Chapter 651: Snowstorm and Cold Blade (3)

The thunderous blow silenced all the Donghu cavalry. Everyone's eyes fell on the small fortress. There were corpses piled on top of each other and horses on top of each other. The blood had just flowed out and was already frozen by the cold wind. , which makes the other places under the fort, except for the place where the corpse fell, still white and crystal clear. [

Red and white, at this time, formed such a huge contrast that shocked everyone's vision.

There was a look of extreme shock in Mo Yandu's eyes. Originally, these more than a hundred horsemen and horses were just sent by him in response to the provocation of the Eastern Expedition Army in this village. In his imagination, even if they died in battle, these soldiers could still Showing the ability of the Donghu warriors, he caused some damage to the enemy, but such a severe blow was greatly beyond his expectation. He originally thought that a small fortress with hundreds of soldiers stationed there would not be too many at all. The long-range weapons that can pose a threat to them are those smooth ice walls with no grip, but now it seems that they were wrong.

He suddenly felt a little lucky. If he had not sent out more than a hundred people to test it out but launched a large-scale attack as soon as he arrived, I am afraid that it would not only be more than a hundred horsemen and horses lying under the city now, but many times more. Donghu Jian'er.

He suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders was a bit heavy. In this area, were the more than ten villages centered on the Dubo Village named by the Eastern Expeditionary Army like this? If this is the case, how much life will it cost to sweep this area into a pure land?

People from the Central Plains are really rich. Mo Yandu suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart. Based on his experience, the more than a hundred soldiers who conquered the east were equipped with at least two powerful crossbows per person. Only by loading the crossbow in advance can such a dense wave of blows be formed in a very short period of time.

"Withdraw the troops!" He lowered his face and turned the horse. "Gujili. Send someone over and tell them that we want to take back the bodies of the sons and see if they agree?"

"Yes, General!" Gu Jili, who was also immersed in shock, took a deep breath. More than a hundred human lives were all gone in the blink of an eye.

On the city, seeing the Donghu army turning around and retreating, the soldiers marching east raised their arms and cheered. But the company commander Song Hongxin didn't have much joy on his face. The opponent was difficult to deal with. He hoped that because of this ruthless blow, the opponent's coach would be so angry that he would launch a counterattack regardless of the blow. In this way, he would You can take advantage of the fact that the enemy doesn't have many targeted weapons and kill as many enemies as possible to make enough money, but obviously. The enemy's commander-in-chief was a very calm guy. He didn't want to fight without a single hit, so he had to retreat.

When he comes next time. But there is no such good thing. He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He was so incompetent that the lives of more than a hundred Donghu people were at stake under the city. He and his more than a hundred brothers. Having earned enough money, next, kill one person each time. That’s a life earned!

Be content and happy!

"Company Commander,

Why are some Donghu people coming here with white flags? Could it be that they were frightened by us and surrendered? "Hu Hu came over, unaware that it was precisely because of that thing on his crotch that more than a hundred Donghu soldiers had just been buried under the city.

"Fart!" Song Hongxin spat at him.

Among the tribe, Gu Jili finally found the Donghu soldiers who could speak a few words in the Central Plains dialect. Holding the white flag, they bypassed the obstacles and walked towards the city. The cavalry in front of them were destroyed in an instant. These Donghu soldiers were Hu Bing could not help but feel a little trembling, fearing that another rain of arrows would rain down unreasonably on the city.

After passing through the barrier, the city was still quiet. Several Donghu soldiers could not help but heave a sigh of relief. When they raised their heads, they were startled. Above the fortress, densely packed black arrows were aimed at them without warning.

"Sir." The leader of the Donghu people raised the white flag in his hand, waved it a few times, bowed and saluted the city, "We will collect the remains of the warriors, please allow us!"

"It turns out that I want to collect the bodies of these barbarians. Company commander, will you agree to them?" Huzi asked.

"What do you think?" Song Hongxin asked.

"This, I think it's okay." Huzi touched the stiff beard on his face and said, "Death is a big deal!"

"Promise them to move, but only ten people can come at a time." Song Hongxin nodded.

The beard poked his head out, "You, ten people at a time, move out!"

The Donghu soldiers below the city did not expect it to be so smooth. Several Donghu soldiers bowed deeply to the city. Several of them threw away the white flags in their hands and walked to the pile of corpses. One of them bent down and carried a dead body on his back. , strode back.

Immediately, in batches of ten people, the Donghu soldiers passed through the obstacles with empty hands, and carried away the bodies of their colleagues in batches.

Seeing these people leaving, Song Hongxin sighed in his heart. After he and his brothers died in battle, he didn't know who would collect the bodies for them, or just explode them in the wilderness!

In Tengger, on top of the camp destroyed by the Eastern Expeditionary Army, the Donghu Hetao Camp was set up here. In Yan Qi's Chinese army tent, the envoy from the forward general Mo Yandu was asking Yan Qi. It tells about the fortress group of the Eastern Conquest Army they encountered in the Dobo area.

"General, General Moyanduo requested the general to support siege equipment, preferably with siege vehicles." The messenger bowed and said: "Those forts are equipped with long-range weapons that are beyond comparison. If there are not enough siege equipment, I'm afraid we will have to pay a heavy price to allow warriors on horseback to attack the strong city. General Mo Yanduo thinks it is foolish."

Yan Qi snorted, "Siege equipment? I want it too, but I don't have it either. The craftsmen from Qi have not made many siege equipment. There are not many things like siege engines in the entire Donghu." Taiwan, it is even more impossible to transport them here. Those treasures are now models imitated by our Donghu craftsmen. Our own craftsmen do not know how to build them. And those Qi people are now the king's treasures, how can they be sent? Come to a dangerous place like the front line to build a siege engine for us!”

"What should I do?" the messenger said with a pale face: "General, General Moyanduo launched a tentative attack, but more than a hundred warriors were shot dead by the enemy without even getting close to the city wall. We cannot risk the precious lives of our warriors against a fortified city!"

"What a fortified city!" Yan Qi said angrily: "Can a small village with more than a hundred people intimidate Mo Yandu who has tens of thousands of troops? Go back and tell him that I don't have any siege equipment." , let him think of a way for himself. The Donghu Warriors are immediately invincible. Even if they dismount, they can still block ten with one. This is also a test for our Donghu Warriors. If we can't even win such a small fortress, in the future we will When we reach the Central Plains, why should we capture the enemy's counties, prefectures, and capitals? Those are the real fortified cities. Tell Mo Yandu that these small villages with a small number of people are just for him to practice how to attack the city and fight well. Now, when we attack the Central Plains, he will still be my vanguard general!"

The envoy was so frightened by Yan Qi's roar that he turned pale and could not straighten his waist. "Yes, General, I will definitely convey the General's words to General Moyanduo."

"Don't be afraid of the dead!" Yan Qi softened his tone, "In a war, no one will die. The key is that he has to learn how to attack a stronghold while consuming the lives of my Donghu warriors. Siege equipment It’s not that I can’t bear it, but I really don’t have it, but I will send two officers to assist him. These officers are all surrendered officers of the Yan people. They are well versed in the ways of attack and defense, and I believe they can help him.”

"Thank you, General!" the envoy was overjoyed.

The envoy left happily, but Yan Qi walked to the map behind him and stared at it. In this battle, he had to gain time and establish victory before the Liaohe River thawed. Otherwise, after the Liaohe River thawed, he would be defeated. Trouble. At that time, the logistical supply of tens of thousands of cavalry became a big problem.

The Eastern Expedition Army also had a large cavalry unit in Hetao, and these cavalry units were mainly Huns. Those damn Huns were not inferior to the Donghu warriors in terms of their ability on horseback. Yu Wenke's defeat was enough to sound the alarm for Yan Qi. Although the cavalry of the Eastern Expedition Army could not compete with his own troops in terms of numbers, they were not inferior to him in terms of quality.

Picking up the charcoal, Yan Qi drew three circles on the map, including Tongwan City, Pioneer City, and Dubo. Then he drew a circle with dotted lines at the location of Dayan City, staring at it. After looking at these places for a while, he threw the charcoal on the ground. He turned around and shouted loudly: "Come here, beat the drum and gather together."

Song Hongxin stood on the city wall and looked at the Donghu camp in the distance. For three days in a row, the Donghu people did not launch an attack, but continued to divide their troops. He watched the Donghu cavalry leave and move to different places. Song Hongxin knew that his opponent was taking advantage of his own strength and was preparing to attack these villages with Dubo as the core at the same time.

Song Hongxin didn't need to worry about Dubo Village, but he couldn't help but worry about the other villages. His own place was considered to be the most powerful place in combat. How long could the other places last?

Before the war started, all the village affairs were discussed, and the guards of each fortress had agreed that if everything was safe, there would be a puff of smoke every day. If the village was about to be destroyed, there would be red smoke. Over the past few days, green smoke continued to rise from all directions. , which means that they have all encountered enemy attacks, but are still safe for the time being.

"It's going to be fast here!" Song Hongxin said in his heart.

The dull sound of drums sounded in the distance, and when he listened to the familiar drumbeat of Jujiang, Song Hongxin was in high spirits. Instead of waiting in agony like this, it would be more enjoyable to fight to the death. The opponent was ordering troops from Jujiang, and it was finally time to start. Already?

Looking at the general's flag still flying on the opposite side, Song Hongxin couldn't help but feel a little proud. The other side's general thought highly of him and actually stayed here in person instead of going to Dubo Village.

Since he thinks so highly of himself, of course he must also think highly of him! He couldn't help but laugh.

"Brothers, prepare to break the fast!" he shouted loudly. (To be continued,!
