This time Yang Ling ordered an attack on the Xianbei people, Wen Qin specially used his connections to transfer himself outside the Great Wall, intending to make military exploits and revive his family's reputation.

But he didn't expect that his luck was really bad.

The tribesmen left behind by Kebi Neng were all old, weak, sick and disabled.

At the slightest contact, they broke into retreat.

After several attacks, Wen Qin didn't even get a kill, which made him quite depressed.

Today, under the orders of his superiors, he led a team of troops to the west to inquire about the movements of the Xianbei people.

However, despite the long journey, not even the ghost of the Xianbei people was seen.

In this way, how to make meritorious service?

Wen Qin frowned and thought for a moment, then took off the map from his waist and unfolded it.

When he saw one of them, his eyes lit up!

"I order the soldiers to have a good rest. After burning incense, we will go west and attack Danhan Mountain directly!"

As soon as Wen Qin said this, the adjutant on the side was shocked.

"General, this...isn't this not good?"

"Tanhan Mountain is where the Xianbei Royal Court is located. We only have more than a thousand cavalry. If we want to capture Danhan Mountain, isn't it just a dream?"

"Besides, the military order given to us from above is for us to inquire about intelligence on the Western Front, but it does not allow us to take the initiative!"

Wen Qin waved his hand and said nonchalantly,

"The Xianbei people's army was all led to the west of Yinshan Mountain by Kebineng. Otherwise, how could our army of Wei be so successful?"

"In my opinion, the Xianbei Royal Court only has more than 10,000 troops at most!"

"We traveled a long way to attack and caught them completely off guard!"

"As for military orders, haven't you ever heard that when generals are away, military orders are not obeyed?"

"As long as we win the battle, how can the higher ups refuse?"

The adjutant looked hesitant and hesitated before agreeing.

Seeing this situation, Wen Qin followed the good guidance,

"We, the Wei Dynasty, have twenty to thirty thousand soldiers and horses for this expedition against the Xianbei people, and Wuhuan also has fifty thousand cavalry."

"In addition, there is a steady stream of troops and horses transferred from the Xuanwu Military Region."

"If we don't seize this opportunity, we won't even be able to drink the soup!"

After his strong persuasion, the adjutant finally found it difficult to resist the temptation and nodded heavily, saying,

"Everything follows the general's orders!"

"Very good, let the soldiers have a good rest!"

Wen Qin nodded with satisfaction.



At the foot of Danhan Mountain.

The formerly solemn Xianbei Royal Court was now in chaos.

After knowing the news that the Wei army was about to attack, the Xianbei people were busy packing their bags!

"Throw away all the things you shouldn't have brought with you. We must set off today!"

Looking at the messy scene in front of him, Marquis Ju Luo was so angry that he could do nothing.

The royal court is not only the ruling center of the Xianbei people, but also a place where they worship ghosts, gods and ancestors.

Therefore, there were a large number of Xianbei civilians living around the royal court.

Ju Luohou was ordered by Ke Bineng to return to Danhan Mountain in order to relocate the royal court and the people of Xianbei.

"Sir, if this continues, let alone today, I'm afraid I won't be able to set off tomorrow!"

The big Xianbei man on the side said helplessly.

"Of course I know!"

Ju Luohou said angrily,

"Ignore them, we must set off this evening!"

According to the news received by Marquis Ju Luo, the vanguard of the Wei army had arrived thirty miles away from Danhan Mountain.

Nowadays, the royal court is fully prepared and only has a few thousand guards.

If we delay any longer, when the Wei Dynasty army arrives, there will be only death for Marquis Juluo!

After passing on the order, Marquis Juluo breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the camp to drink.

However, not long after, the noise coming from outside suddenly became noisier.

"What happened again?"

Ju Luohou asked impatiently.

"Sir, no...it's not good..."

A Xianbei nobleman ran in, crawling on the ground.

"Wei Jun...attacked!"

"What?"

Ju Luohou was shocked, dropped the wine glass in his hand, and ran out!

Danhan Mountain is regarded as a holy mountain by the Xianbei people. Except for sacrifices, unrelated people are prohibited from going up the mountain on weekdays.

The closest place to Danhan Mountain is the Xianbei Royal Court, where Kebi can handle government affairs, receive his subordinates, and live.

Following closely were a group of dignitaries from Xianbei.

Ordinary Xianbei people can only live in the outermost areas.

Ju Luohou left the camp and looked out. He saw chaos in the distance, and Cao Wei's cavalry could be vaguely seen rushing in and throwing kerosene bombs in their hands on the Xianbei people's camp.

The weather outside the Great Wall was relatively dry, and the fire took advantage of the wind and spread in a matter of seconds!

"hiss……"

Ju Luohou took a breath of cold air.

Why did the Wei army arrive so quickly? What should we do?

"Sir, how about... why don't we withdraw?"

The man on the side swallowed his saliva and said cautiously.

Now it's chaos, I don't know how many troops the Wei army has come!

If the Wei Dynasty's army presses the border, if you don't run away, it will be the end of you!

Thinking of this, Ju Luohou made up his mind and said in a deep voice,

"Bring the sacrificial utensils with you, let's retreat!"

Thousands of royal guards escorted Marquis Juluo and the sacrificial utensils, passing through the endless tents and planning to head west!

However, not far after they walked out, they saw chaos ahead, followed by a group of Wei cavalry rushing out!

The leader was none other than Cao Wei general Wen Qin!

The two sides looked at each other and were both stunned!

After seeing Marquis Juluo's luxurious clothes and a large number of sacrificial utensils behind him, Wen Qin was instantly overjoyed.

"Brothers, this is your chance to make a difference!"

He clamped his horse's belly and rushed towards Ju Luohou first!

Ju Luohou's heart sank and he shouted sternly,

"Stop him!"

A group of royal guards were about to come forward, but they saw the Wei cavalry behind Wen Qin all raising their Lingyue Repeating Crossbows.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

Countless arrows were shot out, directly smashing the royal tent guards in the front row into sieves!

Wen Qin seized this opportunity and rushed directly into the Xianbei formation.

Although his military power is far inferior to that of Zhao Yun, Deng Ai, Jiang Wei and others, he is also known for his bravery.

With a powerful sword, Wen Qin chopped down seven or eight royal tent guards and rushed to Ju Luohou!

Ju Luohou was panicking, but he forced himself to calm down, raised his sword and gritted his teeth to face him!

The two sides fought to the same point, and after a brief exchange of blows, the superiority was evident!

Wen Qin was tall and mighty, and his strength was far superior to that of Ju Luohou.

Every blow hit Ju Luohou's weapon, causing his body to shrink a bit!

After a few blows, Ju Luohou lost his fighting spirit. He pulled the reins and planned to retreat.

But how could Wen Qin give him this opportunity to take off the Lingyue Repeating Crossbow from the horse and hit him with a single shot!

"ah……"

Ju Luohou was shot in the heart by several arrows and fell off his horse with a scream!

Wen Qin clapped his horse and rushed up, chopped off his head and held it high!

"The thief is dead, why don't you surrender quickly!"
