Chapter 135: The fall of Yanmen Pass (please subscribe for the third update)

Hu Chuquan didn’t know whether the scene described by Yuv Luo could be realized, but he knew that the Central Plains was definitely a big quagmire.

The Yellow Turbans and the Han Dynasty have already fallen into an army of more than one million people, not to mention the Huns?

Once the 140,000 Xiongnu were trapped and unable to get out in the end, what would happen to their old lair in Monan and the Hetao? Huchuquan thought to himself.

Thinking of this, Huchuquan couldn't help but get excited and shouted: "Chanyu, Huchuquan opposes the increase of troops."

Yu Fuluo was stunned. He did not expect that Huchuquan would oppose him at this time, so he said coldly: "Reason?"

On such a major issue of right and wrong concerning the fate of the clan, Hu Chuquan was not afraid of his brother's prestige and said to himself: "Have Shan Yu ever thought that if we continue to mobilize troops, if we fall into the quagmire of war and cannot get out, our lair will What should we do about Monan and Hetao? That’s where we have our roots.”

King Guli and other Xiongnu commanders couldn't help but nodded when they heard this. The prerequisite for expanding territory is to ensure the security of the original territory. You can't abandon your old nest just to occupy new territory. Besides, tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall. What's the point?

"Hmph, a quagmire of war? A joke. The Han people are cowardly. Except for the Yanmen Army, there is no army that can stop my cavalry. If the Yanmen Army loses Yanmen Pass, it will also not be able to withstand a single charge from our army, so why is there a quagmire of war? What to say?”

Humphrey's eyes were full of disdain, and he laughed arrogantly, showing an arrogant attitude that he didn't care about the people in the world.

"As for the threat from Mobei, as long as our army can successfully occupy Bingzhou, what if there is still an empty Hetao in Monan? Do those scared guys dare to launch an army against my great Huns?" Yu Fulo's lips curled up slightly, sneered.

Huchuquan couldn't help but be silent for a while after hearing this. The tribes in Mobei had indeed been frightened by Temujin for a long time. Without the news that the Huns were 100% defeated, it was indeed impossible for them to dare to wage war against the Huns.

But everything will really go as smoothly as Shanyu said. Is the Yanmen Army really unable to prevent a Xiongnu charge?

 I don’t know whether others believe it or not, but Huchuquan doesn’t believe it anyway.

 “Chanyu…”

Hu Chuquan was about to persuade him again, but was interrupted by Hufro before he could say anything.

"That's enough. Going south will never change. As King Zuo Xian, who is under the great Huns, what you should consider now is how to capture Yanmen Pass at the least cost, instead of trying to persuade this Shanyu to give up this Great opportunity." Yu Fuluo said coldly: "Huchuquan, I will give you five days at the end. If you can't take Yanmen Pass...hum, Temujin will be your role model."

Temujin was not only given a hundred whips for contradicting Yuvluo, but the 20,000 troops he had lost before were all replaced by the Youxian King.

Of course this is not the end, Temujin himself was also sent to the three northern and central counties to "consolidate the rear."

 This is also the reason why Temujin did not participate in the war this time.

Is the person in front of me really my eldest brother? A trace of sadness and disappointment flashed in Hu Chuquan's eyes. His eldest brother had really changed, so much so that he didn't even recognize him.

　　Although Huvroud used to be headstrong, he could at least listen to what others said. Now he doesn't even listen to his own brother.

At this time, Huchuquan couldn't help but think of his younger brother Temujin who was whipped a hundred times but didn't say a word.

At that time, was Temujin as disappointed as me?

When everyone in the big tent saw this, something strange suddenly arose in their hearts. What on earth is going on with Chanyu?

Having established his prestige with the virtuous king of the right, should he now use the virtuous king of the left to establish his prestige?

Since Yuvluo issued the death order, Huchuquan had to use all his strength. He did not want to have the same fate as Temujin. Yue Fei had long been prepared for a tiring and protracted battle. However, although the Yanmen Army also took turns to defend the city, their numbers were limited after all. After another day of fierce fighting, their condition would always decline partially on the second day.

But the Huns' 100,000-strong army took turns attacking the city, so they were always in the best condition. In contrast, the Yanmen Army, which was in declining condition, naturally fell into a hard fight.

On the second day, Huchuquan did not choose to attack the city by force like the first day. Instead, he used shields to cover the archers, and then cooperated with the infantry to attack the city in various ways.

Yu Fuluo only gave Huchuquan five days, but after Huchuquan figured out the strength of the Yanmen army, he did not want to rush through the barrier, but consumed the strength of the Yanmen defenders bit by bit.

Facing the Xiongnu’s instigation, the disadvantage of insufficient training of the reorganized army was quickly revealed.

 After a battle, the Yanmen Army suffered 1,000 casualties, doubling the number of casualties than before, while the Xiongnu suffered 3,000 casualties, and the casualty ratio between the two sides dropped to 1:3.

On the third day, Huchuquan, who had tasted the sweetness, continued the previous tactics. Yue Fei saw that Huchuquan wanted stability, so he only had to defend tightly.

On the third day, the Yanmen Army suffered another thousand casualties and the Huns suffered 2,500 casualties. The casualty ratio dropped to 1:2.5.

On the fourth day, the Yanmen Army suffered 1,500 casualties and the Huns suffered 2,500 casualties. The casualty ratio dropped to 1:1.66.

On the fifth day, the Yanmen Army, which had only 3,000 defenders left, suffered 2,000 casualties, while the Huns also suffered 2,000 casualties, with a casualty ratio of 1:1. The casualties between the attacking and defending sides were even.

Five days passed quickly, and during these five days, Yanmen Pass was completely turned into a meat grinder. There were corpses everywhere outside the pass, and the ground was dyed blood red.

In the five-day battle, the Yanmen Army's garrison dropped from 7,000 to 1,000, while the Xiongnu only suffered 13,000 casualties. With a fortress like Yanmen Pass, but a record of 1:2.16, it is really not that good.

But you need to know that the defenders in Yue Fei's hands are all new soldiers, not Yanmen's regular army. Only a group of new soldiers can hold back the wolf-like 100,000 Huns for five days. If Yue Fei's hands are Yanmen's regular army, then the Huns' casualties will be absolute. will double.

The Huns on the other side were already immersed in joy. Yanmen Pass, which they had been attacking for four years, was finally about to fall, and only at the cost of 13,000 men. How could Yuvluo be unhappy?

But Tiffany seems to have forgotten one thing. Before this, the Huns had already lost 40,000 troops and horses. Adding these 13,000 troops, it would be 53,000.

I don’t know if Hufrault can still laugh if he thinks like this.

An orderly soldier rushed into the tent excitedly and said breathlessly: "Qi, Qi, Shanyu, Yanmen Pass was captured by King Zuo Xian."

After Yu Fuluo heard this, he was stunned. He had been attacking Yanmen Pass for four years, and now it was defeated so easily. He couldn't believe it.

While Yuvluo was stunned, Huchuquan strode in, knelt down on one knee, and shouted: "Huchuquan has completed his mission and has breached Yanmen Pass within five days. Yanmen Pass guard Yue Fei led more than a thousand remaining troops to escape. Return to Guangwu.”

“Hahaha, Qin Wen and Qin Hao, without Yanmen Pass, let’s see how you can fight with me.” Yu Fulo laughed.

【The climax of this volume is about to begin, and the real war is about to begin. In the next chapter, a top local figure will appear, among the Bingzhou reinforcements. I believe everyone has guessed it. 】
