The spring of the sixth year of the Zhenguan era.

Ying Shimin arrived in Shang County with Han Xin.

This time, he set his sights on the Xiongnu in the north.

With the prosperous and stable Great Qin as his backing, Ying Shimin had the upper hand against the Xiongnu in the north.

The battle was almost completely one-sided.

A young Han Xin, just like the military god Li Jing who wiped out the Tuyuhun with a wave of his hand, demonstrated his prowess.

Together with Meng Tian, Liu Bang, and the skilled guerrilla warfare expert Peng Yue, they drove the Xiongnu all the way to Lake Baikal.

In this battle, Ying Shimin penetrated deep into Xiongnu territory. Outside the Xiongnu royal court, Ying Shimin had the aged Liu Bang pour imperial wine into a spring and share it with the soldiers.

He named this place Wine Spring and, after drinking too much that night, he called for a young man named Huo, with the surname "Huo," from Liu Bang's army, and granted him the name "Qu Bing."

No one knew why this strategic emperor found it amusing to laugh heartily with this young man named "Huo Qubing."

People only remembered the two extraordinary events of drinking horse wine at Wine Spring and granting the wolf the rank of a vassal.

Eventually, the Xiongnu's Modu Chanyu could not escape his fate of dancing.

Ying Shimin had Liu Bang trap him and captured him behind Baideng Mountain.

Then, he watched as his Xiongnu tribes were gradually driven out and annihilated by the army.

At the grand celebration bonfire party held after the complete victory of the army, Liu Bang, Meng Tian, and that young man named Huo Qubing forced Ying Shimin to dance around the bonfire.

In his drunken haze, Ying Shimin looked at the laughing Liu Bang and whispered softly, "I guess I haven't disgraced you, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty."
