These thousand Xiongnu cavalrymen never expected that they couldn't even defeat a hundred Han cavalrymen.

To their surprise, their commander of a thousand cavalry was going to abandon them and run away first.

Morale plummeted, and they scattered in disarray.

This scene left King Guli and his thousand cavalry commanders on the city wall dumbfounded.

A thousand Xiongnu warriors were chased and killed by a hundred Han cavalrymen as if they were herding a flock of sheep.

This is unbelievable.

"Your Majesty, this is outrageous! We must kill them, otherwise we will fear the Han army like tigers in the future, and how will we survive in this precarious situation?"

One of the thousand-horse commanders was so enraged that he chewed his teeth so hard they rattled.

Once upon a time, their Xiongnu cavalry galloped across the grasslands, invincible in every way.

Unexpectedly, they are now being chased and attacked by Han cavalry.

Their cheeks flushed and burned.

"We volunteer to fight; we must kill them to quell our hatred."

The other commanders of a thousand cavalry also shouted.

King Guli never expected that the thousand cavalrymen he sent out of the city would be so incompetent.

Seeing the angry looks on his men's faces, he said, "Send another thousand cavalrymen and make sure we capture them."

Then, another thousand cavalrymen, led by a centurion, charged out.

This time, when Liu Wei saw troops emerging from the city again, he abandoned the pursuit of the remaining thousand Xiongnu cavalry and instead attacked the thousand who had just left the city.

"Oh ho, you've got some nerve! Do you really think we're made of paper or clay?"

"Warriors, follow me! Kill them!"

The commander of a thousand cavalry raised his long sword high and let out a beast-like roar.

However, as expected, when the two armies clashed, Liu Wei and his guards once again relentlessly charged at the thousand Xiongnu cavalrymen.

In a single clash, over a hundred cavalrymen perished.

The commander of a thousand cavalry was shocked, and his imposing manner also diminished.

What happened today? Did we kick a hornet's nest?

Liu Wei led his guards in a fierce battle, leaving behind a pile of corpses. The Xiongnu people scattered and dared not approach.

"Your Majesty, we did not expect this Han army to be so capable. We should not provoke them."

"Forget it, there are only a hundred or so cavalrymen, let them pass!"

Seeing that two cavalry units had been dispatched and still failed, the other commanders of a thousand cavalry began to have second thoughts.

However, the old King Guli refused to accept this.

You were the ones who were clamoring to go into battle just now, but now you're the ones who don't dare to fight.

If the 10,000 Xiongnu warriors in Guluo City were frightened by a hundred Han cavalrymen, would they still be able to stay in Guluo City?

We might as well head to the desert sooner rather than later.

"No, if we let this cavalry get away with this today, we won't be able to stay in Guluo City."

"Furthermore, this cavalry is so brave and skilled in battle that it is definitely not an ordinary Han army from the Hetao region."

"I suspect there might be an important person involved!"

"First, surround them from a distance and use arrows to keep them at bay, preventing them from getting close."

"Find out exactly what kind of troops they are, and who their commander is."

Although King Guli was old, he had experienced many trials and tribulations.

After two rounds of fierce fighting, he quickly realized something was wrong and promptly issued orders to adjust the deployment.

The group of thousand cavalry commanders suddenly realized what was going on.

Before long, another commander of a thousand cavalrymen led a thousand cavalrymen out of the city and joined the two commanders of a thousand cavalrymen from before.

After he conveyed the message of King Guli, the two commanders of a thousand cavalry immediately gathered their remaining troops and, together with the commander of a thousand cavalry, surrounded Liu Wei.

Whenever Liu Wei charged at them, they would retreat or shoot him with arrows.

"Heh heh, it seems the Huns aren't stupid after all!"

Seeing that the Xiongnu cavalry had changed their tactics from their previous fierce charges to a different strategy, Liu Wei spoke to Wang Fangyi and Shen Lian beside him.

"My lord, before they can completely encircle us, let's quickly break through the gaps," Wang Fangyi suggested.

"We definitely have to fight our way out. Once we're surrounded, it won't be easy."

"However, we still need to lure them to chase us, so that we can create an opportunity for General Zhang Liao to annihilate the Xiongnu people in Guluo City."

Liu Wei, however, said...

"My lord, we only have about a hundred riders, while they have already sent out three thousand cavalry. It's impossible for any more cavalry to come out of the city," Shen Lian asked curiously. "How can we get them all out?"

Liu Wei patted his chest and said, "This is me!"

"My lord, what do you mean by this?" the two exclaimed in surprise.

Liu Wei said calmly:

"Now it is time to raise my banner and proclaim my name!"

"I have nearly wiped out the Southern Xiongnu people. The Xiongnu cavalry in Guluo City will never let my great enemy go."

"If King Guli hears that it is me, he will definitely send out a large number of troops to surround us and kill me."

Shen Lian and Wang Fangyi: "My lord, this is too dangerous, we must not do it."

Liu Wei's voice turned cold, his tone leaving no room for argument: "Do as I say!"

......

"What! It's actually Liu Wei, the King of Yunzhong, the Han prince who killed Qiangqu Chanyu, Right Wise King Yufuluo, and Left Wise King Huchuquan, defeated our 70,000-strong Xiongnu army, and sent men to massacre the Meiji royal court!"

The spies sent by King Guli were unable to find out who the leader of this group of Han soldiers was, or who the important figure they were escorting was.

But as they got closer, they saw the large flag that the other side had just unfurled.

Before they could even question them, the other side told them that the King of Yunzhong was there and that if the King of Guli opened the gates and surrendered, he would be spared.

Upon hearing this, the scout rushed back to the city and informed King Guli.
