Yeluhong's tone was solemn and he spoke very sadly.
"But the prince died gloriously. This is the best destination for our wolf warriors. I am proud of him!"
Yeluhong said reluctantly.
The clan leaders below were very moved, and the resentment in their hearts disappeared a lot, especially the Hun Hale.
During the daytime battle, the Huns were at the forefront and suffered the most deaths. He felt that Yeluhong was using him as cannon fodder.
But now it seems that the Dan clan's casualties are also very heavy, even the prince and the general were killed.
"Don't worry, Chanyu, we will definitely avenge the prince!"
Zhuo Lie's tone was firm, and other clan leaders echoed: "We must take revenge!"
Yeluhong asked: "How many warriors, cattle and sheep have been lost by each of your tribes, and how many warriors are still available? Tell them all to the wise man. I will formulate a counterattack plan."
Each ministry reported its losses to Abuji, and the final total showed a total loss of more than 180,000 yuan.
In addition to those who died in the battle at Yanmenguan City, there were many who escaped halfway.
The fighting during the day was so fierce that they were frightened and fled with their cattle and sheep along the way.
"Chanyu, we still have 150,000 soldiers."
Abuji counted last and estimated the highest number.
Yeluhong's face was solemn. One hundred and fifty thousand soldiers were definitely not enough. There were about one hundred thousand soldiers and horses at Yanmen Pass, and they no longer had an advantage in numbers.
"Gather some more troops from each of your ministries, and we will meet at Ahbo."
The chiefs of each tribe had their own doubts, but they could not refuse, so they had to get up and go back to gather their tribesmen.
The wise kings Yeluxiong and Yelusu also wanted to get up and leave, but Yeluhong asked them to stay alone.
"Your losses are minimal, so you don't have to go back. Just stay here."
The ones who suffered the biggest losses this time were the Huns and then the Dans.
Yelvxiong, the Xian king of the left, suffered the least loss, and the strength of the Xian king of the right was also preserved.
In comparison, Yeluhong, a Shanyu of the wolf tribe, was outnumbered.
Yeluhong was worried that he could not suppress the two princes, so he left them alone.
Yeluxiong said: "Chanyu, we still have many warriors on the left. I can go back and call them over."
Yeluhong said coldly: "No need, you still have 50,000 soldiers, which is enough."
Yeluxiong knew that he was being suspected, so he had no choice but to agree. Yelusu did not dare to say anything and had no choice but to obey the order.
"You go with me. I will send a general to lead the soldiers under your command."
This is a disguised form of house arrest for the two of them.
"As you command!"
Neither of them objected.
"You guys go out."
The wise kings left and right came out of the tent, and the wise man Abuji said: "Chanyu, I still say what I said, please ask Xixia for help. Long Chengen is full of tricks, and we are no match."
Yeluhong also figured it out. Although Xixia was annoying, Long Chen was more difficult to deal with. The most important thing right now was to deal with Long Chen.
"Send an envoy to Xixia and ask Imperial Master Kongji to send reinforcements. Tell Imperial Master Kongji that there is an urgent need!"
Abu Ji immediately sent an envoy and rushed to Xixia at starry night.
The Capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Daming Palace.
The woman was sitting on the phoenix chair, discussing military and state affairs with the ministers. Di Yuwei and Di Xingwan were standing in the hall, the six ministers were standing in their respective positions, and Di Luoxi had already gone to Linjiang Town to guard.
"My dear friends, is there anything else you want to discuss?"
The ministers exchanged words in low voices and all said no.
"Okay, let's retreat!"
The empress got up and prepared to return to the inner court, and the ministers also prepared to leave the court and return home.
At this time, a messenger rushed out of the hall, carrying a baggage on his back, and shouted: "Your Majesty, report on the battle of Yanmen Pass!"
Hearing that the battle report at Yanmen Pass had arrived, the ministers in the DPRK stopped and waited.
"Three days ago, the third princess and General Long defeated the barbarians and killed the barbarian prince Yelu Guang. The head is here."
The empress sat down again, and Yingfeng received the battle report and presented it to the empress.
The empress quickly opened it and said with great joy: "Three days ago, the barbarian Chanyu Yeluhong gathered an army of 300,000 to besiege Yanmen Pass. Lingyi and Long Chengen joined forces to kill 150,000 enemies, beheaded the prince Yeluguang, and captured the general Ke'ele.
.”
The messenger took off the baggage and opened the box. Inside was Yeluguang's head.
All the ministers congratulated:
"Congratulations to Your Majesty for defeating the barbarians, God bless the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"General Long is invincible in every battle. He first killed Jingtian Lie and then defeated the barbarians. He is truly our fierce general of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"The third princess has made great achievements this time."
Di Yuwei and Di Xingwan were extremely envious, but they also felt a little gloating about their misfortune, especially Di Xingwan.
Di Xingwan thought to himself: Third sister has tasted the sweetness this time, and she will definitely fight to the death with fourth sister.
The empress was very happy and said: "Yingfeng proposed the decree, the Long Family Army and the Yanmen Pass garrison all commended him, and Long Chengen gave him the jade belt."
Yingfeng bowed and said, "Wei minister accepts the order."
The empress said happily: "Okay, let's disperse the court."
Xingqing City in Western Xia.
Ma Fang took several eunuchs into the side hall. King Shi Le was watching two Nanliang women singing and dancing, and there were several musicians playing beside them.
"Kings."
Shi Le waved his hand, and the musicians and dancers left the room.
"Caught?"
"Caught, the heads of Jing Feng, Old Taijun, and Sun Hongyan are here."
The eunuch came up behind him and opened the box. There were three human heads inside.
Shi Le nodded slightly and asked, "Where are the casualties?"
Ma Fang replied: "Jingfeng engaged in a trapped beast fight, Shi Ming was seriously injured, and Tie Yaozi lost 130 people."
In order to protect his family, Jingfeng fought against the Fudo Ming King Shi Ming and the Yaksha Ming King Mazun. His secret guard Squid and others also fought to the death, causing a great blow to Tie Yaozi.
"Just kill him!"
Shi Le said coldly, and Ma Fang led the eunuch out of the side hall.
As soon as I went out, I saw Monk Kongji coming in.
"Kings."
"Master, please sit down."
Monk Kongji sat next to Shi Le and said, "Yelühong's envoy is here."
Shi Le frowned and had a bad feeling.
"Failed again?"
"Yes, Yeluhong gathered 300,000 troops from the grassland to besiege Yanmen Pass, but Long Chengen killed 150,000 of them. Prince Yeluguang was killed, and General Ke'ele surrendered."
Shi Le stood up and walked a few steps, and said a little irritably: "Who is this Long Chengen? Why is no one his opponent?"
The barbarian cavalry was still very powerful, and Shi Le knew this very well, especially when it came to crushing them in terms of strength. With three times the strength, half of them were actually killed in the end.
Even Yeluhong's son was beheaded, and General Ke'ele actually surrendered.
"What do the Imperial Masters plan to do?"
Shi Le asked Monk Kongji.
"Yelühong wants to ask a poor monk for help."
Monk Kongji was debating in his heart whether he should go there in person and confront Long Chen head-on.
"The Imperial Master wants to go in person?"
Shi Le could see Kong Ji's thoughts.
"The poor monk wants to go there, but is worried that there are too many constraints."
If Kongji takes action, it means that Eastern Zhou and Xixia are facing each other, and it's probably hard to say which side of the Tianxiahui will be on the other side.
In fact, there is another point. Monk Kongji is a little afraid of Long Chen.
They had a fight at the Jade Buddha Pass, but Kongji didn't take advantage. Mojie went to the Great Zhou Dynasty as an envoy, but was brainwashed.
Kong Ji felt that Long Chen was very difficult to deal with. If he went to the grassland and failed, it would be a big loss.
"This king does not agree with you going to the grassland. Yeluhong has not been very obedient in recent years. If the national teacher is in danger, he may not do his best."
Shi Le could feel the change in Yeluhong's attitude. In the past, he was very happy to fight horses, cattle and sheep, but now he was dragging his feet and making excuses.
Kong Ji nodded and said, "The poor monk will send someone over."
Shi Le agreed: "The national preceptor can give instructions face-to-face."
Monk Kongji also agreed. He left the palace and returned to Zhaoti Temple to make arrangements.
