But there were also failures in this Dingxiang campaign - at that time, Wei Qing combined the two armies of Zhao Xin and Su Jian into one and marched separately from the army, Wei Qing's design was that he and Zhao Xin and Su Jian acted separately to form a joint encirclement of the Xiongnu soldiers, and it was easy to win.

But there was a mistake in this design - they never expected that Zhao Xin and Su Jian's troops would encounter the main force led by Yi Zhi Xian Shan Yu on the way before joining the siege with the large army, and the number of Xiongnu soldiers was more than three times that of the Han soldiers, but Wei Qing encountered a small group of Xiongnu troops, which was not considered in advance.

The two generals led more than 3,000 Han cavalry to fight with tens of thousands of Hun cavalry, Yi Zhi Xian was the first two eagle demons to make waves, the eagle demons released poisonous smoke, so that some soldiers fainted, their steel claw hooks continued to kill the Han soldiers, throwing the corpses into the air, forming a deterrent effect on the Han soldiers.

Su Jian led three thousand soldiers, not afraid of the eagle demon, and the Huns fought fiercely for more than a day, but the soldiers he sent to find Wei Qing's rescue had been killed by the Huns on the road, Su Jian was outnumbered, the whole army was surrounded by the Huns, he called Zhao Xin to help him break through from outside, but Zhao Xin hesitated, and the Han army led by Su Jian finally failed, and almost the whole army was wiped out.

Zhao Xin was originally a general of the Huns, and after the surrender of the Han Dynasty, he was named the Marquis of Xi, at this time he saw that the Huns were strong, and he had no intentions when he fought, and saw that Su Jian was surrounded, his confidence was shaken, and he led 800 remnants of the army to surrender directly to the Huns.

When Su Jian heard the news, he knew that the rescue was hopeless and Zhao Xin had treacherously surrendered, and he had no intention of fighting, so under the cover of several henchmen soldiers, he successfully broke through on a single horse, and all his henchmen were hit by the eagle demon and died on the spot.

Su Jian fled back to the army without bringing back a single soldier! The rest of the more than 3,000 soldiers of the Han Dynasty all died on the battlefield, leaving the green mountains to bury the souls of the loyal!

When Wei Qing heard the news, he couldn't help crying!

Although Su Jian should be beheaded according to the law, Wei Qing felt that Su Jian also did his best in that situation, and there were certain problems in the early design, so he was not thoughtful, Wei Qing was unwilling to kill the general, and sent someone to send Su Jian to Chang'an.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty pardoned Su Jian and demoted him to a concubine.

Li Guang was also very dissatisfied with Wei Qing's treatment, he felt that Wei Qing was becoming more and more indistinguishable from reward and punishment, and such a complaining spirit gradually began to circulate and spread to Wei Qing, for the unity of the army, Wei Qing heard it, but he didn't hear it, because Li Guang was an old man after all, an old qualification, an old general, and he didn't want to offend him!

This defeat let Wei Qing know the power of the Eagle Demon, and the Han Army did not have a good way to deal with the Eagle Demon for the time being, so Wei Qing knew the importance of discussing the early design in a variety of ways, which made him miss Chunsheng even more!

Although there is now a brave Huo Qusheng in the army, but in dealing with the Eagle Demon, Huo Qubing is definitely not as good as Chunsheng who can spell, so Chunsheng is even more rare! Although there are Xia Sheng and Qiu Sheng in the army, they are difficult to compare with Chunsheng -- his wit, his bravery, he can be literate and martial, he is calm and rational, he never comes nonsense, and his spells are unpredictable, so Xia Sheng and Qiu Sheng are not as good as Chun Sheng!

He decided to report to the emperor, and in any case, he still had to invite Chunsheng out of the mountain. But he also knows that it is difficult for Chunsheng to come out of the mountain, even if Chunsheng is willing, Jasmine may not be willing!

After Zhao Xin surrendered to the Xiongnu, he offered advice to Yi Zhi Xian Shan Yu: "King, I suggest that the Xiongnu human and animal army be moved to the north, induce the Han army to go deeper, and then give a blow when it is extremely tired from afar!" Yi Zhi Xian Shan Yu discussed with the military advisor and the eagle demon, and thought that seeing that the Han army was getting stronger, if it was dead in Monan, it would only become more and more difficult, so it was better to adopt Zhao Xin's strategy, so Yi Zhi Xian adopted Zhao Xin's suggestion and ordered the Xiongnu troops to withdraw from the Monan region and move far to the north of Mo, and at the same time send troops to continue to attack and harass Hanbian.

Twice Dingxiang sent troops, broke the Yizhi slope of tens of thousands of Hun soldiers, and also captured many high-ranking Hun officials, Wei Qing and Huo Quai's battle in Monan was regarded as a certain victory, but they knew that a more cruel war was waiting for them! Wei Qing and Huo Quzhi discussed that if they wanted to achieve a greater victory, they must all go out of the mountains in Dongfang Shuo's family!

Wei Qing had no choice but to go to the palace to meet Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and say that there was something important to discuss. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty took Wei Qing to the inner hall and asked the rest of the people to retreat, and the emperor asked Wei Qing: "Why are you so anxious?"

Wei Qing said: "It is impossible to stop the Xiongnu war, but if you want to win, you must have a family out of the horse?"

The emperor asked, "Who?"

Wei Qing said: "Dongfang Shuo's family, of course he wants to bring his apprentices Chunsheng and Jasmine with him!"

The emperor asked curiously, "Why do you want these three people?"

Wei Qing said: "Dongfang Shuo's wisdom is extraordinary, he is far-sighted, he can be a military advisor; Chunsheng fights with courage and boundless mana, and can be the commander of a unit, but Chunsheng now has an eye disease, and his wife Jasmine can assist him, Jasmine's skill The emperor has learned it! With a family participating in the war, the combat power of our army will immediately increase, especially these three people can subdue the fierce eagle demon and ensure that our army is not bewitched by the eagle demon!"

The emperor thought for a moment and said, "Jasmine, is that the handsome woman who defeated Han Yan?

Wei Qing was angry and funny when he heard this, what time has it been, and he is still thinking about the beauty of others.

Chunsheng replied: "I have already married and given birth to a dragon and phoenix fetus." ”

Emperor Wu of Han felt a little pity, and then said, "These three people, it is difficult for you to convince them, so you came to me, right?"

Wei Qing smiled and said, "Yes."

"Then I'll have to think about it. The emperor said with a smile.
