Three-foot giant arrows were fired round after round, and kerosene bombs were thrown continuously. Occasionally, the Tuoba cavalry broke out of the encirclement and were immediately shot by the crossbowmen arranged in the ballista room. Some people also forcibly turned their horses' heads back.

They fled, but with only the chaotic formation and crude equipment, they could not break through the encircling Qin cavalry. At best, they were just a different way to die.

This was the second massacre in one day. However, the side of the massacre became the massacred.

Thick smoke billowed in the sky, blood flowed on the ground, corpses were everywhere, and the air was filled with a fishy and unpleasant burnt smell. Xun Guanniang, Yu Wenjun and other women all showed unbearable expressions.

Yu Wenjun turned around and sighed: "These people died unjustly. They came to take over Bingzhou happily, but they didn't expect that it was a complete trap. They are quite innocent."

Yunfeng nodded and said: "You are right. I feel very uncomfortable in my heart. However, for the long-term stability of our Qin country and for the peace and tranquility of the people in the Central Plains, this is a last resort! After destroying the Wei family,

The Tuoba tribe will inevitably fall into chaos again. In our Qin country, there is no

Before his ability conquered Mobei, Guhui watched from the sidelines. Once the Tuoba tribe showed a tendency to unify, they immediately sent out light cavalry to attack thousands of miles away, killing his leader and not giving him any chance to unify. Until a few years later, there was

Once you have the ability, send out a large army to conquer and completely eliminate the disaster!"

All the girls secretly sighed. From a moral point of view, the Tuoba family was tricked into committing suicide. They were innocent. However, from a political point of view, there has never been such a thing as morality. Some were just the law of the jungle and the strong.

According to the law of the jungle, the Tuoba clan is not as powerful as Qin. Then they can only accept the fate of being slaughtered.

There's nothing to complain about. To use Yunfeng's mantra that he often talks about, it's just that they were born in the wrong child!

'I hope they can have a good pregnancy in their next life and become Qin people...' The women prayed silently in their hearts for the souls of the Tuoba family who died unjustly. Even Xun Guanniang, who was only a thin line away from breaking the void, could faintly

Yueyue felt that the soaring resentment at the front of the valley made the flying snowflakes tighten in waves!

Everyone was silent, but Yu Wenjun looked at Liu Yueru with a strange expression, and then he hesitated and said: "General, the tribes on the prairie are constantly rotating. Even if the Tuoba clan is destroyed, there will be others in the future.

If the tribe emerges, then what if they die?"

To be honest, Yunfeng was also puzzled. On the prairie, there were Huns first and then Tuoba. After Tuoba invaded the Central Plains, they came to Rouran, and Rouran was replaced by Turks. Then there were Khitan, Jurchen, and Mongolia.

When the races that really pose a serious threat to the Central Plains Dynasty come from, where do these tribes come from? Just like cutting leeks, one crop after another comes out, and they cannot be killed!

Only with the development of modern science and technology can cavalry completely become a thing of the past, and the grassland peoples will lose their threat. However, judging from the current situation of Qin, it will take at least a hundred years before the buds of the industrial revolution are possible.

Yunfeng said helplessly: "The key is to constantly strive for self-improvement and not give any opportunity to foreign enemies. Moreover, any race has a process from weak to strong. In the future, I will establish a method of clearing grass and grain, and the frontier cavalry will regularly use small groups to

The troops patrol the grassland. Once they find a tribe moving in, they immediately summon the army to kill them! This grassland, before our Qin State is unable to occupy it, would rather be overgrown with weeds, and no one is allowed to move here!"

"This..." Including the guards, everyone was dumbfounded. How overbearing? You don't want to let others use it if you don't need it! However, after thinking about it, this is indeed a way to relieve the border troubles.

way.

When it comes to hunting tigers, it is natural that the little tigers are easy to fight. Although the little tigers do not hurt people, it does not mean that they will not hurt people when they grow up. If they are not removed, tigers will one day become a problem!

Yunfeng smiled slightly and glanced across everyone's faces one by one. Seeing that they seemed to have some understanding, he looked back at the Senluo Hell in front of him.

The second massacre that followed lasted from noon to sunset. The two massacres included the Tuoba clan's camp that Murong Tuyan attacked. A total of 80,000 Jie soldiers and nearly 60,000 Tuoba clan were killed, a total of nearly ten thousand people.

Forty thousand people, they are all the most important men in the tribe. With their deaths, these two races that were already in decline did not hesitate to add insult to injury, and the Zhao country was even more precarious.

Yunfeng had promised to bury the Wei family generously, but there was no way to find the charred corpses all over the ground, so he had to say sorry in his heart.

The Qin army stationed in Lu County for five days and spent a good time in the new year. On the fifth day of the first lunar month, Yunfeng assigned Yao Yisheng to lead the Qiang army headquarters with 20,000 infantry. They successively recruited and surrendered to attack the remaining counties in Bingzhou until they captured Yanmen.

There are five counties and one country in Bingzhou, totaling 45 counties. Although Yunfeng has successively annihilated the main forces of Jie Zhao and Tuoba, it can only barely occupy Shangdang. There are still Leping County, Xihe County, Taiyuan County, Xinxing County and

Yanmen County is not under the control of the Qin State and needs to be taken down as soon as possible. As for Pingyang County, which passes through Puban all the way, it actually belongs to Sizhou, including Xiangguo. Although it is located in Hebei, it does not belong to Jizhou and still belongs to Sizhou.

On the day after Yao Yisheng went north, Yunfeng led a total of 90,000 people including personal guards, craftsmen, and female medical soldiers to set off from Lu County and headed for Hebei on the other side of Taihang.

Shangdang has Shiyan Pass, Hu Pass and Tianjing Pass. The three passes originally had 100,000 garrison troops. Half of them were transferred to Bingzhou to attack the Tuoba clan, so there were still 50,000 troops left. However, because it was not clear which pass the Qin army would attack, the three passes were

Guandu had to garrison troops, but Huguan had the largest garrison, reaching 30,000 people.

There's no way around it. Huguan is the middle of the three passes. It's only 40 miles east of Lu County. The distance is too close. Yunfeng naturally can't choose the far one over the near one. It's natural to use Huguan as the breakthrough point.

In terms of the difficulty of attacking the three levels of the Party, the differences are not too big, but they all have one thing in common, that is, they must be passed by Lu County.

From Lu County to Huguan, there is only one long road connecting it. This long road is only three steps wide and less than forty miles long. Thanks to the elimination of trebuchets and crossbows, heavy weapons would not be able to pass through at all, but even so

, vehicles loaded with ballistae can only move forward slowly.

Compared with the pavilion road in front of Jiange, the width of the Xingdao in front of Huguan is narrower, but the advantage is that it is in a canyon, unlike Jiange, where one side is suspended in the air. Although the ground is slippery, you don't have to worry about losing your footing and falling into the gorge.

On both sides of the road, along the way, there are rolling forests covered with snow, rugged rocks in various shapes, gurgling ice waterfalls like silver, ice-free deep pools with rippling blue waves, and fascinating deep caves with virtual reality, light and dark, and strange

Dangerous and dangerous, it seems that all the ingenuity of nature has been condensed within these forty miles!

The women had forgotten that they were on an expedition. They were all immersed in the beautiful scenery of nature. Their exclaims and screams from time to time would occasionally scare squirrels or foxes in the forest, which in turn attracted even greater attention.

Scream!

Although the war destroyed Bingzhou, as far as Yunfeng knew, the total population of Bingzhou was only a little over 200,000, which also included the Qiang, Clan, Xiongnu and Xianbei. However, at the same time, the massive death of the population also reduced the natural population of Bingzhou.

The ecology has been restored quickly, and there is undoubtedly a conflict between man and nature!

In this way, we walked on the rugged mountain road through insufficient snow, starting early in the morning. In the evening, the vanguard arrived at Huguan Pass. However, the team behind still stretched for more than twenty miles!

"Dang, Dang, Dang!" As soon as the Qin army's forward stopped five hundred steps away from Guancheng, the gong immediately exploded on Guancheng, and after a burst of people, Jie's army was already standing there.

Yun Feng waved his hand fiercely, and the forwards quickly set up a defensive formation. He himself took two steps forward and looked up the mountains in front of the pass. There were Baigu Mountain in the north of Huguan, Shuanglong Mountain in the south, and two mountains.

The mountain is shaped like a pot, with the mouth of the pot as the pass, so it is named Huguan.

The terrain of Huguan is slightly more spacious than in front of Jiange, and can accommodate about a thousand siege troops. Although the Jie army has 30,000 people guarding the pass, if they take the initiative to attack, they can only dispatch a thousand people. Therefore, the so-called defensive formation,

That is, more than ten ballista carts lined up in a row, with crossbowmen in the middle.

Behind Huguan, the terrain opened up, and a hundred miles ahead was Linli County (today's Linzhou, Henan). Then the road was smooth, and we marched northeast, passing Handan, a total of more than 500 miles, and we reached Xiangxiang, the capital of Zhao State.

country!

As for the city of Huguan Pass, it is sandwiched between two mountains, about ten feet wide and five feet high. It is entirely made of rocks. Just like all the cities in the north in winter, the Jie army is pouring cold water on the city wall.

What caught Yunfeng's attention was that there were more than ten black holes about a foot square distributed on the city wall, some high and some low, staggered and staggered. They were a bit like bunkers in previous lives.

Just as he was secretly making guesses in his mind, suddenly, there was a soft and inaudible crunching sound in his ears. Yunfeng's face changed slightly and he shouted urgently: "Get down quickly!"

As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen three-foot giant arrows were fired at rapid speed with a roaring sound piercing the air!

Yunfeng quickly drew out his sword, "Dang, Dang!" There were two crisp sounds, and two arrows flew away. When he looked back, he was not injured. The people who followed him as the vanguard were all personal guards, and the guards were quick in their movements.

They reacted quickly and the arrows came out of the hole. They already lay down like a conditioned reflex. However, three of the ballistae were hit. The thick arrow shafts were nailed to the cannon body and trembled from left to right. There were obvious cracks in the cannon body. It was obviously

Scrapped.

"Damn it, I've been hunting geese all day long, but the geese pecked me in the eye!" Yunfeng suddenly felt a burst of anger in his heart. He had always bullied people with long-range weapons, but today it was better, he was defeated by an army without saying a word.

!

"Hit! Hit his hole!" Yunfeng turned around and shouted without thinking.

The bodyguards, however, looked at each other head-on. If they were to hit a one-foot-square target from a distance of five hundred steps, even an immortal would not be able to hit it.

However, Yunfeng's face was so gloomy that the guards had no choice but to load and string the crossbow-type ballistae.

"Tangtangttt~~" The bowstrings rang several times, and one or two jingles were heard in the distance. This must have hit the city wall. The rest of the arrows did not even make a sound, and they all flew into the sky!

"Hahahaha~~" There was a burst of proud laughter from the top of the city: "Okay! Since you can come here, it means that you have defeated Pu Ban, which is great, but this is where you will be buried.
Chapter completed!
