The brewing of the war needs a process, the Huns and the Han people have reached the point of life and death since a hundred years ago, Gaozu had commanded troops to attack the Huns, but it is a pity that the white mountain station made the Han can no longer raise his head, and he has to swallow his anger and exchange women for peace. But the Han people have never forgotten the shame and humiliation, and after the Wenjing and Jing dynasties, they finally had some capital in the hands of Liu Che.

A big battle in Mayi completely ignited the anger and ambition in the hearts of the Han people, and the Huns were not so terrible, they would also be killed, they would also be defeated, and the ghosts who would also be killed would cry wolves and beg for mercy on their knees. In the first battle of Mayi, the Xiongnu suffered heavy casualties, and even their Shan Yu was killed. Of course, the Han people also died a lot, but compared to the Xiongnu, the Han people can withstand it.

But the Xiongnu are always the Xiongnu, as long as the Xiongnu are not destroyed for a day, the Han and the Han emperor will not be able to sleep well, because the Xiongnu have been pressing on the heads of the Han people for too long and too long, even in a dream will be frightened. So, for the Han people, the best Huns are the dead Huns. This time the three-way army attacked the Xiongnu, Liu Che made a lot of determination, even with the support of the Han Qianzhuang, the treasury was still stretched. If you win this battle, you can say everything, if you lose! Since Liu Che, everyone will be the sinners of the Han.

Su Ren deeply understood this, so he took every step very carefully. The test was not Su Ren's temporary idea, it was also a decision he made after thinking about it for a long time. The cannon is indeed a good thing, but the inferior forging process of the Great Han is completely less than one millionth of that of later generations. The cast bronze cannon looked majestic, but Su Ren knew that this thing was actually a disposable. Judging from previous experiments, there has not been a single statue that can be fired 100 times without exploding.

The Huns did not move for three or five days, and Su Ren anxiously paced back and forth in the room. Money and food are needed to fight wars, and they are endless. War is actually a gold-swallowing beast, no matter how rich a country is, there will always be a day when it will be devoured, it depends on whether their generals can completely defeat the enemy before spending the last copper plate.

Don't say that millet plus rifles defeated the evil enemy, you must know how much supplies the rice country helped us back then, how much money we owe the rice country, and why the great leader obeyed the command of the international community, just because people are rich and willing to pay for the war.

Han Qing broke in in with a dusty hand, holding a bamboo slip in his hand. Su Ren hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, has there been any movement from the Huns?" ”

Han Qing nodded heavily: "Yes, the king of Juntun is gathering his soldiers and horses, and it seems that he will attack Yanmen within three days." ”

Su Ren let out a sigh: "I've finally been fooled, immediately order everyone to get ready, this time there must be no accidents, we can't afford to survive!" Li Cheng's military funds have been spent, and if the Huns don't do it again, we will have to go out of the customs to find the Huns for a decisive battle. ”

"There shouldn't be a problem, the news also says that the Huns are not much better than ours, because of the white disaster last winter, the Huns didn't bring much livestock this time, and they were more anxious than us."

"People must be nomadic, now that spring has begun, the grass has sprouted, people can still hold on, let's be more passive."

Woo ......, bursts of horns sounded outside the Yanmen Pass, and the soldiers standing on the wall were taken aback by the scene in front of them. Looking at the city from the top of the city, the eyes are full of black pressed human heads, passing through the horizon in waves, and the scene is unimaginably huge. After a rough estimate, in front of the situation, the Huns had 80,000 if not 100,000.

Su Ren and his officers were all standing at the head of the city, looking at the scene in front of them, no one spoke, and the atmosphere of the imminent start of the war was depressing but exciting. Xie Baichuan closed his eyes and took a deep breath: "I haven't seen such a spectacular appearance yet, the Huns are likely to come from the nest this time, the old decay can catch up, and the heavens are not thin on the decay, even if they die in battle, they can be blinded." ”

Lei was nodded: "General Xie said well, it is not in vain to meet such a big war in my life, not to mention that I have met it twice, I can be blinded, if I am lucky enough to live and can meet people, I can boast about one or two, no one has a grandfather!" Hahaha......"

"Hahaha......" Xie Baichuan laughed along: "Captain Lei, how about you and I make an appointment?" ”

"About what?"

"If the old man unfortunately dies in battle, the old and young in the family hope that Lei Duwei will take care of him more, if Lei Duwei is unlucky, the old man will ensure that your Lei family is rich and noble!"

"Smack!" The palms of the two men collided heavily together, looking at each other and laughing. Then, the generals, captains, and captains on the entire city wall were laughing, laughing so arrogantly that Su Ren was almost infected.

Glancing at the herald behind him, the herald immediately stood up and waved the red flag in his hand vigorously. In an instant, the city wall of Yanmen Pass seemed to be alive, and I don't know where thousands of soldiers came out, and hurried to their positions under the leadership of their superiors. The generals, captains, and lieutenants in front of him laughed and saluted with fists, and returned to their positions with their men and horses.

A fast horse with the royal banner of the king of Juntun quickly passed out of the Hun camp, rushed towards the Yanmen Pass, there were still a hundred steps away from the Yanmen Pass, raised the royal flag high, and an arrow passed through his throat just a mouth. The Hun cavalry did not make the slightest sound, and fell from his horse. The king's banner fell into the dust, and became filthy after being trampled twice by the overwhelmed war horse.

Five hundred steps is the place where the Xiongnu army stopped, this is the garrison line determined by the king of Juntun according to the news received a few days ago, in this position can ensure that the secret weapon of the Han people will not hurt their own army, but it increases the difficulty of their own siege. Seeing that his herald was shot to death by the Han people, the king of Juntun gritted his teeth with hatred, which was the Han people telling themselves that there was no need to talk to each other, and it also showed that this battle would be very cruel.

Glancing up at the high sun, King Juntun knew that a large part of his men would not be able to see the afternoon sunset, but he could only do that. If the Han people were not completely defeated, the king of Juntun would not be able to explain to Yi Zhixian, let alone gather other tribes to fulfill his wishes.

Turning his head to look at the handsome man wearing leather armor beside him, King Juntun gritted his teeth: "Are you sure that there will not be many secret weapons of the Han people?" ”

Luan laughed: "It's all at this time, the king is still hesitating?" You must know that before the war, the most taboo commander hesitated, and the king did not do a good job with the kid in the year. ”

King Juntun snorted coldly: "Don't say that this matter has nothing to do with you, I have already found out your identity, the reason why I support me and Su Yiyi so much is not because of the hatred of your warlocks?" Don't get excited, I'm not done yet. King Juntun stared at Luan Da's hand stretched out to his waist, and smiled slightly: "So the two of us are just using each other, as long as you can help me get what I want, I will definitely hand Su Ren into your hands!" We Great Huns speak a word, and we will never lie to you! ”

Luan Da let go of his hand and restrained the murderous aura on his face: "Since that's the case, let's start?" I don't want to wait too long. ”

The horn is the most common way for the Huns to deliver messages, and according to the length and tactfulness of the horn sound, the things explained are also very different. The sound of the trumpet just now was melodious and high-pitched, it was the clarion call for attack. The Huns slowly got off their horses and packed up their equipment and weapons. They were very unaccustomed to standing on the ground and fighting the enemy, preferring to gallop on horseback, but today they were forced to confront the Han people in the way they least liked.

Yi Zhixian and King Juntun have both thought of using the oldest and most effective way to deal with the Han people, but this time is different, this time the Han people have entered their territory, if it is still the same as before, how many pastures will be destroyed, how many cattle and sheep will be lost? This is what they don't want to see, and they have no choice but to use their least favorite method to attack the Han people, and these Hun soldiers must go west as soon as possible after capturing Yanmen Pass, otherwise Wei Qing and Li Guang will really enter their territory.

Howling was a method used by the Huns to drive sheep and also to drive wolves. Howling while riding their horses shows their strong physique and superb horsemanship, and can also intimidate enemies and beasts that dare to oppose them. Today's howl is really not as fierce as before, symbolically shouted a few voices, seeing that the city wall of Yanmen Pass is still far away, no one wants to shout, and strives to rush to Yanmen Pass with his own lap legs.

Liu Jian's archer battalion was the first wave of power to stop the Xiongnu, just when the Huns were glad that they were not strangled by the secret weapons of the Han people, a puff of arrows flew high from the wall of Yanmen Pass, at this time the Huns were still 300 steps away from Yanmen Pass.

King Juntun stood on the high ground at the rear of the army, and here he could overlook the entire battlefield: "Can the Han people's bows and arrows shoot three hundred paces? ”

Luan Da shook his head: "As far as I know, it is absolutely impossible, the strongest foot bow in the Han army is only two hundred, this is already the best bow and arrow, and there are only a few people who can shoot arrows two hundred and fifty steps away with a five-stone hard bow, and there is no more powerful arrow." ”

"Why do the Han people shoot arrows now? Are they so many arrows that they deliberately humiliate us? ”

Before King Juntun and Luan had finished speaking, terrible screams and shouts came from the place of battle. The arrows of the Han people were sprinkled on the Huns like raindrops, and they could not stop the rain of arrows with a small round shield, so they could only fall down in waves, howling miserably one by one.

"This ......" Han Qing frowned, and it took a long time to stretch out: "Sir's recurve bow research has been successful?" ”

Su Ren took a sip of tea and nodded with a smile: "This is not my achievement, it is the result of three years of research by the Mo family in the academy, which was reserved for the war with the Huns, and was the first to be used by me." ”

"This is a sacred object, with the recurve bow, we are no longer afraid of the cavalry charge of the Huns! Before they can get closer, you can shoot them all under the horse! ”

"There are pros and cons, although the recurve bow is powerful, it is difficult to control and produce, in the past three years, the Mo family has only made five thousand, and there are four thousand equipped for Wei Qing and General Li, and we only have one thousand here, if it is damaged, there is not even a spare one." Turned over and said to the herald: "Go, tell Liu Jian, let him save some use, and when the Huns rush to the city, there are still good things waiting for them!" ”
