Chapter 1639

Then, as long as they could hold onto this Da Qian army.

Once the Zhenyue King led his army here, they would surely crush the Da Qian army!

This Living Yama would still have to die!

But for now... of the thirty-six stratagems, fleeing is the best!

The Langya King took a deep breath, then quickly turned his horse's head and retreated to the rear under the protection of his personal guards...

Langya King City had been caught off guard and stunned by the gunpowder, so the army's morale was already scattered. Even with tens of thousands of cavalry, they hadn't launched a few decent counterattacks, and the fact that the Langya King had run away only accelerated the Xiongnu's defeat.

Soon, the battle ceased!

Gao Yang glanced at the sky and ordered.

"The whole army, quickly clean up the battlefield and act according to the established plan. Scouts, sweep fifteen miles in all directions, wearing compasses at your waists. If the situation is not right, report back immediately!"

"Half an hour later, when the bugle sounds, the whole army will retreat immediately!"

"Yes!"

Following Gao Yang's order, the entire Da Qian army moved quickly.

Not long after.

Wang Xiao stepped forward, his face full of joy.

"Report!"

"Reporting to the Prime Minister, our army launched a surprise attack on Langya King City; this battle is a great victory!"

"Roughly estimated, our army beheaded over two thousand three hundred enemies, and we also captured a few big fish!"

Speaking of this, Wang Xiao shouted to the personal guards behind him, "Bring them up!"

Following Wang Xiao's voice.

Soon, two Xiongnu elders were brought up.

Hearing this, Gao Yang looked over.

These two Xiongnu elders were about sixty years old, but their eyes were not as cloudy as those of ordinary old men; on the contrary, they contained a sharp light, looking quite extraordinary.

At this moment, Wang Xiao admired Gao Yang to the point of prostration. This battle was a complete victory, and he was stunned.

These Xiongnu were like paper, collapsing at a single blow!

Therefore, he didn't dare to keep him in suspense and hurriedly said to Gao Yang, "These two are the Xiongnu Left Great Commandant Luan Ti Wutu and the Right Chancellor Huyan Gudu!"

"In terms of status, their position in Langya King City is second only to the Langya King!"

While speaking.

Wang Xiao kicked one of the elders on the left in the knee and shouted sternly, "Still not kneeling to see the Prime Minister?"

The Xiongnu Left Great Commandant Luan Ti Wutu gritted his teeth, his eyes staring fixedly at Gao Yang. His expression was cold, and he said nothing, with no intention of kneeling at all.

"Damn it!"

Wang Xiao's temper flared, and he couldn't help it.

He was about to kick him again.

But Gao Yang stopped him, "Captain Wang, that's enough. If he doesn't want to kneel, then he doesn't have to. I have never been one to force others."

Wang Xiao was stunned, somewhat puzzled.

Chen Sheng, on the other hand, looked thoughtful.

The Xiongnu Left Great Commandant Luan Ti Wutu was also somewhat surprised. He had long heard that the Da Qian Living Yama was extremely tyrannical, but seeing him today, it seemed... not as rumored.

"Cut him down."

"A mere Xiongnu Left Great Commandant, not the Xiongnu Great Chanyu; there is no difference between bringing him back to Changancheng alive or dead."

Gao Yang said indifferently, his tone extremely calm.

Luan Ti Wutu widened his eyes, and he was stunned.

He just didn't kneel, and he didn't scold him, so he was just going to be cut down?

Wang Xiao suddenly drew his saber, a smile on his lips. He had just been startled; he wondered why the Living Yama had suddenly changed his nature.

This was the Gao Yang he was familiar with; this was the Living Yama he was familiar with!

"No!"

"Don't..."

Luan Ti Wutu panicked and wanted to beg for mercy.

The next second.

The saber light suddenly bloomed with a cold gleam, and blood sprayed like a fountain onto the face of the Xiongnu Right Chancellor Huyan Gudu beside him.

Gulp!

Huyan Gudu swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

He raised his head, his face covered in warm blood, looking at Gao Yang, who was riding on a tall warhorse, his heart trembling violently.

This person was truly the Living Yama!

Too brutal!

When Luan Ti Wutu looked at Gao Yang, Gao Yang also looked at Luan Ti Wutu.

Gao Yang's lips had just opened, and before he could speak, he heard a "thump"!

Huyan Gudu knelt on one knee, placed his right hand on his chest, and said respectfully to Gao Yang, "Huyan Gudu pays respects to Lord Gao!"

Gao Yang: "..."

Killing a mere Xiongnu Left Commandant was fine, but he had no intention of killing this Xiongnu Right Chancellor.

But he didn't expect that he had scared Huyan Gudu so much!

"I like smart people like you," Gao Yang said with a smile.

But immediately, his eyes looked not far away.

Not far away, Pu Duo was full of joy, and there was a woman and an eight-year-old child on his horse.

"Prime Minister!"

"Big fish, big fish!"

Before Pu Duo even got close, he shouted to Gao Yang.

"Looking at you, is this the Langya King's wife and son?" Gao Yang said with a smile, examining the woman and child on the horse's back.

The woman's face was slightly dark, but she was extremely well-maintained and looked quite charming. Just judging from her face, Gao Yang knew that this woman's status was definitely not ordinary.

In a place like Hexi, unless one was born into wealth, the skin would generally be extremely rough due to the erosion of wind and sand.

Pu Duo's face split into a grin, "The Prime Minister is truly god-like in his predictions; this is indeed the Langya King's consort and son!"

Although he had guessed it in his heart, hearing Pu Duo say it, a smile couldn't help but appear on Gao Yang's face.

Looking at it this way, the harvest from this trip was not small.

"Have you confirmed their identities?" Gao Yang asked.

Pu Duo said with a smile, "My Lord, rest assured. I am of Xiongnu origin; the hierarchy of the grassland is clear at a glance. How could I be mistaken!"

While speaking, Pu Duo lifted the woman's sable fur, revealing her delicate shoulders and the inner lining inside.

He pointed to the wolf-head and sun-moon pattern on the inner lining and said, "Prime Minister, please look. This sun-moon wolf-head pattern symbolizes the most noble person on the grassland. And this eagle-head hairpin—ordinary Xiongnu women can't even see it, let alone wear it. This person must be the Langya King's consort without a doubt!"

As Pu Duo said this, he also took off the eagle-head hairpin from the woman's head and said to Gao Yang with full confidence.

The woman: "..."

She stared at Pu Duo, gritting her teeth, wishing she could bite Pu Duo to death.

Huyan Gudu couldn't hold it anymore either.

He could understand being a traitor; after all, everyone has to eat, but he really couldn't understand Pu Duo's level of sycophancy; this was too much of a bootlicker!

Gao Yang smiled and said to Pu Duo, "For this battle, I will record a merit for you. After we return in triumph, I will petition His Majesty to confer a title of Marquis upon you!" ===== CHAPTER 1641 =====
