Chapter Seventy-Two
When Shelun saw that this famous Jin soldier and military advisor of the grassland was just a pretty girl, she couldn't help but be stunned and shouted: "Don't you loosen Mr. Zhuge yet?" ”
The subordinates had already ordered to be respectful to Xiao Min, and when they heard this, they hurriedly let go of Xiao Min, and found two slave girls to help Xiao Min sit on a VIP seat.
Shelun looked left and right, "You...... You are the Zhuge Xiaomin who beat Helian so much that he didn't dare to stay in this grassland? ”
Xiao Min's full face was flushed, and her eyes were so smart that anyone's heart was pounding, such a girl, how could she be like a general who was decisive in killing?
"Didn't the Great Khan ask me what I looked like and what kind of character I was?" Xiao Min smiled Qiaoqian.
She Lun felt that the world was spinning a little, and patted his head, "Ke Dun said that Mr. is clever and ruthless, although he ...... It's just a girl, but ...... You don't need to see each other, just kill them. ”
"Oh? She wants you to kill me right away, then...... Why don't you listen to her? ”
"Hehe, how can you believe all the words of a woman? I have heard the name of Mr. Lun Jiu of our company, and I want to ask for more advice...... Moreover...... All female captives must first pass through the eyes of the Great Khan, this is our custom, how can it be changed lightly? ”
"Huh? I've heard that it seems that the Khan is going to have more sons, isn't it? Then you...... Do you want me to have a baby for you? Xiao Min's tone was soft and charming, but her eyes didn't look at Shelun.
Shelun couldn't bear it, and for some reason, Xiao Min made him feel overwhelmed and inexplicable.
She was not as fierce as the prairie women, but far more people died at her hands than all the prairie women.
She doesn't have the charm and charm of flattering men, but she is even weaker and more pitiful.
Not to mention how she helped a kid become a force, suppressing thousands of troops and horses, and making the army worship her like a god. She Lun thought to himself, if he hurt the girl in front of him, I don't know how many men would spend their lives looking for revenge, and this qiē was obtained by the girl herself with her own strength.
If you have such a "military advisor", why worry about not succeeding in big things?
She Lun swallowed his saliva for a while, thinking back to the various legends he had heard about this military division from the people of all ethnic groups who defected, although there must be a false one, but the Great Moon City of the people really stood there, especially the people who came from Helian and Yan Luxury, and what they said was at least seven points credible.
She Lun took another breath and said softly: "Sir is a master of the world, I invited Sir to come, but-"
"Just to want Otsuki City, thinking that I'm not here, Otsuki City is at your fingertips. I also know that this letter was written by you to force the prince, sue you, the prison of Dayue City is unbreakable. Xiao Min's voice was delicate.
"Humph! Since you know it's a plan, why did you come? Bragging rights! Shelen's heart jumped.
"I'm here to prove that Otsuki City can protect itself without me, no matter who the enemy is."
"Prove it with life! Is it necessary? ”
"You will definitely use the crown prince to threaten me, and if I am not in Dayue, you will not use him to threaten me, so that he will be safe."
"What if I use you to threaten him in turn?"
"I won't let you do this, my father taught me that even if you can't move your whole body, there are no less than ten ways to kill yourself, I will only make everyone hate you more, and you can't take advantage of me."
"Really? So you're here to die? Are you willing to be a prince? ”
"Shelun, on the way to become a saint, there are many people who will be sacrificed, including your own people and enemies, I advise you to know the times."
"Haha! Interesting, people say that the gentleman is versatile and wise, shouldn't it be a shaman? ”
"Shelun, if you're desperate, what if you really can't capture Dayue City? What kind of face do you have to return to the Rouran Khan Court? ”
"Humph! The road to sweating is bound to be risky, isn't it? ”
"Does that depend on whether it's worth it? How to risk? If I guessed correctly, it must be worry-free, this slut, said how the treasure in Dayue City is, if you kill me first, you can use it to bribe all the clans and push you to be the Great Khan. ”
"That's half right." She Lun's heart flashed Murong Ming's face.
"Ha, the other half, it's just that there is another internal response in Dayue City, and the mysterious death of Jiabao's maid not long ago must have something to do with it!"
Shelun was shocked in his heart, but his face was silent.
"Shelun, let me tell you, we defeated Helian in the first place, relying on the tunnels under the Great Moon City, do you think we won't see death there? Jiabao is the holder of the key, and she died suddenly, don't we think about it? If you dare to attack from there, and then the ambush will be exhausted, and you will have a place to bury? ”
"I don't believe it, why are you suing me? Wouldn't it be better to hit us by surprise with ambushes? ”
Xiao Min sneered, "I won't tell you, you will also use your braincase to test how hard the knife is, and if I, Zhuge Xiaomin, simply introduce you into the city and destroy you like this, you won't be convinced, right?" ”
"Ha, when I was crisscrossing the grassland, you were still in your mother's womb, do you think you can let me withdraw from the army with a single word?"
"No, now that I'm no longer in the city, even if you use troops against Otsuki, I will tell you at the last moment before you are struck by you, when and where you will be beaten, and if you say anything wrong, you will kill me immediately, how about it?"
"......" Shelun calmed Xiao Min's words for a while.
"I just want to see if you dare to know that there are tigers in the mountains, and you prefer to go to the tiger mountain, the ancestors captured Meng Shu seven times and made the southwest Dading, we don't like a gamble?"
"Sir is interested, then...... How dare Shelun? ”
******
The next day, Shelun repainted his sweat armor robe, and ordered someone to apply sesame oil, and appeared majestically outside Xiaomin's carriage.
"Sir, when the sun is in the sky today, we are already thirty miles away from Dayue City, if Sir, if you don't want to bet with me, it's still too late."
"Oh! Now that the Great Khan has spoken, why don't we start now? ”
"Start?"
"Yes, in fact, it started when I first arrived yesterday, and the Great Khan wanted to threaten me with the crown prince, and he wanted to threaten the prince with me, but the prince is no longer in the hands of the Great Khan, and the first plan of the Great Khan has long been frustrated."
"When did you find out?"
"Although it is not a plan I have arranged in advance, at least half of your plan will definitely fail, the prince is no one else, don't underestimate his appeal, if I am him, I will plot against those Xianbei people in your base camp, if Dajin and Xianbei attack inside and outside, how long can Shelun survive?"
Shelun's face changed: "The Rouran Alliance is complicated, how can it be so easy to rebel?" He didn't know that his answer had indirectly confirmed Xiaomin's guess.
Xiao Min smiled contentedly.
When he was middle-aged, he saw Xiao Min's smile, although he was among the armies, he didn't feel stupid for a while.
"Since Sima Dan has to get off, your rear may not be as safe as you think now, do you think...... Still want to attack Otsuki? ”
"Huh! Little yellow-haired girl, tomorrow morning, the siege battle will begin, I really want to see what the famous grassland Dajin army division will have, tell you, even if you don't take the secret road, a frontal attack on Dayue can't stop our iron hooves! ”
******
At the end of the next day, the sky was still pitch black, and countless torches suddenly lit up on the horizon of the four sides of Otsuki City.
The torches separated the sky and land like a red line, stretching out ruggedly and completely encircling Otsuki Castle.
The line of fire began to move downward, as if the earth was burning, and the range of the flames continued to expand downward, and at the same time, the sound of drums and trumpets poured into Otsuki Castle like a tide.
The head of Dayue City was also full of torches, and all the elders and leading generals arrived at the head of the first-line city, just in time to see that the Rouran people had finally closed and pressed towards Dayue City.
Long Er and Zu Chong were both in Beicheng, seeing that all the armies were already in place, Zu Chong was still worried, "General Long, the prince and the military division are not in the city, the morale of this army is ......"
Long Er smiled, "Although the military advisor is not in the army, she has already arranged a strategy, isn't this like being with us?" Our meeting last night was arranged according to the arrangement of the military division, and there will be no mistake today. ”
"Yes......"
"General Zu, the military advisor once said that your bravery is better than the prince, we have the wisdom of the military advisor, and we do not lose the courage of the prince, what is there to fear? The armies are watching you take the lead! ”
Zu Chong remembered that Xiao Min had experienced adventures and was depressed, and Long Er's words did not arouse his morale too much.
Jia Bao also arrived at the head of the city at this time, and she made a special trip to cheer up the army, "General Zu, the current situation of the military division depends on the general, as long as the general wins, the military division will naturally be safe, and the military advisor has secretly spoken to me in private,...... She...... I admire the general very much, and he is an invincible hero in the world! ”
Long Er was on the side, and couldn't help but look sideways at Jiabao, he didn't expect Jiabao to come up with such words to inspire Zu Chong.
Sure enough, Zu Chong's spirit was shocked, and he shouted, like a golden jade shatter, "The army listened to the order, cheered up, and today I asked the Rouran people to go back to see the old mother and wife!" ”
******
When the sky was bright, the east, west and south cities of Dayue City were already surrounded by slave soldiers of all kinds of clothes, and they all prepared simple cloud ladder long ropes, ready to exchange their lives for the control of the wall.
Looking down from the wall, these Hun slaves who were a stone's throw away were densely packed, but they were not noisy, and there was a silent determination to die in the crowd, and when the siege drums sounded, they would flock to the city walls, hoping to grab a glimmer of life.
The people of Otsuki City knew that behind the crowd was the Warlords, and only by making these slaves afraid of the killing objects at the head of the city more than the long arrows of the Warlords could they stop these people who were frantically struggling on the line of death, otherwise, these slaves who were in despair and sometimes only sought relief could gnaw everyone in the city to death with their teeth.
Some of the children of rich families who had just entered the battlefield were so frightened that their faces turned pale and their legs shook when they first came into contact with the dense cold gaze.
There are constantly veterans in the city to cheer up the recruits, especially the generals who climbed into Dayue City with Wen Qiang in this way.
"Don't draw the bow, the knives are all on the ground, what kind of energy is wasted now?"
"They may not dare to attack this city, because with me here, Lao Tzu is here to stare at it, they know that they dare not come, what are they afraid of? Listen, those who want to withdraw their urine are now retreating to the city, and wait for them to see how big our ** is! ”
"Last year, such a high siege vehicle still can't attack? This year, we all went outside the city, the hoplites in the north city are outside the city, and the regular army is outside the city, and I am still waiting for the Huns to attack the city wall and make a meritorious service, drink some spicy! ”
Finally, the soldiers on Otsuki City also slowly calmed down, and a gust of wind blew, rolling up a fierce aura.
******
North Side.
A real battlefield.
The gate of the northern city was wide open, and the two thousand heavy armored infantry Chen Bing were outside the city, their shields and spears were shining, and they were far away from each other with the Rouran cavalry.
The left and right flanks of the infantry were each with five hundred heavy cavalry.
The men and horses of the heavy armored cavalry are all wearing iron armor, and ordinary swords and guns are difficult to hurt in the slightest, and the defense is especially better than that of the divine armor soldiers, but the biggest disadvantage is that they cannot fight for a long time.
The armor of the men and horses together is more than 100 catties, although the soldiers are on horses, but they charge normally, the men and horses can only last two or three times, and the war horses cannot march as quickly as light horses, and the mobility is not enough.
Dayue City can raise a thousand heavy cavalry, which is the limit, each cavalry, with two auxiliaries, two war horses, and now although it has been deployed to the battlefield, the knights are sitting on the ground, and the heaviest cuirass is still placed on the ground, and when the big war begins, they will put on the armor and mount the horse.
The light cavalry of Rouran did not dare to charge the heavy cavalry, nor did they dare to attack the hoplites, and the main general did not give the order to attack when the city gate was wide open.
Shelun personally went to the front line and made a decision: to transfer the slaves who were originally used to storm the city walls here, and use infantry against infantry.
More than ten times the number of infantry, even if poorly equipped, could still have an advantage.
You must be flexible in using soldiers, you can't scare me, little yellow-haired military division.
The robbery of the city is to gamble with their lives, and they deserve to die, and the slaves cannot but gamble under the drive of the warlords.
However, it is much better to deal with the infantry, each time you kill an ironclad soldier, you will not only get freedom, but also get a sheep, the "force" of the sheep can be warmed, and you can also kill the barbecue after, such a battle does not need to be fought by the warlord.
The Huns' infantry, essentially composed of slaves, suddenly turned into a murderous contingent and hurried into battle.
The cavalry next to the Otsuki heavy infantry did not get on their horses, but just stared coldly at the battlefield.
******
The battle horn finally sounded.
The scorching sun was in the sky, and the Hun infantry who roared and rushed towards the Dayue infantry formation were blackly suppressed, and they scrambled to be the first, as if the mere number of two thousand was not enough to kill them.
The Great Moon Infantry marched forward to meet the rhythm led by the beat of drums.
In the eyes of the Huns, the spears of the Dayue infantry that were originally pointing to the sky were suddenly flushed, and the spear blades were dense like a wall, and it was impossible for the Huns who were rushing to the front to stop, so they could only raise the wooden shield in their hands and grit their teeth and rush away.
With a bang, the two sides collided together, and the thick and long spear pierced through most of the wooden shields and pierced into the body of the Huns.
The first two rows of Huns were all pierced, and the pressure behind them arrived, and for a while, I don't know how many corpses were crowded onto the big shield of the Dayue infantry array, and the Dayue infantry array could only stop and bear the weight of tens of thousands of people.
"Javelin, shoot!"
Rows of javelins flew up from the Great Moon infantry formation, nailing many hostile Huns to the ground.
Javelins also flew in the Hun array, but they couldn't break through the shields of the Great Moon soldiers.
The weapons of the Huns were not far away, and the Huns in the front row were either killed or wounded.
Otsuki Infantry Formation: "Hey! Yo! Hey! Yo! When the shield is opened, the spear stabs outward, and when it is withdrawn, it always carries flesh and blood.
At this time, Rouran's cavalry began to shoot long arrows at the Otsuki infantry from both sides, but it had little effect.
The Hun cavalry on both flanks slowly pressed forward.
******
Zu Chong laughed: "Brothers, get on the horse!" ”
There was a loud bang, and in a moment the hoplites, with the help of the auxiliaries, all put on their cuirasses and stepped onto their horses.
These war horses were taller than the steppe horses, and because of the abundance of horse material, they were all full of strength, and the Great Moon Knights rode on their horses, and five hundred horses on the left and right wings were lined up, like a huge scythe with a vicious murderous aura, and even the most fierce Rouran cavalry was unable to move forward for a while.
The light cavalry on the steppe, relying on the speed of horses and accurate arrows, rushed and killed face-to-face, and was not the opponent of heavy cavalry.
Such a thousand heavy cavalry is enough to dominate in the Western Regions, and unless Rouran launches a full-scale attack and consumes the combat power of Dayue City, it will be difficult to win.
The tactics believed in by the steppe peoples were by no means a hard attack, and the Rouran cavalry did not dispatch for a while, but turned into a warlord, constantly putting pressure on the slave infantry, trying to exchange the death of the slaves for a breakthrough in the center.
******
"Huh!" Xiao Min, who also arrived at the battlefield, sneered, and Shelun, who was with him, turned red on his face, but just snorted coldly.
The Hun infantry finally brought some huge trees and opened the way first, trying to break the iron plate of the Dayue heavy troops.
Looking down from the head of Dayue City, I saw that the black pressure of the Huns hundreds of steps in front of the city gate was simply resisted by an infantry phalanx, and on both sides were the cavalry that had been mounted on the horse lined up to defend it, but the Dayue heavy cavalry was only far away from the surveillance of a stone's throw away, and there was no strict defense, and the enemy just did not dare to break through from their eyes.
