On the evening of August 16, a small group of cavalry entered the city from the Beiqing Gate of Ganyang City. At this time, the people in the city finally understood why the Huns stopped attacking the city.
This small group of cavalry turned out to be the family soldiers of the Rui Camp under the command of Cao Tingjin, the Grand Commander of Ganyang Protectorate. They brought exciting news to the military and civilians of Ganyang City.
It turned out that two days ago, the younger brother of the current emperor, Prince Yong'an Chen Su, led 250,000 Daliang imperial guards and suddenly appeared outside Shuoyuan City. In one battle, he defeated 200,000 Xiongnu cavalry.
Now, Prince Yong'an Chen Su has led the imperial guards and joined forces with the left and right guards of the Ganyang Army, and is rushing to Ganyang City for support.
Since reinforcements were about to arrive, the Huns outside the city stopped attacking the city, and no one mentioned the risky plan of attacking the Huns' camp at night.
Although it was Sun Hao who proposed the night attack on the Huns' camp, he was very happy that the plan could be canceled now.
After all, even if thousands of cavalrymen of the Ganyang Army attacked the camp together, the Yanyun Cavalry, Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, Xiliang Iron Cavalry, Black Armor Cavalry, Beiwei Cavalry and the Four Cavalry Groups would probably suffer very heavy losses, or even the price of the entire army being wiped out.
In the following two days, defeated Xiongnu soldiers from Shuoyuan City arrived outside Ganyang City one after another and joined the ranks of the Xiongnu Right Wise King Helian Ke, causing the number of combat-ready soldiers in Helian Ke's hands to increase to 450,000.
The seventeen Xiongnu Wanhu who besieged Shuoyuan City had a total of 200,000 people. Although they were defeated by the Daliang Imperial Guards led by Yong'an King Chen Su, even the Xiongnu Right Ren King was killed in the battle.
However, since the Xiongnu army was composed entirely of cavalry, the Daliang Imperial Guards were unable to effectively encircle and annihilate them, and eventually nearly 150,000 Xiongnu troops retreated outside the city of Ganyang.
Helian Ke felt that with the more than 200,000 Liang imperial guards disrupting the situation, it was no longer appropriate to attack Ganyang City fiercely, so he ordered to stop the siege.
But Helian Ke did not give up the idea of capturing Ganyang City. He believed that as long as he could defeat the more than 200,000 Liang State imperial guards outside Ganyang City, as well as the left and right guards of the Ganyang Army who escaped from Shuoyuan City, the Xiongnu Khanate still had a chance to capture Ganyang City.
On the night of August 18th, in a giant felt tent in the Xiongnu camp, Helian Ke said solemnly to the 49 Xiongnu commanders, "Everyone present here is very clear about the current situation.
In order to capture Ganyang City, I have decided to engage in a decisive battle here with the Liang Kingdom's imperial guards and the Ganyang army."
Among the seventeen Xiongnu Wanhu who were defeated by Yong'an King Chen Su, four Wanhu had died along with Xiongnu Youren King. The four new Wanhu in the yurt were just promoted by Helian Ke.
Wan Hu Qiu Linnan hesitated for a moment and said, "Right Wise King, I heard that the Liang Kingdom's Imperial Guards are Liang's most elite troops. Furthermore, they have the support of the Ganyang Army. I'm worried..."
Before Wanhu Qiulinnan could finish his words, Helian Ke interrupted him, "I understand what you mean, and I also know that the enemies of the Xiongnu Khanate are not limited to Liang.
But now, not only has my third uncle died, but we have also lost more than 100,000 troops. If we withdraw in such a disgraceful manner, how can I explain this to my father Khan?
No matter what, I must meet the Prince of Yong'an from Liang State!"
At this time, Sun Hao was at the main hall of the Sanshui Society, having dinner with his wives and concubines.
Zhen Luo, Cai Wenji, and the other eight concubines that Sun Hao forced upon him were all brought back to the mansion where the headquarters of the Sanshui Society was located.
Sun Hao also sent people to secretly bring back the large amount of gold, silver and treasures seized from Axier's home to the headquarters of the Sanshui Society.
Luo Xuan used chopsticks to pick up a piece of braised beef and put it into Sun Hao's bowl, "Husband, you need to eat more.
Now that there are ten more sisters, you will definitely have a hard time at night."
Hearing Luo Xuan's jealous words, Sun Hao smiled awkwardly and quickly put the braised beef that Luo Xuan had picked up into his mouth.
At this time, Zhen Luo, who was sitting next to Sun Hao, also picked up a piece of braised beef and put it in Sun Hao's bowl, "Husband, sister is right, now the eighteen of us sisters are counting on you!
You really need to take more care of yourself. If your health breaks down, it would be terrible if one of the sisters couldn't stand the loneliness and cheated on you."
There was a hint of sarcasm in Zhen Luo's tone, and it was obvious that he was targeting Luo Xuan.
Cai Wenji, who was summoned by the "Annual Signing System", has the same gentle personality as Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao.
However, although Zhen Luo is the most beautiful among Sun Hao's women, she has a very aggressive personality.
As a result, when Luo Xuan faced the ten sisters who suddenly appeared and set rules, Zhen Luo and Luo Xuan started arguing with each other.
In the end, it was Sun Hao who came forward and announced that Luo Xuan was his legal wife, Zhen Luo, Cai Wenji, Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao and Aimi were his co-wives, and the other twelve were concubines. This appeased Zhen Luo.
However, Luo Xuan and Zhen Luo were still fighting openly and secretly, which made Sun Hao, who was caught in the middle, finally feel the troubles of having many wives and concubines.
Luo Xuan was immediately furious at Zhen Luo's words and slammed her chopsticks on the table. "Fox spirit, who are you talking about?"
Not wanting to be outdone, Zhen Luo slammed his chopsticks on the table, "Old witch, who are you calling a vixen?"
Although Luo Xuan is only 26 years old this year, she is seven years older than Sun Hao. When she heard Zhen Luo calling her an old witch, it really hit Luo Xuan's soft spot.
Luo Xuan was so angry that she would have rushed over to attack Zhen Luo if Sun Hao and Emile had not stopped her.
While stopping Luo Xuan, Sun Hao winked at Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao and Cai Wenji, asking them to take Zhen Luo away first.
With Luo Xuan's skills and hot temper, Sun Hao was afraid that Zhen Luo, whose charm value was 99 points, would lose dozens of points.
After Zhen Luo was taken away by Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao, and Cai Wenji, Luo Xuan still complained to Sun Hao indignantly, "Where did you find this vixen?
Aside from being pretty, I don't see any other advantages in her."
Sun Hao smiled bitterly and said, "Sister Xuan, Zhen Luo is still young and naive. Don't bother with her."
Luo Xuan snorted coldly, "It's precisely because she's young and naive that I have to teach her some rules."
Seeing that Luo Xuan was still angry, Sun Hao immediately changed the subject, "Sister Xuan, do you know much about Prince Yong'an?"
Hearing this, Luo Xuan's tone suddenly became serious, "Husband, as far as I know, this cousin hated evil and hates corrupt officials the most when he was young.
There were countless corrupt officials whose property he had confiscated over the years. It was precisely by confiscating the property of those corrupt officials that he was able to expand the strength of the imperial guards in the capital area to more than 500,000.
This time he led the Imperial Guards to rescue Ganyang City. Although he was able to lift the siege of Ganyang City, I'm afraid that after the Xiongnu retreat, Ganyang City will experience a bloody storm."
