At night, the gates of Chang'an City were closed, and a large number of soldiers patrolled the city.

Compared with the city gates on the east and west sides, there were obviously many more defenders on the north and south sides of the city.

It is not only because the north and south are in the main transportation route, but also because the second army of the north and south of the Han Dynasty is stationed in the south and north of Chang'an City.

After Zhou Bo's experience in killing Zhu Lu, the Han Emperor was extra careful about the movements of the two armies in the north and south, for fear that someone would climb the heights again and shout, causing the two armies to attack Chang'an City.

At about the same time, a sound like thunder suddenly came from the northern part of Chang'an City, near Los Angeles.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! ”

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

The ground trembled wildly, and even the city felt a little jolting.

Earth dragon turned over?

Not like!

Gongsun He hurriedly lay on the head of Los Angeles and looked into the distance.

Looking at the vast dust that rose at night, his face changed slightly.

As a general who participated in the Siege of Mayi, he knew what this phenomenon meant. With so much dust, the number of people who came was definitely not less than a thousand.

So, he instantly screamed, "Beat the drums, sound the gongs, and all the defenders will immediately enter the city!" ”

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Knock knock ......"

"Dangdang! Dangdang! Dangdangdang......"

Suddenly, the sound of drums and gongs tore a hole in the dark night where there were no fingers in sight.

"Boom!"

The gates were supported with a large amount of wood and reinforced to the extreme.

"Salad!" All the deadbolts were stuck in the grooves, and dozens of soldiers were holding on to the door with their bodies behind it.

With a series of messy footsteps,

"Dadada!"

"Dadada!"

"Dadada!"

A large number of weapons were taken out of the warehouse and transported to the city.

The defenders were in teams of five, and one person in each team carried a torch. "Huhu!"

Suddenly, the city head was brightly lit, illuminating more than 300 meters near Chang'an City.

A dozen bed crossbows open the strings, "buzzing"

"Click!" Meter-long crossbow bolts were placed in the frame.

"Buzz! Airplanes! Airplanes! "More than 300 archers were in place, two meters in one, with bows and arrows, and stood at the head of the city.

Rolling stones, wood...... Wait for the tools to defend the city to be moved out and piled up at the head of the city, waiting to be used.

Gongsun He pinned the iron sword at his waist, squinted his eyes at the sand and dust in the distance, and shouted loudly with the qi of the dantian in the distance: "Who is coming?" Stop! Do you intend to rebel? ”

Han Anguo, who was in the lead, gradually slowed down his horseback speed, feeling that the sound above the city was more familiar.

He shouted above the Luocheng Gate: "I am Han Anguo!" Please open the gates of the city quickly! Don't spoil Your Majesty's affairs! ”

"Lieutenant?" Gongsun He frowned, and then hurriedly lay on the city wall and looked down, "Lieutenant Qing, I am Gongsun He, can you approach and let me identify it carefully?" ”

Han Anguo shouted: "It turned out to be the general of the light car!" Wait a minute, general, I'll go! ”

Clamp the horse under the crotch with force and accelerate forward alone.

"Gada! Gada! ”

After a few breaths, Han Anguo walked from the darkness to the fire-lit city wall.

"General Light Car, I'm here!"

Gongsun He rubbed his eyes and looked at the man riding a horse below.

Dressed in the red armor of the standard of a Han general, he looked old, and his face was carved with a large number of wrinkles, and the years had left indelible marks on his body.

Gongsun He bowed and shouted below: "It turns out that it is really Han Gong." I don't know why Han Gong led that group of troops to Chang'an City? ”

Han Anguo looked at the defenders of Shenyang and Wucheng counties behind him, and said with a smile: "General Qingche must have misunderstood. I was ordered by His Majesty to go to arrest the people who falsely conveyed the will, but in desperation, I rushed out of the rebellious ministers and thieves halfway, trying to kill the disobedient people on the way. In addition, I have received news that the southern vassal states have sent dead soldiers in an attempt to assassinate Bai Mingzhe outside Chang'an! ”

"Worried that there would be a problem and a bad thing for Your Majesty, after I arrived in Shenyang, I specially asked the county lieutenant of Shenyang and the county lieutenant of Wucheng to prepare 800 infantry each to escort us back. The infantry in my rear are all the ears of the defenders of the two cities! ”

Gongsun He glanced at the infantry not far away, and then carefully looked at the armor soldiers among them.

"Now that Lieutenant Qing has returned, please let the defenders return immediately. Blocking the gate of Chang'an not far away, violating the etiquette system, what kind of system? If Your Majesty knows that you will lead your troops to storm the Los Angeles Gate, you must be relieved of your official position as lieutenant and sent to the court lieutenant. ”

Although Han Anguo is a lieutenant, he is in charge of the security of the Beijing Division.

But to lead more than 1,600 soldiers to the Luocheng Gate of Chang'an, even Lieutenant Qing did not have this power.

Since the pacification of Zhulu, the Liu family has paid special attention to the security problem near Jingshi.

If you want to mobilize troops and horses on a large scale near Chang'an, unless you get Liu Che's order, it is no different from rebellion.

Han Anguo nodded, and arched his hand: "What General Qingche said is reasonable, I will disperse the defenders of the two cities."

Immediately, he turned the horse under his crotch and gave a gesture to the army in the rear!

Tian Feng in the distance stared intently at Han Anguo's movements.

After seeing the wave of his hand, he immediately understood and ordered the surroundings: "All the defenders immediately return to their respective counties!" Lieutenant Sergeant escorted the criminal Bai Mingzhe over! ”

"No!"

Immediately, 1,600 infantry nodded and returned the same way.

And the carriage in which Bai Mingzhe was riding was immediately surrounded by lieutenant armor.

Tian Feng counted the number of soldiers and made sure that there was nothing missing, and then shouted: "Let's go, close to Chang'an City!"

"No!"

"Drive!"

"Drive! Drive! ”

"Crunch, crunch, crunch."

The carriage spun around and approached the Los Angeles Gate.

After the city wall, Han Anguo once again bowed his hand to the city head and said, "General Qingche, can you open the city gate now?" Thou hast set up such a pile of bed crossbows, it is too penetrating. It's not a sortie against the Huns, why do you carry so many bed crossbows out? ”

Even if it was a sortie against the Huns, it would not be possible to make dozens of bed crossbows.

Bed crossbows are something that can only be used by tens of thousands of troops during siege wars, right?

The range is 1,000 steps, and the power is amazing.

A crossbow arrow, a string of soldiers.

Ten crossbow arrows, when used at the right time, can almost create a vacuum on the battlefield.

After making sure that the more than 1,000 infantry had left, Gongsun He waved his hand at the staircase, asking the guards to give a signal to the soldiers blocking the city gate below, signaling them to open the door.

Then he smiled and said to Han Anguo: "Lieutenant Qing, don't I think I have military merits." If they are trying to rebel, they can avoid escaping with a bed crossbow. You also know that I have been stationed in Chang'an recently, and my military achievements are not good, so I am inevitably a little excited just now. Besides, wouldn't it be nice to take out the bed crossbow that had been in the treasury for so long? ”

Gongsun He glanced at Han Anguo meaningfully, and then said: "Besides, after you personally went to arrest the criminal, I was ordered by Your Majesty to be stationed here instead of the lieutenant. If you are in my position, I am afraid that I will be even more excited, and I can't wait to empty the treasury, and then go to the arsenal to get equipment to defend against the rebels and thieves. ”

Han Anguo looked at Gongsun He speechlessly, and said, "Why should General Qingche be anxious. You still have the opportunity to go to the battlefield to defend against the Huns, and I am busy with official business all day in Beijing, so I dare not ask Your Majesty to send me on the expedition for fear of problems with public security. If you want military merits, you can't just go to the Huns. Why focus on the least likely rebellion and increase sorrow? ”

"If the Xiongnu were so easy to deal with, my Han would not have declared war on them for nearly seventy years." Gongsun He spread his hands, quite helpless.

"Why do you grow the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige?" Han Anguo raised his head, looked at Gongsun He, and said loudly: "My Han is different from the past, since Mayi, the Han and the Xiongnu have officially started a war, and the Xiongnu will be expelled from the desert sooner or later!" Moreover, His Majesty intends to cultivate Zhongqing, and when he was on duty in Weiyang Palace, I felt that he had the ability to lead troops. If you attack the Huns, you will definitely gain something. ”

Gongsun He laughed a few times.

Wei Qing is his brother-in-law.

When he heard others praise his brother-in-law, he was also sincerely happy.

"Hahaha, Zhong Qing does have the shadow of a good general, leading troops to fight, I'm afraid I can't do it. Your Majesty's knowledge of people is beyond our reach as courtiers! However, Zhong Qing is still young, and leading troops to fight is not as good as an experienced veteran like Lieutenant Qing, if he really attacks the Huns, he has to look up to Han Gong. ”

"General Light Car is too modest." Han Anguo shook his head with a smile, "I have a hunch that the Xiongnu will be completely pacified in the hands of my generation!" ”

Gongsun He laughed, "Then borrow Lieutenant Qing's auspicious words!" It's really settled, so I'll find a piece of land outside Chang'an and live a leisurely and comfortable life. ”

Looking at the slowly opening city gate, Han Anguo bowed his hand and said goodbye, "Okay, I won't talk to you anymore, Your Majesty is still waiting for me to go and restore my life." If I have the opportunity, I will hold a banquet at home and invite the general to drink! ”

Gongsun He also returned the salute and said, "Okay! Then I am at home, waiting for your invitation! ”

"Well, General Light Car, there will be a period later!"

Han Anguo waved his hand, "Speed up and send the prisoner to Tingwei!" ”

"No!"

Dozens of armor soldiers in the rear shouted in unison, and almost at the same time slammed their whips, whipped their horses, and accelerated forward.

Above the city, Gongsun He looked at the lieutenant armor who galloped away, couldn't help but nodded, and couldn't help but admire: "Well-trained, orderly advance and retreat, worthy of being a soldier, it is indeed stronger than ordinary soldiers!" It is no wonder that there are many soldiers and soldiers, and armor soldiers are rare. ”

The social status of a soldier is completely different from that of a soldier.

A soldier is equivalent to a soldier who has already obtained a knighthood, and has the title of a soldier above the rank of public officer.

In the Qin Dynasty, according to the military merit system after the Shang Dynasty reform, if you want to become a public soldier, you have to kill a soldier.

Once successful, then you can get land, sisters, houses, and money.

However, armor is not so easy to kill.

A real armorer has servants around him, and if he wants to kill a armorer, he must first kill the servants around him.

Even in the composition of the Son of Heaven's chariot, there are only three armor soldiers, and the other seventy-two are ordinary infantrymen.

Gongsun He looked at the bright moon hanging in the sky, blinked his eyes, and sighed long, "If the Great Han Armor is enough, why worry about the Huns?" ”

"Since Zhong Qing's subordinates are back, then I should also inform him and let him prepare early."

"Stained, fake will, I don't know how that group of guys in Longxi will plan. It's not been a day or two that they want to suppress their relatives. ”

Muttering, Gongsun He's figure disappeared into the vast night.
