Nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses of Tuyuhun left the city from the west gate and north gate of Xiqiang City, and quickly fled to the northwest.

However, at this moment, in the northwest direction, the elite of the 100,000 Jin army had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw the Tuyuhun army rushing, they immediately launched a fierce attack on it.

However, there were still 50,000 Tuyuhun troops who followed Sha Xi to break through the blockade of the Jin cavalry and fled to the northwest, while the remaining soldiers and horses were completely dispersed and were being pursued by the Jin army.

The 100,000 main cavalry of the Jin army achieved the brilliant results of destroying nearly 50,000 enemies, and the nearly 70,000 soldiers and horses led by Thunderstorm also entered the Xiqiang city very smoothly and completely took the city as their own.

After entering Xiqiang City, Hua An did not order to continue to pursue the fleeing Tuyuhun army, but let his troops immediately set up camp, intending to rest for the night, and then pursue in the direction of the Tuyuhun army's rout.

In the following days, Hua An personally led the main army under his command, all the way to attack the city of Luochi, pursued the Tuyuhun soldiers and horses, and together with Song Cheng's army, captured all the cities in the east of Tuyuhun, and left some soldiers and horses to be responsible for the garrison, and the main army continued to march towards Bailan, the capital of Tuyuhun.

At this time, Tuyuhun King Sha Xi has withdrawn to Bailan, all the soldiers and horses under his command are only 40,000, and the two Jin troops have nearly 300,000, and they have been killed from the east and northeast, the Jin army has a secret weapon to attack the city, for this reason, even if Bailan City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is impossible to block the attack of the Jin army, and the end of stubborn resistance is only a dead end, but if it surrenders, there is no good result, so there is no way out for Sha Xi, it seems that there is no other possibility except for dying in battle.

"Your Majesty, Bailan City is the last fortified city of Tuyuhun in me, if Bailan City is broken by the Jin army. I'm completely finished. ”

"The main force of the Jin army has approached Bailan, and Bailan City has been broken by the Jin army, it is only a matter of time, Wang. We must evacuate as soon as possible. ”

"The Jin army is pressing forward step by step, where do we have a way to retreat."

"Do you want us to retreat into the Western Regions?"

All the Tuyuhun generals and ministers shouted in a mess, obviously, at this moment of national crisis. Everyone was confused and didn't know how to get through the crisis.

Tuyuhun King Shaxi is very bad in his heart, he has begun to regret it, he feels that he should not take the initiative to attack Liangzhou of the Great Jin, but should surrender earlier, so that it is possible to save his life, and now, the Great Jin has invaded the depth of Tuyuhun, and he will inevitably be punished if he wants to surrender. He was even executed for not being forgiven, but there is no regret medicine in the world, and regret at this moment is useless, it can only increase sadness.

"Report, Your Majesty, in recent days, the Khotanese army has successively attacked more than a dozen cities in the western part of my Tuyuhun, and the front of the army is directed at Bailan." Just when Sha Xi was extremely depressed, more unfavorable news came.

At this moment, nearly 300,000 Jin troops were pressing forward step by step. It has already caused tremendous pressure on Tuyuhun, and now, Khotan has come from the west to kill, and it is on the basis of this huge pressure. It added a little more pressure, which made Tuyuhun even more overwhelmed.

"Your Majesty, Chi Shun, the king of Khotan, is really a brute, seeing that our army has been defeated frequently, and there are not many soldiers and horses left, he actually captured more than ten cities in my Tuyuhun in a row. It really doesn't make sense. A Tuyuhun general said angrily.

"Your Majesty, the Khotanese army is only 20,000, and the Jin army has nearly 300,000, our army can't hold Bailan at all, so it is better to attack Khotan, and enter the Western Regions by the way of Khotan, and find a position where the Jin forces cannot reach, and re-establish Tuyuhun." A Tuyuhun courtier said.

The king of Tuyuhun, Sha Xi, was angry, listened to the words of everyone, and said loudly: "Send the order, gather men and horses to march west, and prepare to exterminate the Khotanese army, even if this king loses Tuyuhun, he will kill the king of Khotan." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." All the Tuyuhun generals responded loudly.

Obviously, Sha Xi and all the Tuyuhun generals under his command are very dissatisfied with the king of Khotan, and besides, the Khotanese soldiers and horses are much weaker than the Great Jin, and they have a great chance of winning when attacking the Khotanese army, and they can vent their grievances about the continuous defeat for several days.

After some preparations, Tuyuhun 40,000 soldiers and horses evacuated the capital Bailan, and marched west in the direction of Khotan.

In a grassland in the west of Tuyuhun, the king of Khotan and his command of 20,000 troops are camping, in recent days, the speed of the king of Khotan has obviously accelerated a lot, and the reason why Wei Chishun suddenly attacked Tuyuhun vigorously is because the spies he sent out have obtained accurate information, the Jin army of nearly 30 main forces, has beaten the main force of Tuyuhun to the ground, now, Tuyuhun only tens of thousands of soldiers and horses left, the force has become extremely weak, and may be wiped out by the Jin army at any time.

In this case, in order to show that he was actively attacking Tuyuhun and forming a good response to the Jin army, Wei Chishun naturally wanted to accelerate his advance in the direction of Bailan City, and try his best to meet the main force of the Jin army in the direction of Bailan City, so as to satisfy the Great Jin and Hua'an.

Yu Chishun's wishful thinking can be described as very shrewd, and his daughter Yu Chilan is even more happy, after all, as long as she meets with the Jin army, she can meet the person who thinks about it, and she is naturally in a very good mood.

"Father, I heard that the main force of the Jin army is about to arrive in Bailan City, so how far is it from Bailan City?" Yu Chilan looked at her father, Yu Chishun, and asked in a low voice.

Wei Chishun naturally guessed his daughter's careful thoughts, and said with a grin: "Look at your hurry, there are still eighty miles?" ”

"Eighty miles, if you march in a hurry, you can reach it in one day, right! Father. Yu Chilan said in a loud voice.

Yu Chishun smiled, stroked the back of Yu Chilan's head, and teased: "It's really a big girl!" My Lan'er now has a sweetheart, haha! ”

"Father." Yu Chilan snorted and turned his head to the side.

Looking at his daughter's shy little appearance, Wei Chishun felt very happy, and said softly: "Lan'er! Do you really have a crush on that person? ”

"Who is my father talking about?" Yu Chilan pretended not to know, but her expression was very intoxicated.

Yu Chishun said with a smile: "Lan'er, don't be shy, my father can see that you like the Northern King of the Great Jin Dynasty, yes or no?" ”

"Father." Yu Chilan pursed her lips shyly.

"Haha! Beauty loves heroes, there's nothing wrong with this, what's shy, and my father is not an outsider, besides. I'm about to join Dajin in Khotan, and in the future, we will all be a family, aren't we! Wei Chishun said happily.

"Does my father think he's a hero too?" Yu Chilan asked wryly.

Wei Chishun nodded. Zhengse said: "Of course, the Northern King of the Great Jin Dynasty recovered a large area of lost territory, and opened up the territory, and successively established the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate and the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate, which is enough to be proud of the others." Such a character is naturally the most powerful hero in the world, and if my Lan'er can marry such a person, I will be relieved. After speaking, he looked at Yu Chilan.

Seeing her father say this, Yu Chilan was very happy, and said coquettishly: "Father, is what you said true? Do you really hope that Lan'er can be entrusted to him? ”

"When did Father lie to you, my baby Lan'er." Wei Chishun looked extremely loving.

"Great." Yu Chilan happily danced happily on the grassland.

Watching his daughter dancing happily on the grassland, Wei Chishun was in a good mood and stood aside to admire.

"Newspaper, my lord. Oh no, 40,000 soldiers and horses of Tuyuhun are coming here. Just when Wei Chishun's father and daughter were in a good mood, the terrible news came that the Tuyuhun army was about to kill.

As soon as he heard that the 40,000 Tuyuhun army was surging and killing, Wei Chishun immediately had a terrible scene in his mind, after all, he had fought with the Tuyuhun army, and understood that the combat strength of the Tuyuhun army was not under Khotan, besides, at this moment, he only had 20,000 soldiers and horses under his command. However, the Tuyuhun army has 40,000 people, and the difference in strength is doubled, and the pressure of fighting can be imagined.

Yu Chilan, who was dancing happily, after hearing this terrible news. I fell carelessly, but fortunately, I was not injured and quickly got up.

"Father, the 40,000-strong army of Tuyuhun is here, and our army must immediately meet the enemy." Yu Chilan Zhengse suggested.

Wei Chishun frowned and shook his head. Zhengse said: "The Tuyuhun army is twice the size of our army, and suddenly it kills our army, how can our army have a chance of winning, we must retreat immediately, otherwise the whole army will be annihilated." ”

"Father, will retreating Tuyuhun let us go? Only by relying on the big battalion to block the Tuyuhun army can we have vitality, and the Jin army is within a hundred miles at the farthest, maybe we will soon reinforce our army. Wei Chilan opposed the retreat and demanded a frontal battle.

Wei Chishun said anxiously: "The enemy is strong and I am weak, and I am afraid that we will be wiped out before we can wait for reinforcements from the Jin army, so we must think of a way." ”

Just as Wei Chishun's father and daughter were discussing, all the generals of Khotan rushed over after hearing the news and demanded immediate preparations for war.

Wei Chi was happy and said loudly: "Order the whole army to assemble immediately and rely on the battalion to prepare to meet the enemy." ”

"Yes, my lord." The Khotanese generals shouted their orders and immediately began to reorganize their armies.

When Khotan set up camp, the rangers were deployed within a radius of ten miles around, and for this reason, when they learned that the Tuyuhun soldiers and horses were coming, there was still a lot of time to prepare, and after the Khotanese soldiers and horses were all ready, the Tuyuhun soldiers and horses just arrived at the periphery of the Khotanese camp.

Looking at the black pressure of the Tuyuhun army, the king of Khotan and the soldiers under his command felt very nervous, they had fought with Tuyuhun, and understood the combat power of the main army of Tuyuhun, although the camp can provide some defense, but the defense that can be provided is very limited, compared with the city, the defense of the camp is very weak, and can not play a great role.

However, if the Khotanese army chooses to evacuate, it may not be able to avoid the pursuit of the Tuyuhun army, after all, many of the materials necessary for survival are in the camp, if you don't take it away, half of the army will starve to death, if you take it away, one is too late, the other is that the marching speed is greatly slowed down, and it will soon be caught up by the Tuyuhun army, so as to suffer greater losses, so the wisest choice for the Khotanese army is to rely on the weak defense of the battalion, and the Tuyuhun army to the death, in order to wait for the Jin army reinforcements to kill from behind.

The battle was about to begin, Wei Chishun calmed down his nervousness, looked at his daughter Yu Chilan, and said: "Lan'er, after the fight starts, you lead a hundred Khotanese warriors and fifty Jin troops to leave the camp and go to the Jin army camp for help, and my father will stick here." ”

"No, father, Lan'er will stick with you." Yu Chilan shook her head and said disagreeably.

Wei Chishun stared at Yu Chilan, shook his head and said: "No, our army may not be able to hold out for long, you must go to the Jin army for help, this is the only hope of our army, and only if you leave, my father can fight with the Tuyuhun army with peace of mind and be obedient." ”

Yu Chilan hesitated, nodded, and agreed.

In fact, Wei Chishun had a hunch in his heart that the probability of being able to hold the camp in a bloody battle with the Tuyuhun army was very small, and it was very likely that he would be annihilated by the whole army.

Outside the Khotanese camp, the Tuyuhun army was ready to attack, and it only needed to give an order to launch an attack immediately.

"Your Majesty, the Khotanese army is arrayed in the camp, and it seems that it is preparing to fight our army to the death." A Tuyuhun general said loudly.

"Your Majesty, our army is twice the size of the Khotanese army, as long as we launch an attack at this moment, we will definitely be able to break through the Khotanese camp and wipe out all the Khotanese soldiers and horses." Another Tuyuhun general said loudly.

Broken Xi grinned and ordered loudly: "The whole army will attack immediately, and all the Khotanese people will be killed." ”

......With the sound of the horn, the 40,000 troops of Tuyuhun launched an attack on the Khotanese camp.

Seeing the black and oppressive Tuyuhun cavalry rushing over, the Khotanese soldiers all had a chill in their backs, and they all clenched their weapons in their hands and waited for the generals' orders.

"Arrows, arrows." After the Tuyuhun cavalry came into range of the crossbows, the Khotanese generals gave the order to shoot.

Suddenly, the Khotanese soldiers behind the arrow tower and the camp all bent their bows and arrows, and shot the arrows in their hands at the attacking Tuyuhun soldiers and horses.

Khotan's arrow rain naturally caused some damage to the attacking Tuyuhun army, but it could not stop the offensive of the Tuyuhun cavalry, and soon, 40,000 Tuyuhun cavalry rushed to the periphery of the Khotanese camp and hit the camp made of wooden fences.

The Khotanese soldiers used their spears to block the impact of the Tuyuhun cavalry, and once again inflicted great casualties on the Tuyuhun cavalry. (To be continued.) )
