Chapter 416: Wang Hui's Moth
Highly recommended:
"Attack, as you did yesterday, attack. We want to take Cloudsdale in one fell swoop. The military minister Shan Yu roared. The earth trembled with his roar.
I don't know how much this land has been washed of blood, and I don't know how many Huns have trampled on it. The people of this land never knew about resistance. But now, because of Yan Ming's arrival, Dahan has become different. All revolts are advanced, and all wars are turned towards the other side.
"Fight!" The 100,000 army of the Xiongnu, the elite soldiers of 100,000 military ministers Shan Yu, launched a crazy charge towards the clouds that seemed to be a lonely city.
The flintlock pistol was in the bunker, as if it was firing without money. The fire and thunder at the head of the city roared, throwing fire and thunder into the army of Shan Yu. The Condor crossbow is also in full swing.
In the frenzied counterattack of the Han army, the Huns did not retreat, but became even more crazy. They howled and howled, and blocked the outer bunkers with sandbags and **.
The loss, naturally, is not small.
But after the Huns successfully built the city in the clouds, they approached the city of the clouds like never before.
The military minister Shan Yu saw the hope of attacking Cloud City.
He personally got on his horse, took a scimitar, and urged the army behind to attack. At all costs, even if you use people to block it, you must also take down Cloudsdale.
The Huns made a living by herding horses, but they were not fools. Especially the military minister Shan Yu, he understands that the fact that Cloud City is so strong now can only mean one thing, that is, the Han army has discovered something new.
In modern terms, it is the Han army that has new technology.
If it is the brutal Mao Dun Shan Yu, perhaps after the destruction of the city in the clouds, he will choose to destroy the advanced culture and equipment of all the Han people. But the military minister was thinking about something else. What he had to do was to take everything from the Han Dynasty and see if it was suitable for the development of the nomads on the steppe.
That's why he mobilized a large-scale attack on Cloudsdale.
After receiving the news of the destruction of King Zuoxian, the military minister Shan Yu was first angry, and then fell into deep thought. There must be a profound reason why a small Cloud City can make the tens of thousands of corpses of King Zuo Xian's army disappear.
Now, his elite Huns are about to attack Cloud City and find out the reason for this.
The crazy Huns, while frantically attacking Cloud City. The four-way army of the Han Dynasty has become an encirclement posture, sealing the retreat of the Xiongnu army minister Shan Yu.
The flames of war in Cloud City have spread to the Han army.
After receiving the news that Li Guang and Cheng Buzhi cooperated to guide the Xiongnu to Yunzhong, the four-way Han army accelerated its march.
Cloud City, whether it can withstand the attack of 100,000 Huns, is no longer important. It is important that the Huns have entered the encirclement.
At this time, Wang Hui, the person who has always been the main battle, suddenly put forward a suggestion.
He suggested that the four-way army slow down its journey and let the defenders of Cloud City consume the endurance of the Huns before completing the siege, so that the Huns' spirit would have been exhausted in the siege. As long as the Han army appears, it will inevitably be a devastating ending.
There is no problem with this suggestion.
Without regard to human nature and only the outcome of the war, this proposal is simply the perfect strategic plan.
It's a pity that the people in Cloud City are Yan Ming and Wei Qing. At this time, Wei Qing may not be important, but Yan Ming has become the favorite of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, if Yan Ming is left in Cloud City, I am afraid there will be no good fruit to eat.
What's more, Gongsun Ao is still Yan Ming's sworn brother.
Hearing this suggestion, Gongsun Ao was the first to quit. He threatened that the emperor had no such plan. If Wang Hui tampered with the plan privately, he would rush forward with his army.
Wang Hui and Han Anguo believe that sacrificing a Yan Ming for the sake of the country's plan is nothing. The two of them studied it with Gongsun He and prepared to implement it according to their ideas.
Only Gongsun Ao, with his own military horses, marched towards Cloud City. The remaining three-way army slowly spread out, surrounding the Xiongnu people and Gongsun Ao's people in the wilderness centered on Yunzhong City.
According to Wang Hui'er, when Gongsun Ao enters, it will also consume the strength of the Huns. This would certainly be more favorable to the outcome of the war as a whole.
Once the Huns are captured alive, then, the credit is shared by three people. As for Gongsun Ao, he insisted that he was greedy for merit, that is.
Wang Hui, the loser of the historical Ma Yi scheme, is now here in Cloud City, and he has begun to think crookedly again.
Han Anguo and Gongsun He were moved by Wang Hui's rhetoric, believing that strategically speaking, what he did was right.
It is indeed a good way to consume the Xiongnu siege army and grind the Huns to death little by little. Although the city in the clouds was abandoned, it was far less than the frontal resistance to the Huns, and the losses were less.
When Gongsun Ao's army appeared. The Huns had been fighting under the city of clouds for two days and two nights.
For these two days and two nights, Cloudsdale was a human purgatory. The Huns outside suffered numerous casualties. And Yunzhong City has also been approached by the Huns several times to the city wall, and there are even ladders and hooks hanging on Yunzhong City.
The appearance of Gongsun Ao's army was an encouragement to Cloud City. And for the Xiongnu's military minister Shan Yu, it was bad news.
He was alert, but when he saw Gongsun Ao's military horses, Xiongnu Shan Yu didn't care too much. He immediately divided his troops, part of which was fought against Gongsun Ao's men, and part of which stepped up the siege of the city.
If the encirclement is successful at this time, the military ministers will definitely be unable to escape.
It's a pity that Wang Hui was clever and caused the best opportunity to close the siege.
The moment Gongsun Ao's soldiers appeared, Yan Ming and Wei Qing got the report and immediately came out of hiding. Wei Qing and Yan Ming found Liu Ling and prepared to take over Cloud City.
The moment Liu Ling saw Yan Ming, her beautiful face turned pale in an instant, and she covered her mouth with her hands.
In her heart, Yan Ming was dead. Now that I see my sweetheart in front of me, the feeling is indescribable.
Yan Ming hugged Liu Ling, who was dressed in armor, and said softly, "You have suffered." I'll take care of the rest. As for the reason, I will explain it to you after the battle. Let's go and release my brother Sima Xiu first. ”
Liu Ling is a smart woman, she will not ask some irrelevant things at this time, nodded obediently, and took her four guards to the prison to release Sima Xiu.
Since Yan Ming said to release Sima Xiu, then Sima Xiu must have no problem, Liu Ling didn't want to do what Yan Ming said.
The appearance of Wei Qing and Yan Ming made the officers and soldiers in the city instantly cheer up.
"Soldiers, this time, it was a pit dug by our Han for the Xiongnu Shan Yu. Now the Xiongnu Shan Yu has entered the pit, captured Shan Yu alive, destroyed the Xiongnu, and in one fell swoop. Wei Qing roared.
All the people in the city cheered.
