Chapter 473: Lure the Enemy Deep Into the Territory

Qin Heng ordered to move to Wencheng County as planned.

"Let's go!"

The soldier below didn't respond, "Where are you going?"

"Let's retreat to Wencheng County and leave this place to Mr. Qin Liu."

"A Sheng, I'll leave this to you." Qin Heng said before leaving.

Qin Sheng: "Don't worry, brother, I'll take care of everything."

Outside the city, the Xianbei camp had a depressing atmosphere.

able-bodied soldiers clearing the camp.

They quickly cleared a place. After Tuobalian and Yuchirui moved in, the wounded were moved in one by one.

Some soldiers went to carry the bodies and bury them, others went to search for war horses in the wild, and the rest packed up the remaining strategic supplies.

Most of the camps were destroyed, and the food and grass were burned. They salvaged a few remnants, which could probably sustain them for two or three days.

Tuoba didn't even say a word.

Father Khan assigned him 3,000 cavalry, but now he only has more than 800 normal horses left.

Last night, those people took away more than 400 horses.

The others were let go, and they recovered more than 800 of them alive, some dead, and some seriously injured and difficult to treat.

As for the teams that search in the wild, I don’t know how many more they can find.

The dead horses are being processed in the camp and ready to be killed and eaten.

When Tuoba Jin led his troops, he saw such a scene of the camp being ravaged.

Tuoba Jin was invited to the temporary camp where Tuo Balian stayed temporarily.

"What's going on?"

Yuchi Rui replied, "We were attacked by Longcheng soldiers last night."

"Do you know who did it?" Tuoba Jin asked. It was a serious problem to turn Lao Qi's camp into this.

Yuchi Rui: "Just listen to them calling the leader Liu Ye."

Tuoba Jin pondered, "I heard that the generals guarding Pingzhou include the sons of Qin Yue, the Duke of Dali Town." That's why Pingzhou became difficult to conquer.

Tuoba Jin has not fought in Pingzhou yet, so he doesn't know yet. The level of Pingzhou's soldiers has also improved compared to before.

Yuchi Rui frowned, "Didn't Qin Yue die in battle the year before last?"

The other party almost wiped out the Qiang and Hu tribe. Later, the remaining Qiang and Hu tribe were so frightened that they left their hometown and went to live with their Xianbei tribe. Today's Qiang and Hu tribes are completely out of control.

Tuoba Jin explained the relationship between the Qin family and Pingzhou governor Lu Desheng.

"Master Liu?" Hearing this title, Tuoba even remembered that when he was escaping last year, he was stopped by a tender-faced guy named Master Liu. Even his two generals, He Lanhui and He Xiji, were both Death by his hands.

This sixth master should be that sixth master. For a time, old and new hatreds surged into Tuobalian's heart.

"What's the loss?" Tuoba Jin asked.

"The camp was almost completely destroyed, and the food and grass were burned. Some were salvaged, which was only enough to last for three days. Of the more than 3,000 horses, only more than 800 were left. The 30,000-strong army suffered more than 10,000 casualties last night, among which the cavalry battalion suffered heavy losses. Severely damaged, there are currently about 13,000 people with full combat capability.”

Hearing this report, Tuoba Jin took a breath of cold air, "Tuo Ba Lian, what do you do for food? Why are you so badly injured?" Don't you patrol at night? Otherwise, how could three or four hundred people have entered the camp without even knowing it?

"Underestimating the enemy and neglecting one's duties, think about how to explain to Father Khan!"

After Tuoba Jin finished speaking, he was about to get up when he was stopped by Tuo Balian, "Second brother, help me!"

Tuobalian knew very well that his father Khan must be very disappointed with him after this failure and the capture in the middle of last year, twice in succession. He is expected to be eliminated from the line of successors by his father Khan.

He hoped that his second brother could lead him to overcome his crimes, so there was still some hope.

Tuoba Jin raised his eyebrows, "Reason?"

Tuoba gritted his teeth and said, "Help me this time, I will stand by your side in the future!" His hope of becoming the heir was slim, so he must choose an elder brother to take sides.

"Okay." Tuoba Jin agreed.

He was originally here to support Lao Qi, but now the main force has become himself. Furthermore, with the second army like this, how could he not attack Dragon City?

Now, Bai has an ally.

"Second brother, you have to help me avenge tonight." Tuoba asked repeatedly.

"good."

"After capturing Dragon City, I will slaughter all the Han people in the city!"

"Little things."

Dragon City, Wilderness

Gao Lei and a small team of men and horses were lying in the dense forest. There was a war horse tied under a big tree not far away. Their men teased it from time to time and made it neigh.

Sure enough, it didn't take long before sounds came from far and near.

Not long after, a Xianbei team of about ten people appeared. They were almost riding two horses, with more than twenty horses.

"Quick, there is a mare grazing right here!"

With mental arithmetic but no intention, the Xianbei team was focused on finding the horse, but accidentally fell into the trap set by Gao Lei and others.

After a fight with great disparity in strength, Gao Lei led his men to collect the spoils.

All the team members were very excited.

"Head, a total of twenty-four war horses have been captured!"

"Get rich, get rich!"

"Take them back! Take them all back!"

No matter where they are, war horses are in short supply. The market sells at least 300 taels per horse, and the normal price for good horses is 500 taels.

Mr. Liu promised that for every war horse captured, he would be rewarded with thirty silver coins as a military merit.

For them, thirty taels is just thirty taels, and a little bit is worth a little bit.

"We have to work harder lately."

"That's right, since Mr. Liu left us behind, we can only play in the field."

During this mission, they were left behind. Chen Jinlong and his men could follow the Sixth Master on big missions, but they could only take on small missions. For a moment, everyone felt a sense of crisis. As for military merit, they would get as much as they could and try not to be left behind by Chen Jinlong and his men.

Longcheng, city gate

After a tentative attack, Tuoba Jin found that the city gate of Longcheng was somehow strong.

During the second attack, he directly gave up the attack on the city gate and climbed up the city.

The Xianbei people were tall and strong, and they were also very strong. If they fought against the Pingzhou soldiers, they would not be afraid at all.

Tuoba Jin gave a command, and under the cover of the catapults, the Xianbei soldiers set up ladders and bravely went up.

Qin Sheng and others were on the city tower, and it could be seen that the Xianbei were very determined to attack the city in this battle.

After all the defensive materials in the city were used up, Qin Sheng and his men withdrew as planned.

After Tuoba Jin captured Longcheng, Tuoba Lian found that the entire Longcheng was empty and there was no one for him to kill.

He was so angry that he ordered people to burn down the county government office of Longcheng County and the streets on both sides.

Tuoba Jin didn't care about these. For him, if he could successfully take over the salt lake in Longcheng, everything would be worth it.

The subordinates reported, "Second Prince, Seventh Prince, we found traces of the enemy's withdrawal."

"Where?"

"They went southeast."

That direction was the direction of the Longcheng Pharmacy.

"In addition, we also found this along the way."

Tuoba Jin saw that the thing in the soldier's hand was nothing else but chalk, and he was anxious.

Tuoba Jin remembered the tax grain that was burned by the Dali people in Feiru. The Dali people were so hateful. They wouldn't destroy the salt lake when they found that they couldn't defend it, right?

Tuoba Lian immediately said, "Second brother, I'll chase him!"

He rushed out, and the cavalry he led hurriedly followed, followed by the infantry.

"Bring more people, pay attention to ambush!"
