"Folks, what do you want?" Liao Hua asked. "General, although we can't fight the Huns, we can help you carry the rolling wood and stones, and we can also deliver you food! Adults, let us help! When the city is broken, our people will be finished. An old man said. Liao Hua was very moved and said, "Thank you, folks." ”

In fact, not only the West Gate, but also the four city gates of Yunyang are like this. Military-civilian cooperation was in full swing to strengthen the city defense and carry all kinds of equipment to defend the city. At this time, everyone only felt that the earth was trembling.

Tart tart tart!

Outside the West City Gate, the sky was full of smoke and dust, and only the rumbling sound of horses' hooves could be heard, which resounded. Slowly, a black line appeared on the horizon in the distance. Later, I saw thousands of iron horsemen coming from far and near, and the morale of people was like dragons and horses, like tigers.

Although Liao Hua was already prepared in his heart, it was inevitable that he would be excited in his heart, Liao Hua was afraid that his men would be cowardly before fighting, so he shouted: "Brothers, cheer up, the Huns' cavalry is powerful, but they can't attack the city, brothers rest assured!" As long as everyone dares to fight, there is nothing to be afraid of. ”

"All prepare for war, there must be no mistakes, and those who violate the order will be decided." Liao Hua shouted. "No!" The generals responded with a loud voice.

"Ignite the oil!" Liao Hua shouted again. "No!" A special soldier answered the call and lit a fire.

Outside the west city gate, 5,000 Hun cavalrymen shouted horses neighing, and the momentum was huge. Before the battle, Qiu Linhu said: "I can't imagine that there are still people among the Han people who dare to resist." Go and give me my commandments, that they may open the city and surrender it, and give us all the women and money, and I will spare them from death, and let them be my slaves and give me horses. Ha ha! Qiu Linhu said to one of the heralds.

When the man had received the order, he rode to the bottom of the city wall and said, "The chief of my house has said, if you give all your money and women to our chief, our chief will spare your lives and let you be slaves and horses for my chief." Ha ha! ”

As soon as these words came out, the soldiers and horses on the entire city wall, and the people were all angry. At this time, the Xiongnu herald was a hundred paces away from the city wall.

"Bring a bow and arrows!" Liao Hua said. "Captain! To give! An archer beside Liao Hua handed the bow and arrow to Liao Hua.

Liao Hua raised his breath and held the bow in his left hand, and pulled the bow with his right hand, the bow opened like a full moon, and a sound of breaking the air sounded.

Brush! Burst!

An arrow hit the front heart of the Huns, the Huns shook twice, fell off the horse, died of anger, and the horse turned around and ran away after being frightened.

Liao Hua did not use words to fight back, but used practical actions to respond to the ferocity and arrogance of the Huns.

Rumble!

All the soldiers in Ximen were highly motivated, Liao Hua smiled, because Qiu Linhu helped Liao Hua improve his morale, Liao Hua was worried about his own lack of morale, but now haha! God help me.

Those who are happy are angry, Liao Hua is happy here, and Qiu Linhu is angry with a red face and a thick neck!

"Herald, the first thousand-man team to attack the city." Qiu Linhu shouted. "Yes! Chieftains! A commander replied. This commander of a thousand is named Suddenly Wolf, I saw that this man was eight feet tall, wearing a leather skirt under his crotch, shirtless, and wearing feathers on his head, and after howling for a long time, he shouted: "Thousand people, rush, the women in the city are waiting for us?" ”

The Huns didn't know anything else, but they knew that the Han woman, Shui Ling, rushed forward howling when they heard their leader suddenly say that the wolf said women. "Blow the trumpet!" Qiu Linhu said.

Woo...... Woo...... Woo...... Woo......

A thousand Huns rushed towards the west gate of Yunyang County, which is a small county, like wild horses on the loose. The height of the city is only two zhang five, and the width is one zhang two. It is considered a low city wall, and there is no moat. But fortunately, the Huns were really not good at attacking cities, they just took the ladder and dismounted to attack the west gate.

Liao Hua looked at it, although the Huns were very strong, but after Liao Hua saw the situation clearly, he had a bottom in his heart, and when the Huns were still one hundred and fifty steps away from the city wall, Liao Hua shouted: "Archers prepare!" "Two hundred archers drew their bows and aimed their arrows at the enemy.

When the Huns reached a hundred steps, Liao Hua shouted again: "Release!" Then Liao Hua shouted again: "All archers! Shoot your enemies freely! ”

It must be said that the Huns had no experience in attacking the city, and they did not take Liaohua in their eyes, so after a few rounds of arrow rain, more than 100 people were killed and wounded. However, it can also be said that Liaohua has too few archers, otherwise these few rounds of arrow rain are enough to make the enemy die half before he gets close to the city wall.

Even if more than 100 people were killed or wounded, the commander of the Huns didn't do it anymore, where did he suffer this loss!

"Kill the warriors! If you don't want a woman, after storming the city today, you will be allowed to rob for a day. Everything you grab is yours. Kill! Warriors. Suddenly the wolf shouted. This is a taboo for soldiers, a thousand iron horsemen dismount and attack the city.

At this time, the Huns had already arrived under the city, and some Huns had already erected the ladder.

"Brothers, roll the wood and prepare for it! Throw! Liao Hua shouted, and then Liao Hua shouted: "The archer continues to release arrows!" ”

It's raining down arrows and rocks all over the sky! However, the bloodiness of the Huns had been completely stimulated, and they did not care about the dead and wounded companions around them, and continued to attack over the corpses. After all, there are too few people and horses in Liaohua, and there are only a limited number of archers.

At this time, a small number of the Huns had already attacked the city wall. "Archers retreat! The pikemen advance. Attack! Liao Hua shouted.

After receiving the order, the archers collected their arrows and retreated, and hundreds of pikemen marched forward in order, forming a gun formation and hundreds of spears stabbing out together. In an instant, the offensive of the Huns was suppressed.

By this time, the first thousand-man squad had already suffered more than 300 casualties. This number is huge for the Huns, and this is how long it took to attack.

The walls are repeated over and over again. When the enemy came up to the wall, Liao Hua ordered the spearmen to come forward. When the enemy was attacked, he ordered the archers to attack, and, from time to time, threw a rolling log and stone down.

Liao Hua saw that it was almost there, so he ordered: "Pour hot oil." "The soldier, who has a special person who pours oil, carefully pours the hot oil down.

Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!

The ghosts below cried and howled, and the sound of wailing resounded. "Throw torches!" Liao Hua shouted again.

Rumble!

There are already rolling logs underneath. Add hot oil to this point of fire. With a bang, it became a sea of fire. At this time, the Huns had to withdraw if they did not withdraw.

"Let the first thousand, pull down." Qiu Linhu shouted. As soon as the trumpet of retreat sounded, the surviving Huns all ran back with their heads in their hands.

"Suddenly wolf, how many people have been killed or wounded?" Qiu Linhu asked. "Chief, nearly five hundred dead and wounded. It's really ......" Suddenly the wolf wanted to complain after speaking, but then he didn't say it after thinking about it.

At this time, the fire under the city walls had to burn for a while. Liao Hua was given a chance to breathe, and Liao Hua shouted, "Brothers, see it! What is there to fear about the Huns, everyone hurry up and prepare to roll wood and stones, arrows, and burn the oil again. ”

The common people also helped Liao Hua and others to get busy. Let's put it this way! The five thousand cavalry of the Huns attacked from morning to sunset, and did not capture Yunyang County, and finally they had to retreat. The Huns left more than 1,400 corpses under the city, but Liaohua's side was not very happy, and the number of dead and wounded reached more than 300. And arrows, rolling wood, and oil are consumed too quickly.

The day passed like this, and although Liaohua also strengthened its defense in the evening, the Huns did not attack the city at night.

Early the next morning, the Huns came again with a face full of resentment, and this time they did not let Liao Hua surrender.
