Chapter 230

Because these hundred thousand men almost only obey the orders of two people!

One is Facing Ying Su!

And the other is Han Xin!

Han Xin needs no introduction; this army was cultivated by Han Xin from the very moment of recruitment!

Is their loyalty even worth mentioning?

As for Facing Ying Su...

It is entirely because Facing Ying Su was willing to spend money on this army!

Other armies of the Great Qin receive less than twenty coins a month in pay and less than two shi of grain!

But Facing Ying Su's army receives one hundred coins a month and ten shi of grain!

After Han Xin mentioned this within the ranks, everyone was overwhelmed with gratitude toward Facing Ying Su!

Therefore, this army's loyalty to Facing Ying Su is extremely high!

And now, Facing Ying Su is not here!

This army only listens to Han Xin!

Even if Han Xin ordered them to die, they would not blink an eye!

So, within this army, Han Xin possesses absolute authority!

Even Wang Jian's prestige does not work as well within the ranks!

The crowd will only obey Han Xin's orders!

But... after the many generals withdrew, he alone kept Wang Jian and Zhou Yafu behind!

"After the main army deploys, you two will each lead three thousand men in secret to conduct close observation!"

Once these words were spoken!

Instantly, Wang Jian and Zhou Yafu understood!

They are still going to attack Hulun Grassland!

The reason for not issuing this order before everyone is the fear of leaking the news!

"Good!"

Both men were excited and nodded!

Then, the scene from before occurred!

But... as reports of no movement came again and again, Lu Wan grew anxious!

"We have already marched nearly one hundred li; if Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu is truly here, seeing us head north, he could guess with his buttocks that we are going to slaughter his Xiongnu people!"

"Could he be so ruthless as to watch his Xiongnu people die out completely?"

Han Xin's eyebrows knitted tightly; he had remained silent!

At this very moment, he could not help but doubt himself; was he being too cautious?

But quickly, he shook his head!

Impossible!

If Fan Zeng could lure Li Yuanba out by cutting off the grain supply route, he would certainly have set an ambush here!

Even if he did not set an ambush, during this period, I have been attacking the Hulun Grassland region, yet Chanyu Modu's great army has not made a single move!

Is this not strange?

"He must be here, he must be!"

Han Xin spoke!

At this very moment, he was immensely confident!

Afterwards, he ordered the main army to continue moving!

And just as this order was issued, suddenly, a black shadow rushed forward like lightning!

0... 0

Li Yuanba shouted, "He has come out!"

He said excitedly.

And Han Xin's eyes lit up brightly:

"Transmit my order; everyone turn around and kill back!"

He shouted!

At that moment, the entire army began to turn around!

Li Yuanba squeezed his horse's belly and was about to leave immediately!

But Han Xin stopped him at once: "Do not rush; you will go with the main army!"

He said, filled with immense worry!

He was truly afraid!

Because... he understood the intentions of that group of Central Plains experts all too well.

They came to kill Li Yuanba!

If it were a direct, head-on clash, he would not worry about what would happen to Li Yuanba!

But... Han Xin was also afraid of covert methods!

If Li Yuanba were to fall here... he was truly afraid!

And Li Yuanba trusted Han Xin immensely, nodding directly: "Alright!"

Then, he followed beside Han Xin, and together they turned back to kill toward that direction!

By the time they reached the swamp area.

At that moment, dense ranks of soldiers were marching out!

Han Xin immediately ordered, "In this battle, only kill enemies emerging from the swamp!"

"As for any enemy within the swamp, no one is allowed to charge in!"

"No one may charge into the swamp without orders; violators will be dealt with under military law!"

"Repeat it!"

He shouted, and at that moment, all the generals responded, "No one may charge into the swamp; violators will be dealt with under military law!"

Moments later!

Li Yuanba and Fan Kuai led the great army charging out to fight!

Li Yuanba took the lead, smashing one with each hammer blow, one with each hammer blow!

All the Xiongnu before him were like chicks, slaughtered indiscriminately by him!

Sometimes, when he got carried away with killing, he would even throw his hammer!

Straight into the crowd of people!

A divine strength of forty thousand jin!

Throwing that hammer had about the same effect as throwing a dump truck!

Whoosh— a huge swath!

At least dozens, at most over a hundred, were directly smashed into meat paste by him!

Terrifying to the extreme!

In just one double-hour, the battle ended!

Gazing at the corpses before them, the generals around Han Xin were extremely satisfied!

Han Xin, observing the situation on the battlefield, merely chuckled!

With his insight, how could he not see there was something wrong with the army charging out?

This tactic might work on others!

But he, Han Xin, does not fall for such tricks!

He was smiling.

But the next instant, he furrowed his brows deeply and began shouting at those nearby:

"Where is Li Yuanba?"

"Where is Li Yuanba?"

He shouted loudly!

At that moment, inexplicable panic surged!
