Chapter 114, the mountain and the cloud are not seen
Wuxian thought for a moment and said calmly: "This is not a good strategy in the next place, it's just a desperate bet and a dangerous step, I don't know if the general can trust it?"
Meng Tian stroked his silver beard in his hand and said with a smile: "Meng Yi has become a brother with the Taoist Chief, and we are already our own family, so how can I believe it or not." ”
"If the general can be trusted, can he temporarily hand over the military power?"
Hearing this, Meng Tian frowned slightly, his face was solemn, and he fell into a place of embarrassment, according to the law of Great Qin, the military power is appointed and dismissed by the emperor, and the army mobilization must be evidenced by the tiger charm, and the tiger charm is controlled and issued by the emperor, and the military power must not be handed over privately, otherwise it should be punished as a rebellion, although Meng Tian believes that there is no obstacle, how can such an important event dare to do it easily, thinking for a while, he asked: "Is it necessary to be so?"
Wu Barrier said: "I have learned a few magic formations in Xia, maybe I can confuse the Huns, delay time, so that the general has enough time to defeat the Donghu and Xianbei who invaded Liaoxi, if it succeeds, the situation can be reversed, but the formation requires a large number of soldiers, if the soldiers are not convinced, it is difficult to perform." ”
Meng Tian thought about it, if the Xiongnu formed a siege, the 200,000 army would be annihilated, and when the army was mobilized by the DPRK and China, all the northern counties had been occupied, and it would be difficult to recover it.
Wu Jie said: "That's not necessary, I only need the two close and trusted lieutenants under the general to obey my orders, and the soldiers are still led by them, so that the general doesn't need to worry about those crimes." ”
After hearing this, Meng Tian smiled and said: "The deputy general under the old man's account has been fighting with me for many years, and the Taoist can rest assured that this old man will be able to do it." ”
"How many cavalry does the general think can defeat Donghu and Xianbei?"
Meng Tian pondered: "Eighty thousand is enough!"
"The general will lead 100,000 cavalry to meet Donghu and Xianbei, and how about handing over the remaining 100,000?"
Meng Tian said: "Eighty thousand is just a safe number for the old man, a large number of military horses are needed to resist the Huns, how can one hundred thousand be left for the Dao Chief, I will bring 60,000, and the rest will be led by the Dao Chief!"
Wu Barrier said: "The general brought 100,000 to hope that the general would fight quickly, turn around, and provide support, so that my side does not need to engage in a head-to-head battle with them, and the less than 20,000 will not affect the battle situation." ”
"Okay, it's according to the Dao Chief's arrangement!"
After the two discussed specific matters on the city wall, Meng Tian led Wuxian back to the military tent, summoned the generals of the army to the account to discuss the matter, and after some introduction, issued a few military orders, leaving the cautious and steady General Fan and the brave and mighty General Xu to guard Yanmen, and privately instructed the two of them to be sure to obey the command of Wuxian and not to act without authorization.
Meng Tian ordered 100,000 cavalry and hurried to Liaoxi at night to meet the invading Donghu and Xianbei.
......
The sun rose in the east, the morning fog was shrouded, the Xiongnu discovered that Meng Tian had rushed to Liaoxi, leaving only 20,000 soldiers to guard Yanmen, and quickly assembled and came to the city, wanting to launch a general attack on Yanmen.
Standing at the head of the city without obstacles, gazing at the ups and downs of the mountains outside the pass, looking for the great shore that has passed, and the tenderness beside him, he lamented in his heart, "It's been more than ten years!"
General Fan walked up to the city wall and came to the back of Wuxian to report: "Everything ordered by the Taoist chief has been completed!"
Wuji said in a deep voice: "General Lao has ordered, open the city gate!"
After hearing this, General Fan was stunned for a long time, as if he was worried, and asked, "Dao Chief, is it a bit risky to do this?"
"The general doesn't have to worry, I have my own measure, just do it!"
General Fan no longer hesitated, and ordered: "Open the city gate!"
The gates of the city......, which had been closed for more than ten days, were slowly opened.
Tou Man saw that there were only a few people on the city wall, and was about to give the order to attack the city, but he never thought that the Qin army would take the initiative to open the city gate.
The sound of the piano is melodious and tactful, it is sad, evoking lovesickness, the Huns' momentum gradually fades, Touman suddenly glared at the white-clothed Taoist priest playing the piano in the city, this scene, how similar to the scene more than ten years ago, that is the biggest shame in his life, how can he forget, I didn't expect this stinky Taoist priest to come to insult him, and shouted angrily: "Beggar Batu, lead the troops to rush in for me, no one is left!"
The prime minister beside him persuaded: "Great Khan, be careful of deception, we still follow the established plan and attack the city first." ”
"There is a bird fraud, not to mention this stinky Taoist, even if Meng Tian is here, Ben Khan is not afraid, besides, this city gate has been opened, we are still attacking the city, the prime minister is too worried!"
Qiu Linshan was also beside Touman, and persuaded: "Great Khan, this Taoist priest should not be underestimated, Su Ketuo and General Huyan Lieri died in his tricks, and he alone is better than 100,000 cavalry. ”
Touman angrily reprimanded: "The general of the defeated army, how can he speak bravely, Ben Khan does not believe in evil, what magical power can he have, he can block my 300,000 army with 20,000 troops, beg Yan Batu to go quickly!"
Qiu Linshan hurriedly shrank down, eager to burrow his head into the ground, but Bi Cheng knew that he couldn't dissuade him, so he didn't say anything more, staring at the calm figure in the city.
"Get the order!" Qiyan Batu came to the front of the formation with a black body, carrying a meteor hammer, majestic, and shouted: "The leopard master listens to the order, rushes into Yanmen Pass with me, and slaughters the Qin soldiers!"
As soon as this order was given, the people shouted and the horses roared, and 20,000 cavalry followed the beggar Yan Batu and rumbled towards the wide city gate, and the dust flew and the fish poured in.
20,000 cavalry rushed into the pass, shouting to kill for a long time, but did not see the Qin army left behind, Qiyan Batu paused the black leopard, raised his big hand, and shouted: "Stop!" The killing stopped, and the soldiers tightened their reins and looked around.
The melodious sound of the piano continued, and when I looked back, I saw that there were no more than a thousand soldiers on the city wall, but they were so frightened that they couldn't help but tremble.
Qiyan Batu smiled, and ordered the soldiers to send out arrows, informing that there was nothing in the city, as soon as the arrows were issued, they heard the sound of the city gate 'boom', and fell to the ground heavily, and the roaring sound seemed to sound in their hearts, which made the Hun soldiers tremble.
"Hehe, hey, poor Dao, I'm going to cremate you!" a blue-faced Taoist priest sat on the city wall at some point, crossed Erlang's legs, and laughed playfully.
Qiyan Batu despised and said: "Shoot down that stinky Taoist priest who speaks wildly!" The cavalry was about to bend his bow and arrow after hearing the order, when the sound of 'boom' came from three sides, and he saw the war horse rushing towards with thousands of chariots full of oil, dry firewood, and weeds, burning with raging flames.
Thinking of this, he picked up the meteor hammer and shouted, "Rush with me!" Riding a black leopard, he rushed to the frontal chariot.
The Hun cavalry wanted to follow the Qiyan Batu rush, but the horse that sat down was afraid of the flames, no matter how they drove, they refused to take a step forward, the flame car crashed in a blink of an eye, and the people turned over on their backs, screaming miserably, and the rapid flames were about to surround the Hun cavalry, and they could only retreat under the city.
At this moment, several iron chains broke out of the ground, encircled the cavalry under the city, the Qin soldiers on the city suddenly laughed, and suddenly stood up more than 20,000 people, 'Huh, Huh, Huh, ......' flew down the dense barrels of fire and oil, all fell into the Hun cavalry ranks, the flames exploded, the city was a sea of fire, scorched smoke soared to the sky, people and horses with flames all over their bodies, howling miserably, rampage, rolling around, and turning into scorched bones in an instant.
Although Qiyan Batu rushed out, but his cavalry did not rush out, looking at the 20,000 cavalry who died in the flames, his heart was like a knife, and he howled angrily, this result, he could not change.
"Hehe, I'll send you in too!" Jin Xingzi suddenly appeared behind Qiyan Batu, his green face suddenly bulged, and with a 'poof' sound, he spewed out a huge fireball and pounced on Qiyan Batu.
Qiyan Batu was furious, saw Jin Xingzi appear, picked up the meteor hammer, smashed it, and was defenseless against the fireball that came to his face, and before the iron ball hit Jin Xingzi, he was hit by the fireball, and the flames ignited all over his body, rolling to the ground, extremely hot, and hurriedly rolled on the spot, wanting to extinguish the flames.
Jin Xingzi flew and jumped, dodged the meteor hammer, saw the black-bodied leopard roaring and pounced, freed one foot, and shouted: "Dare to come and bite the poor road!" 'Bang', the black-bodied leopard was kicked away by him and fell into the sea of fire, Jin Xingzi rubbed his feet, turned his head to look at Qiyan Batu who was rolling on the ground, the iron sword in his hand flashed, and with a 'bang', Qiyan Batu's head fell to the ground.
The sound of the piano continued, Tou Man saw that the gate fell, he knew the plan, regretted not listening to the prime minister's words, immediately ordered the siege of the city, in an instant, several boulders 'whirring' up, smashed to the Qin soldiers on the city wall, several giant crash cars rushed to the city gate, 'boom' sounded, crashed into the city gate, the city gate was knocked out of many cracks, the stone bricks above 'lala' fell, hundreds of ladders were set up side by side on the city wall, the Hun soldiers held shields, like swarms of ants, quickly climbed upward.
The Qin soldiers had set up arrows, the rain of arrows in the sky shot down to the city, the rolling wood and stones fell with a roar, and the Hun soldiers were stoned to death, shot to death, and fell to death countless, and some soldiers climbed up, but were stabbed down by the spears of the Qin soldiers.
At this moment, Jin Xingzi carried the head of Qiyan Batu, happily came to the city wall, and threw the head down with brute force in the direction of Touman.
The head crossed a parabola in the air, and landed right in front of Touman's horse, and when Touman saw it, his heart was broken, and three of the four elite cavalry had been destroyed, and his teeth were clenched, and he glared at the Wuxian who was still playing the piano on the city wall, and wanted to eat his flesh raw.
When Bi Cheng saw it, he shook his head and sighed, and when the other soldiers saw it, their blood was full of blood and they were eager to try.
......
The sound of the piano finally stopped, Wu Jian slowly got up, the corners of his eyes were moist, and said to General Fan beside him: "It's time, it's time for us to withdraw!"
General Fan knew that this gate could not be guarded, and seeing that it was about to be knocked open, and it would be too late if he didn't leave, General Fan ordered: "Withdraw the army!"
The passages next to the city gate have been sealed, and more than 20,000 Qin soldiers followed Wu Ji and General Fan, walked a long way, and then went down the city wall, and joined the 30,000 Qin soldiers who were ambushed in the city and burned the Xiongnu, and left quickly.
The Hun soldiers who climbed the city wall, seeing the Qin army leaving the city, did not rush to pursue, stood on the city wall to guard, the hinges of the city gate had been cut off, and the city gate could not be opened, but the city gate was quickly knocked down, but the raging flames that were still burning made them still unable to enter.
The Qin soldiers walked far away, only to hear the 'boom' behind them, and when they turned around, they saw that thick smoke was billowing out, stone bricks were flying down, and thousands of soldiers guarding the city gate were killed a lot.
