The sun was setting in the west. Seeing that Yunzhong City was still impregnably defended, Mao Dun gave the order to the white squad who was directing the battle in front to withdraw the troops. This was the seventh time that Gu Ke led the 20,000 troops of the Die La tribe to Jiuyuan.

By the end of the day, although the Xiongnu people had begun to slowly become familiar with how to attack the city, because the Qin army at the top of the city was still well-defended, they could remain in a stalemate outside the city, waiting for the Die La tribe to transport food and grass.

With the army's morale greatly boosted, they might be able to break the city in one fell swoop. However, the day shift continued to order people to attack the city every day. Firstly, it was to train the soldiers so that they could be familiar with how to attack the city in the future. Secondly, it was also to provide support to the people in the city.

The Qin army used greater pressure to pave the way for subsequent actions.

After the day shift called back the men and horses, they rode to Maodun's side: "Chanyu, it seems to me that the Qin people are already exhausted. If we attack for ten more days, this Yunzhong City will definitely be destroyed."

Mao Dun said: "The reinforcements from the Qin people will have arrived by then. It is because of your and Ji Du's dissuasion that I did not let the army evacuate this place. You two can't let me down." Having said this, Mao Dun said

The topic changed, "Based on time, the people from the Die La tribe should have captured Jiuyuan and transported food and grass here. Our army only has enough food for three days, and even I have to eat those Central Plains people."

The food is really tasteless in my mouth.”

Looking up at a flying bird flying overhead, Bai Ban said: "It should be as Shanyu thought, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, the food and grass will be sent to us. And the Die La tribe captured the Jiuyuan."

There must be heavy casualties, and then Shan Yuzi will be able to take them all into his account." After saying this, he looked up and saw two birds passing over the heads of the army, heading towards Yunzhong City. Suddenly he seemed to be

Thinking of something, I stared blankly at the walls of Yunzhong City and became stunned.

Modun also followed his gaze and saw the birds in the sky. He couldn't help but lick his lower lips: "I'm really not used to eating those things these days. I'll shoot down some birds and roast them." As he said,

He reached out and took the bow, set up an arrow, and aimed at a few more birds flying over their heads. "It's strange, the weather hasn't warmed up yet, why are there so many flying birds here?" while taking aim.

Mao Dun said casually as he estimated the distance to his prey.

"Yes, there really shouldn't be any birds here in this climate now, and the trees in the city must have been cut down by the city defenders for the purpose of defending the city. Why did they fly into the city in those years?" Mao Dun said

His unintentional words aroused the suspicion of the day shifter, and he realized that this was also the reason why he felt just now. With doubts in his mind, the day shifter immediately raised his bow and arrow.

"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" Two times, Maodun and Baiban shot sharp arrows at the same time, shooting down the two birds that were flying overhead. The other birds flew quickly and cooed.

Entered the city.

"Haha, your archery skills are not weak either." Mao Dun smiled and ordered someone to fetch the two fallen birds. Looking at the two birds with blue-gray feathers, Mao Dun said: "

Very good, I can finally have a good meal today." But as soon as he finished speaking, the day shift had already rushed over and snatched the two birds from the man's hand and looked at them carefully. In Mao Dun's surprised eyes

, the day shift untied two small bamboo tubes from the feet of two pigeons.

"As expected, it seems that the Qin people's methods are becoming more and more sophisticated." While sighing, the day shifter broke the bamboo tube with a knife and took out a thin white cloth from it.

"What is this?" Seeing these things, Mao Dun also forgot about the two pigeons and approached the day shifter.

The white class unfolded the cloth, and saw only a few lines written on it: "The bandits have been defeated, Jiuyuan is safe, and the army will come to rescue soon. Meng Tian" Seeing these words, the white class's face turned livid: "Shan Shan

Therefore, the Diela tribe did not capture Jiuyuan City and was defeated by them. Now the Qin reinforcements are coming to Yunzhong."

"What!?" Moton asked loudly in surprise, "Is this what is written on this thing?"

"Yes, judging from the direction this bird came from, it is obviously a message sent by the Qin people in Jiuyuan. This time we must evacuate here before the Qin people's reinforcements arrive, otherwise they will be attacked by the Qin army once there is a shortage of food.

If you are trapped, it will be difficult to fight back to the grassland." Bai Ban said solemnly. Although he wanted to use the power of the Huns to deal with the Qin people, he did not want to fight such an uncertain battle and risk his own life.

.

After Modu hesitated for a while, he said: "Looking at this situation, we have to retreat."

"I didn't expect that the Qin people would actually think of using this bird to convey messages. I remember that when the Die La tribe attacked Jiuyuan, I saw this bird flying to the west. It was obviously the Qin people in the clouds who were sending messages to Jiuyuan.

People from Jiuyuan passed on the news. If we had discovered this situation earlier, we wouldn't be like this now." Bai Shi said with some regret.

At this moment, Mao Dun fully demonstrated his true nature as a hero, and ignored the regrets of the day squad. He immediately issued an order to prepare to leave, and then summoned all the leaders and generals to his tent.

middle.

"The bandit army has been defeated, Jiuyuan is safe, and the army will come to help soon. Meng Tian" The cloth with these words written on it was placed on the table. Han Xin and others showed relaxed and excited expressions on their faces. They had been guarding for so long.

Finally, the clouds opened and the moon became bright. In order to prevent the carrier pigeons from being caught due to weather conditions or other birds of prey, Qin people always sent several flying pigeons to deliver messages, and more than ten were released at one time to deliver important news.

No one else knew about this method anyway, and the Qin people didn't need to be careful. So even though they shot down two pigeons in the day shift, the news was still known to Han Xin and others in the city.

"I didn't expect General Meng to show up in Jiuyuan City at the right time. This way, when their reinforcements arrive, we can join them in attacking the Huns from both inside and outside. It's great." Meng Yi's face was rarely revealed.

Smile.

Long Qie also said: "Yes, and this time the Xiongnu invaded with hundreds of thousands of people. They obviously used the strength of the whole clan to attack. If we can annihilate them all in one fell swoop, the Xiongnu will not be able to do anything in the past ten years."

Invading our Central Plains again."

When everyone thought that what he said was true, they all laughed. But Han Xin said: "You can't be too happy. Don't forget that the reinforcements haven't arrived yet. We are still outnumbered. We must not be afraid."

A trace of relaxation. Moreover, if the news is leaked and the Huns know that our reinforcements are coming and their troops are defeated, they will probably withdraw immediately. Therefore, we should pay close attention to the movements of the Huns below the city so that we can make decisions.

Plan accordingly." His words made everyone come out of the surprise, and everyone went to where they should go, waiting for the final battle to come.

Fortunately, Han Xin still retained his calmness at this time, so the Huns' move to retreat was not ignored by the Qin soldiers in the city. After hearing the report from the defenders at the top of the city, everyone responded to Han Xin.

He admired them even more. If it hadn't been for him, I might have been able to just watch helplessly when the Huns retreated.

After hearing the news, the Qin army in the city also began to gather. Because there were 60,000 to 70,000 people in the city and they could not fight out from one gate at the same time, they arranged their troops to wait by the other three gates until the Xiongnu army withdrew.

When the news came, the four gates were opened at the same time, and then they surrounded and killed the enemy at the same time, vowing not to let the Huns slip away from their eyes.

When it darkened completely, the Xiongnu army slowly moved northeastward under the leadership of their respective leaders or generals. Their movements were so gentle, for fear of alarming the Qin people in the city. But when they turned around, they

When they were about to fully enter the retreat state, with the sound of a drum, the four gates of Yunzhong City that had been closed for more than half a month were opened at the same time. More than 60,000 Qin troops shouted loudly and rushed out. They were divided into left and center.

The three groups on the right fought towards the Huns army.

The Huns, who had no precautions at all and were bent on retreating, immediately lost their sense of proportion when they saw the Qin army rushing out. The men and horses who stayed at the back suffered first, and the Qin troops who came up were robbed and killed.

The vanguard of the army was killed and fell on its back. For a time, the loud screams of the Huns and the shouts of the Qin soldiers were intertwined, which further boosted the morale of the Qin soldiers and made the Huns panic.

Seeing the Qin army charging forward, Mao Dun knew that it was impossible to leave safely today. And if he blindly evaded or escaped, he would only continue to increase his casualties, which would inevitably greatly increase the number of Qin soldiers.

After thinking about this, Mao Dun knew that the only option was to turn back and fight the pursuing Qin army. He immediately ordered the army to turn around and face the attacking Qin army.

Since there is no way to escape, let's have a good fight with the Qin army. After all, our own strength is still higher than that of the Qin army. The white squad urged the horses to lead the men back to kill, thinking so in their hearts, this is also the best way to kill them all.

Thoughts of the Huns.

The Qin army only thought that they were chasing death and chasing north, thinking that since the Huns were determined to retreat, they would no longer have the ability to fight back. However, unexpectedly, this forced out the fierce nature of the Huns. The Huns turned back and killed them.

The cavalry is particularly powerful, and one person often dares to confront three Qin people. The Qin people's cavalry used to be able to fight against the Huns' cavalry with the help of stirrups, but now they have changed because the Huns also have this thing.

It was even more powerful, so that the chasing party became a little unable to resist. If the Qin army had not attacked from three sides this time, and the Huns turned around to resist the enemy, I am afraid that the Qin army would have been defeated by now.

However, the defeat of the Qin army also fell in the eyes of Mao Dun and Bai Ban. They also realized that this was a good opportunity, a good opportunity to enter Yunzhong City.
