Chapter 32: Shooting the Eagle
"What, Huleiduo is actually dead!"
Tuo Lu looked at the corpses covering the ground before him, his eyes filled with disbelief.
This was an elite iron cavalry force of two thousand men!
It was an elite force that, if placed on the battlefield, could completely break through tens of thousands of Wei soldiers.
Even when facing the cavalry of Wei, they could still manage to fight one against two or even three.
Yet the result now was that our two thousand elite cavalry had been completely wiped out.
"My lord, this defies logic. How could this Wei unit possibly possess such formidable power!"
"I am puzzled as well!"
Tuo Lu pinched his chin and pondered for a moment.
"Go notify Hu Leize, tell him to rendezvous with us immediately. Say that Huleiduo has been killed in battle, the opponent's strength cannot be underestimated, and we must consolidate our forces to annihilate them."
"Yes!"
The scout immediately went to convey Tuo Lu's order.
They prepared to merge the two teams into one to jointly annihilate this Wei cavalry that had snuck into their rear hinterland.
The scene shifts.
After Chu Feng led his troops to completely annihilate Huleiduo, he immediately left the scene.
He only stopped to rest by a river after a forced march of several hundred li.
"Everyone rest here, set up pots to cook, and treat the wounded."
"Yes!"
The group dismounted one after another and began to settle down.
The scouts led by Niu Yuan took on the task of keeping watch.
The injured personnel were all settled to have their wounds treated.
As for those soldiers who died in battle, they were buried on the spot.
Chu Feng also took advantage of this moment to open his information panel.

【Realm: Postnatal Mid Stage】
【Strength: 24,000 jin】
【Talent: Elite Archer+】

After some deliberation, Chu Feng still chose to improve his cultivation.
Five hundred Killing Points were immediately added to his cultivation sequence.
【Name: Chu Feng】

【Strength: 31,000 jin】

【Killing Points: 223】
"Hoo!"
Only after raising his cultivation to the Post-Heaven Late Stage did Chu Feng heave a sigh of relief.
Possessing such formidable strength was his primary source of confidence for dealing with the upcoming battles.
"My lord, time to eat!"
Zhang He walked into Chu Feng's tent at this moment, carrying two lamb legs.
"Zhang, don't be so formal in private!"
Chu Feng took the lamb leg handed over by Zhang He and began to eat it in large mouthfuls.
It must be said, the lamb legs on these grasslands truly tasted excellent, without a hint of gamey smell.
"Zhang, don't you feel that today's situation is a bit unusual?"
"Oh? How so?"
Zhang He asked while gnawing on a lamb leg.
Chu Feng put down the lamb leg in his hand: "Today, after we annihilated the Xiongnu's logistics transport, we were caught up by the Xiongnu iron cavalry not long after. Don't you find that strange?"
"That is true, but we have been making quite a stir lately. The Xiongnu must have increased their scouting patrols. In the future, our situation will only become increasingly difficult and passive!"
"That is true!"
Chu Feng responded, then silently began to gnaw on his lamb leg again.
It was at this moment that the sound of an eagle's cry suddenly appeared in the sky.
"Hm?"
"An eagle!"
Chu Feng suddenly realized something was wrong.
He recalled a capability possessed by those ethnic minorities from his past life.
Eagle training!
They train eagles to be their tools to help them hunt.
Now that they are dealing with the Xiongnu, the other side should also possess such capabilities.
After walking out of the camp tent, Chu Feng saw the two eagles circling above their heads at a glance.
"So that's how it is!"
"No wonder those Xiongnu cavalrymen know where we are!"
A chilling murderous aura erupted from the corners of Chu Feng's eyes.
If not for these two eagles, they would not have been so passive.
Saying this, Chu Feng drew his bow and notched an arrow, preparing to shoot down these two eagles.
"It won't work; these two eagles are flying too high and too fast. My current archery level is clearly not enough."
Seeing that he could not achieve his goal.
Chu Feng immediately used all his remaining Killing Points on his archery talent.
【Name: Chu Feng】
【Race: Human】
【Cultivation Techniques: "Qi Refining Technique" (Minor Accomplishment) + "Eighteen Wind-Chasing Sabers" (Great Accomplishment), "Tyrant Spear" (Minor Accomplishment), "Purple Firmament Profound Heaven Art" (Entry Level)】
【Realm: Post-Heaven Late Stage】
【Strength: 31,000 catties】
【Talent: Master Archer】
【Killing Points: 23】
After upgrading his archery skill to Master level.
Chu Feng's mastery of the bow and arrow was once again greatly improved.
More archery techniques and insights were all poured into his mind.
He even felt a bond of blood connection with the longbow in his hand.
"Great!"
The improvement in his archery skills made Chu Feng overjoyed.
Afterwards, he immediately drew the longbow once again.
"Is the Commander going to shoot that eagle?"
"Nonsense, isn't that obvious!"
"Then do you think the Commander can shoot down that eagle?"
"He probably can't! After all, this eagle is flying so high and is so fast!"
"That's right, there's an eighty percent chance he won't be able to shoot it down!"
The surrounding soldiers whispered to each other.
Almost everyone believed that Chu Feng did not have the ability to shoot down this eagle.
After all, the skill of shooting an eagle is not something to be taken lightly.
And those who can shoot down an eagle are all master-level expert archers.
Whoosh!
The arrow left the string in an instant.
It headed straight for the eagle circling in the air.
"Caw!"
One of the eagles instantly let out a miserable shriek.
Then it quickly plummeted from the sky.
"What?"
The scene before them left everyone present in shock.
They did not expect that Chu Feng had actually managed to shoot down an eagle.
Then, before they could even marvel at it.
Chu Feng shot another arrow.
This arrow was just like the one before.
The last eagle was also shot down by Chu Feng.
"My god, this arrow..."
"Even an expert archer couldn't do better than this!"
Everyone was left dumbfounded by this stunt of Chu Feng's.
What a formidable technique this must be!
To be able to even shoot down an eagle.
Just as everyone was preparing to congratulate and praise Chu Feng.
They received an order from Chu Feng to move the camp immediately.
"Everyone, break camp and move out immediately!"
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
The crowd did not understand why Chu Feng wanted them to move the camp now.
But since it was an order issued by Chu Feng, they naturally would not have the slightest intention of disobeying.
"My lord, why must we move the camp so urgently?"
Xiang Yuan stepped forward and asked.
He did not understand why Chu Feng wanted to do this.
"The two eagles I just shot down were a reconnaissance method of the Xiongnu; they have already discovered us, we must evacuate immediately!"
"What?"
Chu Feng's answer could not help but make Xiang Yuan feel surprised.
Although he had always been stationed at the border, this was the first time he had heard that the Xiongnu people actually possessed such methods.
In fact, this could not be blamed on him.
After all, he was only stationed at the border and had not delved deeply into understanding the situation regarding the Xiongnu.
Just as Chu Feng was preparing to call for someone to bring Niu Yuan's scout squad back.
He heard someone shouting toward his direction.
