the lowest point. Otherwise, how could I not have discovered such an obvious flaw? !

Thinking is a matter of seconds, but when Tiele discovered all this, he immediately shouted: "Stop! Stop! This is not the main force of the Northern Frontier Army! They are..."

yes?

If there are only so few people here, then where is the main force of the Northern Frontier Army?

Tiele suddenly flew up in fear and looked around. His eyes penetrated the battlefield filled with shouts and screams, and penetrated the smoke and dust, but he saw nothing.

A terrible thought popped into his mind.

Could it be...

The main force of the Northern Frontier Army hasn't arrived yet?
No wonder they came so early...but what's the point of doing this?

Tiele's slow brain was already a little confused at this time.

From below, came the wild laughter of the Northern Frontier Army's heavy cavalry!
"Hahahaha, you Northern Yi bastards! You must be dumbfounded!"

"Come and kill me! Come and kill me!"

"There are so many of you. The Marshal must be stupid to come and fight you head-on! Whoever wants to save the Flying Bear Tribe can do so!"

"Right now, Marshal Hong is probably already drinking in your Yandu! Hahahaha——"

Tiele felt very disappointed when he heard this.

yes……

Who said that Hong Ruohai must come here?
Who said that Hong Ruohai must save the Feixiong tribe?
Yes... the scouts I sent out kept reporting that the Northern Frontier Army was chasing us from behind, so I believed it.

But, is what the scouts heard necessarily true?

Just like what is happening before our eyes, one or two hundred heavy cavalrymen with a large group of horses can deceive us, so why can't they deceive the scouts?
Tiele felt very disappointed, and so did the generals and soldiers below him, including Hai Rigu.

After they rushed closer to the "Northern Frontier Army", they naturally discovered that their enemies were actually a large group of horses. At the same time, they also heard those sarcastic voices with a sense of determination to die.

In a blink of an eye, they were submerged by a large group of horses and looked around in confusion. The one or two hundred Northern Frontier heavy cavalrymen did not kill or participate in the battle. They just ran wildly along the wings of the army, avoiding the attack of the Northern Barbarian Army and shouting mocking words.

"Damn it!"

Hai Rigu was so angry that veins on his forehead were throbbing. The usually well-mannered old general also lost his guard and shouted loudly: "Catch these bastards and kill them! Take these horses back and keep them for ourselves!"

Tiele in the sky was still thinking rapidly. He was thinking about how to judge whether the Northern Frontier Army had really gone to Yandu. If they had really gone to Yandu, how would he rescue them...

But at this moment, he heard the roar from Hai Rigu, and his mind suddenly buzzed with alarm bells!
Would the Northern Frontier Army be so foolish as to send tens of thousands of horses for a deception?

For any army, horses are strategic materials that are incredibly precious!

Even if they don't want it, how could they give it to themselves?

And the heavy cavalry, their horses were blindfolded and their ears plugged...

"no!"

Tiele Tiger's eyes widened and he roared, "Don't get close to those horses!"

As he shouted, he dived down, trying to do something... but it was too late.

In that round of counter-charge, countless horses had already mixed with the Northern Barbarians. When the soldiers heard Hai Rigu's order, they also reached out to catch the horses around them.

They were all nomadic and had first-rate horse-controlling skills. They easily climbed onto their horses one by one, whistled, and gathered some horses...

When Tiele shouted, everyone was stunned and subconsciously looked up at the sky.

But before they could even see the bloodshot face of their Great Khan, their vision was already flooded with fire and blood!
The horses exploded. Without any order or warning, the restless horses just exploded!

It doesn't matter what they ate or what symbols are hidden in their hair.

In just a moment, all the horses exploded!

Tens of millions of horses exploding at the same time would be a disaster enough to shake heaven and earth.

For a moment, the air waves rolled like a surging tide, sweeping in all directions with an overwhelming force. The violent force twisted and tore the air, making a creepy scream!

Tens of thousands of Northern Barbarians were instantly engulfed by the raging explosion. Their figures instantly disappeared in the flames and smoke. They didn't even have time to let out a scream before their lives were ruthlessly wiped out.

Tiele, who was diving down, was not spared either. The huge shock wave hit him hard like an invisible hammer.

With an explosion of such a terrifying scale, even a Xuanxing strongman would have to retreat, let alone him who was seriously injured!

He felt as if all his internal organs were shattered, and his body flew away uncontrollably. He was already seriously injured and had almost lost the perception and control of his body. He didn't even know where or when he landed.

There was only a continuous buzzing sound in his ears, which was so sharp and piercing that it almost shook his soul out of his body. The world in his eyes was spinning and blurry, filled with countless golden stars, and there was only darkness everywhere he could see.

It took a long time for Tiele to come back to his senses from the endless dizziness and tinnitus.

He coughed up blood unconsciously, stood up staggeringly, his whole body trembling, and looked forward with fear in his eyes.

What came into view was a scene of horrific tragedy.

The smoke carried by the wind filled the entire battlefield, blocking out the sky and the sun, like the haze of the end of the world. Broken limbs and broken pieces of flesh were scattered everywhere, and it was no longer possible to distinguish which were the remains of horses and which were the bodies of people.

Intermittent screams and cries of pain floated in the wind. They were the last struggles and wails of a dying man. Each cry was like a sharp blade, cutting Tiele's heart fiercely.

"why why!"

Tiele's voice had never trembled like this before, and his eyes even turned red: "Why, you won't even give me a chance to fight to the death!"

"All is fair in war. Don't you understand such a simple truth?"

In the distance, a familiar voice was heard.

The wind and smoke dispersed, and several figures rode their horses slowly and approached.

Not far away, the heavy cavalry who had just led their horses here also surrounded them.

There were hardly any casualties among these heavy cavalrymen. They had swiftly avoided the explosion just before it occurred, and their horses were blindfolded and deafened so they were hardly frightened.

They surrounded them and guarded the figures in the smoke and dust.

The first one to come was, of course, Hong Ruohai.

Beside him were several generals of the Northern Frontier Army. Tiele had dealt with these generals many times before, but his mind was in a mess at this moment and he couldn't even remember their names.

"you you……"

Tiele opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he just spat out a mouthful of blood!

Hong Ruohai looked down at him expressionlessly.

"Heroes grow old, beauties grow old..."

He said calmly: "I don't like this kind of story, and I don't intend for you to die heroically."

"In my eyes, you are nothing more than a bandit and a horse bandit. I don't want you to die a worthy death."

"By the way, I'll tell you one more thing..."

"Although I didn't go to Yandu to drink, my soldiers have reported that the wine you brewed in Yandu is not very good."

After saying that, Hong Ruohai kicked the horse's belly under his crotch and started to speed up.

The horse ran faster and faster, and he slowly drew out the sword from his waist.

His right hand had not yet recovered, and like Tiele, he held the weapon in his left hand.

Tiele shook his body and revealed an extremely ugly smile.

Hong Ruohai's horse ran faster and faster, gradually turning into a black shadow.

The black shadow passed by Tiele like the wind. Tiele wanted to move, but he didn't even have the strength to raise his hand.

The wind blew, and the sword returned to its sheath, leaving only a splash of blood on the ground.

"Uu——"

Hong Ruohai pulled the reins and didn't even look back.

With a thud, there was a heavy fall sound behind him.

"Humph... Tiele is here, which means Fu Qingzhou lost the bet."

He shook his head: "Ling Jiao is right, this kid always takes things to the extreme... Fortunately, he is not fighting alone."
