After daybreak, the Xianbei people raised a white flag and demanded a temporary truce so that they could send people to collect the corpses of their tribesmen under the dock fort. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Xue Lan agreed to the Xianbei people's request and did not let the crossbowmen on the wall shoot while the Xianbei people came to clean up the corpses.

The weather is hot now, and if the corpses of Xianbei people and war horses are not taken away in time, there is a possibility of causing a plague. Even if there was no plague, the disgusting smell of corpses would definitely be a weapon of destruction.

Bu Dugen was dressed in the clothes of ordinary Xianbei people, mixed in with the Xianbei people who collected the corpses, and carefully and meticulously observed the structure of Lü's Dock Fort.

After observation, Budugen found that the dock fort in front of him had obviously been strengthened in the later stage, and the fort wall was obviously one zhang higher than that seen in other places, and what was even worse was that the trench outside the wall was two zhang wide and more than one zhang deep, and there were pointed wooden stakes that were enough to pierce people and horses upside down in the ditch!

It's clearly a small fortress!

Budugen deeply regretted his hasty order last night. Although it was not his own clan who died, the Xianbei people who came to Jiuyuan with him to seek revenge would sooner or later be included in the tribe of the leader. Kuitou and Budugen are brothers, and the clansmen of Kuitou are also the clansmen of Budugen.

In order to mediate the infighting between the Hochiro tribe, the Koons tribe and the other two tribes, Budugen proposed to the leader to temporarily separate the two sides under the banner of revenge, and if the two tribes whose strength was not damaged were willing to help the Hochiro and Koons tribes avenge, then they would acquiesce to their annexation of the horchiro and Koons tribes respectively.

As a result, the two tribes that had not lost their strength were afraid of attracting retaliation from the Tiance Army afterwards, and they all refused to avenge Huo Chiluo and Koons.

The leader then justifiably handed over the tribes of Huo Chi Luo and Koons to the management of Bu Dugen, and let Bu Du Gen take them to Jiuyuan to find Lu Bu's family and avenge Huo Chiro and Koons.

As long as Budugen completes this mission, the clansmen left behind by Huo Chiro and Koons will naturally obey the management of the Kuitou, and when the Kui Leader completely annexes the two tribes, it will be much easier to go back and deal with the other two tribes that are already weaker.

The strategy that Budugen gave his brother is ingenious. The question now is whether Budugen can break the castle of Lü Shiwu and avenge Hochiro and Koons.

Bu Dugen safely withdrew to the camp in the team carrying the corpses, and he called Huo Chiluo and several of Koons's cronies together, and said to them: "Just now I risked my danger to get close to observe, and found that the Lu family had already taken precautions, built the fort wall strong and tall, and dug the trench wide and deep, so we can't force ourselves and take the lives of the people to fill the trench!" ”

"Are we going to go back like this?!"

"You proposed to come to Jiuyuan for revenge, you have to find a way!"

"Even if we pay for the lives of some people, we will avenge the patriarch!"

These cronies left behind by Hochiro and Koons have expressed their attitudes, and no one is willing to stop there.

"I know your pain! Attacking forts is not our Xianbei people's forte, so we have to go to Jiuyuan and Yiliang to catch more Han people, and force them to make a wooden bridge for us that can be erected above the trench, a long ladder that can climb to the top of the fort wall, and a wooden sign that can block arrows! When the time comes, after we have these tools, we can also force these Han people to fill in the trench, and if they are shot to death, it will consume the arrows of the Han people guarding the fort, and we can also push them into the trench to fill the pit! ”

Bu Dugen's insidious and vicious suggestion was immediately agreed by everyone, and this method of only killing Han people was indeed more cost-effective than storming the dock fort.

Immediately, more than 6,000 Xianbei people scattered from Lü's Dock Fort and began to loot and arrest the Han people near Jiuyuan County and Yiliang County.

Fortunately, Xue Lan sent two henchmen and veterans to Jiuyuan County and Yiliang overnight to warn, and by the time the Xianbei people scattered to arrest people, most of the Han people had either fled or hid in the nearby dock fort.

However, there are still some Han people who are reluctant to move because they are reluctant to work in their families, and they are all arrested by the Xianbei people.

Bu Dugen thought that the number of Han people caught was too small, so he simply forced these Han people to assist the Xianbei people in attacking several Han Wu forts between Yiliang and Jiuyuan, which were not as well defended as Lü's Wu Fort. These Han forts could not be supported, and they were breached one after another in less than a day, so Bu Dugen ordered all the thousands of Han people hiding in the forts to be escorted to the vicinity of Lü's forts, and also let his men loot the property, livestock and grain in these forts.

Although the scale of several small dock forts is not as large as that of Lü's Dock Fort, the wealth and food that came out of them also made these Xianbei robbers completely red-eyed, and they believed that Lü's Dock Fort, which made a fortune by weaving and dyeing cloth, must have a huge amount of wealth hidden in it. Therefore, their desire to break through the Lü Clan Forts was even more fiery and urgent.

Bu Dugen forced thousands of Han people to the bottom of Lü's Wu Fort, and sent people to shout to the fort, asking the Lü family to open the fort gate and surrender, so as to spare the lives of the old and young in the fort. Otherwise, you will have to let these thousands of Han people outside fill in the trenches with soil and storm the dock fort!

Xue Lan and Lu Liang stood behind the battlements above the gate of the dock fort, looking at the thousands of frightened and defenseless Han people outside the fort, their eyes seemed to be spewing fire out, and Xue Lan almost crushed his fist bones.

"These brutes! How could they ...... like this," Lu Liang muttered to himself, "That's it, the Lu family can't ignore the lives and deaths of thousands of fellow villagers outside the fort for the sake of living alone!" General Xue, you quickly leave with some of your soldiers, and I will delay time for you. ”

"Old lady, don't be confused at this time!" Xue Lan stopped Lu Liang loudly, "Even if you order the gate of the fort to be opened, do you think these thousands of Han people outside the fort will survive?" Xianbei Dog may not kill them immediately now, but he will definitely capture them all to the north of Yinshan to be slaves! Let the Han people use the Xianbei dogs as slaves, it is better to kill them now! ”

I don't know when, Lu Bu's mother Huang also went up to the gatehouse, and she said to Lu Liang: "General Xue is right, there must be no woman's kindness at this time!" It's a big deal that our Lu family will die with the villagers outside the fort, but we must not surrender to the Xianbei dog thief! Even if the fort is broken today, my son will avenge us in the future! ”

Lu Liang was persuaded by Xue Lan and his wife, and strengthened his determination to defend to the end, and he said to Xue Lan: "In this case, I also ask General Xue to immediately escort Yan and Tuan'er to escape from the tunnel, and the matter of commanding the battle will be done by the old man!" ”
