When the Xiongnu saw the woman being brought over, they burst into laughter.
"These women from the Great Xia Dynasty are all so beautiful."
"Come on, come on, quickly dance for the old man and sing him a song."
"If anyone dares to spoil our fun, I'll chop their head off with this scimitar."
Under the moonlight and the glow of the campfire, the scimitars in the hands of these Huns gleamed with a cold light.
These women of the Great Xia Dynasty were timid by nature; they had never seen such a scene before.
Many women were so frightened that they screamed.
Some people trembled with fear, their legs felt like lead, and they collapsed to the ground, unable to stand up again.
"Give the old man a smile."
"Hurry up and laugh! Your laugh is uglier than your cry." A young girl who couldn't laugh was cleaved in two by a Xiongnu soldier.
The other girls saw it and screamed in terror.
Hearing the girls' screams, the Xiongnu became even more brazen.
The country is weak.
The people live hand to mouth, and no one has the capacity to care about their lives.
Jiang Tian looked around.
These Xiongnu people had completely let their guard down.
In their eyes, the people of the Great Xia Dynasty, which they had plundered, were just a flock of lambs to the slaughter.
Lambs don't know how to resist.
Jiang Tian crept over quietly. There were only a few Xiongnu people at the stable, but they were all drunk.
Jiang Tian drew his bow, nocked an arrow, and adjusted the scope.
With a whoosh, an arrow pierced the night sky and struck a Xiongnu man in the head.
Before the Xiongnu could react, he fell to the ground with a thud.
When the other Xiongnu people saw this, they not only didn't have any questions, but they also burst into laughter.
"With such a low alcohol tolerance, you're still here guarding the stables. You should go back and sleep with your woman."
"It's fine for him to lie here and sleep."
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Several more arrows flew over.
The Huns guarding the stables were all shot down.
Jiang Tian sneaked in.
The stables were full of dry hay.
"Don't make a sound, I'm here to save you." Jiang Tian looked at the people whose bodies were bound hand and foot.
These people were all young and strong, but at this moment they were as docile as sheep.
Jiang Tian pulled out a sharp blade and cut all the ropes binding the men.
"On my command, act in unison." Before Jiang Tian could finish speaking, someone suddenly shouted, "Run!"
The men, who had been stunned, suddenly realized what was happening and started running away in all directions.
But these people were like headless flies, bumping around everywhere, they had no idea where to go.
Jiang Tian cursed loudly.
A unified action was agreed upon.
The Xiongnu were instantly awakened.
Many Xiongnu people rushed over.
"Don't let those treacherous dogs of Great Xia escape; shoot them all dead."
"You dare to run? I think you're tired of living."
The Xiongnu soldiers drew their bows and shot arrows at the fleeing people of the Great Xia.
Many more Xiongnu drew their scimitars and charged forward.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Jiang Tian quickly rushed into the horse pen.
He set the hay in the horse pen on fire.
Soon, a raging fire broke out.
The warhorse was startled.
The warhorses neighed loudly and frantically thrashed their reins.
Jiang Tian rushed over and used his sharp blade to cut all the reins binding the warhorses.
Then, he used a sharp blade to stab the horses' rumps several times.
These warhorses galloped even faster in a single bound.
The grasslands are naturally windy, and the stables were piled high with hay.
The straw burned brighter and brighter with the help of the wind.
The warhorses galloped quickly in all directions.
"The stable is on fire! Hurry and put it out!"
“These damned Xia people, kill them all.”
The Xiongnu soldiers all drew their bows and nocked arrows. Their archery skills were superb, and they shot arrows at the people who were desperately trying to flee in all directions.
Many civilians were unable to dodge in time and were hit by arrows and fell to the ground.
More and more warhorses charged out.
The Xiongnu people had no time to spare and rushed to chase after their warhorses.
Just then, Li Guang led 1,000 cavalrymen and charged over.
"My lord, do not panic, Li Guang is here to help you."
"Warriors, charge forward and slaughter all the Huns!"
Li Guang led the charge, and all the cavalry behind him swept forward like a surging wave.
These Xiongnu people were all completely drunk.
How could they possibly be a match for Li Guang and the 1,000 elite cavalrymen behind him?
When these Xiongnu people encountered Li Guang, they were either killed or wounded.
"Li Guang, don't let any Xiongnu escape." Jiang Tian jumped onto a warhorse, brandishing his spear, and fought alongside Li Guang and the others.
Qin Hongyu had also rushed in.
"Qin Hongyu, go protect those frightened women," Jiang Tian shouted at Qin Hongyu.
Qin Hongyu's eyes lit up.
"Rest assured, my lord, with me, Qin Hongyu, here, those Xiongnu people will not be able to harm a girl."
Li Guang's thousand cavalrymen swept towards the Xiongnu like a tidal wave.
The flames burning inside the stable grew stronger and stronger, threatening to spread like wildfire.
The flames burned rapidly, engulfing the Hun tents and hay.
The fodder that the Xiongnu had piled up elsewhere was also set on fire by Li Guang and his men.
