"Is it related to my lord?" Liu Fei was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up." General Huang, you mean that our lord has successfully ambushed the Chanyu Court?”
"I don't know if he succeeded or not, but the news of our lord's surprise attack on the Chanyu Court must have reached the South Xiongnu commander. Otherwise, he wouldn't have suddenly led his army to retreat.”
Huang Zhong looked to the north and pondered for a moment before saying," Dian Wei, lead the Red Blood Guards and follow me. We'll harass the enemy from behind and prevent them from retreating to the Southern Xiongnu in time. We'll try our best to buy time for our lord. Liu Fei, lend me your 100 cavalrymen as well. You stay in Lian County.”
"Yes!"
Dian Wei and Liu Fei both accepted the order.
Soon, Huang Zhong led 300 Red Pinion Guards, 100 cavalry, Dian Wei, and his 800 Red Blood Guards out of the city and chased after the Southern Xiongnu army.
The 100,000 strong Southern Xiongnu army had lost close to 10,000 people in Lian County, leaving only 90,000 soldiers.
Not all of these troops were cavalry. There were also infantrymen and logistics troops escorting rations. Naturally, they could not move too fast.
Although Huang Zhong and the others were mostly infantry, their marching speed was not slow.
Especially Dian Wei's Red Blood Guards, their speed was much faster than ordinary infantry.
"Dian Wei, the Red Blood Guards are fast. You chase after them first and attack their rear to slow them down. The cavalry will follow and protect them along the way."
Huang Zhong said in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
Dian Wei and the cavalry commander received the order in unison. They quickly exerted their strength and quickly pulled away from the Red Pinion Guards.
As he watched the Blood Red Guards gradually disappear from his sight, Huang Zhong led the Red Pinion Guards on their journey while falling into deep thought.
"It seems that in the future, I will have to suggest to my lord to let the Red Pinion Guards practice riding horses.”
Huang Zhong said in his heart.
Letting the Red Pinion Guards practice riding horses was not to let them fight on horseback, but to increase their marching speed and conserve their stamina.
When pursuing the enemy, the Red Pinion Guards could also display great lethality, but their marching speed was too slow, and sometimes they could not catch up to the enemy at all.
If he could ride a horse, he could greatly increase his speed. After catching up to the enemy, he could dismount and shoot at them. Wouldn't that be beautiful?
After an unknown period of time, Huang Zhong saw the corpses of the Southern Xiongnu soldiers on the road. It was obvious that Dian Wei and the others had caught up to the Southern Xiongnu army and fought.
"Hurry up! Speed up."
Huang Zhong shouted angrily and increased his speed again.
Finally, after an hour of wild pursuit, they finally caught up to Dian Wei and the others.
At this moment, Dian Wei and the others were maintaining their formation and fighting against the Southern Xiongnu cavalry.
Although the Xiongnu cavalrymen were unable to break through the Red Blood Guards 'formation, the Red Blood Guards did not dare to ignore the Xiongnu cavalrymen and continue their pursuit.
As for their crossbow bolts, they had already used up all of them. Without any long-range attacks, they could only rely on the formation to slowly advance. This speed of advancement was much slower. Even if they killed this cavalry, it was impossible for them to catch up to the Southern Xiongnu army.
"Kill them!"
With Huang Zhong's order, the Red Pinion Guards immediately drew their bows and nocked their arrows, launching an attack on the Xiongnu cavalry.
Instantly, screams filled the air.
The Southern Xiongnu cavalry camp instantly became chaotic.
At this moment, the 100 county soldiers charged forward and charged into the South Xiongnu cavalry camp. They charged forward as if they had entered a no-man's land.
"Kill them!"
Dian Wei roared angrily and led the Blood Red Guards to launch a frenzied attack.
Everyone worked together and quickly killed the cavalry that was covering the rear.
When they led the army to chase after them again, they found that the Southern Xiongnu army had stopped advancing. There were even constant shouts of killing, as if they had been ambushed.
"It's my lord. It should be my lord who has returned. Quick, charge over.”
Huang Zhong said loudly.
"Kill them!"
Dian Wei and the others let out earth-shaking roars. Their fighting spirit was unprecedentedly strong.
Chu Feng was the god in their hearts. Now that their god had returned, their fighting spirit instantly rose to the peak and their combat strength soared once again.
They attacked from the rear, advancing slowly step by step, devouring the Southern Xiongnu army bite by bite.
The Southern Xiongnu army was in a mess, their fighting spirit was low, and their fighting strength was reduced to less than 10%.
At this moment, they were like fish waiting to be slaughtered. They were completely different from the turbulent performance when they attacked Lian County.
Morale was too important in a war.
If the morale was low, even a top-notch special soldier at the peak of the ace level could be slaughtered by a group of ordinary soldiers.
"Chu Feng! Snow Dragon Riders!"
The commander of the Southern Xiongnu's central army looked at the white-robed cavalrymen on white horses and the eighteen youths in crimson armor, his eyes dark and gloomy.
They had come to kill Chu Feng, but they hadn't expected Chu Feng to sneak up on the Chanyu Court.
Just as he was about to lead his troops back to the rescue, he was ambushed by Chu Feng and his Snowy Dragon Cavalry.
Was there a problem with the messenger?
Or was Chu Feng doing it on purpose? Pretending to attack the Chanyu Court, but in reality, he was going to ambush him?
The commander thought of many things at this moment.
But no matter what, Chu Feng was right in front of them, so they had to kill him.
"Marshal, the Han army is catching up and slaughtering the rear.”The messenger quickly reported.
"Don't worry about the rear army. Pass on my order. The soldiers of the middle army will attack quickly. We must make sure Chu Feng and the Snowy Dragon Cavalry stay here.”The commander said in a deep voice.
The messenger was stunned for a moment, but he still turned around and left to deliver the order.
Soon, the soldiers of the central army joined the battlefield and launched an attack on Chu Feng and the others.
Chu Feng looked at the Xiongnu commander outside the battlefield with a calm expression.
He bent down and untied the head tied to the horse's neck. He raised it high into the sky and said in a clear voice,"Prince Xian of the Left's head is here.”
There was no way they could kill all 100,000 soldiers.
Chu Feng's target was the commander of the Southern Xiongnu.
Seeing the head of the Left Virtuous Prince, all the Xianbei soldiers were stunned.
The reason why they were attacking Lian County was because of the order of Prince Xian of the Left.
But now, Prince Xian of the Left had been killed by Chu Feng. This made them fall into confusion.
Was there still a need to fight Chu Feng here?
The already low morale became even lower.
"Prince Xian of the Left?"
The South Xiongnu commander's body swayed, and his face turned as pale as paper.
Prince Xian of the Left, whom he wanted to protect, had actually been killed by Chu Feng?
What were those bastards doing in the Chanyu Court?
While the Xiongnu army was still in a daze, Chu Feng led the 18 Scarlet Blood Cavalry and charged forward. They quickly killed their way through the enemy and appeared in front of the Xiongnu commander.
