p

It is a hill with a gentle slope with Panyang Mountain to the east and a river to the south.

When the Houyan people arrived in Sanhepi, the weather suddenly deteriorated and they encountered a sandstorm.

A black line poured in from the northwest, and in an instant, a sandstorm covered the Houyan army.

Seeing that he could not continue the march, Murong Bao ordered a temporary halt and camped on the eastern slope of Shenhepi.

He chose to camp on the eastern slope, apparently to take advantage of the hill to block the wind and sand.

However, it was for the sake of temporary comfort that Murong Bao made another major mistake.

In the case that the Wei army was likely to attack from the west, they camped on the eastern slope, completely blocking their view from the hillside.

In addition, because the whole army knew that there was His Royal Highness of King Zhao, they thought it was safe, so they were even more lax and unprepared, and completely exposed their backs in front of the Wei army.

With Murong Lin's quiet and secret help, Tuoba Jue, who traveled day and night, successfully arrived on the western slope of Shenhepi.

The Wei army quickly ascertained the disposition of the Houyan army on the other side of the ridge.

And the Houyan army, which is separated by a ridge, still knows nothing about this.

The night before the attack, Tuoba Jue summoned the Wei generals and agreed on a detailed attack plan.

Next, under the cover of the sound of wind and sand, the Wei army's iron cavalry quietly entered the attack position.

Yan Jun, who was still asleep, had no idea that the Grim Reaper was coming towards them step by step from the dark night.

In the early morning, the sandstorm that had lasted for two days finally stopped, and the sun showed a small half of its face from the eastern mountains.

The dawn is misty, the waning moon loses its luster, hanging on the horizon, and the sky reveals proteins.

The clouds on the horizon seemed to be soaked in blood, gradually turning from a faint red to a bright red.

Tuoba Jue led the Wei army to the top of Panyang Mountain, where a thin layer of ice formed on the surface of the lake at the foot of the mountain, which was as silent as death, and the withered grass was covered with a layer of hoarfrost formed by the condensation of crystal dewdrops.

Tuoba Jue climbed the ridge of Shenhepi and looked down the slope into the camp of the Yan army, but saw that the people and horses were clearly visible.

The tents of the Yan army were next to each other, undulating like waves, and the camp was quiet, and the remnants of the fire were faintly smoking.

A sneer crossed his face, and with a wave of his big hand, he gave the order to attack softly.

The soldiers of the Yan army who woke up were just about to make a fire to make food, when they suddenly saw countless Wei troops, rushing towards them.

The Yan army has been out of the army since July, almost three months ago, and has long since become a tired and lazy army.

As a result, the unprepared Yan army, facing the Wei army falling from the sky, was frightened.

Encountering an attack, the Yan army, which was already out of formation, panicked and stirred, and it was even more chaotic.

The generals can't find the soldiers, and the soldiers can't find the generals they belong to, and everything loses its rules.

The noisy noise outside the big tent woke Murong Bao from his sleep, and he rubbed his sleepy eyes and listened intently.

Suddenly, his heart tightened, and he raised his hand and rubbed his eyes vigorously, and his eyes widened wider and wider, as if he had seen a devil through the gap in the tent.

I saw that the shadows outside the big tent were full of Tuoba Xianbei cavalry, and the hoarse roar of the Yan soldiers kept coming from my ears.

"Solu! Solu! ”

In a panic, the disheveled Yan soldiers in the military tent rushed out of the tent one after another.

At this moment, the entire barracks was in chaos, and the Yan soldiers were running wildly, shouting.

A long, poignant and piercing horn sounded from the top of the mountain, and to Yan Bing's ears, it was like a scream urging the devil to summon spirits.

Countless Wei horses roared down from the north and west, the roar of war horses shook the valley, and the snow-bright swords and spears shone in the morning sun.

The Yan army was in a mess and ran south to squeeze into Shenhepi.

The river in the south is smooth, and there are countless people who trample on horses, trample and drown.

A round of red sun erupted, and thousands of tents were blood-red.

Tuoba was on his horse, a smug smile crossed his face, and his eyes became brighter and brighter, as if a wolf had discovered its prey.

At this time, the sun was rising, and the Wei army took advantage of the colorful glow, as if the gods had descended to earth, and launched a crazy slaughter of the Yan army.

The Wei army was like a tiger descending from the mountain, and the shouts of killing in all directions shook the sky and resounded in the sky.

The Yan army was at a loss in panic and fled from place to place, competing for their lives.

When he heard the shouts of killing, Murong Bao was not mentally prepared at all.

He didn't even wear his clothes neatly, so he hurriedly ran out of the big tent, but saw that the outside of the tent was already in chaos, and even the guards had slipped away from the school and did not know where to go.

Murong Bao stood in the middle of the big tent in a daze, his face pale, and he was so frightened that he didn't know what to do.

At this time, Murong De, Murong Long and others came with their guards to protect the crown prince.

As soon as Murong Bao saw the two, he immediately came back to his senses and yelled at them: "Hurry up and organize people to fight back." ”

Murong De cried and said, "It's too late!" Now that the army is scattered, how can there be manpower? Before the Wei army was surrounded, His Highness should flee for his life. ”

"No, no, I don't believe it! There are nearly 100,000 troops alone, how can you say that if you don't have it, it's gone? You must be lying to me. ”

Murong Bao looked like crazy, he didn't believe the facts in front of him, and repeatedly asked the generals to organize troops to fight back.

Seeing that the Wei army was about to kill the Chinese army, and the prince was reluctant to leave.

Murong De gritted his teeth, and immediately ordered the two guards to set up Murong Bao on horseback.

Then he led his headquarters to desperately rush through a bloody road to protect the crown prince Murong Bao and escape.

As soon as Murong Bao left, he immediately accelerated the rout of the Yan army, and the cavalry involuntarily fled behind the prince.

And tens of thousands of infantry saw that they could not escape, and they could not fight, so they knelt down and surrendered.

Tuoba Jue, who was rushing to kill, couldn't help but be annoyed as he watched Murong Bao and the Yan cavalry flee.

Because Tuoba Lie failed to go south in time to participate in the war, the Wei army was insufficient and could not completely annihilate the Yan army.

"Damn!" Tuoba Jue grumbled viciously, and turned his head to look at Xi Jin, Shusun Jian and other generals.

"Wait and stay to continue to encircle and annihilate the Yan army, and the widow will go to pursue Murong Bao in person."

After speaking, without waiting for the crowd to object, Tuoba Jue turned his horse's head and chased in the direction of Murong Bao's escape.

In this battle, the Wei army won a complete victory, except for nearly 20,000 Yan cavalry who escaped, the remaining 40,000 or 50,000 people all surrendered.

In addition, the Wei army captured more than 1,000 civil and military generals including Murong Wunu, King of Luyang, Murong Daocheng, King of Guilin, Murong Yinguo, Duke of Jiyin, Murong Zhongkui, Prince of Beidi, and Murong Yanger, Prince of Anding.

More than 100,000 weapons, armor, heavy materials and various miscellaneous items were seized.

Although the results of the battle were very huge, in the end, 20,000 Yan cavalry escaped the pursuit, making the battle unfinished.

Compared with the historical Battle of Sanhepi, the losses of the Yan army were relatively small.

Although he lost all the infantry and more than 10,000 cavalry, Murong Bao was lucky to escape with 20,000 cavalry.

The reason for this result is greatly related to Hexi's planning of Rouran's southward movement.

Rouran united with Murong Nong of Liaodong to send troops to Monan, forcing Tuoba Lie and Yan Feng to give up going south and go north to meet the enemy.

It wasn't until ten days after the end of the war that Tuoba Lie was late.

Knowing that it was Rouran who was the obstacle, Tuoba Jue stared at the north with a fierce look in his eyes, and muttered to himself: "Rouran people! ”

"King, Rouran is not to worry about, and it is not worth making a big fuss about it."

"Although the battle of Hepi was not completed this time, it still hit the Yan Kingdom hard."

"The other generation of land has been recovered, and then we should take advantage of the natural disaster in Hexi, and send troops as soon as possible to pass through the dark Ji."

"Otherwise, when Hexi recovers next year, that Wei Shuo will definitely not watch Great Wei occupy Hebei."

"And the Southern Dynasty and the Eastern Jin Dynasty are also ready to move, we can't be busy and end up cheapening others, right?"

"Well, Hong Long has a point! It's just that Murong Trai ......, "Tuoba Jue has always been jealous of Murong Trai.

"King, even if Murong Trai doesn't die this time, it is estimated that he only has half a life left."

"The minister asked the king to spread scouts to Zhongshan, and as soon as he heard any rumors, the army immediately went south."

"Okay, just follow Honglong's wishes."

Subsequently, Tuoba Jue selected some talented people to stay in office among the captured Houyan officials.

However, because the three great talents of Jia Yi, Jia Boudo, and Chao Chong had left ahead of schedule, Wei did not harvest many talents.

In addition, the lesson of killing prisoners in Youzhou was learned, and this time Tuoba Jue did not kill prisoners as in the original history.

Instead, at the suggestion of Zhang Yan and others, the captured Yan army and the Wei army were remixed and greatly strengthened their own strength.

The Battle of Shenhepi was a major battle that decided the fate of Wei and Yan, after which the Northern Wei Dynasty was in full swing, and the Later Yan was declining and finally perished.
