"General Barge Horse, if that's the case, then we'll take our leave. Please prepare the remaining horses as soon as possible. These 10,000 horses are only one third. It's really getting late today, so we'll take our leave." !”
In the Huns' camp, the barge horses thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to squeeze out 10,000 horses to serve Zou Yang.
Although he was itching with hatred, who could let Bakar, a loser, really fail to live up to his expectations?
I originally asked him to go over and delay for a while, but who knew that this bastard actually brought the person back directly.
Moreover, this guy Zou Yang has an unusually tough attitude. It’s because of the poor traffic. Now he doesn’t know where the Shanyu has gone. Until now, there is still no movement from the Han people. For a moment, he really doesn’t know what to do. After thinking about it, he decided to compromise.
"This is how it should be. You don't have to be polite, General Zou. It's too late today. Since the general insists on going back, we won't try to persuade you to stay. General, please feel free to do so!"
Although he was very unwilling to accept that 10,000 war horses were taken away by them, for the sake of the Great Chanyu's plan, Barge Ma could only hold back this tone.
"Very well, in that case I'll take my leave!"
Now that all the horses have been inspected, Zou Yang stopped talking nonsense, picked up a roast leg of lamb on the table, cupped his hand towards the barge horses, and walked out in a vicious manner.
Seeing Zou Yang's mouth full of oil after eating, Bakar's heart was full of resentment. What the hell did he eat when he went to the Han army?
Why did this bastard come and not only had he had enough to eat and drink, but before he left, he even took a roasted leg of lamb with him!
After coming out of the Huns' camp, five thousand Han troops held torches, guarded all their war horses in the middle of the queue, and then drove them towards the camp.
On the way back, the soldiers around Zou Yang looked at Zou Yang with admiration.
"General, how do you know they will definitely give us war horses? You treated the envoy like this today, and they actually entertained you with roasted whole sheep. Aren't these Huns mentally ill?"
"You know nothing, these Huns have no good intentions, they are guilty of thieves now!"
Although he said it lightly, Zou Yang knew in his heart that the king must be notified of this matter as soon as possible to know that these Huns are really up to something.
"Report!"
"Reporting to the general, the Xiongnu Chanyu led an army of 50,000 people. They have now entered the territory of Fushi and are setting up camp at Daliuzhuang. It looks like they will attack the city early tomorrow morning!"
Seeing that it was almost midnight, Yuan Qing finally sent someone to deliver the news...
"How far are we from Fuchs?"
They could be lost anywhere in Shangjun, but Fushi could not be lost. Guan Fu knew very well that once the Huns captured Fushi, the ordnance in the entire city would be enough for them to fight a protracted war...
"If we get back to the general, it will take at least a day at our rate!"
Long Xiao hurriedly came over, checked the map, and said to Guan Fu.
"Brothers are all tired, let everyone rest first! We will rest here overnight and set off early tomorrow morning!"
Although Modao's army is all infantry, and the war horses are only used for transportation, the physical strength of the war horses along the way has been squeezed to the limit.
All the soldiers were exhausted. They had marched four hundred miles in one night. This marching speed was already shocking.
It was already dark now. There were many mountainous areas in Shangjun and the roads were mostly rugged and winding. Marching late at night was really too dangerous. No matter how anxious I was, I could only stop and rest.
Guan Fu and the others were resting, but Shen Yuncong didn't dare to rest. The entire Fushi City was in chaos.
The common people spontaneously organized strong men to assist the officers and soldiers in defending the city. After all, if the city was destroyed, it would be the common people who would suffer.
Fortunately, the most indispensable thing in this city is ordnance. The news of the arrival of the Huns caused all the people around Fushi City to rush into the city crazily, and many strong men spontaneously signed up to join the army.
Throughout the night, Shen Yuncong and the officials in the prefecture worked all night long, preparing supplies, allocating manpower and formulating plans, and the entire Fushi City moved quickly.
When it got dark, Shen Yuncong finally stretched out and worked hard all night. The city defense was finally put up. He just didn't know what the city defense was prepared to do under their first aid chapter. Can you keep it...
In fact, compared with city defense, what worries Shen Yuncong most is the morale problem in the city.
Fushi City has never withstood such a test, and the officers and soldiers in the city have never had a real face-to-face confrontation with the Huns.
Coupled with the fact that the Huns are now approaching the border, the psychological pressure on the soldiers can be imagined. Although he understands the importance of morale, he has no way to do it at this time.
At this time, not only the people were confused, but even Shen Yuncong himself was full of fear. There are only 3,000 people, and even if we include the strong men who have temporarily evaporated from the common people, it is only just over 10,000.
The Huns had 50,000 elite soldiers. The balance of strength between the two sides was too mysterious. This alone was enough to make everyone feel heavy.
Although the story of His Highness Dai Wang's defeat of the Xiongnu has spread throughout the Han Dynasty, whether this incident is true or not, in this society with limited information, everyone listens to it as a myth.
Having just finished patrolling the city, Shen Yuncong was filled with worry when he looked at the fearful looks in the eyes of the soldiers.
The sky finally dawned, and the tense atmosphere throughout Fushi City made Shen Yuncong almost breathless...
But Shen Yuncong understood from himself that he had to cheer up. Everyone in the city was looking at him. If even he collapsed, Fushi City would be really hopeless.
"Sir, Tan Ma just came to report that the Huns are already thirty miles away. I'm afraid they will start attacking the city in another hour!"
"Tell me to go down and assemble the army to prepare for war, and tell the brothers that as long as we hold on for three days, the imperial court will have a large army to come to our aid. The governor of Beidi County, Zhou Yafu, is the son of Zhou Bo, the governor of Beidi County. He is from a famous family. If there is trouble in the county, he will definitely lead an army to come to our aid." !”
Shen Yuncong took a deep breath, and then said seriously to Wen Ge in front of him.
"promise!"
Wen Ge responded and turned away. Shen Yuncong sat blankly on his chair. Will Zhou Yafu really come?
During the night, the more things were discovered, the more uneasy Shen Yuncong felt. The Huns dared to go straight from Yulin to Fushi like this. If they had no backup plan, wouldn't they be seeking death?
