On the night of May 22, before the three bonfires on the southern wall of Chengyin City had been lit, a large number of cavalry troops emerged from the mountainous area south of Chengyin City, and then launched an attack on the Wuheng Heng camp south of Chengyin City without hesitation.

And this cavalry unit attacking the Wuheng Heng battalion was the thirteen cavalry battalions under Liu Ji, and the thirteen captains of the original thirteen cavalry battalions had not waited for the three bonfires on the southern wall of Chengyin City, which was the signal for them to attack, which made them more and more anxious.

The thirteen captains knew in their hearts that Liu Ji wanted to use Chengyin City to consume the strength of hundreds of thousands of allied troops of the Hu people as much as possible, and then let the thirteen cavalry battalions attack, striving to defeat the Hu army outside Chengyin City in one battle.

However, the thirteen captains were very worried about Liu Ji's safety in Chengyin City, and Yang Zaixing, Hua Xiong, and Chen Wu were clamoring every day to immediately attack the Hu people coalition forces outside Chengyin City.

Su Lie, who was appointed by Liu Ji as the temporary commander of the thirteen cavalry battalions, was also under tremendous pressure during the ten days of the Hu people's siege of the city, in case Liu Ji, the lord, made any mistakes in Chengyin City, Su Lie could only commit suicide and martyrdom, and even if he didn't commit suicide, the hot-tempered Yang Zaixing would definitely cut off his head, who let Su Lie stop Yang Zaixing these days, and did not let Yang Zaixing lead the troops back to Chengyin City.

Su Lie couldn't help but feel very helpless about Liu Ji's decision to stay in Chengyin City, if Liu Ji and the thirteen cavalry battalions withdrew to the territory of Longchang County, he would not have such a big pressure.

In the end, Su Lie and the other twelve cavalry captains discussed it and decided not to wait for the signal of Chengyin City, anyway, the Hu people outside Chengyin City had lost at least 100,000 people in the siege, and the time was ripe to launch a counterattack, so except for Yan Yan's cavalry battalion, which continued to stay in Longchang County to protect more than 200,000 people and a large number of livestock, the remaining 12 cavalry battalions all entered the mountainous area south of Chengyin City on the afternoon of 22 May.

Although the leaders of the various ethnic groups of the grassland coalition army outside Chengyin City also made some precautions against the Jin cavalry troops that did not appear, according to the strength of the defense of Chengyin City, the leaders of all ethnic groups believed that the main force of the Jin cavalry troops in Chengyin County should also be in the city, otherwise Chengyin City would have been broken a long time ago.

Therefore, the precautions were not so strict, and the various ethnic groups were ready to retreat early tomorrow morning, as a result, some Wuheng cavalry originally arranged at the exit of the mountainous area south of Chengyin City withdrew to the Wuheng Heng camp tonight, so that Su Lie, Yang Zaixing, and their twelve battalions of cavalry troops successfully came to the Wuheng Heng camp on the night of May 22 to launch a surprise attack.

The shouting of killing suddenly broke the quiet night, and Wuheng Heng Khan Shuerha, who was sleeping in the felt bag, was instantly awakened, and then a guard opened the curtain and rushed in and said: "Great Khan, it's not good!" A large number of Jin cavalry suddenly rushed into our camp! ”

"What's the panic, hurry up and help Ben Da Khan put on his armor, there are hundreds of thousands of cavalry of various tribes in the grassland outside Chengyin City, how many cavalry can the Jin people have!" Chengyin City can't be captured, just slaughtering all these Jin cavalry, and it can be regarded as revenge for the Wuheng warriors who died in battle! ”

However, Shuerha did not expect that the Jin cavalry that attacked the Wuheng Heng battalion was as high as 120,000, plus it was a surprise attack, the Wuheng Heng battalion was quickly chaotic, and some of the gathered Wuheng cavalry were quickly dispersed, and there were many Wuheng cavalry who saw that the camp was full of Jin cavalry rushing back and forth, and directly chose to scatter and flee.

Shuerha and his sons could only gather the Wuheng cavalry as much as possible, and barely resisted a large number of Jin cavalry in the camp, hoping that the coalition forces from the other three directions outside Chengyin City would come to support.

In the Loufu camp north of Chengyin City, after receiving the surprise attack of the Wuheng Heng camp by a large number of Jin cavalry, Loufu Khan Mingray immediately summoned the Loufu tribe's Zuoxian King Maurer, Zuoyi King Haoburi and Right Yi King Sterleng into their felt bags.

After the three kings of the Lou Fu clan came to Minglei's felt bag together, Zuoxian King Maurer hurriedly said, "Great Khan, why did you summon us here at this time?" Let's hurry up and retreat to the grassland overnight! ”

Mingrei hesitated and said, "Anyway, we are also a coalition army, and now that the Wuheng battalion is under attack, should we send troops to support?" ”

Zuoyi Wang Haoburi immediately said: "Don't be stupid, since the Great Khan has decided to withdraw to the grassland tomorrow, then the so-called coalition army is equivalent to having been disbanded, and our Lou Fu clan has lost 40,000 warriors here in Chengyin City, so don't go to the troubled waters of the Wuheng people at this time!" ”

Youyi King Sterlen also said: "Great Khan, let the Wuheng people lose some more strength, it is beneficial to our Loufu clan, after all, the Cangxiong tribe was destroyed, and the Wuheng people are equivalent to crushing us in terms of strength." ”

Mingrei pondered for a moment and then ordered: "All tribes immediately reorganize their troops and horses, just taking advantage of the opportunity of the Jin cavalry being entangled in the Wuheng Heng camp, we will immediately withdraw to the direction of Xishan Pass, and withdraw to the grassland from Xishan Pass." ”

After the attack on the Wuheng Heng battalion, not only did Lou Nuren not send troops to support, but chose to withdraw directly to the grassland, and the Rouran tribe, Donghu tribe, Dangxiang tribe and Ding Ling tribe in the east outside Chengyin City also did not send troops to support, but invariably withdrew in the direction of Xishan Pass at night.

Only in the west of Chengyin City, the Shatuo tribe, because of the strategic alliance with the Wuheng tribe, did not see death and did not save it, but gathered more than 20,000 cavalry of the Wusun tribe, the Qiuzi tribe, the Ruoqiang tribe, the Beilu tribe, the Ronglu tribe, the Qule tribe, and the Shule tribe, as well as the remaining 27,000 cavalry of the Shatuo tribe itself, and directly rushed to the Wuheng Heng camp to support.

In the Wuheng Heng camp, where the shouting of killing shook the sky, Zuo Xian Wang Tulai rode a horse to the side of Wuheng Heng Khan Shuerha, "Great Khan, Lou Annoying, Rouran, Donghu, Dangxiang, and Ding Ling all ran away directly, only Shatuo Great Khan Evil Zhiyi came over with tens of thousands of cavalry to support!" ”

When Wuheng Heng Khan Shuerha heard this, he immediately gritted his teeth and whispered: "This group of bastards, if there is a chance in the future, Ben Da Khan will not let them go!" Hurry up and let the evil Zhiyi lead the cavalry to charge the Jin people, buy some time for our Wuheng warriors in the camp, and let Ben Da Khan gather the army! ”

Liu Ji just fell asleep at night, and was awakened by the sound of shouting killing, and then learned that his cavalry troops had launched an attack on the Wuheng Heng camp in the south of the city, so Liu Ji hurriedly took a large number of generals and climbed the south wall of Chengyin City to watch the battle.
