Are you crazy? Trying to trick him into military service? He's the number one dragon on the fro

After Lu Xiao and his men withdrew, in order to avoid encountering the main force of the Black Sand Chariot army returning from attacking the outpost, they deliberately took a detour in the direction they had come from, and had people rest on horseback in batches as they walked.

They knew very well that even if the Black Sand Chuo tribe's army returned empty-handed, they could still retain six or seven hundred men who were ready to fight.

But there's an old saying that goes, "What you fear most is what will happen!"

As they traveled until the hour of Si (9-11 AM), the sun gradually rose higher in the sky. Huang Shan, who had been scouting ahead, hurriedly returned with two veteran soldiers.

"Gentlemen, something's happened!"

"Shuji's large force is already blocking our way home; we'll be discovered in another quarter of an hour or two!"

Upon hearing this, a look of panic flashed across everyone's eyes.

At this point, a veteran suggested a retreat:

"Gentlemen, why don't we abandon the captured warhorses and go back to a more distant location?"

"For now, I'm afraid this is the only way..."

Zhou Daxing, Zhao Xiaoqi, and others nodded in agreement.

The night's battle left them physically and mentally exhausted, and their tense spirits had relaxed considerably. Avoiding battle was the best option to preserve their strength.

Lu Xiao sneered upon hearing this:

Should I avoid his sharp edge?

"Gentlemen, we dared to go even to the main camp of the Black Sand Clan. Although we are not at our peak, the number of warhorses behind us is enough to greatly enhance the military strength of our Great Zhou!"

"Are we just going to return them to that old man, Shuji?"

After saying that, he looked at Mount Huangshan:

"Uncle Huang, how are Shuji's troops doing?"

"They look like a weary army!"

"Then let's fight!"

Lu Xiao immediately waved and shouted:

"Gentlemen, our centurion has led only seventy comrades to fight against an army of a thousand to support our operation. Even if we win, we will likely suffer losses."

"The old man Shuji is leading the true elite of the Black Sand Chuo tribe. If we let them go back to the mountains, once they recover their strength, the outpost will surely suffer endless retaliation."

"Why not take this opportunity to cripple them and completely extinguish their wolfish ambitions to covet my Great Zhou!"

"Now, on my command, drive away all the captured warhorses..."

"Charge!"

At the command, everyone abandoned their weariness, immediately aimed at the location of Shuji's headquarters, gripped their weapons and charged forward.

After listening to Lu Xiao's words, they realized something—

When Shuji returns to his main camp and finds it burned to the ground, he will surely be furious.

Everyone knew perfectly well how much damage six or seven hundred avengers, driven by a death wish, would cause to the outpost and even Changyang County.

So they can't run!

"Kill the prisoners!"

While Shuji was marching in frustration, he suddenly heard shouts of charge from ahead. He was stunned for a moment and quickly looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a dark mass of warhorses galloping towards them.

Although he could see that the enemy only numbered thirty, the distance between them was no longer enough for him to lead his warriors to charge at high speed!

He and his eldest son, Shulie, hurriedly commanded the army to fight, but before they could even form a battle formation, they were scattered by the surging warhorses.

Lu Xiao gripped the black dragon spear, leaned forward on his horse, and watched as the army drew closer and closer. He tightened his grip on the spear.

Zhou Daxing shouted loudly from the side:

"Lu Xiao, you are the bravest among us, so whether we win this battle depends entirely on your performance!"

"Did you get a good look at that old man in black armor and a crimson helmet, and the silver-robed man beside him?"

"They are Heisha Chuobu Sijin and Wang Yuan, the traitor of my Great Zhou!"

"Especially that Wang Yuan, who eats the food of my Great Zhou and studies the teachings of my Great Zhou sages, yet willingly advises these barbarians and helps them harm our own kind!"

"If we kill them, victory is assured!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Xiao's gaze sharpened, and he then slapped the horse's rump hard to accelerate.

Hu Zhou Daxing, Huang Shan, Zhao Xiaoqi and other squad leaders went with him, their goal set on Shuji!

Rumbling--

In an instant, the two torrents collided and merged, causing warhorses to neigh and battles to erupt.

When Shu Lie saw someone charging towards his father, he immediately roared with bloodshot eyes:

"Get past me first!"

"Your opponent is me!"

Zhao Xiaoqi responded immediately and then charged forward.

Back then, two of his four brothers and father died at the hands of Shu Lie, so when he saw him, he saw nothing but this irreconcilable enemy!

Ding ding!

On the other side, Lu Xiao raised his hand and chopped down, breaking the curved knife in Shu Ji's hand and causing the opponent's arm to go numb, his body suddenly sinking.

As the two passed each other, Shuji was shocked and enraged:

"And who are you?"

He had never heard of a warrior wielding a gun in the White Wolf outpost; that shot had almost made him vomit blood.

"Your killer is Lu Xiao, the sergeant of the White Wolf outpost!"

Lu Xiao turned his horse around, swept his spear across the other man's neck, and introduced himself.

Shuji hastily raised his sword to defend, barely dodging the attack. He glanced around at the situation and his heart sank to the bottom.

The group of stray warhorses that had wandered into the army were terrified and ran wildly, knocking dozens of warriors to the ground.

He then shouted loudly:

"Reorganize the troops! Don't lose formation!"

"You should take care of yourself first!"

Lu Xiao smiled slightly, thrusting his spear forward, intending to strike Shuji in the heart, but the opponent nimbly dodged it.

He immediately slapped the gun barrel and used the rebound to throw a punch.

"puff--"

Shuji had not expected his strength to be so great, and he immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

Before he could prepare to deal with the next move, Lu Xiao struck again.

A flash of cold light appeared first, followed by the spear thrusting out like a dragon!

puff!puff!

The Black Dragon Spear pierced several bloody holes in Shuji's body.

Seeing Lu Xiao aiming his attack at his heart, Shuji sneered:

"I forged a breastplate from meteorite iron from outer space; even if your spear pierces it, it won't be able to break through your defenses!"

"Yeah?"

puff--

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Xiao released the Black Dragon Spear. The spear stood horizontally, its tip emerging from Shuji's back, dripping blood.

"Father!"

Seeing this scene, Shu Lie, who was not far away, was instantly filled with rage and roared as he was about to rush forward, but he was blocked by Zhao Xiaoqi and Gao Hong and could not break free.

puff-

Lu Xiao sheathed his spear, gave Shu Lie a cold look, and shouted:

"kill!"

Taking advantage of the chaos, the silver-robed strategist Wang Yuanben hid under the corpses of several Hu soldiers, hoping to slip through unnoticed.

But soon he suddenly realized that the corpse on his body had been ripped off, and when he looked up, he saw a blood-covered Zhou soldier holding a gun looking at him expressionlessly.

He immediately raised his hands and shouted:

"I am a citizen of the Great Zhou. I was forcibly taken away by Shuji, but my heart has always been with the Great Zhou..."

"Traitors should be executed!"

Lu Xiao didn't even want to hear him finish speaking. He directly pierced the man's heart with his spear and then ran towards the next Hu soldier without looking back.

Shuji was dead, and Shulie, seriously wounded, was finally able to temporarily leave the battle under the protection of several personal guards.

He also wanted to avenge his father, but was stopped by the guards:

"Centurion, we must return to camp immediately, reorganize the troops, and seize the position of commander!"
