Chapter 21 Settling into camp!
"Don't run!"
"Form ranks to meet the enemy!"
Looking at the Xiongnu camp now in complete chaos, with people scattering and fleeing in all directions.
Enraged, Tefrin drew his sword and killed several people.
Looking at the White Tiger cavalry sweeping in from not far away, and the leading cavalry general.
Without hesitation, Tefrin mounted the warhorse beside him, brandished his weapon, and rode against the current to meet the White Tiger!
For Tefrin, as long as he killed the leader of this cavalry unit, the rest of the cavalry would naturally be no threat.
"Hey! Enemy general, prepare to die!"
Ironflin, swimming against the current, stared intently at the charging White Tiger, gripped his weapon tightly, and charged forward.
However, ideals are often grand, but reality is often harsh!
"Ding! White Tiger's skill God of War effects one, two, and three activated, Strength +6, currently on the battlefield +2, currently leading cavalry in a charge, Strength +2, +2"
When the skill White Tiger • Dual Mastery is activated (first and third effects), Attack Power +6. When facing an enemy using a single weapon, as long as the opponent's base Attack Power is not higher than yours, your weapon's bonus is doubled, and Attack Power +3.
When the second, third, and fourth effects of the skill "Supervisor" are activated, the attack power increases by 5, and the attack power against alien races increases by 3. If the target Ironflin is detected to have the skill "Iron Wolf", the skill bonus is sealed.
Weapons: White Tiger World-Slaying Spear, White Tiger Battle Blade +4; Divine Steed: White Tiger King Steed +1; Current Attack Power increased to 144!
Bang!
Tefrin only felt a flash of light as a blade passed before him, and with a loud bang, Tefrin and his horse were sent flying.
At that moment, Tefrin felt dizzy and vaguely saw a headless corpse.
But why does his armor look so much like my own?
On the battlefield, the White Tiger who beheaded Ironflin with a single blow showed no emotion as he led his White Tiger cavalry to crush him.
Instantly defeating a newbie who's just reached the God of War level—isn't that normal?
What's there to care about?
Swish!
The White Tiger cavalry, charging from the vanguard all the way to the center, sped past the great banner of the Xiongnu camp, and the banner fell to the ground.
As the central banner fell, the rout of the Xiongnu camp became even more devastating, and the rear guard watched as the fleeing soldiers in front frantically attacked from behind.
Naturally, as the routed soldiers began to retreat, and with the fall of the great banner, the originally orderly retreat began to show signs of collapse.
As the central army of the Xiongnu army collapsed, Baihu, who was rampaging through the camp with his White Tiger cavalry, also saw the largest and most luxurious tent in the center.
And then there was the large group of Xiongnu chieftains who scattered and fled under the cover of their guards.
"Come with me!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Baihu's goal had changed from simply scattering the Xiongnu camp to directly beheading all the Xiongnu leaders on the other side!
Bang!
The White Tiger cavalry swept past like a whirlwind, beheading one of the Xiongnu Chanyu, who was heavily guarded.
At this moment, the White Tiger cavalry had driven the defeated Xiongnu army close to the original rear army.
However, the rear guard at this time was already different from the beginning.
Following the White Tiger's gaze, one could see that the rear guard, which should have been in complete disarray, had now been regrouped, arrayed, and ready for battle.
It seems that not all of these grassland people are useless.
At least when attacked, they can react quickly and regroup their lines immediately.
"withdraw!"
Looking at the figure standing in front of the army formation in the distance, Baihu narrowed his eyes and then gave the order.
If Baihu were alone, he would be interested in meeting this Xiongnu commander, but at this moment, Baihu's war cavalry was following behind him.
Don't be fooled by the fact that these few thousand White Tiger cavalrymen move freely through this massive Xiongnu camp of over 100,000 people.
However, the White Tiger cavalry launched a night raid on the camp, catching the Xiongnu camp completely off guard. After all, they had been on the offensive for the past ten days or so, and who would have thought that their camp would be suddenly overrun?
Secondly, Teeflin, the only one in the vanguard who could command and had the ability to do so, was instantly killed by Mirana at the start of the game.
This resulted in the White Tiger Cavalry encountering almost no significant resistance at the front, heading straight for the central army at top speed.
Now, the capable Xiongnu leaders naturally started running for their lives.
Otherwise, given the White Tiger Cavalry's charging speed, they would be heading straight to the Eternal Heaven if they didn't run!
Therefore, all these factors combined led to the White Tiger Cavalry's great success this time.
Even several Xiongnu Chanyu were beheaded.
But it's absolutely impossible for three thousand White Tiger cavalry to actually face a charge of tens of thousands who have already formed ranks.
So, looking at the Hun army that had already lined up in formation ahead.
Baihu knew that this camp visit was now over.
Choosing a direction at random, Baihu led his White Tiger warhorse, stepping over the flames and corpses that filled the Xiongnu camp, and charged out of the camp, galloping away!
Along the way, they also killed two Xiongnu Chanyu who were retreating in this direction!
All that remained of the Xiongnu camp was desolation, with only ruined city walls and charred trees.
The air was thick with the stench of blood, mixed with the smell of gunpowder and dust.
Broken arrows and shattered shields lay scattered on the ground, telling the story of the fierce battle that had just taken place.
...
Taiping Pass.
That night, the moonlight was bright and clear, shining on the empty city walls, giving them a silvery glow.
The soldiers guarding the city on the Taiping Pass tower stared anxiously at the outside of the city, their hearts pounding in their throats.
Suddenly, the heavy sound of horses' hooves came from afar, growing closer and clearer.
The soldiers gripped their weapons tightly, beads of sweat forming on their foreheads.
"Please open the city gates immediately. We are the Nine Heavens Army from Yunzhou, here to provide support."
The cavalrymen standing below the city wall at this moment were naturally the White Tiger War Cavalry, who had just returned from their campaign.
After breaking out of the Xiongnu camp, Baihu led them directly to the foot of the city wall of Taiping Pass.
coax!
Upon hearing the words of the cavalry below, chaos erupted on the city wall.
"Are you truly members of the Nine Heavens Army?"
"Why didn't they come from behind Taiping Pass, but instead from the direction of the Xiongnu camp!"
After a while, the city wall suddenly fell silent. A young general poked his head out from the wall and asked.
"Haha, isn't that obvious?"
"The Nine Heavens Army cavalry returns from their camp!"
The deputy general of the White Tiger under the city wall looked at his general's silent appearance, shook his head and smiled, pointed to the Xiongnu camp in the distance with flames all around, and said with great pride.
"Did you do that?"
"Please wait a moment while we verify the authenticity of your identities."
The flames of the distant Xiongnu camp had spread across half the sky, and the garrison at Taiping Pass was certainly not blind.
Hearing that the commotion in the Xiongnu camp was caused by this cavalry, the young general on the city wall softened his tone slightly, even though his identity was not yet confirmed.
"He is my subordinate. I wonder if General Mu is satisfied with Jin Yu's gift?"
Just as the young general on the city wall was about to confirm the identity of the White Tiger War Rider, a handsome young man led a bald monk onto the city wall and smiled at the young general.
"Is this... this cavalry force really His Highness the Crown Prince's army?"
"What gift did His Highness mention?"
The boy who walked onto the city wall was none other than Su Ye, when he saw Bai Hu leading that white torrent into the Xiongnu camp.
Su Ye and Yao Guangxiao naturally wouldn't stay on that hillside and let the cold wind blow on them.
Although the hem of her dress fluttered gracefully, giving her a somewhat aloof and independent air.
But I have to say, the wind was really strong!
It's really cold!
Moreover, they also need to inform Taipingguan in advance.
In case something goes wrong at Baihu Camp, Taiping Pass will be the last line of defense!
Otherwise, if the White Tiger runs this way and is locked out by the Taiping Pass guards who don't recognize him, that would be incredibly embarrassing.
