Chapter Thirty-Eight: A Clever Scheme
On this day, in the early morning, in the sound of squeaking, the four gates of Heyin County were opened. Reading artifact. With joy, the people carried farm tools and drove cattle and sheep to cultivate and graze. For the first time in more than 20 years, they are working with a smile.
However, if you look closely, you will find that they are all young and strong, carrying bows and arrows on their backs, and there are scimitars at their waists.
And in the city, at the east, west, and south gates, a small number of soldiers of the Gao Yuan Army are leading the people to block the streets behind the city gates.
The north gate concentrated most of the troops.
"Archers, strong on the top of the city, on the roof!"
"On the paths everywhere, sandbags are blocked by General Ben!"
"Don't use the boiling oil, so as not to cause a fire in the city, all for General Ben to boil water, the kind that is bubbling and bubbling."
"Horses are placed on the main road."
Under Gao Yuan's order, the soldiers of all the troops took action, and 1,000 people were on the head of the city and on the roof, and 1,000 people blocked the passages everywhere. Subsequently, Gao Yuan led more than 1,000 cavalry to garrison in the center of the city and wait for news.
At three o'clock in the day, the people were toiling in the fields outside the city.
Suddenly, the ground began to shake rhythmically, and a black line appeared on the horizon north of the city.
For more than 20 years, the people have long been familiar with such a scene, which indicates that a large number of Hun cavalry will arrive immediately.
"Sure enough, as General Gao said, the Huns are here!"
"Everybody does what they do......."
I saw the people in the field carrying farm tools, and ran towards Heyin City in a panic. And the people on the grassland, driving cattle and sheep, are also in a panic.
With the arrival of the Hun cavalry, these Huns heard: "Run, the Huns are coming!" Hurry back to the city! ”
Liu Bao arrived with five thousand iron horsemen, his face was full of meat, he had a mustache, a fart curtain with a mink tail on his felt hat, and a gem scimitar in his hand. He was brutal, scourge the Han people, the day before yesterday heard that a Han army came to Wuyuan County, Heyin County was lost, he was furious and immediately gathered the Hun cavalry in each county, 5,000 people killed and rushed to come.
The rumbling hooves of horses chased the people who were running. However, when the distance was closer, Liu Bao suddenly found that the city gate of Heyin County was open, and there were not many defenders in sight at the head of the city, and people were constantly rushing into the city, which made the city gate not closed. He immediately cracked his mouth, turned up his mustache, and laughed: "It turned out to be a rabble, don't care about those people, and rush into the city with me!" Kill him and don't leave a chicken! ”
Liu Bao still has a military mind, he came to Heyin, he had no intention of attacking the city, but planned to repeat the old tricks, destroy the cultivated land and force the defenders of the city out of the city. However, when he realized that the city was defenseless, he changed his mind. It is useless to kill the people, take the opportunity to rush into the city and seize the city is the victory.
City.
"Report ......, lord! The Hun cavalry came extremely quickly from the direction of the North Gate! ”
Gao Yuan smiled slightly, and breathed a sigh of relief, he passed down the general order, "Wen Yuan, you lead five hundred horses out of the east gate." Zilong, you lead five hundred horsemen out of the west gate. When the enemy is blocked under the city and cannot enter the city, you will go out to the right and slew the enemy. ”
"Whoa!" The two took the order and left.
As a large number of cavalry left, only a hundred trapped-in guards remained with Gao Yuan. In the past few days, he collected the Xiongnu soldiers and smelted them, created 100 sets of vests and 100 sets of heavy armor, and turned his own guards into a heavy cavalry of 100 people.
The sound of rumbling horses' hooves sounded, and he took his personal guards and looked at the north gate.
Outside the city, the dust and smoke are billowing, and the five thousand Hun iron horsemen in the smoke and dust are really galloping thousands of horses. In just a few breaths, he came to the city.
"Run for your life!" The people who didn't have time to enter the city scattered and fled, and some actually jumped into the moat, a "chicken flying dog jumping".
Liu Bao witnessed the quack laughing, saw the city gate beginning to close, and became anxious again, brandishing a scimitar, shouting: "Rush into the city, hurry, hurry!" ”
With a clattering sound, the drawbridge began to retract. The Huns were fierce, and the strikers jumped up, and when they rushed to the suspension bridge, they smashed the mechanism of the hanging board. Dozens of horses continued to chop, and only a click sound was heard in the flying sawdust, and the connection of the chains was broken, and there was a boom and a vibration, and the hanging board that was already one meter high had fallen down.
Liu Bao was overjoyed and urged the army to move forward. The Hun warriors smashed open the gate that was about to close with their horses and rushed into the city.
I saw that the Hun cavalry was like a flood, venting from the city gate hole. The flow, thirty or fifty horsemen a second, comes from the excellent riding skills of the Huns.
Liu Bao took the lead, but after running three hundred steps on the main road leading to the city center, he was dumbfounded. I saw that on the main road fifty paces away, Gao Yuan's army laid down a dense number of rejection horses. Behind this rejection horse there are thick wooden sticks to resist, one or two layers can also break hard, so many, rushing up will definitely die.
"Stop, stop!" Finding that there was preparation in the city, panic suddenly crawled all over Liu Bao's big face, and his flesh trembled.
However, the flood water surge can not easily stop, and the front side will hit the embankment, and the back will also crash. But the Huns were human after all, and as the orders continued to be passed on, they finally stopped.
Liu Bao was pushed out for dozens of steps, he looked at the sharp spikes in front of the horse, and wiped a cold sweat. Looking at the spikes again, I said that it was almost a little bit, and I went in.
In this regard, more than 3,000 Huns rode on the road 350 meters long and 10 meters wide.
Later, according to various accounts, the situation at that time was as follows: more than 3,000 horsemen crowded people, horses crowded horses, and stretched all the way to the doorway. And more than 1,000 riders outside the city, along the moat and in the middle of the suspension bridge, form a T-shaped cluster.
The actions of the Huns were at a standstill at this moment, and the actions of the Gao Yuan army had just begun.
I saw Zhou Cang coming out of a roof on the right side of the street, with a big stone of more than 100 catties on his head in both hands, and laughed, "Rabbit cubs, call you crazy, fall for my lord's plan!" Mad, die! "Huhu, the big stone was thrown out, and it smashed the two Huns at that time.
Liao Hua appeared from the roof on the left side of the street, armed with a strong bow, and shot out with an arrow, which was a series of attacks at close range.
At this point, the Gao Yuan army sounded the horn of attack, and all the soldiers hidden on the roof and on the head of the city came out. Either archery or throwing big stones. In the face of the Huns huddled together, you only shot one and stoned one to death, and you were embarrassed to greet your comrades after the battle.
The soldiers supported by Yuan Shao and the soldiers and horses of Gao Yuan's headquarters had never fought like this, and the Huns had never been beaten so much.
The one who beats people is called a happy one, and in the end he doesn't shoot arrows, but all of them are changed to throwing arrows, and he can throw them out and kill the enemy. The Huns, on the other hand, screamed like pigs, and they wanted to shoot back.
However~
"Get out of the way, the boiling water is coming, the boiling water is coming, don't burn it!"
"Wow!" When the Huns bent their bows and arrows, and raised their faces, boiling water rained down, and their faces were suddenly full of bags, not to mention archery, all the bows and arrows were thrown, and they covered their faces.
"And the stones!"
"Wow!" The Huns' faces were full of flowers, and the arrows they shot out were all struck.
It's not a stone, it's boiling water. In this case, for the Huns, there is no other way to behave except to hug their heads and run around.
