Hanxi Guanbian City.
The Xiongnu soldiers and horses galloped over, raising dust everywhere.
County officials in the city quickly received the news.
What are you afraid of coming, the Huns are really here.
"Have you ever found out how many troops are coming?" an official asked.
"The exact number of people is unknown, but there are at least seven or eight thousand people. Judging from the formation of soldiers and horses, their essence turns into smoke, they are all strong soldiers." The scout replied.
Bang!
The sound of the dwarf turning, some officials got up in a panic.
Many people were frightened when they thought about the cruelty and ferocity of the Huns soldiers and the methods they used to kill the Han people.
Even Zhang Jun's face turned pale.
"I have known for a long time that something would happen if the champion Hou Xingxing took risks."
The speaker was Yao Xing, who was in his fifties and in charge of the Longxi County Sheriff.
He trembled slightly, and he hated a beard from his jaw, and his sorrow:
"Tens of thousands of people in this city, if the real city is broken, will fall into the enemy."
All the officials looked pale. They were not only afraid of the Huns, but also felt sorry for the border people.
The enemy came, and the city was about to break.
Thinking that the people would be massacred, all because of Huo Qubing's improper use of troops, and the loss of one person, the border officials suffered, some officials couldn't help but feel regretful.
In their opinion, it was already a dead end.
"Nearly 10,000 Xiongnu strikes, and my dignitaries have nothing to use in Hanbian Town.
Some officials said with tears in their eyes: "After this battle, he will be infamy for the ages, and we will all be affected by that champion."
"Unfortunately, the people in this city, killing the opponent, what is the eagerness to the heart?"
"While the Huns haven't entered the city yet, I would like to ask the champion if he deserves it?" Yao Xing said angrily, his eyebrows raised.
Zhang Jun was still able to stabilize for a long time, and he scolded: "The military strategy of Huo Hou is formulated with me. If the real city is broken, I died before you.
But at this moment the city has not been broken. When the work is together, what problem can you wait for the trouble? "
"I have discussed with Huo Hou many times. He has already anticipated that the Xiongnu soldiers might come, and has his own way of dealing with it. The sky will not fall."
Most of the officials were not generals, some were frightened, and some were so frightened that they wanted to run away.
The enemy came to attack, and there was no soldier in the city.
"Is there any other way? The champion is an enemy of ten thousand people. Is there any way for him to go into battle and kill his opponents?" an official said sadly.
"After this campaign, as long as I am still alive, I will play, and I will use him to use their own soldiers to set off the side of the border?"
"he……"
Everyone was arguing, and when Huo Qubing came in from outside the temple, his face was calm, and he was not different from time to time. He followed Bai Nanzheng behind him.
Huo Qubu toured the crowd coldly, and said:
"Passion in a panic is a lot of talents."
"I wait for it to be a mediocre talent. You are savvy. The current enemy forces forced the city, all because of your mistakes. If you leave some soldiers and horses, there will be thousands of defenders.
You are so interested in great achievements, and in order to win, you completely ignore defense. We have tried to persuade you not to listen. What is the result now? "
Yao Xing was determined to die and was no longer afraid of Huo Qubing. He held his neck and said, "If the Huns attack the city, all ten thousand households in the city will fall into the enemy's hands because of your loss.
I ask you, how can you bear it?
When you become famous in the first battle, when you are in power in the army, when I talk to Li Yanqing and others, I feel that it is not good.
"Bai Nanyu, you bring this Yao Xing, Yao Lord's book. And several of them go to the city together and wait for the Huns."
Huo Qubing pointed out a few people, the ones who were the most frightened and whose faces turned pale.
Bai Nanyi promised, and with a few relatives, he pledged the named officials and turned away.
There are currently only a few hundred soldiers and horses left in the city, and most of them are reserve soldiers.
Ho Huo was sick and most of his pro -army sent out.
Including Dao Zun, Dong Zhongshu also personally accompanied the army. The reason was that the strategic goal of this expedition was particularly important and could not be missed.
Dong Zhongshu and Dao Zun's pressure followed the army.
Bai Nanyu came to the city with more than ten officials.
At the beginning of the sky, the Xiongnu soldiers outside the city approached, and the queue changes were extremely skilled. At first glance, it was a fine riding.
Several officials headed by Yao Xing, although some Confucianism, had never seen such battles, and each of them was shocked.
Huo Qubing judged that the Xiongnu general Qi Musu's troops who met halfway were the Xiongnu ambush troops dormant in the Xiutu tribe, numbering 6,000 troops.
They are in harmony with Qi's mother, and there are nine thousand people in total.
Dadanghu Jige is the leader of this team. He is nearly fifty years old. His military style is mature and prudent among the Huns.
This is why Yudu sent him to lead the troops and hide in the Xiutu Department, with other plans.
Because of its stability, it can be dormant for a long time, without exposing, waiting for the opportunity to complete the goal of explaining the capital.
Jigo's jaw is left, and the short halberds that are rare in the Huns of the Huns are good.
The Huns were circulating, saying that Jigo's talent with short halberds was granted. He had never learned it, but after capturing a pair of short halberds belonging to a Han general in his early years, he was able to use it skillfully, as if he had practiced it for many years.
There is a theory of reincarnation in the Xiongnu's Soul Life Skill, so everyone says that it is a practice brought from previous lives.
Jigo's eyes are narrow, eyelids are triangular, and their eyes are bright.
After the two sides co -soldiers, they are headed by Da Di Ge, supplemented by the mother -in -law.
"There are indeed no soldiers at Hanguan. Otherwise, if we were advancing like this, the Han border towns would have already had soldiers and horses coming out to fight us. It would be impossible to force us to the city so easily."
Qi Musu smiled and said: "This time I will kill him with all my heart, so that the Han people will know how powerful I am."
Jigo looked at the border town in the distance, his expression gradually becoming excited.
The border town of the Han people was so quiet, and there was still no sign of troops preparing for war.
It seems that it is true that the Han army came out, and the defense of the air defense was when it was taken!
"Once you are reminding the horse, once you approach, you will attack the city immediately, not delay!"
Ji Ge and Qi Musu had rich experience in the battlefield. They thought that they could see through the actual situation of the Han army, so they issued orders in advance and prepared to attack the city with all their strength.
However, in the process of approaching, a strange phenomenon was suddenly discovered.
The city gate of the Han border town slowly opened.
After opening the city gate, the soldier who opened the door returned to the city in a panic, looking horrified.
At the head of the city, a group of people stood supporting the wall, led by a woman with fluttering skirts. Looking from a distance in the night, one could still feel that she was extremely beautiful and must be a rare beauty.
The city gate opened wide, and another woman led the way to the top of the city.
Jigo's sharp eyes pierced the night sky, and he saw that the faces of the people around the woman were pale, trying to support themselves, but looking horrified and timid, and they couldn't hide it even if they wanted to.
"The Han army opened the city gate, what does this mean?" Qi Mu Su asked in shock.
He has experienced countless battles and has never seen such a weird situation.
"Are they using a trick to show the enemy that they are weak?" Qi Musu asked uncertainly.
"..."
Jigo slowed down his horse: "Showing weakness?"
But this is too weak. Even the city gate is open. Do you want to surrender?
The few people at the top of the city were obviously on the verge of being heartbroken, and there was no such obvious reason to show weakness to the enemy.
Whenever a general, a little stable, seeing this situation in front of you will not directly rush into the door of the other party.
This is obviously fraud.
Qi Musu and Ji Ge looked at each other, waved in unison, and the galloping army slowly stopped, nearly two hundred feet outside the city, reining in their horses at the edge of the arrow range.
The Xiongnu soldiers and the Han army faced each other from a distance in the border city. Jige and Qi Musu stared at the wide open city gate without blinking an eye.
At the head of the city, Yao Xing and more than ten people were trembling and asked in a trembling voice: "Why do these Xiongnu barbarians stop their horses..."
"Huo Hou seems to have opened the city gate."
They stood on the top of the city and could not see the city gate under their feet, but they heard the winch turning and felt that the city gate seemed to be opened.
The sound of teeth chattering up and down when an official spoke could be clearly heard.
"What is Huo Hou used this ... what means?"
"Open the city gate and let the other party come in. Would you like to wait!"
"Then why did the Huns stop..."
"Shut up!" Bai Nanyu screamed.
She was also full of doubts and didn't understand Huo Qubing's purpose.
In his early years, when Huo Qubing first started practicing military strategism, he knew that the thirty-six strategies in this world were not complete. Some strategies had already been invented, while others had not yet appeared.
The famous empty city strategy of later generations has never appeared now.
Therefore, everyone had no concept of an empty city plan, and they could not see through the reality of Huo Qubing's plan.
The Empty City Strategy was that during the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang had no generals around him, and half of the five thousand troops he led had gone to transport grain, leaving only half in the city.
When he heard that Sima Yi was coming with his army, Zhuge Liang planned to empty the city.
He ordered all the banners to be hidden, and ordered the soldiers to open the four city gates.
At each city gate, twenty soldiers were sent to pretend to be ordinary people, spraying water and sweeping the streets, looking very leisurely.
Zhuge Liang himself wore a crane cloak and a silk scarf, and led two little book boys to the top of the city to look at the enemy tower. He sat down on the railing, lit incense and played the piano.
When Sima Yi's troops arrived at the city, they saw Zhuge Liang sitting on the top of the city with a smile on his face. He was shocked and confused, how could he dare to enter the city easily.
He suspected that there was a deception, and the rear army acted as the front army. He decided to take a stab at it and retreat immediately.
Huo Qubing did not copy the empty city strategy because the situation was not exactly the same, but he followed the trend and achieved the same result with different approaches.
At the top of the city, Bai Nanyu didn't see Huo Qubing's plan, but she guessed that it must be a way to confuse the enemy with suspicion, to make the enemy unpredictable and not dare to enter the city easily.
She was afraid that the officials around her would reveal their flaws, so she shouted in a low voice: "Stand still, I will keep you safe according to what Marquis Huo said.
Huo Hou used to use soldiers in the past, and it was invincible. Do you think he was really unprepared? We have an ambush in secret, waiting for these Huns soldiers to enter the city and kill them. "
When the officials heard Bai Nanyu's words, they suddenly became energetic.
I also thought about what Zhang Jun had said just now, that Huo Qubing had already made a judgment on the enemy's attack.
Since we knew that our opponent was coming, there was no reason not to prepare.
What's more important is that they are at stake at the moment, and they are already desperate. Subconsciously, they were willing to believe that what Bai Nanyu said was true. It was like a life-saving straw after drowning. If you grab it, you won't want to let go.
I want to believe it in my heart, but the more I think about it, the more I feel it is true.
Huo Hou had already anticipated this, and of course he would not put himself in danger.
Thinking of this, everyone gradually regained their courage and had the idea of working hard to survive.
Some officials wanted to make up for their previous timidity. They had lived at the border for a long time and knew some Hun language. They immediately had the courage to shout to the Hun soldiers below: "The Huns are coming, are you all coming into the city?"
"Yes, come here!"
Below, Ji Ge and Qi Musu retreated.
The few people on the city wall were shaking like sieves before, but in an instant they calmed down, provoking them and inviting them to enter the city. It was so weird.
"There must be a scam in this city..." Qi Musu looked solemn.
Jigo said: "It doesn't matter what you say, but since there is a fraud, why is it so obvious that you want to lure me into the city? If you just leave like this, I will not be willing to do so."
He gave an eye -like object.
"The Great Shaman and General Judu gave me many instructions when I came to the Western Grasslands. They personally gave me the Shaman's Eyes, which I can use to observe the enemy's situation."
Qi's mother Su said happily: "This is the best. You can tell at a glance whether the enemy or we are true or false!"
Jigo cut his finger, forced out the blood, and dripped it on the dried eagle eye.
Suddenly, the eagle's eyes rose into the sky and looked down at the city below.
Seeing that deep in the city, the shadows were heavy, all of which were soldiers and horses of the Han army.
Moreover, there seemed to be many barreled utensils on the city wall. Jigo and Qi Musu knew at the first sight that they must be kerosene.
As soon as they enter, they will overturn the oil and set fire to deal with them.
This city is obviously a killing trap targeting them.
"These Han people are so cunning and vicious!"
"If we can't clearly see what's going on in the city and we are unwilling to retreat, we may fall into the trap of the Han people."
Jigo's vertical aura said: "Wait for the Han people, your strategies have been seen by me, but dare to come out of the front battle!"
As soon as his voice came out, in a daze, there was a response from all directions. Even behind the undulating low hills in the distance, there seemed to be Han troops appearing.
On the ground, more lines of military formations suddenly appeared, approaching quickly!
Ji Ge and Qi Musu said in unison: "No, the Han army has an ambush not only inside the city, but also outside the city. Let's retreat!"
The soldiers and horses gathered and dispersed, then galloped away in an instant. The speed was extremely fast, obviously because they were afraid of the Han army encircling them.
Everyone in the city was stunned and fell into a strange silence.
"I'm stupid... Huo Houzhentian general, the empty city scared away the Xiongnu army."
"What kind of magical power is this?"
As for the seemingly over 10,000 ambushes in the city, where did they come from? Of course, it was Huo Qubing's secret strategy. He used three tactics to conceal the truth, create something out of nothing, and fish in troubled waters. He also used a series of superimposed tactics to make everything possible.
At this moment, the empty city strategy to scare people away is only the first step, the next step is the key.
