With the fall of the Juyan Palace, almost all the palace maids and servants inside were slaughtered by the Xiongnu.

Soon, the Left Wise King led a group of Xiongnu people to the palace's treasury. All the Xiongnu soldiers, including the Left Wise King, stared with shining eyes at the mountains of grain, salt, and supplies piled up in the treasury.

"If a royal palace's treasury contains so much, the homes of officials and nobles must hold just as much!"

After the initial shock, at the command of the Left Wise King, troop after troop of Xiongnu cavalry stormed into the homes of officials and nobles, killing indiscriminately and looting whatever they could find.

As he watched cartloads of grain and supplies being continuously transported to him, the Left Wise King revealed a hearty smile.

With these food supplies, their tribe could not only survive the winter, but also use them to attract a large number of smaller tribes to join them and strengthen their own power.

It was already dark when the Left Wise King ordered his men to seal off the four gates of Juyan City, and then ordered the entire army to eat and drink to their hearts' content.

As night fell, while the people of Juyan City lived in fear, the Xiongnu people gathered in the palace were indulging in revelry.

The next day, the Left Wise King awoke from his sleep and walked out of the former palace of the Juyan King with great spirit.

Looking at his subordinates who had been waiting for a long time and whose faces were full of excitement, Zuo Xianwang also revealed a bloodthirsty smile.

Then the Left Wise King surveyed his troops and shouted, "Warriors, let your revelry begin!!"

"Long live the King!!"

The Xiongnu soldiers shouted "Long live the Emperor!" excitedly, then drew their scimitars, mounted their warhorses, and dispersed.

Soon, amidst the cheers of the Xiongnu and the screams of the Juyan people, a massacre centered on the Juyan royal palace began.

Countless Juyan residents were driven into the city square by the Xiongnu who broke down their doors, and then a cavalry unit charged at them, clearly using them as training targets.

Children, women, and the elderly screamed and scattered in all directions, while the Xiongnu rode behind them on horseback, constantly drawing their bows and arrows to shoot them down.

The Juyan people, who had finally managed to escape to the city gate, found that squads of Xiongnu cavalry were already waiting in full battle array. Before they could turn around and run away, they were killed by a hail of arrows and a charge that sent them scattering in all directions.

The tens of thousands of people in Juyan City were left with nowhere to go, their cries and screams reaching the heavens, and the shadow of death loomed over the entire city.

The streets, squares, and houses were littered with the corpses of ordinary people, and there were countless headless and dismembered bodies. For a time, the entire city of Juyan was like a living hell.

While the Xiongnu were wreaking havoc in Juyan City, dozens of spies from the intelligence bureau, disguised as refugees, had already spread the news of the Xiongnu's incursion into Juyan City to all directions.

Based on their vivid descriptions, most of the Juyan people packed their belongings and chose to flee south.

A small number of skeptical people secretly traveled to Juyan City overnight to investigate the situation.

When some people infiltrated to the vicinity of Juyan City, the Xiongnu cavalry at the city gate, the screams of the people in the city, and the smell of blood in the air all told them that Juyan City... was doomed!

The news caused an uproar. Without further hesitation, all the Juyan people packed their belongings and fled towards Zhangye and Jiuquan.

The massacre in Juyan City lasted for three days, and nearly 40,000 people in the city were all slaughtered without exception!

The entire city of Juyan was filled with a bloody atmosphere, and bright red blood flowed continuously in the streets.

Inside the Juyan Palace, amidst the pungent stench of blood in the air, the Left Wise King closed his eyes with a sense of enjoyment and took a deep breath.

A guard approached the Left Wise King and asked, "Your Majesty, now that all the Juyan people in Juyan City have been slaughtered, what should we do next?"

The Left Wise King opened his eyes, gazing southwards, his eyes filled with chilling murderous intent.

Then the Left Wise King said coldly, "Leave some brothers here to guard the supplies, the rest of you continue your southward march! They killed so many of our people, I will make them pay tenfold!!"

"yes!!"

The guards, their faces beaming with excitement, accepted the order and left.

Soon, the Left Wise King led the Xiongnu army away from Juyan City and rushed towards the south of Juyan. However, to their surprise, all the tribal villages they passed through were empty.

Looking at the tribe before him, which had been completely wiped out, the Left Wise King realized that news of his army's massacre of the city might have already spread.

So the Left Wise King gave an order, and the whole army began to speed up their advance. After chasing for two days, they finally caught up with a group of Juyan people who were fleeing south.

"The Huns are coming!!"

Upon hearing the commotion and seeing the Xiongnu rushing towards them from behind, the people of Juyan cried out in alarm and hastened their escape southward.

"kill!!"

After letting out a loud roar, the Xiongnu spurred his warhorse and charged forward without further ado.

Except for a few able-bodied men who managed to hide and escape, the rest of the elderly, women, and children were all slaughtered by the Xiongnu.

After collecting the grain and supplies carried by the Juyan people, the Left Wise King led the Xiongnu army to rest briefly before continuing their pursuit southward.

News of the Xiongnu's pursuit reached the ears of the Juyan people through the fast-running young men. Everyone disregarded everything else and hurried towards the Han territory.

Tam and the others, along with their families, were also in the fleeing group. When they heard that the Huns were less than a hundred miles away from them, everyone's expression changed.
