King Youguli was overjoyed to see the blazing flames burning at the city gate.
“These despicable Great Xia people think they are clever; they want to take advantage of our unpreparedness to launch a surprise attack on the capital.”
"Warriors, launch a counterattack and slaughter them all."
King Youguli took the lead, charging at the very front of the group.
Huo Qubing's cavalry was leaderless.
They couldn't break into the city and were attacked from both sides.
The rolling stones and thunderwood thrown down from the city walls made it impossible for them to advance.
"Brothers, we must not act rashly now."
"We must first defeat the invading enemy before we can rescue the general."
Otherwise, being attacked from both sides will not only fail to save the General, but we will also suffer heavy losses.
Huo Qubing's cavalrymen quickly realized that continuing the siege was not an option.
"Soldiers, charge forward and fight them to the death!"
"Soldiers, now is the time to make your mark! Draw your swords..."
With a command given.
Huo Qubing's men quickly brandished their sabers and formed an attack formation, charging towards the Right Guli King's troops.
The two sides clashed.
...
Li Guang, who was watching from a distance, was furious when he saw this.
"These bastards actually dared to slaughter our people indiscriminately."
"Brothers, follow me and charge forward."
"Kill all these Xiongnu traitors."
Li Guang drew his bow and nocked an arrow.
His light cavalrymen all drew their bows and nocked arrows, following Li Guang as they fired into the air.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
These arrows were shot upwards at a 45-degree angle.
After flying several hundred meters, the arrow plummeted downwards at high speed.
Puff puff puff puff...
Puff puff puff...
Arrows rained down in an instant.
These arrows accurately hit the Right Guli King's cavalry.
With a series of metallic clanging sounds, the Right Guli King's cavalrymen fell from their horses one after another.
Li Guang and his men began shooting arrows from 750 meters away, continuing until they were less than 100 meters away from the Right Guli King's army.
Four or five thousand of King Youguli's cavalrymen were shot dead.
"Draw your sword..." Li Guang roared, and he put away "Ten Thousand Miles of Clouds and Smoke".
All the cavalrymen put away their bows and arrows and brandished their sabers.
"Kill them all."
"promise……"
"Do not let any Xiongnu person go."
Li Guang's soldiers surged forward like a tidal wave.
Wherever the cavalry charged, the Xiongnu cavalrymen and their horses were crushed.
These Xiongnu cavalrymen, along with their horses, were hacked to pieces.
King Youguli was just excited, thinking he had the upper hand.
But in less than half an incense stick's time, the situation had completely reversed.
King Youguli was terrified.
"Warriors, follow me and retreat!" King Youguli brandished his scimitar and led his men to charge to the side.
"Don't let them get away with this." Everyone knows the principle of eradicating evil completely.
When faced with a drowning dog, the only option is to beat it mercilessly.
If we let these bastards off the hook, they will surely come back with a vengeance.
"We will advance and wipe them out completely." Li Guang and his men were well-trained, using sabers for close combat and heavy composite bows for longer distances.
Outside the capital, the grasslands were littered with the corpses of Xiongnu cavalrymen.
Li Guang caught up with the King of Youguli.
He could tell at a glance that the other person was a great general.
"You bastard, trying to run away?" Li Guang thrust his Silver Dragon Reverse Scale Spear forward, piercing right through the chest of the Right Valley King.
The man screamed and fell from his horse.
Li Guang used his spear to lift the body of the Right Guli King, and at the same time, he drew his sword and beheaded him.
"Charge back! We must wipe out all the Xiongnu cavalry outside the city in this battle!"
Li Guang led his men to quickly move to the right and outflank the enemy.
These cavalrymen quickly followed Li Guang, flanking to the right and returning along the original route.
When Huo Qubing's subordinate Gao Meng saw Li Guang, he rushed over and clasped his hands in a fist and pleaded, "General Li, please save my general!"
"Where is General Huo?"
"General Huo led 200 cavalrymen deep into the city and is still trapped and unable to escape."
Li Guang was greatly surprised when he heard this.
A towering fire had already broken out at the city gate.
The sounds of fighting filled the area near the city gate.
Princess Hanxiang could see everything clearly from the city tower.
She hadn't expected that the Right Guli King's army would be defeated.
Princess Hanxiang was furious: "Warriors, the Eternal Heaven is watching us."
"The Great Xia is an invading enemy. When have we ever been unable to defeat them even when they've pushed us inside the city gates?"
"Warriors, can you tolerate this kind of thing?"
Princess Hanxiang was furious.
"Intolerable."
"Kill all the invading enemies."
"Use their heads to offer sacrifices to the Eternal Heaven."
"Use their flesh and blood to nourish our grasslands."
"Charge up and kill them all."
These Xiongnu people believed in the Eternal Heaven.
They firmly believed that they would enter the Eternal Heaven after death.
Therefore, these Xiongnu people became exceptionally brave in battle.
"Kill them all! I'm watching you!" Princess Hanxiang roared.
Like a tidal wave, the crowd surged toward the city gate once more.
However, even if these Xiongnu people wanted to break in, it was useless.
Huo Qubing had already used the corpses of Xiongnu warhorses and their own people to build a two-meter-high defensive fortification.
For these Xiongnu people to reach Huo Qubing and his men, they would have to crawl over these corpses.
