Chapter Ninety-Nine: All Enemies Are Grass Tigers
Li Qincai doesn't care whether Qiu Sheng and Zhang Yi believe it or not, if the Hun army really comes, standing in the field outside the city, and sticking to the city wall, the result will be the same. Could it be that if you shrink into the city and live for an extra day and a half, you will be able to drag the Hun soldiers back? Something impossible!
Rather than defending the city and dying, it is better to fight to the death, the war situation is developing at all times, maybe some miracle happens, if you don't try, how can you know what the miracle is?
Standing on horseback, Li Qin shouted: "I support the army and swear to live and die with the people of Lian County, fight against the Hun vicious dogs, and never take a step back!" ”
The people looked up at him, but no one could answer, even if everyone didn't know anything about military affairs, but hundreds of people fought against tens of thousands of people, and the result even a three-year-old child knew, what is the use of faith alone? If faith is useful, then there are many Huns, and their faith is not greater?
Li Qin paused, and shouted: "I said wrong, it's not coexistence and death, but coexistence, our Han will win, and the Huns will be defeated!" ”
After shouting, there was still no answer!
Li Qin was not discouraged, and shouted: "The Han will win, and the Huns will be defeated!" ”
There is still no one to answer, not that everyone is unwilling to shout with him, but that the words he shouted are too illusory and cannot happen!
Li Qin waved his fist, and then shouted: "The Han will win, and the Huns will be defeated!" The Han will win, and the Huns will be defeated! ”
Suddenly, a shout broke out in the crowd: "The Han will win, and the Huns will be defeated!" It was not the people of Lian County who shouted, but Li Qin's horn soldiers.
Originally, no one shouted, but as soon as the horn soldiers shouted, the people shouted as if they had won the backbone: "The Han will win, and the Huns will be defeated!" The Han will win, and the Huns will be defeated! ”
In the shouting, Li Qin pointed to the north of the city and shouted: "Build fortifications there, let's all work together, even if the Hun soldiers are beaten with iron, let's grind them into iron filings, grind them into powder, work together to fight against the evil dogs, and the victory will definitely belong to us!" ”
"Work together to fight against the evil dogs, and the victory will be ours!" Thousands of people outside the city shouted together, and even the people on the city walls, when they heard the shouting, shouted along.
All of a sudden, inside and outside the city, the crowd was agitated, and there were some unrealistic beliefs about victory in the upcoming bloody battle, and the source of this belief was the Li Lang who stood on horseback and waved his fists!
Li Qin shouted in a louder voice: "All the Hun soldiers are paper tigers...... Not all the people in this era know what paper is, he changed his words and shouted: "All the Hun soldiers are grass tigers, let's burn them clean with a fire!" ”
The people shouted again: "The Hun soldiers are all grass tigers, burn them, burn them!" ”
Zhang Yi also shouted, emotional, but Qiu Sheng opened his mouth wide, did not shout, but thought in his heart: "Just by shouting, can you defeat the Hun soldiers?" It's child's play! Fighting a war is not just a matter of lip service! If anyone can shout, who can win, then the Huns must be more than us, they shout, and they must not collapse the city wall? ”
Only by strategically despising the enemy, tactically attaching importance to the enemy, and establishing confidence in victory, can we dare to go to war with a strong enemy, maintain a strong fighting spirit, be indomitable, and move forward bravely!
This is not just a slogan, this is the general mobilization of his own people before the war, and the mobilization work that a famous general must do before the battle!
Qiu Sheng didn't believe this, and that's because no one had ever done it before!
The voices of the people are getting louder and louder, with Li Qin as the center, like water ripples, radiating out in all directions, the cries are continuous, and the sound can shake the sky!
After a long time, the cries gradually stopped, and Li Qin shouted again: "From now on, everyone will work harder, use all their energy to build fortifications, defend Lian County, defend their hometown, protect their relatives, and defend themselves!" ”
The people shouted so loudly that their voices were almost hoarse, but they were all shouted again when Li Qin was so agitated! Before shouting, they were all officials who asked them to do anything, they did whatever they wanted, although they were obedient, but they didn't have any real motivation, they all thought that it was over anyway, it was better to escape, but if they fled, they couldn't escape the Hun cavalry, so everyone was disheartened and didn't have much mood to work.
But being encouraged by Li Qin so continuously, they feel that they have to do something, working for the court officials, it's all, but for themselves, they have to do something, as long as there is hope, everyone wants to live!
"Listen to Li Lang's orders, we will do whatever you tell us to do!"
Li Qin nodded and shouted, "Everyone boil the dead horse, fill your stomach first, so that you can have the strength to work!" He jumped off his horse and said to Qiu Sheng: "Master Qiu, I'll draw a map, and then build fortifications according to the map, if you want the people to contribute and complete the fortifications as soon as possible, you have to rely on you, I can't rely on me, I'm an outsider after all!" ”
Qiu Sheng grinned and thought: "You are too modest, you can motivate the people so much, if you shout, maybe the people can push you to the position of the county commander, I have to go cool!" ”
Zhang Yi stopped shouting, listening to Li Qin say this, he also muttered a little, he heard that there are Taiping Dao demons in Guanli, especially able to bewitch the people, do something against the court, sooner or later have to rebel, but look at Li Qin's style, he can bewitch the people better than those demons, he is not a demon, he is simply a demon king!
Li Qin didn't care what they thought, squatted down, drew a figure on the ground, and said: "In the past, when the enemy army attacked, you can't just say that the Hun soldiers, all the troubles must be counted, if you find that the surrounding people have entered the city, there is no population and property to rob, and they will attack the city, so we expect the enemy soldiers to not have enough siege weapons, that is absolutely not good, it can't be said that the Huns are mainly cavalry, they will not attack the city, right?" ”
Qiu Sheng nodded, and said: "That's natural, in fact, as long as there are many people, whether it is foot or cavalry, or siege, the Huns are not weak brigades, usually they come to attack, one is to send people to ask for reinforcements, and the other is to give the Hun soldiers property, begging them to retreat, otherwise the city wall of Yilian County, where can it survive now!" ”
Zhang Yi said: "This time I'm afraid that it won't work by asking for peace, killing so many of their soldiers, even if the Hun King intends to negotiate peace, his subordinates will definitely oppose it, if this time so many people die, but still accept the peace, then the next time the Huns will not listen to the call, anyway, they can extort property, who is willing to risk their lives to fight!" ”
Li Qin said: "So, we only have the road of bloody battle to the end, otherwise the city will be destroyed and people will die, I don't think everyone wants to do this, right?" ”
Qiu Sheng and Zhang Yi are both bureaucratic figures, but bureaucrats are also human beings, no matter how they usually behave as officials, but when there is a serious threat to their survival, no matter how serious they are, they will cooperate. Making use of all the forces that can be used is one thing that Li Qin must do well in front of him.
Pointing to the figure on the ground, Li Qin said: "Let's build fortifications according to this." There is less than half a day left today, and one night, plus tomorrow noon, must be built, and it must be built at all costs, and after the fortifications are built, I will do the rest! ”
Qiu Sheng and Zhang Yi nodded in agreement. At this time, Jia Xu came over and asked, "Ah Qin, we have captured the main general of the Hun soldiers, do we want to cut it now, or keep it for use?" He was seriously injured, his injuries were serious, if he kept it, he could only be seen by you, Jing Chun had no way to treat it, and he didn't even dare to pull out the arrow! ”
Li Qin sighed and said, "Have you captured the vanguard officer of the Hun soldiers?" Killing is a must-kill, but not now. I'll show him! "Get up and go to see Liu Shiyi.
Qiu Sheng and Zhang Yi are also busy with the construction of fortifications, and the people of the whole city must participate, whether they can hold the county seat depends on whether the fortifications are repaired well or not!
The whole county is mobilized here in Lian County, and all the people are preparing for the upcoming big war, and the army and the people are united and go all out!
Prairie.
A group of 3,000 Xiongnu soldiers is slowly marching, this is the second vanguard of the Nine Accounts Department this large-scale southward march, and the Gudu Marquis who leads the army is another younger brother of the Xiongnu king Liu Jiu, named Liu Heipanther.
Liu Heibao is Liu Shiyi's strongest contender for the throne, and all the Xiongnu have their own surnames, but the members of the royal family often take Han surnames, of course, not necessarily all have the same surname, just because Liu Jiu, the king of the Nine Accounts, has the surname Liu, so his younger brothers and nephews are all surnamed Liu.
The succession to the throne of the Huns is brother to brother, not necessarily to be inherited by father and son, so the Huns' struggle for the throne is often carried out among the uncles, and often the uncles are exhausted, and the nephews take advantage of it, but the big position is in front, as long as there is a little ability and capital, people are reluctant to give up the chase!
This time, the Huns of the Nine Accounts Department went south, Liu Jiu was afraid that he would lead the troops away, and as a result, his hometown was occupied by other tribes, wouldn't it be bad, so he first went to crusade against several small divisions of the Wuhuan people who were closest to him, and then brought the troops to Liangzhou.
Liu Heipan is different from Liu Shiyi, Liu Shiyi drank and broke his head, and everything was confused, but Liu Heipan is shrewd and capable, full of ruthlessness, not only ruthless to foreign enemies, but also cruel to his own people, he just has no chance and no strength, otherwise let alone Liu Shiyi, even Liu Jiu can be killed, and he will be the king of the nine tents.
The soldiers were on the way, and suddenly a large number of defeated troops rushed back to the front, all of whom were Liu Shiyi's subordinates. Liu Heipan was really surprised and delighted when he learned that Liu Shiyi was defeated and captured, and he was surprised that the Han soldiers in Lian County were so powerful that they could defeat three thousand iron cavalry, so is he also in danger, and the joy is that Liu Shiyi now knows whether he is alive or dead, and the Han soldiers have solved a big opponent for himself!
Liu Heibao carefully inquired about the defeated Hun soldiers, and learned that Lian County came to the reinforcements, called the Fujiao Army, very good at fighting, and the Han general who led the troops was extremely superb in witchcraft, after the war and the witch war, Liu Shiyi and Gebo Wu were completely defeated, and the two were captured together!
Liu Heibao was afraid that he would not be able to provoke the Han soldiers and not kill Liu Shiyi, so he immediately accelerated his march and rushed towards Lian County!
