Chapter 103: Cavalry Siege

Zhang Xiang swore an oath in the county city by bloody means, Zhang Xiang knew that he had offended the Huns by doing so, so he was waiting for the Huns' counterattack! As long as you get through this level, the rest will be fine.

Zhang Xiang did not forget the leader's younger brother, and waited for the revenge of the Huns and horse bandits, but the Huns did not come for a long time, Zhang Xiang thought that this matter would pass so simply, after all, the rules of the grassland are very cruel, and the fathers and sons often fight each other between brothers.

Maybe the relationship between the dead Huns and the bandit leaders was not so good, or maybe these horse bandits were afraid of themselves, no matter what, since the war did not happen, then it was a good thing for the time being.

But Zhang Xiang also knew that this was just the calm before the rainstorm, how could he endure such a big loss with the arrogant personality of the Hu people, how could the Xiangfei army not be very well-informed when he first arrived, so when Zhang Xiang knew the news of the Huns' attack, the Hun cavalry was already very close to the county town.

It turned out that it was not those Hun horse bandits who did not act, but they went back to move the rescue troops, in fact, Zhang Xiang Hun horse bandits still have to thank Zhang Xiang, if Zhang Xiang had not slaughtered all the Huns in the county, these horse bandits would not have been able to move so many cavalry.

There are more than 10,000 cavalry, which is also a rare large-scale movement of the Huns in recent years, and the neighboring Wuheng people and Xianbei people also made a special investigation, knowing that the Hun cavalry entered Yanmen County, they relaxed their vigilance.

Huba is the leader of the Hun horse bandits, and the person who died in the county town is his dear brother, who was born as a slave and has suffered a lot since he was a child, and has always been dependent on his younger brother.

Therefore, the relationship between their brothers is much better than that of ordinary Hu brothers, so when he heard that his younger brother died in the county town, he was very angry and wanted to attack the county town immediately.

But in the end, Kuba was not carried away by anger, and Huba changed from a small slave to a horse bandit with more than 1,000 people under his command, relying on his calm and forbearance like a wolf.

He knew that attacking the heavily guarded county town with his own strength was useless to hit a stone with an egg, so he simply went back and moved the rescue soldiers, and it happened that Zhang Xiang's actions inadvertently helped him, so he could be so beautiful.

Of course, Khuba is not the leader of this temporary cavalry, but he is the vanguard officer of this Hun cavalry, and his status has changed greatly, as long as Khuba can capture the county this time.

He will retain this identity, because the leader of this Xiongnu cavalry is Zayag, he is the wolf head of a medium-sized Xiongnu tribe, and this time it is his reinforcements that will gather more than 10,000 cavalry.

This is also to blame Zhang Xiang for not inquiring clearly before doing things, Zayag's son was also in the county town at that time, and his fate can be imagined, Huba killed his younger brother Zayag died of his son, and the two sides can be said to hit it off.

Zayag is not familiar with the terrain, so he will cooperate with Khuba, otherwise with Khuba's identity, Zayag is really eye-catching, but when Zayag came into contact with Khuba, he found that he was still very powerful.

simply made a mistake, and took advantage of the situation to recruit Kuba, who also attached great importance to this opportunity, both to avenge his younger brother and to gain a future, even if there was no benefit to him, he would do it.

Besides, he had been eyeing Xiang Feijun's net worth for a long time, otherwise he wouldn't have let his younger brother go into the city to check, but unfortunately it leaked, and now Kuba doesn't know why his younger brother died.

If he knew that his younger brother had just become a tool for Zhang Xiang to kill chickens and monkeys, how would he feel more angry than now, and Zhang Xiang was also surprised when he received an attack from cavalry.

It's not that Zhang Xiang was unprepared, after all, Zhang Xiang killed a lot of Huns overnight, and he had long realized that the Huns would retaliate, but he didn't expect that there would be so many cavalry, which was not reasonable at all.

How did this group of Hun cavalry pass through the border of the Han Dynasty silently, Zhang Xiang didn't hear any movement in advance, Zhang Xiang suddenly smelled the smell of being calculated, it seems that someone has done something to him.

Zhang Xiang also expressed his opinion like Yang Xu, but Yang Xu replied with an ambiguous answer, "My lord, we are new to the state, and we don't know whose interests we have infringed on, so let's solve the difficulties in front of us now!" ”

Zhang Xiang didn't get a satisfactory answer from Yang Xu, and he was a little disappointed, but thinking about it, Yang Xu is not a god and doesn't know everything, so it seems that he can only fight head-on.

On the west gate of the county seat, Zhang Xiang waited at the head of the city with all the generals, looking at the sand rolled up in the distance, he knew that the Hun cavalry was not far away, Zhang Xiang would not kill out of the city to face the battle, and the power of the cavalry could not be underestimated.

Especially the large-scale cavalry, this is also the first time that the Xiangfei Army has encountered such an opponent, and there is no confidence in his heart, fortunately, Zhang Xiang's side is defending the city, otherwise I am afraid that there will be a situation of cowardice before fighting.

The Hun cavalry finally came into Zhang Xiang's eyes, once the cavalry exceeded 10,000, the momentum he exuded would have a big change, giving people a visual impact and feeling that there was no end.

Zhang Xiang has also faced tens of thousands of Yellow Turban thieves, but they are not as shocked as the more than 10,000 cavalry in front of them, just 10,000 more than 10,000 war horses, but it is indeed a bit incredible to give Zhang Xiang such a feeling.

No wonder the number of cavalry can represent the strength of a force, the Hun cavalry rushed to the city wall without saying a word, Zhang Xiang suddenly had an illusion that these cavalry could rush to the city.

Although Zhang Xiang knew that this was impossible, he did have such a thought in his heart, and even he thought it was ridiculous, when the Huns approached the head of the city one hundred and fifty paces, Zhang Xiang ordered his soldiers to shoot arrows.

This was Zhang Xiang's previous experience in defending the city, but he found that these experiences were not applicable to the cavalry, the speed of the cavalry was very fast, and the rain of arrows of the Xiangfei army did not cause many casualties to the Huns.

On the contrary, the Huns accelerated their speed and quickly approached the city wall, and the effective range of the Xiangfei Army's bow and arrow was one hundred and fifty paces, but because the Xiangfei Army's condescending range would be fifty steps more, Zhang Xiang would let the soldiers shoot arrows at one hundred and fifty paces.

If it is infantry, the effect will be very good, but the effect of cavalry is a bit unsatisfactory, Zhang Xiang also understood that to deal with cavalry, it will be more effective or even farther when the cavalry is two hundred steps away from the city wall at the latest.

Let's eat a trench and grow wise! The battlefield is indeed the best place for the commander to learn, the Xiongnu carried out cavalry shooting when they approached the city wall a hundred paces, the Xiongnu's counterattack was very sharp, and the archery was very accurate.

A round of cavalry shooting caused a large number of casualties in the Xiangfei Army, so that the soldiers of the Xiangfei Army did not dare to raise their heads, so they could only be behind the city wall, and Zhang Xiang at this time was no different from ordinary soldiers.

After a few rounds of cavalry shooting, the Xiongnu stopped attacking, which made Zhang Xiang very strange, and then Zhang Xiang heard a shout outside the city, "Who dares to come out to fight the Han people in Luyuan." ”

Lu Yuan is Zayag's cronies, and he has been unconvinced since Khuba arrived under Zayag, and he can't wait to jump out when he finally has the opportunity, wanting Zayag to see his ability.

When Zhang Xiang heard that this was going to fight! It seems that these Huns are really underestimating people, at this time they actually gave up their good at archery and chose to fight generals, really deceived me Xiangfei Army no one?

The generals also asked for battle, not only Zhang Xiang and the generals also knew that the few rounds of cavalry shooting just now had caused the morale of the army to plummet, and if the morale was not improved through fighting in the future, the next battle to defend the city would be difficult.

At this time, the generals did not fantasize about going out of the city to face the battle, after all, they had seen the Hun cavalry shooting, and they also had self-knowledge, so they also knew that the next battle would definitely be the battle to defend the city.

In the end, Zhang Xiang chose Zhang Fei, in fact, Long Ben is not bad, but unfortunately when it comes to boosting morale, Zhang Fei's fighting style is more suitable, the lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, and Zhang Xiang will never allow any accidents this time.

So Zhang Xiang chose his most trusted Zhang Fei, Zhang Fei was also behind the city wall just now, and he had already held back the fire, at this time he heard Zhang Xiang let him fight, and went down to the city without saying a word.

People who are familiar with Zhang Fei in the army know that Zhang Fei, who did not shout, is the most terrifying, and Zhang Fei is in this state at this time, the gate of the county town is open, and Zhang Fei rushes out on Xiao Xiao.

Lu Yuan didn't look at anyone, but stared at Xiao Xiao under Zhang Fei's crotch, and blurted out, "Black man, as long as you give me these war horses, I will let you live." ”

Everyone in the city, including Zhang Xiang, looked at Lu Yuan with the eyes of a dead man, and asked Zhang Fei for Xiao Xiao, even Zhang Xiang didn't dare to open his mouth for fear of being beaten, Zhang Fei heard Lu Yuan's words, and his eyes were bloodshot.

This time, Lu Yuan really offended Zhang Fei miserably and didn't know it, Lu Yuan also fantasized about killing Zhang Fei easily and showing off his might in front of Kuba, but unfortunately his fantasy could not be realized in the end.

Zhang Fei stabbed straight at Lu Yuan with a Zhangba spear, Lu originally thought that he would easily block it, but he underestimated Zhang Fei's strength too much, even Long Ben would not block Zhang Fei's stab head-on at this moment.

Zhang Fei's strength is already big and has a slight momentum, in addition to surpassing Zhang Fei in strength, such an attack will only end up with one word death, and obviously this Luyuan does not have this power.

He could only watch as the spear passed through his chest, and Zhang Fei threw Lu Yuan far away and shouted, "Yanren Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide are here, who dares to come out to fight." ”

Zayag then sent several warriors from the tribe, but in the end they all died under Zhang Fei's spear, and at this time, Kuba did not make a rash move, and it was indeed a good thing to ask for battle in front of Zayag.

But it's not a good thing if he can't come back, and Kuba doesn't have the confidence to defeat this Zhang Fei, so naturally he pretends not to hear or see, Zayag is angry and sends a large number of cavalry to strangle Zhang Fei, and Zhang Fei can only be forced to return to the city when he sees this posture.
