The felt tent caught fire and burned, and wisps of black smoke rose and tumbled up into the blue sky in late autumn. Beneath the crumbling earthen walls, the Hun knights galloped back and forth, their bows and arrows aimed at the men who tried to resist, and the whips in their hands drove the weeping women and children away from their smoking homes and joined the ranks of the slaves with thousands of sheep.

The Gudu Hou Huyanlan rode a tall steed, wearing a helmet made of wild boar teeth, and watched with satisfaction all this, and the flower horse pond, a land full of salt and grass, was torn by the hooves of the Huns.

"This is the price of betraying the great Dan of the Huns set up by heaven!"

Huyanlan is one of the few people in the Xiongnu who have their own surname, in the Xiongnu, but all the nobles who have been officials for generations have taken the tribal name as their surname. Among them, the larger ones are Huyan, Lan, and Xubu, and these three surnames are all nobles.

For generations, their family has been the left bone marquis by Shan Yu's side, and they were previously ordered by Tou Manshan Yu to come to Henan to recall Prince Maodun and the four monarchs. Unexpectedly, Mao Dun learned the news in advance and fled on his own, and the four departments of Henan were also panicked, especially Yan Yan, Lin Hu, or ghosts in their hearts, for fear that they would not return to the north, and they were frightened by Tou Mandan's order and immediately rebelled!

Huyanlan can imagine how angry Tou Manshan will be after hearing about this, and maybe he will be angry with him, so Huyanlan can only strive to pacify the rebellion in Henan within the year, he asked Helan Dadang to collect all the departments, and he took more than 1,000 horsemen to Yanyan first, and punished the rebels!

According to the rules of the Xiongnu, the rebellious tribe will be put into sheepskin bags and trampled to death by thousands of horses!

And their tribe will disappear from the steppe, and boys who are taller than the wheels will be killed! The rest of the women were given as rewards to the tribes who had contributed to the suppression of the rebellion.

Huyanlan is just a vanguard, behind him, there are Helan's 4,000 Hun horsemen on the road, and they will arrive in a few days!

After spending a few days and sweeping the Yanyan tribes along the way with more than 1,000 Hun cavalry, Huyanlan led the crowd to Huamachi City. Xiaoyi was closed, and the city was crowded with fleeing Yanyan, and the old Yanjun was also at the head of the city, trembling and watching the punishment brought by the Huns.

The Hun cavalry gathered in a circle, screeched their whips, and struck an unarmed man who had been stripped of his weapons, striking him on the back and cheeks, making him scurry until the flesh was blurred, and then the whip hooked his ankles, causing him to fall to the ground, and then shot an arrow through his back.

Hu Yanlan personally cut off the man's head, and let the cavalry gallop close to the city, dodging the scattered arrows from the city's head, and throwing it to the city!

This man was the leader of a small neighboring tribe, and the Huns hoped to spread panic with its death.

In the eyes of the Huns, they are unstoppable wolves, eagles soaring proudly on the grassland, and Yan Yanrong is just his own salt slave, a bleating sheep, and a panicked chicken!

The Huns laughed, and the people in the city were indignant, and they asked the Huns to fight: "Chief, we also have horses and thousands of warriors, rush out of the city and teach the Huns a lesson!" ”

"No, just close the city, and no one is allowed to leave the city!"

Yan Yanjun has lost his former wealth, his hair is whiter, his body looks a little rickety because of cold or fear, and the mustache that he forgot to rub oil sags weakly.

Two hundred years ago, they submitted to the powerful Yiqu State, after the decline of Yiqu, the Qin State focused on the eastward annexation of the Six Kingdoms, and was not interested in the Far Outer Barren Land, and Yan Yan was able to live a free life and gathered wealth by developing Huamachi.

But about 20 years ago, the Xiongnu gradually became stronger, unified the middle of the grassland, crossed the river desert to the Huama Pond, although the Rong people were still martial, but they were invincible to the Hun cavalry who came and went like the wind, and Yan Yan could only choose to surrender, paying a huge amount of salt and sheep every year, in exchange for the Huns not to plunder themselves.

In the past 20 years, the fear of the Xiongnu has been rooted in the heart of Yan Yanjun, who went to Shan Yu to be a hostage in the royal court, knowing that the Xiongnu controlled the strength of 100,000 people.

Therefore, unless there is a stronger backer worth running to, Yun Yanjun will never dare to turn his back on the Xiongnu.

"Qin is ten times bigger than the Huns, Qin is a hundred times as big as the Huns, Qin is rich, a thousand times as rich as the Huns! If Yan Yan does not follow Qin, he will perish with the Xiongnu, if he follows Qin, Jun can be exempted from going to Shan Yuting, and he will be Qin Rong Zhai Jun Gong for generations! ”

Wu Shiyan, who often came to buy salt, was so tempted that he persuaded Yan Yanjun.

But at this moment, the tribal perished, and the crisis of the extinction of the clan was just around the corner, which made him doubt the decision he made, and instructed the people in the city not to rush out of the city.

Yan Yanjun squeezed out a smile: "Wujun...... Great Qin Heavenly Soldiers, when will they arrive? ”

"The Captain of Beidi County has led his troops to leave Yiqu City, and I ordered the envoy to go to Xiaoguan to report the emergency, I think it is coming soon......"

Having said that, Wu Shiyan didn't know the bottom in his heart.

Although Heifu has reached today's status with his military exploits, the places where he fought in the past were all in the southern waters, and the situation in the north and south was very different, so Wu Shiyan did not know whether this Heifu county lieutenant could be as skilled as Li Xin and Qiang Qi when he commanded the northern athletes to fight in the fortress.

"If he comes on a light horse, he will be able to arrive today or tomorrow, and if he is cautious and the army marches in a group, I am afraid it will take several days......"

Wu Shiyan also regrets it now, their family wants to prove themselves in this war, they are too active, but now they are trapped in the city, this Huamachi City is still Wu Shi invited craftsmen to help Yan Jun repair, in order to protect the green salt transported from the south to the north.

The conditions outside the fortress are limited, the height of the city is only two zhang, although Yan Yanjun has included the young and strong people in the headquarters, and the manpower is enough, but in the face of the attack of the Huns, can it withstand a few days without collapsing?

Wu Shiyan and Yan Yan Jun went down to the city, and were thinking about it, but they heard the Rong people at the head of the city suddenly shouting: "Be careful! The Huns rushed over! ”

As soon as he was stunned, Yan Yanjun's two sons had already thrown him to the ground!

A bass buzz sounded, like a swarm of bees flying by, and the whistling arrows were like a winter rain, sprinkled on the head of Huamachi City, nailed to the erected planks and shields, making a clanging sound, and from time to time there were screams.

An arrow was also nailed to Wu Shiyan's side, and the black bird feathers trembled slightly, and when he pulled it up, he saw that it was a cluster of arrows made of bones......

This was just a temptation of the Huns, more than a thousand Hun horses roared over, opened their bows and arrows, and went back in a circle. The Huns did not have a lot of experience in attacking cities, but they also understood that their bows and arrows could not cause much damage to the city, and the Xiongnu commanders were shrewd hunters and would not waste their precious bows and arrows in useless indiscriminate shooting.

"But if all the Huns in Helan Mountain are concentrated here, it will be different......"

After getting up from the ground, Yan Yanjun's face was sad, as far as he knew, there were as many as four or five thousand Hun riders in Helan alone, and many of them were good shooters. At that time, five or six thousand arrows will be shot in from all sides, and the horses will be pulled down by the thin walls, and at that time, it will be the disaster of the Yanyan people.

The Huns under the command of the Marquis of Gudu, sometimes scattered, sometimes gathered, came and went around the city of Huamachi like the wind, they divided out four hundred horsemen, under the leadership of four hundred people, from time to time harassed the city around, the other horsemen were divided into pieces, began to scatter in all directions, to plunder the Huamachi around, too late to enter the city to avoid the Yanyan tribes.

The intermittent nuisance of the Huns lasted all night, they seemed to have no need to dismount, eating, drinking and Lazar could be solved on the horse, and in the early morning of the next day, Wu Shiyan slept in a daze, and was suddenly woken up by the concubine who was waiting for him!

When he put on his clothes and came to the city in a daze, Yan Yanjun looked at the west with a pale face......

In the distance, dense Hun riders were slowly coming from the yellow sand and withered grass, they were one hundred and one teams, there were more than ten teams, plus the ox carts with felt tents, they actually covered a radius of several miles.

The Xiongnu reinforcements from Lanshan set off in batches according to the distance and proximity, and this was only the first batch.

"It's over." Yan Yanjun almost collapsed to the ground.

At this moment of despair, a stirring cheer rang out from the south of the city......

"Couldn't it be!"

Yan Yanjun and Wu Shiyan glanced at each other, and immediately overjoyed, and rushed to the south of the city on the city wall to take a look, and sure enough, a few miles to the south, on the salt flat by the Huama Pond, there was a chariot with a black flag!

The banner is clear, and the word "Qin" in a seal is written on it with plain white lacquer! As the wind rushes up, the flag hunts and hunts!

With the appearance of the car, some black spots were revealed on the horizon one after another, and they continued to leap forward, more and more, and finally occupied the entire field of vision!

It was the cavalry of the Qin army, and the more than 1,000 heel army forwards sent by Heifu arrived at Huamachi!

This is also the first time that the army of the Central Plains has appeared in the north of Xiaoguan!

Although the number of reinforcements was not yet known, Yan Yanjun seemed to have been saved, he fell to the ground with tears streaming down his face, looked towards the south, and when he raised his head, he opened his arms and said loudly to his people:

"Today, the sun rises from the south!"
