Chapter 36: Destiny interrupted midway
Although he was in danger, Qin Hao did not panic at all, not because Qin Hao had seen through life and death, but because he had absolute confidence that he could save his life. As for the source of confidence, it was his first skill, the magical skill "Destiny".
During the four years of studying with Guiguzi, Qin Hao faced dangers more than once, but he always relied on his "Destiny" to save his life. Although Qin Hao did not know what form the skills would take to save his life after being activated, Qin Hao knew that his You can definitely save your life.
After four experiences, Qin Hao has fully realized the power of this skill. It is truly a magical skill. It is ridiculous that he thought it was a useless skill at first.
"It seems that this once-a-year opportunity is going to be wasted here. It's a pity."
Looking at the rain of arrows in front of him, Qin Hao felt sorry for the opportunity to use the skill. In his opinion, the opportunity to use this skill should be used as long as possible. The longer it is retained, the better. However, "Destiny" is a passive skill, and it does not matter if it is activated or not. Qin Hao has the final say.
"Ding dong. The host is in a dead situation, and his skills are destined..."
Just when "Destiny" was about to be launched, one of the twenty-four riders who followed Qin Hao to the city gate and was pushing the city gate suddenly jumped out from behind the city gate and blocked Qin Hao with his tall body. , blocking dozens of feather arrows for Qin Hao.
"Ding dong, the skill was interrupted midway and failed to activate!"
"Team leader!" When the twenty-three riders saw this, they all shouted angrily.
The military system of the Han Dynasty was calculated based on multiples of two and five. The most basic unit was a corps, that is, every five men had a corps and two corps were one Shi, every ten men had one Shi and five shi as a team, and every fifty had one troop. There are two teams to form a tun, one tun for every 100 and two tuns to make a qu, one military lord for every 200 and two qu to form one unit, and a military commander for every 400.
Usually there are two thousand men in each of five battalions, which is an independent combat unit. The leader of the army is the general or the captain. The righteous man who sacrificed his life to save Qin Hao was a leader of fifty people in the Yanmen Army.
When he was about to die, the captain not only showed no fear, but forced a smile at Qin Hao, turned around and said to his subordinates with great difficulty: "Protect... the young master."
As soon as he finished speaking, he fell down, but just when he was about to fall to the ground, he was supported by Qin Hao. Staring at his benefactor who was about to die, Qin Hao looked sad and asked: "Why save me?"
Everyone has only one life, and no one is nobler than anyone else in the face of life and death. Therefore, Qin Hao didn't understand why this soldier would block the arrow for him. He clearly didn't know him. What reason did he have to risk his life for himself?
"The young master is the only son of the lord. Jiang Hu has received great favor from the lord. If the young master dies here, Jiang Hu will have no face to see the lord again. It is worth using my humble life to exchange for the young master's life."
As he spoke, a strange flush appeared on Jiang Hu's face. Qin Hao knew that he was flashing back to the light before his death.
"What else do you wish for? Qin Hao vows to help you fulfill it." Qin Hao said unbearably.
Jiang Hu shook his head at Qin Hao, his lips moved slightly, but no sound came out. However, Qin Hao, who knew lip language, knew that what he said was "Lord, Jiang Hu is loyal to you!"
Jiang Hu died, he died to save the young master Qin Hao, he died willingly, without any regrets!
The Hun cavalry outside the city did not cross the city gate in the end. Just when they were about to reach the moat, the city gate was completely closed, just a little bit!
Although the Huns who raided the city gate were elite, they were cavalry and not air force after all. They could not fly over Yanmen Pass. Moreover, since they did not carry siege equipment, they were unable to do anything in the face of the tall city wall, so they had to return to report to Yuvluo first.
"Avenge the leader."
After closing the city gate and fixing it, the twenty-three horsemen all had red eyes and raised their swords high to kill the Huns. Qin Hao put Jiang Hu's body aside and joined the battle with a knife in both hands.
At this time, the reinforcements on the city tower had also arrived, with hundreds of fresh troops joining in. The Huns soldiers at the gate of the city were quickly killed.
After the danger at the city gate was relieved, Qin Hao asked one of Jiang Hu's soldiers: "Does Captain Jiang Hu still have any family members?"
"The team leader is from Liangzhou. Both his parents died when he was young, and he has never married. He only has one younger brother named Jiang Juan, who is currently serving in the Lord's army." the soldier cried.
"Jiang Juan? Why does this name sound familiar? Who is he from Liangzhou?" Qin Hao thought in his mind and remembered the name deeply.
"Ding dong, a total of 266 enemy soldiers were killed in this battle, and 266 war points were awarded. 113 of our own people were killed, and 113 war points were deducted. Therefore, the host currently has 140 war points."
"What? Still deducting it?" Qin Hao responded depressedly.
Qin Hao remembered that the exchange ratio between summoning points and war points was one to one hundred. In this way, Qin Hao worked hard to save the city gate, but in the end he only earned one and four-tenths of the summoning points, which made Qin Hao feel Extremely depressed.
The end of the crisis at the city gate does not mean that the crisis in Yanmen has been completely resolved. Yuvluo has been plotting Yanmen Pass for a long time, and has even used tricks such as internal infiltration, so he will never give up because of a small defeat. The next step will definitely be It's a strong attack.
Qin Hao naturally knows this, so in order to deal with the next strong attack, what he has to do now is to take control of the military.
The process of taking back military power was very smooth. Even with the death of both the guard general and the deputy general, the twelve army commanders who were loyal to Qin Wen saw the young master and the eldest lady coming in person holding the master's military flag, and they all expressed their willingness to obey Qin Hao. The command.
After taking control of the army, Qin Hao immediately ordered the entire Yanmen to be put on first-level alert, and the defense materials were quickly transported to the place. All five thousand soldiers inside the pass boarded the city wall, and the five thousand soldiers outside the pass stayed with them and provided support at any time.
Less than half an hour after Qin Hao gave the order, Yuvluo personally led the army to the city. Standing on the city tower and looking at the crowded crowd below, Qin Hao couldn't help but feel his scalp numb.
There were more people from the Huns than expected. For the first time to attack the city, Humphrey brought 30,000 troops. So the total number of troops sent by the Huns this time was probably no less than 80,000! Qin Hao secretly calculated in his heart.
Qin Hao's guess was absolutely correct. Just to be sure, Yu Fulo personally led an army of 80,000 people, and most of the Xiongnu troops were here.
"Listen, you Han dogs in the city, I, the Great Chanyu of the Huns, have personally led an army of 200,000 people here. Yanmen Pass can be broken in a day or night. If we don't surrender now, how long will it take?" The Hun envoy urged his horse to Yanmen Pass and threatened.
The Huns envoy shouted hard, but it had almost no effect. The Yanmen Army was not intimidated by the huge number of two hundred thousand.
The hatred between the Xiongnu and the Yanmen Army can be traced back to several generations ago. Not only did many Yanmen people die at the hands of the Xiongnu, many of them were relatives and friends of the Yanmen defenders. The two sides had already been locked in a fight to the death, so there was no surrender. possible.
"A mere 200,000 Hugos have the nerve to come and persuade them to surrender? With Yanmen Gate, I'm not afraid even if 400,000 come, let's wait and see when you Xiongnu gather an army of 600,000!" Qin Hao responded disdainfully while standing on the tower.
Qin Hao did not directly expose the lies of the Huns envoy, because the Huns may have the ability to summon an army of 200,000, but they will never be able to devote all of them to Yanmen Pass. This is known to everyone, and after Qin Hao said this, all the defenders Everyone knew that the Huns were bluffing their brothers, and they all secretly cursed the Hugou in their hearts for being cunning.
When the Huns envoy heard this, the veins on his forehead suddenly popped up. If the Huns have an army of 600,000, why are they talking nonsense like this?
"Brothers, don't you always complain that there are too few wild dogs to kill? Now there are 200,000 on the other side, which is enough, but you have to be more relaxed. Each person is only allowed to kill 20. If you kill too many, you will be fine. Not enough points.”
Qin Hao's humorous words directly caused all the Yanmen defenders to laugh. They all couldn't help but secretly thought that the young master was too bad. This was the rhythm of directly treating the Huns as beasts, although in their eyes, those people were originally brute.
"You..." Hearing the other guard directly use his head to describe the Xiongnu, the Xiongnu envoy was immediately angry and speechless.
Seeing that the envoy could not help Qin Hao, Yu Fuluo personally urged his horse forward and said arrogantly: "Are you Qin Hao, the son of Qin Wen? The Han army has no one left, and you actually let a kid with a yellow mouth guard the city, hahaha!"
Yufuluo only had one eye, and his other eye was shot blind by Qin Wen himself when he was evacuating after the first failed attack on Yanmen Pass, leaving him with a lifelong disability. It was for this reason that Yanmen Pass was regarded as a shame by Yufuluo, and he vowed to take it. He went down to Yanmen Pass and killed Qin Wen to avenge that arrow.
"Look down on me? Sometimes you cry. Little Lolita, test Yufro's five-dimensional attributes." Qin Hao looked at Yufroo coldly, but secretly asked the little Lolita.
"The five-dimensional attributes of Yufuluo, the Xiongnu Chanyu, are: 88 commander, 89 force, 74 intelligence, 62 politics, 78 charm, and no skills."
Seeing that Yu Fuluo's highest attribute was only 89 points of force, Qin Hao was determined and responded with a sneer: "The big man has fifty million people, and one person can drown you Xiongnu with just one breath of foam. How many people do you have that you Xiongnu can defeat?" Yanmen Pass?"
The Xiongnu population was originally small. In recent years, due to Yu Fuluo's insistence, nearly 80,000 Xiongnu athletes died at Yanmen Pass. If Yanmen Pass could not be captured again, even Yu Fuluo's position would be shaken, so Qin Hao's words are simply Sprinkle salt on Huvrault.
"Presumptuous, even your father Qin Wen wouldn't dare to say that to me..."
Before Yu Fulo finished speaking, he was interrupted by Qin Hao, "That's because my father doesn't bother to talk to a barbarian like you."
"you……"
Qin Hao smacked a barbarian on the left and a barbarian on the right, which made Yufuluo so angry that his veins popped out. He tore his face to pieces and roared: "Siege the city for me, break through Yanmen Pass, and leave no chickens or dogs behind."
Yanmen Pass was built against the mountains, with long and narrow sides that could not reach the 30,000 people, so Yuvluo had to divide the 30,000 troops he brought with him into ten teams, each with 3,000 people, to take turns to attack the city.
