Chapter 237

In that instant, his eyes bulged as if about to burst, and he screamed with a heart-rending voice:

"Must kill this person! Must kill this person!"

Fan Zeng nodded as well: "Must kill this person!"

"Kill this person, and everything will be over!"

They shouted together.

They began to have people investigate the progress of the deployment of the experts from the Central Plains.

Was it truly secure?

As long as their killing move was properly deployed, Li Yuanba would surely die!

On the other side!

Han Xin and Wang Jian, on the opposite side of the swamp, saw all of this; they looked at each other, both utterly stunned!

Although Li Yuanba's battle record was magnificent, and although he had even more ferocious feats than this in abundance!

Yet... now, seeing the feat of killing fifty thousand people, Wang Jian and Han Xin could not help but be stunned!

One must understand, this was killing fifty thousand people in a swamp!

A swamp, this kind of place is a nightmare for all generals!

If one does not understand this terrain, the number of troops here cannot only fail to gain an advantage, but will instead be at a disadvantage!

It was precisely by relying on this characteristic!

At first, Han Xin had planned to seize the Hulun Grassland first, using this swamp to fight a beautiful ambush battle against Chanyu Modu Chanyu Modu Chanyu!

But ultimately, because their speed could not match that of the Xiongnu, they missed this place!

But now... Li Yuanba, alone, slaughtered fifty thousand people right here in this swamp that had already been occupied and understood by the enemy.

It really left them at a loss for words!

"Come back; along this entire route, they have not seen any experts from the Central Plains. Deeper ahead should be the ambush point set up by that group of Central Plains experts!"

"Hurry back!"

Wang Jian spoke, ordering someone to follow the trail of bones Li Yuanba had carved out to deliver a message to Li Yuanba.

And, to ensure speed, they ordered someone to ride Li Yuanba's Ten-Thousand-Mile Cloudy Shadow over there!

But... this horse recognizes its master!

Except for Li Yuanba, it recognizes no one; anyone who climbs onto its back will be thrown off!

No one present could ride it!

"My horse was bestowed by Your Majesty; it is faster than all your horses. Let me go!"

Lu Wan shouted, directly mounting a chestnut horse, and rushed toward that direction!

And within the swamp, at this very moment, Fan Kuai, while excited, was also persuading Li Yuanba!

To return immediately!

If he does not return now, he will truly face Xin's military law!

Moreover, even he could see that there must be ambushes everywhere ahead!

Even if Li Yuanba rashly charged in, he would likely die!

He kept persuading, but Li Yuanba's gaze was resolute!

He looked behind him, and then looked ahead!

He truly wanted to conquer this Hulun Grassland!

But... there were no longer any Xiongnu soldiers to scout the path for them.

As he hesitated, suddenly, Lu Wan appeared in the distance riding a fast horse!

From afar, he shouted to them: "Hurry, the Grand General orders you to return quickly!"

He shouted from a distance.

At that moment, Li Yuanba looked toward the front again, unwilling to leave.

He truly wanted to charge in!

But...

Look at Lu Wan, look at Fan Kuai!

He sighed for a long time, and ultimately turned back!

Seeing him turn around, Lu Wan could not help but breathe a long sigh of relief!

Good, good that Li Yuanba did not charge in blindly!

If he had charged in blindly, how could I explain this to Han Xin!

"Come, Brother Ba, ride the horse and hurry; Fan Kuai and I will cover your retreat!"

Lu Wan dismounted and handed the reins to Li Yuanba!

The reason for this was, on one hand, out of respect for Li Yuanba.

On the other hand, he feared Li Yuanba would not listen and charge straight in.

Li Yuanba was not polite either; he simply flipped over and charged toward the horse's back!

"Leave?"

"They... are leaving?"

In the distance, Chanyu Modu Chanyu Modu Chanyu, watching all of this from afar, was terrified and looked toward Fan Zeng!

Fan Zeng, watching all of this, was also extremely anxious, and roared at the messenger:

"Where are the Ju Zi? Are they not ready yet?"

However, the messenger standing before them was not the same messenger who had been scouting earlier!

He has not returned yet!

Facing Fan Zeng's angry question, he did not know how to answer!

Fan Zeng flew into a rage:

"What exactly can this group accomplish!"

In his anger, he cursed continuously at the experts from the Central Plains!

But... it was impossible to just watch Li Yuanba leave!

If he truly let him go, then the fifty thousand Xiongnu soldiers would have died in vain!

"Yu-er, at this critical moment, we must rely on ourselves!"

"Fortunately, I had Yu-er set up an ambush here long ago!"

"Originally, this was intended to annihilate Han Xin's hundred thousand strong army, but alas... it must be used here!"

Fan Zeng sighed and gave Xiang Yu a signal with his eyes!

Xiang Yu nodded, put his finger directly into his mouth, and blew a whistle!

And as his whistle sounded, in the blink of an eye, dense whistles echoed throughout the entire swamp area!

It was like some kind of command!

Instantly, the wild grass on the entire swamp began to dance wildly!

Fan Kuai sensed something was wrong immediately and pulled Lu Wan to start retreating along the original path!

But...

It was too late!

Just as he turned his head, suddenly, a hook-and-chain descended from the sky!

It forcibly wrapped around Fan Kuai's ankle!

"Ouch!"

Fan Kuai let out a loud cry and was directly tripped to the ground!

But this was not over!

In the sky, dense hook-and-chains all surged toward the three of them: Fan Kuai, Lu Wan, and Li Yuanba!

And as the hook-and-chains wrapped around, instantly, Lu Wan and Fan Kuai both fell to the ground, and finally, a tremendous force dragged them toward the distance!

"Ah!"

"Brother Ba!"

"Brother Ba!"

Lu Wan was terrified and started shouting immediately!

However, where was the need for him to shout?
