Chapter 487 – Temporary Peace
After Liao Hua died, all cataphracts stopped charging. However, Xiahou Yuan thought that they panicked because they had lost their leader.
The archer general calmly sniped cataphracts one after another while the local garrison forces evacuated all civilians from the wall area.
By the time that the gates were closed, Xiahou Yuan already killed 500 soldiers on his own.
"Eh… I don't know if they're stupid or they have a genius plan. I'll just kill them when I can."
.
In the end, Xiahou Yuan stopped killing when 5,000 of cataphracts died. He finally noticed that they just waited there, looking back at Xiahou Yuan with blank eyes.
When one of his scouts approached the cataphracts to negotiate with them, the latter did not react. Instead, they fell from their horses as if they ran out of strength.
