Chapter 19
To the north of Yinshan Mountain, Monan Grassland.

The cold winter has passed, the frozen river is covered with icicles, new buds have not yet grown on the bare branches, and there is still thin snow on the undulating mountain tops. It seems that spring has not come to the earth.

Gaoquesai (near Bayannur, Inner Mongolia today), this is the westernmost end of the Great Wall of Zhao State in the past, and from this point to the north, it entered the territory of the Huns.

When the elite Great Wall Corps guarding here received an order from Xianyang to go south to the Guandong to quell the chaos, only a few thousand old and weak and the families of the garrison soldiers were left guarding this fortress.

Today, the sun rises as usual.

The veteran who was in charge of the changing of the guard went up to the top of the city yawning as usual, replaced his comrades, and did the same job as in the past.

Suddenly, a shrill horn sounded.

The veteran raised his head and looked at the tall and crude building on the fortress, only to see that the one missing half an ear had a panicked face, put down his horn, and was yelling something loudly.

An ominous premonition welled up in his heart, he quickly took two steps, lay down on the top of the city and looked towards the north.

On the withered and yellow grassland in the distance, a black line slowly appeared.

Boundless!

After a while, the old soldier held the hand of the city wall and felt the tremors from the ground.

In the distance, the black line gradually became thicker, and the sharp spearheads and scimitars reflected dazzling light.

In the middle of the black line, a large black flag embroidered with a bleeding wolf's head was fluttering in the wind.

"Enemy attack!"

"It's the Huns!"

In the ears of the veteran, the mournful shouts of Gao Quesai's defenders sounded.

…………

Under the wolf flag, on a snow-white war horse sat a man with a big arm and a round waist, and eagle eyes.

It can be seen from the golden eagle crown flying high on his head that this is the birth of the swamp, the incarnation of the wolf god, the conqueror of the northern grassland, the Huns, the Donghu people, the Hunkeng people, and the Qushe people. , Ding Lingren, Gekun people, and Xinli people are the masters, the king of kings.

Mo Dun Shan Yu.

He was riding on horseback, supported the eagle crown on his head with the whip in his hand, and looked at Gao Quesai in the distance, with a wolf-like expression on his face.

The man who left the Huns breathless is dead...

The general who made the Huns dare not go south to graze horses also died...

The army that terrified the Huns is gone...

Nowadays, in the fortress of the Qin people, apart from the old, weak, sick and disabled, there are only women and children.

Take advantage of his illness and kill him!
The time has come to break through the gates and revive the prestige of the Huns!

Mao Dun raised his whip suddenly and shouted loudly:
"Children of the Canglang God, mount your horses, brandish your knives, let us take back there, and take back the dignity that belongs to the Huns!"

"Break down that fortress, let the fat grassland become the pasture of the Huns again, and let the men of Qin State who used to show off their might become your slaves! Let the women of Qin State who are as delicate as white sheep offer their bodies to you, for you Have children!"

"The first warrior to climb to the top of the city will own half of the women and wealth in the city!"

……

Accompanied by Maodun's shouting with his whip raised high, wolves howled one after another under his instigation, and the desire to conquer, plunder, revenge, kill, etc., burned in the hearts of every Hun warrior.

Mao Dun listened to the howling of wolves with satisfaction, and swung his whip violently: "Drink snow water, eat dried meat, all warriors will have a full meal, and go to fight like wolves!"

The bloodthirsty warriors were excited, and the entire grassland was boiling for this battle. The icy-cold snowmelt water was swallowed, and large pieces of dried meat were cut with knives, and they almost swallowed without chewing.

Murderous, do not need too much to tell, all the Huns know how rich Qin is, how beautiful Qin's daughter is, to kill, to plunder, to possess more women's desire, so that the weakest soldiers become A tiger.

…………

Gao Quesai.

There was also no need to mobilize too much, the fortress and the Qin people living in the fortress had all stood at the top of the city.

Regardless of age, male or female.

Many people wore a loose leather armor, the only thing in common was that they all used sackcloth strips to tightly bind the weapons in their hands with the hands holding them.

As long as there is a breath in the chest, the fighting will not stop!
This battle has nothing to do with the cruelty of the Huns, nor the responsibility of the Qin people to defend the land.

This battle is the belief in the hearts of these Qin people.

The city is alive and the people are alive, but the city is dead and the people are dead!
But teach the Qin people to not let the Hulu cross the Yinshan Mountain!
…………

On the south bank of Zhangshui River, Jiyuan.

On the short hillside, the flowers are withered, the dead trees and leaves are fallen, and only the green and tenacious pines and cypresses are bright and colorful to the chilling wilderness.

Standing between the pines and cypresses was a middle-aged man with a bitter face, wearing a black Qin army general's armor and a bright red owl crown.

This person was Zhang Han, the general of the Qin State who led the army to kill Chen Sheng and Xiang Liang.

Since Wang Li's army defeated Julu, he led his men to gather up the defeated scattered soldiers, and retreated all the way south, finally gaining a firm foothold in Jiyuan, and once again confronted the coalition forces of the feudal lords who were narrowly victorious.

However, victory or defeat is a common matter for military strategists, and he did not lose the courage to fight Xiang Yu.

On the contrary, in his heart, he has already planned a plan that can counterattack the Jedi.

That is the elite Lantian Army stationed on both sides of the river, led by Huben General Yang Xiong and Wei General Zhao Ben!

As long as this army goes north, it will be able to form a pincer attack on the coalition forces of the princes north of Zhangshui. Coupled with the lack of food and grass for the coalition forces of the princes, a long-term confrontation will inevitably lead to civil strife!

At that time, after my army has received the food and grass brought in from the Central Plains, it will attack across the board, and coupled with the flanking attack of the Lantian Army, it will definitely be able to win back the city. If all goes well, it may be possible to wipe out this group of rebels!
Zhang Han simply drew on the ground with his feet, and felt that this method was the safest.

I suffered from too many divisions before, but as a result, one point was broken and the whole line collapsed.

So this time we have to clench our fists and fight head-to-head with the coalition forces of the princes, using overwhelming strength to win the final victory!

Thinking of this, Zhang Han sighed again.

If you are not careful, you will lose the whole game.

What was lost in the previous Battle of Julu was not only the more than [-] soldiers who were finally trained, but more importantly, the invincible spirit of the Qin army was defeated!
So this is why he retreated again and again and never fought head-on with the coalition forces of the princes.

One side is singing and marching forward, the morale is like a rainbow, and the other side is like a frightened bird.

You don't have to fight this battle, you know you will lose!
All of a sudden, a rider from afar came like flying.

Judging from the rider's attire, he should be a messenger from Xianyang City.

Zhang Han opened the bamboo slips sent by the courier and looked at it. It was the second emperor's scolding to him, but he didn't take it seriously.

The general will be outside, and the military orders will not be accepted.

Moreover, there is still Prime Minister Li Si in the court who controls the overall situation, as long as someone is sent to explain the situation to the prime minister and the emperor, it will be fine.

"Where's Chief Shi Sima Xin?"
