On the grassland northeast of Xihai City, more than 20,000 soldiers and horses led by the Zhenbei Army and Wei Tuoba Xu were fighting, and the battle of tens of thousands of people shook the sky until dark.

The grass was full of soldiers who had died in battle, and many war horses and Wei cavalry had their bodies cut off, and these soldiers and horses suffered a huge impact before they died, and the grass was deeply sunk into it.

These dead sergeants dyed the meadow a blood-red color, and the smell of blood could be smelled for ten miles, and as the sky grew dark, the wild wolves of the steppe could already smell blood.

Xu Sheng sat on the grass in a daze, his eyes were blank, the armor on his body and face were full of blood, the Mo knife in his hand was already missing a corner, and the tiger's mouth holding the handle of the knife in his right hand was cracked, and a lot of blood still oozed after being bandaged.

In the face of the attack of the Wei army, the Modao battalion did not retreat at all, and the six square formations stubbornly withstood the assault of the Wei army, Xu Sheng didn't know how many war horses he had cut down, and his hands were still trembling from exhaustion.

Xu Sheng looked at the brothers on the grass who were born and died with him on weekdays, and now they couldn't sleep for a long time, and their hearts were like knives, and many of them were quickly impacted by the Wei army and were cut off by long knives.

"The general will order to take the wounded soldiers down to take care of them, collect the war horses, and send the fallen Zhenbei Army brothers back to the West Sea." Li Yan stood on the battlefield and ordered the soldiers in front of him.

"General Qiyu, according to the scout's report, the Wei army Tuoba Xu led the remnants back to the camp, and now the Wei army has suffered a lot of casualties, do you want it tonight~" Lei Ming said with a fist in his eyes.

"Forget it, the Wei army must be prepared tonight, and the northern army of our town will not win a complete victory in this battle, the Modao battalion has lost nearly half, and the Iron Hammer General has suffered a lot of casualties, this time we have underestimated the enemy." Li Yan waved his hand and said with a sigh.

"yes. These Wei army's combat strength is not inferior to that of the Hun thieves of the year, their military discipline is strict, and they are good at cooperating, which is by no means comparable to the Hun thieves. This time, the Wei army was able to be repelled thanks to the unstable morale of the Wei army killed by the Modao battalion under Xu Sheng, otherwise it would be unpredictable. Lei Ming nodded deeply, the combat power of the Wei army should not be underestimated.

Just as Li Yan and Lei Ming were talking, Iron Hammer stepped forward with an unwilling face, clasped his fists and said: "General Qiyu, in this battle, our Zhenbei Army killed 3,753 people, and more than 2,000 people were injured. There were more than 7,000 corpses on the battlefield of the Wei army, and many of their corpses were scattered all over the place, and it was difficult to tell the exact number. ”

"Good. General Hammer has worked hard, and he will rest well tonight, and Tuoba Xu will definitely not give up early tomorrow morning. Li Yan stepped forward and patted the hammer on the shoulder and said.

"General, don't worry, these brothers under me will drive the Wei army out of the West Sea even if they die, and if Tuoba Xu dares to come again tomorrow, I will not be afraid of him." Hammer said fiercely.

After Li Yan watched the hammer leave, he looked at the north and fell into deep thought, and Lei Ming saw that Li Yan was motionless and did not step forward to disturb.

Suddenly, Wei Liang hurriedly rode a fast horse to Li Yan's side, followed by a sergeant, Wei Liang quickly dismounted and said, "General Qiqi, General Zhang Jing has a letter." ”

Li Yan took the letter from Wei Liang and glanced at it hurriedly under the moonlight. glanced back at Wei Liang and said in a deep voice, "When was it delivered?" ”

"General Qiyu, this is just sent by the sergeant of the Xijun battalion, and the last general has already brought the messenger Yang Wu." Wei Liang pointed to a sergeant in the armor of the Xiliang Army behind him and said.

"Little Yang Wu has seen General Li."

"Don't be polite, get up and talk back. General Zhang said that there are now more than 30,000 Hun thieves in Wuwei, what are the recent trends? ”

"General Qiyu, there has been no movement since the Hun thieves increased their troops and Wuwei, but recently there are many Hun scouts in Panhe, and General Zhang ordered the whole army to guard the Xijun Pass to strictly prevent the invasion of the Hun thieves." Yang Wu knelt on the ground and said.

"Hmm. Later, Ben will write a letter, and you will bring it back to General Zhang. Li Yan nodded and said.

"Yes."

Under the Yin Mountain.

This was originally a perennial grazing place for the Rouran people, but now it has been occupied by the Wei army, and the Rouran people in the entire Monan region have been killed by the Wei army, and it is difficult to have people within a radius of 100 miles.

The camp of the Wei army is built on the mountain, which is located in the north of Helan Mountain, the south of Yinshan Mountain, only a few hundred miles away from the West Sea, and the camp stretches through the valley, which is the army of the Wei army's northern expedition to Rouran.

The entire camp layout is well versed in the art of war, if it is not several times the siege of the Wei army's soldiers and horses, the Wei army camp here can be regarded as impregnable.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, the guards outside the tent were silent, and they didn't even dare to breathe. As soon as the general Sun Song returned to the camp, he heard that the deputy general Tuoba Xu had led the army to the west privately, and now he had left the camp for five days.

Changsun Song's anger can be imagined, at this moment, the sergeants and generals are being convened to deliberate, and the voice of Changsun Song is heard from time to time in the big tent.

On the handsome platform, the eldest grandson Song stood with his hands in his hands, dressed in a purple robe, and the eldest grandson Song, who was nearly sixty years old, was holding a white beard, and a set of golden armor on the side of the handsome platform was shining. At this moment, the eldest grandson Song was furious, and there was a person kneeling in the big tent, this person was Liu Shenzhi, the long history, and the beads of sweat on his forehead fell down.

"Lord Liu, why didn't you, as a long history, dissuade the general of Zhengxi, and it is a capital crime to transfer troops without the orders of the generals, don't you know?"

"General, the general is guilty, please punish the general." Liu Shenzhi knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"General, Lord Liu has repeatedly advised General Zhengxi not to send troops without authorization, but General Zhengxi did not care and insisted on taking Xihai. Please forgive Lord Liu. Several generals in the tent saw that Sun Song became more and more angry, and pleaded one after another.

"Bastard, Xihai is hundreds of miles away from the border, there is the northern gateway of Xiliang, and it is guarded by the most elite Zhenbei Army of the Xiliang Army, how can it be so easy to take? Over the years, my Great Wei has been surrounded by enemies, and it is not easy to expel the Rouran people from Monan and relieve my worries about the northern frontier of Great Wei, but now I want to attack Xiliang, which is really annoying to me. Eldest Sun Song rebuked angrily.

"The general is angry, it is said that there are less than 20,000 Xiliang troops guarding Xihai now, and the generals under the command of Zhengxi are all the elites of my Great Wei, and it must be easy to take Xihai."

"Hmph. You have all seen the sergeants under the command of Hu Lu, and most of the weapons in their hands are said to be from the West Sea, although there is no definite evidence, but it is a fact that the Zhenbei Army of the West Sea is well-armed, even Hu Lu does not dare to attack the West Sea easily. ”

"How is this possible? Xiliang land is vast and sparsely populated, the land is barren, it is said that the Xiliang army has to rely on the support of the Hexi clan for food and grass, where did they get so many sophisticated weapons? General Wei in the big tent asked in disbelief.

"This time I will return to Beijing to resume my life, Your Majesty intends to end the war in the north, and now Liu Yu of the Jin State is ambitious and wants to seek the Central Plains, so he has to guard against it. Pass my general's order, and order General Zhengxi to lead the army back to the camp immediately, and there must be no mistake. ”

"The last will obey."
