Perhaps it was Chanyu Budugen who led it personally, or perhaps it was the Hundred Thousand Bone Burial Ground that inspired the bloody bravery of the Xianbei soldiers.
In just half a day, the Xianbei army rushed to the hinterland of Anding County and headed toward the city.
The journey is unstoppable!
Of course, there is no obstacle.
From Xiaoguan to the Chaona city in front of us, we didn't see a single Qin army.
What was even stranger was that not a single person was seen.
There is no sign of Han people, Qiang people, or Di people.
However, these did not give way to any doubt.
After all, there is only one small town on the road from Xiaoguan to Chaona.
It's so remote there that it's normal to have no one around.
Not long after, more than ten Xianbei soldiers returned from Chaona City.
"Report to Chanyu, there is an empty city in front of you."
"What! Another empty city?"
At this time, Bu Dugen couldn't calm down anymore.
Chaona is not a small town.
The last time I led my army here, there were still many people in the city.
"I report to Chanyu that the city is very dilapidated, as if no one has lived there for a long time."
"Could it be that Liu Zhang moved all the people to the hinterland?"
Apart from this explanation, Bu Dugen really couldn't think of a reason why Chaona City was abandoned.
At this time, a general stood up.
"Chanyu, don't worry about whether there are people in these small towns. What should we do now?"
When a hundred thousand troops came here, it couldn't be just for sightseeing, right?
Finding a destination, ruthlessly plundering and killing people was what all the Xianbei people wanted.
"Don't worry, isn't this Shanyu thinking about it?"
Bu Dugen looked around and kept recalling the previous situation.
There are two roads in Chaona City.
One is to Chang'an City in Guanzhong, and the other is to Liangzhou via Jieting.
If he were to march alone, Bu Dugen would naturally not hesitate and go directly to Chang'an, the most prosperous place.
But before entering the army, Bu Dugen had already made an agreement with the Wei envoy.
The Wei army captured Guanzhong, and the Xianbei army captured Liangzhou.
Normally, Bu Dugen should attack the street pavilion.
However, the street pavilion is not a good place.
Bu Dugen has not forgotten the tragic defeat at Jieting City last time.
Even he himself almost confessed that he was there!
Once a large army is stationed, it will undoubtedly be a hard nut to crack.
If he goes to Chang'an, he will meet the Wei army, and Bu Dugen is violating the agreement.
If Wei Jun suddenly held on and refused to let go, Dugen would have a headache if he gave in.
After thinking for a long time, Bu Dugen made up his mind to point to the west.
"Come, I will take you westward!"
Budugen wants to take a gamble!
There is no Qin army stationed in Xiaoguan, so there is a high probability that there are no soldiers stationed in the street pavilion.
Anyway, if there is a war horse to travel, it will be a waste of time at most.
Even if there are soldiers stationed there, there is still a chance to break through.
The topography of the street pavilion does not mean that the city completely blocks the road.
No matter what, it is better than going directly to Guanzhong to conflict with the Wei army!
Naturally, the Xianbei soldiers had no objections.
As long as you can burn, kill, and loot, it's the same everywhere!
"Charge, the soldiers are pointing directly at the street pavilion!"
It is not that easy to walk from Chaona to Jieting. The army must move along the foot of Longshan Mountain.
When they reached the narrow place, the Xianbei army was even squeezed into a long strip.
Fortunately, Bu Dugen had experienced it all and was not too panicked.
The gap between Longshan before the street pavilion is not that far away, and is generally quite wide.
And there is a large open space in front of the street pavilion.
It was as if God had specially provided a camping place for the attackers.
It was precisely because he had predicted all this in advance that Bu Dugen kept urging the army to move on.
For a whole day and night, the Xianbei army did not take any long rest except to rest their horses and eat dry food.
Even the generals complained.
"Chanyu, why don't you take a rest? Warriors are all made of flesh and blood, and they can't help but suffer like this!"
Bu Dugen did not agree, but just comforted him.
"Keep on holding on, we're almost there."
After running wildly for another long time, the entire Xianbei army began to be filled with abuse.
tired!
So tired!
Most of these Xianbei soldiers have not been trained, but their age and physical fitness are more in line with the characteristics of soldiers.
Before the expedition, almost most of them were still grazing on the grasslands.
The hardships of crazy marching were simply unbearable.
More and more Xianbei generals began to come to Bu Dugen to vent their dissatisfaction, and many brave soldiers jumped over the rank to complain to Bu Dugen.
Seeing the soldiers' resentment getting higher and higher, Bu Dugen had no choice but to stop advancing.
If this continues, the army will have to mutiny.
This is the consequence of not having absolute control.
After the army stopped to rest, Bu Dugen stood on a high place and personally persuaded,
Keep describing how wonderful the scene ahead is.
What gold, silver, jewelry, food, wine and meat, beautiful women and children, etc.
Inexhaustible and inexhaustible!
Bu Dugen personally promised that the army would rob them at will.
Whoever grabs it belongs to whom, there will be absolutely no interference or restrictions.
As long as the Xianbei warriors are happy, they can do whatever they want!
Finally, resting and drawing pie finally allowed the aggrieved Xianbei warriors to gradually calm down.
Later, Bu Dugen asked various generals to persuade his soldiers.
After making sure that all the soldiers understood and had no resentment, they started to set off again.
In fact, Bu Dugen was also tired, and he didn't mean to be so.
It is really difficult to walk at the foot of Longshan Mountain.
There was simply no place to set up camp.
What if something goes wrong if you take a long break on a narrow road?
If the head and tail cannot look after each other, wouldn't the army be destroyed?
Fortunately, the short rest and Bu Dugen's description made the soldiers temporarily forget about their fatigue.
Gritting their teeth, and stimulated by a better life in the future, the army continued to move forward.
Finally, after a night, we arrived at the street pavilion.
At this point, the Xianbei army did not sleep a wink for three days and nights.
Fatigue filled every soldier and general, including Bu Dugen himself.
However, Bu Dugen still did not allow the army to set up camp or even rest.
Instead, he led his army close to the city wall of Jieting.
Nothing different from before.
Jieting City still stands in the middle of the road, with fences on both sides.
It was probably in disrepair and was already in disrepair.
The city gates were closed tightly, and a large flag with the word Qin was placed on the city wall.
But there was no one in sight, and the Qin-character banner was seriously damaged.
It was an obvious sign that no one had been there for a long time.
Bu Dugen did not take it lightly and kept observing the situation for fear of being plotted by the Qin army.
But no matter how you look at it, the entire city wall is lifeless, and no drawbacks can be seen at all.
No matter how you look at it, the street pavilions are all empty cities.
