Countless soldiers died, fell behind, or went missing on the road.

"Daqiequ, this prince should never have been provoked in the first place!"

"It's all Yufulo's fault. If we had sent him to Shuofang properly from the beginning, we wouldn't have ended up in this situation."

Hu Chuquan looked annoyed; he already knew the cause of the matter.

If Yufuluo had sent Liu Weili out of the country and let him cause trouble in Shuofang County, Qiangqu and Yufuluo probably wouldn't have died.

More than 100,000 Xiongnu people will never forget it.

And he won't run away like a stray dog.

"Your Majesty, can't you see? He's here to exterminate our entire clan!"

"He doesn't even spare boys as tall as our car wheels, and you still expect him to live peacefully with us?"

Xu Bu shook his head. How could Hu Chuquan still not understand that this prince never intended to give them a way out?

"Ahead lies Manyi Valley. After we pass this point, we'll enter Wuyuan County. Hopefully, they won't dare to pursue us any further!"

"Presumably, the Xianbei army is about to march south at this moment."

Huchuquan angrily said, "That treacherous and cunning Tuoba Gao, it would be best if he and the Han army fought to a standstill."

"We'll come back stronger then."

Xu Buxian said, "Your Majesty, let's cross Manyi Valley first!"

Eighteen thousand Xiongnu soldiers then entered the valley.

The valley was eerily quiet; not even a single bird could be seen.

Xu Buxian's right eyelid kept twitching, and he had a feeling that something bad was going to happen.

"Your Majesty, we should be careful. This Manyi Valley is long and narrow, with towering mountains on both sides. If the Han people were to ambush us here, we would be in grave danger!"

"Hahaha!"

Hu Chuquan laughed wildly, "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"Does the Han army have wings and fly over our heads?!"

Before the laughter had even subsided, a sharp, piercing sound suddenly echoed through the valley.
