The shouts of the 2,000 hoplites were uniform, and every time they exerted their strength, they shouted loudly and loudly, while the Hun slaves shouted irregularly, and the number of the two sides was very different, but they still held each other.

Some of the Hun infantry finally "overflowed" to both sides of the infantry formation under too much pressure from the rear, attempting to flank from the left and right flanks.

At this time, bows and arrows from the Otsuki heavy cavalry and their auxiliaries flew in a rain.

The hoplites were not afraid of long arrows, and the long arrows were shot into the bodies of the Huns.

The ten captains of the hoplites suddenly shouted in unison, and everyone said, "Hey! At the same time, countless javelins flew out of the Dayue infantry array, more dense than any previous attack, and most of the Huns were slaughtered by the Huns in front of them, due to the urging of the supervising team, the Huns were crowded together, and the javelins pierced two or three people at the same time.

Then, the Great Moon infantry seized the opportunity to charge forward.

The Hun infantry finally collapsed, ignoring the rain of arrows of the warlords, and fled backwards for their lives.

******

At this time, on a hill not far away, Duoyan and his men were also watching the battle, and when they saw the Xiongnu collapse, some people laughed.

There are also people who have a deeper city, "Duoyan, these ironclad soldiers are not easy to fight, right?" ”

"The cavalry has nothing, as long as they are like wolves, fighting and walking, their men and horses will be tired to death. These infantry were a bit troublesome, and could only starve them directly around them, and now they were leaning on a city, retreating very close, and it was really difficult to deal with, so they could only use heavier weapons. ”

"Humph! Could it be that bald warriors would be afraid of these clumsy people? ”

"They can't catch up with us, so we can wait for our chance."

"Waiting for an opportunity? Duoyan, what would you do if we were trapped in the city and it was this phalanx that stood in our way? ”

"It can only attack its horns, there is only one enemy there, and the spears are not too dense, as long as we use heavy weapons such as chain cones or large cones, we can tear through one of their horns and make a gap."

"Duoyan, you're right, but if we have a hundred or so pairs of heavy armor like that, we can tear through no matter how big the infantry formation is."

"Guoguo, you are so smart! Good! , we see the opportunity to grab some more back. ”

******

The phalanx of the Rouran clan seemed restless.

The Great Moon infantry did not chase the retreating Hun infantry, because of this, the formation was loose, and the enemy cavalry was destroyed as soon as it arrived.

In the Rouran array, twenty or thirty carriages were listed with a bang.

Each carriage is a nomadic family's belongings, and some large ones, such as Shelun's tent cart, require dozens of horses to pull it.

Now these carriages were all from the nobility, and they were all drawn by a dozen or twenty horses, and the horses were also covered in armor and blindfolded.

She Lun couldn't help but be triumphant when he saw Xiao Min's face change, "No matter how strong the infantry phalanx is, can it withstand the impact of hundreds of horses and carriages?" As long as they are in chaos and the cavalry is swarmed up, these few people will not be enough for us to kill. ”

"I can't imagine that the Great Khan actually understands the principle that all kinds of troops on the battlefield are mutually reinforcing, and the chariot has been withdrawn from the battlefield hundreds of years ago, because the cavalry is more agile than the chariot, but in the face of the monolithic infantry, such a hard charge is indeed a way."

"Hah! See what other plans you have? ”

"Get out of the way! It's not worth hitting people with horses. ”

"Huh! Isn't that what you call a pre-engineered strategy? ”

The dragon ear waved the handsome flag, and the infantry formation split through the middle, like an open door, diagonally to both sides.

Behind the open gate is a plain, and at the end is Otsuki Castle, the gate of which is wide open.

I don't know who gave the order, the Xianbei and Wusun cavalry on the left and right flanks of the Rouran army galloped out, looking at the city gate and rushing to grab it, but the Rouran people surprisingly only maintained a posture of slowly pressing in.

Xiao Min smiled: "You told your subordinates to be careful not to walk in front, didn't you?" ”

Shelun sneered: "How can the Chinese army move around, it's better to hold on to the key points." ”

"Humph! I want you to be tricked! Listen clearly, there are ambushes inside and outside the city! ”

Shelun felt a kind of heart-pounding excitement, I don't know if it was because he was afraid of being ambushed, or it shook Xiao Min's heartstrings.

The Xianbei and Wusun people rushed straight through the place where the Dayue infantry had withdrawn, and almost rushed to the city gate when the ballista on the city gate and the city wall fired at the same time, and dozens of huge arrows swept down a group of cavalry, but they still couldn't stop the Huns coming from behind.

At this time, the Rouran Chinese army was finally launched, and the sound of hooves like thunder merged into the torrent of Xianbei people.

The leading cavalry rushed into the city gates, and the houses on all sides of the streets of the city rained down like countless arrow towers, and they fell off their horses with screams.

The cavalry outside the city gate was eager to support their comrades, so they had already let go of their speed and rode with all their might.

Suddenly, the black shadows on the ground flashed, and the squeaky and strange screams filled all directions, and the Huns had not seen clearly, but they had felt that the sky was spinning, and they fell under the horses, either crushing their horses to death and crushing them, or trampling on the four hooves of other war horses, and the death and injury were delayed for a moment.

As soon as Shelun suppressed his mind, he saw the cavalry in the rear, and suddenly rolled down like a gourd in front of the city gate, and he couldn't believe it, when someone next to him exclaimed: "God! It's an earth rat, and it has drilled many holes, and the horses have broken their feet! ”

Shelen was dumbfounded, and couldn't figure out why there were so many earth rats in the middle of the charge, not only that, but the rat holes seemed to be so deep and strong that they would not be trampled and have a fatal effect on the horse's feet.

At this time, the Dayue hoplites on both sides divided into rows of sweeping squads, combing through the central position of the wounded Huns and horses like a comb, the infantry were not afraid of rat holes, and the spears only picked up the Hun cavalry who fell off their horses to greet them, only for a moment, the corpses were piled up like a mountain, and the blood became a lake, and the Hun cavalry did not dare to step into the position full of rat holes, and did not dare to dismount and fight, and watched the same clan being slaughtered.

Suddenly, a group of Rouran cavalry jumped from the war horse to the ground, carrying a long axe and a big knife, and rushed to the position, to rescue their companions, these people are extremely tall, even the heavy weapons in their hands can not stand it, the big moon soldiers have been scattered into countless small formations, and they cannot form a large formation among the many dead corpses, and they will break through the gap in the chaos.

She Lun watched the elite warriors of his clan risk their lives to rescue their companions, and fought with Da Yuebu, and it was difficult to distinguish the victory or defeat, and on both sides of the big array, Da Yue's heavy armored cavalry was ready to move, he was shocked and angry in his heart, and put down his raised hand several times, hesitating for a while.

Xiao Min sneered, "Let's let them come back first!" Otherwise...... More dead and wounded are yet to come. ”

Shelun felt a chill in his heart, so he could only wave his hand and order the army to retreat.

In this way, the first round of Shelun's offensive came to an end.

******

"Haha!" When Shelun returned to the handsome tent, Xiao Min beside him suddenly laughed.

Shelun endured his anger, "What can the military advisor teach me?" ”

"Finally convinced? I couldn't hold back my smile in front of your subordinates, and I took care of your face. ”

She Lun's face turned red and he was furious, "You fell into my hands, let me fish and meat, aren't you afraid that I will rape you first and then kill you?" ”

Xiao Min's face turned pale, "Is it useful to be greedy for life and afraid of death on the battlefield?" Laugh at you, laugh at you, besides, you could have defeated just now, but you lost the fighter, isn't it ridiculous? ”

Shelun was suddenly deflated, "Could have been defeated? Strategist, what's the matter with those earth rats? Do you have a demon spell? ”

"Humph! I knew that when you saw the city gate, you couldn't help but rush and set up this "foot folding array!" "Explain the principle briefly.

Shelun admired it in his heart, but after thinking about it, he was not convinced, "You said that I had a chance to win, should I enter the "folding foot formation" with infantry? Then you don't have any more ambushes? ”

"Huh! Yes, but it's too late now, so I say you don't have the courage to dominate the grassland, and now the city is ready, and your next step will definitely not succeed! ”

Shelun was furious, "I don't believe it!" Hum! What's so great about foreseeing cavalry storming the city gates? Is this also called a miracle calculation? Our next move is the real surprise soldier, you can't predict it in the city, I want to enter the palace from the tunnel, and see if the famous military advisor of the grassland can be calculated ten days ago! ”

"If you don't believe it, I can't help it, anyway, if you dare to go or not, I have already calculated it! Hum! "Min's head is held high.

She Lun glared at Xiao Min angrily, pressed at her, and suddenly pushed Xiao Min to the ground, about to pounce.

Xiao Min had a sly smile on her face.

Shelun suddenly stopped, looked up to the sky and snorted, "Interesting!" Until this moment, the military advisor has never been afraid, our society is the overlord of the grassland, I must convince you one day, as long as you can help me win the world, I will name you Kedun, and give half of the sky to you! ”

******

Bai Ti led Sima Dan and Niu Tian to the top of a mountain, and looked from a distance, behind another mountain, there was a dark red in the sky, and in the dark night, it was quite clear.

"Indeed, it is the army of Shelun." Sima Dan said in a deep voice.

"There are more than 100,000 people, and their families are still happy, these are all capable warriors." Berti replied, "With such a force, it is enough to turn the Western Regions into a scorched earth under fire, and the prince still wants us to help you fight them?" ”

"This is also his country's military strength, and there are sixty or seventy thousand men in Dayue, and you will not be less, are their men ** bigger than yours?"

"Prince, the men of Qiuzi can hold weapons, but in the face of these people who have picked up their lives on the battlefield since childhood, there will be no chance of survival."

"So all the men of Otsuki participate in soldier training."

"Alright! But is it too late? Besides, training is not the same as actual combat. ”

"Every one of the Great Moon men will go to the battlefield, as long as Guizi can join us, we will have a hundred seats in each Senate, cooperate equally, and each will have an archon, so what's so terrible about Rouran?"

"Prince, I admire the Roman system very much, but don't forget that the king is my uncle, and I deeply agree with what you have taught along the way, but my housewife will not agree." Berti smiled.

"I'm also the prince of the Jin Kingdom, but I didn't want to go back."

"That's because of the danger. Besides, Da Yue is not Da Jin. ”

"As a nobleman, you enjoy glory and wealth every day, but if one day Rouran besieges the city like this, why don't the people open the city and bury you with you? As long as Rouran announces that the city will not be killed, you will soon only be left with a few thousand soldiers, and it is more likely that the soldiers and even the generals will rebel, why not? This is not their city, and besides, you usually eat and clothe well, what is not their blood and sweat? ”

Bertie's face darkened, and anyone who has been to the battlefield is not so stupid as to think that someone will die for you just because of his status as a nobleman.

"Besides, you are the king's nephew, but if you can become an archon one day, wouldn't you be the real first?"

"Prince, consul or not, it's only a term of office of one or two years, but I really think that if the whole country can be harmonious and the people are rich, then the Roman system is indeed better than ours, even if I can be a nobleman for a lifetime, what about my son? I don't want to watch him betray or kill the people. ”

Ushida exclaimed, "Yes! If it's like Otsuki City, everything is your own, then even if you fight to the death, you can't let Rouran come in.

Sima Dan nodded, "Even if it is Rouran, they are quite equal internally, if Shelun can't convince the public, it will never be his turn to be the Great Khan, so he thought of bribing the tribe with treasure." ”

"But like Persia," said Berti, "religion can also be used to control the people, and the Sassanid emperor has converted to Manichaeism. ”

"Teacher Dinis also told me about this, the revivalist of Manichaeism, Hazra spread his teachings widely, the shamans of the ancient religion were too corrupt and degenerate, and the Sassanid Emperor also used Manichaeism to reform the country."

"The fact is that Manichaeism has taken Ctesiphon, and I was a hostage there, and within a few years, it has become a large monastery. The men of the Hazraites clothed the Persians in black. ”

"Look!" Niu Tian pointed to it, and the red on the horizon became brighter, and there was a faint sound of drums.

"There are so many bonfires, they are going to battle tonight, and they are mobilizing. ”

Sima Dan patted his horse and led the two down the mountain, "Our infantry will definitely not be able to catch up with them, but Dayue City is not so easy to break, so we will follow slowly." ”

"Huh! I didn't promise to help Otsuki. ”

"I will never let you die in vain, bring more torches, war drums and horns, and I will let you know the breadth and profundity of my Central Plains Art of War!"

******

Enraged, Shelun no longer had any reservations, and gathered his subordinates and all the dependent tribes together, vowing to make a desperate gamble and raze Otsuki City to the ground.

When the little Khan, Qu Shuai, and the virtuous kings of the tribe heard that there was a tunnel that could go straight to the palace of Dayue City, they were all overjoyed, and the fatigue of the night was swept away.

She Lun raised a key the size of a dagger and shouted: "Immortal Heaven is with us, the key to the authentic is handed over to me by Murong Ming of the Xianbei clan, proving that Immortal Heaven chose me as the Great Khan, as long as the Great Moon is captured, there are countless weapons, women, gold and silver treasures, and I can comfort the loyal people of Immortal Heaven!" ”

The cheers and cheers were pouring out.

She Lun ignored Xiao Min and was by his side, telling the tribal leaders the antecedents and details of the plan.

Xiao Min just sneered.

In the cheers of everyone, Shelun felt Xiao Min's sneer under the torches as bright as day like a cold spear, and couldn't help but get angry again in his heart, shouting: "Zhuge Xiaomin, you will be my Kedun at sunrise tomorrow, no matter what!" ”

"Humph!" Xiao Min raised her chin proudly.

"You don't believe it! Ha, tonight to break the Great Moon City, if you don't accept it, you can't help but be hard-mouthed, even if I lose tonight, I will take you to the grassland even more, because only you can help me become a Great Khan, I will call you Kedun, you are not allowed to be unwilling, I am a man who will not give up, Changshengtian sent you to me, that is, to ask you to help me, wahaha! ”

And in the face of Shelun, who was a little crazy, Xiao Min couldn't help but change color.

Brother Dan, do you hear that? This man who is rude than a wild bull said that even if he is defeated, he will take me away, they are all hairy and blood-drinking**, will you let them take me?

Shelun was a little proud of Xiao Min's frightened expression, but he didn't panic for no reason, so he hurriedly collected his mind and led the army to set off.

******

The shouting of killing woke Jiabao from his sleep, and when he was half-asleep, he saw Sima Dan, who was entangled in a male circle, rushing into the bedroom and shouting: "Quick! Follow me! ”

Jiabao bounced up on the bed, but found that the front of the bed was empty, only the sound of thunderous shouts of killing vibrated back and forth in the air.

The maid was hugged into the bedroom by the guards, and the chief guard looked terrified, "City Lord, the main palace is broken, escape from the tunnel, we will protect the City Lord, please leave immediately!" ”

Garbo was momentarily distracted, remembering the day of Mila's tragic death, even though the palace was still safe at that time, but tonight it was suddenly broken.
