Chapter 207 Father, I will take you back to Xianyang!
However, they are also flesh and blood.
Who wouldn't be terrified when seeing 25,000 grassland warriors transformed from a dark cloud-like formation into a field of blood and flesh?
Even Maodun was stunned when he saw the retreat of the Snow Dragon Cavalry.
Of course, he was only distracted for a short time, and soon came to his senses: "They can't fire crossbows anymore!"
He gritted his teeth and issued an order: "The entire army should pursue! Destroy this cavalry at all costs!"
The Great Snow Dragon Riders immediately turned around and galloped away. Everyone ran like an arrow, except Fusu.
He put on silver armor, but could not control the dragon colt, so he could only follow on the best Hun warhorse.
When things are going smoothly on normal days, the war horses can still barely keep up.
However, at this moment, when the strategic intention needed to be achieved by relying on the speed of the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry, Fusu's horse was instantly left far behind.
Fusu's heart instantly turned cold.
This…
You all left, what should I do? !
Just as Fusu was terrified, he suddenly felt a huge force coming from behind him. He flew into the air and landed steadily on another big snow dragon horse beside him.
"General Zhao?"
"Fusu, it's me."
Ying Heng took off his face armor and responded.
Fusu was so shocked that he cried out: "What?!"
"His Majesty?!!"
"How could it be you?!"
"You...you are not dead?!!"
The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly.
Fusu's strength is limited after all. At this critical moment, his weaknesses are exposed and he is unable to keep up with the sophisticated tactics of the Great Snow Dragon Riders.
In desperation, the First Emperor rescued him from danger.
He could not bear to watch his beloved eldest son die under the arrows of the Huns.
At this moment, the First Emperor decided to personally teach Fusu how to command the battlefield, so he revealed his true identity to him.
Fusu had been in a state of shock for the past few days. As he got to know the Great Snow Dragon Riders more and more, his shock deepened.
However, no shock was greater than that of witnessing His Majesty's return.
During this period, all of Fusu's emotional ups and downs were caused by the obituary in Xianyang announcing the emperor's death.
At that moment, he felt like the sky was collapsing.
Then, he realized that as the eldest son of the Qin Dynasty, he must take on this heavy burden and shoulder the responsibilities of an emperor just like His Majesty!
So, when he learned that the Huns were invading, he joined the battle without hesitation!
Then, the bravery of the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry shocked him, and what shocked him even more was that his father was not only alive, but had become the commander-in-chief of the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry?
what on earth is it? !
He remembered that this Great Snow Dragon Cavalry was the Thirteenth Brother’s personal guard.
How could Your Majesty be among the Thirteenth Brother’s personal soldiers and even be promoted to general?
How can ordinary people achieve such a high position?
Wasn’t it the Thirteenth Brother who conferred the title personally?
Now, they have sent a vanguard to resist the 60,000 Hun cavalry. Is your Majesty going to fight the Huns with his flesh and blood?
Thirteenth brother, what exactly is he planning? Does he really want to usurp the throne?
These questions flooded into Fusu's mind like a tide, and his thoughts were in a mess.
"Father? Is it really you?!"
"How come you look so young?"
"You...you haven't...uh, how come you are still alive...uh, you...look healthy?"
"Your Majesty, as far as I know, aren't the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry the personal army of my Thirteenth Brother? How come you are serving as a general here~"
"Did my Thirteenth Brother do something to you? He wants to usurp the throne, so he sent you to die?!" "Don't worry, father. When the war here is over, I will lead 300,000 troops and fight back to Xianyang with you. I will definitely help you take back the throne!"
"Father...shut up!"
Before Fusu could finish his question, he was coldly interrupted by the First Emperor.
He sat on the Qin Shi Huang's horse and threw out his doubts like a string of cannonballs.
However, the First Emperor obviously had no intention of answering.
For one thing, the timing was wrong.
On the other hand, the First Emperor really didn't know how to explain the fact that he became the captain of Xiao Shisan's personal guard, the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry.
All this seems to be just a coincidence.
"I am not dead yet. There is something hidden in the matter of the throne. We will discuss other matters after this war is over!"
"Your Majesty... Your son obeys your command!"
In the end, Fusu obeyed etiquette and dared not say anything more.
When the First Emperor heard this, he sighed quietly in his heart.
Alas, Fusu was eventually bound by etiquette and became more well-behaved.
If he is not allowed to ask, he dare not speak, and he will do whatever he is told to do.
If Xiao Shisan were here, he might ask bluntly: "Father, what are you doing here? I am here to deal with the Huns, you should go back and have a rest!"
Or he would say in surprise: "Father, you are still alive? Why are you still a soldier?"
He might even say, "Huh? Who dares to pretend to be my father? Behead him!"
Thinking of Xiao Shisan's unconventional personality, Ying Zheng couldn't help but smile.
Oh, if I hadn't reached the late stage of Grand Master, and suddenly appeared on the day when Xiao Shisan was promoted, he might really find an excuse to subdue me!
Hahahaha, let’s see how he reacts then decide how much suffering he should suffer!
After all, who could have expected that he was not only a grandmaster, but also the general of the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry!
As his thoughts surged, the First Emperor and Fusu caught up with the main force of the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry.
This was not the time to reminisce. As soon as the Great Snow Dragon Riders turned to retreat, Maodun Chanyu realized that this was the time to pursue them!
Of course, a moment's reaction time is still needed.
Because Maodun's 25,000 cavalrymen who charged head-on were shot through before they even touched the Qin army!
The Qin army was so ruthless that their attack was so fierce, not just two volleys, but ten volleys!
To be honest, at that moment, Maodun felt mixed emotions.
Shock, fear, panic, regret, heartache, all kinds of emotions came flooding in.
As time went by, Maodun felt more and more frightened, panicked and heartbroken, and he became more and more aware of the terrifying nature of those 3,000 cavalrymen.
These three thousand people must not be left behind!
If we don't take advantage of the fact that their arrows are exhausted and destroy them in one fell swoop, by the time they regroup and attack again, our cavalry will lose at least 20,000 more people!
At this moment, the entire grassland was mobilized, and there were only 200,000 cavalry available.
Currently, there are only 100,000 cavalrymen left in the Qin territory, and nearly 40,000 have been lost!
If this goes on, and we allow these three thousand silver-armored Qin soldiers to cut our flesh several times, won’t we be facing annihilation?
So, Maodun Chanyu, suppressing his great grief, issued an order to kill at all costs!
This order was beyond the expectations of the First Emperor.
His original plan was to defeat the enemy's 20,000 to 30,000 main cavalry in one fell swoop, to make the Huns feel fearful, to defeat their will to fight, and to force them to retreat temporarily.
As long as they can hold off this wave of the Huns' strongest offensive and wait for the arrival of the 13,000 Divine Arrow Battalion and Golden Spear Soldiers, the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry will be able to catch their breath for a while.
