Late March, AD 184.

Tan Shihuai, Murong Chui, and Zhang Liang assembled an army of 35 and launched a hasty attack on Bingzhou and Monan Commandery. Upon his return to Beidi, Suo Chao immediately began assembling defenses for Monan Commandery and Bingzhou. The Han army in Beidi was small, numbering only 16.

In Wuwei County, ten thousand soldiers stood in formation, their figures erect and unyielding, like towering pines. In Beidi County, another ten thousand soldiers were stationed, their gazes resolute, as if they could penetrate any obstacle.

Shuofang and Wuyuan Commanderies each had 20,000 soldiers stationed there. They stood majestically, like a pack of lions, radiating unparalleled authority. These 60,000 men provided solid support for Mo Nan Commandery, constantly prepared to resist the dual armies of Tan Shihuai and Murong Chui from Mo Bei.

In this tense atmosphere, every soldier was focused, their eyes revealing vigilance against the enemy and a desire for victory. Their movements were in perfect unison, and every drill was filled with power, as if demonstrating their strength to the enemy.

Tan Shihuai and Murong Chui looked at the well-organized Han army with awe in their hearts. They knew that this army was well-trained, well-equipped, and extremely powerful.

A trace of solemnity flashed across Tan Shihuai's eyes. He frowned slightly and said to Murong Chui:

"The Han army is indeed worthy of its reputation. We must act with caution and not underestimate the enemy." Murong Chui nodded, a serious expression on his face, and said:

"Yes, we must carefully observe their deployment and look for their weaknesses."

Northeast direction.

The 20,000 soldiers and horses of Yunzhong County are like an eagle spreading its wings; the 10,000 strong army of Dingxiang is like a dragon emerging from the sea; the 10,000 iron cavalry of Yanmen County is like a gust of wind and lightning, unstoppable. A total of 40,000 elite troops are determined to compete with Zhang Liang's army in the direction of Jizhou.

"Zhang Liang has 15 soldiers. His strength should not be underestimated!" Taishi Ci said to Ding Yuan, while frowning unconsciously and showing a worried look.

"Yes! There are still 10,000 cavalrymen in Yunzhong County. They are the armies of Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu." Ding Yuan nodded slightly, with a hint of certainty in his tone.

"In addition, there are 30,000 elite troops in Shuofang County, all of whom are the brave soldiers under the command of General Zhenbei and are commanded by General Ran Min himself." A hint of admiration flashed in Ding Yuan's eyes, and he was full of confidence in Ran Min's ability.

.....

Mo Nan County, where Suo Chao’s military camp is located.

"Generals! If Monan County is invaded by the enemy, we can request assistance from Wuwei County, Beidi County, and Shuofang County."

"The Xianbei cavalry is not good at attacking cities, so the best strategy is to defend the city." Suo Chao's expression was serious and his tone was firm.

"However, the northern front is too long. If the Xianbei army concentrates its forces to attack the weak points of the Han army's defense line, the situation will be very dangerous." Suo Chao explained while pointing to the map on the wall.

"Generals! The war is urgent. I wonder where General Ran Min is?" Suo Chao asked

Zheng Hewen slowly stood up and answered.

"General, Murong Ke has been provoking us from under the city walls for the past few days."

“The words you yell at are awful to hear.”

As soon as General Ran Min heard Murong Ke's name, he became furious.

Without a word, he led 2 elite soldiers to launch a surprise attack on Murong Ke."

"Not good, Murong Ke is cunning! I have to go and provide support."

"Mr. Zheng, how many mobile forces do we have now?"

"General, Shuofang County still has 1 mobile troops."

"Mr. Zheng, you must hold on to Monan County. Prepare plenty of golden arrows, and set up horse traps and fire traps under the city walls."

"Good General"

"General Yan, you will be stationed in Beidi County!"

"promise!"

"In Bingzhou, we must cooperate with Governor Ding and General Taishi Ci to defend the city. General Lu Bu will soon be transferred to Jiuyuan Commandery, and then our pressure will be much less."

"Everyone, are you clear?"

"General, we understand!"

After Suo Chao arranged the defense, he led 1 elite cavalry to rescue Ran Min.

Towards Julu.

General Lu Zhi of the Northern Palace led 15 elite soldiers, all of whom were brave and skilled in battle. In addition, newly recruited soldiers from the region also accompanied Minister Lu on the expedition. Their momentum was high, and they were determined to confront Zhang Jue's main force of Yellow Turbans.

After Suo Chao left, Tan Shihuai's 8-strong army provoked Zheng Hewen at the city of Mo'nan County, but Zheng Hewen ignored them all.

The Xianbei cavalry's siege capabilities were limited. Repeated probing attacks resulted in heavy casualties. Tan Shihuai ordered his troops to construct siege equipment and to resume the battle at a later date.

Compared to Monan County, the situation in Yunzhong County was less optimistic. Murong Chui built a large number of ladders and catapults.

Faced with the relentless attack of 100,000 Xianbei troops, Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu were unable to withstand the attack and sent people to ask for help from Governor Ding.

When Ding Yuan learned of the situation in Yunzhong County, he immediately sent General Taishi Ci to lead 10,000 elite cavalry to reinforce Yunzhong County.

In the northern desert, Ran Min hid during the day and moved at night, and had already circled behind the armies of Murong Chui and Tan Shihuai. The purpose of his trip was to launch a surprise attack on the Xianbei king's tent.

"Report! General, a 2-man Han cavalry has circled behind our army. They are marching rapidly northward, and their target seems to be our royal tent."

Ran Min led 2 troops to the north. Murong Ke, knowing the importance of the royal tent, hurriedly led 2 cavalry to rescue him.

However, Ran Min's actions were extremely swift, like lightning.

"Damn it! We need to go faster!"

Under the cover of night, Ran Min's army successfully approached the Xianbei royal tent and launched a surprise attack, taking the Xianbei by surprise.

The Xianbei ministers in the royal tent panicked and fled in all directions. Ran Min led the charge, brandishing his weapon and charging into the enemy group, causing a bloody storm.

Soon, Murong Ke arrived and saw the bloody royal tent, a chill ran down his spine.

"Fortunately, we made arrangements in advance and evacuated the clansmen of the five elders in advance."

This surprise attack put Murong Ke in a passive position. He had to distract himself to deal with the crisis in the rear, and the originally planned siege was forced to be postponed.

"Damn it! I underestimated the enemy! I won't be happy until this guy is eliminated!"

At Murong Ke's command, his army rushed towards Ran Min like a surging tide. Ran Min's army, like a whirlwind, stubbornly attacked the heartland of the Xianbei.

In the end, the two men met in a battle deep in the northern desert as if it was a fateful duel.

"Ran Min, haha! You can't escape from my grasp this time, too?"

"Oh! Really? Then come on over here!"

Murong Ke narrowed his face slightly and looked at Ran Min angrily.

"If you dare to attack our royal tent, you will never return."

"Stop the nonsense. 2 versus 2. This time, you and I are both cavalry. Let's have a fair fight."

"court death!"

Murong Ke shouted loudly and launched the Heavenly Steps to attack the city and capture the stronghold.

"Attack the city and capture the stronghold!"

慕容恪的武力值从95提升到100点。士气从300降至100点,又快速回复至230。慕容恪挺枪杀出。

Ran Min wielded his double-edged spear and thrust it forward. He used the divine martial art "Kill the Hu Order," increasing his strength from 97 to 107 and reducing his morale from 300 to 0.

"Kill Hu Ling!"

Murong Ke, whose Strength was 100, was at a disadvantage against Ran Min, whose Strength was 107. Murong Ke's face was solemn. He shouted softly, converting 20 points of Physical Fitness into 200 points of Morale. His Morale ↑↑↑↑ to 300 points.

Murong Ke activates his God-level attack. His strength increases by 5 points. His strength increases from 100 to 105.

The two men fought fiercely, like dragons emerging from the sea or tigers descending from the mountains, back and forth, for hundreds of rounds. The clash of spears and double-edged lances was incessant, sometimes with a thunderous "bang bang" sound.

"Boom!"

"Ping Pong!"

Sometimes it sounds like a sudden storm, with the sound of clanging non-stop.

"Qiang Qiang"

"Crack!"

Ran Min and Murong Ke were engaged in a fierce battle, with neither side able to determine the winner. Suddenly, Tuoba Tao's 2 reinforcements arrived, disrupting Ran Min's formation.

"General Ke, I'm here to help you!"

"General Tuoba, your reinforcements are like divine help?"

"Haha, General Ke! This man is no ordinary man!"

"Haha, my sworn enemy! I must keep him here today."

"Okay, let's go together!"

Although Ran Min's army was brave, they were outnumbered and could only fight and retreat. Murong Ke pursued them relentlessly and was about to surround Ran Min and his men.

At the critical moment, Suo Chao arrived with reinforcements, brandishing the Nine-Glory Thunder Spear, bathing in lightning.

"Total Annihilation!"

"Kill in all directions!"

Suo Chao rushed into the enemy army, and wherever he went, the Xianbei soldiers fell to the ground.

"General Ran, let's fight off the bandits together!"

"Haha, just what I wanted!"

The Han army's reinforcements arrived, boosting morale to 30 points. Ran Min led his men in a counterattack. A fierce battle ensued, the cries of killing deafening.

"General Tuoba, they are exhausted, let's attack together."

"Haha, we have more and more reinforcements!"

As daylight approached, Suo Chao realized the situation on the battlefield was unfavorable to his side, so he decided to break out. He led a group of troops to the side to attract the enemy's attention, while at the same time telling General Ran Min's troops to take the opportunity to retreat.

"Ran Min, don't run!"

Murong Ke realized Ran Min's intention and immediately divided his troops to pursue him, but Suo Chao led his troops to entangle the enemy tightly, buying time for Ran Min.

"Soldiers, follow me!"

The two sides chased each other. Although this surprise attack failed to kill all the members of the Xianbei royal family, it caused them considerable trouble.

The five elders went on the expedition together. Murong Ke made arrangements in advance and hid important royal members and ministers in advance.

Moreover, there were many civil and military officials in the Xianbei king's tent, who were responsible for the dispatch of food and fodder for the rear of the army.

This surprise attack was like a wake-up call, which had a huge impact on the morale of the Xianbei army and temporarily disrupted its strategic deployment. The purpose of the surprise attack was achieved.
