Ke Wu Neng's throat was so dry that he was about to smoke, so he asked his subordinates to bring him the last bag of water. After drinking it, he felt it was not enough to quench his thirst, so he asked: "Is there any more?" "The big Chanyu is gone. This is the last bag." "Look for it in other places to see who else is there. I will give it to this Chanyu. When he enters the city, I will reward him with ten." Beauty, give him a powerful position." Ke Wu could believe that a brave man would be rewarded, but he did not expect that under such conditions, water would become a precious thing and he would rather keep it for himself. , and are unwilling to contribute. Human nature is selfish, and the Xianbei people demonstrate selfishness thoroughly. Half an hour later, Ke Wuneng's guard came back, with his head drooped and his lips chapped. He knelt beside Ke Wuneng and said, "I'm sorry to say that no one in the army has water anymore." "A bunch of trash!" Ke Wuneng cursed. On the Gobi, 200,000 Xianbei people were scattered like a piece of loose sand. They used their own clothes to block the sun. Some even set up temporary tents. Everyone gathered together and looked listlessly at the people nearby. Thang Long City, their former habitat, has now become their nightmare. There is only one gate in the entire Shenglong City, and the city is circular. There are quite few residents in the city. To be precise, this city is a military fortress, the frontline of the Xianbei people, and where Shan Yuting is located. place. But the Xianbei people all live further north, scattered in places with fertile water and grass, and live a comfortable life. Another very important reason why Lin Lin was able to enter Shenglong City was that tens of thousands of Han people were imprisoned in the city. They were captured slaves of the Xianbei people and made armor and weapons for them to use in battle. Last night Lin Lin¡¯s troops pretended to be from Xianbei. After breaking open the city gate, he killed all the Xianbei militants in the city, opened the prison and released the detained Han craftsmen, so that Lin Lin could feel confident. Just when the Xianbei figures outside Shenglong City were like a pile of scattered sand, Lin Lin ordered someone to appear on the tower with a bucket filled with clean water. They were arranged separately and stood in a straight line on the city wall. Lin Lin blew the whistle towards the Xianbei people outside the city, and then shouted loudly: "Xianbei soldiers, are you all thirsty? I see how thirsty you are, and I feel really uncomfortable. I can't bear to see you again. This continues, so I came up with a good idea. As long as you are willing to surrender, I will give you water to fill your stomach. What do you think after hearing this? , but no one moved, but many people began to lick their lips with their tongues, and some put their hands between their necks and scratched their thirsty throats that were about to smoke with their fingers. Ke Wu could see Lin Lin shouting like this, and he was afraid that his people would appear in trouble, so he said: "Send the order. Anyone who dares to surrender will be killed without mercy!" "Promise!" At this time, Zuo Danghu came over. He came to Ke Wuneng and said: "Da Shanyu, if this continues, it will be detrimental to our army. It is better to retreat temporarily and find a place to rest elsewhere. There is a dark place about thirty miles away from here. As long as the water is dug out, you can drink it." "Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Ke Wu Neng said excitedly, "Do you know the direction of the underground river?" Zuo Danghu nodded and said, "Go back. Da Shanyu said. I know everything." Ke Wuneng said: "Very good, you can take the ones with horses to find the water source, and those without horses will stay here and continue to consume with the Chinese army. , must not make any more mistakes, and bring everyone's water bags. After filling all the water bags, we will return here, and then change the next group of people to drink water. Wait until night, we will go to Shenglong "Why wait until night?" "Idiot, it's so hot during the day, do you want to kill them?" "Yes, I understand, I will take people to find the water source." After being able to negotiate with Zuo Danghu, Zuo Danghu left here with those who had horses. With this departure, about 70,000 to 80,000 people left. The remaining ones without horses could only sit here and waste away. . When Lin Lin saw that the Xianbei people had left 70,000 to 80,000 people, he laughed and said to himself: "Sima Yi's guess is indeed correct. This is the only way to defeat the Xianbei people." He won't go either. No matter what, he just shouted loudly, poured water on himself, and took a cold bath. The Xianbei people looked at him with horror. After another half an hour, some Xianbei people finally couldn't bear it anymore. They dropped their weapons and ran quickly to the gate of Shenglong City, shouting: "I surrender, give me water.""I don't want to die here" However, before the Xianbei man could get to the place, he was shot through the heart with an arrow from behind and was killed directly. After the other Xianbei people looked at it, they didn't dare to move. Lin Lin looked at it. , people used ropes to deliberately place buckets filled with water on the Gobi outside the city wall, and people shouted loudly to surrender. Some weak-willed people rushed to Thang Long City with weapons. When running, one had to be on guard against arrows shot from behind, but more than 500 people ran over one after another, but no one reached their destination. They were all shot to death with arrows from behind, and their blood flowed out and dyed red. Lin Lin looked at the desert and said with a smile: "Interesting, our own people are starting to kill our own people. After a while, it seems that it will be time for our army to attack" The Xianbei people outside the city have begun to fall apart. Lin Lin saw the right moment and gathered 5,000 elite cavalry at the gate of the city. He continued to shout on the tower, waiting for the best opportunity to attack. , shoot to death without mercy! "Ke Wu Neng sent sentries to gallop back and forth among the Xianbei people, shouting the orders he had given. After the orders were given, everyone was a little worried. They looked at the water placed under the city wall, and then took a look at themselves. This kind of bird-like behavior makes people feel really angry, but they dare not say anything, just watching the water evaporate bit by bit by the heat wave. Maybe it can be tolerated if the time is short. After a long time, these Xianbei people couldn't stand it any longer. Instead of dying of thirst, they would rather risk their lives and fight. So, the initially lifeless crowd in the Xianbei people's camp began to discuss what to do. Survival. Ke Wu was sitting in the makeshift tent. The armor on his body was already hot from the scorching sun. He had no choice but to take it off when he saw the heat wave coming towards his face. He couldn't help but feel panic in his heart and just looked forward to it. Zuo Danghu hurried back with his people. As soon as they came back, he had water to drink. He glanced around and saw that his subordinates were talking about each other, so he called his guards and asked: " What are they talking about? " "not sure. I'll go listen. " "Well, go ahead. By the way, tell them that Zuo Danghu will be back soon and there will be water soon. Let them be patient for a while longer and not be fooled by the Chinese army. "Ke Wuneng was also afraid that something would happen, because the Xianbei people always put interests first, but their loyalty was very low. In addition, his position as a great chanyu came from a bad origin. He couldn't help but have many worries in his heart. In addition to the thousands of people around him, Except for the personal guards, the rest of the people were untrustworthy. Ke Wuneng's personal guards walked towards the crowd of Xianbei people who were talking about it, but when he passed by, the discussion had stopped, and many Xianbei people were replaced. The guard looked slightly angry. After all, the guard was used to being arrogant. At this time, he felt unhappy when he saw these people hating him. He hit a Xianbei man who blocked his way with the riding whip in his hand, and raised his riding whip in a proud manner. Authentic: "You untouchables, listen carefully to me, Zuo Dadanghu took people to get water. You will be back soon. You all wait patiently here for me. I will kill anyone who dares to move! " The Xianbei man who was whipped by his bodyguard was extremely angry. He stared at the bodyguard fiercely. Suddenly he couldn't bear it anymore. He instantly pulled out the saber from his waist and slashed the bodyguard with lightning speed. One of the guards was chopped to the ground, and the head rolled down. The Xianbei man stepped on it with his feet, raised the saber in his hand, and shouted loudly: "The Great Chanyu doesn't treat us as human beings, why should we?" He also wanted to work hard for him, kill the Great Chanyu, and then publicly introduce a successor to the Great Chanyu, but he went against it! " This Xianbei man shouted in public, and the Xianbei people sitting around him stood up in groups, drew their sabers, and rushed towards Ke Wuneng's bodyguards. " A hundred people responded to the call, and everyone sat at the front. Almost all the Xianbei people got up, shouted with all their strength, and rushed towards Ke Wuneng. What were they afraid of? However, Ke Wuneng was not afraid of these untouchables and quickly got on his horse. , shouted loudly: "Where are the Iron Cavalry! " Not far away from Ke Wuneng, a listless cavalry team immediately became nervous. The knights got on their horses one after another, waving their sabers and driving the horses to Ke Wuneng's side. There were twenty riders in a row, Although many battle armors were removed due to the hot weather, twenty war horses were still chained to the iron ropes and arranged neatly in rows. After hearing Ke Wuneng's order, they immediately rushed towards the rebellious Xianbei people. , ruthlessly trampling on these untouchables. This iron cavalry is Ke Wuneng's last asset. Although there are only a thousand cavalry, they are enough to withstand this wave of Xianbei untouchables who launched a rebellion.Behind Ke Wuneng, there were many people who had not launched a rebellion. Most of these people were relatives of Ke Wuneng. When they saw someone in front of them launching a rebellion, they immediately came to support him. As a result, more than 100,000 Xianbei people were instantly divided into two groups. One wave was the rebel army composed of lowly herdsmen, and the other wave was the aristocratic army composed of noble people. The two armies were just outside Shenglong City. The fighting started, and the scene was really spectacular. Rivers of blood flowed for a while, and corpses were everywhere. Lin Lin looked through the crack of the city gate, smiled, and then shouted: "Guo Huai!" "The general is here!" Guo Huai rode out and came to Lin Lin's side, clasping his fists in response. Lin Lin said happily: "The strategy you gave me is very effective. As a result, the pressure on our army has been reduced a lot. In order to show your contribution, I now promote you to the rank of Zuo Lieutenant of the Dragon Scale Army. After hearing this, Guo Huai's face was full of joy. He quickly jumped off his horse, knelt on the ground, and thanked him: "Thank you for your love, Your Majesty. I will definitely be devastated in the end." The Dragon Scale Army is the elite of Lin Lin's tent. There are five in total. The Thousand Cavalry has five battalions of captains: front, rear, left, right, and middle. Although they are only captains, their status is quite respected. They are direct descendants of Lin Lin. The treatment enjoyed is the same as that of a general. Lin Lin usually won battles, and most of the credit and spoils he gained were distributed to the Dragon Scale Army. How could Guo Huai be unhappy when he was awarded the title of Zuojun Lieutenant of the Dragon Scale Army? Lin Lin raised his hand. He said to Guo Huai: "Get on your horse and be ready. When they are almost done fighting, our army will attack again. The outcome will be decided in one battle." "No!" Guo Huai got on his horse and quietly guarded Lin Lin's left and right. He and the captains of the other four battalions nodded. ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away out of the Dragon Scale Army, the captain of the Zuo Army was unfortunately killed in the last battle, and there was a lack of someone in charge. At this time, Lin Lin discovered that there was someone like Guo Huai in his army, so he naturally had to pay more attention and promote him. The other four captains of the Longlin Army are all young generals, and most of them are relatives of famous generals in China. The former military captain Ma Dai is Ma Chao's cousin, the right military captain Gan Xiaoning is Gan Ning's son, and the latter military captain Zang Ainai is Zang Ai's cousin. Ba's son, Zhang Xiong, the lieutenant of the Central Military Academy, was Zhang He's eldest son, among others. There are still nine captains, or after famous generals. Or maybe he was related to a famous general, but Guo Huai was the only one who fought with swords and spears. He was the only one among the five captains and ten captains in the Dragon Scale Army who stood up and joined the ranks. It can be said that the Dragon Scale Army is the descendants of soldiers, either the generals' sons or the relatives of famous generals. Therefore, among all the armies of China, the Dragon Scale Army is the most famous. Lin Lin and others waited from noon to dusk. The Xianbei people outside were killing people in darkness. At first, it was not so fierce, and everyone was still talking. They can't bear each other. But in the end, the situation was completely out of control, and the battle between the two groups became more and more intense. In the evening, the sky is filled with sunset, and the Gobi desert outside the city is also a miserable red. The ground seems to be covered with a red carpet, forming a unified reflection with the red clouds on the horizon. Lin Lin watched every move of the enemy, and when he saw signs that the rebels were defeated, he immediately shouted: "Open the city gate!" With the order, the city gate was opened. Lin Lin held up Fang Tian's painted halberd and rode on the red halberd. The dragon and horse took the lead and rushed out of the city, like an arrow leaving the string. Ma Dai, Gan Xiaoning, Zang Ai, Zhang Xiong, Guo Huai and other five captains also shouted and started to charge forward with their cavalry, their shouts were like thunder. Ke Wu could see that the rebels had been surrounded by his own army. He was in high spirits when he suddenly saw Lin Lin leading his army to fight out of the city. He hurriedly shouted: "Kill into the city, fight into the city!" Under the leadership of Lin Lin, the scale army crashed into the noble army led by Ke Wuneng like a huge hammer with a bang. The attack was so menacing, and with the added strength and strength, the noble army could not resist it at all. , let alone entering the city, even resisting this wave of attacks is difficult. "Ma Dai, Gan Xiaoning, Zang Ai, Guo Huai, disperse!" Lin Lin shouted loudly. Ma Dai, Gan Xiaoning, Zang Ai, and Guo Huai were all familiar with Lin Lin's usual fighting style. They led a thousand cavalry scattered everywhere. After rushing into the local camp, there was a random collision, and corpses were everywhere in their path. Lin Lin led Lieutenant Zhang Xiong and a thousand cavalrymen like sharp knives directly into the hearts of the Xianbei people, destroyed the human wall surrounding the rebels, and then shouted loudly: "Anyone who surrenders to China must fight hard and fight with all his strength." Let's kill Ke Wuneng together, and we will be rewarded greatly after the war." After hearing this, the rebels all expressed their willingness to surrender. With the support of the Chinese army, all the rebels showed their bravery. The Xianbei people were originally a tired army, and Ke Wuneng was just relying on the large number of people. At this time, they had been fighting for a long time, with more than half of them dead and wounded, and they were exhausted. Once they encountered the Dragon Scale Army, they could not help butHe was unable to defeat the enemy and had to retreat backwards. Ke Wu could see the fierceness of the Dragon Scale Army and did not dare to resist it, so he immediately rode his horse and retreated with his followers. Seeing this, the other Xianbei people also gave up resistance and began to flee for their lives. But among the Xianbei people, only Ke Wu had horses and could wait for more than a thousand cavalry. The iron cavalry completely untied the iron chain and protected Ke Wu to escape far away. Lin Lin saw that Ke Wu was able to escape. Without saying a word, he shouted to Zhang Xiong: "Come with me, Chinese army!" Zhang Xiong said "promise" and followed Lin Lin with his men. The Dragon Scale Army's The other four captains stayed in place to hunt down the Xianbei people. At the same time, the Chinese troops in the city rode out one after another to help in the battle, giving the Xianbei people a final fatal blow. Ke Wu was able to escape quickly and looked behind him, but he saw Lin Lin leading his army in hot pursuit. In a panic, he immediately shouted: "Stop them!" So half of the bodyguard cavalry stayed to resist. Lin Lin was half protecting Ke Wu from leaving this place. Lin Lin Fangtian drew his halberd and the ground was stained with blood. Seeing that Ke Wuneng was about to run away, he became furious and shouted loudly: "Zhang Xiong. You are leading half of the men to fight here, and I am leading the others." Half of them went after Ke Wuneng." As soon as he finished speaking, his troops were divided into two. Lin Lin led five hundred cavalry to pursue him quickly, waving Fang Tian's painted halberd and shouted loudly: "Kei Wuneng, stop leaving!" Ke Wu could hear a loud shout coming from behind. At this time, he was already frightened. Captain Zuo took 90,000 cavalry to find the water source. As a result, he went there for a whole day and still did not come back. At this moment, how Ke Wu hoped that Captain Zuo could come back with his army. In this case, he There is hope of winning. "Ke Wu can stop!" Lin Lin was still chasing after him on horseback. The red dragon he sat on became more and more powerful, running like the wind, and soon he was far away from the five hundred dragon scale army behind him. The distance to the Xianbei people is getting closer and closer. Ke Wu could hear the sound much closer. Looking back, Lin Lin was about to catch up. He hurriedly shouted: "Shoot him to death, shoot him to death!" So his subordinates drew their bows and shot arrows. He shot randomly at Lin Lin. Lin Lin held Fang Tian¡¯s painted halberd tightly in his hand. He danced quickly and blocked many arrows. Immediately afterwards. He sat down and approached the Xianbei people. Fang Tian swung his halberd forward and stabbed a Xianbei person to death. "Ah¡ª¡ª" Lin Lin shouted loudly, like thunder from the sky, which made the Xianbei people feel deafening, and Fang Tian's painted halberd danced extremely strangely. Like an invisible sharp blade, before those Xianbei people could see clearly where the weapon came from, there was a bloody hole in their bodies, and several people fell off their horses one after another. The Xianbei people left more than a hundred cavalry to block Lin Lin, and Lin Lin started killing them randomly. He stabbed more than ten people to death. As he spoke, the five hundred dragon scale army cavalry behind him pursued them. After a random killing, they killed all the Xianbei people without leaving a single piece of armor behind. Lin Lin rushed to catch up, and Ke Wuneng was also smarter. He organized a hundred people into an echelon, leaving a hundred people at intervals to resist, and gradually distanced himself from Lin Lin. "Kill!" Lin Lin's armor was stained with blood, his whole body was red, and his whole body was like a god's help. The people in Xianbei who were killed were all frightened. In the end, they didn't even dare to resist, and they all dispersed like birds and beasts. "Drive!" Lin Lin rode the red dragon and killed the Xianbei queen who was blocking him. But when he saw Ke Wu was alone in front, he shouted with all his strength. The red dragon under him was also very obedient and increased his speed. Run forward. Ke Wuneng was already frightened out of his wits at this time. Seeing that the sunset was about to sink into the horizon, and there was a plague god chasing closely behind him, he was complaining secretly when he suddenly saw a large number of cavalry coming from directly ahead. He looked around and saw that the people coming directly in front were all Xianbei cavalry. Zuo Dadanghu was leading the way and galloping towards here quickly. His face was immediately filled with a layer of surprise, and he hurriedly waved his arms and shouted: "Save me!" However, as soon as he finished speaking, Ke Wuneng saw that behind Zuo Danghu were not all Xianbei cavalry, but people wearing uniforms. The Chinese cavalry in uniform uniforms, with a young general holding a broadsword, were chasing after them. Zuo Danghu was chasing him like a galloping horse and was running forward desperately. There was a look of panic on Zuo Dadanghu's face. There were only more than a hundred cavalry behind him, but behind him were more than ten thousand Chinese cavalry. He had no place to dodge after chasing him. At this time, he saw Da Chanyu galloping from the opposite side, behind him When he was also chased by the Chinese army, he knew that the situation was over. Ke Wuneng was even more surprised and did not dare to run forward any further. He hurriedly turned the horse's head and ran elsewhere. But when he turned the horse's head like this, he slowed down, and a group of fiery red horses galloped past behind him. Under the setting sun, the cold Fang Tian painted halberd directly penetrated his body from behind, killing him completely. The man was picked up and then thrown heavily onto the Gobi desert. His brain was immediately shattered by the fall. Coincidentally, at the same time, the leftMore than a hundred cavalrymen including Danghu were also overtaken by the Chinese army behind them. Arrows ruthlessly penetrated their bodies, and they all fell off their horses one by one. Lin Lin reined in the red dragon, holding Fang Tian's painted halberd. He stood there, looking at the cavalry coming in front. He was not Taishi Ci's subordinate. The leader was Zhang Fei's nephew Guan Ping, and he felt suspicious. Guan Ping led his army and galloped in front of Lin Lin. He didn't have time to dismount, so he raised his hands on the horse and said: "The general will bow to the general king." Lin Lin asked: "Where did General Guan come from?" "The general will follow Zhen. The Duke came to support the General King, and met General Tiger Wing's troops along the way. He followed the original plan and destroyed the Xianbei people who came to fetch water. He beheaded 20,000 people and captured 70,000 people. He pursued the remnant army all the way to this point, not wanting to meet Here comes the prince." Lin Lin heard this. Knowing that the reinforcements had arrived, he asked: "Where is the Duke of Zhen?" Guan Ping replied: "The Duke of Zhen and the general joined forces and were rushing towards Thang Long City. They brought a total of 50,000 reinforcements and the remaining The reinforcements are still on the way and will probably arrive in a few days." Lin Lin nodded. He said: "General Xianguanguan, since you are here, go to Shenglong City with me. The Xianbei people were defeated in this battle. I am afraid that they will never recover from this. After all the reinforcements arrive, our army will be divided into four groups and march directly to Xianbei." In the hinterland, Xianbei must be defeated in one battle." "No!" So. Guan Ping led more than 10,000 cavalrymen to follow Lin Lin back to Shenglong City. Along the way, he defeated the Xianbei people's defeated army and captured many Xianbei people. In the battle of Shenglong City, Lin Lin used the strategy proposed by Guo Huai to first cause the Xianbei people to fight among themselves, and then sent troops to attack the exhausted Xianbei people, defeating the many with less, and won a great victory. In this battle, more than 40,000 Xianbei people died due to internal strife. Only a few thousand people were beheaded by the Chinese army, and the rest were prisoners of war. Those who fled fled, and hundreds of thousands of Xianbei people were defeated. Subsequently, Lin Lin sent out light cavalry to defeat the defeated troops who fled everywhere. The Xianbei people who had lost their horses were tired, hungry and thirsty, and they were overtaken by the Chinese army after not running far. He also lost his fighting spirit and was willing to be a prisoner. He was driven into Shenglong City by the Chinese army and detained. Another part of the Xianbei people who participated in the rebellion were treated politely. That night, Lin Lin gathered all the more than 20,000 Xianbei people who participated in the rebellion and gave them food and drink. After the Xianbei people had had enough wine and food, Lin Lin led a burly Xianbei person up to the high platform and shouted to the Xianbei people below: "You are fighting for your freedom today, which is the bravery of the Xianbei people." Warriors. I, the Huaxia Kingdom, have always been very tolerant. As long as you are no longer enemies with the Huaxia Kingdom, we will be brothers. I believe you all know the warrior standing next to me. Today is his first one. Who among you can tell me the name of the man who cut off the head of the Shanyu guard and led you to resist? " "Mo Huluo!" The other Xianbei people shouted loudly when they saw the warrior standing with Lin Lin. road. "Yes, he is Mo Huluo. He is a brave and good warrior. I admire him very much. Ke Wuneng has been killed by me. In a few days, hundreds of thousands of reinforcements from China will be We will arrive here, and then we will launch an attack on the hinterland of Xianbei. But I know that it is really helpless for you to be enemies of the Huaxia Kingdom. The natural conditions where you live are harsh, there are no grasslands and water flows, and you only guard this great Gobi. Is there any way out? However, as long as you are willing to go back and persuade your tribesmen to surrender, I can guarantee that hundreds of thousands of you Xianbei people will live a happy life with ample food and clothing from now on. I will give you land to cultivate and will keep you. I will provide you with a piece of grassland to herd your horses, and I will also buy your horses, wool, sheepskins and other items. As long as you are willing, you can become a part of my Chinese nation. Come on, come and join the arms of my Chinese nation! Lin Lin said impassionedly. After hearing this, Mo Huluo was the first to kneel on the ground, gave Lin Lin the most noble courtesy, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I, Mo Huluo, have had enough of this hellish place, and I am willing to follow your Majesty to the death. I want to bring my people to join the Huaxia Kingdom, and I want to live a life of plenty of food and clothing. Please help me, your Majesty." After hearing this, the rest of the Xianbei people first looked at each other, and then knelt on the ground one after another, praying to join the Huaxia Kingdom. After hearing this, Lin Lin burst out laughing, directly helped Mo Huluo up, and said: "Having a warrior like you join us is a blessing to our country. We, our country, have a tolerant heart. Anyone is welcome to join our Chinese nation and become a member of our Chinese nation. Warrior Mo Huluo, please stand up." After Mo Huluo was lifted up by Lin Lin himself, he felt so sad that he immediately raised his arms and shouted: "For. To prevent our tribe from being devastated by war again, and in order for us to live a good life in the future, we will go back tomorrow to persuade our tribe, and then join together to join the Huaxia Kingdom.¡± The rest of the Xianbei people all came together.He nodded, and then raised his arms and shouted in response to Mo Huluo. Lin Lin then named Mo Huluo the captain of the Xianbei Protector, and abolished the slavery that had always existed among the Xianbei people, which won great support from these people who were lowly in Xianbei. That night, Duke Guo Jia, Tiger Wing General Tai Shici, Zuo Military Advisor Sima Yi and others led the army to Shenglong City, detained all the prisoners in one place, and joined forces with Lin Lin Shengli. In the early morning of the next day, Lin Lin gave Mo Huluo and more than 20,000 people horses, food and water, and sent them back to Xianbei to persuade the tribesmen to surrender. In accordance with the opinions given by Guo Jia, the Duke of Zhenguo, troops were sent to search for the remaining members of Ke Wuneng's party, and others were persuaded to persuade the captured Xianbei people. The remaining army took a complete rest in Shenglong City to tally the results of the battle and the dead soldiers. A few days later. Zhang Fei led the reinforcements to Thang Long City and was warmly welcomed by Lin Lin. Mo Huluo and others also brought their tribes to Thang Long City and asked to surrender to the Huaxia Kingdom. The few tribes that resisted were defeated by the Chinese army. After the Chinese army became stronger, In the face of his military power, he was also forced to ask for surrender, and the prisoners all surrendered. More than 800,000 Xianbei people completely surrendered to the Huaxia Kingdom, and Lin Lin wrote a victory report. Send someone to the imperial capital. The defeat of Xianbei forced the Wusun and Northern Xiongnu to no longer dare to be enemies of the Huaxia Kingdom, and demanded annexation and integration into the territory of the Huaxia Kingdom. "The Wei Yan army that stayed behind in the Western Regions has always been calm, and the Kushan Empire has never sent troops to cause trouble in the Western Regions. At this point, the three-month Western Expedition has come to an end, and the Chinese state has strengthened its deterrent power on the northwest frontier. The surrounding small countries were officially included in the territory of China. However, China¡¯s Western Expedition was victorious. But it planted the seeds of revenge for the Kushan Empire, which has been coveting the Western Regions. A contest between the two major military powers is about to officially begin The sky in June is like a child's face, changing at a moment's notice. At first the sun was shining brightly, but only for a short while. It was already covered with thick clouds. Lin Nan received a series of battle reports from the northwest. The last one was that the army led by Taishi Ci was surrounded on an unknown hill. After that, there was no news for several days. He was restless in the palace and rode to the west gate of Luoyang. He had just climbed up the tower and looked out, but he saw dark clouds looming overhead, as gloomy as his mood. Looking out, there is darkness in the wilderness, the sky and the earth seem to merge together, and nothing can be seen. On the vast plain, there is not a single light, and the earth seems to be sleeping deeply. However, the thunder was rumbling in the northwest direction, as if it was tightly surrounded by dense layers of thick clouds and couldn't struggle out. The sound was dull and slow. Lightning, in the far northwest sky, burns like a hula hula in the black clouds like broken cotton wool. Since the beginning of summer, this is the first time Lin Nan has seen such thunder and lightning weather. He can't help but start to feel a little worried. He is also uneasy and secretly thought: "Did something happen to the Western Expedition Army?" The conquest was a war of unprecedented scale for the Huaxia Kingdom, because the number of places and nationalities to be conquered was the largest in history. However, this war was the first time that Lin Nan did not have a charioteer to fight in person. Instead, he entrusted the entire Western Expedition army to his second son Lin Lin. The army he mobilized was also equipped with elite soldiers and generals, and the counselors were also first-rate. . He did this to exercise Lin Lin's ability to command an army, and it was also an extremely risky move. "Teacher, the sky seems to be falling down today, which is very abnormal. There has been no news from the Western Expeditionary Army for several days. Do you think something unexpected happened?" Lin Nan pressed his hands on the city wall, mouth Squirming, he asked calmly. Zhu Gongdao stood beside Lin Nan. When he heard what Lin Nan said, he hurriedly comforted him: "Don't worry, Your Majesty. The Emperor has mobilized many elite soldiers and generals for this Western Expedition. Although General Wang is young and vigorous, he has Duke Zhen Guo followed, and the General King obeyed Duke Zhen Guo. With Duke Zhen Guo here, the General King would definitely return in triumph. What's more, Sima Yi and Pang Tong, the patrol officers, also went together. There has been no news in the past few days. , indicating that it is good news, unlike the bad news reported a few days ago. Maybe there will be news tomorrow. " Lin Nan sighed and said, "I hope so." After a while, the sky. It rained heavily in the middle of the night, and in just a short while, the ground was completely soaked. Lin Nan was about to turn around and leave when he suddenly saw a horse riding gracefully through the rain in the distance. Behind the knight were two bright red flags. They were the Eight Hundred Miles Express of the Intelligence Department. After he saw the knight, he hurriedly shouted: "Quick, stop that scout, it must be an urgent report from the northwest." Zhu Gongdao said "Promise", immediately rose into the sky, and fell directly from the city tower on the city wall. When he got down, his feet landed just on the head of the horse that the knight was riding.Nodding the horse's head, the horse suddenly fell to the ground, knocking the scout to the ground.
