Chapter 62: The Huns Attack [Ask for votes, ask for recommendation votes!] 】
"Captain Zuo is really like a god, tonight's city defense is lax, it is our chance!" The thousand riders were wearing armor and licked their fat lips, and their eyes were full of tyranny.
Another thousand cavalry commander flattered: "It's still Captain Zuo who is strategizing to transfer the city defense garrison, I admire it!" At first, I thought that Lu Yong was killed, and the plan had to be canceled! Unexpectedly, the county lieutenant of Muhuai County was willing to assist, it was really a blessing from Immortal Heaven! ”
"That stupid county lieutenant of Great Qin is still trying to share the treasure, this Qianqi wants to kill his wife and children, and it can be regarded as eliminating the harm for the eldest son of Great Qin, hahaha!" The other captain licked the scimitar and smirked.
"Hmm."
Imori nodded, listening to the flattery of his subordinates, and a smug smile appeared on his face.
This time, if he hadn't been attacked by Donghu on the way to retreat, he would not have suffered heavy losses, and he had to take a risk.
Otherwise, I am afraid that someone will starve to death in less than three months, and then I will set my sights on Muhuai County, which is the closest to the grassland among the counties of Daqin!
As long as the grain and livestock are recovered, not only will there be food for the next few months, but there will also be no need to worry about food for the winter.
According to the practice of Daqin, this time is the time when the wheat is ripe and the grain is concentrated.
All you need to do is grab the granary, and you can get enough grain and livestock.
Moreover, you can also grab a large number of women and young people as slaves, which is just a lot of money!
Especially yesterday, according to the detailed report sent out, the first emperor of Great Qin actually died, and now the transfer of power in the imperial court is the weakest time!
This news made Zuo Dadu Lieutenant Imori even more excited, thinking that it was the blessing of immortality that helped the Huns survive the crisis!
The sky of Daqin collapsed, which made the high-level Huns excited.
"Captain Zuo, let's act immediately, we have robbed the grain and livestock earlier, and we will not be charged with resisting the order!" A worried reminder from a thousand riders.
The corner of Imori's eyes twitched, and he laughed proudly: "Don't worry, as long as you bring back the good news of the death of the First Emperor of Great Qin, and pay some more livestock and women, you will not be punished!" ”
The flattering thousand cavalry commander also immediately said: "That's right, I heard that the royal court is also short of food and grass now, and I can't say that I will reward Captain Zuo Dadu when the time comes!" ”
"Reasonable!"
"That's true!"
"Hahaha!"
The high-ranking Hun cavalry laughed proudly, as if they had grabbed a lot of money.
In their eyes, with the response of the county lieutenant, how could the city defense of a mere hundred people be able to stop the five thousand elites who are good at riding and shooting.
It only takes one impact to enter the city and start a feast of burning, killing and looting!
According to the Xiongnu military system, the soldiers and horses under the control of Captain Zuo Dadu were more than 5,000 and less than 10,000.
This sneak attack on Daqin County has almost brought out all those who can fight!
The remaining 3,000 old and weak soldiers were left behind, which can be regarded as an explanation to the superiors.
Although he had already found the internal response in advance, he was still worried that the 5,000 troops were still insufficient, and if he was dragged by the Qin army, when Meng Tian's reinforcements arrived, I am afraid that he would suffer heavy losses.
When the time comes, let alone looting, it will be a great luck to be able to bring back 2,000 soldiers and horses to break out of the encirclement!
So in order to be safe, I also found the right captain to join forces.
Although there is an extra meat to eat, it is acceptable to reduce the risk.
After all, he was just expelled by Great Qin and plundered by Donghu, which was the weakest time.
If all the soldiers and horses were left here, then Imori would not have to think about living anymore.
Unfortunately, the right lieutenant, fearing that the risk was too great, rejected this tempting offer.
Imori was originally unsteady along the way, but when he heard the news of Emperor Daqin's death, he immediately raised his head and laughed excitedly.
When Emperor Daqin died and the court was in chaos, it was a good time to start!
As long as you act quickly, I am afraid that there will be no casualties, and you will be able to rush into the county smoothly and return with a full load!
Smirked, "Order!" Speed up, and everyone will reward a Daqin woman at that time, hahaha! ”
"Hahaha!"
Suddenly, several thousand riders also let out a hearty laugh.
In their eyes, the grain, livestock and women in Muhuai County, twenty miles away, are already in their pockets!
Motivated by the reward, the cavalry increased in speed, and the sound of horses' hooves sounded in the night.
Twenty miles away, for the cavalry can be reached quickly.
Above the city tower, a herald shouted loudly: "Report~!" Qi Yu Gongzi, the Hun cavalry has traveled five miles away! ”
"It's finally here!"
Fu Su raised his eyebrows, a smile appeared on his face, and he said lightly: "The scout ahead can reveal his whereabouts?" ”
The herald hurriedly said: "According to your orders, our men just watched from afar, and withdrew when they hated it!"
However, the Hun cavalry seemed to be cautious and slowed down when they were five miles away! ”
Fusu bowed slightly, and said lightly: "Pass the order, prepare to fight!" ”
"No!"
The herald responded impassionedly, and hurriedly turned around to convey the order.
Fusu stood alone on the edge of the city tower, rubbing the dragon spear with his palm, and said helplessly to himself: "It's a pity that this battle can't make you drink blood!" ”
As the commander of the first army, it is impossible to go to the battlefield in person, and he can't help but show a touch of disappointment in his eyes.
If it really comes to the point where even the boss needs to go into battle to kill the enemy in person, it can only mean that the 20,000 elites of Great Qin have been defeated!
However, if you really lose if you are defeated with mental calculations or unintentional, and your strength is several times that of the enemy, you will not have the face to fight for the world anymore!
In the distance, you can already see the city walls of Muhuai County, and the sparse torches.
Da Da Da ~ On the road five miles away from the county seat, a cavalry marched forward under the cover of night.
The Imori slowed down his march and gave his horses time to rest, and when there were only two miles left, he was ready to launch a fierce charge!
There is only one chance, and you must break through the city defenses once and save as much time as possible!
Otherwise, the more time wasted, the less time you will be able to loot!
Under the slow march, you can already see the tall city wall of Muhuai County in front of you in the distance!
The distance was too far, and the night was dark, and I didn't see more than a thousand black-armored soldiers standing quietly under the city gate!
At the same time, the soldiers and horses in ambush at a distance on both sides were also prepared.
A lieutenant straightened his helmet and commanded in a low voice: "Tell the brothers to cheer up, if anyone dares to lose face in front of the eldest son, he will be punished heavily!" ”
"No!"
Suddenly, the order of Xiangtong quietly spread in the ambush on both sides.
After all, this is the first time that the eldest son has personally led a large army against the enemy, and if he loses the battle because of his own mistakes, it is estimated that he will have to accept military justice when he returns!
In the darkness, the Hun cavalry stopped two miles away.
Imori licked his tongue, like a bloodthirsty beast, staring at the hazy wall in the distance with a tyrannical gaze, and slowly raised his arms!
