Chapter 9: Three Hundred to One Thousand
The moment he heard this, Li Xin understood that Zhou Fang and the others were not impulsive, and with these words, he suddenly remembered. Indeed, the ninth year of Yonghe is a rather bad year for Fu Qin. Because in this year, there were first rebellions in Guanzhong, and they were all around Chang'an, which seriously threatened the ruling core of Fu Qin.
In addition, Qianliang in the west also came to attack the area of Lanzhou, and Fu Qin's army was defeated, and the enemy Chi State in Longxi suffered another defeat. In short, the Fu Qin regime at this time, as Zhou Tong said, was in a state of self-care, and was busy sending troops to extinguish fires everywhere. From this point of view, there really couldn't be a better time than this.
"Is Fu Qin's Sikong Zhang Yu dead? Chiyang, Sizhu, Bacheng, and Juxian all have incidents? Li Xin asked. These things should have been thought of a long time ago, but the problem is that after two months of training, he was so tired that he didn't remember anything at all.
A simple uprising, he naturally won't remember, but the problem is that this uprising is not long after, that is, next year, it will be the Huanwen Northern Expedition. In the history of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, if you say that you don't know Huan Wen, it can basically be said that you don't know this period of history at all, and Huan Wen's Northern Expedition was recruited by the letters written by the leaders of the local clans who caused the incident.
"Where did you learn about this? We've just gotten the news! Hearing this, Zhou Tong hadn't answered yet, but a few of the Zhou Fang next to him just heard it, and couldn't help but be surprised.
"Explain it later! Now that Fu Qin's elite army is not in Guanzhong, it is indeed the best time for us, since we have decided to do a big job, we have to hurry up, let's go! Li Xin sighed, this is not easy to explain, he can't say that he is a person who travels through and is familiar with the direction of history! After a long silence, he had no choice but to say seriously.
The military situation is urgent, and although Zhou Fang is not professional, they also understand this truth, so they don't ask more. Zhou Fang and some people stayed on the mountain, after all, this is a base area! You can't lose it, and if the siege fails, you still have a way out. Therefore, the team was led by Wu Heng and Zhou Tong, as well as Li Erhei, and everyone ran down the mountain.
A group of outcasts dressed in tatters, holding all kinds of weapons in their hands, and not even a single armored soldier, went directly to the county seat to kill. In the crowd, there were two large simple ladders used to climb the city, and other siege equipment was gone.
In the eyes of many people, such a scene will only be ridiculous. But in fact, judging from the history of China, how many peasant uprisings and how many dynasties have risen and fallen have been set off by such a group of people.
Li Xin followed behind Zhou Tong and didn't speak again along the way. Huayin County is not particularly far from Huashan, however, the Huayin County at this time and the later Huayin County are not in the same place, but in the northeast of Huayin County in the later years, close to the Wei River, should be near the Jingshicang site in the later generations.
This distance is not difficult for everyone, after going down the mountain, along the foot of the mountain to the northeast, and then after crossing the long stream water and sand canal water, soon, everyone has seen the county seat from a distance. By this time, it was almost evening.
At the first glance of this county, Li Xin was a little disappointed, because this county seat was a little out of step with the city he imagined. The whole city is not very large, the circumference is only a few miles, the key is to say that this wall is less than five meters high, it is really not a male city. Of course, starting from his current role, this is a good thing, which means that the difficulty of tackling the problem is greatly reduced.
When they were still two or three miles away from the county seat, everyone lurked and slowly approached the city wall, and their target was where the west gate was. Fortunately, these people didn't have a hot brain, so they rushed over directly, otherwise, it would really be similar to looking for death.
Perhaps because of the recent turmoil in the gates, the city gate is already closed even when it is not yet dark. The setting sun shines on this city wall, making this somewhat dilapidated city wall seem a little vicissitudes, the world is full of disputes, and the county town does not know how many times it has changed hands, and it is too late to repair it well.
"You have to find a way to capture the city gate, so that you can reduce the loss and capture the county as quickly as possible!" Looking at that city, Li Xin pondered in his heart. Although this city wall is not very high, it is not easy to climb up, the key is that the south of this city is backed by a mountain, and it is surrounded by cliffs on three sides, which is really an easy place to defend and difficult to attack.
Moreover, there were more than a dozen soldiers patrolling back and forth on the wall. In this county seat, there are only two directions outside the city where people can stand, the west and east of the city. The east of the city leads to Tongguan, where it is a narrow laneway, while the west of the city is open, which is where he is now.
"Whew!" A soft sound pulled Li Xin's thoughts back all of a sudden, this voice was too familiar, it was the sound of archery. Puzzled, he looked around, but saw Li Erhei not far away just putting down the bow in his hand at this time. The next moment, a miserable scream came from the opposite city wall, and a Qin soldier fell directly from above.
At this time, there was still a distance of nearly 100 meters between them and the city wall, and at such a distance, they could shoot the people in the city with an arrow, and only people like Li Erhei could use a strong bow, but ordinary people couldn't do it.
"What is he trying to do? I don't know if this will startle the snake and make the people in the city take precautions? Seeing this scene, Li Xin was a little dumbfounded, and he couldn't wait to run over and knock Li Erhei's head hard. And just as he thought, after a soldier died, the Qin soldiers on the city wall were suddenly in chaos, and then, there was a chaotic sound in the county, and the other party had obviously moved.
"Brothers, follow me to capture Huayin City, rush!" What surprised Li Xin was not over, after this arrow flew out, Wu Heng suddenly jumped up, shouted, and then raised his sword and rushed towards the city.
"Are these people crazy? Just go up and attack the city? Li Xin looked blankly at the people in front of him who were rushing towards the city with ladders, and there was only one thought left in his heart, which was of course not much different from the scene of the siege of the city in his imagination. But that's for the big army, when the number of people is so small, it seems that it shouldn't be like this.
At this moment, he suddenly felt that the Wanderer Army really didn't know how to fight at all, or did it not have a good leader? Otherwise, these people are used to guarding the mountain in the past, and they have no experience in attacking the city at all, and they have seen the methods and methods of those Qin soldiers attacking the mountain, so they have also learned at this time.
"What to do? ...... Forget it, let's kill them first, I can't let them fight, I'll stay here alone in a daze! At this time, Li Xin was at a loss in his heart, and he didn't know what to do.
However, just as he was thinking about these things, something happened that surprised him even more, the gates of the city, which had been closed, suddenly opened. Then, a group of Qin soldiers rushed out from inside.
But the appearance of the other party is much more orderly than that of the homeless army, and the other party actually has a few horsebacks, so I think it should be a general. It's just that the number of people on the other side doesn't seem to be particularly large, at least, it's far worse than on their own side.
This time, Li Xin couldn't understand it even more, according to common sense, shouldn't the other party strengthen their vigilance and guard the city at this time? And after the other party left the city, the city gate behind him was immediately closed. The two sides met under the city, and without any words, they rushed directly towards each other.
"Three hundred people dare to come at us and more than a thousand of us, these thieves really don't take us seriously! Brothers, kill all these thieves first, and then go to attack the city! Seeing this scene, Zhou Tong couldn't help sneering, shouted, and killed the other party without looking back.
Hearing this, Li Xin suddenly understood, obviously, his group of exiled people was not taken into account by the other party. Perhaps, in their opinion, these people with knives, guns, sticks, and all kinds of wooden shields are just those people who are bullied and killed by them at will on weekdays, and there is nothing to be afraid of at all.
Although it is said that the Qin soldiers themselves are not much better, and their clothes are different, at least, the weapons in their hands are relatively unified, and they are also more sophisticated, and the officials have horses and armor.
Coupled with the fierce habit of being a Hu person, he is not good at defending the city but is good at attacking, after seeing this group of self-defeating rebels in front of him, according to their thinking habits, there is indeed nothing more direct than rushing out and slashing and slashing a fight.
When the two sides collide together, the results seem to prove this even more. These Hu people are all extremely fierce, and their height and physical strength are much better than those of the villagers present, after all, they eat better!
While shouting and scolding the words he didn't understand, he waved the knife and gun in his hand and slashed at him. Obviously, there are only 300 people on the other side, and there are more than 1,000 people on his side, but at this moment, it looks like they have fallen one by one.
The only thing that is similar is that both sides are in high spirits and have not flinched at all. After all, these villagers present are not new recruits who have gone to the battlefield for the first time, and in the process of guarding the mountain, they have already seen the fierceness of the Qin soldiers and seen blood. At this moment, when he heard the shout, he threw the siege ladder to the side and killed it.
