Ouyang Shuo led the army from the side of the battlefield to directly stab into the back of the enemy.
The current Tuqi King of the Left was planning to retreat, so he was gathering his personal guards. Who would have guessed that just one hundred meters after they left, Ouyang Shuo would kill his way over?
"Tuqi King of the Left, where do you think you're going?"
Ouyang Shuo rotated his primordial energy and shouted, and his voice echoed through the wilderness.
On the battlefield, both sides could hear this shout.
When Huo Qubing heard his voice, his eyes constricted; he felt astonished. He did not think that this player Lord that had not revealed anything before him would possess such a strong and deep cultivation.
"What an amazing person," Huo Qubing muttered.
The strength of the Divine Martial Guards had already shocked him. Hence, he was curious about the might of their leader.
From that shout, Huo Qubing gained a little understanding.
Unknowingly, Huo Qubing started to think back to the king. Both of them kept their cards close to their chests. However, when they showed their skills, it was truly shocking.
This was the first time Huo Qubing had started to feel interested in Ouyang Shuo himself.
……
When the Xiongnu cavalry heard that loud shout, they all turned around with dubious expressions.
The scene that they saw left them in disbelief.
They were still fighting on the front lines, while their king was actually preparing to desert them.
The Xiongnu cavalry screamed.
This was definitely a fatal blow to their morale.
Huo Qubing was extremely sharp. He immediately grabbed the chance to launch a relentless attack.
At the same time, he ordered people to recruit the surrendered to affect the fighting spirit of the Xiongnu cavalry.
When Tuqi King of the Left heard this shout, his expression turned exceedingly ugly, and he did not dare to raise his head.
A sense of guilt and shame lingered in his heart.
It seemed that it would be hard for this king of the desert to raise his head in front of his people ever again.
At the sight of this, Ouyang Shuo decided to leave the Han Army and Xiongnu forces to attack the main Xiongnu Army. He would lead the Divine Martial Guards to chase after the Tuqi King of the Left.
The prideful Little White ran at the front of the army, looking exceptionally mighty.
However, Ouyang Shuo had not expected this chase to last for ten odd miles.
The Xiongnu war horses were all exceptional. Moreover, the king’s mount was an elite of the Xiongnu horses, comparable to the Qingfu horses.
To chase up to them was not an easy matter.
Furthermore, this region was also within the power range of the king.
No matter how familiar Huyan Qiu was with the area, his knowledge was still a distance from the king who owned this place. The king was also extremely crafty, and he used the geography of the area to trick the Divine Martial Guards several times.
As they continued the chase, the distance between the two slowly grew wider and wider.
This was no surprise, as Huo Qubing's troops had chased them all the way to Khentii Mountain and still failed to catch him. The craftiness of the Xiongnu king was far beyond an average level.
Another half an hour passed, and the Tuqi King of the Left had completely disappeared from their sights.
Luckily, he still had Little White.
His scent was still within Little White's range.
When he say that they could not make it otherwise, Ouyang Shuo gritted his teeth and bore the pain. He took out the scroll and directly tore it.
A white light shone and charged into the sky, covering the three thousand Divine Martial Guards. The white light flashed and disappeared into the bodies of the Qingfu horses.
Instantly, the Qingfu horses went crazy and charged forward.
This scroll was the Rapid Troop Movement Scroll that Ouyang Shuo had spent 200 battle resource points to purchase.
Originally, Ouyang Shuo had wanted to use this item for the final sprint. Now that the quest line was in his hands, he naturally did not need it anymore.
Even the remaining Zhang Liao troops numbered less than a thousand.
Zhang Liao had made it clear that he had given up on this chase. He knew that the relationship between Consonance City and Shanhai City stood at an exceptionally sensitive stage, so he naturally needed to act carefully.
In order to kill the Tuqi King of the Left, Ouyang Shuo was paying a great price.
After all, even if the scroll was not used when assaulting enemies, it had miraculous effects in other areas.
Rapid Troop Movement Scroll: After use, 50% increase in troop movement speed for four hours.
Under the strong buff of the scroll, the Divine Martial Guards were like soldiers from heaven, as they madly charged across the grasslands. In less than an hour, the forces of the Tuqi King of the Left once again appeared in his field of sight.
The rumbling sounds of horse hooves made the king’s heart tremble.
Moments ago, he had started to feel gleeful about finally getting rid of that annoying fly. He did not expect the enemy to appear here.
Looking at the enemy troops that were getting closer and closer, his face turned ashen white. He could not imagine what kind of war horse they rode that could travel so quickly.
It seemed like no one could answer this question.
In an instant, the Divine Martial Guards had already arrived at their doorsteps.
At this time, any words were useless.
In this battle, it was either you die or I live.
Ouyang Shuo personally led his troops and jumped right into the enemy formation. His goal was the heavily protected king. This Xiongnu noble freaked out like a bird reacting to the twang of a bow.
The king had less than two thousand personal guards.
Facing the three thousand Divine Martial Guards, they had no ability to react.
The successive changes today were too exciting and exhilarating for the Xiongnu people.
Ouyang Shuo rode Qingdian, and the Chixiao Sword shone with a cold light. He moved amongst the enemy lines as he pleased. He used the killing sword’s crowd control effects to its pinnacle.
No one could stop Ouyang Shuo's advance.
Ring after ring of Xiongnu cavalry troops were sliced open like paper.
Especially under the buff of the scroll, the assault from the Divine Martial Guards was incredibly alluring. The massive horse lances were like lightning bolts that pierced the enemy formation.
If the Divine Martial Guards did not possess strong bodies, the force behind the horse lances could have caused heavy damage to both sides. Even so, their hands felt numb from the impact.
On the other hand, the Xiongnu cavalry were similarly in a bad shape.
The high speed horse lances were no different from the death god, as they directly gored through multiple cavalry.
During the first assault, they pierced more than half of the cavalry and instantly killed them.
Such a battle result could be called a miracle.
Even the Divine Martial Guards themselves could not believe it.
Only Ouyang Shuo’s expression remained unchanged, as he was clear that this was the strength of momentum.
Originally, he had wanted to do this to impress people.
The Divine Martial Guards swung their horse lances. However, there were too many bodies strung on, so they actually failed to swing the bodies off.
"Abandon the lances!"
When Wang Feng saw the situation, he made a decision.
Dang!
The horse lances and the bodies strung on them were all thrown to the ground. The entire battlefield instantly transformed into hell.
"Use your blades!"
Wang Feng shouted out once more.
Shua! They unsheathed their Tang Blades in an orderly fashion.
The entire process was as smooth as flowing water, taking less than half a minute.
With that, one could see how well trained they were.
When the Xiongnu soldiers saw their actions, they were stunned.
The current Tuqi King of the Left wished that his enemy was Huo Qubing. He would rather face that general than the devil before him.
The assault continued.
The killing was far from over.
Ouyang Shuo led the personal guards and approached the Tuqi King of the Left. Only a row of his most loyal soldiers remained.
"Killing all life!"
The blood aura on the Chixiao Sword corporealized and Ouyang Shuo did not hesitate to activate the 6th stroke of the killing sword.
The blood aura suddenly shot out from the sword and turned into sharp crimson daggers that reaped life after life. In a moment, the ten soldiers collectively collapsed.
The entire battlefield fell completely silent.
The Tuqi King of the Left was so scared that he shrieked.
As the killing sword struck out, blood flowed.
Even though the king had participated in hundreds of battle, he had not seen such a high level sword stroke.
Ouyang Shuo grinned, as the Chixiao Sword chopped down without any hesitation. Before the king could react, his head was already floating in the air.
The Tuqi King of the Left had died!
In just a short while, Ouyang Shuo had obtained ten thousand battle contribution points.
The moment the king died, his remaining forces lost their will to fight and wanted to surrender. However, Ouyang Shuo did not accept it. These soldiers did not amount to much, so he might as well kill them.
Most importantly, the sky was turning black, and he still needed to lead his troops to rush back to the camp before nightfall. The effects of the Rapid Troop Movement Scroll would last for two more hours.
The Xiongnu surrendered soldiers could not enjoy the buff of the scroll.
Hence, bringing them along would only be a burden.
In less than half an hour, a large portion of the remaining soldiers fell to the ground and died. As for those that escaped, Ouyang Shuo had no intentions of chasing them.
After the battle, the Divine Martial Guards swiftly cleaned up the battlefield.
Most importantly, they picked up the horse lances they had dropped in the battle. The Combat Logistics Department had crafted the horse lances that they wielded, and each lance was worth ten gold.
Ouyang Shuo used a torn cloth to wrap the Tuqi King of the Left's head and hung it behind the warhorse. A while later, he led his troops forward like a tornado.
He did not even bother to check the items that were dropped. Instead, he hurriedly kept them in his bag.
No one would know that the king of Xiongnu had fallen here.
Before leaving, Ouyang Shuo had started to think about the matter of the Khentii Mountains. There was nothing standing in the way between them and the mountains.
The sun set in the west.
The last bit of sunset reluctantly backed off from the horizon.
A circular moon slowly crept up into the night sky.
On the main battlefield, it was an utter mess, even tragic.
Under the command of Huo Qubing, the remaining Xiongnu cavalry finally surrendered unhappily. After this battle, the Tuqi King of the Left had lost most of his forces, and they would not pose a threat to the Han border.
Huo Qubing rode his warhorse and stood on the battlefield, as he quietly looked into the distance.
It was like he was waiting for someone to arrive.
