Ying Yu and the 3,000 Great Qin Cavalry only chased for five kilometers before giving up.
It wasn't that he didn't want to continue chasing, but the soldiers around him were exhausted.
After a long journey, coupled with the heavy equipment of the heavy cavalry, they had just fought a huge battle. At this moment, they were exhausted and had no strength to chase.
"Bring our brother's corpse back and give him a proper burial. The army will enter Feng An City to rest!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and led the Great Qin Cavalry back.
"Yes."
Huo Xing went forward to receive the order and collected the bodies of the soldiers who had died along the way.
"Young Master, there is no need to be sad."
A Qin Feng soldier said,"We were born to fight. Dying on the battlefield is the best destination for us.”
"Yes." Ying Yu nodded and didn't say anything.
At this moment, there was no need to say anything more!
On the way back, the corpses of the Qin soldiers were collected one by one. When the people in the city came out to welcome them, they had collected a total of 1,247 corpses of the Qin soldiers.
Although the casualties were heavy, the battle results were remarkable!
With the price of 1,247 people, he defeated the Xiongnu army of 100,000 and killed tens of thousands of enemies. This battle was enough to shock the world.
Of course, there were still some injuries, but they had not been counted yet.
"General."
The one-armed man walked over excitedly and bowed solemnly. He said,
"Feng An City was able to escape because of General. Wang Zhen, the prefect of Feng 'an City, thanked the general on behalf of the people of the whole city.”
"When the country is in trouble, everyone has a responsibility. Governor Wang, there's no need to thank me."
Ying Yu's eyes were calm. He thought for a while and said,"The current plan is to appease the people and prepare for the upcoming war.”
"When the country is in trouble, everyone has a responsibility!"
Wang Zhen's heart shook, his expression full of admiration."General, I am impressed by your magnanimity.”
"Let's enter the city." Ying Yu urged his horse forward.
When Wang Zhen saw this, he quickly got on his horse and chased after them. He returned to his senses and looked at the armored cavalry behind him. His eyes were filled with fanaticism.
"General, may I ask what you mean by the upcoming war?" he asked curiously.”
Ying Yu glanced at Wang Zhen and said in a bland voice,
"Although we have repelled the Xiongnu army this time, the Xiongnu will definitely not let this matter rest. They will definitely make a comeback.”
"What?" Wang Zhen exclaimed in shock.
"The Xiongnu will attack again. What should we do…"
In an instant, Wang Zhen panicked.
"Don't be afraid. Just fight." Ying Yu said, his eyes sharp.
Even if the Xiongnu didn't come, he would still take the initiative to enter the grasslands. The Xiongnu and Hu people were wild and ambitious. If they weren't eliminated, they would sooner or later become a huge threat to the Qin country.
"This…"
Wang Zhen revealed a troubled expression and said,"General, our soldiers are not afraid of death, but the people in the city... If not, how about we evacuate the people before the Xiongnu army arrives?”
"If you're not afraid of being intercepted, you can do so.”Ying Yu looked at Wang Zhen and said.
Wang Zhen sank into a deep helplessness. He immediately turned around and looked at the cavalry behind him.
"Feng An's survival will depend on General and everyone else.”
Sighing in disappointment, Wang Zhen said resolutely,"But don't worry, General. If that day comes, I will definitely take the lead.”
"You are a good official."
Ying Yu couldn't help but praise him. Such an official was worthy of admiration. He looked at Wang Zhen and said,"After this battle, you can go to Xianyang.”
"Ah?" Wang Zhen was startled, not understanding what he meant.
Surviving a disaster, but no smile.
Feng An City was filled with cries.
These were all innocent people who were facing the cruelest reality in the world.
Ying Yu secretly clenched his fists, a strong killing intent surging in his chest.
"Second Baby, Second Baby…"
"Hong Niang, don't let anything happen to you…"
A wounded soldier stumbled into a shabby courtyard not far from Ying Yu and the others.
However, what appeared in front of him was a scene that made his eyes almost pop out of their sockets. Immediately, he let out a shrill cry that shook the clouds.
"Uhh... Second Baby…"
His eyes were bloodshot, and tears of blood flowed down his face. Trembling, his lips and teeth trembled as he crawled to the side of a young corpse. He picked it up and held it tightly in his arms, crying bitterly.
This was a child about five or six years old. At this moment, he was already dead.
"Second Baby…Second Baby…Father is back. Wake up, wake up…"
The soldier sobbed as he called out. The child's eyes were tightly shut, and his arm fell silently in his arms.
"Second Baby, wake up. Daddy is back. Second Baby…Matchmaker, matchmaker…" The soldier thought of something and quickly searched the courtyard with Second Baby's body.
"Matchmaker, matchmaker…"
In the corner, he saw his naked wife with empty eyes.
"Matchmaker…" He quickly ran over, and his wife's empty eyes shone with a faint light.
"Husband."
She said softly and then sobbed,"I'm sorry, I'm sorry…I didn't protect Second Baby well. I-I..."
Seeing that his wife was not dead, the soldier's expression eased a little and he said guiltily,
"I've let you down, I've let you down…I protected Feng An, but I didn't protect you. I'm sorry, I'm sorry…"
"Why do you say that, husband?"
The woman revealed a gentle smile and said softly,""My husband is a soldier, a great hero who can support the heavens and the earth…Being able to marry my husband is the greatest happiness of my life. If there is a next life, I will still marry my husband.”
