Cai Yan was lying on the ground, her face was burning with pain, she felt wronged and frightened. She didn't know what mistake she had made to make her husband so angry.//High-speed update//
Hearing Liu Bao say that he was defeated by Yan Liang, Cai Yan's delicate body trembled, ignoring the pain on his face, and struggled to get up from the ground.
"Da Shanyu, what's going on?" Cai Yan endured the pain in his face and asked in a trembling voice.
Liu Bao picked up the wine on the table, drank it all in one breath, and slammed the wine jar to the ground with a bang.
"I led the army to kill. I originally wanted to kill the Yan thief by surprise. Unexpectedly, the Yan thief actually laid an ambush and killed me by surprise. Please tell me, this is not your bad idea.
Miscalculation, what else could it be.”
Liu Bao smelled of alcohol and angrily told Cai Yan the story of his defeat.
"This, how is this possible?" Cai Yan's face changed with shock, and his face was filled with disbelief, as if he couldn't believe that Yan Liang could see through such a subtle plan.
Seeing that she didn't believe it, Liu Bao said bitterly: "I have already returned to the army, what else is impossible? You have really hurt me."
Liu Bao had been slapped and scolded, and his anger seemed to have subsided a bit, and his tone towards Cai Yan was not so serious.
Cai Yan could only suppress his fear and said with shame: "I never expected that the Yan thief could be so cunning and able to see through this flawless plan. So what should we do now?"
"What should we do? Huh, the Yan thieves are coming to kill Fenyin. Of course, this Shanyu can only lead his troops to cross the Fen River north and go to Pishi City to avoid his troops first." Liu Bao replied angrily.
"But, I, the third generation Chanyu of the Xiongnu, have been running Fenyin for many years, should I just abandon it to the Yan thieves?" Cai Yan asked in surprise.
The Huns were originally a nomadic people. They lived on grass and had no city. When the Han Dynasty allowed the Southern Huns to surrender, they actually did not give them Fenyin City, but robbed it themselves.
After Yu Fuluo captured Fenyin City, he moved his royal court to this city and built the city carefully. A fixed Huns territory with Fenyin City as the center was formed.
For more than ten years, Fenyin City has become a sacred symbol in the eyes of the Huns. How could Liu Bao have made such a move unless it was a last resort?
"Do you think this Chanyu wants to abandon Fenyin? Yan Liang's army of 70,000 to 80,000 men is rushing towards here. If we don't abandon Fenyin, our five Xiongnu tribes will be trapped and die in Fenyin."
The Yin City is in trouble."
After hearing Liu Bao's words, Cai Yan's expression darkened and he did not dare to say anything more. He quickly packed up his belongings and prepared to follow Liu Bao to cross the Fen River north.
When Liu Bao was collecting the gold and silver treasures of the royal court, he ordered his younger brother Liu Qubei to lead his troops and go to the ferry to prepare the ships first.
Liu Qubei left as ordered. He left less than an hour before he came back in panic.
"Da Chanyu, something serious has happened. The Chu army, the Chu army has attacked the ferry!" Liu Qubei shouted in horror.
"What!" Liu Bao was shocked.
Beside Cai Yan, the clothes he was holding also fell from his hands, and his face was also shocked.
Liu Bao never expected that Yan Liang not only wanted to thwart his surprise attack plan, but also planned to wipe out all five of his Southern Huns tribes in one go.
Yan Liang had long expected that after Liu Bao's defeat, he would lead five Xiongnu tribes to cross the Fen River north and flee to Pishi City for refuge.
Moreover, the Huns' nomadic nature is still there, and they really cannot withstand Yan Liang's attack. They are likely to flee north and escape outside the fortress. Once the time is right, they will disperse and reunite, and go south again to the dangerous Hedong.
Naturally, Yan Liang would not let Liu Bao and his men become an inexhaustible hidden danger, so he had already set a goal for this battle to catch all these barbarians.
Based on this consideration, when Yan Liang heard about Xi and set up an ambush, he ordered Wen Chou to lead five thousand elite light cavalry to take a detour to the north of Fenyin and seize the Fenshui ferry first.
Once Wen Chou captured the ferry, it would be like locking up Liu Bao's northern crossing, and the five Xiongnu tribes would be blocked south of the Fen River, with nowhere to escape, waiting for Yan Liang to lead his army to harvest them.
"Damn it, this thief Yan Liang is so vicious. He is going to destroy all five of my Xiongnu tribes!" Liu Bao cursed in horror.
Destroy all five Xiongnu tribes!
Cai Yan was shocked in his heart, and a feeling of incomparable regret suddenly flooded his heart.
At this moment, she felt extremely regretful. She should not have been eager to return home and agreed to Liu Bei's request. As a result, her husband and the 70,000 to 80,000 men, women, and children of the Xiongnu were in danger of being exterminated.
Cai Yan was ashamed and frightened, but fearing that he would offend Liu Bao and get slapped again, he lowered his head and did not dare to say a word.
But Liu Qubei was surprised and said: "Chanyu, what should we do now?"
"What should we do?" Liu Bao gritted his teeth and said, "Of course we must gather all our troops and attack the ferry. We must take the ferry back to me."
The Huns were a nation on horseback, and any man who could hold a weapon could serve as a soldier. Therefore, after two failed battles, they lost nearly 50,000 warriors, but among the remaining 780,000 Huns, at least
We can also gather 15,000 to 6,000 troops and horses.
Liu Bao just wanted to rely on this last fighting man to recapture Dutou and lead his tribe to escape from the predicament of being destroyed.
But just when Liu Bao was about to gather his troops and attack with all his strength, a scout rushed in and exclaimed: "Great Chanyu, something terrible has happened. Chu's pursuers have arrived and they have already reached Fen."
Ten miles south of Yin City."
These words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Liu Bao so hard that he was stunned and almost unable to stand.
"The Yan thief's pursuers are coming so fast!" Liu Bao was so shocked that he was speechless.
"Da Chanyu, what should we do now?" Liu Qubei asked in horror.
Liu Bao wiped the sweat from his forehead, suppressed the panic in his heart, and paced in the tent, anxiously thinking about countermeasures.
After thinking hard for a long time, Liu Bao sighed and said helplessly: "That's it, order all five troops and civilians to withdraw into Fenyin City and hold on to the city."
Yan Liang's pursuers from the south of the city have arrived. If he were to attack Dutou at this time, Liu Bao would be faced with the danger of being attacked from both sides and his entire army would be annihilated.
In desperation, it became Liu Bao's only choice to retreat to Fenyin and hold on before making next plans.
Liu Qubei had no choice but to rush to deliver the order.
After giving the order, Liu Bao slumped down on the wolfskin seat as if he was exhausted.
Cai Yan carefully knelt down and sat aside, stretching out his arms, wanting to rub Liu Bao's shoulders to calm him down.
"Get away!" Liu Bao cursed and pushed Cai Yan aside mercilessly.
Cai Yan was filled with grievances, but did not dare to show any dissatisfaction, so he had to retreat in fear.
…
South of Fenyin, Zhang Liao was leading a thousand light cavalry, galloping on the road leading to Fenyin.
The tails of his thousands of light cavalry were tied with branches, and they galloped up, kicking up dust all over the sky. From a distance, they looked like thousands of troops galloping towards them, and the momentum was extremely huge.
This was exactly the strategy Yan Liang told Zhang Liao, ordering him to arrive first with his light cavalry. In this way, he created the illusion that a large army was pursuing them, forcing the Huns to panic and give up their plan to seize the ferry and retreat to Fenyin City.
Yan Liang's little tricks easily deceived Liu Bao.
When Zhang Liao led his light cavalry into the vicinity of Fenyin, the outside of the city was already a mess, leaving thousands of empty tents. The five frightened Xiongnu tribes all retreated into Fenyin City.
Zhang Liao then sent someone to report to Yan Liang, while he continued to ride around Fenyin City, continuing to perform the illusion of great pressure.
Half a day later, Yan Liang finally led an army of 70,000 to 80,000 men and rushed to Fenyin City.
When the army arrived, Yan Liang quickly ordered the troops to set up camps on all sides of Fenyin. Before dusk, Fenyin City was completely surrounded.
After the siege was completed, Yan Liang led his troops to the north gate of Fenyin to personally observe the enemy's defense.
The mighty army arrived at the front line of Fenyin North City. After hearing the news, Liu Bao had already led 5,000 Xiongnu soldiers and stationed them at the top of the city, panicking and preparing to face the Chu army's fierce attack.
However, Yan Liang did not attack the city. He only sneered and said: "Send an order to Zhang Wenyuan and order him to lead his light cavalry through the city and give Liu Bao a hard slap on the face."
After the order was passed, Zhang Liao quickly led his army out. With his cavalry of a thousand war horses with branches tied to their tails, they passed through the north city gate in a majestic manner.
On the top of the city, when Liu Bao saw this situation, he suddenly woke up.
He finally understood why the Chu army, which was dominated by infantry, was chasing so fast. It turned out that the momentum of the approaching army was just an illusion created by a thousand Qingqi battalion.
But that illusion deceived Liu Bao into making a wrong judgment, giving up taking back the ferry, and thus losing the opportunity to lead his troops to evacuate to the north bank.
Liu Bao was once again fooled by Yan Liang's plan.
Snap!
Liu Bao was so ashamed and angry that he punched the female wall with his fist, feeling full of anger but nowhere to vent it.
"Chanyu, we have fallen into a trap!" Liu Qubei shouted in shock.
"Shut up!" The angry Liu Bao scolded his brother for the first time in front of all the Huns soldiers.
Liu Qubei's expression changed, and a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes, but he did not dare to express it in any way, so he had to close his mouth gloomily.
Yan Liang, who was outside the city, had played tricks on the Huns and could clearly see the situation in the enemy city, so he sneered and said: "The whole army retreats temporarily. Let the soldiers rest for a night. After they have eaten and drank enough tomorrow, I will give you a hard blow."
Kill the Huns and the Huns."
"Kill the wild dog"
"Kill the wild dog"
The generals on the left and right waved their swords and guns, their blood was high, and they proclaimed their fighting spirit.
The sound of thousands of people drinking together shook the heaven and earth, and even the city of Fenyin seemed to be trembling faintly.
The already frightened Xiongnu soldiers in the city were frightened by the Chu army's huge momentum, and all of them had a look of horror on their faces, and the hand holding the sword began to tremble.
"Yan thief, I will never die at the hands of a thief like you, the Great Chanyu of the Huns, never." Liu Bao gritted his teeth with hatred and kept hitting the female wall with his fists to promote his ambition to his subordinates.
Determination and fearlessness.
It's a pity that fear is still spreading crazily among the Huns like a plague.
The whole city is shrouded in a cloud of fear. (To be continued...
