Chapter 643: The Huns are coming
Gule, the right virtuous king, took the distress letter of the king of Qiuzi, frowned and looked at it for a long time, and finally said: "The messenger goes down first, I will think about it." ”
The envoy of the king of Qiuzi said with some concern: "King Youxian, my king promises that he will make every sacrifice to King Youxian, and after this battle, next year there will be an increase of 100,000 gold and silver, and 10,000 cattle and sheep." ”
"Alright, let's go down." King Youxian waved his hand.
The envoy had to withdraw from the big tent of the right virtuous king of the Xiongnu.
King Youxian looked left and right, and said, "I was really careless before, and I actually made a small Duhufu army wait for the climate, what do you say?" ”
A few commanders under the tent of the Right Sage King began to discuss.
"King, naturally we are going to fight, we must deter those small countries that dare to resist us, let them see, the end of resisting us is destruction, those miscellaneous soldiers who have gathered together are not to be afraid, we only need to send 10,000 cavalry, we will definitely be able to destroy them at one time."
"Yes, if they are allowed to continue to operate, it will only become more and more stable, and it is better to destroy them while they are unstable, and perhaps, they can also take the opportunity to take the turtle."
"What's the use of asking for land, we want gold and silver, horses, cattle and sheep, and women."
"Hahahaha, then let King Qiuzi worship five times as much."
"Yes, we helped King Qiuzi repel the Han people, ten times less."
King Youxian looked at the group of confident guys below, showing a confident smile, the Huns are in the grassland desert, never afraid of war, when the Han Dynasty was first established, they almost killed their founding emperor, if he didn't pray for peace with gold and silver, how could there be something later.
Han Wu, Wei Qing, Huo Quai, that era is gone, and now the Central Plains is in turmoil, and it is the moment when the Xiongnu rise again.
"Okay, tomorrow we will start reorganizing the army, and we will set off in three days, and we will kill directly to Qiuzi, and after destroying those so-called coalition forces, we will destroy all the small countries that dare to resist us, deter the countries of the Western Regions, and never suffer in the future. The Right Virtuous King said with a rainbow of momentum.
......
Jiang Hao sent three armies to attack Xincheng, Luntai and Qiuci City respectively, the army of Qiuci City was just to prevent Qiuci City from reinforcing on both sides, Jiang Hao's real purpose was to take the surrounding two cities as soon as possible, now it is winter, the winter in the Western Regions is cold, and when it snows, people can really freeze to death.
Taking Luntai and Xincheng can be used as a base for advancement, so at this moment, Jiang Hao is not under Qiuzi City, but under Luntai City.
Looking at the earthen city wall more than two zhang high, Jiang Hao said to a general, "Put up my big banner, go to the city to shout, give the other party a pillar of incense time to consider, open the city gate and surrender, everyone is not to blame in the past, if you resist to the end, after the city is broken, kill all the officers above the commander." ”
In ancient wars, siege can be said to be a problem that all generals will encounter, and when they encounter stubborn resistance, many generals will shout out what to slaughter the city after the city is broken, Jiang Hao feels that this sentence is really stupid, isn't this forcing the people in the city to resist to the end.
"Also, let the Qiuci people pick up the sword in their hands, and say that I am here to help the Qiuci people restore the country, and the Qiuci people kill the Shache officers, kill the military candidates to be the military candidates, kill the school captain to be the school captain, and kill the general to be the general."
The guards in the city were originally Shache generals, and the official positions such as captains, military waiters, and team leaders were basically Shache people, and almost all of the soldiers who were in the city were originally Qiuzi people.
Jiang Hao once again played a trick to punish his heart.
"No!"
The general received the order, ran to the city with a team of flag guards, and stopped to shout at a distance beyond the reach of arrows.
Now that Jiang Hao's name has spread in the Western Regions, everyone knows that there is a new Dadu Protector in the Western Regions, who is invincible in his calculations and annihilates the powerful Shache Kingdom in one fell swoop, and now he has to help Qiuzi restore the country.
Now the black flag of the capital is standing under the city, and the black flag of the north wind is fluttering in the wind, and many people are afraid to see it.
The generals sent by Jiang Hao shouted under the city, and after Jiang Hao's order was said, the already tense atmosphere in the city suddenly became more subtle.
Those Shache officers suddenly looked at the turtle soldiers around them, and felt that the swords, guns, bows and arrows in their hands might cut at them at any time.
The general defending the city looked at the black and oppressive army under the city, and felt more and more sad in his heart, he knew that now that the words of the capital protector came out, he was afraid that he would not have the capital to resist, as long as the time came for the army to attack the city, I was afraid that the turtle soldiers in the city would wave their butcher knives at their officers as soon as possible.
Damn it
Your Majesty, don't blame me, I can't resist it.
"Boom~~"
The gate of Luntai was wide open, a group of soldiers came out, and the generals defending the city chose to surrender, and many of those Qiuzi soldiers actually felt pity in their hearts, what a rare opportunity this is, wealth and wealth are in danger, in case they kill a military candidate and captain, then they can be generals.
These Shache people are really cowardly, and they surrender.
Jiang Hao smiled, soldiers are impermanent, water is impermanent! The way of using soldiers is changing!
Jiang Hao has read a lot of military books, and he also likes some of the theories in them, in modern society, he has no chance to participate in such ancient wars, but now that he has the opportunity, he shows it, and suddenly has a very happy feeling.
"Gather the troops and enter the city." Jiang Hao ordered.
......
This side successfully took Luntai City, but it was not so easy on the new city side, Corgi, Rottweiler, Yanqi, Yuli, and Shanguo each led 2,000 soldiers and horses, and a full 10,000 troops arrived at the city.
After calling the battle, the other party refused to open the city.
Corgi opened the bag that Jiang Hao had given before, and after reading it, he asked a military candidate to bring someone to shout again, and the content was exactly the same as what Jiang Hao said in Luntai.
But the general was very stubborn, shouting and scolding at the head of the city, and finally even Jiang Hao scolded him.
"Wow yes yes ~ ~"
"Bastard, I'm so angry, I dare to insult our general is a little white face, I'm going to tear that bastard apart."
"Yes, let's go into the city."
"The destruction of the city is now."
A few guys don't have a good temper, they don't have Jiang Hao's momentum, they don't have his calmness, they get angry when they are stimulated, and they are ready to attack.
"Kill!"
Each of the five sent a thousand people, dismounted and carried the siege ladder to begin the siege on three sides, but the corgi still retained the last shred of reason, and ordered people to shout to the Qiuzi people when attacking the city, and those who killed the generals of the Shache people could get merit.
"Kill!"
A big battle began, the coalition army was violent, and the turtle soldiers at the head of the city were not stupid, how could they work for the Shache people, wielding swords and guns at the head of the city was just pretending, and the only one who fought to the death was the general's 500 personal guards and officers of each team.
During the siege, bows and arrows, rolling wood and stones kept falling down, and from time to time someone fell from the siege ladder, and casualties were inevitable, but it was obvious that the attacking side was like a rainbow, and the defenders were slack, and in less than two quarters of an hour, the coalition army was allowed to attack the city.
The soldiers immediately threw down their weapons and surrendered, and more and more people besieged the defending general and hundreds of his personal guards, I have to say that this general was really brave, and his personal guards were also a group of loyal soldiers, and they fought until the end without a single person.
In this battle, the coalition army lost 1,000 people, wiped out more than 800 Shache people, several generals shouted before, pulled out all the Shache officers, all pressed out of the city and beheaded, the sandy land outside the new city, was stained red with blood, countless years later, the stones in that place are still red.
......
After receiving the news of breaking through the new city, Jiang Hao was very happy, the new city and Luntai City are almost 30 miles away from Qiuzi City, separated from each other, and it is also a city on the Silk Road, the city is wide and rich, and one city is enough to feed 20,000 soldiers.
Now that it occupies two cities, it has formed a flanking attack on the country of Qiuci, and even if the king of Qiuci resists stubbornly, he has become a turtle in the urn, and he can't run if he wants to.
Just when Jiang Hao was happy, Her Majesty came over with a secret letter with a worried look on his face.
That's right
Although Di Linaza is the queen, her current job is mainly to be Jiang Hao's secretary, and at the same time responsible for the secret intelligence network.
Your Majesty, that's how it should be.
"Lang Jun, I received a summons from a secret agent hidden in Cheshi Country, the Huns are reorganizing the army, and at the same time asking Che Shiguo to provide 30,000 people with marching food and grass." Dina said as she handed a piece of letter to Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao took it and looked at it, a sharp glint flashed in his eyes, and said: "I thought that it would be after the winter and I would come into contact with the Huns next year, but now it seems that the Huns are a little impatient." ”
"He is afraid that we will break through Qiuzi, and the more time passes, the more stable our strength will become, and he wants to take advantage of our instability to defeat us."
Queen Dina listened to Jiang Hao's words and said worriedly: "Lang Jun, the Huns are sending troops with all their might, can we stop it." ”
"Sooner or later, it's just a matter of time, since the Huns have chosen now, then let's have a good touch with him."
Jiang Hao stood in front of the map and looked at it, and said after a while: "There are two roads from the Cheshi National Highway Qiuzi, one is to go to Yanqi and Shanguo through Cheshi, and finally to Qiuci, this road is relatively far, and there are many countries that pass through. The second way is to go west to the country of Jimi, through the Tianshan Gorge directly to the territory of Qiuzi. ”
"So what do we do?" Dina asked.
"Decide after scouting."
On the same day, the two golden eagles were sent out by Jiang Hao, flying to the Cheshi country six hundred miles away, two days passed, the two golden eagles came back, Jiang Hao observed the information in the mind of the two golden eagles, and found that the Huns were divided into two ways.
There were about 10,000 people all the way, heading towards the direction of the country, but the king tent of the Xiongnu Youxian King was slowly opened, and more than 20,000 troops marched towards the Yanqi country.
......
A cart with forty wheels, pulled by forty healthy oxen, was a huge tent on top, white leather cloth, golden tent, surrounded by ribbon tassels, the north wind could not stop flying and swaying.
This is the royal tent of King Youxian, it is very wide inside, there is a hall in front, you can usually gather generals, hold military meetings, and there is half of the place in the back, which is the harem of King Youxian, and several of his women live there, waiting for his favor at any time.
The tent was very warm with a brazier, and a table was set up in the hall with beef and wine on the table, and King Youxian was drinking and chatting with a few of his men.
Cutting off a piece of beef tendon with a knife and stuffing it into his mouth, chewing hard, King Youxian said in a cruel voice: "I have long notified Yanqi to make them surrender to pay tribute, but I didn't expect to dare to send soldiers and horses to the Han people. ”
"Tell the sons and daughters, plunder, take back everything that can be plundered, get back horses, cattle, sheep, and grain for military rations, women as they please, and kill men, old people, and children."
"The same is true for Yuli and Shanguo, don't let go of any of them, and don't take the initiative to pay tribute, then I'll take it myself."
After hearing this, those commanders showed excitement on their faces one by one, "Yes, if you don't pay tribute, let's go and get it ourselves, and take it more thoroughly." ”
"Don't worry, my lord, this time it will definitely be able to deter all the small countries that are not convinced."
"The sons and daughters of my subordinates have long wanted women, and with the king's order, those wolf cubs will definitely howl and wield their sabers and snatch everything they can."
Grab and rob, kill and kill......
