Chapter 55: The Burial of the Huns in the Ice Lake

"Oh...... Defeated so quickly? Archers ready to ......"

Zhou Cang's spirits were lifted, he lifted his sword and walked towards the ice lake.

Standing alone on the ice, with a war knife on his shoulder, he has a feeling of being a man and a man.

The footsteps of the defeated Huns were getting closer and louder, and the ice creaked from time to time.

"Chief, there is a man in front of him who will stop him with a knife......"

A Hun soldier reported to Hu Chuquan that Hu Chuquan had already lost his previous high-spirited appearance at this moment, and in just two hours, two warriors under his command were beheaded, and nearly 20,000 soldiers remained at the mouth of the valley forever.

"Leader, the Han people are scheming, and his subordinates suggest that they send a team of 100 people to investigate the truth and ......."

Hu Chuquan's confidant whispered beside Hu Chuquan.

"Well......" Hu Chuquan nodded slightly, although the chasing soldiers in the rear were approaching at this moment, in order to be safe, he still sent someone to try the reality in front of him.

"......"

A team of 100 people cautiously approached Zhou Cang step by step, and Zhou Cang whistled with disdain on his face.

"Pay attention to the concealed ......" After hearing Zhou Cang's code, the lieutenant behind Zhou Cang whispered to the archers who were ambushed on both sides.

"Hey...... Come on, let your grandfather Zhou practice well. ”

Zhou Cang's battle knife was clenched, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Zhou Cang's current strength is already in the late stage of the season, and it is not a piece of cake to deal with these hundred ordinary Hun troops.

However, Zhou Cang's purpose is not so simple, he wants to convince Hu Chuquan that there is no ambush here, and lure Hu Chuquan's entire army to attack.

Killing these hundred 'pioneers' by thunder means made Hu Chuquan have the illusion that Zhou Cang was arrogant and wanted to scare him back with his own strength, so that he could escape to the dead end that had already been set up on the other side.

"Poof"

Zhou Cang's war knife slashed into the body of the Hun soldier, and cleanly eliminated the last Hun soldier.

The big tongue licked the blood on his face, looking unfinished, and the bloodstains were obviously not Zhou Cang's.

"This person is good at martial arts, and the crossbowmen are ready to ......"

"Boom"

The crossbowmen of the Hun army immediately fired arrows at Zhoucang, but the distance was too far, and the cold wind was howling at the moment, and there were few arrows left that could shoot near Zhoucang.

"Leader, the pursuers have already chased after you......"

Hu Chuquan looked at Zhou Jun who was densely wielding spears and broadswords not far behind him, and frowned.

"This man is very powerful, he is trying to scare me away and force me to flee to the east......"

"Rush over to ...... me"

The more Hu Chuquan thought about it, the more he felt that maybe Zhou Cang was playing tricks, and with an order, the 30,000 defeated troops went straight to the ice.

"Squeak"

"Squeak"

"Squeak"

The ice creaked non-stop, and even if the frozen ice surface was solid, tens of thousands of people stepped on it at the same time, and cracks could not be avoided.

"Spread out, spread out quickly......"

Hu Chuquan looked at the ice surface where the cracks were widening, and immediately ordered everyone to disperse.

Zhou Cang looked at the scattered Hun army, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became even brighter.

"Whoosh"

"Whoosh"

Two arrow feathers passed by Zhou Cang, and at this moment Zhou Cang was already within the range of the Xiongnu crossbowmen.

"Shoot the ......"

Zhou Canggao raised his left hand and swung it downward, and the archers who were lying in ambush on both sides fired their arrows in unison, killing the Huns on both sides and forcing them to move closer to the center.

"Damn Han people......" Hu Chuquan looked at the thousands of Han troops that suddenly appeared on both sides, and immediately scolded.

"Rush over ......"

At this time, there was no chance to retreat, and the pursuers led by Xu Huang and Zhang Ren were already approaching.

Hu Chuquan could only fight with his back, and immediately ordered the soldiers to rush over quickly, and only by rushing to the other side of the ice lake could he have a chance to survive.

"Bang"

"Bang"

"Bang"

Zhou Cang constantly slashed the ice with his war knife, and several large cracks appeared on the ice as Zhou Cang's attack appeared.

"Not good...... Stop him......"

Hu Chuquan understood Zhou Cang's intentions, if Zhou Cang was allowed to attack the ice surface like this again, causing the ice surface to break, then he and all the soldiers would fall into the ice lake, and he would definitely die, whether he was frozen to death or killed, it was not what Hu Chuquan wanted.

"Shoot the arrow...... Hurry up and ...... arrows"

"Boom"

Countless arrows converged into a rain of arrows and shot towards Zhou Cang, who had to give up continuing to attack the ice, retreating as quickly as possible, and withdrawing from the attack range of the rain of arrows.

Zhou Cang, who retreated to the shore, threw the war knife aside, picked up the thousand-pound boulder that had been prepared next to him, and threw it vigorously towards the ice.

"Bang"

The ice surface was already overwhelmed by Zhou Cang's incessant attacks, coupled with the trampling of tens of thousands of Hun troops, and finally couldn't hold on'.

The ice burst and shattered into countless small pieces, and the Huns fell into the lake one after another.

"Help......

"Ah......h

"It's so cold......"

……

This was destined to be a tragedy, some were shot through the throat by the Zhou archers, some fell into the icy lake and sank to the bottom of the lake, and some were constantly paddling in an attempt to climb to the shore.

"Defeated...... Defeated......"

Hu Chuquan watched this scene and sat down on a large block of ice with a decadent expression.

Hu Chuquan was defeated in this battle, even if he had the life to return to the Xiongnu, he would not have a chance to be in the position of Shan Yu in this life.

This defeat not only lost his own future, but also the lives of 50,000 Hun warriors.

"General Han, say your name, let me know whose hands it was defeated before I die."

Hu Chuquan stood up, looked at Zhou Cang, and said word by word.

"A certain party Zhou Cang......"

"On the party? Zhou Cang? ”

Hu Chuquan muttered Zhou Cang's name in his mouth, and suddenly burst out laughing.

"Hahahaha"

Zhou Cangcai didn't bother to pay attention to Hu Chuquan's laughter, and signaled that he could clean up the battlefield and take prisoners.

"Zhou Cang...... A certain Hu Chuquan is not unjust in your hands...... But ......"

A strange smile suddenly appeared at the corner of Hu Chuquan's mouth.

"We'll see you soon...... Haha"

After speaking, Hu Chuquan didn't say a word, and pulled out his knife to kill himself.

Although it may be a little difficult for Hu Chuquan to win against Zhou Cang with his martial arts, if he escapes, there is still no big problem, at this moment, Xu Huang and Dian Wei are still not far away from him, and it is not difficult to escape.

Hu Chuquan will not run away because his future has been completely lost here, and even if he returns to the tribe, he will be swallowed up by other tribes sooner or later.

The first battle against the Xiongnu can be described as a great victory, the 50,000 troops of the Xiongnu army were captured by nearly 30,000 people, and their own side only lost 3,000 recruits, an unprecedented victory.

At the end of the battle, Zhou Cang ordered people to begin to collect the captured materials and cremate the bodies of the soldiers of the two armies who were killed.

"Lord, Lao Pei and I haven't seen a Hun dog this time, we haven't made any credit, and the soldiers under our command are talking about it......"

Pei Yuanshao and Xue Baihu, who had not been ambushed twenty miles away, only knew that the battle had ended after receiving Zhou Cang's order, and from beginning to end, the two of them, together with the eight thousand cavalry under their command, did not even grab a single head, and they were complaining to Zhou Cang at the moment.

Zhou Cang looked at the expressions of the two like resentful women, and was about to say something, but was interrupted by the sound of hurried horses' hooves.

"Report ...... The party urgently reported ......"
