A thousand-year-old family begins with one fighting against ten thousand.

Yanmen Pass.

The Xiongnu cavalry arrived here one after another.

Countless Xiongnu people perished or were lost during the journey due to trampling on each other.

When the statistics for this battle were finally released, Maodun's heart was bleeding.

This is the capital he has to dominate the world.

Of the 400,000 elite troops accumulated through campaigns in the south and north, a full 30,000 are missing.

Wei Ping's side only has 10,000 troops in total.

"Did you find out? What was that Han general's name?"

Maodun, as expected of a great hero, quickly suppressed his anger.

"Chanyu, we've found him. The Han general's name is Wei Ping, that's it."

"He was a captain in the Han army."

A Xiongnu soldier stepped forward and reported to his superior.

"A captain?!"

"Captain!!"

What kind of official rank is a captain?!

After a moment of silence, Maodun asked again;

"Has the Han army changed the title of Grand General to Colonel? Now the Colonel is the Commander-in-Chief of the Han army?"

"Without the Chanyu, the prisoners at Yanmen Pass did not receive any orders regarding changes in their military ranks."

The soldiers trembled with fear when they recalled Wei Ping's ferocious power on the battlefield. He wasn't human; he was a devil!

King Xiutu jumped out, grabbing a soldier's collar. "You mean my trusted general was defeated by a mere captain!"

Yes, yes.

The soldier's face turned red from being strangled, and he stammered.

"Impossible! It must be false information from those Han generals. I'm going to kill them!"

"return."

Maodun said in a deep voice.

He pulled out his scimitar and slashed his face without hesitation. "I swear I will not rest until I avenge this!"

"Pass on my order: throw all the prisoners into the pot and cook them alive! I want the Han people to know the consequences of offending the Xiongnu!"

"promise."

The soldier was pushed away by King Xiutu as soon as he finished answering.

"Get out of my way, I'll go myself!"

A cruel smile crept across his lips, and the eyes of the King of Xiutu gleamed with a bloodthirsty green light.

"Report! It's terrible! The Han army! The Han army is attacking!"

Just then, a soldier rode up on horseback.

"What?!"

"Who is leading the charge?"

Maodun took two steps at a time and asked anxiously.

"Which demon has arrived!"

"Chanyu, let's retreat!"

"That's right, Chanyu. There's a saying among the Han people: 'Where there's life, there's hope.'"

"Chanyu, retreat! That devil is coming!"

"The Chanyu..."

"bass!"

Maodun beheaded the first man who shouted for retreat.

"Anyone who dares to suggest withdrawal will end up like this person."

"This time we have the formidable defenses of the Han cities. For the Han army to arrive, they would have to rely entirely on cavalry. And how many cavalry do the Han army have?"

"Besides, what kind of logic is there in cavalry attacking a city? Do you think the Han army can fly up here?"

"Chanyu, we only saw tens of thousands of cavalry, and no siege equipment."

Maodun's words put many Xiongnu nobles at ease, and the Xiongnu soldiers' response relieved them.

Maodun is right. With over 300,000 troops defending the city, how could they possibly be unable to withstand an attack by tens of thousands of cavalry?!

"Come, let's meet that Han general again!"

"Reporting to the Chanyu, the Han army has entered the city!"

Just then, another Xiongnu soldier galloped over at full speed, shouting at Modu Chanyu, followed by many of his fallen comrades.

Upon hearing this, everyone's first reaction was disbelief.

How could a mere tens of thousands of cavalry possibly possibly break through? The city walls aren't just for show!

Do you know what you're saying?

Maodun wanted to kill the man with one blow, but he also needed to get the battle report from him, so he held back.

"The Xiongnu Chanyu is here! Brothers, kill him!"

"Capture the Xiongnu Chanyu alive!"

"Capture the Xiongnu Chanyu alive!"

Before Maodun could ask any more questions, Wei Ping led his troops to attack.

......

Not long ago, Wei Ping, along with Fan Kuai and Zhou Bo, led a large army at full speed toward Yanmen Pass.

Just as they could see Yanmen Pass in the distance, Zhou Bo couldn't help but ask, "General Wei, the walls of Yanmen Pass are very high. We are all cavalry, without any engineering equipment. How will we attack the city?"

"Attack the city? Why attack the city? Just charge in!"

Wei Ping glanced at Fang Tianji and said casually.

Should we just charge in?

Is the city wall of Yanmen Pass just for show?

"General, you'd better make things clear. After all, it concerns the lives of so many soldiers. This is the entire cavalry of the Han Dynasty. If they perish here, we will both be sinners against the Han!"

Zhou Bo still didn't believe that Wei Ping was so brave; Liu Bang's description was too fantastical, even novels wouldn't dare to write it that way.

He had witnessed how powerful Xiang Yu was, but they could still exchange blows. He didn't believe a word Liu Bang said.

Wei Ping glanced at Zhou Bo but didn't say anything. He knew that even if he spoke, Zhou Bo wouldn't believe him, so it was better not to say anything.

If he didn't tell, Zhou Bo would assume he had some secret methods, such as an inside man, and might not do anything underhanded.

But if he couldn't say it, Zhou Bo would definitely turn on him.

"If the general doesn't tell me, then don't blame me for ordering a halt to the advance."

Zhou Bo felt a surge of anger when Wei Ping ignored him. He had followed Liu Bang since Liu Bang's time as a cavalryman.

To attack Dang County, first ascend Xiayi, Mengyi, Yuxian, Niesang, Linji, Shouzhang, Duguan, Dingtao, Nanyang, Wuguan, Yaoguan, and Xianyang;

He attacked Yong Chi, resisted Li You, destroyed Zhang Ping and Yao Ang, and pacified King Zang Tu of Yan...

He was renowned for his military exploits and accumulated numerous merits.

This Wei Ping is just a greenhorn, only recently a captain, yet he shows him no respect at all.

Don't honest people have any pride?

Moreover, the entire army had only one horse, except for Wei Ping, who had two. The horse following behind Wei Ping was an exceptionally fine Akhal-Teke.

"General, you can give it a try."

Wei Ping said coldly.

Zhou Bo felt a chill sweep over his entire body and was momentarily stunned by Wei Ping.

At this point, Yanmen Pass was already very close.

But Wei Ping still didn't order a stop, or even slow down.

The Xiongnu soldiers on the city wall also saw the approaching Han army and quickly sent someone to inform Modu.

Three hundred steps, two hundred steps, one hundred steps.

It's now!

Wei Ping took out his halberd, mobilized all his muscles, and stared intently at the city gate in front of him.

"Whoosh!"

The sound of the halberd piercing the air reached Zhou Bo's ears, and he stared blankly at Wei Ping's actions.

Is he planning to break down the city gate with a weapon?

How is that possible!

This is reality, not a fictional story!

But that sliver of possibility made him focus on the halberd piercing the air.

Fangtianji vanished from sight and reappeared in front of Yanmen Pass in the blink of an eye.

Yanmen Pass, as the foremost of the nine strategic passes in the north, has a city wall ten meters thick and a city gate one meter thick, weighing over a thousand kilograms.

In ancient times, it was considered indestructible.

However, due to its geographical location, the side closer to the Central Plains does not have a barbican. This was to facilitate a counterattack should Yanmen Pass be captured.

After all, Yanmen Pass is flanked by mountains, and it's impossible for a large army to fly to the side closer to the Central Plains.

However, the city gate on this side is no weaker than the one on the other.

No one would think of breaking down such a city gate; they would all choose to storm the city.

But Wei Ping did exactly that, and he succeeded.

As soon as the halberd made contact with the city gate, its enormous kinetic energy exploded instantly, blasting a large hole in the middle of the gate.

The bolt also broke.

Without the bolts blocking the way, the remaining kinetic energy successfully pushed the city gate open.

On the other side, Wei Ping had already dismounted from the dead horse, flipped over and mounted the Ferghana horse, and drew another halberd, raising it high.

"The city gates are open! Avenge our compatriots! Kill!"

"kill!"

Seeing Wei Ping's godlike performance, all the soldiers shouted loudly as if they were on stimulants.

Faced with the cavalry's speed, Baibu quickly passed them.

Wei Ping took the lead and charged into Yanmen Pass.

Without the protection of the city walls, these Xiongnu people, who had once been terrified by Wei Ping's killings, dared not confront him head-on.

One by one, they mounted their horses and galloped away, secretly grumbling in their hearts why the horse's mother couldn't give birth to an eight-legged horse.

Some clever ones fled directly towards the grasslands, but since Maodun had been in power for so long, many people still trusted him, so this group quickly went to report to Maodun.

Little did they know that this was exactly what Wei Ping wanted, and he easily found Maodun's whereabouts by following these people.
