Five thousand Han soldiers rode their horses and launched a wave of attacks on the barbarians ahead. Another wave of offensive finally completely defeated the psychological defense line of the Manchu soldiers.

The barbarian leader Agule led his confidants to hide in the secret passage in the village, waiting for the Han soldiers to climb over the foot of the mountain before they could quietly leave the village from another path.

This passage was originally used to prepare for retreat when escaping, but now it has become an escape passage for the barbarian leader.

"Go away quickly, stop being too slow!"

Looking at the dozen trusted people who followed him around him, the barbarian leader scolded him loudly.

"But the leader, the Han army hasn't seemed to have gone far..." one of the barbarian soldiers whispered.

"What are you afraid of? Do you want to die?" The barbarian leader glared at him fiercely, scaring the warrior immediately shut his mouth.

"Let's go, what should I do if you all leave! Who will stay with me?" The barbarian leader cursed and took the lead in rushing into the depths of the secret passage. The remaining dozen people had to bite the bullet and follow, running to the end of the village, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Chief, we have gotten rid of those Han people this time?"

A slightly younger barbarian warrior gasped.

"Hmph, it's not that easy. Even if you run away, you still have to call it back!"

Agule gritted his teeth and said, "Those damn Han people dared to chase me, and they caused me to suffer heavy losses. If that weren't the case, would you think I was willing to run away?"

"Chief, don't worry, when we catch those Han people, we will definitely tear them to death and avenge the leader!"

The young barbarian warrior said, "Those Han people are not worthy of living in this world at all!"

"Well, those Han people should die!" said the barbarian leader: "This is how I deserve my losses!"

Agule stared at the cliff in front of him with hatred: "It's a pity that we don't know what the damn man looks like. If we know what he looks like, I will definitely tear him into pieces and feed the dog!"

As soon as Agule finished speaking, he suddenly heard a strange sound coming from his side.

"Who? Who is it?" He was shocked and hurriedly pulled out the short knife from his waist and stabbed it behind him.

However, the black shadow had long disappeared, and only a faint fragrance was floating in the air.

"Oh my god!" The barbarian warriors screamed, turned around and wanted to run back, but were stopped by Agule: "Stop!"

"Why are you panic?" Agule asked with a frown: "Didn't you see a stone tablet there?"

After hearing Agule's words, everyone followed his eyes and saw a stone tablet erected next to the cliff twenty or thirty meters away from them. Although it was already ruined, the text above could be vaguely recognized - the tomb of the Barbarians!

"All the ones buried on this mountain are our barbarian heroes!" Agule shouted loudly, and at the same time pulled out the scimitar on his waist: "So, you are not allowed to talk nonsense anymore!"

When everyone heard this, they calmed down.

Agule sneered, turned around and continued to walk forward, his close friends following closely behind.

"Why did you stop us just now?"

A barbarian warrior asked in confusion.

"Idiot!" Agule couldn't help but curse, "I don't know where that thing came out, it must be the Han people! Have you forgotten the monster just now? If it hadn't suddenly appeared, can you still stand here and talk now?"

The barbarian warrior seemed a little aggrieved and muttered, "But, since it's so dangerous, why should we continue to move forward?"

"Stupid!" Agule couldn't help but say, "The Han people's bows and arrows are too powerful, we can't take risks!"

The warrior wanted to say something, but he didn't say it in the end.

Agule led his team forward for a short time and met another group of barbarians. After talking for a few words, he decided to join forces.

Agule then breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, this group of people are here, otherwise I would be really worried that our whereabouts would be exposed."

"Chief, what should we do next?"

"First find the group of Han people." Agule said with his eyes narrowed and said, "The Han people don't store much food. As long as they find that Han general, they can solve the problem of food and grass."

Agule's plan was indeed good, but he forgot one thing, and he had no idea where Liu Rui was hiding.

At this time, in a hidden cave, Liu Rui and others were sitting by the campfire and resting.

"The terrain here is quite complicated." Liu Rui touched his beard and said, "If there is no map, it would be difficult to find this place."

"Yes, the terrain here is indeed quite complicated," Liu Rui said: "But this is exactly what we need. If it is flat terrain, I will not be able to use my skills."

Liu Rui smiled and said, "Then we will be responsible for attracting the attention of the barbarian soldiers as we agreed upon, and the other brothers will be responsible for collecting supplies and formulating new combat plans."

"We have a total of sixteen people, a group of seven, four groups of eight, and the remaining five groups are responsible for protecting the food." Liu Rui continued: "If I guess correctly, there should be a canyon ahead of us. At that time, we must make good use of the terrain to avoid encountering barbarians."

"Yes, what we have to do now is to rush to the south side of the canyon as soon as possible, and then set up traps. After the barbarians get in, we will trap them inside. At that time, we will send people to surround them from the north side and then annihilate them!" Liu Yongyi said: "At that time, the heads of these barbarians will be our reward."

"That's right, as long as we can defeat these barbarians, our mission will be successfully completed!"

"The harvest this time is quite good, enough for us to have no worries about food and drink after returning to Han State!"

Everyone in this team was very excited, after all, the gains this time were simply huge.

"You guys say, would you be so happy if the Emperor of Han Empire knew about this?"

"Haha, that fool probably won't know."

Liu Yongyi shook his head: "He will only be grateful for us for helping him!"

"Hehe, we helped him solve this big problem!"

"That's right, even if we have a relationship with the Han people, we don't have to worry about being killed by the Han people in the future."

...

A group of people were talking about it here without considering it at all. If it weren't for Liu Rui and the others, these barbarians would probably never have thought of leaving here in their entire lives.

Liu Yongyi and Liu Yi both looked at Liu Rui, their eyes full of respect.

"I hope you all keep your promises, this is the last time!" Liu Rui said seriously: "I hope everyone can unite and not fight in the internal conflicts anymore. Otherwise, even if you escape by chance, you will definitely die when you return to the country!"

"Let's rest here first. Wait until the evening, we will attack once. If it succeeds, we will retreat immediately." Liu Meng suggested.

Liu Rui nodded and said, "Let's camp here tonight."

Liu Rui's eyes glanced at the surrounding environment and suddenly saw several wooden stakes not far away.

Liu Rui walked over quickly, kicked the wooden stakes off, fixed the wooden stakes to the trunk with branches, and then fixed the wooden stakes to a tree. In this way, the entire village wall seemed to have become a urn city. Even if the enemies outside wanted to break through the place, they would have to pay a huge price.

"You guys rest here, I'll take people to patrol and guard the police." Liu Rui said to Liu Meng and others.

"Okay, I understand." Liu Meng nodded.

Liu Rui and a hundred cavalrymen were lurking quietly around. If there was any disturbance, Liu Rui would warn him in time.

As night fell, the surroundings were extremely quiet, and Liu Rui and others couldn't sleep. They sat by the fire and chatted while observing the movement outside.

"Brother Liu, when do you think these barbarians will come?" Liu Yong asked.

"I don't know much, either." Liu Rui frowned and said, "According to custom, they should choose to attack at night, so we must be prepared for defense."

"Well, Brother Liu is right. Now we want to ensure that there are no fish that misses the net when these barbarians attack." Liu Yong exclaimed: "I didn't expect that Brother Liu still understands these things."

"I grew up in a tribe, so I naturally understood something." Liu Rui smiled bitterly: "The wisdom of our Han people is worthy of pride."

"Yes, our heads are much stronger than these barbarians!" Others also spoke.

As he was talking, a soldier suddenly shouted in surprise: "Brother Liu, look over there!"

Liu Rui looked in the direction of his finger, but saw a group of masked men in black slowly approaching their camp and counting carefully. There were about seven or eight hundred of them!

"Damn it, it's them!" Liu Yong cursed: "Brother Liu, do you want us to go out now?"

Liu Rui shook his head and said, "Don't worry, let them come first."

"They will definitely take advantage of the night to attack, and our opportunity will come!" Liu Rui said with his eyes narrowed.

"We can kill them all!" Liu Yong said excitedly.

"No, we are only responsible for killing people!" Liu Rui said contemptuously.

Liu Yong scratched his head and laughed, "It's the same anyway, I don't know."

Liu Rui ignored Liu Yong and just looked at the masked people in the distance indifferently.

The masked people were getting closer and closer to the camp, and Liu Rui and others were ready to fight at any time.

Liu Rui held the hilt of the knife in his hand tightly, his eyes cold.

"Drink..."

Just when the masked people were only three feet away from the camp, Liu Yong pulled out the horizontal knife behind him and roared.

"Swoosh!swoosh!swoosh!"

"Puff!"

The arrow broke through the air and heard a sharp whistling sound. The masked people were shot in an instant and fell to the ground with a wail and screaming.

At the same time, the crossbowmen also held up the crossbows in their hands and shot at these people. In an instant, the masked people lay on the ground and kept twitching.

"So awesome!"

Looking at the bodies lying down beside him, the cavalrymen suddenly screamed in excitement.

"Continue to hide in the dark, wait for me to attack, then rush out and behead!" Liu Rui said loudly.

Liu Rui and others immediately dispersed, looked for a relatively high terrain, and then lay there, quietly waiting for Liu Rui's order.
