Section 1269 Cruel Huns

In May of the sixth year of Yuande (fifteen), the Xiongnu right valley Liwang Yishi's Daxu, from the north of Zaoyang, rushed to the pass of the Han Great Wall located in Zaoyang County. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

At the moment when the Huns were discovered, the Yang-making beacon immediately lit up wolf smoke, thick wolf smoke, and rushed to the sky.

Then, behind this beacon tower, one after another beacons and tunbao, wolf smoke lit.

Along the Great Wall, the warning signal was immediately transmitted throughout the north.

Only an hour later, starting from the Flying Fox Ancient Road, the Flying Fox Army, who had just walked out of Changshan (Taihang Mountain) and entered the area of Zhulu County, had already seen the wolf smoke coming from the north.

"Tell the whole army, speed up!" Guo Mao, the commander of the Flying Fox Army, immediately ordered: "The light cavalry goes first, and the light cavalry vanguard must arrive in Fuyang after three days!" ”

"No!" The captains responded with high morale.

Almost at the same time, Li Guang, the general of light vehicles, and his entourage, who had already entered the territory of Shanggu County, saw the mobilization of the entire Shanggu County on the side of the straight road.

I saw that the entire straight road was full of traffic at once, and a large number of mobilized county soldiers and militia marched along the road, protecting and surrounding the people and moving backwards.

The families of Lou Fu Qi and Wu Sun Qi were crowded together, driving hundreds of thousands of livestock, tens of thousands of ox carts and sheep carts, carrying countless wealth, and retreating in an orderly manner under the protection of the army.

"Step ......" Li Guang stopped an officer of Shanggu County who was on a mission and asked, "The Huns have entered the Kou?" How many people are there? ”

The other party glanced at Li Guang and his entourage vigilantly, and found that they were dusty and well-armoured, so he couldn't help but be more vigilant.

A soldier on Li Guang's side hurriedly said: "My lord is the late captain of the guard and the general of the light car, and the Son of Heaven ordered Li Guang, the lieutenant of the Yan Kingdom to guard the county of Yuyang County!" ”

When the other party heard this, he immediately stood in awe and bowed: "I have seen the general in my humble manner!" Don't dare to hide from the general, the Huns appeared in the place of Zaoyang two hours ago, and then, a thousand Hu cavalry captured a fort guarded by our army, at present, our army is entangled with the Huns in the Great Wall between Zaoyang and Shipi! ”

"At present, the strength of the Xiongnu who have been confirmed to enter the Kou has its headquarters of the King of Li, the headquarters of the King of Outuo and the headquarters of the Xubu clan, and there are 10,000 cavalry of the other four tribes, with a total strength of at least 30,000 cavalry!"

"Thirty thousand rides?" Li Guang's eyebrows immediately twisted up, according to intelligence, this time the main force of the Huns moved eastward, and there were at least 100,000 horsemen!

Now that there are 30,000 in Zaoyang, where did the other 70,000 go?

Almost without thinking about it, Li Guang immediately turned over and said to the officer: "The king's matter is urgent, please say hello to the general Guan Gong and the county guard Thorn Gong for me!" ”

Then he galloped with his soldiers.

Li Guang knew that Yuyang County was afraid that the situation would soon become bad.

"Yuyang's county soldiers, the total number is only three thousand, counting the Great Wall soldiers, it is only seven thousand, even if the army is expanded, it can only be expanded at most in these days, that is, more than 10,000 people, but their enemies are probably more than 50,000!" Li Guang was really anxious in his heart.

If Yuyang is lost, the entire defense line will collapse completely, and the Huns can coerce Yan Ji, and the Han army will fight a decisive battle in Jicheng, and even cross Yan Ji, drive straight in, and the army will come to Handan.

In that case, millions of Han people will face the scourge of the Hun cavalry, and thousands of miles of mountains and rivers in the north will be full of blood!

Even if the Huns' attack was frustrated, they who controlled Yuyang could wreak havoc on the entire Zaoxiang and cause millions of Han subjects to suffer military disasters!

Therefore, Li Guang knew that he couldn't afford to wait at all.

He has to be faster!

……………………………………

At this time, the Great Wall between Zaoyang and Shibi County was plugged down.

Yishi looked at the Han army who was waiting strictly on the defense line of the Great Wall, bending his bow and arrows, his face was pale.

Originally, he thought that the building that made the sun was annoying, and he thought that there was a cheap one to pick up, but how did he know that this was the situation?

Looking at the defense line composed of Lou Furen, Han people and Wusun people on the Great Wall, he gritted his teeth and called his cronies Tu Chieftain Ke Ma Dan, and said to him: "Send someone to this king to tell the Han Dynasty and Lou Nuren and Wusun people on the opposite side: If you kneel down and surrender to my Great Huns, you can live, otherwise, once my army steps in, there will be no chickens and dogs!" ”

"Yes!" Colmadan bowed his head.

"Someone!" Yishi waved his hand to call a nobleman and ordered: "Go and select five hundred male slaves for me, give them weapons, and let them rush to the Great Wall of the Han Dynasty!" ”

"Tell these damned slaves: If they die in battle, then I will pardon their families, or kill them all!"

"Yes!" The nobleman immediately came to the camp of thousands of Lou Fu slaves who were driven by the Huns, and then led men and women out of the camp of more than a thousand men, women, young and old.

The former Loufu tribe was one of the three carriages of the Xiongnu Shan Yu.

Parallel with Aries and Zhelan.

At that time, on the grassland, the skills of the Lou Fu shooter were praised!

When the Loufu tribe was at its peak, there were thousands of towns, a population of nearly 50,000, and tens of thousands of slaves!

It is one of the largest tribes in the entire Makunan!

However, the Battle of Mayi, in which Lou Nuren surrendered after being surrounded, immediately changed everything.

Enraged, the Huns sent 30,000 horsemen to storm the annoying pasture, killing everyone who dared to resist, and then reducing the rest to slavery.

Except for a few people, because of their friendship with Huyan Dangtu and other Xiongnu nobles, the rest, no one was spared.

Becoming a slave is the most painful thing in the steppe.

Not only do they have to bear extremely harsh and onerous burdens, they also have no status.

Within two or three years, the tribal population had fallen to a low point, and now it was less than 10,000 people.

Others either died, or fled by various means, or knelt down and became slaves to other tribes.

But the Huns still did not let them go.

Now, just use them as cannon fodder!

"Because your people dared to betray the great Xiongnu Da Dan Yu, and now they dare to block the army of the Great Huns! Therefore, the great King of Yougu Lili has decided to let you prove that you are indeed loyal to the minions of the Great Huns! A Xiongnu nobleman said with a hideous face to these annoying people who were dragged out: "You must rush to the Great Wall of the Han Dynasty, and whoever dares to retreat will behead all the slaves!" ”

Then, a bronze collar with a rough handle and even a wooden spear were thrown to these scrawny men.

And those old and weak women and children were all threatened by the Huns and knelt on the ground.

One by one, the executioners raised the butcher knives in their hands.

These annoying men glanced at each other, and then silently picked up their weapons, lined up one by one, and walked forward.

Yishi rode his horse and watched from a small hill as these poor buildings annoyed towards their end.

"Why did the king send them to their deaths?" The 10,000 horsemen of the Sub clan, Su Bu, asked puzzled.

"Humph!" Yishi sneered and snorted: "This king wants to use these lowly slaves to warn the Lou Fu slaves and the evil slaves, so that they know what will happen to the Great Huns who betray me?" ”

"In addition, it is to let the people of the Han Dynasty know that it is not right to stubbornly resist my Great Huns!"

"The people of the Han Dynasty should obediently kneel down, offer wealth and women, and serve my Great Huns obediently!"

"The king is wise!" King Outuo on the side immediately patted his horse and said: "If Yin Zhixian had half the wisdom of the king, he would not have ended up like that......

"Hahaha......" Yishi laughed triumphantly.

In this southern invasion, none of the main troops of the Han Dynasty were there, which was a great opportunity for him to make a name for himself!

As for the Lou Furen, the Wusun people and the Han Dynasty people on the opposite side of the Great Wall, they are just a group of rabble, local chickens and dogs!

In Yishi's eyes, the army he is now commanding is strong and strong, mighty, with 30,000 horsemen!

The people of the Han Dynasty did not have a god horse, and the only way to kneel down and surrender was to be defeated!

……………………………………

On the Great Wall, Guan He held a clairvoyant mirror and watched the movements of the Hun army.

"Are these Huns crazy?" Guan He looked at the hundreds of ragged Huns, holding weapons, and walked towards the Great Wall of the Han army.

This Great Wall is not a small hill that can be easily broken through.

You can see it from the topography!

Zaoyang County is an endless flat grassland, but from the southeast of Zaoyang, the terrain begins to gradually rise, to the area between Zaoyang and Shipi, the mountains begin to rise, and there are four rivers meandering into it, the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack!

Not to mention hundreds, even thousands of enemies, in a hurry, also rest and break through any pass on this line of defense!

At this time, an official came to report: "General, the Hun envoy shouted under the stopper......"

Hearing this, Guan He smiled slightly, and asked, "What is that Yidi talking about?" ”

"Returning to the general, the other party said: If we don't surrender, then after the Huns break the mouth, there will be no ......chickens and dogs left."

"Arrogance!" Guan He was furious when he heard this, the Huns didn't take him in their eyes at all, which made Guan He, who was determined to be as famous as his father and ancestors, unable to bear it at all!

But Guan He knows very well that his current strength is limited, and the entire Loufu army only has an establishment of 7,000 people, even if you add the military strength of the Wusun other troops, it is only more than 8,000 people.

Now, the reinforcements sent by Fuyang have not yet arrived, so he can only defend first, wait for the reinforcements from Fuyang to arrive, and then deal with these Huns!

However, Guan He could not tolerate the Huns provoking him so much.

"Order the crossbow captain to prepare for General Ben to shoot the Hun envoy to death as long as he leaves the fortress a hundred steps away!" Guan He ordered sharply.

Do you want to run if you pretend to be forced? No way!

Although Lou Fuqi does not have the latest equipment of the Han army's current strong crossbow troops, the big yellow crossbow still has more than a dozen handles.

With the power of the rhubarb crossbow, Guan He believed that as long as he hit, then the Huns would definitely die.

As for the two countries not fighting each other, what is going on......

He didn't kill the messenger!

Since the other party has left the Great Wall and completed its mission, it is not a messenger, but an enemy of the Huns.

Shooting enemies on the battlefield is a normal thing!

……………………………………

And at this time, the Hun envoy did not know his fate.

He was extremely arrogant and shouted and scolded under the Great Wall City: "Lou annoys cheap slaves! Usun rebels! Han Dynasty people! Listen to it all! The Great Hun Right Valley Liwang has an order, if you immediately open the city and surrender, you will not be guilty of the past! If you stubbornly resist to the end, when my Great Hun Iron Horse breaks through the side plug, then the chickens and dogs will not be left, and all of them will be killed!! ”

He screamed even more, pointing to those Lou Fu slaves who were walking towards a barrier on the Great Wall and said, "Lou Fu slaves, have you seen those people? They are your kindred slaves! Because of you damned slaves, they can only die now! If you still remember half of the love of the same race, you will immediately lay down your arms and welcome my Great Hun into the customs! ”

The defenders on the city wall watched in silence where he was and cursed.

In the hearts of many people, it is like a shock.

"Despicable Huns!" Many of the officers cursed in their hearts, and then watched as their former fellow clansmen went to their deaths.

From their point of view, those ragged people of the same clan, although they could not see their appearance clearly, could generally see an outline.

These people stumbled towards the Great Wall, numb as zombies.

The rain of arrows on the Great Wall flew like raindrops.

Shoot man after man to the ground.

In just a few moments, most of these hundreds of people fell.

But the rest, far from being intimidated, rushed up like crazy and rushed to the pass of the Great Wall.

Zhao Meng was in an arrow tower and witnessed this moment with his own eyes.

He could even see the faces of the men who climbed up the hill.

He could even recognize a few of them.

Those people used to herd with him, play with him, hunt with him, and talk about women together......

But now, they are dying.

"Why?" Zhao Meng thought in his heart: "Why do they want to give their lives to the Huns? ”

The answer was soon revealed.

When almost all of these people died on the mountainside, a group of Hun cavalry, driving thousands of old and young, came to the bottom of the mountainside, and then made them all kneel.

One executioner after another raised the butcher's knife in his hand and slashed one after another desperate and numb old men, men, women, and children.

The skull rolled on the ground, blood staining the turf red.

A Xiongnu nobleman, standing under the mountainside, loudly declared: "Humble Lou Fu slave, shameful Wusun rebellion, you listen well!" These people were put to death because their loved ones were not attacking well! ”

"The great Great Hun Right Valley Liwang has an order: If you continue to resist stubbornly, then, when my Great Huns attack the Great Wall, I will definitely kill you all!"

Zhao Meng looked at it, his eyes were red, and his fists were clenched tightly.

"Brute!" Zhao Meng scolded, he looked at the poor people, those fellow clansmen who died tragically under the Xiongnu butcher's knife, Zhao Meng swore in his heart: "I will definitely take revenge on you!" ”

At the same time, he was extremely grateful to the great Han Tianzi in his heart.

He knew that if it weren't for the Son of Han Tianzi, he would probably be one of those poor people under this mountain!

Even before that, he was starving to death.

It is precisely because he knows happiness and self-esteem that Zhao Meng is so grateful to the Han Tianzi who brought him all this!
