Yan Kingdom, Fenmen City.

The 200,000 Yan troops were stationed here with their backs to Bei Yishui, firmly blocking the 300,000 Zhao Qi coalition troops who were preparing to go north from here.

Spring was already halfway over, but the snow outside the city had only just melted, and the muddy ground was quite difficult to navigate, which may be the reason why the Zhao and Qi coalition forces did not immediately start attacking the city.

The tense atmosphere has been quietly spreading in this city since the day the city was surrounded, after all, the record of the Yan State in the past few years against Zhao Qi and the two countries is not enough to make the Yan soldiers and civilians in the city feel at ease - although there are occasional victories against the Qi State, but when the Yan State faces the Zhao State, it is an out-and-out defeat.

What's more, with the strength of Zhao State now, any country will instinctively feel afraid when facing Zhao's army.

The young Yan army commander Le Jian stood at the head of Fenmen City, quietly watching the two large camps in the southwest and southeast, these two large camps stretched endlessly outside Fenmen City like two giant dragons connected end to end, filling all the sights of Le Jian.

After Lejian rejected the woo from Zhao Guo, both Empress Dowager Yan and Lejian already knew that a big war was inevitable.

As a result, the highest level of mobilization order was immediately issued in Jidu, and the officials from all over the Yan Kingdom acted quickly with the highest efficiency under the death order of Shangfeng, and it only took a little more than a month to successfully recruit and form a force of more than 200,000 troops to enter Fenmen City.

This is already the most powerful military force in the Yan State, and it can be said that it has exhausted all of it, if this battle is lost, then the territory of the Yan State will really be completely left to the Zhao Qi coalition army to gallop vertically.

For this, Le Jian knew it in his heart, and he believed that Pang Xuan and Kuang Liang in the big camp outside the city were also very clear.

It is precisely because of this that the Zhao Qi coalition army made a posture outside this city to decide the victory or defeat in a battle, making it clear that it was to use this siege battle to completely disintegrate the defense force in the Yan Kingdom.

A general of the Yan Kingdom, who looked quite steady, stood beside Le Jian and said somewhat worriedly: "Chang Guojun, the enemy army is fierce, and this battle must be very difficult." ”

Le Jian nodded slightly, and said: "Hardship is inevitable, but the Zhao Qi coalition army will inevitably be condemned by the princes, so they just need to guard here until winter, and the two countries of Zhao and Qi will naturally retreat." ”

When Rakuma said this, his heart was somewhat bitter.

You must know that now that the spring snow is melting, it is the best time for spring plowing and sowing in Yan Kingdom, but a large number of young people gather here, coupled with the reality of war, this year's Yan Kingdom will surely usher in a poor harvest year.

Even if it can be successfully defended, it will be a great weakening of the Yan Kingdom.

Le Jian is actually very clear in his heart, whether the Yan Kingdom can survive from the Zhao Qi coalition army in this battle, in addition to the fact that he must defend this place, there is another very important premise that he must get reinforcements.

If there were no reinforcements, it would actually be quite reluctant to fight against Qi with Yan Guo's own national strength, let alone add a giant Zhao State.

Rakuma sent emissaries to almost all countries, hoping to get reinforcements to delay Zhao's troops, but to be honest, even he didn't know which countries would respond to his request for help.

"In short, do your best to obey the destiny of heaven." Rakuma looked at the two enemy armies that had begun to assemble outside the city, and thought silently in his heart.

The general of the Yan State standing next to Le Jian was not as firm as Le Jian, after all, in his opinion, the Yan State is so weak today and the Zhao State is so strong, in the face of the Zhao State's troops, will there really be reinforcements?

Reinforcements are actually there.

Thousands of miles away from Fenmen City, behind the Helan Mountains on the west bank of the Yellow River, a great battle is unfolding.

The 60,000 Hun cavalry shouted loudly, launching wave after wave of offensive in the sound of majestic horns.

On the opposite side of them was a full 80,000 Yue's cavalry, and under the reflection of Lantian and Baiyun, the Yue's and Xiongnu's rivals once again launched a desperate fight.

Today's Xiongnu Dadanyu is named Dulongqi, who is the evil king of the previous Xiongnu tribes, and successfully ascended to the throne after defeating the Aries King.

I have to say that this Du Longqi Shan Yu did quite well after ascending the throne, and when he was defeated by Li Mu at that time, Du Longqi Shan Yu did not choose to continue to go south, nor did he choose to go west, but took advantage of the civil strife in Donghu to take the opportunity to go east.

After a series of vertical and horizontal crossings on the prairie, Dulongqi Shan Yu incorporated a large number of Donghu tribes, and defeated the 70,000 elite cavalry led by the king of Donghu in a battle, further compressing the power of the Donghu people, and at the same time allowing the Xiongnu to become the ruler of the eastern part of the Monan steppe again.

But this is obviously far from enough for the Huns.

The peoples of the steppes were born to fight and plunder, and now that the predators in the east have been defeated, their gaze naturally shifts to the west.

As the sworn enemies of the Huns, the Yueshi people were entrenched in the vast grasslands from Helan Mountain to Yinshan Mountain, and this area, which was later known as the Hexi Corridor, became the next target of the Huns.

So just after the cold winter passed, Du Longqi Shan Yu suddenly went south from the Xiongnu court to the Hexi Corridor while the Yue people were unprepared, and plundered countless Yue tribes along the way.

After learning the news of the Huns' southward movement, the Yueshi King Veshka led 80,000 elite cavalry to the north and fought to the death with the Huns on the steppe on the west side of Helan Mountain.

The bowstrings kept ringing, countless arrows rained down on the positions of both sides, and the warriors charged valiantly with their sabers, many of them fell on the way of the charge, but many more rushed up the path opened up by their comrades.

The battle lasted for a whole day, and the Yueshi people firmly suppressed the Xiongnu troops with a slight advantage in numbers and combat effectiveness, and it seemed that victory was imminent.

However, at this time, 20,000 Wusun cavalry suddenly appeared on the battlefield under the leadership of the leader Su Mi, and plunged into the flank of the Yue people like a sharp knife.

The Yue's people were in disarray, and after half an hour of fighting, they began to disperse.

The Xiongnu and Wusun coalition took the opportunity to pursue, the whole pursuit lasted for three days and three nights, the blood stained the entire grassland, countless Yueshi elites were either captured by the coalition forces, or were killed by the coalition forces on the spot, and the Yueshi king Veshka led thousands of remnants of the army to escape from defeat.

After this pursuit, the Hun camp welcomed back all the warriors who had returned victoriously, and a grand celebration began.

Under the vast sky, countless bonfires burned brightly, and the soldiers of the coalition army sang and danced beside the fire, and the air was filled with the fragrance of mare's milk wine.

They celebrated the victory to their heart's content, and regarded this victory as a gift from heaven to themselves, and from time to time someone could be seen getting drunk, and then dragging the trembling Yueshi women around them into the camp, and the laughter of the men and the cries of the women came out, adding a lot of wine to all the Huns who heard this scene.

In the royal tent of the Huns, Du Longqi Shan Yu was entertaining the leader of Wusun.

"Come, let's drink this glass of wine together for the sake of our victory!" Du Longqi, who was full of beard, laughed heroically, raised the wine glass in his hand made of the skull of Yue's Helan Hou, and greeted the military beard in front of him.

Sitting at the bottom of Du Longqi, with two pigtails tied behind his head, Jun Su Mi also smiled and raised the white bone wine glass in his hand: "It is the honor of our Wusun tribe to be able to defeat the Yue clan with Shan Yu!" ”

The two of them raised their glasses at the same time and drank the wine in their glasses, then looked at each other and laughed.

Du Longqi squinted his eyes, stared at the military beard in front of him and said with a smile: "The defeat of the Yue clan is now a foregone conclusion, I don't know what the Wusun tribe plans to do next?" ”

Jun Sumi's heart moved slightly, knowing that this was the time to start discussing the division of territory, so he smiled quietly at Du Longqi in front of him: "Wusun and Xiongnu are brothers, so naturally they obey the arrangement of their brother. ”

This is to cede the power to carve up the territory of the Yueshi people to the Huns.

In fact, there is no way to let it go, after all, the current Huns have swelled to the size of almost 100,000 troops after capturing so many Yueshi people, which is far from being comparable to Wusun, who only has 20,000 horses.

Whoever is strong is in charge, this is the highest criterion prevailing on the grassland.

Du Longqi laughed, obviously very satisfied with Jun Sumi's knowledge.

After pouring another glass of wine and drinking, Du Longqi Shan Yu slowly said to Jun Xumi: "Since this is the case, then you and I will be bounded by Yanzhi Mountain, the east of Yanzhi Mountain belongs to me, and the west of Yanzhi Mountain belongs to you, how about it?" ”

"Yanzhi Mountain?" Hearing this, Jun Su was slightly stunned.

If this plan is followed, then the Wusun people will only be able to obtain about one-fifth of the Yueshi land, and they are the most chicken, and most of the fertile grasslands are owned by the Xiongnu.

This is undoubtedly a very unfair distribution scheme.

A hint of anger flashed on Jun Sumi's face, but the leader of Wusun quickly concealed the anger in his heart, and instead showed a smile: "Since Shan Yudu has already been distributed, then we Wusun naturally have no problem." ”

"Good!" Du Longqi laughed and raised his glass again: "Let's toast to the friendship between the Xiongnu and Wusun!" ”

Jun Sumi also raised his wine glass and said with a forced smile: "In the name of the gods, bless the Xiongnu to become the ruler of the entire grassland!" ”

Du Longqi nodded with a smile, and suddenly said: "By the way, Brother Wei will soon lead troops eastward and chase and kill Veshka The task will be handed over to Brother Xian." ”

"Eastward?" Jun Sumi's heart struck slightly, and a surprised expression appeared on his face: "Shan Yu wants to attack Zhao State?" ”

Du Longqi snorted and said, "That's natural, the people of Zhao defeated our Huns a few years ago, and that's the shame of our Huns!" Such a shame can only be washed away with blood! I will lead my men and horses to rest here for half a month, and after half a month, I will start to attack Zhao, so that the people of Zhao will understand the strength of our Xiongnu! ”

Du Longqi's words were resounding, and he was obviously full of great confidence in the victory of this war.
