Chapter 173
On February 24th, the Xiongnu Royal Court won 60,000 troops at Yanmen Pass, capturing and killing Bu Dugen's 30,000 troops. The Wangting army also surrounded Bu Dugen and his only 15,000 troops!
Bu Dugen was also forced to seek help from Taiyuan.
At that time, the envoy who helped Luo Han was in Taiyuan, but at this time, where were there troops in Taiyuan to rescue Yanmen and Dai County?
Fu Luohan's envoy knew that the current situation was very dangerous, so he returned to Dai County and suggested that Fu Luohan lead his army to rescue Bu Dugen, then save his strength and withdraw back to Taiyuan to defend, waiting for Fu Luo's return to Dasheng and then recover the lost territory!
This time, Wang Ting's sudden attack really caught them off guard. It was obvious that Wuhuan chose to support Wang Ting at this time, and he was so angry that he helped Luo Han curse Wang Ting on the back of the horse.
After cursing, Fu Luohan had no choice but to take his subordinates' advice, give up Dai County, and take 30,000 remaining troops to Yanmen to rescue Bu Dugen's 15,000 troops!
When Wang Ting conquered Dai County, Ke Bineng was very happy and was about to hold a celebration banquet, but Wang Ting's people suddenly attacked and captured all the Nengchen Di, Ke Bineng and others alive, and took Wuwan in one fell swoop!
Ke Bi was not sure why, and the capable minister Di was so angry that he vomited blood and called himself to lead the wolf into the house.
Later, Ke Bineng and Nengchen Di realized that it turned out that Xubu had a serious bone disease. The old princes in the royal court were afraid that these people would cause the grassland to split, so they wanted to catch them all in one go!
Kebineng and Nengchen Di were in the northern part of Bingzhou, and were considered as princes, but they were all killed and their heads were sent to the royal court. The old princes told Guo Jing to ask Guo Jing to go back to report to Lu Lang, and to ensure that their troops would withdraw from Dai County and Yanmen after Lu Lang returned the people and prisoners of the Huns!
Although Yanmen has not been completely captured, the royal army has surrounded Bu Dugen, and it is only a matter of time before victory!
Seeing this, everyone may be depressed. Why are the soldiers and horses of the Xiongnu royal court so powerful that they can defeat Bu Dugen and Fu Luohan so quickly?
In fact, Wang Ting's troops were not powerful, but Bu Dugen and Fu Luohan were too weak. In addition, Ke Bineng and Wuwan colluded, causing chaos. Only then will Wang Ting succeed in a great victory!
After Dai County was lost, Liu Bao in Taiyuan City could no longer sit still, so he had to bite the bullet and send someone to ask Yu Fuluo for instructions.
Liu Bao sent out a team of elite cavalry, with about thirty people. They left the city and came southeast. After walking fifty miles, they happened to meet a team of Huns on the way. They were under the banner of "Zhishi Zhuhou Shanyu" (the full name of Yufuluo's Khan). The thirty people were overjoyed when they saw it and quickly stepped forward to ask the person who came. Unexpectedly, the man spoke the language of the Han people!
Yes, they met Xu Huang's men. With Xu Huang's big axe, the thirty people were surrounded. Xu Huang did not hesitate and took them all down, and then asked them about their purpose.
These Huns had the backbone and refused to reveal their purpose of leaving the city.
In order to avoid the trouble, Xu Huang ordered them to be killed, and then searched them for help from Liu Bao to Yu Fuluo.
After listening to the rewards from those who understood the Huns' writings, Xu Huang was overjoyed and said, "Dai County was destroyed, and Yu Fuluo's two main supporters are unable to protect themselves now. This is a good opportunity for God! Now Jinyang has become an empty city. Where is Luo Yuer? Let him come out."
Hearing Xu Huang's name, the soldier who called Luo Yuer quickly stepped forward and responded: "My subordinates are here!"
Xu Huang said, "You know how to speak the Huns, so follow me. When you arrive at the city of Jinyang, do you know what to do?"
Luo Yuer nodded, then Xu Huang laughed, and ordered: "It's getting late now. Let's hide in the mountains and rest first, and then go to the city tomorrow morning!"
After saying that, Xu Huang led all the people into the mountains and rested on the spot.
On the other hand, Yu Fuluo's army, who had been harassed by Zhou Cang for a day on the mountain road, finally finished the mountain road and then came to the open space in front of Nanjiao Mountain.
Yu Fuluo and Huchuquan, including all the Huns, were a little embarrassed, but Yu Fuluo was still optimistic.
The Han people were treacherous, destroying the roads, and setting up ambush at the source. Fortunately, the army was coming, but... many crossbows and catapults were broken up by huge rocks and rolling wood, and they had to be repaired!
So Yu Fuluo had to order a camp twenty miles in front of Nanjiao Mountain, and then send someone to repair the bed crossbow and catapult cart.
At this time, it was already February 26th, and it was nine days since Yu Fuluo's men left Taiyuan!
During the Nine Days, Yu Fuluo and Hu Chuquan didn't care about their sensitive and fatal numbers. When the quartermaster came to report that their food could only last for three days, Yu Fuluo suddenly realized that they had been delaying such a long time along the way!
Yu Fuluo quickly sent people to Taiyuan to urge grain, and then deployed people to prevent the Han army from attacking the camp at night.
Yu Fuluo was thinking too much. At this time, Lu Lang was watching the Huns jokes on the mountain, and he had no intention of sneak attacks!
But Lu Lang was not completely idle either. Lu Lang knew... Although the Huns seemed to be forced to do so now, their food and grass were in a hurry and their morale was not strong! But Lu Lang could not relax his vigilance, because the more difficult the enemy's situation was, the more likely he would be to burn his boats.
As the saying goes, if you are anxious, you will jump over the wall, let alone the 50,000 bloody Hun men?
If they repaired the crossbow and catapult cart in the past two days and had not received food and grass support the day after tomorrow, Lu Lang thought that Yu Fulu would definitely go all out and attack Shuilaoguan and Nanjiaoshan crazily!
Therefore, there will be a battle between Shuilaoguan and Nanjiaoshan sooner or later, and whether this battle can be defended is the most important part of the entire Bingzhou battlefield!
Once completed, Lu Lang's plan will be realized and he will win a great victory. He will recover the three northern counties of Bingzhou in one fell swoop and become the real governor of Bingzhou. Unlike now, it is just a false position awarded by the court!
Moreover, with Taiyuan, Yanmen, Dai County, and Luliang Mountain as its foundation, Lu Lang's strength... can also develop extremely rapidly and become a real prince!
Thinking of this, Lu Lang's eyes became firmer. He found Guo Jia and said to him: "Fengxiao, there will be a fierce battle between Shuilaoguan and Nanjiaoshan sooner or later, then..."
Guo Jia knew what Lu Lang wanted to say, so he looked at Lu Lang and said, "Lord, but I'm worried that the Huns will burn their boats and fight back?"
Lu Lang nodded, and Guo Jia continued, "Since that's the case, in order not to let the Huns turn against each other, please give me a command!"
"What order?" Lu Lang asked.
Guo Jia smiled slightly and said, "Send soldiers to the outside of the Hun camp tomorrow and shout: Surrenderers, don't kill them! And... announce our agreement to form an alliance with the Hun royal court!"
Chapter completed!
