Your fiefdom gains one soldier every second, what should you do, Queen Mother?

"Boom boom boom!"

The sound of drums was heard in Ying Xuanze's army. After the Wei Wuzu formed a square formation, they marched towards Jiarong Pass in unison.

Not long after Tu Bilie cleared his intestines, he felt a dull pain again, and a Hu soldier ran over.

He covered his stomach and shouted in pain: "General, no... It's bad, the Han army is coming to attack us."

Tu Bilie was shocked. He realized that he could not organize a counterattack because everyone, including himself, had lost their fighting ability due to the laxative.

Now they can’t even deal with an ordinary person, let alone the troops of Marquis Zhenxi.

"Retreat! Retreat quickly! Retreat to the grassland!" He gave the order immediately.

They couldn't stay in Jiarong Pass any longer, otherwise more than 10,000 of them would die here.

The Han people have an old saying that goes, "As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood." The Northern Hu have been recuperating for so long, and they will be able to take back Jiarong Pass sooner or later!

The Hu army, having received the order, began to withdraw from Jiarong Pass. On the other side, the attacking Wei Wuzu troops broke open the gate of Jiarong Pass.

The moment the gate was broken, Huo Qubing led the team in pursuit. When he passed by Ying Xuanze, he shouted:

"My Lord, I will lead the team to hunt down those barbarians! I will ensure that they are completely wiped out!"

Ying Xuanze shook his head: "Don't chase after desperate enemies, let them go."

"If I'm not mistaken, the Hu people should have troops to meet them. Rashly pursuing them will only put us in a passive situation."

"Let's first tidy up Jiarong Pass, and then we can discuss how to destroy the enemy."

Although what the master said made sense, Huo Qubing still felt that the time could not be delayed, so he clasped his fists towards Ying Xuanze and said:

"My Lord, that's true, but I still want to get some information."

"I only need one thousand cavalrymen. Once we get the news, we will return to the pass immediately and will never engage in a fight with the barbarians!"

Ying Xuanze thought of Huo Qubing's historical achievements, pondered for a while, and then agreed to his request.

After saying goodbye, Huo Qubing led a thousand Zhao cavalrymen and went into battle lightly. After leaving Jiarong Pass, he did not follow the retreat route of the Hu people, but went in another direction.

He led the team to march for a long time until the horses were tired, then he stopped the troops to rest and let the horses eat the grass nearby.

He noticed that there was a large hill in front of him, so he called several cavalrymen to climb the hill with him.

When the group was about to reach the highest point, Huo Qubing asked the soldiers to walk lightly with him, and then he bent over and walked slowly forward.

At the moment before reaching the top of the hill, all of them changed to crawling forward. After that, Huo Qubing raised his head and looked forward, seeing the situation ahead clearly.

It turned out that after the high slope was a long downhill slope, and at the end of the downhill slope there was a lake, and behind the lake there were a large number of tents.

Unlike the Han people, the Northern Hu people all lived in tents. They were a nomadic people who lived by following the water and grass, and they set up camp wherever they went.

Moreover, the grassland was their territory and no Han people would dare to come, so they never built any fortifications.

There are lakes and aquatic plants here, which are enough to feed these northern barbarians.

Huo Qubing thought for a while, touched his chin, and then retreated from the high slope with several cavalrymen.

After returning to the line, he led his troops around the high slope.

During this period, they all walked lightly, not to catch up with time, but to hide themselves as much as possible and avoid the Hu people.

In this way, after a long circle, Huo Qubing led his team to the rear of the Beihu tribe.

He counted the tents from a distance and found that there were roughly four to five thousand of them. If we assume that there were 20 people in each tent, that would mean there were more than people.

Excluding the 20,000 Hu soldiers, there were still at least 30,000 to 40,000 Hu soldiers in the tents in front of us, and the rest were the elderly, women and children.

"General, should we retreat and discuss with the lord first?" a cavalryman asked in a low voice.

Huo Qubing pondered for a moment and shook his head: "It takes too long to go back and forth, and if the master brings a large army here, both the noise and the target will be too big."

"After all, this is on the grassland, and it's someone else's territory. We can die, but we can never let the master take risks."

The cavalryman nodded and continued to ask: "Then what should we do?"

Huo Qubing narrowed his eyes slightly. After an unknown amount of time, he said in a deep voice, "Wait until it's late at night, then we can start."

"Pass on my order. Everyone, rest where you are. After nightfall, follow my orders!"

"Yes!"

......

In the evening, Jiarong Pass.

After dealing with the matters, Ying Xuanze regrouped his army and prepared to advance deeper into the grassland.

"My lord, aren't you waiting for news from General Huo? If we keep chasing them, will we fall into the trap of the Hu people?"

A deputy general rode up on horseback and came to Ying Xuanze's side.

He was a defender in Wancheng. Because he was stationed at the South Gate, he and his subordinates survived by chance.

Afterwards, he reorganized the combat-capable soldiers together and waited for the Marquis of Zhenxi's orders.

"General Huo has already advanced deep into the grassland. If we don't put some pressure on the Northern Hu people, General Huo and his troops will be in danger."

"Pass my order, move forward immediately!"

The deputy general dared not say much and had to obey the order.

Ying Xuanze was not worried about Huo Qubing's behavior of leading his army alone deep into the grassland. In the history of his world, Huo Qubing had done this many times.

The key point is that he got it done.

What he had to do was to help Huo Qubing share the pressure. With his existing military strength, he could ensure that he could retreat safely even on the grassland as long as the entire Hu army was not mobilized.

Ying Xuanze's troops began to march towards the grassland, while on the other side, Tustan led Tuoba Xuan and Tuoba Wu across the grassland and arrived at Jubei City.

Tuoba Wu looked at the ruined city with mixed feelings in his heart. He swore that he would turn the family of Marquis Zhenxi into ashes!

After leaving Jubei City, the group headed straight to Gaoliu City.

"General, Gaoliu City is ahead." A Beihu soldier came to Tustan on horseback.

Tustan nodded slightly, and he laughed softly, "The move I asked Tuoba Wen to make was indeed the right one. It was so easy to enter Xiliang from the grassland."

"It's a pity that such a good plan was ruined by you." He looked at Tuoba Wu beside him, who said nothing but clenched his fists tightly.

"Let's go. I guess the Marquis of Zhenxi didn't expect that he was fighting Tubilie and Kubiyan at Jiarong Pass, but we stole his rear."

"This Gaoliu City is bound to be a bloodbath tonight!"

"Haha! I'm excited just thinking about it. When we go back tonight, you will definitely be promoted, General!"

Tustan raised his nose, whipped his horse whip forward and shouted, "Let's go! Listen carefully, our target this time is Gaoliu City, don't move to other places for now."

"It's the general!"
