Chapter 427: Surprise Attack on the Huns, Killing the King of the Southern Courtyard Instantly

The day after Gu Rubing left Xudu City, Dian Wei led the 4,000 tiger and leopard cavalry who had just been transferred to complete their duties. They went straight out from the west gate of Xudu City, bypassed Liangzhou, and headed towards the Xiongnu in the north from the west of Liangzhou. Rushing over, Dian Wei and Hu Baoqi were like sharp black arrows, blending into the vast night. Not even the other undercover agents deployed by Gu Rubing in Xudu could detect their movements.

After Dian Wei set out, Cao Zhang led 20,000 cavalrymen on the journey that Dian Wei had walked, and closely followed Dian Wei to the north. As a reserve army for Dian Wei and Hubaoqi, once Dianwei and Hubaoqi left, If the problem is solved, then the 20,000 cavalrymen will be their life-saving straw.

Apart from Dian Wei, Hubaoqi and Cao Zhang, the only people who knew where Dian Wei was going were Cao Cao, Xun Yu and Xu Chu. Even the 20,000 cavalry who followed Cao Zhang didn't know their actual purpose. Only they arrived at the place. Their destination will be discovered only when the time comes. At that time, even if there is a traitor within them, they will have no chance to pass on the information they know.

If all this can be leaked, it can only be that there is something wrong with the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. If that is the case, then Cao Cao may not have anyone available under his command. There are undercover agents in his own barracks. This can only mean that Cao Cao's army has It sucks.

Cao Cao was at the gate of the city, watching Dian Wei go away, and finally disappearing into the night. He was full of worry. Before Dian Wei came back, if Gu Rubing launched an attack on Xu Du, Xu Du would probably not be able to stop him. Force can only face the result of destruction.

"Dian Wei, it's up to you."

Cao Cao folded his sleeves with his hands. It was already late autumn. Cao Cao was dressed in fine clothes, but he still felt a bit cold in this late autumn night. He had to fold his sleeves with his hands to keep warm. Xun Yu and Xu Chu also stood aside, silently. They all knew that Cao Cao felt the pressure from Guan Yu.

Guan Yu is like a big knife on their necks. Whether it falls or not depends only on the other person's intention. This kind of people are the knife and I are the fish, which is really uncomfortable.

"Lord, don't worry, General Dian Wei will definitely return home successfully."

Xun Yu opened his mouth to relieve the gloom in Cao Cao's heart. Cao Cao nodded slightly and led the two of them towards the city.

"Zhongkang, during this period, Xu Ducheng is relying on you."

Xu Chu, who was following Cao Cao, patted his chest.

"Don't worry, lord. As long as I live, even if I can live for even one day, I will guard this capital for one day and protect the lord for one day."

Cao Cao suddenly stopped, turned to look at Xu Chu, smiled and patted Xu Chu's shoulder.

"Last time you killed Xu You, I was actually very happy. I punished you with a ban on drinking, just to temper you. No need to do that now, go to my house, I have good wine!"

Cao Cao laughed and left. Xu Chu scratched his head and laughed. Xun Yu had already told him about this matter. He naturally understood Cao Cao's good intentions. However, there is no reason not to drink wine. So he quickly followed. Xun Yu, who was at the end of the team, also smiled, shook his head, and followed.

Five days later, a cavalry force of 4,000 people suddenly appeared outside the Liangzhou Pass and headed towards the Xiongnu territory outside the pass, moving forward inexorably.

The long-term internal strife of the Xiongnu and the long-term fighting between various tribes led to the decline of the Xiongnu. Ma Chao of Liangzhou expelled the nearby Xiongnu and pushed these Xiongnu back to their own territory. They did not dare to invade. .

There are currently five larger tribes in the Xiongnu, divided into five major tribes: southeast, northwest, and middle. The five unfailing Chanyus have all established themselves as kings. Among them, the tribe of the Zuoxian King Chanyu is the most powerful, with ten people under his command. Among the 50,000 grassland cavalry, King Beixian is the weakest among the other four. The other three kings are almost the same. Dian Wei's goal is these five tribes.

Since the Central Plains does not have so many first-class generals to kill, and there are not so many battles to fight, if he wants to improve himself quickly, the Huns are obviously Dian Wei's best choice.

In addition to the Xiongnu, there are two other rampant foreign forces in the north that often invade the border.

One is Wuhuan in the north of Bingzhou, and the other is Xianbei further north and bordering Youzhou. Xianbei is the most powerful of these three foreign forces. Its territory is so vast that it is larger than the five Xiongnu tribes combined. , the army was more powerful, but the only place directly bordering the Han Dynasty was Youzhou. In addition, there were constant wars with the Xiongnu and Wuhuan, and the Xianbei Chanyu tribe was too far away from the Han Dynasty for various reasons. This made the most powerful The powerful Xianbei has become the most honest-looking foreign race.

After entering the Xiongnu territory, Dian Wei and the Hubao Cavalry no longer concealed their whereabouts. The four thousand riders advanced towards the area of ​​King Nanxian like a black tide. They passed two small tribes of King Nanxian on the way. Although the size of the tribe was okay, there were no generals guarding it, only a few hundred soldiers. Dian Wei had no interest in them. He just galloped past their tribe and continued towards the court of King Nanxian in the north. go ahead.

Soon, the Huns cavalry dragging up the grassland discovered the tiger and leopard cavalry like a black tide. Their first reaction was that soldiers from other royal courts were invading, but they quickly realized that there was no way they could come from Coming from the south, those coming from the south can only be from the Han Dynasty!

This is a cavalry force of 10,000 people. It can be said that it is one of the few powerful armies of the Nanxian Royal Court. The Nanxian Royal Court only has a total of 30,000 troops. This is almost one-third of their number. Leading this army The cavalryman is the Nanyuan King of the Nanxian Royal Court. He is also the strongest person in the Nanxian Royal Court and a first-rate general.

King Nanyuan looked at the cavalry of 1,000 men approaching him, playing with a necklace made of white bones in his hand, turning it non-stop.

"My fellows, some Han people are running wild in our Nanxian Wangting's territory. Let's go and meet them!"

King Nanyuan turned his horse's head, took a mace from the hand of someone beside him, and rode his horse to meet Dian Wei.

"Charge! Whoever can kill more than three people will be promoted one level!"

Dian Wei and his men naturally discovered the cavalry of 10,000 men in front of them, and at this moment they had begun to ride their horses quickly and charged at the speed of charging.

After rushing to the front, King Nanyuan suddenly realized that the team he met this time seemed different from the previous ones. He had never encountered such a team with heavy black armor before. Before King Nanyuan could react, the team had already rushed in front of them like a sharp arrow.

"Kill!"

Dian Wei was not good at cavalry warfare. After arriving nearby, Dian Wei jumped off his horse directly, holding his halberd and rushed towards the cavalry of 10,000 men.

Seeing that the opponent actually abandoned his horse and started to run wildly, the King of Nanyuan was full of surprise. During the confrontation between the cavalry armies, he dared to jump off the horse directly and fight the cavalry on foot. This situation was unprecedented for him, but his surprise soon turned into disdain.

"Hehe, it turns out that it is not Ma Chao's cavalry. I was wondering where this idiot came from. He actually attacked like this. I thought it would be an interesting opponent, but I didn't expect it to be this kind of person."

The King of Nanyuan carried his mace and stared at Dian Wei. He swung the mace and prepared to smash the opponent's head with the mace to let this ignorant young man know the power of the grassland cavalry.

Dian Wei also stared at the King of Nanyuan. Dian Wei came to the north for the purpose of slaughtering the first-class generals of the Xiongnu. According to the information obtained by Cao Cao, there were no famous generals in the entire Xiongnu, and the highest was only a first-class general. Unless all the first-class generals of the five major royal courts of the Xiongnu were killed, Dian Wei might be promoted to a legendary general.

The purpose of this trip is only one, that is to let Dian Wei smoothly upgrade the rank of general. If he still has not been promoted to a legendary general after killing all the first-class generals of the Xiongnu, then Dian Wei will go east and continue to attack Wuhuan until Dian Wei is promoted to a legendary general. Before that, no matter what happens, unless Dian Wei dies, the team will go all the way north and will never retreat.

Thinking of this, Dian Wei took a deep breath, and his whole body was glowing red, which was a symbol of his characteristics of endless anger and ancient evil starting at the same time. At the same time, Dian Wei jumped high, keeping a height parallel to the King of Nanyuan, and chopped out the first halberd of the three deadly halberds. The blood-red light of the knife seemed to penetrate the sky and the earth. As Dian Wei smashed the halberd hard, the blood-red aura also flew forward.

The pupils of the King of Nanyuan suddenly dilated, and a halberd blade with huge aura appeared in front of him. The pupils of the King of Nanyuan shrank from large to small again. In extreme shock, he raised his mace and swung it forward, trying to block this terrifying blow, but the next moment, he flew out like a kite with a broken string, and then smashed hard on a group of cavalrymen.

The cavalrymen who were charging behind him had no time to stop, and countless horse hooves trampled over him. It only took a few breaths for the King of Nanyuan to faint because of Dian Wei's blow. He fell to the ground and was awakened by the piercing pain, but the next moment, a pair of horse hooves stepped directly on his face. Before he could scream, another pair came from behind, one pair after another, and he and the cavalrymen and horses who were smashed on the ground were soon trampled into meat paste.

Dian Wei, who was glowing red, rushed towards the enemy's army of 10,000 without any pause after he swung his halberd. The soldiers in the front saw that their usually invincible general was killed by a halberd, and they immediately fell into panic. The cavalrymen in the front wanted to turn back, but they were pushed forward by the cavalrymen behind them.

The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry all held fine iron spears and waved them in the enemy's army of 10,000, constantly killing the Xiongnu soldiers. In addition, there was Dian Wei, the killing god who had already opened up endless anger and ancient evil. The enemy's 10,000 cavalrymen were like chickens and pottery dogs in front of them. They were constantly killed by the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry at a speed of crushing withering and rotten wood. The Xiongnu cavalrymen didn't even have the opportunity to cause damage to the other side, and were scratched across the neck or pierced through the heart by the opponent's wielding spears.

The corpses and pieces of flesh flew up in the air like willow catkins, and then fell down again. In just a quarter of an hour, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry had slaughtered 10,000 Xiongnu cavalrymen, leaving only 3,000 of them, and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry's losses were even less than 100 cavalrymen.

In this world, the Xiongnu were just like NPCs. In addition to their original attack power, they only enjoyed the characteristic bonuses from the King of Nanyuan and the King of Nanxian. These bonuses were almost the same as zero in front of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. In addition, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry was a special type of soldier, and had the basic attributes of a third-rate general. It can be said that it would be no problem for each rider to kill dozens of the opponent's riders alone.

It was the same as when Sun Ce led his troops to massacre the southeastern foreign races and the invading Japanese pirates. The characteristic bonuses of these NPCs were really a bit small. Even the weakest Shi Xie now had much higher characteristic bonuses than these NPCs.

So when the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry met these Xiongnu cavalrymen, it was like the regular army meeting civilians who had no combat power at all. The gap between the two was almost the same.

The remaining 3,000 cavalry still wanted to escape, but they were killed by Dian Wei, who was at the end and blocked their escape with a halberd. Dian Wei's characteristic skill of Gu Zhi Elai had ended at this moment. After the attribute added by the characteristic dissipated, Dian Wei fell into a weak state.

Gu Zhi Elai's skill has now been upgraded to level 3. The weak state now only lasts for five minutes, reducing all attributes by 20%. Five minutes is enough for the Xiongnu cavalry to escape several miles. Therefore, although Dian Wei is in a weak state, he still stands on the opponent's must-pass road, blocking the opponent's escape with his own strength.

Although there is a 20% weakening, it makes no difference to Dian Wei to deal with these Xiongnu cavalry. The Xiongnu cavalry came to Dian Wei like a tide hitting the shore. Dian Wei looked calm, holding a halberd and actively rushed to kill the 3,000 cavalry without any fear.

Facing the fight between Dian Wei and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, only a few hundred of their three thousand men finally escaped from this Shura field and rushed towards the north without looking back.

Dian Wei sat on the horse led by the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry again and continued to move towards the north. There were bloodstains on Dian Wei's armor, and even the mask of his helmet was covered with blood. Dian Wei reached out and took off the helmet, threw the blood-stained helmet on the ground, and looked into the distance.

"Rest where you are."

Dian Wei's voice was hoarse, and he continued to look into the distance while riding on the horse, and then looked back at the deputy general of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry behind him.

"Wait here for Master Cao Zhang to arrive. Before he arrives, you will be in charge of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. When Master Cao Zhang arrives, you will be in charge of the command."

"Yes, General."

The deputy general clasped his fists and accepted the order. Dian Wei rode his horse in the direction where the hundreds of cavalry left. If these hundreds of cavalry escaped successfully and returned to the court of King Nanxian, King Nanxian would probably react. Although their combat readiness and preparation were no different, only by minimizing the casualties of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, this trip to the Xiongnu could ensure that Dian Wei could be promoted to a legendary general with a greater probability.

This thousand-mile surprise attack will make the battles more difficult to fight in the future. Now, every time a Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is missing, the future battles will be more difficult. This time, they have no reinforcements and can only rely on themselves.
