In the middle of winter, the nights in the north were extremely cold, especially in the grasslands where the Xiongnu lived. Thus, the nights in the north were usually very dark. However, the night of the Xiongnu of the Xubu Tribe was completely disrupted by the sudden battle cries and flames from the sky!
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Piak piak piak … chi chi …."
“.....”
The battle cries and flames first started near the Xiongnu central tent before rapidly spreading to the surroundings. After the Xiongnu were frightened, they rushed out of their tents. Many of them were naked, how could they have the time to equip themselves?! Thus, the moment they rushed out, they would be pierced by the spears of the cavalrymen!
After Yang Rui's cavalrymen rushed into the gathering area of the Xiongnu tents, they spread out in groups of ten and wreaked havoc within a few li of the Xiongnu central tent, quickly clearing out a no-man's-land.
After the Xiongnu central tent was set ablaze by Zhang Ning, 40 to 50 of the guards, concubines, and maids near the tent rushed out. Most of them were disheveled. Yang Rui had seen this before and was already used to it.
"Ha!"
Following that, a loud shout was heard. A swift figure shot out from the left side of the Xiongnu central tent. He rolled on the ground and stood up. There was still a small flame burning at his waist. This person simply tore off his clothes and threw them to the side, revealing his muscular body under the illumination of the surrounding flames.
From his actions, it was not hard to tell that this person was an expert. He was the marquis of the Xubu Tribe, Xubu Tumu! Because they were not far away, Yang Rui and the others caught sight of Xu Butumu as soon as it appeared. Yang Rui and Gao Shun did not say anything when they saw this and immediately pounced on it.
"Kill!"
"Ta ta ta …."
After Xu Butumu rushed out of the central tent and extinguished the flames on his body, he didn't even have time to check his surroundings before he saw two figures pouncing towards him, one in front and one behind. He hurriedly raised a short knife in his hand and went on guard.
As Xubu Tumu was in a hurry when he rushed out of the tent, he only had a dagger. At this moment, the only weapon in his hand was a short knife. However, this short knife wasn't a proper weapon. It was usually used to cut beef and mutton to debone the meat!
"Huo!"
"Ha!"
“.....”
Although Yang Rui had already reached the level of a high-ranking martial general, he was still lacking compared to Gao Shun. Although the two of them pounced on the Xiongnu at the same time, Yang Rui was still quite a distance behind. However, with Gao Shun's strength, it should be enough to deal with the person in front of him. After Gao Shun and the other party exchanged blows, Yang Rui stopped 10 meters away to guard the formation.
Sure enough, it was as Yang Rui thought. The person who escaped from the central tent was not Gao Shun's opponent at all. After blocking two or three moves, he was knocked to the ground by Gao Shun's spear. When he tried to get up again, he realized that Gao Shun's weapon was already at his neck!
If it was any other time, although Xubu Tumu's strength could not compare to Gao Shun's, it would not be a problem for him to block a few moves. The only problem was the dagger in his hand. It was simply too unwieldy! The weapon that Xubu Tumu usually used was a huge blade that was more than ten feet long. It was completely different from the dagger in his hand!
At this time, the advantage of a surprise attack was revealed. Against an unprepared opponent, it was difficult for the opponent to even display half of his strength. If it was a direct confrontation, Gao Shun would not be able to subdue Xubu Tumu so easily!
However, it was useless to talk about this now. After Xubu Tumu was knocked to the ground, he was immediately tied up by the low level generals. Although Yang Rui was not clear about Xubu Tumu's identity, it was worth sparing his life just by looking at his skills.
"System Notification: Congratulations to player Scorching Sun for capturing the Xiongnu Marquis of the Xubu Tribe – Xubu Tumu. As you have successfully captured the leader of the Xiongnu Tribe, you have obtained the tribe's core tent …"
At this time, the system notification rang out and Yang Rui confirmed the identity of the person he had captured. It was indeed the tribe's Xubu tribe's leader! At the same time, the moment Xubu Tumu was captured, Yang Rui also obtained another umbrella shaped Xubu tribe's central tent!
"System Notification: Xubu tribe's Xubu Tumu has been captured. The Xubu tribe's Xubu tribe's Xubu tribe has been defeated. Within three game days, players who participate in the punitive expedition can loot the Xubu tribe's Xubu tribe's Xubu tribe. All loot will belong to them … "
The system notification was directed at everyone participating in the Hun Conquest Quest, which was why Dragonsoul and the other leaders, as well as all the players under their command, received the notification at the same time!
Regarding this, these people were extremely surprised. They did not expect that after being separated for two days, Yang Rui had actually taken down another Xubu tribe's central tent by himself! Although the six large player factions had gathered together, they were still stumped by the Xubu tribe in Shuo Fang City!
At the same time, they could not loot the Xubu tribe. They didn't even know the exact location of the Xu Bu Tribe! If it was not for the fact that they were in the middle of a punitive expedition and could not use communication, the leaders would have definitely asked!
"System Notification: Respected player Blazing Sun, this punitive expedition of the Xubu tribe has achieved a stage of success. You have met the requirements to record the mission node. You can choose to record the mission node and leave the Xubu tribe's territory. Your faction's hostility with the Xubu tribe will not change and you can start the mission again at any time! Do you want to record? Please make your choice! "
"System Notification: Respected player Blazing Sun, as you have successfully obtained two Xubu tribe's central tent items, Sun Qian's follower mission has been completed. Do you accept Sun Qian as a follower of the Qingzhou Provincial Governor? Please make your choice! "
Following this, two more system notifications came one after another. These two system notifications were for Yang Rui. Yang Rui did not expect that the punitive expedition of the Xubu tribe would also have a mission node. At the same time, Sun Qian's follower mission had been completed! Of course, Yang Rui didn't hesitate at all. He chose "Yes", recorded the mission nodes, and accepted Sun Qian as his follower.
After accepting Sun Qian's follower, Yang Rui's character information list actually had a piece of information related to Sun Qian. Yang Rui could not help but be surprised. When he had first entered the game, Yang Rui had also completed the follower mission, but at that time, there was no relevant character information!
At this moment, Sun Qian's character information appeared. However, it was displayed in yellow, different from Gao Shun and Zhang Ning's green statuses.
"Sun Qian: Great Han Administration Subordinate
1. Coordination: Level 1 Support Ultimate Skill. Process difficulty reduced by 100%. During the duration of use, Liegeman's popularity increased by 10 points. Use in the City Lord's Mansion, Council Room and other administrative buildings.
2. Quick Effect: Level 1 Support Ultimate Skill. Movement efficiency increased by 100%. During the duration of use, Liegeman's loyalty increased by 10 points. Use in the City Lord's Mansion, Council Room and other administrative buildings.
Yang Rui took a quick glance at Sun Qian's character information and realized that it wasn't as comprehensive as he had expected. There were only two skill descriptions, and there wasn't even any indication of skill consumption. At the same time, there was a clear indication that he was an "administrative subordinate of the Great Han Dynasty". What kind of status was that?
At this moment, Yang Rui did not have the time to think too much. As he had only brought a little more than 3,000 troops, although the Xubu tribe was empty, there was still some resistance! Therefore, Yang Rui quickly gathered Gao Shun and the rest, and charged left and right in the Xubu tribe's territory that stretched for 20 to 30 li!
The Xiongnu of the Sububu Tribe were already in a very passive position. Their leader, Marquis Mugudu, had already been captured by Yang Rui and forced into his storage ring. Without a leader, they did not put up much of a resistance. Most of them were fleeing for their lives! Now that Yang Rui and the rest had joined in, after rapidly plowing through the Xubu tribe's territory twice, the scattered resistance was completely wiped out. The surviving Xubu tribe no longer had the heart to resist, and all of them fled in all directions ….
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
“.....”
After a series of one-sided slaughter, apart from a small portion of the Xubu tribe survivors who managed to escape, the rest were either injured or had given up on resisting and surrendered. After being tied up by Yang Rui's troops, they were gathered into piles and squatted on the ground.
Yang Rui, on the other hand, forced the Xiongnu captives into the storage ring one by one. After busying himself for about four hours, he finally managed to store all the captives into the storage ring. There were over nine thousand captives in total, and most of them were female Xiongnu children. There were only a few hundred able-bodied youths!
The main reason was that the Xubu tribe's Marquis Shaogu had mobilized most of them to reinforce Qiu Linyan, and the remaining 80 to 90% were killed in the process of resistance. The majority of the Xubu tribe's women and children had luckily survived, which was why the current situation had occurred.
The reason why these captives were kept was because Yang Rui believed that there was a possibility of using these captives in the future after learning of the method to obtain the Xubu tribe's core tent. If he really succeeded, it would be equivalent to replenishing a large number of people out of thin air!
The captives were secondary, and whether or not it could be fulfilled was another matter altogether. This time, Yang Rui had single-handedly plundered a Xubu tribe, and only then did he have a deeper understanding of the enormous benefits involved! Just the Xubu tribe's Xiongnu tribe's gathering ground alone was already very impressive for Yang Rui. This was the first time that Yang Rui had ever obtained such a bountiful amount of spoils of war!
Other equipment, skill books, and the like were secondary. Just in terms of gold, Yang Rui had already obtained over 500,000 gold coins! This was a stark contrast to the 10,000 gold coins he had obtained from the Qiulin tribe's Xiongnu tribe!
