Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 319 Meng Tian Distressed
"Please Shan Yu to avenge my poor daughter?"

This time it was Hu Lanba, the leader of the left of the Huns, who stood up this time. Seeing that everything had been properly arranged, he stood up and asked Shan Yu to make the decision for him.

To be honest, he doesn't care much about this daughter, the only thing he cares about is how much benefit this daughter can bring him.

Previously, the greatest use of his daughter was to be able to catch up with the crown prince. Once the crown prince succeeds to the throne in the future, his position will become more and more consolidated.

However, although his daughter was humiliated inhumanely this time, she survived after all, which is much better than the more than 2 dead souls.

And most importantly, his daughter made great contributions in this matter.

He stood up this time, saying that he was asking Shan Yu to avenge his daughter, rather than asking Shan Yu for credit, so he chose a more appropriate time to stand up after all the major events were arranged.

Seeing Zuo Dawanghu standing up, Mo Dun looked at him with even more disgust.

After all, everyone just forgot what happened to Lan Shuliu, and they also forgot to read their own jokes.

As soon as Shanyu appointed others to return to the grassland, you came out and said this, isn't it clearly to let them not forget their shame.

Sure enough, after Zuo Dahu finished speaking, some eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling couldn't help but glanced at Maodun.

At this point, Mao Dun could only clenched his fists tightly and lowered his proud head.

"Shu Liu's meritorious service, I will keep it in my heart, no matter what, he is Ben Shanyu's daughter-in-law, and he will be the crown prince and concubine in the future."

Looking at the Zuo Dawang who came out, Touman agreed.

Touman's words were already obvious, not only did it show that the marriage between Lan Shuliu and Mo Dun would not be annulled because she was defiled by Qin Jun, but also directly promised her status as the crown prince and concubine.

What is the crown prince and concubine? It means that as long as the crown prince succeeds Shan Yu, his daughter will be the Da Yan clan of the Huns.

Hearing Touman's promise, Zuo Datanghu retreated contentedly.

The Donghu in the eastern part of the Xiongnu relied on the Lan family to resist in the eastern border. As the main target of wooing, Touman naturally didn't mind promising some benefits to the Zuo Dahu.

As for the face of his son Mao Dun, it was out of his consideration.

……

General You saw his two sons in Shan Yu's king's tent that day. After vowing to keep the Huns' royal court a secret, he brought 5000 troops from his headquarters back to help the royal court early the next morning.

Touman understood that although he forced everyone to keep tight-lipped about the matter, the paper could not contain the fire after all, and one day the news would be known to the soldiers of the royal court.

At that time, even if he, Touman, was absolutely unwilling, he could only be forced to return to the grassland.

In the early morning of the second day, Touman commanded the cavalry of the Xiongnu from various clans and started a frenzied attack on Jiuyuan City.

With the "advanced" siege equipment, the pressure on Jiuyuan City immediately became greater.

And Mao Dun seemed to have vented all his resentment on the Jiuyuan City.

He asked Touman for the job of supervising the army, and any Huns who dared to retreat would be killed without mercy.

This time, under the strong attack of the Huns regardless of casualties, the Huns finally boarded the wall of Jiuyuan City for the first time.

Although Meng Tian immediately organized manpower to drive him down, this achievement did greatly boost the morale of the Huns.

With the first time, there will be the second time. Conquering Jiuyuan City is no longer so unattainable.

The Xiongnu's siege methods have always been very clumsy, and they even made a joke about using giant trees as ladders.

Meng Tian was also somewhat indifferent to the Huns.

This allowed the Huns to climb to the top of the city in the first siege without casualties.

Realizing his negligence, Meng Tian went to the city wall and personally commanded the soldiers to drive the Huns down.

However, at this moment, Touman, who had been watching the battle below, also noticed an abnormality on the top of the city.

After a general of the Qin army appeared on the city wall that I had finally conquered, I immediately couldn't understand the formation of the Qin army, and the Hun warriors who climbed up also drove down again.

This must be one of the important generals of the Qin army.

Extend your right hand sideways.

"bow come"

Immediately, a personal guard delivered a longbow half a man's height to Touman's hand.

Touman took his longbow, and touched the bow affectionately a few times.

"Old brother, you haven't been on the battlefield for many years, are you already hungry and thirsty?"

Gently pulling the bowstring, the longbow unexpectedly made a sound similar to the clanging of gold and iron.

This bow and arrow is not only bigger than ordinary bows and arrows, even the material seems to have a metallic color.

Since the unification of the grasslands, Touman can't remember how many years he didn't use this bow and arrow.

Picking up the bow and arrow again at this moment, it seems that he has also become younger, and has returned to the era of fighting for hegemony on the grassland.

At this moment, there was already a personal guard at the side holding a refined spiked arrow.

After trying the bow and arrow, Touman took the feather arrow without hesitation, and pulled away the strong bow that had been with him for half his life with a frown.

Even when Tou Manchan was young and strong with this bow and arrow, every time he shot two or three arrows in a row, his arm had to rest for a while before he could continue to draw the bow.

At this age, after exerting all the strength in my body, I am afraid that this is the only thing I can do.

The sound of an arrow leaving the string and even the air rubbing against it is so strong.

But Meng Tian, ​​who was commanding the soldiers on the city wall, did not notice a deadly arrow flying towards him at all.

However, a soldier beside Meng Tian found the arrow flying towards his commander the moment he turned around.

How powerful is the bow and arrow that Touman Shanyu shot out with all his strength.

There was no time to sound a reminder.

With a stride, he rushed to the front of Meng Tian, ​​and bumped towards Meng Tian abruptly.

"General be careful!"

It wasn't until Meng Tian was knocked away that the sound of these four words reached Meng Tian's ears.

At this time, Meng Tian looked back again, and found that the place where he was standing had been replaced by an ordinary Qin soldier, and a feathered arrow was stuck in his chest.

Injected from his chest, directly piercing his body.

Only a tuft of feathers remained on his chest.

It is conceivable that if the soldier hadn't pushed him away just now, it must be Meng Tian who was shot through by the bow and arrow at this moment.

"Protect the general!" A burst of urgent shouts, a group of soldiers quickly guarded Meng Tian's body with shields in their hands, protecting Meng Tian layer by layer.

Touman, who shot the arrow from afar, shook his head regretfully.

If he knew that the person he almost shot to death was Meng Tian, ​​the current commander of Jiuyuan City, it would not be as simple as a pity.

If Meng Tian died here, the leaderless Qin army might not last long.

Meng Tian stepped forward to support the soldier who had taken an arrow for himself.

The arrow pierced through the chest, and Meng Tian, ​​who was born in a military family, could tell at a glance that the arrow hit the soldier's heart, and there was no possibility of saving it.

But at this moment when the soldier saw Meng Tian who was rushing over to help him, there was a little smile on his face.

Seeing this smiling face, Meng Tian suddenly felt a little familiar, lingering in his heart.

Meng Tian racked his brains to search in his mind, when did he see this soldier.

Finally he remembered.

"—Are you a bark?"
