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

On July 7, Yelu Abaoji, who escaped the disaster of Jincheng because he led the detective cavalry out, fled back to the north bank of the Sanggan River in a panic, and brought back a defeat that made the coalition marshal Yelu Shilu unbelievable: Jincheng was defeated!

Just as the tribal coalition had successively captured Huairen, Heyin, Hunyuan, and Yingcheng, almost wiped out 10,000 Qin troops, and tens of thousands of young and strong men who assisted the Qin army. In the end, they had used the captured Qin army gunpowder to dig tunnels and exploded the Jincheng walls. At the last moment when they were about to enjoy the victory, the Qin army's reinforcements suddenly arrived.

Fifty thousand tribal coalition forces went south, 30,000 were killed in battle, 10,000 were captured, and only more than a thousand fled to break through. Thirty thousand Qin troops were taking advantage of the victory to head north.

"The father-in-chief fought to the death, and he had already died in the battle formation, and his corpse was gone. The 50,000 troops were only the nephew who escaped by chance." Yelu Abaoji cried, his eyes swollen, and he gritted his teeth, "Uncle, you must avenge your nephew's blood!"

Khitan Yu Yue, and Yelu Shilu, the marshal of the Southern Expedition, turned pale when he heard this, and was silent for a long time.

The younger brother Yelu Sass was killed in battle, and 50,000 coalition forces were wiped out. All counties of Yingcheng Huairen were lost again.

This not only means that he lost one-quarter of his troops to move south, but also a heavy blow to their Yelu family. At the same time, it is even worse for the current war. In the original plan, taking down the Jincheng area will not only capture the food, grass and supplies of Zhang Zimian's Western Expedition Army, but more importantly, cut off Zhang Zimian's way back, divide the two states of Datong and Yunshuo, trap Zhang Zimian's troops in Shuozhou and cannot return to Yunzhou, so that he can calmly break Yunzhou first, then take Shuozhou. Then attack Shuozhou and sail in front of the mountain.

But now, this strategic plan has failed completely.

"The Qin army reacted too quickly, and their reinforcements arrived in Jincheng quietly." Yelu Shilu sighed.

"Master General, if the Qin army's reinforcements join Zhang Zimian to the north, it will be 50,000 Qin troops. We have to step up our offensive against Yunzhou, so as not to have too many dreams."

When the victory was delivered to Li Jing, Li Jing had just arrived at the entrance of the Great Wall in the northwest of Wuzhou. Before he could get off his horse, the mission of the victory was already rushed over and almost ran away, but his face was still filled with great joy. "After the victory in Jincheng, Admiral Liu led 30,000 reinforcements to Jincheng in time, arrived at the critical moment when the Hu people broke through the outer city walls, and defeated the Hu army. He killed more than 10,000 enemies and captured more than 10,000 prisoners in one battle. Then he took advantage of the opportunity to recover Yingcheng, Heyin, and Hunyuan Zhucheng Pass, not only recovered Zhucheng south of the Sanggan River. He also had already crossed the Sanggan River and recovered Huairen County. Now the army is heading north along the Qing slope and is about to arrive in Yunzhou to support the enemy."

King Li Jing of Qin sat on the war horse, far away inside and outside the Great Wall, and ordered in a deep voice that the entire army prayed for five minutes of silence for all the soldiers and people who died in the Battle of Jincheng.

Subsequently, Li Jing issued the order of King Qin, officially promoted Liu Xun to Duke Yingcheng County, and appointed him as the commander of the newly built Wansheng Legion of the 30,000 troops of the Five Armies to aid Jincheng City. At the same time, Gao Rong, Zhang Yun, Liu Zhijun, the four generals of Qin Zongguan and Zhang Yu were all promoted to Marquis, Gao Rong was granted the title of Marquis of Huairen, Zhang Yun was granted the title of Marquis of Heyin, Liu Zhijun was granted the title of Marquis of Hunyuan, and Zhang Yu was granted the title of Marquis of Jincheng. All four were county marquis and took office as the corps officers of the Wansheng Legion respectively.

After the silence, there was cheering from the whole army.

The great victory in Jincheng completely annihilated the 50,000 Hu people who went south and defended the Jincheng hub area. This was an excellent message for the entire army.

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

He was granted a title of marquis in one battle, which made countless soldiers worship him.

Li Jing looked at the lively military camp and stood on the already decaying Great Wall with a smile, "This is just the beginning."

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

Here, there are seventy miles away from the separation between Yang Lin and Li Siyuan. This time, Li Si'an and Dong Zhang started to accelerate without waiting for Yang Lin's urging.

The speed of ten thousand cavalry advances was so fast that Yang Lin couldn't bear it.

At this time, Yang Lin in turn advised Li Si'an that he had already left the pass and might meet the Hu people at any time. Should he meet the Hu people? Don't want to come to Baishuilu again? At that time, Li Siyuan chased the Hu people all the way out of the pass, and finally encountered the Hu people ambushed in Baishuilu, and was defeated and almost wiped out.

However, the two generals Li Si'an, who had been keeping their spare energy, were abnormal this time and just replied to Yang Lin indifferently, "It is precisely because we have already passed the barrier that we have to be fast. We have to appear in front of the Hu people before they find us."

Li Siyuan suddenly woke up and jumped up from under the tree. What was the noise?

Since dark, although the Hu people have not launched a large-scale attack, they have surrounded the valley and sent small troops to harass them. Moreover, these Hu people are very cunning and cannot relax for a moment when they are harassing, because you don’t know when, when they are true or when they are fake. Even a team of Hu soldiers outside ran to the entrance of the valley to throw a few torches and arrows, but another small unit was quietly climbing the mountain and trying to sneak into the valley.

Under such circumstances, the thousands of Shatu people in the valley could only be mentally prepared. Li Siyuan insisted on guarding the valley entrance, but he was too tired and fell asleep accidentally.

"General, it seems that the Hu people are harassing again." A soldier came over. "Damn Hu people!" In the eyes of this Shatuo soldier, they were not Hu people, they were Tang people long ago. Sometimes, they even felt that they were stronger than Tang people, Hu people specifically refer to the barbarians outside the border.

"Did the Hu people attack?" Li Siyuan's eyes were covered with bloodshot and extremely red. "No. It's not attacking, this movement is wrong."

Li Siyuan suddenly lay on the ground, buckled the sword pot to the ground, and put his ear on it to listen.

He heard the sound of horse hooves, and a lot of them.

His face changed drastically. It was not far from dawn. It was the last darkness before dawn, and it was also the time when a person was most tired and easily asleep. It must be that the Hu people were about to launch a large-scale attack.

"Wake up and wake everyone up. Get ready to fight. The Hu people are about to attack!" Li Siyuan shouted.

At this time, outside the valley, Ironwood Thorn had just woken up from his sleep.

He also heard a large number of horse hooves, and a large number of horses approached.

Tiemu stood up with a thorn, grabbed the wolf teeth and rod and rushed out of the tent. The tent of the Goguryeo tribe in the east was rising into the sky, and there were terrifying calls and shouts everywhere. "Qin army, the Qin army attacked the camp, Gao Tansheng is dead!"

Tiemuzu shouted anxiously: "Prepare a horse for me, hurry!"

But at this time, a cavalry was rushing around in the fire, accompanied by violent explosions from time to time. It was completely unclear how many Qin troops had come, but the power alone was enough to make many small tribe leaders and their warriors who had never seen the world panic.

On the eve of the dark dawn, there were fire everywhere, and panicked tribal soldiers everywhere. They were running around between the camp tents, in the dark night, shouting and terrifying news, "The Qin army is coming." "The Qin army is coming." "The Qin king Li Jing is coming." "Li Jing is coming with a hundred thousand troops to kill him." "We are surrounded by the Qin army." "No, Gui Chi'er is dead." "Temu is stabbed to death!"

......

Tiemustu finally rode on his war horse, but only then heard a group of his Tatar subordinates shouting that Tiemustu was dead while running around naked. They were so angry that they almost vomited blood. They waved the big stick and directly knocked the guy who shouted the loudest, making him hit the brain.

Several panicked soldiers were executed in a row. Tiemuzu finally stopped the panicked situation here, gradually reorganized the troops of the headquarters, and then moved closer to the Gui Chier tribe, who was also the Tatar Alliance. After the two departments gathered, they finally felt relieved.

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

"Collection, collection, gather to this side!"

The chaos gradually stopped, but to the east, a huge fire had already ignited there. The Goguryeo tribe and several small tribes, and several tribal camps of nearly 5,000 people, were completely shrouded in a ball of fire.

Temusai grabbed a Goguryeo warrior who had fled and shouted loudly: "What's going on? Where is Gao Tansheng? Ask him to come and see me!"

"Gao Tansheng has been killed."

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

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

"Then where are they now?" Tiemusai did not see half of the Qin army except for a fire.

At this moment, a violent explosion suddenly sounded at the entrance of the valley to the south, followed by countless sounds of swords and guns and screams.

Tiemutu was shocked. No, the Qin army rushed to Gukou. Their purpose was to rescue Li Siyuan. Perhaps the number of Qin soldiers was not large. When thinking about this, the small tribe who was on duty in Gukou was directly stunned and was defeated and fled.

In the darkness, the sound of horse hooves sounded like a storm, and then a louder roar rushed straight to the clouds.

"Shatuo is not dead!"

"Long live the King of Qin!"

......

With these loud roars, in the faint firelight, Li Siyuan, who was stained with blood, jumped out of the valley with a spear and rushed out with a horse, and took the lead, leading more than 3,000 Shatuo remaining soldiers and bravely rushed out.

"Forge a formation and prepare to face the enemy!"

Tiemu Tsting was shocked by Li Siyuan's hideous and terrifying fierce aura in the fire. He swallowed his saliva and did not dare to lead the troops directly to rush forward. Instead, he took a few steps back unconsciously. In the darkness, Tiemu Tsing who had just been caught off guard did not know how many Qin troops were suddenly killed, but with the other party, he defeated Gao Tansheng and his nearly 5,000 troops. The other party was absolutely very strong. He judged that at least 20,000 to 30,000 cavalry could break the Goguryeo tent in such a short time.

The enemy's situation was not clear, so he did not dare to attack rashly, so he chose to defend.

The Hu cavalry was as if facing a great enemy, gasping for the fierce attack of the Qin army.

Time has passed after a stick of incense.

Time for a cup of tea has passed again.

A quarter of an hour passed again,

The last half an hour passed.

The expected fierce attack did not come. On the contrary, the war gradually faded, and the screams and groans gradually stopped. The entire battlefield became quieter, but even the breath of the Qin army and Shatuo people could not be found.

The Qin army left with Shatuo people. Tiemushu and Gui Chier looked at each other, and their two old faces became increasingly ugly under the torch. The Qin army ran away? Why?

At this moment, a sudden sound of horse hooves broke the strange tranquility and came in a hurry.

"They are here, get ready!"

Tiemushu's heart hopped violently and he shouted loudly.

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

After a while, the sound of horse hooves became closer and closer, and the bows of the Hu warriors were getting more and more full!

Just as the iron-wood thorn raised his hands high and was about to wave it, a flag with high talk appeared in the flames.

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

Then, there was nothing, nothing, and there was nothing in a Qin army.

"What's going on? Gao Tansheng!" Gui Chier shouted. The camp in Goguryeo just now was obviously burned, and the fleeing Goguryeo soldiers also said that Gao Tansheng and the others were dead, but now they suddenly jumped out again, making him feel miserable.

"Don't shoot arrows, I'm not dead yet, but I was raided in the dark and was dispersed for a while. I packed up my troops and came back." Gao Tansheng said it nicely. In fact, after the Qin army rushed into his camp, he fled immediately without any resistance. Not only did he escape by himself, but his subordinates also escaped, and they fled far away. Fortunately, the people who attacked the camp did not pursue him, but set fire for a while, attracted the attention of the Hu people, captured Gukou and saved Li Siyuan and left.

Gao Tansheng hid aside and saw that it was already safe before returning.

"Is the Qin army coming?"

"Well, that's right, it's indeed the Qin army."

“How many of them have?”

"At least 30,000!" Gao Tansheng said.

Tiemutchi stared at him coldly, "How many?"

"It's estimated to be 20,000."

"How many?" Tiemuzu didn't believe there were 30,000, nor did he believe there were 20,000. If there were so many people, how could they miss the opportunity to annihilate them?

"Maybe more than 10,000, it's dark, I can't see clearly." Gao Tansheng said guiltily under the stare of Tiemu Tsui. He exaggerated the number of Qin troops and just wanted to give him some face. After all, five thousand of them were defeated in an instant.

The iron-wood thorn's hand pressed on the scimitar hilt.

"Oh, I remembered it. It seems that it was about five thousand, no, three thousand. It was almost three thousand. All the light cavalry were very elite, red battle robe and black military flag, all wearing half-boobed breastplates, pot helmets, and also equipped with rifles, sabers, crossbows and thunder. The elite cavalry of the Qin army, if they hadn't attacked, we wouldn't have been defeated, and we would have been completely caught off guard."

"Three thousand?"

"Three thousand."

The iron-mut thorn's face immediately turned from white to red and then turned purple. The three thousand Qin troops unknowingly touched their side, and instantly broke the camp of five thousand people. Under the eyes of twenty thousand people, they rescued the three thousand Li Siyuan who was besieged in the valley and left.

"Damn it!"

"Hold!"

Temula and Gui Chier cursed swear words almost at the same time. The two of them looked at each other and saw the anger in each other's eyes after being fooled.

"Chasing!" Temula waved his mace, shouted in great anger, and took the lead in chasing the darkness in the east.
