Chapter 443. Liucheng

In the setting sun, the grassland seems to have been stabbed a few times, soaked in a layer of rich blood, a piece of crows hovering in the air, emitting bursts of ominous noise, spreading out from the White Wolf Mountain to the east for dozens of miles, the wretched human corpses and horse corpses are thrown everywhere in the east and west, and the totem flags that are shot out of holes by arrows are desolate and inserted among the corpses.

Fight for land and kill people!

However, Zhang Liao really won this battle beautifully, just like that Tang poem: cut off a hundred miles and behead five thousand! Daima bleed to death, and Hu people hugged the saddle and wept! The main front row of meat shield Wang Hou dang, annihilating the enemy in the sports battle, the equipment is better than these Wuhuan people, the Han army only lost a thousand people in total with serious injuries and deaths, and almost everyone had minor injuries, Wang Hou himself made people cut an electric cannon, and his eyes were blue, but they were all within the acceptable range.

And the Wuhuan people, who died on the spot, were hit by arrows, stabbed, and stabbed by spears and went back to the grave to get inflamed and break the grave, because there must be at least tens of thousands of people here in today's battle.

With the heroic and barbarian Shan Yu Dun is still here!

However, although the White Wolf Mountain was slaughtered into a sea of corpses and blood, the war with Wuhuan was not over, after all, although the White Wolf Mountain was very important to Wuhuan, it was only a gathering place for the Wuhuan people to gather troops to the south to plunder, and after returning to the army, they held a meeting hall similar to the Naadam Conference in Mongolia in later generations, which itself has no strategic value.

The only one that really has strategic value is Liucheng, the settlement center that Qiu Juli and Badun have painstakingly built on the grassland.

There are more than tens of thousands of Wuhuan tribes and the Yuan clan gathered here, Wuhuan came from Hebei, and nearly 200,000 Han families were coerced, plus the population of the elderly and children can be 3,890,400,000, although no one takes human life as their life in troubled times, but the population is a valuable wealth for any warlord!

Especially Wang Hou's goods, it is even more greedy drool.

In one day of bloody battle, he completely broke through the eight major departments and 100,000 tents gathered here, but just after the end of the journey, he was not even allowed to rest, leaving the corpses of the huge prairie to feed the crows, Zhang Liao actually made a strong request and went straight to Liucheng to march.

Not to mention that people are not machines, even if people can resist, they will fight for most of the day, and the horse will not be able to bear it!

And don't look at Zhang Liao's command is quite brilliant, but what the big guy is grateful for is also Wang Hou's grace after the break, he didn't earn much kindness, as soon as he heard this, Xiahoudun and several of them all exploded, and in the end, Wang Hou was a good man to play a round, rest for an hour, and promised that after arriving in Liucheng, one person would send an extra piece of cloth as a reward, which pacified the army.

It was the speed of the soldiers, they set off overnight, turned back from the White Wolf Mountain to the north, and once again ran for more than 200 miles, before any of the Wuhuan tribes returned to Liucheng, and the cavalry of the Han army appeared outside Liucheng like a divine soldier descending from heaven.

It's just that when he arrived at the place, Wang Hou, who was in a hurry overnight and was dislocated by the war horse, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

That's right, Liucheng has four or five hundred thousand households, Wang Hou thought it was a strong city outside the city, but when he got to the ground, he couldn't help but be disappointed.

The location of this Wuhuan Shan in the court is indeed dangerous, the walled city built along the mountain of Nurul Tiger Mountain, condescendingly, overlooking an alluvial plain, looks quite spectacular, but the size, just like the crow's nest fortress in the "Witcher 3", and even the architectural form is similar, the top layer is the "imperial city" where the Wuhuan princes such as Bundun live, and there are wooden stakes more than one and a half meters high inserted in the earthen wall more than one and a half meters high, and the "imperial city" leads to the trench dug between the "willow city" below, and then it is built of wood, Even many places directly use large leather tents and large felt bags as houses, where the dignitaries of Wuhuan live.

At this size, there are only 12300 small houses, which are not as big as a county in the Central Plains.

And what is really precious in Liucheng is that it has been plundered by the Wuhuan people over the years, as well as the population brought by the Yuan family, as well as the Wuhuan households, and the 30,000 accounts belonging to the Bunton are scattered on the huge impact plain.

These Han Chinese who were exiled to the north also followed the customs of the locals, living in felt bags, scattered like big mushrooms on the alluvial plains on the banks of the Dalong River.

In later generations, Wang Hou went to Hetuala, the birthplace of the Qing Dynasty, he didn't understand what royal spirit, but when he really arrived at the place, he could also see the peculiarity of this place, surrounded by hills and mountains, but there was a vast alluvial plain in the middle of the hills, a Suzi River ran through the entire mountain plain, and Hetuara City was located on the easternmost mountain platform of the alluvial plain, along the rugged slopes of the city, looking down on the entire valley plain.

The geographical environment here is roughly similar to Hetuala, but it is twice as vast as Hetuala, and the terrain is like a dustpan on the earth, with its opening to the east, and its defense is slightly inferior to Hetuala, but it can be regarded as a land of kings and kings who are in danger of mountains and rivers.

Arrived in the middle of the night, in the morning light, watching the sun rise from the east, slowly shining into the valley of the Daling River, the golden brilliance is lit up by the mushroom-like felt buns, at the end of May and the beginning of June, although the pieces are scattered and irregular, but the lush wheat is also dyed with a layer of golden light, on the mountains in the distance, there are a circle of white sheep like clouds on the ground lazily bathing in the sun, looking at this scene, pinching the mustache on the chin, Wang Hou can't help but point his head melon seeds.

Well, it's a great place!

This thing is on the lookout.

The calm of Liucheng lasted only half a morning, and was disturbed by the sudden arrival of these uninvited guests, and suddenly the Han army that appeared at the mouth of the Liucheng Valley like a wolf and a tiger caused a panic of the entire tribe, shouting in panic, the Wuhuan herdsmen drove the cattle herd to the northwest direction of Liucheng Mountain Fort to flee, but the big fortress could not hold the 30,000 tents at all, only some tribal nobles were put in by the defenders, and most of them could only shrink under the wall in fear and look at it from afar.

As for the Han people, they seem to be much calmer, what could be worse than being robbed by the Hu people to the north to become serfs? At first, they also hid in shabby and narrow felt bags, but seeing that the Han army that rushed over did not loot on a large scale, these people slowly came out again, and watched from a distance like a goose, or even a little more tiger, and then carried a hoe to work in the field.

Although he hurried slowly, but when he arrived in Liucheng, even Zhang Liao couldn't help but relax, the reason why he was in such a hurry was to take advantage of the heat of cutting off his head to completely beat Wuhuan Shan Yuting to death! In case it slows down, which of the eight major tribes will emerge and take the Wuhuan tribe to move west and enter the territory of the Xianbei people in the Mongolian steppe, it will be difficult to get it!

But now, after arriving in Liucheng and seeing the camp of these nomadic tribes, so that they can no longer move west, even if the task is completed, as for the siege! Please, uncle, I'm a cavalryman, that's the work of the infantry!

More than 20,000 scars of battle, the meritorious Han cavalry was relaxed by him, in addition to leaving the necessary thousands of cavalry to guard and sentry, the rest directly turned over and dismounted, and they were really tired to the extreme, people directly curled up beside their war horses, lying in the grass, one by one the big men fell asleep, for a while, there was a loud snoring sound everywhere.

Hearing this snoring, Wang Hou himself was fighting with his eyelids, he was so tired!
