Chapter 75 Critical Situation

"shoot arrows"

The commander of the hundred cavalry of the Huns gave the order.

The Huns shot the arrows in their hands together.

The scene of nearly a hundred bows firing simultaneously is quite spectacular!

"Lower your head!" "Raise your shield!"

Following an exclamation, it started to rain sparsely from the sky, a rain of arrows.

Dong-dong-dong, this is the sound of arrow clusters hitting the shield.

When Pan Hong was hanging out in Chang'an, he once imagined the scene of himself going to the battlefield, and he was always full of pride at that time.

But I didn't expect that when I really encountered this day, I found that there was no pride in war, but only the desire for life.

There is no beauty in war, only blood and death.

Although the Huns kept firing arrows, everyone gradually relaxed.

Due to years of war and the empire's economic blockade against the Huns, the Huns' equipment has become worse and worse.

In fact, not only the Xiongnu, but also the Han Dynasty. After decades of war, everyone has almost become a beggar.

The Huns' fangs and stone arrow clusters were not a big threat to the armored Han army.

It is difficult for these arrows to penetrate the Han army's armor. As long as they are not hit in vital parts, they will not cause serious damage.

On the contrary, the Huns' leather armor was like paper when hit by the Han army's bows and arrows. Once they were shot, they would be seriously injured even if they were not dead.

The Huns soon realized this, but they did not stop the arrows.

Their main purpose was to suppress the Han army's counterattack so that others could get closer to the Dunbao.

Although the Huns continued to shoot arrows, the garrison soldiers continued to fire back at the attacking Huns through the shooting holes set in the beacons.

Coupled with the help of various traps outside the fort, the Huns were actually blocked outside the fort for a while.

Seeing that the attack was thwarted, the Huns' cavalry commander roared angrily.

Under his coercion, the Huns launched another attack on the Dunbao.

Fortunately, everyone was protected by the female wall, and the casualties caused to the Huns from being condescending were not small. In the blink of an eye, more than ten Huns had died under the arrows of the Han army.

"The Huns have already suffered about ten casualties. If they kill more, they may hesitate to withdraw," Han Ye shouted.

Unlike the Han people, the Huns did not have a strict and unified military merit system, so the Huns' ability to withstand casualties was also lower.

Moreover, the status of each little king is completely determined by the strength in hand. Under normal circumstances, if the casualties exceed one level, the troops will retreat.

Now the attacking Huns have suffered one level of casualties. According to past experience, it is time for the Huns to retreat.

Unfortunately, this time they were wrong. Instead of retreating, the Huns were preparing to intensify their attack.

Fortunately, at this time, the Huns' scouts suddenly ran in front of their prince Tu Qi's horse.

"Prince, Xuanwei Fort has been captured, but King Loulan sent people for help. The Han army in the city and the nobles close to the Han people defeated King Loulan's army."

Tu Qi cursed: "What a waste!"

"This small Dunbao will be handed over to Dasu. The rest of you will follow me and kill all the Han people in Loulan."

Soon the large group of Huns headed to Loulan City under the leadership of Tu Qi. After all, Loulan City was the most important.

After Tu Qi left, the only one left to continue attacking Dunbao was the Huns' cavalry of a hundred.

Pan Hong and others did not feel happy after the Huns' brigade left. Instead, they began to worry about the safety of Loulan City.

At this time, the Huns who were attacking Dunbao from the front also paused.

"The Huns just gave up?"

When everyone is really confused.

A soldier suddenly shouted, "What's wrong, the Huns are coming in from the south."

It turned out that the dozens of Huns on the front were just a bluff, and the real attack came from the south.

"Second and third sons, get ready!"

Pan Hong shouted, the most dangerous time has come...

After the previous period of fighting, the Huns also discovered the problem of insufficient strength of the Han army. The Han army was simply unable to defend the entire fort.

"The Huns have entered the fort!" Gao Yuan shouted.

"What should I do now?" Han Ye asked

Pan Hong gritted his teeth and said, we must not let the Huns easily surround us, otherwise they would just set fire to it and it would be over.

"Hahaha!"

"It seems that today is our death day!"

Han Ye chuckled and said, "Just die, if you die, a bird will look up to the sky, and you will not die for tens of thousands of years!"

"Sir, I'm afraid we'll all have to die in this little fortress next!"

Pan Hong laughed and said: "Anyway, you will die sooner or later. It is better to die on the battlefield than to die in bed due to illness!"

"Hahaha!"

Han Ye also laughed.

"Two or three sons, are you afraid?"

"Not afraid?"

"In this case, the second and third sons are ready, let's fight out!"

Han Ye hit the sword and shield with a wave of his hand and said, "Two or three sons, I will be at the front in a moment, you can follow me..."

Everyone nodded.

Pan Hong had already removed the things blocking the door.

At this moment, the Huns' voices were heard outside the door.

Han Ye stood up fiercely, "Second and third sons, kill them!"

Then he opened the door and rushed out.

At this time, two Huns were outside the door. They did not expect that the Han army inside Fengsui would dare to take the initiative to attack.

When they saw the Han troops rushing out, they were both stunned.

A Huns retreated reflexively, but was blocked by his companions.

Taking this opportunity, Han Ye raised his shield and bumped into him, then stabbed him in the stomach with the long knife in his hand.

The Huns died in Han Ye's hands before he could react.

Han Ye then turned around and rushed towards another Huns.

The Huns slashed Han Ye's body with a knife, but it was blocked by the thick armor.

Han Ye slashed the second Huns to the ground with his long sword.

Only then did the other Huns around him react and wanted to surround and kill Han Ye.

But at this time, Pan Hong and others had already rushed out.

He fired the crossbow fiercely at the Huns.

Several Huns were unable to escape and fell to the ground after being hit by arrows.

After everyone fired the crossbow arrows, they threw away the crossbows, drew their swords, and followed Han Ye to kill the rest of the Huns.

The momentum of the crowd suddenly overwhelmed the Huns.

The Huns who entered the fort retreated continuously, and were driven out of the fort again by a few Han soldiers.

The Hun Commander Baiqi, who was watching the battle from a distance, screamed angrily when he saw that his soldiers were driven out by the Han army.

Then he personally brought the people and horses to kill him.

The Huns who had been feinting to attack from the front also continued to fire arrows.

Everyone who lost the protection of the beacon was hit by arrows one after another.

Although protected by armor, three people were still killed by the Huns' arrows.

"I can't stand it anymore!"

"Second and Third Sons, return to Fengsui!"

Everyone had no choice but to retreat to the beacon.

After a while, the Huns invaded the Dunbao again.

When the Huns approached Fengsui again, Pan Hong and others repeated their old tricks and charged out again.

Unfortunately, this time the Huns were well prepared and did not cause much damage to the Huns.

Instead, Gao Yuan and Hu Kang were shot dead at the beacon gate by the Huns.

Everyone had no choice but to retreat to the beacon fire again, and the Huns took advantage of the situation and surrounded them.
