Chapter 360: Capture Rouran's General Avoro Alive
All the area of Woye Town is green, the green vegetation covers the earth, the Hetao area is washed by the Yellow River, the water and grass are abundant, and it is a good place for the Rouran people to graze.
Since the pre-Qin period, the Xiongnu have competed with the Qin State for the Hetao area, and after the fall of the Qin Dynasty, the Xiongnu and the Han Dynasty have competed for the Hetao area; After the Northern Xiongnu moved westward, Mobei was occupied by the Xianbei people, and then the Xianbei people competed with the Han Dynasty, Cao Wei, and Jin Dynasty for the Hetao area.
After that, the Rouran people got rid of the control of the Xianbei people and rose strongly, and fought with the Xianbei people for the Hetao area.
This Hetao area is as if it is a peerless beauty, and even a man wants to occupy it.
The sun rose high, and there was a Rouran soldier standing on the wall of Fertile City every three or five steps, and there were also Rouran soldiers patrolling back and forth on the city wall.
At this moment, a pillar of smoke and dust rose in the eastern sky, and a large number of horses' hooves were faintly heard, and soon a cavalry appeared on the horizon, and a large number of flags were waving in the ranks.
"Hurry up and tell the marshal that the Wei army is coming, and the strength is unknown!" A handsome man on the city wall shouted a loud command to the Rouran soldiers beside him.
The Rouran soldiers who got the order turned around and ran away, and it didn't take long for a general to rush to the city wall with a large number of Rouran soldiers.
"Look, Dashuai!" Rouran Xiaoshuai pointed to the Northern Wei cavalry that appeared on the eastern horizon and said.
When Marshal Rou Ran saw the smoke and dust rising from the sky in the distance, his pupils shrank, and after a while, his expression relaxed again, because he saw that the Wei cavalry that came this time was less than 3,000 people, which was not enough to break through his fertile city.
"Hahaha, just like that, a little man wants to attack Ben Shuai's Fertile City? These Wei soldiers are really impatient! Rou Ran Marshal shouted, "Little ones get ready, watch Ben Shuai take you out of the city to give these Wei troops who don't know whether they are alive or dead!" โ
"Good!" The Rouran soldiers on the city wall agreed in a hurry.
The little marshal Rou Ran beside him hurriedly admonished: "Handsome and slow, we don't know the reality of the Wei army yet, so it's better not to go out of the city to fight at will!" โ
After listening to the persuasion of his subordinates, Marshal Rouran thought about it and felt that it made some sense, so he waved his hand and shouted to the soldiers: "Defend the city wall first, and see what these Wei troops have in their intentions!" โ
"Yes, Dashuai!"
The large force of cavalry of the Wei army rushed over, the place where the army passed was dusty, the ground trembled, the sound of horses' hooves rolled like thunder, and the banners in the army were lined up, flying in the wind, so not majestic.
The leading general of the Wei army is Da Xi Guangliang and the Shu army led by Da Xi Guangliang, who is a member of the Da Xi family among the ten surnames of the emperor, and is also a relatively famous fierce general among the ten surnames of the emperor.
The army stopped outside the city, the dust rushed into the sky, and when the smoke and dust cleared, Da Xi Guangliang was about to shout to the city wall, but suddenly forgot the name of this Rouran handsome, turned his head and asked the soldiers around him: "What did that kid from Mulan say just now that Rouran is in this city?" โ
It turned out that Hua Mulan sent people to sweep around Fertile City last night, caught some Rouran people who had not had time to enter the city, and learned the name of the Rouran handsome in the city and the general situation of the Rouran people here after interrogation.
There are more than a dozen tribes of Rouran people entrenched in the area of Woye Town, the large tribes have thousands of people, and the small ones have only a few hundred people, with different surnames, and it is not clear how many people there are in total, but there should not be too many people who can escape into Woye Town.
The soldier replied, "It's called Avro!" โ
Da Xiguang nodded and said to his own soldiers: "You go over and shout to the city, and let Avoro order to open the city gate and surrender, otherwise the general will ยทยทยทยทยทยท when the city is broken."
"Yes!" As soon as the soldiers agreed, they galloped away towards the city wall.
When they ran under the city wall, the soldier shouted to the city: "Listen to the commander of Rouran, Avro, my general ordered me to come and tell you, let you open the city gate and surrender immediately, otherwise, when our army breaks through the city, my general will sleep with your wife and daughter, kill your son, kill all the creeping men in the city, give their women to our soldiers, and let their women give birth to us children!" Did you hear that? Hurry up and open the gates! โ
Avro screamed in anger when he heard this, drew his scimitar and turned around to rush down the city wall and lead his troops out.
A general next to him immediately grabbed him: "Don't be handsome, we don't know if there is still the Wei army in the rear, so as not to be calculated by the Wei army, it is important to hold the city!" โ
Avoro calmed down a little, there were indeed less than 3,000 men and horses outside the city, but no one knew if there were still Wei troops around Woye City.
Avro calmed down, walked back to the battlement, stretched out his hand and shouted, "Bring the bow!" โ
One of the soldiers handed a pair of bows and arrows to him, and Avoro took the bow and arrows and aimed them at Da Xi's bright soldiers.
The soldier saw a general on the city wall aiming at him, his face turned pale with fright, and a dozen horses ran to the side, and as soon as he moved, the arrow grazed his shoulder, and he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and just a moment later, his life was gone.
The soldiers ran back and told Da Xi Guangliang that "General, the villain relayed your words to Avro, but the man ignored the villain and shot an arrow at the villain, and the villain almost came back with his life!" โ
Da Xi Guangliang frowned, "I didn't expect this Avoro to be angry, in this way, you brought a few soldiers who can scold people over to scold this general, and you want to scold Avoro so angry that he vomits blood, do you understand?" Don't stand within range of their bows and arrows! โ
"Yes!"
Soon a few vicious-mouthed soldiers were found and brought to the front to scold, and these people did curse twice, and after a few words of scolding, Avoro couldn't stand it.
Someone even took off his pants and peed in the direction of the city wall, such an obvious insult, how could Avro stand it? All the Rouran people on the city wall couldn't stand it anymore.
Avoro immediately turned around and ran down the tower, gathered his troops and horses, and prepared to attack in the cave of the city gate.
It wasn't long before the gates creaked open, and Avoro rushed out of the gate with a group of Rouran cavalry.
As if they couldn't believe that the Rouran people dared to go out of the city to fight, the Wei soldiers were so frightened that they turned around and fled.
"Hahaha, even these cowards dare to come to fight this handsome city, chase after me, and kill them all!" Avro shouted and beat his horse and chased after the Wei army.
After chasing for a few miles, he didn't catch up, but just followed closely behind, and a general next to him shouted to Afugan: "Dashuai, will there be fraud?" Let's go back! โ
When Avro heard this, he began to worry about the safety of the city again, so he stopped and shouted: "Go back! โ
Rouran people didn't chase after him, which made Da Xi Guangliang wonder, how could this be? Why is this Avoro so daring?
Da Xi Guangliang sent someone to find Hua Mulan to report the situation, and after listening to it, Hua Mulan instructed the soldiers who reported the news: "You go and tell Da Xi Guangliang and let him lead the team back to continue scolding, this Avro is still very cautious, and he will not be fooled easily, only if he is completely angered, if he doesn't work once, he will come twice, and if he doesn't work twice, he will come three times, and there will always be a time to provoke him!" โ
The soldiers who reported the news ran back and relayed Mulan's words to Da Xi Guangliang, who scolded Mulan for being tricky, but still took the men and horses to continue to provoke Avoro according to Mulan's arrangement.
The second time, Avoro was scolded again and led the team out of the city to chase and kill, but after chasing for a while, he led the team to run back.
Da Xi Guangliang then led people back to continue to provoke, continue to scold, Avoro was harassed one after another, and the third time he couldn't help it at all, and no one could stop him when he lost his temper, leaving less than a thousand people to defend the city, and he took more than 4,000 people out of the city to chase after the Shu Zi army.
This time, Avro secretly vowed to catch up with these damn Wei troops and kill them all, but after chasing him, he forgot the time, and he didn't know how long he had been chasing, and by the time he reacted, he had already chased into a basin that was high on both sides and low in the middle.
He instinctively sensed danger, but by the time he noticed it, it was too late, and a large number of Rouran cavalry appeared on the high ground on both sides, more than 10,000 cavalry.
"Killโ" Mulan shouted with a large sword, and rushed towards the Rouran generals who had entered the ambush circle first.
A large number of Wei cavalry shouted and killed and beat horses and rushed towards the Rouran army in the valley, and the hillside was densely packed and countless.
The Rouran soldiers who were caught in the middle were all panicked, and it was too late to turn around at this time, and the Wei cavalry released arrows while rushing, and a large number of arrows were shot into the Rouran army from the hillsides on both sides.
One by one, the Rouran soldiers were shot, and more Rouran soldiers were so frightened that they were scurrying around, many of them were huddled together and couldn't move at all, and many rode horses to run into each other in order to escape.
After the initial panic, Avro knew that he was under siege, and that he had to break out if he wanted to survive.
"We can't wait here to die, rush me, rush out with me, kill!" Avro shouted, brandishing his scimitar and rushing forward.
But the front had been blocked by the Wei cavalry at this time, and Avoro ran into the Wei cavalry head-on, and after killing five or six Wei soldiers in a row, he was stopped again and completely lost his speed.
He slashed and killed three Wei cavalrymen, and was about to beat his horse and run out, but a Wei general rushed next to him, and this Wei general held a big knife and slashed.
Avro turned his head to look, his eyes widened, this knife was too fast, he immediately swung his knife to block, and the whole person fell backwards.
With a "poof", Avoro's horse was cut in two by the knife, and although he dodged the knife, the whole man fell to the ground, and when he was about to get up, a large knife was stuck in the ground, and the blade was facing his neck, so that he did not dare to move.
Hua Mulan leaned over and stretched out her hand to lift Avoro above her head and shouted: "Listen to the generals, your commander has been captured, all of them have put down their weapons and surrendered to this general, otherwise not only Avoro will die, but all of you will die!" โ
Gradually, the fighting stopped.
Avoro shouted: "Don't listen to him, kill it, you can escape as much as you can, kill it!" โ
Mulan raised her head and shouted, "Avoro, do you want all of them to bury you with you?" โ
