The scouts returned to Liu He. The Murong Ji army of Murong's army attacked the south gate of Yuyang City. The Qifuzhen army of Qifu's army had already arrived at the east gate of Yuyang City and was launching an attack. Duan's army Duan Gui led a five thousand army to Guangping and left the city and was coming to Yuyang along the Bao River.

The six thousand defenders in the city were in the governor Liu Yu, the prefect of Yuyang, and others defended the city to death, and both sides suffered heavy losses.

The enemy's scouts were densely spread on the Gu River, and it was almost impossible to cross the river quietly along the Bao River. Liu He used Yan Rou's 700 cavalry as the front song during the army's marching, Xianyufu, Cheng Pu's 600 cavalry as the front song, and Yongnu, and 300 cavalry of Lu County as the back song; Zhang Fei was the rear army, Zhang Qiao and Tian Xun led 1,000 infantry to follow the cavalry, and led two thousand cavalry to escort the formation.

Han Meng arrived with a horse.

"The lord has a place twenty miles away for troops to cross the river. The terrain is relatively hidden and the water flow is slow, but the river surface is slightly narrower. But the enemy's scouts looked at it very tightly and could not cross the river secretly."

"There are too few ships at present, and it will take at least one day for the army to be crowded." Liu He said cautiously.

"It will definitely be exposed after crossing the river for such a long time. It is probably difficult to achieve a surprise attack." Xian Yufu said to Liu He.

"We can first send two or three hundred soldiers to attack the enemy scouts on the river bank and clear their stakes." Yan Rou said with an idea.

Liu He didn't say anything. He took out the map from his arms and looked at it again and then pointed to a place on the map to ask Han Meng beside him, "Is there a ferry here in Jianwei?"

"Yes! This place is fifty miles away from Yuyang City, and the Hu people pay great attention to it."

"Please come to Yide! Order the troops to enter the mountains and forests to rest, and Chief Yun prepares the ships to cross the river tomorrow. The scout team immediately dispersed and cleared the enemies within twenty miles." Liu He immediately issued orders.

Zhang Fei rode his horse to come.

"Yide, you immediately lead the troops to this ferry overnight." Liu He pointed to the map and said, "When you get there, build a bigger momentum, build more tents, and actively make an attitude of preparing to cross the river to attract the attention of the enemy scouts. As long as the enemy scouts gather in your place, the large army will start crossing the river from here."

Zhang Fei nodded repeatedly.

Xian Yufu said in admiration: "Young Master's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain is indeed very clever! The nearby enemies will be lured from this area by Zhang Xianfeng's troops, which is much easier than sending troops to search and kill them."

"This rescue of Yuyang City is mainly based on cavalry attacks, and infantry has no place to use their skills for the time being. However, if infantry participates in crossing the river for a longer time, it will seriously affect the progress and concealment of the troops. So I want them to lure the enemy and paralyze the enemy to divert their attention to cover the large army to cross the river secretly. What do you think?" Liu He asked Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Xian Yufu, and Yan Rou, who were standing around.

Everyone agreed in convincingly, no one raised any objections.

"If nothing unexpected happens, we will start the operation early the morning after tomorrow. If everything goes well in Yide, the enemy's scouts will not be seen near Gu River in the afternoon after the day. At that time, you will immediately cross the river and arrive at Yuyang City overnight to meet us."

Liu He looked at Zhang Fei and said with a smile: "Yide sets off now! It will take more than three hours for the troops to march through the 60-70-mile road. You must remember that the momentum must be strong, and the enemy must mistakenly think that you are the main reinforcements."

"Don't worry, lord! I've left the job." Zhang Fei bowed and flew away on his horse.

At this moment in Yuyang, Murong Ji frowned at the Yuyang City Tower, which was shockingly killing.

The troops have been attacking intermittently for seven days since the siege of the city, and the losses have reached more than 2,000 people. However, Qifuxu's troops have been delaying until yesterday when they arrived at Yuyang City.

"How about Qifuxu attacking at the East Gate?" Murong Ji asked the little coach Murong Qi beside him.

"Return to the leader, fierce! Very fierce! Leader Qifu transferred all his troops to the top today, as if he could not defeat Yuyang City today."

"As planned, his troops should have been to Yuyang to meet four days ago. We attacked the east gate and the south gate of Yuyang City at the same time. But his slow action delayed the fighter plane, which caused us to lose many people in vain. I turned around and took Yuyang City to see if I didn't cause trouble for him." Murong Ji said in anger.

"The leader guards the East Gate by Tian Kai, the commander of Yuyang County. This man is very powerful. He has fought with the Wuhuan people in the past and has won and lost each other. When the leader Qifu meets him, it will definitely be a fierce battle. If the leader does not need to cause trouble for him, Tian Kai is enough for him." Murong Qi said gloatingly.

"If the Han people could not beat us on the plains, we would huddle in the city and defend ourselves. A group of cowards were useless. If I had known that it would be difficult to hit Yuyang City, I would not have come. I begged the leader to ask for such a good job, which was really unlucky." Murong Ji thought of Murong Fu's arrogant face, and he was not very angry.

What's the arrogant and domineering spirit? When I was in a down-and-out situation, I was beaten around like a dog. If I hadn't known that this invasion of the Great Man would have been so lucky, who would have begged you? When I captured the wealthy women in Yuyang City, I'd beg you.

Murong Ji and Murong Qin had great opinions about Murong Fu - they were both in the same tribe and both were the same ancestor, but these two people were quite ambitious about seizing the power of the Murong tribe and needed to strive for military merits to gain prestige and suppress Murong Fu.

Unexpectedly, things were far beyond their expectations. The grassland knights who lost the war horses also lost the advantage of winning the battle. Although they also prepared a large amount of siege equipment, the nations on the horses were indeed not very good at siege cities. As a result, they could not conquer for a long time, and the morale of the soldiers was greatly damaged and the stalemate was a stalemate.

Murong Ji felt a little uneasy.

"Chief..." Suddenly, a quick voice interrupted Murong Ji's random thoughts, and he suddenly woke up and looked back.

"The Han army has led its troops to Gu River and is 65 miles away from Yuyang City."

Murong Ji's face changed drastically!

Qifuxu was shocked when he received this news.

"What did Chief Murong say?"

"He believed that the enemy's reinforcements were extremely threatening, so he was preparing to send Wumeng's troops from the Black Eagle Tribe to block the attack and delay their time to cross the river."

"Your leader is still continuing to attack the city?" Qifuxu asked.

"Yes. Today, we have captured the west side of the city wall many times, and it has been a matter of breaking the city. The leader hopes that the attack from the East City Gate will be more fierce and will tightly restrain Tian Kai to cover the main force to open the gap at the South City Gate and successfully break the Yuyang City."

Qi Fuxiu pondered and lowered his head and circled around the war horse.

"Tell you that the leader of the family should not disperse the troops on the main battlefield when the city is about to be broken, but should concentrate all his forces to launch a fierce attack on him, striving to achieve it overnight. Let me send people to Guhe to block it! The river itself is a good defensive position. As long as you guard the other side, you don't need too many people to achieve the goal of delaying the enemy's crossing the river." Qifu had thought for a long time and stopped and said slowly to Murong Qi.

Murong Qi was overjoyed and bowed to Qi Fuxu and flew away on his horse.

At noon, Qi Fuyu and a thousand soldiers rushed to the Gu River. Qi Fuyu asked them to bring enough arrows. Once the Han reinforcements crossed the river, they would use long arrows to block the river surface. Try not to engage in head-on conflicts with the enemy as much as possible to avoid unnecessary losses.

At this time, Liu Yu stood on the tower of Yuyang City in a long coat. In the afternoon, the enemy's offensive became more and more fierce, and the Han army gradually could not resist it. He was anxious and anxious to look forward to his son's reinforcements. It has been five or six days since he brought the reinforcements to Yuyang City, and he has not seen other reinforcements yet.

Liu Yu was an honest official, fair and kind, and highly praised the people for his political achievements, but his kind and humble character caused a bad hidden danger. The prefects of several major county governments, the princess of the country, did not sell Liu Yu's account very much. When they asked for money, they all came to complain, but when they asked them to work hard, they all hid faster than rabbits.

Liu Yu looked at the fewer and fewer Han soldiers on the city tower and felt heavy in his heart.

From the morning, the West City Wall became the focus of the enemy's attack. The Xianbei soldiers attacked tenaciously and stubbornly despite the heavy casualties. They organized assault 100-man teams to take tirelessly and take turns to attack again and again, using all kinds of means to climb up the city wall and fight with the Han soldiers to fight to the death. The Xianbei people used several lives to exchange for the life of a soldier on the defensive side, and gave the Han army a heavy blow. The defensive surface of the West City Wall once appeared in danger. The Han army soldiers were killed by the Xianbei people at their own defensive points, and some defensive areas were occupied by the Xianbei people several times.

The soldiers on both sides opened their blood-red eyes and cut, axe, gun, and spear, and even bite their mouths and pinched hands. Anyway, they could use the means of death to the other party.

The Han army's reserve forces blocked the gun hole and pulled nails again and again, and launched a cruel hand-to-hand combat with the enemy. The battle situation on the city wall was unprecedentedly fierce.

In the afternoon, the Xianbei people suddenly stopped attacking. With the low and loud sound of the horns, the soldiers began to retreat from the city to safety, but instead of retreating to the barracks to rest, they gathered together again, as if preparing for the next more fierce attack.

The city walls were densely filled with corpses, and the strong smell of blood was floating in the air, filling the sky above the entire city.

Liu Yu walked slowly on the city wall with a shrunken and thin face without a trace of blood, looking old and sad. He looked at the remains of soldiers lying on the city wall in various postures, and looked at the wounded soldiers leaning against the city wall moaning loudly. His heart was extremely painful and he could not express his sadness and pain in words. The flame of hatred in his heart was burning violently.

He always insisted on adopting a policy of gentleness towards the Hu people, and he hoped to live in peace with the Hu people outside the Great Wall. He moved and appeased countless Hu nobles and ordinary people with his sincere heart. He resisted the opposition and opened many markets in Shanggu County, allowing the Huns, Xianbeis, Wuhuans, Fuyus and other Hu people from all ethnic groups to trade with the Han people here, and to communicate with each other with barter or not to improve the living standards of Hu people and Han people.

He moved a large number of Wuhuan people to Daijun, Shanggu, Yuyang, Youbeiping, Liaoxi and Liaodong to help them build houses, teach them to cultivate land and raise silkworms, and try every means to gradually give up their nomadic life and get rid of poverty from generation to generation. He tried his best to establish good relations with the leaders of various tribes, and while the Youzhou treasury was extremely scarce, he still provided food and money to the Hu tribes who were in urgent need of help.

He didn't understand that he had done so many good things, including the generous release of Wuyan and several tribes captured in Lulongsai. Why were these Hu people not only unhappy but became more and more powerful to invade and plunder?

Are these Hu people really the nature of jackals and a wolf that will never be filled with?

Liu Yu remembered the chief of the Liaodong vassal state, Baima Gongsun Zan, and his son Liu He. They had objected to their practice of appeaseing the Hu people.

They thought that the Hu people should be killed and robbed, until they were killed with courage and were as gentle as dogs in the courtyard; they robbed them to have nothing but their stomachs and breathe, and only food was left in their minds. In this way, they would not have greedy ambitions. Without ambition, they would not invade the Han territory as they are now, and they would wantonly rob and kill and plunder the Han people.

Are they right? Liu Yu was confused and painful. Why did the two ethnic groups have to fight each other and conquer each other and enslave each other? Can't they live together friendly? Why did the Xianbei people have to attack the Han Dynasty and try to occupy the territory of the Han Dynasty? Since Tan Shihuai unified the Xianbei people, wars have not stopped between the two countries, but who has gained the benefits? Apart from the pile of bones and the earnest blood, what else can the tears of countless orphans and widows?

But the bloody battlefield in front of him stimulated the middle-aged governor almost lost his sanity.
