Along the map, Xu Mu did not relax at all. As he thought, the three thousand cavalry he brought with him were undoubtedly a lone army deep into the grassland.
In a land of alien races, if one person around you dies, one will be missing.
"Lance pointed!"
Not far away, Chang Wei led two thousand cavalry and killed a group of Di people who had gathered. After leaving hundreds of corpses, they continued to flee in a hurry.
"My little boss, more than a dozen riders died..."
Xu Mu's face was silent. After a while, he raised his head and looked at the night on the grassland. As far as the eye can see, there are swaying lanterns and the sound of horse hooves in all directions.
Needless to say, the Beidi people must have received the news and came to encircle and suppress their lone army.
Before they got too close, they heard shouts in the distance.
"Zhongyuan Dog, have you ever heard of the Gray Wolf Tribe?"
"According to Tengger's order, the Li'er tribe came to fight against the thieves!"
"Black Feather Tribe!"
…
The sounds came closer and closer. Countless lanterns illuminate the surrounding grasslands with bright patches.
"Get out of here." Xu Mu's voice was calm and expressionless. According to him, these tribes were originally lured here.
"General Xu has an order, I'll leave as soon as possible." The last two generals among the three thousand riders spoke in an angry voice.
Nearby, many Di youths and shepherd women took their horse bows and shot them at the nearly three thousand riders.
Xu Mu's eyes were cold.
The mighty cavalry knocked several shepherdess away and then ran forward wildly.
"General Xu, there are more and more pursuers behind us."
Riding on the horse, Xu Mu nodded solemnly. Although the Beidi people mobilized 300,000 troops on the Hezhou front, nearly half of the national strength, there were still many tribes that had not been recruited. Even if they were drafted, there would still be young men left behind.
"Run quickly."
Nearly three thousand people riding on horseback, hearing Xu Mu's words, stopped caring about the horses and reined them up again.
The sound of horse hooves became more and more rapid, and the Di people who were chasing after them let out curses all over the sky.
…
"General Xu, there is a small mountain ahead."
Xu Mu was not surprised. He looked at it for several days and found that the map in his hand was indeed very detailed.
He even knew that these hills on the grassland actually had a name, Langshan. As the name suggests, it is a hill where wolves roam.
"If there is a wound, apply it with grass juice."
After fighting one after another, nearly three thousand cavalrymen had countless wounds on their bodies. If there were other options, Xu Mu would not want to go to Langshan, but he had no choice. What he had to do was to lure more Di people in the grassland at once, and then find a way to get rid of them.
The remaining troops in front of them, even the youngest Wei Xiaowu, have turned into warrior-like beings.
When you see blood and gain courage, you should become a hero.
"General Xu, I've wiped it all off."
Xu Mu nodded, looked back, and found that Di Ren's cavalry was about to catch up.
"Mount!"
"General Xu has ordered, I will mount the horse."
"Wei Xiaowu, you fucking walk in the middle. Remember, I will protect you, my little one."
"I'm sixteen, and I'm a loser!" Wei Xiaowu retorted unwillingly, wiping his face covered in dust twice.
Xu Mu was also a little amused. The fight between life and death, the friendship between sword and blood, the people in their group had already become brothers.
"Mount!"
The sound of footsteps began to run steadily again.
…
"Goed to Langshan?"
Duhou, who was chasing him all the way from Hezhou, had a cold look on his face. Not only the 30,000 people he brought with him, but also those who gathered from all directions on the grassland, adding up to at least 60,000 to 70,000 people.
Sixty thousand or seventy thousand, chasing three thousand riders, as tired as a dog.
"Duhou, spring has just begun, and there may be wolves near Wolf Mountain."
"Bring an extra pot of horse arrows and hold the scimitar securely." Duhou said in a serious tone, "If these three thousand horses alarm the royal court on the other side of Wuhai, it will be a big sin for you and me!"
"Mount your horse and continue the pursuit!"
Duhou took the lead, his angry face becoming more and more ferocious. Throughout the ages, we have never heard of people from the Central Plains entering the grasslands.
"Hang the lantern! Kill the people from the Central Plains, use the skulls as cups, fill them with wine and drink together!"
Under the misty night.
Not long after, the continuous sound of horse hooves sounded.
Dawn is still far from breaking in the sky.
As we get closer to Wolf Mountain, deep beast roars can be heard from time to time in the bushes near the foot of the mountain.
"General Xu, there are wolves nearby."
Under the pale moonlight, Xu Mu looked up and found that the Wolf Mountain in front of him was full of gray wolves.
If it weren't for the lanterns, he would have rushed over immediately.
Wei Xiaowu, who was worried, had a pale face.
The Di horses on the crotch began to feel restless.
"Tighten the reins." Xu Mu said coldly.
Of course he knew the danger, but there was nothing he could do about it. However, if Langshan was to do so, he would not be able to escape the pursuers behind him.
"Is there any old horse?"
"General Xu, there are more than a dozen horses."
Xu Mu nodded, turned around and looked back. The dense light, like hundreds of long snakes, kept winding closer.
At first glance, there were at least tens of thousands of people.
"Stoke the horse!"
More than a dozen old horses had their bellies cut off at once. They screamed a few times and then fell to the ground in pain.
Instantly, the strong smell of blood rushed into his nose.
"Brother Mu, with such a bloody smell, those wolves must go crazy." Even Si Hu looked shocked.
"Indeed going crazy."
Xu Mu exhaled. If the wolves were not crazy, how could they help stop the pursuers behind them.
"The wolves are coming!"
"Get kerosene." Xu Mu gritted his teeth.
"General Xu has an order to get the fire oil quickly!"
It's a pity that there are no dense forests in the grassland. At most, there are some bushes, which are not burned much.
"Shoot them to death!" The Di people who were killed in the first wave roared, raised their horse bows, and shot flying arrows all over the sky.
"Raise your shield!"
The plundered Di human animal skin shield was obviously not very useful, and many of it was shot to pieces in a short time. The increasingly rich smell of blood spread crazily around the entire Wolf Mountain.
Chang Wei raised his bow and did not shoot at the Di people. Instead, he followed Xu Mu's instructions and shot a fire arrow, instantly starting a large fire where the oil flowed. The wolves that were about to charge towards them suddenly scratched their forelimbs and backed away slowly.
The corpses of more than a dozen old horses on the ground had been devoured by the wolves. The hungry wolf howled even more horribly toward the moon.
Across the fire, Xu Mu stared intently at the wolf pack that was gathering more and more, and the Di people who were chasing them, slaying them together.
Di Ma was frightened, and Di people roared in anger.
"Just watch, three thousand of my men will trample the Saibei grassland to pieces!"
"Surge into the royal court and capture you, the Heavenly Khan!"
Countless Di people roared, but they were blocked by the wolves. For a moment, they were unable to pursue them at all.
"Tenggri!" Duhou held the scimitar and turned pale with anger.
On the old horse that fell behind, a slightly stooped figure slowly raised his head and showed an imperceptible smile.
