Hu Chuquan was terrified when he saw the rain of arrows coming from the opposite side.

When did the Han army develop such advanced horseback archery skills?

Generally, within a hundred paces, they would simply accelerate their charge to rush into the enemy ranks and hack and slash as quickly as possible.

No cavalryman had ever dared to shoot arrows at such close range.

The Xiongnu, known as a people on horseback, were highly skilled in archery and horsemanship, yet they dared not be so arrogant.

Moreover, with the two sides clashing like this, the confrontation will only last for a few breaths.

Even if you shoot an arrow and are about to shoot a second one, the enemy is already right in front of you.

Their weapons are already aimed at your head, neck, and chest.

And the arrows you shoot may not even hit their mark.

However, the facts were clear: the Han cavalry blocking their way were not only charging, but after firing one volley of arrows, they were able to fire a second volley.

No, there's a third wave!

Huchuquan and his Xiongnu cavalry were dumbfounded!

After three volleys of arrows, at least a thousand Xiongnu cavalrymen fell from their horses.

These fallen cavalrymen, along with their ownerless warhorses, became obstacles for the charging cavalry behind them!

People trip each other, horses block each other!

The originally sharp and powerful charging formation was thrown into chaos by this disruption.

At this moment, the two sides were only thirty paces apart, and the knight in the front row could even see the pimples on the other's face clearly.

"Swish! Swish! Swish!"

Just then, the three thousand Han cavalrymen immediately put away their crossbows and stood up on their horses.

The spear in his hand flew up like a javelin.

Three thousand spears, propelled by the momentum of the charging warhorses, flew out one after another.

Ahhh!

Screams filled the air as hundreds of Xiongnu cavalrymen were struck by the flying spears and fell in droves.

Some of the spears even sent one knight flying and then knocked another knight flying behind them.

With just one wave of javelin-like attacks, more than a thousand Xiongnu cavalrymen were killed.

Hu Chuquan and Xu Buxian were terrified when they saw this scene.

They never expected that Han cavalry would have such tactics.

What surprised them even more was how Han cavalrymen could stand up on their horses.

You should know that their Hunnic cavalry had to squeeze their horses' bellies to stand up.

However, it is absolutely impossible to make a powerful throwing motion on horseback and cause great damage to the enemy.

But the Han cavalry did it, which left them completely baffled.

Hu Chuquan and Xu Buxian were naturally puzzled.

Because among Liu Wei's troops, these four thousand cavalrymen were all equipped with saddles and stirrups.

This allows the knight to move as if on flat ground while on horseback, and to stand up and throw a lance with ease.

First came three waves of arrows at medium range, followed by short-range spear attacks.

Before even engaging the Han army in close combat, the eight thousand Xiongnu cavalry had already lost more than two thousand men, more than a quarter of their force was wiped out!

At this moment, the two sides' forces have clashed.

In the blink of an eye, Xue Rengui, dressed in white robes, had already reached the forefront of the storm.

The halberd in his hand transformed into a dragon, constantly tumbling among the vast Xiongnu cavalry.

Wherever it went, heads flew off, limbs were severed, and blood gushed out.

First they were ambushed in the middle, then they were ravaged by arrows and spears, and the morale of the Xiongnu cavalry plummeted.

Coupled with Xue Rengui's overwhelming aura of being able to fight against ten thousand men alone, countless Xiongnu cavalrymen were terrified.

The commanders of a thousand and a hundred cavalrymen bravely went to intercept them, but were easily cut down by Xue Rengui.

Close combat.

Three thousand Han soldiers, full of morale, clashed with six thousand demoralized Xiongnu cavalry.

The Han cavalrymen swung their hand axes incessantly, as if chopping melons and vegetables.

The Hunnic cavalrymen, clad in leather armor, screamed in agony as their skin tore open.

The Han cavalry, now fully equipped with blue-quality gear, were completely impervious to the Xiongnu's knives thanks to their sturdy armor.

The Xiongnu cavalry could only blindly hack at the enemy from horseback, not knowing where to begin.

Although they outnumbered the enemy, they were no match for those who were modeled after the White Robe Army, had a 10% combat power boost from Xue Rengui, and were far superior in equipment.

It's like a sharp knife slicing through tender flesh, or like a burly man invading a young girl.

Countless Xiongnu cavalrymen died tragically on their horses.

The battlefield has become one-sided!

Xue Rengui fought while observing, and had already penetrated deep into the heart of the Xiongnu cavalry.

He had already spotted Hu Chuquan and Xu Buxian, who were cowering in the crowd, looking panicked and pale.

With a sweep of his halberd, the Xiongnu cavalry blocking his path fell like wheat being harvested.

He spurred his warhorse, and the Snow Dragon Steed neighed angrily, leaping high into the air and charging towards Huchuquan and Xubuxian.

A dozen or so burly guards followed closely behind, providing tight protection for Xue Rengui's left and right flanks, helping him to kill generals and capture chieftains.

Xue Rengui was menacing and aggressive, and no one dared to challenge him.

The guards around Hu Chuquan all ran away, leaving the main gate wide open. Hu Chuquan and Xu Buxian felt like naked girls, completely unsafe.

They had no choice but to tightly guard their last sensitive territory.

But this was of no use; Xue Rengui's halberd had already arrived, its target aimed directly at Huchuquan.

"Take this!"

Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, Hu Chuquan quickly grabbed Xu Buxian next to him to block the halberd.

Xu Bu never expected that he, who had stood by Hu Chuquan when he was defeated, would be used by Hu Chuquan as a shield in his time of crisis.
