The first general of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 217
"Boss! What are we doing here? The Xianbei people are rampant in our homeland, and the Han people are blocking our way with high walls. Yes, they are indeed very powerful, but our Wuhuan is even more powerful. Dare to ask the leader to let us go!" I will fight!"

The one who spoke was called Xiuda, and he could be regarded as a fierce general among the Wuhuan people. Even if he said something, he had to pay attention to it.

In fact, there was a commotion in Wuhuan's tent at this time, and since he retreated to Shanggu, such things have been going on every day, even if Tadun is the leader of Wuhuan, it is a big problem at this time.

After all, because of this retreat, Tadun's prestige among the Wuhuan tribe has dropped a lot.

But Ta Dun also knew that if he didn't retreat, once he was attacked from both sides, then things would not be so simple.

It's a pity that there is everything, but there is no one to attack. As time goes by, the complaints in the Wuhuan army will grow. After more than ten days, many Wuhuan soldiers have complained about staying in Shanggu like this.

Especially when Wei Tao galloped behind Wuhuan before, the seeds of dissatisfaction had already been planted in the hearts of these soldiers, and now they all exploded.

Even Tadun can be regarded as Wuhuan's generation of talents, facing such a situation, he has nothing to do but try to appease him as much as possible.

And amid such restlessness, when the news of the arrival of a large grain convoy arrived, it immediately cheered up the entire Wuhuan army.

Although the Youzhou army was persuaded, it was not easy to prepare food for this trip, so this plan was not officially used until now.

And in order to successfully lure Wuhuan, five thousand soldiers were sent to transport the grain and grass this time, which was enough to tempt Wuhuan.

In fact, it was the same. Although Ta Dun felt a little doubtful in his heart, but thinking about the food and the fact that the Youzhou army spent a lot of it every day, this doubt was dispelled.

Ta Dun wanted to use this to boost the morale of the army again, so after sending out scouts to make sure there was no ambush, he immediately summoned all Wuhuan's generals.

"Now the Han army can no longer hold on. Their food and grass have been exhausted, so they have sent food from thousands of miles away. If we can plunder this batch of food, then we can trap all the Han troops in Jicheng today." die!"

Ta Dun is indeed a rare talent in Wuhuan, at least in his mouth, he said that all his previous actions were for the current plan, and people would agree with it as soon as they heard it.

"There is a saying in the Han people: Retreat is the way to advance. If we hadn't retreated, they wouldn't have delivered food and grass with such fanfare. It is because of our actions that the Han people are like this!"

It has to be said that what Ta Dun said seemed to make sense, at least many Wuhuan generals believed what Ta Dun said.

As for the others, although they were a little strange, but this time they were attacking the Han army, they also had no objections when they thought of this.

In this way, Tadun quickly unified the opinions of the army, and at the same time restored his reputation through this incident. As long as he can seize food and grass, Tadun's position will be stable.

And even so, Ta Dun didn't forget that he ordered people to guard Shanggu, and he still stationed more than half of his troops in Shanggu, and ordered that he should not leave his post easily.

The news spread quickly. At this time, Wei Tao had personally led the army and quietly approached Shanggu, but after watching his guard, he couldn't help but secretly admired it.

"It's really enough to be cautious."

After getting the news, Wei Tao couldn't help but shook his head slightly, but then a hint of color appeared on his face.

"It's a pity that these barbarians, apart from being able to go on a rampage and win by brute force, how can they understand my subtle and subtle military skills? Gongda and Ziyu's plan is sure to work!"

At this time, Ta Dun had just led the people away, and if he attacked Shanggu by force at this time, he would definitely be surrounded, so Wei Tao still ordered everyone to stand by and rest.

It was not until half an hour later that Wei Tao rearranged his army again. At the same time, he really understood that Ta Dun had indeed fallen into a trick to lure the enemy, so he led the army away.

"Where is Zhang Liao?"

Wei Tao stared at Shanggu in the distance, his expression froze slightly, and he drank suddenly.

"The end is here!"

Zhang Liao responded immediately, but Wei Tao didn't even look at him, he pointed at Shanggu and said sharply.

"I ordered you to lead 1000 people from the headquarters to attack Shanggu. You may lose but not win. You can do it?"

"promise!"

Zhang Liao didn't make any excuses at all, he immediately obeyed his orders, and then led the army to fight until Shanggu, and suddenly shouted to make people come to fight.

"A certain Zhang Wenyuan is here, who dares to come and fight with me, the Wuhuan dog thief?"

"Haha...there are still Han soldiers willing to come to challenge?"

Logically speaking, Wuhuan could use Shanggu to defend against the Han army's intrusion, but unfortunately Zhang Liao is only leading a thousand people here now, compared to Wuhuan stationed in Shanggu, the number is too small, so Wuhuan also Disdain to occupy the advantage of city defense, just lead the way out.

In this charge, more than 5000 Wuhuan cavalry rushed out, but the Wuhuan tribe also established themselves with meritorious service. The more meritorious service they made, the more things they could get after the war.

These soldiers who stayed in Shanggu originally thought that they must have done nothing this time, but now that they saw Zhang Liao coming, they thought that Zhang Liao was here to give credit, so they naturally rushed out.

"Wuhuan people are as cowardly as mice. They only dare to bully the few with the more. Let's retreat!"

Naturally, Zhang Liao would not spend his soldiers in this place, so he immediately ordered his men to retreat.

When Zhang Liao withdrew like this, those Wuhuan soldiers were naturally extremely unwilling. You must know that in the eyes of the Wuhuan people, this is credit and wealth, so they naturally pursued desperately.

They were all cavalry, and soon everyone including Zhang Liao disappeared.

"Wenyuan has already succeeded. Zilong, you are going to make the people in the headquarters go to challenge again!"

Wei Tao watched Zhang Liao lead Wuhuan Bing away from afar, and couldn't help showing a smile on his face. After nodding slightly, he turned his head to look at Zhao Yun and said.

"promise!"

As soon as Zhao Yun clasped his fist, he immediately accepted the promise, and also led the challenge.

This time, four thousand Wuhuan were lured out of the city.

Then Pan Zhang and Yu Jin also led the troops forward, but several times in a row, no matter how stupid a person would feel something was wrong, but after going back and forth several times, there were not many Wuhuan soldiers in the upper valley.

"Gentlemen! The Wuhuan cavalry disturbed the peace of our great man, and their crime is very serious! Today I lead the army to attack Shanggu, and I want to destroy it in one fell swoop, and burn their food and grass, so that they can also taste the feeling of being burned, killed and looted!"

Wei Tao pointed to where Shanggu Wuhuan was, and said in a stern voice.

"All armies, follow me to kill!"

As soon as the words fell, Wei Tao immediately rode out first, and went straight to the valley.

"Kill..."

Numerous soldiers followed and rushed to Shanggu together.

"Take the city ladder and attack the city!"

Following Wei Tao's order, countless city ladders were directly built on the city wall. Although Wei Tao prepared hastily, Shanggu was originally destroyed by Wuhuan, and Wuhuan had no intention of repairing it, so as long as the city ladders are put together It means that you can easily climb up the city wall, and because the city wall is not high, it is very easy to charge up.

Soon countless soldiers rushed to the top of the city, fighting with Wuhuan soldiers.

"Hehe... Originally, I was still a little bit worried. Five would attack it and ten would encircle it. Now the number of our army is only equal to that of Wuhuan. If we move to another place, we can defend this city at will. , but now that Wuhuan has been attacked in such a state of embarrassment, it’s difficult for Gongda and you all to think that you can easily defeat it by simply moving the tiger away from the mountain.”

Looking at the city wall, at first the Wuhuan people were able to shoot and kill their own soldiers with their strong bows and crossbows, but when the city ladder was erected and the soldiers rushed to kill them, those Wuhuan people could only draw their swords and fight with the soldiers. Fight each other.

Although he also took advantage of his condescension, Wei Tao could easily see that those Wuhuan were very unfamiliar with the city defense, and some Wuhuan soldiers even gave up the top of the city on their own initiative.

"My lord, this is not surprising. The advantage of the Wuhuan people is that they come and go like the wind in field battles, and they are invincible. In fact, not only Wuhuan, but also the Xianbei, Xiongnu, Qiang, etc. are all like this. How can you be experienced in defending the city? So although foreign races can be at ease for a while, they are often frustrated by my big man."

Xun You smiled slightly. Although the battle ahead was uncertain at this time, and there were casualties at every moment, both Wei Tao and Xun You were extremely calm. Under the command, more and more soldiers rushed to the top of the city.

But I have to say that the Wuhuan people are also quite brave. Although they are not good at defending the city, they dare to fight with the guards, so even if there are many people rushing to the top of the city, they can't take it for a while.

"At this time, I need brave and skilled fighters to open the situation for me!"

Wei Tao also knew that the strategy of diverting the tiger away from the mountain could not be delayed for too long, when Wuhuan returned to the army, there would be a situation where both inside and outside would join forces, so this battle had to be decided quickly.

Wei Tao thought about it for a while, then immediately turned his head to look at Dian Wei who was already eager to try behind him, and then smiled slightly.

"Dian Wei, I need your help this time, and you are leading the charge. I believe that with your bravery, you will be able to defeat the powerful enemy!"

"promise!"

Dian Wei just cupped his hands towards Wei Tao abruptly, and immediately carried two short halberds to kill on the city wall.

Despite Dian Wei's burly stature, his movements were really nimble. He went straight up to the city wall in just three or two strokes, and then with a wave of his halberds, all the Wuhuan soldiers who were about to come to kill him were immediately thrown away. beheaded.

"Soldiers! Come in with me, Dian Wei!"

After boarding the tower, Dian Wei let out a loud shout immediately, and then saw him swinging the double halberds in his hands again and again, each blow would definitely kill one person, and within a quarter of an hour, dozens of Wuhuan soldiers died In Dian Wei's hands, blood flowed all over the ground.

Seeing that Dian Wei was so brave, he was a Wuhuan warrior, so he couldn't help being afraid at this moment and dared not compete with Dian Wei again.
