In the thirty-seventh year of the first emperor, the Great Qin Empire, which had only been established for thirteen years, had already exuded a twilight aura, and the domestic contradictions had reached the point of irreconcilability. The peasants were forced to leave their land, and groups of them were shackled and driven to Lishan to serve their labor; The soldiers, dressed in thin winter coats and trembling with their halberds clenched in their hands, were stationed at the border gates, and in their letters home, they already knew that their parents in their distant homeland were suffering from hunger; In the streets and alleys of the city, people whispered, and when officials and soldiers passed by, they were met with hateful gaze.

The newly appointed Second Emperor did not realize that his empire was in ruins, and what Zhao Gao told him was that Great Qin was rising to peace, and the people were afraid of the majesty of the new emperor and did not dare to make any changes. So he was even more rejoicing, and intensified the implementation of all kinds of harsh policies left by his father. Zhao Gao wholeheartedly purged dissidents in Xianyang, and installed cronies into various key departments one after another, firmly holding the power in his hands.

And in November of this year, the empire, which was already in decline, ushered in its last rays of afterglow, and the Great Qin Army, which had swept through the six countries, once again burst out with its amazing combat power in Mobei.

In Mobei, the 8,000 Qin army divisions that lacked supplies and were not in good armor created a miracle, almost annihilating three times the elite of the Huns on the banks of the Santan River, and killing Shan Yu's younger brother Liwang Du Lici, as well as more than a dozen Xiongnu Xiangguo, Danghu, and Xiaowang. The Qin army's iron cavalry took advantage of the situation to attack the Huns' royal city of Mancheng, and a large army approached the city.

On the city wall of Touman City, Subu Juciyun looked at the Qin army not far from the city wall with a pale face, and the cold sweat on his forehead slowly dripped down.

He now faintly believed in the news that Touman's entire army was wiped out in Monan, otherwise how could the Qin people be so arrogant and actually gallop in front of the Holy Land of the Hun King's City.

The envoy who went south still did not reply, but although he was angry, he was a useless straw bale, and he actually lost so badly, except for the rout who fled back less than 2,000 soldiers, all the others were completely annihilated by the Qin army.

Shame is definitely the greatest shame of the Huns in a hundred years. Su Bu Juci saw that the Qin army outside the city was only seven or eight thousand in size, and they all ploughed Hu Ci's straw bale with three times the fine horsemen in their hands, and they were actually killed and destroyed.

Outside the city, the Qin army, who was showing off their might, seemed to have noticed that there were people peeping on the city wall, and a team of more than ten cavalry rushed towards the city wall, shooting with a bow at the foot of an arrow. Although the arrow hit the city wall, it had already fallen with all its strength, but it was also so frightened that Subu Jujiyun was covered in a cold sweat and sat on the ground in panic.

The Qin army under the city laughed out loud when they saw the embarrassment of Subu Ju Ciyun, and when they saw that the Huns had already opened their bows and shot back, they didn't dare to stay for a long time, so they turned their horses back.

Subu Juciyun's face turned blue and white for a while, and his chest was full of anger, but he didn't dare to give the order to go out of the city to pursue. Although he had 5,000 men and horses left to him by Du Li Huci, plus 2,000 soldiers who fled back one after another, and more than 13,000 people temporarily recruited from the tribes in the city, the troops in his hands were also more than 20,000, far superior to the Qin army outside the city. But what is the quality of these troops, Xu Bu Ju Ciyun knows it.

Most of the 5,000 soldiers left by Duli Huci were old and weak, and the defeated soldiers who fled back were discouraged, and as for the more than 10,000 temporarily recruited nobles, subordinates and slaves, they were even more vulnerable. It may be okay to expect them to help on the city wall, but if they are allowed to go out of the city to fight, they are afraid that as soon as the iron cavalry of the Qin army rushes in, they will scatter as birds and beasts.

Make up your mind now that you will never fight, but just defend the city with all your might.

Although Touman City is the royal city of the Huns, the city wall is only more than one and a half zhang high, not to mention compared with Xianyang, even compared with the county rule on the border of Qin, it also looks much lower, but it is still an insurmountable barrier for the cavalry of the nomadic tribe.

What made Su Bu Ju Ciyun's heart relieved was that although the Qin army was menacing, it was only a light cavalry and did not carry any siege weapons, which made him feel more confident. Just looking at the busy Qin army outside the city, I felt strange, it has always been the cavalry of the Huns who attacked the cities of the Qin people, and this time it was the first time that the Qin people came to attack the cities of the Huns.

The Qin army was not in a hurry to attack, and on the first day of the city, they were just busy setting up camps, and it seemed that they were planning to besiege the city for a long time. This made the hearts of the people in Touman City fluctuate, and the nobles speculated whether Shan Yu's main force was really defeated in Monan, otherwise why were the Qin people so calm, and they were not afraid of the Hun army returning to the division.

In the early morning of the second day, it was just dawn, and Subu Juciyun was woken up by his own entourage, and when he went up to the city tower to see, he was immediately frightened. The shouts in the camp of the Qin army shook the sky, and a behemoth slowly pushed out of the barracks, but it was the siege car that the Qin army rushed to make overnight. Dozens of Qin soldiers were naked, panting and pushing the cart slowly towards the east gate of Manchester City.

When he was young, he had fought many battles with the army of the Central Plains, so he naturally knew the usefulness of this rush, and hurriedly ordered all the troops to enter the city, suppress the Qin army with bows and arrows, and ordered the soldiers and civilians in the city to hold shoulders against sandbags, stones and other heavy objects to block the city gate.

At this time, the Qin army camp had already moved, and a group of flying horses drove out, riding around the city wall, and suppressing the city head with bows and arrows. Although the Huns on the city wall occupy the terrain condescendingly, most of them are old and weak, and they naturally cannot be compared with the elite of the northern army.

Suddenly, he was shot by a rain of arrows, and he was so frightened that he shrunk his head and hid under the chopping wall.

The bulky cart slowly pushed to the east gate, and dozens of sturdy men shouted neat slogans, pushing the cart to hit the city gate with the huge logs on it, making a huge noise.

The face of Subu Juciyun on the tower of the city was pale, and every loud bang against the city gate hit his heart, although he knew that the gate of Touman City was impregnable, but he was still terrified.

He is old, he is no longer brave, he has concern, he has affection, countless jewels, flocks, women, and many children and grandchildren, once the city breaks through and the Qin army invades, it will definitely be a massacre.

Fortunately, what he was worried about did not happen, Qin Jun's collision car was only temporarily built, and it was not very strong, and after hitting the door for a long time, he couldn't bear it and collapsed, injuring several soldiers around him.

Seeing that this trick had no effect, the Qin army gave up attacking the city gate and began to forcibly attack the city, and the flying cavalry under the city suppressed the defenders on the city wall with bows and arrows, and nearly a thousand foot soldiers carried a dozen simple ladders to the city corner and began to climb up. The first few warriors jumped on the tower, slashed wildly with big swords, and the group of rabble of the Huns were killed and scattered, each fleeing for his life.

Seeing that the situation was critical, Su Bu Juciyun couldn't care about his own safety, so he personally rushed up with his personal guards and killed the Qin warriors who jumped on the city tower. When the Xiongnu soldiers saw that the commander had come in person, their morale increased greatly, and they rushed up with a large number of people, and actually forced the Qin army back.

Arrows are like flying locusts, flesh and blood are flying, and the two sides are fighting for each other on the head of the city. Although the Qin army was brave, the Huns poured in like a tide of people, and the follow-up Qin army could only be reinforced by a few ladders and a few people.

This battle from early morning to near dusk, Han Xin saw that he could not attack for a long time, the Huns on the head of the city had already gained a firm foothold, and it was difficult for the Qin army to win if they persisted, and it was possible that the whole army might be wiped out at night, so they had no choice but to withdraw the troops from Mingjin, and the Qin soldiers at the head of the city jumped off the city wall one after another, and the Huns were also exhausted and had no strength to chase.

The first day of the battle ended with more than 500 corpses left by the Qin army, and the Huns suffered even heavier losses, with more than 4,000 dead and wounded.

Subu Juciyun dragged his tired body to inspect the city defense, and then returned home. Before he entered the door, he saw his son Sublin looking out of the door with an anxious face, and when he saw him returning, he hurried up to meet him.

Subu Juci Yun shouted; "What do you do in a panic."

Sublin said angrily; "Father, something is wrong."

The more Su Blings was the guard of the North Gate, seeing him so flustered, Su Bu Ju Ciyun let out a 'chuckle' in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

"The nobles of the city have fled through the north gate, and I can't stop them."

During the day, the Qin army only stormed the three gates, but ignored the north gate. The Xiongnu nobles in the city saw that the Qin army was so brave and worried that the fall of the city would only be a matter of time before they could, so they had the idea of going. Seeing that the Qin army at the north gate was not intercepted by the garrison, some brave people took advantage of the night to flee with their family members and slaves, but saw that the Qin army actually ignored it and did not patrol the north.

A large number of nobles in the city were so upset that they took their tribes and slaves, loaded their possessions into wagons, and fled north through the north gate. The more people of Sublin spoke lightly, where could they stop these nobles, so they had to rush home to help their father.

Xu Bu Juciyun's eyes widened, and he was stunned for a long time before he sighed, thinking that this general of the Qin army was so powerful, and it took only one day to disintegrate the fighting spirit of the Xiongnu nobles in the city.

This is exactly Han Xin's strategy, although the main force of Toumancheng is lost, there are still seventy or eighty thousand Huns, if the whole people are fighting to the death, the Qin army will not be able to succeed in any way. When it is better to besiege the city, the net is opened, so that the Huns have one more way to live, and they will think of escaping instead of resisting to the death.

Once people have power and power, they will have more worries, and they will cherish their lives and glory and wealth even more, and they will not think about working hard. Therefore, on the first day of the siege of the city, Han Xin carefully selected the soldiers with high martial arts skills in the army to form a death squad, regardless of the casualties, and stormed the head of Manchester City, just to make the Hun nobles in the city afraid and want to escape to save their lives.

Even if Su Bu Jujiyun saw this, he was helpless. The people living in this Manchester city are all the noble relatives of the Huns, most of them are from the Shan Yu family, and they are all related to the head man.

After pondering for a while, Subu Juciyun commanded; "Lin Yue, you also go to the house, clean up the soft gold and silver, and let the family get ready. Also, take my warrant and go to the camp to mobilize the wagons and enough horses. ”
