Meng Tian's face was much soothed, his eyes regained their brightness, and he was about to narrate to the lieutenants that when Meng Yi annihilated the elite iron cavalry of the Huns in Jiuyuan, he overheard an urgent report from the scouts outside the tent, "Touman led the army to the city!"

When the generals heard this, the Hun army only besieged but did not attack, and they had been holding each other for half a month, why couldn't they wait today, and wanted to attack, and looked at Meng Tian together.

Meng Tian's face froze, and he immediately felt that it was not good, took the helmet, and led the generals out of the military tent, and walked quickly to the city wall to look.

I saw that the Xiongnu army came from outside the pass, the dust rolled, swallowed the mountains and rivers, the infantry slowly spread out in front of the gate, thousands of catapults, oil trucks, crash cars, ladders and other siege equipment were rumbled to the front of the formation, more than 100,000 iron cavalry in the rear of the infantry, gradually lined up in formation, waiting for military orders.

Tou Man is dressed in animal clothes, wearing feathers, sitting on a horse, long hair flying, majestic, domineering, one person on the left, thin hunchback, wearing a black wizard robe, the hat is pressed very low, can't see the face clearly, obviously a wizard, unpredictable, a general beside him, a tiger with a bear waist, bulging eyes and fierce eyes, riding a black leopard, carrying a pair of meteor hammers in his hands, this person is the fourth fierce general of the Huns, the leopard general Qiyan Batu,

A general on the right side of the head man, wearing battle armor, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, vigorous posture, holding a black spear, riding a white horse, a giant eagle behind him, one zhang high, standing on the back of another horse, especially visible, this person is the first fierce general of the Huns, Eagle General Ugude, a person on his right, a beard, more than half a hundred years old, full of white hair, wearing a white robe, should be a person from China.

When the soldiers on the city wall saw this, they were shocked, this kind of formation was something they had never seen for many years of fighting, and their hearts were full of fear, and they didn't know if they could hold this Yanmen Pass.

Meng Tian frowned tightly, wondering in his heart, the Xiongnu 100,000 elite soldiers invaded Shangjun, intending to lead him to exterminate, the Xiongnu took the opportunity to break the city, and now collude with Donghu and Xianbei to invade Liaoxi, and its purpose is the same, this is obviously their plan, why not wait for him to leave with his troops, and come to attack, this is not clear to hit the tip of the knife?

Even though Meng Tian has resisted the Xiongnu for many years, he can't figure it out at the moment, although he is not afraid of the 300,000 Xiongnu army, but he faintly feels like he has ignored something, and his thoughts are disturbed.

At this time, the 300,000 army had all been displayed under the eyes of the Qin army, and the Qin soldiers on the city wall were also ready to attack.

The black-clothed wizard didn't know what to mutter, and after hearing this, Touman looked at Meng Tian on the city wall with contempt, raised his hand, and shouted, "Fa!"

At the sound of the order, the rapid sound of drums sounded, 'Huh, Huh, ......Huh, Hu

Meng Tian also immediately ordered to attack, the city wall has already set up thousands of throwing equipment, prepared enough rolling wood and stones, waiting for the Huns to attack, after getting the order, have thrown out boulders, oil barrels, smashed to the city army, due to the high terrain, the Qin army threw boulders, oil barrels have a long range, powerful, the Hun soldiers were also stoned to death a lot, the city gate is full of fire.

At this moment, I saw the black-clothed wizard take out a one-foot-long curved beast horn from his sleeve, the horn was dark green like jade, and under the daylight, the luster could still be seen, the wizard turned his back to the city wall, looked up to the sky and blew the horn, the sound of the horn was like a dragon's roar, the roar was terrifying, and it seemed to have a powerful magic power.

After a while, I saw a black cloud flying from the sky, which quickly grew larger, covering half of the sky, and the babbling and strange screams gradually became clear, and the Qin soldiers in the city suddenly raised their heads and shouted: "It's birds and beasts!"

Qin Bing was shocked, no one had ever seen so many huge birds and beasts, tens of thousands of birds and beasts flew in layers, and the black pressure was hovering all over the sky, like dark clouds, and black clouds rolling.

The sound of the horn suddenly became sharp and piercing, and thousands of birds and beasts heard it, screaming and roaring, like a sky collapsing and a starfall, swooping down and rushing towards the Qin army in the city.

Meng Tian was shocked and shouted, "Release the arrow!"

Dense rain like arrows shot straight into the sky, birds and beasts were immediately shot to death hundreds, broken feathers flew one after another, but this casualty for the birds and beasts pouring down, not worth mentioning, in an instant, the birds and beasts in the sky roared, pounced on the Qin soldiers, Qin soldiers did not set up the arrows, they were killed by sharp claws, sharp pecks, screaming, and even more, were caught in the sky, the surrounding birds and beasts competed to tear and peck, and the intestines were opened, and the blood gushed out, and before they fell, they were already divided.

After thousands of birds and beasts flew into the sky, thousands more birds and beasts swooped down, and thousands of birds and beasts formed a huge whirlpool above the city wall, surging and rolling, sweeping the heavens and the earth.

The Qin soldiers dodged the flying boulders and fire oil on the one hand, and picked up weapons to fight the birds and beasts that swooped down, the sky above the city wall, the blood rained, bird feathers, arrows were all over the sky, some of the catapults were hit and pulled by the birds and beasts, staggered, and were torn apart, and the attack on the Xiongnu under the city had been stopped, and the scene was out of control.

Meng Tian has been fighting for many years, and he has never been so dazed as he is today, and he never thought that the Xiongnu would attract so many birds and beasts to break the city, looking at the hundreds of thousands of troops under the city, it is no longer the Xiongnu he knew in the past, and sighed: "If Yanmen Pass is lost, what face do I have to see Your Majesty!"

Just when thousands of birds and beasts were flying wildly, shouting and killing, strange screams, horns, and crashing sounds, they heard another piercing bell, which made people dizzy, delirious, looking for prestige, and I don't know when a golden-winged giant eagle appeared in the sky, the giant eagle was in the shape of a human, and the sound was from the golden bell in his hand.

When the birds and beasts heard the bell, they roared and screamed, and scattered in all directions, and some birds and beasts stiffened their wings and fell one after another, and the rolling dark clouds were dispersed in an instant, and they saw the light of day again.

This sudden change made the Qin army excited, and the golden-winged giant eagle was like a god, saving them, and the chaos disappeared immediately, reorganized, and fought back against the Xiongnu.

When the black-clothed wizard saw that the birds and beasts were dispersed, he no longer sounded the horns of the beasts, and a cold light radiated from his hat, and he looked at the giant eagle and said hoarsely: "Horror Bell!"

Touman turned his head to look at the wizard and asked, "Ancestor, what happened?"

The golden bell disturbed the sound of the dragon's horn, and the birds and beasts were frightened and lost control. The wizard said, putting away the dragon's horns.

Touman didn't expect the good situation to be collapsed in an instant, looked at the golden-winged giant eagle hovering in the sky, and said viciously: "Ugude, you go and shoot that eagle to death!"

The wizard stopped: "Wait, that golden eagle has been cultivated into a human form, the demon power is not weak, and there is a frightening bell in his hand, it is impossible for the eagle general to shoot him to death, and now I don't know his origin, it's better not to be angry." ”

Touman held back his anger and said, "That's it!"

The white-robed old man beside him spoke: "Great Khan, the thunder stone and fire oil are almost exhausted, this is the end of today, we will fight again tomorrow." ”

Touman seemed to be unwilling, and said in a deep voice: "Then according to the prime minister's wishes, Mingjin will collect his troops and retreat from the city!"

The drums stopped, the Hun army slowly retreated a mile, away from the attack range of the city, camped, the golden eagle hovering in the air saw the Huns retreating, and flew away.

Meng Tian saw the Xiongnu withdrawing troops, only to breathe a sigh of relief, looking at the devastated city walls and casualties of the soldiers, worried, since the Xiongnu want to break the city, why just throw boulders, fire oil bombardment, and do not send troops to break through the city gate, is it just a bluff to restrain me from staying here, or do you want to test first, and take advantage of my unpreparedness to carry out a surprise attack?

At this moment, I heard a herald report: "There is a Taoist priest who claims to be unobstructed and asks to see the general." ”

After hearing this, Meng Tian hurriedly said, "Where is he? Bring him to me!"

After a while, I saw Wujian under the guidance of the soldiers, climbing the city wall, and Wujian saw Meng Tian busy prostrating on the ground and worshipping, "The grass people are unobstructed to meet the general, this is the elder brother Yu Pei and please ask the general to look at it." ”

Seeing that there was no obstacle and what Meng Yi said, Meng Tian hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, and said: "Meng Yi has sent a letter to me, everything has been known, the Taoist is proficient in the magic circle and has great intelligence, Meng Yi can make friends with the Taoist as a brother, it is really a blessing for three lives, and it is a blessing for Great Qin." ”

"The general is serious, it's just a fluke in the next, if it weren't for the brother's trust, how dare he come here with a cheeky face. ”

"It's a good time, if the Taoist can solve the current dilemma, the old man is grateful!" immediately described the current situation to Wuji.

After hearing this, Wuji thought for a while, looked at the Hun army under the city, and asked, "What is the general's plan next?"

Meng Tian sighed: "The old man doesn't know what to do now, if he evacuates Yanmen Pass, then Yanmen Pass will be lost, the 300,000 Xiongnu army will be unstoppable, and the northern counties will fall, but if you defend Yanmen, Donghu and Xianbei will invade the northeast counties, and the upper county will invade, the old man has been derelict in his duties, thanks to His Majesty's love, there is no crime, this time His Majesty has issued an urgent order, ordering the old man to quickly lead the troops to resist the barbarians, but the Huns have come to the city, how can they go away!"

Wu Jie said: "The general should now send troops to defend against the barbarians. ”

Meng Tian asked, "Why do you say that?"

"As the general said, if the general guards Yanmen, it is disobeying the emperor's order, whether he can keep it or not, the responsibility will be the general's, but if the general sends troops to resist the barbarians and Yanmen is lost, it is His Majesty's decision, presumably the responsibility is not very great, instead of being in a dilemma, why not follow the holy will?"

Meng Tian lamented: "That's right, the old man is stubborn, and His Majesty will definitely be displeased." ”

Wujian continued: "Moreover, if the general is not appropriate and sends troops, Donghu and Xianbei will attack openly, and the general will be exposed to the enemy on his back, what is the use of guarding this Yanmen gate at that time." ”

"You mean, the purpose of Donghu and Xianbei's invasion is to go around to the rear of the old man?"

"The Yue's national soldiers in Longxi intended to involve the Xianyang defenders, so that Xianyang could not send troops to reinforce, and the defenders in various places were temporarily difficult to recruit, and now the general was opposed by the DPRK and China, and was already in the point of isolation, the Xiongnu carefully planned and carefully deployed, with only one purpose, intended to destroy the general's 200,000 army, not a few counties. ”

Meng Tian suddenly woke up, "The old man only understands now, why the Huns can only attack today, they want the old man to stay here, wait for Donghu and Xianbei 100,000 iron horsemen to surround the old man, form a siege momentum, and then launch a general attack, the Taoist is really extraordinary." ”

Wu Barrier said: "Originally, they prepared 200,000, but now there are only 100,000 left, and the general still has a chance to break their game." ”

Meng Tian said: "Is there still a chance?"

"The opportunity is now, send troops to fight against Donghu and Xianbei, although they have 100,000 cavalry, but they are their own battalions, no better than the 100,000 cavalry who invaded Shangjun, as long as the general quickly sends troops to meet them, regardless of the Huns, bite them to the death, and easily defeat them. ”

"But once this wild goose gate is breached, the door is wide open, and the situation still cannot be reversed!"

"This wild goose gate is just a city gate, if it is lost, it can be recaptured, so let them be outside the gate, it is better to let them go inside, is there only a city gate to defend against them?"

Meng Tian lifted his spirit and asked, "Does the Dao Chief have a good plan?"
