The ninth son of the emperor was demoted at the beginning. I have a famous Chinese general.
Chapter 178: Western Xiongnu is destroyed
Ning Zhen returned to the mansion with a heavy heart. Just as he sat down, he suddenly heard hurried footsteps.
"Report, His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince of Hexi has sent troops!" The personal guards ran over and knelt in front of Ning Zhen.
"What? Ning Quan sent troops?"
Ning Zhen was surprised.
"Yes, Your Highness. The Ninth Prince is personally leading an army of 60,000 and is heading towards Xiping. They will arrive in about seven or eight days." The personal soldier said excitedly.
"Your Highness, this is good, now we are saved."
The deputy general beside him said happily.
With 60,000 reinforcements from Anxi and 20,000 reinforcements from Longyou, at least they are no longer inferior in terms of military strength.
There is absolutely no problem in rescuing Anxi, and there is even great hope of defeating the Tubo army.
"Haha, do you think Lao Jiu sent troops out of good intentions?"
"It is true that he came here for Tubo, but he also came here for me," Ning Zhen said with a cold snort.
"Your Highness, are you saying that the Ninth Prince will do something bad to you?" The deputy general's face changed drastically.
"Hmph, I have intercepted him twice and wanted to kill him. What do you think?" Ning Zhen said coldly.
"So that's how it is. I deserve to die. I didn't see the Ninth Prince's expression clearly. Please forgive me, Your Highness." The deputy general was frightened and kowtowed to admit his mistake.
"Never mind, it doesn't matter. At most, I'll just be more careful."
"As long as I defend Xiping and don't go out, does he dare to attack the city?" Ning Zhen waved his hand.
"Your Highness, Holy Ming!"
"Yes, send someone to inform the Longyou Army immediately and tell them to speed up their journey."
"As soon as the Longyou army arrives, we will immediately welcome them into the city. As for the Hexi army, we will let them fight the Tubo outside the city."
"I obey your command!" The deputy general bowed and accepted the order, then turned and left.
.......
Tibetan military camp!
Commander Aquinas stood under the general's flag, looking at Xiping City with a sinister expression.
"Commander, the scouts have sent news that Anxi has sent troops. The ninth prince is personally leading an army of 60,000 to attack. What should we do now?" Harut asked.
"I didn't expect Anxi to really send troops. Didn't he suffer any losses in the previous battle? Doesn't he need to rest?" Aquinas asked with a frown.
"There must be losses, but it doesn't look like they are big." Harut guessed.
"Well, that should be it."
"But in this case, it will be impossible for us to quickly take over Hexi." Aquinas thought for a moment.
"Then let's just destroy the Anxi Army together and solve the problem once and for all." Harut said fiercely.
"Yes, that's what I mean. I, the Tibetan warrior, am not afraid of anyone." Aquinas nodded.
"Okay, then I'll go down and prepare right away." Harut said.
"Hmph, since you're looking for death, I'll grant your wish."
After Harut left, Aquinas said coldly.
The fighting capacity of the Tibetan warriors is well-known throughout the world, and they are definitely more powerful and fierce than the Daqian soldiers.
With the same number of troops, the Tibetan soldiers would definitely win.
This is where his confidence lies.
Not to mention that he has backup. Forty thousand Nanzhao troops are on the way and will arrive within five days.
The Nanzhao Kingdom was a vassal of Tubo and always obeyed Tubo. This time, the Nanzhao Kingdom also participated in the military expedition to Hexi.
But Aquinas never expected that the 40,000-strong army of Nanzhao could no longer arrive.
Yue Fei was ordered to enter the Tibetan territory and conquered several Tibetan cities in succession. The Tibetan king Ashina She'er was horrified and hurriedly dispatched troops to stop him.
When Yue Fei was about to attack the heartland of Tubo, he unexpectedly discovered the Nanzhao army advancing towards Hexi.
Yue Fei immediately changed his strategy and led his army to chase after them.
At the same time, someone was immediately sent to inform Gao Xiang.
Three days later, when the two armies joined forces, Yue Fei surrounded the Nanzhao army in one fell swoop, and a fierce battle broke out.
The Nanzhao army had always been weak in combat effectiveness. After Yue Fei and Gao Xiang joined forces, their strength reached 50,000, giving them an advantage in terms of military strength.
The key point is that the Nanzhao army only had 5,000 cavalry, while Yue Fei and Gao Xiang's troops were all cavalry.
The result was without a doubt: in less than half a day, the Nanzhao army was completely wiped out, with only more than a thousand people escaping.
After the battle, Yue Fei immediately ordered Gao Xiang to escort the prisoners back, and then turned around and advanced towards Hexi, preparing to attack the Tubo army from behind.
This is the level of a famous general. Yue Fei's original mission was to harass Tubo and disrupt Tubo's layout.
Now, he changed his strategy and chose to destroy the main force of Tubo in one fell swoop.
Although Tubo was a powerful country, its population was actually not large, only over one million. Its strength was mainly due to the bravery and fighting skills of its warriors.
Once the Tubo army of 100,000 is destroyed, Tubo's strength will inevitably be greatly reduced.
.......
At the same time, thousands of miles away on the grassland, another great battle also came to an end.
Huo Qubing and Lu Bu led 30,000 cavalrymen and rushed for more than a month before arriving at the royal court of the Western Xiongnu, where they engaged in a fierce battle with the few remaining remnants of the Western Xiongnu.
After a brief confrontation, Huo Qubing beheaded nearly 10,000 people, completely defeated the remaining forces of the Western Xiongnu, and occupied the Western Xiongnu royal court in one fell swoop.
The main tribes of the Western Xiongnu, including the Huhan and Hulun tribes, were all annihilated.
The Uge, Bah, Sangmu and other ethnic groups all surrendered.
Only two or three small tribes fled to the Eastern Xiongnu.
Huo Qubing also took deadly action. He slaughtered all the people over the age of twelve from the main tribes, including the Huhan and Hulun tribes, regardless of gender.
The rest was distributed to the Huyan and Donghu tribes as spoils of war.
In this battle, the Western Xiongnu were completely destroyed.
Ningquan also suddenly had nearly 400,000 more people.
Of course, these people were all Huns.
However, Ning Quan didn't mind, as long as it was population.
The most amazing thing about Chinese culture is its integration.
Even if they are from other ethnic groups, as long as they integrate into Han society, they will sooner or later become Han people.
In addition, Ning Quan had an additional 30,000 cavalry.
Of course, these cavalrymen were all drawn from various tribes by Huo Qubing. This was Huo Qubing's old method.
This will not only increase one's own military strength, but also prevent rebellion from various tribes.
How can I rebel if I don’t have any men left?
.......
Due to distance issues, the news Ning Quan received was conveyed by Zhang Liao from Hulan.
Ning Quan couldn't believe it when he learned that Huo Qubing had destroyed the Western Xiongnu so quickly.
"Hahaha, General Huo is indeed worthy of being the greatest general of all time, the nemesis of the Huns."
After a moment of shock, Ning Quan burst into laughter.
The Western Xiongnu were destroyed, the Eastern Xiongnu were still licking their wounds, and the northwest direction of Hulun was completely safe.
Next, we just need to recuperate for a period of time, and then destroy the Eastern Xiongnu, and the Xiongnu threat can be completely solved.
"Your Majesty, General Huo is truly amazing." Li Jing also praised sincerely.
If this matter were handled by him, he might not be able to solve it as easily as Huo Qubing.
After all, the Huns are not that easy to deal with.
"Yes, General Huo is indeed amazing."
"However, General Li is equally extraordinary. With your help, I have no worries about failing to accomplish my great cause."
"Your Majesty, thank you for the compliment." Li Jing said respectfully.
"General Li, you don't have to be polite. I know your abilities."
"Now that the Western Xiongnu has been destroyed, the northwest will be stable for a short period of time. Should we transfer General Huo back?" Ning Quan looked at Li Jing and asked.
