"As long as we can find His Highness, everything will be fine!
Just let Lei Ying, Lei Zhan and others prepare to attack. There is no need to destroy Lingshuang Kingdom.
Wait for His Highness to arrive, and let His Highness lead the troops to personally destroy them."
Lin Yue was about to completely lose her patience.
Although she had great confidence in Li Ye, she was capable of protecting her own safety by escaping alone.
But I still can't feel at ease without you by my side.
“Well, you guys continue the attack, and I’ll take my men to look for His Highness.
Just wait for General Zhao to arrive and let them chase after us."
Princess Ruyuan was also very worried about Li Ye's safety at this moment.
Made a decision quickly.
Lei Ying and Lei Zhan agreed, reorganized their troops and continued the attack.
The fleeing Ling Shuang army soon got the news.
The feeling is incredible.
"The Dayuan army is too arrogant to dare to attack us so blatantly.
Jane doesn't take us seriously!"
"We can't wait until night, we have to send troops to intercept them immediately.
I heard that wherever the reinforcements went, they would massacre all the people.
Our population is small to begin with, and if we allow them to slaughter us, I'm afraid our country will be destroyed."
"Fight them, as long as you rush up to them, you can defeat them.
We can no longer consider casualties at this time."
Many soldiers felt a huge crisis and asked to fight.
Anyone who is selected to join the army will be given a large piece of land.
Once you enter their country, you will soon meet their people.
If all the local people were killed, what would be the use of having a fiefdom?
You can't join the army and farm at the same time, right?
Not to mention that their families also lived on their fiefdoms.
To stop the Dayuan army is to protect your own property and family safety.
The leading generals had not expected that the Dayuan army would actually dare to launch an attack, let alone that the speed of the attack would be so fast.
The infantrymen rode on horse-drawn carriages at a very fast speed.
There is no point in delaying until the evening.
But he didn't dare to fight Dayuan head-on.
According to statistics, more than 7,000 people were killed or wounded out of the 50,000-strong army. If the fighting continued, they would probably be wiped out.
"We can't fight them head-on, just harass them as much as possible, we have to wait until night to fight them.
Otherwise, if we are all killed, how can we stop them?"
General Ling Shuang persuaded his men to harass the progress of the enemy army from a distance, using arrows to shoot down the carriages pulling the people.
But Dayuan didn't tolerate them and would immediately fight back with crossbows as soon as they appeared.
If there were people gathering in a group, they would mount their crossbows on their chariots and shoot them to death.
The Lingshuang cavalry suffered heavy casualties, with hundreds of people killed and wounded, and they dared not continue to harass.
On Zhao Wudi's side, he chased the enemy all the way.
Although there were tens of thousands of barbarian cavalry, Zhao Wudi had sufficient supply of crossbows.
As long as you catch up with it and keep it within the range, you can shoot it.
Originally, they just wanted to hold the cavalry at bay and wait for them to win the battle so that they could encircle the Dayuan cavalry.
As soon as Jie Yu approached, he was met with a rain of arrows.
With a huge advantage, Zhao Wudi ordered his soldiers to shoot arrows while rushing towards the enemy.
The crossbow arrows continued to fly.
Their armor and shields were no match for it.
They were shot to death one after another.
The frightened barbarian general immediately ordered his troops to flee.
But Zhao Wudi's men were so crazy with killing that the rear troops did not need any protection at all.
They chased and killed hundreds of enemy troops along the way, killing more than 20,000 of them.
After all the crossbows were used up, he led his troops back.
The remaining barbarian cavalry were all fast runners, and their war horses were of the best quality.
Zhao Wudi couldn't catch up with them in a short time, which allowed them to escape successfully.
The barbarian army was completely frightened.
Faced with a crushing military attack, they are no match at all.
Even when the Dayuan army retreated, they still ran for dozens of miles before stopping.
The horse's lungs are about to explode.
If they continue running, many war horses will probably be exhausted to death.
"What on earth is going on? How did the Dayuan cavalry's crossbows become more powerful?"
“I could defend myself before, but this time the crossbows were coming at me in overwhelming numbers.
Even if the shield is enlarged, it cannot stop it.
Even if a person could block it, the warhorse would still be shot and killed if it was not fully covered with armor.
Even if a warhorse is covered in armor all over its body, it will not be able to run fast.
How can we fight this war from now on?"
"This is terrible, truly terrible! We should report this to the king immediately.
To deal with them, you must have an absolute numerical advantage.
I hope the king can defeat the Dayuan court's army soon and come to support us."
"That's not right, didn't Lingshuang Nation say they could defeat the Dayuan army soon?
Why haven’t they come to help me even though I’ve been running away for so long?
Didn't they just abandon us after winning the battle?"
Many people are very skeptical.
I feel that the generals of Lingshuang Kingdom are not reliable at all.
The generals of the Barbarian Army were also very confused.
He had witnessed the strength of the Lingshuang cavalry with his own eyes.
Compared with the same number, the cavalry of Lingshuang Kingdom can easily crush them.
They are not even afraid of crossbows.
Logically speaking, dealing with infantry shouldn't be easy, right?
But they didn't help them as planned, which was a bit strange.
When you are in doubt.
The barbarian scouts came running over in panic.
"It's bad, General, the Lingshuang cavalry was defeated, with over 7,000 casualties and forced to retreat.
The Dayuan army is marching towards Lingshuang Kingdom.
It seems they want to attack Lingshuang Country."
Everyone present was shocked when they heard the news.
The Lingshuang cavalry was so terrifying that even the barbarians were afraid of it.
It is unbelievable that he was defeated by Dayuan.
"Did you see clearly? They are so powerful, how could they fail?"
"Look carefully, the Dayuan army used a large number of heavy crossbows, and even installed crossbows on carriages, so they could chase the enemy and shoot arrows.
The crossbow arrows shot out are thicker than my arms, and I can’t stop them at all…”
After listening to the scout's introduction, everyone looked at each other in surprise.
Fortunately, the attackers were the Lingshuang cavalry. If it were them, wouldn't they have been completely wiped out?
This battle is simply impossible to fight.
The barbarian general slapped his thigh and shouted, "The situation is not good, we must retreat quickly and tell the king the news.
We must prepare early. If they attack us, we barbarians will be unable to resist."
The others also woke up suddenly.
Everyone agreed to report the news as soon as possible.
They simply abandoned the Lingshuang army and retreated without a second thought.
General Ling Shuang finally waited until dark and saw Dayuan setting up camp.
Finally breathed a sigh of relief.
If you go further, you will come across the place where the people of Lingshuang country live.
Such a small city could not withstand the attack of Dayuan’s army.
He was determined to launch a surprise attack at night and wipe out the Dayuan army in one fell swoop.
Only in this way can the safety of the people of Lingshuang be guaranteed.
