Xubu Guduhou, who was on the top of the city wall, looked gloomy and uncertain when he saw the fierce fighting below.
"Chanyu, the city gate is about to be breached."
A subordinate came forward to report, his voice filled with fear.
Yu Furo had worn down their city defenses, and now Xiao Hange was attacking, and the generals under his command were so powerful that no one could stop them.
The Han army came with great force and was fearless of death. They were more terrifying than any other Han army they had encountered before.
"Go, retreat."
Xubu Gudu Hou ordered a retreat.
If they don't retreat now, the city will be captured and none of them will be able to escape.
Xubu Guduhou led 5,000 cavalrymen under his command and retreated from the north gate of Meiji City, leaving the horseless Xiongnu people to defend the city.
The leader was terrified of breaking out, and the already low morale completely collapsed.
As the Chanyu abandoned the city and fled, the other Xiongnu soldiers no longer dared to defend the city and fled one after another.
Not long after the cavalry broke out of the city, before they had gone far, they saw flames and shouts of killing in Meizhi City.
Meizhi City was broken.
Before Xubu Guduhou could rejoice, he saw a group of cavalry rushing out from the city gate, led by Xiao Hange.
Seeing this, Xubu Guduhou was so frightened that he almost died. He clamped his thighs together and rode away on his horse.
"Go, retreat."
The team led by Xubu Gudu Hou retreated, and Lin Han did not chase them far. His escape was just as he wished.
The cavalry fled north without baggage and food, so they must have needed food and supplies. As long as they were followed and pursued all the way, Xubu Guduhou and others would enter the Xianbei territory as Xi Zhicai said.
Meizhi City was captured.
Lin Han’s approach was very direct. He gathered the remains of the Huns who died in the battle and built a Jingguan outside Meizhi City.
The Jingguan is towering and terrifying.
Under this deterrent, no Huns dared to cause unrest in Meizhi City.
While reorganizing Meizhi City, Lin Han sent spies to keep an eye on Xubu Guduhou's escape route.
After breaking out of Meizhi City, Xubu Gudu Hou fled to Wuyuan County and headed towards Jiuyuan City via Manbo.
After waiting for two days, Bai Qi's troops sent back news that they had easily captured the big city of Shuofang and were leading their troops north to pursue Liu Bao's troops who had escaped and headed towards Shuofang City.
Now we have to drive the Southern Xiongnu into the desert and force the Xiongnu to swallow up the Xianbei.
Another one, the Great Xia Dynasty.
Jia Xu received the news that Lin Han had recaptured Meiji City and had led Xubu Gudu Hou and others to slaughter the remaining Hu tribes and drive them north.
Upon hearing the news, more than 100,000 soldiers of Daxia crossed the Ru River and marched towards Baishan.
A conspiracy against the Southern Xiongnu and Xianbei quietly began.
Lin Han did not stay in Meizhi City for too long. He left two thousand soldiers to guard Meizhi City and led his troops out, following the escape route of Xubu Gudu Hou, heading towards Manbo.
On the road, no one dared to stop him. The Hun bandits along the way, upon hearing the name of Xiao Hange, were frightened and fled away.
"Report to the general, Xubu Gudu Hou was refused entry into Jiuyuan City and led his troops towards Wuyuan City." The spy reported.
"Is Jiuyuan City occupied by the Huyan clan?" Lin Han asked Yu Furuo, who nodded.
After Qiangqu's death, the Southern Xiongnu were in internal discord and were still plotting and fighting.
Lin Han smiled and ordered the march to continue.
Outside Jiuyuan City, 50,000 soldiers and horses were lined up, looking very powerful.
On the top of the city wall, the leader of the Huyan clan looked down at Lin Han with a flickering look in his eyes.
Xiao Hange's reputation was terrifying, and news had just come out about the construction of a Jingguan outside Meiji City.
If Jiuyuan City is destroyed, there will be another Jingguan.
Bingzhou had been in chaos for a long time, and Jiuyuan City had been attacked many times, with its defenses in ruins and in disrepair.
He didn't think that the 20,000 soldiers in Jiuyuan City could withstand Xiao Hange's offensive relying solely on the dispensable city defense.
Just hearing the name of Xiao Hange has caused panic among the people in Jiuyuan City. If they are attacked, they will be defeated soon.
"General Xiao, those who participated in the rebellion were the Xubu clan and the Tugehu clan. It has nothing to do with my Huyan clan." The leader of the Huyan clan shouted.
"It has nothing to do with you, why don't you open the city and surrender?" Lin Han asked calmly.
"We don't want to surrender, so why are you forcing us? Xubu Gudu Hou has already fled to Wuyuan City. General Xiao can confidently go ahead and encircle and suppress them. We will not participate."
"wishful thinking."
Lin Han raised his hand high.
"Prepare to attack the city."
Seeing this, the leader of the Huyan clan was very anxious: "General Xiao, do you want to die together with us?"
"You are not worthy of dying together."
Lin Han ordered the drums to be beaten to attack the city.
Yufuluo's troops and the captured soldiers acted as the vanguard of the siege and rushed towards Jiuyuan City.
"Yu Fuluo, you traitor will be punished by God."
The leader of the Huyan clan was furious when he saw Yu Fuluo leading the charge. Xiao Hange used the Xiongnu to control the Xiongnu, and they killed each other, benefiting the Han people.
The dilapidated gate of Jiuyuan City was broken open in half an hour.
Seeing this, Lin Han in the rear immediately ordered the entire army to attack the city.
The Jingji Guards rushed towards the city gate frantically and entered the city together with the vanguard soldiers.
The shouts and screams merged into one, echoing throughout the city.
"Han dog thief, how dare you fight me?" The leader of the Huyan clan was furious when he saw his soldiers being killed. When he saw Lin Han, he seemed to want to choose someone to bite.
Lin Han raised his spear and beckoned at him calmly.
"Come."
"Come and die."
The leader of the Huyan clan rushed towards Lin Han with a scimitar, regardless of everything, as if he wanted to die together with Lin Han.
Phew~
As soon as he arrived in front of Lin Han, he felt a flash of cold light in front of his eyes, and severe pain invaded his head. Lin Han's indifferent appearance became the last scene he saw.
In just one round, the leader of the Huyan clan died at the hands of Lin Han, shot in the throat.
Lin Han swung the Pojun Spear in his hand and lifted up the head of the Huyan clan leader.
"You won't be killed if you surrender." Lin Han shouted.
Seeing their leader killed, the Huns who were still resisting wept and threw away their weapons. Many surrendered, while many fled.
Jiuyuan City was pacified.
More than 8,000 people were killed, 7,000 were captured, and more than 4,000 fled. They seized 20,000 dan of grain from Jiuyuan City, 2,000 good horses, and countless jewels and money from the Huyan family.
Lin Han really didn't kill the prisoners this time.
Yufuluo's 20,000 troops served as vanguards in Meiji and Jiuyuan cities, but now only 6,000 remained. He needed fresh cannon fodder to deal with the Xubu clan, Liu Bao, and the Xianbei.
The Battle of Jiuyuan City shocked the Southern Xiongnu tribe.
Lin Han used the same method to build a Jingguan outside Jiuyuan City with the corpses of the Huyan clan members, and placed the head of the Huyan clan leader on the top of the Jingguan.
In the two Jingguans of Meiji City and Jiuyuan City, the surrendered Xiongnu people in Bingzhou were kept silent.
Xubu Guduhou of Wuyuan City evacuated Wuyuan City overnight and fled north to Shoujiang City.
Yu Furuo looked at the Jingguan outside the city with a complicated expression.
Many of the corpses on top of the Jingguan were once his subordinates, especially the leader of the Huyan clan on the top of the Jingguan, who once worked with him but ended up like this.
While noticing, Yu Furuo looked in the direction of Lin Han and felt a bone-chilling chill.
This man is extremely cruel and ruthless.
At this moment, he didn't even have the thought of resisting. He just hoped that Lin Han would abide by the agreement with him and let Liu Bao's generals go.
On the other side, Liu Bao, who was driven out by Bai Qi's troops, had just entered Shuofang City. When he heard that Xiao Hange was building another Jingguan in Jiuyuan City, he was frightened and turned pale.
He did not dare to stay in Shuofang, and led his troops to flee to Guangmu, away from Xiao Hange's tribe, preparing to go north to Shoujiang City to meet Xubu Gudu Hou.
