My Cultivation Starting from Archery

Chapter 162 The Daqing Empress, Defeat is Inevitable_4



"What a fast horse!"

"This horse is an Exotic Beast!"

Lang Jiping ground his teeth.

He felt his face flush with embarrassment.

All the grandiose boasts he had made earlier had become a joke.

When Chen Sansi came alone to issue a challenge, he had backing to rely on, and had even anticipated that Lang would secretly arrange for an ambush.

"Assistant General Lang, are we still pursuing?"

Another Assistant General, Yue Chen, asked. Explore more at My Virtual Library Empire

"Chase my ass!"

Lang Jiping bit his teeth and said, "By doing this, he must have an ambush; if we pursue, wouldn't we be falling right into his trap! Return to camp!"

"Whiz——"

"Si——"

A sharp sound of cutting wind followed by the clashing of armor rang out.

A fully armored soldier was shot directly through the heart by a sharp Triangular Armor-piercing Arrow, with his solid iron armor proving as ineffective as paper mache.

"General!"

"That Chen has come back!"

A mere 300 steps away, the narrowly escaped Chen Sansi returned, holding his Iron Core bow. Without any discernible movement, a "whiz, whiz, whiz" sounded, and three more cavalrymen fell from their horses.

"This is too much bullying!"

Lang Jiping cursed: "I've long heard that this man was a hunter and excelled in archery. From 300 steps away, he still possesses such power, it seems it's not just his accuracy that's good; his arrows must also weigh over fifty 'li'!"

"High Realm Generals, what use are arrows!"

"I just don't believe it!"

Yue Chen said as he drew his long sword and charged forth, watching as the enemy once again drew his bow. With a light swing of his sword, he intended to deflect the incoming arrow.

"Buzz!"

The next moment.

He felt the arrow flying towards him as though it were a martial move struck by the hand of a Martial Artist, carrying a tremendous and tyrannical force that sent his long sword flying. Then, a cold sensation at his throat followed by a suffocating feeling, his head spun, darkness flashed before his eyes, and he lost consciousness, falling stiffly onto the grass with his eyes wide open.

One arrow killed the Assistant General!

"Whoosh——"

The five hundred cavalrymen who witnessed this were horrified and shocked.

"Your arrow, it can carry true power?!"

Lang Jiping could hardly believe it.

He had never heard that there was such a divine weapon in the world.

"Whiz, whiz, whiz——"

More arrows followed swiftly.

Chen Sansi sat leisurely on Qian Xun, with seven or eight Arrow Bags hanging on either side, the bowstring in his hands "humming" as if it were a musical instrument, except every note that sounded marked the end of a life.

"What are you Horse Archers waiting for, counterattack, counterattack!"

Hiding among the crowd, Lang Jiping shouted loudly, "The rest of you, charge for me, he's just one man, he can't possibly shoot all of you dead, go, whoever can capture him, no, kill him, will be rewarded a thousand gold and promoted three ranks!"

With the promise of a rich reward.

The cavalry mustered their courage and commanded their warhorses to charge towards the White Horse ahead.

However...

The speed at which this young General shot arrows was beyond everyone's imagination; almost every time they blinked, at least two brothers fell from their horses.

The dense crowd of cavalry, once they reached Chen Sansi, had already suffered heavy casualties, becoming sparse and struggling to maintain formation.

And at that moment.

Chen Sansi once again retreated, effortlessly increasing the distance between them.

As for the Nanxu Horse Archers...

Their effective range was only a little over a hundred steps.

But the White Horse General's range was 300 steps!

Nearly a mile!

At such a distance, they struggled even to see the White Horse General's silhouette clearly.

With such a great disparity, their bows and arrows were completely useless!

After several rounds of charges.

Five hundred cavalrymen!

Only the last two hundred remained!

"General! We can't catch up!"

The hundreds of cavalrymen, played with as if they were toys.

"Retreat!"

Lang Jiping was incredibly frustrated.

He didn't even care about any ambush anymore, he just wanted to catch up and kill Chen Sansi to relieve his anger, but the problem was...

He just couldn't catch up!

If this continued, they would all end up dead under the enemy's arrows one by one.

At his command.

The surviving cavalry turned around and fled towards the outskirts of the Great Village.

However.

Something even more terrifying happened.

They...

Couldn't retreat!

Just as effortlessly as Chen Sansi had escaped previously, the White Horse easily caught up, following closely behind at a consistent distance of just 300 steps, while he harvested lives from atop his horse.

He seemed to be strolling leisurely.

But for the Nanxu Cavalry, it was a terrifying nightmare.

Unable to catch up, unable to escape!

They felt less like humans and more like prey trapped in the hunter's snare!

"General! We, we are surrounded!"

Under this dreadful pressure.

The Nanxu Cavalry felt as if an army was on their trail, and they started to panic, shouting, devoid of any will to fight back, only hoping to get back to the safety of the Great Village to save their lives.

"A bunch of garbage!"

"You all go to hell first!"

Lang Jiping, furious and ashamed, suddenly turned to face the White Swan Horse and charged at it, holding a Wolf-toothed Axe, choosing to cover the rear himself.

In doing so...

If the White Horse retreated, the rest of his men might live.

If the White Horse didn't back down, he could quickly close in and at least have a chance to fight, not dying cluelessly.

"Whiz——"

The Triangular Armor-piercing Arrow carrying the True Dragon Strength roared in.

Lang Jiping didn't dare to underestimate his enemy and almost used all his strength to smash at the incoming arrow, blocking it, but under the intense impact, his warhorse seemed to struggle to cope, rearing up on its front legs.

Then another arrow came, this one directly claiming the life of his warhorse.
