After hearing the narration, Qin Huaidao's expression changed greatly. He did not expect that there was such a secret, and said solemnly: "Xu Shibo doesn't need to be like this. They died to protect the people. They are national heroes. They died a worthy death, which is worth singing and crying. I will never allow anyone to humiliate or unjustly accuse this person." Justice, I will definitely get it back!"
A word that speaks loudly.
"Thank you, King Han."
Xu Shiji was overjoyed and saluted solemnly, with tears rolling down his eyes, and murmured to himself: "Brothers, with the help of the King of Han, your revenge will be at hand."
"Xu Shibo's words are serious. You are also a hero. Even if you don't obey the order of chaos, I will have people write a book to give everyone justice, and history will remember everyone." Qin Huaidao said seriously.
"The King of Han is so righteous and I have nothing to repay him for. There are only three hundred remaining soldiers left behind. From now on, only the King of Han will follow his lead. If he violates this oath, he will be punished by heaven and earth." Xu Shiji said solemnly.
"Thank you for your trust, General Xu. With the help of the general, I am no less powerful than a hundred thousand troops. This king is more powerful than a tiger." Qin Huaidao was overjoyed. Xu Shiji was as handsome as Li Jing. He quickly made a decision in his heart and continued: "This king's military system Different from the imperial court, how about you get familiar with me first, and then entrust you with important tasks? The three hundred surviving soldiers will follow you as your own army from now on."
"It all depends on the arrangement of the King of Han. Even if you arrange a small soldier, you will be happy with it."
"General Xu is so handsome, how can I bury it? Yesterday I happened to meet General Xue Wanche. The situation was opposite to yours. After the defeat, he was chased by Tubo. He survived alone and was temporarily appointed as a staff officer under my account. You are going back to Hanzhou to recuperate for a while. Or should you go with the army and serve as a temporary staff officer like Xue Wanche?"
"I am willing to go with the army and do the hard work of dogs and horses." Xu Shiji said solemnly. If he wanted to take revenge, why would he be willing to go to Hanzhou to train? As for what staff officer's position is and what he does specifically, that is not important.
"That's fine!"
Qin Huaidao took Xu Shiji back to the formation and called Xue Wanche out. The two were old acquaintances and talked to each other about their experiences, sighing.
It was almost noon, Qin Huaidao simply let the army stop to rest and prepare lunch.
After the big tent was set up, everyone sat around in the big tent and chatted for a few words. Qin Huaidao explained the rules and military system of the Han army in detail to prevent Xu Shiji from being uncomfortable and unable to keep up.
Xu Shiji had been a soldier all his life, and he knew everything about it. He immediately realized the difference and beauty of the military system. He asked many details, and each one was on the key points. When he understood everything, he praised him repeatedly after he understood it.
What a great conversation.
After eating and drinking, Xu Shiji asked the biggest doubt in his heart: "King Han, the warriors don't know how to fight, but with the help of two veteran generals, plus reinforcements from various states, the defense of the Great Wall will not be a big problem, and it will be difficult for the Turks to break through. , but the Tubo are ambitious and more difficult to deal with than the Turks. There is no natural danger to defend. I am afraid that they have already invaded Chang'an. How will the Hanzhou Army deal with it next?"
"Are you worried that I won't be able to attack the court and seek justice for the soldiers?" Qin Huaidao pointed it out directly. When Xu Shiji nodded calmly, he continued: "Justice is the biggest reason. If the new king refuses to accept, just spank him. , don’t forget that I am his royal brother-in-law.”
"Hahaha, thank you King Han." Xu Shiji smiled, completely relieved.
Xue Wanche, on the other hand, remained silent with a cold face. Qin Huaidao smiled and said, "General Xue, are you worried about His Majesty?"
"King Han, is it possible that the Holy One is all right? If you don't let him, Niu Jinda can't turn to the prince. That old cow has a stubborn temper and would rather die than obey. I don't understand." Xue Wanche said bluntly.
"Never mind it, you'll know when you see someone and ask. We're going to break camp and go on the road. We need to speed up and send more scouts." Qin Huaidao said and looked at Luo Wu.
Luo Wu cupped his fists and saluted, and hurriedly went to make arrangements.
…
Ten days later.
Luo Zhang led the vanguard army to the city of Jincheng County. The scouts had already figured out the situation. There were about 5,000 Tibetan troops left behind in the city. After taking Jincheng County, they could go east to Chang'an, north to the grasslands, and south to the city.
Tuyuhun can be said to be full of life.
The city is tall and strong, and it is difficult to conquer it in one fell swoop, but it is different when there are explosive packs.
A scout came galloping on horseback: "General, no trace of the enemy has been found within ten miles. Our brothers are expanding the scope of investigation."
"Expand the investigation by twenty miles and report back at any time." Luo Zhang warned, turning to look into the void.
The sun is high in the sky and there are no clouds in the sky. It is a good time to attack.
"Send the order!"
Luo Zhang glared and said with murderous intent: "I ordered Liu Wei to lead his troops to concentrate their crossbows to suppress the city wall and not allow the enemy to show their heads. He ordered Zhejia to lead his troops to prepare for the attack. Once the city is broken, they will rush in and not a single Tibetan will be left behind."
, Guards Camp, bring me explosive packs to blow up the city gate."
"Understood!" Everyone agreed.
The order spread quickly, and a murderous atmosphere broke out.
When other armies attack a city, their cavalry is useless and they rely entirely on building ladders and using human lives to pile up. Unlike the Hanzhou Army, they have powerful weapons such as explosive packs, and their tactics also change accordingly.
The Tibetan people on the city wall did not know that their death was coming, and they were holding their bows and arrows with murderous intent, preparing for a battle. The general even loudly encouraged the soldiers: "Tibetan warriors, we have a strong city in hand, and we have endless supplies.
Sharp arrows, I heard that the Hanzhou Army is very good at fighting, so we will teach the Hanzhou Army how to fight, so that they know what it means to be truly capable of fighting, so they all draw their bows, aim and shoot!"
"Hahaha!"
"My lord is mighty!"
Everyone laughed and their morale was high.
Without a ladder to climb, it was impossible to get up to the top of the city. To get up there would be to die. The Tibetan soldiers were very relaxed.
Soon, the Tibetan soldiers saw a group of people approaching and stopped at the shooting range. Just as they were about to open their bows and shoot arrows, they saw a dense cloud of crossbow arrows roaring towards them, covering the sky and blocking out the sun.
Not only was the Tubo general not in a hurry, but he laughed excitedly and said: "Hahaha, the Hanzhou army is stupid. They actually use crossbow arrows. The crossbow arrows are fired directly and are blocked by walls. Everyone has hidden them, so there will be no worries."
"Hahaha."
Everyone laughed excitedly and crouched down to avoid it.
Crossbow bolts passed over everyone's heads. The crossbow bolts were not feathered arrows and could not be thrown. They fell vertically from the sky to kill the enemy. They could only be fired directly. They were blocked by the thick city wall and could not hurt the Tibetan army hidden behind the wall.
After one wave of crossbow arrows passed by, another wave came roaring.
The Tibetan army was very relaxed hiding under the city wall, joking with each other, and laughing at Hanzhou's wasted crossbow shooting style. They were relaxed and had no sense of tension during the war. They had no idea that a small team was rushing to the city gate.
The crossbow bolts stopped firing.
The Tibetan soldiers were not in a hurry to show up. The city wall was tall and could not be climbed up without a ladder, so they were not worried at all. After waiting for a while, they carefully looked through the wall and saw that the Hanzhou army was not attacking. Everyone laughed and cursed loudly.
Ridiculous, emotional.
The Tubo general felt a little uneasy for no reason. The Hanzhou army was not stupid and could not waste crossbow bolts indiscriminately. There must be a reason. What could it be?
"boom!"
Suddenly, a huge explosion sounded, like thunder, shaking the world.
Immediately afterwards, the people on the city wall felt like an earth dragon turning over, swaying this way and that, and before they could react, they saw the Hanzhou Army in front roaring like a mountain and a tsunami. Then, the cavalry roared in, like water from a flood discharge.
The waves are turbulent and unstoppable.
"Cavalry charges, are they crazy?" Many people shouted in disbelief.
What can a cavalry charge do, but commit suicide by crashing into the city wall?
The Tubo army was stunned for a moment. They stared intently at the advancing Hanzhou army, forgetting to fight back and not realizing that the ground was no longer shaking. It was really against common sense.
Suddenly, a panicked voice exploded - "No, the city gate is broken, the city gate is broken."
The city gate is thick and strong, how could it be broken?
The Tubo troops followed the sound and found a man shouting under the city gate. He rushed up the city wall like a madman and shouted: "Sir, it's not good, the city gate is broken!"
"You're talking nonsense. How could the city gate be broken? If you dare to disturb the morale of the army again, I'll chop off your head." The general roared angrily, feeling more uneasy in his heart. He quickly rushed down the steps to the city wall, preparing to check.
"kill--"
A roar, as powerful as a rainbow.
Immediately afterwards, countless people rushed up from the city gate, and the leading general even raised a big sword and struck the barrier.
The Turkic leader was caught off guard and quickly took two steps back to dodge.
However, the sword suddenly changed its trajectory and became a horizontal slash. The Turkic warrior was so frightened that he fell back and rolled like a lazy donkey. Before he could get up, he saw a large number of cavalry approaching, trampled by war horses, as dense as rain.
"ah--"
A war horse rushed over and stepped on the sole of the Turkic general's foot, causing him great pain.
Before he could dodge, another group of war horses rushed up and knocked the Turkic general away, causing him to fall to the ground.
"Boom, boom!"
The war horses galloped over and trampled over the Turkic general, immediately trampling the man into a pulp and dying with his eyes open.
"Kill in, leave no one behind!"
Zhejia's broadsword pointed forward, his momentum like a rainbow.
