As soon as Yurov ran away, the Huns army was shaken across the board and completely defeated.

They naively thought that they could escape from the clutches of the Great Qin Cavalry, but what awaited them was ruthless slaughter.

In less than half an hour, the Huns' infantry had been massacred and captured, leaving only a handful of Huns' cavalry who escaped.

Ying Xi immediately ordered a full-scale pursuit to eliminate all evil.

In Shenmu City, seeing reinforcements arriving and defeating the Huns, Wang Lun was greeted out of the city with less than a hundred remaining garrison troops.

After chatting for a few words, Ying Xin turned his attention to Wang Lun and the group of defenders.

All of them had injuries of varying severity, and their faces did not show any flinch, but rather a sense of indomitable fighting spirit.

Although there are only a few dozen people left, they still stick to their posts and fight until the last moment.

This fighting spirit alone won Ying Xi's admiration.

Moreover, the abilities of these people who survived the arduous battle are not inferior to those of veterans who have fought hundreds of battles.

For Ying Xi, who lacks soldiers, this is a veteran who delivers goods to his door.

"Wang Lun County Lieutenant, you guys defended the city, you are commendable for your loyalty and bravery. I will definitely report it to the court and reward you."

"You should go down to rest and heal your injuries first. As for the defense of Shenmu City and the aftermath, my people will take care of everything."

With Ying's current official position, it would not have been his turn to take over the defense of Shenmu City.

However, the Shenmu County Magistrate fled, and everyone in Wang Lun's group was injured. With a lot of gratitude, they followed Meng Wu and others down to heal their injuries.

"Lord, Mr. Yao Guangxiao is back."

A soldier reported.

Not long after, Yao Guangxiao rode back.

The monk's robes were soaked with blood, and there were still wet blood stains on his face. The beads on his neck had already been dyed into snow beads.

"Amitabha!"

Yao Guangxiao clasped his hands together, made a Buddha name, and then made a report:

"According to the order of the lord, the great monk took advantage of the victory to pursue and personally beheaded the Xiongnu Zuoxian Wang Yuluofu."

"The great monk did a good job." Ying Xi nodded with satisfaction, suddenly thought of something, and asked casually: "How to deal with those prisoners."

"Uh!" Yao Guangxiao scratched the glowing head and said seriously: "My lord, haven't you done your duty of eradicating evil? The great monk drove the captives to a nearby stream and invited them to go underground to meet the Dragon King of the Four Seas."

Meet the Dragon King of the Four Seas?

Ying Xi hesitated for a moment and then realized what Yao Guangxiao meant. He patted the table and said, "Master, what are you doing?"

"Lord, calm down. The great monk completely obeyed your order and killed all of them. You can't just use the bird to hide and take the blame on the great monk."

Yao Guangxiao still spoke righteously, and his expression clearly said, I am just a follower of orders.

"I asked you to destroy the Huns soldiers, but I didn't ask you to destroy the rivers and streams."

"You threw all those dirty corpses of Hun soldiers into the stream, polluting the entire stream and making it difficult for the people nearby to get water. You are simply committing a grave sin."

Ying Xi was not angry at all when he destroyed this group of Xiongnu soldiers. Instead, he raised his hands in approval.

Even if he captures them, Ying Xi will not show any mercy to these guys with human faces and animal hearts.

What made him angry was that Yao Guangxiao killed too much and even ignored the most basic livelihood issues.

Being reminded by Ying Xi, Yao Guangxiao touched his head and suddenly realized: "My lord taught me that the poor monk has realized his mistake. The poor monk will deal with it immediately and will never cause trouble to the people nearby."

Yao Guangxiao's matter was left to him to resolve on his own. After turning the page, Ying Xi set his sights on Meiji City and the Hun Royal Court.

In these two battles, more than 18,000 Huns were wiped out.

According to Yao Guangxiao's previous intelligence, even if the Huns sent other troops to raid homes and plunder homes, there should still be 20,000 troops in the royal court of the Huns.

With nearly 5,000 troops in Ying Xi's hands, even in a head-on confrontation, there may not be a chance of winning.

If you hit another one and catch him off guard, you have a greater chance of winning.

The soldiers are very fast, Ying Xi only stayed in Shenmu City for one night, and early the next morning he led his troops and horses to attack Meiji City.

Wang Lun learned that Ying Xi actually wanted to lead people to destroy the Huns. While he was shocked and admired, he also had the idea of ​​joining.

Because Wang Lun and his soldiers were all injured, Ying Xi did not take these people with him, but ordered them to be sent back to Lincheng to rest.

Thousands of soldiers and horses stormed Meiji City with great momentum. After traveling for a day and night, they finally arrived and set up camp twenty miles outside Meiji City.

When the Xiongnu moved south and surrendered to the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty gave the Xiongnu land in the Hetao grassland area and allowed them to recuperate and reproduce. The royal court of the Xiongnu was established in Meiji City.

Ying Xi originally thought that he could cut through the mess quickly and attack the Huns' lair before they could react, wiping them out in one fell swoop.

When they arrived outside Meiji City, they received news that the Huns soldiers seemed to be prepared. They wanted to make a sneak attack and take them by surprise, but it would definitely not work.

What I'm worried about now is how to deal with the Huns' troops.

As a nomadic tribe who grew up on horseback, the Huns were able to serve as soldiers, and everyone was good at riding.

It is definitely not a wise move to rely on your own number of soldiers and horses to consume, or even in terms of combat effectiveness, to go head-to-head with the opponent.

That way, even if they win, it will be a miserable victory.

Once the opponent fails, they can still hold on to the city and not be able to escape.

What Ying Xi wants is to destroy the Xiongnu as quickly as possible at the minimum cost.

"Lord, I have a plan to deal with the Huns army, but you must be fully prepared."

Yao Guangxiao said: "Let's first choose a dangerous place, set up camp, lay out a large number of traps, stop the horses, and then prepare thousands of cattle."

Hearing Yao Guangxiao mention cows, Ying Xi seemed to understand what the great monk wanted to do.

Ying Xi immediately ordered Wang Meng to choose a place to set up camp, and sent out cavalry with Meng Wu to go to the Hetao grassland to rob the Huns' cattle.

If there is a shortage of cattle in other places, the most indispensable thing in the Hetao Grassland is cattle and sheep. The Huns raised a lot of them and caught a lot of them.

In order to provoke the Huns to leave the city and fight to the death with him, Ying Xi sent two gifts that he had prepared long ago into Meiji City.
