The ninth son of the emperor was demoted at the beginning. I have a famous Chinese general.

"call."

Seeing the Hun army withdraw, Ning Quan also breathed a sigh of relief.

This battle would not have been easy if he hadn't drawn Barrett in time.

Unless he uses the cavalry in the space, he will surely be defeated.

However, although the Barrett is good, it needs to be used sparingly in the future because the system is only equipped with ten rounds of bullets.

"Your Highness, we won."

"Your Highness is mighty."

Like Ning Quan, the soldiers cheered when they saw the Hun army withdraw.

They never dreamed that they would actually defeat the Hun army.

The happiest ones were the Persian prisoners of war, because Ning Quan promised them that they would be freed from slavery as long as they defeated the Huns.

In the battle just now, they also fought bravely.

"Your Highness, did you just kill Hu Yanquan with this thing?"

At this time, Li Jing came closer and looked at the Barrett in Ning Quan's hand, saying in disbelief.

"Well, that's it. What do you think? I didn't lie to you, did I? This thing is definitely a powerful weapon."

"It can kill the enemy within 2,000 meters."

Ning Quan raised the Barrett in his hand and showed off.

"It's truly a divine object. Your Highness actually possesses such a treasure. Great achievements are just around the corner."

Li Jing said with admiration.

"Yes, Your Highness is truly a God-given hero."

Zhuge Liang also echoed.

"Hahaha, you're welcome, you're welcome."

Hearing everyone's praise, Ning Quan couldn't stop smiling.

"Your Highness, we have fulfilled our promise. We hope you will fulfill your promise and grant us freedom."

At this time, several prisoners of war came forward and spoke respectfully.

“Don’t worry, since I promised you, I will definitely keep my promise.

"From now on, I will end your slavery and restore your freedom."

Ning Quan said with a big laugh.

"Thank you for your grace, Your Highness."

"Your Highness is mighty."

Hearing Ning Quan's words, many prisoners of war shouted in unison.

"Haha, no need to thank me, this is what you deserve."

"If you want to leave now, I can immediately issue you a document and let you go."

"However, I advise you not to leave now, because Persia and the Arabs are still at war, and you can't go back at all."

"At least we have to wait until the relationship between Persia and the Arabs has eased."

Ning Quan said with a smile.

Ning Quan's threats were not empty. If one wanted to return to Persia from Daqian, one had to pass through the Arab Empire, and Persia and the Arab Empire were still at war.

Once they were caught by the Arabs, they would have no way out.

Hearing this, the faces of all the prisoners of war turned gloomy. They all understood that what Ning Quan said was the truth.

"Everyone, I can give you a suggestion."

"Why don't you stay in my army for a while and return home after the war is over."

"Of course, if you serve me, I will not treat you unfairly."

"You will enjoy the same treatment as my soldiers."

Ning Quan tempted.

Ning Quan certainly didn't want to let them go, as he was short of soldiers.

"This……"

Upon hearing this, many Persian prisoners of war immediately hesitated.

"Thank you, Your Highness. We understand."

"We are willing to stay and serve in your Highness's army temporarily until the war between Persia and the Arabs is over."

After a moment's consideration, all the prisoners knelt down and bowed.

After all, they didn't want to lose their lives in vain. Instead of taking the risk of crossing the Arab Empire, it would be better to follow Ning Quan temporarily and leave after the war was over.

"Alright! From now on, you will be soldiers under my command."

"Don't worry, this king will never treat you unfairly."

Seeing this, Ning Quan was overjoyed and said

With this group of Persian prisoners of war, his strength increased a bit.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Many Persian prisoners of war kowtowed immediately.

"Well, no need to formalize. Go and help clean up the battlefield and treat the wounded!"

Ning Quan nodded with satisfaction and then gave instructions.

"Here!"

Everyone took the order and left quickly.

Soon, the battlefield was cleaned up.

After inventory, Ning Quan seized more than 500 war horses, more than 4,000 weapons, and more than 300 carriages loaded with food and fodder.

The results of the battle were later counted. In this battle, more than 4,000 Huns were killed and the number of wounded was unknown.

Of course, our own casualties were also not small, totaling more than 1,300 people.

Among them, more than 300 were killed, more than 400 were seriously injured, and more than 600 were slightly injured, accounting for almost one-third of Ning Quan’s troops.

To be honest, this battle was indeed difficult.

It also gave Ning Quan a deeper understanding of the Huns' combat effectiveness.

After the battlefield was cleaned up, the sky gradually darkened.

Ning Quan ordered the camp to be set up and arranged for doctors to treat the wounded as soon as possible.

With so many injured people, the convoy obviously could not set off.

The minor injuries were still easy to deal with, but Ning Quan certainly couldn't just ignore so many seriously injured ones. He had to at least wait until the seriously injured ones' conditions stabilized before taking any action.

There are seven doctors in Lu Ping's team, three of whom were recruited in the capital.

The other four people were specially hired by Li Junchen at a large price because he was worried about the cold and harsh life in Beiting and was afraid that Wanyue would get sick.

These seven doctors are all experienced people with good medical skills and no shortage of medical supplies.

The injured soon stabilized under their treatment.

However, the medical level in this world is still far inferior to that of modern times. Even if the injury is stabilized, it will take a long time to recover.

.......

Just when Ning Quan was resting.

After a long journey, Huo Qubing and Man Chong finally arrived at Ningquan's fiefdom, Hulun City.

Hulan City is 800 kilometers northwest of the capital of Beiting and is under the jurisdiction of Beiting Protectorate.

It was the northwesternmost area of the Daqian Dynasty, bordering the Arab Empire and the Western Turks.

Hulun City has a very long history and existed during the previous dynasty.

However, since the late period of the previous dynasty, during the reign of Ning Quan's grandfather, this ancient city has gradually declined.

After Ning Yuanwu usurped the throne, the Beiting Protectorate chose to secede because they were dissatisfied with Ning Yuanwu's coup and chose to establish their own regime. They only submitted to Daqian on the surface and later abandoned Hulun City.

It’s not that the Beiting Protectorate doesn’t want to intervene, but that it simply doesn’t have the ability to do so.

After Ning Yuanwu came to power, he drastically reduced the military pay of Beiting, resulting in a serious shortage of troops in Beiting.

Gradually, Hulun City fell and became an isolated city.

Nowadays, there are only a handful of officials left here, barely keeping the city running and resisting foreign invasions.

"My goodness, His Majesty has really found a good place for our Highness."

"Is this also considered a fiefdom? Is this also considered a city?"

Huo Qubing stood outside the city, looking at Hulun City not far away, and was suddenly surprised.

The Hulun City in front of us cannot even be called a city.

It would be fine if the area was not large, not to mention that the circumference is less than three miles.

The key point is that the city is too dilapidated. The outer wall is only two meters high and there are damages everywhere.

Even the city wall was incomplete, with only one corner left standing.

The city gate was even more shabby, built with just a single wooden board.

Even for a city like this, Huo Qubing had a hundred ways to conquer it within a few breaths of time.
