Chapter 300: Can We Win Victories in a Row?
Seeing that there were at least six or seven thousand, or even nearly ten thousand barbarian soldiers and horses, they started to fall into chaos just because a few hundred of them who were in the front were shot off their horses and their lives or deaths were unknown!
Liu Feiyun swung the long sword in his hand and shouted, "Everyone, follow me to kill the barbarians and avenge our blood feud! Kill!" Then he took the lead to kill the barbarians.
Chen Tingyuan and Sima Mingqu followed closely beside Liu Feiyun, with personal guards at their sides! The Tiemu brothers each brought their wives, and the four little giants quickly surpassed Liu Feiyun and the other two, taking the lead in fighting the barbarians who were in the front.
These seven people, like the tip of a sharp knife, pierced fiercely into the chaotic barbarian army.
Behind the seven men, thousands of infantrymen threw away their bows and crossbows, tightly grasped their swords and spears, and followed quickly with great enthusiasm.
Once close combat begins, the true combat power of both sides will be immediately exposed.
Although 70% to 80% of the Xuehen Army were wearing armor, they were essentially just a group of civilians who were temporarily armed, and their combat effectiveness was really too poor!
They don't know any fighting skills, don't understand any formations, and even their hands that are holding the weapons are shaking!
But at this moment, inspired by the desire to avenge their loved ones, their blood was boiling and they no longer cared about their own lives. They rushed towards the barbarian cavalry fearlessly.
They hacked and stabbed indiscriminately, and one by one the Northern Wilderness cavalrymen died in this chaotic attack.
On the other hand, although the barbarians also have an armor-wearing rate of 70% to 80%, their combat effectiveness is far inferior to that of the temporarily armed Bodyguard Army.
After Liu Feiyun defeated and killed more than a dozen barbarian soldiers, he finally verified his previous conjecture:
Although this barbarian army is similar to ours in terms of numbers and armor coverage, the quality of its soldiers is far inferior to ours.
At least most of the people on our side were strong young laborers. On the barbarian side, they were either old men or young boys. The occasional males in their prime were mostly skinny and pale, or sickly and weak.
Old, weak and disabled soldiers are the best description of this barbarian army.
It was no wonder that as soon as the two sides came into contact, the barbarian soldiers were defeated after only a few hundred casualties.
This is a paper tiger that scares people.
I think the troops that are really used to intercept the Grey Eagle tribe's barbarians should be deployed in the east.
As the barbarian army lost its footing, the cavalry's charge was no longer effective, and with the Blood Hatred cavalry attacking from both wings, the barbarian army soon collapsed completely.
This battle came and went quickly. It was over in less than half an hour.
However, Liu Feiyun did not have the time to completely wipe out the remaining barbarians, but instead ordered the entire army to attack westward without rest.
Because after the battle just now, he had already figured out the details of the barbarians within a radius of more than 200 miles.
Now in this area, there is not even a decent man left. At this time, the camps of nearly a hundred tribes, large and small, are like fat meat on the chopping board for him to enjoy at will.
Among these nearly one hundred tribes, there are tens of thousands of Chen slaves. If he absorbs them and incorporates them into his own Blood Hatred Army, then he can become a true military commander.
Once they have tens of thousands of troops, let alone their actual combat power, just the scale alone is enough to shock the barbarians.
However, when his army was heading west, Liu Feiyun led his personal guard battalion to the Grey Eagle tribe's captives. There were still some things he had to do.
Hundreds of Grey Eagle prisoners with their hands tied were gathered together. They looked in horror at Liu Feiyun who was surrounded by a group of soldiers wearing imperial standard armor.
Although Liu Feiyun looked too young, the captives knew that this young man was the one who could decide their life and death with just a single word.
"Who among you holds the highest official position? Or the highest status?"
Liu Feiyun asked.
No one answered.
Liu Feiyun waited for dozens of breaths, but no one answered. He frowned and said patiently, "I need someone of sufficient weight to pass on a message to your Sky Khan! If there is no one among you, then kill them all! Don't waste my time!"
As soon as Liu Feiyun finished speaking, the soldiers around him immediately brandished their weapons and walked towards the barbarian captives.
"Wait a minute! Sir! I am Kechechena, the captain of the Grey Eagle tribe! I am the confidant of the eldest son of our chieftain, and I am willing to pass on a message for you! Please... please spare my life!"
Someone shouted loudly.
Liu Feiyun raised his hand to signal the soldiers to stop, and then said:
"Captain of the Thousand! The confidant of the eldest son of the chief of the Grey Eagle tribe! Hmm! It can be considered as a bit important!"
"I'm Liu Feiyun, the commander of the Yunliu Camp, one of the five student camps under the Imperial Guard. But I'm probably more familiar to you all by my other name. The son of Butcher Liu, the Little Butcher!"
"Now, I have a new identity, the commander of the Dachen civilian militia and the revenge army."
"I am ready to lead tens of thousands of my revenge army westward to the shores of Sirius Lake to rescue our compatriots who have been abducted by you barbarians!"
"But I also know that your barbarian tribes are not one! The three large-scale raids on our northern land were carried out by the Cangmang tribes, not your Aokong tribes!"
"So, I'm going to make a deal with your Sky Khan! Let's have a collaboration!"
"I want to cooperate with him and jointly sweep the shores of Sirius Lake! I only want people and weapons to arm these people, as well as necessary supplies! As for the other supplies that I can't take away! Including the extra weapons and all the iron materials, you can leave them all to your Aokong tribes! Oh! And those barbarian slaves who are willing to serve you!"
"Moreover, I will lead my revenge army to charge in the front, and you, the armies of the Aokong tribes, just need to follow behind and pick up the slack!"
"This is what I want you to tell Sky Khan! To show my sincerity, all the remaining supplies here will be left to you. In addition, I will leave 300 sets of leather armor and 100 war horses!"
"You listened to me. Do you understand? Yes, yes, yes. I listened to the adults. I will definitely follow the adults. Parent-child. Give me the sweat of the sky again.
That's good. I hope your Skyhan is a smart man. Someone is coming. Untie his ropes. Let's go!"
In the short three days that followed, Liu Feiyun's revenge army divided into several groups and marched westward, sweeping away nearly a hundred small tribes along the way.
None of these tribes had more than a thousand tents. In these tribes, not to mention young and strong men, there were not many teenagers or old men over sixty years old. Each tribe had only a few hundred people at most, and they had very few weapons and almost no armor.
As a result, the Xuehen Army was invincible and won battle after battle along the way.
When Liu Feiyun saw Sirius Lake, his Xuehen Army had already rescued tens of thousands of Chen slaves and incorporated them all into the Xuehen Army.
At this point, the size of the Vengeance Army finally exceeded 50,000, and finally attracted the attention of all parties.
