Lords of War: Sinicized Dragonborn

Chapter 79: The Huns Come Back, Liyue Leads the Popularization of Chinese Theory

After a sneak attack in the middle of the night, they won a complete victory and all members returned safely to Shule City. Everyone was filled with joy and pride.

After an epic night raid on the enemy camp in Romance, Li Di, who was obsessed with killing the Huns, apart from these emotions, the rest is just a regret of not being able to meet the commander of the Huns and not being able to kill the enemy general... …

In addition to this emotion, Emperor Li, who understands history, is also very clear that although everyone in Shule City completed a night attack of two hundred and five thousand tonight, the results were brilliant.

However, the situation facing Shule City is different from that of Li Yueling in the Wild Continent. It doesn't mean that Shule City will no longer have enemies after repelling these Xiongnu enemies.

Unlike the Hun army’s previous attitude towards Shule City, which was only besieging but not attacking, they believed that the Han frontier guards with a few hundred people in the middle of Shule City would clearly recognize the gap in the strength of the two sides, and then nest in Shule City very honestly. Among them, the cognition of not daring to do anything is different.

When the Xiongnu army thought that the few hundred Han border guards in Shule City were a cowardly dog ​​who didn't even dare to bark twice.

But he didn't expect that this big man would sneakily show his fangs viciously, and when he got the chance, he would bite off a piece of flesh and blood from the enemy of the Huns!
Show that you are not a cowardly attitude, even if you have a large number of Hun Rangers, even if my Shule City has no reinforcements at all, the hundreds of Han soldiers in my Shule City will not let you Hun bandits In the territory of my big man, after acting recklessly!

The attitude of the Xiongnu enemies towards this small town with few people and few soldiers will be completely different from that of the hundreds of Han soldiers in Shule City.

It can be said that when the Huns who were defeated tonight call for reinforcements and make a comeback again, the situation facing Shule City will be countless times more difficult and dangerous than it is now!
The truly relaxed days of Shule City will be gone forever...

[Reminder] Lord of War, you led your soldiers tonight to complete a raid on the camp and won a brilliant and dazzling battle victory. You will be rewarded with 3000 battle experience, 1500 gold coins and 100 Dawan horses.

[Reminder] Please pay attention to the war lord, all the gains obtained in the trial secret realm, all the external things except experience, can only be brought out of the secret realm after successfully passing the secret realm trial...

【Tips】Satisfying battle experience can increase the battle level. Please choose one of the following three options.

[Tips] [-]. Improve the existing combat talents!
[Tips] Second, acquire a new combat talent, Heavenly Creation Art.

[Tips] Three, improve the existing combat talents!
Li Di did not expect that after the campaign level was raised this time, there would be no new optional campaign talents. Instead, except for one natural creation, two consecutive choices would be to upgrade the existing campaign talents.

If you don’t have it, then you don’t have it, even if it’s only the battle talents he possesses now, Li Di will persist until the end of the trial secret realm of respectfully worshiping the well!

Witness in person the moment when the last surviving [-] legendary soldiers of Shule City returned triumphantly and stepped into Yumen Pass, achieving the moment of epic legend!
Considering that he and the people led by Liyue still need to stay in Shule City for half a year, and the next time the Huns attack again, Shule City will face a dangerous situation.

Li Di had no choice this time, the talent of the industry department, which involves the development of all industries in the territory, is a work of nature.

Instead, he chose the current combat talent that can improve the combat effectiveness of himself and Li Yueling, the primary Qimen Dunjia technique!
[Tips] Raise the basic Qimen Dunjia technique to the intermediate level, allowing the hero to rearrange the formation of the commanding troops before the battle begins, the soldier's faith will increase by 2 per day, the physical recovery speed will be accelerated by 30%, the combat damage will be increased by 20%, and the damage received will be reduced 10%. 】

[Array of Eight Gates] The troops commanded by a hero can form an array of eight gates from eight formation units. The life and physical strength of all formation units are linked and shared, and the eight-door formation eyes of the formation units are different. , prompting 10%-80% of all adventure attributes respectively.

[Reminder] Lord of War, your battle level is currently level 6 (experience required for the next level is 2000/6400). 】

Uh, seeing the improved attributes of the Qimen Dunjia Technique and the attributes of the Array of Eight Gates, Li Di couldn't help scratching his head, this is good...

From now on, the Liyue generals under him will probably not be qualified to lead troops if they are not good at mathematics...

Li Di carefully calculated the number of people he brought into the trial secret realm this time.

The most basic eight-door formation requires eight people, and the double eight-door formation requires 64 people.

If the formation of three oddities is used as the eye of the formation, the formation of eight gates needs 24 people.

And if it is a double three-odd formation of nine people, 72 people are needed to form eight gates...

To sum it up, Li Di sighed for the first time that the number of people he brought into the trial secret realm this time is still too small...

And as another leader who has a very thorough understanding of the current situation of Shule City, the captain of the Great Han Wuji, Li Di's brother Geng Gong, is also very aware of the severe situation that Shule City will face in the future.

All the soldiers returned triumphantly tonight, and they must be rewarded generously, but considering the worry that the Huns and bandits may make a comeback again.

Geng Gong, the guard of Shule City, just turned the original bran porridge into bran meat porridge with diced meat.

After a night of intense fighting and a night of worrying on duty, everyone in Shule City was in a state of exhaustion.

After hastily eating a reward meal, everyone who should rest also rested.

Until the next morning, Emperor Li, who woke up again, immediately got the good news that the Xiongnu army outside the city had confirmed that they had completely retreated.

Compared with night raids and battles, Shule City needs to do more work after the Huns retreat.

Geng He and other big fellows who were good at riding horses were released by Geng Gong one after another outside the city to investigate the movement of the Huns army, and took the opportunity to gather them. Last night, because Geng Gong and Li Di and others set fire to the Huns, the cattle, sheep, horses and animals scattered in a panic group.

In addition to activities outside the city, there are more jobs in Shule City!

Militia weapon training, city defense training, arrow weapon making, collecting wood and rolling stones, and repairing the city wall, it can be said that in the entire Shule City, everyone from civilians to Geng Gong was mobilized...

As for Li Di, he was also assigned several key tasks or jobs, and he also had to earnestly study the way of being a general and the tactics on the battlefield...

Afterwards, Shule City experienced a two-week period of peace, and the Xiongnu bandits came again!

Far more than when Emperor Li saw the Xiongnu besieging Shule City for the first time, more Xiongnu troops came galloping aggressively.

Unlike the last time, the Xiongnu army didn't care or care about this small broken city that was located in a remote area, with few people in the city and poor supplies.

Compared to robbing and attacking such a small city that is hard to fight and has few resources and loot, these Xiongnu bandits prefer to attack the hinterland of the Great Han Central Plains, those rich villages that are scattered around the big city, defenseless and defenseless.

The purpose of the Xiongnu army attacking the big Han is to plunder materials and women. There are two kinds of small towns with big Han officers and soldiers stationed in the fortified city, or villages with rich supplies and a large population. Which one is easier to plunder, as long as it is an individual and not stupid. trade-offs.

Just like modern times, many people have heard of robbing gold stores and robbing banks, but how many people have seen or heard of bandits armed with simple weapons robbing the treasury?
The tens of thousands of Xiongnu troops who arrived this time just arrived outside Shule City, but after a brief night of rest, they began to attack Shule City in front of them on the second day!
Even if the cavalry attack the city, it is bound to cause a huge loss of troops. These Huns and bandits also showed their determination to take down Shule City.

Just as Li Di and Geng Gong had expected before, Shule City is now in the eyes of such Xiongnu bandits.

It has been upgraded from an insignificant onlooker role to a person who expresses his attitude, will interfere and threaten the Huns army, and hinder the safety of the back home after robbing the Han Central Plains.

Therefore, Li Di, who had experienced a night attack, was especially unsatisfied. For the first time, he personally experienced a battle to defend the city, which made people exhausted and could not even raise his hand to hold a bowl.

As a small city, Shule City only has city gates in the front and back directions, and the rest of the directions are surrounded by nine-meter-high rammed earth walls.

After the siege of the Xiongnu army was launched, the main direction of attack was also where these two city gates were located.

However, the Xiongnu bandits did not know that after confirming that the Xiongnu army would come back soon and that there would be no other reinforcements in Shule City, Geng Gong had already ordered people to completely block the gates of the two Shule cities. died.

If you want to break the gate of Shule City, which is filled with wood and stones, it is no different from breaking the rammed earth city wall that is nine meters high and four to five meters thick.

Although I heard that Shule City, which has only a few hundred people, dared to attack the camp of their Hun army at night, these Hun bandits who attacked again were already stubborn and mentally prepared for the big Han guards in Shule City.

However, after a whole day of siege today, the Hun army realized for the first time how stubborn the Shule city was as the leader of the Huns who retreated said...

Different from the previous simple cavalry siege, these Xiongnu reinforcements who were called back from the Central Plains and were forced to stop burning, killing and looting came back this time with some simple siege equipment.

After the tentative siege on the first day, from the second day onwards, the Xiongnu army sent all the siege weapons to the front line of the siege.

Li Di experienced the high-intensity and high-frequency archery that almost broke his fingers yesterday, and today he experienced a day when the tip of the spear was about to dance to sparks, and the blood of the Huns' enemies stained on the tip of the three-edged spear was all dried up. The stained walls hold fast.

Even with the soldiers of the Liyue Command brought by Emperor Li as reinforcements, today's Shule City suffered casualties for the first time.

Of course, compared to occupying the favorable location of the city, there is also the establishment of the formation of three wonders and the formation of eight gates. The soldiers of Liyue, who have been enhanced by Emperor Li's battle talent, are interspersed among the soldiers of Shule City to support them at any time.

In the past two days, the Xiongnu army that attacked Shule City also paid a heavy price.

The first day's tentative siege left nearly [-] corpses. Today, after throwing down nearly [-] Huns corpses again, they had no choice but to withdraw their troops willingly.

After that, the Xiongnu army once again stormed Shule City for five consecutive days, but they all failed.

After all, the Xiongnu army was a temporary organization recruited and gathered for profit, after days of siege battles.

Although the results of killing enemies in the attack on Shule City are also increasing day by day, representatives of many nomadic families still expressed their strength!

They don't want to continue to let the sons who they regard as the hope of the prosperity of the family go forward to die in such a senseless way.

Therefore, after seven consecutive days of strong siege, even though the leader of the Xiongnu army, King Zuoluli, sent soldiers to attack the city every day, they were constantly rotating nomadic families, but they still had to admit it.

If they wanted to attack the small broken city Shule City in front of them, they would have to pay a heavy price.

In order to prevent too few subordinates who went to the Central Plains to plunder, and to prevent these nomadic family forces summoned from being alienated, King Zuoluli, the leader of the Xiongnu, had to make a strategic change.

Without enough interests, the nomadic family men who were assembled came forward to attack the city regardless of the cost, but they couldn't let the restless Shule city go unnoticed.

The hundreds of thousands of rangers under him eat horses and chews, and they can't allow him to be dragged for a long time in this loess, high slope, and Gobi.

Therefore, after these seven days of siege, it was confirmed that it was impossible to attack Shule City in a short period of time and at a huge price.

King Zuoluli immediately ordered to block the only source of drinking water in Shule City, the mountain stream, forcing the stream to divert and cut off the water source in Shule City.

A small number of Huns were left behind, and they adopted an intermittent siege method with a tougher attitude than the first siege, reminding the big Han soldiers in the city in real time, don't try to go out of the city to make trouble, don't think that it can be the same as last time, can be successful night After attacking the second camp.

Nearly [-]% of the Xiongnu's army went away again with deafening hooves...

Although Shule City had cut off the only source of running water in the city because of King Zuoluli's order, the retreat of nearly [-]% of the Huns' cavalry army still eased the worries in the hearts of everyone in the city.

This time, the Xiongnu army, which was left behind by King Zuoluli to surround and attack Shule City, was as many as ten thousand people, according to Geng Gong.

And Geng Gong also took the opportunity to teach Li Di how to quickly confirm the number of enemies by observing with the naked eye.

Li Di was also clear about the allusion of Han Xin's ordering soldiers, but this understanding was just a story. If he really wanted to know the number of troops just like Han Xin's ordering soldiers, it was not a simple matter.

It is probably estimated that this kind of thing can happen to everyone.

However, if there is no systematic study and understanding of the skills of observing the number of troops, when faced with the spectacular scene of a huge crowd of people once there are more than [-] people, it is often either an overestimation or an underestimation.

In the previous life, Li Di's hometown held a fixed large-scale temple fair every year. Li Di once talked with his friends about the number of people participating in the temple fair that day, and how many people there might be.

Some people guess thousands, some guess tens of thousands, and some guess 10,000+!
But when the official temple fair participation data was released, Li Di and the others, even though they had expected that there would be many people going to the temple fair, none of them could guess an answer close to the official data.

The official number of participants in the temple fair is as high as 36...

Those who were left behind, surrounded and continuously attacked Shule City, and were excluded from the qualifications of candidates who went south to plunder the rich resources of the Central Plains, the remaining troops of the Xiongnu army are not stupid.

When King Zuoluli, the leader of the Xiongnu, led the army and left the field.

In the next few days, the daily siege and defense battles between Shule City and the remaining Hun army became mere formalities.

What form method?

Every morning, noon, and afternoon, three times a day, a group of hundreds of Huns riding horses galloped to the foot of Shule City and shot an arrow into the city.

After that, without looking at the result of the arrow, he immediately rode his horse away from the arrow shooting range of Shule City.

In this way, the absurd siege battle, the [-]-strong army of the Huns who were left to surround Shule City, persisted for nearly a month.

Although the Xiongnu army was not serious about attacking the city, Geng Gong, Li Di and others in Shule City, as the passive defenders, had to pay attention.

Even though everyone knew very well that the thousands of Huns outside the city would not dare and would not attack the city aggressively, but such emotions and attitudes as negligence are absolutely unacceptable.

Even if the daily siege of the Xiongnu army is too perfunctory, too child's play!
As a conscientious Han frontier general, Geng Gong still arranges manpower every day to go up the city wall to defend the city in turn.

After all, the Xiongnu, even if they were perfunctory to King Zuoluli, would shoot a few arrows every day to remind the big Han frontier guards in the city, be honest and don't make trouble...

How could Geng Gong, who was a general of the great Han Dynasty, tolerate these Xiongnu troops, who would push their noses and faces like this every day?
No matter how small the number of troops in Shule City is, they must express their attitude.

Don't look at how many Hun rangers you have, but as long as you dare to attack my city of Shule, there will be more or less Hun corpses left behind!
And taking advantage of King Zuoluli leading the Xiongnu cavalry army to leave, and the Xiongnu attacking the city in the past few days was perfunctory and absurd, Geng Gong in Shule City also seized the time and completed the initial militia training for the strong men in the city.

In addition, the Xiongnu rangers outside the city cooperated with each other every day, riding and shooting at fixed points and timing to attack the city, and the people in the city who had completed the militia training also quickly completed the excessive transition from new recruits to veterans on the battlefield.

Although the daily riding and shooting of the Xiongnu cavalry is too perfunctory, but no matter how perfunctory, it is still an act of siege.

Especially the Xiongnu cavalry, the daily siege cavalry and shooting troops are scarce, and the result is that the arrows are scattered.

Isn't this just right, these city folks who have just completed their militia training are an excellent partner to experience battlefield attacks...

How long does it take to learn everyday Chinese from scratch?
three months?half a year?Still a year?
Li Di said that with the education skills up to tenth level in hand, the transfer leaders he brought into the trial secret realm only took one and a half months to complete the initial popularization of Chinese language!

After being nurtured in a good language environment, there is always the threat of the Huns’ enemies outside, and the full-time teaching Mr. Xiucai, as well as the battle talent of Li Di, the war lord, support the acceleration.

It only took one and a half months for Liyueling's changed job leaders to complete the popularization of Chinese theories in daily life, which is nothing.

Moreover, there is another advantage after learning Chinese, that is, the easier it is to learn, and the faster it is to learn...
