Wang Ben jumped off the horse's back and shouted happily: "If this stirrup is popularized in the entire army, then the Huns will no longer be terrible. Our cavalry can completely defeat their cavalry." Zhou Bo said: "But if the Huns also learned to use stirrups." Wang Zhu said: "So we must fight quickly and decide quickly. Notify the entire army to build 100,000 stirrups immediately. When we arrive in Jinyang, all soldiers must learn to ride war horses with stirrups. In addition, they send 100 stirrups to Shangjun and hand them over to Wang Ao, so that he can order people to build them the same, and there must be no mistakes."

When Wang Ben's army arrived in Jinyang, Zhang Han was almost unable to support it. Tongtar City was about to be captured by Han Xin's troops. The blood-stained city wall was like a woman in vague clothes exposed to the power of the Huns' iron hooves, and could only wait for the Huns to ravage. At this time, Cao Shen suddenly thought of a plan.

"Your Majesty, I have a plan to defeat the Huns."

Wang Zhu said: "Let me go." Cao Shen said: "When Your Majesty raised his army, did you say that you would unite with the Great Yuezhi? Now is the time. The Huns sent troops from two groups and pulled out all 300,000 crossbow-controlling soldiers. The Long City of Wangting will inevitably be empty. Your Majesty can make the Great Yuezhi king take the opportunity to attack the King of Huns and occupy the vast grassland outside the border. The Huns will inevitably panic." Wang Ben said: "The Huns always bring their families and property by their side when fighting. The Great Yuezhi attacks at this time." Cao Shen said: "Although they can't get anything, they can set up defenses on all roads on the grassland to cut off the Xiongnu's way back. The Great Yuezhi king is also a greedy guy, and he will definitely do it."

Wang Zhu said: "Die horses are used as living horses. Cao Shen, you have been on a mission to Dayuezhi. This time I will order you to go there. Be sure to convince Ezerbaija to send troops to the Huns." Cao Shen said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will definitely fulfill my mission." Wang Zhu said: "Things are too urgent. You can set off now and rush them up. Be sure to arrive within ten days. I will try to resolve the crisis in Jinyang first."

After Cao Shen left, Wang Zhu and others continued to discuss military information. Yuan Sheng and Dong Yi explained the Xiongnu's defense situation in detail on the map.

"Daijun lost, and the Xiongnu vanguard army was only more than 200 miles away from Jinyang, with three cities, Tongtar, Lishi and Loufan. Lishi have been lost. The Xiongnu sent troops to garrison, completely isolated the Zhang Han army in Tongtar City from two directions. The people besieged Zhang Han were the coalition forces of Han Xin and the Xiongnu, with a total force of 300,000, and the two armies were halfway. General Dong Yi had sent general Yong Chi to guard Loufan as the last buffer zone for our army and the Xiongnu. Once Zhang Han's Tongtar was lost, the Xiongnu could reach Loufan within half a day. The few soldiers in Yong Chi's hand were probably only able to last for half a day."

Wang Zhu said: "You can't wait for the Huns to destroy Zhang Han. The old general Zhang Han is a pillar of the country and has made great contributions to the country. In any case, we must rescue the old general from the tiger's mouth. The stirrups in the army are ready and the cavalry's combat effectiveness is rapidly advancing. I am ready to take back Li Shi in one fell swoop with thunder and go to help Zhang Han, and work with him inside and outside to defeat the Hun army outside the Tongtar City."

Wang Ben said: "The old minister agreed with Your Majesty's plan to retake Lishi City first. The Huns would never have thought that our army would fight hard with them outside the city, and would suffer losses if they were not as good as they were defending. The old minister had a plan to seize Lishi without any effort." Zhou Bo said: "The old general quickly." Wang Ben said: "The Huns are only good at fighting in the field but not in defending the city. The old minister's foolish opinion is that they have never fought in the battle to defend the city and do not understand the various deceits here at all. The old minister thought that we could adopt the 'fueling tactic' to increase troops in succession without knowing the knowledge of the gods, and then suddenly the troops surrounded the Shicheng and attacked fiercely. While the Huns were dealing with the fierce attack on the city, they dug tunnels into the city."

Zhou Bo said: "There is no moat left in the stone city, and the Huns do not know how to dig trenches to defend the enemy. Digging tunnels to enter the city is the best way. I hope they really don't know how to defend the city." Wang Ben said: "I have been in the hands of the Huns for many years, and I know their ability. The guardian is definitely not good at defending the city. The old minister will definitely win this plan."

Wang Zhu said: "Since that's the case, Xiahou Ying, Ren Ao, E Qianqiu, Lu Jia, and Zhou Bo ordered you five to serve 20,000 soldiers each to set off at night and enter Loufan. The soldiers surrounded Shicheng tomorrow morning and ordered Yongchi to take his fortification soldiers to dig tunnels and prepare to enter the city. The general and I are in charge of Jinyang, waiting for the news of your victory. If you break through Lishi, don't act rashly. The Huns will definitely turn back and fight back. I will personally lead the troops to aid."

A spy came to report to him: "General, General Fan Kuai's men have arrived in Hanoi and sent someone to ask whether to continue to go west or north to Jinyang." Wang Ben looked at Wang Zhu. Wang Zhu hesitated and said: "The main battlefield of the Huns is not in Shangjun but in Sanjin. He ordered Fan Kuai's King's Tomb Li Zuoche to go north to Jinyang quickly and wait for the dispatch." Wang Ben repeated it outside the door. Zhou Bo and the other five people agreed in unison, withdrew from the tent, and ordered troops to fight.

At midnight, a hundred thousand troops had already arrived at the city of Loufan. A spy had already conveyed Wang Zhu's secret order. Yongchi Kaicheng put the army in. Zhou Bo immediately took over the city defense and issued an order to the generals. "Your Majesty has an order to launch a fierce attack tomorrow to retake Lishi City. The general is now in advance to set up a defense before the war. Xiahou Ying, Ren Ao, and Lu Jia are divided into three gates in the east, south and west to siege the city, each with 20,000 troops and attack. E Qianqiu, Yongchi led 50,000 troops to dig tunnels outside Lishi City. Before dusk, the tunnels must be dug and attacked into the city. We should work together inside and outside to kill the Huns."

All the generals were full of blood and promised to go down and prepare. The army made meals at the third anniversary and set off at the fourth anniversary. When it was dawn, they had already arrived at the city of Lishi. With a cannon and a three-way drum sound, the flags suddenly flew on the horizon that stretched ten miles across the ten miles, and the horse's hooves rushed. The Qin army quickly surrounded the city on three sides like dark clouds. Before the Huns had time to leave the city to fight, the Qin army had already launched a crazy siege battle. Outside the city gate and under the city wall, teams of Qin soldiers were lined up in large rows, galloping like cloud ladders, and the loess on the ground rose more than one meter high. Countless stone-acting machines were arranged ten feet away from the city wall, aiming at the huge rocks that had been fired hundreds of kilograms at the city wall. The sound of rumbling sounds was endless, and the city wall was hit by the stone rain and was full of holes.

Although the Huns did not know how to defend the city, the arrows were fired accurately. As the arrows were rushing on the top of the city, the Qin army's offensive was suppressed again and again. Fortunately, the highlight of the Qin army was not here. After the second round of attacks was defeated, Zhou Bo decisively ordered the attacking troops to retreat twenty feet. The sound of war drums and trumpets kept playing outside the city. In order to cover Yongchi's fortifications digging trenches. After resting for half an hour, the Qin army launched an offensive again. Sixty or seventy thousand troops successfully arrived at the city under the cover of the stone-acting machine, and ladders were laid on the top of the city. The Huns

Although he didn't know how to defend the city, he could still throw stones at the city. The Qin army's ladders were smashed, and the soldiers who barely attacked the city were also killed by the brave Huns. The attack lasted for about an hour and made little progress. Zhou Bo still ordered the withdrawal. At this time, the Huns suffered a lot of losses, and they were a little confused. They had never encountered such a fierce team after fighting for so many years. After coming up, they started to fight desperately without even saying hello. The Hun generals who guarded the city sent people out of the northern gate to Tongtar City to ask for reinforcements from the Xiongnu Marshal Tuyuhun.

Zhou Bo fought and rested, fought and fought, from the early morning until it was almost dusk, the Qin soldiers were tired, and the Huns were extremely tired. The city was covered with dead bodies of Hun soldiers, and countless Qin soldiers were lying under the city, with blood everywhere, and blood flowing into a river.

With the sound of gold, the Qin soldiers retreated like a tide again, and the Huns could breathe a sigh of relief. The Huns on the city were in words that no one understood, constantly cursing and cursing these endless Qin people. Suddenly, there were continuous crackling sounds under the inner city tower. The Huns looked at each other and all rushed to lie on the top of the city to watch. Then there were a few rumbling sounds. The ground under the city tower suddenly collapsed, revealing three or five dark pits. Teams of Qin soldiers burst out from the pit, bursting out howls. Those howls gathered into sound waves and followed by figures, rushed towards the city gate, and the city tower. Guarding the city gate

The Xiongnu soldiers at the mouth were completely unprepared and were killed by the ferocious Qin soldiers as fierce as wild animals within a meal. The city gate suddenly opened from the inside. The Qin soldiers outside the city gate made a wave of shouts of killing, and the cavalry and infantry rushed in. The Xiongnu soldiers on the top of the city gave up their positions and wanted to rush down, but were already blocked by the Qin soldiers crawling out of the tunnel. The two sides started a bloody battle on the city wall. The Xiongnu people were not afraid of death, and the Qin people were also not afraid of death. Without the protection of the iron hoofs of the cavalry, the Xiongnu people could no longer act violently. The increasing number of Qin soldiers quickly gained an absolute advantage, and the Xiongnu people died one by one.

The three gates in the southeast and west were almost at the same time. Some of the Xiongnu soldiers opened the north gate and fled, while the rest were surrounded by the Qin army and killed in a forest in the city. There were more than 20,000 people. This number may not be a big deal for the army in the Central Plains, but for the few people, the death of the 20,000 crossbow-controlling warriors should have been a heavy blow. In order to cope with the bloody revenge of the Huns, Zhou Bo personally moved his troops to Lishi, closed the city gate tightly, and waited for his work. He ordered the bodies of the 20,000 Hun soldiers to be thrown down from the north gate and set fire to intimidate the Huns.

When Wang Zhu heard that Li Shi was recovered in front of him, he also moved his troops to Loufan and continued to monitor the movements of the Huns. The next day, the three Huns' army indeed came again. The total force of the besieged city exceeded 60,000, of which 40,000 were Han Xin's Yan infantry. Zhou Bo had prepared to guard the city as early as last night. Four hundred stone generators were arranged at the four gates, with high tung oil, rolling wood and rolling stones piled up like mountains, and a trench filled with sharp bamboo was dug.

Han Xin's general Hou Chang cooperated with the Huns general Hua Zimo to attack the city. The 20,000 Huns were all light cavalry and were not suitable for siege. Han Xin's 40,000 soldiers and horses first went up to act as cannon fodder. With Hou Chang's order, the army advanced forward and came to the edge of the trench. On the top of Lishi City, there were horns and black flags waving. Zhou Bo and other generals all climbed to the top of the city to fight, with red tassels initiating, majestic.

"Prepare the stone generator and put it on."

The Yan army, which had already advanced to the edge of the trench, set up a cloud ladder to cross the trench, and was smashed by the ruthless stone rain thrown from the city. They retreated one after another. The Huns could care about the life and death of the Yan army. Hua Zimo ordered 20,000 Xiong soldiers to line up behind the Yan army. As a supervisor, when they met the Yan army who dared to retreat, they chopped them into meat sauce with a quick knife. The Yan army retreated halfway and had to be forced to rush to the opposite side of the trench. The huge rocks in the sky covered the sky, and two feet under their feet

Hanging in the air, if you fall, you will definitely be a sharp bamboo piercing your chest. You can imagine the death and injury of the Yan army. After a full hour of leaping into the trench, the bodies of the Yan army soldiers had filled the trench. Hou Chang was so excited to look behind him, tears filled his eyes, and choked and said to Hua Zimo: "General, you can't do this. Brothers will die when they arrive at the city." Hua Zimo's answer was very simple and powerful - a whip. The whip drew a blood groove on Hou Chang's face, and Hou Chang was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

The Yan army finally crossed the trench with huge casualties, with less than 30,000 people left. The Yan army, who had crossed the trench, knew that they were not very happy, didn't care much, so they threw off the shield in their hands, ran and charged, while shooting arrows at the top of the city. The stone-acting machine immediately responded, temporarily withdrew from the battlefield, and replaced countless archers. The arrows formed a curtain of death from top to bottom. The two armies quickly decided the outcome, and the siege side naturally suffered heavy losses. Huazimo rode a tall horse, curled his lips and watched behind, and was indifferent to the death and injury of the Yan army. Originally, in this case, they had to call gold to withdraw the troops, but the Huns did not regard the Yan army as human beings, and still beat drums and commanded the attack. The number of Yan army was consumed sharply. After half an hour, not only did not approach the city, but also lost four or five thousand people.

Hou Chang knelt in pain in front of Huazimo's horse's head begging for mercy, and was almost whipped to death by Huazimo's horse whip.

In the Yan army's attack of life and death, the Qin army could not completely seal the position. The Yan army's ladder began to be placed on the city tower. Hua Zimo laughed behind her. Another wave of rolling wood and stones poured down from the city. Thousands of Yan army climbing the cloud ladder were smashed into meat sauce, and many Yan army retreated. Hua Zimo commanded the Huns to shoot arrows behind her, and all the retreating Yan army were shot into honeycombs. Hou Chang was trembling with excitement, but he no longer dared to speak. Even Zhou Bo on the city was reluctant to attack the Yan army. The Huns were too bad.

The Yan army had no way back and could only move forward desperately, but the Qin army was too prepared. The arrows and rolling stones on the top of the city were endless and they could not be taken away. The Yan army rushed up once, leaving a piece of corpse, and retreated. After rushing up once and losing thousands of people, they retreated. They were fighting there, which was simply suicide. Huazimo screamed in anger behind, blaming Hou Chang for being a waste. Hou Chang really wanted to chop him into meat sauce.

At this moment, smoke and dust suddenly stormed behind the Huns, and the cavalry of Qin from all directions came from all directions. Judging from the momentum, there were 70,000 to 80,000 people. Huazimo was not afraid and commanded 20,000 Xiongnu cavalry to turn to meet the enemy, showing off to Hou Chang: "You Central Plains people are all wastes, now see how our Huns warriors fight." The 20,000 Xiongnu soldiers rushed up like a whistle under Huazimo's whistle.
