The soldiers guarding the city gate tower were all terrified when they saw Jiang Tian descending from the sky with hundreds of cavalrymen behind him.
They were all dumbfounded, completely at a loss for what to do.
At that very moment.
Li Guang and his men outside the city quickly fired arrows at the city walls.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Accompanied by the sound of arrows slicing through the air.
The unsuspecting Xiongnu soldiers standing on the city gate tower were hit by arrows and fell to the ground, some even falling off the city gate tower.
"Prepare to attack the city." With the defenders on the city gate tower doing nothing, Li Guang spurred his horse toward the city wall.
The area around the city gate tower was littered with stones and logs.
He rode his horse straight to the rolling log, and with a sudden push against the wall, he leaped into the air and onto the city gate tower.
at the same time.
One after another, grappling hooks were thrown onto the city gate tower.
Li Guang's soldiers quickly climbed up using the grappling hooks and the ropes attached to them.
More and more people jumped onto the city gate tower.
A fierce battle unfolded on the city gate.
The guards on the city gate tower were terrified by this point.
Most people were stunned and didn't know how to resist.
Li Guang and his men, each wielding a horse-slaying sword, unleashed a flurry of blows upon the unaware defenders.
The situation on the battlefield quickly became one-sided.
Huo Qubing knelt down with a thud: "My lord, why have you come?"
I came to see you.
"My lord, if it weren't for you coming today, this battle would probably have lasted a long time." Huo Qubing suddenly felt a lump in his throat.
"Alright, alright, get up." Jiang Tian stepped forward and helped Huo Qubing up from the ground.
"The city is now a sea of fire, and it is estimated that the Xiongnu Chanyu and his men have perished in the flames." Huo Qubing looked up and saw flames burning everywhere he looked.
"My lord, we have discovered that many Xiongnu people are fleeing towards the west gate."
"My lord, I'll go after them right away." Huo Qubing was about to take action as soon as he heard that the Xiongnu were fleeing towards the west gate.
Jiang Tian looked at Huo Qubing, who was drenched in sweat: "With the Xiongnu leaving the capital, they have no natural defenses left."
"We could wipe them out in no time."
"Capture all the Xiongnu people in the city, and kill all those taller than a cartwheel."
"promise……"
Those who followed Huo Qubing walked out of the city gate one by one.
Everyone was pretty much the same; they were all completely black.
"You people have done a great service. You can have whichever woman you fancy in the city, and take whatever treasures you desire. You can take as many cattle and sheep as you like."
It was always the Xiongnu who invaded the territory of the Xia Dynasty.
They burned, killed, looted, and massacred entire cities on the territory of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Today, Jiang Tian is going to reward these people properly. It's just a massacre of a city, isn't it?
What the Xiongnu could do, he could do too.
He can do what the Xiongnu can do.
It was all about burning, killing, and looting. These soldiers fought their way into the city and almost lost their lives.
They should be allowed to loot indiscriminately.
"Wow..." Everyone was thrilled upon hearing this, and they instantly felt less tired.
"Let's have some watermelon first." Looking at these people, who were covered in black skin, it was as if they had been fished out of a carb tank.
Jiang Tian prepared several hundred watermelons.
The watermelons were arranged neatly there.
Each person gets a watermelon, and each chilled watermelon weighs at least seven or eight pounds.
Many people simply broke open the watermelon and started eating it.
The sweet and crisp watermelon made everyone feel refreshed all over.
The shouts on the city wall grew fewer and fewer.
Jiang Tian held a bunch of grapes in one hand and a large slice of watermelon in the other.
"Li Guang, you're so slow! How come you've only just reached the city walls?" Li Guang was shocked when Jiang Tian appeared before him.
“My lord, I saw you descend from the sky just now. My lord is truly wise and mighty. I, Li Guang, have never seen a person as brave and resourceful as you.”
Li Guang's words were not flattery, but came from the bottom of his heart.
"Who is this guy?" Jiang Tian pointed at the Right Wise King.
"You scoundrel, I am the Right Wise King of the Xiongnu."
“Right Wise King, what a high-ranking official you are, what great power you have! Don’t kill him, teach him a lesson first, beat him until he submits.”
“You are…” Only then did the Right Wise King realize that the person who had just fallen from the sky was Jiang Tian.
"I am your nightmare, I am someone you can never defeat in this lifetime." Jiang Tian looked at the corpses scattered all over the city wall.
The fighting prowess of the Xiongnu people is self-evident.
But today they encountered Li Guang and Huo Qubing.
These two great warriors were able to exert an overwhelming advantage over the Xiongnu.
"Are you from the Eternal Heaven?" The Right Wise King knelt down with a thud.
"Of course." Since the Right Wise King mentioned the Eternal Heaven, Jiang Tian might as well play along.
"Are you an envoy of the Eternal Heaven?"
"Whatever you say." Jiang Tian handed the unfinished grapes to Li Guang. "Slap him a few hundred times first, then go down and eat watermelon."
There are many customs below, and each soldier will be entitled to at least half of one.
Li Guang rushed forward without hesitation and began slapping the other man's face repeatedly.
*Crack crack crack* And Guang Sheng was already hit with a sonic boom.
The Right Wise King of the Xiongnu did not dodge at all; he straightened his body and took the slap.
...
Early the next morning.
Jiang Tian returned to the military camp with several dozen men.
Meanwhile, Li Guang and Huo Qubing led their men to do whatever they pleased within the city.
Princess Xue'er rushed over and threw herself into Jiang Tian's arms.
"My lord, you leaped off the towering mountain last night, and my heart is breaking." Princess Xue'er cried loudly in Jiang Tian's arms.
"When I saw you jump down from the mountain last night, I fainted on the spot. If Sister Hongyu hadn't supported me, I would have definitely fallen to the ground."
Jiang Tian stroked Princess Xue'er's long, black, and shiny hair, then brought his nose close to her pretty face, inhaling her youthful fragrance.
"I already told you everything would be fine."
Jiang Tian picked up Princess Xue'er and carried her to the carriage.
Princess Xue'er buried her breathtakingly beautiful face in Jiang Tian's arms, feeling his pounding heartbeat.
...
The sacred site for the Xiongnu's worship of Heaven.
On the towering altar, more than a dozen enormous totems stood upright in the sky.
Human bones were scattered all over the ground.
Vultures flew in the air, and vultures and crows kept landing.
At this point, the Xiongnu Chanyu and his national advisor had lost interest in appreciating any of this.
"Great Chanyu," the Grand Preceptor pointed in the direction of the Xiongnu capital, where thick smoke billowed into the sky.
