The opening of the Three Kingdoms inherits the bravery of the overlord of Chu

Chapter 57 The Battle of Meiji
Meiji City.

"Shan Yu, something is wrong, the Han people are already approaching the city."

Yu Fuluo was awakened in an instant, got up hurriedly and went out, only to see that the waning moon had not yet set in the sky, the new sun had not yet risen, the surroundings were still hazy, and the sky had not yet dawned.

The commander looked at Yu Fuluo in a panic.

"How many people are there?"

Yu Fuluo forced himself to calm down and said, damn it, the reinforcements have not yet arrived, the enemy has already besieged the city, and Yu Fuluo has no thoughts about where to go.

Outside the East City Gate, hundreds of white felt bags broke through the ground overnight, forming one after another, with figures everywhere, and horses screaming everywhere.

"Shan Yu!"

The gatekeeper and Chief Wanfu Lu An hurriedly stepped forward to welcome Yu Fuluo, then pointed to the Han army outside the city, and said in a deep voice: "These Han thieves came here at night an hour ago, and they didn't attack the city, they just stood outside Camp, people can't figure it out."

Yu Fuluo poked his head out and looked out. The soldiers were heavily armored, his face darkened, and he sighed: "The enemy army is in full swing, so don't go out of the city to fight."

"Lu An, guard the city gate. Without my military order, no one is allowed to open the gate to meet the enemy."

Lu An paused for a moment, then replied: "Of order!"

Outside the city, inside Zhao Feng's Chinese army camp.

Dian Wei and other generals gathered together, all of them were full of enthusiasm, clamoring for Zhao Feng to order to attack the city and win Meiji City as soon as possible.

"You'an, are the thunderbolt chariots set up?"

Zhao Feng asked Xin Qiji.

Xin Qiji smiled and said: "My lord, the thunderbolt chariot has been fully installed, and it can be rolled out at any time to launch an attack."

"My lord, the sky is dark and it's a good time to throw rocks. You can give orders. The brothers of Qianniuwei have already prepared."

Pei Yuanshao replied.

Zhao Feng smiled lightly and shook his head, and said: "Don't rush for a while, the city will be attacked at dawn, in this battle, if we don't fight, we will be defeated. Attacking the heart is the top priority, and defeating the city is the bottom."

Yue Fei on the side couldn't help but his eyes brightened, and he took a deep look at Zhao Feng. As the commander in chief, he understood Zhao Feng's current situation better. Now the lord is surrounded by capable people, such as Wu Youdianwei, Di Lei, Yuchijin, Zhou Cang, Pei Yuanshao, Wen You Lu Xiufu, and Xin Qiji are more than enough to manage a county.

However, what the lord lacks the most right now is the population. Whether it is to fight against the barbarians of the foreign race, or to command the Central Plains in the future, the population of Dingxiang County is not enough at all. Manpower and material resources are very scarce. The only way is to expand the territory.

Although Shuofang is a good place, its population is sparse. Even though it was proposed to move the population of Luo County to Meiji City and then develop westward, it will take three to five years to develop Shuofang. Therefore, the only way is to employ people , to recover the Huns.

Dian Wei snorted and said, "My lord, Meiji City is right in front of us. If we don't fight now, let alone when, I, Dian Wei, have already prepared to rush into the city and capture the Xiongnu Shanyu alive."

Zhao Feng glared at Dian Wei, and couldn't help laughing inwardly, this simple-minded man is a typical militant.

"Pengju, you can send people to set up an ambush south of Meiji City, so as not to disturb the Huns reinforcements."

Yue Fei had already thought about it, but before he opened his mouth, he immediately replied: "My lord, since General Dian Wei can't stay idle, let him and Di Lei go to set up an ambush."

"Ok!"

Zhao Feng agreed and ordered: "Dian Wei and Di Lei listen to the order. You two lead 2000 troops to stop the reinforcements of the Huns. If you let one of them pass through, you will have no merit. After the war is over, you will be punished. .”

"This……"

Dian Wei was dumbfounded for a moment, and said bitterly: "Master, this is not easy to handle, or..."

Zhao Feng said with a serious face: "A military order is like a mountain, how can you go back on your word, and go as soon as you are ordered!"

"As ordered!"

Dian Wei didn't hesitate anymore, he roared loudly, and then, together with Di Lei, led the troops to the south of Meiji City.

After sending Dian Wei away, Zhao Feng asked everyone to disperse, and launched an attack at dawn.

……

Meiji City.

Thousands of Xiongnu soldiers have been guarding the city, ready to deal with the attack of the Han people at any time. Everyone has their hearts in their throats, but the Han people just don't take action, which is really confusing.

When Hongxia rose, the Han camp finally started to move.

Lu An immediately became highly nervous, staring at the Han army outside the city without turning his eyes, and suddenly exclaimed: "What is that?"

Lu An pointed at the Perak chariot pushed out from the Han camp, and became uneasy.

Catapult vehicles are very common in the Central Plains, but they are very rare in the frontiers. Moreover, the thunderbolt vehicle improved by Zhao Feng is bigger than ordinary catapult vehicles, so Lu An was puzzled for a while.

"My lord, that thing looks like a catapult!"

A commander replied.

"The catapult?"

Lu An's heart was cold. Isn't the power of the huge catapult now unlimited.

"No, hurry up, open the city gate and send people out to destroy this damn thing. Once they get close, Meiji City will be over."

Seeing the restless Lu An, the commander hurriedly shouted: "My lord, but Shan Yu ordered that no one should be allowed to open the city, or send someone to report now."

"No, it's too late!"

Lu An shouted in panic, "Now, open the city gate and go out to destroy it, otherwise everyone in the city will die!"

After finishing speaking, Lu An hurriedly ran down the tower, shouting loudly: "Quickly prepare the kerosene, go out of the city to kill the enemy, and destroy the catapult."

"promise!"

Several centurions quickly took orders and left.

After a while, hundreds of kerosene tanks were ready and hung on the horses, and Lu Ann immediately ordered to open the city gate.

Thousands of Xiongnu cavalry rushed out of the city and headed for the Thunderbolt chariot. They were about to reach the chariot. Suddenly, the horn sounded, and two cavalry teams rushed out from the Han army formation, and one team went straight to the gate of Meiji City. , a team charged towards the Huns cavalry.

"Kill it!"

Yuchijin roared loudly, and the cavalry behind him rushed straight out, like a tiger descending a mountain, with a menacing aura.

Lu An's eyes turned cold. In fact, he knew that the Han army would definitely be prepared, and how could he easily destroy the catapult? However, he had no choice but to risk his life and leave the city.

The two teams of cavalry collided violently, and they were immediately turned on their backs. In Meiji City, a fierce fight started.

Yuchijin took the lead and rushed into the Huns' formation, and the Huns who killed them ran away with their heads in their hands, one after another to avoid it. It didn't take a moment for the Huns cavalry led by Lu An to lose their morale.

"My lord, we are trapped, retreat quickly!"

A centurion covered in blood came to Lu An's side and shouted anxiously.

Lu An straightened his body, looked back at the direction of the city gate, his face turned livid with fright, the way back had been blocked by Han cavalry.

"Woooo..."

At this moment, the horns sounded again in the formation of the Han army, and hundreds of archers, guarded by sword and shield soldiers, rushed out of the formation and came towards this side.

In the formation of archers, Xin Qiji held a long sword and looked at the Huns indifferently, as if he was looking at a group of dead people.
