Outside Jinyang City, the Xiongnu army finally cleared all the boulders blocking the river bank and approached Jinyang!
However, when they passed through the valley, they saw the corpses of Xiongnu soldiers along the way, and the Fen River that was dyed red with blood…
"Ah!"
Seeing such a tragic scene, Xiongnu's Qiangqu Chanyu roared towards the sky in grief and indignation,""Take down Jin Yang! Massacre the city for three days! I must kill all the Han people in Taiyuan County!”
"Kill them!"
"Kill them!"
"Kill them!"
The morale of the Xiongnu army soared under the lead of the Qiangqu Chanyu.
Seeing so many of their clansmen killed, their mood was not any better than that of the Qiang Qu Chanyu.
Since this war had already progressed to this point, it seemed to have reached a point where it would not rest until one of them was dead.
After walking out of the valley, they found another pile of corpses at the exit of the river.
After searching for a while, they finally found a headless corpse. The Qiangqu Chanyu saw that it was the armor that his son, Huhuquan, wore when he went to war.
He couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
However, Qiangqu Chanyu did not want the army to stop and rest. Instead, he continued to advance…
Not far away, he saw another pile of corpses.
They were also dressed like Xiongnu soldiers. Everyone recognized them as the vanguard cavalry of the Xiongnu!
But now, it seemed that this vanguard of fifty thousand cavalrymen... had all lost their lives here!
When Qiang Qu Chanyu, who was about to vomit blood and faint, heard this news, he spat out a mouthful of blood and could not help but faint.
Now that the Qiang Qu Chanyu was still unconscious, the Xiongnu army did not dare to act rashly.
Qubei Rang's army went south and camped at a river not far from Jinyang, waiting for Qiang Qu Chanyu to wake up.
This gave Yu Chen and the others ample time to prepare.
After resting for two days and two nights, the Xiongnu Chanyu finally woke up.
"Chanyu! Do you think it's easy to write?" Qu Bei asked worriedly.
Qiangqu Chanyu nodded weakly and asked,""What's going on outside? How long was I unconscious?"
Qu Bei replied,"The army has already been stationed. You've been unconscious for two days and two nights."”
"Because I wasted two days of my time alone…" the Qiangqu Chanyu said with a bitter smile.
After thinking for a while, Qiang Qu Chanyu said to Qu Bei,""Go and call all the leaders and generals of the Xiongnu tribes. I have something to announce!”
"Here."
Qu Bei walked out of the tent. Soon, all the Xiongnu leaders and generals who had come with the army came into the tent.
"I know that I don't have long to live, and I can't continue to command this war. However, we can't be caught off guard when we attack Jinyang! "I now appoint Qu Bei as the Great General of Shen Wei. He will lead the troops and command all the operations to attack Jin Yang! When you return to the Chanyu Court, recommend Liu Bao as the Chanyu. He must be a good Chanyu…"
" Chanyu…" Qu Bei wanted to decline, but Qiangqu Chanyu waved his hand and interrupted him."Do as I say! Get out! Before sunrise tomorrow, I want to hear the sound of you attacking Jin Yang!”
After everyone left the tent, some tribe leaders looked at Qu Bei with dissatisfaction.
Some even snorted at Qu Bei and left without looking back.
Qu Bei was also very helpless. Although he had some prestige in the Xiongnu, not everyone respected him!
If it wasn't for the current state of the Qiangqu Chanyu, he really didn't want to accept the title of the Divine Might Great General and the command of the army.
However, it was useless to say anything now. They had already wasted two days. If they were to delay any longer, who knew what would happen?
Qu Bei returned to his tent and called his subordinates over to discuss how to attack Jin Yang. After coming up with a few good ideas, he got someone to call the leaders of the various tribes.
After waiting for a long time, all the leaders finally arrived.
Although a portion of the leaders were unhappy with Qu Bei, they did not dare to act rashly now that the Qiang Qu Chanyu was still alive.
Qu Bei told everyone his plan. Seeing that everyone thought it was fine, Qu Bei decided to attack Jin Yang tomorrow morning!
Meanwhile, Yu Chen and the others in Jinyang City had long been waiting for the Xiongnu to attack.
At the fifth watch of the next day, the Xiongnu army had already eaten and drunk and began to assemble!
Although some of the siege weapons were damaged during the ambush at Fen River, some of them were still usable.
However, it was not easy for them to attack Jinyang. There was a moat around Jinyang. If they wanted to touch the city wall of Jinyang, they had to cross the moat first.
However, Jin Yang's moat was wide and deep, so it was not easy to cross it.
Qu Bei sent people to chop down some thick and straight trees and nailed some wooden planks on them. The width was just enough for a person to cross, and the length was about enough to build on the moat.
Everything was ready. When the first ray of sunlight shone on the ground, the Xiongnu launched an attack on Jin Yang!
The battle of the city was undoubtedly the cruelest. The two sides fought day and night for four days and four nights!
The Xiongnu army had climbed up the walls of Jinyang several times, but with Zhao Yun, an unparalleled divine general, guarding the walls, it was impossible for the Xiongnu to stand on the walls.
After four days of continuous attacks, both sides suffered losses.
However, the Xiongnu suffered far more losses than the Han army.
In these four days, the Xiongnu had suffered 120,000 to 130,000 casualties!
It was impossible to continue attacking the city. Moreover, they had lost so many Xiongnu soldiers this time.
Those Xiongnu leaders would not let Qu Bei off so easily.
Now, Qu Bei was riding a tiger and could not get off.
They had attacked Jinyang for four consecutive days with more than ten times the Han army's strength. Other than the fact that the Han army in Jinyang was not afraid of death, the Xiongnu battalion was good at attacking cities, which led to such a large number of casualties.
However, they could not afford to waste time now. They could only attack forcefully!
At this moment, a soldier rushed into the tent in a panic."Report! Something bad happened! Something bad happened! Behind our army, a group of cavalrymen riding on a giant wolf suddenly appeared and charged through the army, slaughtering and killing!”
The Xiongnu leaders who were arguing all stopped when they heard this news and looked at the soldier.
The leader of the right Xiongnu tribe, Huan Luo, had a bad temper. When he heard the soldier's words, he lifted him up and shouted angrily,"Cavalrymen riding giant wolves? Are you talking about the Heavenly Wolf Tribe? That was the overlord of the grasslands! No one could tame it! If you dare to lie about the military situation, you will definitely be killed!”
The soldier was on the verge of tears. No one would believe him if he told the truth!
"Awooo!"
At this moment, wolf howls suddenly came from outside the tent.
Everyone's eyes once again focused on the soldier who reported the news. Their expressions changed drastically, and they all rushed out of the tent!
Not far away, a brave general holding a crescent halberd was leading a wolf cavalry riding on a giant wolf, slaughtering the Xiongnu army…
Just as they were panicking in fear, a silver-armored and white-robed general led a group of cavalrymen to attack them!!
A pincer attack!
There was only one word in the hearts of all the Xiongnu leaders.
It was over!
