Chapter 252

~6 min read 1,092 words

Seeing the enemy about to surround them, without the slightest hesitation, they turned and fled!

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

After these two had killed so many of their people, now that they wanted to run, how could the Xiongnu be willing to let them go?

In that instant, they all charged after the two to pursue and kill!

But... when the news that the army ahead had encountered an ambush reached Fan Zeng, Fan Zeng flew into a rage on the spot:

"What are you chasing?"

"They want to run; let them run!"

"A bunch of stupid pigs, can't you see this is a delay tactic to buy time for Han Xin's main army to retreat?"

"What does it matter what they do?"

"Charge!"

"Rush into Han Xin's central command tent, capture Han Xin alive, and cut off the heads of Li Yuanba and Li Cunxiao!"

"If possible, we can also capture Facing Ying Su alive and cut off Facing Ying Su's head!"

"Cut off Facing Ying Su's head?"

A huge crowd was shocked!

"Facing Ying Su... Facing Ying Su... Is he coming here?"

Chanyu Modu Chanyu Modu Chanyu said:

"I have always heard that since Li Yuanba left, Li Cunxiao has shouldered the heavy responsibility of protecting Facing Ying Su!"

"Now that Li Cunxiao has come, Facing Ying Su has most likely come as well; otherwise, without a master protecting him, he is too dangerous!"

Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly understood!

At the same time, all the experts from the Central Plains' eyes lit up!

If in this battle they could cut off the heads of Li Yuanba and Li Cunxiao, and take advantage of the momentum to kill or capture Xiang Facing Ying Su alive.

That would truly solve all troubles in one battle!

They were excited.

At this moment, there was no time to wait for the others to follow; one by one, they unleashed their ultimate lightness skill, or else fiercely slapped their horses' hindquarters, and charged forward!

Fan Zeng then ordered the main army to follow closely!

In short, completely ignore Qiao Feng and Lu Lu Zhishen!

At that moment, the main army completely ignored the thousand men led by Qiao Feng and Lu Lu Zhishen, charging and killing right past them in front of their very eyes!

And Qiao Feng and Lu Lu Zhishen did not linger in battle, nor did they pursue them!

Watching helplessly as all the armies charged in, they immediately lay in ambush nearby!

Because... according to Han Xin's argument, they would return!

By then, they would cut off this group's road back to the swamp there!

Coordinating with Han Xin's pursuing troops behind, they would leave them all there!

The great army marched powerfully, traveling at high speed all the way!

In the blink of an eye, they arrived twenty li away!

However... just as the great army arrived here, they heard shouts shaking the heavens from both sides!

Likewise, rows of flags were raised high!

Although they could not see exactly how many people there were, the posture was clearly that of a hundred thousand soldiers and ten thousand horses!

It was completely as if Han Xin's main force had arrived!

"Not good!"

"They have set an ambush here!"

Chanyu Modu Chanyu Modu Chanyu was greatly alarmed and lost his color.

But a huge group of experts was extremely excited!

They have set an ambush here?

That's even better!

If we kill them all right here, can't we capture Facing Ying Su alive?

They were excited and were about to charge out immediately!

But just then, Fan Zeng roared: "Hu Nao! Even if Han Xin is a stupid pig, he wouldn't do something like using one hundred thousand to surround two hundred thousand!"

"Do not pay attention to them; press straight toward Han Xin's main camp!"

"If my guess is correct, they have already started to retreat!"

"Pursue!"

"Pursue quickly!"

He shouted, fiercely whipped his horse, and charged forward at the head of the pack!

The crowd thought for a moment, and that made sense!

So, they simply ignored it and charged straight in to kill!

And their ignoring it made Fan Kuai extremely excited.

In that instant, he and Lu Wan actually led two thousand men to charge out.

Afterwards, they chased the rear of the Xiongnu army, killing wildly all the way!

When this news reached Chanyu Modu's ears, it made him so angry he was about to spit fire.

Two thousand men!

How dare two thousand men of the enemy chase after his twenty thousand and slaughter them at will?

"Chase back?"

"Annihilate them all!"

Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu was filled with boundless rage!

Fan Zeng hurriedly blocked him: "Do not pay attention; this is entirely to delay the main army!"

"Then... let the main army continue forward, leave twenty thousand men to ambush them, and then kill them!"

Fan Zeng said, "What if there are more ambushes ahead? Should we still leave twenty thousand men?"

"Leave twenty thousand here, leave twenty thousand there; in no time at all, the army will be tied up!"

"If Han Xin's main army manages to retreat successfully, that would be losing the big for the small!"

"Go!"

"Do not mind them!"

"Do not mind them at all!"

"Just go!"

He shouted, and Chanyu Modu Chanyu Modu Chanyu clenched his fist again and again; finally, he nodded and agreed.

At this moment, the main army continued forward.

And when Fan Kuai saw that they ignored them, at that moment, he became even more excited!

Two thousand men actually chased and slaughtered the twenty thousand-strong main army for ten li.

If Lu Wan had not pulled Fan Kuai and said it was enough, Fan Kuai felt he could have chased and killed for another ten li!

Finally, they could only watch helplessly as nearly two hundred thousand troops departed, heading toward the direction of the main camp!

Inside the main camp!

A short while later, the army finally arrived here!

And seeing the empty tents, Chanyu Modu let out a sigh on the spot:

"Too late! We arrived too late!"

"They have already withdrawn!"

He sighed as he spoke, and Fan Zeng roared in anger:

"Search! I do not believe that in such a short time, a hundred thousand troops could have all withdrawn!"

"Li Yuanba and Li Cunxiao both suffer from severe poison; the more they are jostled, the faster they will die!"

"I do not believe they could have withdrawn along with the army!"

He spoke in a furious voice.
