Chapter 630 Shiling Pass

Liu Wu never thought that someone would be willing to heat the cold stove even though he was in this state.

Becoming the crown prince has been his dream for many years.

At this time, someone suddenly wanted to support him, which really made him feel excited and unable to control himself.

After a while, Liu Wu gradually regained his consciousness.

He asked slightly confused, "Why is this?"

Everything must have a reason, and only when there is a cause will there be an effect.

It is of course impossible for him to come over for no reason and say that he wants to support him as the crown prince.

Tian Fu smiled brightly and said very cordially, "Your Majesty, the prince's victory is unstoppable, and my sister has no choice. After all, we can only ask the king to be the emperor's younger brother. When the emperor passes the throne in ten thousand years, the king will be the king again."

Make King Jiaodong the crown prince."

"oh"

Liu Wu had a look of understanding on his face.

In his opinion, this is also a reasonable explanation.

After all, Liu Sheng was strong at this time, and other people who coveted the position had almost no hope.

Now it is reasonable and reasonable to unite with each other to find a way out.

If Liu Wu's advisers Gongsun Gui and Yang Sheng were still there, they would immediately see that this was just a trick to use Liu Wu.

The reason is very simple. After experiencing the Yuan Ang incident, Liu Wu had offended all the courtiers and nobles of the Han Dynasty, and his reputation among the people was also very good.

Under such circumstances, it is absolutely impossible for Liu Wu to be appointed as the crown prince.

Even if Liu Qi and Empress Dowager Dou were defeated and supported, they would attract unimaginable opposition.

Since the matter is impossible, what Tian Fu said at this time is naturally a deception to deceive Liu Wu, and its purpose is nothing more than to borrow Liu Wu's name and strength.

Although Liu Wu had a bad reputation, he was still the king and the emperor's brother after all.

The Liang State was extremely wealthy, with not only money but also soldiers and horses.

It's a pity that both Gongsun Gui and Yang Sheng were executed because of Yuan An's incident, taking the blame for Liu Wu.

Because of this incident, no one is willing to work for him anymore.

It can be said that Liu Wu, whose lifelong dream was to become the emperor's younger brother, easily fell into the beautiful scene described by Tian Fu.

It's really not an easy thing to deceive people. The most important thing is to do what they want.

Tian Fu understood this very well, so he firmly grasped Liu Wu's weakness, took advantage of the matter of the emperor's younger brother, and pulled him onto the warship.

"Finally, someone important has come."

After leaving Liu Wu's mansion, Tian Fu on the carriage finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Wu had hundreds of troops inside and outside Chang'an City. More importantly, he had money and was willing to pay for things.

As long as you have sufficient financial resources, you can secretly purchase weapons and weapons, recruit rangers as your wings, and bribe people in key positions.

It is really rare for someone to use Liu Wu's property to do their own things.

Tian Fu on the carriage took out a piece of paper made in Zhongshan and followed the list on the paper to find "Yingyin Marquis Guan Xian, Dou Family Dou Fu"

After the stone ridge was closed, Li Yunze looked quietly at the valley several miles away.

That place used to be the camp of Huyan and Lin's troops. After being attacked by the Han army at night, the whole family was defeated, and even Huyan and Lin's heads became trophies.

In just over ten days, a large group of Huns came again, and they filled up the valley, which was no more than a few miles wide.

Judging from the banners raised by the Huns, it is King Zuoxian of the Huns who has arrived.

"Yu Shan."

Li Yunze nodded and asked the people around him to "pass the order and take the single-level head and promote it to the rank of Marquis of Che."

The pinnacle of the Qin and Han military merit conferring systems was the Marquis of Che.

Historically, Liu She came to power and was renamed Liu Che.

In order to avoid taboos about the name of the emperor, all the princes of Che were changed to liehou.

Considering the status of the Xiongnu Zuoxian King and the Xiongnu Crown Prince, it was a matter of course that his head should be given the title of Marquis of Che.

If it weren't for the old Liu family to no longer grant kings with different surnames, there would be no problem in directly granting the title of king.

The young Yu Dan was obviously impatient, and as a large number of troops were still on their way, he urgently urged his troops to start attacking the city.

There was no need to rush, because the retreat was cut off, and hundreds of thousands of Han troops from all directions were pressing towards Taiyuan County like mountains. There was also Jinyang City inside that was never captured.

Under such embarrassing circumstances, the only way out is to immediately open an escape route and calmly exit outside the wall.

Shiling Pass is the lock that crosses the road that the Huns must pass to return home.

"Sun Tzu said, "When you return to the army, don't contain it; if you surround the army, you must be surrounded; if you are poor, don't force it."

It means that soldiers and horses who are eager to go home should not stop them, as they will choose to fight tooth and nail to get home.

But now, Li Yunze not only had to block it, but also found a way to kill all the invading Huns.

At this time, he had learned that the Huns who invaded were not only the military minister Shan Yu's royal court, but also Yu Shan's Youxian king Wang Ting.

If all these Huns are left behind, the Huns will have their bones broken and their strength will be greatly reduced.

Looking at the densely packed Huns coming from a distance, Li Yunze calmly ordered, "Send an order to all pass passages in Luliang Mountain to strictly guard the walls and clear the fields, and not to allow the Huns to pass through."

"Here."

The Huns seemed to be in dire straits, but Li Yunze was able to sense in advance that they still had a way out.

That is to cross the Luliang Mountains to the west and reach the bank of the river.

On the other side of the river, in Henan, which was still under the control of the Huns, King Youxian's troops were harassing Shangjun in Henan.

If the Huns chose this route to escape, although they would suffer heavy losses along the way, a large part of the living force would still be able to escape.

Li Yunze would not place his hopes on the fact that the Huns did not understand the geographical environment of the Han Dynasty. He had already ordered that no troops should be sent to the passes along the Luliang Mountains. Now he just emphasized it again.

As for Yu Shan's attack at this time, Li Yunze didn't take it seriously.

Although Shiling Pass is dilapidated, the soldiers stationed here are Zhongshan Kingdom soldiers. Do you want to break through and escape?

Go to sleep, everything is there in your dreams.

As early as the late Qin Dynasty, when the Huns took advantage of the chaos in the Middle Kingdom to seize the land of Henan, they obtained a large number of remnants of the pre-Qin Dynasty.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After that, the Han and Hungarians fought for many years and plundered many Han people.

Coupled with the Han people who defected to the Huns, the scientific and technological level of the Huns is actually not much worse than that of the Han people, and they can be said to be second in the world under the Han people.

What they really lack is systematic industrial production capacity.

Large-scale mining, smelting, forging, manufacturing industries and related supporting industries.

The ordinary Xiongnu tribe may not be very good, but at the level of King Zuo Xian, the technical abilities they learned from the Han family are not bad.

Just like at this time, the Huns almost cleared away the woods in the valley and built many siege equipment in preparation for the battle.

There were about two thousand Huns in the lead, pushing a lot of siege equipment forward.

Followed by hundreds of cavalry, responsible for supervising military affairs.

It's not that Yu Shan couldn't find more people, but the section from Gudi to Shilingguan was like a gourd mouth, and the road was too narrow to accommodate too many people.

A warrior on horseback stepped forward, reined in his horse a hundred steps away from Shiling Pass, and shouted toward the pass, "Which general is guarding this place? King Zuo Xian has something to say."

"Ah"

Li Yunze knows this trick very well, isn't it just bribery?

"Ask him." Li Yunze tilted his head and asked Wei Qing behind him, "What price can you offer?"

"Here."

Wei Qing took the order, took two steps forward and came to the back of the female wall, shouting to the Hun cavalry a hundred steps away, "If you have any conditions, just come out!"

The Xiongnu warrior was surprised by Wei Qing's youth, but he quickly responded: "King Zuo Xian has said that as long as the general is willing to surrender, he should lead one of his own as the king. Cattle, sheep and horses, tents and carts, fine wine and beautiful women, gold, silver and gems will be given as much as he wants."

!”

"King Zuo Xian said that as long as the general is willing to surrender, he is willing to become a brother with the general! From then on, outside the Great Wall, one person is inferior and tens of thousands of people are superior!"

This condition must be said to be very high.

Chen Xi, Lu Wan and others who had defected to the Huns were only granted the title of king when they arrived at the Huns.

In terms of status, if you become brothers with King Zuo Xian, you can truly be considered to be in the upper echelons of the Xiongnu.

As for property and supplies, they are not that important.

If the person stationed here is a military prince, a military commander, or even a captain, it is impossible to say that he will really be moved.

But the person stationed here at this time is the King of Zhongshan.

Why do you want to go to the Xiongnu to be under one person when you leave the country of the Han Dynasty?

Wei Qing turned to look at Li Yunze, waiting for the king's instructions on how to respond.

'spit.'

Li Yunze sneered and said, "Tell him that as long as Yu Shan's head is sent over, we will let them go north and leave the fortress."

Needless to say, the negotiations naturally broke down.

After the Huns cavalry left, the siege teams that had been waiting for a long time officially began to attack.

"Kill!" the Huns roared and rushed towards the city wall.

"Let go!" The defenders' crossbowmen fired a volley, and the sharp rain of arrows fell under the city wall, immediately overturning the city wall.

Just like the problem faced by the Huns, the defenders here were unable to deploy all their troops because the pass was too narrow.

The number of crossbowmen that can be deployed on the city's head is no more than a hundred.

The Huns' counterattack here was also very fierce. Their archers were finally able to exert their full strength at close range.

I saw many sharp arrows flying out from among the Huns under the city wall, many of which accurately hit the defender's face.

Especially the crossbowmen who lacked the protection of face armor. From time to time, some people were shot and fell to the ground screaming.

Even the soldiers wearing iron armor and ghost faces were sniped by sharpshooters.

The tribe of King Zuoxian is different from other Xiongnu tribes, its strength is second only to Wang Ting.

Their tribe had many iron arrows and strong bows, which they used to deal with Han soldiers at close range, enough to shoot through ghost faces.

Seeing this scene, Li Yunze frowned slightly, "You have a good look, don't you? Throw the gray bottle."

The so-called gray bottle is to put lime powder in a bottle and use it to attack the enemy in battle so that the enemy can't open his eyes.

More than a hundred gray bottles were thrown down, and lime powder suddenly filled the air, and there were coughing sounds everywhere in the city.

Those Huns sharpshooters who had shown off their prowess before were now screaming and rubbing their eyes, unable to think of shooting arrows anymore.

The lime stuff got in your eyes, so you have to use vegetable oil to clean it.

Especially quicklime, once washed with water, the lime will react with the water and your eyes will be gone.

The first wave of the Huns' offensive was defeated by more than a hundred gray bottles.
