If you look down from a high altitude, the entire battlefield is like a huge vortex centered on Jiexiu City. Batches of elite soldiers and generals lined up from the barracks around, killing Jiexiu, and then failed again and again, retreating. Countless shouts of killing, weapons collision, countless shouts, whine, and gasp, gathered into a rapid current, throwing from all around to the unfathomable center of the vortex, and then swallowed, and disappeared without a trace.

In sharp contrast to this battleground is thirty miles west of Jiexiu City.

There was a scathing military camp there. A total of 20,000 troops were stationed quietly. No matter how fierce the offensive and defensive battle was, they were unmoved at all, just like a hideous giant beast ready to go.

From time to time, flying cavalry were sent to report the battle situation to the west like a flowing water:

"Report that our army launched an attack for the fourth time this day, using 3,700 troops to attack Jiexiu on the east and south sides!"

"Reported that our army used a ladder to fly straight to the city wall. General Liu Qin of Wuya led 300 dead soldiers, wearing heavy armor, holding sharp blades, and breaking into the city to kill the enemy soldiers!"

"Reported that the Jin people had a general who held two iron spears to fight with General Liu Qin. This man was extremely brave. General Liu's offensive was slightly frustrated, but he was injured and he was even more energetic!"

"Reported that Jin general Lu Chang poured hot oil on the flying building and ignited it with rockets. General Liu had no choice but to retreat, and more than 80% of the soldiers died in battle!"

"Reported that the Jin people dug a secret door in the city wall. The general with a halberd led a hundred heroes to protrude from the secret door, swept ten times and made ten decisions, burning more than 30 ladders. Our army was caught off guard, and suffered heavy casualties!"

"Reported that the general with a halberd was fighting around the city. Our army was blocked by a horse and still passed by the camp. There were nine deaths in the battle along the way! The left-wing general Julihu led his personal guards to stop him. He was stabbed to death in just one round, and the rest of the people dispersed!"

"Reported, General Liu Qin, the Wuya, gathered more than a thousand spearmen, surrounded the enemy generals with halberds and halberds. The enemy general shouted and fought with his halberds. In an instant, more than a hundred spears were cut off and countless soldiers were killed! General Liu was injured by his flying halberds and was unable to fight again, so he had to let him go back to the city!"

Military newspapers came one by one, and each time they reported it, there was a sound of gasping in the camp. At this moment, the entire tent was already silent, and the atmosphere was extremely heavy.

"Hahaha! Hahaha! My Xiongnu army has been fighting in the north and south for several years and has been destroyed. Now, can't we do anything to Jiexiu, a small place? Does the wolves in the desert dare to catch sheep but not to fight against beasts?" The person who heard the news laughed furiously, waved his arms angrily and slapped the case, making a loud noise.

Dozens of people in the tent bowed and said, "Da Shanyu calmed down his anger, Da Shanyu forgived his sins!"

The person who was angry and slapped the table was eight feet and four inches tall, with a great figure, dignified appearance and beautiful beard, and was powerful without anger. It was the Great Khan of the Xiongnu, Liu Yuan, the King of Han, Liu Yuan, and Liu Yuanhai.

Liu Yuan was the grandson of the Xiongnu Shanyu in Fuluo during the Later Han Dynasty and the son of Liu Bao, the Left Xian King. Legend has it that Liu Bao's wife Hu Yan, went to Longmen, the Yellow River to pray for her son during the Jiaping period of Cao Wei. Suddenly, she saw a big fish with two horns on her head and danced in the river water where the sacrifice was before leaving. That night, Hu Yan dreamed of the big fish she saw during the day turning into a human being, and held something to Hu Yan and said: This is the essence of the sun, and she gave it to him. In the next thirteen months, Hu Yan really gave birth to a son, and was even more magical when she was born: the natural text of the left palm has a word "yuan", so she named it Liu Yuan.

In the first year of Yongxing, Liu Yuan claimed to be the King of Han and raised an army to rebel against Jin. Since the uprising, he has been invincible in his army to fight south and north, defeating hundreds of thousands of Jin troops in the front and back, and his reputation has shaken the north of the river.

At this moment, Liu Yuan was furious and walked back and forth in the dome. Dozens of generals and officials on both sides of the dome were with him, and half of the dome shivered and sweated like a sludge.

Liu Yuan pushed open the door of the felt tent and looked into the distance. The sunlight shone into the tent, making the few strands of white hair on his temples look very eye-catching. Perhaps it was because the sunlight was too dazzling, Liu Yuan frowned and turned back into the tent. Although he was still energetic, he was already a sixty-two-year-old man after all. The fate of the Huns was dependent on him, and occasionally he felt powerless.

Everyone thought that the Huns and Han Kingdoms dominated Bingzhou from north to south, and were invincible, and threatened Luoyang, as if they were invincible. However, Liu Yuan himself knew very well: when the Huns were in full swing, they occupied a vast land of thousands of miles north to south of the desert, controlling millions of strings. Now the Huns' power is in a mere state of Bingzhou, with household registration less than one-tenth of that year. If it weren't for the remnants of hundreds of years and the efforts of Liu Yuan himself, they would have almost not even ordered the surrounding Zahu tribes.

Although the country's national power declined, it was still orthodox after all. Even though it suffered repeated setbacks, it was still a huge opponent compared to the Huns. For three years, the Huns have attacked from all sides, but once the troops retreated, the Jin army made a comeback and could not take any territory. In the late autumn of last year, Sima Teng finally defeated Sima Teng and took all the Bingzhou. However, before it was heated up, Liu Kun led the surprise troops to sneak cross from Shangdang and recaptured the northern part of Bingzhou in one battle. It was really annoying.

This time, the Huns all launched a large army to seize Taiyuan in the spring, which was actually a helpless move. The East Sea King Sima Yue is now in great power, and the court's military and political affairs are at his hands. He stationed heavy troops in Xuchang, Yecheng, Luoyang and other places, and he has the ambition to stabilize the world. In order to obtain a stable rear before the bloody battle with the imperial army, Liu Yuan tried his best to collect food and fodder, and rushed to the north in the spring to reverse the situation in the northern part of Bingzhou.

According to the best plan, the Hun army should fight quickly with its superior force, and use Hu Yanyan to capture the strategic location Jiexiu all the way, and Qiao Xi and Hu Yanhao each went north. Liu Yuan led the main army to respond and put into combat according to the development of the situation, and defeated the Liu Kun regime in one fell swoop. But who knew that although the number of Jinyang soldiers under Liu Yueshi was small, they were brave and good at fighting to such a level that tens of thousands of troops were blocked by a mere Jiexiu!

"I received a report in the early morning of the day before yesterday that the champion general Qiao Xi was attacked by the Jin army's light cavalry at night and was killed by the enemy general Lu Yao. Today, the Jin people first regarded our army as nothing, and crossed the camp and entered the city; later, the Wuya general Liu Qin was blocked by the nameless general, which made our army defeated!"

Liu Yuan walked back and forth a few times, his anger gradually subsided, and suddenly stopped and sighed: "There are so many heroes among the people of Jin!"

There was silence in the felt tent, and no one dared to answer. Since the Huns started to fight, all the generals have developed the habit of being above the top. This statement is like an insult to the arrogant and arrogant one. But the fact is so, it is irrefutable. The generals looked at each other and showed a look of disappointment.

Liu Yuan pondered again: "This Jin army warrior with a halberd has never heard of it a few days ago. Could it be that he just disguised as my noble descendant of the Xiongnu and mixed into Jiexiu City? Hehe, right at the Deer King, your golden crown and belt have caused a lot of trouble to our army."

The so-called right-right King is Liu Jing's Xiongnu King. A few months ago, when he was beaten by Liu Kun and fled out of Jinyang in a panic, he didn't even have time to take away his beloved golden crown, ornaments and other items. Unexpectedly, he was used by the Jin people to disguise and deceived many camps today.

Liu Jing hurriedly stepped out of the line and bowed, without saying a word, but just kowtowed repeatedly. His forehead hit the ground, making a thud sound. He was one of the sixteen great chiefs of the Huns with the title of king, and he also had the courage to gallop on the battlefield and be invincible. Therefore, when the Han Dynasty was established, he was named the high position of the General of the Destruction of Jin. Although he was defeated by Liu Kun in Jinyang, his reputation was not greatly damaged. However, such a person seemed like a lackey in front of Liu Yuan.

Liu Yuan lowered his head and looked at Liu Jing who was kneeling at his feet, and said suddenly: "Don't lie down, bring three thousand men to support Hu Yanyan, and fight me seriously!"

"Respect!" Liu Jing replied loudly. He bent down and did not dare to look up. He stepped back and left the tent before mobilizing his troops and roaring away.

"He Tuyan!"

"The last general is here!" General He Tuyan, the auxiliary Han general, left the line. He Tuyan was about thirty years old, with sword eyebrows, tiger eyes, ape arms and bee waists, and looked heroic. He was a general who was responsible for the reconnaissance of the sentry detectives. The elite light cavalry under his command had already been dispatched to repay the military information day and night.

"What is the trend of the Jin army?"

He Tuyan replied in response: "Liu Kun, the governor of Bingzhou, has sent troops. He personally led more than 10,000 main forces of the Jin army and rushed south along the west side of Zhaoyuqi. At this moment, he should have passed Pingtao and crossed the Fen River. General Hu Yanhao's troops are about to contact him. The Jin army's vanguard crossed the front of our army and frequently moved in the area from Zi to Zhongyang. At the end, the reconnaissance cavalry of his troops fought with him many times, with a roughly equivalent loss. In addition, in Zhongdu and Jingling, there were more than 1,000 troops of the Jin army confronted the forces led by Shi Le, a Jie man."

"The movement is so fast!" someone said in surprise.

The Jin army was indeed very fast to move south. In just three days, they had already reached Xicheng. Xicheng was only a hundred miles away from Jiexiu, and the cavalry could reach it in half a day. This situation forced Liu Yuan to react.

Liu Yuan turned around and called out, "Mr. Chen, please come and take the regional map."

A middle-aged civil servant with a clear appearance quickly stepped forward, removed the slips on the table table, and then spread a huge map. Seeing that the tent was a little dim, he lit two candlesticks and placed them gently around the table table table.

This civil servant was Chen Yuanda, the Huangmen Minister of the Han Dynasty. He was trusted by the King of Han. Although his official position was not very high, he was in charge of a huge secret spy network and participated in numerous secret matters, which was no match for ordinary court officials. As a dignified Huangmen Minister, he actually did these things that were done by the servants himself. All the generals knew in their hearts that what the Da Shanyu would continue to say must be extraordinary.

After Liu Yuan raised his hand and made a look, the generals stepped forward one after another and surrounded the case.

This is a very detailed Bingzhou map. From the map, it can be seen that the entire Bingzhou is roughly presented as a slightly inclined quadrilateral. Many mountains intersect, and rivers such as Fen River and Zhang River flow between the mountains, connecting multiple basins.

Among them, the areas controlled by the Han Dynasty of the Xiongnu spanned the three counties of Xihe, Pingyang and Hedong. Only the Baili Queshi Valley, which flows through the Fen River, can be accessed between the Taiyuan State. And to the north of the Queshi Valley, there is a vast water surface of Zhaoyuqi. Such a terrain has resulted in almost no room for maneuver in the actions of the Huns, and only a fierce attack along the way was fierce. Therefore, tens of thousands of troops were blocked from Jiexiu City and were in a dilemma.

Liu Yuan stared at the terrain on the map and said calmly: "Everyone, Liu Kun's troops are indeed good at fighting, which is different from Sima Teng. But the changes in the battle situation are still within my expectations. The military strategy says: The soldiers are like water, the water moves away from high and moves downward, the soldiers avoid the solid and attack the void; the water flows according to the ground, and the soldiers win because of the enemy... Liu Yueshi blocked me from Jiexiu's front line with heavy troops, thinking that he had a plan, but he didn't know that this was just a self-defeating!"

Liu Yuan nodded slightly to Chen * Yuanda, then paused the cinnabar pen in his hand to a place on the picture, and the big drop of color suddenly melted on the map. The red color was so strong that it was dripping, like a blood mark.
