Wei Qing and Gongsun He moved to the east gate of Yuyang City, only to know that the 10,000 or so Xiongnu who rushed into the city had been completely eliminated by the Han army in the city.

Then the Hun cavalry who got off the war horse rushed to the city gate one after another.

At first, the Huns were a little stupid, but later they knew that they were slowly pushing the corpses in front of them forward.

But the arrows of the three-bow bed crossbow were enough to pierce the wall they had piled up with corpses.

The less lethal it is, the less it is.

However, Wei Qing was a little worried that the Huns would find the steel plates buried in the soil.

It was normal for him to be worried, but the Huns had actually found out a long time ago, but they didn't take it seriously at all.

I didn't think about how the steel plate was so hot.

I have to say that they did play a role in pushing the corpses forward.

They are all about to walk out of the city gate.

"General, do you want to pull the steel plate apart?"

Gongsun He was a little worried that the Huns had really occupied the city gate, and then rushed in a steady stream.

At that time, the Han army will be passive.

"No, let the Huns see the strength of the Han footmen.

The three-bow bed crossbow can also be withdrawn, and a city gate cave sends an army of 5,000 people to maintain a good formation, and not a single Hun soldier is allowed to let them out.

When the city gate cave was full of the corpses of the Huns, we pulled away the steel plates, and these corpses were directly burned to avoid causing plague in the army. ”

"Whoa!"

The infantry of the Han army is in the same vein as the armor soldiers of the Great Qin.

Since the Qin and Han dynasties, it has been difficult to see a rigorous army again.

When the four military formations moved to the gate of Yuyang City, the three-bow bed crossbow also retreated.

Shields blocked the gates of the city.

Then the Han soldiers behind the shield were still under the shield to help the Hun army clean up those corpses.

The reason why the Han army wanted to clean up the corpses in front of the shield was to be able to fight the Huns earlier.

Hundreds of bodies were quickly cleaned up.

The long knives of the Huns constantly slashed at the shields of the Han soldiers, but they had no effect at all.

There were clever Huns who stuck their knives in the gaps in their shields.

As a result, the Han infantry slightly overlapped their shields, and the weapons in the hands of the Hun soldiers fell off.

The Han soldiers behind the shield constantly attacked the heels and legs of the Huns from under the shields with their halberd spears.

If the Xiongnu soldiers did not pay attention, they might be dragged into the Han army's military formation.

One-sided slaughter, that is.

When Ajudo saw it, he sneered.

He didn't care about the loss at the city gate, as long as the three-bow bed crossbow was removed.

"Send someone to cut off the iron ropes for me."

"Yes, big boss!"

Ajudo didn't want to think about it, Wei Qing was not a fool, how could he give him the opportunity to cut those steel cables.

Most of the weapons used by the Huns were scimitars made of wrought iron, or bronze weapons left over from a hundred years ago.

It is similar to the weapons of those large armies of the Qin State that fled to the Baiyue region.

And these iron cables are all made of stainless steel by Wei Qing to find a blacksmith.

The Huns' weapons were dulled after a few cuts, and only scratches appeared on the cables.

This is a technological grinding.

It seems that at the end of the Qing Dynasty, foreigners invaded the Qing Dynasty, and the Qing soldiers could only fight with foreign guns and cannons with swords.

Ajudo soon discovered the reality before him.

It took at least two quarters of an hour for one rope to be cut, and two hours had passed for all eight ropes to be cut.

In two hours, the Huns must not die more than 100,000 people?

"Find hemp ropes, wrap them around the horses, and then wrap them around the iron ropes."

"How many horses do you need?"

"The more the merrier!"

Can't I pull out your ropes if I keep chopping?

Ajudo was also ruthless in his heart to think so.

If Wei Qing knew that he would die of laughter, if you could pull the iron rope out, then what would I do with those steel rods.

In fact, during this period of time, the casualties of the Han army were not small.

The number of crossbowmen on the city walls was reduced by nearly 5,000.

This is also the result of several captains temporarily letting the sword and shield hand on the city wall to raise a shield to protect it.

If you really let the two sides shoot at each other.

It would be nice to be able to maintain a battle loss ratio of three to one.

But now there is a five-to-one battle loss ratio, and it is still pulling apart.

The dizzy Yi Zhixian is now almost responsive to Ajudo's request.

He made up his mind to attack Yuyang City today.

He couldn't stand the foolish look from the Evil King.

If there is no hemp rope, the camp account will be dismantled directly, and Ajudo's request will be satisfied.

But Ajudo's method is a stupid solution after all.

If Zhang Yuan was here, he would be able to think of a way to solve the dilemma in front of him.

There is no need for anything else, just like Ajudo's, a war horse with hemp rope or linen cloth.

Ajudo tossed for half an hour and couldn't pull out the eight iron cables, although they were loose, the war horse still couldn't get through.

"General, the Huns have killed thousands of people at the city gate in half an hour, what do they think of people?"

Gongsun He looked puzzled, this is not like the style of the Huns.

The military ministers had lost 20,000 cavalry before, and they were able to choose to avoid the battle, and it was his crown prince Yu Dan who was captured by Zhang Yuan at that time.

The same is true of the Battle of Mayi at the beginning.

The military minister did not have the slightest idea of being tough with the Han army.

He knew that positional warfare was not something the Hun army was good at.

From Mao Dun Shan Yu to Lao Shangshan Yu and the military minister Shan Yu, he never thought of being tough with the Han army.

Even if Mao Dunshan Yu besieged Liu Bang of Han Gaozu in Baishan Mountain at that time, he did not have the impulse to start a war.

It's just a bunch.

originally wanted to wait for the Han army to run out of ammunition before attacking, but it turned out that Mao Dun was a man who listened to his wife.

"There must have been something we didn't expect within the Huns, and now the people who command these armies are definitely not military ministers."

Wei Qing reacted quickly after being reminded by Gongsun Heyi.

"What then?"

"Cold salad! This man is so stupid, it's a good thing for us! ”

Wei Qing was still thinking about the combat opportunity that Zhang Yuan had been looking for before, and it was actually placed in front of him.

He had deduced countless times with Zhang Yuan, but he never thought that the Xiongnu army would take the initiative to fight a positional battle with the Han army.

As a result, what they had been looking forward to came to life.

Wei Qing thought that if he didn't have only 200,000 troops, but 500,000 troops, he wouldn't sleep for dozens of hours, and he would leave all the Huns' cavalry under Yuyang City.

"Could it be that the Hun Dadan Yu military minister died?"

"It's not impossible, pass the order down and capture some Hun prisoners alive!"

"No."

Gongsun He and Wei Qing were both excited.

The military minister is already old, and it is not impossible to pass away.

Now at this time, Wei Qing wanted to catch the Hun prisoners It was not too simple, and in less than a quarter of an hour, Wei Qing knelt in front of more than 20 Hun prisoners.

"I ask you, who is your big order now?"

Wei Qing shouted.

Some of the Huns could not understand Chinese, but some could understand it, but they did not answer Wei Qing's question for a while.

"If you don't answer, you still have a chance to live, but now it's gone."

Both the Han and the Huns were afraid of death.

Who wouldn't want to live well if they could live forever?

"I said, I said, our big order is Yi Zhi oblique big single Yu!" 120

"Zuoxian Wang Yizhi oblique?"

"The military minister Da Dan Yu died of illness in the winter, and King Zuo Xian inherited the throne of Da Dan Yu."

Wei Qing nodded.

No wonder the current Hun cavalry is as stupid as it is a mistake.

And Wei Qing also understood why Yi Zhixian was so impulsive.

I have just ascended to the position of Da Dan Yu, and my position has not yet been secured, and I need some merit to prove that I can do it.

At the beginning, Liu Wu, the king of Liang Xiao, resisted the army of the Seven Kingdoms so hard, not just to prove himself.

The succession of a brother to the position of a brother is no more orthodox than that of a son to the father.

"Lock up these Huns first, and wait until the battle is over to open the city gate and send them out."

It is true that the Han and Hungarians rarely killed prisoners.

Wei Qing also didn't want to leave these Huns to eat their military rations in Yuyang City.

In the past, Li Guang once chatted with a celestial official of the Han Dynasty.

complained that with his qualifications, he should have been made a marquis a long time ago, and most of the people in the army who were marquis were not as capable as him.

Tianguan Wang Shuo said that Li Guang deceived the Qiang people when he was young and killed more than 800 prisoners of war at one time.

This shows how great the impact of killing prisoners of war is.

After Huo Qubing made King Hugh Tu surrender at the beginning, even if King Hutu repented halfway, he did not have the intention of killing the prisoners of war.

At this time, people always believe that people are watching the sky, and their character must be correct, so that they can go smoothly in the second half of their lives.

These Xiongnu captives were given a chance to live, and Wei Qing and Gongsun He also received extremely important information.

The death of a military minister, the combat strength of the Hun army was at least one-tenth less.

"General, the fire under the steel plate is extinguished!"

Wei Qingzheng was happy, and a piece of news pulled him back to reality.

"What? How can it be extinguished? ”

"The blood of the Huns was all shed into the pit, and no one was watching under them, so they were destroyed."

Because the temperature was too high, Wei Qing just asked people to go in every half an hour to add firewood.

As a result, such an oolong came out.

"Keep the fire going!"

"General, unless the steel plate is also removed, the fire will not rise."

The soldier wanted to explain, but he didn't know how.

When the water in the blood evaporated, the blood scab left behind stuck to a piece, blocking the connection between the steel plate and the hole.

The lack of air circulation in the cave was the main reason for the fire.

"General, actually put some tung oil in the hole.

When the steel plate is opened, put a few rockets inside, and the fire will start again. ”

Gongsun He proposed a good solution to Wei Qing.

"Yes, you send some men to dig up the ashes and pour the tung oil into the hole."

"Whoa!"

The fire was extinguished only a small episode, but fortunately it did not hinder the battle.

It didn't take long for the shouts of killing at the city gate to weaken.

The loss of the Xiongnu made Yi Zhixian sober up, and if he continued like this, he was afraid that he really couldn't control his army.

"The Huns are retreating?"

"Seems like so."

"Hey, I thought they would be able to hold on a little longer."

Wei Qing and Gongsun He went up to the city wall and saw hundreds of thousands of Hun cavalry retreating like the ebb tide of the sea.

The ground was full of corpses, and blood stained the roots of the walls of Yuyang City.

The four gates are now more like a morgue.

"The order went down, and all the corpses in the city were cremated collectively.

The carcasses of those horses were pulled to clean up and make food. ”

Although the horse meat is very sour, Wei Qing can't help it.

If you can solve a day's ration, you can solve a day's ration, and it's meat anyway.

The people in Yuyang City have never eaten a single bite of meat since they were born.

Ninety-nine percent of the soldiers will not dislike horse meat sour, and Wei Qing has only seen one person who really dislikes it, and that is Zhang Yuan.

Liu Che probably didn't even know that horse meat was sour, just like people in later generations liked dogs so they didn't eat dog meat.

The horses raised by Liu Che are all treasures, more important than the living, and no one dares to eat them when they die.

A few people who are qualified to dislike horse meat are reluctant to kill horses, so Wei Qing has only seen Zhang Yuan who dislikes him.

When the Huns all withdrew, the gate of Yuyang City was not closed.

Gongsun He arranged for someone to cut off the heads of the Huns, and made a Jingguan outside the city gate.

It was used to mock the Huns.

Wei Qing thought about it and let Gongsun He do this, he had to let the Huns be ruthless to them, and now if they withdraw Zhang Yuan, it will be in vain.

When it was night, Wei Qing asked the people below to start reporting the battle damage to him.

"General, today our army has more than 8,000 killed and more than 3,000 wounded, but basically they are still fighting power."

The more than 3,000 wounded were shot in the arm or thigh by bows and arrows, and the arrows were pulled out and bandaged.

That's how it is to shoot, otherwise you will hit the vital point directly, or you won't die from serious injuries if you shoot crooked.

Unless he was hit by a lot of arrows and bled too much and died.

"What about the losses of the Huns?"

"There are more than 20,000 Huns who died in the city alone, and I am afraid that there are even more corpses outside the city, and the general estimates that the total number of Huns is no less than 50,000 in today's battle."

After Wei Qing listened, a smile appeared on his face.

Six to one battle damage.

In a few more battles, the number of Han troops in Yuyang City will be equal to the number of Xiongnu troops outside the city.

"Okay, good, let the soldiers in the army eat and drink well, and have a good night's rest."

"No."

Compared with the cheerful atmosphere in Yuyang City, the atmosphere on the Xiongnu's side is about to freeze.

Izuku looked at Ajuto, who was kneeling below, with a dark face.

They counted 5,000 Han troops killed and 55,000 Xiongnu killed.

Some of the Han soldiers who died in the city could not be counted by the Xiongnu at all.

As a result, Wei Qing's side calculated six to one, and Yi Zhixie's side counted eleven to one.

How could he not be angry?

"Drag Ajudo down and kill him!"

Izumi slanted out a wild roar, trying to prove that it wasn't his fault, but Ajudo's.

The Evil King didn't know why, and suddenly at this time, he moved his heart to cherish his talents.

Today, Ajudo's behavior on the battlefield is still remarkable, and he is many times stronger than the abrupt bone under his hand.

"Wait, it's better to be angry than to take your anger out on someone who has nothing to do with it.

Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, why should Da Dan be so angry. ”

Independent?

Yi Zhi looked at the Evil King obliquely, and directly couldn't help but ask.

"It has nothing to do with him, Evil King, do you mean that I caused so many losses because of me?"

The Evil King really wanted to nod and say yes.

But he thought that he had only 100,000 troops by his side, and this was still the king's tent of Yi Zhixian, so he really forced this madman to be anxious and didn't know what would happen.

"The decision was made by the three of us together, and Wu Huan Da Shan Yu and I didn't stop you at that time.

So don't be angry anymore, Wei Qing is afraid that I can't wait to see your current appearance.

Now think about what we should do and what we should do. ”

"The Evil King is right, don't be angry with the people below."

At this time, the Evil King gave Ajuto a look.

"Why don't you hurry up and get out, a few of us are talking about things, do you want to hear it too?"

"I'll go down now."

Ajudo understood and immediately got up from the ground and ran out.
