Wanda was secretly happy in his heart, but he felt his body go limp and he fell straight off the horse.
The cavalrymen at the rear were unable to avoid Wandayuan, ignoring Wandayuan's screams, and stepped over him, and then fell into the horse trap.
Before dying, Wan Dayuan's last thought was: "Damn, you can't run too fast when you run away..."
Normally, the coach would not take the lead. Multie was going crazy, and Wanda thought he was out of danger...
As darkness approached, the Qin army began to clean up the battlefield, and all 70,000 Xiongnu soldiers were wiped out!
The Qin army also suffered heavy casualties. After all, the infantry and cavalry were in a head-on confrontation. More than 10,000 of the 200,000 Qin soldiers died in the battle, and countless others were injured.
In the north, Hedu, who was running all the way, did not encounter Heda.
When Heda rushed four to five hundred miles, he finally came to his senses. The most important thing at the moment was to go back quickly and inform Touman Shanyu of the news, so as to prevent Hedu Ye and Murtie in the Hexi Corridor from threatening Langting after knowing the news.
So he rode hard all the way, and when his horse died, he asked the tribe for reinforcements, and finally rushed back to the Wolf Court one day ahead of Hedu.
But looking at the burned-out Wolf Court in front of him, Heda collapsed completely.
"Ah! Where is my Wolf Court?!"
After Wu Jian penetrated the east and west sides of Beihu, he did not follow my order to continue north to the vicinity of Hulun Lake, because he found that Beihu had no resistance at all, and all the cavalry were lost in the battle of Daqingshan. Only the old, weak, women and children were left.
So Wu Jian sent someone to notify the border troops and asked them to go north to attack Beihu, while he rushed directly to Langting according to the approximate location on the map.
The day after Zarut left, the messenger sent by Wu Jian arrived at the Great Wall.
I happened to have not left at this time. I frowned slightly when I looked at the report handed over by Feng Youcheng, the governor of Shanggu County.
If there is no matter about Zalut, Wu Jian's approach is very suitable to my liking. The Xiongnu is empty inside, which is indeed a good time to attack Langting, but this will disrupt my deployment of Zalut.
Without the achievement of driving out the Qin army, even with the current attitude of Beihu towards Donghu, it would be difficult for Zalut to gain a foothold in Beihu.
"Feng Youcheng, I need a barbarian who is absolutely trustworthy and loyal to the Qin Dynasty. I also need to form a barbarian cavalry of more than a thousand people. Can you do it?"
Feng Youcheng hesitated: "Back to Your Majesty, the former minister is here, and one of my guards was originally from Beihu. When he was still young, I accidentally rescued him by the Great Wall. He is absolutely loyal to me and to the Qin Dynasty. As for the more than a thousand Hu cavalry, although there are many surrendered Hu cavalry at the foot of the Great Wall, they are just loyal enough, so I’m afraid it won’t be easy to gather together.”
"Call that man over. I want to see him. You try to gather as many cavalrymen as you can. You must have reliable people!"
Not long after, Hazhusu walked in, bowed and clasped his fists, saying, "I have seen your majesty!"
Hazhusu people are tall and strong, with bright eyes. At first glance, they are rare warriors.
"Ha Zhusu, right? I heard that Feng Youcheng was kind to you in raising you, but is it true?"
Hazhusu looked grateful: "Your Majesty, if it weren't for Mr. Feng, the villain would have starved to death at the foot of the Great Wall. Not only the villain, Master Feng treated the returning Beihu people equally, and the tribes close to the Great Wall treated them equally. Mr. Feng praised me very much!"
I smiled and nodded: "I have a big thing for you to handle. Please listen carefully..."
After I finished speaking, Hazhusu's face was full of excitement: "Your Majesty, I am willing to do it! Beihu and Donghu are originally a family. Most people have no hostility towards Donghu, but the leader of Beihu often thinks that Donghu has betrayed Our tribe has long been tired of our continuous conquests for decades. Now that the Qin Dynasty is prosperous, if we continue to be enemies of the Qin Dynasty, we are really asking for our own destruction!"
"Okay!" Hazhusu exceeded my expectations. There should be no doubt about his loyalty and his brain is very good.
"After Feng Youcheng selects the cavalry, you immediately set out at night and make sure no one finds you."
The next day, a cavalry of 700 people appeared on the grassland, claiming to be Zarut's cavalry along the way.
At this time, Zalut, who had gained the trust of the Beihu people in his tribe and was still thinking hard about what to do next in the tribe, heard that he had an extra cavalry for no reason, so he immediately went to look for it.
After the two met, Hazhusu explained my plan, and Zalut was overjoyed: "The Emperor of Qin is really a man of heaven!"
Then the two of them ran around in Beihu, announcing that they were going to fight the Qin army, and attracted more than 10,000 cavalry along the way. Although the quality was not very good, at least the momentum was achieved.
Then they gradually took control of the southern part of Beihu, which was not so hostile to Donghu, and launched an expedition against the northern part of Beihu, which believed that Donghu had seized their territory and was extremely hostile to Donghu. This time Er'er sent troops mainly because the northern tribes were the most active and suffered the greatest casualties. Naturally, they were no match for Zalut. It didn't take long for Zalut to unify Beihu.
Since then, Zalut has also spread the reputation of "the seven hundred cavalry reestablished the Hu tribe".
As for Wu Jian who ran to Langting, he didn't expect that he actually found Touman Shanyu.
How could Touman Shanyu have imagined that the Qin army could penetrate thousands of miles into the grassland and reach the Wolf Court, and was captured by Wu Jian without any precautions.
Wu Jian then headed south without hesitation, looting all the way to the Great Wall.
When Wu Jian returned to Yunzhong, I was already waiting for him in Shangjun.
After Wu Jian came back, he heard that I was waiting for him in Shangjun, so he immediately rushed to Shangjun with Touman Shanyu in tow.
As soon as they met, Wu Jian immediately bowed deeply: "Your Majesty, I will apologize to you!"
I looked at him with a smile and said calmly: "Oh? You defeated Donghu, defeated Beihu, burned down Langting, and captured Touman Shanyu. Who has made greater achievements than you in the past and present? What crime is there?"
Meng Tian and Wang Li were both there, and they sensed something was wrong, and quickly said: "Your Majesty, do you want me to go out first?"
I waved my hand and didn't reply to him.
Wu Jian was so nervous that he sweated a little: "Your Majesty, the general disobeyed the edict and did not defeat all the Beihu. He instead went to attack Langting. He was arrogant with his troops and should be punished by death!"
There is no problem if the general is outside and your orders are not taken care of, but that is just a specific way of fighting in a certain war. You don't have to obey the command. Behavior like this, which is related to the overall situation and is directly separated from the battlefield, is not called adaptability. No emperor would tolerate this kind of thing.
"Wu Jian, I admire you very much and value you very much. On the way to Langting, have you ever thought about what would happen if Beihu still had hidden heavy troops? What if you didn't find Lang before Hedu returned to the army? What should happen to the court? What if because of you all the 30,000 fine cavalry built by the Qin Dynasty are buried in the grassland? What if because of you, Hedu also turns around and Multie attacks Meng Tian’s 200,000 army from front to back? "
