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

Chapter 66: Li Hong returns triumphantly, and becomes famous in the Han Dynasty.
"Good! Now the Xianbei people have to retreat!" In the Du family hall, Huangfu Song couldn't help but clapping his hands and said. As he spoke, Huangfu Song looked at Jia Xu with deep admiration.

"Okay, Wenhe is the one who made the greatest contribution in this battle. When I return to the capital, I will definitely recommend the credit to Wenhe!" Li Hong said happily, stroking his beard.

Jia Xu hurriedly bowed to Li Hong and said:
"This strategy is entirely due to the wise decision of the lord and the hard work of the soldiers. How can it be attributed to Xu?"

After hearing what Jia Xu said, Li Hong didn't say anything else. He was not a stingy person.

The reversal of this battle was definitely due to Jia Xu's effort to cut off the source of the problem.

Rewards and punishments are clear.

As the commander-in-chief, Li Hong must have asked for credit for Jia Xu.
This is Jia Xu's contribution, and no one can erase it.

Li Hong would not cover up anything just because Jia Xu was so talented, or deliberately hide Jia Xu from being discovered.

Liu Hong was incompetent and the Han Dynasty was a mess.

He believed that Jia Xu came into Liu Hong's sight because of his merits.

The world is about to fall into chaos, and Jia Xu will make the right choice.

"Pass on my order to report to the Xianbei people immediately. Tell them that our Han army scouts have discovered that the Xiongnu, Wuhuan, and Wusun have taken advantage of the capture of the Xianbei Chanyu and the emptiness of the Xianbei rear area to send troops to the rear of the Xianbei. They are now burning, killing, and looting."

Li Hong gave orders loudly.

Hearing Li Hong's words, Huangfu Song, Li Li and others looked at each other in surprise.

They sent a large army disguised as foreigners to attack the rear of the Xianbei. Now, they send someone to notify the other side?

It has to be said that this is quite outrageous and it is easy for the commanders of the Xianbei tribes to think of the flaws.

However, they all knew that Yanmen Pass was in danger, and the danger of it being breached increased by one day. Moreover, the burning, killing and looting of the Xianbei rear was a fact that was happening.

No matter what, whether the other party suspects something or not, we must return to the army.

Therefore, it is understandable that they can't wait to inform each other.

"Yes!" All the generals bowed and left.

The Han army scouts in Yunzhong City immediately reported the news to the Xianbei army stationed outside the city.

At the same time, he rode at full speed towards Yanmen Pass, but also to inform the Xianbei army that was attacking Yanmen Pass.

……

Yanmen Pass, the coalition forces of the Xianbei tribes.

"What? The armies of the Xiongnu, Wuhuan, and Wusun are burning, killing, and looting in my Xianbei tribe?"

Ke Bineng asked Suli in surprise.

A group of Xianbei commanders also exclaimed in disbelief.

"How is this possible? The Xiongnu, Wuhuan, and Wusun dare to attack us? Aren't they afraid of death?"

"The Xiongnu, Wuhuan, and Wusun all respect us Xianbei and pay tribute to us every year. How could they dare to attack us Xianbei? Could it be that they are taking advantage of our Xianbei army being away?"

All the Xianbei commanders were filled with indignation and were quite angry.

The Xianbei tribe was powerful, dominating the grasslands, and all other tribes submitted to them.

All the surrounding ethnic groups and countries were beaten up by them.

Attacking Xianbei at this time made them unbelievable and even angry.

"This was reported to us by the Han army. Now it has spread throughout the army. The men are talking about it and are very worried!" Suli said in a deep voice.

"Yanmen Pass is about to be breached. This is definitely a trick of the Han people!" Ke Bineng narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice.

Marshal Suli glanced at Ke Bineng and said in a deep voice:
"No matter whether it is a trick of the Han people or not, this time all my Xianbei troops have gone out, and the defenses of each tribe are indeed empty. If they are really attacked by the Xiongnu, Wuhuan, and Wusun, the cost will be too high. I suggest that each tribe immediately send people back to find out the truth!" All the Xianbei commanders had no objection to Marshal Suli's words. After all, the rear is their hometown, and nothing is more important than the base camp.

Immediately, a number of Xianbei generals sent cavalry to the north to inquire. Many Xianbei cavalry were worried that the momentum of attacking Yanmen Pass had weakened a lot.

Within a few days, before Yanmen Pass was breached, groups of Xianbei people seeking help rushed to the Xianbei tribes outside Yanmen Pass.

……

"The Wusun, Xiongnu, and Wuhuan tribes actually dared to attack my Xianbei tribe. I am so angry. I will never forgive them!"

Inside the big tent, the eleven generals gathered again, roaring angrily.

They had already received news from their tribesmen that it was indeed the Wusun, Xiongnu and Wuhuan tribes that were wreaking havoc in their rear.

"I suggest that we withdraw our troops immediately. The Xianbei have already suffered heavy casualties because of the Han people. If we go back too late, all our Xianbei tribes will be finished!"

Marshal Putou said with a gloomy expression.

At this time, Putou was not sure whether it was Li Hong's plan or the Xiongnu and Wuhuan people really invaded.

But no matter what, Putou decided to withdraw.

Putou spoke, and Suli also said: "My troops have also withdrawn. Let's settle accounts with the Wusun and Xiongnu first, and then rescue the Chanyu!"

Putou and Suli spoke one after another. The generals hesitated for a moment and expressed their intention to withdraw their troops to drive out the invading Wusun and Xiongnu armies first, and then rescue Tan Shihuai.

"Alas." Ke Bineng saw that the generals were ready to retreat, but he understood that his plan was doomed, so he finally decided to withdraw.

The Xianbei generals made up their minds and returned to their respective armies without stopping, then immediately moved their tents and headed north.

Only the guards who survived the disaster were left on the Yanmen Pass city wall.

……

"Retreat, the Xianbei people retreat, the Xianbei people retreat!"

"Great, we are finally safe, finally safe."

The walls of Yunzhong City were covered with dense crowds of Han people. They watched the Xianbei cavalry heading north like a tide, crying with joy and cheering loudly.

These Han people who were crying with joy were all Han slaves rescued by Li Hong.

The Xianbei people retreated, and they finally got a new life. From then on, they were free, and they were finally no longer slaves who were enslaved and driven by others.

"These Han people deserve to die. Let's keep this in mind."

The Xianbei high-ranking officials who were passing by could not help but shout in anger when they saw the cheers echoing for miles around Yunzhong City.

Some Xianbei cavalrymen even couldn't help but draw their bows and shoot arrows in the direction of Yunzhong City. Although they were far away and the arrows could not hurt anyone, they still expressed their determination.

On the city wall, Huangfu Song looked at the Xianbei cavalry shooting arrows and couldn't help but smile at Li Hong:

"Old General, it seems that these Xianbei people have a strong hatred for the Han people."

Upon hearing this, Li Hong stroked his gray beard, his eyes flashing with murderous intent, and said:
"These Xianbei people are lucky this time. We don't have enough soldiers to injure them. Next time, I will make them know what fear and terror are!"

Li Hong's sharp words shocked all the generals, and their eyes showed fighting spirit.

"Okay, the army should prepare to return. Also, tell the millions of people in Yunzhong City that the attack on the rear of the Xianbei was done by our Han army from You and Liang. Let them be happier!" Li Hong stroked his gray beard and said with a smile. He didn't care whether the Xianbei people behind him would be so angry that they would vomit blood when they knew about it. Anyway, the hatred between them and the Xianbei was even greater, so they didn't care about this. Even if he didn't say it, the Xianbei people would find out that it was the Han army that attacked the Xianbei. It would be better to say it out to increase his reputation.

"promise!"

Soon, millions of people in Yunzhong learned that the Xiongnu and Wuhuan armies that attacked the Xianbei rear were actually the work of the Han You and Liang border armies, and that this was an order issued by Li Hong.

Millions of Han people in Yunzhong City were overjoyed and talked about it a lot, saying that although the Xianbei were powerful, they were being played around in their hands.
