Chapter 351
He urged the Ten-Thousand-Mile Misty Cloud to ascend, intent on pursuing them upward!
However... at this critical moment, someone called out to stop him: "Li Yuanba, wait!"
He turned to look behind!
It turned out that, at some unknown time!
The hundred thousand troops led by Han Xin had arrived!
At this very moment, they had already formed ranks and were deploying at the foot of the mountain!
"They... are leaving?"
Wang Jian said anxiously.
However, Han Xin merely smiled, staring fixedly at the Xiongnu climbing the mountain in the distance!
It must be said that, in their flight for their lives, they were climbing quite fast!
In just two double-hours, these nearly three million people had actually climbed to the hillside several li away!
From afar, one could only see some black dots!
But... even so, Han Xin remained utterly unhurried!
And just as they continued climbing, suddenly, boom-boom-boom!
Countless snowballs began rolling down from the mountain peak once more!
"This... this is..."
At that moment, Fan Zeng and Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu were utterly stunned!
Because... an army had appeared on their mountain peak!
There were actually a thousand people wearing Qin Army uniforms here!
"They... when did they arrive here!"
Fan Zeng was immensely shocked, his expression overflowing with profound disbelief!
Indeed!
Just as they were about to reach the snow mountain, scouts had reported that Han Xin's army was still eighty li away!
It was estimated that they would arrive at the snow mountain at the earliest in two or three days!
Now, they had appeared right on their heels, which was already extremely exaggerated; how could they possibly have hidden an ambush here in advance?
Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu and many Xiongnu generals simply could not understand!
Fan Zeng pondered for a moment and said: "Hidden troops!"
"These are not troops that just arrived, but an army that was hidden long ago!"
"An army hidden long ago?"
"That is to say, Han Xin and the others knew long ago that we would come here?"
Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu was greatly surprised!
Although they had long planned to escape via this side of the snow mountain!
But... hiding troops here so far in advance is simply too outrageous!
Moreover, even more critically... someone from their side had already come to this snow mountain long ago!
Yes!
When Han Xin first began attacking the Xiongnu, Xiongnu people had already come to the snow mountain.
The reason they had not crossed the snow mountain for so long was that they were waiting for someone!
Once everyone had arrived, they would climb the snow mountain together!
Similarly, this place had long been occupied by them.
How could Han Xin and the others possibly bypass all the Xiongnu to send troops here?
"Then that means... even earlier?"
"Even earlier?"
"When was that?"
Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu was shocked!
Instinctively, he thought of the time before Han Xin attacked the Xiongnu!
Had he hidden troops here even then?
Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu felt it was utterly incredible!
However, at this very moment, he could not afford to think too much!
The posture of over a thousand people rolling snowballs downward was completely incomparable to the posture of the Eighteen Riders of Yan Yun rolling snowballs!
The scope was likewise beyond comparison with what eighteen people could achieve!
A thousand people, lined up in a row, could span thirty or fifty li!
Within such a vast area, it was all snowballs, along with stones and other objects rolling down!
Whoosh-whoosh-whoosh!
Dense and thick!
In that instant, many, many Xiongnu were struck by snowballs and rolled down the mountain together with the snowballs!
And if struck by a massive boulder, it would be even worse; no matter how many people blocked it, the person at the very front would certainly be crushed to death!
Along with a large area, even if it doesn't kill, it'll still cause abrasions!
And when they rolled to the foot of the mountain, awaiting them would be Li Yuanba's hammer and Li Cunxiao's Yu Wang Su!
Plus the slaughter of a hundred thousand troops!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The giant hammer smashes down fiercely!
Yu Wang Su wields it!
The Xiongnu are dying in agony!
In this situation, even Fan Zeng felt somewhat desperate; in his panic, he could only shout for Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu to hide beneath a rock to temporarily avoid the brunt of the attack.
Wait until their snowballs have finished rolling down.
Wait until their giant boulders have finished rolling down, then charge up!
"Hmm! We can only do this!"
Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu nodded and ordered everyone to take cover!
Yet... watching helplessly as the snowballs continued to roll down, Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu felt a pang of panic!
Who knows how many snowballs are up there!
His brows furrowed repeatedly!
However, Fan Zeng shook his head; there shouldn't be many!
After all... the rocks and snow up there are limited!
He made this guess!
On the other side, Wang Jian and Fan Kuai, along with the others, looked at the battlefield before them and were equally stunned!
When did these one thousand men arrive at the snow mountain?
It wasn't just Chanyu Modu Chanyu Chanyu Modu and Fan Zeng who were puzzled; even they were equally confused!
Because... ever since following Han Xin to fight the Xiongnu, they had never heard of such an order!
Everyone was utterly shocked!
However... Han Xin merely smiled and said nothing!
In fact, regarding the time these one thousand ambushers arrived at the snow mountain, Fan Zeng's guess was correct!
These more than one thousand men were indeed sent to lie in ambush before Han Xin attacked the Xiongnu!
But... there was one point he got wrong!
Which point?
Of course, it was still the timing!
In reality, the time these one thousand men arrived at the snow mountain was even earlier than he had guessed!
How much earlier?
Earlier than the main army had even set out!
Earlier than they had departed from Xianyang!
Even before Facing Ying Su's army departure ceremony had begun!
