Chapter 120 Prey
On the grassland, the sound of rumbling horseshoes continued.

Seven to eight hundred members of the caravan bodyguards were riding mules and horses, and they were galloping forward, while hundreds of black Turkic cavalrymen behind them were waving their machetes and pursing their lips.

For the black Turks who specialize in plundering, this hunt and kill of the Han seems like a happy safari to them.

What they like most is to drive their war horses to catch up with the enemy inch by inch, and watch the opponent cry, cry, beg, and after excruciating pain, slit the opponent's throat with a knife, enjoying the pleasure of blood splattering.

Or simply watch them exhausted from running, then spit blood from their mouths and noses, and fall dead on the road.
"The Chief Escort, a Turkic man, is in such a hurry to pursue him, what should we do?"

On the peak of the horseback, the wind howled, Lin Dangfeng asked Li Hu loudly with the wind in his mouth.

Li Hu's right shoulder was wrapped with a cloth belt, obviously injured, but he didn't panic at all.

Li Hu turned his head and saw the cavalry of Huaihuang town led by Wang Mahan and the cavalry of bodyguards, blocking the Turks from approaching with bows and arrows.

However, the black Turk's riding and shooting is obviously better, and it is chasing.

The two sides were on horseback, arrows exchanged, and the cavalry on Li Hu's side couldn't stop being hit by arrows, rolling off the horseback to the ground like a sack.

On the other side, Sun Erniang was shot in the waist by an arrow, and after being injured, she was suspended in the hanging net between the two horses, and her face became paler and paler as the horses jolted on their backs.

Li Hu looked around and saw the people of the caravan, driving the mules and horses under their crotches, like a frightened bird.

All of them were pale and bloodless, and the goods traded from Xi's department before had been thrown on the way because they were in the way to reduce the weight.

But even so, this group of murderous black Turks still didn't let them go.

Quite a few merchants were on the backs of their mules and horses, crying and crying, "If I knew this earlier, why bother to come to the grassland to die!"

Li Hu couldn't help being startled when he saw this, if the Turkic disturbance frightened the merchants, they would not dare to go out for trade from then on.Then there is no doubt that the Li Family Escort Bureau has no one to escort them out of Mobei, and the business will be cut off.

If the business is cut off, not only will the Li Family Escort Bureau be disbanded, but Huaihuang Town will have a hard time supporting it on the grassland without the support of this large amount of money.

Right now, Huaihuang Town is not self-sufficient in food, and food, ironware, and goods traded with grassland tribes are all sent from Yanmen to Huaihuang Town by merchant escorts.

If this road is cut off, it means that the lifeline is being choked.

Li Hu pointed his head forward and said: "There is a bush in front of us, we can go in and hide for a while."

Just as Li Hu was about to speak, suddenly the Turkic cavalry behind him slammed their hooves on the ground loudly.

Two teams of Turkic cavalry with nearly a hundred cavalrymen separated from the team, one left and one right, and began to outflank and intercept.

Seeing this, Li Hu secretly screamed that it was not good. Although he was in the pursuit of the battle, the rear of the team was Wang Mahan who brought a hundred and five cavalry from Huaihuang Town, as well as the Escort's own cavalry. Anyway, I was able to resist for a while.

However, the Turks outflanked Wang Mahan and the others and came to the front. Li Hu's left and right were merchants.

Although these merchants often travel to Mobei and carry bows and arrows, they are a mess after all, and their legs become weak when they see Turkic people.Being charged by the opponent will inevitably collapse the entire formation.

Li Hu had been running on the grassland for almost two days and two nights, and now he was exhausted, unable to compete with the Turks in terms of speed.

At that moment, Li Hu decided to say: "Everyone stop and line up on the spot!"

After finishing speaking, Li Hu picked up the horn and blew it.

Li Hu yelled from side to side, these businessmen were all taken aback when they heard this, but they still dismounted together according to Li Hu's opinion.

"Put the mules and horses outside, and everyone raises their bows, ready to meet the enemy!"

Li Hu shouted, with a sense of determination, he had encountered many dangers when he walked to Mobei, but he had never been so dangerous this time.

This group of black Turkic people don't deal with you at all, they only know how to kill with a knife. There are more than 500 people in the Escort caravan, and it is a terrible loss for them to fall under their knives.

The horses lined up in the original formation, guarding the people outside, and these horses were foaming at the mouth after running for a day, and their legs were shaking.

All the merchants also knew that this was a moment of life and death, and no one was complaining. They all raised their bows and listened to Li Hu's instructions silently.

Wang Mahan led the cavalry, and also dismounted and rushed to Li Hu's side.

Seeing Wang Mahan approaching, Li Hu immediately asked, "Is there any reinforcements in Huaihuang Town?"

Wang Mahan looked around and said in a low voice: "Tan Zong led a brigade of infantry to meet him ten miles ahead, it would be fine if he ran a little longer."

Hearing what Wang Mahan said, Li Hu also knew that there were no other reinforcements. The Cangtou Army had so many cavalry beside Wang Mahan. It is simply impossible to come up to meet them.

Wang Mahan said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, Chief Escort, even if I, Ma Han, risk my life, I will protect the Escort and break out of the encirclement."

Li Hu shook his head and said: "Don't say such things. If you can, you should take Erniang out. I, Li Hu, have no regrets about my death. My son has grown up and is famous all over the world. One day in the future, he will definitely It's just a pity to avenge me and kill all these people from the Azuibu...it's a pity that I didn't see my grandson."

Wang Mahan said in a deep voice: "Chief Escort, maybe the situation is not that critical. If we get rid of the caravan, we will have no problem breaking through."

Li Hu said seriously: "How can we do this?"

While waiting for Li Hu, Wang Mahan was speaking.I only heard that they were running again from a distance, a large group of cavalry.

Li Hu and Wang Mahan glanced at each other, their expressions changed. If they were infantry, they were definitely from Huaihuang Town.

The cavalry came, and all the cavalry in Huaihuang Town were here, so it was impossible for the cavalry to come to help.

Li Hufang sighed, but in a blink of an eye, when the black Turkic people saw this group of cavalry, they blew their horns. The cavalry who had surrounded Li Hu and the others all returned in all directions and formed a triangular formation.

The Turkic people in the distance blew horns a few times, and their horses also chased and ran for a day, and their horsepower was also exhausted, so they gathered together now, trying to regain some horsepower.

Li Hu and Wang Mahan were secretly amazed. How could these Turkic people look like they are facing a big enemy? Could it be that the people here are not their accomplices?
As for the newly arrived cavalry from the integration unit, there should be nearly a thousand of them, which is hard to see from a distance.

When they got close, it was a dense mass of darkness. They spared no expense in their horsepower, and they divided into three groups, encircling them from the left and right sides.

The formation of the Turks was in a commotion, and one of the Turkic leaders, wearing wolf fur, galloped up and shouted anxiously to the opposite side, as if he wanted to negotiate with Laiqi.

But among the group of cavalry, suddenly a sharp arrow was shot from two hundred paces away.

With a bang, the Turkic leader was pierced by an arrow, and his blood fell off his horse.

"Yes, little dart!"

Wang Mahan's eyes were sharp, not to mention anything else, only two hundred steps away, he could kill the enemy with a single arrow with a strong bow, there were only a few people on the grassland besides Li Chongjiu.

Nearly a thousand cavalrymen brought by Li Chongjiu whistled together, outflanked them from left and right, chased the Turks and began to attack!
"It's the cavalry from Shi Dexi's department." Wang Mahan laughed out loud.

The caravan and cavalry all showed high spirits.

"Happy! Happy!" Wang Mahan yelled, "Brothers, get on the horse with me and kill these sons of bitches."

The cavalry under Wang Mahan's command had been chased for a day, and they were all suffocated with anger. Hearing what the other party said, they mounted their horses together.

All the cavalrymen of the Cangtou Army got on their horses, drew their swords and raised their bows to kill the Turkic people, while the cavalrymen of the Shidexi tribe even covered up and killed them on all sides.

The leader of the black Turkic people was shot dead, all of them looked panicked, and the originally tight triangle formation also began to riot.

The Turks, who were originally hunters, became prey in the blink of an eye.

Xi Ren's horns sounded from all sides!
