"How many people haven't arrived yet?"

Ke Bineng stood on the cliff on one side of Hulukou, frowning slightly as he looked at the Xianbei people passing by.

Hulukou is located to the north of the Yinshan Mountains and can be said to be the only way to Mobei.

After Kebineng issued the order, almost all Xianbei civilians began to withdraw to Mobei.

There were hundreds of thousands of them, and they were marching in such a mighty way that they formed a long queue that stretched as far as the eye could see!

"Reporting to my father-in-law, there should be only a few dozen tribes left. I believe they will all pass through the gourd mouth at dusk today!"

Yu Zhutan said in a deep voice!

"That's good!"

Kebineng breathed a sigh of relief and asked again,

"Where are the movements of the Wei army?"

"My son-in-law sent hundreds of spies to the east to investigate the movements of the Wei army, but they have never encountered the Wei army. I don't think they will arrive here in a short time."

Hearing Yu Zhutan's words, Ke Bineng was completely relieved!

"Father-in-law, are we going to ambush the Wei army here?"

Yu Zhutan said cautiously.

Kebineng said nothing, with a trace of hesitation on his face.

When the Wei army saw the Xianbei people fleeing in panic, they would pursue them vigorously.

The exits at both ends of the gourd mouth are narrow, but the interior space is extremely spacious.

If we can set up ambushes on the cliffs on both sides and send troops to block the entrances and exits, any army that enters the hinterland of Hulukou will face the end of annihilation!

Therefore, Ke Bi Neng knew very well that if he set up an ambush at Hulukou, he would most likely defeat the Wei army!

It's just that he doesn't dare!

Once the Wei army has strong soldiers and horses, Yang Ling is full of tricks and plans to set up an ambush, which may not work!

Secondly, even if we really succeed, I'm afraid we will have to completely break up with Cao Wei!

"My father-in-law's thoughts are very clear to my son-in-law."

Yu Zhutan persuaded him with kind words,

"It's just that our ancestor tokens and sacrificial utensils were all seized by the Wei army. If we don't do something, I'm afraid the clan members will complain!"

"Besides, my father-in-law, haven't you always wanted to negotiate peace with Cao Wei?"

"If we can't win on the battlefield, no matter how much we talk at the negotiation table, it will be useless."

"Why don't you defeat Cao Wei first, and then send people to sue for peace?"

His words touched Ke Bineng's heart.

"Okay, just as you said!"

Kebineng nodded heavily and smiled happily,

"I am lucky to have such a good son-in-law like you!"

"After a hundred years, this Shanyu's position will be yours!"

Yu Zhutan was instantly elated. He suppressed his excitement and said modestly,

"My father-in-law said something serious!"

"Zonu!"

Kebineng waved his hand to the general Suonu on the side and ordered,

"You and Yu Zhudan, each leading a team of troops, ambush on both sides of the valley."

"As long as I fight against the Wei army here, the two of you will attack from both sides and attack the Wei army with me!"

"Here!"

The two of them took the order in unison!

"Tuoba Liwei!"

"The villain is here!"

A big Xianbei man stood up. He was the leader of the Tuoba tribe of the Xianbei tribe, and Tuoba was weak.

"You lead a group of troops and ambush in the Yinshan Mountains."

"As soon as the shouts of killing start in the valley, you will lead the people to cut off the Wei army's retreat!"

"The villain takes orders!"

Kebi Neng gave the order in an orderly manner, and all the Xianbei dignitaries also led their troops and left!

But what they didn't know was that there were a few black spots floating faintly in the high and vast sky, which were Cao Wei's hot air balloons.

Several Wei soldiers controlled the hot air balloon and used telescopes to have a panoramic view of the situation below.



Not long after, these hot air balloons returned leisurely and landed in the Wei army camp.

The soldiers above jumped off the hot air balloon and hurried to the Chinese army camp.

"I have met His Highness King Qi!"

Yang Ling put down the file in his hand, looked at the hot air balloon scouts, and asked,

"But what information is there?"

"Reporting to His Highness King Qi, the Xianbei people are fleeing towards Mobei along the Hulukou in the Yinshan Mountains!"

As he spoke, several scouts stepped forward and marked the movements of the Xianbei people on the sand table.

"But they also deployed tens of thousands of soldiers and horses around Hulukou, as if they wanted to ambush our army!"

Hearing this, Dian Wei on the side couldn't help but snorted coldly,

"This Ke Bineng, he just ran away for his life, but he still wants to ambush us, he really doesn't know how to live or die!"

"What Uncle Dian said is absolutely true. Teacher, give me ten thousand soldiers and horses, and I swear to bring you Kebineng's head!"

Guanqiu Jian stood up!

"This matter... I don't need third brother to take action, I... I will just come forward!"

Deng Ai also did his part.

"Could it be that you two have forgotten me?"

Jiang Wei said reluctantly.

"How come you three brothers have taken advantage of such a good thing? No, no!"

Xia Houshang, Cao Xiu, Cao Zhen and others on the side also expressed their disagreement!

"enough!"

Seeing that they were arguing, Yang Ling had to stand up and call them to stop!

"There are hundreds of thousands of Xianbei people, and there are as many as one hundred thousand string masters among them. You really don't take them seriously!"

"Brother is right, are you going to be careless again?"

Zhao Yun also opened his mouth to reprimand.

As if cold water had been poured on their heads, everyone suddenly woke up and did not dare to argue anymore.

"It's better to ask brother to find a way."

Zhao Yun said softly.

Yang Ling pondered for a moment and said slowly,

"We have seen through the Xianbei people's ambush. But if we attack directly like this, I'm afraid we won't achieve much results."

Most of the Xianbei people are cavalry, and they can evacuate immediately if they notice any disturbance.

Although the Wei army had tiger and leopard cavalry and Wuhuan cavalry, it was somewhat reluctant to pursue them and expand their victory.

"In this case, it's better to use a strategy and send a troop of troops into the valley first to attract the attention of the Xianbei people."

"When the Xianbei people join forces to attack, let's do another counter-outflank!"

As soon as Yang Ling came up with this plan, everyone's eyes lit up!

If this is true, huge results will surely be achieved!

"It's just that the soldier and horse used as bait are quite dangerous. If not, the entire army may be annihilated..."

Zhao Yun sighed softly.

Needless to say, the terrain of Hulukou is unfavorable.

Facing the Xianbei people who are several times larger than our own and attacking from all directions, it is extremely difficult to hold on!

"The general will go where he wishes!"

A strong and round voice suddenly sounded in the camp!

Everyone took a closer look, and it turned out to be General Wen Qin of Yamen!

Although he had not been rewarded for his great achievements in the past, Yang Ling, who was thinking about Wen Yang, made an exception and approved Wen Qin to enter the account to discuss matters.

As soon as he heard that the war was dangerous and Wen Qin was eager to perform meritorious deeds, he stood up without hesitation.

"General Zhong Ruo is really brave!"

Yang Ling praised and said with a smile,

"I'll give you three thousand soldiers and horses. Can you hold on for an hour?"
