The soldiers on the chariot were led by Qiu Dayu, followed by Xia Minhan, Zhao Jun, and others.
Qiu Dayu, also known as Timely Rain.
Not only Ling Qi, but also Ling Yun, Ling Zhi, and Captain Qin, including Liang Jie, all cast admiring glances at Qiu Dayu.
The soldiers of Dongjin, unaware of the true nature of the chariots, felt increasingly confident facing the enemy.
"Withdraw!" The confidence vanished from the man in blue's face.
If we don't retreat, are we just going to wait to be wiped out by these Dongjin troops?
The soldiers of Western Qin began to retreat, and even the armies of the other states began to retreat.
No one knows where the artillery will land next.
Facing those rows of catapults,
They were scared.
Gradually, the rumbling stopped.
Qiu Dafu and the old military doctor knew that they had won this battle.
Conversely, would their current location still be so peaceful?

On Qiu Yan's side, Hu Yanxun was familiar with the terrain, so he led the way.
It wasn't that Qiu Yan trusted him; it was just that the direction he walked was no different from what she remembered.
As they walked, the population gradually thinned out.
They arrived at a desert.
Qiu Yan lifted the carriage curtain and looked at the sky.
The road was extremely difficult to travel.
Vera and the others' camels, on the other hand, moved with ease.
Ap, Singh, and Tamu remained inside the carriage, while Qiu Yan and Qin Susu rode on camels.
"After sitting in a horse-drawn carriage for a long time, I found that riding on the back of a camel was quite comfortable."
Qin Susu squinted at the sun overhead, and the weariness on her face gradually faded.
Unbeknownst to her, the barbarian troops leading the way behind her were all staring intently at her retreating figure.
Qiu Yan nodded in agreement. She also didn't like staying cooped up in the carriage all the time; it was not only stuffy but also uncomfortable.
Huyan Xun, on horseback, turned to look at Qiu Yan, then slowed his pace to ride alongside her.
"Qiu Yan, riding a camel is so boring. You can ride my warhorse, and I'll give you the camel. How about that?"
Qiu Yan ignored him and quickened her pace on the camel.
Because of Qiu Yan, Ling Ba quickened the pace of the carriage.
Huyan Xun pursued them.
The horse, however, failed to catch up.
Qin Susu laughed heartily.
"Huyan Xun, your horse is no good. It's not even as good as a camel."
Let's see if he dares to praise his warhorse again.
Huyan Xun glared at Qin Susu.
He couldn't catch up, but he still refused to give up.
The soldiers behind him were running breathlessly, many of them falling far behind.
Not only the soldiers of Dongjin,
The barbarian tribes were in no better shape; they were covered in sweat and panting heavily from running.
As you walk further ahead, sparse figures gradually come into view.
Looking at the sky, it was already close to dusk.
The soldiers were panting heavily from exhaustion. It was only the first day of their journey, and their bodies were already struggling to keep up.
Ling Ba glanced at the camels in the distance, then waved to the soldiers behind him.
"Rest where you are."
His voice was like heavenly music.
Upon hearing this, the soldiers all sat down on the ground.
Because Ling Ba and Qiu Yan were in a hurry to get there, the soldiers were almost always jogging along the way.
Without sufficient stamina, they will find it difficult to persevere.
Having chased Qiu Yan all the way but still failing to catch her, Hu Yanxun looked dissatisfied.
He patted the horse's back, not forgetting to make a sarcastic remark.
"They've only gone so far and they're already breaking up. Men from the Central Plains are just no good."
"You're all set, keep going." Ling Ba spoke curtly, and Hu Yanxun's expression changed several times. He held back his anger and turned to instruct his men to rest where they were.
Looking at Ling Ba again, he had already lightly touched the ground and landed beside Qiu Yan.
