Chapter 156 Internal Strife Among the Xiongnu

"No..." The group had been away from home for four or five months.

On this vast grassland, it was cold and uncomfortable.

Many people became instantly motivated upon hearing that they had the chance to go home.

...

And at this very moment.

On Mount Langjuxu, north of the Xiongnu royal court.

Huo Qubing led 5,000 cavalrymen.

"Warriors, the Xiongnu royal court lies ahead. In this battle, we will annihilate them completely."

Upon seeing these Huns...

Huo Qubing and his men's fighting spirit was quickly ignited.

"Archers, prepare yourselves."

"Light cavalry will set fires, archers will hold the line, and heavy cavalry will charge forward with me."

"Listen up, everyone! We're going to sweep through this battle!"

“Each of you must behead at least ten people.”

"promise……"

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

Most of the people Huo Qubing brought were soldiers recruited from Peach Blossom Village and the three cities of Dragon City.

These people had seen Jiang Tian rewarding soldiers in Flying Fox City.

For each enemy soldier killed, the reward is one hundred taels of silver, ten mu of farmland, and one house.

If you can kill ten enemy soldiers, you will receive a thousand taels of silver, 100 acres of land, ten houses, an ox, and two young virgins.

"General, killing ten Xiongnu is not enough. I must behead at least fifty."

“I’m going to behead 100 of them. These Huns aren’t Huns at all. To us, they are just houses, oxen, piles of silver, and beautiful women.”

"Brothers, in this battle we will show the Xiongnu how powerful we are."

"Everyone, prepare to charge!" Huo Qubing pointed his Silver Dragon Reverse Scale Spear forward.

At that very moment.

The sound of war drums echoed from the Xiongnu royal court.

The sound of bugles also soared into the sky.

"Have the Xiongnu royal court discovered us, General?" asked one of the dozen or so personal guards who were probably by Huo Qubing's side, somewhat surprised.

Huo Qubing looked into the distance.

The Xiongnu were embroiled in internal strife.

"Haha, this is truly heaven's help!" Huo Qubing watched as the two groups of Xiongnu soldiers surged toward the center like a tidal wave.

Soon, the two groups of Xiongnu clashed.

Accompanied by the sounds of war drums and horns, both groups of Xiongnu people exerted all their strength.

Arrows rained down in an instant.

The arrows rained down on the positions of the two groups of Xiongnu soldiers.

Both sides went on a killing spree.

After a barrage of arrows, the two groups of cavalry charged quickly toward the center.

These two groups of cavalry were like two overwhelming tides.

They were unstoppable in their momentum all the way.

Soon, the two groups of cavalry clashed.

People were continuously being shot off their horses.

After the cavalry broke through, they turned their horses around again and charged quickly towards the enemy.

On the city walls of the Xiongnu royal court.

The Xiongnu Chanyu was so angry that smoke was billowing from his seven orifices.

"Left Wise King, I, the Chanyu, have never treated you unfairly, yet you have led a rebel army to attack me."

"Great Chanyu, you dog, you attacked my tribe when I wasn't paying attention. You slaughtered tens of thousands of my people."

You not only killed our people, but you also stole our things. Today, it's either you or me.

Upon hearing this, the Xiongnu Chanyu was stunned.

"When did I send anyone to kill your people? And I, the Great Chanyu, would never send anyone to attack your tribe!" the Great Chanyu roared angrily.

"Looking across this grassland, who has the power to wipe out my tribe? Who else but you?" After saying this, the Left Wise King pointed to the sky, "The Great Chanyu is watching what people do, and the Eternal Heaven will not let you go."

You are a vicious person who only knows how to kill your own kind.

The Left Wise King whispered to those behind him, "Aim at the Chanyu on the city wall. Whoever kills the Great Chanyu will be rewarded with ten thousand gold pieces and granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households."

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

More than a dozen powerful arrows were shot towards the city wall.

The Xiongnu Chanyu was unable to dodge in time and was hit in the arm by an arrow.

"Left Wise King, you despicable and shameless man, all you do is launch sneak attacks. Since you want to frame me, then I, the Chanyu, will show you my power."

On the city wall.

More than a dozen heavy crossbows quickly aimed at the Left Wise King.

"Fire!" With that command, more than a dozen heavy crossbow bolts flew swiftly toward the Left Wise King.

Upon seeing this, the Left Wise King quickly turned his horse around and galloped backward.

With a whoosh, a heavy crossbow bolt flew over and landed firmly on the horse's rump.

The warhorse let out a long neigh and collapsed to the ground with a thud.

The Left Wise King was thrown from his warhorse.

"Charge forward and kill the Left Wise King."

The Great Chanyu's troops surged forward like a tidal wave, overwhelming the Left Wise King's forces.

The two sides fought fiercely, going back and forth until it was dark.

People screamed in agony as they tumbled off their horses and fell to the ground.

The parade ground in front of the Xiongnu royal court was stained red with blood, and the air was filled with a nauseating stench of blood.

Jiang Tian's team had already charged over.

Jiang Tian was overjoyed when he saw the Left Wise King and the Great Chanyu of the Xiongnu fighting each other.

"Beat them all up! The more intensely you beat them, the easier it will be for me."

At this very moment, the sentries on the city wall had also spotted Jiang Tian's group.

"The Great Chanyu has a force charging towards us. There are quite a few of them, several thousand in total."

The Great Chanyu was shocked when he saw this.

Although Jiang Tian didn't have many men under his command, they were well-equipped with weapons.

Although Jiang Tian's troops were far from the Xiongnu royal court, the sunlight reflected off Mingguang Kai appeared to the Xiongnu Chanyu like a series of suns.

"Sound the horn and order all troops to retreat into the city." The Xiongnu Chanyu was no fool; he didn't want someone else to steal his credit.

The Left Wise King stood below the city wall, completely unaware of the Jiang Tian army charging towards him.

"Great Chanyu, you are still afraid of me after all." The Left Wise King perked up when he saw the enemy soldiers retreating.

"Charge forward, don't let them escape, kill them all."

A volley of arrows came flying in.

The Xiongnu cavalrymen who retreated into the city had no way to escape and fell to the ground one by one.

The men under the Left Wise King rode forward on horseback.

They raised their spears and launched a fierce attack on the fallen Great Chanyu's troops.

"Kill them all, don't let a single one go."

“You dare to kill people from my tribe? You’re asking for death.”

"Now you understand what price those who kill us will pay."

The city gates opened.

Only a few people evacuated into the city.

“Warriors,” the Left Wise King swung his scimitar forward, “their idea of ​​retreating into the city is nothing but wishful thinking, a pipe dream.”

"Charge into the city and kill the Great Chanyu to avenge the dead!"

The men under the Left Wise King galloped towards the city gate.

The Xiongnu Chanyu was furious when he saw this.

“Shoot them to death with arrows! These bastards followed that idiot Left Wise King in his rebellion. They are unforgivable and all deserve to die.”
