Destiny Only Han

The horse neighs on the top of the mountain, and the bird is tired and frightens the jade branch.

It was late autumn in the Central Plains at this time, but in this place at [-] degrees north latitude, the first snow of the year had already fallen.

Amidst the falling snowflakes, Liu Ying huddled on the horseback, endured the cold wind blowing towards her face like a knife, and walked slowly on the mountain trail.

Behind him, there were [-] Han infantrymen who were driving ox carts and also wrapped themselves into rice dumplings.

After laying down Shanyu headquarters, Liu Ying, who was going to try his luck on Baideng Mountain, and was going to bleed the Xiongnu, chose to divide the troops on the spot, and let the auxiliary soldiers and some soldiers escort the prisoners and livestock back to Shangjun.

Attacking several tribes of the Huns one after another, Liu Ying captured nearly [-] Huns and tens of thousands of cattle, sheep and horses.

The latter will naturally be sold domestically to subsidize the treasury.

As for the former, although the elderly accounted for a large proportion of the Huns captured in this battle, those Hun women and children could be sold for a good price.

For example, Xia Houying's servant, in addition to being responsible for driving the emperor's chariot, building the imperial palace, and participating in political discussions, was also in charge of the official racecourse, providing the army with a steady stream of war horses.

So for those shepherds who understand the temperament of livestock, the more the better!

Well, although the Taifu Mansion is also a government agency, the meals are still eaten separately...

While Liu Ying was shivering from the cold, Han Xin frowned when a horse flew towards him from afar.

In fact, he didn't really approve of Liu Yingbing's vain mountaineering. In his opinion, this partial division of tens of thousands of people had completed its mission after sweeping the rear of the Huns one after another. The main corps is a great achievement!
Now Liu Ying's plan is tantamount to taking a risk.

In the last years of the Qin Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and the border guards were basically transferred to the Central Plains to counter the rebellion, so that the Great Wall defense line fell, and Yunzhong County became a horse herding land for the Huns.

At that time, Yanmen County, which was in the rear, was also invaded by nomads and bandits in the surrounding area. The surviving people either moved to Taiyuan County, Dai County, or simply went to the Huns to escape corvee... …

The border county that used to be an empire is now a wilderness.

When the army marched in such a place, especially when the main force of the Xiongnu just passed by here, it was undoubtedly wandering on top of the sword. If one was not careful, they would be besieged by the Huns and trapped in a dangerous place.

But there is no way, as Liu Ying's 'brother', since Liu Ying insists on going to Baideng Mountain, he can only do his best to keep the army from making mistakes...

After a while, the scouts galloped to the front, rolled off the saddle and got off the horse.

"Report to His Royal Highness..."

"No, call me General Zhengxi!"

The scout raised his head in bewilderment, looked at the serious Liu Ying, and sighed helplessly: "Report to His Royal Highness General Zhengxi, the enemy is found twenty miles ahead, and the enemy seems to be outflanking our army!"

After Han Xin and Liu Ying looked at each other, they found that he had no intention of giving up the previous plan, so he spread out the map silently, pointed to the mountain on the right and said, "Since the Huns are coming, let's stand here and wait for help! "

Liu Ying looked up and saw that the terrain there was relatively flat and overgrown with grass. She frowned and asked, "Why did you choose this place? Do you have any explanation?"

Han Xin smiled confidently, put the map in front of Liu Ying, pointed his finger and said, "Yes."

Liu Ying lowered her head, with a surprised expression on her face: "Wuzhou Fortress?"

Han Xin explained with a smile: "That's right, Wuzhou is fortified! After Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, he sent Meng Tian to lead an army of 30 north to attack the Xiongnu. Then he connected the northern Great Walls of Qin, Yan, and Zhao, and built the Great Wall starting from Liaodong in the east. West to the new Great Wall at Lintao."

Liu Ying nodded, mourning for a second of silence for Fan Xiliang, who does not really exist, but who will definitely have real deeds, and then asked: "Then what does this have to do with the Wuzhou Fortress you mentioned?"

Han Xin continued: "If Jiuyuan City and Gaoque Fortress are the support points of the Great Wall of Qin, then Wuzhou Fortress is the support point of the Great Wall of Zhao. Troops are stationed here, next to Pingcheng, and backed by Dai County and Taiyuan County. Whether it is the transfer of soldiers, or the transfer of food and grass, it is very convenient!"

Liu Ying nodded slightly, and doubts arose in her heart immediately.

He took out a map from his pocket and compared it, looked at Han Xin and asked, "Why isn't it on my map?"

Han Xin said with a smile:

"The map you took was drawn by Qin Shihuang in the 35th year. At that time, the Wuzhou Fortress had not yet started to be built, so naturally it would not be on the map. The Qin system, the map was remade every five years, and by the time it was redrawn, the world had already been laid. It's a bunch..."

Well, it’s all the fault of the first emperor... After Liu Ying succeeded in throwing the blame away, she pointed to a place in the distance that had been submerged in weeds and could not see the road at all, and asked again: "Then, why is there on your map?"

Han Xin shook the snow on the cloak, and said calmly: "Because after the Dai Kingdom was conquered, all the maps hidden in the Dai King's Palace fell into the hands of someone..."

Everything captured will be returned to the public... After Liu Ying glared at him, she remembered a guy who was also trying to go up the mountain to guard, so she asked: "But, if we go up the mountain and stick to it, what if the water source is cut off by the Huns? "

Han Xin tilted his head: "I thought you would ask Wuzhou Fortress, which has been deserted for a long time, and the city wall may have been destroyed long ago?"

Liu Ying put her hands on her hips: "I'm not a fool! Qin's laws are strict, and Wuzhou Fortress was built by Meng Tian when Qin Shihuang was there. Naturally, the quality of the city walls is not bad. This can be seen from the abandoned old Great Wall. Already!"

Han Xin showed a narrow smile on his face: "Aren't you a fool? Well, yes. Then think about it, since the quality of the city walls of Wuzhou Fortress is not bad, wouldn't the builders of the city consider the issue of water diversion for the guards?"

"Let me tell you, the source of the small river we passed before is in Wuzhou Fortress!"

Liu Ying ignored Han Xin's contempt for him, and said calmly, "I think there must be a beacon tower in the fortress?"

Han Xin looked sideways and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Liu Ying raised her head at a 45-degree angle: "Naturally, it's a cloud-piercing arrow. Thousands of troops are coming to meet you!"

....................................

On the mountain road, a black wolf flag came by the wind, and the giant black wolf painted on the flag opened its bloody mouth, which made people feel shuddering.

Along with the wolf flag came tens of thousands of Hun cavalry who almost completely blocked the mountain road.

And the one looking left and right under the wolf banner is the Youxian King of the Huns, Suanji Porridge.

At this moment, he looked at the empty mountain road in front of him, and his heart was filled with regret.

What about the Han army?
So where did the big Han army go?
Not long ago, a herdsman who was grazing horses on the top of the mountain reported that a large Han army was approaching from the other side of the mountain.

And combined with the information sent by King Youguli, this Han army must be the one that robbed King Aries and King Loufan, as well as Shan Yu's headquarters!
Deceiving too much!

Mao Dun vomited a mouthful of blood angrily on the spot and fell into a coma, so the task of destroying this Han army at all costs naturally fell on the body of Yan Ji Porridge.

After looking at it for a while, his eyes were gradually attracted by the messy bushes on the hillside.

There, there are obviously traces of the army passing by!

"Ha, found you!"

Ji Porridge drew out his waist knife and galloped up on his horse.

Behind him, many riders with buns on their heads and leather robes in the style of the Huns followed closely.

These people are exactly the frontier troops of Qin State who were recruited by Maodun.

In the previous battle with Liu Bang, the Huns had already seen the power of the Han army's chariot formation. If they simply let the Huns warriors charge into the formation, they would undoubtedly be giving away their heads.

Therefore, in this battle, he deliberately brought these soldiers who are good at foot combat.

It is the wisdom of the people of the Central Plains to control the people of the Central Plains.

But he ran up the mountain for a while, and gradually became stunned in the deserted mountain road.

On the mountainside in the distance, a fortress appeared out of thin air, a fortress with the flag of the Han army on it!
Although the city wall looks a bit dilapidated, the stone flakes pasted in many places have peeled off, and the archery tower on the top of the city has already collapsed, but a fortress is a fortress, especially a fortress full of defenders, it is definitely not them Only light cavalry with short spears and round shields can attack!

And behind Suo Jijiu, there were soft discussions among the soldiers of Qin State.

"Hey, isn't this Wuzhou Fortress?"

"It seems to be, I said how the more I walked before, the more I felt familiar..."

"Shut up, don't you want to live?"

Some older and experienced soldiers in the crowd suppressed the discussion of the people around them.

Because they did not recognize and report this fortress in time, the Han army successfully took advantage of the geographical advantage. If this matter is pursued, none of them will live!
Fortunately, it seems that Ji Porridge doesn't understand their words very well...

When the Huns were stupid on the mountainside, not knowing what to attack or what to do, a plume of black smoke rose into the sky at the highest point of the city in Wuzhou.

Although the smoke column was swayed by the strong wind on the top of the mountain, it became thicker and thicker. Even though the sky was still covered with snowflakes, it was still clearly visible.

Liu Ying stood under the beacon tower, determined in her heart.

A lot of cattle and horses were successfully captured from the Huns before, so the army's ability to carry luggage is even stronger.

The grain and fodder in his carriage were enough to feed the whole army for more than a month.

Moreover, the buildings of the Qin Dynasty were mainly made of wood. This deserted fortress is full of collapsed houses, and there is no shortage of rolling logs and stones for defending the city. The most important thing is that there are a lot of firewood for heating and cooking!
Liu Ying also looked at the water source. There is a huge fountain in the center of the fortress. It may be due to the need for fire prevention. The fountain was widened and a pool was built, and then it was diverted to the four corners of the fortress, and then flowed out of the fortress from an underground ditch.

Liu Ying stood on her tiptoes and looked at the porridge in the distance, regardless of whether he could see it or not, she raised her hand to say hello.

"Ha, I can guard this wall until I die of old age!"

ps: change first and then change.
