The time was already 356 AD, the first month of the ninth year of Emperor Kaihuang of Wei, Hua Mulan led the 200,000 horses of the Wei-Hu coalition army to march all the way, marching forward, and finally arrived at Longcheng, the capital of Yan State. On the other hand, Wei General Li Xin had already swung his army forward, bypassing Hukou Pass and rushing straight to Dragon City.

Seeing that the enemy army was already approaching the city, Murong Jun had no choice but to send people to continue to ask for help from Murong Ke in Mobei, and asked the latter to hurry back to the court and return to King Qin, and he gathered the soldiers and civilians in the city to defend the city together.

After the siege equipment was delivered to Dragon City, Hua Mulan, as the commander of the coalition army, ordered the siege of the city as soon as possible.

"Shoot the arrows!"

"Hold on! Don't let a Wei dog in! ”

The Yan soldiers at the head of the city drew their bows and arrows to shoot the enemies who climbed the ladders, or threw stones and rolling logs to kill them, or scalded them to death with oil pots and water.

But the enemy troops under the city were still like ants, and the crowds were surging, climbing up the ladder one after another.

It was the Hu people who were responsible for the siege of the city, and the soldiers such as Goguryeo, Qigu, and Fuyu all served as cannon fodder, consuming the vitality of the Xianbei people.

At the front of the coalition phalanx, the Wei army was responsible for firing arrows, suppressing the defenders above with firepower and covering their own soldiers to rush forward.

The battle was very tragic.

Even Murong Jun put on his helmet and armor and came to the city to supervise the battle in person!

Seeing the heavy casualties of her own soldiers, Hua Mulan did not withdraw her troops, but continued to give orders, allowing more fresh troops to rush forward.

It is said that Hua Mulan has not been idle in the Korean Peninsula over the years, and when she has time, she has people make stone throwers, trebuchets, siege towers, crash cars and other such siege equipment, and train the Hu people in the tactics of attacking the city.

The Wei army stationed in Goguryeo was only tens of thousands, but relying on the prestige of Hua Mulan and the prestige of the empire, she could pull up hundreds of thousands of troops to fight at any time.

Whenever it comes to attacking the city, the Wei army will not act as a vanguard, only in the frontal field battle, the elite Wei army iron cavalry will bear the first wave of damage, and wait until they break into the enemy formation and almost defeat the enemy army, and the Hu people coalition army behind will follow!

With the hand of razing and razing, Mulan played very slippery.

Seeing that his soldiers were killed and wounded so heavily, a Goguryeo general couldn't bear it, so he said to Mulan: "Governor, why don't we withdraw our troops for the time being?" The resistance of the Xianbei people is so tenacious, you see, even Murong Jun's banner is here! I definitely can't beat Dragon City now. ”

"Nope." Hua Mulan shook her head and said, "I will never withdraw my troops!" After passing the order, the 200,000 army was divided into twenty echelons, and they took turns to attack the eastern city of Dragon City! I don't believe it, I can't even take a dragon city! ”

"No!"

At this time, the general on the side said: "Grand Duke, the red-coated cannon sent by the Great Liang is still at sea, why don't you wait until the empire sends the red-coated cannon over before attacking the city?" ”

Mulan didn't answer.

In this public, it is not easy for Mulan to say her inner thoughts in a grand manner.

The reason why she prompted these Hu people to attack the city was to consume their vitality and use them as cannon fodder. Previously, Ran Min gave her a secret edict, saying that he wanted to establish an Andong Protectorate in Liaodong and even in the Bohai Sea, that is to say, these Hu people at the moment, don't look at the fact that they are still fighting side by side, at that time, maybe how many people will jump out and make enemies of the Wei State!

Mulan decided to continue to recruit troops from various tribes, recruiting 100,000 warriors to come and fight.

And at this moment, at night, Murong Jun waited for more than a month and didn't wait for Murong Ke's Qinwang Division, and couldn't help but be furious: "Murong Ke, this bastard thing!" How did he do it? Why don't you return to the dynasty now and rush to King Qinwang in Longcheng? Is he trying to rebel?! ”

"Your Majesty is angry!" The ministers shouted.

Xiang Guo Feng Yi came out and said: "Your Majesty, isn't Mobei being attacked by the north and south of the Gaoche people and the Wei army right now?" Da Sima was unable to send troops to support Liaodong and rushed to Longcheng to come to King Qin, which is also understandable! ”

"It's a fart!" Murong Jun said with a face full of disgust: "The advice that Murong Ke has given me in the past few days is all prevarication!" The Gaoche people have been repelled by him, and the Wei army has been dragged down by his tactics of clearing the wilderness, and it may collapse at any time! At this time, he didn't come back to rescue Dragon City, what kind of heart did he have? In my opinion, Murong Ke wants to die in Longcheng and Liaodong, so that he can rely on his prestige to command the armies and claim the king and hegemony according to Mobei! ”

"Your Majesty, the minister thought that Da Sima would definitely not do this, and he would not think like this. Da Sima has always had his own ideas and considerations, it may be that the pressure on him from the Gaoche people and the Wei army is too great, so that he does not dare to take it lightly, and divides his troops to return to King Qin of Longcheng. ”

Seeing Feng Yi's painstaking persuasion, Murong Jun snorted coldly: "Mobei is originally a land of right and wrong. My Yan Kingdom doesn't have such a big national strength to rule Mobei at all, since I can't rule it, I just give up! Liaodong is the ancestral land of my Yan country, the land of Longxing, how can I give up? Liaodong and Mobei, which is more important, he Murong Ke should be clear in his heart! ”

"I will draw up a will, ordering Murong Ke's class to return to the court, and not a single soldier will stay in Mobei!"

At this time, the Wei army, which was far away in Mobei, encountered an unprecedented predicament.

The hungry Wei army had no choice but to kill war horses to satisfy their hunger, and took ice and snow as water to drink. The morale of the Wei army began to slump and gradually collapsed.

Su Lin was pressing his sword, leading a group of generals to inspect the camp, and saw the soldiers braving the cold wind and the snow flying there with their swords and ice, and he couldn't help but have a sour nose and felt very sad.

After crossing the Datuo River, it was already spring, thinking that the weather would become warmer, who knew that the further north the climate, the colder it became, some soldiers could not adapt to this climate, and there were many people who were frozen to death and frostbitten.

What's even more tragic is that the Wei army's war horses killed one-third and lasted for half a month, but they still failed to find the main force of the Xianbei people, and they couldn't even see the figures.

Ran Ke next to him sighed and said, "Metropolitan Governor, now we really have no way out." Of the 50,000 troops we entered Mobei, only 3,000 were killed in battle, and then tens of thousands of people were frozen to death, infected to death, and missing! The soldiers lack food and clothing, and they are unable to fight again, even if they encounter the main force of the Xianbei people at this time, I am afraid that we will be a dead end! ”

Surin was silent.

What can he do at this time? Where can Wei Jun go?

"I have sent someone to Daijun to ask the imperial court to transport grain and grass to Mobei as soon as possible. In the past, the imperial court mobilized a lot of grain and grass for the war with Mobei, but it was only because His Majesty temporarily asked us to eat in Mobei, so we did not send people to transport it. ”

Su Lin stood on a boulder, looked at the soldiers who were still digging the ice wall, and said loudly: "Brothers! Please hold on for a few more days! The grain and grass of Daijun are already on the way! In a few days, we will have something to eat and something to wear! ”

Boosting his morale, Surin returned to the tent.

At this time, a small school came to report that it was the ranger who found the Xianbei people in the rear.

Su Lin guessed that the Xianbei people were not good, his own combat strength was completely lost, and his morale plummeted, so he ordered the army to build fortifications and build fortifications, ready to resist the attack of the Xianbei people at any time.
