The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

Yes, when he came back to count, he almost vomited blood. He lost [-] soldiers for no apparent reason, and he didn't even know who the enemy was.

Diao Xu is the general guarding the south of Wusun, commanding [-] troops, mainly defending the countries in the Western Regions. Because the countries in the Western Regions are scattered and have no combat power, Diao Xu lives very comfortably. Sun's overlord.

He was originally going to fight Qiufeng, but he didn't expect to encounter such a situation. Diao Xu didn't dare to hide the appearance of a strong enemy, otherwise his elder brother would not be able to keep him.

When Diao Xu was anxiously waiting for the news, scouts came to report that a large group of enemy troops had entered Wusun and were heading straight for this place. The first thing Diao Xu thought of was that group of terrifying troops who did not know where they came from. After more than 1 enemy troops, Diao Xu almost turned around and ran away.

Three thousand can beat him to ten thousand, and now more than ten thousand have come, and he only has fifteen thousand soldiers in his hands, how dare he fight.

"Hurry up, send someone to ask for help, close the city gates, and put everyone on the city wall!"

Diao Xu also wanted to abandon the city, but looking back, there were only more than 1 enemy troops, and he still had enough soldiers and horses. It was not impossible to defend the city. When the reinforcements arrived, repelling the enemy would be a great achievement. No one will pursue his loss of five thousand soldiers and horses.

Soon, Zhang Xiu led the army to Dongketuo. Dongketuo is the city of Wusun next to the Western Regions. Although it is not majestic, it is an important town in the south of Wusun.

"General, our army didn't bring any siege weapons. If we attack by force, we may lose a lot."

Lieutenant General Qianzhao frowned and looked at the heavily guarded Dongketuo, and advised Zhang Xiu not to attack by force. Although Dongketuo is not a big city that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, there are probably tens of thousands of defenders on the tower overnight, so it is not so easy to attack. .

"Bring the map of Wusun Kingdom."

Zhang Xiu also frowned slightly. It is not advisable to attack such a city by force. It is simply a crime to attack such a city without siege weapons.

Soon, a detailed map of Wusun Kingdom was placed in front of Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu found Dongketuo, and then slowly moved his eyes to the north. According to the news from the dark guards, there was another Wusun army more than 200 miles away. There are also more than 2 soldiers and horses, and further north is Chigu City, the current capital of Wusun.

Chigu City is close to the countries of the Western Regions. Wusun is a country that combines nomads and cities. There are very few cities, but they are all very important. Dongketuo is the guard city to the south of Chigu City, the capital of Wusun. As long as Dongketuo is broken, the army can Go directly to Chigu Castle.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Xiu gave up his plan to immediately attack the city, and ordered people to set up camp. At the same time, he sent out cavalry to monitor the surroundings of Dongketuo and surround Dongketuo.

Seeing that Zhang Xiu did not attack the city, Diao Xu heaved a sigh of relief, but he also saw the enemy's banner clearly. When he saw the characters on the banner, he broke into a cold sweat with fright. Others might not know what the characters were, but he As a general, how could he not recognize him.starter

A huge "Han" flag was hung in the army. Diao Xu wanted to scold his mother. If you had hung up this flag earlier, you would have turned around and ran away when you were in the Western Regions. Damn it, he actually met the army of the big Han , but also attacked others.

Big man, back then, Wusun was also one of the vassal states of the big man, and they resisted the Huns together. Later, the Huns were beaten by the big man and fled here and there, and the northern Huns even fled to other places. To slaughter.

But why did the army of the big man come here? It is thousands of miles away from the big man, and there are countries in the Western Regions in the middle.

"The news has to get out."

Diao Xu is not thinking about defeating the enemy now, what he is thinking about is how to save his own life. If the king and his elder brother know that he has caused such a big trouble, they will definitely tear him alive.

It's a pity that Dongketuo is now being monitored by the cavalry of the Han army on all sides. It is difficult to get out the news. Fortunately, the Han army has not attacked, so there is still a chance for peace talks. After all, the Han army only has more than 1 people. They Wusun have Nearly [-] troops.

However, it is not for him alone to decide whether to negotiate peace or not. Diao Xu can only wait for the news.

But after the third day, Diao Xu found that something was wrong. He found that the camp of the Han army was very quiet. Except for the occasional rangers outside the city, no other soldiers and horses showed up.

"not good!"

Suddenly, Diao Xu seemed to have thought of something, and hastily ordered the troops to assemble. He thought of a possibility that the Han army would leave them and go straight to Chigu City. If Chigu City was not prepared, it would be difficult to block the Han army's sneak attack .

Chapter 674 Wusun reinforcements

At this time, on the south side of Tianshan Mountain, a large army was preparing to cross Tianshan Mountain. The leader of the army was Zhang Liao, and Lieutenant General Wenpin was standing beside him.

When Zhang Liao arrived at Weitou, Wenpin's army was not far from Weitou. After Zhang Liao took Weitou, Zhang Xiu's soldiers and horses had not yet arrived. This made Zhang Liao feel puzzled. According to the battle reports Zhang Xiu kept sending Look, Zhang Xiu's soldiers and horses should have arrived at Weitou before him.

But soon, Zhang Liao received an urgent report sent by Zhang Xiu. After learning that Zhang Xiu had led troops into Wusun, he almost vomited blood. They did not receive the order to attack Wusun. It is a private action.

"Come here, order Wenpin to quickly lead the troops to join me!"

After Zhang Liao thought for a while, he made a decision. At the same time as ordering Wenpin, he wrote an urgent letter to Luoyang. He could not let Zhang Xiu ignore him.

Then Zhang Liao gave up his original plan, and the army turned to go north. As for the remaining Shuqin, Xiuyu, and Donate countries, we can only wait for them to come back from Wusun. These three countries are the westernmost countries in the Western Regions, and their strength is not good. , can't threaten the big man at all.

Zhang Liao led the army to enter the Tianshan Mountains, and the outside of Dongketuo city was already full of killing noise. Unfortunately, Diao Xu fell into Zhang Xiu's trick. Diao Xu, who had just led the army into Zhang Xiu's camp, was killed by the Han army regiments from all directions. surrounded.

"Damn!"

Diao Xu wanted to die now, the Han people were too cunning, he thought it was an empty camp, and planned to burn down the camp before chasing the Han army, so as to reduce his guilt.

But what Diao Xu didn't expect was that the Han army didn't rush to Chigu City at all, but waited here for him to die.

"Kill it out!"

Diao Xu can only do his best now, otherwise he will surely die. As for surrender, just look at the man-eating appearance of the enemy general with a gun in the distance, and he will have no good results if he surrenders.

"kill!"

The encirclement and annihilation war began, and Diao Xu's army was surrounded. The army's morale had long been unstable, and its combat effectiveness was not as good as that of the Han army. How could it be possible to block the opponents of the Han army who had the absolute advantage?

"drop!"

"Kneel down!"

While killing, the Han army yelled for them to surrender. Although they didn't understand the language very well, the enemy probably knew what it meant. Many people lost their will to continue resisting and began to surrender on their knees.

Then more and more people kneeled down, because the Han army did not kill those who kneeled and surrendered. Seeing this, Diao Xu was furious and killed several kneeling soldiers, and then led his men to rush out.

Zhang Xiu happened to be rushing to block the way.

"Die!"

Zhang Xiu was very impressed with Diao Xu, how could he let Diao Xu go?

"clang!"

The scimitar in Diao Xu's hand split open Zhang Xiu's spear, and blocked Zhang Xiu's attack several times in a row. It has to be said that Diao Xu is indeed a bit capable. Among the Western Regions, Zhang Xiu has never encountered such an opponent as Diao Xu.

It's a pity that Diao Xu is still a little worse than Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu is the number one fierce general among the big men like clouds, and Diao Xu can resist it.

"Go to hell!"

Zhang Xiu seized a loophole in Diao Xu's and stabbed Diao Xu in the chest with a single shot. Diao Xu dared not fall off his horse, and Wusun's general died under Zhang Xiu's spear.

Diao Xu died in battle, and his soldiers and horses lost their command, and they knelt down and surrendered.

Zhang Xiu really wanted to order the massacre of everyone, but he was the commander in chief after all. After taking a deep breath, he ordered that all the surrendered troops be tied up.

Slaughtering the aristocrats is fine, but killing surrendered soldiers and common people is another matter. After all, the big man still wants to rule more places, so he can't draw too much hatred, especially not form an insoluble hatred with the common people.

Diao Xu died in battle, all [-] Wusun soldiers and horses were wiped out, Dongketuo easily fell into Zhang Xiu's hands, and a lot of food was obtained in Dongketuo City, which was enough for Zhang Xiu's army for a period of time.

"Report!"

"[-] enemy troops were found fifty miles to the north, heading towards Dongketuo City..."

When Zhang Xiu, who had just finished repairing, was thinking about what to do next, the enemy's reinforcements arrived, but unfortunately they came one step late.
