Mythical Three Kingdoms
Chapter 1865 - 1713: The Situation Will Soon Be Settled (Part 2)
Huyan Chu silently glanced at Mii Lohe, saying nothing. At this point, Huyan Chu was too lazy to bother with such small matters. Ever since the Northern Huns Guards led by Chouhun had killed more than half in just One Incense Stick’s Time, Huyan Chu had gradually been prepared.
[As expected, Qiu Linbei charged through, and with the Wolf Spirit Soldier’s assault capability combined with Qiu Linbei’s Chaos Formation Talent, they could quickly break through and enter. Under his talent’s influence, it’s impossible for anyone to stop him from leading his troops into the main camp.]
Huyan Chu stood silently on the high cart, watching Qiu Linbei charge into Guan Yu’s main camp. The originally continuous military formation of Guan Yu’s Army suddenly fell into chaos, with Qiu Linbei directly guiding the Northern Huns Elite Cavalry and the Northern Huns Guards led by Chouhun to converge.
It can be said that as long as this convergence succeeds, for Huyan Chu, this battle is more than halfway completed. Though the Han Army’s Military Spirit Legion is strong, it was obvious they had exerted all their strength. And although the Northern Huns Guards were currently in dire straits, as long as reinforcements with Elite Soldiers were received, their combat strength could instantly recover to fifty percent.
Even if the entire Hun Guard Corps recovers, facing the more than two hundred thousand elite Han troops only leads to a dead end. However, once the Northern Huns Guards recover, the Han Army’s main force will inevitably focus on them.
At that time, Huyan Chu would naturally lead the remaining few Northern Huns Elites to charge. Lin Han and Lin Qu, who had hidden their strength and only provided central defense, would also launch an attack alongside Huyan Chu.
These two were bodyguards that Huyan Chu had never sent to the battlefield before, even during the chaotic battles in Central Asia, they had only focused on cultivation. They are among the top experts in Northern Huns.
Both have cultivation levels comparable to Qiu Linbei and are indeed masters of Ultimate Inner Qi Manifestation. They are also Huyan Chu’s trusted aides, two major bodyguards who have long guarded the corner of Huyan Chu’s tent.
More importantly, even Qiu Linbei had not detected that these two were masters of Ultimate Inner Qi Manifestation, so naturally, Huyan Chu was confident that the Han Army would certainly have no knowledge of them.
Therefore, Huyan Chu was willing to gamble, and at that time, he himself would lead the two super experts commanding the remaining Northern Huns Elites in a fight to the death. And in the center, Chouhun would lead the Northern Huns Guards in a desperate counterattack, forcing the Han Army to place all their main forces on his and Chouhun’s paths to minimize their own losses.
That would be when Qiu Linbei escapes alive. With his Chaos Formation Talent and a full understanding of the cause and effect, no matter how painful it is, Qiu Linbei would understand that the survival of the entire tribe rests on his shoulders, and escaping is not shameful. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
As to whether the Han Army would pursue Qiu Linbei, Huyan Chu did not care. Indeed, Qiu Linbei, whether in terms of strength or status, is worth pursuing, but this depends on the comparison.
In terms of status, he, the Chanyu of Northern Huns, Huyan Chu is still surrounded. In terms of strength, Chouhun is leading Northern Huns’ only Military Spirit Legion. Eliminating the two of them essentially means the end of the Huns’ orthodoxy. Huyan Chu did not think the Han Army would be ignorant of what choice to make.
As for the Han Army sending forces to pursue Qiu Linbei, Huyan Chu was not worried. Even if Qiu Linbei couldn’t win, he could escape. His Chaos Formation Talent not only suits breaking formations but also is apt for breaking through encirclements, which is an important reason why Huyan Chu was willing to entrust Northern Huns’ future to Qiu Linbei.
"Can you guys do it? I see Qiu Linbei is about to break through the outer perimeter and converge with the Military Spirit Legion. Cai Yang and Wei Yan actually couldn’t hold him!" Chen Xi said somewhat frantically to Zhou Yu.
"Originally, General Wei and General Cai’s road wasn’t very strong to begin with. Furthermore, in the situation where the Military Spirit Legion acts last, no matter how we deduce, there’s no way to prevent the first convergence of the Northern Huns Guards and Northern Huns Elites," Zhou Yu said irritably.
"After all, Chouhun was the last to set off, and apart from leading the Military Spirit Legion, he also led some of the Northern Huns Elites," Jia Xu said with a slight sigh.
"In fact, that’s exactly the case. Chouhun himself leads over ten thousand Northern Huns Elites, and being the last one to join the battle, unless we can eliminate the entire Northern Huns Guard Corps at the first instant, avoiding the first convergence is entirely impossible," Fa Zheng spread his hands, looking helpless. They had deduced this situation many times, but it was futile.
"So why did you let Qiu Linbei come back?" Chen Xi thought it through and indeed it was the case, so he asked by changing the subject.
"Zichuan, you also know we let him return. We all know General Wei and General Cai can’t handle Qiu Linbei. They can suppress him, but it’s impossible to defeat him. Yet, we still let them face Qiu Linbei. Don’t you understand what it means?" Chen Qun said, patting Chen Xi’s shoulder.
"Uh, you mean you’re intentionally attracting Qiu Linbei to converge, but what’s the significance?" Chen Xi furrowed his brows. "Qiu Linbei isn’t weak; we don’t have many people who can surely win against him. Plus, after he converges with the Northern Huns Guards, it’s even harder to deal with, isn’t it?"
"Whether it’s hard to deal with or not, we don’t know. But we unanimously estimate that the Northern Huns Chanyu regards himself as a chess piece, under this premise we deduced another possibility, Qiu Linbei might be the hope of Northern Huns," Xun Youi spoke up.
Chen Xi couldn’t help but pause, then nodded. From a certain angle, it does seem particularly reasonable.
"This is Ziyang standing from the Chanyu’s perspective, I and Xiaoo Zhi estimated the people’s hearts, from Zizhongg’s calculation of the situation obained the conclusion," Guo Jia casually said.
"So, do you mean to directly eliminate Qiu Linbei?" Chen Xi asked, rubbing his chin.
"That’s not it. We’re actually curious about what the Northern Huns Chanyu wants to do. We all think he has some sort of trump card," Chen Gong, who had been silent, slowly spoke.
Cheng Yu looked unsatisfied at Chen Gong, but Chen Gong acted like he didn’t notice, and Chen Xi heard Fa Zheng repeatedly murmuring about a meteorite explosion.
"So, what about the situations you’ve assessed?" Chen Xi rolled his eyes, ignoring Fa Zheng’s comment, and turned to ask Sima Lang.
"General Dian, General Xuu, and General Zhou are still here, aren’t they? We also have a Tiger Guard Army that’s yet to move, prepared for the Northern Huns Chanyu. We’re all ready to see the Northern Huns Chanyu’s killer move. At that time, as soon as they make any move, Lord Xuande and Lord Cao will take action," Sima Lang replied.
"And there’s also Bofu," Zhou Yu added quietly, to which Chen Xi rolled his eyes. Sun Ce was enjoying the battle ahead, and when the Northern Huns Chanyu makes a move, whether Sun Ce will remember the three major figures and their Tiger Guard Armies instructing how to teach them a lesson is questionable.
"So, there shouldn’t be much problem, but somehow, the convergence of Qiu Linbei and the Northern Huns Guards still feels wrong," Chen Xi said with a frown. "What if Qiu Linbei completely breaks through the defense line, allowing the Northern Huns Elites and Guards to converge?"
"On one hand, Guan Yunchang is a rare good general. Though disadvantaged by Qiu Linbei’s Legion Talent, there’s absolutely no way he would let Qiu Linbei shatter the defense line. Moreover, there’s another reason—oh, here they come!" Zhou Yu’s mouth curved upward, a smug look on his face.
Just then, Xiahou Yuan and Huang Zhong, who Zhou Yu had initially dispatched, successfully broke through the Miscellaneous Hun’s wings, charging from the outside toward the central area of the raging battle.
Simultaneously, Zhang Xiu, Zhang He, and Chen Dao charged in blood-covered from the left, while Yu Jin’s Legion, having successfully penetrated, dealt severe damage to the Miscellaneous Hun’s left wing. As the Miscellaneous Hun’s left wing began scattering, they forcefully utilized their Legion Talent, condensing their own troop’s Cloud Qi in the chaos, completely destroying the left wing’s Cloud Qi.
With just this one move, Yu Jin succeeded in collapsing over a hundred thousand Miscellaneous Hun, directly disabling the left wing of the entire Miscellaneous Hun Legion. As a vast number of Han Army Infantry poured in, Yu Jin completely suppressed the entire side of the Northern Huns, and began deploying more troops to infiltrate the rear of the entire Miscellaneous Hun army.
