Chapter 556: Kun Wan's Defeat
As expected, the Xiongnu guards had no time to turn around and were met with the blade of the military soul, the white horse, from behind. Although they were able to block a few blows with Ulolan's legionary talent, the white horse's blade flashes were far more than just a few.

So when the Military Soul White Horse General Ulolan led the top Hun cavalry, the Hun guards who were part of the Military Soul Corps, to spit out from its "mouth", only residues were left.

The Xiongnu Guards, as a military soul corps, are very strong. Even with incomplete military souls, they can still exert the full combat effectiveness of the military souls. After all, the Xiongnu Guards' military soul skills can be used without a complete organization.

Moreover, after the Xiongnu Empire split and declined, the most important attribute of the Xiongnu Guards was no longer combat, but the carrier of the Xiongnu Empire's inheritance.

Today, buried in the military spirit of the Xiongnu Guards is not only the heritage of the Xiongnu Empire, but also the imperial will of the Xiongnu Empire.

As long as the military spirit of the Xiongnu Guards is completely shattered, the imperial will of the Xiongnu Empire will be engraved in the mark of history along with the military spirit of the Xiongnu Guards.

Even if Hu Yanchu's plan was really realized and the bald eagle took root in North America, would the Xiongnu Empire at that time still be the Xiongnu Empire in Hu Yanchu's eyes, memory, and nostalgia?

Maybe, after all, the bald eagle does carry the heritage of the Huns, as well as the Huns' belief that they are either Han or Hu. With the powerful combat capability of the Northern Huns, perhaps, just maybe, it is possible to really re-establish a new Hun Empire in North America.

However, comparing with Yang Ji's memory, it seems that the Northern Huns who sneaked into North America did not take root in North America in the end, but were swept into the inner world.

I don’t know what the Northern Huns in this world line will become in the end. I hope they won’t be swept into the inner world by the turbulence of time and space, and won’t sneak into North America.

……

Uluolan was probably the last Xiongnu guard to die here, and was killed by Gongsun Zan. After killing Uluolan, Gongsun Zan also successfully broke through to the level of internal energy leaving the body.

The expelled internal energy directly shattered the already scattered clouds of Zahu. Then, Gongsun Zan, with the momentum of the internal energy that had just broken through and left the body, launched a familiar killing charge towards Zahu.

Just like chopping melons and vegetables, the military soul white horse once again completely crushed the morale of the miscellaneous Hu people, and then the crying and shouting miscellaneous Hu people quickly gathered together.

Past experiences warned them that if they didn't want to die at the hands of Bai Ma, it would be best to do this, otherwise they would die faster. At least this way they would die slower, and maybe they wouldn't have to die at all.

Faced with this situation, Gongsun Zan wanted to continue chopping down the barbarians, but thinking about the recent changes in Youzhou, Gongsun Zan gave up this idea. After all, these miscellaneous Hu people could bring quite good benefits to the people of Youzhou.

Gongsun Zan glanced at the situation on the main battlefield, and then gave up the idea of ​​participating in the main battlefield. He let Zhou Yu handle it himself. If he rashly participated in it with the military soul white horse, it might destroy Zhou Yu's previous arrangements.

Ordering his men to round up the barbarians, Gongsun Zan began to sort out the gains he had made after breaking through the barrier of internal energy leaving his body.

Well, apart from not having the talent for awakening the legion, Gongsun Zan is a very regular person with perfect internal energy leaving his body. He is neither outstanding nor a fake. After all, he broke through in battle. How much more fake can he be?

Gongsun Zan didn't have much of a feeling about his breakthrough of internal energy leaving his body, other than the fact that he was full of vitality and was surprised that he didn't have any awakened legion talent. After all, he didn't really need the combat power of internal energy leaving his body.

"Is it because I don't have the qualifications to awaken the legion talent, or is there some other reason..." Gongsun Zan thought about the problem of not having the talent to awaken the legion. After all, he has been fighting for decades, so he should have accumulated a legion talent, right?

As a result, after he broke through the internal energy and left his body, he did not awaken his legion talent, which was very surprising.

Gongsun Zan couldn't figure out this problem, so he planned to put it aside for the time being and wait until after the war to find Yang Ji or someone else who could explain this problem to him and explain the reason to him.

Whether it was due to qualifications or some other reason, Gongsun Zan expressed that he was still very interested in this.

In fact, if Gongsun Zan could have realized earlier how the legion talent was born and what the essence of the legion talent was, perhaps he would have been able to figure out why he did not manifest the legion talent after breaking through the internal energy and leaving his body.

After all, Gongsun Zan had already awakened the legion talent a long time ago, and his situation was similar to that of Ju Yi and Gao Shun. He had long ago awakened his own legion talent and integrated it into the legion's talent.

Unlike Hua Xiong, the others first had the legion talent, then completed the talent cutting, and finally completed the breakthrough of internal energy leaving the body. However, Hua Xiong first broke through the internal energy leaving the body, awakened the legion talent, and then completed the talent cutting.

By the way, Hua Xiong's legion talent is called kinetic energy conversion, which means that when the legion covered by this talent encounters discontinuous attacks, it can convert these discontinuous kinetic energy attacks into speed, attack power and defense power. Now, this talent has been incorporated into the Feixiong Army's talents as Hua Xiong's headquarters has been integrated into the Feixiong Army on a large scale.

……

As the Soul of the Army Bai Ma defeated the Zaohu detachment and completely annihilated one third of the Xiongnu guards, the morale of the Zaohu on the main battlefield plummeted. In addition, the elite Northern Xiongnu could not break through the Han army's front line for a long time, which caused the Zaohu's morale, which had just begun to rise, to fall to the bottom again in an instant.

Those miscellaneous Hu people who rushed the fastest and had the strongest fighting will against the Han army were cut off from the rear army by the White Horse Volunteers who attacked from the flank, breaking their command line and causing them to fall into siege by the Han army.

Also caught up in the siege were some elite Northern Huns, whose resistance was the most fierce. Under the leadership of these Northern Huns, the fighting power of the soldiers with stronger fighting will among the miscellaneous Hu people should not be underestimated.

However, under Zhou Yu's command, these enemy troops who resisted most fiercely were trapped in one area, and then bombarded by the Danyang soldiers who had borrowed the strength of their comrades.

Although some Northern Xiongnu soldiers and hundreds of thousands of miscellaneous Hu people who were surrounded by the Han army showed their indomitable fighting spirit and demonstrated that their combat effectiveness was not inferior to that of the Han army.

However, they were all eventually captured by the Han army. The Northern Huns and the diehards among the miscellaneous Hu were killed, while the rest who had wavered and wanted to surrender to the Han army were temporarily detained, awaiting further processing.

The remnants of the Northern Xiongnu and 70,000 to 80,000 miscellaneous Hu were gathered by Kun Wan, and they formed a battle formation and slowly withdrew from the battlefield.

From the beginning to the end, Kun Wan had no intention of personally fighting in addition to commanding the army, which made people wonder whether he had received instructions from Hu Yanchu. …

"What a pity that we couldn't keep the Xiongnu guards." Zhang Fei said with regret. The triple-smelted Xiongnu guards were really strong. If he hadn't activated the legion's talents to maximum power, his Youyun Cavalry might have been the ones to be defeated.

“Come on, a legion with an average of triple smelting has already stepped into the threshold of decisive battle arms. After you activate the legion talent, you can lead the Youyun Cavalry to fight to the death against a legion of this level, and still retain more than half of the establishment. It is already remarkable.” Zhou Yu shook his head and said.

"Speaking of which, after you fully activated the legion's talents, what is the current situation of your soldiers?" Zhou Yu looked at the Youyun Cavalry that was emitting black smoke all over its body and asked hesitantly. He couldn't figure out whether the current Youyun Cavalry had mutated or not.

"Ah this..." Zhang Fei scratched his head and said nothing. Could he say that he didn't know what his own headquarters had mutated into?
After all, the talent structure of the Youyun Cavalry, coupled with the fully-powered legion talents, plus the Zhao Yun legion talents reflected by Zhuge Liang, when the three are superimposed together, God knows what impact it will have on the Youyun Cavalry.

Although Zhuge Liang eliminated the calming effect when reflecting Zhao Yun's legion talent, he only retained the effect of immunity to negative effects.

Hmm... it seems that this description is very ambiguous, but this is the fact. After Zhuge Liang reflected Zhao Yun's legion talent, he did not calm down the frightened Youyun Cavalry. He just exempted some of the negative effects, allowing the Youyun Cavalry to withstand the deeper rendering of Zhang Fei's legion talent.

When fighting a desperate battle with the Xiongnu guards, Zhang Fei didn't think there was anything wrong with the Youyun Cavalry emitting black smoke. After all, that was the style of his legion.

However, when Kun Wan retreated with the remnants of the Northern Huns and some miscellaneous Hu people, and Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang took back the legion's talents, the strange phenomenon on the Youyun Cavalry did not subside, and the black smoke that came out became even more terrifying.

At the same time, the black smoke coming out of the Youyun Cavalry even affected the rest of the normal Han army, forcing Zhou Yu to use cloud gas to isolate the Youyun Cavalry to prevent the black smoke billowing out of the Youyun Cavalry from affecting the rest of the normal Han army.

Fortunately, the clouds can block the effect of the black smoke, otherwise Zhou Yu could only ask Zhuge Liang to re-reflect Zhao Yun’s legion talents and suppress the strange phenomenon on the Youyun Cavalry.

"Hiss, I have no way to solve your problem. Does anyone of you have any solution?" Zhou Yu saw Zhang Fei's dilemma, so he asked for help from Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi, Pang Tong, and even Sun Ce.

Zhuge Liang and others remained silent, but Sun Ce's eyes rolled wildly, as if he had grasped something.

"Bofu, what do you want to say?" Zhou Yu was the person who knew Sun Ce best and immediately noticed Sun Ce's expression.

Zhuge Liang and others couldn't help but look at Sun Ce. Who would have thought that it was Sun Ce who came up with the idea first.

"Burn it!" Sun Ce gave his answer very concisely. The answer was illogical, but very Sun Ce.

"Burn it?" Zhou Yu frowned slightly, thoughts in his mind constantly colliding, wondering why Sun Ce came up with this solution.

Zhang Fei looked at Sun Ce thoughtfully. Sun Ce's solution made him think a lot. After all, he was the one who understood his own legion's talents best. Although his feelings were not as deep as those of the Youyun Cavalry, as a holder of legion talents, he could understand better why Sun Ce proposed to burn the black smoke.

The black smoke is the embodiment of fear. Perhaps due to various coincidences, Youyunqi has acquired the ability to expel fear.

Zhang Fei had never thought of expelling fear in this direction before, but judging from the results, the effect of expelling fear is quite good. At least among the surviving Youyun knights, not many of them have their minds polluted by fear.

Compared to before, it’s really not much.

However, Zhang Fei could clearly feel that this was just an appearance. The minds of those soldiers who actively or passively materialized fear and expelled it from their bodies were still contaminated by the pollution of fear and were not completely immune to the negative effects brought by fear.

After hearing Sun Ce's suggestion to burn the fear, Zhang Fei thought of an idea that Yang Ji had once told him about that could solve the current problem of the Youyun Cavalry.

When Zhang Fei was discussing with Yang Ji how to solve the problem of Youyun Cavalry, Yang Ji introduced to Zhang Fei a power system called [Heart Abyss]. It is a power that is a seed planted by the commander to the soldiers and then guided out by the commander. It is a power that directly penetrates the hearts of the soldiers.

Yang Ji told Zhang Fei that most of the soldiers were just ordinary people. It was extremely difficult to let them rely on their own strength to get out of fear and overcome fear. Anyone who could stand out from Zhang Fei's legion talent must either have special talents, or achieve the ability to let internal energy leave the body, or break through the limits of normal will.

But how many people can do this?
Can these operations, which are impossible for ordinary people to complete, be replicated by all the soldiers of Youyun Cavalry?

Reality tells Zhang Fei that maybe someone can replicate it, but most ordinary people cannot replicate it on themselves.

Therefore, no matter how Zhang Fei modified the talent structure of the Youyun Cavalry, he could not change the fact that most of the ordinary soldiers of the Youyun Cavalry could not rely on themselves to transcend the fear of the dark side of their hearts, because that was the fear that came from the dark side of their hearts.

How many people can face their deepest fears and break free from them?
What's more, Zhang Fei used his legion talent to constantly stimulate fear from the depths of his heart. The harbor of his soul was directly overwhelmed by fear, and there was no place to hide.

At this time, if someone could project a ray of light from the outside world to help the soldiers resist the fear surging from the dark side of their hearts, allowing the soldiers to gain a corner of space to turn around, would the possibility of the soldiers walking out of the dark side of their hearts increase?
At first, Zhang Fei could not understand what Yang Ji meant by projecting a ray of light to the soldiers to help them get out of fear.

However, seeing the fear embodied in the Youyun Cavalry today and Sun Ce's idea of ​​"igniting fear", Zhang Fei suddenly realized that Yang Ji's original idea did seem to be impossible to accomplish.

However, there is a more fatal problem. Yang Ji does not have the construction data of the Heart Abyss. Yang Ji only knows about the Heart Abyss, but he does not know how to project the Heart Abyss seeds and penetrate the hearts of the soldiers.

"It seems that I have to go find Zijian to smooth things over." Zhang Fei looked towards the direction of the Western Regions. Further west of the Western Regions was the land that gave birth to Xinyuan.
