Chapter 750

The fallen cavalry rushed over from all directions and divided and surrounded the main Huns who were foolishly ambushing outside the tent. The Xiongnu soldiers suffered heavy damage and many surrendered directly. Soldiers who fled and collapsed were trampled down without hesitation by the fallen army cavalry, and slashed by saber without hesitation.

Zhong Ting looked at all this, and the originally panicked mood became extremely calm. As long as reality emerges with certainty—no matter how disheartening it may be. He failed, completely failed. Not only did he lose to Luo Chen and Xu Da, but also to Yesuo. Jesso’s prediction was correct, he did not bring down the main body of the fallen army quickly. Of course, Jesso did not expect how powerful and terrifying the weapons of the fallen army were. Not only did he lose face in front of the enemy, but also in front of his own people, Zi Ah Zhongping, Eru, and especially Jesso. He will no longer be qualified to face the Xiongnu’s elders and folks. Now thinking of his arrogance at the Yinshan meeting at that time, his self-willedness, his own arbitrariness, Zhong Ting felt ashamed. It is no exaggeration to say that he buried the lives of 200,000 to 300,000 Xiongnu cavalry main force, thereby burying the lives of the Xiongnu grasslands. He is the sinner of the Xiongnu steppe.

Zhong Ting sneered, perhaps bitterly, with obvious despair. In the firelight, Erlu burst into tears: “General, what should I do?” This fierce general appeared so panicked and helpless.

Zhong Ting’s eyes became severe. He said coldly: “Why are you crying!” Then he took off his command saber and handed it to Erlu: “The soldiers who are still formed in the camp should immediately gather and retreat. There are scattered and chaotic ones around. The soldiers want them to follow you on horseback at once.” He forced the command saber into Erru’s hand. “Retreat immediately! Retreat immediately! Retreat to the back of the Yinshan Mountains! Go north!” He gave Eru a shove.

Erlu was a little confused for a moment, trembling and asked: “What about you? What are you doing?”

Zhong Ting did not answer, but ordered even more viciously: “Hurry up and execute the general order! I am here to guard!”

“General, let’s retreat together!” Eru said loudly. The artillery fire seemed to have just landed not far from the observation platform, and a huge explosion sounded. “Hurry up! Otherwise, it will be too late!” Saying that, Erlu grabbed Zhong Ting and wanted to drag him down.

That Zhong Ting was furious and kicked up fiercely, kicking Erlu directly off the stand and rolling down the steps. Erlu rolled down the steps for several meters, stood up staggeringly, glanced at Zhong Ting in the stands, and left crying.

The intensive artillery fire finally stopped, and the Huns’ camps were already full of fire. Illuminated the northern sky like day. Even small animals such as prairie mice can be seen running around in panic in the firelight. 133 The army that Eru barely gathered has fled in a panic. In the chaos, no one even noticed, and when they noticed, they thought it was a small army of troops fleeing. In fact, compared with the casualties and captured personnel of the Huns in this battle, the remnants collected by Erlu were indeed a small force. The fallen troops on all sides surrounded a large number of Xiongnu soldiers. They were surprised to find that this was the most captured enemy soldiers since they participated in the battle. It is indeed surprising that a large number of captures occurred among the brave Xiongnu soldiers, but this is the power of the psychological shock of artillery.

Groups of fallen soldiers surrounded the observation deck. Countless crossbows aimed at Zhong Ting on the stage.

Xu Da just watched from a distance, the dense torches below and the fire on the observation platform illuminated Zhong Ting’s face brightly. Calm, even a little contemptuous, extremely stubborn.

Zhong Ting calmly pulled out the waist knife and slowly placed it on his neck. The audience exclaimed, and some officers shouted: “Stop him!” However, Zhong Ting seemed to sneer and slashed the knife horizontally without hesitation. Drops of blood spattered, and the stubborn general fell to the ground.

Xu Da rode on the horse, looking at the still stubborn face from a distance, this face would not admit defeat for the rest of his life. Xu Da did not express too many expressions and words: “Bury it, no need to be special.” After speaking, he hit the horse and left. .

Chapter 182 Return to Wuwei County

After the fierce battle, Luochen fainted due to excessive blood loss. The surrounding generals and guards all screamed, causing chaos. The cavalry who were going to pursue Zhao Cheng also reined in their horses and returned to check the situation. Zhao Cheng and Shaha fled with two guards.

In the fierce hand-to-hand combat, the wolves lost nearly 20,000 heads, and the Huns were killed and wounded more than 10,000 people. Lu Bu’s army suffered more than 40,000 casualties, and the main force of Lu Bu’s army suffered a heavy blow.

Chang Yuchun, Lu Bu, and Yan Qing organized their troops to clean up the battlefield, and then led their troops to Wuwei County. Luochen’s wound was bandaged, and he was still asleep. Luo Chen’s injury and coma cast more or less shadows on this victory. In addition, Lu Bu’s troops suffered heavy damage. Most of these elites from the Central Plains were from the Guanzhong Iron Cavalry, and they would sleep forever in this arid desert. Lü Bu and the remaining soldiers will silently dig graves for them, and a huge stone tablet will be erected, which reads: The fallen troops of Guanzhong Iron Cavalry 30,000 people will be buried here.

The wolves organized themselves in an orderly manner and silently followed behind the cavalry. Most of the prisoners could only walk, and the troops moved slowly. Although it was cool in autumn, the heat in the desert did not diminish at all, and the wounded soldiers could not hold on.

Chang Yuchun felt some commotion among the captives, and he looked coldly at these Hun soldiers who sighed and walked slowly in the desert. The soldiers were apparently forced to surrender, and out of great compulsion. The sudden reversal of the wolves made them feel unconvinced. The reason why the fallen army was able to defeat them was not because of how powerful they were, but because of the reversal of the wolves, it was good luck. The scorching heat makes people irritable and adds to the resentment. Of course, the Xiongnu soldiers did not dare to do anything. After all, they were surrounded by more than 100,000 fallen cavalry soldiers. The blood on their sabres had not been wiped dry, and they had not yet calmed down from the deaths and injuries of their comrades. The murderous aura has not yet faded, as if at any time he can lift a knife to kill and return to the brutal state of hand-to-hand combat on the battlefield. Not to mention that there are more than 100,000 wolves behind them. They move quickly, and they don’t know their former “friends” of the Xiongnu soldiers at all.

Fallen dust wakes up at night. The army walked slowly and was stationed in the desert, surrounded by a great pile of flames.

“My lord! You’re awake!” Yan Qing stayed by Luochen’s side all the time, and was the first to notice that he was awake. Lu Bu and Chang Yuchun also gathered around, and the water was immediately handed over. Yan Qing fed the water from the kettle little by little to Luo Chen. Luo Chen nodded and tried his subordinates, saying that he was much better.

Luochen drank a bowl of rice porridge, and reluctantly ate a few pieces of meat, his face turned ruddy, and soon he sat up by himself. Yan Qing and others were relieved after this, but it was just that there was too much blood loss and weakness, and there was nothing serious.

“Where did you go?” Luo Chen asked.

“Probably tomorrow evening, you can reach Wuwei County.” Yan Qing replied.

“Don’t relax your vigilance just because Zhao Cheng was defeated by us.” Luochen reminded.

“The advance team has already been dispatched, and when they arrive in Wuwei, there is no problem with sending messages back. In addition, a large number of sentries have been set up along the way.” Chang Yuchun was worried when he saw Luochen, and hurriedly reported all the measures.

Luo Chen nodded and stopped talking. Chang Yuchun, Lu Bu and the others wanted to discuss the next plan with Luochen, but seeing that Luochen had just woken up, his physical strength was still very weak, so they kept silent. Only he lowered his head and thought silently.

“By the way, why are all of your senior generals here with me? The security situation outside… By the way, there are prisoners of war, how do you deal with them? These prisoners of war are more loyal to the grasslands, otherwise they would not be selected as prisoners of war. Wolf Legion rider, it’s not easy to deal with.” Luo Chen seemed to be quite worried about tonight’s defense, and especially asked about the prisoners of war.

“The prisoners of war have been separated into custody…” Chang Yuchun said, “It’s relatively safe. There are about 30,000 prisoners of war. We have arranged a dozen large fires and dispatched about 50,000 people. There is no problem.”

Luo Chen pondered for a while. “The number of casualties in our battle this time?” He glanced at Lu Bu, “Lu Bu, you speak first.”

Lu Bu on the side was unusually silent today. Seeing the lord calling his name, Lu Bufang raised his head and replied, “Nearly 30,000 people were killed on the spot, and more than 10,000 were injured.”

Luo Chen was stunned for a moment, he didn’t expect the casualties to be so large. After a long time, he said, “Is it buried? Has the identity information been confirmed? Why did you return so quickly? Didn’t you handle it properly?”

Yan Qing said: “Most of the identity cards have been found and have been handed over to the logistics department. The people were buried collectively, not mixed with the enemy troops, and they made a separate tomb with a large stone in front of it. I wrote Characters, I hope that there will be opportunities to repair them in the future, and the characters will also be engraved.”

Luo Chen nodded lightly and said nothing. “.’That’s right, Gray Wolf!” Luo Chen called out. The injured big bad wolf immediately got in from the outside and ran to Luo Chen’s side. “It can come into the tent in the future, don’t restrict it, tell the guards.” Luo Chen said while stroking the gray wolf’s fur.

“Go and spread the word, ask the wolves to go up, and watch the captives. If there is mutiny, you will be executed immediately.” Luo Chen said. Yan Qing just wanted to say “yes”, but then she thought, how to command the big wolf? He is not Luo Chen, as if he can communicate with wolves. Just as he was about to ask, the gray wolf ran out in a hurry. It turned out that the falling dust was an order for it. “Tell your people to evacuate. The soldiers are working very hard, and there are many wounded. You must rest adequately.” Luo Chen said to Yan Qing. Yan Qing just answered yes and went down to set up.

In the middle of the night, the cold is pressing, and the temperature difference between day and night is quite large. Yan Qing found a blanket to cover Luo Chen, Luo Chen (Li Nuo’s) was quite weak and fell asleep soon after. While he was sleeping, there were the voices of several generals and even the howling of wolves.

“The wolves have been dealt with! You can send some cavalry over there, no problem, don’t wake up the lord, he needs to rest.” It seemed to be Yan Qing’s voice.

“Only the lord can command the wolves! The wolves seem to be killing all these people… Now I don’t even know what the situation is, and the wolves are not my soldiers, so I don’t know how far it goes…” Chang Yu Chun’s voice was a little louder and a little rushed.

Luo Chen still sat up slowly on his side. When Yan Qing saw it, he hurriedly helped Luo Chen up: “My lord, the prisoners of war mutinied, trying to rush out at night, and now the wolves are dealing with them. We don’t know the specifics.”

The gray wolf beside him saw that Luochen was getting up, jumped up and down, and whimpered. .

Chapter 183: The Huns Captured

Luo Chen’s expression became focused, as if he could understand what the gray wolf said. After the gray wolf hummed, he honestly lay on the ground and waited for the next order.

Luo Chen didn’t speak, as if he was thinking silently.

A voice came from outside the door: “Report! Messenger!” “Come in!” Chang Yuchun said immediately. “How is your observation?” he said to the tall and tall young messenger.

“The wolves are killing everyone who runs around!” The messenger said loudly, as if reciting the text. “Now the captives are running around in panic and the wolves are slaughtering non-stop.”

“These wolves are really brutal…” Chang Yuchun muttered, and then glanced at Luochen: “My lord, what should I do with it? Are these wolves a natural hobby of killing…”

Luochen just shook his head: “This is what I ordered, I said, execute everyone who tries to mutiny…” Then he seemed to be thinking about something and didn’t answer.

“Continue to observe!” Chang Yuchun had no choice but to order the messenger. The messenger took the order and went out.

“It’s better to just kill them all…” Lu Bu, who was silent next to him, suddenly said. “These prisoners are hard to deal with, and most of them are diehards. It is definitely impossible to incorporate them into our army. If they are released, they will return to Zhongping, and they may even become homeless and terrorists, disrupting the security of Hexi.”

943 Chang Yuchun was a bloodthirsty person in history, but his reaction to Lv Bu seemed rather shocking. He was about to speak, but after thinking about it for a while, he seemed to think that Lu Bu was right, so he stopped talking and just waited for Luo Chen to make up his mind.

Luochen still didn’t speak, and even the gray wolf whined a few times, as if urging.

“Kill them all.” Luo Chen sighed and finally decided. The gray wolf heard the order and immediately got up and left. “Withdraw our riders to avoid accidental injury. The wolves can solve the problem by themselves.” Luo Chen said to Chang Yuchun.

“Understood.” Now that Luo Chen has made a decision, the generals will no longer discuss it, and everything can be executed according to the order. For so many people, one word of their own will cost them all their lives. Luo Chen’s heart was still a little heavy. He thought of the countless prisoner-of-war killings in history, partly for maintaining stability and partly for brutality. For the security of the west, this is the only way. Otherwise, as Lu Bu said, they would become vagabonds and exiles. These people are strong in combat. They have lived with wolves for several years, and they are quite brutal. For Hexi, it is a very scary thing. The feeling of falling dust (baee) is a little sad.

At this time, these brutal, murderous guys were panicking and terrified. Of course, the prisoners of war were willing to be prisoners of the fallen army, so they planned to organize an escape at night. More than a dozen fires formed a chain reaction, and groups of prisoners of war crossed the fire and rushed towards the dark field. It stands to reason that the sky is dark, and the prisoners of war are running in all directions again. The fallen soldiers should be overwhelmed. Unexpectedly, the wolves were guarding them. According to Luo Chen’s order, anyone who mutinied and fled would be executed. The wolves were on a killing spree, and they had better eyesight than the soldiers in the dark. Or the simple and deadly tactics, find the throat and bite through it. Huns soldiers fell to the ground in large numbers and died. Perhaps this dignified death aroused the anger in the hearts of these captives, and many captives even fought wolves with their bare hands. Of course, there are very few Wu Songs, and Wu Song still has a stick in his hand. The number of wolves is also far greater than the number of captives. The wolves suffered very little loss, but the Xiongnu soldiers bleed into rivers of blood.

After receiving the order to kill all of Luo Chen, all the fallen army riders who were beside him at a loss retreated to rest. The wolves swarmed densely around the field, and the slaughter began swiftly and deadly. This ordinary camp became a massacre ground for tens of thousands of Hun prisoners.

Early in the morning, the riders saw a slight smoke billowing from the captive camp over there. The blood had soaked the soil under his feet, eagles, crows, and vultures were circling, and the bony wolf was also probing from a distance. The morning wind blows, bringing a huge fishy smell, which is disgusting.

The wolves were already lined up, as if nothing had happened. Of course, this group of domesticated warrior wolves has been rigorously trained to form the discipline of not eating human flesh. All they do is kill people quickly.
