Chapter 55 Xianbei Attack ([-])

The sun sets in the west, which means the day's fighting is over.

The endless battlefield is like a hell on earth, the air is filled with the disgusting smell of blood, the smoke is floating in the air, and the blazing fire makes the sky red.

After the war, the soldiers' equipment and weapons were badly damaged, their swords were broken, their bows and arrows were broken, and their armor was full of arrow and knife marks.Some of the weapons had been dyed red and stained with the blood of the enemy.These weapons were once symbols of honor, but after the war, they became particularly tragic and painful.

After the war, there was not much rest time. The soldiers guarding the city had solemn expressions, their eyes full of sadness and exhaustion, silently picking up the bodies of their comrades and sorting out the traces of the war.

Some soldiers will kneel on the ground and pray silently for their fallen comrades, while other soldiers will silently pack up their weapons and equipment and prepare for the next battle.

The sounds of fighting gradually disappeared, replaced by the cries and wails of the wounded.These sounds make people feel extremely painful and sad, as if to remind people that war is so cruel and ruthless.

"Lord, the battle damage statistics have been calculated."

At this moment, Xi Zhicai's face did not have the elegance of a literati, but was replaced by the smoke of war.

"Say."

Liu Han had been standing on the top of the city roaring all day, and now he was sitting on the ground drinking water without any image, his voice was hoarse.

"The defenders suffered 16 casualties and 250 killed. The governor's reinforcements suffered 190 wounded and [-] two killed."

After hearing the casualty data, Liu Han remained silent. In just one day, he suffered nearly 2000 casualties, especially the defenders. They were not ordinary Han soldiers, but fully armed elites. There were 500 people in one day. of casualties.

"The post-war pension work must be done well. We cannot chill their hearts."

"Here."

"Zhicai, tell me, they are all heroes, right?"

"Yes."

Liu Han stood up again, looked at the tired soldiers, raised the bloody spear in his hand, and said: "My sons, have you seen it? The Xianbei people are not great. Today they were defeated. They were defeated so much that they couldn't even collect the corpses." Go back. Anyone who openly offends a strong man will be killed no matter how far away he is!"

"Whoever commits a strong man!"

Liu Han shouted hysterically at the Xianbei people outside the city.

The people who were cleaning the battlefield were slightly startled, and then suddenly shouted frantically to the outside of the city, "Even if they are far away, they will be killed!"

"Whoever commits a strong man!"

"Even if you are far away, you will be punished!"

~~
Both the people in the city and the Xianbei people outside the city heard this declaration that resounded in the sky.

As a native of Bingzhou, Lu Bu also shouted along for some reason. This was an experience he had never had in the Bingzhou military camp. Everyone in the army here had vitality on their faces.

Absolute elite!
He also thought about joining Liu Han's command, but the Zhenbei general never had any intention of recruiting him. Lu Bu had his own pride and would not allow himself to lower his price.

Lu Bu still had some admiration for this great Han prince. If he didn't just live in Luoyang and come to the border to defend against foreign enemies, his heart would be worthy of respect.

In the Xianbei camp, the day's fighting was over.

Tan Shihuai's face was gloomy. After a day of fighting, he was about to enter the city. Unexpectedly, he was destroyed by a fire. Not only his general Ke Zui was killed in it, but also the eighteen thousand warriors were not spared.

The battle report has come out. Counting the initial test today, 2 people were killed and [-] injured.Looking at the numbers on the battle report, Tan Shihuai was so angry that he was shaking all over, "Liu's son, if I don't kill you, it's hard to understand the hatred in my heart!"

Although Tan Shihuai said so, he knew in his heart that the principle of going strong and then failing again would be exhausted. Today's soaring fire not only burned the lives of soldiers and siege equipment, but also burned the Xianbei warriors. courage.

People on horseback are not suitable for attacking cities.

This bloody lesson made Tan Shihuai completely accept this fact.

The high morale on the opposite side of the city made Tan Shihuai very worried. In the past, when going south to plunder, he only had to drive the Han people outside the city into the city, and then take advantage of the gaps to rush in to grab food and beautiful women.

This year, there is nothing but empty houses.Suddenly, Tan Shihuai felt that he seemed to have fallen into the other party's trap.

"forage!"

This time when they went south to plunder, Tan Shihuai was still the same as last year. He only brought enough food for half a month. He had been going south for five days now. If the other party delayed it for another five days, it would be dangerous to go back.

What a ruthless calculation!
In order to capture the Yin Hall, [-] troops have been divided, [-] outside the Great Wall and [-] inside the Great Wall.

"Come on!"

Tan Shihuai felt vaguely uneasy in his heart.

"Queju was ordered to lead an army of 5000 troops to besiege Mayi. Tuoba Ang was ordered to lead an army of 3000 troops to attack Wangtao. Yu Wenshi was ordered to lead an army of [-] troops to attack Fanju (chóu). He ordered the northern section of the army to pretend to attack Pingcheng. The Rouran tribe took the opportunity to occupy the pass of the Great Wall. , ensuring the army’s retreat.”

"Here, Chanyu."

"The whole army will rest tomorrow and make siege tools. At the same time, we will feign an attack and fill the trenches with sandbags. When the siege tools are fully prepared, we can capture it in one fell swoop."

"Here."

"Tighten your guard tonight to prevent Han people from attacking the camp."

"Here."

During the day on the second day, the Yin Pavilion.

Although the Xianbei siege army advanced, they did not cross the trench. They just kept sending people to fill it with soil. Although they were within the range of archers, they were unable to cause effective damage.

"Zhicai, Tan Shihuai learned to be smart."

"Lord, this is normal. After yesterday's fire, the Xianbei barbarians will no longer despise us and will be more cautious."

"Let the stone cannon fire boulders to interfere. I want to finish filling the trench today, but I don't agree."

At this time, Lu Bu said: "General, why don't you let me lead the army to charge for a while."

In Lu Bu's eyes, none of these Xianbei people were his enemies. Coupled with yesterday's victory, he began to underestimate the enemy.

"No, as a war commander, on the premise of ensuring victory, you must be responsible for the lives of the soldiers."

"Here."

Lu Bu clasped his fists and stopped talking. In his mind, as long as he wins, is everything else important?
"Tomorrow will be the seventh day."

Liu Han looked to the north and said to himself, where Qiangyin is.

On this day, an extremely strange phenomenon occurred. The counties around the Yin Hall were all attacked by the Xianbei people. However, the Yin Hall, the center of the storm, was extremely calm at the moment.

At night, after Tan Shihuai received today's battle reports from all parties, he called a meeting with the generals.

Although there were not many battle losses, the results were not optimistic.

Each county town is heavily guarded and has extremely strong defenses, especially in Pingcheng, where the exit of the Great Wall has been sealed.

"Little wolf cub, you have such a big appetite!"

Now, Tan Shihuai's understanding of Liu Han has changed from a fox to a wolf cub, and Liu Han's danger level in his heart has been raised again.

"He wants to eat my 8 people!"

"what?"

The generals were shocked.
