Chapter Forty-Six: Sweat Mountain Wolf Smoke
Zhang Fei and Xu Chu commanded 20,000 iron horsemen, with the help of scouts, like the wind swept across the grassland, and rushed to the Kuitou tribe at noon the next day. New Pen Fun Pavilion. The head of the man had come to his senses at this time, and the horse sat on a mountain bag, looking at his territory after the war, stunned.
20,000 elites, fighting against the exhausted division, Zhang Fei and Xu Chubing divided into two ways and directly killed the remaining tribes. Under Liu Ze's iron-blooded teaching, the soldiers had no sorrow or joy in their hearts, and they did not have the slightest mercy for this alien race who was a disaster on the frontier. Those who offend me will be punished even if they are far away!! Liu Ze will repeatedly emphasize this deafening famous saying of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty whenever he has the opportunity, Zhang Fei and Xu Chu, two hot-blooded men, have implemented this teaching most thoroughly and in place, so Liu Ze sent the two of them to lead the troops.
The head of the Kui watched the Jizhou soldiers wreak havoc in his territory, and he had lost his fighting spirit. 80,000 elites, more than 200,000 young and strong, and less than 30,000 remaining, and most of them are wounded, facing 20,000 fresh troops, how to fight this battle? Kuitou looked at the people who kept falling under the big knife of Jizhou soldiers, his heart was full of despair, the grand cause was empty, and the head looked up to the sky and screamed in despair, and the scimitar in his hand wiped out his neck.
Liu Ze ordered the craftsmen of the army to make siege vehicles and stone-throwing vehicles, and ordered the soldiers to collect stones for the siege. An army of more than 200,000 people, the stones collected were piled up into mountains.
He Lian stood at the head of the city, looking at the busy scene of the Jizhou camp, and lamented in his heart, although the royal city is high and the walls are thick, but there are only 50,000 troops in the city, how can it resist the attack of more than 200,000 Jizhou troops? The son of Helian, Qianman, was only ten years old and was on his side. Although he is young, he is full of wisdom. In the original history, after the death of Helian, the head bullied Qianman at a young age and won the position of Shan Yu, Qianman grew older, accumulated strength, and fought for the country with the leader, but the two were both defeated, the leader and Qianman died, and the brother of the leader, Bu Dugen, became a fisherman and succeeded Shan Yu. Seeing that his father was sullen, Qian Man said: "Father, I remember that you once said that when your grandfather was dying, he swore an oath with the adults of all tribes, the royal court was in trouble, the wolf smoke of the Dan Khan Mountain was ignited, and all the people from all over the world came to King Qin. He Lian because of the Jizhou army approaching the city, the head of the reinforcements hopeless, the heart was anxious, he had already forgotten his father Tan Shihuai's deathbed will, heard his son's reminder, his heart was wide, stroked the top of his son's head, and said: "If it weren't for my son, I would forget my father." "Xianbei has a very large territory, from the Great Xianbei Mountain (Daxing'an Mountains) in the east, to the Jinwei Mountains (that is, the Altai Mountains) in the west, to the Han Empire in the south, and to the Outer Xing'an Mountains in the north, which is equivalent to more than half of the Han Empire. To the west of Danhan Mountain, there are still Hexi Xianbei, Datuoba Xianbei and scattered Xianbei tribes scattered in the vast area. The Huns, who had once dominated the steppe, were driven near the Altai Mountains, near Kangju.
He Lian looked up at the wolf smoke billowing from the top of Dan Khan Mountain, and kept praying to the sky, reinforcements! Come quickly!
In Liu Ze's big tent, Guo Jia was analyzing the military situation, "There must be a reason for the wolf smoke in the sweat mountain." Jiayi is Helian to use this to convey a message to the Xianbei departments in the west of Danhan Mountain. At present, our army has 270,000 soldiers capable of fighting, and the grain and grass materials can be used for two months. Xianbei Wangting, which has been in business for many years, is eager to go down. If the Xianbei reinforcements arrive, our army will be encircled. Hexi Xianbei can take advantage of Hexi County to attack the south road of our army, Tuoba Xianbei bypasses Danhan Mountain, threatens the north of our army, and the rest of Xianbei, if you get a wise general to command, cut off my back road, our army is in danger. Around Danhan Mountain, the terrain is flat, and the reinforcements are sent around the points, and the result is half the effort. Liu Ze looked at the map and asked slowly: "Fengxiao, how should I deal with it?" "Danhan Mountain is far from Xiangping, more than 3,000 miles back and forth, and it takes more than a month to transfer reinforcements from Jizhou. "Youzhou Gongsun Zhan defeated Liu Yu, and he urgently needs to stabilize the overall situation of Youzhou; The two thieves Li Dao and Guo Yan, who are in charge of the state, if our army asks for help, it is really difficult to send troops. Liu Ze said. Guo Jia pondered for a while, and said slowly: "Actually, it's not. Gongsun Chan is a famous general of the generation, proud of fighting foreign enemies; Although Li Dao and Guo Yan were reckless men, they fought against Xianbei and Xiongnu for a long time. If the three of them are righteous, it can be said that the three of them will send troops to help. Liu Ze said: "Who can do it?" Zhang Fei said excitedly: "My old Zhang is from Youzhou, although I don't know Gongsun Zhan, I am tied up, and I have to tie up Gongsun Zhan." "Liu Zexin said, if you follow Liu Da'er, you can't be more familiar with Gongsun Zhan. Guo Jia said with a smile: "Yide, I don't know why you went to see General Bo Jue, why did you say anything?" "What's there to say about that? It is estimated that the Xianbei people on the west side of Danhan Mountain will send a large army to help, Gongsun Boqi old boy, do you want to help? Zhang Fei's words caused everyone in the tent to laugh. Guo Jia said with a smile: "Yide, you only said that the Jizhou army, after repeated battles, the troops are exhausted, besieging the Xianbei royal court, and the company has summoned reinforcements, and the Jizhou army is difficult to support alone, and wants to build great achievements with the general." Gongsun Boqi cherishes feathers and will send troops to help. Zhang Fei muttered: "What do you cherish feathers?" Concerned about his reputation, right? Liu Ze said with a smile: "Yide will be a great success if he goes." I don't know who is going to merge the state? Guo Jia said with a smile: "Zilong is a companion, and Jia will go to Bingzhou." Liu Ze said with a smile: "As soon as Fengxiao goes, reinforcements will come." ”
Originally, Liu Ze was reluctant to let Guo Jia go, after all, there are many things that depend on Guo Jia in the affairs of the army, looking around the account, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, and Xu Rong were once Dong Zhuo's subordinates, and the three of them could never go, how to face the old man, this level is difficult to say. Guan Yu is arrogant, Yu Ban, Zang Ba Mu Ne, Xu Chu and Dian Wei are also the people who charge into battle, and the staff under the tent are rare, Liu Ze sighed, and at present, it can only be arranged like this.
Liu Ze ordered the army to attack the city. The Jizhou army slowly pushed the stone-throwing cart to the outside of the Xianbei King City, and the archers, swords and shields were arrayed to protect it.
The Xianbei soldiers stood at the head of the city, watching hundreds of behemoths come outside the city walls, dumbfounded. Many Xianbei soldiers pointed to the stone throwing cart and cursed with Xianbei words, and even worse, took out the man's dick and urinated on the field. The soldier in charge of the stone throwing truck is not in a hurry, installs and stabilizes the stone throwing vehicle, and when everything is ready, it is installed and debugged. Yu Ban rode proudly on the war horse, seeing that the stone-throwing cart was almost ready, the flag waved, and the stone-throwing cart began to might. Hundreds of stones rose into the air and smashed into the city. The guards of the city watched the boulder volley into the air, and for some reason, they shouted, or ran down the city to hide, or lay down under the battlements of the city wall. Xianbei Wangcheng is built with the huge stones of Danhan Mountain, which is extremely solid, and the sandalwood acacia draws on the experience of Luoyang city wall construction, and the construction is extremely reasonable. Therefore, hundreds of boulders were thrown on the head of the city, and the guards who smashed them cried for their fathers and mothers, and their flesh and blood flew sideways, causing very little damage to the city walls.
When He Lian heard that the Jizhou army smashed the city with a big stone, he asked his subordinates, Duan Chi said: "Shan Yu, you can order the guards to hide under the battlements or city walls, and let the Jizhou army throw stones, wait for it to attack the city, and it will not be too late for the guards to go to the city and hold on." He Lian's cronies said: "Make a frame of huge wood, covered with cowhide, and erect it at the head of the city to cover the boulder." He Lian was overjoyed and ordered someone to arrange it himself.
