Tap tap tap.
Mi Lang was wearing golden armor and walking very fast. He wanted to run to the central army's tent immediately, pull out the damn Shu envoy and chop him down.
When he opened the curtain and saw Zhao Dun who was still talking, Mi Lang sneered.
"Three princes, you know something is going wrong! The Shu coalition forces in Dawan City have already attacked!"
"What!"
In the military tent, the three princes stood up in shock.
"I've told you before." Mi Lang said in an angry voice, "These Shu thieves have always been cunning people. What Shu envoys are, they are nothing more than a delaying tactic! We have all been fooled!"
"Someone, drag this Shu thief out and chop him down immediately."
Zhao Dun sat upright, his expression unchanged. When he entered the enemy camp, he had already done everything he was about to do.
"The war is imminent and there is no time to delay. It is better to leave the city first, wait for the victory and return, and then kill the Shu thief to worship heaven and celebrate. Moreover, when the Xu thief comes, this person can also be used as a hostage." Prince Yu Xu condensed his voice. Open your mouth.
"Come here, put this thief into the dungeon first!"
The remaining two princes hesitated but did not refute.
Although Mi Lang was unwilling, he finally snorted coldly and walked out of the tent. He discovered that the prince of the Cone Dog Kingdom had been very fond of opposing him these past two days.
When the big thing is done, be the first to kill the prince of the Dog Kingdom.
"Going to war--" Mi Lang was in high spirits as he walked out of the camp. In terms of time, even if Xu Thief comes to help, it will be too late. The city of Dawan was riddled with holes and more than 20,000 men and horses, how could they stop an army of nearly 100,000 people.
After destroying this coalition, there will be no one left for Xu Thief to use in the Western Region!
At dawn, the vast army of Hu cavalry began to roar and rush outside the camp under the dull horns of horns. Following closely behind were soldiers with scimitars and shields, many of whom were carrying bows and arrow pots on their backs and walking very fast.
Standing under a tent, Upa smiled from ear to ear. He calculated the time many times and found out that under such circumstances, it was impossible for Thief Xu to make it over.
By the time we get here, even if Dayuan City has not yet fallen, it will eventually become riddled with holes and cannot be defended. When the time comes, they will not be able to fight based on the city, and with the strength of the Shu coalition, they will simply die.
"Kill, kill!" Upa's voice was crazy. But suddenly, he thought of something again, and hurriedly shrank down and hid again.
…
"Damn it." After a wave of killings, Lou Zhu, who returned to the city, was now standing on top of the city, his face full of anger. Behind him, the Shu people's generals and several small princes also had dark faces.
Not far from Dawan City, smoke and dust were already billowing. The enemy camp was out and about to attack them.
"The King of Shu is not here yet." Lou Zhu took a breath.
"Your Majesty, it's too late! It's better to guard the city gate first."
"You have also seen that Dawan City is still under repair."
Lou Zhu turned around and closed his eyes, his face full of confusion. At this time, if he surrendered to those enemy forces, in the hope of ever-lasting friendship, perhaps——
But soon, Lou Zhu shook his head and shook off these thoughts. Inexplicably, he thought of the siege battle that night again. For some reason, even in this situation, he was still willing to believe in the King of Shu.
This is like a fork in the road. If you go in the wrong direction, you will be in danger.
"King Dayuan..." At this time, a small king took advantage of the opportunity and walked up to Lou Zhu.
"The King of Dayuan also saw it. The King of Shu has not arrived yet, but the enemy army is strong."
"What do you want to say?" Lou Zhu's eyes turned cold.
When the little king saw this, his face became pale for no apparent reason, he was silent for a moment, and finally stepped back.
"Raise your sword and prepare to fight!" Finally, Lou Zhu gritted his teeth and began to order the defense of the city.
"Battle of Infantry and Bow, get ready!"
…
"Everyone, we are almost arriving at Dawan City!" Riding on his horse, Miran raised his head and laughed. The city of Dawan not far in front of him was already a pig and sheep waiting to be slaughtered in his eyes.
"After destroying Dawan City, we will kill the Xu thieves together! How can the countries in the Western Regions allow the Central Plains thieves to set foot!"
"Kill it!"
Under Miran's order, the killing sound became even louder. In all directions, there were figures rushing away. Many barbarian cavalry also began to gallop on horseback. As they ran, they threw long rope hooks and hit the suspension bridge of Dawan City.
Unlike the Central Plains, due to scarcity of wood, siege equipment was limited. More methods of siege are to build earthen buildings or lower hanging doors.
Hundreds of barbarian war horses straightened the long ropes around the horses' heads and began to pull in the opposite direction.
"Shoot them to death!" On the top of the city, Louzhu was furious when he saw this.
The drawbridge was dragged down, the traps of the trenches, and the condescending terrain were no longer meaningful.
Waves of flying arrows continued to shoot down from the top of the city and from the bow window. Even on the edge of the arch of the city wall, there were defenders pushing crossbows, roaring and shooting at the hundreds of enemy cavalry who were dragging them.
Clang clang clang.
As the men and horses were damaged in the battle, the force of dragging the portcullis slowed down, and the remaining riders cut off the nooses one after another and retreated reluctantly.
"Cover the rear troops to build earthen buildings!" Miran shouted angrily.
Countless barbarian infantrymen held up shields, brandished scimitars, and roared repeatedly.
Behind Miran.
Unlike the other two princes, Yu Xu raised his head silently and stared at the city gate in front of him. Although he is the prince of the Cone Dog Kingdom and a native of the Western Regions. But when he was young, he went to the Central Plains disguised as a horse merchant, listened to the Confucianism of the Central Plains, and also read the Taoist strategies of the Central Plains.
I think he is somewhat smarter than the other two princes. We can even more understand what kind of fighting was going on in King Xi's palace at that time. As luck would have it, that Miran was able to escape unscathed.
When the envoy from Shu arrived, he suddenly lost his temper.
It is said in books from the Central Plains that if a man cannot be frank, he must have something evil in his heart.
Yu Xu closed his eyes and stopped the general following him.
"Don't worry, follow my orders and then attack."
…
"Go around to the northwest." Xu Mu calmly ordered on the long road in the desert. Behind him, there were only eight thousand people, some of whom were infantry.
According to urgent reports from the front, the army gathered by the four countries has reached nearly one hundred thousand.
"Lord, there have been seven scouts coming to Dawan City asking for help... Why do they have to go around at this time?" Yan Yong, who followed, was a little confused.
"There are only eight thousand people, and we can't stop them even if we go there. The battlefield is changing rapidly. The enemy is angry and attacks first. The enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered. We have lost the momentum of reinforcements."
"What do you mean, lord?"
Xu Mu raised his head, his face extremely calm, "Join the Liu tribe's tens of thousands of troops to surround the four kingdoms. I know that there must be defenders from the four kingdoms. But no matter what, we are planning a surprise attack now, and we should have a slight chance of winning."
"Yanyong, if I follow their ideas and rush to the rescue, it may not be a sheep in the tiger's mouth. But if I change my goal and only hit the base of the four countries, I can force the enemy troops on the front line to quickly return to the rescue. Furthermore, maybe It can also destroy a wave of morale.”
"The king who escaped is from the Yu Kingdom?"
"Exactly, it seems to be called Miran. And Yu is also the weakest among the four countries."
Xu Mu sneered, "In that case, let's fulfill his wish and attack Yu Kingdom first!"
