Five hundred and seventieth chapters strategy of defending the city
"What? No! Absolutely not!" In the formation of the United Army outside the city, Yue Ji shook his head like a twang drum and shouted loudly: "Why do we have to let us Qiang warriors take the lead if we want to attack the city?
No! If we want to fight, the Huns must join us Qiang warriors together! Don’t even think about following behind and taking advantage!”
Huchuquan snorted coldly and said: "Idiot! Now it's a siege war! Our Xiongnu warriors are all cavalry. When have you ever seen cavalry used to attack a city?"
"Uh!" Yueji was speechless at being blocked by Huchuquan. After hesitating for a long time, Yueji still refused to let go and shouted loudly: "Then you can just ask your soldiers to dismount! Don't you always
Are you bragging about how powerful your Huns warriors are? Is it possible that you Huns are just good at sitting on horses? When you get off the horses, you all become weaklings?"
"What did you say!" "Damn it! Say it again if you dare!"
Yueji's words aroused the anger of the Hun generals behind Huchuquan. They all drew their sabers, rushed up, and shouted and cursed at Yueji. But Yueji did not dare to show weakness.
A group of Qiang generals headed by Yue Ji also drew their weapons one after another, and under the leadership of Yue Ji, they quarreled with the Huns.
"Tsk!" Seeing this scene in front of him, Wang Yun suddenly felt a headache. The Qiang people and the Huns were both arrogant people. Along the way, they refused to obey anyone. Just to maintain peace between the two sides,
This consumed a lot of Wang Yun's energy. Now that a war was about to begin, the two sides actually started arguing again. Wang Yun frowned tightly, stepped forward, blocked the two sides, and shouted loudly: "Okay
!You all should stop arguing! We should focus on important things now! Important things should be important now!"
But the Xiongnu generals and Qiang generals who had become more and more noisy could still listen to Wang Yun's words. Even Huchuquan, who had always been calm, had a gloomy face at the moment, with the veins on his forehead jumping up and down, and holding one hand tightly.
Holding the hilt of the sword, he was ready to draw the sword at any time. Although Huchuquan was much calmer than other Huns, the Huns were born to be brave and ruthless, and Huchuquan was better than other Huns.
Some, but this is also very limited.
Seeing the quarrel between the two parties getting more and more fierce, Wang Yun became angry and rushed to Yue Ji. With a flick of his old arm, he grabbed Yue Ji's collar and shouted loudly: "Bastard! I said it! Let's do it!"
Shut up! Do you hear me?"
The scholar usually didn't show off his power, but this one was quite terrifying. Yue Ji and other Qiang generals were also shocked by Wang Yun's sudden outburst and did not dare to say a word. Wang Yun's face turned red and he threw him away.
He opened Yue Ji's collar and shouted: "Listen! Your king said it in front of you before! You have to obey me in everything! Don't you remember? Or do you want to disobey you?
Your Majesty's will?" Wang Yun simply moved the Qiang king Cheliji out. Only with Cheliji could he possibly be able to suppress these rebellious Qiang generals.
Not to mention, Cheliji's name was really useful. The Qiang generals immediately did not dare to speak. After finishing dealing with this side, Wang Yun turned to look at the Xiongnu side again, staring at a pair of red eyes, facing
Huchuquan just shouted: "Great Khan! Can't you still see it? Things have developed to this point! Is there any way for you to turn back? If we fail in the end, do you think that Luo Yang in anger will let you Xiongnu go?
Really? Don’t forget the catastrophe! You don’t know what kind of enemy Luo Yang is to you Huns, right?”
What Wang Yun said was that a few years ago, in order to stabilize the rear, Luo Yang sent Huang Zhong to fight in the north and south. First, he drove the Huns completely to the grasslands outside the Great Wall, and then beat the southern barbarians into submission. In that battle, Huang Zhong
In order to establish their prestige, they killed the Huns extremely brutally! Even Huchuquan’s nephew and the son of the former Chan Yuluofu died tragically under Huang Zhong’s sword! Huchuquan still remembers that battle to this day.
Still fresh and unforgettable!
When Wang Yun mentioned the battle that year, Hu Chuquan's face didn't look good, and the Hun generals behind him also fell silent and looked at each other. Seeing that both sides had calmed down, Wang Yun then
Taking a deep breath, suppressing the anger in his heart, he turned to Yue Ji and said: "General Yue Ji! The current Longxi City must rely on the ability of the Qiang warriors to break through! The decision we just made was not a conspiracy.
You may be a Qiang or something! You must also understand that only by conquering Longxi City can you Qiang people have a chance to succeed! Are you Qiang people willing to live a migrating life living in the west? Don’t you Qiang people not want to enjoy the colorful world? "
Wang Yun's words attracted Yue Ji step by step. When he thought of the inexhaustible treasures of the Han people and the few beautiful Han women he had captured before, Yue Ji's breathing became heavier and heavier. Finally, he raised his head suddenly,
He hummed to Wang Yun: "Okay! I will listen to you this time! But don't let me know that you are lying to me! Otherwise, I will make you live or die! Sons! Let's go! Let's rush
!”
Yue Ji gave an order, and under the leadership of Yue Ji, countless Qiang soldiers began to charge towards Longxi City in the distance. Seeing that the Qiang army was finally dispatched, Wang Yun also breathed a long sigh of relief and turned around.
He turned to Huchuquan and said, "We can't take it lightly. Why don't you let your soldiers and horses stand guard around Longxi City to guard against reinforcements from the Western Qin Dynasty!" Huchuquan nodded and agreed to Wang Yun's suggestion.
With a wave of his hand, a military order was issued.
Let's say that Yue Ji led the Qiang army towards Longxi City, but when faced with the arrows flying down from the top of the city, Yue Ji had no intention of resisting and ordered the Qiang soldiers to rush forward like this! On top of the city
There are only four thousand people at most, and there are only a few hundred archers. Even if these archers are good, several rounds of arrow rain will not hurt many people!
The Qiang soldiers rushed to the city wall in one breath, holding their swords between their teeth, and began to climb the city wall! All the Qiang soldiers were good mountain climbers. To climb the city wall, there was no need for things like ladders. All they saw was those
The Qiang soldiers were like spiders, clinging to the city wall and quickly crawling toward the top of the city. Their speed was no slower than climbing a ladder!
Seeing that the Qiang soldiers who climbed the fastest were almost climbing to the top of the city, before that, the defenders on the top of the city didn't seem to have any means of defense. They just kept smashing debris down. But this level of attack
, unable to hinder those nimble Qiang soldiers at all, more and more Qiang soldiers climbed up the city wall. The entire city wall was densely packed with human figures!
On the top of the city, looking at the situation on the city wall, Deng Dang and Jiang Ji looked at each other. Jiang Ji nodded hard at Deng Dang and said, "Uncle He! It's time! Let's do it!"
"Okay!" Deng Dang shouted and waved his hand behind him. At this time, a row of soldiers stood behind them, each carrying a big jar, and quickly walked to the female wall. They drank one after another.
With a sound, the big jars were turned over in one breath, and a thick black water-like substance was poured out of the big jar. It flowed down along the city wall from the top of the city! Soon, the black water-like substance poured out
It covered the entire city wall, and when this water-like flow reached in front of the Qiang soldiers, the Qiang soldiers who had been firmly attached to the city wall fell down one by one as if they had been cast by magical magic!
"What, what's going on?" All the Qiang soldiers who had climbed all over the city wall actually fell down. The luckier ones were those soldiers who had just started to climb. At most, they fell. And those who had already climbed very far
The taller soldiers were in bad luck! If they fell from the high city wall, they would be smashed into pieces! Yue Ji looked ahead with disbelief. These soldiers under him, even if they could climb
You won't fall off the steepest cliff, so how come you can't even climb up the city wall? What the hell is this!
"General! General!" A deputy general ran quickly in front of Yue Ji. His hands were dark and covered with that black water-like substance. The deputy general ran in front of Yue Ji, breathing heavily.
Angry, he shouted: "No! It's oil! The city walls are all covered with kerosene!"
"Kerosene?" Yue Ji was startled, and stared at the sticky watery substance on the hands of the general with wide eyes. He could not help but shiver all over his body. He raised his head and looked at the top of the city. If he didn't look at it, he wouldn't know.
This sight shocked Yue Ji! On the top of the city, the archers of the defenders were all holding bows and arrows, aiming towards the city wall, and the long bows on their bows were
, turned out to be ignited rockets!
"Oops! They want to use fire! Hurry! Retreat quickly!" Yueji was selected by Cheliji as the general of the Qiang people. Although he was a bit impulsive, he still knew some common sense about fighting. So when Yueji learned that those
The city wall was covered with kerosene, and when I saw the dots of fire on the top of the city, I suddenly understood everything and hurriedly shouted loudly.
It's just that Yue Ji realized now that it was too late. On top of the city, Deng Dang's eyes flashed coldly. With a wave of his hand, hundreds of rockets flew down on the city wall in an arc formed by fire.
He dropped into the kerosene that had gathered into a small puddle. The debris dropped by the defenders before were actually flammable materials such as strips of cloth and broken boards. Together with the kerosene next to it, the rocket dropped
After that, flames suddenly shot into the sky, and a raging fire ignited under the city wall of Longxi City!
Countless screams rang out under the city wall. The Qiang soldiers who had been frantically charging at the city wall were now trapped in a sea of fire. Fortunately, Yueji gave the order in time, most of the Qiang soldiers still pulled out of the sea of fire, but even if
Even so, at least a thousand Qiang soldiers died tragically in the flames under the city wall!
