Chapter 0138: The Huns' Radical General's Law
On the city of Yinguan, there are only 300 defenders left, and almost all of them are painted.
But no one went down to heal or rest.
If you want to die, you will die on the head of the city!
This is the oath made by all the soldiers of the defending army.
The strong men had long been prepared to be martyred, but on their faces, in addition to the determination to defend the territory to the death, there was also a fearless ease.
They even bet on the number of wounds on their bodies, and those with fewer wounds wanted to contribute the feather arrows of the Huns they collected to the winner.
"Commander!"
The last warrior sent to the Shangdang for help has returned.
The siege of the Xiongnu outside the city was tighter, and the warriors who broke through the enemy camp on their own were wounded.
However, what he brought back was the news that made Yang Yanzhao completely desperate - Shangdang Zhang Yangbu was stationed in Nie County, Shangdang County, saying that he was waiting for fighters!
"Hehe......"
Yang Yanzhao didn't even scold, only laughed softly indifferently.
Nie County, located at the junction of Shangdang County and Taiyuan County, and Yanmen, separated by the entire Taiyuan County, is still 700 miles away from the Yin Pavilion.
Zhang Yang had no intention of coming to the rescue at all.
The last glimmer of hope for reinforcements is gone.
However, this time, Yang Yanzhao did not behave abnormally in the slightest, and he did not hide it from the brothers in the city. The three hundred mighty men of the city, like their commanders, smiled contemptuously at them.
"Come, I'll teach everyone to practice using the Huns' feather arrows."
The bows used by the Xiongnu were much smaller than those of the Han army, and the feathered arrows they used were one-third shorter.
Yang Yanzhao personally demonstrated to his brothers how to use the Han army's longbow to shoot the Xiongnu's feather arrows with the greatest power......
……
The Xiongnu under the city repeatedly attacked the city and were repeatedly defeated.
The Yin Pavilion could not be attacked for a long time, which was unexpected by the Huns.
The delay in the arrival of reinforcements from the Han army was even more unexpected.
And the death of the thousand households of the Subu clan made the Xiongnu determined to break through the Yin Pavilion and slaughter all the Han people to avenge the Subu clan!
However, a simple and brutal siege method can only bring more casualties.
The Xiongnu have begun to suspect that the group of Han troops guarding the Yin Pavilion are not people, but divine soldiers descending from the sky!
In the astrology of the Xiongnu, the Big Dipper is also known as the Seven Lang Stars. And the sixth star, that is, the Liulang Star, is the star monarch who guards Yan You.
The land of Yan is the boundary between the Han people in the south of the desert and the Xiongnu in the north of the desert. Liulang Star is the guardian star of Yan You, that is, the door god who prevented the Xiongnu from invading China in the south!
The Xiongnu had already learned that the one who commanded the defenders of the Yin Pavilion was Yang Yanzhao, a small colonel in the Han army. It's just that the Huns also inquired that this Yang Yanzhao ranks sixth among the brothers of the same clan, and is known as Yang Liulang!
This Yang Liulang can't be the incarnation of the Heavenly Liulang Star Nether, right?
Otherwise, how could he have such amazing courage and energy, leading the weak Han army to hold on to the Yin Pavilion for half a month.
However, no matter what, the Xiongnu have made up their minds that they must break through the Yin Pavilion! Yang Yanzhao must be captured alive!
Even if he is the lower realm of Liulang Star, he must cut his heart and drink his blood to repay the kindness of the soldiers!
……
The wind is cold, and the beacon fire is cold
The wolf smoke is rising, and Dickor is guilty
The strong man is conscripted and will not return
Father, mother, wife and children are not sad, and Bian Sai'an ......
A tragic song resounded on the city walls.
This is not a masterpiece of the previous life, nor is it from the students, this is the voice of the border soldiers, and it is a vulgar song sung by the border soldiers of the past generations.
Yang Yanzhao is strict in governing the army, but now, he will not restrict the strong men from doing anything.
There was a shortage of medical treatment, and the injuries of the strong men defending the city were getting worse day by day. The only thing they could do except wait for the next attack of the Huns was to lie there quietly and sing this little song that had been passed down for hundreds of years.
The defenders of the city have long since ignored the pain, and they have also ignored life and death.
They even hoped that the Huns would soon launch another attack, so that they could kill a few more enemies with their own hands while they still had strength!
……
"Commander! The Huns shouted under the city! ”
Under the city, a Hun soldier who was proficient in Chinese stood outside the city and shouted loudly: "Yang Yanzhao, the general of the Han army in the city, listen, support the plough fox and Shan Yu'er to open the city immediately and surrender!" ”
Yang Yanzhao resisted the Xiongnu at the border pass for a long time, and knew that "Supporting the Plough Fox" was the honorific name of the Xiongnu Shan Yu. In the Xiongnu language, "plough" means "heaven", and "fox" means "son". "Support the plough fox Tu Shan Yu", and the Han "Son of Heaven" agreed.
Loyal to the Yang Gate, loyal to the Chinese Han court, how can you listen to the words of "supporting the plough and the fox"!
"Brothers, pay attention to how I use the Hun short arrow."
Yang Yanzhao slowly took a short-pole feather arrow used by the Huns, suddenly raised his arm and stretched his bow, quickly stretched the longbow halfway, and quickly launched it!
Shout!
The short-pole feather arrows were as fast as the long-pole feather arrows as the wind, flying and shouting to the Huns!
Shouting that the Huns were caught off guard, the feather arrow hit its chest!
But the distance was too far, and the Huns were wearing thick leather clothes, and the feather arrows could not take their lives, but could only shoot through their skins.
But the shouting Hun was so frightened that he fell off his horse.
The Huns in the back hurriedly dragged it back to their headquarters.
Seeing Yang Yanzhao standing proudly at the head of the city, he rushed forward a few steps on his horse, speaking stiff Chinese, and shouted at Yang Yanzhao: "General Yang, support the plough and fox Tu Dan to respect your loyalty and bravery, so as to give you a way out, if you refuse to surrender, look here!" ”
The Xiongnu beckoned, and a group of Xiongnu escorted a group of Han prisoners.
These Han people are all old and weak people in the vicinity, who did not return to the city because they did not give up their homes, but were captured by the Xiongnu.
"If you don't surrender, every half an hour, we will kill ten Han people until you surrender!"
"Damn! Shameful! ”
Yang Yanzhao finally couldn't hold it back and scolded loudly. No wonder the Huns did not attack the city in the past two days, and went to captivate the innocent old and weak people, trying to use this as a hostage to force the defenders of the Yin Pavilion to surrender!
"When two countries are at war, there is no shame, only victory and defeat! We don't care if you are Yang Yanzhao or Liulang Star in the sky, if you don't fall, you will be killed! "If you don't surrender, kill all your compatriots first, and then slaughter Yinguan City!" Now let you see, the fate of not surrendering! ”
After that, the Huns waved their hands right, and the scimitars in the hands of the ten Huns drew a dazzling cold light, and ten innocent Han people died tragically!
Yang Yanzhao almost crumbled the bricks of the city wall into powder, his eyes were furious, and his cheeks trembled.
"Half an hour later, I will kill someone!"
After the Huns finished speaking, the circle horse circled around the corpses of innocent people, and turned the horse back to the camp.
"I'm out of town!"
Yang Yanzhao's eyes were almost bleeding, and he strode down the city with a golden spear of Su Yingchi.
In the past half a month, except for the night attack on the enemy camp, he once again walked down the city wall.
Qiao Zhong rushed up and stopped Yang Yanzhao. "General Yanzhao, you can't go, this is the Huns' tactic, just to lure you out of the city!"
Yang Yanzhao raised his hand suddenly, and he, who had always been calm and polite, reached out rudely for the first time to stop others from talking. "Needless to say, it's a plan, and so-and-so will be killed out of the city!"
