    In the early morning, outside Yanmen Pass, the fog was shrouded and visibility was poor. Amidst the continuous sound of horns, tens of thousands of Xiongnu troops had already lined up. Countless sabers were shining, and murderous intent was rushing into the sky. Although today is not a good day for fighting,  But the Great Chan Yu-Hufro had no patience to wait any longer, and invested a total of 30,000 troops at once, which was already half of his capital, which shows how determined he was to break the city.

    On the other side, Yanmen was closed, and the Han army was also ready to fight. The 10,000 Han troops were divided into three groups and took turns to defend the city. All officers from Xiao Yi onwards were on the front line, and some were holding ghost heads.  Dadao's team of supervisors is standing behind everyone. Once the battle begins, who dares to retreat and kill them?

    On the city wall, arrow clusters were piled densely together, and stones and rolled logs were piled up like mountains. In order to prepare these things for the defenders, many people spontaneously demolished their houses. Men all went to the city to help carry supplies, and women  They are also rushing to make military rations at home. It can be said that everyone in this city is ready to fight.

    Among the Xiongnu army, the first one responsible for attacking the city was King Youxian. Thousands of vanguard soldiers were already carrying newly made ladders and planks and moved into place. There were also a large number of archers behind to provide cover. King Youxian -  'Huchuquan' Hengdao stood up and was checking the movement of the Han army on the opposite side. Unfortunately, because of the fog, he couldn't see anything clearly. Although he knew that this was his brother 'Yu Fuluo' taking the opportunity to weaken his own strength, but  But he had to accept this glorious and arduous task. The order of the Xiongnu Great Chanyu was irresistible. Besides, maybe this was an opportunity. The team that attacked the city first would naturally have some casualties, but once they attacked, the disaster would be inevitable.  The looted property will also be the richest.

    "Warriors of the Great Huns, break through the Han people's cities and kill all their men. There are countless beauties and fine wines waiting for you to enjoy. Enjoy this happy time, kill!" With a wave of the saber in his hand, 'Huchuquan'  The order to attack was given.

    "Du! Du! Du!" As the attack horn sounded, the Huns soldiers who had been preparing for a long time shouted loudly and launched a charge towards the flood. The first thing they had to face was the trench. Yanmen Pass is located in the mountainous area, outside the city.  There was a lack of water and it was impossible to draw a moat, so Xiao Yi sent people to dig three trenches here. The Huns soldiers who had experienced going south were no strangers to trenches. They only needed to use wooden planks on their shoulders to cover them.  Yes, but this trench seems a bit special!

    In general trenches, the soil is transported away or evenly piled on both sides. However, in the three trenches designed by Xiao Yi, all the excavated soil is piled on one side, and it is also undulating, although it looks a bit uneven.  It's weird, but these Huns soldiers didn't pay much attention to it. No matter how weird a trench is, it's still a trench. Could it still be capable of eating people? They just rush over; but when they rush closer, they realize that it's not as simple as they thought!

    As soon as the Hun soldiers who rushed in front climbed up the mound, they were sniped by the Han army's sharp archers. Standing on the high slope of the earth, their bodies were wide open, and they couldn't find any cover. They immediately became  A living target for the Han army. What was even more depressing was that the trench in front of them was undulating on both sides. If they wanted to rush over, they had to climb on the same uneven wooden boards. The road was uneven and the center of gravity was unstable. Many Huns soldiers  Just like that, they wailed and fell into the trench, where countless inverted wooden thorns were waiting for them

    "Archers, prepare, elevation angle is 73%, release!" Yanmen closed and followed the command, countless arrows rained down, falling on the Hun soldiers who were climbing over the ditch. Suddenly, people were turned upside down, and there were countless casualties

    "Archers, press forward! Shoot those Han Chinese to death!" Seeing that the forward troops were blocked by a few trenches, the angry King Youxian - 'Huchuquan' immediately ordered the archers to move forward to provide the troops in front with  cover.

    For a time, there was a back and forth on the battlefield, forming a duel between archers. In this unfair contest, the Han army standing on the city wall undoubtedly took advantage. As the saying goes, stand high and shoot far.  Arrows shot from an elevated angle can not only cover all areas, but are also extremely powerful. However, those poor Huns soldiers have to work hard to raise their heads and shoot arrows. Not only is the power suddenly reduced, but the range is also severely restrained, causing heavy casualties in a matter of seconds.  The collapse went down

    Seeing the enemy retreating, cheers erupted immediately after Yanmen closed. However, Xiao Yi, as the commander-in-chief of an army, stood there calmly, not talking or smiling, taking everything in front of him as a matter of course, with a deep and profound attitude.  It's scary; now he is the backbone of the soldiers, so he must stand in the most conspicuous place and be very showy so that every soldier can see, 'The commander is with us.' This is very important to stabilize the morale of the army.

    Xiao Yi was smiling lightly, but King Youxian Huchuquan was furious and used his saber to kill him one after another.After killing more than a dozen soldiers who were the first to escape, he let out a sullen breath. This attack did not even touch the enemy's wall before he retreated. It was really hateful and annoying. It would make him the laughing stock of other chiefs.  The great Chan Yu who was supervising the battle from behind - 'Hufro' - also put a lot of pressure on him.

    If you want to ascend the throne of the Great Chanyu, you must achieve the greatest military exploits and let all the tribal chiefs know how powerful you are. After learning from the painful experience, 'Huchuquan' ordered to reorganize the formation and recruit more troops.  , prepare more arrow clusters and equipment, and prepare to launch a second attack. This time, Yanmen Pass must be taken down in one fell swoop!

    "Kill!" Half an hour later, after careful preparation, the Huns' second attack began. Compared with the last time, the number of people attacking this time was almost doubled. King Youxian-'Huchu  Quan' personally stood in front of the formation and commanded. Anyone who dared to take half a step back would be killed immediately. Under his coercion, the Xiongnu archers moved forward desperately to shoot at the Han army, and the people behind started to fill the gap like crazy.  They threw down three trenches, soil, sandbags, planks, and even the bodies of their dead companions, filled one place, passed another, and approached the city wall step by step. Then they erected a ladder and began to climb up with shouts.

    "Rush up, step on the city wall first, and reward a hundred cattle and sheep, and fifty miles of pasture!" Under a heavy reward, there must be a brave man. King Youxian 'Huchuquan' also understood this truth, so he threw out the reward without hesitation.  Strive to break the city in one fell swoop!

    "Hoo! Hoo!" After hearing the generous reward, the Huns soldiers who were attacking the city immediately went into a state of madness, howling and setting up ladders and rushing forward. Some soldiers who were not afraid of death even used the skills of roping horses on the grassland.  He tied the parapet at the top of the city with the noose in his hand, held the steel knife in his mouth, and climbed up. For these poor Huns soldiers, cattle, sheep and pasture were everything to them. With these things, the family could  There is no need to go hungry anymore, and the extra children born every year no longer need to be abandoned in the wilderness to feed wolves. It¡¯s worth it to risk your own life!

    "Kill! Kill one enemy, get one tael of bounty, kill ten enemies, and get a promotion!" Facing the surging enemy troops, Xiao Yi, who was supervising the battle, also unceremoniously threw out a large reward, and fiercely  The morale of the three armies; why the ancient Qin army was invincible in the world, wasn't it because of its military merits?  Want to get promoted and make a fortune?  Do you want to make your wife a wife? Well, I'll give it to you in exchange for the enemy's head!

    "Whoa! Whoa!" With the same purpose, the soldiers on both sides were twisted together like a wave. With each collision, a large number of lives were lost. The Huns soldiers held steel knives in their mouths and risked their lives to step on the city.  The soldiers of the Han Dynasty waved their swords and axes and chopped the ropes with all their strength. No one was willing to take a step back. Their swords and spears collided with each other, and fists and kicks were exchanged. When the fight reached a fever pitch, many of them rolled together and fell off the city wall and perished together.  , the blood flowed straight from the city wall to the bottom of the city, and then quickly flowed to the low-lying areas, and then merged into streams

    Facing the fierce battle on the city wall, the commanders of both sides had no intention of taking a step back. The Great Chanyu-Hufrog who was watching the battle from behind immediately mobilized the "Chanyu Dahu" and commanded the entire army to press forward to support King Youxian.  The success or failure of our troops depends on this.

    On the other side, Xiao Yi also showed no sign of weakness and mobilized a team of reinforcements. He held a gold-plated phoenix-winged drill and stared at blood-red eyes. He personally led the team to rush forward, killing, killing non-stop, and blood poured down like rain.  Just like the Battle of Crouching Tiger Pavilion, the difference is that at that time, Xiao Yi was just a wolf cub that had just grown its milk teeth, but now he has grown into a 'greedy wolf' who is proud of the world

    A whole day of bloody battles, both sides fought and charged repeatedly. The Huns relied on the strength of their numbers and rushed to the top of the city several times, but they were driven back several times by Xiao Yi and his men with brutal hand-to-hand combat. At dusk,  The Huns soldiers who suffered heavy casualties finally withdrew like the ebbing sea water, and the corpses of soldiers on both sides had covered the land in front of Yanmen Pass

    The horns stopped, the flags were broken, corpses piled up like mountains, countless crows circled over Yanmen, chirping excitedly, and human flesh and blood turned into their most sumptuous meal (remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
