Yuyang, since ancient times, has been the bridgehead of the Central Plains Dynasty to resist the southward movement of the Hu people.

It was an important town in the northern part of the Western Han Dynasty, bordering the Xiongnu.

Liyang Pass, belonging to the northern part of Yuyang, its history can be traced back to the Han Gaozu Liu Bang period.

After the siege of Baideng, Liu Bang adopted a policy of peace and proximity towards the Xiongnu in order to ease the relationship between the Huns and Hans.

Because Liyang Pass is located between the Huns and Hans, it was opened to the Xiongnu as a customs city.

After the opening of Liyang Pass, it became a shopping mall for the Hu people, although it was a border market, but the Han people were not happy to do business with the Hu people at all, because the Hu people did not have their own writing, no currency, and everything relied on exchange.

Some Huns often exchanged a sheep's horn for a Han cow, 50 sheep were forcibly exchanged for a female slave from human traffickers, and a cow was exchanged for 50 silk horses, and so on.

Because they are in harmony, the border people and the border army also dare not speak out, no one dares to undermine the court's policy of harmony, once the Hungarian and Han wars, the court will definitely be charged with undermining the overall situation of peace.

This situation was not until Liu Che declared war on Hungary, and Liyang Pass officially withdrew from the unilateral and pro-border city sequence, but it also meant that the Xiongnu needed to go south to plunder for the winter thereafter.

Ruoyao felt all the way north to the rhythm of farming in the Central Plains.

However, entering Yuyang County seems to have changed, especially Liyang Pass, which is close to the Xiongnu border.

Nervous! Dreariness! It is Ruoyao's most down-to-earth feeling.

The three border cities on the Yuyang border have become ghost towns, full of charred houses and people fleeing for their lives.

And the more you lean to the side of the Huns, there is another feeling, which is called the same hatred of the enemy.

Men and women, young and old, are actively preparing for war, preparing bows and arrows, building arrow towers, and rushing to transport grain and grass.

"Quick, carry all the arrows to the arrow tower."

"Cavalry, cavalry go out ten miles to explore the way!"

The defenders are actively preparing to defend against the attack of the Huns.

In the five days before this, the border city had been infested three times by the Hu people, and the five surrounding villages had been looted, and the villagers had already entered the border city protected by the city walls.

This is safe, and it is also the last safe haven for the border people, because the Hu people are not good at attacking the city, and if you want to break through the five-person high city defense, you must have ten times the number of troops.

"Are you too guarded?" Ruoyao stopped a guard and asked.

The general of the defending army turned his head to look at the sergeant wearing the red tasseled armor of the Han army behind Ruoyao, this kind of army is a regular army from the imperial court, not a local defender in Yuyang, so he arched his hand and said: "This female general is too guarded in the mansion." ”

"Mansion?" Ruoyao had never heard such a name, so she asked, "In what direction?" ”

The guard pointed to the north: "Over there!" ”

Ruoyao couldn't figure it out, when did Han Anguo have such backbone? actually dared to sit at the forefront, so he curiously verified: "You, you are too guarded at the forefront?" Han Anguo? ”

"Yes!" The guard general looked at the people and sergeants who seemed to be running back and forth, and said firmly: "Taishou has informed the whole county that the city is in the people, the city is ruined, and he has always been at the forefront!" ”

Ruoyao kept rummaging through relevant memories in her mind, but she really didn't have any information about Han Anguo's bull.

But to be able to inform the whole county that the people are there, and the city is ruined, this kind of arrogance is indeed worthy of praise.

"Knock ......"

"Knock ......"

"Knock ......"

Suddenly, a dense drum beat was heard in the distance.

After hearing this, the guards pulled their legs and ran towards the castle tower, while the sergeants who were still preparing just now put down their things one after another, put up their bows and arrows, and aimed in the direction of the north.

"The Huns are coming, prepare for war!" Ruoyao turned her head and said to the guards behind her.

The guards drew their swords and ran towards the tower.

really

Standing on the city tower and looking out, hundreds of Hu people were cruising in the distance.

Fighting Hu people, Ruo Yao can learn a trick from Wei Qing, that is, attack, you must take the initiative to attack in order to grasp the initiative on the battlefield, and defense is only a dead end, and if you are not killed, you will be dragged to death.

"General Yang." Ruoyao pointed to the Hun soldiers cruising in front of him and said, "Take the initiative to attack and catch a few back!" ”

General Yang arched his hand and said, "No! ”

The sergeants that Ruoyao carried with her this time were all fifty people selected from the Wei Qinghu Army, and they had conducted various training in the war against Hungary, so Ruoyao was full of confidence.

Riding on the war horse, Ruoyao pulled the red cloak back, pulled out the eight clothes in his hand and rushed out with the army.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Report!" A Hun soldier hurriedly whipped up and ran towards the noble leader Territory Han: "Chief, the Han army is out of the city." ”

As soon as Tuhan heard that the Han army was out of the city, the stuffiness in his chest suddenly disappeared, and the cavalry ransacked the surroundings of Liyang Pass, but there was no way to take Liyang Pass, but he could only look at the high city wall and sigh.

The Huns who invaded Yuyang County were none other than Yi Zhixie, the king of Zuogu Li.

After the Battle of Dragon City, Yi Zhixian and several other kings were punished most severely by the military minister Shan Yu, and a large area of grassland was taken back by Shan Yuting, and life was not easy for more than a year, and his tribe was like an abandoned old wolf.

And this year, the Xiongnu military minister Shan Yu wanted to gather a large number of troops to go south to avenge the fall of Longcheng, but unfortunately, he fell ill again while still living in Wolf Juxu Mountain, and dealt with a large number of people from top to bottom, and the new appointee did not have time to meet with his own people, so it created an opportunity for Liu Che to rectify the country.

Yi Zhixian was sinned, the grassland was occupied by Shan Yuting, coupled with the competition and squeeze of the powerful kings such as the Zuo Xian King, the Right Xian King, the Aries King, etc., Yi Zhixian still wanted to keep his strength and keep the 20,000 horses that he had finally pulled up, so he had to grovel and plead everywhere, and herded all the way to the opposite side of Yuyang County.

Autumn is followed by winter, and the Hu people, who live as nomads, know that winter is the hardest.

In the past, the Han people would be okay and pay tribute, and the border city would send a lot of things to the nomadic Huns on the opposite side to prevent them from going south, but now that war has been declared, the only way to get things from the Han people is to rob them.

Tuhan, as the outpost army of Yizhi's invasion of Yuyang, has been robbing in Yuyang for a few days, although the harvest has been full of money, and the materials are enough for several tribes to survive this winter, but he still seems to be not satisfied, he wants to enter Liyang Pass to see what is in the high walls of the Han people? Let's see if you can take the impregnable city.

"Someone!" Tuhan played with the beard on the corner of his mouth with his right hand, and then said to the guard: "Immediately report to the forward general Wu Thorn, and say that this leader gave him a big gift, but let him borrow a thousand soldiers and horses from this leader." ”

Tu Han has great ambitions, and he wants to conquer Liyang Pass, so that he will have more status in front of Yizhi, the king of Zuogu Li.

There are very few sergeants out of Liyang Pass, only these people brought out by Ruoyao from Chang'an, and the purpose of going out is to fight tooth sacrifices, practice hands, and experience the fun of killing people first.

After driving out the stragglers who were cruising in front of Liyang Pass, Ruoyao did not plan to pursue, and collected his troops and returned to the pass to see Taishou.
