Outside the Yanmen Pass, black clouds overwhelmed the city.

The blood-colored remnant sun filled the sky, and the rolling yellow sand seemed to herald the arrival of a great war.

At this time, the Yanmen Gate was closed and there were many flags, covered with wooden boulders, bows, arrows, knives and guns...

Ascending high and looking into the distance, the Xianbei cavalry was already approaching.

Look at the posture, it looks like it's going to attack the city!

Running out of grain? This is the problem that Xianbei is currently experiencing.

The Hu people made a living by plundering...

They did not rely on supplies from the rear for food and herbs, and most of them were hidden in villages near Yanmen County.

But this time, in the way of clearing the wilderness, Han Ting was stunned that he did not leave the Xianbei people with the slightest grain.

Even if it's farther away...

A little further afield...

As long as it is a village, it is empty.

I don't know, is it because the Hu people have gone south to loot too often in recent years? Or this time, Hanting made all the preparations.

The horn sounds...

Besiege...

The Xianbei people had no choice, only by breaking through the Yanmen Gate could they get food, and they could continue to wreak havoc on the people of the Han Dynasty like lions entering the flock.

"Knock knock..."

The Xianbei Hu cavalry hundred cavalry phalanx was lined up, and the two rows of cowhide drums of the Chinese army were rumbling.

Sitting in the chariot is the king who is worshiped as a god by the Xianbei people - Tanshi Huai.

He stood up, as if he was looking at his prey, and looked at Yanmen Pass, as if five years ago, the situation of Xianbei people strangling 100,000 Han troops was about to resurface.

"Enter!"

With an order, the Xianbei army swept the horses' hooves...

Da Da, a uniform sound, resounding through the sky.

Together, there are ladders, there are siege machines...

Years of Han-Hu warfare have already taught the Hu people the method of attacking the city and pulling out the village, compared to the siege equipment made of gourd painting scoops, even if the power is lacking, at this moment for Yanmen, it is adding a lot of trouble. 、

……

"What about reinforcements? Haven't you come yet? ”

The gate of the wild goose was closed, and Taishou Ding Yuan asked the deputy general beside him urgently...

The crowd was silent...

Two bamboo slips a day asking for help, 700 miles were rushed to Luoyang, Kyoto, it has been a month, where are the reinforcements.

Now facing the Xianbei offensive, it is a challenge, but also an opportunity!

When the Hu people attacked the city, it was the time when they broke away from their horses.

It is also the time when their combat effectiveness is the weakest, but at this moment, a team of more than 10,000 energetic Hanting cavalry suddenly kills from Yanmen, and the consequence is definitely a complete victory!

But now?

Alone, alone...

The morale of the Yanmen Pass has almost dropped to the bottom...

"Father-in-law? Please let me lead my army out of the city to meet the enemy..."

A red-robed warrior will surrender his hand and ask for his life...

His name is Lu Bu, the word Fengxian, and he is the righteous son of Ding Yuan, the Taishou of Yanmen.

"General! I would like to assist General Lu from the side. ”

This time it was a silver-armored young general who spoke a young general, he was a native of Yanmen County, and he had lived in the environment of the Hu people since he was a child, and he had trained a skilled bow horse.

His name, Zhang Liao, Zhang Wenyuan.

In the face of the surging offensive of the Xianbei people, if they only defend the city pass, the morale of the three armies will be low, and if there is a mistake, Yanmen will not be guaranteed...

Different from Lu Bu's bravery...

Zhang Liao has been familiar with the art of war since he was a child, and he knows that this battle is unavoidable, and only by leading the elite cavalry to kill and attack the vanguard of the Hu people with the momentum of the wind and clouds, and raise some morale for the defenders of Yanmen, can there be room for turnaround.

Call...

Ding Yuan frowned, he must be beaten, but... He has unspeakable difficulties.

There aren't many horses left in the defenders who can still fight!

For a long time, the imperial court did not change the military resources for the border guards, let alone expensive war horses.

Even if Lu Bu and Zhang Liao are brave, if they only lead more than 1,000 horsemen and block the army of tens of thousands of Hu, it is tantamount to a sheep entering the tiger's mouth.

"No way!" Ding Yuan didn't explain that much. "Defend the city, wait... Help! ”

Saying the word "to be helped", he himself has no confidence...

If there were reinforcements, they should have come a long time ago, how could they have been delayed to this day.

Now, the only thing we can do is to do our best, listen to the destiny of heaven, and pray for this Yanmen natural danger to create a miracle.

……

"Report, there is a fine work that opens the gate of Yanmen! The Xianbei people have come in..."

Just when everyone is gathering momentum...

The news came like a bolt from the blue.

Yanmen closes the gate? Opened? This...

Ding Yuan's cheeks suddenly became as white as paper, and he found for the first time that the current Xianbei Hu Cavalry, they were growing, they were getting stronger.

They are no longer the Hu tribe that only relied on their bravery to fight, they actually bought the guards and installed them carefully!

In this regard, Ding Yuan was unexpected!

He wouldn't even know...

Sandalwood locust, what this Xianbei name means in the tribe.

The forty-year-old Tanshi Huai was brave and strategic, and after becoming the leader, it took only ten years to unify the Xianbei tribes.

the establishment of a royal court in Danhan Mountain;

plundered the Han Dynasty in the south, resisted Ding Ling in the north, repelled Fuyu in the east, and attacked Gongsun in the west, completely occupying the homeland of the original Xiongnu;

It even once attacked the Wa Kingdom, reaching more than 14,000 miles from east to west, and more than 7,000 miles from north to south, and the territory area was close to that of the Han Dynasty.

Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty was very worried about this, and wanted to crown him as the king several times, asking for peace, but Tanshi Huai insisted on not accepting it, and stepped up the invasion of the Han Dynasty...

Five years ago, he was the one who buried 100,000 Han family sons outside Yanmen Pass!

It is not too much to say that he is a wise and brave person who has only produced one in hundreds of years in the Hu tribe.

It's like...

Ding Yuan underestimated this Xianbei king.

It seems that the reason why he has been in Yanmen for a month is not because he is afraid of the natural dangers of Yanmen, but because he is fornicating with the defenders and burying meticulous work.

"It's over..."

A touch of sadness flashed on Ding Yuan's expression...

He knew that once the advantage of Yanmen was lost, whether it was the street battle in Yanmen County or the charge of the cavalry on the plain, he had no chance of winning at all.

"Father-in-law, the boy is going to take back the city gates!" Lu Bu raised Fang Tian's halberd, and without waiting for Ding Yuan to agree, he hurried towards the city tower.

"The last general will help General Lu!" Zhang Liao bowed his hand and lifted the crescent halberd, majestic and fearless.

He has lived here since he was a child, and behind him are his father and fellow villagers...

As long as he is there, Huma will never be allowed to step through the Yanmen!

The sound of "stomping" footsteps sounded one after another...

Under the call of Lu Bu and Zhang Liao, countless Han men stood up their backbones, raised their halberds, and rushed down the city tower, they wanted to recapture the city gate.

"Alas..."Ding Yuan couldn't help shaking his head, from top to bottom, he watched the Hu people pour into Yanmen like wolves into a flock, and his heart was cool!

Resist, yes, you should resist.

But the rich combat experience told Ding Yuan that this was useless, Yanmen had been lost, and the entire Han Dynasty would be exposed to the iron cavalry of the Hu people...

"Is this a catastrophe that God wants to give to the big man?"

Ding Yuan's brows furrowed, he looked at the sky, after this battle, he might be a sinner!

But at this moment...

"Da Da Da..."

It seems that in the distance, there is the sound of vigorous horses' hooves...

Isn't that right?

The Hu people have already dismounted from the war horse when they attacked the city? Street battles are mainly infantry battles, where does the sound of horses' hooves come from?

Looking for prestige, I saw the rear of the Xianbei camp, flying sand and rocks, and dust and smoke all over the sky...

A cavalry contingent of tens of thousands rushed like a mountain roaring and a tsunami.

"Reinforcements? Could it be reinforcements..."

Ding Yuan rubbed his eyes, but saw that someone in the cavalry was holding a battle flag, and a huge "Han" character on the battle flag was fluttering in the wind...

"It's really reinforcements, I didn't expect that the reinforcements, the reinforcements actually bypassed Yanmen and launched a charge from behind the Hu people!"

Bypass the Yanmen...

This is an additional journey of at least 300 miles, which in ancient times required two days and one night for even a rapid march.

But on the contrary, Huangfu Song's use of soldiers is like this, he is familiar with the "Art of War" by heart, and he has always liked to win by surprise.

What about an extra 300 miles?

In fact, as early as a day ago, Pan Feng, who was dispatched by Huangfu Song, led the 5,000 vanguard cavalry was already in place!

They also had a full meal and a good night's sleep...

Now, I am full of energy, just waiting for the big break Hu Bing!

"Huh? What's going on? ”

Ding Yuan was surprised to find that it seemed that this Hanting cavalry was a little different from ordinary cavalry.

They are steady one by one, and their hands are powerful, whether they are wielding a halberd or bending a bow and arrow, they can do it in one go.

Judging by the steadiness of their horses, even the most valiant knights at the border pass are beyond their reach!

Call... Ding Yuan took a deep breath.

Is this the Northern Army of the Han Court?

Which one is this? The Northern Army of the Han Court, which lives deep in the interior and has been absent from the battle for a long time?

When? The cavalry of the Northern Army of the Han Court? Become so courageous? When did they become so proficient in riding?
