Hundreds of thousands of Xianbei cavalry camped outside Yanmen Pass.
Other than a few soldiers guarding the camp, most of the Xianbei cavalry had already fallen asleep.
After a day of fighting, although they did not break through Yanmen Pass, they were already very tired.
The camp was surrounded by a fence that was as tall as a person. Every fence pillar was cut into a sharp shape. This was to prevent the guards of Yanmen Pass from ambushing.
Night was often the time when a person was the most exhausted, and it was also the best time to launch a night attack.
Bu Dugen was sitting in a simple tent. The Xianbei leaders were silent, and the air was heavy.
"This time, we lost another ten thousand elite cavalry. Why do you think?”
Bu Dugen held back the anger in his chest, and his eyes filled with hatred swept over those little leaders.
These leaders looked at each other in confusion.
The attack on Yanmen Pass this time was clearly a mistake in the Left Sage King Bu Dugen's command, causing more than ten thousand elites to die at Yanmen Pass.
Now, Bu Dugen was trying to push the blame onto them?
The few leaders exchanged glances and remained silent.
The dog-headed military advisor pondered for a moment and said,""Your Majesty, although we lost this time, we can't attack tomorrow. We can only use our wits."
"Oh? What brilliant plan does the military counselor have? Just say it."
Bu Dugen generously let the dog head military counselor sit down. The dog head military counselor reported,""Your Majesty, in tomorrow's battle, we will mainly attack the city gates with siege logs, and the siege walls with ladders as a supplement. Yanmen Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The city walls are tall, but the city gates are a fatal weakness.
"In addition, when we attack the city, we can use the shields as cover and set up traps under the city gates. When the time comes, they will definitely be in chaos.”
"If that's the case, then we'll wait for the decisive battle tomorrow. Hmph, how can the little schemes of the Han dogs compare to my hundreds of thousands of Xianbei cavalry?”
"Your Majesty will definitely win. Your Majesty is wise."
Seeing Bu Dugen's hearty smile, the few leaders praised him in a low voice.
At this moment, Bu Dugen didn't know that a black shadow was approaching the Xianbei camp.
These were the strong crossbowmen led by Meng Tian. Each of them looked at the endless tents with a solemn expression.
"My lord, you are indeed wise. The Xianbei barbarians have no defenses and are all sleeping. This is the best time to set fire.”
It turned out that Meng Tian had led a Meng family army to set fire to the Xianbei camp.
At this moment, the mountain wind blew. Meng Tian stretched out her hand to test the direction of the wind and immediately decided to start a fire.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Fire arrows that were like a rain of fire rushed into the tent.
As most of the Xianbei cavalry were sleeping, this was the time when they were at their deepest sleep.
Therefore, even when the fire arrows burned the tents, some soldiers did not wake up.
However, some of the soldiers got up, and some of the soldiers guarding the tent saw the tent on fire. They immediately shouted and beat drums and gongs, causing chaos.
At this moment, the wind blew and set many tents ablaze.
In an instant, many Xianbei soldiers were burned by the flames and screamed.
Bu Dugen and his generals quickly walked out of the tent and saw flames soaring into the sky. It was as if they had encountered dry wood. Many tents were on fire.
"Put out the fire!" Bu Dugen said in alarm.”
Only then did a soldier react and hurriedly pick up a bucket to put out the fire.
Several leaders escorted Bu Dugen to the top of the hill. They saw flames soaring into the sky, and they could vaguely see a black shadow.
Suddenly, Bu Dugen saw that it was Meng Tian from Yanmen Pass.
"Kill as I wish," shouted Meng Tian.
"Kill, kill, kill!"
In an instant, a group of Meng Army soldiers raised their sabers and spears and killed the Xianbei cavalrymen who had thrown away their armor.
" Quick!" Bu Dugen said angrily." Capture Meng Tian and kill him."”
Bu Dugen gritted his teeth in anger. He had never expected that Yanmen Pass would launch a night attack, and it had succeeded.
"Charge!"
A Xianbei leader held a spear and led the temporarily assembled Xianbei cavalry to attack Meng Tian.
Meng Tian was not afraid in the face of danger. She shouted and the Qin halberd pierced into the Xianbei leader's head.
He saw his brain splattering and died under the horse.
"Bu Dugen, how about this gift?" Meng Tian asked loudly.”
Before he finished speaking, he led the Meng family army and left like lightning.
It could be seen that Meng Tian did not want to continue fighting and only used fire to attack.
Bu Dugen stomped his feet in anger. He had already lost his mind. He could not help but order the cavalry to rush over and kill Meng Tian.
The dog-headed military advisor at the side hurriedly stopped him. He was afraid that there was an ambush ahead.
Suddenly, a clap of thunder sounded in the sky.
A heavy rain fell from the sky and extinguished the Xianbei camp that was on fire.
Meng Tian, who had returned to Yanmen Pass, sighed.""Sigh, the heavens are not kind."
Helplessly, he led the Meng army back to Yanmen Pass.
The heavy rain came at the right time. Bu Dugen was escorted by his generals back to the newly built tent.
Bu Dugen didn't sleep for the whole night. He didn't get the statistics until the next day.
This fire caused the Xianbei cavalry to lose more than ten thousand soldiers.
Bu Dugen rubbed his swollen head and shouted,""The army has set out to seize Yanmen Pass.”
The rain gradually stopped and thunder sounded in the sky.
The hundreds of thousands of Xianbei cavalrymen had their armor drenched by the rain. They silently stepped on the muddy ground, their morale even lower.
Inside Yanmen Pass, Liu Yu received the plan of Bu Dugen and the Dog-headed Military Advisor to attack the city from the Black Ice Platform's secret agent.
