This wave of Sao operations by Shen Bing directly caused Mao Dun Shan Yu to stay in place for a long time without responding.

Even until the banner of the Qin Army was erected on Wuyuan City, Mao Dun Shanyu asked inexplicably:

"Why is this? Why did those slaves suddenly turn to counterattack into the city?"

"They are always greedy for life and fear of death, why can they defeat our warriors?"

It's no wonder that Mao Dun Shan Yu will ask.

For one thing, he didn't understand the Central Plains language, so Qin Jun shouted something and he didn't know what he meant. He just watched the slaves suddenly turn in large numbers with a dumb face.

Secondly, he doesn't understand human nature, and simply thinks that a coward is a coward, and a warrior is a warrior. There is a clear line between the two and even insurmountable.

How did he know that as long as a fulcrum is given, the earth can be lifted, and a coward can become a warrior in seconds as long as a chance is given.

No one can answer Maudun Shanyu, because other people also inexplicably don't understand how the original Xiongnu's advantage in this battle suddenly turned into the Qin army's occupation of Wuyuan.

Later, Mao Dun learned about the situation from the herdsmen who knew a few words in the Central Plains, and realized that it was Qin Jun shouting to let the slaves understand that killing Wuyuan can survive, so this result will happen.

After hearing this, Mouton sighed:

"This is not the defeat of the war, but that Shen Bing will use people's hearts!"

"How can we defeat an opponent who can use people's hearts?"

In fact, it wasn't just Mouton Shanyu who had no idea what was going on, even Wei Wei, who was in command on the other side, was confused.

Wei Wei's situation has always been that the situation in the west is urgent and needs reinforcements.

This information is correct, and it is also a signal from Shen Bing.

However, the left and right wing forces were blocked by the Huns cavalry, and it was difficult to break through the obstacles to help.

This is actually caused by the low strength of the Qin army.

The Qin army had only five thousand people on each side, and these five thousand people could not move easily because they had to make sure that the city gate could be sealed off.

Once the mobile city gate is unlocked, the Huns in the city will rush out and encircle the Qin army.

As a result, the Qin army on all sides did not dare to split their troops and reinforcements easily, but Wei Wei urgently transferred a three thousand infantry and two thousand cavalry troops from Yang Duanhe to prepare to use it as a reinforcement to the west.

But the situation is still not optimistic.

The reason was that Yang Duanhe's Hanoi soldiers had no experience in fighting the Huns and were not equipped with "Thunderbolt Chariots". Although they had three-bow bed crossbows, they were not equipped with much equipment.

When Wei Wei was in a hurry, a spy suddenly came to report:

"Lieutenant, the general has captured Wuyuan."

Wei Wei was walking back and forth anxiously before the case, thinking that he could not take the guard to rescue the general from the past, when he suddenly heard the words "the general has captured Wuyuan", he couldn't help but stopped in shock and asked. :

"What? What did you say?"

"The general has captured Wuyuan?"

The spy replied:

"Exactly, the banner of our army has been raised at the head of the city!"

Wei Wei still didn't believe it. He walked out of the tent and looked in the direction of Wuyuan in three steps in two steps, and he saw that the "Shen" flag had been raised at the top of the city.

After a long pause, Wei Wei ordered:

"Flag and ask about the situation!"

In fact, Wei Wei's order to play the banner was not an "inquiry" at all, but the Qin army's banner communication was only known to Qin Jun, and even the army had an agreed secret signal that was not recognized.

So this "flag" is to determine whether the head of Wuyuan City is the Qin Army.

It wasn't until Qin Jun, the head of the city, responded fluently with the banner that Wei Wei had to believe this fact and secretly wondered:

"The general is really a god and man."

"Not long ago, I was in danger, but at this time I have already captured Wuyuan... but it made me worry about it!"

Then the gates on all sides opened wide.

Of course, opening the gate of the city is not like the Xiongnu who opened two floors at the same time, but only opened one floor, and the Qin army outside the city was brought into the city in batches.

After seeing the way Wuyuan opened the city gates, he realized that the defending Huns had made a fatal mistake... If Wuyuan didn’t have two gates open at the same time, I’m afraid that even with the power of sinking soldiers, he would not be able to counterattack in this situation. Entering the city, even if a slave is instigated, is no exception.

But the battlefield is like this, what happened is what happened, there is no regret medicine to eat, and if you don't have any regrets, you can only look at the city and sigh.

Ji Porridge asked carefully:

"Shan Yu, what should we do now?"

Mao Dun Shanyu sighed heavily, as if he was ten years old, and ordered:

"We lost, order the slaughterhouse to withdraw from Hexi as soon as possible!"

The slaughterhouse is the captain of Maudun, who is in charge of the Xitao and Hexi corridors.

Asking him to withdraw from Hexi means to completely abandon Hexi.

Mouton had no other choice.

The loss of Wuyuan means that the back cover is not guaranteed.

The Hootau Pass is the main passage from the West Tao in the south and the Hexi Corridor to the grassland in the north...To the north and west of Hootao is the continuous curved Yangshan Mountain (now Langshan in Inner Mongolia), and the Yinshan Mountain to the east, with a pass between the two mountains. Connect the grassland.

If the Qin army stabilized its position in Wuyuan and then sealed the mountain pass, and there was Yueshi in the Western Regions on the other side of the Hexi Corridor, then one of the slaughterhouses would be sealed.

Shen Bing did not do this.

Because there is a saying "the trapped beast still fights".

If the mountain pass is really sealed so that the Xiongnu army in Hexi cannot return, it will only attract a desperate fight from the Huns.

At that time, what the Qin army had to face was the fierce Huns, and the energy they exploded was probably even more terrifying than the situation when the slaves captured Wuyuan.

More importantly, this is not Shen Bing's strategic goal.

What Shen Bing hopes is to open up the Hexi Corridor to connect with the Western Regions. Now that the Xiongnu have taken the initiative to withdraw, why not he?

What Shen Bing has to do is to wait for the Huns to withdraw almost, take a group of people to receive Xitao and then build a walled city to protect the business road along the Hexi Corridor.

So the first thing after occupying Wuyuan... to be exact, the second thing.

The first thing is of course to report the results to Yingzheng.

The second thing is to find Yun Xi.

Yun Xi rushed to Wuyuan to congratulate Shen Bing:

"Congratulations to the general, another city!"

"After Wuyuan, Hetao will no longer have a foothold for the Huns."

Shen Bing just smiled and said:

"Remember the deal with Xi Rong that I told Brother Yuntian before?"

"Now you can start preparing."

Yun Tian looked at Shen Bing in surprise:

"The meaning of the general... means that I am waiting for the business path with Xirong to get through?"

Yun Tian actually didn't have much idea about the Western Regions. At this time, he only thought that the loop was regained. He didn't expect that he would be connected to the Western Regions after taking Wuyuan, so he was so surprised.

Shen Bing nodded:

"Although it is not completely unblocked, it is not far away!"

"When silk can be produced in the North, I am afraid that the commercial road will be passable."

Yun Tan was stunned for a long time, and then took a few breaths like awakened:

"General, in this way, the Northland will be rich as an enemy country!"
