The enemy was in chaos, and the enemy was in chaos.

Yuan Hu personally led the 5,000-man War Tiger Battalion to the rear camp where Tian Dong was. After quietly dealing with the patrol sentry, he started an inhumane massacre.

Until then, many people just reacted and gradually began to resist, and the fighting became more and more intense.

Tian Dong woke up from his sleep and just walked out of the tent when he was killed by Ji Gang, who had been ambushed outside the tent.

With the cooperation of the 80,000 Qin troops and the War Tiger Battalion, the defenders inside the pass were completely vulnerable and collapsed at the touch of a button.

The battle was resolved in less than an hour. Chen Yunque was also a ruthless person. Except for the soldiers of the War Tiger Camp, all others in the pass were killed without leaving any alive.

The surrendered soldiers under Tian Dong begged for mercy, but Chen Yunque was unmoved. After slaughtering all of them, Chen Yunque said to Li Siye: "General Li, arrange for some of your men to change into their clothes, and everything will be the same as before. The others will hide in the tents and stay at home."

"After dawn, there will be a caravan passing through the pass. Don't let anyone see the clues. We will stay in Tianjian Pass. After Qian Zhen and King Lu are both defeated, we will quickly rush to the capital to clean up the mess!"

Li Siye nodded and said: "The lord said that all actions must be under the command of His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince. I will act according to your instructions."

After thoroughly cleaning up the battlefield, the entire Tianjian Pass looked normal. The wind and snow overnight had already covered up the traces of the battle. The bodies of 20,000 soldiers were cremated overnight and all the ashes were buried.

From entering the pass to controlling the situation, Chen Yunque acted flawlessly and considered everything very carefully, all of which was seen by Ji Gang and Li Siye.

Rouran Royal Court, Hulun City, the current Rouran Dynasty Khan Mu Yulie made up his mind within two days after receiving the information from the Southern Legion. The 300,000 troops of the Western Legion of the Rouran Dynasty began to move towards the location of the Southern Legion.

The two major legions totaled 600,000 troops, and their target was Dahuang City.

Unlike Chen Li's situation in Beiting, Mu Yulie had a very high prestige in the Rouran Dynasty, with centralized power. The 1.2 million troops of the four Rouran legions all obeyed Mu Yulie's dispatch, and the entire Mu Yu royal family was prosperous and talented. One-third of the important officials in the court were royal family members.

In Mu Yulie's eyes, this opportunity to intervene in the Beiting civil war was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

His order to the two armies was to attack the interior of the country, but to slow down the pace as much as possible, until Qian Zhen and Chen Yunfeng were both defeated. If there was a chance, the two armies could take advantage of the situation and march south directly to occupy more territory, or even annex Beiting in one fell swoop.

It must be said that Mu Yulie's ambition was great. Compared with the northern grasslands with scarce resources, if the rich Beiting could be controlled by Rouran, after development and accumulation, the Rouran Dynasty would have the capital to be promoted to an imperial dynasty.

The news of Rouran's unusual movement was quickly received in Dahuang City. Chen Qing immediately sent the news back to Tingjing and personally led 120,000 Zhenbei troops to defend the border to the death.

On the battlefield outside Tingjing, after days of fierce fighting, Qian Zhen's 400,000 troops had lost more than 80,000 people. Although the attacking Lu Wang Army and the Imperial Guard Corps were more elite, they were not much better. They injured 1,000 enemies and lost 800 of their own, which was also extremely tragic.

The two Rouran armies converged in half a month and approached the city of Dahuang. The 600,000-man army spread over a wilderness in the northern border for more than ten miles, looking surging and boundless.

On the city wall, looking at the countless enemy troops, Chen Qing broke out in a cold sweat. In the history of Beiting, the Rouran Dynasty invaded on such a large scale for the first time, and the number of troops dispatched was unprecedented.

"Your Highness, the Western and Southern Armies have a total of 600,000 troops. It is difficult for us to defend the Northern Army with only 120,000."

A general looked at the densely packed enemies below and felt his scalp tingling and was powerless.

Nan Yan said firmly: "We have to defend even if we can't! Even if all our Zhenbei Army members died in the battle at Dahuangguancheng, we can't let the Rouran army step into Beiting!"

"Your Highness Prince Qing, will the eldest prince send us reinforcements?"

Chen Qing shook his head and said: "Before the battle in Tingjing is over, Your Highness can't spare any extra troops to support us. In this battle, we can only rely on ourselves."

The Zhenbei Army generals standing on the city wall were all silent. The difference in numbers was too big. Even with the advantage of the city wall, it would be difficult for the 120,000 Zhenbei Army to resist.

Enemy.

The 600,000-man army set up camp five miles outside the Great Wilderness City, but it seemed that they had no intention of immediately attacking the pass, which made Chen Qing secretly relieved, but the situation was still very serious. Once the war started, the Great Wilderness Pass would be lost, and the three states in the northern border and even the entire Beiting would inevitably be devastated and blood would flow.

In the palace of Tingjing City, Chen Yunfeng, who received the news that the 600,000 Rouran troops were pressing on the northern border, also changed his calm expression at this time. He knew in his heart that these 600,000 Rouran troops must be the work of Qian Zhen. Once the Great Wilderness Pass was lost, the 600,000 troops would march straight in, and he would inevitably end up in an extremely miserable situation.

But in the current situation, he could not spare any troops to support the Great Wilderness Pass, which seemed to have become a dead end.

More importantly, Qian Zhen's 400,000 troops were like a thorn in his throat, and he could not completely wipe them out for a while, which became Chen Yunfeng's heart disease.

Chen Yunfeng frowned and paced for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "I can give the same benefits that Qian Zhen promised to Rouran, and even more than Qian Zhen."

Lu Wang Chen Su shook his head and said, "No, the Rouran people are ambitious, how can we collude with them? If they enter the pass, the people of Beiting will suffer."

Chen Yunfeng said impatiently, "Uncle, but now the Rouran army of 600,000 is approaching. Once the Great Wilderness Pass is lost, they will rush south to help Qian Zhen, and we will end up in an irreparable end!"

Chen Su sighed and said no more. Luzhou still has 100,000 troops left, but they have to replace the East Palace Army to guard the border with the Yunxiao Dynasty in the east, so they must not move lightly.

"Your Highness, please be patient. First, send a message to Dahuang City and tell them that we have begun to dispatch reinforcements to reassure the soldiers at the border. We will then think of other countermeasures. Unless it is absolutely necessary, you must not think of collaborating with the enemy. Otherwise, even if you get the throne, you will lose the support of the people."

At the same time, Qian Zhen also received the news that the Rouran army was heading south. Unlike Chen Yunfeng, Qian Zhen was like a chicken blood, and immediately notified the generals at all levels under his command of this good news.

With the news of reinforcements, the morale of Qian Zhen's troops instantly stabilized a lot. Under the continuous attack of Chen Yunfeng's army, they seemed unusually calm and at ease.

The situation in Beiting has once again undergone tremendous changes due to the intervention of the Rouran Dynasty. The balance of victory began to tilt towards Qian Zhen and the third prince Chen Yunxuan.
