Although Yunzhong City has only held on these days, it does not mean that they have no intention of defeating the enemy. It is just that the enemy is too strong so they will only defend and not attack. But they still let the soldiers at the top of the city pay close attention Every move of the enemy below is just because they believe that there will always be opportunities to come.Although the surprise attack out of the city that night ended in failure, Han Xin was not discouraged. He quickly recovered after regretting at that time, because Han Xin knew that there is no general who is always victorious and invincible, only those who stand up from failure Talent is the winner in the future.The only difference is that Han Xin went to the top of the city three times a day in the morning, noon, and night to observe the actions of the Huns, and when the Huns attacked the city, he stayed at the top of the city to command.Leading by example, those Qin soldiers who had lost confidence in him once again felt trust in him.

At daybreak, Han Xin climbed to the top of the city again. When he saw the soldiers who had been guarding the city all night, he asked, "Did the Huns outside the city make any changes this night?" He would ask this question every day, so the soldiers We are already very familiar with this, but the answer to him is still no.Han Xin nodded, didn't say anything, just walked around the city, and then looked down.

The Huns under the city were the same as yesterday, neither the position of the camp nor the arrangement of the troops had changed in the slightest.At this time, the Huns had just woken up from their sleep, and each of them stood up and moved their bodies. When they saw the Qin people on the city watching them, some people took bows and arrows and shot upwards, although they couldn't reach them because of the distance. , but it also provoked cheers from others.

Seeing this, Han Xin just smiled disdainfully and was about to leave. Suddenly, from the corner of his eyes, he caught a glimpse of a group of troops moving westward at the end of the Huns' camp.A guess quickly formed in Han Xin's mind when he saw the movement of this army: "It seems that the Huns finally couldn't hold on anymore, or there was something wrong with their logistics support, and they wanted to come from other cities. I have to tell the other generals about this news immediately." Thinking about it, Han Xin walked down quickly.

After hearing Han Xin's words, Zhou Xing and the others pondered for a while, and finally Long Qie said first: "I think it is more likely that the actions of the Xiongnu army that General Han saw were the latter. If they insist on If you don’t want to go down and want to retreat, you should slowly move away from Yunzhong City step by step, instead of just moving the furthest away.”

Zhou Xing also nodded in agreement: "If they want to retreat, they won't be so blatant. Aren't they afraid that we will pursue them with all our strength? So I also think that they will send a group of troops to the west because of the lack of supplies such as food and supplies. go."

Several other people also felt that this was the case, and at the same time they naturally thought that the target of the Huns was Jiuyuan, which was not too far away from Yunzhong.There was a hint of worry on the faces of several people, and Guo Quanzhong said first: "The defenders in Jiuyuan are not enough to compete with the Huns army. If they get food, grass and supplies, the morale of these Huns will definitely increase greatly. There is not much food and grass left, I'm afraid it will be very bad for us when the time comes."

"It's a pity that even if all the Huns went to other places, there are still more enemies outside the city than we do. We can't send people to rescue them. Moreover, the Huns will attack us again at any time. We really don't allow us to slack off. Zhou Xing sighed.

Meng Yi has been very quiet these days. Because of his momentary mistake, more than 2 people died, and the loss of Beidi County was a big blow to him, but now everyone has lost their minds. He could only open his mouth and said: "General Zhou, isn't there a communication station set up by the emperor's order in this cloud? You can use the carrier pigeon to send a message to the surrounding cities. Maybe the reinforcements from the imperial court will arrive before the Huns break through the Nine Plains." Get there."

It was only then that Zhou Xing remembered that the carrier pigeons in his city were not only used to receive messages, they could also deliver messages to other cities, and he clapped his hands and said, "Wake up the dreamer with a single word, I never thought I could use these things. I immediately sent a message to Jiuyuan and other cities, hoping that they will take precautions, and also hope that the reinforcements from the imperial court can arrive in time." As a way of sending messages that did not exist in this era, Zhou Xing and others are still Fa Ji. up it.

After a while, carrier pigeons took off from the clouds and flew to the surrounding cities with the news that the Huns were about to invade Jiuyuan.When the Huns outside the city saw these carrier pigeons flying in the sky, they had no idea that this would be a way for the Qin people to deliver news, and they just watched them go away.

Thinking of his plan being thwarted by Modun, and he sent him to attack Najiuyuan to raise food and grass for others, Gu Ke felt dissatisfied in his heart, but there was nothing he could do, so he scolded Modun all the way, Curse him to die.Anyway, all the people around him now are members of the Diela tribe, so there is no need to hide anything.

Seeing that his leader was so angry, all the clansmen felt the same, and some people echoed Gu Ke and scolded Maodun, saying that he would only show off his power on the grassland, and that he would lose his rules when he saw the Qin people.With the support of his clansmen, Gu Ke felt a little better. At this moment, he found that the clansman whom he had always trusted had never spoken to him. This made him very unhappy, so he questioned him: " Contemptuously, do you think that Modun is right to treat our Diela people like this?"

Gu Ke asked such a question, causing all the clansmen to look at Mi Qi, and Mi Qi walked out of his thoughts after being stared at by those hostile eyes, and hurriedly said: "Headman Gu Ke, I am I was thinking that this attack is actually a very good opportunity for our Diela Department, why doesn’t the leader seize this opportunity and become Shan Yu on the grassland? That’s why I didn’t hear what the leader said.”

Hearing this, all eyes were on Mi Qi, but the meaning changed from hostility to desire.Just because everyone knows that if it is true what Mii Qi said, then the Diela clan will turn around completely. Think about the life of Modun's own clan. The most abundant grassland on the grassland will always be theirs. They have the most cattle and sheep, and they can also get offerings from other small tribes, which is too tempting for them.Even Gu Ke showed a greedy look, and asked, "What do you say, what chance do we have for replacing Modu?"

Li Qi licked his lips and said: "Now the warriors of all tribes on our grassland are under the city of Yunzhong, and the Qin people will definitely send reinforcements to rescue them, and there will be a big battle between the two sides at that time. Whether we can win or not , the loss must be huge. But our Diela tribe was sent to attack Jiuyuan because of this order from Maodun, so that we can avoid this big battle and preserve our own strength. In the future, other people on the grassland The tribes are unable to compete with us because of the repeated battles with the Qin people."

"What do you mean...?" Gu Ke asked with some embarrassment, he didn't dare to say the following words.

Contemptuously smiled and said: "That's right, after we took down Jiuyuan, we didn't go back to the cloud to be angry, but went straight back to the grassland. If we fight for power, we will be able to replace Modun and his tribe, and you, the leader, will be the new Shanyu on my grassland."

Gu Ke's face turned red because of excitement, but then he shook his head and said: "But this time our grassland is short of food due to civil strife, if we can't take down several cities in Qin State, I'm afraid we won't be able to survive this year. "

"No, leader, if there are still so many tribes and so many people, the grassland will certainly not be able to support it, but after this battle with the Qin people, I am sure that there will be a lot fewer people on the grassland. And we can also start from nine The original robbed a lot of grain, and our Diela clan will not suffer any losses. As for other tribes, we can use these grains to bribe them, thus snatching the Chanyu position of Modun. "Mie Qi said.

After thinking about it carefully, Gu Ke felt that this was indeed a great opportunity to strengthen his own tribe, so he immediately threw aside the anger just now, and laughed triumphantly: "Modun, ah, I didn't expect that you sent me out but Such consequences, hahahaha!" The other clansmen also laughed heartily, as if everything had happened as they thought.

After driving a long way, the 2 people from the Diela tribe finally arrived at Jiuyuan City.Because I thought in my heart that after taking down the city, I can plunder the food, grass and property in it, and then return to the grassland to become the first tribe on the grassland, so all the people are not tired at all, and they don't need to take any rest. attack.

Gu Ke also wanted to achieve success as soon as possible, and under the urging of everyone, he didn't want to wait any longer, so he gave the order for the whole army to attack the city.With an order, all the warriors of the Diela tribe shouted loudly, and rushed towards Jiuyuan's not very tall city wall with all their strength as fast as possible, as if they wanted to knock down the city wall with their strong bodies .Without the command of the day shift, the attack of these Huns has returned to the original random attack.

Before these Huns rushed to the front of the city wall, countless crossbowmen appeared from the top of the wall, and the arrows flashing coldly pointed at the Huns who were striding forward.As a general shouted "Shoot!" Thousands of arrows fell like raindrops.The Huns never thought that the Qin people on the wall would have been waiting in full force for a long time, and they were caught off guard by being killed for a while, and the hundreds of people who rushed to the front were all shot down from their horses.But the battle had just begun. Just as the Huns were shouting and preparing to attack again, the gates of the city suddenly opened wide, and teams of troops came out of Jiuyuan City, the number far exceeding [-].
