In later generations, there was a Caucasian country that liked to impose sanctions on others, and such sanctions were tried and tested. How have these Hu people ever seen such a hooligan practice, after listening to Niu Quan's words, they all looked at each other dumbfounded, and they were stunned all of a sudden.
There were also a few Hu people who cautiously asked, "What about Yuwentai in Shangrao County?" Shangjun County imposed economic sanctions on us, and Yuwentai is also a Hu person, so he shouldn't be able to see death without help. ”
Niu Quan sneered: "The imperial court has also thought of this, that Yuwentai only recognizes the immediate interests, and when the time comes, the imperial court will spend a lot of money to buy various materials for him, and he will make money, will he sell those necessities of life to the Yongji Canal, which is far away?" ”
The Hu people present scolded again, but this time, the Hu people's arrogance was much smaller than before. Some of these eye-catching Hu people asked, "Outside the cow, what do you say we should do?" ”
Niu Quan's eyes flashed, and he said in a cold tone: "I said, show the enemy weakness, let the officers and soldiers of the imperial court think that Yongjiqu is easy to bully, and when they send a large army to conquer Yongjiqu, we will show our true strength, those officers and soldiers will definitely underestimate the enemy, when the time comes, we will annihilate the enemy, effectively weaken the strength of Shangjun County, and then take Shangjun County in one fell swoop, why not?" ”
"Good!" Some of the Hu people present cheered loudly. The patriarch of the Hu people who spoke before bowed his head and was silent, not because he agreed with Niu Quan's point of view, but because he was really frightened by Su Yi's idea, once Shangjun County imposed economic sanctions on Yongji Canal, he was afraid that Yongji Canal would not be long before the tribes attacked each other due to lack of resources, and then let the Han people break them one by one.
Soon. Under the bewitchment of Niu Quan, the Hu people of Yongjiqu decided to show weakness to the imperial court, and at the same time launched a fierce attack on the southern barren forest.
There are a lot of good cavalry and archery in the Hu people's departments, but the ability to fight in hand-to-hand combat is still a lot worse than the bandits in Taohuazhai, and there is no place for these Hu people to play their riding and archery skills at the other end of the South Wasteland, so a difficult battle broke out in the South Wilderness Forest.
At the other end of the South Wasteland. The horns sounded in unison, and the sound of killing shook the sky.
Countless arrows through the dense jungle, shuttling back and forth, in the shouts of the mountains and seas, the Hu people rushed to the fortifications of the southern barren forest one after another, and the archers of the peach blossom village squatted on the arrow tower, guarded in the earthen fort, and some even squatted in the wooden houses on the trees, condescendingly throwing arrows downward.
Hu Ren looked desperately at the well-defended Southern Barren Forest. Countless sharp arrows poured down from their heads, and these Hu people rushed forward in a frenzied manner, shouting incessantly, trying to lure the bandits out of the southern barren forest and fight them in the open field.
Although the archers of Peach Blossom Village are not as disciplined as the sword and shield soldiers, they are more than enough to deal with those Hu people who are in a mess. The Hu people who attacked were originally from different tribes, and they were intrigued with each other. It doesn't fit very well together.
Compared with the archers of Peach Blossom Village, it is simply inferior to the rabble.
But these Hu people are not useless. Among them, even women and children can shoot arrows, and their archery skills are high, and only He Kui's subordinates can suppress them in archery.
Fortunately, the bandits in Peach Blossom Village survived in such a harsh environment as the vertical and horizontal mountains, and they have long developed a fierce personality that is not afraid of death, and the ferocity of the Hu people on the other side is just the appearance, but the ferocity of these bandits is the most primitive beast nature in the bones.
The Hu people did not even have the most basic siege weapons. With a weapon in his mouth, he clings to the wall outside the South Barren Forest with his hands and feet, like a swarm of crazy ants, constantly clinging to it.
It was Fang Jing who was responsible for holding on, and Su Yi arranged a few capable deputies for him before leaving. He looked coldly at the Hu people who were constantly clinging up, and the blood splashed from the battle on the city wall stained his handsome face, but his heart was cold.
Fang Jing and Li Goudan have been fighting in the vertical and horizontal mountain range for so long, although they have always been a rogue, but they have also experienced dozens of fierce battles, whether it is the degree of tragedy or the courage of the enemy, those fierce rogues are still slightly inferior to these fierce Hu people.
It is no wonder that the Hu people of Yongjiqu have already known the news of Shangjun County's imminent dispatch of troops through Niu Quan, if they can't take the Southern Wasteland Forest before Shangjun County sends troops to Yongjiqu, they will fall into a dilemma of being attacked by the enemy on their backs.
What's more, now the Hu people and the Han people in Youzhou are on the same page, these Hu people are isolated in Youzhou, without the support of Liu Yu, they can't fight against the large-scale Han people, in Youzhou, these Hu people can be said to be a vulnerable group, if it weren't for Yuwentai's consistent strength in Shangrao County, I'm afraid that these Hu people would have been swallowed up by the angry Han people long ago.
But even so, they still had a hard time in Yongjiqu.
Originally, with Liu Yu's support, they could be unscrupulous in Youzhou, but now Liu Yu was forced to shrink in Dongyang County by the Wudoumi Sect, without Liu Yu's support, these Hu people were far less numerous than the Han people, and they also felt a trace of panic in their hearts.
The equipment of this group of Hu people is not even as good as that of ordinary bandits in the vertical and horizontal mountains, they are wearing self-made leather armor, the defense is extremely poor, and the scimitar used is not even as lethal as the knife, the only advantage is that the Hu bow is much better than the hunting bow used by ordinary bandits, whether it is the range or the poundage, they are all abusing ordinary hunting bows, but the Taohuazhai archers are equipped with high-quality iron tire bows.
Although this kind of bow and arrow cannot be fired as quickly as Hu Gong, and the speed of the arrow is much slower than that of Hu Gong, the number of archers in Taohuazhai makes up for this shortcoming, and they take turns to shoot and shoot the Hu people who cling to the city wall and can't raise their heads.
But such a group of poorly equipped Hu people actually made Fang Jing faintly perceive a sense of crisis.
He always felt that there were several pairs of sharp eyes staring at the other end of the Southern Barren Forest, and he looked at it and found nothing abnormal.
Fang Jing had heard that the Hu people had condor shooters, these condor archers were the marksmen among the Hu people, and their archery skills far surpassed He Kui and others, maybe the young man named Zhou Fei that Su Yixin brought back might be able to compete with the Hu people's condor shooters.
Right now, in the southern wilderness, there is no one who can stop those condor shooters.
The battle became more and more fierce, but the Hu people's condor shooters never appeared, and Fang Jing almost couldn't help but set foot on the front line to observe the Hu people's troop deployment, but the uneasiness in his heart still suppressed that impulse.
Fang Jing sighed, the task given to him by Su Yi was to contain the Hu people of Yongji Canal, and he did not ask him to annihilate these Hu people, thinking of this, Fang Jing's hand holding the ghost head knife tightened a little, and refused the request of his subordinates to attack many times, and ordered all the bandits to strictly defend the Southern Wilderness Forest, and without an order, they must not rush out of the Southern Wilderness Forest to fight with the Hu people without an order!
