Volume 1, Chapter 119: The Great Defeat of the Xiongnu

The head of the Tianji Sect was always paying attention to the battlefield, especially Yang Wudi.

This was the best way to give the three khans advice.

Therefore, he listened to every word of Yang Wudi.

He was actually deceived by Yang Wudi!

He originally thought that Honghua City had no power to resist, but suddenly countless boulders rolled down from above, and kerosene was also poured down. After the kerosene was ignited, the entire city wall felt like it would burn.

Countless Xiongnu people were killed by falling rocks and burned by flames.

Screams came one after another.

Suddenly, the Xiongnu suffered heavy losses.

"Damn it, damn it, Yang Wudi actually fooled us!"

The head of the Tianji Sect didn't understand now that Yang Wudi was just pretending.

Yang Wudi even deceived his 10,000 generals just to make him believe that Honghua City was already short of food and grass.

But who would have thought that Yang Wudi actually prepared this elite force.

The Xiongnu suffered a big loss this time!

They also thought that it would be the same as the last siege, where the enemy had no power to fight back, so they basically did not defend.

But after everyone squeezed under the city wall, the rolling stones and kerosene that fell from above caused them huge casualties.

What was even more terrifying was that the Huns were suddenly confused by such an attack, and many people in the front row ran back, causing serious crowding and trampling.

Just in this sudden moment, the Huns lost thousands of people.

The faces of the three Khans of the Huns changed drastically. This was completely different from what they expected. They turned back and looked at the head of the Tianji Sect and asked coldly: "What is going on?"

"Didn't you say that they have no food?"

"Didn't you say that their soldiers are too hungry to fight?"

They pointed angrily at the top of Honghua City, and the vigorous soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty said: "What are these people?"

The head of the Tianji Sect was speechless.

How could he not understand that they had fallen into a trap!

They were fooled by Yang Wudi.

Even Yang Wudi knew the methods of their practitioners, so he deliberately showed a worried look. Damn it!

He wanted to kill Yang Wudi with his own hands.

But things have come to this point, and he can't retreat. If he doesn't instigate the three Khans to continue attacking Honghua City this time, there will be no such good opportunity in the future.

And the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty will hunt them down even more unscrupulously. They will have no foothold in this land of Shenzhou. There

is only this chance!

So the head of the Tianji Sect gritted his teeth and said with confidence: "Yang Wudi has hidden at most 10,000 or 20,000 troops. As long as we step up our offensive, we can definitely capture Honghua City!"

Haha!

The three Khans of the Xiongnu have lost their trust in the head of the Tianji Sect.

When they heard that he was going to continue the attack, they didn't accept it at the first time.

Even the fifth Khan directly suggested: "Two Khans, why don't we withdraw our troops!"

How can this be possible?

The head of the Tianji Sect was shocked and quickly advised: "If you don't continue to attack the city when you have such a good opportunity, if you retreat this time, you will never have the chance to attack Honghua City next time."

"Can you still unite with Beiliang and Xichu?"

"The most important thing is that after the failure of the attack on Honghua City this time, when the Great Zhou recovers next year, it will definitely sweep the grassland."

"If we don't fight now, it's like letting the tiger go back to the mountain!"

"Next year, maybe they can kill one of you."

"Next year, the people who attack you will not only be Yang Wudi, but also Yue Shenqiang and Qin Guogong."

The head of the Tianji Sect certainly knew that retreating now was the best choice, because they had fallen into the trap.

And the reason why Yang Wudi acted for so long was definitely not just to make the Huns retreat,

he must have some big tricks. However, what does this have to do with him, the head of the Tianji Sect? Even if the Huns were destroyed this time, he would not lose anything!

But if he took a gamble and the Huns destroyed the Great Zhou, it would be a comeback for him, the head of the Tianji Sect.

Therefore, it is necessary to trick the three khans into continuing to attack Honghua City.

Even if the Huns are completely annihilated, it is worth it!

For this reason, when the head of the Tianji Sect spoke, divine light flashed in his eyes, and

an invisible spiritual force penetrated into the minds of the three Huns khans.

Use divine thoughts directly to influence their judgment.

The three khans were originally hesitant, because as the head of the Tianji Sect said, this opportunity may never come again after it is lost.

And after letting Da Zhou recover, Yang Wudi will definitely avenge this arrow.

Then their days on the grassland will be difficult next year.

Just as several people were thinking, their spirits were disturbed by divine thoughts again, as if there was a voice shouting in their minds:

"Fuck him, what are you afraid of?"

"If we win, we will be the masters of this Shenzhou land!"

"Kill, kill, kill!"

"We will definitely win!"

The sense of crisis in their minds was immediately eliminated, replaced by passion and madness.

After the three khans looked at each other, their eyes burst into unprecedented fighting spirit. The fifth khan shouted loudly: "Let's fight, what are you afraid of?"

"We have 380,000 people. Even if Yang Wudi hides 10,000 or 20,000 elites, we can tire them out after a day of siege!"

The other two khans also agreed very much and immediately ordered the messenger: "Continue to attack the city. Whoever dares to retreat will be killed without mercy!"

The head of the Tianji Sect nodded and thought to himself that he would do it!

He looked at the battlefield in front with expectation.

After the three khans gave the order, the law enforcement team went forward and chopped off the heads of dozens of fleeing Huns, driving the people in front to continue the siege.

The battle became even more brutal.

The Huns stood under the city and shot arrows at the city. Many people continued to hit the city gates, while the people on the city confronted the people under the city and began to throw stones and pour kerosene frantically.

The death toll on both sides was increasing wildly.

However, Yang Wudi's side obviously had a great advantage. After all, they shot arrows from above, and they were wearing armor and protected by the city walls.

The casualties on both sides were as high as 1:20.

The war continued madly from morning to noon, for more than three hours.

The ground under Honghua City was full of corpses, and the soldiers were already exhausted.

At this time, Bai Qi finally moved.

"All troops, listen to the order, prepare for battle!"

He waved his hand and ordered: "Release the prisoners! Drive the prisoners to the front battlefield."

What's the point of releasing the prisoners? If it were me, I would have killed them long ago! ..... Chuluo Khan complained in his heart.

The more than 1,000 captured Xiongnu women were immediately released. There was no need for Chuluo Khan to drive them away. These women ran madly to the battlefield of Honghua City.

Because there were their tribes, their Khans, their men, and the hope of survival.

These Xiongnu women ran and shouted: "Khan, help me, there are enemies behind!"

There was a war in Honghua City, and suddenly a large group of women ran from the rear. The army was in chaos, and now the army was even more shaken.

In particular, when the Xiongnu cavalry heard these women still shouting that there were pursuers behind them, this caused chaos in the army.

Some cavalry in the rear immediately went to meet them. After all, these women were from their tribes, and some of them even knew each other.

Moreover, these women were definitely the most beautiful among the Huns. After all, the Huns would not snatch the ugly Hun women.

After the Huns cavalry received these women, they learned from them what had happened in the past few days.

"What did you say? All our food and grass were robbed!"

"We have no food?"

"Then why fight?"

The Huns cavalry were completely stunned. The horror of having no food, whether it was the Huns or the people of the Great Zhou, knew best such pain.

The Huns were more cruel than the people of the Central Plains.

In the years when there was a shortage of food, the Huns directly let the elderly choose to starve to death, just to leave more food, so that the young and strong people could survive, and thus make the entire tribe stronger.

They valued food and women the most.

Hearing that there was no food, the Huns cavalry panicked. Such news spread from one to ten, and soon spread among the Huns' army.

They had no food, and now the food in the rear had been robbed. All the Huns cavalry were filled with fear and worry.

The army was in turmoil.

Many people stopped following the order to attack the city and thought about how to retreat back to the grassland.

The Xiongnu Khan was sweating profusely and shouted:

"Don't believe them, we still have food!"

"As long as we conquer Honghua City, we will have endless food!"

The Xiongnu Khan roared again and again, trying to suppress those who spread the news in the army, but it was too late now.

Even if they killed one or two people, they could not stop the spread of the news.

"No more fighting, no more fighting,"

"We want to go home!"

"We don't want to die here, and we don't want to starve to death!"

The Xiongnu people could not bear such torture, and such emotions exploded directly in the Xiongnu camp, and the formation began to disintegrate.

The number of people who disobeyed orders was increasing wildly.

Some people even began to fight against the Xiongnu cavalry who were enforcing the law. When they saw them coming, they directly picked up scimitars and pointed them at them.

The riots began to escalate...

The face of the head of the Tianji Sect changed drastically. At the beginning, he could still use his mental power to influence some people, but as the number of rioters increased, he felt a sharp pain in his head.

Even if all the mental power is released, it is impossible to affect the 380,000 troops!

It's over, everything is over!

What a terrible plan!

The head of the Tianji Sect had bloodshot eyes and could only watch the situation continue to develop in an uncontrollable direction.

In the distance, Chuluo Khan was stunned.

"Fuck! This is how the captives are used. Is this the art of war?"

He really learned something new.

Sure enough, these Xiongnu women are still very useful.

At this moment.

Bai Qi raised the Fang Tian Huaji and roared: "All troops, listen to the order, charge!"

The dull horn sounded.

Yang Paifeng, Dazhuang, and Chuluo Khan all drew their weapons and roared at their subordinates: "Charge, charge!"

Boom boom boom!

25,000 cavalry came out in full force and rushed out directly from the rear.

The ground trampled by the war horses rumbled.

The sound of shouting and killing went straight to the sky.

They were like a sharp knife, stabbing fiercely into the waist of the Xiongnu Khan coalition from the rear.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"

The cavalrymen of the three Hun Khans shouted frantically. How could there be a cavalry in the rear?

Moreover, this cavalry was full of fighting spirit and was not easy to mess with.

At this moment, Yang Wudi on the wall of Honghua City also beat the war drum, waved his hand, and roared: "Open the city gate, the whole army will attack!"

With his order, the gate of Honghua City was opened directly.

As soon as the door was opened, rows of archers appeared behind the door.

Crossbows shot wildly like rain, and those Huns who were still hitting the city gate fell down one by one like wheat being cut.

Although these soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty were starving, the crossbow arrows could be used as long as a few people worked together to string them.

Therefore, the soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty issued crossbows to all the soldiers who could not go out of the city to fight, and they had the bowstrings strung in advance, just for this.

After everyone shot an arrow, they immediately made way for the people behind to continue shooting.

Soon, a large area of ​​the Huns in front was cleared.

At this time, the archers retreated to the rear, and an elite cavalry appeared.

Although there were not many people, only 10,000, they were all wearing armor, holding the most elite weapons in their hands, and slashed at the Huns.

The Huns did not expect that the other side would dare to go out of the city to fight.

In addition, Bai Qi and others in the rear also killed them. Under the attack from the front and back, the Huns' formation was in chaos.

The three Khans felt bad when they saw this situation, but they also knew that the most important thing now was to stabilize the morale of the army and take steady steps.

Even if the other side had 20,000 or 30,000 cavalry, they had 380,000 on their side.

If they were in a melee, they would definitely have the advantage.

The third Khan shouted loudly: "Don't panic, don't be chaotic, separate two armies and go to meet the enemy!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Qi had already rushed over, aiming at the third Khan.

"Protect me!"

The third Khan instinctively shouted to the people around him, and his guards immediately surrounded him behind him.

But Bai Qi's speed was too fast. With a casual swing of the Fang Tian Hua Ji, all the people and horses in front of him were cut in half.

Since the upgrade of the Fang Tian Hua Ji, it has become even more powerful for Bai Qi.

The guards around the Third Khan took out their weapons and tried to hack Bai Qi to death, but Bai Qi swept across and smashed all the scimitars in their hands, cutting off their throats.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for killing an ordinary enemy, experience value +10]

[Ding, congratulations to the host for killing a general, experience value +1000]

.....

Bai Qi swung the Fang Tian Hua Ji and was invincible along the way.

The soldiers around were so scared that they retreated one after another, and no one dared to confront Bai Qi head-on.

The Huns were not as fearless as the soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty. When they saw Bai Qi, they stayed as far away as possible.

The Third Khan was the only one left in the empty front.

He was so scared that his face turned pale. He turned back and looked at the head of the Tianji Sect and said, "Save me, save me!"

The head of the Tianji Sect sighed. If he attacked Bai Qi now, he might be killed by the immortals.

The most important thing is that he also felt that there was a momentum that was not weaker than his in the sky above the battlefield.

It must be the offerings of the Great Zhou royal family.

"Damn it, these eunuchs who are lingering!"

The head of the Tianji Sect cursed secretly, then turned and ran. Only a fool would protect the Xiongnu Khan. His is more important!

Seeing this situation, the Third Khan was disheartened. His biggest backer was gone.

He was about to draw his scimitar to resist, but Bai Qi directly stabbed him with a square Tianhuaji, piercing his chest and lifting him up high.

The Third Khan's horrified expression froze instantly. Half a day ago, he was still full of vigor and wanted to break into the city and destroy the Great Zhou Dynasty.

But in just half a day, he was picked up on a horse.

He waved his limbs frantically like a drowned wild dog, but soon he had no breath.

The Third Khan of the Xiongnu, die!

[Ding, congratulations to the host for killing the Third Khan of the Xiongnu, experience value +30000]

Bai Qi laughed. It

was so cool.

He carried the body of the Third Khan and shouted loudly: "The Xiongnu Khan is dead, why don't you surrender?"

The soldiers under the Third Khan were so scared when they saw this situation that they had no intention of continuing to fight.

Moreover, they were exhausted and had fought for a whole morning. They were dizzy and hungry. Their Khan was dead, so why fight?

In an instant, all the people under the Third Khan chose to flee.

"Fight! Fight! Fight!"

Seeing this, the soldiers of the Great Zhou cheered excitedly.

Those soldiers who had no strength to fight shouted at the top of their voices .

For a time, the morale of the Great Zhou was at its peak,

while the morale of the Xiongnu dropped to the freezing point.

Especially the cavalry under the Third Khan, they took the lead in fleeing and broke up the formations of the other two Khans.

In order to escape, they even began to slaughter their own people. As long as anyone dared to block their way, they would kill them.

Just to get out of the battlefield as soon as possible.

Seeing this, the fourth and fifth khans cursed inwardly, fearing that Bai Qi would cause trouble for them, and immediately turned their horses and fled deep into the grassland.

The 380,000-man army instantly became a lost dog.

"Chase, keep killing!"

"Don't let them run away."

"Kill one enemy, reward one ounce of silver!"

"Kill ten enemies, reward one acre of good farmland, and be promoted to the first-level military rank!"

Bai Qi threw the body of the third khan on the ground, made a promise to the soldiers of the Great Zhou, inspired their desire to kill the enemy, and led people to chase frantically.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

The eyes of the cavalry of the Great Zhou were red when they heard it.

This reward was too rich.

They may not be able to buy an acre of good farmland after serving in the army for a year. General Bai Qi was really generous.

They immediately chased forward desperately. Seeing these Xiongnu cavalry, it was like seeing silver that made them run.

"Win, win!"

The tens of thousands of generals on the city wall waved their fists excitedly. Although they were so hungry that they couldn't ride horses or lift swords, they cheered heartily when they saw that the Xiongnu were doomed to fail.

"Kill!"

Bai Qi immediately took over the command of the cavalry coming out of Honghua City, led 35,000 cavalry, and began to frantically chase and kill the 380,000 Hun cavalry from behind
