Chapter 416: Estrangement

As Li Ling expected, Baha's morale was greatly reduced after being captured alive by Li Ling twice. He no longer dared to send troops rashly and ordered his soldiers to strictly guard the camp.

Baha learned about Li Ling's power, and was thinking hard about how to deal with it, when an undercurrent surged in the Xiongnu King's city.

Baha is the daughter of the late Yan family of Maodun, the Xiongnu Chanyu, while Xieha is the daughter of the current Yan family of Maodun. Baha is brave and has the support of his mother's Yizhi tribe. He has been defeated by the old Chanyu.

He was appointed as the heir. However, the old Chanyu, the current Yan clan Xubu and his son Xieha, have always been eyeing the throne.

On this day, the old Chanyu received the news of Baha's defeat again. He was feeling depressed in his tent when his Yan family's Xubu came in and asked the old Chanyu: "Why does the king look like this? But the prince, he

Have you suffered a defeat?"

When Old Shanyu saw that she was his beloved wife, he relaxed his brows slightly and sighed: "The general sent by Daqi this time is Li Ling. This man has a rare reputation and is a god in using troops. I'm afraid Baha is not his."

Opponent."

Xu Bu replied: "The Han people have a saying that 'victory and defeat are common matters in military affairs.' Even if the eldest prince is brave and invincible, it is not surprising that he will lose one or two battles occasionally. I believe that the eldest prince will eventually defeat the Han people and win the victory."

Go to those cities in the north to realize his grand ambitions."

When the old Shanyu heard this, he frowned again and snorted: "I didn't agree when he wanted to lead the troops out. Although Daqi is now poor and weak, there are still some capable people. Now he has met Li Ling

Such a formidable opponent will cost many brave men."

Xu Bu stepped forward to rub Old Shanyu's back and shoulders, and replied with a smile: "Our grassland warriors have always been proud of the blood-stained battlefield. As long as the eldest prince can be safe and sound, even if he can't win the Han Dynasty for the time being, he will be able to win in the future.

There is still a chance.”

As she said this, she secretly winked at Sidon, a close minister who stood beside her and Xieha.

Xidun understood, stepped forward and continued what Xu Bu said: "I heard that the eldest prince was defeated by Li Ling twice and was captured alive by the Qi army. Li Ling not only did not make things difficult for the eldest prince, but also released him alive. This is indeed a bit strange.

"

Old Shan Yumao Dun was also a powerful hero when he was young, but now that he is older, not only his temper has become weirder, but he has also become more and more suspicious.

What bothered him was the fact that Li Ling let Baha go without any reason.

Logically speaking, if Daqi captured Prince Shanyu alive, even if he did not want to intensify the conflict and kill him, he would still put forward some harsh exchange conditions.

Li Ling captured Baha twice, but did not ask them any conditions. This fact really puzzled Lao Shan.

When Xu Bu heard this, he pretended to be surprised and said: "This is really strange. It would make sense to say that Li Ling was afraid of Shan Yu's reputation and did not dare to embarrass the eldest prince rashly, but he let him go so easily.

It’s really a bit strange.”

Sidon added: "The eldest prince has always been unruly and unruly. Now that he has encountered such a strange thing when fighting against Da Qi, Shanyu, you have to make more preparations."

After hearing this, Old Shanyu's face became more and more gloomy.

Xu Bu took the opportunity to say: "This time the eldest prince conquered Daqi, you Shanyu did not agree. He insisted on having his own way. Could it be that the eldest prince had evil intentions and secretly formed an alliance with Daqi in order to gain your position as Shanyu."

Although the old Chanyu Maodun was old, he was not completely confused. He turned his head and glared at Xu Bu fiercely, and said sternly: "Sooner or later, my position as Chanyu will be his, why is he like this? You woman

, don’t stir up trouble here.”

Xubu was scolded by the old Chanyu. She quickly knelt down and cried: "I was just worried about you so I said it bluntly. I have been working hard all these years when I was married to the Chanyu. Why have I ever felt sorry for your children? Chanyu is like this."

It’s really sad to say that to me.”

Xu Bu was only in her twenties, the age when a woman is most attractive. She was pretty and clever, so she was deeply loved by the old man.

When Old Shanyu saw his beloved wife crying so hard, he immediately softened his heart. He leaned over to help Xu Bu up, and said with his mouth shut: "I don't mean to blame you, but you are my Yan family, my

Those sons are also your children, and you should treat them well. If these words you say are spread, it will definitely cause trouble, do you understand?"

Xu Bu lowered his eyes and put on a delicate look, and murmured with tears in his eyes: "I understand, I just won't say anything more from now on."

When Old Shanyu saw his beloved wife's aggrieved look, he felt even more unbearable. He patted Xu Bu's hand and said, "You have always been docile. I am in a bad mood today, so I speak rudely."

Xu Bu quickly replied: "I know that Shanyu really cares about me, and I will definitely serve Shanyu from now on."

Although the old man and his young wife got back together, the fact that Baha was released by Li Ling without any reason was like a thorn, which cast a deep shadow in the heart of Lao Shanyu.

Baha hid in the camp for seven days, and Li Ling ordered his soldiers to beat gongs and drums outside the Xiongnu camp to mock him. Baha ordered his men to shoot arrows at random, and the soldiers retreated under cover of armor. The next day, at dawn

Early in the morning, there was another nuisance. This was repeated for three days. Finally, Baha couldn't restrain himself and led his army to confront Li Ling.

The two armies fought together, and Li Ling's army gradually became exhausted. Baha had suffered enough from Li Ling's losses and was worried that he would cheat again. After repelling Li Ling's army, he ordered to retreat. However, the Xiongnu army had been defeated in the past and was defeated by Li Ling again.

The army had been humiliated for several days, and everyone had suppressed their anger. Now that they saw the victory, they pursued them regardless of military orders.

The Xiongnu army pursued Li Ling's army closely, and they were cautious at first to prevent fraud. After ten months of pursuit, they saw that the flags of Li Ling's army were in chaos and the soldiers were defeated. Baha became bolder and regained his prestige.

He took the lead and led the Huns' cavalry straight towards Li Ling's army to kill them.

The army gradually entered the valley. Baha, who was eager to win, looked at Li Ling running in front of him. His eyes became red as he chased him. When Li Ling ran out of the valley on horseback, he heard shouts shaking the sky. The valley was filled with darkness and was filled with Daqi soldiers. Baha

Only then did Ha realize that he had fallen into Li Ling's trap again. He hurriedly retreated with his troops, but the entrance of the valley was already ablaze with gas. He led his troops towards the exit again, and the exit of the valley was also filled with flames.

This valley is called Hulu Valley, with a big belly and a small mouth. Li Ling used this tactic to fake a surrender. He wanted to take the trouble to lead the enemy troops into this valley and invite you to enter the urn. Tens of thousands of crossbowmen had already been ambushed here.

Li Ling, wearing gold and silver armor, stood majestically on the valley. As he gave his order, arrows rained down from the mountain, causing the Huns army to throw away their helmets and throw away their armour.

Li Ling wiped out the main Xiongnu army without any effort and captured the eldest prince Baha alive.
