Volume 6 "Warriors" 189: Sideways Insertion
"Liu Ling, the daughter of Liu An, the king of Huainan, and the second of the eight princes under the tent were also in Huze. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" After Lin Bin finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Han Anguo, and when he saw Han Anguo obviously stunned, he immediately showed a happy expression, thinking to himself, "Does he think I'm making a statement?" Lin Bin turned his head again to stare at the approaching Xiongnu army, "Liu An asked Liu Ling, Wu Quilt, and Jin Chang to send 200,000 gold, 3,000 carts of cloth, brocade silk, and utensils. ”
Han Anguo was nervous, "Protecting the Han Hou......?" ”
Lin Bin smiled: "I need war materials, and I have accepted all those things." ”
There were no stones in the grassland, and the busy soldiers on the wall carried bundles of arrows, and some of the wood left over from the construction of the wall was nailed with spikes to be used as sasswood, and the shouts made the atmosphere strong, with a smell of pre-battle.
As war approached, men with bows and crossbows were constantly marching, and they lined up in the rear of the wall according to the instructions of the officers.
"Zhang!"
More than 100 officers shouted in unison, and nearly 20,000 soldiers with bows and crossbows opened their bowstrings.
"Hey!"
The sound of the bowstring was played neatly.
What Han Anguo wanted to say just now was interrupted, he looked at the crossbowmen arranged in the back with wide eyes, and stayed for a while before coming back to his senses. It's not that he hasn't seen tens of thousands of crossbowmen trying their bows together, but training and testing bows in battle are completely different. He saw the soldiers who kept climbing towards the arrow tower, and couldn't help but secretly admire in his heart, the arrangement of the arrow tower can obviously strengthen the defense of the wall, as long as the arrow tower does not destroy the enemy army, even if it climbs the wall, it will have no effect.
Under the wall, an officer raised the crossbow machine into a projectile position, and he pulled the trigger. The crossbow bolts burst out of the air with a 'boom', whistling out.
On the wall, calibrated officers looked for the point of the arrow with sharp eyes. He saw the tail of the crossbow bolt stuck in the dirt and still trembling, and shouted, "Four hundred and thirty steps!" ”
The officer who had just fired the test shot put down the crossbow machine, and he took a three-stone bow from a soldier next to him, and opened the bow, took the arrow, and released the arrow, and a series of actions flowed smoothly.
The arrows of the infantry bow were different from the crossbow arrows, and the officer in charge of calibration quickly found the arrows that were fired, and reported: "Two hundred paces!" ”
After testing the range. The crossbowmen behind the wall began to change their ranks, standing one echelon at a time.
Arrow formations were the strong point of the Han army, but they did not form an effective firing pattern. The band-type arrow rain covering shooting formation arranged by Lin Bin's crossbowmen was something that the Han army did not have, and this reinforced arrow array was used for defensive battles, unless the arrows were gone, otherwise the enemy army without siege equipment would not want to approach.
The formation was formed, and the soldiers began to light torches. Bring up the arrows wrapped in the miscellaneous cloth. Then, what was destined to be a battlefield was restored, and calm was restored.
Lin Bin took a few steps back slightly, and the place he got out of the way was filled by the shield bearer.
Han Anguo has participated in many major battles, defensive battles are also a lot, he and Liang King Liu Wu in the Seven Kings Rebellion jointly defended Liangcheng, fought nearly two months of hard defensive battles, Liangcheng, the city is high, many soldiers, enough food, two months by the rebels hundreds of thousands of troops take turns to attack the city. It was almost captured by the rebels.
According to Han Anguo's impression, the Huns were much more ferocious than the Chinese. The eight-zhang high city wall of Liangcheng was almost unfortified, and at present, this kind of low wall, which is only three zhang and two feet high, can cope with the attack of 150,000 Huns?
Han Anguo didn't bother to ask Lin Bin what he would do with Liu An, the king of Huainan, "Dare to ask the Protector of Hanhou, how many arrows has our army prepared?" ”
As Lin Bin saw, the Hun army stopped halfway through the advance, and could vaguely hear a desolate horn, and the Hun cavalry began to dismount and prepare to camp. He looked up at the sky, the sky was full of clouds, the clouds covered the sun, and the autumn breeze made people feel refreshed, and murmured: "What a murderous weather!" ”
Han Anguo carefully observed the soldiers standing on the wall, only to see that the soldiers did not show a nervous expression, and every soldier seemed to be used to fighting and looked very calm. He heard Lin Bin's self-talk and smiled bitterly, in his mind, Lin Bin and the soldiers under his command may really be born to kill, in just two years, Lin Bin led the army in the northern Xinjiang and outside the Saiwai battle, every day bloody, just to rush to the Han border deep into the Xiongnu (in fact, Xianbei) to fight in the battle, I am afraid that there will be no less than hundreds of thousands of people. Of course, this is exactly what the Han State is worried about, if this overly angry army really turns around and goes south, the consequences will be unimaginable!
Zhang Qian called softly: "Protector Hanhou? ”
Lin Bin still likes this persistent 'diplomat' more, and turned his head when he heard the call.
Zhang Qian looked a little nervous, "I don't know how long the Protector Hanhou wants to stay here, but you have enough arrows, grain and grass and other things?" ”
Lin Bin smiled, "As many arrows as there are, I will guard them for as long as I want." The current arrows are ......, if the Huns continue to attack, they will be consumed in about half a month, and the five armies must retreat at that time. ”
Han Anguo breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he originally thought that Lin Bin, who lacked logistics supplies, could hold on for ten days, but he didn't expect that it would be five more days than expected. For the purpose of his mission, he stroked his beard tentatively: "There are tens of millions of arrows to carry this time, I don't know how many more days can I keep?" ”
Lu Yan finally couldn't help it, he snorted coldly and said, "Han Guo's good plan!" ”
Zhang Qian and Han Anguo were stunned at the same time.
Zhang Qian knew that Lu Yan was hostile to the Han State, and he had always been very depressed why Lin Bin wanted to reuse a general who was hostile to the Han State, so he cautiously wanted to have a good relationship with Lin Bin, the purpose was to test and also want Lin Bin to 'rein in the precipice', it was best to bring Lin Bin back to the Han State, and if he couldn't, don't let Lin Bin and the Han State tear his face.
Han Anguo has been guarding the frontier for a long time, although he knows that Lin Bin has contradictions with many gate valve families, and he is not very good with the Han State, but Lin Bin's repeated concessions have given him an impression, that is, Lin Bin is loyal to the Han State, loyal to the current son, and the attack on Heshuo is also ordered by the edict of the Son of Heaven, the wrong cognition makes him feel more and more confused, hearing Lu Yan's words, he is not only confused, but completely confused!
There are speculations on this side, and the Huns are no better.
After Ji Shan and Yi Zhixian retreated last night, the remaining troops of the Right Xian Wang Department were less than 10,000, and the Right Valley Liwang Court was better and had nearly 40,000 troops, and a day and night of fighting made the two departments lose nearly 100,000 (including the surrendered Western Regions people, and the Huns who were lost at night). Although they knew that Lin Bin had also retreated, they would definitely be able to take advantage of it if they caught up, but in order to replenish their troops, they had to wait for the ambush troops in the rear to come up.
The two of them waited not only for the ambush they had arranged behind, but also for several tribal cavalry from Helan Mountain to follow at the same time.
At this time, Ji Shan rode on horseback and looked at the leaders of the Huhun and Tushen tribes a little sullenly, although he was the right Xian King, and his status in the Xiongnu was second only to the Xiongnu Da Shan Yu, but if there was no strength, what status and authority would be bullshit.
"I should transfer troops from Gaoque!"
Ji Shan had an imminent worry, he felt that the two neighboring tribes had brought 60,000 cavalry at once to grab the territory. Under this kind of worry, Ji Shan had to win over Yi Zhixie, and promised to support Yi Zhixian in the future, and after Yi Zhixian generously transferred the 50,000 wolf army that was ambushed behind, this time the number of the two armies finally exceeded the cavalry of other tribes from Helan Mountain, and they also had confidence in speaking.
Yi Zhixie's idea is much more complicated, he wants to climb to the position of Da Shan Yu is destined to need a few allies, those Xiao Wang secretly allegiance not to mention, he has been supported by King Zuo Xian before, and now he has the support of King Right Xian, and he is already completely sure to kill the current Da Shan Yu. What he wants is to change the current status quo of the Xiongnu, if he ascends to the throne of Da Danyu, he must come up with a way to eradicate the habit of the tribe secretly hiding soldiers, and solve the dilemma of insufficient troops for the Xiongnu every time.
The leaders of the Xiongnu, who had lofty ideals and only cared about their immediate interests, rode their horses forward, and saw a low wall towering in front of them, on which the banners of the Han army fluttered, and under the banners stood countless crossbowmen.
"Lin Bin dug a lot of traps at night!"
It can be said that what King Tu Shen said was nonsense.
"Don't attack for the time being!"
Yi Zhixian's words made the tribal king who came from Helan Mountain a little displeased.
King Hun said in a strong voice: "It's all here, why don't you fight!" Do you have to wait for the Han people to do a good job of defense before going up!? ”
Ji Shan narrowed his eyes and said in a dark voice: "I heard that the wolves of Helan Mountain have lost their claws and teeth......
“……”
After the outbreak of silence, the most unbearable thing for several tribal kings in Helan Mountain is to be ridiculed, in the past, Ji Shan used to laugh at the Huns in Helan Mountain at the traditional meeting for decades without fighting and had almost lost their claws and teeth, and now they were taken out and said, they knew that this was called a radical general, but they just couldn't bear to use that kind of gloomy and compassion to cash!
"We'll see! See who climbed the walls of the Han people first! ”
"Oh......? The people of Helan Mountain really haven't fought for too long, the low wall over there, is it called the city wall? Hahaha......"
Yi Zhi was speechless for a while, his original intention was very simple, he had accepted the advice of the Bank of China, and wanted to find an opportunity to talk formally with Lin Bin out of the overall situation, which Youxian Wang Jishan also agreed, and now the tribal king of Helan Mountain has stepped in, it seems that there are still twists and turns in the matter!
