General Cheng frowned, took a step forward and grabbed a trembling eunuch.
"Where is Wuhuan Khan?"
The eunuch was so frightened that he stammered and pointed in a direction.
"Escaped... escaped... just... just ran away through the secret passage in the north."
General Yuchi snorted coldly: "He runs fast!"
General Cheng released the eunuch and ordered the royal court to be sealed and the treasury to be inventoried.
A team of troops was sent to symbolically pursue the Wuhuan Khan.
Ye Chen had long anticipated that the Wuhuan Khan would escape, and they would not be discouraged by failing to capture him.
Taking over the Wuhuan royal court is of great significance, but this is not the ultimate goal.
…
A few days later.
The Wuhuan Khan led his disheveled troops on a difficult journey northward.
At this moment, he had long lost his former majesty. He was wearing ordinary herdsman clothes and his face was full of fatigue.
Days of running around and sleeping in the open air had left him physically and mentally exhausted.
But he didn't dare stop.
The road to the south has been completely blocked by the Great Xia Army.
His only hope now is the important city in the north, Beicheng.
There, there are 200,000 elite cavalry guarding the royal court.
As long as he could reach the North City and mobilize the 200,000 troops, he would still have a chance to return to the royal court and take back everything that belonged to him.
This idea supported him all the way north.
"Faster, faster!"
The Wuhuan Khan urged his equally exhausted confidants.
"As long as we reach North City, we will be safe!"
A spark of hope lit up in his eyes.
However, Ye Chen had already predicted this. The Wuhuan King would be disappointed, even collapsed.
A larger net had already been quietly spread on his escape path.
After a few more days of bumpy ride, the most important city in the north of Wuhuan finally appeared on the horizon.
"We're here! We're finally here!"
The Wuhuan Khan cried with joy and almost fell off his horse.
His close associates also showed their joy at surviving the disaster.
However, when they approached the city gate and looked up, the smiles on their faces froze instantly.
His eyes were filled with disbelief.
They saw that the flag flying on the high north city wall was not the flag of the Wuhuan Kingdom that they were familiar with.
Instead, they were the majestic dragon flags of Great Xia!
Fluttering in the wind, making rustling sounds.
"How...how is this possible?"
The Wuhuan Khan was struck by lightning and his mind went blank.
Why is the flag of Daxia hanging in Beicheng?
This is impossible, absolutely impossible!
He rubbed his eyes, suspecting that he was hallucinating because he was too tired.
But the Great Xia dragon flag fluttering in the wind is so dazzling and real.
At this moment, a figure slowly walked out from the top of the city wall.
Not someone else!
It was Wei Qi, the number one general of Daxia, who was supposed to be attacking Wutan City thousands of miles away.
Wei Qi stood on the city wall, looking down at the Wuhuan Khan and his entourage at the city gate, who looked like dogs that had lost their homes.
A playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He raised his hand and waved towards the Wuhuan Khan under the city.
“Yo!”
Wei Qi's voice came through clearly, with a hint of ridicule.
"Isn't this the Wuhuan Khan?"
"You must have been tired from traveling all the way here, right?"
"It's cold in the north. Would you like to come into the city and have a cup of hot tea and rest your feet?"
"boom!!!"
Every word Wei Qi said was like a heavy hammer, hitting the heart of the Wuhuan Khan!
Wei Qi! Why is he here?
Isn't he attacking the city of Wutan?
Could it be that Wutan City was also lost?
One terrible thought after another bit the heart of the Wuhuan Khan like a poisonous snake.
Wei Qi’s appearance here means that Wutan City has been lost, and Baturu is definitely finished!
It’s over, it’s all over!
His main army is gone, and the royal court is gone!
Now, even the important northern city of Beicheng has fallen into the hands of Daxia.
"puff!"
The Wuhuan Khan felt a sweetness in his throat and a mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out.
How could this happen?
Wei Qi looked at the Wuhuan Khan who was vomiting blood below, and his admiration for Ye Chen became even greater.
Wei Qi, after taking over Wutan City, did not stop at all and immediately followed Ye Chen's instructions before setting off.
He led the Great Xia cavalry, marched day and night, and arrived at Beicheng before the Wuhuan Khan and captured Beicheng.
Then, they waited here for the Wuhuan Khan to fall into the trap.
Sure enough, Mr. Ye was very good at predicting things, and everything happened exactly as Mr. Ye expected.
This Wuhuan Khan really ran headfirst into us foolishly.
"Wei...Wei Qi!"
The Wuhuan Khan's lips trembled, his voice was hoarse, and his heart was filled with despair.
He finally understood!
From beginning to end, his entire Wuhuan Kingdom was played around in the palm of his hand by that gentleman whom he had never met.
Lure the tiger away from the mountain! Besiege the point and attack the reinforcements! Sneak into Chencang!
Step by step, every detail is planned!
Terrible, so terrible!
The Wuhuan Khan immediately turned his horse around, bypassed the north city and continued north.
They fled towards the vast grassland further north. There were still some troops in several cities in the north.
All we need to do is gather the troops from several cities in the north and find a way to contact the millions of cavalrymen on the border of Daxia.
He could also recapture the royal court, recapture Wuhuan, and even counterattack Daxia.
He must avenge today's shame.
Watching the Wuhuan Khan fleeing in panic again, Wei Qi stood on the city wall and did not order a pursuit.
