On a dark moonlit night with high winds, people are killing people and setting fires.
Jia Yin and Beigong Chun spent a lot of money to recruit more than a thousand warriors. Except for a small number of soldiers from the Forbidden Army, Yuzhou, and Yanzhou armies, the vast majority came from the 5,000 Liangzhou soldiers.
After the selection was completed, we simply practiced together for half a day. In the evening, we ate some water, then recharged our batteries and waited for the time to attack.
After resting until midnight, everyone was woken up by the officer, ate some water, checked the equipment, and after adjusting, set off at half past midnight.
Outside Ximing Gate, a layer of mist actually appeared.
Jia Yin was overjoyed when he saw it and said: "God is really helping me."
More than a thousand soldiers were also happy and their morale was greatly boosted.
"Mount the horse." Bei Gongchun gave the order without any expression on his face.
Everyone mounted their horses one after another and rushed straight to Zhang Fang's old base.
The horse's hooves are covered with cloth, but it only slightly reduces the sound of the hoofs, and it is impossible to completely isolate the vibration and sound.
Along the way, we encountered several groups of Huns scouts, secret sentries and even rangers.
They all looked at the Jin army with surprise, shock and even fear in their eyes.
No one paid attention to them, and everyone hurried on their way straight to the Huns camp.
The camps are one after another, densely packed and endless.
According to the direction they found during the day, they headed straight for the largest one.
"Dismount!" Bei Gongchun ordered.
More than a thousand people remained silent and dismounted one after another.
Someone came over to collect the horses, and most people began to check the equipment.
"There are no pavilions, no barriers, no barriers, no trenches, the Huns are..." Jia Yin couldn't help laughing.
Generally speaking, there will be several small-scale pavilions set up outside the camp, which can accommodate dozens to hundreds of people. They echo the main camp and can also serve as a warning.
Rejecting horses can prevent the cavalry from approaching, destroy the camp wall, and even hinder the infantry, providing an excellent shooting opportunity for the archers on the camp wall.
Not to mention trenches, which are equivalent to moats and are of great use.
The Huns didn't do this. Are they careless, lazy or just don't understand? They must be careless.
Bei Gongchun also had a rare smile on his face.
The thieves underestimated the enemy so much. This is to give them credit.
But then again, if the Huns have perfect facilities, complete defenses, and are particularly vigilant, how can they succeed? In ancient times, when generals achieved unparalleled achievements, there was always some reason. Either the opponent was weak or the opponent was stupid.
, or luck.
Today I will teach the Huns an unforgettable lesson.
After a while, there was movement in the Huns camp. Perhaps it was the scouts who rushed back in a hurry to report the news.
Jia Yin and Bei Gongchun no longer hesitated and ordered the attack.
Several long ladders were put up on the wall without any obstruction, and the warriors jumped up.
Several Huns panted and climbed up to the camp wall, only to see more than a dozen big men with fleshy faces and fierce eyes.
The big man didn't talk nonsense at all, he struck quickly with his sword, and his screams pierced the night sky.
As if pressing the fast forward button, everyone moved faster.
Outside the camp gate, the gate collapsed to the ground under the blows of swords and axes.
Dozens of people held large shields in front, followed closely by halberdiers, archers, sword and axemen, hook and sickle spearmen, poleaxemen, and even knights charging on horseback...
The Huns were exhausted physically and mentally after days of plundering and attacking the city. When the Jin army rushed in at night, they were panicked and yelled.
Just put yourself in their shoes and you will know that you are in a corner of the camp, and when you are sleeping, you are woken up by Pao Ze, and then someone tells you that the enemy has attacked the camp at night and has rushed into the camp.
When you heard this, you panicked and subconsciously wanted to run away - at least you couldn't stay in the tent any longer.
At this time, waves of louder killing sounds rushed towards us outside.
There was the sound of drums and horns everywhere, and we had no idea how many enemy troops were coming and whether our troops who were on duty at night could withstand it.
So you and the others came out of the camp, and what you saw was dazzling firelight and chaotic crowds everywhere - just like you, they were awakened from their sleep, without any equipment or armor, and their faces were panicked and at a loss.
The officers were shouting at the top of their lungs and ordered the soldiers to move closer to him and move forward to defend themselves against the enemy. However, an arrow flew out of the darkness and hit the front door. The officer fell down and the soldiers dispersed in a rush.
An officer successfully gathered a group of soldiers and moved forward with the intention of blocking the enemy's offensive. However, the camp was full of people running around, looking anxious and shouting, which greatly hindered the counterattack.
There were even two groups of people who were eager to kill the enemy and bumped into each other in a hurry. In the dark, they couldn't distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, and they were nervous, so they killed themselves first.
How much courage do you have left when you see these chaos?
At least, Hu Yanhao was so scared that his hands and feet were cold and he didn't have much courage anymore.
After he was woken up, he hurriedly put on a single coat and ran away without any intention of staying to turn the tide.
"Don't leave Hu Yanhao!" A neat roar sounded in the distance.
Hu Yanhao climbed on the horse's back and turned around to take a look, only to see a large group of Jin soldiers advancing towards the wall under the light of the fire.
They fired volleys of bows and crossbows, stabbed with spears, and waved broadswords. They killed people walking or running when they encountered them, which was extremely efficient.
The Huns soldiers seemed to be afraid of them and retreated one after another, away from such murderous gods.
"General, it's urgent. Let's go quickly!" the soldiers urged him again and again, looking anxious.
"Okay." Hu Yanhao stopped talking nonsense, patted the horse and left.
It is said that "the grassland is a precious species". Huyan was a noble of the Xiongnu and a descendant of Liu Han. He could not die here.
As long as he escapes back, the King of Chu and the Emperor will not blame him, and will even comfort him - to put it harshly, the Emperor and the King of Chu can kill the clan, but they have to hesitate to kill nobles like the Huyan clan who have tribes and territories.
.
As long as he escapes, he will still be a high-ranking general conquering prisoners, enjoying endless wealth and wealth.
He can't die!
"Hu Yanhao is there, kill him!" Another roar came from the distance.
Hu Yanhao was frightened and he quickly clamped his horse's belly. However, he was blocked by a group of broken soldiers after he had only taken ten steps.
The soldiers were so angry that they drew their swords and chopped at them while shouting and cursing.
The defeated soldiers screamed and scurried away. However, there were also some who were vicious and wanted to help others out of desperation, so they directly fought back.
Huyan's soldiers were caught off guard and several of them lay down on the spot.
Fortunately, the soldiers were well-equipped with armor, sophisticated equipment, and very good skills. After reacting, they came down with their swords and chopped down several Muzi Muzi who dared to resist, and then surrounded Hu Yanhao and moved forward.
"Everyone will be rewarded greatly after we return." The night wind was cold, and Hu Yanhao, who was wearing only a single coat, was shivering from the cold, but he still squeezed out a smile and said to the soldiers: "The wives and daughters of the captured Central Plains scholars,
Let you and others choose. Money, silk, gold and utensils. Each person will be rewarded with two carts and a mansion..."
After hearing this, the soldiers' morale was greatly boosted, the wind was blowing under their feet, and their strength increased sharply. At this time, even if Hu Yanhao didn't have a horse, everyone would take him out, otherwise who would they ask to receive the reward?
But God seemed to be against them, and a group of broken soldiers came in front, blocking the way.
Hu Yanhao was so angry that he cursed loudly.
These defeated soldiers are really confused!
If you want to run, don't run in this direction. Are you rushing to die?
He subconsciously turned his head and glanced, but saw that the Jin soldiers were already within a hundred steps, and he suddenly became anxious: "You dog slave, don't block the way, get out of my way!"
"Buzz!" A burst of arrows flew from behind.
The distance was far, and it was still a projectile. It was not very powerful, but it was easy to survive. Hu Yanhao had no armor on his body and was hit by an arrow directly in the back.
The horse seemed to have been hit by an arrow, and the man stood up in pain, threw Hu Yanhao off the horse's back, and stepped on him several times.
The soldiers were horrified and helped him up, then ran forward with him on their backs.
"Kill Hu Yanhao!" The killing sound got closer and closer.
Hu Yanhao's mouth was bleeding, his forehead was sweating, and his legs were drooping there. He was suffering from heartbreaking pain - when he fell off the horse, his calf was broken by someone who didn't know who stepped on it.
The soldier holding him was panting like an ox, but still did not give up. This made Hu Yanhao burst into tears, and he must be rewarded heavily when he returned.
Another burst of arrows struck.
One of the soldiers holding him groaned and fell to the ground. Hu Yanhao also fell down with a crash. His injured leg was pinned and he screamed suddenly.
The sound of chaotic footsteps suddenly sounded behind him.
Hu Yanhao turned around and was about to speak when he saw a big ax falling from the sky and hitting his neck hard.
Blood spurted out.
Hu Yanhao, general of Liu Han's conquest, was beheaded by the formation!
****
The news reached Liu Cong's camp outside Guangmo Gate that night.
General Longxiang Liu Yao, who was also stationed in the west of Luoyang City, led his troops to rescue that night, but failed to intercept the Jin army.
The news was delivered by someone he sent.
As soon as Liu Cong got up from the warm bed, he already felt a chill. Then when he heard the news of Hu Yanhao's defeat and death, he suddenly felt a basin of ice water falling on his head, and the chill was biting.
Liu Li, the king of Anyang, and Hu Yanlang, the champion general, came hand in hand. When they saw Liu Cong's expression, they immediately slowed down their movements, took a futon lightly, and sat cross-legged.
"I won't leave!" Liu Cong slapped the desk with anger.
Liu Li and Hu Yanlang looked at each other. They haven't said anything yet? Why can't they leave? Who is King Chu talking to?
As if realizing his gaffe, Liu Cong calmed down and said: "It's just a small setback, and the loss is only a few thousand troops. If the Jin people want to force me to retreat by some sneaky means, it is pure wishful thinking!"
That’s it! Only then did Liu Li and Hu Yanlang catch up with Liu Cong’s brain circuit.
"Does the Grand Governor have any strategy for destroying the city?" Hu Yanlang asked.
Liu Cong was stunned by the question.
As soon as Hu Yanlang saw him, he knew that King Chu's old habit had returned.
He is very competitive and has a stubborn temper, and he will not give up until he regains his position. He was sick once in Hongnong before, and now he is here again?
He has decided to go to Pingyang soon and ask the emperor to order the withdrawal of troops.
We can't capture the city, we don't have enough food, a general died tonight, and our morale is low. Why should we fight?
"Grand Governor, I heard that there is a temple in Songshan Mountain, which is very efficacious. Maybe you can go up the mountain to pray, it will definitely be useful." Liu Li came up with an idea and worshiped the great god!
"Captain can't." Hearing this, Hu Yanlang immediately admonished: "There is Jin Bingwu Fort on Songshan Mountain, and its general Mi Zhi is the son of Sili Colonel Mi Huang. He goes up the mountain to worship the gods, and it is very dangerous to bring more followers with him.
How can the commander-in-chief go to the dangerous place personally because he is concerned about the safety of the army?"
When Liu Cong heard this, he nodded and said, "Then I won't go."
Then, he stood up and said: "Tomorrow we will reorganize our troops and attack Guangmomen. I will personally supervise the battle. This battle will not be won unless we win!"
Liu Li and Hu Yanlang were about to say something, but they saw Liu Cong wave his hand and said: "General Da Sikong has led an infantry of one hundred thousand and rushed here with provisions and equipment. Luoyang will fight sooner or later. You and I have no more words to say!"
Chapter completed!
