Chapter 162: Trapped in the Nine Plains (2)

As soon as Lu Bu returned to the city, Han Yi and Gao Shun hurriedly went down to the city and asked, "Brother Fengxian, how can He Lian respond?" ”

Lu Bu threw the halberd in his hand, and a gatekeeper hurriedly stepped forward to catch it, Lu Bu jumped off the horse and glanced at Han Yi strangely, and said with a smile: "Fang Cai and Lian Na sent someone to tell me that this time he sent troops not to go back on his word and come for the people of Jiuyuan City, but because of Mingyuan." Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info The people of Jiuyuan City can leave freely, but the first army of Mingyuan can't leave. How? Mingyuan has an enmity with Helian? ”

Han Yi was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Last year, Yi went to Xianbei in the east, killed a lot of Xianbei people, and Lian was the nominal co-leader of the Xianbei people, thinking that he came to take revenge on me. ”

Lu Bu shook his head and said, "It's not like, it's not like." A few years ago, when He Lian first migrated from Danhan Mountain to Hetao, he fought a battle with my Jiuyuan City, and after more than 1,000 people were killed and wounded, he ignored my Jiuyuan City. It can be seen that Helian does not care much about the loss of the defeated army and the great enemy in his heart, and it can also be seen that he does not like to conquer. Later, a certain person in Jiuyuan City heard a lot and even liked the temperament of fishing, unless he snatched the female color with him, otherwise, he would never lead a large army to come to you to find trouble. ”

Han Yi couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and Lian was a Xianbei Shan Yu, who didn't care about the defeat of the army and the great enemy in his heart, but he cared a lot about women, but this kind of strange co-owner of one country was rare, and it was similar to the king of Zhou Shi.

Under the gaze of Lu Bu and Gao Shun, Han Yi scratched his head and thought for a while before saying, "I have never met with Helian, how can there be a conflict above women...... Yes, only when he came to Jiuyuan, he drove away a Xianbei robber in Dingxiang County and saved an old acquaintance, and saw his daughter quite beautiful at that time, could it be this? ”

Lu Bu high-fived and smiled: "It must be because of this." I heard that there is a cavalry under the command of Helian who is specially used to hunt for beauty, and has been wandering around the Xianbei tribes and the border areas such as Bingzhou and Yongzhou. What Mingyuan met in Dingxiang County must be this cavalry. ”

It seems that today's incident is really because of himself, and this time he came to escort the people of Jiuyuan City back to the Han land, but he didn't want to be trapped again because of himself. Han Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Yi didn't want to encounter such a bastard, then Helian was really a bastard." Tanshi Huai has a son like this, it is really a great misfortune for Xianbei, and a great fortune for my Han. ”

Seeing Lu Bu and Gao Shun with strange faces, Han Yi asked, "Is the words of the two of you credible?" Will he really let the people of Jiuyuan leave? ”

Gao Shun said: "Tanshi Huai and Helian father and son are both people who do what they say, and it is not easy to regret what they should undertake. However, if Tanshi Huai is there, he may be interested in more than 10,000 people in Jiuyuan City, but Helian basically has no interest. ”

Since even the calm Gao Shun said so, Han Yi could only shake his head and smile bitterly: "You have a deep understanding of Helian, since you think that Helian is indeed here because of me, not for the people of Jiuyuan City, you can lead them away today." I'll leave this and Lian to me. ”

Lu Bu shouted dissatisfiedly: "How can we let Mingyuan be trapped in the lonely city here, but I have the heart to escape." ”

Han Yi smiled proudly: "If it weren't for the drag of more than 10,000 people in Jiuyuan City, who would dare to stop me and the thousand iron horsemen under my command if they wanted to leave?" ”

Lu Bu clapped his hands and shouted, "Zhuang Mingyuan." Junli, you will lead the people of Jiuyuan to retreat first, and I will stay with Mingyuan to fight and make peace. ”

Without waiting for Gao Shun to agree, Han Yi persuaded again: "Helian has an uncertain temperament, I'm afraid that he won't attack me, and he will turn around and take the people of Jiuyuan to blackmail me." There is no protection of the city fortress in the wilderness, only Junli is alone, I am afraid that the guards will not be available, so Feng Xian should leave together. ”

Lu Bu hesitated for a while before he relented: "Okay, but Mingyuan shouldn't fight hard with Helian, after all, there are 40,000 riders here, and it is not a good strategy to fight hard." After I return to the state, I will find Zhang Tingshi to find several beauties for Mingyuan, send them to Helian, and let Helian go away. ”

Han Yi laughed and said: "The eldest husband is alive, how can there be a weak woman begging for mercy......" Seeing that Lu Bu and Gao Shun were quite displeased, he hurriedly said: "If it weren't for the fact that there were more than 10,000 people in Jiuyuan City before, who would be bent on flattering and even this mediocre fool." Today, the people of Jiuyuan can leave safely, although they are alone, why are they afraid of mere harmony. ”

Lu Bu and Gao Shun Dazhuang said this, and after saying goodbye repeatedly, the two led the people of Jiuyuan City, who had already prepared for the relocation, to the outside of the city. He Lian really let go of a wide road, allowing Lu Bu, Gao Shun and others to leave, and only trapped Han Yi and other 1,000 Bingzhou troops in the city.

Han Yi stood in the south of the city and looked at the more than 10,000 people of Jiuyuan who had left the migrants, and they disappeared until they were gone, and there was no surprise attack by the Xianbei people. Han Yi nodded again and again, it seems that although He Lian is not virtuous and unwise, he still has his advantages in being able to be established as the heir by Tanshi Huai. At least keep your word, although you don't regret your mistakes, you can get the loyalty of many people.

Song Xian crawled on the battlements, looked at the endless Xianbei military tents under the city, and asked in horror: "Han Sima, there are so many Xianbei people, can our army leave safely?" ”

Ma Yan laughed shamefully and said: "Last year, when I was besieged by more than 20,000 Xianbei people in Wuhuan Mountain, I would never be as timid and useless as you. ”

Song Xian's old face turned red, he forced himself to stand up straight, and glared at Ma Yan at the same time as Wei Xu and Hou Cheng, but Ma Yan was also on Ma Yan's side, and Zhang Kai also helped. Although Han Juzi and Lu Weihuang were at odds with Ma Yan and Zhang Kai, they were comrades who had fought in the eastern Xianbei and shared life and death, so they also stood behind the two to show their support.

Han Yiwang saw that in addition to Song Xian, Wei Xu, and Hou Cheng, even the two generals Wei Yue and Cheng Lian were quite sad on their faces, and there were almost no other soldiers who could talk and laugh freely. Only the more than ten people who have conquered the Xianbei in the east can regard the 40,000 Xianbei under the city as nothing, talking and laughing.

Han Yi asked with a smile: "Brother Wen, Junyue, do you two have a strategy to break the enemy?" ”

Wen Chou and Gao Ran said with a smile: "When the enemy is several times larger than mine, the two of us may be able to win the battle." When the enemy was dozens of times larger than ours, the two of us only acted at Sima's orders. ”

Han Yi shook his head and asked Che La, Wang Yang, Yu Hua and other generals, and when all the generals shook their heads helplessly, Han Yi smiled and said: "He Lian led 40,000 Xianbei troops to come, not to enslave the more than 10,000 people who plundered Jiuyuan City, but to be angry with me for the matter of just one woman." The reason for raising the army is poor, how strong will its army be? In my opinion, it is better than the four thousand eastern Xianbei people in the Wuhuan Mountains who want revenge. Although there are 40,000 troops outside the city, I regard them as mustard, and their armies are easy to break. ”

Unlike the Han army, Hulu's conquest has always been fought for profit, and there is no conquest for profit. For the Xianbei people, this battle will never benefit from half a point, but there will be countless casualties, but only to vent their anger with Lian alone, who would be willing to fight to the death? Even if it is a direct subordinate member, it is impossible. The generals thought about it, it was really like this, and they immediately rejoiced.

Wang Yang asked: "Sima still intends to defend first and then attack, first slack off the enemy's heart, and then use the method of breaking the enemy?" ”

Han Yi nodded and said, "Jiuyuan City is three feet and five feet high, with a radius of one thousand eight hundred and fifteen steps, and the city defense is quite perfect. Although our army is small, and the guards are inconvenient, the Xianbei people are not good at attacking the city, so there is no big harm. As long as the rest of the month is held, as soon as the Xianbei army's heart is scattered, it will be the time for our army to counterattack. The order was sent down, and the whole army collected the things in the city to defend the city and prepare for the defense of the city. ”

The generals agreed one after another, and after dispersed, they each led their troops and prepared to go. The lonely city of Jiuyuan City has been trapped in the enemy territory for a long time, and in recent years, the Xianbei people have basically not come to attack again, and there are a lot of materials to defend the city. Most of them are things adapted to local conditions, but the Han people have the same mind, and they can guess it with a little thought, and they have been moved to the city to prepare.

There are a lot of grain and forage in the city that the people of Jiuyuan City can't take away, and Han Yi's army only has 1,000 people and 2,000 war horses, which can't eat much, which can be eaten for March. For three months, Han Yi had already broken the army of Helian.

Early the next morning, He Lian sent an envoy to the city to shout that as long as Han Yi promised to send ten beauties who were not inferior to Ma Xue'er to him, He Lian would forgive Han Yi for his previous offense. Han Yi scoffed at this, if there was no way to break the harmony, he might agree to him as a last resort. But there is a way to break it, who will sacrifice a daughter to ask for his life.

He Lian was furious and immediately sent an army of 5,000 to attack the city. However, as Han Yi expected, the Xianbei people's fighting spirit was not high. At the end of the day, they failed to capture the city for the first time. The total number of casualties on both sides was less than 50, and the state army suffered only 7 casualties.

Helian was furious, but the Xianbei lords under his command were either his uncles and brothers, or the veterans left behind in the Tanshihuai era, except for reprimanding, in desperation, the two sides completely stopped and confronted each other after attacking and defending several times. Han Yi and the Bingzhou army had nothing to do in the city, so they sought their own pleasure, but they were also stable.

In November, although the land of Hetao is blocked by Yin Mountain, and the day of heavy snow is a little late, but when the cold wind blows, the Xianbei people who camp in the field are still more and more impetuous. Han Yi saw in the city that several troops had retreated one after another for several days, and he thought that the thoughts of the Xianbei people had almost been lost, and in a few days, it would be the time for the army to counterattack.

On this day, a messenger suddenly came from the Xianbei camp and wanted to ask to see Han Yi. Han Yi ordered someone to put it in the hanging basket and put it in the city, and the messenger got out of the hanging basket and straightened his clothes, before bowing to Han Yi and said with a smile: "My family heard that a major incident happened in Han and Zhou, and I didn't want to deceive Han Sima, so I specially ordered me to come and tell you." ”

Han Yi smiled slightly and said, "Please speak." ”

The envoy cleared his throat and said: "A few days ago, the Hun tribes of Xiutu raised troops against the Han, attacked Xihe County under the organization of the White Horse Copper Department, and killed Xihe Taishou Xingji. Youxian Wangbu and Tu Gehu joined forces to rebel, and more than 100,000 people attacked and killed Shan Yu Qiangqu, and established the Marquis of Xubu Bone as the new Shan Yu. ”
