Chapter 546: Heyuan is in danger!
Ding Hu, who was rushing back and forth in the crowd of Huns, naturally saw their movements, but he didn't panic.
With a sneer, he continued to rush straight forward, and the Tiger Hunters on the opposite side did the same.
The two sides staggered through the Hun army, killed the opposite side, and soon broke through the formation of the Xiongnu rear army.
At the same time, thinking that they were going to run, he turned around with a shout and launched a chase to the right, which was the most crowded.
It's just that as soon as he chased to the hillside, he suddenly rushed to the front and waited for the charging arrows to start rolling on his back!
The people shouted that the horses neighed, and the Hun cavalry that followed behind did not have time to stop their horses, and they collided headlong again!
Herod!
After a closer look, it was found that a horizontal lock was straightened out of the grass and blocked in front of the Hun cavalry, which was the main reason why the Huns turned their horses on their backs.
Looking at the sides of the hillside again, rows of Song troops in fiery red uniforms suddenly appeared and killed the Hun cavalry who had already turned on their backs with the weapons in their hands!
"Kill!"
Long Lie shouted, brandished a simple knife and rushed to the front, and slashed into the neck of a Hun cavalryman, not a knife in half, but as he pumped hard, the blood instantly burst out like a fountain of hula, scattering Long Lie's head all over his face!
Warm blood sprinkled on his body, Long Lie's eyes instantly appeared crazy, grinned, dodged the attack of a Hun soldier, brandished the Pu knife and killed into the crowd again.
And Ding Hu, who had already left, came back in a big circle, and then went straight into the Hun rear army that stayed in place.
When the rear army was completely destroyed, Long Lie's side was almost over, how could the Hun cavalry who failed to rush up be the opponent of the Praetorian Guards who were proficient in this way in foot combat.
The cavalry led by Hu Yezhi was defeated in this battle, defeated by the poor information, and was ambushed and killed by Long Lie and others!
Even he himself died quietly in the chaos.
Heyuan Castle.
"Siege !!"
Tira roared, and the Huns held another siege!
The defenders of Heyuan City had just rested for less than two hours, and in the blink of an eye, the siege began again.
From the arrival of the Xiongnu again to the present, the Xiongnu began to attack the city non-stop!
Three whole days!
You will be given a maximum of two hours to sleep at night, and the rest of the time will be spent in siege.
There were many Huns, and the first to attack the city were all Song people, so they were not distressed.
But the number of defenders was only so large, and they had to guard four gates.
As the siege progressed, the number of defenders continued to decrease, and the pressure to defend the city became greater and greater!
Originally, there were two shifts in rotation, but now the number of people is so small that they have to hold on to one shift to the end!
"Whew! Whew! Whew! ”
At the head of the city, Ding Cheng gasped for breath, slashed down a Hun who had survived thousands of difficulties and dangers and finally climbed to the top of the city, and hurriedly recovered his strength while the people had not yet come up.
This time, not only the Huns fought, but the soldiers defending the city fought, and even he himself fought!
He knew what the family had done for him.
The Tiger Hunter Army, that is the heritage of the family, the hole card that the Ding family relies on, and the foundation that the Ding family can still live in the Great Song Dynasty when they are so arrogant.
The cousin actually sent it out for himself.
According to the frequency of the Xiongnu attacks in the past two days, if Heyuan City had no support, it would have been broken, and he should have run away a long time ago according to his habits.
But this time, for the sake of the family, he really fought hard, a garrison general, personally defended the city at the forefront, and even went into battle to fight the Huns!
But if this continues, Heyuan City will really not be able to hold it, but he has never received a reply to the letter he sent to the rear for help.
Do your best.
This is Ding Cheng's idea.
The Xiongnu are still besieging the city.
……
Bianjing, the imperial city.
"Your Majesty, the Dragon Guard Army and the Divine Guard Army have taken the two cities of Huantong and Suyun with the assistance of the Tiger Hunter Army, and the 140,000 Hun troops under the command of the Xiongnu Right Xian King and the Huns have been wiped out in a battle, and now in addition to the 10,000 people left behind in the three cities, the rest of the army has approached Heyuan City!"
"Good! Well done! ”
Zhao Duan couldn't help but praise it, and took back Daliang City and other three cities, which means that they can close the door and beat the dog next.
And the 140,000 troops of the Xiongnu were wiped out, which also weakened the strength of the Xiongnu.
Now the three armies are coming to Heyuan City with 140,000 people, and if they are combined with the army in Heyuan City, the number has reached about 250,000.
also has the capital to fight with the Huns.
Zhao Duan immediately arrived: "Send a message to Long Lie and Zhang Baiye, everything is according to plan, there is only one chance, don't fail, I am waiting for their good news!" ”
"No!"
Cao Shuang responded when even if he went to the Imperial City Division to give an order, now the contact between Bianjing and the Praetorian Guard is all through the channels of the Imperial City Division, and naturally the order is also to be sent to the Imperial City Division.
The next morning, the imperial court also received the good news from the direction of Daliang, and the hundred officials congratulated them and urged the army to return quickly.
These Tianheyuan City has asked for help again and again, but the strength of the imperial court is also insufficient, so it has not been given, but the offensive of the Xiongnu has been so strong, if the Dragon Guard Army does not wait again, the courtiers are afraid that the Xiongnu will really take Heyuan City.
Zhao Duan naturally agreed, and issued an order to Long Weijun and others in the name of the imperial court.
Immediately afterwards, everyone in the court discussed the transportation of logistics materials.
On the official road from Tongguan to Heyuan, Long Lie and the others finally received the news of the imperial city, and after reading it together, they nodded to each other and both understood the meaning.
Looking at the tiger hunter who was riding alone on the side, both of them shook their heads slightly.
It didn't take long for the Xiongnu side to also receive the reason why the two cities of Hetong were also lost, Tila's heart sank, and then looked at the Heyuan City that had not been captured for six or seven days in front of him, and his eyes were red in an instant, and he immediately ordered:
"At all costs! Within three days, this single Yu will enter Heyuan City, otherwise thousands of generals will be beheaded! ”
As soon as this order came out, the Huns, who had been fishing behind the captured Song people, no longer dared to touch the fish, and they began to fight desperately.
The people who felt the deepest change in their desperate efforts were the defenders of Heyuan City.
For example, the number of enemy troops who could rush to the head of the city in an hour was only a few hundred at most, but now it suddenly exceeded a thousand, and the pressure instantly doubled!
This made the defenders who had finally adapted to the rhythm of the Xiongnu siege unaccustomed to it, and almost collapsed, but most of the veterans in the defenders were from Chen Turin, barely stabilizing the situation.
But as soon as this strength increased, Ding Cheng looked at the city head that was becoming more and more difficult to defend, and muttered in his heart.
Can this city be defended?
"General! Two hundred Huns burst up from the east city gate! Request support! ”
"General! The west gate was broken by a crash, and the brothers suffered more than 1,000 casualties to recapture the city gate, and the city gate hole has been blocked with earth and stones, but the brothers have suffered too many casualties, and the number of people in the west city is insufficient, please send reinforcements as soon as possible! ”
"General, the North City Gate is asking for reinforcements!"
"General! The East Gate asks for reinforcements ......"
Just as he was muttering, an urgent report from the four city walls suddenly came from all over the city wall requesting reinforcements, and Ding Cheng had to quickly transfer the reserves to the city gates for reinforcements.
It's just that, in this way, he no longer has reserves in his hands, this is already the last batch, and if he asks for it again, there are really no reinforcements.
If this Heyuan City doesn't come to support again, he will really have to run away again!
Ding Cheng thought to himself.
