The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 668 Hard Steel
From the point of view of capturing the thief and capturing the king, Xu Shu's idea is correct. If he were, he would also choose to attack the place where the leader is.

Moreover, Xu Shu is a senior official in the Han Dynasty, and the envoy of the Guishuang Empire came to the Han Dynasty to do nothing. After he returned, whoever was in the Han Dynasty court and who had any influence in the Han Dynasty court was sent to the King of the Guishuang Empire Wave hands.

In the same way, the important figures of the Guishuang Empire were also made aware of the high-level officials of the Han Dynasty, and the name of Xu Shu was also introduced into the Guishuang Empire.

Knowing that Xu Shu is in the Western Regions, and just after Weitou, the general of the Guishuang Empire who led the troops into the Western Regions suddenly came to compete with Xu Shu.

"General, the Han people have gathered 3000 people again, and it seems that they don't want to withdraw from the Western Regions." Ju Qing, the king of the Xiuyu Kingdom, is now as servile as a slave, carefully currying favor with the leading general of the Guishuang Empire.

Ju Qing didn't want to do this either, but the Xiuyu Kingdom had always been under the control of the Guishuang Empire, and the power in his hands couldn't be compared with a behemoth like the Guishuang Empire.He didn't dare to go against the meaning of the Guishuang Empire, otherwise the Guishuang Empire could easily destroy his country.

It's not that he didn't think about surrendering to the Han, but after the Han army entered the Western Regions, not only did they abolish the royal families and nobles of various countries, but even exterminated the clans who resisted.

This is no longer a matter of surrender or not, it is a matter of survival. Now Ju Qing can only rely on the Guishuang Empire to save his life. Otherwise, once the Han army invades the city, neither he nor his princes and ministers can survive.

"Very good." The leader of the Guishuang Empire is the general Ge Leyu, a confidant who was hand-picked by Bodiao.

Soon, Ge Lezhen learned about the situation of the nearby city-state, or the situation of several nearby counties from Ju Qing, because the place occupied by the big man no longer has the theory of city-state, and all of them have been changed to counties.

"Weitou County..."

"Shache County..."

Ge Lezhen patrolled these two places back and forth on the map. The map no longer had Weitou Kingdom and Shache Kingdom, but changed to counties. Ge Lezhen was not those noble generals, but fierce generals who led troops in battle all the year round.

"The Han people want to hold us back with 3000 people, but I can make him succeed. We have [-] soldiers and horses, and there is no need to concentrate all the way..."

Ge Lezhen ordered: "Let Ma Tuo take 1 people to attack Shache County, and let him kill all the Han people in Shache County."

Then Ge Lexuan led 2 people to Weitou County. He divided his troops into two groups and planned to kill some Han people to gain power. Of course, it is impossible for the entire Western Regions. The king of Bodiao who sent troops warned him repeatedly that it is enough to drive the Han people out. , don't occupy the Western Regions.

Once the Guishuang Empire occupies the Western Regions, the Great Han will join the Guishuang Empire to start a full-scale war. At that time, the Guishuang Empire will be threatened by a two-front war. You must know that the Sasanian Dynasty is eyeing the Guishuang Empire.

Ge Lezhen's task is to let the Western Regions continue to be independent. It will not be controlled by the big man, and the Guishuang Empire will not send troops into it. Having such a buffer zone is good for both countries.

The way Ge Lezhen completes the task is very simple. If the Han people don't quit, he will kill them until the Han people are scared.

When Ge Lexuan led an army of [-] to approach Weitou, Xu Shu also received an urgent report that in addition to the [-] soldiers who came to attack Weitou, there were also [-] Guishuang soldiers who went to Shache County.

"not good."

Xu Shu's face changed slightly. Although Shache County is a county, it has no regular army. There are only more than 2000 city guards in the entire Shache County, and they are scattered in five cities throughout the county.

The reason why Xu Shu was worried about Shache County was because the sheriff of Shache County was Ma Zhong, a very capable, but also very passionate and tough guy, a talent capable of writing and martial arts.

But it is because of such talents that they may not follow Xu Shu's order to quit Shache County, but choose to fight hard with the soldiers and horses of the Guishuang Empire. One county, unfortunately, because of Wusun's incident, the Xiuliu country could not be defeated on time, and the Xiuliu county could not be established.

Ma Zhong was temporarily appointed as the Sheriff of Shache County, but he did not expect to encounter such a thing. Xu Shu once again sent orders to Ma Zhong not to confront the enemy head-on.

It's a pity that it was still too late. When Ma Zhong learned that the Guishuang Empire sent troops into the Western Regions, he immediately summoned the city guards of the entire Shache County, thinking the same as Xu Shu.

Before Xu Shu's second order was sent to Ma Zhong, Ma Tuo, the general of the Guishuang Empire, had already surrounded the city of Shache County.

In addition to the [-] city guards in the city, there are also [-] strong men organized by Ma Zhong. However, they lack weapons and have not been trained.

"Defend!"

Wearing a battle armor and holding a machete, Ma Zhong stood on the tower, staring at the densely packed Guishuang soldiers and horses outside the city.

To Ma Zhong's relief, he found that there were no siege weapons in the Guishuang army.

"Woo woo woo..."

The horn of attack sounded, and the Guishuang infantry began to advance. They had an absolute superiority in numbers. The shield soldiers in the front line followed the archers, followed by the siege infantry carrying simple boarding ladders. The sound approached the city of Shache County step by step.

"Hold on!"

Seeing that the defenders around him were a little flustered, Ma Zhong frowned and roared to calm down the troops.

The city guards were right that they had never been on the battlefield, but fortunately, almost all the basic officers were veterans who had come down from the battlefield. While appeasing these subordinates, they explained the precautions.

"Archer!"

Ma Zhong roared, and the archers who had already prepared stepped forward, drew the longbow in their hands, and prepared to throw.Although they have never been on the battlefield, they are all formally trained soldiers. Although they are not comparable to the regular army, they are not comparable to ordinary people.

"shoot!"

Following Ma Zhong's order, the tragic offensive and defensive battle began.

"woo woo woo woo......"

The Guishuang siege soldiers began to accelerate and rushed towards the Shache tower not far away. The shield soldiers in the front row raised their shields to block the incoming arrows.

"Keep shooting!"

"Shoot with me, directly aim at the enemy under the tower, don't be afraid, the bow and arrow aimed at people may not hit you."

While shooting arrows, the veterans taught their subordinates to fight and cheered them up. These veterans also came from recruits.

"Rolling Stones!"

Ma Zhong commanded the city guards in an orderly manner to resist the Guishuang soldiers attacking the city, and he didn't care that his feathered arrows might hit him at any time. As those veterans said, the enemy's feathered arrows are not accurate enough, and whether they are shot depends on fate , obviously, Ma Zhong's life is very good.
