Cheng Bushi had no intention of pursuing them. The Huns were all cavalry. Since they were not blocked in front of the military formation, pursuing them now would not be of much use.
The total number of cavalry in his hands is only more than 4,000. Not only are the horses incomparable to the opponent, but their combat power is not even inferior. If they cooperate with the infantry, they can barely fight, but if the cavalry fights one-on-one, It's better not to go up and deliver food.
Fortunately, Yi Zhixie and the others had no intention of fighting. After rushing through the Great Wall, Yi Zhixie breathed a deep sigh of relief.
When he came with a mighty 80,000 soldiers and horses, he was high-spirited and invincible at that time, but what about now? He was as panicked as a lost dog. The contrast was so great that until now, Yi Zhixie had not figured out where he had failed.
How could a situation that was originally a must-win situation deteriorate to this point in just a few days?
All the generals on the left and right were killed, and 70,000 Xiongnu warriors were buried here. From the beginning of the Han-Hungarian war to the present, there has never been such a huge defeat.
Yi Zhixie didn't know now how he was going to face the furious Shanyu. How could those Han people's crossbow arrows continue like rain?
Until now, Yi Zhixie has never figured this out.
But now a bigger problem is before him. There are more than 10,000 people who escaped with him this time.
This place is close to the Han Dynasty, and there are no herdsmen grazing within hundreds of miles. In order to speed up the journey, they traveled lightly and simply. It can be said that they lost everything they could, except the armor and weapons on their bodies. Apart from that, there is almost nothing left.
When he was in the territory of the Han Dynasty, life and death could not be determined. Of course, those things were not important. But after leaving the border of the Han Dynasty, the problem of eating, drinking and urinating was placed in front of him again.
There is no human habitation within hundreds of miles. How to solve the problem of feeding more than 10,000 people?
This vast prairie is full of endless wilderness. Where can I find enough food for more than 10,000 people?
"Where did the Bank of China say it was?"
At this time, Yi Zhixie had no choice but to call Bank of China to see if there was anything he could do.
"King Zuo Guli, I'm afraid I will die..."
The crazy running along the way made Zhong Xing extremely upset. He was seriously injured in the first place, and he was tortured by the two cavalrymen. Even if he was later replaced by Gru's confidant, but that He was so busy running for his life that he didn't even bother to take care of his physical condition.
When they saw Yi Zhixie, Bank of China said that he was dying and only had his last breath left. Looking at his pale face and blood all over his body, Yi Zhixie was shocked.
"Damn it, didn't I ask you to take good care of him? Why did he become like this? Where is Gru?"
At this time, Yi Zhixie really needed Bank of China to give him some advice. Otherwise, how would more than 10,000 people live in this vast grassland without food or water?
"King Zuo Guli, this slave's body is too weak and he really can't hold on any longer. It has nothing to do with them..."
This man was about to die, but his words were good, and he had already reached this point. Bank of China said he thought he was going to die. He was already going to die anyway, so why bother others?
I wasn't a good person to begin with, so I just thought I was doing good deeds before I died. Seeing that King Zuo Guli was so angry, he felt a little embarrassed when he interceded for them and took care of the two Huns.
"Stop talking now. I will order them to find a carriage for you. When we return to the royal court, I will find someone to treat you immediately!"
Yi Zhixie also felt a little regretful. If he had known this, he should have explained it more, so that he would not have anyone to make suggestions now.
"King Zuo Guli, please retreat. I'm afraid I won't be able to become a slave. Let me give you one final idea..."
The Bank of China said it had a clear picture of the situation of the Huns along the way. What problem is Yi Zhixie facing now? Of course he knew it.
It was almost winter now, and the two countries were at war. The herdsmen had already returned from the border of the Han Dynasty to the vicinity of the royal court. There was no human habitation within a radius of seven to eight hundred miles.
Naturally, there won't be any supplies. In other words, they will have to go without food or water for at least five days. The war horses may be able to hold on, but people can't!
Now they were exhausted, their physical strength was almost reaching its limit, and they were about to face five days without food or water.
If Yi Zhixie announces this news, God knows what choices the remnants of the Tiebul tribe will make...
"You guys go down first! Stay away from me. No one is allowed to stay within fifty steps!"
Seeing that Bank of China was so insistent, Yi Zhixie no longer needed to be polite to him, and directly ordered his soldiers to spread the cordon farther away, but he chose to keep Gru by his side.
"Is King Zuo Guli worried that these people will rebel without water and food?"
Bank of China's voice was very weak, and his body was about to reach its limit. As a eunuch, and he was thrown into this vast grassland. Recently, he has been beaten and injured. He has many chronic diseases. The disease, coupled with the suffering during this period of time, he was really about to run out of gas.
"You can still see these things clearly, what do you think I should do?"
Yi Zhixie gritted his teeth. Anyway, there were only three of them, BOC and Gru, so he didn't have to deny anything here.
"King Zuogu Li, you can't let them go back alive. If they go back alive, I'm afraid even the Great Chanyu won't be able to protect you. Although Tiebul is dead, with these thousands of cavalry, his tribe can still survive. , not to mention Tibur’s uncle is the King of Aries!”
Bank of China's voice was very soft, but in Gru's ears, it was like thunder.
"you mean……"
"No poison, no husband. Since Tiebul is dead, what are you still doing with them? If there were less of these 4,000 people and 4,000 more horses, wouldn't King Zuo Guli be able to go back safely? ? And without them, wouldn’t King Zuo Guli have the final say on how this battle will be lost?”
I have to say that this is indeed a vicious plan, but now, this is Yi Zhixie's only chance.
The problem is that even if Yi Zhixie is King Zuoguli, he would not dare to bear the crime of massacring his own people.
Bank of China said that it understood in its heart that Yi Zhixie had actually thought of this method a long time ago, but he just needed to use his own words to say it...
"you……"
Gru felt that his whole world had been overturned. Last time, it was Bank of China who wanted to communicate with him in private, but now it was in front of Yi Zhixie...
Zhongxing said with a wry smile on his face, and Gru suddenly felt a chill on his back. Although he didn't look back, he already felt that King Zuo Guli was watching him...
