Chapter 1618

"I feel it too. This is no illusion; it is the sound of cavalry hooves trampling the earth, and the number is not small!"

The Xiongnu general also had an ugly expression, panicked beyond measure.

"Do not fall into chaos!"

The Gray Wolf King feigned composure, took a deep breath, and walked quickly toward the outside of the tent.

When he lifted the tent flap and looked forward.

The Gray Wolf King's face turned green instantly.

Within his line of sight, Da Qian Black Armor soldiers stretched out in an endless expanse, riding tall horses and holding sharp Mo blades, charging over at an extremely fast speed!

"Hiss!"

"It really is tens of thousands!"

The Gray Wolf King felt his scalp tingle, fear rising in his heart.

Beside him, a Xiongnu general spoke up, "This must be that Da Qian Living Yama without a doubt. King, the opportunity has arrived!"

"There are exactly tens of thousands of them, and the Living Yama is right there. The time to take the Living Yama's head amidst the ten thousand troops has arrived!"

The Gray Wolf King turned his head, his face full of shock.

Damn it?

He can take him on?

How much had this Yelu Rong just drunk to be able to say such a thing?

At this moment.

The Da Qian Black Armor iron cavalry had arrived!

That sound, sweeping across the entire firmament, resounded throughout the entire tribe.

"The Champion Marquis, acting under the Son of Heaven's decree, raises the nation's might to execute the barbarians!"

"Those bandits who dare to resist with arms shall be slaughtered!"

"Kill!"

Clatter!

The Xiongnu were caught off guard. Before they could form an effective resistance, they were slaughtered by the Da Qian elite led by Gao Yang!

"Kill!"

"Those who resist shall all be slaughtered!"

Gao Yang's expression was cold and stern. Protected by his personal guards like an iron barrel, he issued the military order without a hint of emotion. Behind him, the Da Qian iron cavalry charged out like tigers and wolves!

"Kill!"

"Kill the slaves!"

The Da Qian Black Armor soldiers charged and fought, with no fear of death in their eyes, only a longing for merit and silver!

The heads of these Xiongnu soldiers were all gleaming silver!

Especially the three hundred death-row prisoners, who were even more like wolves and tigers, fearless of death!

"Kill!"

"Kill the slaves!"

For a time, fresh blood sprayed.

The two sides engaged in close-quarters combat. As the Mo blades swept by, scarlet blood streaked across the sky. One by one, Xiongnu soldiers fell from their warhorses, collapsing to the ground as their lives faded away.

Almost at the first encounter, the Xiongnu were routed, unable to withstand the Da Qian offensive!

Xue Xiong heard "The Champion Marquis, acting under the Son of Heaven's decree, raises the nation's might to execute the barbarians," and his expression turned extremely ugly.

"Living Yama, it really is that Living Yama!"

"He didn't launch his troops from Shanglin County, but from Yanmen County, sneaking into Hexi silently. His... his true target is Hexi!"

Xue Xiong understood everything now, but it was too late.

The other Xiongnu generals were also panicked.

"King, let's retreat quickly. The situation is lost; these Da Qian cavalry are too fierce!"

"Indeed, in close-quarters combat, we have no chance of winning at all, and we were caught off guard. If we don't leave now, we won't be able to leave later."

Although the Gray Wolf King was extremely unwilling, he also saw the situation clearly.

At this time, beside the Gray Wolf King, the Xiongnu general Yelu Rong, who had previously said it was a great opportunity to charge amidst the ten thousand troops and behead Gao Yang, spoke up.

"A mere Living Yama, and he dares to be rampant?"

"King, you go first. I will go to charge the formation alone. If I succeed, I will behead the Living Yama and offer a great merit to the Great King. If I fail, I will at least buy the Great King a quarter of an hour for retreat!"

Once these words were spoken.

The Gray Wolf King was full of shock.

"Commandant Yelu, you..."

Yelu Rong, his face flushed, lifted a large saber and said with a calm expression, "King, after you are safe, I will kill my way out to find you, and we shall reminisce then."

After speaking.

He mounted his warhorse, carrying the large saber, and charged out alone, heading straight toward the front.

He let out a roar, like a lion's bellow: "I am Yelu Rong, Great Commandant under the Gray Wolf King, beneath Mount Canglan. Who dares to fight me?"

Yelu Rong held his large saber, his face fearless.

Xue Xiong, while fleeing, sighed.

"Commandant Yelu is truly the number one Batur under my command!"

Behind him.

Shouts from the Xiongnu soldiers rang out one after another.

"Commandant Yelu has challenged them to battle, he has charged into the Da Qian army alone!"

"Commandant Yelu was beheaded in a single encounter, his head has been cut off by the Qian army."

Xue Xiong looked back, the corners of his mouth twitching wildly.

But it was this glance back that caused him to lock eyes with Chen Sheng.

The look confirmed it: it was a big fish!

"General of the Cavalry, I have found a big fish, he wants to run!"

Chen Sheng shouted.

"Then what are you waiting for? Take him down!"

Gao Yang swept a glance, saying without emotion.

"Kill!"

Chen Sheng led his men and charged out.

Xue Xiong saw this scene, his soul nearly scared out of his body.

He accelerated his escape.

As Chen Sheng went to pursue, the main battlefield also drew to a close.

Although the Gray Wolf Tribe was a large tribe with thousands of cavalry guards, under the true elite of Da Qian, and being a surprise attack, they were simply vulnerable.

Soon, the Xiongnu cavalry began to rout.

Gao Yang watched this scene, his face showing no fluctuations.

Xiongnu soldiers were different from Da Qian's; they cherished their lives more.

Because in the tribe, once a Xiongnu soldier died, his wife, children, and all property such as cattle and sheep would automatically be inherited by other brothers in the family, or even snatched away by outsiders.

Therefore, when the Xiongnu fought, they often came and went like the wind. This concept also destined the Xiongnu to only fight when they had the advantage; if there were benefits, they would swarm, and their combat power was extremely strong.

But once the wind turned against them, they would cherish their lives extremely!

This is human nature!

Soon.

The battle ended.

The vast Gray Wolf Tribe was in a mess, with Xiongnu corpses everywhere.

At the same time.

Chen Sheng and Wu Guang also returned on horseback, with a middle-aged man on the back of a horse.

"General, our army has crushed the Xiongnu Gray Wolf Tribe, and we have also caught a big fish. This is the King of the Gray Wolf Tribe—the Gray Wolf King!" ===== CHAPTER 1620 =====
