490 The danger of the Huns
After receiving the olive branch from Wen, Xianbei Khan Kebi knew that the opportunity to eliminate the Xiongnu had come. With the help of Qu Wen, he could completely capture Shan Yuting in one fell swoop before the Huaxia people could react.
Therefore, in July of the twentieth year of the Shengyuan Dynasty, Kebineng gathered more than 100,000 Xianbei iron cavalry, plus 30,000 servants subordinate to the Buyeo Department and Goguryeo, and launched the Khan Mountain Royal Court, and attacked the Xiongnu Shan Yuting.
Receiving the news that the Xianbei army was pressing, the Xiongnu were shocked when they went to Beibei, and on the one hand, they gathered all the men and horses to go to the grassland border to defend against the enemy, and on the other hand, they sent men and horses to the Central Plains to ask Luan Yi for help.
The 120,000 Xiongnu and 130,000 Xianbei allied troops then opened their positions in the Vultures Valley of the Saiwai Grassland, and a total of more than 200,000 cavalry stood on the yellowed grassland in autumn, and the scene was very spectacular.
The majestic howls were incessant, enveloping the entire river valley in a thick killing intent. The war is on the verge of breaking out.
In the early morning of the next day, the two sides lined up in arrays on the east and west sides of the river valley, and the horns symbolizing the charge sounded at the same time, and the two armies rushed towards each other, killing awe-inspiring. The Vulture Valley suddenly turned into a Shura hell dedicated to killing.
Although the Huns were few in number, they fought at home, and the weapons in their hands were exchanged for slaves from Middle-earth, which were sharper and stronger. As the saying goes, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, and sharp spears, iron knives, and strong armor give them a lot of advantages.
However, Xianbei people are not vegetarians. For so many years, they were harassed by the Huns, and many relatives and friends were taken captive by the Huns and became slaves.
The war soon reached a stalemate, and the two military formations were like two brute bulls wrestling, and dozens or even hundreds of lives would fall for each collision.
The endless grassland was stained red with blood, and clusters of blood gathered into small streams that flowed into the river on the south side of the valley, dyeing the entire river red.
Half an hour later, the evenly matched battle took a turn of events, and the Quwen Division, which was stationed on the left flank of the Xiongnu army, suddenly turned against the enemy and turned his scimitar to his own people.
Go to Humility and was shocked, "Go to Wen, what are you going to do?" ”
Go to Wen and said viciously: "What are you doing!" I want your dog to die. ”
"You traitor!" Only then did I know that I had switched to Xianbei to go to Wen, but it was too late. The entire left wing of the army defected, resulting in a great chaos in the position, under the internal and external sandwich, the Huns army was defeated, and it was not easy to get out of the encirclement, only with more than 1,000 cavalry to flee back to Shan Yuting, 120,000 Hun troops, more than 30,000 killed in battle, nearly 90,000 were captured.
Xianbei Kebi was able to take advantage of the situation to pursue, surrounded Shan Yuting, an unreliable earthen city, and began to attack the city frantically overnight.
Qubei led the soldiers and the residents of the city to defend the city, and the battle lasted for two days and two nights, with heavy casualties. The 20,000 defenders were lost, and the people were killed and wounded.
Seeing that Shan Yuting was about to die, he looked at the menacing Xianbei people and the rebellious Huns who stretched out of the city. He knew that with the current situation, maybe tomorrow, maybe Shan Yuting would fall the day after tomorrow, and the only way to save Shan Yuting was to hope that the reinforcements of the Chinese Empire would arrive earlier.
However, although he sent a distress letter to Luan Yi at the first time of the Xianbei invasion, he was defeated too quickly due to the rebellion of Wen, and the Huaxia Empire was thousands of miles away, and he was afraid that he would not be able to survive the arrival of reinforcements.
Thinking of this, I humbled my heart, "Could it be that the Huns founded by the ancestors are going to be destroyed in my hands?" ”
Miao Yu saw the bitterness in his heart through his reddened eyes, and enlightened: "Just rest assured, the Holy Sect will never abandon any believer. The Pope will definitely come to the rescue in time, definitely! ”
"But...... Far water can't quench your thirst! "Go and grab a handful of the battlements of the city wall, leaving a deep scratch on the battlements, "Even if the Pope comes, I'm afraid it will be time to collect the corpses for us." ”
Miao Yu knew that what he said was right, even if the Pope summoned soldiers and horses to come to the rescue as quickly as possible, it would be more than half a month later when he arrived at Shan Yuting. "Now, I can only hope that Our Lady and her old man will bless me."
To be humble and anxious is like an ant on a hot pot, but what is the use of being anxious, you can only put all the spiritual sustenance of survival on the gods, as Miao Yu said, "Our Lady...... Please, save my people! ”
The battle to defend the city lasted from dawn to dark, during which the Xianbei soldiers and horses rushed like a tide, and the Hun soldiers defending the city used bows and crossbows and rolling wood to greet them. Thanks to his friendship with Luan Yi, Qubei also got a hundred jars of high-concentration immortal brew from the Central Plains, which he wanted to dilute to a low degree and sell it to the clansmen, but now with the help of Miao Yu, he put it into bottles and cans to serve as Molotov cocktails and threw them under the city.
Outside the earthen wall of the courtyard turned into a sea of fire in an instant.
However, while the sea of fire caused massive casualties to the Xianbei people, it also destroyed the wall in the thermal expansion and cold contraction.
At the end of the day, several frightening cracks appeared in the already scarred Shan Yuting earthen wall.
"If this continues, tomorrow will really be over." The silver light of the cold moon shone on Qubei's face, highlighting his desolation even more. He very much hopes that everything that has happened around him in the past few days is a dream, in reality he is still a Xiongnu Empire Shan Yu with a strong army, surrounded by beautiful women and wealth, living a luxurious life.
But when he woke up, all his fantasies had become bubbles, and he did not sleep in the luxurious tent of his dreams, but crawled on the cold wall.
"Woo woo woo ......" Hearing the horn of the Xianbei people attacking outside the city, he got up and hid behind the female wall and looked out, "The Xianbei dog is here." Rise up and prepare for the enemy. He drew out the sword that Luan Yi had given him when he ascended the throne, and ran back and forth at the head of the city, calling out to the exhausted soldiers, "Meet the enemy, meet the enemy." Bring some more Molotov cocktails. He said to Miao, who was bandaging the wounds of the wounded soldiers.
"Shan Yu, you forgot. Molotov cocktails were all used up yesterday. Miao Yu responded.
"Hey!" He slapped his head in a hurry, and his gums leaked out, "Then use more stones." ”
"There are not many stones, bows and arrows." There will be a return of the will.
"There should always be wood! If not, demolish the house for me. ”
"Whoa!"
As he spoke, the Xianbei army moved, and columns of cavalry in iron or leather armor poured in the direction of the city.
At the same time, the arrows of the Huns flew out of the city, causing a wave among the Xianbei people, and the people turned on their horses, even if they were not immediately killed by the arrows, they had to be trampled to death by their companions after falling off the horses.
The Xianbei people rushed to more than 60 steps away from the city wall with an arrow array, and with an order, the cavalry drew their bows and arrows, and launched a crazy counterattack with arrow clusters.
The Xianbei people took advantage of the numerical advantage, so that the Huns on the head of the city could not raise their heads, so they could only hide behind the female wall and watch the Xianbei people put the ladder on the city wall. A look of despair emanated from the eyes of the Hun man.
"Brothers, hold on, hold on!" I know that I can't hold on.
He went into battle himself, slashing the Xianbei soldiers who poured into the city like crazy. Relying on the sharp sword, he slashed left and right, and even the people with a knife cut a few meters of Xianbei people into two, the Huns saw that Shan Yu was so brave, but also aroused full blood, and fought back.
On the contrary, when the Xianbei people saw the banner of the Xiongnu Shan Yu, they couldn't help but think of the rich reward after killing the enemy's head.
There will be brave men under the heavy reward, and the Xianbei people have condensed into a trend, and they will flock to the low.
It was difficult to defeat four hands with two fists, and he was defeated and retreated, and he was injured in many places.
With the passage of time, the Xiongnu retreated step by step of the Xianbei people, and the number of Xianbei people in the city gradually exceeded the total number of Xiongnu troops.
"It's over, it's all over." Go to humility and be covered in blood, look up to the sky and sigh.
"It's not over yet!" Miao Yu said to Qu Bei: "Your Majesty, kill out of the city, escape!" ”
"The Huns have fallen, where can I flee to?" Go to the humble eyes red in response.
"Go to the Central Plains, go to the Pope."
"To the Central Plains?" Go to humility and ignite a glimmer of life. Oh, yes! There is an old saying among the people of the Central Plains, if you stay in the green mountains, you will not have to worry about no firewood, as long as you flee to the Central Plains, with the help of the Central Plains people and the support of the Chinese Empire, the Xiongnu will be able to make a comeback. "Okay, then let's run. Someone, follow me out of the south gate. ”
Just as Qubei was about to gather soldiers and horses to prepare to break through, Tanma suddenly came to report, "Shan Yu, the Xianbei people have retreated from the city." ”
"Withdrawn? Seeing that the city is about to be broken, how can the Xianbei people retreat? "I didn't believe it at first, but when I rushed back to the city, I saw that it was really ...... The Xianbei people did not pull, the high tide generally surged over, and the low tide generally retreated. What's more, they obviously retreated in such a hurry that no one in the capital of the Xianbei corpses who died in the battle above and below the city was restrained.
"Okay, why did you return it?" He asked Miao Yu.
Miao Yu shook his head, stroked his beard and lowered his head in contemplation for a long time, and suddenly realized, "Could it be that the heavenly soldiers of the empire are coming?" ”
"So fast? Impossible, right? It is said "impossible", but everyone wants it to be true.
"Perhaps Our Lady relayed Shan Yu's prayer to His Majesty the Pope, and His Majesty knew about the danger Shan Yu was facing long before Shan Yu's distress letter arrived in Luoyang, and rushed to help him in time."
"Is that true?"
That's the only way to explain it. Otherwise, how could the people of Kebineng suddenly retreat. Miao Yu was happy in his heart. As the head of the S.H.I.E.L.D. spy in the grassland region, the news that Qu Wen colluded with Xianbei and intended to plot against Shan Yuting was sent to Luoyang, so he knew better than anyone the reason why the imperial army arrived early. As long as the heavenly soldiers arrived, it was not only the time when the Huns were saved, but also the moment when they were destroyed, and at the same time, they were buried with the proud and arrogant Xianbei people.
The era of Chinese domination of the grassland is about to begin.
"I don't know where His Majesty's soldiers and horses have been." The rest of his life after the catastrophe rubbed his hands excitedly. "Explore where the horses are, and immediately go out of the city to find the Han army...... Uh, the Holy Cult Army trail. Report any news immediately. ”
"No need." Miao Yu raised his right hand and pointed to the southeast, "Look, it's the Holy Cross Banner." The heavenly soldiers of the empire are coming. ”
