Just when Zhang Liao and Guo Jia had just won the victory on the eastern front.

The Xianbei central army was about to arrive at Yanmen.

At dawn, Murong Jing personally led 30,000 troops as the vanguard to conduct reconnaissance.

In the past, 30,000 Xianbei cavalrymen were enough to sweep across Bingzhou. Now, because of Liu Yao's appearance, they can only serve as reconnaissance troops to open the way for the rear troops.

"Chief, we saw many Han army sentries along the way. Don't we need to avoid them?"

A general rode his horse to Murong Jing and asked.

"Hehe, even if we are discovered by the Han army, what can we do? We have a total of fifteen armies, and Liu Yao only has these people. He has to divide his troops to support the Xiongnu. Humph! Although Yanmen is Liu Yao's old nest, Yanmen Pass is a natural barrier."

"But Liu Yao can't defend with all his strength. The Xiongnu in the east can at least gather 70,000 or 80,000 cavalry. Everyone is good at riding and shooting. They can only fight with consumption! I dare to be sure that the eastern tribes will definitely not want to fight with the Xiongnu. They just want to entangle."

"Look at us! We only need to besiege the city, no need to fight, wait for the western tribes, break through Shuofang, bypass Yanmen, and form a double-team . "

"By that time, Yanmen Pass will be in chaos! Our army can take advantage of the situation to capture Yanmen Pass and chop off Liu Yao's head!"

"By that time, He Lian, that kid, will never be able to stand on our heads again! I will definitely pull this man off his horse!"

"Don't worry, go into the forest boldly, I don't think they dare to divide their troops to ambush us!"

"Even if it is an ambush, our 30,000 elite soldiers are not afraid of the Han people! What's more! We have more than 100,000 troops behind us to support us! What's there to worry about?"

The general heard it and didn't say much, but continued to follow Murong Jing to move forward.

But they didn't know that there was a bush not far from them. A soldier covered with weeds and wearing a khaki top was lying on the ground, monitoring the every move of the Xianbei army.

Because they were in the forest, and the distance was ten meters away, and there were weeds all over the side, it was difficult for normal people to find his figure.

This person was one of Luowang's spies. He was originally going to go out to investigate the situation on the western front, but he ran into the Xianbei vanguard led by Murong Jing.

Hehe, luck is here, and it can't be stopped!

Luowang's spy hurriedly got up carefully and quickly passed the information back.

Wang Yue, who was in Yanmen, informed Liu Yao immediately after receiving the news.

Liu Yao found Tian Feng as soon as he received the news.

"Hehe, this Murong Jing is really bold! He has to take a shortcut to the mountains instead of the vast plains."

Tian Feng looked at the map and his expression suddenly changed.

"My Lord! I have a plan to defeat the vanguard of the Xianbei army!"

"Xian Jing, if they go through the mountains and forests, they must camp in the mountains and forests at night. If we use fire attack, we can kill them all! This is a good idea!"

"Now everything is reviving, and the snow has almost melted. We can really use fire to burn the enemy camp!"

"Let Xu Chu do it."

At this time, Liu Yao looked at Xu Chu.

"My Lord! Don't worry! I will definitely make sure that the Xianbei thieves have no way to escape!"

After saying that, Xu Chu walked out of the commander's mansion, selected several thousand soldiers, and followed him away.

...

On the night of the second day.

Then a team of Han soldiers sneaked into the mountains and forests to look for traces of the Xianbei camp.

As expected, they found a large area of ​​fire in a valley.

Xu Chu looked at the trees around the Xianbei army and couldn't help grinning.

"Hehe, in order to make it easier to chop wood and cook, they actually set up camp next to the woods. If that's the case, don't blame me, Xu Chu."

Zhang Liao is now constantly attacking everywhere, and has already made many military achievements. It would be a lie to say that he is not envious.

This time, if he can seize this opportunity, he can also accumulate more military merits, so that his lord can give him a general, and he can also honor his mother.

At this time, the scout came to report.

"General Xu Chu! We have confirmed that almost all the Xianbei vanguards are in this big tent! And their defense is very lax, and the outer guard posts have been cleared by the brothers!"

"Okay! Everyone! Today is a good opportunity for us to make achievements! We want to turn these Xianbei vanguards into roast suckling pigs!"

"Send a signal! Let all the soldiers start to encircle!"

"Woo!!!"

Accompanied by a strange whistle, the Han army ambushed around the Xianbei camp also blew the whistle.

"Huh? Why are there so many whistles outside?"

At this time, Murong Jing, who was drinking in the big tent, walked out of the big camp with a glass of wine in his hand.

Pah! Pah!

Accompanied by a series of pipes being thrown into the camp.

Murong Jing was a little confused. Who would throw clay pots into his own camp in the middle of the night?

If it was a sneak attack, shouldn't it be a volley of arrows?

Just when he was still a little confused.

The Han army, about a hundred steps away from the Xianbei camp, lit the fire arrows at this time.

"Shoot!!!"

Suddenly, the rockets were fired!

Countless rockets were like raindrops, smashing into the Xianbei camp crazily.

The snow on the ground that had not yet completely dissipated had no effect on the spread of the fire because of the kerosene.

The surrounding dead grass and trees were ignited by the years, and coupled with the breeze in the mountains, the fire instantly surrounded the entire Xianbei camp.

"Hahaha! Let you Xianbei bastards have a taste of our power!"

Xu Chu looked at the fire that could no longer be reversed, and his face flushed with excitement.

"Pass the order! Order the crossbowmen to block the entrance of the camp. There are waves of fire all around, and they can't get out!"

"Use our crossbows to shoot the remaining Xianbei people!"

The Xianbei camp was completely in chaos. Most people were actually in sleep. Unexpectedly, someone dared to attack the camp.

Because of the fire, their war horses became extremely irritable and fled. Many people were even trampled by thousands of horses in their sleep and were directly trampled into meat paste.

At this moment, Sima Jing was already scared to death!

He was sweating all over his body.

"Chief! What should we do?" The general beside him asked in a trembling voice.

They have been fighting for the grassland for many years, and have never encountered such a situation. The flames that soared to the sky reached several meters, but the fire at the entrance of the camp was smaller.

Murong Jing shouted: "Order everyone! Break out from the camp gate! I have 30,000 troops! Can't we break out?!"

"Everyone, follow me!"
