Chapter 184: The Huns are coming
The construction of ditches and wells was originally a military operation organized by Gongzi without loss, but the people knew that this was to help them solve the drought, and everyone from the elderly in their seventies to the young and young children participated. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Chen Ling pushed him in a wheelchair, and when he walked to the canal he was digging, there were many people who saw this high-ranking prince for the first time, it is said that this prince's eyes were like the reincarnation of a plague god, but in their opinion, this prince just didn't like to laugh, he looked indifferent, but he was completely unangry.
On the tenth day of returning to Yumen Pass, she received a letter full of complaints from An Ruoxi, she laughed while looking at it, Gongzi glanced at her without loss, and asked coldly, "Who did you receive a love letter from, smiling so happily." ”
Chen Ling replied casually, "An Ruoxi." He reacted immediately and said angrily, "What a love letter, an epistle!" Epistle! ”
Childe smiled without loss, "Okay, it's been ten days, you should also go, let Bai Yu protect you, and set off immediately." ”
Chen Ling wanted to reply with a "no", but she knew she couldn't.
She ran over and hugged him.
Childe patted her back comfortably, "Everything is fine here, and my leg injury is getting better." Don't worry about it. ”
"I feel sorry for you, you are always paying for me, and I have always turned a blind eye, and now we have finally come together, but we have gathered less and left more." Chen Ling lay in his arms and muttered.
"Silly girl, people grow, and it's the same when you're done." He whispered reassurance.
There were tears in her eyes, "Qilin, then you take care of your body, the next time I want to see you, you will be chubby for nothing." ”
Childe joked without loss, "As fat as the fat five who sells meat in the town, will you dislike me?" ”
Chen Ling thought of Fat Five's appearance, burst into tears, and whispered, "I won't dislike you if you are fatter than Fat Five." ”
By this time, the maid had already come out with her luggage.
Gongzi took the luggage and looked at it without loss, and asked the maid to take a few more things, and when the maid brought it, he put it away carefully, and then handed the luggage to Chen Ling, "Be careful on the road." ”
"Well, you won't be able to hide it from me this time. and neither shall you punish peace. Don't stop Ping An from sending me a letter. ”
"Hmm." He replied.
She reluctantly got on the horse with Bai Yu, waved her hand and whipped away.
How did she know that the Xiongnu army was more ferocious than in previous years, mighty and mighty, and went straight to Yumen Pass.
In late autumn, there is a chill in the wind, and the leaves are all off.
Gongzi stood on the city wall without loss, and the tents of the Huns in the distance had been set up, and this time the team was the largest in ten years.
The Huns are strong and strong, presumably they have been bargaining for a few times in the Yumen Pass, and now they are even more focused on breaking the Yumen Gate.
The soldiers on the city wall, each of them was terrified, and after the first few Hun attacks, they even had the idea of surrendering without a fight.
Luo Zhen's face was also gloomy.
Childe looked at him coldly and said, "What's the matter, you're scared?" ”
Luo Zhen was seen through, and his face was ugly, "No." ”
The corners of Childe's mouth pulled up coldly, and he mocked, "If even you are scared, then we have already lost." ”
Luo Zhen lowered his head, "Your Highness, the Huns are strong and strong, and we are weak, so it is difficult to be an opponent." ”
Childe sneered, his eyes swept around the soldiers who also thought so, his voice was slightly higher, and he said slowly, "Look at your cowardly appearance, you think we will be defeated before we fight, right?" That's because you don't have the determination to win, and you make excuses for your own retreat, soldiers, behind us are the people of Lebanes, our families, our parents, our children, our wives, behind us are our homes for survival, and outside the city are the robbers who burn and plunder, and they would rather die standing than live on their knees, and fight until the next moment. ”
The more he spoke, the more agitated the soldiers became, and one soldier whispered, "Fight until the last moment." ”
More and more soldiers followed, sonorous and powerful, "Fight to the last moment." ”
Until the soldiers on the entire city wall were shouting, "Fight until the last moment." ”
On that day, these six words spread throughout the entire Yumen Pass, large and small corners, and on that day, the six words "fight to the last moment" resounded in the sky.
Suddenly, there was a thought in everyone's mind, "I can win." ”
In the afternoon of that day, Gongzi ordered the trebuchet and other things made a few days ago to be transported to the city gate, and everything was ready, just waiting for the Huns to come.
The next day, the mist gradually dissipated, and the sky was full of dark clouds, and a gust of wind blew through the yellow sand.
Hu Zhi Shan Yu led the troops to stand in front of the city gate, the high Hun banner was particularly obvious in the team, the number was not much, less than 20,000 people, but they were all elite soldiers.
It is said that in the past, only 10,000 people could break through the city, but this year it is more than twice as many as in previous years.
There were Hun soldiers shouting, and the ugly insults were similar to kneeling down at the city gate and sparing the dog's life.
Gongzi stood in front of the city gate with a cloak around his cape, with no expression on his calm face, and asked in a cold voice, "Luo Zhen, are you ready?" ”
Luo Zhen suppressed the timidity in his heart and replied, "Your Highness, everything is ready, the archers are in place." The trebuchet is also ready. ”
"Hmm. Wait for the command. Childe commanded in a deep voice.
"Yes." Luo Zhen replied, and then stood aside, pretending to be calm under the skin, hiding a suspicious heart.
In the past, the strength of Yumen Pass was okay, but this year it was the weakest, a few years ago the Huns shouted and scolded in front of the formation, and there were angry guards who went out to resist the enemy, and the Huns turned up the sledgehammer to be vigorous, and the Huns made whether it was a spear or a halberd, it was twice as heavy as theirs, so every time they met the battle, they would be defeated.
From then on, he did not go out to meet the battle, but stood by the gates.
Short time to hold on for a day, long time also for ten days, and then the army spirit collapsed, the general took the lead in running, the pass was lost, the Huns entered the city to burn and loot, and the nearby villages also suffered.
Every year, will there be improvements this year? He looked at the sick prince in front of him, would such a prince hold this city?
Yumen closed the city.
Hu held the evil single Yu squinted his eyes and looked up, only to see that there was an unknown person on the city gate who seemed to be the leader, could it be that the Yumen guard was replaced?
He asked to the side, "Zhichen, who is guarding the city at Yumen Pass now?" ”
Zhichen also looked at the city gate, he didn't look like Wang Gui, and when he heard Shan Yu ask himself like this, he was even more panicked, "Shan Yu forgives sins, Zhichen doesn't know." ”
Hu Zhi Shan Yu frowned and said angrily, "Bastard, I don't even know about such an important matter. ”
Zhichen was too frightened to speak.
Hu Hu Shan Yu snorted coldly, his face was cold, "I'll settle accounts with you when I go back." ”
He looked up at the city, and the people at the city gate did not react at all to the soldiers' invective, and he commanded in a deep voice, "Bow and arrow." Zhichen hurriedly handed over the bow and arrows.
Hu Jie drew his strong bow and crossbow, aimed at the man standing in the middle of the city wall, and watched as the people around him bowed down to him, he should be the biggest leader.
He drew his bow fiercely, the arrow flashing with cold light, and with a snap he let go, and with a whoosh, the arrow was as fast as lightning, and shot at the man in the middle of the gate with unmistakable accuracy.
