Chapter 686: Outpost
In the early days of the Great Qin Great Wall, the various forces that occupied Chang'an sent people to capture Yanzhou and actively built it, but after many years, the Xiongnu in the north did not attack, and the Northern Tang Dynasty was also trapped in the Three Kingdoms War and had to withdraw the border defense forces. And once there is the first time, it will become more and more arbitrary, and in the end, the Great Wall of Qin will not even have basic maintenance personnel.
It was not until the repulsion of Gumeng that the Song State rebuilt the Great Wall of Qin, but the focus was on the Great Wall from the pass to Shanhaiguan, so the Mo family could only use their own funds to build the Great Wall in the territory of the ancient Qin, and the result was that the defense ability of the Great Wall was relatively poor, fortunately, the Mo family was not stupid, and immediately launched the "key defense" This countermeasure, laying a high-speed railway in Yanzhou that can quickly reach all points of the Great Wall and adapt to the wartime map.
This time it was broken through by the Huns, but it was not because the railway was cut off, nor because the enemy was not detected, but because there were too many opponents, and every fortified point was a "key point", so that the Yanzhou troops had to retreat to the city.
This is not an exaggeration, among the ancient Mongolians that straddle the eastern and western Middle Earth, the territory of the Xiongnu is the most vast.
They were inherited from the ancient Western country of the Austro-Celestial Republic, and were later conquered by the Hungarian Kingdom "peacefully" to form the Austro-Hungarian Empire, dominating the western corner. Later, when Middle-earth weakened, the Austro-Hungarian Empire expanded its territory to the east, creating the Ultraman Empire, which dominated the two regions for a while.
Due to the fact that the remnants of Middle-earth were still there, the Ultraman Empire, which had stolen the heritage of Ancient Egypt, tried to forcibly get involved with it, and it didn't take long for Ultraman Empire officers who could transform into giant god soldiers, sphinxes, huge golden flying towers, and self-proclaimed "superhumans" to appear on the battlefield one after another—this was an extremely shocking and destructive existence in the era of the Seventh Order, which was extremely rare in the seventh order.
It didn't take long for the Ultraman Empire to expand its territory closer to the east, and the trembling West united to form the Europa League to withstand their attack.
It's just that the Ultraman Empire also came to an end, and the empire that developed from a civilized country to barbarism eventually fell apart and became Ottoman, Black Sheep, White Sheep, Atub, Mamluk, Persian, Turkish, Ilarang and other countries.
Of course, one of the protagonists, the Huns, is also among them.
With the destruction of the Ottomans, who inherited the most civilization legacy, by the Greeks, the countries that separated from the Ultraman Empire were completely transformed back into primitive and barbaric states, fighting all day long, exhausted by internal friction, and by the time the Roman Empire rose, they had long lost their former strength.
If they were defeated by the Roman Empire, it would be nothing, but they were defeated by the rejuvenated ancient kingdom of Middle-earth, the Ultraman countries that indulged in the imperial relics handed down from ancient Middle-earth as the supreme symbol, and took pride in owning Solomon's ten rings, and this obsession was also certified by the system, so that their power was tied to the rings.
At this time, the ancient kingdoms of Middle-earth united and entrusted the heroes of the Golbitt race to take Solomon's core, the symbol of the ancient kingdom of Middle-earth, the Ring of Kings, and cast them into the creation volcano, returning the glory of ancient Middle-earth to the heavens.
The countries of Middle-earth broke and stood up and regained their lives, but this practice also caused the Ultraman countries with the other nine precepts to be counterattacked, and the country's fortunes declined, and they were finally broken by the Middle-earth Alliance.
Of course, the Xiongnu were one of the lucky countries, but in terms of the actual situation, they were just a small country at that time, and they could not snatch the ring from the big countries at all, so naturally there was no situation where the national fortune was backfired.
After that, it was this hard-won luck that made the Huns wait for the birth of Attila, and then went to glory.
To the east to the Pacific Ocean, to the west all the way to the capital of Rome, Alexander was slain, and the largest country in history was born.
Although this moment lasted less than a year before it ended with Attila's retreat to the East, this achievement was unprecedented, and even those who came would surely be shocked by Attila's great past.
It is worth mentioning that Alexander originated in the province of Macedonia, a pan-hellenic territory annexed by Rome, and it is natural to call Attila's actions "the perfect revenge after thousands of years".
At this point, the Huns finally abandoned the past of the Ultraman Empire and Middle-earth, because they finally had their own proud history.
And this pride has been maintained to this day, reflected in the size of the country and the inflow of people.
Most of the people of the Star Continent, at least in the hinterland of the East, live a primitive nomadic life, often migrating entire tribes over long distances...... But if you ask them the direction of migration, it must be the area where the Xiongnu are located.
The Star God is high above, and the Star Nation does not expand its territory, so they have to worship Attila as an envoy sent by the Star God to walk the earth—even if civilization is lost, people's enthusiasm for the sect has never weakened.
And the Xiongnu also intended to receive foreign populations to strengthen themselves, and by the way, find an excuse to annex these countries...... In the end, even if the desert wasteland is the largest and the population is not the largest, the Xiongnu also have the largest fighting population in ancient Mongolia.
After all, in a predominantly nomadic people, men are basically combatants after the age of twelve.
So among the 15 million standing army of Gumeng, the Xiongnu accounted for one-fifth, reaching the number of 3 million, and the soldiers who were lost in the Western Xiongnu and the "outpost war" were removed, and now the Xiongnu also have more than 2.5 million soldiers, which is more than the troops of the whole Song Dynasty.
What was it like to be besieged by an army of 800,000?
The defender of Yanzhou saw this day, and also knew that the medium-sized city could not stop the joint bombardment of 800,000 troops for a day.
Such a large-scale troop crossing completely shocked the entire northwest region, and what was even more terrifying was that in less than a day, 400,000 Hun soldiers approached Wuwei City, which was finally recaptured.
"Retreat!"
Ximen Zhi ordered, Wuwei City had been destroyed by the whip of God earlier, but the city with a little fame in the setting of the system will not die, and even if no one arrives after disappearing temporarily, it will slowly recover, and Suss also intended to develop this place as a stronghold, and now Wuwei's defense has recovered to the level of a small town, but it is really impossible to block the 400,000 army with this.
Ximenzhi didn't come for this, his identity in Jiang's family was the commander-in-chief of the intelligence force, and he ran away when he found out the enemy's situation, which is what should be done.
It's just that his worst fear has finally happened.
In the past few months, the Great Song Dynasty has regained a lot of advantages because of the information of Gumeng, and even Attila was killed by them...... But the key to playing intelligence warfare is that the other side wants to deal with you, in other words, the gap between the two sides is not so big, or the stronger side wants to reduce losses, intelligence can maximize its effect.
But after Attila's death, that scruple disappeared, and the Huns poured out, giving up what they were not good at, and choosing to crush everything with absolute strength and absolute strength.
And then there's-
"Report to your lordship, the enemy only leaves women and supplies, and other ......"
The subordinates gritted their teeth in hatred and couldn't talk anymore.
"I can see it. ”
Ximen Zhi looked calm, at least on the surface, pretending to be calm.
Because he knew that this slaughter was only the beginning, and the enemy had to fight all the way in order to keep himself strong.
"Go back, we're going to get ready for a tough fight. ”
