Chapter 181: Our Sheep

The county yali of Wudu County, since Liu Bao came here, he has not been in a good mood for a day, he originally thought that if he took Wuyuan County and forced Taiyuan County, the imperial court would definitely send envoys to sue for peace, and then they would be able to recognize the belonging of Wuyuan County and Yunzhong, and they could blackmail some more grain at will. By next year, he would attack and merge the state on a large scale, but the development of things gradually surprised him.

Since learning that more than 10,000 Hun cavalry in the clouds attacked Yanmen and were completely annihilated, and the left general Hu Yanzhuo was killed in battle, Liu Bao has been a little worried in his heart, Hu Yanzhuo is the wife and brother of Hu Chuquan, the right virtuous king, or a member of the Huyan family surnamed Huyan. Hu Chuquan asked Hu Yanzhuo to come, on the one hand, to mix some merits, and on the other hand, to see Liu Bao's movements. All Liu Bao left him in the clouds, who knows that this fool led his troops to attack Yanmen County, and died there. This made him explain how to Hu Chuquan.

Originally, I wanted to gather the cavalry of Wuyuan County and go to Wudu County to force the Han people to sue for peace, but it has been almost ten days, and the leaders of those tribes have not yet arrived.

A soldier hurried in to report it.

"Dashuai, the chief of the Luanping tribe sent news that their tribe's camp was attacked by Lu Bu, and two thousand sheep and fifty war horses were killed. I can't go to Wudu County today."

"Lu Bu......" Liu Bao shouted these two words from between his teeth. His fists were clenched, and his teeth were clenched. Since the last time LĂź Bu successfully broke through from Wuyuan County, he led dozens of soldiers to attack their small tribes of the Xiongnu everywhere. It has seriously slowed down the speed at which he has gathered his army, and seeing that the heavy snow is coming, it is no longer realistic to want to deter Taiyuan County.

"Inform them that they don't use it," Liu Bao sighed and let go of his clenched hands.

Since this opportunity has been missed, everything can only be considered in the long run. Yunzhong County is empty, if you forcibly attack Taiyuan County, I am afraid it will not work, and now there is no chance of coercion and temptation.

Liu Bao and the leaders of the Huns discussed, decided to withdraw the troops back to Yunzhong County first, two days later, Liu Bao took 20,000 Hun cavalry and 10,000 Hun slaughterers to Xiangping County. Xiangping County is located in the southwest corner of Yunzhong County, where the four counties meet. To the south is Wuyuan County, and to the east is Taiyuan County, but it is blocked by mountains. Along a winding mountain road, northeast to the hinterland of Yanmen County, Wuyang County, but the mountain road is rugged, the road is full of strange rocks, and some places have been washed away by flash floods, even the locals of Wuyang County rarely choose to pass here.

In the big tent, Liu Bao sat on the first seat, looking at the leaders of the various ethnic groups arguing below, his brain was buzzing.

Ever since he proposed to take the mountain road to raid the county seat of Wuyang County, the debate has been endless. Liu Bao's troops insisted on listening to Liu Bao and attacking him unprepared, but the leader of the tribe felt that the mountain road was difficult to walk, and if the snow closed the mountain, the gains would outweigh the losses. It's better to go to Yanmen Pass to make steady progress.

"Don't make any noise," Liu Bao yelled, causing everyone to shrink their necks in fright.

"Since you don't want to take the mountain road to attack Wuyang County, then go and attack Yanmen Pass. But I said ugly things ahead, it was you who were going to attack Yanmen Pass, not me who asked you to go, if anyone dares to give me Yang Feng Yin and Yin and work hard, don't let me turn my face and deny people."

Liu Bao spoke, pulled out a dagger, and leisurely shaved his nails.

"Don't worry, Dashuai, we must work hard to win Yanmen Pass"

The tribal leaders also know that Liu Bao has lost face today, and if they are perfunctory at Yanmen Pass, I am afraid that Liu Bao will not let them go easily.

"In that case, I'll wait for your good news, let's go down and prepare."

A group of leaders left to fight, went to the place where the clansmen gathered, brought soldiers, horses and slaves, and killed all the way towards Yanmen Pass.

Huang Zhong, the guard of Yanmen Pass, turned pale after learning the news. Hurriedly sent the news to the side pass and waited for Wang Gang's soldiers to come back to help. There are 2,000 two-star archers in the city, and some are still one-star. As for the three stars, all of them were brought away by Chu Yu, which was also what Fan Chong meant.

In addition, Huang Zhong brought the sword and shield soldiers all the way, but he was disgusted by Wu Zhao, so he stayed in Yanmen Pass. Now there are more than 10,000 Hun cavalry, and thousands of Hugh slaughterers have been killed, so how can Huang Zhong not worry.

The Hun army lined up in the valley, and the black pressure could not see the edge, and then one by one the horns blew, reverberating in the valley non-stop, and it was exciting to hear.

The ladders were built on the city wall, braving the arrows like rain on it, desperately climbing upward, completely disregarding life and death, and the war entered a white heat from the moment it broke out. Originally, the Huns wanted to take Yanmen Pass in one go, but the archers on the city wall were too elite, and most of the Hugh Tu and Xiongnu slaves who rushed forward were killed and wounded before they reached the pass.

"Keep your hands steady, draw your bow full, keep your eyes straight ahead, and press the tip of the arrow down. Yes, shoot the arrows"

Huang Zhong stood on the wall, he did not let the soldiers scatter wave by wave, but asked the soldiers to aim carefully at each arrow, and only release the arrows when it was pulled into a full moon, although this kind of killing was not as shocking as the arrow rain, but the actual killing effect was much more ideal than the arrow rain.

"The sword and shield soldiers stepped forward, and someone came up and smashed them with their shields, so pay attention to dodge."

Originally, it was okay to give the order, but Huang Zhong had to explain carefully and repeatedly, bit by bit, and strive to minimize the casualties of the defenders on the city wall to the maximum.

"The archers of the second team go to the city, and the first team goes down to rest"

Huang Zhong divided the archers of the city wall into four squads, each of which defended for an hour. Because Huang Zhong knew that drawing a bow and releasing arrows for a long time consumed physical strength and hurt his fingers. It doesn't matter if you don't aim at a half-bow like before, but a single point kill like him won't work.

The performance of this archer really satisfied Huang Zhong, these are archers with a certain foundation, as long as they give a little guidance and get rid of some bad habits, they will definitely become an elite of the elite.

At first, the archers of the city wall shot arrows, and the enemy could rush to the city wall to fight with the sword and shield soldiers, but slowly found that few people could rush to the city wall, and gradually it was difficult to get close to the city wall. It wasn't until Huang Zhong changed a wave of archers that Hugh Tu people rushed to the city wall again.

One of the Hugh slaughterers dodged the wooden shield smashed by the sword and shield soldiers, and took advantage of the situation to force the sword and shield soldiers away with his scimitar, and stood on the city wall, and then he saw a scene that surprised him. In the entire official road, a piece of white flowers, countless Mianyang, stretching for several miles, there is no end in sight.

"Look, there are so many sheep, they are our sheep," Hugh Tu had just finished shouting, when a short knife had pierced his chest, and he fell on his back, his eyes still open, and his mouth kept muttering "My sheep"

Although the Hugh Tu man was killed, his words still attracted the attention of the others, and they all looked into the city, and immediately shouted.

"It's the sheep, it's our sheep"
