Take the city to the Warring States

Chapter 91
Several Xiongnu soldiers in the food hoarding place looked at the sky, yawned listlessly, and immediately chattered endlessly.

"Have you heard that the Donghu people raided a large tribe in the south of my country, and they were defeated. Now the governor has sent troops to rescue, and it is said that this battle will be won. I am sorry that I am waiting under Lord Hou, but I can't think of such a good thing."

"Your news has been confirmed a long time ago, let me tell you. A few days ago, the governor had already set off with the army, and there are only our Lord Marquis' subordinates guarding here."

"Why do you say that it is good for them to go, and it is not good for us to go."

"Isn't it because Hou Ye was unwilling to be squeezed out by others, so it hurt us."

While several Hun soldiers were chatting, a group of people came over.The leader frowned slightly, and the Xiongnu soldiers looked along the footsteps, and then shivered: "See Daqiequ".

"Guarding the food and grass is half-hearted, dragging it down and being punished with thirty lashes."Daqiu yelled at them and punished them immediately.

Several Xiongnu soldiers hurriedly fell to their knees and begged for mercy: "Da Qie, I realized that I was wrong, so I ask Da Qie to forgive me."

There was no response, but dozens of Xiongnu soldiers were ushered in, dragging a few soldiers in front without any explanation, and whipping them down fiercely.

"Recklessly talking about Lord Hou, this is the end."Daqiu pointed at the soldiers who were beaten, and looked around to warn the soldiers around him.

Seeing the strength of the whip being swung, all the soldiers suddenly shook their heads, and the surroundings became silent for a moment.At this moment, the voice of warning was loud, and a trace of ominousness emerged in my heart.

The Tanma came galloping fast, and before the people arrived, there was a hurried voice: "Qi Daqiu, there is an army under the banner of Donghu galloping."

"How many soldiers and horses they have".Daqie was startled and asked quickly.The place where the food is stored is secret, how do they Donghu people know.

Tanma shook his head: "It's boundless, I can't see how many soldiers and horses there are."

"Assemble the army and rush to the city wall to guard, and at the same time ask the Marquis for help."Daqiu didn't have time to think about it, so he immediately gave the order.

"Follow orders".A group of generals hurriedly bowed to accept their orders, turned around and walked forward one after another.After a long time, the long trumpet sounded, and countless Hun soldiers went to the city wall to stand in battle.

At the same time, a cavalry quickly ran towards the direction where the tribe was stationed.

A large number of Donghu cavalry rushed in like a tide, and countless Donghu soldiers set up ladders to climb up the city wall, and arrows slanted down from above to bring out blossoming blood flowers.After the two armies fought for a while, the sound of Mingjin came from behind Donghu's army.When Donghu soldiers heard this, they quickly retreated.

Da Qiequ led the Hun generals to stand on the city wall and look down, showing a look of surprise.After countless Donghu soldiers withdrew, they set up camp on the spot, as if turning a blind eye to the Huns behind the city wall.

All the generals of the Xiongnu were furious at once, and turned their eyes to Dajiu and bowed to beg for orders: "The Donghu people are rampant, please let Dajiu allow us to attack."

"East Hu is very powerful, provocative with such a naive move, we don't need to pay attention to it."Da Qie still had a trace of reason, and he comforted the generals.

The generals saw the big and he didn't allow it, so they could only forcefully suppress the anger in their hearts.At this moment, a few strong men walked out of the Donghu camp, pouring dung in the direction of the Huns, and the sound of cursing filled the sky.

"As the saying goes, being famous is not as good as being seen. Everyone says that the Huns are brave, but now they seem so cowardly."

"It's more than cowardly, it's as cowardly as a mouse. We have put the camp under their noses, and they only dare to be that shrinking turtle."

"If you on the opposite side want to survive, you may be able to save your life by surrendering quickly while the uncle is in a good mood at this time."

Listening to these scolding voices and looking at the dung underground on the city wall, the Hun generals couldn't bear it any longer, Qiqi looked at Daqiu: "The last general is willing to send troops to attack these hateful Donghu people."

"Zhun, Er, etc., remember to retreat as soon as you get a blow, and don't fight for a long time."Daqiu knew that there was no way to stop him, so he immediately agreed.

The trumpets sounded, and the gates of the city walls flew open.Five Hun cavalry phalanxes of thousands of people rushed forward with anger.

Seeing that the Huns cavalry dared to rush out, the Donghu soldiers who broke open and cursed immediately ran back, fearing that they would be caught and eaten alive by the Huns.

The Xiongnu cavalry was getting closer and closer, and the general riding in the front slapped his horse back fiercely, and the entire cavalry phalanx sped up a little again.He slammed into the camp fiercely, but the expected Donghu cavalry did not appear, and the whole camp seemed empty.A Hun soldier was slightly taken aback.

At this dazed moment, countless arrows shot into the camp with flames, and the camp instantly turned into a sea of ​​flames.The thick smoke was billowing, making people unable to open their eyes.Countless Xiongnu soldiers fell in a pool of blood, and the general who led the army turned pale with fright and shouted: "Withdraw!"

Surrounded by smoldering fire, and suddenly heard the words to retreat, the Xiongnu cavalry suddenly ran around like headless chickens, and countless people trampled on each other.

The Xiongnu Daqiequ saw it clearly on the city wall, and angrily shouted at the two generals behind him: "Hurry up and send troops to respond."

"Follow orders".The two generals did not dare to be negligent, and quickly took orders to run down the city wall.He roared away with two phalanxes of thousands of cavalry.

The flames gradually became smaller, and the Donghu cavalry came like a mountain, and a Hun cavalry fell to the ground in an instant before they had time to react.Seeing that these Hun cavalry were about to be defeated, the sound of horseshoes came from the rear, and two phalanxes of Hun cavalry galloped forward, followed by an anxious voice: "Quick retreat".

A Hun soldier woke up like a dream, and retreated behind under the cover of two cavalry phalanxes.

When the Donghu cavalry was on the rise, Zhou Yafu showed a smile behind him.Looking at the generals on both sides, he immediately ordered: "Stop chasing and killing, just surround this place."

"promise".The soldiers took the order and ran forward quickly, and the Donghu cavalry stopped in an instant.

A group of generals heard that they were in a hurry. This is a great opportunity to seize the land where the grain is stored, so why did they stagnate.So they all discouraged.

"General, our army can take this place in one go at this time, why did we order to stop the attack?"

"Such a good situation is not easy to come by, please think twice, general."

"General...".

Listening to these remarks, Zhou Yafu shook his head slightly.If the land where the Xiongnu hoarded food was taken, how would the large tribes in the west take it: "This place is bait, and it is still very useful at this time, and you can just follow the order."

"promise".All the generals took orders in a hurry, lest Zhou Yafu would be noisy.

Zhou Yafu nodded in satisfaction, and then turned his gaze to the west: "Leave the order to leave [-] soldiers and horses stationed here, and the rest of the soldiers and horses will attack the large western tribes."

"promise".A group of generals took orders to slap their horses quickly, and then the army was divided into two.One surrounded the place, and the other rushed to the west.
