"Li Guang, you leave 1,000 soldiers to guard the camp, and you lead your men to attack from both inside and outside. You must rescue Huo Qubing."

Upon hearing this, Li Guang quickly mounted his horse.

"Soldiers, today is the day to make our mark! Follow me and charge!" Li Guang pointed his Silver Dragon Reverse Scale Spear outwards.

Three thousand cavalrymen, clad in gleaming armor and wielding swords, mounted their horses and followed Li Guang as he charged into the distance.

...

The gates of the royal city slowly closed.

"You bastards! I haven't even entered the city yet, and you dare to close the city gates!" Huo Qubing hurled his Silver Dragon Reverse Scale Spear.

This Silver Dragon Reverse Scale Spear flew straight toward the city gate like a silver lightning bolt.

Most of the city gates were closed at this moment, leaving only small gaps.

This Silver Dragon Reverse Scale Spear pierced through the chest of a guard and flew backward.

Huo Qubing possessed extraordinary strength, and the Silver Dragon Reverse Scale Spear he fired directly pierced the bodies of three people.

"Soldiers, charge into the city!" Huo Qubing led two hundred men into the city, but the heavy city gates closed behind them.

At the city gate, a commander of ten thousand men led several thousand Xiongnu cavalrymen to block the way.

"That bastard dares to storm our city."

"Today I'll let you all die here."

"Warriors, kill them and you'll be rewarded with a fortune!" With that command.

These Xiongnu soldiers rushed over quickly.

Huo Qubing roared at the people behind him, "Slay the horse-slaying swords!"

The crowd formed a dense formation and rushed left and right through the city gate.

Although those Xiongnu cavalrymen were very fierce, Huo Qubing and his men were equipped with superior weapons and equipment.

The sharp saber could easily cut these Xiongnu people in two.

Huo Qubing led his men in a fierce battle, and screams filled the air.

Those Huns who stood in front of these 200 men were either killed or wounded.

"Release the arrows!" the Right Wise King roared. "Shoot them dead on the spot!"

“Lift up the wooden stakes and put them back into the doorway.”

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh...

A barrage of rockets hurtled towards Huo Qubing and his men.

Although Huo Qubing and his men were not afraid of these rockets, their physical strength was greatly depleted from charging back and forth near the gate.

"The soldiers tried to open the city gates."

"Let the people outside the city rush in."

Even if Huo Qubing and his men were incredibly strong, they were no match for the tens of thousands of elite Xiongnu soldiers inside the city.

Huo Qubing knew that if the city gates were not opened, his 200-plus men would most likely perish there.

At that very moment.

The Xiongnu soldiers carried huge wooden stakes and charged toward the city gate.

Huo Qubing was greatly surprised when he saw it.

These massive wooden stakes are extremely impactful.

Dozens of Xiongnu soldiers carried a wooden stake and charged forward.

The broadsword was completely ineffective against the massive wooden stake.

"Fire arrows...shoot them to death here." Huo Qubing could only use the enemy's corpses to form a defensive position.

At Huo Qubing's command.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh...

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh...

The dozen or so soldiers in front quickly drew their bows and nocked their arrows.

The powerful arrows were fired at the Xiongnu soldiers.

Caught off guard, the Xiongnu soldiers were shot down one after another.

However, the Xiongnu soldiers behind them picked up the fallen wooden stakes and continued their charge.

These Xiongnu soldiers were like a tide; as soon as one fell, another would take his place.

As one group falls, another group takes its place.

They are extremely fast.

In less than half an incense stick's time.

Before Huo Qubing and his men lay piles of warhorses and the corpses of the Xiongnu.

The corpses of these Xiongnu people were piled up to a height of more than one meter.

"Pay attention to defense, prepare to open the city gate."

At this very moment, the Right Wise King discovered that the Xiongnu soldiers inside the city had suffered a setback in their attack.

He had already estimated that Huo Qubing was very likely to open the city gates.

"We absolutely cannot let them open the city gates! Even if they do, we cannot let them out!" the Right Wise King roared.

"Throw all the rolling stones and thunderwood off the city tower and block the city gate."

"Yes, sir..." Upon hearing the order, the city guards quickly sprang into action.

The soldiers guarding the city threw rolling stones and logs down from directly above the city gate.

Soon, the rolling stones and thunderwood piled up like mountains at the city gate.

At this moment, even if Huo Qubing were to open the city gates...

They won't be able to break out anytime soon.

"Prepare the hot oil." Just then, Princess Hanxiang arrived with reinforcements.

"As soon as any soldiers of the Great Xia Dynasty rush out of the city, pour that boiling hot oil down from the city walls and scald them all to death," Princess Hanxiang said angrily.

"promise……"

On the city wall of the Xiongnu capital.

Dozens of huge copper pots were rapidly heated.

These dozens of huge copper pots were filled with boiling hot oil.

The Huns stared intently down below.

As long as Huo Qubing and his ilk dared to show their faces, they would pour boiling oil on them.

Huo Qubing and his ilk were either killed or wounded.

The Right Wise King's actions killed two birds with one stone.

This way, he could both stop Huo Qubing's soldiers from continuing to attack the city and prevent Huo Qubing from leading his men out of the city.

"You bunch of scoundrels, since you've come to the royal city to die, don't even think about getting out!" King Youxian laughed heartily.

Princess Hanxiang swung her scimitar forward: "Shoot arrows! Kill all those Xia people!"

“These despicable and shameless people of Daxia keep saying they will send a princess to marry my father. How dare they attack us! It would be an injustice if they were not killed.”

One rocket after another soared into the distance.

Those of Huo Qubing's men who had not yet stormed into the city were completely at a loss.

Everyone was stunned.

If they hadn't rushed into the city to rescue Huo Qubing, he would have undoubtedly died.

If they stormed into the city, they would surely suffer heavy casualties.

"Brothers, the general is inside the city. Even if we have to risk our lives, we must rescue him."

"Yes..." The heavily armored cavalry charged forward rapidly.

Upon seeing this, the Right Wise King was overjoyed: "Prepare all the hot oil, and on my command, prepare to pour it."

With a wave of his hand, the Right Wise King sent pots of boiling hot oil raining down from the sky.

Many cavalrymen were unable to dodge in time, and they and their horses were all drenched in the scalding hot oil.

Many people screamed in pain from the burns.

"Quickly throw torches at them!" Princess Hanxiang shouted.

Torches were thrown down one by one.

The scalding hot oil on the ground burst into flames upon contact with the open flame.

The cavalrymen, whose bodies had just been doused with hot oil, immediately burst into flames.

These people rode their horses around, trying to put out the fire.

However, it's simply impossible.

At that moment, another bugle call sounded in the distance.

King Youguli led his men and charged over.
