The one who came from the grassland was none other than Huo Qubing, who led hundreds of tiger and leopard cavalry on a guerrilla campaign across the grassland!
He gripped the plum blossom spear tightly in his right hand, and held the bloodstained head high in his left, shouting loudly:
"Your leader, Tu Yuchun, has been beheaded!!!"
Meanwhile, the more than three hundred Tiger and Leopard Cavalrymen beside them also shouted in unison!
Upon hearing this news, the retreating Hu cavalry immediately fell into chaos!
They were already routed, with nearly half of their men killed, and were now retreating in a panic, hoping to escape back to their base.
But now we see that Khan Tu Yuchun's head has been cut off. Doesn't that mean that the troops in the main camp have been annihilated?
"The Khan is dead! The Khan is dead!"
"We've fallen for their trap!"
The Northern Hu soldiers were all in mourning, and their originally orderly retreat route was now completely in chaos.
Tu Biyan's face was as white as paper, and beads of sweat the size of soybeans kept sliding down his forehead. Looking at that head, Tu Biyan felt extremely sad.
He originally thought that Qin Ze only had a few thousand soldiers, which was why he felt safe to come to Hurong Pass. However, there were still 15,000 men in the main camp, which could definitely protect the Khan.
But now his head has been chopped off, and in an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Tu Biyan's mind.
Since last night, people have been constantly raiding the military camp in the dead of night. At that time, he always thought that this was just a trick by Qin Ze to bluff.
But now that I think about it, the fact that the 2,000 cavalrymen sent out never returned proves that a large force had actually been lying in ambush on the grasslands.
While they led their main force to Hurong Pass, they launched a surprise attack on the main camp and beheaded the Khan!
Tu Yuchun finally understood!
This battle was a scheme within a scheme from beginning to end!
Although there are only a few hundred riders ahead, this must be a decoy! There must be a large force lying in ambush ahead!
With pursuers behind and ambushes ahead, Tu Biyan felt a wave of dizziness wash over him, and a strong sense of defeat welled up in his heart.
Finally, he was panting heavily, his face gradually turning red, the veins on his neck bulging, and his anger, which had been building up in his chest, finally burst forth.
He yanked the reins, forcefully turning the horse around, and roared, brandishing his long sword:
"Counterattack! Counterattack!"
"Avenge the Khan! Kill them!"
"Even if we, the warriors of the Northern Barbarians, die in battle, we will take you all to hell with us!"
Overwhelmed with grief and indignation, Tu Biyan had completely lost his mind and led the Northern Hu soldiers back to kill Qin Ze!
"kill!"
On the battlefield, the shouts of battle shook the heavens, and a new battle was about to begin on the grassland!
As Qin Ze watched the Northern Hu soldiers turn and charge, he felt no fear whatsoever; instead, he became even more excited. He licked his lips, feeling the blood flowing through his body heat up.
I'm afraid you'll try to run away. If you dare to fight, then let's fight!
This battle will leave only one side standing, and the victor will take it all!
As long as we can annihilate this group of Hu horses, any price we pay will be worthwhile.
With this victory, Qin Ze knew that the increase in points he would gain would be an astonishing number!
He roared:
"Kill them! Don't let them escape!"
With a roar, Qin Ze led his army like tigers descending a mountain, launching a final charge against the Northern Hu cavalry!
In the previous battles, Qin Ze's 15,000 cavalrymen had lost several thousand men, and now their numbers were only slightly over 10,000, while the Northern Hu army still had more than 30,000 men!
On the other side of the Northern Hu army, seeing them turn and attack, Huo Qubing's face turned cold. He casually tossed the severed head aside and led the remaining few hundred Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to charge to the side...
At this point, the two armies had completely clashed!
Grass clippings flew everywhere, blood splattered, and soldiers fell one after another, including Northern Hu soldiers, Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and Qin elite troops. The ground was already littered with corpses.
Warhorses trampled over the corpses, carrying soldiers from both sides in continued fighting. Some of the bodies on the ground had been crushed into a bloody pulp, and only the cold armor revealed which side had suffered the most casualties.
Tu Biyan was completely enraged at this moment, and the ferocity within him was unleashed. He had been constantly suppressed from the beginning, and now he was determined to fight to the death and make a name for himself!
He rode his warhorse, carrying a long sword, his fierce eyes searching for Qin Ze's figure on the battlefield.
Even if he were to die on this grassland today, he would still cut off Qin Ze's head.
Finally, he spotted Qin Ze fighting amidst the crowd, and suddenly roared in anger:
"Men! Follow me and kill the Prince of Zhenbei!"
As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of Hu cavalrymen followed and charged towards Qin Ze together with Tu Biyan!
By this time, the battle had been going on for an hour and a half.
Both Hu Mabing and Qin Ze's troops have been reduced in number, and their physical strength has also come to an end due to the intense fighting.
Tubiyan no longer cared how many men he had left. His only goal now was to cut off Qin Ze's head and avenge the Khan!
Tu Biyan led his cavalry in a reckless charge toward Qin Ze. They were still a hundred meters away from each other, and within that hundred-meter distance, a large number of soldiers were engaged in fierce fighting.
At this moment, Qin Ze was fighting fiercely with the Northern Hu soldiers, his attention completely focused on the enemies around him. His elite Qin warriors were fighting bravely alongside him, mercilessly reaping the lives of one Northern Hu soldier after another!
