124: temptation

“Charge!” The Xiongnu General charged towards the Qin Army, but a wall of shields blocked his path.

“Up!” He pulled on the reins, and his warhorse leaped high, clearing the shield wall!

Just as he was about to wield his long saber, streaks of cold light suddenly appeared.

Countless long spears thrust forward, blood splattered, and the warhorse was immediately riddled with holes like a sieve, silently collapsing to the ground with a whimper.

The Xiongnu General stumbled to his feet, only to find countless spear tips aimed at him; he hadn't expected someone to be waiting behind the shields!

Although he had suffered several severe wounds, he still exerted his full strength, for only by doing so could he open a path for his tribesmen behind him!

The desperate counterattack of a High-level Military General could not be underestimated; in just a few breaths, he had cut down over a dozen spearmen, and a broken spear embedded in his body further proved him to be a true warrior! A valiant general!

But this could not change the situation before him; he knew he was at the end of his tether. If one of his tribesmen hadn't blocked a fatal blow for him just now, he would probably be a corpse by now!

“Kill!” he shouted, charging forward!

Suddenly, he noticed a black dot above him, and upon closer inspection, it was a person wielding a long saber, striking down at him.

“Ugh…” The saber rose and fell, half a blade rolled to the side, and the Xiongnu General remained in the stance of raising his saber to block, but only half a blade remained on the hilt, and he silently fell to the ground.

What a fine saber!

He used his last ounce of strength to turn his face towards the north, but all he saw before his eyes were the corpses of his tribesmen.

Finally, he closed his eyes.

Dead on the battlefield.

[Congratulations to the player for slaying an alien cavalry of the High-level Military General realm. The player is rewarded 10,000 merit points and 100 reputation points!]

Lin Yue was stunned when he heard the system prompt. So much?

With these ten thousand merit points, he had twenty thousand merit points again?

It seems the merit points from one military general are worth beheading two hundred high-level Soldiers, very worthwhile.

Lin Yue quietly watched the remaining few hundred Xiongnu people light cavalry take their last breaths, one after another, as they were surrounded by the Qin Army's long spears.

Not until the last Xiongnu people light cavalry fell did the Qin Soldiers step forward, each delivering a final stab to prevent anyone from feigning death. To their surprise, one Xiongnu people light cavalry suddenly erupted, grabbing a Soldier who was inspecting with a saber, threatening everyone and attempting to escape.

Seeing the situation, Lin Yue quickly ran over. The light cavalry, under everyone's gaze, placed his scimitar on the Soldier's neck, backing away step by step, using him as a shield.

However, the threatened Soldier's face was very calm, while the face of the person holding the saber, still childish, was full of tears, and his eyes were filled with panic.

He didn't understand why these people showed no sign of panic, but rather expressions of numbness and even mockery as they looked at him. Shouldn't they be very flustered?

But before he could figure out the reason, he felt a sharp pain, and then his life was forever frozen at the age of thirteen.

A headshot from an arrow.

The Soldier touched the unknown liquid on his face, sniffed it on his hand, then curiously looked back at the Xiongnu people light cavalry. His expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but finally vomit.

“Disgraceful, to be outsmarted by a wolf cub!

Thirty planks, to be administered after this is over!” She Jian said coldly, tossing his long bow aside and no longer paying attention.

Then the saber and shield Soldiers slowly moved again, closing the gap.

Wuluoli in the distance watched the Qin Army, who had once again closed the passage, thoughtfully.

That Xiongnu General was not of his faction; he was a supporter of the Xiongnu people Crown Prince, and in his heart, he was already on the death list, it was only a matter of time.

Now, using the Qin Army to eliminate him, he could also observe his strength; it was killing two birds with one stone.

It was just too fast; he died before finding a way to breach the Qin Army, which made him secretly curse, “What a waste!”

Wuluoli pondered quietly; no one dared to disturb him, after all, the last person who spoke to him was now sleeping here forever.

“Let’s go, we’ll take a look!” Wuluoli said with a smile, glancing around. Seeing that everyone avoided his gaze and dared not look him directly in the eye, he nodded in satisfaction and spurred his warhorse towards the Qin Army.

Very good, to make them submit, he must first make them fear.

As Wuluoli galloped forward, over a hundred thousand of his Army followed closely behind, circling the circular formation but maintaining a sufficiently large distance, not approaching.

Lin Yue and She Jian, on the other hand, were circling inside.

“A big fish has arrived,” She Jian said in a deep voice.

Seeing She Jian say this, Lin Yue wanted to use his Art of Recognizing People, but unfortunately, the distance was too great, and he did not succeed.

Immediately after, She Jian told him, “On the battlefield, never wear anything too conspicuous, or anything that makes you different from others!

Also, no matter how good the enemy’s armor is, never wear it, as doing so will make you a target.”

“Understood,” Lin Yue nodded.

The distinctive Xiongnu people was constantly circling, while She Jian’s Army remained motionless, steadfastly holding their ground!

Both sides were carefully probing each other's strengths and weaknesses.

“Here they come,” She Jian said.

The man stopped directly to the north, then pointed at them, and immediately several thousand light cavalry charged towards them.

However, without exception, these thousand or so cavalry soon fell on their way to attack, collapsing in pain before even touching the Qin Army's shield wall.

But not long after, the man sent out two more teams of light cavalry, each with fewer than five hundred men. Both teams of cavalry charged at them fearlessly!

She Jian’s expression was grim at this moment, but he still held back from acting.

After the Xiongnu people light cavalry once again fell on their way to attack, the Qin Soldiers all looked puzzled. Could these Xiongnu people be fools? Why did they keep coming in waves to their deaths?

Next, the Xiongnu people light cavalry dispersed, forming units of a hundred men each, surrounding the circular formation. When the low horn sounded, the first wave of attack began!

This time, attacks were launched simultaneously from all directions, with approximately a hundred teams, ten thousand light cavalry, charging towards them.

And the light cavalry behind them drew their bows, aiming at the Qin Army's direction, waiting for a single command to let the Qin Army taste the power of an arrow rain!

“Fire separately!” Wuluoli shouted.

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”

“Whoosh!”

The Xiongnu people light cavalry shot haphazardly at the Qin Army, and most of the arrows ultimately landed on the shield wall, with only a few scattering down.

“Do not fire arrows!” She Jian shouted.

The Army did not have many arrows; this situation had already been noticed by the Xiongnu people on the other side.

The first wave on the other side consisted of only ten thousand men, but they were distributed in all directions around the Army. If they fired a volley, the consumption of arrows would be an astonishing number!

The enemy could organize twenty more such charges, but their arrows would be depleted after three more volleys.

Without the suppression of ranged weapons, their situation would become even more dire!

“General, This humble general requests to lead the charge!” Lin Yue said, cupping his hands!
