Bei'an, this city built in the past ten years, originally had the strongest city wall in the Han Dynasty today. The entire city was built with blue bricks. However, at this time, the city wall was already full of dense holes.
Siege engines and trebuchets were invented by the Han people, but obviously by this era they are no longer the exclusive property of the Han people.
The foreign races on the grasslands often capture Han people as slaves, not because they really need Han people to do coolies for them, but more because they want to find one or two skilled Han people among the captured Han people.
And after hundreds of years, the results are obviously excellent.
This kind of achievement, even though no foreign race dared to provoke him because the big man was so powerful, there were still foreign races who took risks and secretly did it.
Unfortunately, although the Han Dynasties in this era were strong, they were not the same as the Chinese in later generations. It was impossible for one or two or even dozens of people to risk their lives on the grassland. Well, the exception would be if there were aristocratic families or nobles among those dozens of people.
I have said too much, but in short, the Goguryeo-Tiele coalition forces that swept in like a wave had many siege equipment from the Han regular army.
In a few days, Bei'an was already covered with scars from those siege equipment.
"Nie Xiaoqian, retreat, let your people and mine join forces and fight out..."
On top of the city wall, Xu Feng looked at Nie Xiaoqian with his face covered in blood and spoke in a low voice.
Just from Xu Feng's appearance at this time, we can see how terrifying Tiele and Goguryeo's attacks have been in the past few days, otherwise Xu Feng would certainly not be in such an embarrassing situation.
This terrifying offensive obviously frightened Xu Feng.
Since the Northern Expedition of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, no matter how aristocratic families and those scholars say that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty went militarily, or that the fall of the Western Han Dynasty was a hidden danger planted by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty started the Northern Expedition before Chen Tang dared to invade the Han Dynasty.
Those who are mighty from heaven will be killed no matter how far away they are, and only then did thirty-six horsemen dare to wreak havoc in the Western Regions, and only then did Ban Chao pull and pull the soldiers of the Kingdom in the Western Regions, which were not much bigger than a village, and swept away the 70,000 Kushan army.
In the nearly three hundred years since Hanwu, the Han Dynasty has, to put it bluntly, achieved more brilliant victories than those of later generations in thousands of years. In later generations, Wang Xuance, who destroyed the country by one man, was definitely far inferior to Ban Chao, who had three thousand cavalry.
Li Jing, who swept through the Turks, was not necessarily better than Wei Qing and Huo Qubing.
There is too much to say. In short, the various glorious victories over the past three hundred years since the Han Dynasty, the various victories that defeated foreign races and even a powerful empire like Guishang, made everyone in this big Han Dynasty, from common people to aristocratic families, full of hope.
A sense of superiority.
How could the head of a family like Xu Feng even pay attention to foreigners?
This is also the reason why aristocratic families dare to use foreign races as their military merits. However, it is also for this reason that the heads of aristocratic families like Xu Feng have never seen a real battlefield in this life.
In fact, normally speaking, heads of aristocratic families like Xu Feng would not have the chance to see the battlefield.
The former Wuhuan and Xianbei Military Academy Mansion, which is at most half a month away from Bei'an City, now has more than 100,000 troops in the Anbei Military Academy Mansion, which can easily sweep away all the grassland aliens from Yizhou to the north.
However, on this trip, the Anbei Military Academy's captain's office had already been strictly warned not to go on an expedition, and not even a single soldier was allowed to go to Bei'an City.
Xu Feng also knew about this.
Therefore, Xu Feng understands their current situation better than Nie Xiaoqian. They have no reinforcements at all, and with the intensity of Tiele and Goguryeo's offensive, Bei'an City will definitely not be able to hold out for long.
No matter how powerful the caravan of his Xu family and Nie Xiaoqian is, they can only survive on the fortified city for ten days and a half at most. However, by that time, even if they want to escape, there is probably no possibility of escape.
"We can't escape. Those alien races are all one person with two horses, or even three horses. There is no possibility for us to escape... If we want to live, we must hold on, and then wait for reinforcements, or until Ling Tian sweeps away their tribe.
land, forcing them to retreat..."
Nie Xiaoqian glanced at Xu Feng coldly.
The Xu family was also involved in this incident, but Nie Xiaoqian also knew that Xu Feng was only a small role in it. After all, the Xu family had declined. Although it had risen again because of its cooperation with her in the past ten years, compared to the established
Yes, there is still a gap for those aristocratic families that have not declined.
At this time, if the heads of those old aristocratic families were here, even if they were not the Yuan family, the Wang family, the Kong family, etc., but just the Chen family, the Wei family, etc., they would not be afraid of the outside world.
There is a little bit of discoloration among aliens.
In Nie Xiaoqian's time, the aristocratic family had long since ceased to exist, and Nie Xiaoqian's impression of the aristocratic family only came into being in this world.
The Xu family is naturally a waste, but Nie Xiaoqian has also seen real aristocratic families. Different from the stigma in later generations, the aristocratic families of this era also have their own extraordinary features. At least, these three words, light life and death, many aristocratic families do better than the rangers.
thorough.
Of course, those things have nothing to do with the current Nie Xiaoqian. The reason why she sticks here is to cooperate with Ling Tian and to prevent the alien race from going south to have too much impact on the big man.
In the northeast of Dolphin County, more than ten days away from Bei'an City, in a huge military camp, Gongsun Zan knelt on one knee in front of a middle-aged man.
"My son-in-law is unfilial, but if I want him to watch the foreign tribes go south, he will never be able to do it..."
The token belonging to the captain was held by Gongsun Zan in both hands and faced the middle-aged man.
Gongsun Zan also came from a prominent family, but he was only the son of a concubine. He was able to become a captain at his current age only because of his father-in-law.
Of course, Gongsun Zan's cavalry commanding ability is also extremely powerful.
At this time, Gongsun Zan was not the warlord he would become later. Hundreds of thousands of foreigners were moving south. If Gongsun Zan was allowed to stand still, it would definitely be a torture for the current Gongsun Zan.
Moreover, someone sent a letter to Gongsun Zan a few days ago, which clearly stated that only by taking action can he get the greatest credit for this foreign expedition south.
If this letter had been written by someone else, Gongsun Zan would never believe it. Although he would still go to war out of passion, he would never be too decisive. However, this letter came from Nie Xiaoqian.
This woman has spent more than ten years establishing her identity as an unparalleled wise person. Even though Nie Xiaoqian has only been attracted to her unconscious husband for more than ten years, there are still countless heroes who love her, and Gongsun Zan is one of them.
If Nie Xiaoqian was not so infatuated with Ling Tian, Gongsun Zan would rather not be the current captain if given the slightest chance. In the future, he would be willing to stay and fly with Nie Xiaoqian if he could take advantage of his wife's family connections to further develop his relationship.
Therefore, regarding the letter sent by Nie Xiaoqian this time, Gongsun Zan chose to go on the expedition regardless of his personal feelings or the pros and cons.
"Can……"
When Gongsun Zan expected, the middle-aged man responded calmly.
"There are nearly a million foreigners going south. In the Central Plains, there are also millions of believers on Taiping Road... This farce is huge... You take your cavalry and 30,000 elite cavalry to go out together. This time
In the war, whatever results you can achieve, I will get as much credit for you. I don’t care about others, but I guarantee that no one can take away your credit..."
Cold words spat out from the middle-aged man's mouth.
They are also from a top aristocratic family. This middle-aged man obviously knows about this game. Moreover, this is a real aristocratic family. He can also see some kind of reaction between the aliens going south and Zhangjiao Taiping Road.
Under this situation, the middle-aged man changed his method of playing. In fact, he was almost certain that many aristocratic families should also change their method of playing.
They wanted to play, but they never wanted to help the aliens and Zhang Jiao.
Now, they just let Gongsun Zan send troops. They also knew that Nie Xiaoqian's husband who had just woken up had already led troops to the outside of the fortress. They believed that with Nie Xiaoqian's power, Ling Tian could definitely steal Tiele and Goguryeo's retreat. Then,
This farce is obviously not far away from ending.
Although the game this time is a bit anticlimactic, it doesn't matter, the Taiping Road is still there.
That is also a big show, and this big show is the one that can really give them a great opportunity to benefit. Fighting aliens can, at most, bring some fame to the younger generation of the family.
To quell the domestic rebellion is a reshuffle.
Now is the time when the cards have to be reshuffled. Water sources have dried up and food harvests have failed. There will inevitably be turmoil next. If we want to minimize the impact of turmoil, then we need to have fewer people consuming food now.
It can protect the great man from destruction, protect the family from turmoil, and by the way, it can also cleanse some people and forces that are not pleasing to the eye, so why not...
"father……"
Gongsun Zan raised his head. He was able to become the governor's son-in-law because of his appearance, but also because of his intelligence. His mind was not stupid, and he naturally understood the meaning of the middle-aged man's words.
In this war to quell the alien race, he also knew that Nie Xiaoqian's husband was also on the war, and he was heading directly outside the Great Wall, but now it seemed that no matter what he did, he would not get any credit.
As a love rival, he shouldn't have cared about Ling Tian, but Gongsun Zan, who was still a pure military commander at this time, still subconsciously couldn't help but want to say something.
"Don't say more. It's the best I can do to keep your military merit. This big man has too many top aristocratic families..."
Indifferent and somewhat cold words came out of the middle-aged man's mouth. He waved his hand, and Gongsun Zan helplessly clasped his fists, then stood up and retreated.
In Bingzhou, in Wuyuan County, Lu Bu's eyes were as sharp as arrows, and his body was slightly arched on horseback, like a hunting falcon.
"Brothers, follow me and behead the Khitan leader, and then go back to collect the reward..."
Uninhibited and wanton words rang out.
At this time, Lu Bu was no longer a chief registrar, but became a ranger again. He became the ranger of Wuyuan County and Jiuyuan in Bingzhou, the fearful ranger who could kill foreigners with one person and one horse.
"Beheading level, receive reward, hahahaha..."
………………
Behind, the voices of nearly two thousand unruly men sounded, and a smile appeared on Lu Bu's lips, and then spread.
"Sui, kill..."
Amidst the shouting, Lu Bu rushed out.
All the resentment he had felt during the past two years as chief clerk dissipated at this moment. For a while, Lu Bu felt that this was the life he liked. But soon, he took his mind back and Lu Bu's eyes were fixed on the one with the talent.
The elite Khitan team.
He couldn't just be a ranger. How could a ranger be worthy of his wife who came from a scholarly family?
That woman was willing to give up everything because she loved him. Why couldn't he give up everything for that woman and save her face with the halberd in his hand?
However, compared to being an official, it is much more satisfying to charge with a group of brothers who can accompany you life and death, just for the sake of loyalty.
A smile spread from the corner of his mouth, and Lu Bu poured his whole body into the 50,000-strong army. Then, like a hot knife cutting through butter, he cut straight through the 50,000-strong army, crossing the battlefield, invincible, with a halberd in hand, and brothers following him.
At this moment, Lu Bu felt that his whole life was worth it. Of course, he didn't know that this was also the last time in his life that he would fight with such a mood. In the future, he would still have times when he would kill generals and seize flags like searching for objects, but at that time
No one on the battlefield can give him the feeling he feels now, even though the cavalry he led at that time and now are called wolf cavalry.
It's so easy to cut through 50,000 people from two thousand people. It's so simple.
The Khitan leader stared dumbfounded at the team led by Lu Bu. Around him, some people exclaimed, some yelled at the top of their lungs, and some even ran away on horseback crazily.
There is no doubt that Lu Bu's invincibility frightened these people. In this era, even the various weapons and armors in cold weapons have not yet been perfected. It is also a time when the bravery of generals can be brought into full play. A fierce general on the battlefield
The effect on it is simply appalling.
In the midst of fifty thousand people, and in the bodyguard composed of thousands of Khitan's most valiant warriors, the Khitan leader was completely stunned.
"Kulke, you%￥%4you...%...&%mother..."
Roars of grief and indignation rang out. At this moment, the Khitan leader regretted why he had forgotten the terror of the Han people and listened to Kurk and violated the power of the Han people.
Unfortunately, it was too late to regret at this time. In the blink of an eye, Lu Bu had already reached the inside of his bodyguards. It was not much more difficult than tearing apart the ordinary cavalry outside. He seemed to be just galloping on horseback, and easily penetrated his bodyguards.
However, before the Khitan leader could stand there because of fear and did not even dare to run away, Lu Bu had his head chopped off. Suddenly, a flexible figure swam out from the bodyguards of the Khitan leader like a fish, and the figure flew fiercely into the air.
, the bright sword light flashed, and the head of the Khitan leader had been cut off by the long sword.
"So brave..."
Not far away, Lu Bu saw the head of the Khitan leader being cut off, and his eyes widened suddenly.
Although he fought for his hometown, the head of the Khitan leader was not his target. If he cut off this head, he would have the hope to go further. He did not dare to expect to become a captain in one step, at least he could become a captain.
, better than being the master notebook who writes and draws every day.
The long halberd pointed forward, like a rainbow shining through the sun, splitting dozens of cavalry in an instant. Lu Bu's men and horses had reached the place where the Khitan leader died. In mid-air, the man who cut off the Khitan leader's head had just caught the Khitan leader's head.
Lu Bu's halberd had already fallen hard towards him.
