The silent horizon was cracked by streaks of lightning of various colors, and the sound of hoofbeats swept across the world like the drums played by a military band. After getting rid of the baggage that slowed down the march, the Xianbei people, who had resumed their normal marching speed, quickly appeared.
Li Shicheng
In the watchman's field of vision, as the alarm bell rang throughout Lishi City, the Lishi defenders who had been waiting for many days quickly entered the position they should be in, and quietly and methodically began to make the last steps before the war.
Prepare.
In a short while, Helian and his army lined up neatly outside Lishi City. From the city wall, it was really dark, but the veterans who had experienced last year's offensive and defensive war were now
But my heart will no longer be as nervous as before.
He Lian, who stopped his horse, looked at the city in front of him quietly. His expression was not as calm as the quiet war horse under his crotch. He was angry, admiring, anxious, and fighting spirit... the guard of the city in front of him.
It brought him too many surprises.
In fact, when he was just preparing to go south, Helian didn't pay much attention to the manager of the city in front of him - he was just a child under fifteen years old. Maybe he had a fairly dexterous mouth and a rather smart person.
His mind can convince the adults to look at him with admiration. But the role of language on the battlefield needs strength to back it up, but how can a child know this kind of thing? These all require the experience of success or failure again and again.
I came to understand it slowly.
As for those noteworthy people and companies in Lishi City, they are completely disdainful to know, because the incompetence of one general affects the entire army. No matter how outstanding his men are, their coach is still a man who has not yet grown up.
child.
He even thought at the beginning that as long as he slowly gathered the troops together, and then arranged them neatly one by one, and showed off their power at the gate of Lishi City, then the fledgling little guy would definitely be intimidated by such a big momentum, and then he would just
You need to send an ordinary messenger to convey your gift of allowing them to surrender, and the other party will agree with fear.
Although the other party was also here last year and defeated tens of thousands of Jie people's army on this city wall, but in He Lian's view, how could the Jie people's low combat effectiveness be compared with the powerful Xianbei army?
?
However, after the sneak attack at the Xihe border, He Lian knew that the other party was not as incompetent as he imagined. Perhaps the other party was indeed still young and inexperienced, but the other party's mind was still enough to lead to a major battle for his side.
damage.
However, Helian still sent an envoy to persuade him to surrender. In his opinion, although the other party gave us a big surprise with his flexible mind and familiarity with the terrain, it was just a trick used by the Han people. And the other party
Only when he faces the tens of thousands of elites under his command openly and openly will the other party understand his naivety and the powerlessness of his wisdom in the face of absolute power.
Of course, it does not rule out the possibility that the other party intends to win and seek peace. After all, there are many such examples on the grassland. The benefits of doing so are also obvious. Through victory, the other party can realize its own value and then occupy a more favorable position in the covenant.
.
If that's really the case, then this little guy is worthy of attention, and he might be able to compete with the noisy guy who always hinders my great cause. He Lian still seems to have some illusions.
It's just that the reality is cruel. Just like the envoy Shi Le sent out to persuade him to surrender, the envoy who went to Lishi to persuade him to surrender this time still died at the foot of Lishi City. But compared with the last time Huang Zhong performed a one-man show, this time
Under Li Shushi's instruction, General Xihe only had confidence in his bow and arrow skills.
They all aimed a volley at the envoy, and the poor envoy naturally turned into a "porcupine" with its body covered like a hedgehog. Apparently, General Xihe had considerable experience in bow and arrow, a reserved training subject for the Han army.
At such a level, even the arrows of Cheng Yu and Lu Zhi were on the corpse of the messenger.
"Shameless Han people, you dare to treat my subordinates like this. I will make you regret what you did today!!!"
Another guy who was so angry that he laughed because Li Shushi killed the envoy. But compared to the 30% true anger and 70% performance of Li Shushi's incomprehensible style in the previous life, this time He Lian was really furious.
Not to mention him, even the leaders of other tribes in the Xianbei army were very dissatisfied with Li Shushi's decisive behavior, especially a certain leader who was very sulky.
Because of Li Shushi's move, the two sides immediately became sworn enemies. However, considering the other party's actions in Gaolang City, and the fact that Li Shicheng had successfully incited national hatred through this incident, he did not care whether the other party planned to fight with him or not.
No matter how hard you fight, the result will be the same - the city will remain and the people will die, but the city will be destroyed and people will die.
Therefore, Li Shushi's order not only did not make his own side feel that he lacked grace, but also caused a round of applause from the top of Lishi City. Besides, didn't you see that even a humble gentleman like Lu Zhi couldn't help but shoot an arrow in response to Li Shushi's call?
Rilu Deyan still continues to play the role of dissuader he has played along the way for a long time: "Please Shanyu, please don't underestimate those Han people. Even if they don't need to be resourceful, their iron bows and arrows are more powerful than our bone arrows."
, please be careful.”
It's not that He Lian is unclear about the mature words deduced by Ritsu, but he is the co-leader of Xianbei. He always admits like a child that what the other party says is right and does what the other party says. Then he and Lian
Where's the prestige? Why don't you just push it?
The co-leader of the various ministries in Xianbei was healed. As a result, the conflict between Helian and Rilu Deyou became more and more serious. Although it had been alleviated because Rilv Deyou saved Helian's life at the border of Xihe.
, but it is fundamentally irreconcilable.
"I'm talking about Japanese law deduction. I remember you are only in your thirties. Why do you talk like an old man? Or are you actually scared to death by that little sneak attack by the Han people?"
He Lian's words were a bit harsh, but they still aroused laughter from the surrounding Xianbei tribe leaders. Because of Rilu's deduction, the position of leader of the western Xianbei tribes who was appointed by Tan Shihuai is really too enviable.
, everyone expressed to He Lian that they were definitely not as afraid of death as Ritsu Deyan, and hoped that He Lian could send themselves to fight, hoping to please He Lian in the hope that they could replace Ritsu Deyan and become the owner of the coveted seat.
"Give me ten thousand soldiers and horses, and I can easily capture Lishi City."
The most active person among them was Tuoba Jiefen, the leader of the Tuoba tribe who had just moved south from Mobei.
If we say that the tribe that has gone south so far is the most disappointing, then the Tuoba tribe is definitely qualified to run.
Although there were still six thousand resentful souls wandering there during the battle at the Xihe border, they were all born into small tribes and were originally abandoned sons used by He Lian to explore the way. Even if they were lost, the status of those small tribes would not be the same.
It will rise and not fall because of this, because they are originally a group of dependents and have become accustomed to that kind of life, so they will not be greatly affected by this.
But the Tuoba tribe is different. In order to establish merit and improve the status of his tribe in the eyes of He Lian and the prestige among the surrounding tribes, Tuoba Jiefen, as the leader, can be said to have brought out all the elites in the tribe.
.
As a result, in the battle on the Xihe border, all three thousand elite soldiers were wiped out. Well, this was a bit painful for the Tuoba tribe, which had a large population and was considered to be wealthy, but it was not an irreparable loss. But the bad thing was the Tuoba tribe.
In order to let his son stand out, Bajiefen sent all the rare professions such as shaman and witch doctor among the three thousand people. The result...
A shaman's bloodthirsty spell alone can turn decay into magic when two armies are fighting, such as the humanoid lawn mower Tong Yuan, and even a witch doctor who can only use poison can also use it on the battlefield.
It has a miraculous effect, just like Jia Xu's poisonous smoke storm that made the Xianbei people collectively smell the pain, and the witch doctors who can heal diseases are even more valuable.
But judging from this, they are indeed the Han people who like to use their brains more. Li Shushi, Jia Xu and Su Xiaoluoli used these three trump cards vividly. It is no wonder that after the shamans and witch doctors were captured, they not only did not resist but turned to the teacher
The look of learning.
Of course, this is a digression, let’s get back to the main topic.
By the way, if it weren't for the fact that he was leading the team with his precious son, Tuoba Jiefen would really have murderous thoughts. Not to mention that because of the failure of the counter-sneak attack, He Lianqian was so angry that he had to give up half of the gains from this battle to appease the others.
The tribe added insult to injury and made the Tuoba tribe
The situation can be said to be even worse. So in order to prevent the tribe from being taken advantage of, after all, the tribes of Yan Zongyou, Tanluoluo, Putou and others in the western Xianbei are all first-class large tribes, even the Tuo tribes in their heyday
It would take a lot of effort for the postscript to contend with it.
Therefore, if you can get a seat in the Japanese law deduction, you will not only gain the attachment of those small tribes, but also get a lot of benefits from the close water tower that manages the affairs of the Xianbei tribes in the west. Just think about the fact that the tribe where the daily law deduction is located was originally just a
A medium-sized tribe on the grassland gradually developed into one of the largest tribal alliances in the western Xianbei region just because Rilu deduced this person and was favored by Tan Shihuai.
"I'm not as timid as the Tuoba family. I don't need ten thousand. As long as you give me eight thousand troops, I can conquer this city."
Of course, Tuoba Jiefen can make small calculations, but other tribes can't? Besides, there is one person who hopes to get the position in the daily law deduction than Tuoba tribe. This person is Yuwen Puhui, the leader of Yuwen tribe. A situation better than Tuoba tribe
A tribe that the Bashi tribe will still suffer.
"Then I only need seven thousand people." How could Tuoba Jiefen let the duck fly away from his mouth? So it doesn't matter whether the duck is raw or cooked, or whether it can be chewed, he will get it first anyway.
Let's think of a solution here, otherwise we will just stare and drool.
"Give me five thousand people, that's enough." The two of them were on the right track. When the other tribal leaders heard this number, they immediately stopped participating, and all turned into a theater mode. After all, five thousand people were used to hit a man with a lot of people behind him.
Tens of thousands of people hold on to the Southern Wall, which requires so much courage.
"What are you going to do? Don't think that our Tuoba tribe is easy to bully." Tuoba Jiefen was really anxious.
"Are other departments that strong? You just have more people, not necessarily the strongest." Yuwen Puhui was not to be outdone and immediately counterattacked.
Seeing that the quarrel between the two people was beginning to develop into a child's quarrel, He Lian, who heard black lines on his head, stopped Tuoba Jiefen when he was about to continue to fight back.
Unlike Tuoba Jiefen and Yuwen Puhui who were completely unaware of the details of Lishi City, Helian learned about the Jieren's siege battle last year from Hele. Although Helian was somewhat dismissive of Jieren's strength,
But after all, he was still a little wary of the other party's tricks.
"Well, you don't need to fight. Lishi City is right in front of you anyway, and you won't run away on your own. Tuoba Jiefen, you just came from Mobei, and you don't know how powerful the Han people are. You should lead some people to rush there first.
Come on, if you can come down, I will celebrate your victory at the official residence in Lishi City tonight."
He Lian made the final arbitration, and the person who received this honorable but disappointing task was Tuoba Jiefen, who was unknowingly given a disappointing halo. Of course, our Tuoba Jiefen was arrogant.
He looked at his disappointed opponents with high spirits, and organized his team with high spirits, preparing to show the strength of his Tuoba tribe to all the Xianbei people.
p.s. We have finally finished the third update, and my body is very tired. Only God knows if we can update twice tomorrow.
