Chapter 79 Horse thief or official army?

Chapter 79 Horse thief or official army?

Starting from Guzang City and crossing the entire Zhangye County, the [-] army led by Mengcheng encountered no resistance.Such a state made Meng Chen think that he was being tricked by his opponent.

But under the investigation of Ye Bushou and a large number of scouts, Meng Chen was convinced that his army was safe.

"My lord, this gang of horse thieves has united, and it seems that they have no intention of surrendering." Chen Yaojin muttered boredly.
"Horse thief? I don't think so!" Meng Chen squinted his eyes and replied.

Judging from the information received so far, this group of horse thieves is the army sent by Wusun Kingdom.

Fearing revenge from the Xiongnu or the Han army, he did everything possible to pretend to be a horse thief.

As for the strength of Wusun Kingdom, it is regarded as powerful among the countries in the Western Regions, but in Meng Chen's view, it is not worth mentioning at all.

The army entered the territory of Jiuquan County, and what appeared before them was indeed the vast Gobi. At a glance, it was desolate, except for the yellow sand and dry grass. It stretched for hundreds of miles and was uninhabited.

In Lufu County, a cavalry team galloped all the time. This group of cavalry wore felt hats, Hu clothes, sabers on their waists, a longbow slung across their shoulders, and sparse feathered arrows poking out from behind their shoulders.

Looking from a distance, the yellow sand billowed behind the cavalryman, and the sharp blade of the saber on his waist showed a cold light under the slanting shot from the west.

And this group of cavalry in Hu suits was guarding a carriage. In the carriage sat a tall Hu man with a long beard and a hooked nose, with a trace of majesty on his face.

This person is none other than Tie Shami, the general under the command of King Wusun of the Western Regions!

At present, the strength of the Wusun Kingdom can be said to dominate the Western Regions. During the years of the Huns' decline, they gradually controlled more than half of the Western Regions.

And Wusun Kingdom is not without rivals. In the past two years, it has fought several battles with Qiucha Kingdom.

The King of Kucha has always been in awe of the powerful Han Dynasty. A few months ago, the Wusun Kingdom attacked a Han caravan in Kucha, and the two sides fought violently.

Originally, Tie Shami planned to command troops to attack the Kucha Kingdom, but he didn't want to get the great Han Xiliang Inspector and General Meng Chen to lead the Western Expedition before dispatching troops.

Since Dunhuang and Jiuquan were not defended by the Han army, Wusun Kingdom regarded this place as its own territory.But in order to deceive others, he disguised his army as horse thieves.

Meng Chen raised his troops to attack, Wusun Kingdom did not intend to sit still and wait for death.

It is an indisputable fact that the big man is weak, so Tie Shami led an army of [-] to head straight for Lufu County.

"Wusun is powerful enough to shake more than fifty countries in the Western Regions. How dare a mere weak general raise troops? It's because he doesn't know how to live or die!" Tie Shami in the carriage snorted coldly.

In the eyes of Tie Shami, the governor of Xiliang and the general who conquered the west are not worthy of mobilizing his troops.

"Woo!" There was a low sound of the horn, and Tie Shami frowned. The sound of the horn was a warning.

However, the sound of the horn had not yet fallen, and an arrow, mixed with the sound of piercing the air, accurately hit the throat of the Wusun cavalry who had sounded the warning.

A gurgling sound came from the Wusun cavalryman's throat, and then he fell off his horse.

Boom!Boom!
The thunderous sound of horseshoes sounded, and the cavalrymen of Wusun Kingdom came back to their senses.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" A general yelled immediately after seeing clearly.

Tie Shami got up and got out of the carriage. He never expected to meet Qiucha's ambushes here.However, it seems that the handsome flag of the cavalry...

"Han army?" Someone called out, making Tie Shami wake up instantly.

Looking at the group of Wusun cavalry in front of him, Meng Chen snorted coldly in his heart.

It's fine to pretend to be a horse thief, and dare to march in the territory of the big man swaggeringly.

It will not kill you at this time, when will it be more!

Half a month ago, Meng Chen pretended to be a Han Chinese caravan and launched a surprise attack on Lufu County, annihilating the horse thieves here in one fell swoop.

After interrogation, Meng Chen had a general understanding of the situation in the Western Regions.

Meng Chen, who was charging at high speed, had a stern face, and his eyes were fixed on the enemy standing on the carriage, like a hunter staring at his prey!
A wave of killing intent struck, Tie Shami's face changed drastically, he jumped out of the carriage, and quickly climbed onto a tall horse.

While pulling out the scimitar around his waist, he shouted: "Arrange to meet the enemy!"

After the general order was issued, Wusun Qi gradually calmed down, and quickly lined up under Tie Shami's order.

"Woo! Woo!" The Wusun cavalry who had completed their formation made a strange noise.

"Damn, what bird language!" Meng Chen cursed angrily.

The shouting stopped, and the Wusun cavalry began to charge with shining sabers in their hands.

Tie Shami, who was the leader, stared at Meng Chen with both eyes, and the eyes of the two had already sparked in the air!

With the rumble of horseshoes, billows of smoke and dust rose from the dry and hard land in Jiuquan County.

And in the smoke and dust flying all over the sky, countless figures of cavalry were looming, and the two torrents were moving towards each other, without any intention of avoiding them.

With a distance of several hundred steps, the cavalry charge arrived instantly. Meng Chen raised the Overlord's Halberd high, and the Huns cavalry after getting up began to bend their bows and set arrows.

As Fang Tian's painted halberd fell, a rain of arrows whizzed out, and Tie Shami was shocked. Just as he bent his bow and set up an arrow, the opponent's arrow rain had already been shot. Are these really Han cavalry?
With the howling sound sandwiched between the arrows, they plunged into the formation of the Wusun cavalry, screaming one after another!
However, this was not over yet, the second and third waves of arrow rain arrived as scheduled.

As the saying goes, one move is slow, one move is slow, at this time Tie Shami finally saw the Han army's attire clearly.

"Huns!" Tie Shami exclaimed, and then continued to say: "Shoot the arrows! Quickly shoot the arrows!"

It's a pity that the Wusun cavalry had not had time to shoot arrows in the future, and the Han army's arrow rain hit again.

Two sharp arrows whizzed towards Tie Shami with harsh sounds, and the feathers drew blurry trajectories in the air, rushing towards Tie Shami's body.

"Ding! Dang!" There were two metal clashes, and Tie Shami grinned.

But the cavalry behind him were not so lucky.

There were screams one after another, and the arrows fired back were sparse, which had no effect on the Han army at all.

"Kill!" Meng Chen yelled and rushed forward first.

Tie Shami also let out a loud shout, the veins on his right arm were bulging, and the scimitar in his hand quickly slashed at the general of the Han army.

With a flash of cold light, the blood Tie Shami expected was not spurted out, but his right arm was numb from the shock.

Immediately afterwards, a strong wind hit, and before Tie Shami could swing his knife to block, the Overlord Halberd in Meng Chen's hand had already pierced Tie Shami's chest.

"I thought I was a good player, but I'm so impatient." Meng Chen muttered.

But Shou exerted force with both hands, and threw Tie Shami's body into the air, and the Overlord Halberd turned around again, and Tie Shami's head was suddenly in a different place.

"The general is mighty! The general is mighty!"

The Huns shouted loudly that warriors like Mengchen were their idols.

The Wusun cavalry was stunned. Tie Shami was one of the best warriors in Wusun, but in the hands of the generals of the Han army, he couldn't even survive a single round.

At this moment, Wusun's cavalry finally realized the strength of the Han army, and their morale began to decline gradually.
