To sum it up, the current situation was that in order to preserve his tribe's combat strength and avoid future reckoning by other tribal chiefs, the Chanyu of the Xiongnu had simply abandoned this group of people, leaving them to die in battle within Da Qian.
Even if his reputation might suffer somewhat, what use was a reputation on the grasslands? Might had always made right! No matter how ruined one's reputation became, as long as the tribe was strong and prosperous, one was the king of the grasslands!
After roughly figuring out the situation, both Wang Tong and Lou Lin were in high spirits. Even though the Xiongnu Chanyu had escaped with the main force this time, recapturing Canglan City without losing a single soldier or blade allowed them to minimize the casualties among their own troops, especially since everything in Canglan City remained completely intact.
