198: Fire Bull Attack Camp

“Quick, set up the chevaux de frise!” King Baiyang shouted after hearing the Foreman's report!

“What, go to your mother?” At the extremely noisy party, the Xiongnu people Foreman heard him unclearly and asked loudly, straining his voice.

“I’ll go to your mother!” King Baiyang slapped him, and the Xiongnu people Foreman flew two meters away, falling to the ground and twitching.

“Stop! Stop!” King Baiyang shouted, but everyone was still immersed in the grand party and didn't hear King Baiyang's roar at all.

Seeing this, King Baiyang could only gather his trusted aides and hurry out.

At this moment, every second counted!

They absolutely could not allow any losses to the three million cattle outside the city!

When he arrived at the Encampment gate, he saw tens of thousands of fireballs rapidly approaching them!

“Set up the chevaux de frise!” King Baiyang shouted!

If he was worried about the three million cattle and sheep when he arrived earlier, now he was worried about the entire Xiongnu people Encampment!

This was an organized, premeditated attack.

Now he was certain this was an enemy attack specifically targeting him, King Baiyang!

He just didn’t know who the opponent was. Could it be Modu?

Or the Qin Army?

The Xiongnu Soldiers guarding the Encampment reacted from their shock, frantically taking out chevaux de frise stakes and arranging them at the Encampment gate.

At the same time, shouts of “Enemy attack!” continuously rang out!

Cheveaux de frise stakes were not only common in the Great Qin Army but also essential on the grasslands. The Xiongnu Soldiers quickly set up three rows of stakes to intercept the fire cattle.

The chevaux de frise stakes were covered with uneven barbs. Once a warhorse failed to dodge and crashed into them, it would immediately fall to the ground, unable to get up!

But facing them were cattle, a herd of mad cattle on fire!

The impact force of mad cattle was far beyond what warhorses could compare to! And compared to warhorses, mad cattle were also much tougher!

Simply put, the mad cattle were now warhorses with increased health, attack, and defense, and had activated Blood Rage!

The chevaux de frise stakes couldn't stop them at all!

The mad cattle charged towards the chevaux de frise stakes without hesitation!

The chevaux de frise stakes didn't serve their intended purpose; they were directly knocked flying by the immense impact force of the mad cattle!

The first line of chevaux de frise!

The second line of chevaux de frise!

It wasn't until the third line of chevaux de frise that the mad cattle reluctantly fell to the ground, groaning softly.

The Xiongnu Soldiers had just breathed a sigh of relief when suddenly, a fiery shadow charged out from the front!

The next moment, he felt his body suspended in the air, having been gored and sent flying!

At the same time, the weapon on the mad bull's horn also stabbed one person, dragging her for more than ten meters before switching targets.

That Xiongnu people Soldier's intestines spilled out, and he eventually fell to the ground, unwilling to yield.

This scene was witnessed by nearby Xiongnu Soldiers, who were all terrified!

“Retreat! Quick, retreat!”

“It's mad cattle! It's herds of mad cattle!”

“Get back! We can't stop them with our strength!”

“Enemy attack! Run!”

Countless Soldiers shouted in panic.

Their feet weren't idle either; they quickly retreated!

But as soon as they turned around, King Baiyang drew his great saber and cut one of them in half!

“All of you, get back! Don’t let them charge into the Encampment!”

King Baiyang shouted!

These mad cattle were all on fire. Once they rampaged into the Encampment, the Encampment would also be set ablaze!

What's more, there were sacrifices contributed by various tribes near the Encampment, including flammable materials like grease. Once ignited, the consequences would be unimaginable!

“Dong!” A loud noise came!

Everyone instinctively squatted down to take cover, only to hear an explosion not far away.

King Baiyang looked towards the source of the sound; that was exactly where the grease was stored!

“Ah!” The Xiongnu Soldiers took advantage of King Baiyang’s momentary daze and frantically fled into the Encampment!

Going forward was death, going backward was also death, but there were so many of them, King Baiyang alone couldn't kill them all!

“Stop! Go back!” King Baiyang shouted, but no one listened to him. His roar was completely drowned out by the terrified screams!

Suddenly, a mad bull charged straight at him. Two guards beside King Baiyang stepped forward to block it, but they were sent flying.

But this also provided King Baiyang with precious time!

“Break!” King Baiyang roared, using all his strength to slash his great saber forward. The saber collided with the weapon on the mad bull's horn!

Although the mad bull was incredibly strong, it couldn't avoid being split in two. A cloud of blood mist exploded in the air, and King Baiyang's face was stained crimson!

“Lord King Baiyang, quickly retreat!” The surrounding Xiongnu people quickly stepped forward, shielding King Baiyang behind them.

At this moment, King Baiyang’s hands trembled slightly. The impact from this mad bull was at least a thousand, or even ten thousand catties!

Even with his strength as a newly advanced First-rate Military General, he found it difficult to contend with so many mad cattle!

Seeing numerous fire cattle charging straight into the Encampment, King Baiyang sighed and retreated!

“Gather the troops! Resist the fire cattle!” King Baiyang shouted as he retreated!

He could easily handle three, five, or even ten mad cattle, but these mad cattle were endless and densely packed, stampeding together.

If he was even slightly careless, he would be trampled into a meat paste!

“Ah!” A lost fire cow charged into a nearby tent, and terrified screams came from inside!

The fire cow didn't stay long and quickly rushed out from the other side of the tent. The tent tilted slightly but did not collapse.

However, after the fire cow left, flames spread through the tent, gradually burning it!

“What happened?”

“What’s going on?”

“What is that?”

Nearby Xiongnu people were awakened by the firelight and screams, and they walked out, still half-asleep, to look.

But the next scene instantly sobered them up!

They saw countless mad cattle stampeding along the central path, like a fiery dragon.

“Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Shhh~”

Some Xiongnu people shouted in place, wanting to warn other tribesmen. But before they could escape, they were swallowed by the fiery dragon, disappearing without a trace!

At this moment, the herd of fire cattle was like the wildebeest herds during the African migration, with countless wildebeest stampeding, even lion prides having to give way!

What's more, this was an even larger and more frenzied herd of fire cattle!

The massive dust cloud raised by their running had obscured the Moon God, and half of the Encampment was plunged into darkness!

“Set fire!” King Baiyang shouted!

Cattle feared fire; they had an ingrained dread of flames!

So, some Xiongnu people had already arranged grease and dry grass in a line ahead, preparing to isolate this herd of fire cattle!

“Lord King Baiyang, there are hundreds of thousands of our tribesmen there!” Someone advised.

Now the herd of cattle was about to break through the outer perimeter of the Encampment. Setting fire to isolate them would mean countless tribesmen would perish in the flames!

“Set fire!

Quick!” King Baiyang roared, seeing the fire cattle about to charge through. Any more hesitation and it would be too late!

With that, King Baiyang snatched a longbow from a nearby person, notched a flaming arrow, and shot it!

In an instant, a flame shot up!

It formed a wall of fire, stopping the advance of the fire cattle herd.

The fire cattle herd immediately braked, stopping in place, not daring to charge through!

However, the impact force of the fire cattle herd was too great; the fire cattle in the rear didn't stop, and due to continuous collisions, some fire cattle were still pushed into the wall of fire!

Several shrill cattle cries rang out, and then they rushed out of the fire wall towards King Baiyang and his men!

Unlike before, these fire cattle had now become truly fiery cattle!

Several fire cattle were completely engulfed in flames. King Baiyang quickly retreated; at this moment, no one wanted to clash head-on with them!

Because although fire cattle were tough, under such intense flames, they wouldn't last long before collapsing!

Indeed, those few fire cattle eventually collapsed in front of King Baiyang. The appearance of the fire wall finally gave them a moment to breathe.

But King Baiyang still frowned, because he had never felt so aggrieved.

This battle had been fought until now, and he didn't even know who the enemy was!

But before they could catch their breath, shouts of terror rang out again within the Encampment!
