The most powerful emperor grandson of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 153 Royal Cavalry
Li Xiang immediately had people ambush on both sides of the hillside. These cavalry marching at night should have come from the depths of Tuguhun, and they seemed to have a target, and their marching speed was not slow at night.

Others may not know whose army this army is, but the eldest princess knows it very well, because this army is the army of the Tuyuhun royal court tribe.

The eldest princess had lost contact with the royal court for two days, so Tuyuhun Khan sent his most elite cavalry to search northward along the eldest princess's hunting route.

Two days ago, this army got the last news about the eldest princess, so they didn't care about rest, and rushed to the tribe where the eldest princess lived day and night, hoping to get ahead of the Tang army and deliver the eldest princess quickly. Take it back.

Li Xiang looked at it in the darkness. It was about 500 meters long. Based on three cavalrymen per column, this cavalry had more than 2000 people, and it should be the most elite cavalry.

Tears have already flowed from the eyes of the eldest princess. These people are all the most elite warriors of Tuyuhun. Unfortunately, they are far behind Li Xiang's army. First of all, they cannot see the situation 35 miles away. Li Xiang People with elephants can know the situation of everyone around them.

The second is the weapon gap between the two sides. Li Xiang has already distributed serial crossbows to everyone, so when he attacks later, Li Xiang only needs to give an order, and thousands of his people can use the serial crossbow. The crossbow attacks these people. One person can fire ten sleeve arrows in a short time, and can penetrate all objects within 50 meters. There is no way for these people to survive.

What Li Xiang regrets now is these war horses. He also has many war horses that need to be replaced. If he can cut off these war horses intact, it will be a big expense for him. It is a pity that he does not have the time now. As these people get closer and closer, Li Xiang is already ready. Just waiting for him to be the first to launch an attack, the rest of the people will rush forward to deal with these Tuyuhun's most elite cavalry.

"Kill me."

Seeing everyone entering his ambush circle, Li Xiang gave the order and fired the serial crossbow in his hand first.

Ten meters in front of Li Xiang, a cavalryman looked around in shock. Unfortunately, he did not even utter a word, and was directly pierced by Li Xiang's serial crossbow. The soldiers around him also noticed that They were ambushed, but they didn't have any time to react. There were too many people around them, and the most important thing was that there were too many arrows shot at them.

Li Xiang is a person from modern society, so he naturally understands what a saturation attack is. Now Li Xiang has arranged 4000 people under his command here, and everyone is carrying a serial crossbow. In about 20 seconds, they can Shoot out all ten arrows, which means that there are more than [-] arrows shot out, and there are less than [-] people among them. You can imagine how these people will be beaten.

vomit…

One soldier was the first to be unable to bear it any longer. Although this was not his first time on the battlefield, the situation in front of him still made him want to vomit out the food he had eaten. In front of him was a Tuyuhun soldier with nine sleeve arrows all over his body. There are two faces on his face, so he might not be able to recognize his biological father even if he comes. It’s really scary.

"Look for usable war horses. Anyone who is not dead can go up and give me a stabbing blow. See if there is anything valuable on them. Take everything you can. If you really can't take away, let them stay here. Come on, we don't have enough lamp oil now, so we can't waste it on them. In short, we can't leave a single person alive, and our whereabouts can't be exposed." Li Xiang pulled out the arrowhead from the dead man's body and issued an order. The command, the serial crossbow is indeed good, but it consumes too many arrows.

Although one point can be exchanged for a hundred arrows, Li Xiang still doesn't want to develop the habit of wasting among his men. What's more, the arrows given by the system are of good quality and can be used three or four times without any problem. There is no need to waste them all here. Li Xiang would never let his men use it if it really couldn't be used, but if they could save a little, there was no need to let the troops develop a wasteful habit.

"what…"

Screams kept coming. Just now, some people were shot in the thigh, and then they fell to the ground and hid with the bodies of their horses. Unfortunately, they were discovered during the inspection. We have no mercy. The battlefield is so cruel. Either you die or I die. If I spare your life today, if I fall into your hands tomorrow, can you promise to spare my life?

The cloth on the eldest princess's mouth has been pulled out. If it is blocked for a long time, she may not be able to breathe smoothly. But at this moment, the eldest princess wants to shout, but unfortunately no sound can come out of her mouth. The scene just now made her unable to breathe. The eldest princess was deeply shocked.

These troops are the most elite troops in Tuyuhun, and they are the royal cavalry around her father. In the past, if Tuyuhun rebelled, the army around her father could equal ten to one, and could immediately wipe out other tribes, so There are many legends about this army on the grassland, but I didn't expect that such a powerful army could not last even half an hour in Li Xiang's hands.

The two thousand-man teams totaled 2000 people. In the time it took half a stick of incense, they were all killed by Li Xiang's men. However, Li Xiang did not leave much time for the eldest princess to grieve. Instead, he immediately killed the eldest princess. The princess pulled herself onto the four-wheeled carriage, and then drove away with the remaining people, leaving only two thousand corpses slowly cooling down.

If the eldest princess can be freed, she has only one idea now, which is to return to her father as quickly as possible, and then persuade her father to quickly conclude a peace agreement with Datang, because this army is really terrible, although There are only more than 6000 people, but they are definitely not something Tuyuhun can resist. Even Wang Ting's cavalry suffered such a result in front of them, let alone other armies.

Seven days later.

On a sunny morning, Li Xiang woke up from his sleep. He had traveled more than 100 miles last night and finally got rid of the pursuing cavalry.

Now his whole body feels like falling apart, but when he thinks of today's goal, Li Xiang immediately feels energetic. Today's goal is the Ronggong tribe, the third largest tribe in Tuyuhun...
