Chapter 102: The Sandpiper and the Clam Fight

Taiyuan Qi County, Qi County Pass. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

On the upper floor of Qixian County, the smoke and dust that rolled up from afar and the troops that appeared in the field of vision one after another made Chen Duwei feel terrified, there, not only cavalry, but also what scared him more was that there were some simple siege equipment, Chen Duwei closed his eyes in despair, since the retreat to the border and rest, the Huns have been chasing after each other, Wu County, Zhongdu, Jingling, and the resistance are constantly resisting, and they are defeated and retreating until Qi County, looking at the other party's men and horses, I am afraid that there are not still twenty or thirty thousand people.

The boundary of the Xiongguan, proud of the state, too shou Wang Hui to block the invasion of the Huns in the east of the river to spend great efforts to build the Xiongguan, more elite soldiers 5,000 garrison, not to say that a lifetime galloping on horseback of the Huns, even the Central Plains foot soldiers who are good at attacking the city and plundering the village also do not want to set foot in the Jiexiu Pass.

No matter how strong the castle was, it couldn't withstand being attacked from the inside, and Wang Xu rashly went out of the city with 4,000 soldiers to fight, ruining the lives of 4,000 young people, and also ruining the hope of holding on to the realm. Chen Duwei fought bloodily, but had no choice but to retreat to Wu County to continue to organize local county soldiers to resist the attack of the Xiongnu, and at the same time sent people to report to Taiyuan urgently.

Wu County is located in the middle, there is a border in front of Xiuxiong Pass to guard, so the city defense is not very important, the city is low and shallow to block the bandits, and it is a bit unsatisfactory to resist the Huns, and where did these Huns steal from, they actually made some simple engineering equipment, although in Chen Duwei's opinion, it is not very good, it can be used to deal with a small county like Wu County, it is more than enough.

The combat effectiveness of the county soldiers is low, and they have rarely seen blood on the battlefield, and when they see the black and oppressive Hun cavalry under the city, their legs are weak, let alone fighting with the enemy, so Chen Duwei can only organize a team of 1,000 people by means of iron and blood. The Xiongnu bravely attacked repeatedly, and with the help of siege equipment, they easily tore apart the resistance organized by Chen Duwei.

It is tantamount to a fool's dream to block the footsteps of the Huns with a pass in a county town, and the purpose of Chen Duwei is to use the pass along the way to delay the pace of the Huns as much as possible, and strive for Taiyuan to make a decision.

But this is all to Qi County, and it is also the last pass to resist the pace of the Huns, and then it will be a horse Pingchuan, the Huns iron cavalry can be under the city of Jinyang in an instant, Taiyuan still did not send a soldier, or even a piece of paper or an order, is it that Taishou did not receive his own report, Chen Duwei shook his head, and began to give no less than five orders in a row from the boundary pass, picking up and expediting, it is impossible for Taishou not to receive his own letter for help, the only thing that worries Chen Duwei is that something unpredictable happened in Jinyang.

When the desperate Chen Duwei opened his eyes, he could no longer see any negative emotions in his eyes, instead there was a blank scene, and the guards who followed him had not yet recovered from the shock, staring blankly at the enemies that were constantly surging under the city, his hands subconsciously grasping the city bricks, and his nails rattling on the hard city bricks.

"Prepare for battle, the enemy is going to attack the city!" Chen Duwei casually pulled out a spear on the instrument rack beside him. The soldiers in the city were also stunned by the sudden appearance of the enemy under the city, and the silence of the city was like death.

Chen Duwei was furious, ran to the side of the city tower in a few steps, picked up the drum and beat the war drum desperately, "Soldiers, the Huns are here, pick up the weapons in your hands and prepare for battle!" For the sake of relatives, for the sake of his wife and children, and for our beautiful home", he waved his arms and beat the drum, his long hair fluttered, and the soldiers in the city were awakened by the sound of the drums.

"Kill the Huns!"

"Kill the dog!"

The crowd shouted in unison.

"Soldiers, Qi County is very important, behind us is Jinyang City, Taishou and many Taiyuan people are watching us, reinforcements are on the way, as long as we hold on for one day, we can win!" Chen Duwei climbed the city tower, raised his arms and shouted.

Liu Bao stood under the city of Qi County, and couldn't help but feel proud in his heart, Qi County, if it was his, Jinyang was also beckoning to him, and Taiyuan would also be included in his own bag as he wished, I am here in the Central Plains, you tremble, see my Hun iron horse walking all over the rivers and mountains, for the Central Plains!

In a short period of time, he took the boundary and closed the pass with a strange plan, and conquered it successively, Wu County, Zhongdu, Jingling, and finally the pass in front of him, and 20,000 elites won Qi County, which was guarded by more than 1,000 people.

After a while, the Huns and horses rushed out, because it was attacking the city tower, the war horses had lost their effect, and the Huns all dismounted and fought on foot, holding weapons, carrying cloud ladders, and running to Qi County with a roar.

If Taiyuan wanted to be saved, reinforcements had already come, and until now, Chen Duwei also understood, and he had already embraced the heart of death, and smiled left and right, "Brothers, we are going to die, before we die, let's pull a few more cushions!" More than 100 people howled in unison, their faces showing a hideous look, left and right are dead, so let's find a few more companions before we die.

The dense sound of bows and arrows broke the pre-battle silence, and powerful arrows shot into the crowd, and the dense crowd of the Huns was immediately shot down in a large area.

Not to be outdone, the Huns rode out with a thousand horses, the cavalry was fast, galloped to the city dozens of paces, opened the bow and led the arrows, suppressed the shooting on the fort, the sound of arrows whistling, these barbarians were all excellent archery, very accurate, the soldiers in the city did not pay attention to it, they would be hit by the arrow, although there was armor to block, but if they were shot in the face of the door, it would also be killed by a blow. Wounded soldiers began to appear in large numbers in the city.

The archers fired only about two rounds of arrows, and the besiegers rushed to the bottom of the city, and the ladder was erected, and the Hun soldiers began to climb up the ladder like ants.

"Let go of the wood!"

The soldiers defending the city pulled the rope violently, and the wood hanging on the battlement plate fell to the ground with a loud sound, and the autumn wind swept the leaves to beat the enemy on the ladder generally, and the people who were directly hit down by the wood were broken and bones, and they could not die anymore, so they were lucky to avoid the wood, but they fell from a place of about ten meters high, and it was inevitable to break their hands and feet, and in a blink of an eye, there was an extra layer of corpses and a group of screaming wounded soldiers under the city wall.

"Prepare the stones!" Chen Duwei yelled. "Smash me!" There are too many enemies under the city, you don't need to look, just throw a stone down and you can hit the enemy. A group of soldiers picked up the stone and rushed forward.

"Archers, archers, give me the suppression of the opposing cavalry!"

After a fierce attack, the Taiyuan soldiers suffered heavy casualties and lost their sharpness, a large number of Huns climbed the city tower along the ladder, and occupied the city tower in an instant, Qi County fell only in an instant, looking at the fallen soldiers around him, Chen Duwei's heart was like a knife, and he roared, "The big husband is dead, what are you afraid of, kill the enemy with me"! Holding his war knife high and slamming down on the Hun soldiers, seven or eight spears instantly passed through his chest, and blood bubbled out along the corners of his mouth.

Chen Duwei's eyes widened until he died, looking in the direction of Jinyang, as if to say, "My lord, I did my best"!

Stepping on the bright red blood, Liu Bao stood on the upper floor of Qixian County, and exhaled in the wind, "It's so dangerous"!

During the attack on Zhongdu, Liu Bao received the news that Jiexiu Pass had missed and Hu Chuquan had died in battle.

The commanders under his command have said that if they give up Zhongdu and return to Jiexiu immediately to attack Jiexiu, otherwise if Qixian is blocked by Taiyuan, it will be difficult to fly even if they have wings, and 20,000 Hun athletes will be buried in this sheep's head mountain.

Liu Bao hated Hu Chuquan very much, if he hadn't died, he would have to break it into pieces after he went back, even if he was his father's own brother, he would never be soft. Thousands of instructions to him to guard the boundary, the front foot just left, the back foot was lost to me, this is not only related to the 20,000 Huns but also related to the future of the Southern Huns, the face of the father, because of his negligence completely destroyed.

Time is life, Liu Bao can't be allowed to think too much, and ordered to give up Zhongdu and return to the realm immediately, taking advantage of the fact that the party has not yet gained a firm foothold, and he was caught off guard.

At this moment, a slight muttering voice from a thousand commanders suddenly stopped Liu Bao, "Isn't it for the girl that the little prince arrested?"

Liu Bao was suddenly happy in his heart, the commander of the thousand may not know but Liu Bao knows, just when he left the realm, he vaguely remembered that the old man called himself Cai Yong, who Cai Yong was in the Huns, everyone shook their heads and didn't know this person, but in the Central Plains, no one knew who didn't know, the famous generation of Hongru Cai Zhonglang and Cai everyone, and the woman who made Liu Bao obsessed should be the first talented woman in the Han Dynasty - Cai Yan. Shangdang is not just here for Cai Yan, it should be for Cai Yong.

No one can think of their own goals, Wang Hui can't do it, Zhang Quan can't either, no one from the Central Plains! Because this plan is a shocking plan that the Huns have not dared to think of for hundreds of years! As long as this plan is successful, the Han Dynasty will become the back garden of the Huns!

Liu Bao immediately turned his horse's head, commanded the Xiongnu soldiers to race against time to attack Zhongdu, and even sent people to build some simple siege equipment for the Han people, so as to get out of Qi County as soon as possible.
