"King Zuoxian of the Xiongnu is dead, anyone who surrenders will be spared!"
Shan Xin put King Zuo Xian's body on the head of a gun and lifted it up forcefully.
Judging from King Zuo Xian's height and body shape, this guy must weigh at least two hundred pounds.
But the letter alone was as easy as picking up a ball of cotton.
The armies of both sides that were still fighting fiercely fell silent for an instant. The Xiongnu side saw that their princes had been killed, and their morale suddenly dropped.
In addition, the Huns soldiers who were released during the day spread what Zhao Rui said to them.
These Xiongnu soldiers, who had been brave and skillful in fighting in the past, had no intention of continuing the fight, and they all laid down their weapons and surrendered.
This battle was fought very quickly. It can be said that it was the fastest battle since the war between Dashang and the Xiongnu.
In previous battles, soldiers from both sides hated each other and no one would surrender. Even if the leader died, the remaining soldiers would fight to the last man.
Therefore, when two sides are fighting, the battle is usually over when one side is annihilated.
But this time is very different from before.
The 150,000 Xiongnu troops were killed in the sudden attack and the number of those who died in the chaos and trampled was only 40,000 in total.
All the remaining 110,000 people laid down their weapons and surrendered.
At the same time, they also captured the cattle, sheep, grain, grass and baggage that accompanied the army, which was a very fruitful harvest.
Zhao Rui did not stay here too long and returned to the city with his army.
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Rui began his brainwashing speech.
Although he is not as good as Bai Hua and Shan Xin in actual combat and tactical use, no one can match him in terms of psychological warfare.
After the sermon, one hundred thousand Xiongnu soldiers burst into tears, and half of them immediately clamored to follow the Great Shang border army to the Mobei royal court and chop off the head of the Xiongnu king.
Speaking of the next morning, Zhao Rui was so sleepy that he couldn't stand it anymore, so he went back to sleep.
In the afternoon, 300,000 grassland coalition troops arrived at the Wula Pass. When they saw the mess on the ground, their jaws dropped in shock.
Especially when they heard from the Hun soldiers who had escaped back that King Zuo Xian had been killed, the generals of the various tribal alliances felt like they had been struck by a bolt from the blue, and they had the heart to retreat.
The Xiongnu King Ha Chixia never dreamed that the brave and capable King Zuoxian would be killed, and even his 200,000 troops would be defeated.
Those men and horses, almost all the elites of the Huns, were defeated overnight. From now on, their absolute dominance on the grassland will be shaken.
In desperation, Ha Chixia could only order to station at Wula Pass and make long-term plans.
Zhao Rui had a very comfortable sleep, and he slept until early the next morning before waking up.
As soon as he got up, Shan Xin was already waiting at the door.
"General Shan, what's wrong so early?"
Shan Xin immediately sent over a dozen greeting cards.
"Sir Zhao, these are all peace agreements sent by the leaders of the tribes in the grassland. I hope that our Dashang can forgive them and will never infringe on the borders of our Dashang from now on."
