Chapter 109: Siege Wei to save Zhao

Li Qin was stunned, how could this Hun soldier speak Chinese and speak so well? The Huns who can speak Chinese should not have a low status, and looking at his armor style, he should be a big man!

Waving at the horn guards in the earthen wall, Li Qin said: "This person is useful, don't let him die immediately!" As he spoke, he ran up to the wounded Horn Keeper and examined his injuries.

Liu Heipan's head was lowered again, buried in the soil, he has not died until now, but now he hopes that he will die quickly, he can no longer bear the pain, but he just didn't die, he didn't understand why, God didn't let him die, this was by no means a favor for him, but a torture for him, a punishment for him!

The Fujiao soldier jumped out of the earth wall, lifted Liu Heibao up, and saw that his intestines were dragged out of his body, the Fujiao soldier was extremely surprised, he was so seriously injured, this Hun soldier was still alive, it was a miracle!

More and more horn-raising soldiers got up, some went to help their comrades, while others jumped out of the earth wall, as if ruthlessly, to slaughter the uninjured Hun soldiers, and vent all the tyrannical anger after the bloody battle just now on the enemy!

The passage continued to be chaotic, and after a long time, a full hour, Zhang Yi carried a bloody broadsword and ran to this side, he shouted: "Li Lang, we won, we won, we defeated the six thousand Huns before and after, how many years, there has been no such victory!" ”

He ran to Li Qin's side, but saw Li Qin sitting against the earthen wall, his face full of frustration, and he whispered: "What's the matter, what is Li Lang thinking?" We won, we won, we only ran a few hundred Huns, and they will definitely not dare to come back! ”

Li Qin shook his head, pointed to the side of the position, and sighed: "I have a dead brother, and the number of casualties is afraid that it will not exceed 100, and my army is not far from being disabled!" ”

Zhang Yi immediately put away his smile, he looked at the horn soldiers, and saw countless corpses behind the earthen wall, one layer after another, and there were hundreds of horn soldiers lying horizontally and vertically on the side of the wall, some people died, there were comrades around them crying, and some people did not die, but they were screaming loudly, the scene was bleak, not as if they had just finished a big victory, but like a big defeat!

Zhang Yi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, thought for a long time, but couldn't think of any comforting words, so he had to say: "Li Lang, you think that the strength of only 500 auxiliary soldiers is counted, and you have defeated 6,000 Hun soldiers in several bloody battles before and after. When you go into battle and fight, how can there be no immortals? More than 100 casualties are already a great blessing, don't be sad, don't be sad! ”

Li Qin shook his head, raised his hand to wipe his face, ignored Zhang Yi, strode towards the wounded soldier, and together with the military doctor Jing Chun, checked the injuries of the Fujiao soldiers and bandaged the wounds!

As soon as Li Qin passed, the Fujiao soldiers surrounded him, crying loudly to him, no one thought that victory was very important, but thought that it was very important that they had died so many people, and the whole earthen wall was full of crying, and outside the earthen wall, it was all the screams of the Hun soldiers when they were slaughtered!

Zhang Yi thought to himself: "Why bother, the soldier is dead, you can replenish it, after this big victory, you can replenish it several times if you want, there is no need to be so sad." As a general, it's not a good thing to be too close to a soldier, you have to be as hard as iron! ”

But after thinking about it, he felt that his idea didn't make sense, he was too bureaucratic, in fact, the relationship between generals and soldiers was good, so it was right, but he couldn't do this himself, he had been a bureaucrat for too long, and he couldn't treat his comrades like brothers and sisters!

Zhang Yi looked at Li Qin, and saw Li Qin squatting on the ground, treating the wounds of a horn soldier, Li Qin shouted: "Are you gentlemen?" ”

The wounded soldier was full of tears, but when he heard Li Qin scream like this, he immediately stopped crying and shouted: "It's the masters, our soldiers from Fujiao Fort are all masters!" ”

Li Qin took a bag of wine and poured it on the wound of the wounded soldier, the wounded soldier was so painful that his eyes were about to pop out, but he opened his throat and shouted: "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt, if you shout that it hurts, you will be girls in the future!" ”

The surrounding Fujiao soldiers shouted together: "Good job, I didn't lose the face of our Fujiao Fort!" ”

Zhang Yi looked at it in surprise and thought: "How can this army be so united, I think I can also train soldiers, but when it comes to the same hatred and hatred, my soldiers are too far behind Li Qin's soldiers!" Alas, I just thought that people were not hard-hearted enough, but now that I think about it, I can't do what others do, I'm jealous! ”

Sighing, Zhang Yi went to see his soldiers cleaning up the battlefield, but inadvertently, he was contaminated by Li Qin's behavior, and he became affectionate to the soldiers, especially the injured soldiers, and went to take care of them personally. The soldiers of Lian County were all surprised, how did the military Sima change his surname, and suddenly took care of the soldiers, he used to beat and scold everyone, and never even had a good word, just like the officers in other places, exactly the same, what's wrong today? Did you win the battle, so you were so happy that you behaved abnormally, right?

The chaotic battlefield was not cleaned up until after dark, and the soldiers were too tired to spend the night outside the city, while the county commander Qiu Sheng personally led the people out of the city to bring good wine and meat to reward the soldiers.

At dawn the next day, after cleaning the battlefield, Qiu Sheng led people to salvage the Hun soldiers in the pond, and the corpses on the battlefield were also gathered to count the results.

Li Qin didn't sleep well last night, he sat on the second earthen wall with red eyes, looking at his army, thinking about how to fight the next battle, and estimated that the headquarters of the Hun soldiers should arrive, and it was only two days.

Qiu Sheng came to the earthen wall, raised his head and said: "Li Lang, the number of dead Hun soldiers has been calculated, plus the number of Hun soldiers who fought the first way before, the total number of dead Hun soldiers is 3,200, and there are more than 400 people who have been caught. I thought there should be more, but somehow there are only so few, and according to the number of people who escaped, there should be no more! ”

Li Qin pointed to the surroundings and said: "It was so chaotic at that time, and the terrain here is complicated, maybe some Hun soldiers took advantage of the chaos to escape, and when they left, they took away the corpses of their close clansmen, which is purely normal, and if we were replaced, it would be the same!" ”

Qiu Sheng nodded and said, "But the battle merits are calculated according to the head, and it is a pity that there are so many heads!" ”

Of course, he understood that in the chaotic situation of yesterday, no matter how defeated the Huns were, there were not a few who fled, but the military merits of the imperial court were calculated according to the number of heads, and the lack of heads was equivalent to the lack of military achievements, and he naturally felt pity in his heart.

Li Qin waved his hand, for him, how many Hun soldiers he got was an irrelevant matter, and whether he could win the subsequent battle was what he had to pay attention to. As long as he wins, he can blow the results of the battle, there are people in the court who are easy to do, he is now someone in the palace, as long as he reports the war achievements, he doesn't have to blow it himself, Zhang Jiu has to play for him to blow, but if he loses, he can't even save his life, and what results are not results, it's all nonsense!

Li Qin said: "I thought about it all night last night, I still underestimated the combat power of the Huns, I always thought that the preparation was enough, but through yesterday's battle, I found that the difference was too far, the two armies were fighting, it was not as simple as I thought, not to fight bravely to solve everything!" ”

Qiu Sheng glanced at the fortifications and said: "This preparation is not sufficient, if you want to be brave, to tell the truth, the lower officials have never seen a braver soldier than Li Lang, the Hun soldiers are far worse than your soldiers!" ”

"But they can eat us all by virtue of their numbers, and they can afford to die, but I can't afford to die!" Li Qin waved at Qiu Sheng and pulled him up the earthen wall.

Li Qin asked, "Which direction should the headquarters of the Xiongnu come from?" I point in the specific direction! ”

Qiu Sheng said: "Since I know that it is Liu Jiu of the Nine Accounts Department, it can only be in the northeast direction, which is the direction of Bingzhou." But when we get here, it will become due north, and it is impossible for Liu Jiu to take tens of thousands of cavalry to drill the forest, so there is no need to worry about the east. ”

Li Qin said: "I'm not worried about the direction of the attack, when I get here, it doesn't matter which direction it is." Also, what are the characteristics of the Huns going south in this season? I'm referring to the whole tribe migrating to fight, aren't they nomadic tribes, or are there only soldiers coming, just like our Han army went on an expedition? ”

Qiu Sheng didn't think about it, and said: "This season is very important to us, and it is also important to the Huns, it is the season when cattle and sheep raise fat, cattle and sheep are their crops, and they are ready for winter when they are fattened." Therefore, they can only come as soldiers, the old and weak women and children guard the grassland, and the Hun soldiers also aim to rob and leave after robbing. ”

After a pause, he said again: "Li Lang, don't worry, as long as we stay for a longer time, wait for reinforcements from the state...... Alas, we may not be able to count on reinforcements, but as long as we can hold for a while longer, the Huns themselves will retreat, and we still have hostages in our hands, and we can use the hostages to negotiate peace and let Liu Jiu retreat. The lower officials interrogated overnight, and they were all clear, and the two captives were Liu Jiu's own brothers, and they were strange goods! ”

Snorted, Li Qin said: "Master Qiu is too optimistic, the two people you said, someone also reported to me, they are all things that don't live long, if they can't survive, even if they are handed over to Liu Jiu alive, but as soon as they are handed over, they die, what do you guess will happen?" ”

Qiu Sheng's face showed a sad look and said, "Then, what should I do?" I'm afraid that Liu Jiu has to attack with all his might, so we won't be able to hold it for long, Liu Jiu is not like his two younger brothers in battle, he is powerful, he is known as the first warrior of the Huns! ”

"The first warrior of the Huns?" Li Qin heaved and said: "Even if he is the first warrior, he must have weaknesses, as long as he finds his weaknesses, any warrior who is not a warrior is a dead goods!" ”

Qiu Sheng said: "What is Liu Jiu's weakness? He is not like a weak man! ”

Li Qin said: "What his weakness is, it depends on how we do it." I still have to do me a favor Master Qiu, I plan to come to Wei to save Zhao and use this plan to defeat Liu Jiu! ”

Qiu Sheng was stunned for a moment, didn't understand, and said, "Wai Wei to save Zhao?" Who's around whom? ”

Suddenly, he shouted, "It won't be us going to surround Liu Jiu, right?" To surround his hometown? That's on the prairie outside the state, even if I gather all the troops in Liangzhou, I can't surround it, we don't even have a thousand troops now! ”
