Heaven seems to have been watching over Zhang Yan, and the eight troops, from beginning to end, have not encountered a little danger, I don't know if Zhang Yan's plan is too rigorous, or the defense of the Xianbei people is too lax.

In short, the eight troops have arrived at the designated place, and then it is time for them to put on a good show.

Dome domes are densely arranged, and groups of Xianbei people sit by the bonfire and enjoy the fun of their lives.

Suddenly, a dark round iron ball flew from the night sky, and fell directly into a bonfire in front of a dome, and more than 20 Xianbei people sitting around the bonfire looked at each other for a while, just as they were all full of curiosity as if they wanted to go to see what was going on, only to hear the sound of snorting burning in the bonfire.

"Boom!"

A loud explosion broke the silence of the night on the grassland, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and opened the prelude to this big drama in the camp of the Xianbei people.

This group of more than 20 Xianbei people sitting by the bonfire was instantly bounced far away by the air wave generated by the explosion, and the fragments of the iron ball also flew quickly to their bodies, which immediately made the flesh and blood of this group of people blurred, and even the bonfire was blown up by sparks, and the vault not far away next to it was even more damaged, and the bonfire that was blown up was burned.

Before the rest of the Xianbei people could react, a series of explosions sounded one after another, and in the Xianbei camp at the foot of Jiluo Mountain, this huge explosion sound was heard from all directions, and all the people affected by the explosion were either killed or injured, and the dome was even more deeply affected, and they were all burned by the fire.

But tonight the west wind blew on the grassland again, and it was blowing under the west wind. The burning vault gradually spread in all directions. The fire spread to all sides with lightning speed. Soon a sea of fire was formed.

The sudden scene made the Xianbei people at a loss, just when everyone didn't figure out what was going on, Zhang Yan and others launched an attack on the Xianbei people from eight different directions at the same time, riding war horses, and then the campfire in the Xianbei people's camp kept throwing thunderbolts, and the cavalry who rushed to the front were hideous, and their eyes were full of killing intent.

Chaos begins. The Xianbei people were caught off guard, because it was difficult to distinguish the night, and they didn't know how many people came from the other side, some Xianbei people wanted to go to block, but they were killed by the cavalry who rushed over.

For a time, the Xianbei people's camp was in chaos, with explosions and miserable screams everywhere, and in addition, the fire spread everywhere, which made it more difficult for the Xianbei people to resist.

Because the Xianbei people are fighting against the coalition forces from the Western Regions in the area of Jinwei Mountain. Almost all the elite troops were taken away, and those who remained were some old and weak women and children. Although there was an army, in the face of such a chaotic scene, they didn't know what to do for a while.

And Zhang Yan, Ma Chao, Tai Shici, Xu Chu, Pang De, Ma Dai, Wang Shuang, Yang Fu and others all commanded their subordinates, and launched a fierce attack on the Xianbei people according to the strategy they had discussed before, but if they encountered resistance, they were all killed.

The war soon spread from the edge of the Xianbei camp to Shan Yuting in the center, and the Shan Yu Rilu deduction of the Xianbei people in the west led the army to Jinwei Mountain, and the wife and children of the Japanese law deduction were left in Shan Yuting, as well as the families of the rest of the Xianbei nobles.

Most of the guards responsible for guarding Shan Yuting were sent to patrol dozens of miles away, and there were only more than a thousand guards left, and they quickly gathered together to protect Shan Yuting's people as they moved to the north.

However, Tai Shi Ci was leading the army from the direction of due north, and the front of the troops was unstoppable, and the leader of the guards saw this, and hurriedly changed his path, but no matter which direction he went, he would see the enemy with a fierce face, and finally had to retreat to Shan Yuting, and then decided to break through.

The guards changed the direction of their march again, this time to the northwest, with five hundred men in front and five hundred in the back, and Shan Yuting's men all in the middle, ready to break through.

However, they chose the wrong direction, from the northwest is the soldiers and horses led by Ma Chao, Zhang Yan roughly expected the direction in which the Xianbei people might escape, so he put all the elite cavalry on the west, north, and northwest directions, Xu Chu in the west, Tai Shici in the north, Ma Chao in the northwest, Pang De in the northeast, Wang Shuang in the southwest, Ma Dai in the east, Yang Fu in the southeast, Zhang Yan in the south, eight sides of the attack.

The guards who broke through happened to meet Ma Chao from the northwest, and Ma Chao's subordinates were all elite members of the Ma family's army, elite soldiers in a hundred battles. When the two armies met, the guards who broke through were like crashing into death, and after a rush, they couldn't resist Ma Chao's attack at all, but the piece of armor killed by Ma Chao was not left, and the members of Shan Yuting, who were protected by the guards, were all captured by Ma Chao.

At the same time, the rest of the troops were progressing smoothly, and although they encountered a lot of resistance, they were all small groups of troops, and they were quickly killed in the face of the surprise attack of the large army. The people of Xianbei fled one after another, and they were very embarrassed.

A night of unavoidable fierce battles, hundreds of thousands of Xianbei people in the face of Zhang Yan's attack of more than 20,000 people, seemed helpless, the Xianbei camp in Jiluo Mountain was completely destroyed, about 60,000 Xianbei corpses lying in the camp, the noble members of Shan Yuting were all captured, in addition, Zhang Yan and others also captured 30,000 Xianbei people, as well as 10,000 war horses, tens of thousands of cattle and sheep, it can be said that the harvest is quite rich.

In peacetime, the patrol team outside returned one after another, but in the face of Zhang Yan's army, they did not dare to fight, and finally fled to the northwest.

Zhang Yan did not stay here for long, and drove the captured population, war horses, cattle and sheep back quickly, for fear that the Xianbei people would organize an army again after a while and come to fight against them.

However, Zhang Yan was worried too much, the warriors of the Xianbei people all went to the area of Jinwei Mountain, and those who stayed behind were old and weak women and children, and they couldn't organize a decent army to fight against them. Otherwise, they wouldn't have succeeded so easily last night. Those Xianbei people who escaped by luck fled to the northwest, and in the area of Yanran Mountain further north, there is still a habitat for their survival, and there are more than 100,000 people who stayed there.

On the way back, from Zhang Yan onwards, everyone's hearts were happy, and no one was unhappy with the victory in this battle.

But there is only one exception, and that is Pang Tong.

Pang Tongyi frowned tightly on the road, his face was pale, as if he had something on his mind, but he wanted to say something.

He walked beside Zhang Yan and wanted to speak several times, but he was worried about disturbing Zhang Yan's Yaxing.

Zhang Yan walked in front, not paying any attention to Pang Tong behind him, for him, this victory was very impressive, at least worthy of his hard work of traveling thousands of miles.

At this time, Pang Tong finally couldn't help it, and suddenly said to Zhang Yan: "His Royal Highness King Yan! ”

Zhang Yan heard Pang Tong's voice behind him, so he asked, "Shiyuan, what's the matter?" ”

Pang Tong said: "Our army has attacked the Xianbei people and gained a lot, so we should be happy." However, I always had a doubt in my heart. ”

"What doubts?" Zhang Yan asked.

Pang Tong said: "Now that the Xianbei people are fighting against Hu Yanhui's coalition army in Jinwei Mountain, why doesn't His Royal Highness King Yan take advantage of the victory and lead the victorious army to Jinwei Mountain, unite Hu Yanhui's Western Regions coalition army, and jointly flank the Xianbei people?" In this way, the Xianbei people have been hit hard and their strength has weakened, so they will not be able to threaten the Han in the future. ”

Zhang Yan said: "Whether it is the Xianbei people or the Huns, the confrontation between their two armies, who wins and who loses, is closely related to us, I also want to lead the army to continue to the north, but our strength is limited, we can only accept it when we see it." If we want to completely eradicate the threat of the Xianbei people, we can't reach it for the time being with our current strength, but this victory can teach the Xianbei people a lesson, let them know that our big man is not easy to mess with, let them be honest with me. The purpose of my westward expedition is to clear all obstacles on the Silk Road, and the elimination of the Xianbei people is secondary. Therefore, who wins and who loses between the Western Regions Alliance and the Xianbei people is not so important to us for the time being. ”

After Pang Tong listened, he asked: "But if the Xianbei people are not eliminated, it is impossible to stop the border troubles." If the Xianbei people defeat the Western Regions Alliance, they will turn around against us to avenge the fall of the mountain. His Royal Highness King Yan must not underestimate the power of revenge! If the Western Regions Alliance defeats the Xianbei people, then Hu Yanhui will lead the army eastward and compete with the Xianbei people for the overlord on the prairie, so that the Xianbei people will not have time to deal with the Han Dynasty, even if there is hatred, but Hu Yanhui wants to occupy the territory they rely on for survival, and to drive them away completely, they will definitely deal with Hu Yanhui first, and then come to take revenge. His subordinates thought that if His Royal Highness King Yan did not grasp this opportunity in time, once Hu Yanhui's coalition army was defeated by the Xianbei people, then the Xianbei people would have no competitors on the grassland, and they would do their best to deal with our Han, and there might be continuous border troubles at that time. Now although our army is small in number, but it is an elite division, His Royal Highness King Yan only needs to send part of the troops, arrive at Jinwei Mountain, get in touch with Hu Yanhui, tell them that the rear of the Xianbei people has been attacked by our Han, and stimulate the fighting spirit of the Western Regions coalition army, let them fight bloody battles with the Xianbei people, our army does not need to directly participate in the war. ”

After Zhang Yan listened to Pang Tong's words, he immediately reined in his horse, stopped on the side of the road, and after pondering for a while, he felt that what Pang Tong said was not unreasonable. So he turned his head to look at Pang Tong, but saw that Pang Tong's eyes were full of hot gaze, expectant gaze.

"Shi Yuan, if I send you to get in touch with Hu Yanhui and help Hu Yanhui defeat the Xianbei people, are you willing to go?" Zhang Yan suddenly spoke.

After hearing this, Pang Tong hugged his fists very decisively and said: "My subordinates are willing to serve." (To be continued......)
