Sang Kun rode on a tall red horse, followed by his own lineage guards, and behind him was an army with no end in sight. Since the failure of the struggle for hegemony on the grassland, Sang Kun fled from the grassland like a lost dog, and along the way, he got rid of the pursuers sent by Xue Bin to chase and kill, fled from the east of the grassland to the ice field in the north of the frozen grassland, and then fled to the Western Regions because he couldn't stand the extreme weather of the ice field. Of the thousands of tribesmen who fled with him, less than 300 of them managed to reach the Western Regions with him, and almost all of them were covered with skin and bones.

What kind of person is Sang Kun, that is also the most powerful overlord in the grassland except for the Khan, and even among his clan, Sang Kun's status is much higher than that of the Khan. But now he is a destitute beggar, seeking the protection of the great powers in various parts of the Western Regions. I have to say that Sang Kun's luck is really good, in a war with other tribes, Sang Kun led his own people to kill the enemy bravely, he alone killed more than ten enemies with a knife, and he looked like a devil from hell all over his body. It was this battle that gave Sang Kun the title of "Blood Butcher" in the Western Regions, and some larger tribes began to come to recruit Sang Kun.

Sang Kun also knew that with the more than 200 clansmen around him, there would be no climate in the vast Western Regions, so under the generous gift of a city-state lord, Sang Kun led his people to join the power of this city-state lord. Later, Sang Kun learned that the lord of the city-state he took refuge in was the son of a powerful empire further west, and was assigned to this place because of the failure to compete for the throne with his brother, although he was a prince who failed to compete for the throne, but the strength was still relatively strong in this area, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the ruler of the empire here, with a strong army under his hands, and countless gold and silver treasures.

The lord failed to fight for the throne, but he still did not give up, but it was a pity that his strength was not comparable to the power of his brother who became the emperor, so he could only shrink here to be a powerful lord. After Sang Kun learned of his master's strong strength and identity, he wanted to return to the grassland, after all, the grassland was his home.

Sang Kun began to boast to his master about the richness and beauty of the grassland, and there were countless grassland beauties, which made the lord very jealous. So he handed over a team of 1,000 men under his command to Sang Kun and asked him to open the way to the grassland for him. Sang Kun failed in the grassland hegemony, not that his strength is not good, Sang Kun has lived on the grassland for half his life, and he is still very experienced in the war on the grassland, he lived up to the expectations of the lord, and led the men and horses to lay a piece of land on the edge of the grassland.

The tribes on the grassland were already sparse, and Sang Kun effortlessly knocked down a large area of the grassland, so that the lord was convinced of Sang Kun's words, so under Sang Kun's persuasion, he gathered all the soldiers and horses of all the cities in the entire Western Regions under his command, ready to take revenge on the Qin army that defeated him. He boasted to his allies of a country in the east, with more gold, silver and jewels, abundant land, countless grains, and countless black-haired beauties, which impressed the city lords, who had always prided themselves on plundering, and they gathered their armies to attack the country in the east.

After a thunderous sneak attack on the westernmost Yumen Pass of the Great Wall, Sang Kun ordered his people to occupy the Yumen Pass, and then led his people to attack the mainland of Qin. There are 600,000 troops in his hands, and the people of the Western Regions are even more vigorous, they have stimulated their bandit attributes, and the siege of the city can be said to be extremely familiar, Sang Kun almost did not encounter any major confrontation along the way, and he arrived at the door of Beijun.

"Great Chief, our scouts have already found out, there are less than 200,000 people in this city, and only half of the army defending the city, I think we will be able to defeat this city in less than a day. Sang Kun's military advisor and personal guard leader Haruki said.

Sang Kun rode on his horse and looked at the deep wall of the northern county city, and he said to Haruki: "Haruki, you are wrong, this city is not easy to attack. ”

"Why did the big leader say that? Isn't the Great Wall boasted by the Qin army even higher than this? Wasn't it still successfully attacked by our people at once?" Haruki looked at an army on his left, they were holding shields in their hands, longbows and quivers on their backs, and each of them was holding a spear nearly a zhang long in their hands, this army could be said to be their main force, the army of the lord's cronies behind them.

Sang Kun raised the horsewhip in his hand and pointed at Beijun and said: "Although our speed is very fast, these Qin people spread the news faster, and the cities we occupied before were all small cities, and they couldn't be compared with the city in front of us at all. I also heard that this city is the most powerful city in the vicinity of the Qin army, and as long as we take this place, we will be able to use this city as a base to launch an attack on their capital. I want these Qin people to know how powerful I am Sang Kun!"

Haruki spoke again and asked, "Great Chief, shall we start the siege?"

"Of course, let those miscellaneous soldiers go up for us first to see how powerful the Qin army is, anyway, these people are all robbers, and no one cares if they die. "Sang Kun's soldiers and horses are mixed, in addition to the descendants of the lords of the major cities, there are more robbers and bandits who are wandering around the Western Regions, these people add up to nearly 150,000 or 60,000, and after hearing what Sang Kun said this time, they also joined the queue to attack the Qin State.

"Yes, don't worry, big chief. Haruki bent down to Sangkun with one hand on his chest, and then rode down to deliver the order to siege the city. All right

"Knock", "knock", "knock", the dull and heavy war drums sounded outside the Beijun city, and one after another hit the hearts of the Beijun soldiers standing on the city wall.

"The Hu people are going to prepare for the siege, everyone get ready!" said Abra, standing on the city wall.

The soldiers of the northern county on the city walls began to move, transporting arrows, grain and grass, as well as sandalwood and rolling stones, and in the gatehouse above the city gate, there were also ten wooden barrels, filled with fire oil, which were specially prepared to prevent the enemy from knocking on the door. The walls of Beijun are five feet tall, and if the enemy does not have a ladder high enough, it is impossible to attack the city through the walls, and the only way is to break through the city gates.

The Hu army outside the city began to move, and at least 100,000 Hu people appeared at each of the four city gates, divided into 50,000 detachments of 20,000 people, and then displayed in front of the city gates. Among the 50,000 men were 20,000 cavalrymen, 10,000 archers, and the rest were all foot soldiers, and the cavalry was divided into two sides, with the archers in the center, and the foot soldiers in front of them with shields, and slowly advanced towards the city gate.

The sound of the Hu people's horns hovered over the Beijun City, causing great panic in the hearts of the people in the city. Han Jin, the county guard, led his men and horses to patrol the city, in case someone took this opportunity to cause chaos in the city, and at the same time gave the people in the city a reassurance, as long as the northern county city could hold on for more than two days, reinforcements would arrive on the third day.

"Shoot arrows!" Seeing that the Hu people's infantry had reached a distance of less than fifty paces from the city wall, the generals guarding the four city gates ordered their soldiers to fire arrows at them almost at the same time. For a while, on the city wall in all directions, arrows were densely packed like raindrops, tilting towards the Hu people's siege soldiers outside the city.

Almost every one of the Hu foot soldiers at the forefront had a shield in their hands, and after seeing the Qin people on the city wall start to release arrows, their steps slowed down and raised their shields to resist the arrows that came from the fire. The arrows in the northern county town are almost all wolf's tooth arrows, which have the ability to break through armor very strongly, and the spearhead of the arrow is even covered with a layer of mercury in order to increase sharpness and toughness. There are many shields of the Hu people's foot soldiers, but they are all wooden, and the sharpness of this kind of arrow is simply not resistible, and some even if they block one, they can't block the second one, and for a while, all the Hu people who were hit by the arrow almost fell down.

However, the sacrifice of these people was still effective, and the archers behind them also successfully reached the city of Beijun and began to shoot at the archers of the Qin army on the city wall. The city wall of Beijun is very high, and it is difficult to shoot arrows up, especially these archers they do not have any protection measures, they do not have an advantage in the face of the Qin army archers on the city wall, they almost shoot a Qin army, and the Qin army has already shot five or six of them or even seven or eight people.

The archers of the Qin army on the city wall will be replaced by their companions behind them to rest after shooting more than ten arrows in a row, because the loss of arm strength of the archers' continuous archery is huge, so the Qin army is extremely strict in the training of archers, and they must go down to rotate after shooting the prescribed arrows. Although the stock of arrows in the city of Beijun is extremely rich, it is still a little insufficient in the face of 600,000 Hu people, not to mention that the four city walls have to shoot arrows at the Hu people at the same time, after each archer shoots his own arrows, the arrows in the city have almost gone down half, but these arrows have caused nearly 20,000 casualties to the Hu people.

Archery has stopped on the walls, as there are not many archers in the northern county, and they can only be rotated once, and it takes two hours for these archers to continue shooting at the enemy. Without the suppression of arrows, the Hu people outside the city began to attack the city, but they soon discovered a problem, that is, their ladders were not high enough, and the ladders captured in the Qin army camp that had been attacked before could not reach the wall of Beijun at all, and there was a distance of nearly one zhang.

"Order someone to break open the city gate for me!" Sang Kun didn't expect the Qin army in the city to be so stubborn, he ordered Haruki next to him again: "No matter how many people die, I must break the city gate for me, and I will enter the city tonight." ”

Haruki had just returned from the front line, and he was a little shocked by the fact that he had such a large casualty in a short period of time, and he said: "Great leader, the Qin army in the city is a bit powerful, should we withdraw the army first, raise our ladder, and then carry out it together with the attack on the city gate, I am afraid that too many of our people will die and other generals will have opinions on the big leader." ”

Sang Kun shook his head, and he said, "No, as long as we can storm the city, it will be worth the number of deaths. There are so many of us, we can't give Qin Jun time to rest, and we have to consume them to death all the time. Go and give me the order, and be sure to break through the gates of the city for me and kill me into the city!"
