Chapter 321

Several cavalrymen appeared in Wei Yuan's field of vision; they were all wearing red armor, and one of them was holding a banner with the character "Fu" written on it.

Xu Yi stood beside Wei Yuan and said: "Prince Fu's men? That little kid also came to participate in the hunt? Why aren't these people under him doing their proper work and running here?"

Wei Yuan stroked his chin; how would he know why Prince Fu's men were running here when they had nothing to do?

Looking from afar, Wei Yuan felt that the scenery around those cavalrymen was somewhat distorted, as if water vapor was rising, and it was shadowy and not very clear.

But they were just a few small soldiers, and Wei Yuan didn't care, saying: "Don't worry about them."

Those cavalrymen also discovered Wei Yuan's position, stopped in place, and one rider rode away quickly. A moment later he returned, followed by more than a hundred infantrymen, whose clothing looked the same as Prince Fu's men. This action seemed like summoning companions to bolster their courage.

Behind the hill at the end of the flat terrain in the distance, several thousand Liao tribesmen were lurking, and the leader only poked out two eyes to observe Wei Yuan's position. This place had no forest or water, was far from the treasure vault, and there were not many Liao camps nearby, which meant there was no autumn hunt merit.

The sudden appearance of a position in such a barren and remote place simply defied common sense!

Seeing about a hundred of Prince Fu's subordinates bypass Wei Yuan's position from afar and walk north all the way, the Liao leader breathed a sigh of relief and began to think about the next step of the arrangement.

It's just a pity that the armor and weapons of a certain Military Governor picked up on the road were a bit few, and a large number of tribesmen could not change their equipment. How these people would get past would take some thought. At this time, they were only one step away from escaping the hunting ground, and the real battle was breaking through the interception of the two thousand human defensive troops; it would be best if they could pass safely right now.

Just as the Liao leader was thinking, suddenly the earth shook, and he saw hundreds of iron cavalry charge out of the position, actually killing toward Prince Fu's subordinates!

This change was sudden, and the Liao leader's mind went blank for a moment, not knowing how to respond.

In the position, Xu Yi asked with some doubt: "Why are you hitting them?"

Wei Yuan said solemnly: "I think they are provoking us."

"Provoking, how are they provoking?"

"They keep staring at me," Wei Yuan said.

Xu Yi of course knew this was a joke, understood that Wei Yuan didn't want to say, and stopped asking.

Wei Yuan really couldn't say; he couldn't say that whenever he thought of Prince Fu, he suddenly felt a sense of inexplicable disgust. Competing with a seven-year-old child, Wei Yuan couldn't afford to lose that face.

Hundreds of iron cavalry caught up with that group of Prince Fu's subordinates like a storm, and in an instant, they slaughtered their opponents cleanly. Cui Yu, who was leading the team, suddenly turned back and shouted: "These are all Liao tribesmen! They used a Daoist technique to change their appearance!"

Hearing this, Wei Yuan immediately gasped; the Liao tribesmen were truly cunning! If it weren't for his inexplicable dislike of children, he really would have let them slip past!

Even Wei Yuan didn't discover that the level of the Liao tribesmen's Daoist technique to change their appearance was truly extremely high. Although Wei Yuan didn't care about small soldiers and didn't deliberately use his divine sense to look, being able to deceive him meant their Daoist supernatural powers were also extraordinary.

Wei Yuan immediately understood that this team was just the vanguard of the Liao tribesmen scouting the path, and the main force was probably still behind. As for the Prince Fu's men who were replaced, they were naturally in bad luck.

Wei Yuan immediately recalled the iron cavalry and said: "Prepare for battle! Level one preparation!"

Wei Yuan left one hundred people in the center of the position as a reserve force, and everyone else entered the position. All the knights took out the oil-paper wrapped ammunition from their backpacks, placed them in the position, and then stroked them one by one with Dao power. The ammunition instantly took on a layer of oily sheen, becoming slippery and easy to load. After placing the ammunition, they took out two-foot-long straight-edged bayonets and clicked them onto the steel pipe guns.

Seeing hundreds of iron cavalry charge out of the position, the Liao leader's face sank like water, and he gritted his teeth and said: "The human race is indeed shameless, actually deploying a cavalry force here! If we don't take them out, none of us will survive. Reorganize the team, bows and crossbows in front, attack with force!"

The terrain here to the north is flat, and under the pursuit and slaughter of hundreds of heavy cavalry, they simply cannot escape a hundred miles. Rather than being gradually slaughtered during the flight, it is better to fight to the death here!

Heavy armored knights are equally terrifying when dismounted for infantry combat, but the Liao leader knew he had no other choice; there was only one battle!

As the Liao tribesmen appeared all over the mountains and plains, Xu Yi was also shocked beyond measure. What shocked her most was not the large number of Liao tribesmen, but that they were wearing Western Jin armor and holding Western Jin weapons in their hands.

"Crown Prince, Prince Fu, Wei Wang... Military Governor of Yunxiang, oh, this clothing was discarded by us... Six families? Were all six families wiped out?" Xu Yi was truly incredulous. Cui Yu also said: "Every country has the tradition of the autumn hunt, and there are many who use alien races as prey. But like the Western Jin, getting the alien race to form an army while their own hunters are wiped out, I have truly never heard of it."

"Who knows what the Jin King is doing behind the scenes again," Xu Yi said.

Wei Yuan frowned slightly and said to Xu Yi: "Tell them to let them bypass from the side; we won't attack."

Xu Yi shouted loudly, but a sky-shaking laughter erupted from the opposite side, and then they cursed: "Shameless human race! You go back on your word; even a child wouldn't believe what you say!"

In the main hall of the base camp, the Jin King finally showed a little smile on his face and said: "Wei Yuan's military strategy is still a bit rough, and the Liao tribesmen are not really as stupid as pigs; how could they be deceived by his such straightforward words?"

The Jin King laughed, so everyone naturally had to accompany him with a smile, and some people in their hearts despised, are barbarians worthy of using military strategy?

Wei Yuan was also helpless at this time; he clearly had a heart of sincerity, so why couldn't he get the response he deserved?

At this time, the Ten Thousand Li Rivers and Mountains could not be manifested, there were no Heaven and Earth Madmen, no blessing of national fortune, the Beehive Flying Sword Launcher could not be used, and there was no Instant Crowd; Wei Yuan felt that he was unprecedentedly weak and really didn't want to fight this battle.

But the Liao tribesmen had already rushed up!

As the attacking Liao tribesmen lined up in neat military formations, they actually condensed into sky-piercing military aura!

In the main hall of the base camp, Prince Fu watched with his mouth open, and the others were expressionless, but shocked in their hearts. Looking at this military aura, even if the same number of light cavalry from the Northern Liao's large tribes were formed into an army, it would be nothing more than this. Most of these alien races were ordinary herdsmen; where did they get this kind of strength?

On the northwest edge of the hunting ground, the Liao tribesmen in the military camp had already changed into armor and mounted warhorses, with two horses per person and even a surplus. At this time, the Liao youth's expression moved, looking toward the east, and then said: "The military aura has risen, Thousand-man Commander Mengda has already launched, and it is time for us to go home!"

"Swear to follow the Great Khan to the death!"

An old-faced Liao tribesman said: "We failed to force out the Qianji Poison Pill, so we will block the pursuers here for the Great Khan. When the Great Khan returns here in the future, remember to avenge us!"

The youth beat his chest with his hand, nodded solemnly, then spurred his horse out of the camp and headed north.

!.

Dozens of cavalry galloped like lightning and disappeared into the north in the blink of an eye. More than a dozen riders were left behind, and one of them suddenly shouted: "I don't want to die! I also want to return to the north!"

He ignored the obstruction and spurred his horse north. But after running for several miles, just after leaving the hunting ground boundary, he suddenly fell off his horse.

The old Liao tribesman said: "Do you see? Escaping is also death; it's better to die heroically here and kill to your heart's content!"

The Liao tribesmen drew their blades to the sky and shouted in unison.

Wei Yuan looked at the fine, powerful crossbows in the hands of the hundreds of Liao tribesmen approaching, and cursed inwardly; it was fine that these teammates couldn't beat the Liao tribesmen, but they even sent their fine equipment.

The large group of Liao tribesmen slowly approached, shooting crossbows while advancing; as long as anyone in the position showed their head slightly, several crossbow arrows would whistle over immediately. The Liao tribesmen are good at shooting, and it is well-deserved.

However, the trenches dug in the position were more than half a person deep, and if you squatted against the wall inside, you couldn't be shot at all. The Liao tribesmen approached to within several dozen zhang and began to charge, and warriors wearing various colored armor crossed the crossbowmen and killed toward the position.

The knights in the first line of the position stood up instantly and raised their guns to shoot. Amidst the roaring sound, a row of gunpowder smoke appeared in front of the position, and a batch of charging Liao tribesmen suddenly fell.

The knights retracted their guns and loaded ammunition, their movements like flowing clouds and water, and then the roaring sound rose again, and another group of Liao tribesmen fell.

Compared to the Liao tribesmen who were generally Body Forging, the knights who were Dao Foundation cultivators were extremely fast, their movements simple and precise, raising their guns to shoot, their eyes and hands moving together. In the blink of an eye, it was a three-shot burst, cutting down the Liao tribesmen in the front row in swathes.
