Chapter 116: The Siege of Cloudsdale 1
readx;
Since Mao Dun appeared on the front line of Cloud City, although Yang Wengzi did not know the details, but judging from the actions of the Huns, Yang Wengzi knew very well that there must be a big man from the Huns who arrived in this place. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Who is this Xiongnu big man, Yang Wengzi thought that there were only a few people, but what he didn't expect was that before the Huns launched an attack, they actually sent a lobbyist to the north under the city tower.
Yang Wengzi did not order the lobbyist to be shot directly, but planned to listen to what the other party had to say first.
This lobbyist was dressed like a Hun man, but from the strong Zhao Di accent that came out of the other party when he spoke, Yang Wengzi knew that this was a traitor.
As for why the other party betrayed the Qin Empire or why he appeared in the camp of the Huns and acted as a lobbyist for the Huns, Yang Wengzi was not interested in thinking about this question in detail. Because for him, the mission of this lobbyist will probably end after he says what he wants to say.
The lobbyist glanced at the Qin army's crossbowmen on the city wall, and said that it was impossible for him not to be scared at all, especially when many of these crossbowmen aimed their crossbows at him, and he almost ran away without being frightened.
It's just that as a traitor, or a traitor to Zhao, he was a traitor who surrendered directly because of the southward movement of the Huns when the Qin Empire had not yet destroyed the Zhao State, and if he wanted to live better in the Huns, he could only obey the orders of the current Huns Shan Yu.
Maybe few people will remember the small Zhao military captain who was also guarding the border back then, but he knows that if his identity is known, I am afraid that his family, who no longer knows whether he is alive or dead, will be ashamed of him.
After all, the hundreds of Zhao officers and soldiers under his command were able to die heroically in the face of Toumandan's offensive when he went south, and he, the commander, simply became a lackey of the Huns just for his own survival.
If it weren't for the fact that he was aware of the situation in the border areas of Daidi at that time, I am afraid that people like him would just be lackeys of the Huns.
So this time he wanted to better add some weight to his presence.
And persuading the Qin army defenders to surrender this city is undoubtedly the best way.
Perhaps such a traitor should know a truth, that is, the ideal will indeed be very plump, but the reality will give a person a very skinny touch......
"Listen to the Qin people on the city fortress, you have been surrounded by the great Mao Dun Shan Yu, Mao Dun Shan Yu is in mind for the sake of you all warriors, let me convey one thing, that is, as long as you open the city and surrender, Mao Dun Shan Yu will let you live and become a member of the Huns. ”
"That's it?" Yang Wengzi muttered these three words involuntarily, he didn't expect such a lobbyist's level to be so bad, but when he looked back, he suddenly thought of a very critical place, that is, from this lobbyist's words, Yang Wengzi almost didn't subconsciously ignore an important information, that is, Mao Dun would actually appear in this place.
Yang Wengzi believed that among the group of Huns in the distance, Mao Dun must have been watching the situation in this place.
If it weren't for the fact that this distance was too far, and even the Qin army's most powerful bed crossbow couldn't hit that place, I'm afraid Yang Wengzi himself wouldn't mind trying to see if he could create a miracle.
However, Yang Wengzi just thought about it like this, for him, he thought of giving a gift, as another "meeting gift" for the Huns to go south.
"Shoot the other side directly. ”
Yang Wengzi gave this order to the crossbowmen of his personal guards. After receiving this order, more than a dozen crossbowmen successively released the bowstring they were pulling or deducted the crossbow machine.
More than a dozen arrows almost all hit this lobbyist, and after the other party shook his body a few times on the mount, Yang Wengzi seemed to be able to see the other party's unbelievable thoughts in the other party's eyes.
Yang Wengzi sneered, not caring at all about this dead man who gradually lost his vitality and then fell from his mount to the ground.
For him, instead of caring about a traitor, it is better to concentrate on the offensive that the Huns are preparing to launch.
......
All Maudon could think of when he saw the figure in front of him fall to the ground.
But for him, the life of a traitor lobbyist is not worth much, and he doesn't have much affection for such a person anyway, and in a sense, he is even less likely to have any feelings about a lackey who has in fact lost his usefulness.
At this time, a Xiongnu tribal leader beside Mao Dun respectfully asked him: "Shan Yu, what should we do next?" If Shan Yu's original order is still valid, my tribal warriors will dedicate this Qin city to Shan Yu. ”
Hearing the words of the leader of the Xiongnu tribe, Mao Dun looked at the tribal leader he actually admired, because there was no trace of his ambition hidden in the other party's eyes.
Maudun does not think that it is a good thing for a person to be unambitious, and he also does not think that it is a bad thing for a person to be ambitious, for Maudun, as long as it can be used by him, what an ambitious person can do is far from being comparable to that of a person without ambition.
Such a situation is actually one of the survival rules of the Huns.
The main reason why his father Tou Mandanyu let him go after knowing that he had returned to the Xiongnu was because since Mao Dun could appear in front of him again, it would be a miracle for him and the Xiongnu.
So in such a situation, even Touman could actually feel Maudun's undisguised ambition to be on the throne, but he did not strangle Maudun in the "cradle" in the end.
If Tou Manshan Yu really wanted to kill Mao Dun, Mao Dun probably wouldn't have a chance to get his team of knights.
And Maudun also has such a feeling for some ambitious people.
He even thought that if this person's ambition was directly proportional to his ability, he would not complain too much if he was killed by the other party or even his wife and children were taken by the other party.
And the other party's ability seems to have revealed a hint yesterday. He didn't understand why he thought that this foolproof plan to disguise the Qin army's grain transport team to defraud the city gate in the clouds had failed.
Maybe it wasn't just him, nor the tribal leader who came up with such a plan, who didn't know what the situation was.
But there is no doubt that Mao Dun is very interested in the other party's way of thinking, if the other party's strategy is really successful, even if he knows that the other party is ambitious, he will not break his word, but according to the original agreement, the large grassland around Cloud City will be divided into the name of this tribe.
It's just that at the moment, the other party actually plans to attack Cloudsdale as a vanguard, and a thought suddenly appeared in Mao Dun's heart, that is: this person's ambition is not equal to his ability, and a person like this is probably not worthy of my attention.
Maudon had a kind of trust in his sudden thought, and he looked at the tribal leader's eyes with a hint of imperceptible contempt.
He didn't think that this tribal leader didn't know what was going on in this Cloud City, and the other party still chose to be the main attack force, which was undoubtedly a manifestation of Li Lingzhi's dizziness.
Especially after the failure of this tribe's strategy, in the follow-up battle, more than 2,000 casualties were paid, I am afraid that a sane person will have the courage of a strong man to break his wrist, so that other Xiongnu tribes can tentatively attack and make arrangements for the next step.
It's just that the other party didn't make such an arrangement in the end, but proposed to be the main attack force at this time, I'm afraid that the other party intends to continue to gamble.
Although Maudun's opinion of the leader of the tribe had changed, he could not afford to discourage a warrior's aggressiveness in this environment in full view, and he then said: "In that case, then your tribe will be the vanguard of this operation." ”
"Thanks to the great Shan Yu. ”
After the other party said this, he excitedly left this area with the highest concentration of Hun high-level people.
And after Maudun saw the tribal leader far away, some whispers came into his ears nearby:
"I'm afraid that idiot doesn't know that the Qin people killed more than 2,000 of his riders a few days ago, it's not due to luck. ”
"Who knows, since the other party has already attacked, we are naturally happy to sit back and watch the changes. If that idiot really loses a lot, then his tribe will naturally be in my pocket. ”
......
In fact, there are not a few words like this, but Mao Dun did not let the guards prevent such words from continuing to circulate, because this itself is a manifestation of the law of the Huns, the law of the jungle:
You can keep a wolf in captivity, but you can't change a wolf's thirst for flesh unless you starve it to death.
Just like this sentence, if the tribal leader really can't even keep his own tribe, no one in the Xiongnu will really pity him, maybe the other party will live, but I'm afraid he can only be a slave.
Thinking of this, Mao Dun muttered a sentence: "If you can't see the reality clearly, you will be blinded by the immediate interests, and if you really get that kind of result, I'm afraid you can't resent anyone." ”
............................................................ Dividing line ..........................................
"The Huns came up!!"
On the city wall north of Cloud City, a hundred generals of the Qin army said these words loudly.
And on the city wall, there were not a few Qin officers and soldiers who saw the Huns coming like a tide from the north.
As a result, the officers and soldiers of the entire northern city wall almost quickly entered a state of battle.
Yang Wengzi naturally also saw such a situation in his eyes, he did not take this group of Huns who seemed to have more than four or five thousand people in his eyes, but asked another situation: "Did the Huns from other directions attack together?"
Soon, through the feedback of the flags conveyed in the direction of other city walls, Yang Wengzi quickly knew the answer:
"Lord County Guard, the city walls in several other directions have not found any signs of the Huns moving!"
Yang Wengzi, who heard this sentence, couldn't help but be slightly stunned, because he really didn't expect such a situation to appear.
For him, in this case, the attack of the Huns this time is probably launched by the Huns, who seem to be four or five thousand people.
Either this Huns are super capable of fighting, or the commander of this Huns has become a victim of testing the defenses of Cloudsdale.
Obviously, the former possibility is unlikely, while the latter is very likely.
If this is really the case, Yang Wengzi can't help but express his sincere lament for the Huns of this tribe who were very simply betrayed by other Hun tribes.
But for Yang Wengzi, I'm afraid that's just it. After all, he was already at war with the Huns, as well as between the Great Qin Empire and the Huns.
If the Huns were going to do this tactic every time, he really couldn't ask for it.
It's just that for Yang Wengzi at the moment, how to deal with the attack of this group of Huns is the real focus.
......
The four or five thousand Huns, most of whom were still on their horses, rode their horses slowly, escorting more than a thousand infantry carrying sixteen ladders, advancing to the north of the city in the clouds.
Because Cloudsdale was a fortress on the plains, the Huns thought that a few ladders would be enough in terms of the corresponding preparations for the attack.
And the leader of the Hun tribe, who had been considered abandoned in Mao Dun's heart, did not feel some abnormalities for a while.
He was even dreaming of breaking through the defenses of Cloud City and entering this city in one fell swoop after attracting the Qin people's defense forces from other Xiongnu tribes.
But by the time he realized something was wrong, his men had already traveled nearly half the way.
He glanced at the Huns in the other two directions, and after not advancing towards Cloud City like him, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart.
He wasn't really brave and unscrupulous, and it was really hard to be a fool to think of someone who planned to open the gates of Cloud City in that way.
It's just that after thinking that he has probably become a laughing stock, or that most of the Huns in this area are waiting to see his jokes, the leader of the Hun tribe suddenly couldn't calm down.
After he saw that the situation was wrong, he planned to lead the army back very simply, but he couldn't help but remember that he boasted about Haikou in front of Mao Dun, and his own attack had already been seen by many Huns...... (To be continued.) )
