It has to be said that their decision was correct. Soon, the county soldiers in Qiongshui County took the initiative to retreat. The retreat was so fast that the cavalry had no time to pursue them.

Yinbulukhan climbed onto the city wall very proudly.

But as soon as they climbed onto the city wall, two thick crossbow arrows were fired over.

If the soldiers around him hadn't drawn their swords and tried their best to stop him, he would have been pierced by the crossbow arrow.

Of course, he paid the price of two soldiers for this.

What made him feel most uncomfortable was that even if he climbed onto the city wall, more than two hundred cavalrymen fell on the city wall in the previous battle for the city wall.

As for the enemy, not a single corpse was seen.

At this time, behind the second city wall, Fang Xiaoyue was using a potion catalyzed by a nectar charm to treat the injured county soldiers.

On the second city wall, the archers worked hard and fired arrows one after another, killing the cavalrymen who had no cover on the city wall.

Although Yinbulukhan has a cruel personality, he has experienced many battles, and he quickly saw his own disadvantages.

When a large group of cavalry jumped off the city wall and fought along the passage, they would be assassinated by spears sticking out of the ruins on both sides.

If the cavalry poured into the ruins, the spearmen would fight and retreat.

Due to the narrow passages in the ruins, the cavalry with superior strength could not form an advantage at all.

After a short fighting, the cavalry had to withdraw from the city wall.

After a brief inventory, Yinbulukhan's face turned a little livid.

Until this time, nearly 700 of the cavalry under his command had been killed and 1,560 were seriously injured. The number of those who were slightly injured and still capable of fighting was not counted.

If the archers in Qiongshui County were not exhausted at this time, the casualties of the Siwan cavalry would have been even higher.

In other words, in just such a siege, he lost more than 800 troops, 8% of his total troops.

This reminded Yinlu Khan of the siege of the provincial capital of Luyuan Province. Due to Jinlu Khan's caution, the number of troops lost so far was only a thousand.

The losses of the Siwan cavalry in such a small county town were almost the same as those in the provincial capital.

This made Yinbulukhan extremely angry, but at the same time he couldn't help but become a lot calmer.

He had to calm down.

Based on these battle losses, within a few battles, I would have to withdraw in despair.

It is impossible to completely destroy one's wealth. In that case, after returning home, I'm afraid I won't be able to be this deputy sweat, let alone my own ambitions.

"withdraw troops!"

After hesitating for a long time, Yinbulukhan ordered all the cavalry to evacuate the city wall and set up camp more than 3,000 meters away from Qiongshui County.

Compared with Haruyi who rushed over in a hurry, Yinbulukhan was much more prepared for his trip.

The splendid big tent covering an area of ​​more than 100 square meters was erected first, followed by the guard tents in a circle, and outside were the tents of the elite cavalry and herdsman cavalry.

Yinbulukhan even sent people to cut down trees in far away places, preparing to build enough siege equipment, and then captured Qiongshui County in one fell swoop.

Even though there are very few trees in Qiongshui County, due to the large number of cavalry, these preparations can only be completed in three days at most.

Because they brought some craftsmen with them, they could even build more advanced siege equipment such as rams and catapults.

Of course, since it was already afternoon, Yinbruhan did not ask the craftsmen to build it immediately. Instead, he asked the cavalry to go out and cut down as many trees as possible and pile them up in the camp.

Those craftsmen now only need to repair the branches of the trees and make them into prefabricated timber to facilitate subsequent construction work.

Time passed bit by bit, evening came, and night fell quickly.

Piles of huge bonfires were also lit around the Sivan cavalry camp.

Yinbulukhan was sitting in his big tent, enjoying the singing and dancing of his concubines and maids, as well as the fine wine and food with his captains.

Only a deputy khan like him dared to take concubines and maids with him when marching and fighting. If it were those captains, they would have been beheaded by Jinlu Khan long ago.

It has to be said that the enjoyment of the big shots is naturally different from that of the soldiers below.

After cutting down a large number of trees, the cavalrymen below had dinner, threw their exhausted bodies into the tent, and fell asleep.

Only some sentries were still vigilantly patrolling every move in Qiongshui County.

But they didn't realize that high in the sky, a paper crane was closely monitoring them.

Fang Xiaoyue could easily see every move of the Siwan cavalry through the released paper crane.

There is no doubt that this is the best time for a night attack.

After a siege and felling of trees, most of the Sivanian cavalry were tired.

The only trouble is that the sentries are keeping an eye on Qiongshui County.

Of course, this is not unsolvable.

Under the leadership of Zhang Yuanming, more than a dozen people dressed in black and wearing invisibility charms quietly disappeared into the night.

With their efforts, the sentries near Qiongshui County were quickly eliminated one by one.

Without the supervision of sentries, more than two thousand blindfolded war horses were driven out of Qiongshui County.

Their tails were tied with cotton and linen soaked in kerosene.

After circling half a circle around the county town, the county soldiers drove the horses to a place about five hundred meters away from the Xiwan barbarian camp.

This is already the limit.

If they continue to move forward, the sentries sent from the Xiwan barbarian camp will discover them.

After all, no matter how powerful the invisibility talisman is, Fang Xiaoyue still needs to draw it one by one.

During the previous raid on Haru Battle, a lot of invisibility charms were used.

It is impossible for Fang Xiaoyue to draw the invisibility charm every day with nothing to do.

Besides, this distance is enough.

Zhang Yuanming and the Taoist soldiers without the invisibility talisman continued to cut off the sentries as much as possible, while the county soldiers continued to move forward with the horses.

When they were more than 300 meters away, Zhang Yuanming and other Taoist soldiers discovered that the sentries outside the barbarian camp began to shout warnings.

At this time, the county soldiers lit the cotton and linen on the horse's tail, and then stabbed the horse's butt with a knife.

The injured horses were frightened and sprinted forward quickly.

At this time, the continuous burning of cotton and linen will allow them to activate their maximum potential and run.

The blindfolded eyes will make the war horse ignore all obstacles in front of it.

The movement of a herd of more than 2,000 war horses while running is quite astonishing.

What's more, the burning cotton and linen on their tails makes it possible to see only a group of running flames from the barbarian camp.

In fact, at this time, some of the cavalry in the barbarian camp had already been awakened. When they got out of their tents and looked outside, they were all stunned.

What is coming from outside?

A group of running flames?

It was a scene they had never seen before and they didn't know what to do for a while.

But soon, a captain came from the camp.

Driven by these captains, the cavalrymen ran towards the hitch posts in an attempt to untie their horses.

But the horses that were angered by the fire pain were too fast, and they activated their lives faster than the cavalry sprinting.

This is not surprising, because no matter how brave the cavalry is, they will cherish their horsepower. They will often slowly accelerate when they are about two hundred meters away from the enemy, and they will not enter a sprint state until fifty meters away.

And these war horses are faster than a sprint.

Often after such a sprint, the horse will collapse and die because its potential has been greatly activated.

Therefore, before many cavalrymen could untie the horses from the hitching posts, the horses rushed into the camp. Each cavalryman was knocked away by the galloping horses, and the flames on the tails of the warhorses ignited each tent.

At this time, Fang Xiaoyue used a strong wind talisman, which suddenly caused a strong south wind.

The fire took advantage of the wind and quickly spread through the camp one by one.

At this time, Yinbulukhan and his personal guards were desperately trying to gather the scattered cavalry.

Fang Xiaoyue did not continue to stay behind the scenes, but drew out her long sword and took the lead in killing Yinbulukhan.

Behind him were Zhang Yuanming and other Taoist soldiers. As for the county soldiers, this time they were not deployed on the retreat route to the north, but instead charged towards the camp.

Whenever there is a gathering of barbarian cavalry, these county soldiers will quickly kill them, not giving the barbarian cavalry a chance to gather troops.

In less than twenty breaths, a group of fire horses burst out of the camp.

In fact, the entire group of fire horses did not cause much damage to the barbarian cavalry.

During this period, only two to three hundred barbarian cavalry were trampled, killed and seriously injured by the fire horses.

After all, the barbarian cavalry were not fools. They knew how to dodge when they saw so many war horses rushing towards them with the light of fire.

However, the spread of fire brought by the fire horses and the county soldiers who subsequently rushed into the camp amplified the fear, causing the barbarian cavalry to become chaotic.

At this time, seeing someone attacking the coach, Yinbulukhan's personal guards naturally drew their swords and tried to stop Fang Xiaoyue.
