Chapter 138: Victory in the First Battle
The Wuhuan people were a mile away from Wangping City, and carried out a stone-throwing attack on Wangping City for half an hour, until all the catapults were scrapped, and the soldiers silently retreated into the Wuhuan army under the leadership of the commander.
The commander went to the Chinese army to meet Qiu Liju and reported: "There are less than 1,000 defenders in the city, and the time has come, please make a quick decision to the king, so as not to delay the fighter." ”
When Qiu Liju heard this, he was overjoyed, and immediately commanded 5,000 vanguard troops and slowly approached Wangping.
A quarter of an hour later.
It's just past that hour.
Qiu Liju led the siege troops to slow down in the rear, preparing to launch the first round of offensive against Wangping City.
5,000 Wuhuan soldiers pushed carts full of rolling wood and gravel to the outside of Wangping City to block the moat, the water level of the moat is not high, but the ditch is more than a zhang deep, if it is not filled, it may bring great hidden dangers to the attacker.
If it were the usual time, the Wuhuan people would definitely drive the Han people to block the moat, but now the situation is still unclear, and Qiu Liju still has a mind to take the three counties as his own, so he also has a good idea in his heart, and he has not done anything to harm the Han people.
After a long time.
Five thousand Wuhuan soldiers have pushed the cart into the land of an arrow, just as Zhang Xun silently raised his right hand, ready to order the city defender to shoot the bow to the city, but saw Nan Jiyun suddenly grabbed Zhang Xun's right hand, said: "The armor worn by the Wuhuan people is leather armor, in order to reduce the burden of the war horse under the crotch, the leather armor worn by the Hu people is all protected before and after, if it takes advantage of the time to turn around and retreat, and then apply cold arrows, it will definitely have a miraculous effect of twice the result with half the effort." ”
When Zhang Xun heard this, he nodded silently and said, "I heard that you have been an envoy with Wen You, and I think I must know everything about the Wuhuan people, so according to what you said, after he turns around, it is not too late to release arrows." ”
Looking at the group of Wuhuan soldiers who were screaming with excitement under the city, Zhang Xun smiled coldly and said, "Laugh, laugh, there will be a time for you to suffer later." ”
Outside the north gate of Wangping City, the Wuhuan soldiers filled in a moat about 30 zhang long, and after the completion of the battle, everyone turned their heads and walked towards the Wuhuan array under the leadership of their respective centurions.
This vanguard force of 5,000 men was tasked with filling the moat under Wangping City and opening up a foothold for the follow-up siege troops.
After successfully completing the task, the five thousand Wuhuan soldiers happily dragged their slightly tired bodies towards their own military formation, however, they had just walked less than fifty paces away, and there was a noisy sound like locusts crossing the border.
Before the 5,000 people could look back, hundreds of them had already been shot in the back, screaming and falling in pools of blood.
Individual long-time battle-hardened warriors, after hearing the sound behind them for the first time, the body suddenly reflexively rushed forward, from their movements and forms when running, it is not difficult to see that they can definitely be called long-term veteran oil, this group of people when running to escape, deliberately leaned down, specifically to run in front of the tall and strong people, there is a robe to make a human flesh shield for themselves, so that they can get a glimmer of life.
When it comes to life and death, whether it is the Han people or the Hu people, everyone is fleeing for their lives with the intention of being a friend of the dead and not a poor man, where can they still take care of the friendship of their comrades.
Zhang Xun put his hand on the battlements, condescendingly looked at the Wuhuan soldiers who were like headless flies, and couldn't help but be so excited that he slapped the battlements heavily, and then looked sideways at Nan Jiyun, who was bending his bow and arrows on the side, gave him a thumbs up, and praised him sincerely: "The general is good at archery." ”
In just a short period of time, Nan Jiyun at least opened his bow and shot more than ten Wuhuan centurions, as well as three thousand-commanders.
About a quarter of an hour or so passed.
There were less than 2,000 Wuhuan soldiers left, and they fled back to the Wuhuan array in embarrassment.
Looking at the rather embarrassed Dang Dun, Qiu Liju suddenly had a feeling that he had been tricked, so he asked angrily: "What is going on?" Who just told me that the defenders were less than a thousand? ”
When he heard this, he immediately understood, and even guessed Qiu Liju's thoughts, so he hurriedly ordered someone to arrest the scout who lied about the military situation, and pointed out in public that he was collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country.
After the scout died, he bowed to Qiu Liju and said, "The commander of the thousand commanders, Wu Butai, has been beheaded by the ministers in front of the battle, and now the people who secretly communicate with the Han people have been ambushed. ”
When Qiu Liju heard this, he nodded with satisfaction and said: "The traitor misled the country, and this king almost fell into the villain's calculation because he didn't notice it for a while, but fortunately he found it early, otherwise, it would be too late to regret it." ”
Qiu Liju put all the blame for the unfavorable war on the scouts and Wubutai, and he himself was just a victim who was deceived by traitors, which could play a certain role in stabilizing the morale of the army.
The two sides only fought for one round, and Qiu Liju suffered a big loss at the hands of Zhang Xun.
Qiu Liju gently stroked the mane of the war horse under his crotch, silently looked at Wangping City from afar, and said, "Who is Wangping Shou?" ”
He silently leaned over to Qiu Liju's side and said, "General Wangping is a slut named Nan Jiyun. ”
"Slut?"
When Qiu Liju heard this, he immediately lowered his face, and he looked sideways at the slightly cramped and uneasy man who knew that he had lost his words, and said: "The Han people divide the noble and the low by name, while my Wuhuan people divide the noble and the low by the strong and the weak, you don't have to learn the wrong way." ”
When he heard this, he hurriedly bowed and saluted, deliberately lowered his voice when he spoke, and his attitude was very respectful, and said: "What the king taught is that Badun has been taught. ”
Qiu Liju nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at the direction of Pingchengtou from afar, and said, "Should we divide a surprise army and attack Gaoxian?" ”
Qiu Liju seemed to be muttering to himself, but he was actually asking for advice from Badun.
Hearing this, he frowned and pondered for a moment, then nodded silently, looked sideways at Qiu Liju, and asked tentatively: "Maybe you can divide three thousand iron horsemen and go to Gaoxian to find out?" ”
Hearing this, Qiu Liju frowned, glanced at him silently, and said, "Who is the general?" ”
Following Qiu Liju's meaning, he said the name of Lou Ban lightly.
Lou Ban is the son of Qiu Liju, who is the same age as Liu Wei, and has not yet experienced battlefield fighting, this time Qiu Liju deliberately brought him out to see the world, wanting him to learn and increase some knowledge on the battlefield.
Hearing this, Qiu Liju smiled slightly, and his gaze at Bang Dun softened a lot, and said: "The building class is not a good thing, and he has never experienced the affairs of the battle formation, so it may be difficult to take on the big responsibility." ”
When he heard this, he hurriedly followed Qiu Liju's meaning and said: "I only need to send a person who has been in battle for a long time, rely on him as a deputy general, and let him go with the army." ”
"Who can be the lieutenant general?" Qiu Liju asked.
Qiu Liju can't do without people around him, so he gave up Mao Sui's plan to recommend himself, so he bowed to Qiu Liju and said: "Wuyan is calm and capable, quite a general, and can be a general." ”
"Good."
Qiu Liju nodded with satisfaction and said, "I have this intention, so I will order Wuyan to lead the people of the headquarters and go to Gaoxian with the building class." ”
"No."
In response, he retreated, and Dai Qiu Liju went to give orders to Lou Ban and Wu Yan.
After a long time.
Lou Ban and Wu Yan went to the Chinese army to meet Qiu Liju, and Qiu Liju told the two of them what he thought.
When the two of them heard this, they immediately smiled, and even if they wanted to kill Gao Xian.
Qiu Liju saw that the two of them were so impatient, and suddenly regretted it, but thinking that there was a large army stationed in Wangping City, it was difficult to conquer it in a short time, so he had to give the two of them an order to lead the army to Gaoxian to spy on the city.
Before Lou Ban and Wu Yan left, Qiu Liju tirelessly told the two: "This time I go to Gaoxian, I only need to find out the reality in the city, and we must not take the enemy lightly." ”
The two nodded again and again, agreed, and immediately led the troops away.
