    When he woke up, Xiao Yi found out that he had been promoted again because Mu Shun, the general of Yanmen Pass, had run away. He thought that this cowardly guy would not survive for another two days, but he didn't expect that Mu Shun would bring a few people with him that night.  A private soldier sneaked out of the city gate, even abandoning several concubines in his private house. He left in a clean manner, and even said in a beautiful way: Go to Jinyang in person to pray for reinforcements from the governor Zhang Yang!

    The majestic general of a city ran to find reinforcements without even seeing the shadow of the enemy. This kind of strange thing was also very rare in the hundreds of years of war history of the Han Dynasty. If the general ran away, he would run away. After all, he was greedy for life and afraid of death.  This is human nature, but according to the Han system, when the general is killed in battle or unable to take charge for some reason, the deputy general will automatically take over. This means that from now on, Xiao Yi will have the final say in all affairs of Yanmen Pass!

    "Ta! Ta da!" This time Xiao Yi brought all the Xuanjia troops to the city. He was going to implement military control. Yanmen Pass was already in chaos. Hearing that the generals had all run away, the officials and people in the city immediately became confused.  After the nest exploded, it felt like the sky was about to fall. The streets and alleys were full of people preparing to flee. The men carried the more valuable belongings of the family on their shoulders, and the women held the children in one hand and the poultry they were reluctant to throw away in the other, crying.  They rushed towards the city gate. Except for some old people who were really inconvenient to move, it could be said that the whole city was out in force. Even some of the soldiers guarding the city threw down their weapons, rolled on the ground, and then grabbed a handful of mud and wiped it on their faces.  I sneaked into the fleeing crowd, and all the officials were gone. Who else would I work for?

    "Close the city gate. Anyone who dares to escape from the city privately again will be killed!" Xiao Yi gave the order, and his cavalry immediately closed the city gate tightly. Under the threat of the shining saber, the flow of people was finally stopped, but they were still  There was a lot of noise there, asking for the door to be opened to let them escape. The adults shouted, the children cried, and the situation became a mess.

    "Soldiers and people in the city, listen, this general is Xiao Yi, the commander of the Xuanjia Army. He is now acting as the guard general of Yanmen Pass. It is our duty as Han people to defend the Han family's city. From now on, the army and the people are united.  Anyone who dares to escape privately again will be killed!" Xiao Yi waved his hand, and a group of wolf-like soldiers immediately grabbed a few deserters from the crowd, pushed them to the ground without saying a word, and stabbed their heads with a knife, leaving bloody heads.  Rolling down, the crowd immediately fell silent.

    People flee because they are afraid of death. Now that death is right in front of them, the crowd retreats in fear. Killing people to establish authority is a good way to stop chaos at any time. The premise is that you must be able to control the scale well, otherwise if it backfires, it will be corpses.  The end of Wu Cun; but Xiao Yi is not afraid, fighting is just a business of killing people!

    "Please lead us to defend the city! The common people are willing to help you defend the city" Several old people suddenly knelt down in front of Xiao Yima and shouted loudly. Then the crowd fell down like a wave. No one wanted to give up their own.  In our homeland, there is no soldier who wants to be a deserter by nature. As the saying goes, "Soldiers will follow the grass and the wind." People are panicking because the general Mu Shun ran away. Everyone has no backbone. Now Xiao Yi stands up and uses bloody weapons.  Rentou told everyone that they were going to defend the city, and the people who once again found their backbone suddenly burst out with enthusiasm to protect their homeland!

    "Okay, you listen to my general's order. All soldiers should return to their own teams and guard the city. All the young and strong men in the city will go to the city to help defend. The rest of the people will return to their own homes and are not allowed to go out at will. The streets will be under martial law. I will be here  I swear to live and die with Yanmen Pass!" With the sword on the back of his hand, Xiao Yi used his own blood to prove his determination to protect the city!

    "I respectfully respect your order!  I swear to live and die with Yanmen!" The crowd burst into loud shouts. As long as officials are not afraid of death, what should ordinary people like them be afraid of!

    In the lobby of the General's Mansion, Xiao Yi was looking at a defense map of Yanmen City. Now he was the master here. Mu Shun was pretty good. When he left, he left the city guard's seal with him. With the seal,  Xiao Yi can more legitimately command all the important military and political affairs of Yanmen; Xuanjia Army has taken over all the key departments, now let's see how Xiao Yi arranges his troops!

    Three thousand Xuanjia troops, seven thousand ordinary soldiers, plus tens of thousands of civilians, against the Huns' 60,000 elite cavalry, are indeed at an absolute disadvantage in terms of strength. However, in addition to competing for strength, the war also requires competing for the command of the leaders of both sides.  Art, this is military!

    Yanmen Pass is a dangerous place in the world. The peaks on both sides are unreachable. There is only one road in the middle that can connect the north and the south. There are two gates in Yanmen Pass, the north and south gates. The south gate connects to the mainland of the Central Plains. There will be no enemies there, so you only need to guard the north wall.  That's it. Thanks to the old eunuch Zhang Yang, a lot of people and material resources were used to build the Yanmen city defenses into an impregnable city. The several-foot-high city walls were made of huge rocks and loess and were indestructible. There were densely packed walls on them.  The archery tower and fortifications are extremely complete. The city has sufficient food, weapons, and arrow clusters, and the water source is also insufficient.The problem is, although there is some shortage of troops, as long as the command is proper, it is not impossible to defend the city.

    But what Xiao Yi wants to do is not just to defend the city. He wants to kill a large number of the invading Huns soldiers and wash away the blood with blood. He has not forgotten the blood feud at Crouching Tiger Pavilion at all!

    Daniu, Ma Liu and other generals were standing silently behind them. They had full confidence in Xiao Yi, which was brought about by victorious battles. Especially when they saw Xiao Yi touching his chin for a long time and then suddenly started laughing wildly.  When they touched their noses, they knew that the Huns were about to bleed into rivers

    "Ma Liu listens to the order! You lead a group of cavalry out of the north gate, and within two days, move all the residents of the villages north of Yanmen Pass into the city, fill up all the wells, demolish all the houses, and finally set a big fire for me.  , burn the crops and grasslands there to a flat ground, and make sure not a single blade of grass grows, do you understand?"

    "No!" Ma Liu hurriedly stepped forward to salute and agreed, and then said with a look of embarrassment: "Most of the nearby farmland is gathered in the north of the city. Now the crops are not yet mature. If a fire burns them, I'm afraid there will be interference from the people.  That is their lifeblood"

    Food is the most important thing for the people!  Yanmenguan is located on the border close to the prairie. The land here is fertile, arable and grazing, so many people water and farm in spring, and go to the grassland to graze like the Huns in summer and autumn. They live a pretty good life.  Now if we want to forcibly relocate them and destroy their homes, they will inevitably encounter fierce resistance. That's why Ma Liu asked this question!

    "We can't eat that food. Instead of leaving it to the Huns, it's better to burn it all with a fire. At least it can fertilize the land. As for those who dare to resist the migration, they will be treated as collaborators and killed without mercy!  "Xiao Yi's voice was extremely cold. As a general who coordinates the overall situation, all he considers is the outcome of the war. As for the lives and deaths of some people, they are just a small bargaining chip in the balance of war. This is the reason why compassion does not lead the army!

    Looking at Ma Liu's flushed face, Xiao Yi knew that he still couldn't bear it. This was Ma Liu's character, not ruthless enough.

    With a long sigh, Xiao Yi stepped forward and patted his shoulder and said: "I know you can't bear to use the knife on the common people, but now we are fighting, and everything is to survive. After the Huns are driven away, we can compensate the common people.  ! Let you do this, and a few fewer people will die!"

    "No!" Ma Liu didn't dare to say anything more, turned around and led a group of people to execute the military order. He knew that what Xiao Yi said was right, 'The poisonous snake bites the hand, the strong man cuts off the wrist,' soldiers need this kind of decisiveness!

    "Da Niu! You lead people to strengthen the city defense in the north. Prepare lots of arrow clusters, rolling logs, and thunder stones. If necessary, you can demolish the houses in the city. Let's demolish them from the general's mansion first. Anyone who dares to interfere will be killed without mercy.  !¡±

    "Promise!" Daniel replied much more cheerfully. He never thought too much about Xiao Yi's orders, he just wanted to execute them.

    "Xiao Bin, you are responsible for patrolling the city with my sword. If anyone escapes from battle, kill him!  If anyone makes trouble, kill him!  If anyone disobeys orders, kill him!" He removed the blood from his waist.  Xiao Yi directly handed over the Dragon Killing Sword. He used Chongdian in war. He had to make Yanmen Pass absolutely obey his command. For this reason, he didn't care if he killed a few more people!

    "No!" Taking Xiao Yi's sword with both hands, Xiao Bin felt that the responsibility was extremely important, and the trust was also extremely important. As far as he knew, Xiao Yi had never handed over his sword to anyone else. He was  First!

    A scholar dies for his confidant!  For this trust, Xiao Bin decided to kill him to death, whether he was an enemy or one of his own!

    Looking at the much empty lobby, Xiao Yi smiled slightly and called the remaining people in charge of logistics and food such as Fatty Cao and Fat Liu together. Next, he was going to prepare a big meal for the Huns (  Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
