Chapter 86 Drive the people to attack the city
Chapter 86: Drive the people to attack the city
Heba was tragic and lucky. He had a good father who gave him a peerless horse. Just as Heba pulled out to the trench, the war horse he sat down felt the danger and actually rose into the air and leaped backwards.
Heba walked around the gate of hell. When he was very grateful, a sharp arrow hit him. I don’t know if he was lucky or his archer’s level was not good, but he actually let him escape the vital points and just shot under his crotch, almost shooting his life.
If you don't bring such a playful person, isn't the old man just trying to show off? Heba screamed in his heart and turned his head and ran back desperately, no longer caring about the Xianbei cavalry that came with him.
Fortunately, the Xianbei people in the western region who were watching the formation in the rear were watching the formation. Seeing that something was wrong, they ordered people to blew the horn of retreat. Hearing the "Wuwu" horn, the Xianbei cavalry, who had not yet died, was relieved and fled back to the death. They came quickly and fled faster, of course, these princes Heba didn't care about it!
The face of the Xianbei emperor in the West was as ugly as the face of the silence of the harolo Luo was as ugly as it was. In just a short while, more than half of his five thousand elite cavalry were lost, and all those who escaped were injured.
Looking at the huge ravines in front of him, listening to the sobs of war horses coming from the ravines, the heart-wrenching cry of the Great Xianbei warriors was bleeding in their hearts and their eyes were blasting fire, and they could only order their troops to retreat without any effort.
Compared with the Xianbei people's betrayal, the new army on the city was filled with joy. After all, this was the real maiden battle since their army was formed, and it was a complete victory.
Although Xu Huang, the guard general, tried his best to suppress it, his face was still filled with a bright smile, as if he had picked up gold ingots! This siege battle was less than a moment from the beginning to the end, which made Xu Huang feel too unsatisfied. No wonder the veterans on Pegasus Ranch were all keen on war, and it turned out that killing people would be addicted.
Although our prefect, the marquis of Chaoxiang, and the magistrate of Fenwu, Huangfu Jian, knew that the Xianbei people had attacked the city, he was still lying on the bed as usual to relieve his worries. Long Jiu and Long Shiba hugged each other and had no intention of getting up. The battle last night lasted for too long, so it was time to sleep well, so how could he be willing to get up! What's more, he was relieved to have Xu Huang and Zhang Su guarded Sanshui County, so he slept very peacefully.
Only when the Xianbei people retreated, General Xu Huang and Military Advisor Yan Zhong were waiting in the hall to report to him, Huangfu Jian had to leave Jieyou's soft arms. Of course, Jieyou, Long Jiu and Long Shiba could not get up even if they remembered. They were weak at this time and could not do anything except sleep.
Seeing Xu Huang still unable to suppress his joy when reporting the situation of the war, Huangfu Jian just snorted lightly, and then said: "Burn the bodies of the Xianbei people in a fire, and send horse meat to the army to improve the food, weapons and armor of the soldiers. Don't waste it!"
Huangfu Jian, a person who traveled through later generations, knew that the current warm and humid climate was a season when bacteria were prone to breeding. A large number of corpses were piled up together. If they were not dealt with in time, it would easily cause plague, which would be a tragedy, so he attached great importance to it.
Then he said irresponsibly, "The war has just begun, and you must work hard and never be careless." So, the wartime report meeting ended like this.
This made Yan Zhong and Xu Huang look at each other and mutter to themselves, "We have a lot to say, why is it over so soon!" Oh, the lord is good, but he is too indulgent! This is not good, you must advise me if you have time. Of course, this is what the two of them think, and Huangfu Jian doesn't know.
The next day, the Xianbei people dropped hundreds of corpses in front of the trench and retreated.
On the third and fourth day, the Xianbei people launched a tentative attack on the two camps, Zuogu and Youpingshan. Under the leadership of generals Xu Rong and Ju Yi, they were defeated by the new army and returned in vain.
On the fifth day, as soon as Huangfu Jian got up, Long Yi flashed in. No matter when, Huangfu Jian's bedroom was not on guard against the Eighteen Dragon Cavalry, and only the Eighteen Dragon Cavalry had such rights. If others were not allowed to pass the Eighteen Dragon Cavalry first, they would not be able to pass the Eighteen Dragon Cavalry level.
"Master, the Xianbei army outside the city has changed. General Xu Huang asked the master to go to the top of the city." Although Long Yi had a cold face on weekdays, he respected Huangfu Jian, the young master, from the bottom of his heart, and his attitude was extremely humble.
"Oh! What happened?" Huangfu Jian was slightly surprised. What happened made Xu Huang helpless.
This time, Huangfu Jian was planning to let go completely. He did not show up until the decisive battle. He let Yan Zhong, Xu Huang, Zhang Zu, Xu Rong, Ju Yi and others take charge of everything. He only controls the overall situation. This is not Huangfu Jian is lazy, but the abilities of these generals are there. If he gets involved, it will make them shrink and unable to display it. It is better to let them give it a try.
Huangfu Jian hopes to hone them through this bloody battle so that they can become truly generals who can stand on their own! These people are all wise ministers and generals who will plot against the world in the future!
"I don't know!" The eighteen Dragon Knights' duty is to protect Huangfu Jian's safety, just like the shadow of Huangfu Jian. But those who do their job also have their own rules, that is, they cannot be asked about anything other than the orders of their masters.
"Tell them, I will arrive later!" Huangfu Jian said, while holding a helmet and armor under Jieyou's service.
When Huangfu Jian arrived at the top of the city with the Eighteen Dragon Cavalry, he seemed to know that he was going to fight. The candidates of the eight generals, "White-faced Crazy Tiger", "Iron Tower" Cheng Yin, "Mr. Bufan" Yang Qiu, "Gate God" Li Kan, "Lei Zi" Zhang Heng, "Bow God" Liang Xing, "Hei Zi" Cheng Yi, "Thousand-Handed Boy" Ma Wan, the chief of the guards, Yan Xing, Pang De, and Huangfu Li were already waiting at the top of the city without accepting the land. Even the Xianbei man Pu Tou, who had just surrendered, came, and for a moment, there were starry-gathering stars on the top of the city.
"What's going on?" Huangfu Jian didn't understand the truth and asked Xu Huang and Zhang Rue who were anxiously waiting.
"Lord, the Xianbei people are so despicable. They are afraid of death, but they drive us Han people to fill the trenches." Xu Huang and Zhang Su were both excited and angry. They glared at Putou viciously when they spoke.
Putou probably knew that the public was unpleasant. His face, which was already slightly black, had turned red and stayed aside without saying a word. He thought that the Xianbei people were very normal, and he had done a lot of things before. To them, these Han people were slaves, and weren’t slaves just used as cannon fodder!
Huangfu Jian looked down at the city and was filled with righteous indignation. In his previous life, war was a matter between soldiers and had nothing to do with innocent people. He hated the practice of not treating the lower-level people even more.
Under the city, five thousand Xianbei cavalry escorted a large group of ragged Han people, each carrying a big bag on its back. Under the coercion of the Xianbei people, these Han people were filling the trenches in front of the city gate. As long as they were moving a little slower, they would be hit by the Xianbei people's whip and knife. Some of the Han people who had already resisted were poisoned by their hands and fell into a pool of blood.
Huangfu Jian roughly estimated that there were at least 20,000 Han people here, and most of them were young and powerful young people and women. Five miles away from them, the black Xianbei cavalry was ready to attack the city in a strict manner! What they wanted to do, Huangfu Jian could think of it even with his toes!
They must be stopped, otherwise this deep ditch will be filled soon. At that time, the Xianbei people can not only face the city, but more seriously, the Xianbei people can also use these Han people as their scapegoats and take the lead in the battle.
"hateful!"
Huangfu Jian cursed hatefully, but he thought about it and could not think of a solution to both sides. However, he could not do it even if he ordered the massacre of these poor Han people. Although he was ruthless and decisive in killing, he had always had strong sympathy for ordinary people.
"Mr. Yan, can there be a way to rescue these Han people?" Huangfu Jian had no solution for a while, so he had to ask Yan Zhong for advice from his think tank.
"My lord wants to save these Han people?" Yan Zhong thought he had heard it wrong, so he looked at Huangfu Jian and asked in confusion.
"They are all my great men. If I want me to kill them, I really can't do anything! If I don't kill them, I have to try to rescue them, otherwise the Xianbei people will use them, and we will be passive everywhere at that time!"
Huangfu Jian glared at the city, showing a strong murderous intent on his body, and was like a wild beast who chose someone to be eaten.
The murderous aura that appeared on Huangfu Jian's body made Yan Zhong shiver and unconsciously moved away. Putou, not far from Huangfu Jian, shrank back in horror. He was really afraid that the Son of God would chop himself into half in anger!
"The lord is kind-hearted and blessed by the Han people! But to save these Han people, you have to open the city gate and let them enter the city. The Xianbei cavalry will definitely take advantage of the situation and attack. The risk is too great. Please think twice."
Yan Zhong also wanted to save these unarmed Han people, but it was so easy to be indifferent. At this time, no one could make a decision except Huangfu Jian himself, so Yan Zhong only explained the pros and cons and decided by Huangfu Jian himself.
Just as the two of them were talking, the trench in front of the city gate had been completely filled and was extending to both sides.
