Qiang Qin

Updated: 2011-02-27

The Yueshi soldiers guarding the city never dreamed that they could kill the Huns so easily, but the Huns had nothing to do with themselves. Looking at the Huns cavalry who could only be beaten passively and had to retreat under the city, everyone felt in their hearts. Full of excitement.They couldn't help looking at the Qin army who was resting under the city. It was they who commanded themselves to complete these defensive fortifications, and taught themselves how to use the walls and trenches to fight against the Huns. At that time, they still felt that these things were tiring. , but now they know they are wrong, this is the most effective way to deal with the Huns.

Finding that the Yuezhi people above and below the city looked at him with adoring eyes, the faces of those Qin soldiers couldn't help but turn red. In their opinion, it was only a normal thing to arrange the city in this way. Cities that are about to encounter wars will do it, but they are treated like this by these people in Yueshi, which really makes them a little embarrassed.

"You Daqin warriors not only saved us from being killed by the Huns that day, but also came up with such a clever idea to help us defend the city. On behalf of the soldiers of my Yuezhi Kingdom, I would like to thank you very much. "Arieli came to the group of Daqin soldiers and thanked them again and again.The other Yuezhi people also performed their breast-stroking etiquette to those foreign warriors.

The soldiers of the Qin Army felt a little embarrassed, Wang Hua, one of Zidu's lieutenant generals, said, "I don't dare to do it, this is also the result of your Yuezhi soldiers working together, otherwise it is impossible to block the Huns' attack with such a little defense. "He cupped his hands again and again as he spoke, and then said in a solemn tone: "But everyone, don't be fooled by this small victory. Although we repelled the Huns today, they are still far superior in terms of military strength. The people here have passed us, and the number of Huns we killed today is only one or two thousand. The damage to the Huns army is not too great, so the Huns will definitely continue to attack, and there will be a bitter battle waiting for the time. Watch us, we must not relax. Moreover, the Huns have been able to succeed repeatedly on the border of our Great Qin, and they also have unique methods in attacking cities, but they did not expect that our Lanshi City would have such a defense. Tomorrow their offensive will surely Even more powerful."

The soldiers of the Yue Clan couldn't help but feel ashamed when they heard the words. They were indeed a little dazzled by the victory and thought they were safe. After Wang Hua's words, they realized that their situation had not changed, and the Huns They will come up with more powerful ways to attack the city.After they were ashamed, they developed further respect for the Qin army, because these Qin people were more sober than themselves, and they were more able to win without arrogance and without defeat.

At this time, Maodun outside the city was in a dilemma, because just now, a man from his own territory in the east came to his army on a galloping horse, and he brought a man who was enough to break the morale of the entire army. The news is that his Shanyu tent has been attacked by a Qin army of tens of thousands of people, and it is already in danger. Bai Ban begged him to lead his troops back to rescue.After hearing the news, Mao Dun already guessed that the army who provoked his anger and killed him from the west to Shan Yu's tent that day should not be the Yuezhi people he guessed, but the Qin people from the Central Plains. After all, he is not stupid.The purpose of the Qin people to do this is to attract their own army to the Yuezhi in the west, and then send troops to raid their fundamental land.Thinking about this point clearly, it is too cunning to scold the Central Plains people directly, but after scolding, he still has to decide what to do, whether to return to the teacher or go back after defeating the Lan's City.

Obviously, if they return to the division to rescue now, then the Yuezhi people in the city will not let go of this great opportunity, they will definitely go out of the city to pursue, when the time comes, their own army will only know to go back, and of course they will have no intention of fighting again. Then there will inevitably be heavy losses. By then, can this remnant soldier still be the opponent of those Qin troops?But if you force yourself to attack the city and ignore the battles in your own fundamental land, then maybe it will be captured by the Qin people soon, and the Huns cavalry here will become homeless.Both paths have their disadvantages, which makes Mao Dun a big headache. He has always been counseled by Ji Du in these decisions, and he has never hesitated, but this time he didn't even bring this military adviser with him. It's up to him to judge.

Mao Dun walked back and forth in the tent, the knife in his hand kept swinging, and the cavalry who saw the report was excited for a while, and he was afraid that Shan Yu would kill himself in a fit of anger.Suddenly Mao Dun stopped in his tracks, and with a decision, he turned to the man and said, "You are here to report this time, does anyone else in our army know the news?"

The man shook his head and said: "General Bai Ban said that this matter can only be told to one person, and after Shan Yu orders to return to the division, I dare not tell other people."

"That's good, that's good!" Mao Dun said and waved to the man, "Come here, I have something to tell you to bring to the shift, but you can't let other people know." The man looked at Mao Dun mysteriously. Just as if he had something important to say, he leaned forward.Unexpectedly, when his person was about a foot away from Maodun, he felt a chill in his heart, followed by a stabbing pain, and he fell to the ground with a scream before dying.He never thought that Mo Dun, who was a Shan Yu, would attack him suddenly, so his eyes were still full of doubts and unwillingness until he died.

This scream attracted the guards who were on guard outside the tent, they hurried into the tent, but saw Mao Dun draw his saber from the man.Seeing the strange expressions of the guards, he said: "This man is not one of us, but an assassin sent by the Yuezhi. Fortunately, I discovered his identity early, otherwise he would have succeeded."

Although the guards saw that the man had no other weapons on him, and he was obviously killed by Modu's surprise attack, since Shan Yu said so, they naturally believed it was true, and after Modu waved his hand, they carried the body to the Throw away outside.In the past two days, too many Huns have died here, and it doesn't matter if there is such a person.

Mao Dun did this because he had already made a decision, that is, to continue to attack the Lan's City, and then go back to deal with the Qin people after capturing it.It's not because he can't bear the anger of the Yue clan, but after careful consideration, if he returns to the teacher at this time, he has little chance of being able to deal with the Qin people, but if he wins after capturing the Lan clan city, Then in terms of morale, his cavalry will not be inferior to the Qin people, and maybe by then the Qin army's vigor will have been exhausted, and it may be settled by him in a single battle, so he decided to continue attacking the city, as if there was no Received this message.However, he was still afraid that other people in the army would know about the attack on Shanyu Dazhang. At that time, the whole army might lose the idea of ​​attacking the city again, so he had to send the only person who knew about it besides himself. people kill.

Since he had no way of retreat at this time, the only way was to attack the Lan's City by force, Mao Dun decided to besiege the city from all sides at all costs.Soon, the order was issued to everyone, telling them to attack Lan's City tomorrow with all their strength after a night's rest, and make sure to take it down.

Mao Dun's decision this time was very correct, because even if he brought troops back to rescue, it would be impossible to save the lives of those tribesmen who were on the grasslands of the Huns, because Zhang Han's army had already sent Baiban's troops to the rescue. Killed and defeated. ,

After learning that Mao Dun had led most of the cavalry far away from the Shanyu's tent, Zhang Han immediately led his troops to the Huns' Shanyu's tent.After the cavalry raid from the west, the Huns changed the focus of defense again, and began to focus on their west, while relaxing their defenses to the east.Although Bai Ban has repeatedly reminded them that they should not take it lightly, the Huns are still the same.

In this way, Zhang Han's army was able to break through the weakly defended eastern defenders at the fastest speed, and went straight to Shanyu's tent.Although he knew that the Shan Yu of the Huns might not be there at this time, as long as he took down the big tent that symbolized the highest status of the Huns, the blow to the Huns would be very big, and they should not have enough courage by then He fought desperately with the men and horses he led.

But when he entered the Huns' gathering place, he still encountered stubborn resistance. At this time, the Huns gave full play to their characteristics that all the people can be soldiers.Although many elite soldiers followed Modu, and only old people, children and women remained among those tribes, most of them could still mount their horses and bow their bows to fight with the Qin army.It's just that they are not battle-tested fighters after all, and their physical fitness cannot be compared with the troops led by Zhang Han, so they can only be constantly killed by the Qin army and retreat, and several Huns fell down along the way. corpse.

But it was useful for them to do so, that is, it gave Bai Ban more time, allowing him to mobilize all the troops and lay down the final line of defense before Shan Yu's tent.

At this time, both Bai Ban and Ji Du regretted the decision they had made before. If he hadn't thought of letting Maodun take the troops to attack the Yuezhi people in order to let Maodun continue to control the power of the Huns, then the Huns would not be so embarrassed. The ground was beaten by the Qin army and had to stick here.Of course, the cavalry who invaded from the west now knew their identities very well. They were just a trap set by the Qin people to divert their attention.

While regretting their mistakes, the two prepared all their troops to the east, and waited for the Qin army to fight them to the death. They believed that with the ability of the Huns on the grassland, although their troops were far away Far inferior to the opponent, but can still confront the enemy for a period of time.But for the sake of safety, Bai Ban still sent people to the west to ask for help from Maodun, hoping that he could bring his troops to deal with the Qin people with him as soon as possible.
