Chapter 18: The War Drums of the Han Army

Hearing the sound of the morning drum in the morning (similar to the wake-up call), Lin Bin opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was the gray sky, pulling the blanket to get up, but he found that the blanket became very wet due to the dew, and he thought, no matter how he goes down, he must have arthritis.

"Get up! All up! "Drinking, shouting angrily, sending the sulking anger out on the soldiers, I saw Dou Shiyan turn over and continue to sleep, kicked over, kicked Dou Shiyan a rolling gourd, very good, the depressed mood finally vented a little.

A little famous, Lin Bin found that Gongsun Hong was gone, which made his face a little blue, Han Zhu strictly explained last night that he had to manage the soldiers well, and he must not let the soldiers act alone, otherwise he would have to eat military sticks. Now, Lin Bin got up but found that someone had slipped away, he didn't have time to think about it so much, for fear of delaying the time for assembling for morning drills, and led the soldiers out of the cantonment house.

At a glance outside, a large group of people gathered next to the city wall, including Lin Bin, all the soldiers lined up with a wooden basin to wait for the water, not much water, only enough for everyone to rinse their mouths and scrub their bodies, if there are conditions in northern Xinjiang, you need to wipe your body simply every day, otherwise the yellow sand and sultry weather will make people sick, and it is not a good thing to be sick at this time.

The Han army also has a strict rule, each team of soldiers must gather together for food, every pot of bean porridge, twenty pasta, in fact, the pasta is a round cake that looks yellow, yellow, black and black, this thing does not feel anything when eating, but mixed with bean porridge to eat, ordinary people are full of one or two pieces.

After eating, the elders began to roll call again, but during Lin Bin's roll call, he found that Gongsun Hong appeared again, and he looked at Gongsun Hong with a warning for a long time, and then walked to the next one......

Then

Very suddenly, the sound of the bronze bell being struck on the city wall sounded, and immediately, the war drums also sounded in the fort, which sounded exciting!

"What's going on?" Only Lin Bin was still standing in place in a daze, and the other commanders were shouting loudly, until the soldiers raised their weapons and began to run in the direction of the city wall amid the shouts of the officers, Lin Bin reacted: "Enemy attack!! ā€

It was too sudden, it came too suddenly, it caught people a little off guard, and without any warning, the Huns actually killed!

Dozens of heralds holding a small red flag were in the cantonment houses and city walls, shouting and running.

"The military lord has an order: prepare for war! Prepare for battle! Discover the Huns' large cavalry! ā€

The beating of the war drums became more urgent, and the Han soldiers shouted trumpets and walked up to the city wall in batches, their expressions were a little dazed, as if they couldn't figure out why the Huns had come so quickly.

Lin Bin was not informed of any task today, he led the soldiers back to the cantonment house, and waited with some apprehension, if it was really the Huns attacking, then today was the first time he participated in a large-scale cold weapon war as a Han army!

Lin Bin clenched the sword that was small in proportion to his body, and found that the expression of the soldier in Shinei was very nervous, like a grassroots child, this thin little soldier who didn't look like an adult at all, at this moment he was trembling all over, his face was also a little pale, and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat.

Lin Bin didn't know if there was a political commissar in the Han army, he was very excited, and his hand holding the sword trembled a little, but he always had to say something to encourage the morale of his soldiers: "The Huns want to invade our homeland savagely!" For the sake of your loved ones, in order to survive, we should defend with the spear in our hands! ā€

The soldiers smiled reluctantly and continued to look at Lin Bin, as if hoping that he would say something more. Lin Bin just wants this result, you must know that in many battles, many rookies who have just entered the battlefield are not mentally calm enough, and the result is that they can only make seven or eight points with great strength, so in cold weapon combat, the more afraid people die faster.

Lin Bin was still talking, what to say, and just when he wanted to use the hypnotic Dafa of the political commissar of the republic, a roar suddenly came from the city wall and interrupted him. They turned their heads to look in the direction of the city wall, and saw a black banner rising from the flagpole, and the black color was the soldier waiting for the lord to inform all the soldiers of the fort: Warriors, for the sake of the Great Han Kingdom, I will die before you!

Outside the city, the black pressure of the Hun cavalry played the flag, it was a totem of goat horns, a middle-aged man wearing a copper goat horn hood stood in front of about 2,000 Hun cavalry and foot soldiers, with the whip on his right hand pointed at the fort, laughing from time to time, the middle-aged man wearing a goat horn hood is the Xiongnu Aries Department of the small king - the king of the white sheep.

The moment the black flag was raised, the entire fort could hear the sound of inhalation, and immediately, the Huns outside the city "yo hoo", "the Han people are scared", "rob the light, burn it all" and the Han army's "The army is mighty!" "The Han army is mighty!" "Defend the Frontier!" The trumpets of the Huns began to roar, and finally converged into two voices: "Kill all!" of the Huns! - Han people's "battle to the death!" ā€

Lin Bin understood, this was a means for the military lord to motivate the soldiers, probably to express: I will not be greedy for life and afraid of death, let alone flee alone, I will fight at the forefront! What about you, soldiers of the Great Han Kingdom!?

He thought that this military marquis was a smart man, and he knew how to use what means to stabilize his people's emotions in the event of a sudden attack.

The ground began to shake, Lin Bin looked at Dou Shiyan and found that this big old man still had an indifferent expression; looked at Lugo Zuomu again, and found that this guy was still a dead man's face; Waiting to look at Gongsun Hong, Lin Bin saw him laughing, very weirdly laughing, the muscles in his cheeks seemed to be cramping, laughing was more ugly than crying.

In fact, Lin Bin also knew that his face would not be good to see, no one wanted to see the black flag of the Han army on the first expedition, it was a very obscure flag, listening to the old Han soldiers, every time the black flag was raised in the fort, up to the army, down to the people, there was almost no possibility of survival.

The worst thing this time is that when today's edict just arrived at Biansai, the Han troops from other forts would definitely not come to support, and if there was no accident, Lin Bin's first battle would be his last......

Lin Bin felt that he was very helpless and unlucky, but the Huns did not give him time to feel sorry for himself, and the bronze bell on the city wall was ringing again.

……

On the wall of the fort, the Han soldiers stood every three meters, these soldiers held spears and looked ahead, and one meter behind them stood a comrade with a huge wooden shield, these comrades will block the arrows fired by the Huns for the spearmen, these are the permanent soldiers of the fort, and they are also the more elite soldiers of the fort.

At the back seat of the city wall, it is a combat unit, five of the ten soldiers are divided into a small group with three-shot crossbows, and they are responsible for releasing arrows to block the Huns; The other five men were armed with Changge, and in front of them stood a chief with a sword, and the only responsibility of this group with melee weapons was to supplement the position of the soldiers who were guarding the battlements in front, and once the soldiers in front of them fell, the chief would pounce on them to prevent the Huns from climbing up again, and the soldiers firmly protected their own commanders with a foot formation of five people - this was the smallest infantry battle formation of the Han army.

Look inside and outside the city wall: under the grassland of the sky, the black Hun cavalry stopped on a slope, the black line could not see the end, the Huns did not immediately attack the city, it seemed to be waiting for something. Under the inner wall of the fort, there are Han soldiers and Minyu standing there, soldiers waiting for military orders to go up to fight at any time, and Minyu must replenish ordnance and carry the wounded down for treatment at any time.

Lin Bin asked his guards to stay in the house and not move, and walked outside the house to look at the gate of the village, where there were people moving everything that could block the door back and forth and stuffing it into the doorway.

He admired the courage of the military candidates, knowing that in any era, a high-ranking officer who is willing to live and die with the soldiers is a hero worthy of respect.

"Fuck it!" This was the first time that Lin Bin had become dirty since he came to the Han Dynasty, and his roar with his tall body and face full of fighting spirit was very shocking, but because he was too involved, he didn't find anyone behind him.

The person who came was a scribe of about thirty, and he had been standing behind Lin Bin for a while, and it was not until Lin Bin turned to look at him that he stroked his beard, "Hehe, yes, it's fucking!" He asked, "Are you Lin Bin and Lin Shi Chang of 'Yi Bingshi'?" ā€

At this time, a loud shout came from the city wall: "Shoot! ā€

The Han sergeant with a melee weapon began to shout: "Wind, wind~ gale!" Gale! ā€

The sky was obscured into darkness by arrows, and the arrows in the sky quickly disappeared into the sky in a projectile shape, and immediately, the sound of people outside the city turning their horses on their ears was endless. The Huns did not give the Han army time to prepare, and unexpectedly launched the first wave of tentative attacks!

Lin Bin was a little stunned, nodded mechanically, and turned around to go back to prepare for the battle. Unexpectedly, the scribe stopped him and said that the Huns would not come in so quickly, so that Lin Bin did not need to be nervous, and took the soldiers to recharge their strength and prepare to kill the enemy.

Lin Bin's ears kept hearing the sound of shouting and killing from the other side of the city wall, and occasionally there were terrible screams, and the sound of a large number of arrows being thrown into the sky was very frequent. He didn't think much about it, smiled gratefully at the scribe, ran back to the garrison house, drew out the iron sword and began to sharpen it, he knew that it was really not possible not to be ruthless this time, although his personal strength was very small, but in order to add a little hope of survival, he had to fight!

The enemy attack came too suddenly, and there was no chance for people to adapt, Lin Bin didn't think much about it at all, if he really wanted to die in battle, then fight to the death!
