Chapter 21 Bloody Battle of Yanmen
Yanmen County was a large city in the north of the Han Dynasty. Its city was high and thick, with a circle of more than twenty miles, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.
On the fields outside the city, a crowd of black people surged, rolling towards Yanmen City like waves. It was the Hun army under the command of the military minister Shanyu.
The sound of thunderous hooves made the earth tremble. The smoke and dust splashed from the iron hooves floated towards Yanmen City like a huge dark cloud; the wolf flag fluttering in the wind covered the sky and the sun, and the Huns' army was more than 100,000,000, like a ferocious monster, who wanted to swallow Yanmen City in one bite.
Junchen Shanyu rode on the Chidian and looked at Yanmen City. At this time, Junchen Shanyu looked pale and his breath was a little uneven, which was given to Zhou Yang's energy.
More than 5,000 heads were sent to the military minister Shanyu. He finally understood why Yi Zhi was so angry that he became dying after losing the battle and could die at any time. He was not happy and could not calm down.
On the top of Yanmen City, the Han army was bright and armored, and was ready for battle. It seemed that the surprise attack could not be successful.
"The Ahu tribe ruined the great affairs of this Shanyu!" Junchen Shanyu hummed angrily. If Ahu'er was by his side at this time, he would definitely be punished.
The Bank of China said a sharp voice: "The most important thing in this operation is to attack Yanmen City and seize its siege equipment. The warriors of the Great Huns are good at attacking Yezhan and are not good at attacking the city. If they want to capture Yanmen City, they will inevitably pay a heavy price. Only by taking Yanmen City and seizing the siege equipment can they break through other cities with lightning speed. But now, they can no longer attack."
In history, the Huns captured Yanmen City with thunder and lightning speed. Feng Jing, the prefect of Yanmen, and more than 2,000 officers and soldiers, were all killed in battle. More than 100,000 people in the city either slaughtered the Huns or captured them as slaves, and none of them were spared.
What's even more terrifying is that the Xiongnu seized the siege equipment from the city and had the ability to siege the city. They advanced southward and attacked many cities, and finally even the Ganquan Palace in Mount Li was burned down.
The place where the entire "ling humiliation and hatred" begins is Yanmen County.
Zhou Yang designed to attack the camp of Ahu's troops, angered Junchen Shanyu and sent troops to attack Antao City. This had already exposed Junchen Shanyu's intentions. Zhou Yang had already sent someone to warn Feng Jing, and now Yanmen City is guarding like an iron barrel.
The Huns were not good at siegeing cities, and they had no siege equipment. The military minister Shanyu tried to avoid the attack. However, now he had no choice but to face the strong city of Yanmen City.
Junchen Shanyu took a long breath and calmed down his mind: "Zhongxing said, go and pass on the message and ask them to put down their weapons, otherwise when the city is broken, there will be no chicken or dog left!"
The Bank of China said he would take the order, and came to the city to beat the horse and bowed to the city: "I would like to ask the prefect Feng to answer."
"Wow!" No one responded to the city, but several barkings came from dogs in response.
"Previous Shou Feng answers!" Zhong Zhanzi spoke.
"Woom!" Several more dog barking came.
The Bank of China was confused and frowned. Just as he was about to talk, a soldier in the city said in a loud voice: "That's the eunuch, the prefect said, you are not as good as a bad dog, you are only worthy of talking to the dog. Why don't you get out of here!"
This is an insult, a great insult! The Bank of China said that it could not bear it. He exclaimed a resentment, pointed at the top of the city, and cursed with gritted teeth: "Feng Jing, I want you to live rather than die!"
A mouthful of blood spurted out, almost falling off the horse's back, staggering back into the Huns formation, unable to hold on anymore, and fell head-on.
"Prince, why didn't you shoot this castration?" Some soldiers couldn't figure it out.
"Over the years, this eunuch has caused the Huns to be wrong. He was extremely guilty of the Huns. If he killed him now, it would be a good idea. Defeat the Huns first, let him watch, destroy his plans one by one for the Han Dynasty, and then catch him and cut them into pieces!" Feng Jing's eyes flashed with a sharp light.
"Zhongxing Talk!Zhongxing Talk!" Since Zhongxing Talk talked about the Huns, he has been giving advice to Junchen Shanyu. The reason why the Huns are so rampant in recent years is because of the instigation of Zhongxing Talk. Junchen Shanyu had long regarded this eunuch as his confidant. When he saw him fall, he was shocked and quickly heard a wizard rescue.
Before the confrontation, he was humiliated so much. Junchen Shanyu couldn't swallow his breath no matter how he said: "The order: siege the city! No house left! No one person left!"
"Don't leave a house! No one left!" The Huns roared, waved their scimitar and rushed down Yanmen City.
The prefect Feng Jing was wearing military uniform and stood on the head of the city, looking at the Huns rushing like a tide, and a sneer flashed across the corner of his mouth: "As the Captain Po Nu said, the greatest advantage of the Han Dynasty over the Huns is its advanced civilization and advanced skills. Humph, the Huns, let you see the skills of the Han Dynasty!"
"Come crossbow, prepare! Shoot!"
Feng Jing waved the flag in his hand.
"Swish!"
The sound of breaking through the air was loud, and countless crossbow arrows appeared in the air, bringing strong winds and shooting towards the Huns.
The crossbow, once it is fired, there are several crossbows. Yanmen City is a big city, and there are many crossbows in the city. At this moment, there are at least thousands of crossbow arrows flying. At first glance, it looks like an arrow net, covering the Huns.
The crossbow arrow has a long range, strong force and strong penetration. It is the most sharp weapon in the ancient world. I saw that the Huns fell to the ground like straw in the rice fields. With just one round of arrows, many Huns died under the crossbow arrow.
At this time, the Huns had several arrows away from Yanmen City. At such a long distance, even the Legend of the Condor Heroes who were proud of the Huns were powerless.
In front of the crossbow machine, no matter how good the archery technique is, it is useless. How can the archer do it?
This is the advantage of skill!
As soon as the crossbow arrows went, another wave arrived, one net after another, covering the Huns again and again. When the Huns rushed to the city, there were already many casualties, with hundreds of corpses left.
Hundreds of corpses were just the tip of the iceberg compared to the dozen Huns' army. However, the casualties were quite high when they paid so much on the charge.
The military minister Shanyu personally supervised the battle, and the Huns did not dare to retreat, but they could only fight to attack the city. The Huns rushed to the city, set up ladders, and began to attack the city.
The Huns could not climb up the city with wood, rocks, tinder oil and arrows on the top of the city.
This time, the military officials of the military officials, Shanyu, planned very well and had great hopes. However, they were humiliated one after another, and first rushed into the hinterland of the Huns and attacked the camp of the Ahu tribe. This loss was completely negligible, but it set a precedent for the Han army to attack the Huns camp and could not be tolerated.
Immediately afterwards, Yi Zhixie was defeated and he was left with only one breath, which was even more unbearable.
The most annoying thing is that when Junchen Shanyu was in Taocheng, he saw more than 5,000 Huns' heads, and was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot. After repeated anger, Junchen Shanyu had already made up his mind to avenge his shame. No matter how expensive it was, he had to break through Yanmen City and slaughter all the Yanmen to vent his hatred.
As soon as the attack ahead was frustrated, Junchen Shanyu ordered the troops behind to rush forward. Feng Jing calmly responded, commanded the Han army, and used the advantage of the long range of crossbow arrows to shoot the Xiongnu's successor troops, which cost the Xiongnu a high price.
The Huns rushed to the city, but the Han army was good at guarding, and they were as good as iron barrels.
The bloody battle under Yanmen City broke out.
Historically, Yanmen County was defeated by the Hungarians in one fell swoop, resulting in "ling humiliation hatred". Today, Yanmen City is standing.
One day, two days, three days...
Three days later, there were corpses everywhere under Yanmen City, broken limbs and broken arms everywhere, and blood was splashed everywhere...
