In Dai Country.
There were ruins one after another, and the houses were dilapidated. Flames were burning everywhere, and black smoke was lingering.
The burning, killing, and looting of the Xiongnu had caused the originally quiet and peaceful border to be littered with corpses!
There were corpses of soldiers and civilians everywhere.
The rotten smell of the corpses attracted countless vultures, crows, snakes, insects, rats, and ants.
Dai County had already become the plaything of the Xiongnu!
They killed and set fires everywhere, robbing people and property.
The Xiongnu didn't treat the Central Plainsmen as humans at all. In their eyes, they were just livestock.
The few remaining cities of the Dai Kingdom had already fallen, and a large number of the citizens of the Dai Kingdom had been wantonly humiliated and killed! They were treated like livestock, carrying supplies and driving them away with whips.
At this moment, 100,000 Xiongnu soldiers had already surrounded Dai King's City.
Everyone in the capital was panicking. They felt a deep fear and felt that there was no hope!
The only hope now was…
It was on Zhao Yan, who had gone to Ji City to ask for help from the Third Young Master of the State of Qin.
The leader of the Xiongnu under the city was Chief Touman.
He was tall and sturdy, and his body was wrapped in sheepskin clothes, revealing his strong muscles. His face was filled with madness and excitement.
There were hundreds of thousands of people from the Central Plains and countless treasures in this city.
His eyes were filled with the greed of a hungry wolf.
There was even the princess of the old Zhao royal family, Zhao Yan!
She was a peerless beauty who was famous far and wide!
When he thought of this, his eyes became even more excited.
The State of Zhao was originally a great country! They had fought several times in the past few years, and he had suffered a few losses at the hands of the State of Zhao!
Now, Chief Touman could lead the Xiongnu army and trample him under his feet!
The beautiful princess of the old Zhao royal family was about to become his plaything!
How could he not be excited?
Chief Touman rode forward and shouted,""Open the city and surrender. I won't kill the people in the city. If you resist stubbornly, there will be no one left alive in the city when the city is broken! The 100,000 men under me will definitely slaughter the capital!”
If he broke through the city, he would massacre it!
When everyone in Dai King City heard this news, their hearts trembled.
Some of the soldiers were already beginning to waver. They only had a few thousand soldiers guarding the palace. How could they stop the dense horde of 100,000 Xiongnu soldiers?
The deputy general stepped forward and said to the general,"General, why don't we open the city and surrender? It's fine if we die in battle, but we have to consider the hundreds of thousands of people in the city.”
"A hundred thousand Xiongnu soldiers is not something that a few thousand of us can stop. If the city is broken, how can we face the people in the city?”
His words were filled with righteousness, and he tied the lives of the people in the city to his own.
The general glanced at him and scolded angrily,
"What bullshit are you talking about! Don't you know what the Huns are like? If you surrender, will they let you go? Let go of the people in the city?"
"Open your eyes wide and see clearly. Those are Xiongnu people!”
The thoughts in the deputy general's mind were exposed. He felt ashamed and immediately retreated.
The general shouted from the city gate tower,""A mere Xiongnu dares to speak such arrogant words! Do you have any credibility? They were just a bunch of livestock roaming the grasslands! What am I afraid of? If you want to fight, then fight!"
Although the general said this, he was very anxious in his heart. His only hope was that Zhao Yan would be able to bring Ji City's Qin country's Young Master Heng here.
Once the Qin army arrived, these pigs and dogs would all die!
He hoped that he could hold on until then. The general was not confident in defending Dai King City.
Head Man Chanyu was furious.
There were only a few thousand soldiers in the city, and this general actually dared to scold him! These Central Plainsmen were still so arrogant!
"Prepare to attack the city! After breaking through the city, kill all the men in the city and snatch all the women!”Chanyu Touman rode on his horse and shouted," They have to pay the price for their arrogant words!”
The Xiongnu soldiers were about to attack!
"Stop!" A delicate shout sounded.
In the distance, a Ferghana Stallion galloped over, kicking up a cloud of dust. Zhao Yan, who had changed into a set of tight-fitting clothes, held the reins in her hand and rushed over!
"Princess, princess is back!"
"That's great, we're saved!"
"Finally, I don't have to die!"
“……”
Everyone in Dai King City was excited! Zhao Yan was back! Then there was hope!
A moment later, the group of people realized that something was wrong!
That's not right. Why wasn't there a soldier of the State of Qin behind Zhao Yan?
Where was Gong Ziheng? What about Great Qin's Black Armored Army?
She came back alone?
Could it be…She didn't bring anyone back at all!
Immediately, the faces of the people in Dai King City who knew the truth turned pale, and despair rose in their hearts.
The Qin country was not willing to send troops?
It was over! It was really over!
The people in the city had a complete emotional breakdown. Those who were not strong-willed immediately cried. For a moment, the city was filled with wails.
Today, everyone in the city was going to die. What should they do?
Dai Wang City's city guard general's face was ashen, and his eyes were filled with disappointment. Since Zhao Yan did not bring anyone back, he might as well just run away and not come back!
A woman, and a peerless beauty at that, falling into the hands of the Xiongnu was worse than death!
Chief Touman laughed loudly. This little girl was really brave. She rushed to the front of his army alone.
He smiled and said," This girl is interesting. She delivered herself to my door. I can snatch her and bring her back." The women of the Central Plains have always been determined and stubborn. Only in this way can they be energetic and not get bored too quickly. Hahaha…"
The Xiongnu people around him laughed loudly.
One of the generals said,"Chanyu is right! I once killed a disobedient Central Plains woman and cut off her head to make a chamber pot thief. Not only is it beautiful, but it's also very useful!”
"Hahahaha!"
There was another round of laughter.
This made the people of Dai feel extremely humiliated!
The humiliation was accompanied by a monstrous rage!
What a cruel Xiongnu. They actually cut off the heads of women from the Central Plains and used them as chamber pots!
The eyes of many of the soldiers on the city wall turned red.
Even if they died in battle today, they would break the teeth of the Xiongnu!
"These damned beasts!"
Zhao Yan's expression was cold. Her hatred for these Xiongnu people had already taken root in her heart.
She had seen villages and towns that had been plundered by the Xiongnu. It could only be described as hell on earth.
Zhao Yan clenched the golden scepter in her hand. Her eyes were solemn as she said coldly,"I am under the orders of Young Master Heng to summon the Desert Ghosts to slaughter 100,000 Xiongnu soldiers!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the Xiongnu people were stunned.
Then, there was a burst of mockery. What Desert Ghost? And massacred 100,000 Xiongnu soldiers? Are you telling a fairy tale?
The people from Dai Nation were stunned when they saw Zhao Yan's expression.
Could it be that Zhao Yan did not get any reinforcements and went crazy?
Was this a prayer?
If the gods were useful, why would the Zhou Dynasty perish? Not to mention Gong Ziheng!
If he could make the Xiongnu retreat by saying a few words that he didn't understand, what was the use of an army?
"Young Master Heng?" Chief Touman mocked. You're talking about that Third Young Master of the State of Qin, right? He's nothing! Even if he came, he would still kill him! Then I'll cut off his head and use it as my chamber pot! Hahaha!"
"Little girl, the golden scepter in your hand is not bad. It's worth tens of thousands of cows and sheep.”
Chief Touman laughed and rode towards Zhao Yan."I want to bring her back and catch a large number of two-legged sheep in this generation of King City as rations. This year's winter will definitely be able to pass smoothly.”
The group of soldiers laughed.
"Chanyu, it's a pity to kill such a beautiful woman and use her as a chamber pot. When you're tired of her, you can give her to our brothers and roast her on an iron plate to eat.”
The person who spoke was very evil and twisted. He did not have the slightest bottom line as a human. He was completely a group of evil ghosts in human skin.
At the same time,
The hundred-thousand Xiongnu soldiers were ready to charge towards Dai King City!
They couldn't wait to enjoy the fruits of victory. Greed, brutality, bloodlust, and other expressions appeared on the faces of the Xiongnu soldiers.
Zhao Yan looked at Chief Touman who was getting closer and closer. While she was nervous, there was also an indescribable anger!
Thinking of the figure that was as sacred as the sun, Zhao Yan placed all her hopes on Gong Ziheng's Divine Spell. She chanted the final words of worship,"
"The Yellow Sand Army buried in the depths of time, revive! Turn the world into sand!”
Even as the sound of his voice faded, there was still no change. Zhao Yan's heart sank to the bottom of the valley. She gritted her teeth and prepared to fight to the death. Suddenly, she felt the scepter become scorching hot.
She looked down and was pleasantly surprised.
"This is…"
The runes carved on the Sun Scepter in her hand lit up one after another, shining like stars. They gathered together and turned into golden divine light that soared into the sky!
It turned into the shadow of a holy disc, like the eye of an ancient god overlooking the human world!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
A terrifying gale suddenly blew between heaven and earth, sweeping up the sand and dust in the sky. It was vast and mighty, gathering together and spreading for dozens of kilometers. This sudden change made the Xiongnu feel strange. They hurriedly pulled the reins and did not dare to charge.
However, the thick sand and dust did not disperse because of the strong wind. Instead, it became thicker and thicker, piling up together. From afar, it looked like a terrifying gate of hell that imprisoned countless demons!
Thump! Thump! Thump!
A heavy voice began to sound, like an ancient war drum beating. A vast fighting spirit swept out, as if returning to that ancient era. Blood stained the world, and an invisible terror began to spread, pressing down on everyone's hearts!
"Look over there!"
A sharp-eyed Xiongnu suddenly shouted. Everyone looked over and was shocked by the scene in front of them. Their eyes widened and their voice trembled,
"This is…"
