Chapter 139 Unbelievable

"How is that possible!? Isn't Yuan Mai still holding his troops in the south? How could he suddenly appear in Taiyuan?!" Langfeng roared angrily.

The Hun cavalry who came to report the news could not answer his question, and he could not speak.

Lang Feng was both angry, worried and at a loss, and then shouted: "Retreat immediately! Retreat immediately!..." At the same time, he had turned his horse and galloped towards the north.

Ten thousand Hun cavalry hurriedly urged their horses to follow the wolf wind, and the sound of horse hooves sounded loudly at the scene, making them look chaotic.

Wu Changfeng glanced at the Huns who were hurriedly retreating north and couldn't help but frown and said, "This is beyond expectations! How could Yuan Mai suddenly appear under Taiyuan City?

Did he have expected that we had set up an ambush on the official road, so he avoided the official road and rushed to Taiyuan from another path?"

Zhao De frowned and said, "This is the only possibility now! I underestimated Yuan Mai! I didn't expect that he was so deceitful. He could have expected that we would set up an ambush here and avoided us and rushed to Taiyuan with the trick of beating the east and attacking the west!

The Youxian King was unprepared and suddenly was attacked and killed by Yuan Mai. It was reasonable to lose a big loss."

Wu Changfeng glanced at Zhao De and said, "The ambush plan has failed. Let's wait for the next opportunity."

Zhao De frowned and nodded.

He was both depressed and annoyed. He felt unacceptable for his repeated defeats in Zhang Lang's hands. He only felt that with his ability and his status in Houdexuan, if he could not deal with a mere wealthy young man, wouldn't it make people laugh?

Then he said to Wu Changfeng: "We will retreat temporarily. Since Yuan Mai has gone to Taiyuan, we can go to Taiyuan in the future and find a way to take action. What Master Xuan and the lady have to explain must be completed!"

Wu Changfengqing couldn't help but say, "I didn't take this fourth young master seriously at first. Now it seems that this guy is really not simple! At least he can be called a hero on the battlefield! I have never seen anyone better than him!

Even the legendary famous general of ancient times would be very difficult to defeat more than 100,000 cavalry of the Right Xian King in one fell swoop under such circumstances!

Now I finally understand why the lady and Master Xuan have repeatedly attacked the fourth young master! If he is alive, the second young master will probably not be his opponent!"

On the official road to the south, Yuan Shao's main army was like a huge earth dragon winding between mountains and rivers and quickly advancing northward.

At this moment, a carrier pigeon flew over the army with its wings and fell straight towards the area where the commander-in-chief flag was located, and fell on Xu You's arm, who was immediately beside Yuan Shao.

Seeing this, Yuan Shao immediately asked with concern: "Do you have a letter from me?"

Yuan Shao and others had already learned that Zhang Lang's troops were surrounded by the main force of the Xiongnu of the Right King in Qingyangling south of Taiyuan. At this moment, they were leading their troops to advance rapidly to reinforce Zhang Lang, so they would pay special attention when they saw a carrier pigeon flying over.

Xu You took off the small bamboo tube on the feet of the pigeon, looked at the marks on it, and immediately presented the bamboo tube to Yuan Shao and said, "It was the letter delivered by the Fourth Prince."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Shao immediately took the bamboo tube, crushed the mud seal, poured out the silk. He spread the silk and looked at it quickly, with a look of surprise on his face, and he was stunned on the spot.

Everyone present felt bad feelings and looked at each other, only Yuan Xi and a few others sneered secretly. Yuan Xi said: It seems that Yuan Mai has been defeated! It really deserves it! I just don’t know if Yuan Mai died!

Thinking of this, Yuan Xi felt a little excited. Of course, this feeling cannot be expressed.

Jiao Chu, who was standing by, also had similar thoughts to Yuan Xi, and couldn't help but whisper: "Son, your big revenge seems to be avenged today!"

Seeing that Yuan Shao was not speaking for a long time, Yan Liang couldn't bear it and asked with his fists: "Prime Minister, what did Fei Ge say in the letter? Is the fourth young master still safe?"

Yuan Shao raised his head, glanced at everyone with an infinite excitement, shook the silk in his hands, and shouted: "Maier defeated the more than 100,000 troops of the Xiongnu Right Xian King under the city of Taiyuan, and also killed the Xiongnu Right Xian King! Taiyuan has been taken back!"

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but open their eyes wide, looking in disbelief, and the scene was silent. Yuan Xi, Feng Ji, Jiao Chu and the other two looked like they had seen ghosts, and their mouths were opened and they couldn't close them at all.

Yan Liang first came to his senses and asked in disbelief with his nerves: "Prime Minister, you said the fourth son, he not only defeated the Huns and killed the Youxian King, but also took back Taiyuan?! This, this..."

Yuan Xi couldn't help but shout, "How is this possible?"

Everyone present came to their senses at this time and couldn't help but nod and agree. Most of them had no strong conflict with Zhang Lang, but simply thought that such a victory was too incredible and unbelievable!

In their opinion, it was almost impossible for Yuan Mai to escape from the siege of the Huns with just over 20,000 troops.

How could he turn defeat into victory? Not only did he defeat the Xiongnu formation and kill the Right Xian King, but he even seized food from the tiger's mouth and regained Taiyuan?!

No matter how you look at this kind of thing, it looks like a myth, and it makes people unable to believe it.

Yuan Shao was originally quite excited, but after calming down, he felt that such victory was really unbelievable. Looking at the letter in his hand, he frowned and muttered: "But, but is this indeed a letter from Feige sent by Maier?"

Feng Ji's heart moved and he clasped his fists and said, "Prime Minister, maybe the fourth young master has been wiped out at this moment. The carrier pigeon fell into the hands of the Huns. The Huns deliberately issued such a letter, intending to lure our army to Taiyuan without any defense.

If what I expected was good, I am afraid that the Huns had opened their pockets near Taiyuan and set up an ambush, just waiting for us to fall into the trap!"

Yuan Xi and Jiao Chu immediately agreed, thinking that this is true. They did not believe that Zhang Lang could achieve such a record no matter what.

Yuan Shao frowned and said nothing for a while. He turned his head to look at Xu You and asked, "What do Ziyuan think?"

Xu You couldn't believe that Yuan Mai could achieve such a victory, frowned and thought, "This matter may be really a conspiracy of the Huns. I heard that this right wise king was very cunning, so it was not surprising that he used such a method."

Seeing Xu You say so, Yuan Shao's heart completely sank to the valley, and the excitement just now disappeared. After a moment of silence, he looked at the letter in his hand and asked in a deep voice: "What should we do if this is the case?"

Xu You clasped his fists and said, "Stop moving forward for the time being, set up camp on the spot. At the same time, all scouts were sent to investigate near Taiyuan, and make clear the situation first and then make plans."
