Two days ago, Wei Qiutai had already led a large army to a place ten miles away from the water to set up camp. Every morning, he would lead his guards to the nearby mountains and look at the Han army's camp from afar. He found that something very interesting happened in the Han army camp. Every morning, the smoke in the camp was thinner than the previous day, and the smoke in the cooking was shorter, which showed that the Han army had indeed defected.

Wei Qiutai is a meticulous person. Although he saw the changes in the Han army camp with his own eyes, he refused to believe it easily. After all, the bloody lesson of the King of Dongchuan was right in front of him, and he had to be more careful to guard against the Han army's tricks. It was not until early this morning that Wei Yan stepped across the ice with anger to surrender, which made Wei Qiutai's affirmation deepen a little. He decided to interrogate Wei Yan carefully. If Wei Yan could explain the questions in his heart, he would be willing to completely believe in the situation he saw.

In the Wei Qiutai tent, Wei Yan stood in the center with his eyes wide open and looked at Wei Qiutai. Wei Qiutai stared at Wei Yan for a long time, but could not see any flaws on Wei Yan's face. Then he asked Lei Ran, "Who are you?"

Wei Yan replied loudly: "Wei Yan, the general of the Great Han cavalry."

Wei Qiutai laughed and said teasingly: "I am the general of the Han Dynasty. What should I do when I run to my tent?"

A look of resentment flashed on Wei Yan's face and said loudly: "The champion Hou Ao Lie is unclear in rewards and punishments. Someone told him bluntly, but he turned a deaf ear to him and angrily scolded him. Someone was disgusted, so he came to offer advice to the king and defeat Ao Lie's troops together. After the matter was completed, except Ao Lie, the other surrendered soldiers of the Han army must be handed over to someone to deal with."

Wei Yan's words attracted Wei Qiutai's attention and he asked: "What do you want those surrendered soldiers to do?"

Wei Yan replied: "A real man was born between heaven and earth and should have accomplished a great cause. There are 20,000 troops by the Nanshui River. Although he has defected in the past few days, there are still six or seven thousand people left. If someone can get these people, he can rush his troops south and occupy Goguryeo. At that time, someone will be the lord of a country, and you and me will join forces. Who dares to underestimate it?"

After hearing Wei Yan's explanation, Wei Qiutai suddenly realized in his heart. It turned out that Wei Yan wanted to recruit surrendered soldiers of the Han army, then capture Goguryeo, and proclaim himself king. Wei Qiutai had also heard of Wei Yan's reputation and knew that Wei Yan was a rare general in the Han army. Even King Wuhuan Qiao was killed by him on the battlefield. In Wei Qiutai, it was believed that people like Wei Yan would be unwilling to live in the long term. It was reasonable to proclaim himself king. What's more, Ao Lie took his anger on Wei Yan because of the defection of the soldiers. Wei Yan was able to endure Wei Yan until today, which was beyond Wei Qiutai's expectations. Wei Yan was scolded loudly by Ao Lie every morning, and spies lurking near the Han army had already heard about Wei Qiutai's knowledge.

Then, Wei Qiutai asked another question in his heart: "Ao Lie is known as a little overlord, and has experienced many battles and is invincible. Since the Han army has already seen a large number of deserters, why did Ao Lie insist on setting up a camp opposite the Nanshui and refuse to withdraw?"

"It is precisely because he has been invincible in battle that Ao Lie has become arrogant and arrogant now, and is completely gone. There are two reasons why he refuses to withdraw his troops. First, he wants to follow the example of Xiang Yu, the King of Chu, who was entrenched in Goguryeo; second, Zhang Xiu, who is now entrenched in Goguryeo, is Ao Lie's junior brother. I believe that Zhang Xiu will send people to support Ao Lie soon. After Zhang Xiu sends his troops, Goguryeo will inevitably be empty, which is another reason why he wants to conquer Goguryeo." Wei Yan answered calmly.

It seems that what Wei Yan said is true. There are indeed only thousands of people left in the Han military camp, and most of the others have escaped. Otherwise, facing the chaos in front of him, there would be no more than a few thousand people calling. As soon as he thought of this, Wei Qiutai no longer hesitated, waved his hand behind him, and issued an order loudly: "Cross the river! Annihilate the Han army!" Wei Qiutai is not a person who abides by his righteousness. He will never leave the surrendered Han army to Wei Yan, so that Wei Yan has his own power, which is inconsistent with his own interests.

The first 10,000-person cavalry quickly moved, slapped the horses and rushed to the ice, and rushed towards the Han army camp. When the first 10,000-person cavalry arrived at the center of the Nengshui, the second 10,000-person cavalry also began to act, following the first 10,000-person cavalry, and then stepped onto the ice.

When the first team of cavalry roared through the ice and climbed the land on the other side, Wei Qiutai completely let go of his guard. With this team of 10,000 cavalry to play the vanguard, he even gained a foothold on the other side. Even without Wei Yan's inner support, it would not be difficult to defeat Ao Lie's troops. So Wei Qiutai made an order to advance quickly: "Transfer to my order, send two infantry teams to cross the river at the same time!"

Fuyu is just a small country and has only 20,000 cavalrymen. After the two 10,000 cavalry teams set off, the remaining three 10,000 teams were all infantry. The weight of one man and one horse was similar to that of two people. Since the water ice surface can withstand the cavalry of ten thousand people, it is no problem to carry two 10,000 infantry teams.

With Wei Qiutai's order, two teams of infantrymen stepped on the ice at the same time and headed towards the opposite shore. When the two teams of infantry were in neat steps and were about to reach the center of the Nengshui, the second team of cavalry who had set out had already crossed the center of the Nengshui, and was one-third of the distance to reach the other shore. At this moment, a sudden change broke out!

A dull cracking sound rang on the ice. At the beginning, the cracking sound was not very obvious, and it was not even louder than the horse's hooves trampling on the ice. But soon, one after another, the cracking sounds sounded, and the cracking sounds were louder and louder, and the sounds were denser and louder, and soon they became a piece, causing the 30,000 Fuyu soldiers standing on the ice to have a look of horror on their faces.

It is difficult to live by the water for a long time. What does this crackling sound mean? The Fuyu soldiers are of course very clear that the ice surface is about to collapse. All the 30,000 Fuyu soldiers stopped their steps at the same time, and a look of despair appeared in their eyes. They didn't know what they should do to save their lives, but they all knew that once they fell under the ice surface, they would definitely have a life-threatening end.
