Fufeng Song

Chapter 97 Hu Jia

() The Xiongnu army that raided Jinyang had a total of more than 1000 people.Liu He, the prince of the Xiongnu Han Dynasty and Zuo Xian Wang, personally commanded, including the troops of the five powerful chieftains of the Xiongnu, including the left and right Yulu kings and the left and right Jianshang kings, who Liu Yuan called the great danyu and later sealed.They were originally stationed at the Mengjin Ferry of the Yellow River in Hanoi. They were the main force of the Xiongnu's confrontation with the Luoyang Forbidden Army of the imperial court. There were as many as 43 Xiongnu warriors with more than [-] households in the army.

It took only one day and one night for this army to sweep across the entire Shangdang County, and successively captured Zhiguanxing, Taihangxing, Baixing, Fukouxing and other important throats.Liu Kun deployed more than [-] defenders here, and most of them were killed except for more than [-] people under the henchmen of the rebel general Long Jimeng who were taken into the Xiongnu army.

In addition, more than a dozen Wubao and Shanzhai that hindered the Xiongnu's march were breached, and all residents, young and old, men and women, were also killed.

In order to ensure the suddenness of the action, the Huns did not rest at all after capturing Shangdang.In the early morning of the next day, they continued to fly northward, beheading all kinds of people they encountered along the way.And the cities such as Xiangyuan and Wuxiang on their marching route were massacred without exception.

After advancing all the way to the vicinity of Yangyi, the Huns' vanguard encountered a small group of sentinel cavalry from the Jin army.This group of Jin army cavalry was unexpectedly slippery, and nearly half of them escaped under the siege of the Xiongnu cavalry.Naturally, the Huns didn't know that what they encountered was Yue Shigong's personal guards led by Wang Xiu. Seeing that they were only a hundred miles away from Jinyang, they simply stopped hiding their whereabouts and rushed towards Jinyang with great fanfare.

Zuo Xianwang Liu He, wearing a helmet and crown armor, rode a tall horse and walked at the forefront of the whole army.Hundreds of elite cavalry surrounded by a high-toothed banner followed closely behind him, showing their mighty majesty.

Liu He freely controlled the rein with one hand, and held the whip in his right hand, beating his thigh one after another.From time to time, he looked at the mountains and rivers in the distance, almost unable to suppress his excitement.

Liu Kun is indeed a rare and brave general among the Jin people, but it is a pity that he lacks the knowledge of people.Long Jimeng, whom he promoted to guard the Shangdang, turned out to be an internal agent who had secretly communicated with the Xiongnu for several years... Maybe it was really the blessing of the gods, which made the Jin people themselves go to a dead end.

Da Shanyu's eyes lit up, and everything had already been settled. At this time, Liu Kun's troops had been completely attracted to the southern part of Taiyuan Kingdom, and there would not be any force in Jinyang City that could resist the Huns' army.Relying on the heroic soldiers under his command to destroy Jinyang, it is really like Mount Tai pressing an egg.As long as Jinyang is conquered, the thousands of miles of fertile land in Bingzhou will truly become the territory of the Huns.

Based on the foundation of Bingzhou, advance can sweep the world and covet artifacts; retreat can also be the overlord of northern Xinjiang, without losing the career of Maodun Shanyu!

Thinking of this, Liu He looked at Jinyang, the eternal city, with some excitement.

"This is Jinyang!"

Regardless of the possible threat of a crossbow, he approached until he was about [-] steps away from the city wall.From this distance, it can be seen that the soldiers defending the city wall are quite sparse, and the flags on the top of the city are also scattered, showing the panic of the defenders.

The Jin people at the top of the city noticed themselves and the big banner behind them, they were running around, shouting something.Then some people dressed as generals gathered in this direction and pointed.Liu He reined in the horse and looked up at them with a disdainful sneer on the corner of his mouth.

He knew that this posture was very heroic in the eyes of onlookers, so he kept it for a while longer.

Liu He, whose name is Xuantai, is the eldest son of the great Shanyu Liu Yuan.He is tall, handsome, and handsome, just like his father.When he was a teenager, he lived in Luoyang with his father Liu Yuan. He studied "Poetry", "Yi", "Spring and Autumn" and other classics with famous teachers.

He used to pride himself on his literature, but since Liu Yuan rebelled against the Jin Dynasty, he has used troops year after year, and he has only used his martial arts to be good at fighting.Liu Yuan's fourth son, Liu Cong, Liu He's half-brother, won successive victories in battles with the Jin army and gained fame; his strength was no longer inferior to that of his heir Liu He.This makes him often secretly vigilant.

Fortunately, Da Shanyu's trust in Liu He remains the same as before.Not only did he transfer more than [-] elite members of the Huns to his command, but this time he was also given such a task of leading great achievements, and his heir's intention to cultivate wings and prestige was clearly revealed.

As soon as the troops were dispatched this time, the situation along the way was overwhelming.Liu He seems to have seen the luscious fruits that can be plucked from the branches with a raised hand.This is another brilliant victory since the defeat of Sima Teng last year. Such a big victory can greatly establish one's prestige, and if he can win over the generals in the battle, it will be extremely beneficial to his successor in the future.

"This is Jinyang!" He couldn't help but sigh again.

"During the reign of Zuo Chuanzhaogong, Jin State official Zhongxing Muzi led an army to attack Baidi, and encountered Wushang and Qundi's troops in Dayuan. Zhonghang Muzi followed Wei Xianzi's suggestion, destroyed the car dealership, and defeated the enemy on foot. In the end, he was defeated. The enemy seized the land of Taiyuan. A few years later, Dong An, a retainer of Zhao Jianzi, was ordered to build a city on the north bank of Jinshui, which is now Jinyang."

Liu Hechang sighed: "Zhao Xiangzi established the hegemony of one of the seven heroes of the Warring States period with the Jinyang base, and Li Mu destroyed the rags, broke the Donghu, surrendered the Linhu, and defeated our army of the Huns. Now, the Han family has lost Yu and Zhongxia lost their dominance, and the great Shan Yu Shao’s career was sent to the south of Shanxi. Tens of thousands of Xiongnu elite soldiers went straight to the city of Jinyang, and the foundation of the Han Kingdom was determined to fight here. This moment of great significance is all my own Command, isn’t it an opportunity bestowed by God?”

There was silence all around.

Liu Heya is good at literature and is quite charming, but the people who accompany him are all illiterate Huns and tigers.It's okay for them to go to the city and fall into battle, but when it comes to the harmony of words... I'm afraid no one can understand Liu He's polite words, right?

Liu He couldn't help feeling a little frustrated.He shook his head, and asked the general accompanying him, Subbaba who was the Marquis of Zuogu: "Have all our people sneaked into the city?"

Xu Buba was Liu He's trusted general.Different from the thick body of ordinary Huns, his body is thin, and it seems that a gust of wind can blow him down.But the two scimitars he hung around his waist were several times wider than the usual ones, which obviously added extra weight, proving that he must be a strong fighter with extraordinary physical strength.

Hearing Liu He's inquiry, Subaba said respectfully: "I have arranged for police messengers who are fluent in Chinese, and General Long has also dispatched capable men to cooperate. They have sneaked into Jinyang from different gates, and they will meet tonight. Contact the Tian, ​​Chi, Wang, and Gao families in the city who have been in contact with us for a long time, and ask them to cooperate with our army to attack the city tomorrow."

The general of the Xiongnu who rode slowly on Liu He's right hand said with a sneer, "Han people are all scumbags that fall with the wind, and they are used to betraying their own people." This man is about forty years old, with curly hair on his temples and light brown eyes Se, with a strong and burly body, is He Laigu, king of Zuo Jianshang of the Huns.This person is one of the chieftains of the Xiongnu with a strong military force, and his status is no less than that of the kings of various clans and clans.

He Laigu said in a loud voice: "King Zuo Xian, we Huns fought wars by relying on our soldiers' strength, horses, and bravery. We never needed the internal support of those Han people. The number of our army is ten times that of the Jin people, and the level of elite is also ten times that of the Jin people. , and captured the city along the way, the spirit is in full swing. It happened to break the city in one fell swoop today, why delay? Now that the order is issued to attack the city, I, He Laigu, am willing to be the first to charge. Before dark, you can see the heads rolling in the city !"

Liu He felt that this idea was unreliable.Jinyang is indeed weak in military strength, but after all, it has been an important border town since the Han and Wei dynasties, and the city is high and deep; even though there are many Huns, can the city walls be smashed down with cavalry?This is siege, not hunting!

More importantly, this battle should not only be considered military.What Liu He wants is an overwhelming, beautiful, and preferably bloodless victory. Only in this way can he show his both civil and military skills, and demonstrate the great effect of his literary talent and political strategy on the Huns and Han, which is absolutely different from his brothers.Those vulgar people who can only bury their heads in fighting are just Piffers, how can they entrust them with great things?I am the heir apparent of the Xiongnu Han Kingdom, and I will rely on this victory to completely consolidate my unshakable position!

I thought so in my heart, but I couldn't say it casually.Liu He responded politely: "King He Lai is really brave...With the help of King He Lai, it is not difficult to capture Jinyang. However, even the most ferocious wolves need a timely rest. Now that the overall situation is settled, it is not difficult This day is urgent. The soldiers have been marching and fighting for seven days, and they are very tired. How about letting the soldiers have a good night's rest tonight, and sending people to rush to make ladders and other equipment. Tomorrow, under the combination of inside and outside, within a day Can conquer Jinyang! King He Lai, do you think this is good?"

There is nothing impossible for He Laigu.

So Liu He continued to issue orders, and he sent two troops across Fenshui to capture Longshan on the west side of Jinyang and Mengshan on the south side respectively.Others led the main force of the Huns to set up company camps in the east and north of the city.Jinyang was besieged by more than [-] soldiers. The army was mighty, and the sound of drums and horns was deafening one after another.
