Liu Kun failed to control the situation, and the soldiers became chaotic. Liu Jie was not reluctant to fight, so he took this opportunity to break through the siege with his army and kill them.
He had no intention of quarreling with Liu Kun, a fool. What was the benefit of killing the Jinyang army? It was a waste of effort and he lost men, so the usually brutal Huns army just opened their mouths and abandoned the Jinyang army and ran away.
When Liu Kun saw this, his heart went cold. Liu Congruo was hiding inside, and the siege that Zhao Hanzhang had arranged for two months was broken. The two months' efforts were completely defeated!
Moreover, if Liu Cong escapes alive, there will be endless troubles.
Liu Kun could think of how he would be written about himself in the history books of later generations, so he turned his horse around without thinking, tried his best to stabilize the situation, and led his troops to pursue.
Linghu Sheng and Ji Dan also felt chilled. They also knew that they couldn't let the Huns run away like this, but they also knew that they couldn't chase him in such a panic, so they stopped the angry and anxious Liu Kun, one to comfort him, and the other to
Then go and reorganize the army.
The knife in Linghu Sheng's hand was replaced by a riding crop, and he whipped several soldiers who were wandering around without mercy, and shouted loudly: "One tithe team will meet, look for the leader, the leader of the team will meet, if the leader and the team leader
If someone is killed in battle, the one with the most seniority will be on top. If there are deserters, they will be killed without mercy; if there are any rebels, they will be killed without mercy!"
The generals also rode horses and ran among them, organized their own troops, and soon found all their captains. The captains looked for leaders, and the soldiers looked for leaders. They quickly reorganized the army. At this time, the Huns had already fled.
Going far away...
Liu Kun was anxious, and Ji Dan could only advise him, "The first battle is not going well. If we rush forward rashly at this time, we may fall into the second trap, and our morale will be low, which will disadvantage us in the battle."
Ji Dan suggested, "When we reorganize the army, we can slowly pursue the enemy. The Xiongnu army is retreating and will not dare to fight. We only need to drive them until they are tired, and then encircle and strangle them."
So Ji Dan's suggestion was that they need to look at the map to see if they can divide their forces to attack. It would be best if one group can go around to their front. He also suggested that Liu Kun go to Zhao Hanzhang for help.
"This matter is important. We have lost the opportunity. Please ask the envoy and the general for help."
Liu Kun was very reluctant to ask Zhao Hanzhang for help. After all, they were making a bet. They had agreed that if he won, he would stay in Jinyang, but...
Liu Kun hesitated and said nothing. When Ji Dan saw him, he threw a mountain on his shoulder and said: "If Liu Cong hides in this army and lets him escape, the consequences will be endless."
Linghu Sheng also ran up. He was more upright and asked Liu Kun, "Are you going to be a sinner for the ages?"
Everyone knows that Liu Cong is ambitious, and he is the emperor of the Huns. The emperor will not surrender until he dies, and the country will not be destroyed. As long as he is around, the Huns may come back even if he is the only one left.
Because of the Xiongnu, several wars in the Central Plains resulted in countless casualties among the people. Zhao Hanzhang insisted on using troops against the Xiongnu even when drought and locust plagues were so serious. He almost mobilized the entire country to achieve the current good situation, in order to wipe out the Xiongnu in one fell swoop and let
Central Plains, let the Northland have a relatively peaceful environment, so that the people will no longer suffer from the war. If Liu Cong is let go because of Liu Kun, those who accompanied them may not only die to apologize, but also be recorded in the annals of history.
He has been reviled for thousands of years.
They are like this, let alone Liu Kun.
Although Liu Kun was unhappy when he heard this, he still gritted his teeth and said, "Send someone to ask General Zhao for help."
This was what Linghu Sheng was waiting for, and he immediately sent a group of soldiers with fast legs and good kung fu to report the news and ask for help.
Ji Dan immediately hinted to Liu Kun to boost his morale and everyone would go after him.
The general who was part-time on the staff also encouraged Liu Kun first, "Don't worry, if he runs away, let him run for a while. The general has recaptured everything from here to Shanggu County. In just two or three quarters of an hour, they
Where can I run to?"
He said: "It's just like walking a dog. They run wildly in front of them, and when they get tired of running, we can chase them."
Liu Kun was in a better mood, and immediately spent half a quarter of an hour to boost his morale, and then led his army to pursue him.
For three-quarters of an hour, if a person ran as fast as he could, he could still run far away. At least for a moment and a half, Liu Kun didn't even see the buttocks of the Huns. He followed the tracks and was frightened all the way.
If Liu Cong was in the army and quietly left with some of his troops halfway, they would not be able to find any trace.
The more he thought about it, the more panicked Liu Kun became. He could already foresee how the history books would write about him, and he would become a sinner for the ages.
Ji Ping, who was ambushing 10,000 people in the southwestern foothills, heard the sound of the advancing army and immediately looked over. The scout also ran back panting and reported: "General, Liu Jie is coming. I took a humble look and saw that the army was stretching for a long time."
It's six or seven miles away, and there are at least 30,000 people there."
Ji Ping stared, "How much?"
The scout replied firmly: "Thirty thousand people."
Ji Ping quickly asked: "How is their morale in pretending to be?"
"There are not many injured, and they don't look embarrassed. They don't look like they have been defeated."
Ji Ping understood that Liu Kun was probably the loser.
Fifty thousand people were prepared to leave. Even if they couldn't surround all 30,000 people, they wouldn't be able to break out so quickly with so many people, right?
Ji Ping gritted his teeth and ordered the entire army to get ready. At the same time, he said to the scouts: "Go and notify Li Tianhe immediately and tell him to get ready immediately. I will send a group of people over."
The scout agreed and immediately went to notify Li Tianhe.
Li Tianhe knew as soon as he heard that Liu Kun was useless, and the pressure was all on them, but it didn't matter, he and Ji Ping were separated by four or five miles. This area was the best place for an ambush, and the other party had nowhere to escape, or
Retreat or break out from him. As long as he and Ji Ping penetrate the upper and lower openings, the Huns will not be able to escape.
However, 20,000 people were against 30,000. Even if it was an ambush in advance, he was still worried that there would be some leakage, so he said to his soldiers: "This is the closest place to General Beigong and General Zhao. Let me ask for help from these two generals."
This is to be sure.
The soldiers responded and took the order and left.
Ji Ping was also worried that there was a problem, so as soon as the scouts left, he sent his troops back to find Zhao Hanzhang for help.
As soon as the order was given, the Xiongnu army approached. Ji Ping kept holding down the formation and did not allow anyone to take action. He was counting the people and let about two thousand people pass. He waved his hand and shouted loudly: "Hit!"
At the same time, there was a roar, and a fireworks screamed into the sky and exploded. The soldiers who were ambushing on both sides immediately dropped the stones and rolling logs that had been prepared...
The archers stood on the edge of the hillside, constantly nocking arrows and shooting...
Liu Jie didn't expect that there was an ambush here, and his eyes were about to burst. He immediately led his troops into the forest to kill the enemy. When bows and arrows were fired at this place, his soldiers swept down the flying arrows and said to him: "General
Let’s go!”
Liu Jie: "More than 20,000 people are at the rear. How can I leave them alone?"
It's not that he is very loving, but that this is all his wealth. If something happens to his father, this will be his family property. The more he takes away, the better off he will be in the future.
So Liu Jie was reluctant to give up.
"There will always be a time when all the stones and logs will be lost. I will wait for them to rush down. I will kill the enemy with all the soldiers. I will not lose any of them."
