Flying Clouds in Another World

Chapter 299 I am Chen Ren, believe it or not

Liu Feiyun looked at the tens of thousands of troops and eight thousand soldiers at the foot of the hill. Although they seemed to be in high spirits on the surface, with the momentum of "with a large army in hand, I am invincible".

However, he knew very well in his heart that this so-called army was just a facade!

The actual military personnel, including the original troops of Yunliu Camp and those selected from the rescued slaves, who once served as frontier troops, state divisions, county brigades, and even local militia, totaled only a little over a thousand.

The rest were just ordinary people before! Don't even think about expecting them to form a battle formation! As for military combat skills, it would be strange if they could master them! Now it's good enough for them to have the courage to kill the barbarians to avenge their families!

Now, it is very necessary to choose a suitable whetstone and rely on a victory to further stimulate their bloodiness and strengthen their confidence!

In fact, it is not just the rescued people, but even most of the people in Yunliu Camp themselves have not been completely aroused!

Since the Yunliu Camp entered the Northern Wilderness, although they had fought 20 to 30 battles, most of them were favorable battles. In these battles, either their own troops had an advantage, or their weapons and armor had an advantage, or they were sneak attacks. A real head-on bloody battle, like the bloody battle at Lengfengkou, had never happened.

However, now, the right magic knife stone appeared.

Behind these real Grey Eagle barbarians, a barbarian force of several thousand men was following closely a few miles away. And behind the Yunliu camp, seven or eight miles away, there were also several thousand barbarian soldiers following closely.

However, the two barbarian troops were a little strange. They just followed, always keeping a distance of several miles, and did not actively speed up to attack. You have to know that these two troops were light cavalry.

Regardless of whether it was the Yunliu Camp or the Grey Eagle Tribe, their speed was not very fast. If the barbarians behind wanted to speed up and catch up, it would be easy for them to catch up!

But why didn't they catch up?

Since Liu Feiyun discovered this strange thing, he has been thinking about the reason.

For this reason, he specially summoned a group of officers to study the matter. The final conclusion was: the two chasing troops behind were just like the current Yunliu Camp, good-looking but useless.

Now that he had made the judgment, Liu Feiyun decided to launch an active attack on the two groups of barbarians behind him.

At this time, the two barbarian soldiers also joined together and slowly pressed towards Yunliu Camp, and at the same time sent a messenger to persuade them to surrender.

"My Lord, the Captain, has already known that you are from the Grey Eagle Tribe! He asked me to advise you to immediately return the Chen people, weapons, and iron materials that you have robbed! Then we can still discuss the matter! After all, we are all from the Northern Wilderness tribes! The Chen people are the biggest enemy of our Northern Wilderness tribes!"

"If you refuse to return them, then I will kill you right now, and Sky Khan will have nothing to say! You can't take these people and supplies with you!"

"Now we have 10,000 troops under our captain, and there are tens of thousands of troops blocking your way to the east! If you insist on going your own way and insist on robbing our Cangmang tribes of their things, you will only end up dead!"

The messenger spoke proudly to Tuo Dajun, who was dressed like a nobleman from the Northern Wilderness.

"Grey Eagle Tribe! Haha! We are not from the Grey Eagle Tribe! We are not your barbarian tribe! We are from the Yunliu Camp of the Dachen official army! We are the Dachen civilian militia, the revenge army! Go back and tell your damned commander! Let him prepare the battle formation. I, the little butcher Liu Feiyun, will be here! I will fight him fair and square!"

This time, Liu Feiyun did not let Tuo Dajun pretend to be the leader to deal with the situation as he did in the previous attacks on the barbarian camps in the Northern Wilderness. Instead, he spoke to the messenger in person.

The messenger was stunned at first, looked at Tuo Dajun, then looked at Liu Feiyun, and then sneered: "You Aokong tribes think we Cangmang tribes are fools? Little butcher, you might as well say you are Liu the Butcher's people!"

"Haha! Believe it or not! Come on! Send them away! Give the order and prepare for battle!"

Liu Feiyun also sneered.

After the envoy from the Northern Wilderness left, Liu Feiyun immediately began to deploy troops.

A few miles away from the Yunliu camp, when the messenger returned to the barbarian army on horseback and reported Liu Feiyun's response to the two commanders, the two commanders looked at each other and couldn't help but curse.

"Damn Grey Eagle Tribe! Shameless Grey Eagle Tribe! They actually wanted to impersonate the Chen people to deceive us!"

"These bastards, do they really think we are fools? They want to set up their battle formations and fight us in an open battle! I'm afraid that even if we set up our battle formations, he would have already run away!"

The two elderly Wan Hu can truly be said to be "great minds think alike"!

They immediately urged their troops to move forward, not bothering to form an attack formation, nor conserving the horses' energy, but rushing towards Liu Feiyun's army at the fastest speed.

It’s only a few miles away and we’ll arrive soon.

The two barbarian commanders saw what they had expected:

On the side of the convoy facing them, a thousand-strong infantry was deployed in what looked like a defensive formation. On the other side, thousands of cavalry were deployed on the north and south wings, preparing to cover the convoy's retreat to the east.

"More than a thousand infantrymen are blocking the front. The cavalry on both wings are supporting, so that the slaves and supplies of the Chen people can evacuate eastward first and join their main force! This is really a good plan!"

"That's good! That's good! Fortunately, we two old guys are both old people. We can see at a glance that this is just a trick by the leader of the Grey Eagle tribe to escape."

"But this is also good. We can bluff them and pretend to attack them to scare their soldiers away!"

"Then we will leisurely recapture the Chen people's slaves and supplies, leaving them for the real army in the east to deal with!"

The two Wanhu echoed each other, confirmed their previous judgment, and issued orders one after another, asking these barbarians to rush towards the convoy as quickly as possible.

However, when the barbarians attacked the thousand infantrymen at varying speeds, in a loose, disorderly and chaotic manner without any formation, something strange happened.

Behind the one thousand infantrymen, thousands of people suddenly appeared, drawing their bows and arrows, loading crossbows with arrows, and then shooting a volley of arrows at them.

The rain of arrows was really ugly. In some places the density of arrows was extremely high, while in one place there were only a few arrows.

In fact, only a few people were killed or injured in this rain of arrows, but it gave a great shock to the barbarians who were rushing in the front.

At the same time, the real combat force of Yunliu Camp, two thousand cavalrymen who could really fight, plus one thousand people who could barely ride horses, began to outflank and attack the barbarians from both wings to the west.

To be honest, the bows and crossbows of the thousands of infantrymen of the Xuehen Army were not very effective, but because of their large numbers, they still killed and injured hundreds of barbarians who were rushing in the front.

Although there were only a few hundred casualties, the barbarian offensive collapsed completely.

Many barbarians turned their horses around and wanted to run back, while the barbarians behind had no idea what was happening in front of them. Some of them also turned around and ran, while others shouted loudly to stop the retreat and let these defeated soldiers turn around and fight again!

The Xuehen Army did not take the initiative to attack forward, but the barbarians started to panic first!
