Dafeng has the king of Jingbei, the king of Anxi, and the king of the East China Sea; The Northern Barbarians are no exception.

The founding of the Beiban can be traced back to 1,300 years ago, they originated from the bitter cold land in the far north, and then moved all the way south, taking root in the Liaohe grassland, the first hundred tribes in the land of the Beiban, most of them are similar to the small tribes of the Beipi, and later the Yelu tribe in the north of the Liaohe River rose, swept all the way to the west, and finally unified the grassland and established the khanate.

Those brothers of the same clan who followed the Great Khan of the Northern Barbarians all the way to the expedition were named eight Northern Barbarian same-sex kings, and unlike the throne of Dafeng, the throne of the Northern Barbarians can be inherited hereditarily, and it has been inherited for more than a thousand years now.

It's just that today's Eight Kings of the Northern Barbarians are long gone, and they have long become synonymous with the gate lord clan.

Even so, the Eight Kings of the Northern Barbarians are still in charge of more than half of the Northern Barbarians' army, and the civil strife two years ago was because of the secret operation of these gate lords and nobles, which made the Northern Barbarians civil strife more than several years.

If you ask why the Great Khan of the Northern Barbarians doesn't deal with these rich princes? The answer is difficult, with more than half of the army, more than the army under the command of the Northern Barbarian Khan, if it were not for the rise of the Shaozhuang faction in these years, I am afraid that the civil strife will continue.

King Hun Tu is one of the eight kings of the Northern Barbarians, the most powerful of the eight, with an army of 200,000, more than the other seven kings combined, so he has a lot of power in the court of the Northern Barbarian King, and even the Great Khan has to give him three points.

However, the current Huntu King Yelu Chengde has no great talent, two years ago in the civil strife, his father is the previous Huntu King died in civil strife in order to protect Yelu Rongguang, after the enthronement Yelu Chengde has been an idle since he was a child, so happy to make great achievements.

The previous king of Hun Tu also knew his son's temperament, and originally wanted to pass on the throne to the side line, but he never wanted to die in battle accidentally, and Yelu Chengde inherited the throne of Hun Tu naturally.

This greedy and lustful prince with heavy troops has always had a grudge against the newly rising young Zhuang faction soldiers, and this time Murong Zhuozhuo led the army to fight, he tried his best to oppose it, but when he learned that Murong Zhuozhuo almost took down Zhang Xingshan, the general of Pingjiao, this Hun Tu King began to feel uneasy and kind.

Finally, when he heard that the Emperor of the Central Plains was personally driving, this Hun Tu King had a thought, and united with the Seven Kings to put pressure on the Northern Barbarian Khan, forcing Murong Zhuozhuo to retreat, and then he took this plate of fat with joy.

Twilight march, when Murong Zhuozhuo withdrew with the army to the border of Hulang Lege, a little red light suddenly appeared in the distance, and if you look carefully, it turned out to be the army of King Hun Tu holding the banner of "Yelu", and the army of 200,000 people walked sparsely on the wasteland, the soldiers were listless, and even dozed off while walking, one by one.

On the other hand, on Murong Zhuozhuo's side, the army is neat, and the soldiers are even more radiant, when the two armies are staggered, the gap is clear at a glance, and the king of Hun Tu, who is riding a horse and walking in front of the army, has a felt hat on his head, a scimitar at his waist, and a fat head and big ears are sitting on a sweaty horse.

After he saw Murong Zhuo's army, he didn't know if it was jealousy, so he spat directly, "What's the matter, isn't it just a relative of the Great Khan, and it's really pretended for you." ”

At this moment, Murong Zhuozhuo came on horseback, and when he saw Queen Hun Tu, he bowed his head and saluted, "The last general Murong Zhuozhuo will pay homage to the prince." ”

King Hun Tu looked at Murong Zhuozhuo proudly, and nodded slightly, "You are doing well, but you are still too young, these two countries are fighting, not only the soldiers under their hands, but also the strategy and scheming of the generals; You've done a good job, now go back and rest, and leave the rest to the king. ”

Murong Zhuozhuo sneered, although he wanted to complain in his heart for a long time, he still endured it and didn't say it, "Then it's hard for the prince." ”

"Let's go." King Hun Tu said that he would go forward.

"Wait a minute, Lord Wang." Murong Zhuozhuo suddenly stopped King Hun Tu, stepped forward and smiled, "I almost told you, Yan Ziyue is gone, I don't know if this is good news for you, if it is, it will be regarded as a meeting gift to you by the last general." ”

"What?"

Although this prince has lived in the royal court for a long time, he also knows the name of the Three Tigers on the border, and the famous general Yan Ziyue of the first generation is gone, and he still can't believe it when he says it.

Murong Zhuozhuo didn't care about King Hun Tu's consternation, and turned to leave, while King Hun Tu looked at Murong Zhuozhuo's back, the more he looked at it, the more uncomfortable he became, and he felt that there were thousands of ants crawling in his heart, "This Murong Zhuo Zhuo is slapping this king in the face......

……

Dingzhou, Pingjiaoguan.

Although Yan Ziyue was killed in battle, but this Pingjiao Pass should still be guarded, the entire pass raised the white flag, raised the white flag, all the soldiers held their breath, they all wanted to break these damned Northern barbarians into pieces, to avenge their generals, those Northern Army was even more so, one by one with fierce eyes, full of righteous indignation, just waiting to avenge their general.

Soon after Murong Zhuozhuo's army withdrew, the Northern Barbarian Banner reappeared outside the pass, Qin Feng had just received a letter from Gao Zhen three days ago, and the content of the letter made Qin Feng frown.

This Qi Xi is the absolute core of the Beidi Army, if Gao Zhen really wants to take this opportunity to take the Beiban and the Northern Territory in one fell swoop, then Qi Xi is indeed a huge threat, thinking of this, Qin Feng frowned, this Qi Xi is far away in Shanhaiguan, and he is really beyond the reach of the whip.

At this moment, the scout hurriedly rushed in and said, "General Qiyu, the Northern Barbarian army is pressing the border, and there seem to be signs of siege. ”

"Order the three armies to prepare for battle."

As soon as Qin Feng heard this, he walked out directly with his sword, Qin Feng, who was standing at the head of the city, looked down, for some reason, he always felt that the Northern Barbarian Army in front of him seemed to be a little different from the previous battle.

The Northern Barbarians attacked the city in chaos, but the chaos of Murong Zhuo before was rhythmic to minimize casualties; And the Northern Barbarian Army in front of them, one by one, rushed forward, regardless of the head and tail, it was really messy.

"General Qin, how does this not feel like Murong Zhuo's army, but a bit like the Northern Barbarian Army we encountered before." Zhang Xingshan stood aside, looked at the Northern Barbarian Army in front of him, and said suspiciously.

Qin Feng held the hilt of his sword, closed his eyes and condensed, his brows furrowed, "This is the army of Yelu Chengde, the king of Hun Tu. ”

"Huh? Changing players before the formation? ”

Zhang Xingshan was stunned, the generals who had been in the Imperial Army Mansion knew that the two armies were fighting, especially this kind of battle related to the country's luck, it has always been cautious, and it is absolutely not feasible to change generals before the battle until the last resort.

This Northern Barbarian Royal Court didn't know what was going on, and actually replaced Murong Zhuozhuo, if it was Murong Zhuozhuo, Qin Feng might still be a little jealous, but if it was King Hun Tu, then he would have no scruples.

With an army of this quality, let alone Qin Feng, even if Zhang Xingshan is allowed to come, this level will not be broken.

"The army is trekking, it stands to reason that the army must first rest and explore the terrain, the so-called tired army is difficult to fight, this Hun Tu King is a little impatient to attack the city like this." Zhang Xingshan muttered.

Qin Feng next to him snorted disdainfully, turned around and walked back, "General Zhang, you can do it yourself." ”

"Yes." Zhang Xingshan also understood that the commander of the three armies at the level of Qin Feng disdained to fight Murong Chengde, what he wanted was an opponent of the level of Qi Xi and Gongsun Changfeng.

The army roared and charged, Zhang Xingshan was not ambiguous, any time the enemy was deadly, bows, crossbows, boiling oil, falling rocks, Zhang Xingshan did not hesitate to greet all of them.

The army of King Hun Tu was originally some lazy mediocre soldiers, who either drank wine and ate meat on weekdays, or gambled to find women, and now they are on the battlefield, as soon as they see this posture, they have lost their momentum when they rush in three or two, and they actually began to retreat one by one, and even those who led the soldiers to charge did not dare to rush, let alone these northern barbarian troops.

Seeing that his imposing army of 200,000 troops had retreated in less than half an hour, this made King Hun Tu angry enough, picked up his saber and shouted, "What are you doing retreating?" Hurry up to this king, take the Pingjiao Pass, and take the head of the Emperor of the Central Plains. ”

This army charged with great strength, and then declined, and then exhausted, not to mention that they had not yet beaten the drum to help, watching the army hesitate, King Hun Tu angrily directly cut off more than a dozen heads of the commanders, but it was still useless, and in the end, the King of Hun Tu had to leave more than 5,000 corpses and retreat in disgrace.

When night came, Qin Feng kept staring at the armament map on the wall, sitting on the table with one hand supporting his chin, staring at the map in contemplation, and after a while, Zhang Xingshan walked in and arched his hand, "General, you are looking for me." ”

Qin Feng nodded, got up and sat down, "General Zhang, sit down, and talk about the views of the day and these troops." ”

"I have been guarding the border for decades, and I have fought with the Northern Barbarian Army for a lot, but most of the time it is a little fight, if the last general says, King Hun Tu's army is more than a star and a half worse than Murong Zhuozhuo's army.

The army of 200,000 sounds like a lot of people, but half of the army is old, weak, sick and disabled, and half and half are greedy for pleasure, greedy for life and afraid of death; There are less than 50,000 people who are really fighting at war. Zhang Xingshan's evaluation hit the nail on the head and directly pointed out the problem of King Huntu's army.

Qin Feng nodded appreciatively, "Your Majesty is in Cangtong City now, and I am thinking about what to give to Your Majesty as a greeting gift, and King Hun Tu is here." ”

"General Qin, do you want to eat King Hun Tu's 200,000 troops as a greeting gift to Your Majesty?" Zhang Xingshan was stunned, although only 50,000 people could fight these 200,000, but no matter how you say it, this is also a 200,000 Northern Barbarian Army, not 200,000 sheep, Qin Feng's appetite is really big/

Qin Feng smiled slightly, and put one finger on the place of Pingjiao Pass, "200,000 troops, I want to let at least 100,000 people stay in Pingjiao Pass." ”

"General, do you already have a plan for the enemy?"

"The Northland cavalry is famous, whether you can break the enemy this time depends on you, General Zhang." Qin Feng patted Zhang Xingshan's shoulder and smiled lightly.

This smile means a lot.
