Chapter 622: Dune

Chapter 622

All the grain and grass of the Western Regions Alliance Army was concentrated in Dune City, west of Loulan City.

After several days of reconnaissance, the Qin army found Dune City, the granary of the Western Regions Alliance.

And Dune City is also the last step of the Qin army's encirclement of the Western Regions Alliance, and the defeat of Dune City will also complete the encirclement of the Western Regions Alliance.

Qin Xi personally led five thousand iron horsemen to attack Dune City.

Qin Xi himself blew open the gate of Dune City with the explosives pack, and the iron cavalry drove straight in, capturing Dune City in less than half an hour.

"Your Highness! The Castle Keeper will bring! The guard reported.

"Bring it on." Qin Xi said on his horse.

Soon the defender of Dune City was brought in, and this man knelt down and begged for mercy.

Qin Xi held up the man's head with the spear in his hand and asked, "How much grain is here?" โ€

The guard general said cautiously: "Back to the general, the food here can be used for half a year for 100,000 troops. โ€

"How often will the coalition forces at the front come to transport grain and grass, and when will they come next?" Qin Xi then asked.

"General Hui, come to transport grain and grass every ten days, and the next time will be two days later." The guards did not dare to hide it, but only hoped to survive.

After the Qin army took control of Dune City, they immediately blocked the news, and the rest of the army also entered the city one after another.

"Your Highness! In the future, this kind of thing will be handed over to the last general, if something happens to you, the last general will not be able to explain it. Fan Xu immediately breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that Qin Xi was safe.

Qin Xi didn't want to get entangled with Fan Xu in this matter, so he handed Fan Xu a glass of water and asked, "What is the situation on the other three sides?" โ€

Fan Xu turned the water cup and said

Said: "After His Highness took people to set off, news came from the other three sides, and they were all deployed in place, but we must act as soon as possible, otherwise it will not be hidden for long." โ€

Qin Xi nodded, and sat on the stairs of the city tower with a water glass.

"Han Xin has been in the city for twelve days, and he really can't delay it any longer."

"Pass the military order! The whole army rests! Tomorrow evening, the whole army will set off! โ€

"No!"

Fan Xu drank all the water in his hand, the whole person shuddered, and exclaimed: "This water is so cold!" It's like ice! โ€

Qin Xi said with a smile: "This water has just been taken up from the underground waterway, it's hard to believe that there is such cold water under the ground in such a hot place. โ€

"It's really enjoyable to be able to drink such cold water in such a hot place." Fan laughed.

"Okay, let's go and reorganize the army, I don't want to move, I'm going to go up and lie down for a while." Qin Xi stood up and said.

"No." Fan Xu watched Qin Xi go up before walking away.

Qin Xi came to the roof of the building and directly spread the cloak on his body on the ground.

Qin Xi lay down on it, closed his eyes and rested.

In this battle, the Qin army took advantage of the situation to lay out, and the goal was to eat the 100,000 troops of the Western Regions Alliance.

Loulan is vast and sparsely populated, and the population is not much, once the 100,000 troops of the Western Regions Alliance Army are annihilated, the strength of the countries in the Western Regions will not be much.

At that time, the Western Regions would have completely fallen into the hands of Great Qin.

In addition to Han Xin's road, the Qin army was divided into four routes, led by Bai Yi, Fusu, Jiang Lu and Qin Xi, and had already reached a siege of the Western Regions coalition army.

In fact, Qin Xi's original plan was not to use Loulan as bait, but to hope that Loulan City could be been

Capture.

Qin Xi's original plan was to wait for Loulan City to fall, let Han Xin rescue the king of Loulan, and then stage a wave of Western Regions version of the blackmail of the princes to order the princes.

However, the appearance of Tubo and Han Xin's unauthorized assertion made Qin Xi have to change his plan.

To be honest, Qin Xi didn't care if Loulan was occupied by Tubo, because the Qin army would be able to recapture it soon.

And Han Xin's thoughts obviously disagreed with Qin Xi, and Han Xin's actions could no longer be stopped, which made Qin Xi very angry.

Qin Xi had a fire in his heart, and he had been holding it back for a long time, so he personally led five thousand iron horsemen to attack the city this time.

The sunset in the Western Regions came late, and when the sunset came, the Western Regions coalition army launched the siege again.

This time the siege was dominated by the Tubo army, which launched a large-scale attack on Loulan City.

Han Xin stood at the head of the city, and when he saw the Tubo army pushing out the battering ram and the simple ladder, Han Xin suddenly felt that something was wrong.

"! How can these barbarians have these things! Han Xin said angrily.

"Xiahou Baby! You immediately take people to the other three gates to check if the enemy has siege equipment! โ€

"No!"

"Pass the military order! Concentrate all the arrows and slings! โ€

"No!"

"Pass the military order! Concentrate all the arrows and slings! The guards hurried away to give the order.

This battle is bound to be extremely difficult.

The Loulan army had never seen the siege ladder in the Central Plains, and it was not easy to deal with it.

Fortunately, with Han Xin and the Qin army, they could deal with the siege of the Tibetans.

Not long after, Xiahou Ying ran back out of breath.

"General! There were no siege engines in the other three directions

, which is good news. Xiahou Ying reported.

Han Xin breathed a sigh of relief for the time being, and said to Xiahou Ying: "Send someone to keep an eye on the situation of the other three gates, in case the other three gates will also appear siege equipment." โ€

"General, the enemy army didn't have siege equipment before, why did it suddenly have it?" Xiahou Ying wondered.

Han Xin said with a gloomy face: "Before our army set off, the envoy of Tubo was still in my Daqin, and it must have been that guy who got it." โ€

"What the general means is that there are people in the DPRK who ยทยทยทยทยทยท"

"You can't talk nonsense." Han Xin said with a calm face: "You immediately send a message to Your Highness and explain the situation here." โ€

"Now that the Tubo people have siege equipment, I'm afraid Loulan City won't last long."

"No!"

The siege of Tibet lasted for a while, and it seemed that it was only to test the feasibility of siege equipment.

But even so, Loulan City suffered heavy losses, and even had to let the tiger ride come up.

Although the enemy army has retreated, Han Xin knows that tomorrow the Tibetan army will definitely launch a more fierce attack, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to hold it at that time.

Han Xin had to find King Loulan and explain the situation.

Agugina asked, "Are we really unable to hold on?" โ€

Han Xin shook his head and said, "The walls of Loulan City are too low to be stopped, but I have already sent a message to His Highness, just see if His Highness will be able to catch up tomorrow." โ€

"Can't you survive tomorrow?" King Loulan asked.

"Just after the battle, my tiger rider has already gone up, but it is estimated that it will not be able to hold for a few hours, so I have to be prepared."

"If you can't hold it, the Tiger Riding Party will cover the king to break through from the east gate." Han Shin

Said.

"Thank you, General Han, let's go and prepare first."

After Han Xin left, King Loulan said to Agujina: "This king wants to live and die with Loulan, go and prepare." โ€
