Chapter 29 The Huns retreated, and the second brother went out
A day after arriving at Yanmen, Liu Xuewu looked at the brothers who were desperately trying to resist the city gate, and tears fell unconsciously. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info he thought hard all night, and he didn't think of any useful way, but he knew in his heart that he could not continue like this, otherwise once the fight was exhausted, or the soldiers mutinied, the Yanmen Pass would be lost, and as soon as the Yanmen Gate was broken, the entire state would be naked under the enemy's iron cavalry.
All kinds of helplessness, the Xiongnu and Xianbei began to attack the city again, Liu Xuewu hurriedly trotted towards the city gate, and tripped over the rope on the push of the roadside cart on the street without paying attention. Liu Xuewu, who got up, looked at the trolley in front of him and suddenly thought of something. Laughing, he ran to the city gate, and ordered a few soldiers to put two bulky siege ballistae to block the city gate, and when the Huns came to attack, they would be ignited and fired.
It is better to be under the narrow gates, even if the enemy is made of steel, and it is better than the brothers to block the gates with their lives. Soon the gate of Yanmen Gate became a new round of meat grinder, only this time the meat of the ground meat was Xiongnu and Xianbei.
The Xiongnu and Xianbei people are attacking the city in Yanmen these days, and they have seen the endless defensive means of the other side. The casualties of his subordinates are increasing day by day, and they also know that the other party is uncomfortable, but today it was really opened, and the warriors of the two thousand grasslands were strung into a string of human balls by the opponent's huge bows and crossbows before they rushed to the city gate, and then they would explode and cause the bones of these warriors to disappear. At night, when the siege stopped, the cries and wails of the soldiers under his command were in the ears, and the Xiongnu Dadan Yu began to reflect on himself, could it be this attack
Is it really wrong to avenge the steppe tribes and states? While drinking sullen wine, he shouted to the sky, "Am I wrong? ”
King Zuo Xian on the side hurriedly came to report because he got a news recently, but when he saw that his boss Da Shan Yu was like this, he couldn't help but kneel down in front of Da Shan Yu in an angry and excited tone and shouted: "Da Shan Yu, we have been used by the Xianbei people. ”
Reacting from the state of lost soul, he said to King Zuoxian: "Nonsense, the Xianbei people came with me to find revenge on the Han people, what to talk about." ”
"Da Shan Yu, this time we were really used by the Xianbei people, I didn't feel right since I came to Yanmen Pass, so I sent someone to the Han people to inquire about the news, and found that we were indeed used by the Xianbei people." King Zuo Xian said seriously.
"How can I say this, is it possible that the blood debts of dozens of tribes on my grassland will be dead?" Da Shan Yu said in disbelief.
"Da Shan Yu, according to the report of a number of spies I sent, all the Black Iron Demon Cavalry under Liu Xuewu of Bingzhou have been transferred from Bingzhou to attack Liangzhou far away in Xijiang before the tribe is destroyed, and there are only some second-rate soldiers and horses in Bingzhou City, and the number of soldiers and horses is only enough to defend the city. The Xianbei people originally had a holiday with Liu Xuewu in Bingzhou, and 50,000 troops were wiped out in Yanmen a few years ago, and they hated Liu Xuewu in Bingzhou. It happened that our tribe was killed and looted by the inexplicable cavalry, so we were used to attack Yanmen. Originally, I wasn't sure, but I just got the news
Liu Xuewu personally led tens of thousands of cavalry back to the state to aid Yanmen. And the Xianbei people also seem to have received the news and withdrew overnight with their 30,000 horses. ”
"What do you mean is that the Xianbei people used us in anger to attack Bingzhou, and now Liu Xuewu is in a hurry, they bring people back to Bingzhou to find us desperately, and the Xianbei people are ready to watch us both lose, in the words of the Han people, the fisherman profits." The clever Da Dan instantly understood the Xianbei people's plan.
King Zuo Xian saw that Da Shan Yu understood the conspiracy of the Xianbei people, and said with great joy: "Exactly, Da Shan Yu, now that the Xianbei people have withdrawn their troops, there are no other conspiracies, we should hurry back to the division to guard the tribes, as for those tribes being destroyed, I think it has something to do with the Xianbei people." And only they will have enough cavalry troops in the steppe at a coincidental time to do these few things. ”
Just when Da Dan Yu was still hesitating, a subordinate suddenly came to report: "The Xianbei people have attacked the Xiongnu royal court, and now only the fourth prince in the royal court with more than 3,000 people in the royal court is resisting stubbornly, begging Da Dan Yu to come to the aid quickly." ”
Originally, Da Danyu, who was unwilling to Yanmen, almost spit out a mouthful of old blood, "Okay, you Xianbei, not only take advantage of us, but also dare to sneak attack Lao Tzu's royal court, and immediately order the whole army to return and kill the royal court." ”
In fact, the big chief of Xianbei was also depressed, it turned out that his son went to the Xiongnu court with him last time to seduce a woman to sleep, and then he was told that he was the princess of the four princes of the Xiongnu. and the princess secretly cheated on him, and on this day he was accidentally bumped into by the fourth prince, but fortunately the guards were brave and escaped from the royal court. After returning to Xianbei, the more I thought about it, the more unwilling I became, and recently the Hun army poured out. It was also reported that the fourth prince of the Huns had put to death the princess who had cheated on him,
I didn't know that there was a problem with that tendon, so I secretly united with several Xianbei garrison chiefs and sent tens of thousands of troops to attack the Xiongnu royal court.
Originally, the Xiongnu were oppressed by the Han Dynasty in these years, and the internal strife continued, and the number withered, from nearly 10 million to more than 1 million now. This time, in order to attack and merge with the state, Da Danyu sent another 80,000 or 90,000 troops, which led to a serious shortage of troops in the royal court, which allowed Xianbei to succeed in the sneak attack.
After learning the news of the Xiongnu Xianbei's withdrawal, Liu Xuewu, who was originally anxious, finally put his mind at ease and fell asleep directly on the city tower. This is also bitter for him, think about it, when a modern otaku faces a city that will be attacked at any time, how worried he is, how worried he is, until he rushed to Yanmen Pass for three days, he has not closed his eyes. His spirit was highly concentrated, and everyone advised him to put his body first, but he refused.
After all, more than 20 years have passed since he has traveled over, and he is still that cowardly scholar in his heart, and it is precisely because he is cowardly and afraid that he will show everyone that he is strong and his mighty side. No matter what, there was only a few words in his heart, "I want to live." ”
But while he was sleeping, Dong Zhuo was mobilizing a large army, preparing to lead 30,000 Bingzhou iron cavalry and 50,000 Xiliang troops to counterattack Hanyang with Lu Bu as the vanguard and Li Ru as the commander. This is a wave of unsettled, wave after wave.
Perhaps Liu Xuewu has been unlucky recently, and Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao, neighbors of Youzhou, conspired to attack Han Fu in Jizhou, and the war between the two sides broke out again, but Han Fu was timid and afraid, so he secretly sent someone to contact Liu Xuewu, expressing his desire to sacrifice Jizhou, just asking Liu Xuewu to give his family a place to live and live. Because in Han Fu's eyes, Liu Xuewu is loyal and patriotic, and every time he leads the army to repeatedly defeat the foreign barbarians to guard the Han Dynasty, and he is the marquis of the first emperor, which is better than the trustworthiness of Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao and others.
It is also the only force in the region that has the ability to compete with Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao recently, so Han Fu chose to take refuge in Liu Xuewu.
Just when Liu Xuewu was really hesitant to accept Jizhou, he didn't expect that Han Fu, a timid and fearful old fox who was afraid of death but extremely shrewd, saw the crisis of the war ahead, and directly announced that the world would take refuge in Liu Xuewu. Whether it is a matter or not at this time, this completely cut off Liu Xuewu's retreat, and Liu Xuewu, who had no choice but to send the general Zhang Liao with the vanguard Ma Ling's more than 10,000 wild lion remnants and the 20,000 Xiliang wolf cavalry brought back from Hanyang to reorganize the battlefield.
What is the reorganization of the battlefield, in fact, is to pull directly to the battlefield, two completely unrelated armies are forcibly integrated, and the best tacit understanding of the good association cannot be life and death brothers on the battlefield, so Zhang Liao, who was unhappy, took his first horse Ma Ling to the Jizhou battlefield. There is also Liu Xuewu sent graduates of the liberal arts department to take over the government affairs of Jizhou, and Han Fu heard that Liu Xuewu sent someone to send him and his family to Liu Yan in Yizhou to enjoy the blessings, and left without saying a word, and saw that the people sent by Liu Xuewu to escort him were dumbfounded.
At this time, the princes of the world officially began to compete for power, whether it is Cao Cao, Ma Teng, Gongsun Zhan and other ambitious princes, as well as many conservative princes who have formed alliances with each other to protect themselves, among which the worst mixed is nothing more than Liu Bei Liu Xuande, as for the Son of Heaven, hehe, now there is the one who cares about him, maybe he will say hello to him in the name of occupying, whether it should be or not, everyone does not think so, it is just a formality.
As the saying goes, heroes come out of troubled times, and what is not lacking in this world is talent.
I haven't said anyone for a long time, Liu Xuewu's second brother, guess what the second brother is doing now?
Since being robbed by the yellow turban mother-in-law Zhang Feiyan, that little life has been really moisturizing, and in the past four or five years, she has given birth to three children, two boys and one girl, and she has nothing to do in the cottage to tease the children and coax his wife, don't believe it, you see that the originally handsome and chic, scholarly Liu Ergongzi is now like a bucket, except for that handsome face, he can hardly find his previous figure.
Of course, Zhang Feiyan, as the king of the female mountain, is not idle, in addition to giving birth to children, it is to develop forces. Under Liu Erye's various insidious strategies, Feifeng Fort, which originally had more than 10,000 men under his command, has successively annexed dozens of bandits, bandits and the remnants of the Yellow Turban, and its men and horses have approached 200,000, occupying almost one county on the border between Jizhou and Qingzhou, of course, there are only 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers who can fight, and the rest are the families of old and weak women and children.
faintly has the third person in the yellow turban in the world, and he is known as the first and second Zhang Yan and Zhang Niujiao, so no one dares to mess with them. If you have a large population, you can't always live by plundering. Therefore, under the proposition of Liu Erge, the implementation of the military tun or the thief tun, self-sufficient, on the one hand, open up a wide range of trade routes to do business, only a few years to change the gun, the soldiers and horses can be compared with the princes of one side.
Originally, he was going to find the right time to seize Jizhou when Gongsun Zhan and Han Fu were fighting, but now he learned that Han Fu directly sent Jizhou to Liu Xuewu, and according to the latest information, the current situation of his third brother, who has been strong since childhood, is not optimistic. There are tigers in front and wolves in the back, but it rained overnight, so I hurriedly found my wife who was breastfeeding to convene my subordinates to discuss the matter in the future.
At this time, Second Brother Liu personally went into battle and took command, with Zhou Cang as the vanguard, he sent 30,000 troops to prepare to march into Jizhou.
