[Ding dong, Huo Qubing has successfully withdrawn to the north. The battle out of the fortress is over. The inventory begins...
This battle lasted for three months in total, starting from the Qin and Jin 60,000 cavalry leaving Yanmen Pass from the north, and ending with Huo Qubing leading 300 warriors to retreat south to the town of Beiguan. It went through: the Monan Battle, the Longcheng Battle, the Mobei Battle, etc.

In the Monan War, 12,000 enemies were killed, 300,000 herdsmen were massacred (civilians were not included in the total count), and 5,000 were lost;
In the battle of Dragon City, 120,000 enemies were killed and 4,000 were lost;

[Ding dong, there were 54 large and small battles in the ‘Battle of the Fortress’. Only the ‘Battle of Dragon City’ reached the threshold of a battle, so the settlement is based on the scale of the battle.
In the Battle of Longcheng, Huo Qubing and Zhuge Liang led 55,000 cavalry. Zhuge Liang defeated Huchuquan's 150,000 cavalry with the Fire Ox Formation, killing 120,000 enemies and losing 4,000 troops. The loss ratio in this battle was 30:1.
Rating: SSS level, reward 1 gold summoning card.】
[The host currently has a total of summoning cards: 2 gold summoning cards, 2 silver summoning cards, and 1 million population summons;]
[Ding dong, in the battle outside the fortress, although Huo Qubing did not complete the task of "Sealing the Wolf to Xu", he became the first person to go out to fight against the aliens at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. He was awarded the title of "Hero" and was awarded the Five-Dimensional Permanent 1. He experienced life and death several times and survived.
Escape, break the limits of your own martial arts, and your force will always be 1.
Huo Qubing’s current five dimensions: Huo Qubing: Commander 100, Force 103, Intelligence 81, Politics 62, Charisma 99;]
This trip to Saihuo Qubing can be said to be full of rewards. Not only is the five-dimensional permanent 1, but also an additional point of force has been obtained, reaching the level of commanding force with two attributes exceeding 100, and almost reaching the level of three attributes exceeding 100. This is for anyone.
Even a military commander is quite powerful.
Overall, Qin Hao was quite satisfied with the results of this outing. Not only did he gain 1,500 summoning points, but he also got a golden summoning card. The harvest was not much worse than the Battle of Hetao.
In addition, the Chusai army slaughtered a total of 400,000 Yuanmeng herdsmen. Including the soldiers who died in the battles of Hetao and Chusai, Yuanmeng lost more than one million soldiers and civilians this time.
When the Yuan-Meng Empire was founded, it only had a total population of over three million. As a result, it lost one-third of its total population after this war. It can be said that the entire country is on the verge of disintegration. In the future
He has not been able to pose a threat to Qin Hao for more than ten years.
After seeing the rewards given by the system for the first battle and the changes in Huo Qubing's attributes, Qin Hao finally breathed a sigh of relief and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the negotiations with Yuan Meng.
The envoy sent by Yuanmeng this time was Boyan, a famous minister of the Yuan Dynasty. After he came to Jinyang, he kept his attitude very low, without the arrogance and domineeringness he had when Yuanmeng first invaded.
After Boyan knelt down to Qin Hao, he said with a sincere face: "Your Highness, Mr. Qin, my Majesty has shown full sincerity. He even let the Huo Bing tribe trapped in Mobei return south. I hope Mr. Qin can
Show your noble hand and show some sincerity in peace talks."
"Oh, is it so?"
Qin Hao looked at Boyan with a cold face and said indifferently: "What kind of sincerity did Tuo Lei show for peace talks? As far as I know, Huo Bing's troops came back from Mobei by himself? This is not the same as Tuo Lei.
What does it matter?"
"If His Majesty Tuo Lei hadn't ordered Prince Kublai Khan to be transferred back, it would have been impossible for Huo Quji's thousands of remaining soldiers to escape from Mobei."
"Is that so? How did I hear that Huo Bing was still being hunted after Kublai Khan withdrew his troops?"
"Um, this..."
Boyan also had troubles to express, and couldn't help but curse those tribal leaders in his heart for holding back at the critical moment.
A glint flashed in Qin Hao's eyes, and he sneered: "It seems that after this battle, Yuan Meng's main force has been wiped out, and he is no longer able to deter the major tribes. Why don't you let me take over the detonator?"
When Boyan heard this, his expression suddenly changed, and he said hurriedly: "Don't do it, Duke of Qin, absolutely must not do it. All major tribes are loyal to Longcheng. If Duke Qin tries to manage it by force, he will definitely encounter desperate resistance from all the tribes. This will definitely delay the development of Longcheng."
Part of the Qin army's strength is not a good thing for you, Duke Qin."
"resistance?"
Qin Hao showed disdain and said coldly: "The cavalry under my command are not decorations. If they dare to resist, I will kill them until they dare not resist."
Upon hearing these murderous words, Boyan could not help but flash a trace of paleness on his face, and then he smiled bitterly and said: "Mr. Qin, I, Yuanmeng, really come here with sincerity this time. The people of our two countries have been suffering from the war for a long time.
, I beg Qin Gong to consider for the sake of governing the people and not to start a war lightly."
Qin Hao became angry when he heard this: "When Temujin invaded Hetao, why didn't he think about the people? Now he thinks about the people? It's too late.
In the Battle of the Hetao, most of the Hetao was destroyed in the flames of war. You, Yuanmeng, must bear this responsibility.
Go back immediately and tell Tuo Lei that if you don't agree to my terms, you Yuanmeng will follow and perish, and I will personally lead all the cavalry under my command to flatten Longcheng."
With that said, Qin Hao left angrily, leaving behind all the civil and military officials in the room looking at each other, as well as Boyan with a look of despair.
Liu Bowen walked up to Boyan with a look of helplessness and said: "Your Majesty Boyan, you are really not suitable to be a lobbyist. This is the third time that you have made the lord angry. How can an envoy negotiate with people like this?"
"
Boyan showed a wry smile and said: "I don't want to be like this, but Sir, you have also seen Duke Qin's attitude. Duke Qin is not willing to back down at all. With so many excessive conditions, if my Majesty agrees to it, then
What is the difference between Yuanmeng and the subjugated country?"
When Liu Bowen heard this, he became unhappy and said, "Why is it too much? I think it's very reasonable."
"Is it reasonable? Qin Gong said that he would compensate 500,000 war horses. You must know that after the Battle of Hetao, the number of war horses in our country was also greatly consumed. Now the total number of horses in the country is probably less than two million, including young children.
Horses and old horses, and there are not even 300,000 war horses owned by the country, so where can we get 500,000 war horses to compensate your country?"
"Your Majesty, you have said it yourself. There are still two million war horses in the Yuanmeng Kingdom. If the number of horses returned to the country is not enough, then go to the major tribes and herdsmen to get them. If the entire Yuanmeng Kingdom is destroyed,
So what’s the use of keeping these war horses?”
The bitterness on Boyan's face became even more intense. After a few more retorts, he still couldn't say anything to Liu Bowen, so he had to say: "What about the fact that Prince Lian is a hostage? Prince Kublai Khan is the only son of His Majesty Tuo Lei.
The future heir to the empire, but Qin Gong wants him to go to Jinyang as a hostage. Isn’t employment too much?"
"What's the point? Now you are in the most difficult period of Yuan and Meng. As the successor of the country, Kublai Khan has made some sacrifices for the country, which is unreasonable. The people in the country will love him even more when he returns to the country in the future.
.”
"But……"
After arguing with Boyan for another half an hour, Liu Bowen came to Qin Hao's study.
"How is it? Has Boyan given in?" Qin Hao asked.
Liu Bowen shook his head: "I'm afraid Yuanmeng also guessed our truth and falsehood, and knew that it was more likely that our army would not send troops. Therefore, although he was sincere in negotiating this time, he kept bargaining."
"It seems that I haven't beaten these people yet. They don't respect me enough."
A trace of coldness flashed in Qin Hao's eyes, and then he sneered and ordered: "Secretly send an order to Bai Qi, ordering him to massacre all Mongolian prisoners worth 160,000 yuan.
I'm here to see if this can make Tuo Lei and the people in Yuan Meng feel afraid, so that they can obediently send the things over."
Liu Bowen couldn't help but frowned when he heard this, and advised: "My lord, the number of prisoners killed is unknown. Even if Yuan Meng committed a heinous crime, he has surrendered after all. Once my lord gives this order, it may affect your life."
reputation."
"The military adviser is serious. They are just some prisoners of war, and they are foreign prisoners of war who have committed heinous crimes. Why can't I kill them? Hundreds of thousands of people in Hetao have submitted letters of ten thousand people, asking me to kill the prisoners to avenge the dead people. Now I can't do anything.
It’s just to comply with the people’s wishes.”
"But……"
"Okay, no need to persuade me anymore, just do it like this."
Seeing that Qin Hao refused to listen and wanted to put pressure on the prisoners by massacre, Liu Bowen had no choice but to accept the order with a sigh: "No."
