"How many casualties were there in this battle?" Dilian asked with a gloomy look after he was far away from the battlefield and ordered to suspend repairs on the spot.

"More than 24,000. All tribes suffered battle losses. Canglang tribe and Cenmu tribe were almost completely wiped out." Mao Ling, who had just finished counting the casualties, gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice.

He did not distinguish between the numbers of serious injuries and those killed in action, because for the Northern Huns, who had poor medical conditions, there was no difference between the two.

In the deathly silence, Dilian's hand holding the riding crop tightened tightly, and the bulging veins on the back of his hand were clearly visible.

The brutality of this battle far exceeded his expectations. He thought it was just a show, but he didn't expect the Han people to be so ruthless. The casualties in this battle were more than those caused by the previous all-out war with Kushan. It can be called

It was tragic. Considering that the northern Xiongnu had a small family background, the casualties of more than 20,000 were already extremely heavy.

The war horse under its crotch seemed to feel the restlessness of its master.

"Where are the seriously injured clan members?"

"We have all been rescued." Mao Ling said solemnly.

"It is also a blessing for them to return to the embrace of Changshengtian as soon as possible. It is a pity that we cannot die yet."

"Collect their corpses, horses and armor, etc., and go back to bury them alive."

"yes."

"The casualties of the Han army in this battle are estimated to be less than 20,000, and their combat power is really terrifying." Mao Ling said.

Then he pulled out a ring-headed sword from his waist and handed it to Di Lian: "Chanyu, this is an unbroken weapon that my tribe took from the Han army."

Di Lian passed the knife and pulled it out. Just a cursory glance showed that it was sharp. The sharp blade and the exquisite patterns all proved that it was a well-made sword.

"The quality of the Huanshou sword captured by our department is not inferior to this sword. We can basically confirm that this is a common standard weapon among the Han army."

"After my test, I cut with a knife. My ordinary swords must be broken six or seven times before this sword is damaged, and for Kushan's standard long sword, it also requires three or four. This sword is sharp and

The tenacity is far beyond our imagination. The reason why we suffered such heavy casualties in this battle is that the Han army's equipment is too sophisticated, not because our people are weak. The Han army is all wearing armor and well-equipped. This battle is too difficult for our army.

It's not fair." Mao Ling said bitterly.

"It's nothing unfair." Dilian said calmly, then put the Huanshou knife back into its sheath and put it on his waist.

"It's not just a day or two that the Han people bullied us with their armor. But why is the Han army so strong today? Such swords are just standard equipment, and everyone wears armor. They should have just emerged from chaos.

It's not normal for Bingjia to be so wealthy just to get out of it."

Such sophisticated equipment would be understandable if it were placed in the hands of the Central Army of the Han Dynasty in the past. However, the tens of thousands of soldiers who came here were all equipped with such equipment, which was simply unacceptable to Dilian.

"Chanyu, if we can't solve the gap between soldiers and armor, I'm afraid we will have to fight the Han army in the future..."

"The Han army is not as bloody as the Kushans. If you rely on capture, you may lose more than you gain. Look for an opportunity to see if you can open a gap among the Han people and purchase some soldiers and armor." Dilian said.

"However, we cannot place all our hopes on this. We attacked Kushan before and plundered many craftsmen and cities. Don't ignore them. Be sure to protect them. I will be of great use."

Mao Ling nodded. As warlike nomads, they know the importance of weapons better than anyone else. They can almost determine the outcome of a battle. When the combat power of the two sides is not much different, they swing their swords at each other, and the blades constantly collide.

, the ending of the one who breaks first is almost self-evident.

But it's a pity that the Northern Huns' talents are all focused on fighting and riding horses, and they are really not good at forging. Although the tribe also has forging skills, they can make some weapons, even a few relatively sophisticated weapons. But that

The output and efficiency are really impressive.

If you want to build a large number of sophisticated weapons, you have to obtain them from enemies such as the Kushans and the Han people.

"Chanyu, don't worry." Mao Ling said.

"Haha, I'm afraid that the situation of this battle will be reported to the people of Kushan in a few days. The outcome of this battle is probably what the Han people want. It's ridiculous to win or lose." Dilian

He laughed at himself.

From the obvious point of view, this battle is indeed unwinnable and undefeated. Both sides will suffer losses, and the losses will be similar. The strength of the two is undoubtedly evident.

The Han army was so powerful in frontal combat that it showed no fear even when facing the Northern Huns on the grassland. The Northern Huns also completely crushed the Han army in terms of mobile warfare and guerrilla warfare.

"I'm afraid there will inevitably be disturbances on the grasslands in the future. Each tribe will need to reset its layout and protect the royal court. There must be no loopholes left to make the same mistakes again."

"Don't worry, Chanyu, we will be more careful and won't give the Han people any chance."

"Chanyu, there is a son in the enemy army who has to be killed." Dangyu She said.

"Are you talking about the boy you fought with?"

"That's right. This child's talent and potential are something we've never seen before. If we don't kill him while he's still young, I'm afraid he will be another Huo Qubing one day." Dang Yushe said with murderous intent.

"This person cannot be moved for the time being. Moreover, as you can see from the situation of fighting him, it is not easy to eliminate this person." Dilian said.

Di Lian sighed in his heart. How could he not see Sun Ce's potential, but the current Northern Huns could not bear Yuan Shu's anger.

He had always heard of the temper of His Majesty the Emperor of Da Chu, who was as strong as the original Emperor Wu. Once his bottom line was touched, the overthrow of the Northern Huns was only a snap away.

"Moreover, this may not be an opportunity for you." Dilian's eyes were fixed on Dang Yushe: "How does the current Sirius Cavalry compare with the original? You know better than I do. In the past, we lacked opponents.

, Sirius Cavalry can only stop here. But now, with such an opponent, you should be more sober."

Facing Di Lian's gaze, the arrogant Dang Yushe unconsciously held the knife at his waist, his head sank slightly, and whispered: "Don't worry Shanyu. Next time we meet again, we will prove that the Heavenly Wolf Cavalry is the best in the world.

The strongest. But..."

"If on the frontal battlefield, I accidentally kill him, please Shanyu don't blame me."

Seeing Dang Yushe's still unruly appearance, Di Lian sighed softly in his heart: "Okay, if you can really kill him head-on, I will never pursue him."

"As long as Shanyu doesn't let go, I will kill him." Dang Yushe looked directly into Dilian's eyes and said.

The Sirius Cavalry was the last trump card of the Northern Huns who were close to the empire at their peak to unite the power of a country. Although he is commanded by him, in order to truly exert its full power, it still needs the support of Dilian, the Shanyu. In the previous battle,

Dilian was obviously wary and did not completely let go of the Sirius rider's legs.

The newborn calves of the Overlord Cavalry and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are indeed too immature compared to the Sirius Cavalry. How could the ace created by the Northern Huns at their peak be so simple? If it weren't for Dilian's restrictions, Yu Shekou would have absolute confidence.

In the beginning, these two military spirit armies were directly crippled, and they were not given the opportunity to grow and awaken later.

Dilian's expression remained unchanged. He couldn't feel the resentment in Yu She's heart, but he was Shanyu and had to look at the problem from the perspective of the overall situation.

"This time is an exception. I won't limit you next time. I hope you won't let me down."
