Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 514: Karma

Daxian Wang was rather tenacious, going all the way to West Xiongnu’s territory, but Qi Yuan’s army had also caught up.

Daxian Wang this while just had less than ten thousand people by his side. Originally, it was mostly cavalries, but because they were on the run without food, they had no choice but to use the warhorses as food. That’s why, as of now, the warhorses have been reduced to only a few hundred.

Of course, because the battlefront was drawn out relatively long, the West Xiongnu soldiers left in Qi Yuan should be much more than the ones led by Daxian Wang, however without an outstanding general leading, those people, even if valiant, they are still no more than a flock of crows at this time, already not worth fearing, believe that the Qi Yuan soldiers responsible for dealing with them can completely handle.

As for the people of North Xiongnu, since they’ve already secretly surrendered to Qi Yuan, Jin Qinwang also just mercifully let them off temporarily, planning to deal with West Xiongnu first. That’s right, only temporarily.

Fu Yun Ting, as the main commander, took the lead. Following him, although was just less than thirty thousand people, but never mind that all were cavalries, their spirit and appearance were all quite good. Compared to West Xiongnu’s troops, it was practically the difference between heaven and earth.

With this kind of disparity, West Xiongnu Daxian Wang still wants to turn the tables?

The situation originally, never mind being grim, even if West Xiongnu Daxian Wang knew that in the end, it wasn’t too possible to occupy a large piece of Qi Yuan’s territory, to want to fish up large amounts of benefits from Qi Yuan wasn’t impossible. The only regret was just that Great Wei and Southern Qi were actually unmoved the whole time. Clearly this was a great opportunity to divide up Qi Yuan, yet don’t know what those people were thinking, to actually be completely indifferent.

And now, he was just like a stray dog. Not only so, he even lost that many good Xiongnu men.

Daxian Wang although knew that in West Xiongnu’s interior, there were many people displeased with him, the reason, he also understood, but he thought that since he didn’t have thoughts towards the throne, and also had his royal brother’s trust, just wholeheartedly thinking of West Xiongnu, wanting West Xiongnu to become stronger and wealthier…….But in the end, it was getting the authority divided first, and getting betrayed afterwards. And in the most difficult time, they even got their food supply cut off by their own people.

Daxian Wang nearly shed tears of blood, recalling the lofty aspirations and ambitions of his youth, recalling everything he’d put in for this ambition. Now, having no choice but to face Qi Yuan’s army, he can’t help but ask himself, was it worth it?

All this way, because Qi Yuan occupied an absolute advantage, if really going for the kill, Daxian Wang and them actually would’ve long hit a dead end. However, they were instead driven to Qi Yuan and West Xiongnu’s border, just like a mouse that was getting toyed by a cat. Despite clearly knowing this, they still continued on fleeing, merely harboring a tiny bit of hope, hoping that perhaps at a certain time, they will run into the reinforcements sent by his Majesty.

But, as time passed day by day, that tiny bit of hope gradually shattered. Right now, they didn’t want to run anymore. Men of Xiongnu, even if dying, need to be valiant, having no fear.

TN: All

As such, even if not having any strength left, at this time, those eyes were still like the wolves of the grassland.

They belonged to Daxian Wang’s private guards and were Daxian Wang’s absolute supporters. That’s why, meeting death together with Daxian Wang, they won’t furrow their brows in the slightest.

Fu Yun Ting pulled the reins, his face penetrating with a grave expression.

A trapped beast, when knowing its fate, will always be able to display the most powerful fighting power.

In other words, Qi Yuan although had all the advantages, the losses afraid will be very serious.

Daxian Wang sat upon the horse, facing Fu Yun Ting from afar, “General Fu, this prince knows that today’s ending is an inevitable death. However, prior to dying, there’s one thing one wants to know. All of this, exactly whose handiwork was it?” As matters stand, certain matters, if Daxian still hasn’t seen through, then he really would be too stupid.

To have actually unknowingly gotten schemed against this miserably, if one doesn’t figure out who the opponent was, then one would die with grievances.

Fu Yun Ting had a resolute look, his eyes not having a trace of emotion, “Everything ends with death, so what use is there knowing?”

Daxian Wang’s face turned cold, the hatred in his eyes practically solidifying. That was just a ferocious beast nearing death, wishing to devour someone.

Shortly after, Daxian Wang suddenly began laughing, “Not going to say? Why not? Is it because you can’t say? It’s Li Hong Yuan, your Jin Qinwang Li Hong Yuan, isn’t it? Hahaha, already had suspected in the beginning, just afterwards, the doubts were dispelled, yet never thought that he’d actually hid this deeply. Does your emperor know? Do those princes fighting over the throne know? Ahahahha……..”

The expression on Fu Yun Ting’s face darkened, waving his spear, “Kill!”

Regardless what certain people on Qi Yuan’s side thought, hearing the command, they just charged out. The two sides directly clashed together. A cruel and arduous battle ignited. The sound of the battle cries, the sound of the weapons clashing, as well as the sound of the flesh getting pierced mixed together, the scent of blood filling the air, making one suffocate. Yet at the same time, those sounds seemingly were exceptionally crisp.

At this time, there weren’t any formations and whatnot, just the most primitive impact.

With He Shi Hai this killing god present, they were prepared to directly take on the Daxian Wang from the start. However, the people under Daxian Wang, despite clearly knowing the outcome, still risked their life to protect him, replacing their fallen comrade as they threw themselves before He Shi Hai.

In the end, there were too many people, so He Shi Hai couldn’t reach his goal. However, the ones that offered themselves up, regardless whether it was a big fish or a small fry, as long as it was an enemy, He Shi Hai all unhesitantly took on.

Comparing the number of people of Qi Yuan and West Xiongnu, it was more or less just three to one. Although ones like He Shi Hai were able to fight one against many, even if some of the other generals weren’t able to compare with him, ‘one against three’ was still not a problem. As such, this ratio just got stretched out even more.

West Xiongnu’s individual fighting power was strong, but if against several people, and even under the circumstances of lacking stamina, to be able to take down one with them was already not bad. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on novelenglish.net . fire(.)nᴇt

Although towards He Shi Hai’s prowess on the battlefield, they’d once heard of before, but when truly witnessing, quite a few people still got ruthlessly startled. This practically exceeded the limits of a human already.

He Shi Hai shook the blood droplets from his spear. The hinderances were almost all cleared away. Pinpointing West Xiongnu Daxian Wang’s position, he directly charged over. Because his target from the start was precisely him, as such, this distance wasn’t considered far.

Even if wanting to protect Daxian Wang, when all dead, how can they still protect? If from the start, they just chose to run away, perhaps there was still that possibility, but since they chose to stay behind, then they must’ve already had the resolution to leave behind their life.

When the large blade in Daxian Wang’s hand swung towards a Qi Yuan soldier, he suddenly got pushed away by a spear coming from his side. That enormous strength nearly made the large blade in his hand fly out.

Daxian Wang presently didn’t even know of He Shi Hai’s existence. The shock from the force made his palm go numb, feeling completely dumbstruck inside. The only time he met face to face with Qi Yuan’s Jin Qinwang, it wasn’t even considered a direct confrontation. However, at the time, he still sensed Jin Qinwang’s prowess. If not careful, one perhaps will just perish on the spot. And now, he actually ran into another monster, yet towards such a person, he completely didn’t have any impression of. Speaking from this bit, for him to end up like this today, seemingly it wasn’t just because of Xiongnu’s internal problems. Having no time to be absentminded, he hastily turned around and prepared to battle.
