Seeing the Turkic cavalry begin their retreat, Li Hongyun finally reined in his warhorse and did not lead the hundred riders across the river.
However, he still kept his eyes on the Turkic people from this side of the river ditch.
Not until he saw the over ten thousand cavalry all descend from Wulong Slope and retreat towards the distant Turkic main camp did he lead his hundred riders back to the formations of the Liang Army, retreating to within the walls of Binzhou State.
After having done all this, Li Hongyun felt his heart pounding wildly.
"I strut, then dash—how thrilling!"
After all, he was not Lord Qin, but merely impersonating him.
So, his previous composure was mostly feigned; in reality, he was quite panicked.
That cry of "I am Lord Qin too" served not only to deter the enemy and boost the morale of his own men but also to bolster Li Hongyun's own courage.
