National color raw owl

The cold winter is severe, and the climate in the north is of course very different from that in the south. For Dingwu and many guards who have lived in the south for a long time, the chill in the air does make people feel a little uncomfortable, but the barbarians are not. In this way, the climate in the Mobei prairie is even worse. They are used to such cold, and although their fur suits are not as strong as the armor of the Qin army, they are more resistant to the cold in this harsh winter.

With the barbarian soldiers approaching the city, Dingwu certainly could not hope to negotiate peace with them, and naturally there was no need to continue the negotiation.

Seeing no movement from the city tower, Guli Jinma couldn't help shouting: "Emperor of the Great Qin, don't you even have the courage to talk to me when you see my grassland army?" Now, as long as you open the city gate and welcome us into the city, Tushi Khan will still grant you the title of Emperor of Qin, and Tushi Khan also said that as long as you are willing to bow your head and become a vassal, Tushi Khan is willing to help you continue to suppress bandits."

"I am the Great Qin, why do I need you barbarians to give me the title?" A slight smile appeared on Dingwu's lips. Although his voice was not loud, it was clearly heard in Guli Jinma's ears, "tell me Tushi, if he doesn't retreat, I won't be able to tell others, but he, Tushi Khan, has made it to the top, and I guarantee that he won't be able to return to the grassland alive."

Gu Li Jinma laughed and said: "It is said that people in the Central Plains are not ashamed and like to brag. It seems that this is true. You said that you are the emperor of the Great Qin, but now you only have this city in your hands. Your Qin country is full of rebels. My lord, no one listens to your orders at all. At this time, you still have the cheek to say that you are the emperor of Qin. It seems that you, the emperor, have more shame than the gray cows in my circle... .!" Before he could utter the last few words, a meteor-like arrow had already flown in front of his eyes, and he had no time to react. With a "poof", the arrow had already pierced his throat, Guli Jinma The whole person fell to the ground immediately.

The barbarian cavalry on the side were all taken aback. Shooting an arrow through the throat from the top of the city is actually not that powerful. There are not a few barbarian archers. It is easy to choose such an archer, but The speed of this arrow was appalling. What was even more frightening was that after the arrow pierced through the throat, it even brought Guli Jinma off the horse, so the strength of the arrow was unimaginable.

Some of the barbarian cavalry looked up, only to see a general on the top of the wall retracting his longbow, that man was wearing refined armor, Guli Jinma was naturally killed by him.

The barbarian soldiers immediately turned around and left. One of them pulled Guli Jinma's body and retreated hastily.

Guli Jinma was shot and fell off the horse, and the soldiers in front of the two sides naturally saw it. There was a moment of silence inside and outside the city, and then the horns sounded outside the city, shouting and shouting, and a row of cavalrymen Rushing towards the city wall, they were as fast as flying horses, galloping among the horses, drawing bows and shooting arrows like locusts.

The defenders at the top of the city only heard the tragic and sharp sound of arrows piercing the air. The air seemed to be cut at that moment, followed by a "ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, pong" sound, and sharp arrows were everywhere.

"Protect the Holy Majesty!" Xuanyuan Shao pulled a shield and stood in front of Dingwu. He didn't speak just now, but he was always by Dingwu's side. The Great Qin Emperor is now just the lord of a city, so Xuanyuan Shao was naturally impolite, and shot an arrow to kill him. Seeing the barbarians rushing over, he shouted sharply: "Let the arrow!"

Xuanyuan Shao is the commander of the guards, and the guards defending the city are all his subordinates. He is a peerless archer himself, so he naturally focuses on training the guards under his command in their archery skills.

The Guards were originally the Royal Guards, an army that had no choice but to take action. By the time the Guards came into battle, the situation must have reached a critical moment. Therefore, Xuanyuan Shao's training of the Guards really started with defense. The best soldiers are strictly selected, and it is easy to ride and shoot arrows.

When Xuanyuan Shao gave an order at this time, all the elite soldiers were mobilized on the battlements. When the barbarian cavalry rushed over, they drew their bows and counterattacked, and arrows rained down.

Earlier, the [-] barbarian cavalry attacked Wuping Fucheng many times, and it was with the dense arrows of the guards that they repelled the attacks of the barbarians time and time again.

They were condescending, and their arrows were full of power. The horses whimpered and whined under the city for a while, and the barbarian soldiers who rushed to the front fell instantly.

The archers at the top of the city were divided into two rows. After the first row shot arrows, when the arrows were taken, the rear team immediately filled up. The arrows from the two teams shot continuously, and the barbarian soldiers had suffered heavy casualties before they rushed under the city wall .

The barbarian soldiers saw that the situation was not good, but they did not attack forcefully. They circled their horses one after another and hid beyond the range of the arrows on the battlements.

Seeing the barbarian soldiers retreat, the defenders at the top of the city also stopped shooting arrows. Suddenly, another sound of horns was heard, and the barbarian soldiers suddenly fell silent. Barbarian soldiers galloped out with flags, lined up on both sides, and then rushed out from the middle of a group of men and horses. The men on the horses were all wearing armor, surrounded by a man in a purple brocade robe and left the army formation.

The corners of Dingwu's eyes are slightly twitched, the barbarians include a man in a golden robe, this person is very conspicuous in the army when he comes out.

This person is not very old, less than 40 years old, with a gloomy expression and a sturdy figure. He immediately sat upright, exuding a vigorous momentum, and the soldiers around him were all respectful. Behind him, a red goshawk flag Holding it up high, it fluttered in the wind, and Qiu Tong immediately said to Dingwu: "My lord, that flag... that flag is the king's flag of Tushi Khan!"

"It seems that he went out in person." Dingwu smiled lightly, but saw Tushi Khan in a brocade robe galloping forward, surrounded by armored men and guards, not far from the city. Still outside the range of the archers at the top of the city, Tushi Khan raised his hand and pointed at the horse whip: "Emperor Qin, Ben Khan gave you a chance, but you didn't take it seriously. I'm afraid you will regret it too late." His voice was unusually loud, like thunder, and it came from afar.

He suddenly stretched out his hand, and a person next to him presented a bow. Tushi Khan took the long bow, took an arrow, bent the bow and set the arrow, and pointed it at the top of the city.

Many soldiers at the top of the city didn't take it seriously. With such a distance, it is difficult for arrows to pose a threat, let alone shooting from the bottom of the city to the top of the city. Everyone only thought that even if the opponent shot an arrow, they would not be able to hit the top of the city.

Tu Shi Khan didn't hesitate at all, he let go of the bowstring, and the sharp arrow shot straight towards the top of the city like a shooting star. The arrow was powerful and the speed was not slow. With a sound of "poof", the sharp arrow shot into the chest of a soldier defending the city, and the soldier fell to the ground. At this time, there was a sound of howling in the city, and countless barbarian soldiers raised their hands and raised their scimitars and long bows. , Shouting loudly, the momentum was extremely spectacular for a while.

Ding Wu, Xuanyuan Shao and others were also a little surprised when they saw this arrow.

Although Xuanyuan Shao is unparalleled in archery, he can shoot such an arrow, but he has to rely on the bodhi finger to shoot such a sharp arrow, but Tushi Khan probably doesn't understand the bodhi finger, his arrow is The ejaculation is completely by personal ability, and the end is extremely amazing.

Tu Shi Khan handed the longbow in his hand to the subordinates beside him, then raised his hand to stroke his beard, looked at the top of the city, his face was full of complacency.

Dingwu knew that the arrow of Tushi Khan not only dampened the morale of the defenders, but also greatly boosted the morale of the barbarians. He glanced at Xuanyuanshao, Xuanyuanshao nodded slightly, understood what Dingwu meant, and didn't say anything. After passing three long arrows, he rose up, jumped onto the battlements, condescending, majestic, with both arms fully drawn, the long bow was already full, but on the long bow, there were three arrows, one bow and three arrows .

He was standing on the battlements, standing against the wind, about to fly away, let go of his hand and shot out with a stern shout.

The arrow went to the shooting star, three arrows were fired together, the wind was strong in the air, the three arrows pierced through the barrier of the air, and went straight to Tushi Khan. Although the soldiers at the top of the city knew that Xuanyuan Shao was good at archery, not everyone knew it. Had the opportunity to see Xuanyuan Shaolu's hand, even if Xuanyuan Shao's skill of shooting three arrows with one bow, it had been passed down in the army for many years, but no one had the opportunity to see it in person. They shouted in unison, their voices could move the sky, but they all looked at the result with scorching eyes, only hoping to kill that arrogant Tushi Khan with one arrow, and the admiration in the hearts of everyone was even greater.

Seeing Xuanyuan Shao jumping onto the battlements like a god, Natu Shi Khan knew that something was wrong, his face was shocked, and he lost his voice: "Iron Shield!"

The armored warriors beside him were already lying in front of Tushi Khan, more than a dozen guards lined up in two rows, raised their iron shields and placed them in front of him, like two iron walls protecting Tushi Khan.

"Dangdangdang!"

There were three consecutive beeps, and the three long arrows hit the shield accurately. Everyone immediately saw that although the long arrows failed to pierce the iron shield, the bodies of the three barbarian soldiers who were holding the iron shield had already turned backwards. It flew out, like three stones, and hit heavily on the iron shield of the companion behind him, and the three people behind him were also sent flying by the collision force of their companions, and one of them happened to bump into Tushi Khan.

Seeing the guard flying towards him, Tu Shi Khan was taken aback. He never imagined that Xuanyuan Shao's long arrow would be so powerful. The gorgeous brocade robe immediately stuck to the snow that had been trampled by horseshoes on the ground, and he was in a panic for a while.

Xuanyuan Shao shot three arrows, although he didn't kill Tu Shi Khan, he still showed his might. The defenders burst into cheers. Pointing to the majestic city ahead, he shouted loudly: "Whoever is the first to attack the top of the city, Ben Khan will reward a hundred taels of gold and a hundred beauties!"

He shouted in a deep voice, and when the barbarians heard Tushi Khan's voice, their morale was immediately boosted. Although not everyone recognized that Tushi Khan was the sweat of the barbarian-barbarian coalition, everyone knew that Tushi Khan's family background Rich, huge tribe, a hundred taels of gold is not too much for Tushi Khan, it can be taken out, and Chi Yan tribe is full of beauties, not only can get a hundred taels of gold, but also a hundred beauties as rewards, heavy rewards There must be a brave man below. When everyone heard the golden beauty's generous reward, they flocked forward without hesitation. Some of them shot sharp arrows and pinned down the soldiers on the battlements, while others rushed towards the city gate.

In the past, seven thousand barbarian cavalry attacked the city many times. The method of attacking the city was to kill the city gate, wanting to destroy the city gate with knives and axes, and then rush in. However, as the first strong city in Hexi, not only the city wall is strong, but the city gate It is also extremely strong. If you want to break the city with a knife and an axe, it is naturally a foolish dream. Later generations will not forget the teacher of the predecessors. It's just a tendon, and after these days of rest, I have come up with some methods.

They made a batch of iron hooks to throw the ropes, but they wanted to rush to the city and rely on the agility of the grassland warriors to attack the city with the hooks and ropes.

The defenders at the top of the city saw the ants-like barbarians rushing towards them, and immediately grasped their swords and long bows, but Dingwu held the sword of the emperor in his hand. Seeing that the barbarians were not good at attacking the city, although the method of attacking the city this time seemed Some progress was made, but the siege tools were still extremely crude and could not form an effective effect at all. He suddenly settled down and was not in a hurry to let the soldiers fight back. When the barbarian soldiers rushed to the city, they ordered to hit the city gate with huge boulders. The barbarian soldiers who came down fell like rain, and those barbarian soldiers who wanted to destroy the city gate suffered heavy losses, and the front of the city gate became the hardest hit area.

More barbarian soldiers rushed to other sections of the city wall, throwing hooks and throwing ropes. Ding Wu waited until the barbarian soldiers climbed hard halfway, and then let the soldiers shoot arrows, and the long hairs poked out. The barbarians fell from mid-air, causing heavy casualties. The defenders at the top of the city relied on high walls and battlement fortresses to guard them. Although many soldiers were hit by cold arrows and fell from the top of the city, the casualties were still very slight.

Although the barbarian soldiers suffered heavy casualties, but when they really wanted to fight, they still marched forward with incomparable ferocity. There were already piles of corpses under the city wall, and blood flowed like rivers, but the barbarian soldiers continued to advance and showed no sign of retreating. In fact, a few barbarian soldiers climbed to the top of the city with hooks, but they were instantly chopped into pieces by the guards who swarmed up.

Fighting until noon, Tu Shi Khan saw that the barbarian soldiers suffered heavy casualties, but Wuping Fucheng was extremely strong and hard to shake. If the attack continues like this, more people will be killed and injured.Knowing that this is not the way to go, with a livid face, he had no choice but to withdraw his troops early, surround Wuping Fucheng first, and then make further calculations.

Dingwu saw that the barbarian soldiers had retreated, and knew that they also understood that such a siege would not be of much use at all, and they would also get along with other methods to attack the city again, and let the defenders continue to monitor closely, and report immediately if there is any movement , and immediately vacated a house not far behind the city gate as a command post, and called his civil and military ministers to discuss the next countermeasures.

The officials of all sizes in the city gathered in one room, set up the military as the emperor, and personally commanded the war, which really boosted the morale of the soldiers and civilians in the city, but for most officials, they were worried. Everyone can see it, now that the city is under siege, everyone has no good strategy to defeat the enemy.

When the barbarians took down Wuping Fucheng, they fully showed their stubbornness. They vowed not to give up until they achieved their goal. But it is extremely sinister.

Many of the ministers present were in the officialdom in the past, with frequent schemes and schemes, but now that the isolated city is trapped, they are all worried.

If there is a chance to escape, many officials and gentry must have disappeared, but now the city is trapped, from the emperor to the pawns, life and death are connected.
