----------------------------------------------

On July [-]th, Yelu Abaoji, who escaped the catastrophe of Jincheng by leading scouts to go out, fled back to the north bank of the Sanggan River with Qianqi in a panic, and brought back a man who made the coalition marshal Yelu Shilu unbelievable. Bad news about the defeat: Jincheng was defeated!

Just when the tribal coalition forces had successively captured Huairen, Heyin, Hunyuan, and Yingcheng cities, they had wiped out almost [-] Qin troops and tens of thousands of young men who assisted the Qin army, and finally used the seized Qin army gunpowder Digging tunnels and blasting the walls of Jincheng, at the last moment of preparing to enjoy the victory, reinforcements from the Qin army suddenly arrived.

The [-] tribal allied forces went south, [-] were killed in battle, [-] were captured, and only a thousand fled to break through. The [-] Qin army was taking advantage of the victory and heading north.

"Father commander fought desperately. He has already died in the battle. There are no bones left. There are [-] troops. Only the nephew escaped because he was away." Yelu Abaoji cried, his eyes were red and swollen, and he gritted his teeth, "Uncle, you must avenge your nephew. Blood hatred!"

The Khitan was in Yue, Yelu Shilu, Marshal of the Southern Expedition, turned pale when he heard the words, and remained silent for a long time.

His younger brother Yeluzaci was killed in battle, the [-] allied army was wiped out, and all the counties of Yingcheng Huairen that had been conquered were lost again.

This not only meant that he had lost a quarter of his troops going south, but it was also a severe blow to their Yelu family.At the same time, it is even worse for the current war.In the original plan, capturing the area of ​​Jincheng would not only capture Zhang Zimian's food and supplies for his westward expedition, but more importantly, cut off Zhang Zimian's return route, divide the two states of Yunshuo in Datong, and divide Zhang Zimian's army from the west. The soldiers and horses were trapped in Shuozhou and could not return to help Yunzhou, so that he could break through Yunzhou calmly, then take Shuozhou, and then return to Shuozhou and send troops to the front of the mountain.

But now, this strategic plan has completely failed.

"The Qin army reacted too quickly, and their reinforcements arrived at Jincheng without a sound." Yelu Shilu sighed.

"Marshal, if the support troops of the Qin army join Zhang Zimian and go northward, it will be [-] Qin troops. We have to step up our offensive against Yunzhou to avoid long nights and dreams."

When the good news was delivered to Li Jing, Li Jing had just arrived at the Great Wall in the northwest of Wuzhou, and before he could get off his horse, the good news mission had already rushed over, almost dying of running, but his face was still full of joy. With great joy, "Great victory in Jincheng, Admiral Liu led [-] reinforcements to Jincheng in time, arrived at the critical moment when the Hu people broke through the outer city wall, and defeated the Hu army. More than [-] enemies were wiped out in the first battle, and more than [-] were captured." , and then took advantage of the momentum to recover Yingcheng, Heyin, and Hunyuan city gates one after another. Not only did they recover the cities south of the Sanggan River, but they also crossed the Sanggan River and regained Huairen County. Now the army is moving along the Qingpo Road Going north, we are about to reach Yunzhou to support the enemy."

Li Jing, King of Qin, straddled his horse, looking far away inside and outside the Great Wall, and ordered in a deep voice that the whole army prayed and observed 5 minutes of silence for all the soldiers and common people who died in the Battle of Jincheng.

Afterwards, Li Jing issued the King Qin Order, formally enfeoffing Liu Xun as Duke of Yingcheng County, and appointed him as the head of the newly-built Wansheng Legion with 3 people from the Five Armies to aid Jincheng.At the same time, Gao Rong, Zhang Yun, Liu Zhijun, the four generals of Qin Zongshou and Zhang Yu were all promoted to Marquis, Gao Rong was named Huairenhou, Zhang Yun was named Heyinhou, Liu Zhijun was named Hunyuanhou, Zhang Yu was named Jinchenghou, All four of them were county marquises, and they took up the posts of legion officers of the Wansheng Legion respectively.

After the silence, the whole army cheered.

The great victory in Jincheng completely annihilated the [-] Hu people who went south, and defended Jincheng, a pivotal area. This is excellent news for the entire army.

The names of Liu Xun and Zhang Yu became the most popular names among the soldiers.

He became a marquis in World War I, and was worshiped by countless soldiers.

Li Jing looked at the bustling barracks and stood on the ruined Great Wall with a smile on his face, "This is just the beginning."

At the same time as the Battle of Jincheng, Li Jing's other two comrades, Dong Zhang and Li Si'an, had already led their troops across the Great Wall and rushed all the way to the Dongyang River.As expected, they did not see Li Siyuan's troops at the entrance of the Great Wall, so they were not too worried.Li Siyuan's failure to arrive here does not mean that Li Siyuan died outside the pass.

Here, there is still seventy miles away from the place where Yang Lin and Li Siyuan separated.This time, Li Si'an and Dong Zhang started to speed up without waiting for Yang Lin's urging.

The speed at which [-] cavalrymen advanced made Yang Lin feel overwhelmed.

At this time, Yang Lin turned to persuade Li Si'an that he had already left the customs, and he might run into Hu people at any time, should he be smaller and don't come to Baishuiluo again.At the beginning, Li Siyuan chased the Hu people all the way out of the customs, and finally met the Hu people in an ambush at Baishuiluo, and was defeated, almost wiped out.

However, the second general Li Si'an, who had kept advancing with spare energy before, was uncharacteristically this time, and just replied to Yang Lin lightly, "It is because we have already passed the customs that we have to hurry. appeared in front of him."

Li Siyuan woke up suddenly, and jumped up from under the tree, what was the commotion about?

Since dark, although the Hu people have not yet launched a large-scale attack, they have surrounded the valley tightly, and have continuously sent small troops to harass.Moreover, these Hu people are very cunning, and they can't relax for a moment when they harass, because you don't know when they are real and when they are fake. They shot an arrow, but there was another small army quietly climbing the mountain, trying to sneak into the valley.

Under such circumstances, the thousands of Shatuo people in the valley could only take full precautions.Li Siyuan insisted on guarding Taniguchi all the time, but he was so exhausted that he accidentally fell asleep.

"General, it seems that the barbarians are harassing again." A tooth soldier came over. "Damn barbarians!" In the eyes of this Shatuo soldier, they are not barbarians, they are already from Tang Dynasty.Sometimes, they even feel that they are stronger than the Tang people. Hu people refer to those barbarians outside the Great Wall.

"Are barbarians harassing?" Li Siyuan's eyes were bloodshot and extremely red. "No, it's not harassment, this movement is wrong."

Li Siyuan slammed on the ground, put the sword pot on the ground, and put his ears on it to listen.

He heard horseshoes, and many.

His complexion changed drastically. At this time, it was not far from dawn, it was the last dark time before dawn, and it was also the time when a person was the most tired and the easiest to fall asleep.It must be the Hu people who are about to launch a large-scale attack.

"Wake up everyone and get ready to fight, the barbarians are going to attack!" Li Siyuan shouted loudly.

And at this time outside the valley, Tie Muci had just woken up from his sleep.

He also heard the sound of a large number of horseshoes, and a large group of people and horses were approaching.

Tiemu stood up sharply, grabbed the mace and rushed out of the tent, only to see the camp of the Goguryeo tribe in the east was ablaze, and there were terrified shouts and shouts everywhere, "Qin army, Qin army attacked!" The camp is over, Gao Tansheng is dead!"

Tie Muci roared anxiously: "Prepare the horse for Lao Tzu, hurry up!"

But at this time, a cavalry army was looming in the fire, and it was accompanied by the sound of violent explosions from time to time. The small tribal leaders and their warriors in the big world panicked.

On the dark night before dawn, there were fires everywhere, and panicked tribal warriors everywhere. They ran around between the tents in the dark night, yelling frightening news one after another, "Qin Jun is coming!" It's here." "Qin King Li Jing is here." "Li Jing brought an army of [-] to kill." "We were surrounded by the Qin army." "It's not good, Gui Chi'er is dead." "Tiemu stabbed to death!"

......

Tiemu Ci finally got on his horse, but he heard a group of Tatar subordinates shouting that Tiemu Ci was dead, and ran around naked.He was so angry that he almost vomited blood, swung his big stick, and directly hit the guy who shouted the loudest, smashing his brains out.

Several flustered soldiers were executed in a row, and Tiemu Ci finally stopped the panic here, gradually reorganized the troops in the headquarters, and then moved closer to the Guichier Division, which was also the Tatar Alliance.After the two parts were assembled, I was finally determined.

Seeing this, the other Hu soldiers gathered together and gradually stabilized their morale.

"Assemble, assemble, assemble this way!"

The chaos gradually stopped, but in the east, there was already a huge fire, and the Goguryeo tribe and several small tribes, several tribe camps with nearly 5000 people, were completely enveloped in a fire.

Tiemu Ci grabbed a Goguryeo warrior who was fleeing, and shouted, "What's the matter? Where is Gao Tansheng? Tell him to come see me!"

"Gao Tansheng has been killed."

"Who did it, Qin Jun? How many Qin Jun?"

"I don't know, it's everywhere!"

"Then where are they now?" Tiemu Ci didn't see half of the Qin army except for a big fire at this time.

At this moment, at Taniguchi in the south, there was a sudden violent explosion, followed by the sound of countless swords and guns, as well as screams.

Tie Mu stab was startled, no good, Qin Jun went to Taniguchi, their purpose was to rescue Li Siyuan.Perhaps the number of the Qin army was not large. When thinking this way, the small tribe that Taniguchi was guarding on duty had been directly beaten, and then they were defeated and fled in all directions.

In the darkness, the sound of horseshoes sounded like a storm, and then a louder roar went straight to Yunxiao.

"Sha Tuo is not dead!"

"Long live King Qin!"

......

Following these roars, in the faint light of the flames, Li Siyuan, who was in blood-stained robes, leaped out of the valley with his spear horizontally, and led more than [-] remnants of Shatuo's soldiers bravely out of the valley.

"Form the formation and prepare to meet the enemy!"

Tiemu Ci was startled by Li Siyuan's ferocious and terrifying aura in the firelight, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and did not dare to lead his troops to charge up directly.Instead, he took a few steps back unconsciously. In the darkness, Tiemu Ci, who had just been caught off guard, didn't know how many Qin troops suddenly killed him, but just relying on the opponent to kill Gao Tansheng and them by nearly 5000 The men and horses were defeated.The strength of the opponent is definitely very strong. He judged that at least [-] to [-] horses were needed to break through the Goguryeo camp in such a short period of time.

The enemy's situation was unknown, so he didn't dare to attack rashly, he chose to defend.

Hu Qi seemed to be facing an enemy, panting heavily, waiting for the fierce attack of the Qin army.

One stick of incense time passed.

Time for a cup of tea is over again.

Another quarter of an hour passed,

Finally, half an hour passed.

The expected ferocious attack did not come. On the contrary, the flames of war gradually extinguished, and the screams gradually stopped. The whole battlefield became more and more quiet, but even the breath of the Qin army and Shatuo people could not be found.

Qin Jun led the Shatuo people away, and Tie Muci and Gui Chi'er looked at each other, their old faces becoming more and more ugly under the torch.Qin Jun ran away? Why?

At this moment, a sudden sound of horseshoes broke the eerie tranquility and came in a hurry.

"They're coming, get ready!"

Tie Muji's heart beat violently, and he roared loudly.

One after another, the barbarians drew their bows and arrows, aiming at the darkness.

After a while, the sound of horseshoes was getting closer and closer, and the bows of the barbarians were getting fuller and fuller!

Just when Ironwood Thorn's raised hand was about to wave down, he saw the flag of Gao Tansheng appearing in the firelight.

Then, under the banner, Gao Tansheng appeared.Behind him, there are more than two thousand riders!

Then, there was nothing, nothing, not a single Qin army.

"What's going on, Gao Tansheng!" Gui Chi'er yelled.Just now the Goguryeo camp was obviously burned down, and the Goguryeo soldiers who fled also said that Gao Tansheng and the others were dead, but now they suddenly jumped out again, which made him feel miserable and panicked.

"Don't shoot the arrows, I'm not dead yet, but I was raided and robbed the camp in the dark just now, and I was scattered for a while. I packed up the soldiers and horses, and came back again." Gao Tansheng said it nicely, but in fact, Qin Jun rushed After entering his camp, he fled immediately without any resistance.He not only escaped by himself, but also let his subordinates escape, and escaped far away.Fortunately, those who attacked the camp did not pursue, but set fire for a while to attract the attention of the barbarians, captured Taniguchi, rescued Li Siyuan, and left.

Gao Tansheng hid aside and came back only after seeing that he was safe.

"Is it Qin Jun?"

"Well, yes, it is indeed Qin Jun."

"How many are they?"

"At least [-]!" Gao Tansheng said.

Tie Muthorn stared at him coldly, "How much?"

"Estimated at twenty thousand."

"How much?" Tiemu Ci didn't believe that there were thirty thousand, nor did he believe that there were twenty thousand.If there were so many people, how could they miss the opportunity to annihilate them.

"Maybe more than 1. It's dark and I can't see clearly." Gao Tansheng said with some guilt under Tie Muci's stare. He exaggerated Qin Jun's figures just to save face for himself.After all, 5000 of them were defeated in one fell swoop.

Temuji's hand pressed onto the handle of the scimitar.

"Oh, I remembered, it seems to be about five thousand, no, three thousand. Almost three thousand, all light cavalry, very elite, red battle robes, black military flags, all wearing half-length breastplates, pot helmets, and equipped with Rifles, sabers, crossbows, and thunderbolts. The elite cavalry of the Qin army, if they hadn't attacked us, we would not have been defeated, and we were completely caught off guard."

"Three thousand?"

"Three thousand."

Tiemu Ci's face immediately turned from white to red and then turned purple. Three thousand Qin soldiers touched them unknowingly, and instantly smashed their camp of 5000 people, and under the eyes of 2 people , rescued Li Siyuan who was besieged in the valley with three thousand riders, and left.

"Damn!"

"**!"

Tiemu La and Gui Chi'er cursed at almost the same time, and then they looked at each other, and they both saw the anger after being tricked in each other's eyes.

"Chasing!" Tie Muca waved his mace, roared angrily, and took the lead in chasing him into the darkness in the east.

If you dare to play with them, you have to pay a heavy price.Damn it, 3000 people dare to come, do you really treat them as dead people?Even if they add Li Siyuan's 3000 people now, he, Tiemu Thorn, will definitely make them bear his anger.Just in time, Li Siyuan, who left the mouse hole, and a group of arrogant Qin people, now he wants to chop off their heads one by one, and kick them as balls!
