Chapter 50 Murong Feng angrily sent troops, and Tuoba troops arrived at the Great Wall

It is said that the three Xianbei cavalrymen galloped wildly, for fear that one of them would be killed by those Han troops who were in ambush. The tragedy of their companions just now subverted the impression of the Han people in their hearts.

"It's hanging! Why are these Han troops so powerful? They were relieved only a little after dodging a rain of spears behind them, and one of them asked.

Another person said: "I heard that the last time the centurion tied the flower was lost in the hands of the Han army. Could it be these soldiers? ”

"Don't think that the Han soldiers are weak?! According to the ancestors, Wei Qing, Huo Qubing and others in the early Han Dynasty once expelled the Huns to Mobei. It can be seen that the strength of the Han soldiers is no worse than ours! The third person said.

"Either way, we must go back to the tribe first and tell the leader."

"Okay." "Okay."

Xianbei Murong tribe.

It was a huge tribe that could be said to be one of the most powerful of the Xianbei tribes on the steppe. They have a population of over 10,000 people. Young adults make up more than one-third of the tribe, more than three thousand. There are only a few hundred elderly people.

Because of this, this tribe has also become the youngest of the Xianbei tribes.

The leader of the tribe is called Kuitou, and he is the eldest son of the Murong family, a prominent clan in the tribe, called Murong Feng.

He is 27 years old and has been in charge for more than two years.

In the course of two years, he led his tribe to continuously conquer and expand grazing lands, and as the population grew, the Murong tribe became one of the largest tribes on the grassland.

Hearing that the Han army had attacked and killed five clansmen, Murong Feng was furious.

The last time Zha Hua encountered the Han army in the Great Wall and was tragically killed, it had already made him very sad and angry.

When he heard that his clan died at the hands of the Han people again, how could he be calm?

Gathering the leaders of the tribe, he told the people about it in detail, and said: "This pasture of the tribe is the closest to the Han people. Attacked by the Han people twice in a row, if we don't fight back, we will inevitably be ridiculed by other tribes! And we can't explain it to our people! ”

His elder brother Murong Bo was a militant himself, and he echoed and said, "Yes, we must send troops to teach those Han people a lesson!" ”

Another big family in the tribe, Tuoba Clan's general, Tuoba Unbearable, said: "Does the Great Khan know if these Han people are soldiers and horses of the Han court? If it is a Hanting soldier, we must not take it lightly! ”

But Tuoba Bu, another general of the Tuoba clan, said: "What about the soldiers and horses of the Han court? Which of my Xianbei cavalry is not a born warrior?! Why should the Han soldiers be worried? ”

……

In fact, most of the men in the Xianbei nomadic tribe were militants.

In this meeting, only Tuoba was hesitant, and everyone else supported sending troops.

In the end, Murong Feng decided to send a cavalry of 1,000 people to attack the county seat of Wuzhong and teach the Han people a lesson.

Tuoba Bu and Murong Bo quarreled over the quota of leading troops.

Murong Feng stopped the two of them, and directly ordered Tuoba Bu to straighten out the troops and horses, and the next day there was no end to the troops.

Besides, in the endless city, Liu Bei sent cavalry to patrol near the Great Wall from time to time.

Tuobabu's army galloped all the way, and the movement was very quiet, which attracted the attention of Liu Bei's outpost early.

The sentry hurriedly returned to the city of no end and reported to Liu Bei and Chen Mi.

Liu Bei suggested to Chen Mi that the city gate be closed as soon as possible, and sent the official to the Guangyang County Shoufu to deliver the letter.

Because of the harassment of the Xianbei cavalry and Karasuma cavalry for many years, most of the people outside the city fled to the Central Plains, and even a few who did not go to the Central Plains also moved into the outer city of the city.

Chen Mi ordered the city gate to be closed, and asked the officials to inform the people to help defend the city.

Liu Bei led the soldiers to the city wall to watch the enemy's situation.

Boy!

A piece of black pressing.

So much!

There are really more than 1,000 cavalry, and the smoke is rising!

What a strong momentum!

"Quick! Inform the county lord and let the people boil hot water! Liu Bei ordered the heralds.

"Yes!" The herald hurried down to report.

What is this hot water for?

The enemy came too fast, and they simply didn't have time to prepare tung oil.

Liu Bei is familiar with military books, and he has won Liu Du's personal biography, knowing that he has only 200 soldiers and horses under his command, and the most effective way now is to command the people to resist the enemy together, and the easiest thing to do is to boil hot water.

Hot water deals little damage to enemies, but it can withstand enemies for at least a while.

Tuoba Bu raised his horse and whipped straight to the bottom of the county seat of Wuzhong.

When he came to the city, he held a knife in one hand, pointed at the city, and shouted: "Listen, the people of the city, immediately hand over the murderer the day before, or I will slaughter the city!" ”

Liu Bei stood on the city wall and replied, "Who is here?" What did you say? The people of my city are all good people, how can they harbor murderers? ”

"I am Tuobabu, the commander of the Thousand Commanders under the command of Murong Feng, the Great Khan of Xianbei, and the day before yesterday, the soldiers in your city attacked five cavalry of our clan outside the Great Wall. Do you dare to do it, but you dare not admit it? ”

"General Tuoba, there is a way that the two armies have no eyes in front of the battle, and life and death are dead. Don't you even understand this? Liu Bei asked rhetorically.

The soldiers of the Han army on the side and the people in the city all burst into laughter after hearing this.

Hearing this, Tuoba was furious and immediately commanded the cavalry to attack the city.

The Xianbei cavalry rushed forward in a swarm, and the momentum really frightened everyone in the city.

Only Liu Bei saw them rushing into the range of the archers, and shouted: "Step archers, prepare to shoot!" ”

"Shoot!"

"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! ...... "The cavalry that charges with arrows falling on the city, but unfortunately there are too few archers and too weak to kill."

The cavalry was very fast, and in the blink of an eye, they rushed to the bottom of the city.

Liu Bei saw that the cavalry actually pierced the city wall with short knives and climbed upward, and hurriedly ordered the people to pour boiling water from above, and let the soldiers push the rolling wood and stones down.

"Ahh "Ahh "Ahh "Ahh ……

The continuous screams reflect the victory of this round of battles......

Most of the soldiers who were scalded by boiling water had blisters on their hands and faces, and were hit by rolling wooden stones, and many of them were injured or even killed.

Those who were lucky enough to escape hurriedly climbed onto their horses and ran back.

Looking at the Xianbei soldiers who fled back, the soldiers and people in the city shouted excitedly.

Liu Bei saw that the lethality of boiling water to the enemy was really too small, and sighed that he had too few archers.

When he turned around and saw that Chen Mi was still busy directing everyone to light the fire, he ordered the herald to find Chen Mi.

"Liu Junhou, do you have something?" Chen Mi came over and asked.

"Lord Xiancheng, don't boil the water! How is the tung oil prepared? ”

"It's still not much, the people have taken out all the tung oil at home, and it's not enough for a few cauldrons!" Chen Mi said very embarrassed.

"It should be enough! Prepare the tung oil and start burning it when the enemy attacks again! Liu Bei believed that if he persisted for one day, the rescue should come.

"Okay!"

Seeing the failure of this round, Tuoba realized that the cavalry siege was definitely a mistake.

Don't look rough-looking, he is definitely not a reckless man. If you are fooled by his appearance, then you are definitely not far from death.

"Miro, Koligi, take four hundred warriors to guard that gate, and if anyone in the city goes out of the city, you will be killed. I'm going to trap this city first. Tuoba Bu thought to himself, a small city has been trapped for a few days, and the people in the city have not obediently come out to surrender.

"They're going to besiege the city!" Liu Bei looked at Tuobabu's cavalry layout and said to Chen Mi.

"Aren't they going to take the city?" Chen Mi asked puzzled.

Liu Bei looked at the Xianbei cavalry encamped in the distance, and did not answer his question, but said with a smile: "This is a very smart opponent. The cavalry siege failed, and he immediately understood his disadvantage. So, he immediately adjusted his tactics. He thought the siege would threaten us! ”

"This ......" Chen Mi looked at Liu Bei puzzled......

Liu Bei continued: "It's a pity that he doesn't know that we have sent someone for help. As soon as reinforcements arrived, his siege would inevitably cease to exist. ”

Chen Mi saw that he hadn't answered his question, and asked, "Are you talking about whether they will attack the city tonight?" ”

Liu Bei turned around and said to him with a smile: "It's not easy to say. If there is no one to defend the city at night, he will definitely arrange for someone to attack. ”

"Huh?!" Chen Mike knew about the armed forces in the city, and he was immediately anxious, "What can I do about this?" ”

Seeing Chen Mi's anxious appearance, Liu Bei hurriedly comforted: "Don't worry, adult. We held out all night, and if possible, reinforcements would arrive tomorrow evening. I'm going to trouble you for a while, talk to the people, and don't go home at night. Let them be divided into two groups, one to sleep and the other to be on duty, and change them every hour. ”

After speaking, he called Zhang Ji and Zheng Xing, instructed them to arrange the night guards, and then took Xijie to the city.

At night, will Tuoba Cloth attack the city?

Is Liu Bei's arrangement useful?

What did he do with Xijie?
