In fact, the Xianbei Khan had already arrived long ago with an army of nearly 170,000 to 180,000 men after regrouping.

Having learned that the Xiongnu were lying in wait in Gu County and had not made any moves, they did not take any action rashly!

Seeing another seven or eight Xiongnu soldiers heading towards Gu County to join forces, he was also weighing the losses of this war...

Fighting a war is like doing business. If you kill 10,000 enemies but lose 8,000 of your own, it's not worth it and doesn't count as a victory.

Therefore, he also wanted to test his son-in-law and son to see how much potential they had for a counterattack.

The Xianbei Khan didn't even inform Murong Lie and his men of their arrival!

Therefore, when the Xiongnu army advanced into the Yanshan Mountains, they did not take action until the Xiongnu people had completely fled outwards, at which point they took them all in and completely annihilated the enemy army!

This can be considered a complete revenge for the siege of Lone Wolf Mountain!

In this battle, Jiang Ming's Yan army and the Xianbei allied forces directly annihilated 200,000 of the main Xiongnu force!

Thus, the strategic balance on the steppe was reversed, and for a considerable period of time, the Xiongnu were no longer able to pose a threat to the Central Plains states or other nomadic peoples of the steppe...

The Xianbei became the true "boss" of the Yanbei grasslands!

The slaughter continues inside the canyon...

Many Xiongnu people knelt down and surrendered, but Jiang Ming's order before the war was: no surrenders accepted, all to be executed!

The reason is simple!

We must create sufficient psychological deterrence on the enemy, making them shudder and fearful at the mere thought of the Yanshan defense line!

Knowing that this place is a "meat grinder" from which there is no return, trying to get back alive is harder than a camel crawling through the eye of a needle!

Otherwise, if any Tom, Dick, or Harry dared to invade the "Northern Hebei Base Area," what would that be like? We must annihilate them no matter the cost!

The battle raged from morning until dusk, and the entire Yanshan Mountains were filled with the acrid smell of burning human protein and fat, as well as the pungent odor of burning wolfsbane...

After the dust settled, Jiang Ming began cleaning up the battlefield.

The hillsides were littered with the remains of fallen horses; the Hun sabers were quite formidable...

The armaments of hundreds of thousands of troops are enough for Jiang Ming to expand his military equipment, so this money is saved again.

Just as he was calculating how much he could make from this deal, a Xianbei soldier came to report: "Your Highness, the Khan requests your presence!"
