That night, Zhang Liao led a light cavalry and quietly left the Wei camp and went south in the name of protecting grain.

In order to achieve the effect of a surprise attack and hide his whereabouts as much as possible, the fewer soldiers and horses he brought in this battle, the better, so Su Zhe only gave Zhang Liao 5,000 fine horses.

Zhang Liao took 5,000 elite soldiers, first went south, and then turned back halfway to the west, heading straight to Yinshan.

……

Two days later, Tuoba Li Hu came to Wei Ying again.

This time, he not only brought Tuoba Liwei's table, but also brought 200,000 sheep as a gift to show his sincerity.

Su Zhe stood on the arrow tower, looking at the vast number of cattle and sheep, which were continuously driven into the camp, and a sarcastic sneer rose at the corner of his mouth.

In exchange for his surrender, Tuoba Liwei did not hesitate to sacrifice 200,000 sheep, which seems to have really made a bloody investment.

It's a pity that Tuoba Liwei doesn't know Su Zhe well enough, if he knew Su Zhe's determination to destroy Xianbei, he would never be so naïve.

On the same day, Su Zhe ordered to kill 10,000 sheep first to reward the soldiers who followed him on the expedition.

The whole camp is boiling.

At nightfall, the whole camp was filled with the thick smell of meat, and the 200,000 soldiers were divided into 10,000 sheep, an average of 20 people, enough for everyone to eat and drink.

With meat to eat and wine to drink, these soldiers who have survived the bloody war have doubled their spirits and become more and more frenzied, and they are naturally more in awe and gratitude to Su Zhe, the son of heaven.

For three days in a row, Su Zhe slaughtered sheep and cattle, rewarding the soldiers to his heart's content, and the entire Wei camp was carnival every day during the New Year.

As an envoy, Tuoba Li Hu had to stay in the camp, accompanying Su Zhe to carnival, laughing with his mouth, but dripping blood in his heart.

You must know that the meat eaten by the Wei army was saved from between the teeth of their Xianbei people, and it was enjoyed by their enemies in this way, so it is no wonder that Tuoba Li Hu can not feel uncomfortable in his heart.

It's a pity that as a weak person, he can only knock out his teeth, swallow blood in his stomach, force a smile, and dare not show anything.

It's a day, and it's another carnival.

In the imperial tent, Tuoba Li Hu saw Su Zhe's happiness, and took advantage of the situation to say, "Your Majesty is still satisfied with our sincerity?" ”

"Satisfied, I'm satisfied!" Su Zhe laughed, "You go back and tell Tuoba Liwei to take care of the grassland for me, don't do those thoughts that shouldn't be there, pay tribute on time every year, prepare enough cattle and sheep to send to Luoyang to me, and I will ensure that he will continue to sit in his position as a khan." ”

"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty."

Tuoba Li Hu was busy thanking Dade, slapped his ass wildly, and then asked cautiously: "But I don't know when Your Majesty plans to be a teacher?" ”

Su Zhe chewed a bite of mutton and said with a smile: "Although the soldiers are full of food and strength, it won't take two or three days for me to return to the south." ”

Tuoba Li Hu got Su Zhe's promise, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and quietly glanced at Su Zhe's eyes, but a trace of imperceptible cold hatred flashed.

"Su Zhe, today you have eaten so much meat from our Da Xianbei, and we will make a comeback tomorrow and herd horses south, and we will make you pay ten times the repayment!"

……

Northwest of Eagle City, south edge of Yin Mountain.

On the rugged path, the 5,000 Wei cavalry led by Zhang Liao were enduring hunger and thirst and marching all the way.

In order to avoid being discovered by the scouts of the Xianbei people, Zhang Liao walked a long way to the west, and then went north to reach the Yinshan Mountain Range.

Then, his iron horse followed the southern edge of Yinshan Mountain, all the way to the Yinshan Pass to the east.

In this way, most of the Wei army's journey was on mountain roads, and the Xianbei scouts would never find out.

Now that the autumn harvest has passed, the time is close to early winter, and the weather in the grassland is colder than that in the Central Plains.

The iron rider galloped wildly, and the wind was even more cold, blowing head-on like a knife.

Zhang Liao and his soldiers were fearless, tightened their clothes and armor, and ran wild against the cold wind.

The army marched day and night, resting for only an hour at a time, munching on some jerky, dozing off in clothes, and then continuing on its way.

The march was difficult all the way, and five or six hundred people were left behind one after another, but Zhang Liao never stopped moving forward.

Before I knew it, it was five days later.

When the first rays of morning light rose and shone on Zhang Liao's tired face, he couldn't help but smile.

There was a vast grassland ahead, and he finally finished this mountain road.

Looking far ahead, not far ahead, an open mountain pass appeared impressively beyond Lixu.

An avenue stretches out from the mountain pass, all the way south, leading to the direction of Eagle City, on the road, you can vaguely see Xianbei herdsmen and cavalry coming and going from the south to the north.

The Yinshan Pass has finally arrived!

The Wei cavalry, which was less than 5,000, was so excited that they roared in a low voice, and the rolling killing machine swept away the fatigue of the past few days, and they couldn't wait to kill it.

Zhang Liao did not rush to attack, but personally sneaked close to the mountain pass to observe the deployment situation.

There were no Xianbei troops at the mountain pass, only less than a thousand Xianbei troops were stationed, not even a decent camp, but hundreds of tents were set up in the wilderness next to the mountain pass.

The enemy army is empty, and it is a good time to take advantage of the opportunity to raid.

Zhang Liao returned to the woods, raised his sword, and shouted heroically: "Brothers, there is the Yinshan Pass in front, the enemy army is defenseless, our opportunity for meritorious service is in front of us, what are you waiting for, rush out with me and take the mountain pass!" ”

Zhang Liao took the lead and galloped out on horseback.

"Kill—"

"Kill—"

The five thousand Wei cavalry, like a fierce beast out of the cage, roared wildly, rode their horses out of the woods, and swept up towards the Yinshan Mountain Pass with overwhelming momentum.

In the blink of an eye, the iron cavalry arrived like a tide.

The Xianbei people in Yinshan Pass immediately became a pot of porridge.

"Look, is that the cavalry of the Wei Army?"

"Didn't the Wei army confront our Khan in Eagle City, how could it appear in the Yinshan Pass?"

"What should we do, we have this little bit of soldiers and horses, how can we stop it!"

"Go and ask the Khan for help."

"It's too late, run!"

Screams, cries, suddenly resounded through the valley.

More than 1,000 Xianbei soldiers hurriedly mounted their horses and tried to make a final resistance.

The panicked herdsmen drove their cattle and sheep and fled in panic.

Late.

Zhang Liao took the lead in crashing into the enemy group, regardless of whether you were an ordinary herdsman or a Xianbei cavalryman, they were all killed, and no life was spared.

Immediately afterwards, the follow-up army of 5,000 iron cavalry collided like a tide, drowning the 1,000 enemy cavalry in a blink of an eye.

The blade slashed, and countless Xianbei people were beheaded, blood stained the mountain pass red, and the screams shook the heavens and the earth.

In the blink of an eye, a thousand enemy horsemen were killed, and most of the remaining less than 100 people either fled to the mountain pass to Mobei, or went south to Eagle City to join Tuoba Liwei.

At noon, Zhang Liao had immediately crossed his sword, standing in the middle of the blood-stained mountain pass, admiring the blood-stained battlefield.

Behind him, an imperial flag with the word "Wei" was rising.

Yinshan Pass has fallen!
