Dahan: A 100-year-old veteran, I will build the strongest family

Chapter 65 Li Hong is plotted against, in danger

Li Li sat on the city wall and personally presided over the overall situation. He immediately cut off one hand of the Xianbei Chanyu Tan Shihuai and one hand of the Xianbei Prince He Lian, and sent them to the Xianbei camp. He also erected Tan Shihuai and all his family members high up. As long as the Xianbei people attacked the city, the Xianbei royal family would immediately stain the city walls with blood.

After a confrontation, facing the life and death of the Xianbei leader Tan Shihuai, the commanders of the Xianbei tribes finally retreated.

Tan Shihuai was not only the leader of the Xianbei, but also the boss they had followed for decades.

……

After retreating, the Xianbei generals became more and more unhappy and angry.

"Damn it, we can never swallow this humiliation. The Han people must pay the price in blood!"

"Gather the troops, ride on the great men, and take revenge!"

"I agree. My Xianbei tribe has roamed the grasslands for decades, and all tribes have paid tribute to us. When have we ever suffered such a great humiliation?"

The heroes in the Xianbei tent were furious, and the eleven Xianbei generals who were in charge of one side gathered together.

"I don't agree. The Chanyu is still in the hands of the Han people. If we attack the Han people now, the Han people will definitely kill the Chanyu. Do you want to kill the Chanyu? The Chanyu promoted us to the commander-in-chief and gave us power and benefits. Have you forgotten all that?"

Suddenly a voice of objection was heard. The generals looked and saw that the person who spoke was none other than the Western Xianbei general Putou.

"I don't agree either. The Han people are ruthless. If we attack, I'm afraid the Chanyu will definitely be the first to be killed. We can't mobilize troops for the time being."

Another voice of objection was heard, and the generals looked over and saw that it was Suli, the Eastern Xianbei general, who spoke.

Putou and Suli both had high prestige in the west and the east. As soon as they opened their mouths, they immediately calmed down many angry Xianbei generals.

"What should we do? Are we just going to watch the Han people live freely and go back to the Han Dynasty?"

A Xianbei said angrily and unwillingly.

"Yes, the Han people are despicable. They killed so many of our Xianbei men that the royal court was destroyed. The Han people must pay the price!"

Suli and Putou spoke up, but it did not stop the many angry Xianbei generals.

This made Suli and Putou frown. Li Hong asked them to stop the Xianbei commander from attacking Yunzhong City, which was obviously not easy to do.

Originally, they wanted Li Hong to kill Tan Shihuai directly, which was just right.

In this way, Li Hong and Tan Shihuai will both die, and they can also compete for supremacy in the grassland.

However, Li Hong sent them a message, threatening them.

Li Hong said that even if they killed "Tan Shihuai" openly, it would be a substitute. Tan Shihuai would be released secretly, and they would definitely not be able to become the Chanyu.

This forced Suli and Putou to cooperate with Li Hong.

However, now all the generals and heroes are furious, and they can do nothing about it.

"I do have a plan that can kill Li Hong and rescue the Chanyu!"

Suddenly, a voice sounded, attracting everyone's attention. The person who spoke was none other than Kebineng, the chief of the Central Xianbei tribe.

Ke Bineng met everyone's gazes, his eyes flickering, and said directly:
"With all the Han troops out this time, the guards at Yanmen Pass will surely be lax. On the one hand, we will send troops to surround Yunzhong City to prevent Li Hong from moving. On the other hand, hundreds of thousands of cavalrymen from various Xianbei tribes will attack the Han border, break through Yanmen Pass, and march south to the Han imperial capital Luoyang. The Han emperor will surely be panicked. We will send a message to him, forcing him to release the Chanyu and hand over Li Hong!"

"Li Hong dares to threaten us, but he dares not disobey the Emperor of Han!"

Ke Bineng's voice was loud and clear, his eyes sparkling.

All the Xianbei commanders in the big tent were shocked all over, as if they had been enlightened, and they immediately understood.

"Yes, Li Hong dares to threaten us, but he has to listen to the Emperor of the Han Dynasty." "I agree to attack Yanmen Pass!"

"agree!"

"I agree!"

Inside the big tent, all the commanders agreed immediately, but Putou and Suli were a little confused.

The two hadn't figured out what impact such words would have on them, but seeing that everyone else agreed, they had no choice but to agree.

Accompanied by violent shaking sounds, except for the 50,000 Xianbei cavalrymen from various tribes who stayed behind, the other 250,000 Xianbei cavalrymen marched south in a mighty force under the grim gazes of Li Hong, Huangfu Song and others on the Yunzhong city wall.

"Damn it, this Ke Bineng is so hateful. What is he thinking?" Huangfu Song said fiercely.

Suli and Putou have already sent back the news. Kebineng suggested attacking and threatening the Han people to release Tan Shihuai.

On the city wall, Jia Xu's eyes flickered and he said:
"This Ke Bineng has the potential to be a hero. He has calculated that the lord will not release Tan Shihuai. He knows that the lord must know the impact of Tan Shihuai's return to the Xianbei. This move is intended to kill the lord with the help of the court!"

"Moreover, even if the lord really released Tan Shihuai, Ke Bineng would be reused by Tan Shihuai because of saving him this time. Tan Shihuai is old and will not live long. Ke Bineng probably wants to use this opportunity to enhance his reputation in Xianbei and then plan for other things!"

"Now, we are hoping that the border troops of Youzhou and Liangzhou can break into the rear of the Xianbei army before the Xianbei army breaks into Yanmen Pass and cause an impact."

Jia Xu's voice reached Li Hong's ears, making Li Hong, Huangfu Song and others look even uglier. However, they all understood that now, they had more than 800,000 Han slaves in their hands and could not move at all. They could only wait for the Youzhou border army and the Liangzhou border army to do something.

Otherwise the situation will be bad.

Time passed anxiously day by day. Li Hong sent a large number of scouts to the south and north at the same time, one to observe the movements in the rear of the Xianbei and the other to observe the movements in Yanmen Pass.

The news from Yanmen Pass came first.

Although the news of the great victory was reported, the guards at Yanmen Pass also knew that Li Hong was trapped in Yunzhong City and there were hundreds of thousands of Xianbei troops, so they still tried hard to get the news.

When more than 200,000 Xianbei cavalrymen moved south, they were immediately discovered by the scouts at Yanmen Pass, and the guards at Yanmen Pass became nervous.

A large number of Xianbei cavalry were unable to raid Yanmen Pass and could only attack by force.

However, although the guards at Yanmen Pass were all soldiers from various counties and their abilities varied greatly, Yanmen Pass was a strategic pass and the Xianbei cavalry were all cavalry. Therefore, although the fighting at Yanmen Pass was fierce, the Xianbei armies could not immediately capture Yanmen Pass.

The fierce battle at Yanmen Pass continued, and time passed day by day.

By this time, a large amount of news had spread back to the various states of the Han Dynasty.

All the states and counties of the Han Dynasty were in uproar.

Li Hong and others in Yunzhong City were waiting anxiously.

Just when Li Hongqian and others had sent a large number of scouts to closely monitor the battle to defend Yanmen Pass, they discovered that the guards of Yanmen Pass had suffered heavy casualties and Yanmen Pass was in danger.

Finally, a scout came shouting from the north.

But it brought news that shocked millions of people in Yunzhong City.

The Xiongnu, Wuhuan, and Wusun took advantage of the fact that the Xianbei Chanyu was captured and the rear was empty, and sent troops to the rear of the Xianbei, burning, killing, and looting.

This news shocked, puzzled, and surprised millions of people in Yunzhong City.

The people in Yunzhong City did not know the specific situation, but Li Hong, Huangfu Song and others understood that the troops would be divided into two groups and set out from Liangzhou and Youzhou respectively. The four generals, Ji Ling, Yan Liang, Zhang Fei and Pan Feng, would lead the troops personally.

Li Hong breathed a sigh of relief.
