"Ah!" The second prince was suddenly startled. The deafening shouts and cries of killing around him swept over like a storm.
Dust was flying, and a solemn atmosphere filled every inch of the air.
Ahead, the trap set by the Huns long ago was looming.
The second prince was startled and immediately tightened the reins. However, if the cavalry lost speed, they would lose most of their combat effectiveness.
"Retreat! Retreat! Run to the back!" The Second Prince roared loudly, his voice echoing across the battlefield, sounding panic and despair.
After saying that, he led his personal soldiers to attack from the side.
However, the Hun cavalry would not easily let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Like a pack of wolves, they quickly surrounded the Second Prince and his entourage.
Fifty thousand cavalrymen were already a huge number of people, but the Second Prince created chaos by doing this.
Even the elite Da Gan cavalry couldn't find their way for a while.
They had no choice but to rely on their respective generals to start breaking out from all directions.
If the Second Prince could calm down and command the troops well, even though they suffered a defeat, the entire army would not be destroyed.
But at this moment, he was so panicked that he didn't remember any of this.
He had only one thought in his mind - escape!
However, escaping is not easy.
The Xiongnu king's target was the second prince, so how could he let him break out so easily?
If the second prince is captured, even if Da Gan sends a second commander-in-chief or appoints a new commander-in-chief.
It takes some time to clean up the battlefield.
In this way, the defeated troops of King Youguli would have time to regroup, thus completely eliminating the disadvantage in this battle.
Therefore, it was extremely difficult for the second prince to escape, as the clouds in the sky were already in chaos.
As time went by, the number of personal guards around the Second Prince became fewer and fewer, while the number of Hun riders gathered around him increased.
They surged in like a tide, surrounding the Second Prince and his entourage.
Even the two supreme grand masters following the second prince were in this situation.
In this continuous attack, it began to show signs of fatigue.
You must know that if your internal energy is not replenished on the battlefield, you will become weaker and weaker as the battle goes on.
The enemy's Supreme Grandmaster is in full health, and when you are tired, he will be able to kill you with one blow.
However, the horse under the second prince's feet can also be regarded as a divine horse.
The master level of a demon beast's cultivation and physical body far surpass those of a human master.
Even with one person on the battlefield, he can still gallop for a long time.
But the Xiongnu king was seen drawing his bow and shooting arrows on horseback with great force. Being a nomadic people, archery and other such skills were naturally easy for them.
With a "whoosh", the arrow pierced through the air and accurately hit the second prince's mount in the chaotic war.
The horse neighed and fell to the ground in pain.
The second prince did the same and fell onto the grass.
Suddenly, his whole body was covered with blood and mud, and he looked extremely miserable.
The second prince, who was a little dazed after being thrown down, struggled to raise his head, only to see that he was surrounded by Hun swords.
The Xiongnu king rode on his horse, his mouth wide open, revealing a few yellow teeth, and laughed heartily: "Damn the Second Prince? I invite you to my tent as a guest, so we can exchange feelings."
The Second Prince regretted it to the extreme at this moment. If he had listened to Xi Zhicai, he would not have ended up like this.
I should be celebrating my victory in the military camp, drinking and eating mutton, instead of being a prisoner here.
However, now that things have come to this, there is no use regretting.
Now that he was captured, the throne was really gone from him. Da Gan didn't need an emperor who had been a prisoner.
Of course, this is all wishful thinking and will fall into the hands of these people.
Whether I can survive is a question.
Seeing that the second prince had lost his mind and had no resistance, the Xiongnu king nodded and signaled his men to tie him up.
"Try to surround those fleeing cavalry." The Hun king ordered his generals.
The Second Prince has a maximum of 100,000 cavalrymen under his command, and the 50,000 in front of him are undoubtedly the most elite.
If they could be kept here, the Huns would be invincible.
But at this moment, when the Hun king wanted to give chase, a scout came galloping and reported with an anxious look on his face.
"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! Our rear camp has been attacked by an unknown enemy, and the leader appears to be Zhang Liao, the garrison commander of Lulong County!"
"Hmm?" Hearing this, a cold light flashed in the Xiongnu King's eyes. He asked in a deep voice, "How many horses are there?"
“I didn’t see it clearly, but when the enemy attacked.
The air was thick with smoke and dust, making it difficult to count. "There must be tens of thousands of them," the scout replied hastily.
The Hun King frowned. When did Dagan have so many cavalrymen?
However, this time, a large number of Xiongnu cavalry were transferred to the front line due to the ambush, so the rear camp did lose some defense.
It would be troublesome if those Dagan people burned their own baggage.
You know, even though it's spring now, there's no shortage of aquatic plants.
However, to feed 500,000 military horses, a large grassland is needed.
If there were no hay, it would take these riders an unknown amount of time to find grass.
How can we attack a city in a war without logistics?
The Xiongnu king weighed the pros and cons in his mind and decided that if he could capture the second prince, his strategic goal in this battle would have been achieved.
This fills the gap left by King Youguli, and gives me a chance of winning.
At this moment, the second prince was captured on horseback. He was stunned when he heard these words, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings. He did not expect that Zhang Liao would appear here.
