The scouts of the Brocade Guards shuttled back and forth in the army, allowing Qin Feng to know the movements of this Xiongnu cavalry like the back of his hand.
When both sides were about to get close, Qin Feng directly ordered the entire army to stand by.
This location was between two mountains. It was similar to a passageway, but it was relatively wide.
After passing through this place, they would enter the depths of the grassland, which could be considered a border.
At the same time, the system's mechanical voice sounded again.
Ding! Congratulations to the host for triggering the side mission: Encounter (Forced)!
[Condition for victory: Capture or destroy more than 80% of the enemy.]
[Condition for failure: Over 5,000 casualties.]
[Mission Reward: 5,000 each for Black Iron Armor and Tang Hengdao!]
[Mission Failure: Reward: A Trash Badge!]
Qin Feng was speechless. Failure was impossible.
The army stopped here and Xu Chu came to Qin Feng excitedly.
"My lord, let me lead my brothers and let these grassland barbarians have a taste of our strength.”
"No need."
Qin Feng said in a deep voice," It's night time. Night battles have poor vision and are already restricted. Why bother fighting them head-on?"”
"But…"
"I know what you're thinking. Now that we've entered the grasslands, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.”
Qin Feng said coldly," We have a lot of people and excellent equipment. There's no need to give up our advantage. The days of bitter fighting are still behind us."”
"Yes."
Xu Chu had no choice but to leave.
Qin Feng was prepared to hand this battle over to the new recruits. To be more precise, he was prepared to hand it over to the God Shooter Battalion.
The 20,000 strong army led by Qin Feng is made up of a total of 5 battalions!
1st Battalion, Overlord Cavalry, 5,000 people, personally led by Qin Feng.
Of course, more than four thousand of these five thousand could not be considered the Overlord Cavalry. They still needed to be baptized by the flames of war.
The second battalion, Embroidered Uniform Guards, also had five thousand people, and was led by Commander Xu Gong.
The third battalion was the Breaking Ranks Battalion, with 5,000 people under Xu Chu's command.
Of course, this Breaking Ranks Camp wasn't the Breaking Ranks Camp of Gao Shun in history.
The 5,000 people in the Breaking Ranks Camp were all burly men with large shields and bronze spears.
Strictly speaking, the Breaking Ranks were infantry. However, Qin Feng still gave them horses.
There was nothing he could do about it. Qin Feng lacked everything except horses. This was the result after Meng Tian had taken 30,000.
The 4th unit was the Divine Archer Unit, with 3,000 people. All of them were good archers.
The 5th unit was responsible for rations and supplies. The supply unit had 2,000 people.
Fighting at night was inherently risky.
This was especially true for cavalry.
Qin Feng is not prepared to take this risk. His attitude towards war is to destroy the enemy!
He didn't want to show off his courage and give up his advantage.
Thus, Qin Feng plans to use the Divine Shooter Battalion as the main force for this battle, with the other battalions supporting.
The army stopped and moved quickly after Qin Feng gave the order.
Qin Feng arranged the Divine Shooter Battalion to be at the front, while the Breaking Ranks Battalion was at the side.
Qin Feng himself led the Overlord Cavalry to hold the line.
When everything was ready, a moment later.
Qin Feng heard the sound of horse hooves coming from ahead!
Good fellow, he didn't hide at all. It could be said that he was coming menacingly.
It was the Xiongnu cavalry led by Jin Riren!
His idea was simple. He wanted to make use of his excellent warhorses and riding skills to sneak attack and rob at night.
The night was dark.
Only the two sides of Jin Riren's men were holding torches, and their vision was severely blocked.
However, their speed was still very fast.
This was completely based on his accumulated experience.
The outstanding cavalrymen of the grasslands could stay on their horses for an entire day, eating, drinking, and defecating on their horses!
They advanced rapidly!
Other than the sound of hooves, the others had solemn expressions and did not communicate.
From this, it could be seen that these people did not live up to their reputation.
"The enemy should be here by now. Why is there no sign of them?" Jin Riren asked in confusion.”
"Maybe they stopped in front of us. That way, it'll be easier for us to ambush them.”
As soon as this person finished speaking, a bright light suddenly appeared in front of them.
It was a torch!
They were all torches!
It was simply endless.
The sudden brightness dazzled Jin Riren's eyes, and he subconsciously raised his hand to block it.
"Light the fire!"
Qin Feng's order was passed down layer by layer.
Someone immediately lit up the cotton wool on the archers 'arrows.
"Release!"
Jin Riren's eyes had just gotten used to it when he felt a sharp pain again. Then, his expression changed drastically!
The arrows that were shooting over were all rockets!
The density was extremely high, and there were no blind spots at all!
"No!"
Jin Riren roared.
It was only then that he realized that because their vision was blocked at night, they did not see the enemy beforehand.
However, the enemy had been waiting for them here for a long time.
When they appeared in their line of sight, the enemy would light a torch, reveal their identity, and launch an attack.
What he used was a rocket!
"Sou! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
The sound of wind breaking could be heard. At this moment, the sky was filled with arrows and the Gold Crow Clan cavalrymen were all drowned.
The fire arrows that filled the sky lit up half of the sky. However, all the cavalrymen of the Golden Crow Tribe were stunned!
