317: Heavy damage to the heavy armored cavalry

“Take good care of A Rong!” Lin Yue said to Tian Liang.

“Understood!” Tian Liang replied, sweating profusely and flustered.

A Rong had already fainted, but Lin Yue felt his breath and found there were no major issues, so he finally relaxed.

As for A Rong, let him sleep for a while; what he probably needs most right now is rest, and some time to himself.

Lin Yue turned and rushed forward, finding that the offensive and defensive situation had already reversed. General Yang Ye had returned at some point and, with the Generals, had begun a counterattack!

Lin Yue and Li Mu exchanged a glance, then charged forward!

“Kill!”

Li Mu shouted and joined the battle with Lin Yue!

Liu Sandao held his great saber and followed closely beside General Yang Ye, charging forward with him. However, the short blade he always carried on his back was gone. Only then did Lin Yue realize that the person who saved Xing Daorong was Liu Sandao!

This flying blade skill was truly a hundred-step bullseye!

Meanwhile, Dong Zhuo’s former Generals, Gao Bin and Wang Cheng, wielded large hammers, seemingly from nowhere, specifically targeting the heads of the heavily armored cavalry! Once struck, the Xiongnu heavy cavalry would undoubtedly fall and not rise again!

With everyone working together and many Military Generals holding the line, they fought without restraint, each displaying their unique abilities!

Facing the Qin Army’s furious counterattack, the Xiongnu’s heavily armored cavalry found it difficult to resist and showed signs of collapse!

Just then, Zhao Ponu rode up alone and finally stopped beside Lin Yue, reporting: “My Lord, Xiongnu Soldiers are continuously pouring in from all sides of the Xiongnu Encampment; we are about to be surrounded!”

“Where is Zi Long?” Lin Yue asked.

“Zhao Xiaowei is still fighting that person, but more and more Military Generals are joining the enemy’s side!” Zhao Ponu shouted anxiously.

“Blow the horn, Army assemble!” Lin Yue said gravely.

The surrounding “satellite camps” had already reacted. Judging by Zhao Ponu’s tone, there were many of them. Unlike the Right Wise King’s Army, which was completely unprepared, they were already armed and constituted a prepared and organized force. Fighting them would be much more difficult than the current situation!

Therefore, they could not delay any longer. If they waited until they were completely surrounded, their fate would be total annihilation!

Lin Yue had to admit at this moment that the sneak attack on the Right Wise King’s Encampment was a failed night raid. They had underestimated the enemy’s strength, not expecting such a heavily armored cavalry force of nearly ten thousand in the Right Wise King’s Encampment!

And it was these ten thousand heavily armored cavalry that stubbornly held them back, tying up most of their forces!

This prevented them from expanding their gains and achieving their predetermined strategic objectives!

“Whoosh…”

The Qin Army’s horn sounded, slowly and melodiously spreading throughout the entire Right Wise King’s Encampment. Upon hearing the Qin Army’s assembly signal, all the Qin Army Soldiers within the Encampment abandoned their pursuit and hunting, instead forming ranks with nearby comrades and converging towards the sound of the horn.

Lin Yue’s eyes, however, burned with fury. Although their casualties were not great in this battle, their future was uncertain, and several Military Generals were wounded. Xing Daorong even suffered damage to his only chicken, which filled him with rage!

“Break the formation!” Lin Yue roared, leading the cavalry that had arrived earlier to charge the Xiongnu’s heavily armored cavalry!

These ten thousand heavily armored cavalry had already suffered heavy losses; Lin Yue wanted to annihilate them in one fell swoop!

As long as this heavily armored cavalry was completely wiped out, it would not be a complete loss. At the very least, it would make the Right Wise King bleed heavily.

After all, the cost of forging a heavily armored cavalry unit far exceeded ten times that of ordinary Soldiers!

Eliminating these ten thousand heavy cavalry now would also reduce many hidden dangers for future major battles!

The situation completely reversed. The White Horse Righteous Cavalry cavalry surrounded the Xiongnu heavy cavalry. This wide road now resembled a meat grinder, ultimately annihilating the Xiongnu heavy cavalry.

“Po Nu, have you found the lamp oil?” Lin Yue asked after pulling his Miao Blade from a heavily armored cavalryman.

“Reporting to General, This humble general found some, but not much. This humble general also found some weeds and dry wood, enough for us to start another fire,” Zhao Ponu replied.

The reason he had disappeared from the beginning was precisely this: he had led ten thousand White Horse Camp cavalry to roam the entire Encampment, killing Xiongnu Soldiers while also searching for lamp oil. Because relying solely on these two hundred thousand White Horse Righteous Cavalry to break through this Encampment of nearly a million Xiongnu cavalry was simply a fantasy!

Therefore, his biggest mission in this battle was to find lamp oil to accelerate the chaos in the Xiongnu Encampment!

“Bring it here, and also bring back the bodies of our Brothers. We’re going home!” Lin Yue said gravely.

“Understood!” Zhao Ponu replied excitedly.

In fact, without Lin Yue speaking, the White Horse Righteous Cavalry Soldiers were already doing so. They all did their best to carry their comrades, to bring the deceased home—it was their mutual promise!

On the continuously arriving White Horse Righteous Cavalry warhorses, some carried one person, some two, and some even carried four people. The warhorses beneath them struggled to move, swaying so much they couldn't even trot.

Fortunately, with the Army now gathered, some of the cavalry who were lucky enough not to find their comrades’ bodies spontaneously took over carrying their comrades, ensuring that every warhorse could run at full speed.

As the horn continued to sound, more and more Qin Army Soldiers gathered around Lin Yue, but the numbers were still insufficient, even counting the comrades carried on the cavalry’s warhorses.

Lin Yue decided to wait another fifteen minutes. He had brought these two hundred thousand people, and he would do his utmost to bring them back!

“Go make the arrangements,” Lin Yue said to Zhao Ponu. Once everyone returned, it would be time for them to set fires and flee.

During this time, he was not idle but constantly searched for Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun had not yet returned, which made him a little worried.

But his worries were soon proven unnecessary, for Zhao Yun returned riding a white horse!

“My Lord!” Zhao Yun shouted.

“Zi Long!” Zhao Yun responded.

“My Lord, Xiongnu cavalry have already poured in from all sides of the Encampment!” Zhao Yun said.

“Are you uninjured?” Lin Yue asked.

“No, but I also failed to slay the enemy General,” Zi Long replied.

As he spoke, three Military Generals appeared not far away.

【name: Luan Di - Duobu

Identity: Right Wise King (Xiongnu)

Martial Power: 96

Intelligence: 88

Command: 91

Politics: 83

Charm: 81】

The Xiongnu Right Wise King!

Lin Yue then quickly scanned the other two Xiongnu Military Generals, realizing they were also First-rate Military Generals.

However, of these two Xiongnu Military Generals, one had blood flowing unceasingly from his abdomen, but strangely, he showed no reaction; the other had lost an arm, clearly from the recent fierce battle. The only one completely unharmed was the Right Wise King, but his brows were tightly furrowed, clearly indicating he found the current situation troublesome.

At this moment, the Right Wise King stepped forward and said: “Zhao Yun, I see you are a hero. I don’t understand why you would humble yourself under such a Military General who lacks martial integrity!”

“Zi Long, don’t look at me,” Lin Yue said somewhat anxiously.

At the same time, he cursed inwardly, ‘What’s wrong with this person? I don’t even know about the corpse-whipping incident, why are you all constantly slandering me!’

“Understood.” Zhao Yun, hearing this, stiffly shifted his gaze back to the Right Wise King.

“Why don’t you defect to me? I will ask the Chanyu for the position of Right Great General for you, to oversee the hundred nations of the grasslands, with a million cavalry and tens of millions of people under your Command. Isn’t that better than being a mere Xiaowei now?” the Right Wise King said gravely.

“Enemy General, stop! Dare to take another step forward, and do not blame my blade and spear for being merciless!” Zhao Yun raised his long spear and rebuked.

The Right Wise King stiffly halted his steps. Before he could speak again, a loud wailing sound rang out!

“My King!”
