Chapter 933
The next day was hazy, and horns sounded across the vast land.
Driven by the Xiongnu cavalry, tens of thousands of captured Han people launched an attack on the county town of Anyi with heavy ladders and battering rams hitting the city gate.
"My lord, the Huns have attacked the city!"
On the city tower, the soldiers of the Han family who heard the sound of the horn suddenly trembled, no longer feeling sleepy, and hurriedly reported to the county guard Weiping.
Wei Ping is in his forties this year. He has a square face with single eyelids and a short scholarly beard. He looks quite thin. Under the scholarly appearance, he has the tenacious will of a warrior.
Hearing that the Huns were attacking the city, Wei Ping, who was resting on the desk, opened his eyes immediately.These days, he never went to bed to rest, let alone took off the light armor on his body, and was always ready to fight the Huns to the death.
When the Huns approached the city for the first time, Wei Ping uttered harsh words in front of the soldiers of the two armies. If he wanted to break through the city, he had to step on the body of the sheriff first.
As a result, the defenders of the city were greatly encouraged and their morale was greatly boosted.
When he came to the city tower, Wei Ping leaned on the female wall and looked down. When he saw the Han people in ragged clothes rushing towards the city pushing the siege equipment, Wei Ping's eyes showed a strong color of hatred.
These Huns are really vicious, they actually came up with such a way to attack the city.
"Archer ready!"
Seeing those siege ladders gradually approaching the city, Wei Ping felt ruthless and ordered loudly that no matter who wanted to approach the city, he would have to pay the price in blood.
"My lord, these are unarmed Hedong people!"
Qin Lu, the captain guarding the city, became anxious, and loudly advised: "Maybe some relatives of the soldiers are also inside, the Huns want us to kill each other!"
He can kill the Huns without blinking an eye, but these are all Han people, and they don’t even have a decent armor. They are forced to move forward under the whip of the Huns. cannon fodder.
The soldiers on the city wall also couldn't bear it, and the people were innocent.
"If you just sit like this, you will fall into the arms of the Huns, and you can only watch them break the city! As a local governor, even if I don't have the heart to attack these people, I have to do it. I want I am responsible to the tens of thousands of people in the city, and I must be worthy of the general's trust in me!"
Wei Ping raised his brows and spoke excitedly.
He has always been a person who takes the overall situation into consideration. At this time, he cannot feel pity because it is the Han people who attacked the city.
"My lord, I heard that the reinforcements have arrived not far to the south, and the final general asks to break out of the siege to relieve the siege of Anyi!" Qin Lu did not want to fight with the Han people, so he clasped his fists and asked to break out of the siege.
Wei Ping had also heard about the arrival of the Han army to the south, but he was not sure if it was true or not. He could not be sure that it was a fake news released by the Huns, deliberately trying to lure them out of the city.
What's more, I sent people to break out of the siege many times before, but each time I was chased and killed by the fast horses of the Huns, but none of them succeeded.
"My lord, the general is willing to give it a try, even if he dies!" Qin Lu begged again.
Seeing Qin Lu's firm expression, Wei Ping sighed. Anyway, if he survives, the odds of winning are slim, so it's better to give it a try.
"Okay, I promise you. However, I can only transfer Baiqi to you." Wei Ping said with a little guilt. In the current situation, he really has no extra manpower to send.
"Don't worry, the general will not disappoint your expectations in the end!"
After Qin Lu cupped his hands, he turned and walked down the tower.
The Huns stormed the west gate, so Qin Lu chose the weakest east gate to break through.
The Xiongnu general stationed at the east gate was the extraordinary Wanqi Changyi Qugan. When he saw the gate opened and the Han people rushed out on horseback, he immediately shouted: "My sons, don't let a Han man go, let me kill you!"
Yiqu dared to urge his horse to take the lead, and five thousand Hun soldiers rushed to kill him.
Qin Lu didn't dare to love to fight, and after confronting Yi Qu Gan, he reined in his horse's head and led his people to break through the encirclement.
After a fight, only five or six people escaped successfully.
"General, shall we go after him or not?" His subordinate Qianqichang came over and asked.
"never mind."
Yiqu dared to lick the blood on his hands, grinned the corners of his mouth, and laughed.
If Shanyu hadn't greeted him in advance, he really wanted to wring the general's head off.
After successfully breaking out of the siege, Qin Lu fled south without stopping with a few remaining subordinates.But the land east of the river is vast, and he didn't know where to look for reinforcements for a while.
Fortunately, at this time, he bumped into a sentry of the Wolf Cavalry Battalion who was out on patrol, and took him to Hujia Village, where he met Lu Zhuan, Chen Gong and others.
"Major General, it is imminent, please send troops to rescue Anyi as soon as possible!"
When the soldiers were bandaging their wounds, Qin Lu was very excited. After the Huns captured Xihe County, they slaughtered all the Han people captured in the city, and even used them as rations. He was afraid that Anyi would suffer the same fate.
After learning about the deployment of the Xiongnu's troops from Qin Lu, Lu Zhuan pondered for a moment in his seat. The Huns' army of more than [-] is not a small number. It is ten times the number of their own. In a frontal fight, the outcome is unpredictable.
However, Anyi is the place where Hedong ruled, even if this attack cannot win, at least it can suspend Anyi's urgent need.
Having figured this out, under Qin Lu's eager and expectant eyes, Lu Zhuan nodded and agreed: "General Qin, don't worry, I'm here to drive out the Huns. Commander Li, I trouble you to call the Battalion soldiers, after the assembly is complete, I will personally lead the rescue of Anyi!"
Li Hei said 'yes' and strode out.
"and many more."
Suddenly, Chen Gong stopped Li Hei.
The dark deputy commander turned around and looked at Chen Gong suspiciously, and the other people in the hall also cast suspicious glances.
Chen Gong caressed his chin beard lightly, his eyes flashed with wisdom, and his deep eyes pointed directly at the vital point: "I'm thinking..."
His tone paused, "Could this be a trap deliberately set by the Huns?"
Hearing this, many people in the hall were stunned.
"Why did the military master say that?"
Lu Zhuan also didn't know what was wrong, so he humbly asked for advice.
He respected this military adviser whom his father valued very much, but his brother-in-law made a few nonsense after being drunk, probably saying: This arrogant and upright military adviser Chen, if he died in front of Lv Bu, he would still die. Well, if he dies after Lu Bu, he may not end well.
Of course, Lu Zhuan just listened to this as a joke and didn't take it to heart, let alone mentioned a single word to outsiders.
Although Lu Zhuan was smart, his experience was still inexperienced, and he had never had experience in leading troops in battle before. Most of the sets he used were dead things copied from military books.
Chen Gong is different, he has followed Lu Bu for many years, whether it is internal affairs or strategy, he is a first-class figure in the world, and he has a far-sighted vision than Lu Zhuan.
According to Qin Lu's dictation, Yu Fuluo only stormed Anyi once before, and then there was no movement.If the prediction is correct, Yu Fuluo should be worried about the loss of strength caused by the storming of Anyi. After all, the Huns have only a few people, and the Huns, like the Xianbei, are only good at galloping and fighting, not at attacking cities.
It is almost useless to attack by force with only more than ten thousand Han people captured. Even if Anyi is conquered, it will also cost the lives of many Hun soldiers.
Yuvro shouldn't be so stupid.
Therefore, this time the Huns attacked the city, it should very likely be just an illusion, in order to lure Lu Zhuan to reinforce, and then intercept and kill on the way.
"Then according to what you mean, is to give up reinforcements?"
Qin Lu stood up suddenly, and argued with Chen Gong on the spot: "This is just your conjecture. If the Huns break through Anyi because of this, I will see how you will explain it to the higher authorities!"
He risked his life to come out of the city, not for this kind of result.
"General Qin, don't be in a hurry, just let the military master finish his sentence." Lu Zhuan signaled Qin Lu to sit down. Since Chen Gong had seen through the tricks of the Huns, he would naturally have a countermeasure.
Seeing Lu Zhuan defending himself like this, Chen Gong nodded secretly in his heart, and at the same time, a confident smile appeared on his face: "Since the Huns have evil intentions, why don't we just use the plan?"
