278: Goodbye Uroli
"This humble general means nothing else, This humble general has only fought with Lin Yue and doesn't think he's that weak," A Leng explained in a panic.
Then, fearing Wuluoli wouldn't believe him, he added, "If he were weak, he wouldn't have captured Your Highness.
Your Highness, wouldn't you agree?"
You're a big idiot!
Two black lines appeared on Wuluoli's forehead as he roared, "Anyone who disturbs military morale again will be beheaded!"
At this moment, he was cursing inwardly, how could Bulu have such a Military General under him, no wonder Bulu lost so badly!
With A Leng messing with people's minds under anyone's command, how could they not lose?
It seems only after he captures Lin Yue alive can he shut A Leng's mouth and wash away his past humiliation!
He would turn the dark history of his capture into a glorious deed that motivated him to finally get his revenge!
A Leng, on the other hand, was somewhat regretful.
Ever since he translated the jing guan (corpse display) left by Lin Yue, and was beaten half to death by Bulu, he was fortunately saved by Elder Aikala and had remained by Aikala's side ever since.
And because he was well-versed in Qin books and understood the qin language, he was transferred to Prince Wuluoli's side for this campaign.
He originally thought he had turned misfortune into a blessing, moving from a minor king like King Baiyang to Wuluoli, a future Chanyu, embarking on the second spring of his career.
But he didn't expect that he had just inadvertently offended Wuluoli, which made him worried about his future prospects.
"Alas, life is unpredictable," A Leng sighed, shaking his head.
"Alas," Chaji also shook his head and sighed.
It was truly not easy for someone like A Leng to live until now...
"My Lord!" Xing Daorong exclaimed in pleasant surprise, hurrying to meet him.
"A Rong, how are things now?" Lin Yue rode up and asked straightforwardly.
"The scouts say Wuluoli is less than forty li from here and moving very fast.
If you didn't come soon, This humble general was thinking of retreating a bit," Xing Daorong said with a smile.
"A Rong, you've done very well, you've become much more stable," Lin Yue breathed a sigh of relief.
It was a good thing A Rong hadn't acted impulsively, which made him look at Xing Daorong with new respect.
"It's all thanks to my Lord's good teaching," Xing Daorong scratched his head and smiled.
"My good teaching?" Lin Yue's eyes widened.
It seemed A Rong's words couldn't be trusted either, as he himself was not at all stable.
"Lao Pan and Wei Liang have already reached their designated positions, but they haven't gotten too close, to avoid exposure," Xing Daorong smiled and reported the newly received information to Lin Yue.
"Good, forty li, there's still some time," Lin Yue nodded and said nothing more, quietly waiting for Wuluoli's arrival.
Pan Feng and Wei Liang were both in position.
Three hundred thousand against two hundred thousand, the advantage was on his side.
Now they just had to wait for Wuluoli to fall into their trap.
Now it was a test of who could hold out longer.
They had each woven an invisible net for the other, both planning to catch the other in one fell swoop!
..."Right Wise King, Prince Wuluoli suddenly accelerated his advance and is now a hundred li ahead of us," a Xiongnu Military General reported with a bow.
"Wuluoli, what is he rushing off to do?" the Right Wise King, whose figure resembled a small mountain, frowned.
"This Subordinate does not know.
The people this Subordinate sent to investigate have not yet returned," the Military General replied in a low voice.
"What about the thirty thousand elite soldiers behind him?" the Right Wise King asked.
"They've been following behind, but they've also been pulled a distance apart," the Military General said with a helpless expression.
"Then you take troops and go again, protect him, don't let him be in danger," the Right Wise King said in a deep voice.
"Yes!" The Military General nodded and withdrew.
Watching the Military General's retreating figure, the Right Wise King wondered if Wuluoli had discovered something to act this way?
"Army, accelerate!" The Right Wise King felt a faint unease and immediately said.
"Lin Yue! Lin Yue! Lin Yue!
Where did you brat run off to!
Lin Yue!
Damn it."
She Jian couldn't help but curse in frustration.
This was countless times he had called out in the past half an hour, but he hadn't received a single response!
"General, should I go take a look?" Tong Wei asked softly.
"Look at what!
No response means he's already a hundred li away from us.
By the time you go and come back, what time will it be!" She Jian's face was grim, thinking that this brat's old habits must have resurfaced!
And he himself was completely bewildered, unable to understand the situation!
"Giving him this communication token is worse than giving it to a dog!
A dog at least knows to bark a couple of times and give a response," She Jian spat fiercely, then roared, "Army, accelerate!"
"Understood!" Everyone responded, then left a trail of dust on the prairie...
"Twenty li!" Xing Daorong reminded.
"Withdraw the scouts in batches," Lin Yue said in a deep voice.
"Understood!" Xing Daorong responded.
"Ten li!" The scout from the front reported back.
"All troops, prepare!" Lin Yue said in a deep voice into the communication token!
Time passed by second by second, everyone was silent, not wanting to break the suffocating tension.
Just then, Wang Zhi suddenly spoke: "General, shouldn't we tell General She Jian?"
"Uh..." Lin Yue momentarily forgot about this.
He was just about to speak when he heard the scout who had rushed back from the front shout loudly:
"Five li!"
Lin Yue's demeanor changed.
At this moment, he couldn't afford to worry about such things.
Immediately, he roared:
"Charge with me!"
"Understood!" Pan Feng and Wei Liang's voices came simultaneously through the token.
"Charge!" The one hundred and thirty thousand White Horse Righteous Cavalry charged forward in response!
The entire earth trembled slightly!
The two sides grew closer and closer, soon to collide!
The cavalry leading both sides began to nock arrows and shoot, and a rain of arrows instantly fell, immediately causing chaos with men and horses falling!
Lin Yue parried two arrows with his saber and then saw Wuluoli in the middle of the Xiongnu cavalry, which made his heart surge with excitement!
"Virtuous Brother Wuluoli! Half a year no see, this elder brother truly misses you!
Quickly come with me into the tent, this elder brother has already prepared a banquet to entertain you, let us reminisce about old times!" Lin Yue laughed loudly!
"Lin Yue, stop with your glib tongue.
I am here today to take your dog's life!" Wuluoli gritted his teeth and said!
"Virtuous Brother, you seem a bit irritable.
Could it be that the sandstorms in Beihai were too strong, blinding your dog eyes?
Have you forgotten how this elder brother took care of you back then?" Lin Yue laughed loudly!
"Hmph, Lin Yue, you young brat, stop with your glib tongue.
Today, you and I will settle this with our hands!" Wuluoli said coldly.
That was his sore spot, and now that Lin Yue had exposed it in front of everyone, his anger burned even brighter!
But the half-year in Beihai had made him realize many things, and that was when he saw Lin Yue again, the best way to get revenge was to stomp him underfoot!
Seeing that his words had no effect in provoking him, Lin Yue thought, 'Has Wuluoli actually grown a brain?'
He still wanted to speak and probe him further, but the next moment, a chill ran through his heart, and he immediately gripped his long saber, his eyes widening gradually!
Because the person next to Wuluoli actually rode out alone, heading straight for them!
What was even more terrifying was that the Xiongnu Military General charged forward two steps on his horse, and then the warhorse let out a tragic whinny.
Immediately, its two front hooves heavily struck the ground, and the immense pressure made the warhorse kneel, losing its footing!
And that Xiongnu Military General actually flew over directly!
