Chapter 110 Hun Reinforcements
Chapter 110 Hun Reinforcements
When Wei Yu and Bai Shuyang returned to Wanbai City, the war was nearing its end and the Dati army had already attacked Wanbai City.
The city gate was filled with corpses and blood, and the air was filled with a strong stench.
For the first time, Wei Yu felt so intuitively that he was really in a real world, at least for this body, he was in a real world.
Bai Shuyang drew the spear from his back, rode his horse over the corpses and entered Wanbai City.
Wei Yu followed closely behind, his target was only one, Mori.
She was not riding fast, and both the Xiongnu army and the Da'an army tried to avoid her. Even the two small groups that were fighting would stop and make way for her to pass when they saw her coming.
After she reached a safe distance, the two sides started fighting.
It feels like a Wolf Warrior. Others hang national flags, but she uses her face. After all, she is the queen of Daliao and the goddess of Wanbai City.
At the west gate of Wanbai City, Wei Yu finally found Mori.
Mori wanted to escape from Wanbai City to the west, but was intercepted by General Yuan, and a fierce battle broke out between the two sides.
Wei Yu took out the pistol from the leather holster, loaded the magazine, and loaded it.
————Time goes back to the beginning————
Just as Wei Yu was about to mount his horse, he was stopped by a familiar voice.
"Why are you here?"
Chuan Yan took out a box mysteriously.
"I delivered the medicine and called this for you."
Wei Yu opened the box and found a modern pistol inside.
The design drawings of the pistol were given to Chuan Yan together with the design drawings of the cannon.
"You guys figured it out so quickly?"
"Because the parts inside are so small and complicated, we made one, and it's only one. The bullets inside are also gone once they are used up."
Wei Yu opened the magazine and found it was full of bullets.
"That's enough." Wei Yu raised his pistol and pointed it at an empty area to familiarize himself with the feel. "Have you tested it? How's the accuracy? Is the recoil strong?"
"We've tested it. The accuracy is fine, but the recoil is a bit strong. Remember to hold the gun straight with both hands when you use it."
Wei Yu didn't load the gun, he just pulled the trigger and fired two shots into the air with a "Pa Pa~~" sound.
"Thanks. I was really sleepy and you brought me the pillow just in time."
Wei Yu put the pistol into the holster, put it on his waist and jumped on his horse.
----Now----
Wei Yu raised the gun and pointed it at Mori's forehead.
Mori had been fighting with General Yuan, moving back and forth. She followed and aimed her gun, but she didn't shoot for a long time.
She slowly adjusted her breathing.
"Bang, snap."
The sound of gunfire and bullets piercing flesh followed.
The loud noise startled the horse under Wei Yu. The horse raised its front legs and almost threw Wei Yu off.
General Yuan pounced and pulled Wei Yu off his horse.
Mori ran away quickly holding his right arm, and Wei Yu fired another shot, hitting the man in the abdomen.
Mori fell to the ground, General Yuan jumped up and chopped with his sword, and Mori died instantly.
Wei Yu slumped on the ground, his hands shaking constantly.
General Yuan shouted to the sky, "Mo Li is dead, victory is at hand, brothers, let's fight quickly and decisively."
The morale of the Da'an army soared.
"Charge! Take down Wanbai City."
……
In the face of absolute military strength, there is no need for any tactics at all.
The Xiongnu army suffered a crushing defeat.
Except for the hundred or so civilians who surrendered, no one from the Xiongnu side survived.
The bodies of Mori and several Hun generals were hung on the city gate, and blood was still dripping from their bodies.
Wei Yu suppressed his fear and nausea and looked up at the corpses. Atina was not among them.
Wei Yu searched all over Wanbai City but couldn't find Rong Yi.
She sat on the city wall, the ring and necklace in her hand fluttering in the wind.
This is what she picked up at the door of Atina's mansion. It is Rongyi's most treasured necklace. She might have thrown it away like this unless there was some force majeure that prevented her from doing so.
Wei Yu wrapped the necklace carefully with a handkerchief.
Dazhen's soldiers were cleaning up the last battlefield, separating the dead Xiongnu soldiers from Dazhen's soldiers.
Bai Shuyang and Yuan Yiyan came to report on their work.
Yuan Yiyan said, "Our Dazhen soldiers suffered 3,487 casualties and 10,060 wounded."
"The injured soldiers were treated promptly. As for the soldiers who died in battle, how did you deal with them before?"
“They were all buried on the spot.”
People in ancient times believed that fallen leaves should return to their roots, so does this count as dying in a foreign land?
"If they are cremated, maybe we can bring them back." Wei Yu thought of Rong Yi's ashes necklace, "We have to leave some memories for their families."
"Your Majesty, this is a very good idea. However, the battlefield is so volatile that we'll be lucky to recover their bodies." Yuan Yiyan looked at the endless desert. "There's not even a tree here. I'm afraid we won't be able to burn them."
"War is really cruel." Wei Yu felt like there was something stuck in his throat.
Yuan Yiyan was also in a very heavy mood and sighed, "It has been like this since ancient times."
"The truth is always within our range. As long as we are strong enough, others will not dare to mess with us." Wei Yu is determined to develop national defense capabilities.
Wei Yu turned around and said, "Write down the names of the soldiers who died in the battle. The wounded who could not continue fighting should be returned to the territory of Dazhen. A martyrs' cemetery should be built to properly bury the soldiers who died in the battle."
"Yes."
A soldier came running over anxiously, "Oh no! The Xiongnu reinforcements have arrived."
Wei Yu frowned, it really never ends.
"How is that possible? Which direction is it coming from?" General Yuan asked.
"From the west."
"Didn't the previous war report say that the Xiongnu and the Thirty-Six Kingdoms of the Western Regions formed an alliance? Could it be that they are coming together?" Bai Shuyang said to Wei Yu and General Yuan, "I will go and gather the troops first."
Wei Yu stopped Bai Shuyang and said, "Wait a moment, take the 20,000 soldiers back to protect the safety of the emperor and Prince Ning."
"but……"
"No buts. No one is more important than the emperor's safety right now. Leave this to me and General Yuan. Go quickly."
Bai Shuyang gritted his teeth and led his troops back to the camp.
Wei Yu and General Yuan led their troops to guard the west gate of Wanbai City.
The Hun reinforcements were approaching step by step, and Wei Yu could already see their battle flags clearly.
Wei Yu put his hand on the holster at his waist, ready to fight.
Yuan Yiyan narrowed his eyes and said, "These are the troops of the Xiongnu Chanyu."
"Isn't the power of the Xiongnu Chanyu all in the hands of the eldest prince?" Wei Yu asked.
"That man." Yuan Yiyan pointed at the leader, "He is the confidant of the Xiongnu prince."
Yuan Yiyan touched his chin, "There are no soldiers from the Western Regions here? Their march is so disorganized..."
Yuan Yiyan suddenly shouted, "Quick, retreat to Wanbai City immediately."
"why?"
"They were being chased here. That confidant is a fierce general after all. He couldn't possibly command the troops like that."
Although Wei Yu didn't understand, she believed in Yuan Yiyan's judgment.
"Back to the city."
The Wei Yu people closed the four city gates in the east, south, west and north. "No matter what happens, the city gates must not be opened. Artillerymen, pull the cannons to the city walls, explosive throwers, and archers, prepare."
Everyone is ready.
Wei Yu stood on the city wall to give orders, while Yuan Yiyan was in the center of Wanbai City, watching the four city gates vigilantly.
It was winter, but Wei Yu broke out in a cold sweat.
