Riding and chopping: Overlord of the Han and Hungarians

Chapter 150
Under Wangping City.

The same tense atmosphere filled everyone's hearts.

Neither the defenders.

Or the Huns.

It was the first time to attack the city, and Yi Zhixie and Yu Shan were not completely sure, so they could only rely on the tactics they had learned from the recruited Han people for reference.

It has been seven or eight days since the siege.

These days, the captive Han people are desperately filling with sand, and whenever they relax, they will confront each other with swords and soldiers.

Almost ten thousand Han people were taken captive, and the Huns basically robbed all the villages that could be robbed nearby, and if they wanted to rob, they would go to Wangping City.

It's not far from Xiangping over there.

Before taking down Wangping, the Huns did not dare to go deep, otherwise, even if they were able to run, they would suffer huge losses if they were attacked from inside and outside.

"Zuo Tuqi, I think it's time to try it today. Those Han people are also consuming food, so it's better to let them consume the arrows of the Han army!"

Inside the battalion commander, Zuogu Li Wang Yizhi spoke to Yu Shan in a low voice.

As Zuo Tuqi, the prince of the Xiongnu, and the candidate for the next Shanyu, Yi Zhixie clearly wanted to obey him, so he dared not make good claims.

Yu Dan listened, and nodded involuntarily. There are more than ten thousand Han people, and they are also consuming their food every day. Although the looted villages provided a lot of food, those were used to support the grassland warriors.

Yu Dan patted the table: "Okay! Come here, order the Han people to carry the soil and approach the city. Anyone who dares to resist! Kill!"

"Hahaha, yes!"

Yizhi grinned grimly and walked out of the battalion commander, selected more than a thousand grassland warriors, escorted and forced more than ten thousand Han people to move forward.

He personally led more than a thousand prairie warriors behind him, but he killed those who escaped with thunder.

Ordinary people have no room to resist. If they go forward, they will die, and if they retreat, they will die. The heavy despair weighs on all the captive Han people.

"The thieves are moving!"

"Clang clang clang!"

After a series of transmissions, the alarm sounded on the Wangping city wall, and the defenders got up from the resting city wall one after another, holding bows and crossbows and looking down vigilantly.

"West wall, the thieves will gather on the west wall!"

"All the ministries strictly abide by the positions of the ministries and do not move lightly, county lieutenant, add more soldiers to the west gate!"

"Ah, no!"

County Lieutenant Wangping, whose soul was about to fly, was so nervous that he could hardly speak. Fortunately, the soldiers around him knew how powerful they were, and after whispering a few words, they snatched the soldier talisman from the county lieutenant's hand and began to mobilize the defenders in the city.

Wangping City West.

More than ten thousand Han people rushed down the city with red eyes. If they go forward, they may still live, but if they retreat, they will undoubtedly die.

On the city wall, the generals of the defending army also discovered that it was a group of ordinary people who attacked the city wall, but no one let go of the crossbow in their hands. Life and death are at stake, and there is no mercy!

"Those who walk a hundred paces close to the city shoot arrows! Make no mistakes!"

"promise!"

"promise!"

"promise!"

"."

The messengers kept running back and forth on the city wall, and each team, each team, and each team agreed one after another.

They also don't care that the people under the city may be their relatives, friends, the military order has been issued, and they are all enemies in front of them.

"Ah!! Grandpa, Grandma! I don't want to die!"

Among the Han people in the city, a young man with hot tears streaming from his eyes rushed forward with a bag of sand on his back, hoping that the arrows that could take his life would be shot at others.

whoosh-

"Uh--!"

It's a pity that the gods didn't take care of him. When he was about [-] meters away from hitting the city wall, dozens of arrows headed towards him, and among the dozens of arrows, six hit him accurately.

Blood flowed down, and the young man's clenched fists were slowly loosened. Behind him, countless feet stepped on his body. He didn't feel anything, and his eyes were completely dark.

Yi Zhixie led more than a thousand prairie warriors hanging 700 meters away from the Han people, and [-] meters from the nearest city wall. This is a place where the defenders of the city wall will never be able to shoot. He watched with satisfaction as the city wall continued to pour down arrows.

He also listened to the miserable howls that sounded like fairy music in his ears.

If there were any Han people who were frightened and ran back, he would shoot arrows with a grinning grin, and shoot them to death like an example to others.

More than a thousand people are not many, but it is more than enough to stop the last Han people.

Under the towering city wall, bags filled with sand were thrown over and piled up to form a slope. Although the height of the slope is still not enough to threaten the soldiers on the wall, if the slope continues to pile up, there will always be When you can reach the city wall.

The frequency of the city wall defenders' shooting became faster and faster, because there was no need to aim at all, and the city was densely packed with people.

"Lieutenant! What should I do? Bows and crossbows alone can't deal with so many people. Do you want to let go of wood and rolling stones?"

A general asked, wiping the sweat off his brow.

The person known as the captain waved his hands decisively: "Fire oil! Lei Mu! Rolling stone!"

"put!"

"What about the crossbow on the bed, a certain prairie man who was aiming at that side, let me shoot a few arrows!!"

"Release the wood!"

"Put the Rolling Stones!"

"Fire oil ready!!"

"Prepare the bed crossbow!! Target Hun cavalry!"

The orderly broke his leg running on the city wall, panting heavily.

Rumbling.

The city is already a hell on earth, yellow, white and red.

With the fall of the rolling stones and wood, the hearts of the Han people were broken, but what was waiting for them was far from that. Pot after pot of heated and melted animal fat flowed from the city wall to the bottom. Lethality,

The howls and screams were all drowned out by the flames.

hum-

The hum that resounded across the battlefield.

A cow crossbow operated by dozens of people slammed an arrow at Yi Zhixie, and then the second arrow of the second one, a total of two cow crossbows on the west wall, shot out one after another at this moment.

It's a pity that the cattle crossbow lost its aim at a distance of 700 meters. One arrow was nailed tens of meters away from the Huns cavalry, while the other arrow passed a few meters above the heads of the Huns cavalry.

The sudden bull crossbow startled Yi Zhi, although the crossbow did not hit them, but such a long range still made him feel dangerous.

"withdraw!"

With a shout, Yizhi led more than a thousand prairie cavalry to retreat, and as soon as he retreated, the frightened Han people also cried and ran away from the city wall.

The people under the city wall scattered little by little, leaving only corpses on the ground and a few piles of sandbags piled up several meters high, several meters, and extremely dangerous, you must know that the city wall of Wangping City is also worth seven meters Height, if the Huns came here once, their horses would be able to step on the city wall. (p1)

Fortunately, the Huns retreated, and the trapped Han people also retreated. The defenders on the city wall were relieved. There are countless arrows.

After running away, the first thing Yi Zhixie did was gather up the fleeing Han people. They were so useful. Before he left, he had already seen the height of the piles under the city wall. As long as he did it again, it would be no problem to attack the city wall !

　I have consulted a lot of literature. If the ancient city walls are not fantasy, they are generally seven or eight meters high. Even the tallest Chenghai Tower, the old leader of Shanhaiguan, which is the first pass in the world, is only 14 meters.

　　The existing Xi'an Ming City Wall is only 12 meters high. Note that it is the Ming City Wall.

　　Therefore, with the manpower of the Western Han Dynasty, the height of the city wall is already the limit at eight meters, and this is the height of the city wall at the border. The Chang'an City of the Han Dynasty was even lower in the information I checked, only six meters. I once thought I was wrong.
