Chapter 4: The Annihilation of the Army
Lianzhu Arrow is a family heirloom stunt of the Helian tribe, and Helian Longshan once used this stunt to injure Huang Xian. In order to make the sneak attack foolproof, Helian Takashi smeared the arrows with poison. Huang Xian saw that his second brother was hit by an arrow, so he didn't care about the sneak attack, so he hurried to check the injury.
Huang Yuan's face was pale, his lips were blue, and with his rapid breathing, streams of blood choked out of his mouth.
Huang Xian was shocked, knowing that the arrow was poisonous, and hurriedly tore open the shirt on his chest, only to see that the black and purple around the wound was already swollen.
Huang Xian knew that he had to suck out the poisonous blood in his body as soon as possible, otherwise the second brother's life would not be guaranteed, and he was about to pull out the arrow for the second brother, but Huang Yuan shook his head to stop him.
Huang Yuan knew that his life was not guaranteed, the arrows penetrated deep into his body, already hurting his heart, and a chill slowly spread throughout his body, as if he was in an ice cellar. When life and death are parting, the most difficult thing for people to give up is their relatives. Realizing that he was about to die, Huang Yuan thought about his family, Ruolan, father, mother, sister, eldest brother, and sister-in-law appeared in front of him one after another, but the image was gradually blurred, difficult to see, in a faint voice, suddenly saw a group of Hu soldiers holding scimitars to kill them, Huang Yuan was anxious, stood up and shouted: Big brother, kill the thief quickly, .......
Huang Xian saw that the second brother suddenly stood up, and exclaimed, "Second brother!" hurriedly hugged him, only to see Huang Yuanyuan's eyes open, his fingers in front of him, and there was no snort.
Huang Xian gently closed his eyes for the second brother and hugged him tightly to his chest. Huang Yuan is tall and thin, with sparse eyebrows and bright eyes, and looks very much like his father. Huang Xian looked at Huang Yuan carefully, falling into great grief, he looked at his younger brother, who was very familiar, and suddenly had an illusion: death, impossible! Thinking about it, thinking about it, I couldn't help but shout loudly: Second brother, second brother. His hands kept shaking Huang Yuan's body. There were several sounds, and the voice was bleak and sharp.
Seeing this, all Zhuang Ding wept sadly, and some people missed the brothers who died defending the city, and couldn't help crying bitterly, and the whole Huangjiabao fell into grief.
An elderly Zhuang Ding stepped forward, gave Huang Xian two slaps in the face, and shouted: "The eldest son, the second prince is dead, you have to cheer up, the thief is under the city, and he will be killed." ”
Huang Xian shivered, suddenly sobered up, sat on the ground, remembered that in the past, the second brother and himself played together, practiced martial arts together, studied together, he was anxious, and occasionally had disputes, but the second brother often let himself, but now, in the blink of an eye, it was yin and yang, and he couldn't help but cry like rain. After thinking about it, if he didn't believe in Hu Ren's peace, or if he personally talked to Helian Longqiang, the second brother would not die, and he blamed himself guiltily for a while.
At this moment, shouts of killing came from under the city, and the Hu people attacked again. Huang Xian put Huang Yuan down and stood up on the ground, the endless sadness in his heart turned into vengeful anger, and he loudly ordered everyone to meet the enemy.
Huang Xian gritted his teeth, tore off two strong bows in a row, and shot dozens of people in a row. The Zhuang Ding is also brave to kill the enemy. The Hu people threw down hundreds of corpses and retreated in defeat.
Huang Xian took the opportunity to transport the body of the second brother back, buried it under the thorn tree outside his study, and burned incense and secretly wished: Second brother, you can go with confidence, the eldest brother can't let you die in vain, I will definitely ask Brother Helian to bury you with you.
Huang Xian ordered people to search for flammable materials such as grease, candles, and soju in various houses, and placed them at the gates of the city and in the streets and alleys, in open places, covered with dry firewood, and asked people to hide more sulfur flames and nitrate on each house, and made hundreds of rockets for later use.
Huang Xian plans to lure the enemy into the castle and burn them to death. Seeing that the sky was about to fall, Huang Xian left behind three hundred strong warriors and ordered the rest of the Zhuang Ding to evacuate from the secret passage and wait in the woods on the bank of the West River. He strictly ordered Zhuang Ding to go out of the city to attack, harass the enemy, only allowed defeat and not victory, confused the enemy, lured the enemy to pursue, pretended that the city gate was lost, ordered him to attack the castle, and then launched a fire attack.
Everything was arranged, Huang Xian asked people to open the city gate, take the lead, take the lead on the prancing horse, and kill the enemy camp.
However, it was said that the Helian Longqiang brothers had been attacking the city for days, and they were depressed, and they were drinking in the tent, listening to each other's shouts of killing outside the tent, and the soldiers came to report: "Huangjiabao robbed the camp!" hurriedly put on their horses and rushed outside to meet the enemy.
When Huang Xian saw Helian Longqiang's brothers killed, he secretly applauded in his heart, and ordered his subordinates to retreat while fighting and acting according to the plan.
Huang Xian let the enemy chase to the city gate, but did not let it easily attack the city, trying his best to create an illusion that Huangjiabao was unwilling to lose the city gate and wanted to resist to the death. The two sides fought under the city gate, which was narrow, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the enemy could not attack for a while.
Helian Longqiang was overjoyed when he saw this, thinking that Huangjiabao, which had not been able to be attacked for many days, was about to be reached, so he hurriedly ordered people to blow the rallying horn, transfer the troops besieging all places, and storm the south gate. After persisting for half an hour, Huang Xian felt that the fire was almost over, and people set fire at the city gate. The fire was raging, and the enemy troops could not get close for a while.
Huang Xian took the opportunity to lead the crowd back to the garden and evacuated through the secret passage. When entering the secret passage, he was afraid that Helian Longqiang would discover the secret passage, and organized Zhuang Ding to open the cave and seal it tightly.
Huang Xian divided it into four teams, personally led a team of men and horses to rob the camp and cut off its response, while the remaining three teams controlled the city gates, waiting for the opportunity to set fire, seal the exit, and burn the Hu soldiers.
How could the fire of the city gate stop thousands of elite soldiers, and after a while, hundreds of Hu soldiers had already rushed into Huangjiabao.
Helian Long was overjoyed, and without the slightest suspicion, he urged the military horses to enter the castle. As he was advancing, a sergeant flew a report: "There is no trace of the enemy." ”
Helian Longqiang was suspicious, and patted his horse to the front of the team to check: the roofs of Huangjiabao were mostly demolished, the firewood was piled up on the street corners, and the underground bricks and stones were scattered, making it a messy scene.
Helian Long rode several streets and alleys, but they were all empty, and he secretly screamed badly. Someone else reported: There was a strong smell of alcohol on the street. Thinking of the firewood pile on the corner of the street, the strong smell of wine, Helian Longqiang gasped, if Huang Xian attacked with fire, our army would definitely die here and retreat in a hurry.
Before Helian Longqiang's words fell, he saw countless rockets shot from outside the city, as dense as flying locusts, shooting on the rooftops and alleys, raising raging flames, and then a strong smell of nitrate spread in the streets and alleys.
Helian Long Qiang complained again and again, and led the army to retreat in a hurry. The soldiers were in a mess, trampling on each other, and countless people died.
At this time, Huang Xian had already taken control of the city gate and set fire on the spot. The sergeant left behind in Helian's camp saw the fire and was about to come to respond, but was stopped by Huang Xian, and he rushed to kill and died. In the middle of the night, the wind was raging, the fire borrowed the wind, the wind helped the fire, and in an instant, Huangjiabao burned into a sea of fire.
Thousands of soldiers of the Helian tribe struggled for their lives in the sea of fire, and the screams were heard for more than ten miles along the wind.
Huang Xian made people patrol the city on horseback, and when they encountered those who jumped off the city to escape, they were shot to death by arrows. Poor Helian brothers, bent on avenging the third brother, but carelessly, thousands of soldiers did not escape.
