The leader of the thousand wolf hawk cavalry sat on his horse with a serious expression. He looked at the black line that was quickly approaching them and said in a low voice, "There are about ten thousand of them. It seems like the desert bandits really have escaped."
The people of the prairie were used to calling the desert bandits as desert bandits. Because of this, the Thousand-Rider Captain called them desert bandits. Another person standing beside him nodded and said, "Right, it's desert bandits. At this time, besides those despicable desert bandits, no one else would have this many troops. They really know how to choose the right time."
The Thousand-Rider Captain said, "Tell the brothers to leave immediately after this attack. We need to spread this news as soon as possible. Let the prairie tribes increase their vigilance. The destructive power of ten thousand desert bandits isn't small." The person nodded and immediately went to pass down the order.
Following his order, the Wolf Hawk Cavalry were all ready. They didn't reveal their bows, but instead took out their bows and arrows. At the same time, they placed their quivers in a place where they could easily grab arrows.
When the cavalry commander saw that everyone was ready, he nodded. Then he waved his hand and led the group forward. Their horses weren't very fast, but when they galloped, it was very rhythmic. A thousand horses galloped, but when they galloped, it was as if there was only one horse galloping. Only elites would be able to do this.
Zhao Hai looked at the Wolf Hawk Cavalry with a flash of appreciation in his eyes. He had seen a lot of cavalry, but there weren't many who could do what the Wolf Hawk Cavalry did.
However, Zhao Hai didn't have time to sigh. After all, the other party was his enemy. The stronger the other party was, the more disadvantageous it would be for them. Thinking of this, Zhao Hai turned to Hei Tianhu and said, "Brother Tiger, be careful of their mounted archery. I'll go and disrupt their formation first. You guys attack from behind." Then, Zhao Hai squeezed his horse's belly. Banzhu gave a loud cry, and his body went forward. In the blink of an eye, he had separated himself from the rest of the army.
Zhao Hai's actions didn't only surprise the Wolf Hawk Cavalry, Hei Tianhu's group was also startled. But now that Zhao Hai had left, Hei Tianhu couldn't stop him even if he wanted to. He still had to control his horse's speed, so he couldn't run too fast.
When the thousand-rider commander of the Wolf Hawk Guards saw Zhao Hai rushing over, his eyes couldn't help but narrow. Then his face turned ashen as he said in a deep voice, "It's that person from the Saber Guard Army? Kill him! "
Because they weren't able to stop the Saber Guard Army, they ended up in this situation. Now that they saw Zhao Hai, they naturally became even angrier. If they met someone else from the Saber Guard Army, they wouldn't be able to recognize him this quickly. There was no other way, they met Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai's figure was too special, it was hard for them to not recognize him.
As the distance between Zhao Hai and the Wolf Hawk Guards got closer and closer, Zhao Hai also had a bow in his hand. This bow was obtained by Zhao Hai, it was a five-picul bow.
Zhao Hai nocked an arrow and shot it out. His arrow was much farther than the Wolf Hawk Guards. Before the Wolf Hawk Guards could react, Zhao Hai had already shot down several of them.
At this time, Zhao Hai finally entered the range of the Wolf Hawk Guards. The thousand-rider commander immediately gave the order to shoot. At this time, Zhao Hai put away the bow in his hand and took out a bullhead drum. Then he waved the drum and blocked the arrows that were flying towards him. At the same time, Banzhu's speed increased once again. In the blink of an eye, he had already rushed into the Wolf Hawk Guards.
The Wolf Hawk Guards also discovered that bows and arrows were useless against Zhao Hai. They immediately took out their scimitars. Although scimitars were very good weapons for horses, they were still lacking compared to the bullhead drum in Zhao Hai's hand. The most important thing was the length. When fighting on horseback, speed was very fast. Aside from duels, in a head-on clash like this, you would only be able to attack your opponent in a short amount of time. Even if you were very fast, you would only be able to make two moves at most. At this time, the length of the weapon was a huge advantage.
As soon as Zhao Hai entered the Wolfhawk Guard army, a bull-head armor suddenly appeared on his body. The bull-head drum in his hand danced crazily. With him as the center, there wasn't a single living person within five meters of him. As long as a Wolfhawk Guard entered this range, they would all be beheaded.
Zhao Hai killed his way through the thousand-man squad. It didn't take long for him to kill his way through the squad. But this wasn't the most important thing. The most important thing was that because the thousand-man squad was fighting with Zhao Hai, they weren't able to pull away from Hei Tianhu's army. At this time, they had already entered the attack range of Hei Tianhu's army.
Hei Tianhu was also a warrior on the battlefield. Naturally, he wouldn't let go of this opportunity. Therefore, he didn't hesitate and immediately gave the order to shoot. He wasn't afraid of hurting Zhao Hai. This was because he could see that with Zhao Hai's ability, he wouldn't be able to hurt Zhao Hai.
Strictly speaking, the desert bandits and the grassland's cavalry had a similar way of fighting. They were mainly mounted archers, and their weapons were also scimitars. Therefore, when Black Sky Tiger saw that the enemy was in range, he immediately gave the order to shoot.
In an instant, the arrows rained down and directly hit the thousand-man Wolf Hawk Guard. The thousand-man squad was shot down. Just as the thousand-man squad was about to leave the battlefield, they discovered that it was already too late. They had already been surrounded. Behind them, there were two more groups of five thousand people. They had already lost their chance to escape.
When the thousand-man commander saw this, he immediately released his golden eagle. He wanted the golden eagle to send a message to the Golden Wolf Tribe. In order to make the golden eagle move faster, he didn't even have time to write a report.
But at the moment when the Golden Eagle flew up, a dark shadow in the sky rushed directly to the Golden Eagle. Before the Golden Eagle could react, it was shot down.
The thousand-man commander also noticed that the golden eagle was shot down. He looked at the eagle in shock and screamed, "Ghost Eagle? How could it be a Ghost Eagle? "He was so shocked that his voice sounded a bit sharp. He couldn't help but be shocked. This was because he knew this type of black eagle. This type of black eagle was called a Ghost Eagle. It was a battle eagle trained by the Asri Family of the Virtuous Prince of the Left. Its strength was definitely much stronger than the golden eagle.
However, the thousand-man commander also knew that no one in the Virtuous Prince of the Left knew this secret method. This was because this method of training eagles was only known by the Asri Patriarch. The current Virtuous Prince of the Left, Asri Kuangshi, obtained the position of Patriarch through illegal means. Because of this, he didn't know how to train eagles. The people of the prairie thought that this secret method of training eagles was lost. They didn't expect to see a Ghost Eagle here today.
Hei Tianhu heard the thousand-man commander's words, but he didn't respond. He just coldly snorted. Then he waved his hand and the army began to attack.
They were already very close. At this distance, it was no longer suitable to use bows and arrows. All that was left was to fight in close quarters. The Wolf Hawk Guards were indeed elites. Even at a time like this, none of them ran away or retreated. They kept charging, charging, and in the end, all of them fell on the path of the charge.
When the last Wolf Hawk Guard fell, Hei Tianhu finally relaxed. At this time, a person came to his side. Hei Tianhu turned his head and saw that it was Zhao Hai.
Hei Tianhu nodded to Zhao Hai. Then he let out a long breath and said, "They're worthy of being called elites of the prairie. They're really strong. What do you think?"
Zhao Hai said, "Give them a proper burial. They're brave warriors, but take their equipment and give it to our brothers. Take their armor as well, but don't take their clothes."
Hei Tianhu nodded. Although he hadn't been a desert bandit for a long time, he was very clear about how these bandits did things. The resources in the desert were too scarce. In the past, when they encountered a situation like this, they wouldn't let go of anything. It was normal for them to strip these people of their clothes. The clothes that the Wolf Hawk Guard wore were all good stuff. But now that Zhao Hai said it, Hei Tianhu naturally wouldn't object. He immediately passed down the order.
With twenty thousand people, the battle didn't take long. At the same time, they also counted the results of the battle. Although they didn't fight for a long time and had the upper hand, they still lost around a thousand people. This was one to one. And this was after Zhao Hai killed more than two hundred of the Wolf Hawk Guards. If they were to fight the Wolf Hawk Guards head on, their casualties wouldn't be this small. They might even lose four to five thousand people.
Aside from the casualties, they also gained a lot of good things. Not to mention the jerky, they also gained close to a thousand horses. Because the Wolf Hawk Guards each had two horses, there were still close to a thousand horses left even though they had shot down many of the horses.
Aside from the horses, they also got weapons, scimitars, bows, and arrows. One must know that these things were all obtained from the Wolf Hawk Guards. And the Wolf Hawk Guards were the elites of the Wolf Soul Kingdom. How could their equipment be bad? These things were definitely good.
Of course, aside from these, there was also the armor. Armor was actually the most difficult to make. The armor of the Wolf Hawk Guards was different. Their armor wasn't completely made of iron. It was too heavy and would affect their movements. At the same time, it would also have a huge impact on their horses. Of course, their armor wasn't completely made of leather either. Their armor was made of leather with iron pages.
Leather was the main body of the armor, but the important defensive parts of the body were all equipped with iron pages. Therefore, their armor's defensive power was very strong, and it wasn't very heavy.
After collecting the equipment, they buried the bodies of the Wolf Hawk Guards. One must know that in the prairie, there were a lot of times where people didn't need to be buried. Prairie wolves, prairie eagles, wild dogs, and other animals would naturally help you clean up the corpses. Therefore, in the prairie, burying the dead was a very important etiquette.
After burying those people, Zhao Hai and the others finally moved forward. Zhao Hai was still the scout, so they quickly found the tribe that Barter was talking about. Such a small tribe naturally couldn't block the advance of an army. After being defeated by Hei Tianhu and the others, no one in the tribe was able to escape. In this small tribe, all the men who were taller than a wheel were beheaded on the spot. All the women who resisted were also killed. Only some ignorant children and some women who didn't resist were left behind and became their spoils of war.
Facing such a situation, Zhao Hai didn't feel too uncomfortable. He had seen a lot of killings, and he had even experienced crueler ones. Why would he care about something like this?
After destroying the small tribe, they cleaned up the camp and waited for Captain Feng and the others to arrive. Captain Feng and the others quickly arrived and set up camp by the river.
After the tent was set up, Captain Feng invited everyone into the tent. After everyone sat down, Captain Feng smiled and said, "Not bad, we've made a good start. Although this tribe isn't big, it has a lot of good things. It seems like being a bandit has a bright future." Zhao Hai nodded. Everyone chuckled. There weren't a lot of people who were actually bandits. Therefore, they didn't feel anything wrong with Captain Feng's joke.
Captain Feng looked at Hei Tianhu and Zhao Hai, then he said, "Today, I've made some calculations. The two of you have the highest merits. Don't worry, rewards are unavoidable. Naturally, I know that you don't lack Crane Grass. But if I don't reward you, then other people will make a contribution. Therefore, you have to accept it."
Zhao Hai nodded, he didn't object. This was because he knew that Captain Feng was right. If he didn't accept the rewards, then other people would make a contribution in the future. However, other people weren't like him who didn't worry about money. If he didn't accept the rewards, then other people's income would be cut off. This was tantamount to offending other people. Naturally, Zhao Hai wouldn't do such a thing.
Seeing that Zhao Hai didn't object, Captain Feng relaxed. He was afraid that Zhao Hai would object. Now that Zhao Hai didn't object, he naturally felt relieved. Captain Feng then said, "Tomorrow, Crane Grass will still be the captain of the scout team. The army will be divided into the front and the rear, separated by ten li. The front will still be led by Hei Tianhu, and the number of people will be set at ten thousand. The rear will be led by me, and the number of people will be set at forty thousand. Does anyone have any objections?"
Everyone shook their heads. At this time, a voice was heard, "Boss, I want to join the scout team!"
When everyone heard this voice, they immediately knew who it was. There was only one woman in the team, and that was Fire Phoenix. However, no one thought that Fire Phoenix would want to join the scout team. Wouldn't that mean that she would be in the same team as Zhao Hai?
After thinking about this, everyone turned their heads to look at Fire Phoenix. Their faces were filled with confusion. Fire Phoenix looked at everyone, then she turned to Captain Feng and said, "Boss, I don't have anything to do here. But the scout team is the most dangerous place in the army. Therefore, I want to join the scout team. This way, if something happens, then Crane Grass and I can guarantee the safety of the scout team. I hope that Boss will allow it."
