Chapter 53: Destroying the Huns in One Battle

Some of the Xiongnu cavalry wore leather armor, while some did not, and could not resist the frenzied charge and slashing of the Qin cavalry.

With stirrups and high-bridge saddles, the Qin heavy cavalry could completely free their upper bodies, and each attack was powerful.

The Xiongnu soldiers, who relied on their legs to clamp the horse's belly to maintain balance, could not exert much strength, and were directly beheaded, split in half, or knocked to the ground and trampled to death by the horses...

For a time, the Xiongnu front army was in chaos.

Wang Ben immediately chopped off the head of the leader of the Xiongnu front army.

The Xiongnu front army was defeated.

Standing on the top of the fortress, Wang Jian saw Wang Ben leading the heavy cavalry corps to pierce the heart of the Xiongnu front army like a sharp knife, and he couldn't help but clap his hands and laugh:

"Good!!!"

At the same time, he was in awe of Mr. Tiandaolou's wisdom.

Without the stirrups, horseshoes and Gaoqiao saddles given by the master, there would be no transformation of the Qin cavalry today!

…

At the rear army of the Xiongnu.

When Prince Maodun saw this scene, his face was extremely gloomy and his brows were furrowed!

Damn it, when did the Qin dog cavalry become so ferocious and terrifying? !

"Prince, our front army is about to collapse!" Xiang Liang reminded solemnly.

Maodun took a deep breath and shouted in a deep voice: "Order the central army to turn around and attack the Qin dog! Order all the rear troops to follow this prince to kill. I don’t believe that the Qin dog cavalry can resist ten times the Xiongnu cavalry!!!"

Clang!

Maodun took the lead in drawing out the cold scimitar and drove the warhorse to rush towards the battlefield.

Once the bow is drawn, there is no turning back. In today's battle, he, Maodun, can only win, not lose!

There are three reasons.

First, if this battle is lost, a large amount of food and grass cannot be seized, and a large number of Xiongnu people and livestock will starve to death in the coming winter!

Secondly, if he loses this battle, Maodun will lose all his prestige among the Xiongnu, and his position as the crown prince will certainly not be secured!

Thirdly, the Xiongnu may very likely be destroyed by the Qin Dynasty!

For all these reasons, Maodun must destroy Wang Jian and the Qin army in front of him at all costs!

Xiang Liang, Ji Fei and Tian Yuan, three fierce generals, also drew their swords and followed Maodun closely. The 100,000 Xiongnu rear army behind them also drew their scimitars and rushed to kill.

Soon, the central army also joined the battlefield from other directions.

Although the number of Xiongnu cavalry was nearly three times that of the Qin army and nearly ten times that of the Qin cavalry,

however, due to the huge gap in equipment and the lack of tactics, Maodun was eventually defeated.

The battle lasted for a day and a night.

Xiongnu scouts reported that many Qin troops were rushing here and would be able to join the battlefield in a few hours at most.

Maodun had to flee in embarrassment!

He only brought Xiang Liang, Ji Fei, Tian Yuan, and more than 3,000 cavalrymen, fighting desperately to break out of the siege, heading north all the way to the direction of Danhan Mountain.

The other Xiongnu cavalrymen were either killed or captured.

In the end, only 3,000 of the 300,000 Xiongnu elites fled back in a panic. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a complete annihilation. The loss was unprecedented!

After this battle, even if the Qin Dynasty did not destroy the Xiongnu, the Xiongnu would not be able to invade the Qin Dynasty again in the next 20 years!

If things go wrong, the Xiongnu will be dismembered and eaten by the surrounding nomadic countries such as Donghu and Yuezhi!

But Wang Jian could not let Maodun go. He ordered the heavy cavalry to take off their heavy armor and chase lightly, and he must kill Maodun.

At the same time, he ordered Li Xin and several other generals to lead the 250,000 troops who came back to support, and divided them into three routes to directly attack the Xiongnu Wangting Danhan Mountain.

In addition, a messenger was sent back to Xianyang at full speed to report the news of the great victory to His Majesty!

Wang Jian's goal was not to make the Xiongnu unable to invade the south within 20 years, or to make wedding clothes for others. He wanted to destroy the Xiongnu and incorporate the Xiongnu territory into the territory of the Qin Dynasty!

The demise of the Xiongnu was only a matter of time, and all this had become a foregone conclusion!

...

Xianyang, the capital of Qin.

The palace, the Qilin Hall.

Ying Zheng sat on the throne, holding a cigar, glanced at the ministers, and smiled: "Come on, read the victory report of Marquis Wucheng to everyone!"

He was in a good mood!

The news that Wang Jian defeated the Xiongnu in Shangjun finally made Ying Zheng's breath that had been stagnant in his chest finally come out!

"Yes!"

A eunuch immediately read Wang Jian's victory report loudly to the ministers.

"Great! It's really great!"

"The Xiongnu was seriously injured after this battle, and we, the Qin Dynasty, will definitely destroy it!"

"The Qin Dynasty is mighty!!!"

"Long live your majesty!!!"

The ministers were excited to hear the victory report.

After the court session, Ying Zheng said, "Come here, go to my treasury and prepare 100,000 gold and other valuables. I'm going to Tiandao Tower!"

He knew that the reason why they were able to achieve a great victory this time and defeat the Huns in one battle was that Mr. Tiandao Tower played a great role!

If it weren't for Mr.'s poisonous plan and the three treasures of Ma Zhong, there would be no way to defeat the Huns!

Ying Zheng wanted to tell Mr. this news and thank him!

Tiandao Tower.

Chen Qilin's life was relaxed and leisurely.

If there were customers, he would do small business to earn some Tiandao points.

When there was no business, he would taste tea, drink wine, smoke cigars, watch new movies, etc.

Now Chen Qilin was lying on the leather sofa like Ge You, holding a cigar while watching the new movies of the island country action superstar.

Xiao Hei, who was as strong as Mr. Bodybuilding, squatted in the distance, sneaking a peek at the new action movies in his master's hand from time to time.

[Ding! Qin Shihuang came to Tiandao Tower! 】

Chen Qilin stood up and put away the new version, thinking, what's the point of not knowing that Ying Zheng, the God of Wealth, came to see him?

Soon, Ying Zheng came to the reception room.

Chen Qilin had already known the other party's intention through the system, but he still asked knowingly:

"Your Majesty, welcome to Tiandao Tower. I wonder if I can help you with anything?"

"Haha, sir, I came to you this time not to ask you for help, but to thank you!" Ying Zheng said with a smile.

Chen Qilin didn't speak, just looked at Ying Zheng.

"Sir, Wang Jian won a great victory at the border of Shangjun. He annihilated and captured nearly 300,000 Xiongnu cavalry in one battle, and directly beat the Xiongnu to a great loss!"

Ying Zheng held Chen Qilin's hands and said excitedly: "I thank you for your advice and for inventing the three treasures of horses! Come on, bring the gifts up!"

Immediately, guards brought in four boxes of gold, silver, treasures, and precious antiques.

Chen Qilin's eyes swept towards the treasure box.

[Ding! Four boxes of things can be exchanged for 100 Tiandao points! 】

Seeing this, Chen Qilin smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you are too polite. Come and sit down!"

Ying Zheng sat on the leather sofa. Chen Qilin gave him a thick cigar and said, "Your Majesty, you smoke first. I will go to the backyard to make arrangements. You can stay for dinner tonight!"

"Then, I will be disrespectful to refuse!"

Ying Zheng took the cigar, picked up the lighter skillfully, lit it, and puffed out smoke.

Chen Qilin took four boxes of wealth and went to the backyard to exchange them for Tiandao points silently.

Then he went to prepare dinner himself.

Soon a large table of delicious dishes was served, including Dongpo pork, pine nut mandarin fish, grilled lamb chops, Buddha jumps over the wall, etc., which was very rich.

"Your Majesty, come and eat!" Chen Qilin greeted Ying Zheng.

He had been drooling with greed for a long time, and he didn't say anything polite. He sat at the table and grabbed a piece of lamb chops sprinkled with cumin and started to eat.

Compared with the food that the gentleman eats, Ying Zheng feels that he is eating pig food in the palace.

Although he is the lord of the Qin Dynasty, rich and powerful, his quality of life is far from that of the gentleman!

Ying Zheng only cares about his image in Tiandao Tower.

The relationship between Ying Zheng and Chen Qilin is more like a pair of old friends.

Chen Qilin is not surprised. He opens a bottle of top-grade Lafite and pours half a glass for himself and Ying Zheng.

"Your Majesty, let's clink glasses!"

Chen Qilin picked up the wine glass and said, "Congratulations on your great victory over the Huns. It is estimated that Wang Jian and his men will soon be able to destroy the Huns and expand the territory for the Qin Dynasty!"
