Fate ha...

Chapter 268 The Relic's Wishful Thinking

The bright red banner bearing the character "Han" and the gleaming armor they wore clearly told Reli that these were truly elite Han soldiers.

The soldiers of Sheli and the Northern Wuhuan were utterly astonished as they watched Huang Zhong and his men rushing towards them. No matter how hard they racked their brains, they couldn't figure out where this army had come from.

Seeing the Northern Wuhuan people fleeing towards them from afar, Huang Zhong and the Imperial Guards and Northern Army soldiers led by him all showed a hint of excitement.

Yes, it was excitement, as if what was rushing towards them was not the vicious Northern Wuhuan people, but one victory after another.

"Bo Gui, let's launch a joint attack on the enemy's central force!"

"good!"

"Shoucheng and Shengji, you two attack the enemy's two flanks!"

"no problem!"

Under Huang Zhong's command, Huang Zhong and Gongsun Zan's men gradually gathered together. Ma Teng led the Tunqi Camp to move towards the left flank, while Gongsun Du led the Yulin Cavalry to move towards the right flank.

On the other side, Huangfu Song's 5,000 Youzhou cavalry had completely defeated the infantry, while his own side had only suffered a little over 100 casualties.

Huangfu Song dispatched a cavalry unit to pursue the fleeing Northern Wuhuan infantry, while simultaneously glancing at Nanlou beside him and shouting:

"Have your men give chase immediately, and together with our reinforcements, launch a pincer attack on them!"

"Hehe~ Don't worry, Commandant Huangfu!"

Nanlou chuckled, then ordered his personal guards to sound the horn for pursuit.

At this moment, Nanlou also spotted the golden-armored cavalry that had suddenly appeared in the distance. In his opinion, Sheli was no match for that cavalry, and it would be most appropriate for his own men to rush up and reap the rewards!

Seeing the Southern Wuhuan soldiers rushing to catch up, Huangfu Song couldn't help but smile slightly. He then led his soldiers to follow behind the Southern Wuhuan and pursue Sheli and the others, but always maintained a 500-meter distance from the Southern Wuhuan in front.

"Lord Relic... what... what should we do?"

As the Han army clad in golden armor drew ever closer, Han Qing became completely disoriented. His face paled as he looked at the relic beside him, his body trembling uncontrollably. These people didn't even have leather armor; how could they possibly defeat the oncoming golden-armored soldiers?

"what to do...??"

At this moment, Sheli also realized that he was probably going to die here. Facing the Han army's pincer attack from the front and rear, even if he and his men charged forward at all costs, the pass in the distance made him give up the idea of ​​charging through. If this golden-armored cavalry could come from that direction, there must be ambushes on both sides of the pass.

Just then, a horn sounded from behind. Reli turned his head and saw that the Southern Wuhuan people who had just been fighting with him were also rushing over.

"Turn around with me and charge back! Even if I die, I will slaughter these hateful traitors!"

Compared to a frontal assault, Sheli felt that turning back would offer a greater chance of survival. Although there were more people behind them, they were still easier to deal with than Huang Zhong and his men charging towards them.

Most importantly, Sheli was very confident that he could defeat the Southern Wuhuan people in a short time, and then use the defeated soldiers to break up Huangfu Song's army formation. Only in this way could he gain a chance of survival.

Having made up his mind, Relic turned to his troops and shouted:

"Warriors! We are now surrounded in front and pursued from behind; this battle is inevitable! But... those traitors behind us are actually helping the Han people against us! They are more hateful and deserve to die than the Han people!!"

"What do you think we should do?"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!!"

Hearing Relic's words, the Northern Wuhuan soldiers successfully stirred up their hatred for the Southern Wuhuan people, and everyone raised their scimitars and shouted in unison.

"Alright! If you're a man, come with me and fight your way back! Slaughter all those traitors and show them that we Wuhuan people are not spineless cowards!!"

"Warriors! Follow me and fight!!"

"kill!!"

Immediately, the cavalry of the Northern Wuhuan turned their horses around and charged forward towards the pursuing Southern Wuhuan.

"Hehe~ This relic isn't too stupid! But he certainly underestimated me!"

Seeing that Sheli had suddenly led his soldiers to turn around and attack the Southern Wuhuan people, Huangfu Song, who was behind him, couldn't help but let out a cold snort.

"Hansheng! What's going on??"

Gongsun Zan was also taken aback when he saw the Northern Wuhuan people suddenly turn around and rush back.

In his mind, shouldn't cavalry charge head-on? Regardless of victory or defeat, that's the only way to have a chance of survival, right? What kind of crazy move is this relic suddenly making?

"They probably knew they were no match for our army, so they wanted to defeat the Southern Wuhuan people and then try to break through Huangfu Commandant's direction to escape south!"

After a moment's thought, Huang Zhong had a pretty good idea of ​​what the relic was planning.

The Southern Wuhuan cavalrymen in charge of the pursuit were astonished to see Sheli and his men suddenly turn around and charge towards them.

"kill!!"

With a roar, Sheli led his troops into the loose formation of the Southern Wuhuan people, and his soldiers fought fiercely with hatred in their hearts.

In just a few breaths, the Southern Wuhuan people responsible for the pursuit were scattered by them.

"Run!!"

Faced with the fearless Sheli and his men, the Southern Wuhuan people immediately lost their courage to resist, and turned their horses around and fled.

"Nanlou, are these your soldiers?"
