"Very good! Since this is your choice, don't blame me for being cruel! If you don't send troops to support me, I will retreat with my elite troops now!"
As soon as Yu Dan said these words, the Aries King was stunned for an instant. He never expected that this kid would be so shameless. Is there anyone more shameless than him in the world?
Now his soldiers are still fighting hard in the front. If they withdraw like this, people will be in panic, and they will really be defeated like a mountain.
Although the Han army did not have a numerical advantage, the terrain here was not conducive to a cavalry attack.
Two days ago there were 50,000 troops, but now there were less than 20,000 left.
It had only been two short days. Even if 30,000 pigs stood there motionless, it would still take some time for these Han troops to catch them.
"Your Highness, is this the responsibility of your great Hun Prince? I lent you these 50,000 troops to quell the rebellion. Aren't you afraid of being held accountable by the Great Chanyu for doing so?"
The Aries King was already shaking with anger, but there was still nothing he could do at this time.
"If the Great Chanyu asks, it is naturally because King Aries refused to send troops to support, so this defeat occurred. Why should I, the prince, be guilty of trying to preserve his strength to the maximum extent?"
Yu Dantian said shamelessly.
"Very good! Come here, send the order to mobilize the army to come for reinforcements! Now, can you order my soldiers to stop attacking?"
People had to bow their heads under the low eaves. King Aries was still reluctant to part with the remaining 20,000 people. After all, if he only had the 20,000 people at hand, it would be difficult for him to rush back to the grassland to confront Zhou Yafu head-on. Army.
After all, it was the flood season, and the winds and waves on the Yellow River were high. Moreover, in these days and months, there had never been any floating bridges on the Yellow River. To get back to the grassland from here, they needed to take a long detour.
There was no numerical advantage, and they were traveling long distances.
If Zhou Yafu takes the lead, I'm afraid that the 20,000 people he finally brought back will be defeated by Zhou Yafu in the end.
"That's right, the Aries King is indeed the Aries King of my Great Huns. When I return to the royal court, I will definitely ask the Great Chanyu for your merits!"
Yu Dan chuckled, and then breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Now we can let them stop attacking temporarily and stabilize the situation first!"
The Aries King's eyes were splitting as he watched his soldiers fall down in rows. You can imagine the pain in his body...
"Give me the order to suspend the offensive and drive out these Han cavalry first!"
Yu Dan and the others were already five hundred steps away. If it weren't for the fact that those who were resisting them were all elites of the headquarters, I am afraid that Yu Dan would have become the ghost under their swords by this time.
"Hahahahaha, Captain Han, why don't we two compete to see who killed more people today!"
Long Xiao and the others charged forward, and Wang Chong led his troops to follow closely behind. When passing by the Modao Army's camp, Wang Chong suddenly turned around and shouted.
"Hahahaha, so good! Hey! Look at the knife!"
Han Lei slashed with his backhand and split a Hun cavalryman next to him into two pieces.
"First one! I came out on top first!"
Han Lei laughed, his bloodthirsty look like a demon from hell.
Not to be outdone, Wang Chong waved the horizontal sword in his hand and chopped off the head of a Huns cavalry with a backhand strike.
"Of course Wang will not be far behind, brothers, fight with me!"
"Woo-wu-wu-"
Just when the two men were about to kill each other, a whining horn sound suddenly came from the Huns' military formation.
Immediately afterwards, the Huns cavalry on the Shenwu Army side finally began to retreat.
Li Guang let out a long breath. He was indeed a little too proud today. If he had saved these cavalry and left, he wouldn't have suffered as badly as he did now.
"Ming Jin withdraws his troops!"
Now that the Huns have begun to retreat, Li Guang no longer dares to waste time.
Now at this time, we can only rush back to the city as soon as possible.
Seeing that Yu Dan was less than 300 steps away from him, but at this time, Li Jun actually ordered to retreat again, which made Long Xiao somewhat regretful.
But looking at the tide of Hun cavalry behind him, Long Xiao didn't dare to fight. If they were surrounded again this time, there wouldn't be so many people coming to save them.
"Damn it! Get out!"
In desperation, Long Xiao could only turn his horse's head and charge towards the outside of the Huns' camp.
Wang Chong was not good at arrows, so naturally he could only lead the soldiers of the Qin Army to retreat to a safe area, but the soldiers of the Modao Army were really in trouble now.
The armor on their bodies is too bulky and powerful when fighting the enemy, but it is also very bulky when retreating.
Fortunately, there were ownerless horses everywhere here. Han Lei immediately ordered his soldiers to help each other get on the horses without any nonsense, and then followed closely behind Long Xiao and the others.
Yu Dan's wishful thinking failed again. He really overestimated the subordinates of the Aries King.
Originally, he was thinking of asking these people to withdraw and then directly flank Long Xiao and the others from behind.
But they didn't expect that as soon as the trumpet for withdrawal sounded, these people ran away like wild horses that had escaped the reins.
As for Yu Dan's orders, they were completely ignored...
By the time they reacted, the Han cavalry had already disappeared.
On the contrary, the Shenwu Army kept retreating towards the depths of the trapped horse pit.
Yu Dan is really itching his teeth now, but there is no good way...
Looking at the devastated camp in front of him, Yu Dan felt an inexplicable loss in his heart...
Why is this battle going like this?
Until now, he still hadn't thought through this problem. He was obviously the first to attack, but in the end he could only lose troops and generals.
The camp had obviously been stolen once by the Han army, but he was attacked again by them one after another.
Obviously the Huns' cavalry is unparalleled in the world, but why can't they even defeat a group of useless infantry in their own hands!
The 80,000-strong army is in his own hands, and now almost half of it has been killed or injured.
But there were really very few casualties on the Han army side, and most of the lightly wounded were taken away by them...
But now, the saddest person is not Yu Dan.
After counting the number of his men, the Aries King was really in pain and his whole body was shaking.
More than half of his 50,000-strong army was directly damaged, excluding those who were injured and those who could not travel far. In the end, there were less than 15,000 people who could follow him back to the grassland...
"Liu Deng! If I don't avenge this revenge, I swear I won't be a human being!"
The Aries King suddenly pulled out the scimitar from his waist, and then severely decapitated a war horse next to him.
Although he was scolding Liu Deng, his eyes were looking at Yu Dan not far away with hatred...
But being ruthless couldn't solve any problem. Now that things were at this point, he had to rush back to the grassland as soon as possible.
"Your Highness, I'd like to take my leave!"
The Aries King's army finally arrived, but he had no intention of chasing the Shenwu Army. At this time, he just wanted to take his people back to Haizi.
The corners of Yu Dan's mouth twitched, but he didn't say anything...
