In the vast prairie, the royal court of the Xiongnu Shan Yu stopped, and there were two places in the north and south, separated by thousands of miles. The one in the south is Longcheng, which is located dozens of miles north of the Hetao area, and the one in the north is the holy land of the Huns, the wolf Juxu Mountain.

In the customary name of the Xiongnu, the grassland in the Hetao area is called the winter pasture, and the grassland in the Langjuxu Mountain is called the summer pasture. The royal court would often stop at these two places due to military operations or changes in the climate.

Since ancient times, the Yellow River has been harmed by profit. It was precisely because the Xiongnu occupied the Hetao as their winter pasture that they had the opportunity to recuperate and grow their strength. Every spring, the Xiongnu left the Hetao and went east along the Great Wall to plunder the Han people, until the upper valley turned north to the summer pasture, that is, the grassland under the Wolf Juxu Mountain, and returned to the same road in autumn to spend the winter in the Hetao, which has become a fixed habit for many years.

The bloodshed of the slaughter was accompanied by the smoke of war, and the iron hooves trodden the route. Because of the convenient conditions of fertile water and grass in the Hetao area, the Huns not only regarded this place as a base for raising a large number of war horses, but also used this place as a springboard for soldiers and horses to gather and march south.

The Hetao region played a great role in the relations between the Han and the Hungarians, not only the Xiongnu people regarded it very important, but many people of insight in the Han Dynasty also recognized the necessity of retaking this area for a long time. It's just that all along, I didn't have the ability to take it back through war.

Later, the Han Dynasty finally recaptured the Hetao, which became a turning point in the war between the Han and the Xiongnu, and paid a huge price. In the original time and space, Yuan Zhao had seen the historical materials in this regard, which recorded very clearly, in order to make the cavalry troops under the command of Wei Qing raid the vicinity of the Hetao in a long-distance roundabout, when today's son ordered the Yanmen Pass guard Li Guang to resist the attack of the main Xiongnu force with military secrets, in order to attract the firepower of the Huns in the middle. He did not hesitate to give up the upper valley and the right Beiping line, luring the main force of the eastern Xiongnu to drive straight in, making the rear of the Xiongnu empty and creating excellent conditions for Wei Qing's surprise attack.

In the Han Dynasty's battle to recapture the Hetao area, a total of nearly 100,000 soldiers and civilians were paid the price of their lives, and immeasurable losses were caused to the northern border.

Under the great historical achievements, what is hidden is the blood and tears of countless people, lives, displacements, and misery ......! When Yuan Zhao thought of this, his heart was always depressed. Since I am at the right time today, I will certainly not allow such a tragedy to happen again. He wants to use the least price to achieve the greatest result!

The flying cavalry sent to report on the actions of his front army had already rushed to Li Guang and Wei Qing's army respectively, and Yuan Zhao asked them to send troops according to the original plan with confidence and boldness. The Eastern Route Army sent by the Xiongnu Shan Yu, that is, the 8,000 cavalry of the Qu Shot King, has long been wiped out, and several tribal kings in the entire southeastern grassland have long since died, and they have fled, and the threat of the first line of Shanggu County has long ceased to exist. What's more, there is also a light car general Gongsun He leading the troops to guard here, which should be foolproof.

Although the commanders of King Yelu and King Zuo Xian were known as 100,000 iron cavalry in total, they met the enemy head-on with 60,000 Yanmen defenders step by step, and the 20,000 Black Eagle Army cavalry led by Wei Qing captured the Hetao and then outflanked them from the back, which would definitely be broken! What's more, when the time comes, there will be the 3,000 Black Eagle Army under his command as a mobile force, and if he wants to break the army and seize the land this time, it should be a situation of steady victory, and there is no big problem.

After telling the three generals and Pan what he wanted to achieve, the three thousand black iron horsemen turned into a sharp arrow that shone with a cold light. "Look northwest, shoot the wolf"! The surging passion and the confidence of victory made them indomitable and began a glorious journey. Iron hooves trampled on the grass, and the fight was startled, when he went, six hundred miles in one day and one night, and attacked Dragon City!

The clouds and dogs in the sky swept over the earth, covering countless dusts. At the same time, the defenders of Yanmen Pass left 5,000 to defend the city, and the remaining 60,000 were all dispatched to resist the troops of King Zuoxian and King Yelu of the Xiongnu respectively. The two armies faced each other, and the most forwards were only three miles apart, and the big battle was about to break out!

A few hundred miles to the west, 20,000 Black Eagle Iron Cavalry swept across the grassland like a black torrent, following the already explored marching route, day and night, driving directly to their target, the Yellow River flowing through the grassland, the land of abundant water and grass.

For the first time in nearly a hundred years, the warriors of the Han family finally went deep into the hinterland of the Xiongnu steppe. The 20,000-strong cavalry of the Black Hawk Army was like an eagle that had finally broken out of its cage, and it spread its wings and flew high into the air, about to catch its prey.

"The grass is withered, the eagle's eye is sick, and the snow is light"! Onward, onward! Just ahead, it will be the battlefield where they will truly make a name for themselves and make a name for themselves!

And at this moment, Dadan Yu Yi Zhixie and the royal court nobles who followed the south this time did not know what kind of embarrassing situation they would face in the near future.

Da Dan Yu was the first to receive a battle report from the Yanmen defenders. After learning the details, he was stunned for a moment at first, and then laughed.

"The emperor of the Han Dynasty finally couldn't help it! The battle of the defenders of Yanmen Pass must have come from the will of this emperor. Ha ha! Since the siege of Mayi a few years ago, I have long expected that this emperor of the Han Dynasty is different from his father and ancestor, and his ambition is very big! ”

The nobles and important ministers under his command were all there, and after listening to the situation report, although the cognition of the emperor of the Han Dynasty in their hearts was different, at this moment, naturally no one came out to say something to increase the prestige of others, and all of them were only praise and compliments.

"Big order is in Gaojian! The emperor of the Han Dynasty was so immeasurable that he dared to command the Han army to fight remotely, this is the way to bring about his own destruction! Just take the opportunity to eliminate, break through the barrier, and go straight to Chang'an! ”

"I knew that I could really fight this time, I would have asked Da Shan Yu Ling to lead the troops to go, what a pity, it's a pity!"

"Fight the Hun cavalry with foot soldiers...... Indeed, the way to death! I hope that Li Guang can be caught this time and never suffer in the future. The only one who can fight against the Huns is General Benfei! ”

"Huh! What can a mere Li Guang do? But it's that Yuan Zhao...... How can the people who deal with him not have heard from him yet? ”

"Humph! Yuanzhao children, it is not enough to worry about it! Could it be that the Eight Thousand Iron Horsemen of the King of Inferiority are vegetarians? What's more, there is a Flying Fire Warrior dispatched, and it is difficult for him to fly without his wings! ”

The mess underneath, between the mess of wine and meat, everyone is talking loudly, in short, the confidence is very strong, and the motivation is amazing!

Yi Zhiyi was smiling, and in his heart, he did not regard this battle with the Han Dynasty as too important. In the previous battles between the Hun cavalry and the Han army, no matter what the scale, they have not lost much. Victory is certain, depending on the size of the results.

Among the loud and noisy king's tents, only one person frowned slightly. The mink fur that has been worn for many years does not feel as comfortable as the green shirt cloth. It's just a pity that he can't change back into the Han family's clothes.

The defenders of Yanmen Pass actually took the initiative to fight? This is a very unusual phenomenon. Moreover, it was the entire 60,000-strong garrison, which had never happened on such a scale before. "When things go wrong, there must be demons"!

It's just that...... Zhang Zhongxing looked at Shan Yuyi's smug expression, looked around at the atmosphere around him again, and swallowed back the doubts that came to his lips. Yi Zhiyi is a person with volatile emotions, and he values face the most, and some words are better to talk to him alone and privately.

Thinking of this, Zhang Zhongxing, who was called the national teacher by Wang Tingzun, also smiled slightly, and complimented everyone with a few words of Da Shan Yu's might. Shan Yu Yizhi's evil expression was very happy, as if he would hear the news of the breakthrough of Yanmen Pass in front of him and enter the Han realm in a big way in the next moment, he raised a full wine cup and drank it with everyone.

In such an atmosphere, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves from far and near, to the outside of the royal tent, only to hear an anxious voice briefly described a few words, and then there were guarded Hun guards with flying horses to report the Hun rangers walked in quickly.

"Newspaper, report a big order to learn! It's not a good thing...... After receiving the news from the eastern part of the grassland, the cavalry team of the Han people drove straight in, and they couldn't stop it at all! The King of the Golden Head was killed in battle, the King of the Mountain escaped, and many more tribal kings had fled without a fight, leading the tribesmen to the north to ......! ”

Everyone in the big tent could hear it clearly, and the noise and chaos were all quiet at once. Everyone stared at each other with big eyes, and then turned their eyes to Da Dan Yu Khan. How so? When did the Han cavalry become so powerful!

"What do you say? Is the message true? If there is a lie, it will not be spared! Yi Zhixie Shan Yu's face also changed, which was a little too unexpected. The Yanmen direction was just about to make great progress, but I didn't expect the Han army that entered from the eastern part of the grassland to be so powerful!

"It's true! The territory of those tribal kings was indeed empty, and they fled without a fight! And...... And...... There is unconfirmed information that says...... Say....... ”

Speaking of this, the Hun ranger who was the first to rush back to report the news had a slight hesitation in his heart, and he peeked at Shan Yu's face, not knowing whether to tell him the surprising news.

Shan Yu Yi Zhixiao glared at him with murderous eyes, and the ranger shuddered, and hurriedly lowered his head, and said with a thump in his heart: "Da Shan Yu, the eight thousand cavalry led by the King of Qu Archery is said to have been wiped out!"

What the?! At this moment, everyone who heard it was surprised. Who is Helan Tu, the king of refraction? He was one of the four kings of the Xiongnu court, and he was the most trusted and powerful person of Shan Yu Khan. Whether it is himself or the tribal warriors under his command, they are all first-class strong generals on the grassland. How is it possible to annihilate the whole army? They've all been killed!

However, their suspicion did not last long, and as the sound of horses' hooves came, the most definite military situation came. It was finally confirmed that Helan Tu, the king of refractive shooting, and his eight thousand iron horsemen were ambushed by Yuan Zhao, and the bones of the corpse that were burned by a fire in Fox Hunting Ridge were gone! Moreover, even the Grand Commander Moha and the Spitfire Warriors who accompanied the army were all dead. Only the one who came to report was the one who had come to report the news, the dejected and half-dead Lihuo, who had finished telling everything he had seen and heard.
