Chapter 630: Stone Ridge Pass

Liu Wu never thought that he was like this, and there were still people willing to come to burn the cold stove.

Becoming the emperor's younger brother is a dream he has persisted in for many years.

At this time, someone was suddenly willing to support him, which really made him feel agitated and difficult to control himself.

After a long while, Liu Wu gradually recovered his mind.

He asked, slightly confused, "Why is that?" ”

Everything has to have a cause, and only when there is a cause can there be an effect.

ran over for no reason and said that he wanted to support himself as the emperor's brother, of course it was impossible.

Tian Wei smiled and said very kindly, "King, the prince's victory is unstoppable, and my sister has no choice." I will wait for a total, only to ask the king to be the emperor's younger brother, and wait for the Son of Heaven to pass on the throne after 10,000 years, and then the king will establish the king of Jiaodong as the crown prince. ”

"Oh~~~"

Liu Wu's face showed a look of understanding.

In his opinion, this is also a reasonable explanation.

After all, Liu Sheng was strong at this time, and other people who coveted the big position almost couldn't see hope.

It is reasonable to join forces with each other to find a way out now.

If Liu Wu's advisor Gongsun is tricky, and Yang Sheng is still there, he will immediately see that this is just using Liu Wu's tricks.

The reason is very simple, after experiencing Yuan An's incident, Liu Wu has offended all the courtiers and nobles of the Han Dynasty, and his reputation among the people is also a hundred miles away.

Under such circumstances, it is absolutely impossible for Liu Wu to be made the emperor's younger brother.

Even if Liu Qi and Empress Dowager Dou were to support it, it would attract unimaginable opposition.

Since things are impossible, what Tian Wei said at this time is naturally a deception to fool Liu Wu, and its purpose is nothing more than to borrow Liu Wu's name and strength.

Although Liu Wu has a bad reputation, he is still a king after all, and he is the brother of the Son of Heaven.

And the Liang State was extremely wealthy, not only rich but also soldiers and horses.

It's a pity that Gongsun Yi and Yang Sheng were both executed for Liu Wu because of Yuan An's incident.

Because of this, no one is willing to work for it.

It can be said that Liu Wu, whose lifelong wish is to become the emperor's younger brother, easily fell into the beautiful scene described by Tian Wei.

It's not easy to deceive people, the most important thing is to do what they like.

Tian Wei understood this very well, so he grabbed Liu Wu's weakness and pulled him onto the warship with the matter of the emperor's younger brother.

"It's finally weighty."

Leaving Liu Wu's mansion, Tian Wei on the carriage finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Wu had hundreds of soldiers and horses inside and outside Chang'an City, and more importantly, he had money and was willing to pay for things.

As long as you have sufficient financial resources, you can secretly buy weapons and armor, you can recruit rangers as wings, and you can buy people in key positions.

Using Liu Wu's wealth to do his own thing, such a good thing is really rare.

Tian Wei on the carriage took out a piece of paper made by Zhongshan State, and looked down the list on the paper for "Yingyin Hou Guanxian, Dou Jia Dou Fu"

The stone ridge was closed, and Li Yunze quietly looked at the valley several miles away.

That place was previously the camp of Huyan and Lin's department, but after being attacked by the Han army at night, the whole family was defeated, and even the heads of Huyan and Lin became trophies.

However, after more than ten days of effort, a large number of Huns came again, and the mighty and mighty could not be seen at a glance, directly filling this valley that was not more than a few miles wide.

Looking at the banner played by the Huns, it is the Huns who are coming.

"Yu Dan."

Li Yunze nodded his head and instructed the people around him, "Pass the order, take it from the single head, and become the Marquis of Jinjue." ”

The apex of the Qin and Han military merit awarding system is the Marquis of Che.

In history, Liu Yu ascended to the throne and changed his name to Liu Che.

In order to avoid the name of the Son of Heaven, all the marquis were changed to liehous.

In terms of the identity of the Xiongnu Zuoxian King, plus the Xiongnu prince, it is a matter of course to take his head as the Marquis of Che.

If it weren't for the fact that the old Liu family no longer crowned the king with a different surname, it would be no problem to directly crown the king.

The young Yu Dan was obviously impatient, and a large number of soldiers and horses were still on the way, so he eagerly urged his men and horses to start attacking the city.

If you are not in a hurry, you can't do it, the back road is cut off, and the Han army, known as hundreds of thousands of people in all directions, is pressing towards Taiyuan County like a mountain, and there is still a Jinyang City inside that has never been captured.

In such an embarrassing environment, the only way out is to immediately open the retreat and calmly exit the plug.

Shiling Pass is the lock that traverses the road that the Huns must pass through to return home.

"Sun Tzu" said, "Don't stop returning to the teacher, surround the teacher, and don't force the poor." ”

It means that the soldiers and horses who are in a hurry to go home should not be blocked, and people will choose to work hard in order to go home.

But now, Li Yunze not only has to block it, but also has to find a way to destroy all these Huns who have entered the Koukou.

At this time, he had already learned that the Huns who had entered the Kou were not only the royal court of the military minister Shan Yu, but also the royal court of Yu Dan's Youxian Wang, who also came in.

If these Huns are left behind, then the Huns will be broken and their strength will be greatly damaged.

Looking at the Huns who were surging over in the distance, Li Yunze calmly instructed, "Order the passes and passes in various places in Luliang Mountain, be sure to strictly guard the strong walls and clear the wilderness, and not let the Huns pass." ”

"Whoa."

The Huns seemed to be in a desperate situation, but Li Yunze could detect in advance that they still had a way to live.

That is, to the west over the Luliang Mountain, into the bank of the great river.

On the other side of the river, Henan was still under the control of the Huns at this time, and the headquarters of King Youxian was attacking Shangjun in Henan at this time.

If the Huns chose this route to escape, although there would be great losses along the way, there would still be a large part of the living forces that would be able to escape.

Li Yunze would not pin his hopes on the fact that the Huns did not understand the geographical environment of the Han Dynasty, and he had long ordered that no troops should be sent to the passes along Luliang Mountain, and now he just emphasized it again.

As for Yu Dan's attack at this time, Li Yunze did not pay attention to it.

Although Shiling Pass is dilapidated, it is the armor soldiers of Zhongshan Country who are stationed here, and they want to break through here and escape?

Wash and sleep, you have everything in your dreams.

As early as the end of the Qin Dynasty, when the Huns took advantage of the chaos in Middle-earth to seize Henan, they obtained a large number of pre-Qin remnants.

After that, the Han and the Hungarians fought for many years, and they captured many Han people.

Coupled with the Han people who defected to the Xiongnu, the technological level of the Xiongnu is actually not much worse than that of the Han Dynasty, and it can be called the second in the world under the Han Dynasty.

What they really lack is a systematic industrial production capacity.

Large-scale mining, smelting, forging, manufacturing industries and related ancillary industries.

The ordinary Xiongnu tribe may not be very good, but at the level of King Zuoxian, the technical ability he learned from the Han family is not bad.

Just like at this time, the Huns almost swept away the woods in the valley and built many siege equipment in battle.

There were about 2,000 Huns in the lead, pushing a lot of siege equipment forward.

It was followed by hundreds of cavalry, overseeing the army.

It's not that Yu Dan can't get more manpower, but the section from the valley to Shiling Pass is like a gourd mouth, and the road is narrow and can't fit too many people.

A horse-riding warrior stepped forward, reined in his horse at a distance of 100 paces from Shiling Pass, and shouted to the pass, "Which general is guarding here?" King Zuo Xian has something to say~~~"

"Heh~~~"

Li Yunze understands this routine very well, isn't it just a bribe.

"Ask him." Li Yunze turned his head sideways and instructed Wei Qing behind him, "What price can you offer." ”

"Whoa."

Wei Qing received the order, took two steps forward to the back of the female wall, and shouted to the Hun cavalry a hundred steps away, "What are the conditions, just drive out!" ”

The Hun warrior was surprised by Wei Qing's youth, but he still quickly responded, "King Zuo Xian has a word, as long as the general is willing to submit, he should lead a part of himself as the king." Cattle, sheep and horses, tent carts, wine and beauty, gold, silver and gems as much as you want! ”

"King Zuo Xian said, as long as the general is willing to submit and be willing to become brothers with the general! From then on, outside the Great Wall, under one person, above ten thousand people! ”

This condition has to be said to be very high.

Chen Xuan, Lu Juan and others, who defected to the Xiongnu at the beginning, were only crowned kings when they arrived in the Xiongnu.

In terms of status, he swore to King Zuo Xian as a brother, and then he could be regarded as a real high-level of the Xiongnu.

As for goods and materials, they are not that important.

If it is a military marquis, a military horse, or even a school captain stationed here, I can't really be moved.

But at this time, it was the king of Zhongshan who was stationed here.

Don't let go of the Han Dynasty, what do you do under one person when you run the Huns?

Wei Qing turned his head to look at Li Yunze, waiting for the king's instructions on how to respond.

'Phew. ’

Li Yunze sneered, "Tell him, as long as Yu Dan's head is sent over, then let them go north and get out of the fortress." ”

No, the negotiations naturally broke down.

After the Hun cavalry left, the siege team that had been waiting for a long time officially began to attack.

"Kill!" The Huns roared and rushed to the walls.

"Put!" The defenders' crossbowmen fired a volley, and a sharp rain of arrows fell under the walls, and they were instantly overturned.

As with the problems faced by the Huns, the defenders here were also too narrow to place all the men and horses on it.

There are only more than 100 crossbowmen who can be arranged on the head of the city.

The Huns' counterattack here was also very fierce, and their archers were at close range, and they could finally exert their strength to the fullest.

I saw that among the Huns under the city wall, many sharp arrows flew out, and many of them accurately hit the defenders.

Especially the crossbowmen, who lacked the protection of their visors, from time to time someone was shot and fell to the ground screaming.

Even the armorers wearing iron armor and ghost faces were sniped by the marksman.

Zuo Xian's subordinates were different from other Xiongnu tribes, and their strength was second only to the royal court.

Its tribe possessed many iron arrows and strong bows, which were used to deal with Han soldiers at close range, enough to shoot through the ghost face.

Seeing this, Li Yunze frowned slightly, "Your eyes are very good, right, throw the ash bottle." ”

The so-called ash bottle is to put lime powder in the bottle to attack the enemy in battle, so that the enemy can not open his eyes.

More than 100 ash bottles were thrown down, and suddenly lime powder was filled, and coughing sounds were everywhere in the city.

Those Hun marksmen who were still showing off their martial arts before, at this time they were screaming and rubbing their eyes one by one, where did they still have the heart to shoot arrows again.

The lime thing is blinding and has to be cleaned with vegetable oil.

Especially quicklime, once washed with water, the lime reacts with the water, and the eyes are gone.

The first wave of the Huns' offensive was under more than a hundred gray bottles.
