    As soon as the Xiongnu cavalry left Tongwan City, Han Wang Liu Cong received the news.  Since the flying pigeons were introduced, the speed of information transmission in the Skynet Camp has become extremely fast.

    One hundred thousand cavalry rolled in, like the water of the Yellow River bursting its banks, spreading over the northern grasslands.  Perhaps only during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, people had seen this kind of scene.

    However, this time, the people of Beidi County did not panic at all, because they moved to the three county towns of Maling, Yiqu and Fuping very early.  Beidi County was originally sparsely populated, and the people didn't have much property. Now it's a lean period, and there isn't much food left, so it's easy to move.

    In the past, when the Xiongnu went south, they had no choice but to hide in the nearby mountains. They did not dare to return to their dilapidated home until the Xiongnu soldiers returned to the royal court.

    But this year, the Han army is coming, and the King of Han has also arrived in Beidi County in person, so they naturally don¡¯t have to worry.

    Liu Bao¡¯s goal was very clear. One hundred thousand troops suddenly swarmed to the administrative seat of Beidi County, outside Maling City, and surrounded the entire city.

    He did not order the soldiers to set up camp, but asked a hundred thousand troops to prepare an attack formation, and then he and He Hetie personally led five thousand soldiers and horses to the city.

    On the top of the city, Han King Liu Cong, military advisor Fazheng, generals Wang Ping and Liu Hu, the guard commander Shi A, and the Northern Governor Huangfu Hong were already waiting.

    "Lord, is this Liu Bao going to lead his cavalry to our city?" Liu Hu discovered that the Huns soldiers did not bring ladders, rams, arrow towers, thunder chariots and other siege equipment, but just rode horses and approached.  Under the city, it was a little strange, but also very disdainful.

    "My lord, when the Huns went south to plunder, they never brought siege equipment. Their riding skills were very good, and their swordsmanship was also very good. After a row of cavalry shooting, the soldiers guarding the city would be killed and injured a lot. At this time, they would use iron  He knocked open the city gate with his teeth and rushed into the city." Huangfu Hong explained.  His expression was serious, obviously not as relaxed as others. Huangfuhong knew best how powerful the Huns' soldiers and horses were.

    "What are iron teeth?" Liu Cong asked.

    "Reporting to my lord, Tieya is actually an iron spur weighing more than 200 kilograms. It is tied with two iron chains. Two strong men of the Huns pulled the two ends of the iron chain respectively, and then urged the horse to rush over. With the help of  The momentum of the war horse threw the iron prickly pear out and hit the city gate. Even the thickest city gate will break after more than ten consecutive blows from the iron teeth."

    "Oh" Liu Cong nodded, "Wang Ping, find fifty crossbowmen, all holding repeating crossbows, and guard them above the city gate. Fifty sword and shield soldiers will cover them to deal with the iron cavalry of the Huns.  Ya, I want to see how good their riding skills are and how good their shooting skills are!"

    "No!"

    "My lord, fifty crossbowmen are a bit too few, aren't they? The Huns cavalry are very fast, I'm afraid"

    "Prefect Huangfu, don't worry. Our Han army's crossbowmen are not ordinary. My lord has arranged fifty of them, enough to guard the city gate. No matter how powerful his iron teeth are, we can pull them out!" Fa Zheng  Seeing that Huangfu Hong was still full of worry, he said lightly.

    "Who is Liu Cong, the King of Han, above the city?" At this time, Liu Bao and He Hetie had led their troops to a place only a dozen feet away from the city. They stopped, and Liu Bao shouted loudly.

    "I am the king!" Liu Cong replied loudly.

    Liu Bao looked at Liu Cong and found that he was only in his twenties and a typical Confucian scholar, so he looked very disdainful.

    "Liu Cong, I originally planned to capture and kill you in Luoyang City, but I didn't expect you to come to my door instead, which saved me a lot of trouble! Ha"

    "ha¡­¡­"

    The Xiongnu soldiers also laughed.

    "Liu Bao, you are just a barbarian, how dare you claim the title of king?" Liu Cong drew out the sword from his waist and pointed it from afar, "The late emperor has a legacy that no one with the surname Liu can claim the title of king, otherwise it will be considered treason!"

    "My surname is Liu, why can't I be called the king?" Liu Bao listened to Mr. Liu's words and suddenly realized that his surname was Liu and he could be called the king.

    "After Liu Cong heard Liu Bao's words, a strange smile appeared on his face.

    Liu Bao¡¯s father, Yu Fuluo, was the previous Shanyu and was named King Youxian.  During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he led the army to quell the rebellion, and then stationed himself north of Jinyang in Bingzhou.  Soon, the Central Plains was in chaos. Yu Fuluo had interacted with Baibo bandits, Yuan Shao, Zhang Yang and others. He saw the hope of the rise of the Xiongnu, so he changed his son's surname to Liu.

    "Since your surname is Liu, I would like to ask you, do you take your surname after your father? Or after your mother?"

    "II am following my mother" Yuvluo had many wives. Liu Bao thought he was smart and said:If a person follows his mother, there will be no trace of him.

    "An animal only knows its mother, but not its father!" Liu Cong said lightly.

    "Ha" Everyone on the top of the city laughed.

    Lord Liu Cong¡¯s answer is simply wonderful.

    "Our king takes his father's surname!" He Hetie said hurriedly when he saw Liu Bao's expression turned ugly.

    "With his father's surname, I remember his father's name seems to be Humphrey. If he forgets his father and his mother, wouldn't he be worse than a beast?"

    "ha¡­¡­"

    This time, the people on the top of the city laughed even harder, they were almost jumping up and down!

    Liu Bao was so angry that he was trembling all over. He screamed hysterically, "Attack the city, attack the city. After the attack is over, no chickens or dogs will be left behind!"

    "Attack the city!" He Hetie shouted, and five thousand cavalry immediately charged.

    Liu Bao never paid attention to Maling City, so he didn't even set up a camp, hoping to capture the city in one go.  In the past, it was so easy for them to attack the city, not to mention that now the war horses are horseshoeed and have double stirrups.  When I met Liu Cong just now, I just wanted to scare him and make both Liu Cong and the Han army afraid.

    Five thousand cavalry rushed around the city with a terrifying momentum.  Smoke and dust went straight up into the white clouds, and a shower of arrows seemed to fall from the sky and landed on the top of the city.

    But the Han soldiers at the top of the city had already been prepared, and the shield bearers had erected a protective wall that was impermeable to wind and rain.

    For experienced veterans of hundreds of battles, there are no thunderbolt chariots, arrow towers, or ladders, just riding and shooting. This is nothing at all. If you can't even block these arrows, it won't be a disgrace to the Han army. How can it be called  For the Han warrior?

    The crossbowman is unwilling to hide under the shield, and he will not be disrespectful to you!  You can cum, can¡¯t I?

    Although the Huns cavalry are very fast, they are armed with repeating crossbows!  The first arrow missed, and the second arrow arrived immediately, and the crossbowman quickly discovered the method and shot in front of the horse, hitting the target just in time.

    "As long as one person falls off the horse, or the war horse falls down, it will definitely affect other people. When the speed slows down, many holding repeating crossbows will be aimed at this place, and then people will fall on their backs, screaming, and a large area will fall down.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
