Hanhou

Xu Buyong uttered bold words, but the reality gave him a big slap.

The burrows stretching for several miles, together with the rows of ditches behind the burrows, formed a moat to stop the cavalry.Facing such a trap, no matter how good a horse or cavalry is, they all have to kneel.

Xu Buyong went crazy because of the loss of his son, but the Qianchang and Baichang under his command were not confused.Seeing that the situation was wrong, he hurriedly stopped Xu Buyong, and proposed to bypass the trap and rush into the livestock farm from the side.

For cavalry, the distance of a few miles is nothing at all.As long as you avoid the holes and trenches, a piece of wooden fence and houses can easily go down.Even if you can't attack, you can set fire to it.As long as you enter Shaling County, do you still have to worry about having nowhere to loot?

"You are in charge, King Zuoguli has an order, don't be reckless!" Seeing that Xu Buyong refused to listen to his persuasion, Qianchang had no choice but to sacrifice Yi Zhixie.

Hearing Yi Zhixie's name, Xu Buyong's feverish head cooled down slightly, suppressed his anger, and sent cavalry to both sides of the cave, searching for a path that could accommodate the horses.

In the livestock farm, through the watchtower on the roof, Qing Zhuang quickly discovered the Huns' intentions.

"Lang Jun, the Huns have to make a detour!"

"Catapult!" An arrow hit the target, Zhao Jia's palms stopped sweating, and his beating heart began to recover, "Leave the released cavalry to Uncle Xiong!"

"promise!"

Qing Zhuang responded, picked up the improvised flag, and waved it vigorously several times.

Uncle Xiong was the first to strike, and the young and healthy women drew their bows at the same time, the sounds of stringing were overlapping, and the next moment the arrows rained down, covering the dozen or so horsemen who galloped out first.

Before the Huns were furious, there was another burst of wind, and the catapults in the livestock farm began to show their power. Stones the size of a man's head flew into the air, roared over the burrow dug by the marmots, and smashed into the Huns cavalry.

He never expected that there would be a catapult in an unremarkable livestock farm. Hu Qi was completely unprepared and unable to dodge in time. In the first wave of stone rain, several cavalrymen were hit and fell off their horses.One of them was hit on the head, and the man and the horse were crushed under the stones, almost turning into a puddle of flesh.

"Why is there a catapult here?!" Xu Puyong was taken aback.

Zhao Jia didn't give the Huns a chance to react at all, and ordered the young and strong women to take turns to shoot their bows, and the catapults kept coming.According to visual estimation, there are at least 3000 Huqi. With the manpower in the livestock farm, the chance of winning in close combat is almost zero. They can only use traps and long-range weapons to fight. Try your best to kill as many as you can!

"Lang Jun, the Huns are retreating!"

Qing Zhuang on the observation deck shouted.

Zhao Jia quickly climbed up the wooden ladder, seeing the actions of the Huns, he was not happy, but more worried.

"Stop the bow and arrow, and continue to release the catapult! Put the craftsman-made launcher to the west, and the Xiongnu will probably come from there!" Zhao Jia shouted.

The Huns were careless and did not understand the strength of the livestock farm, so they suffered a big loss as soon as they met.

Xu Buyong calmed down, knowing that he could not be reckless, and immediately ordered to retreat, exiting the coverage of the catapults and bows and arrows, then turned around and moved westward along the burrow dug by the marmot.

There is an elm forest there, even if you can't get around the hole, you can cut logs and press it on the top of the hole to force your way over the trap.

The intention of the Huns was obvious, without Zhao Jiaduo's instructions, the young and healthy women moved quickly, and even the gray-haired craftsmen tied their short brown ropes to their shoulders to help drag the catapults and launch them. cylinder.

There is a watchtower in the livestock farm, which can observe every move of the Huns cavalry.When the Huns let out their horses, they could also see young men and women dragging strange wooden utensils.Even if the cavalry couldn't find it and released a black eagle to hover in the sky, they could still tell where the people in the farm were concentrated.

After making sure that the distance was not too far, Hu Qi let out a smirk, and immediately shot upwards.The arrow streaked through the air, and fell into the livestock farm with a sharp sound of breaking the wind.Three people were hit by arrows and fell to the ground on the spot. Even if they were not fatally injured, they could not continue to participate in the battle.

"Send people into the cabin!" Zhao Jia yelled.

Wherever the black eagle hovered, Hu Qi's arrow rain flew there.

Everyone tried to shoot down the black hawks, but there were as many as three black hawks, they flew very high, and their movements were extremely flexible. Except for Xiong Bo and Hu Bo, it was difficult for others to shoot the target.

At this moment, a high-pitched cry came, and a golden-brown figure rushed out of the clouds and plunged into the circling eagles.

"Ah Jin! It's Ajin!" Zhao Puonu wiped the dust and sweat off his face with his backhand, pointing at the sky and shouting.

"Don't call, come and help!" Zhao Xinxin patted Zhao Ponu on the head forcefully.

Taking advantage of the black eagle being entangled by the golden eagle, everyone seized the opportunity and moved two catapults and more than a dozen launch tubes to the west side of the livestock farm one after another.Just in case, Zhao Jia assigned some people to transport the remaining launch tubes to the east side of the livestock farm.

The launch tubes are made of hollowed out tree trunks, and they all have thick upper arms.There is a mechanism set by craftsmen at the bottom, step on the pedal, and the poisonous smoke tube and throwing gun loaded in it will be launched immediately, and the flying distance can reach two or three times that of human throwing.

The launching tubes were lined up, and Qing Zhuang erected a large plank with the help of the fence.Zhao Jia had ordered three carts to be placed here in order to prevent the Huns from taking a detour to attack the livestock farm.

In the sky, the golden eagle was pinned by a black eagle, and could not break free. It was attacked by two other black eagles, and the situation was dangerous.

Zhao Jiadeng went to the watchtower, ignoring the bone arrows flying by, fully drew the bowstring, and aimed at the black eagle that locked the golden eagle.Wei Qingmo drew his bow at the same time, and released the arrow one step ahead of Zhao Jia.

Two sharp arrows roared, one pierced the black eagle's wings, and the other pierced its neck.

The golden eagle screamed, threw off the dead black eagle, and turned to attack the other two black eagles.It was very annoyed at being locked with its claws before and could only be beaten passively, but when it turned around, it became even more ferocious.

"Sister, I'll shoot the one on the left!" Zhao Jia shouted from above.

"Okay... be careful!" Wei Qing'er raised his head, saw two bone arrows coming, and immediately reminded him loudly.

Zhao Jia instinctively leaned back to avoid the oncoming arrows, straightened up, looked in the direction of the bone arrows, and found that it was a Hun chieftain wearing a bone helmet, immediately sneered, turned the arrow in his hand, He shot at the opponent.

The Xiongnu Baichang shot an arrow and fell off the horse, Wei Qingmoth shot a black eagle, and the remaining one was caught by the golden eagle and broke its wings. It flapped its wings desperately, but fell from the sky uncontrollably, and soon fell to the ground without a sound. .

The golden eagle uttered a triumphant cry, not paying attention to its bald back, and swooped towards the Huns.He easily avoided the incoming arrows halfway, and even flew one with his wings after raising the altitude, as if he was contemptuous of the poor weapons and equipment of the Huns, even a bone arrow wanted to hit the uncle!

Even if the flying distance of the arrow is limited, at the end of the crossbow, and the successor is weak, such a performance is really out of the "normal" category.

Thinking of the reed chicken that opened its wings and fought with the raptor, Zhao Jia felt that he was making a fuss again.The species of the Han Dynasty are so tough, there is no reason for it.

Losing the guidance of the black eagle and being blocked by fences and wooden boards, the arrows of the Huns cavalry began to lose their aim.With the help of cover, young men and women take turns to open their bows. Even if they use wooden arrows, they are not as lethal as the strong bows and iron arrows of the frontier army, and they can still cause a lot of casualties to Hu Qi.

If you can't hit a man, shoot a horse!

The war horse is suffering from pain and goes crazy, but it can still make these robbers look good!

Zhao Jia drew the bow again and again, and touched the empty quiver with his hand back, only to realize that he had shot two arrows empty, his wrist was sore, his palms and fingers were numb, his thumb was strangled with bleeding marks, and he almost lost consciousness.

"Lang Jun, the Huns are coming!"

Qing Zhuang roared, Zhao Jia rubbed his wrist vigorously, grabbed another pot of arrows, and ran to the west side of the livestock farm.

"Lang Jun, there are Huns in the east!" Ah Man shouted loudly.

Zhao Jia stopped in his tracks, seeing Wei Qing and a few three-headed bodies following the young man, immediately frowned and said, "Didn't I let you stay in the wooden house?"

"Lang Jun, we can help!" Wei Qing and San Tou dragged the trailer with Yi Gong on their backs.

Knowing that the situation was urgent, Zhao Jia didn't have time to say more, and handed over the defense of the west side of the livestock farm to Uncle Xiong and Uncle Hu, and took the rest of the young and strong women to the east side of the livestock farm.

"Help me carry the bow and arrow, don't come forward!" Zhao Jia shouted.

Wei Qing and the three men promised loudly, dragged the trailer and ran across the livestock farm, grabbed a large bundle of bows and arrows, grabbed more than a dozen poisonous smoke tubes, tied them with ropes, and chased after Zhao Jia at the fastest speed.

In a wooden house, Wei Juan wets a wooden handkerchief in water, wipes the young and strong wound, applies wound medicine, and then wraps it with a cloth strip.Just as she was sending the blood out of the house, she suddenly saw Wei Ling's eldest son carrying a bundle, acting furtively, as if he wanted to sneak out of the livestock farm.

The girl didn't make a sound, and poured blood on the young man on the spot, her expression was extremely cold.

The young man wiped away the blood on his face, and looked at Wei Juan, his eyes became fierce.Just as he was about to draw his knife and move forward, an arrow suddenly pierced his feet, and the young man's movements froze.

Wei Chuan and Wei Ling rushed to them one after another. Both of them carried arrow pots on their backs and daggers on their waists. Wei Chuan's arm was tied with a coarse cloth, which was already soaked with blood.

"Ah Weng..." Wei Ling's eldest son turned pale.

"Don't call me Ah Weng!" Wei Ling said angrily, "I don't have a son like you!"

"Aon, I don't want to die!"

"Run if you don't want to die? Turn around and run instead of fighting the Huns?!" Wei Ling spat fiercely, "Even scoundrels and criminals can't do such a shameful thing!" He knew what kind of guy he was , but no matter how greedy and shameless, cowardly and life-threatening, he would not turn around and run away when he met the Huns!

"Take up the knife and fight the Huns with your life, or I will shoot you to death with one arrow!" Wei Ling became cruel, and opened the bow in his hand.

Wei Chuan sneered, seeing Wei Juan standing pretty by the door, he raised his voice and said, "Ajuan, wait for Ah Weng to chop off a few more heads of the Huns, and come to the city to exchange silk cloth for you!"

Since the big change, Wei Chuan's temperament has become distorted, and he will go crazy when he sees bloody.

"I'm waiting for Ah Weng to give me the silk cloth." The girl smiled happily, glanced at Wei Ling's eldest son, with a contemptuous expression, but said in her mouth, "Uncle, my brother was scared out of his nerve by the Huns, and he may not be able to draw his bow even if he pulls him over by force." , but even more embarrassing, why not stay and take care of the wounded with me."

"What if he runs away again?" Wei Ling said forcefully.

"No need to worry." The girl smiled and stepped forward, pulled out the wooden hairpin from her hair, and plunged into the young man's thigh.When the latter wailed, the plain hand twisted vigorously, tearing the wound even further.

"In this way, brother can't run away."

"Good girl!" Wei Chuan grinned like a wild wolf.

Hearing his son's screams, Wei Ling's expression did not loosen in the slightest. He found all the weapons on his body, then jumped on his horse, and galloped towards the east side of the livestock farm together with Wei Chuan.

After the two left, Gongsun Ao walked out from the side of the wooden house, Wei Juan turned to look at him, and said softly, "Ao Ke still likes me?"

"Happy!" Gongsun Ao nodded vigorously, grabbed the young man, dragged him into the house, worried, kicked one of the young man's wrists off, and said, "When I am old enough, I will propose marriage to Uncle Wei!"

"Okay." The girl nodded with a smile, watched Gongsun Ao leave the wooden house, and turned to look at the young man, as if looking at a dead person.

On the west side of the livestock farm, the Xiongnu broke through the trap and was suddenly covered by a large area of ​​spears. They failed to rush into the fence as expected, but were abruptly stopped two hundred paces away, unable to rush through no matter what.

On the east side of the livestock farm, Zhao Jia and Qing Zhuang kept drawing their bows, throwing spears and poisonous smoke pipes in turn, finally repelling the first wave of Hu Qi.However, as the poisonous chimneys gradually ran out, the effect of throwing guns became less and less effective. Some Huns began to break through the fence and almost rushed in front of Zhao Jia.

"Lang Jun, be careful!" Wei Ji swept his long stick across the horse's back, and two young men raised their long knives and chopped off the head of the Huns on the spot.

"Lang Jun, it's impossible to go on like this!" Wei Ji said loudly.

Zhao Jia opened the bow again, the bowstring was taut, already covered with a layer of dark red blood.The arrow flew out and shot the leading Hu Qi off the horse. Regardless of the wound on his hand, Zhao Jia called out the children who came to help, and told them to go to the fence and untie all the camels.

"Shoot the gun!"

Seeing Hu Qi rushing up again, several young and strong men used their bodies as shields to protect Zhao Jia, and died in an instant. Zhao Jia couldn't help but his eyes were bloodshot, and he shouted: "Leave me alone! Shoot the arrow! Get on the horse!"

The Huns' offensive became more and more fierce, not only the east side of the livestock farm, but also the situation on the west side became precarious.

Seeing the livestock farm close at hand, Xu Buyong let out a sneer, waving his bones to kill him.

Unexpectedly, more than 20 camels suddenly rushed out of the fence, and several women and teenagers rode on the camels' backs, waving the reins vigorously and making whistles of different lengths.

The leading camel suddenly accelerated, like a hill, and slammed into Hu Qi on the opposite side.

Neither the woman nor the young man held a knife, but a long stick, and when they passed by, they swept Hu Qi off his horse.Because the camel rushed out suddenly, the battlefield was in chaos. As long as it fell from the horse's back, even if it didn't die on the spot, it would be trampled into flesh by the hoof the next moment.

Hu Qi's numerical advantage turned into a disadvantage, and the 200 people rushing to the front were in a mess.

"Camel riding?" Xu Bu Yong's face was gloomy, seeing that there were only twenty camels rushing out, he immediately ordered Hu Qi to open his strong bow.

"Use iron arrows!"

To deal with camel riding, the Huns have their own tactics.

"Aduo, charge up!" Wei Qingmo rode over, the quiver was shot empty, and the short knife was tied to his hand with a cloth strip, "It's one person who can be killed! If they rush over the fence, everyone in the livestock farm will die!" To suffer!"

The livestock farms cannot be defended, and the villages may not be able to defend them. Thousands of Hun cavalry cross the border, and the entire Shaling County will be reduced to ruins.

"Okay!" Zhao Jia gritted his teeth, and leapt onto the bay red horse, including Zhao Xin, Gongsun Ao and other teenagers, all with weapons in their hands, ready to fight desperately with Hu Qi on the opposite side.

At this moment, a burst of shouting and killing suddenly came.

Everyone followed the prestige and found that it was He Lao who led the villagers to rush up.

Young and strong, women and even the elderly all had weapons in their hands. Facing the Hun cavalry, they showed no trace of fear on their faces. They tried their best to move their mounts. middle.

If you don't let me live, then you don't want to live either!

Zhao Jia saved the lives of the whole village, as long as there is still breath, they will never allow Zhao Jia to make any mistakes, let alone allow robbers to break into the house and set fire to it!

"Old Crane!"

The old man with gray hair, the man carrying Lei Lei in the field, the woman who used a wooden stick to teach a lazy woman, the young man who hugged a lamb and laughed heartily...all of them were dyed blood red in an instant. Jia's eyes.

"kill!"

Zhao Jia drew out his dagger, and the red horse raised its hooves and neighed.

"kill!"

The young and young followed closely behind Zhao Jia, and the young girl also had a delicate face and tensed up. She rode her horse and merged into the charging team, followed by Zhao Jia who was the leader, and ruthlessly slammed into the Hu cavalry.

The Huns thought they were facing a group of lambs, but they didn't know that when the blade swung down, what landed on their throats were sharp teeth, enough to bite their bones to pieces.
