uchi Pass, and even spiked chariots! We can't break through!" Lu Cheng suddenly warned."Hmm" It was rare to see Huo Qubing express confusion, but he did for a moment. Then, his expression returned to..."General Huo has long since lost contact. The last word came before the Cloudfall, and he is estimated to have died in battle. Or..."

"Or what" Liu Che frowned.

However, the official did not elaborate. The general's defection is causing chaos in the army.

However, many people think this way. Otherwise, a troop isn't like a wild horse; how could there be no news at all

Han Wudi gazed intently at the map before him, lost in thought.

The Wuyang Palace had already initiated the process of fortification.

Most of Chang'an's forces were infantry and archers. The cavalry were engaged in battle outside with the Xiongnu.

2000 Tiger Guards, over 30,000 mages, 60,000 Northern Wei army, 20,000 Southern Wei army, and 40,000 militiamen.

These are the last remaining defenders of the Han!

If only one army arrives, it can hold out for several months. But if the Xiongnu armies on the central and right flanks arrive simultaneously at Chang'an City, the situation will be precarious.

After this is broken, the power of the Xiongnu will be unstoppable.

That is to say.

It's not a country!

"A valiant general unparalleled among the three armies," Emperor Wu of Han raised his head and muttered to himself, "Huo Qubing, I believe you are not dead, nor have you defected. But where are you Can you do something"

The Xuanjin Feather Guard Armor's level has been raised again by one, and the 30 cavalrymen are now like 30 tanks, forming the spearhead of the cavalry unit, making their charge even more formidable.

Han Que and Lu Cheng analyzed that there must be a garrison or launching point on the east front, otherwise how could the Moon God's army have appeared out of thin air

Lu Cheng's Xuan Niao cavalry reconnaissance and driving away the divine crow flocks played a significant role.

This is a very risky move. They just broke out of the encirclement and now they're going to provoke trouble in the rear of the Eastern army, similar to what happened with the Dahuangshan Mine.

Huo Qubing led the Flying Cavalry straight to the east, charging into battle. The enemy was defeated, and this final piece of the puzzle fell into place.

This is quite important, this risk is worth taking.

The cavalry of the Imperial Guards stormed into the abandoned tent of the Eastern Army, annihilating the remaining soldiers. Meanwhile, Huo Qubing began searching for "the puzzle pieces".

"General Huo! We must leave now, or the rearguard will catch up." Lu Cheng's Xuan Bird cavalry had been decimated by ten, and even the vanguard had entered the perception range of Lu Cheng's divine spirit clone. You have to know,

Lu Cheng hasn't even reached the Golden Core Stage, so his perception range can't be very large.

"Wait a moment, something's not right here! There isn't any supply depot at this encampment, nothing at all! The Xiongnu couldn't possibly survive without food or equipment, what is their logistical situation" Huo Qubing spoke in a hurried tone: "All troops, advance to the southwest foothills."

This military outpost was located near a small hill. Huo Qubing ordered his troops to enter the mountains first and then inspect the area.

The Imperial Guards, listen to my orders! Advance towards the southwest foothills.

"General Huo, there are many troops stationed in Yamaguchi Pass, and even spiked chariots! We can't break through!" Lu Cheng suddenly warned.

"Hmm" It was rare to see Huo Qubing express confusion, but he did for a moment. Then, his expression returned to seriousness. "The entire army, there are defenders at the pass. Our direction remains unchanged. We will engage them in a skirmish and then detour around!"

This is really a command that Lu Cheng couldn't understand.

The Feather Lin Guards charged to the mountain pass, and as expected, a large number of Xiongnu infantry were waiting there in battle formation. They even had their chariot siege weapons set up. Before they even got close, arrows rained down upon them like hailstones.

The arrowtail still held a trace of moonlight.

C cavalry on either side of Yamaguchi's formation surged forward, charging straight at the Imperial Guard.

"Okay! Done, withdraw! Detour!"

This time, it was especially difficult to shake off the pursuers.

The Feather Forest cavalry rode through the desert, both men and steeds lacking rest. At this point, they were exhausted, and if there was another wave of such pursuit, they would be surrounded.

Moreover, long journeys will also significantly reduce combat effectiveness.

For days on end, the cavalry inserted themselves behind enemy lines in the desert. Aside from a raid on the [Dà Qīng Shān Mining District], they achieved little and were constantly harassed and pursued by the Xiongnu.

The pursuers behind us will arrive in one hour. Let's rest here for half an hour and then hit the road again. The time we have to rest is getting shorter, and our space to move is shrinking with every passing moment.

As we all know, we can't take any more risks, and we should definitely not actively seek out fighter jets. Right now, our top priority is to find an opportunity, hide, and rest for a day.

Lu Cheng is repairing a broken set of Han Cavalry Armor, as expected.

It can't be done, can it

2,000 elite soldiers were no match for the millions of troops.

To be honest, Lu Cheng had already witnessed Huo Qubing's prowess. He was truly a legendary general, commanding his cavalry like an extension of himself. However, with this disparity in strength, it's estimated that

"Lu General!" Huo Qubing suddenly ran over. "I found them!"

"What did you find" Lu Cheng asked.

"What strategic importance does this hill hold, do you think" asked Huo Qubing.

"That's impossible. It's just a small hill, with nothing around it. It's far from the front lines, and there are no villages or towns nearby. It couldn't possibly be a strategic location." Lu Cheng shook his head. He had learned a lot recently, and he understood this point.

You obtained the clue [Nameless Hill]!

“I saw soldiers guarding the pass, and I found it strange. I circled around carefully. Today at this pass, there are the emperor's elite guards and the royal palace guards, and on top of the mountain, giant flying beasts flew out, three in total, three! ” Huo Qubing exclaimed excitedly.

You obtained a clue 【Heavy Guard】.

Lu Cheng was taken aback. Upon hearing this, it did seem strange. What were these elites doing guarding a small hill Moreover, they hadn't even participated in the encirclement.

"Big fish, General Lu! These past few days, the two of us have been running around, looking for an opportunity to strike. This time, I'm almost certain, I think we've caught a big one! There's no hiding anything in this mountain, it's too small. Underneath this mountain, underground... there's a huge treasure!"

Lu Cheng fell silent. He had thought of something too.

"If their supply lines were not on the surface, I'm just saying if! Just like you told Huo a few days ago about your Youdu Mountain!" Huo Qubing said: "These days, I have been everywhere trying to probe and analyze, just to find a glimmer of opportunity. As of today, I can basically confirm that there is a huge secret hidden underground in this southern desert!"

Lu Cheng took a deep breath when he heard this!

This is the last piece of the puzzle.

No wonder the Xiongnu didn't care about Han cavalry raiding their rear, there were no chariots in the southern desert, only troops airdropping everywhere!

A super logistics card covers the entire underground of the South Desert Royal Court. It provides blood supply to the entire area and the entire front line from below!

A skill of the card [Huo Qubing] has been discovered.

Battle Scout: (This card continuously gathers clues in battle, eventually revealing the location of the opponent's Trap cards and Support cards. When this card attacks a Support card, it earns bonus battle points and may generate Rumor cards!)

When they were in the clouds, Youzhou reported that the invading army attacking Youzhou could be resurrected after death. How familiar is this

He also discussed with Huo Qubing, suspecting that the Young Lion King still possessed the power of the Underworld God. Now it seems, there's no need to doubt it at all!

Lu Cheng stared intently at the ground, as if he were trying to see through it.

"

Well, well, well. We found you!

"

"Brother Lu, I plan to shake off the hundred thousand pursuers, leaving them completely unprepared. Then, I'll burrow into their heart, right where they are most vulnerable, and strike them with a spear again and again. Twist it, over and over, until they bleed profusely! Make them feel pain! Pain so intense that their entire army will be forced to come to their rescue!"

"How to do it, how can we make them unprepared" Lu Cheng's breathing became heavy.

Huo Qubing fell silent for a minute, then spoke slowly:

"The dead won't defend themselves, and only the dead can go underground. The Xiongnu can fly over Yin Mountain, and my Han cavalry can also fly over the underworld. General Lu, you are the Underworld Marshal, do you know the way After we die, can you lead our Han army spirits to where they belong!"

Lu Cheng looked at the young general in front of him, and for a moment, he couldn't find words to speak.

> able

Mount Youdu happens to have a realm node, making it a card that can be linked vertically. This card can also be displayed underground!

All you need to do is put all the cards back into the card deck, and then you will have energy to deploy it, replacing the Yin Shan - Youzhou underground collision with this Super Supply Zone of Mo Nan.

Bids for a dual domain connection have failed, and the loss of Youtu Mountain is possible. Even my own life may be forfeit. But, we've reached this point, there's no choice but to fight!

"General Huo, life and death are different. To be honest, if you want to pass through my domain and clash with the monstrous creature beneath the ground, you'll need my energy. I can figure that out, but you need to join me. If you die, I may not be able to resurrect you. You might never return home."

huo went patted Lu Cheng's shoulder, stood up, and the feathered forest guards also got up one after another.

"The General said, 'We can't return home anymore. But we all know that a million savage wolf soldiers are advancing south, ravaging our homeland. They may have already breached the borders of You and Bi provinces, perhaps even reaching Chang'an. We have nowhere left to retreat.'"

The north wind swept across the land, and despite days of travel, though the Imperial Guards showed signs of weariness in their faces, their eyes remained resolute, saying nothing.

"Unless the Xiongnu are destroyed, how can we establish peace at home!!"

The Imperial Guards roared and battled with fervor.

"Fei Lin Forbidden Guard, advance with no retreat! The Xiongnu are not yet vanquished, how can we consider our homes safe!"

Let me know if you need anything else translated!

"The Imperial Guard, advance with no retreat! The Xiongnu have not been eradicated, how can we consider our homes safe!"

---Aside---

I'll update a few hundred more today, but I might update less tomorrow because I have a hospital check-up. Of course, that's just a possibility.
