Xu Wushan is located in the northeast of Wuzhong County.
This large mountain is the junction area between Wuzhong County and Xuwu County, and is a continuous mountainous area.
Tian Chou was released by Gongsun Zan. He had a premonition of chaos in Youzhou, so he took his family and moved to live at the foot of Xu Wu Mountain. In this open area, there were only members of the Tian family at first.
However, Tian Chou's reputation was so great that countless people came to join him. In just a few years, tens of thousands of people have gathered here to live. Therefore, in the initially flat area, docks were built to form a closed city.
Countless people live inside.
In order to ensure local stability, Tian Chou formulated laws on murder, theft, and marriage to regulate the people who depended on Xu Wushan. Moreover, Tian Chou personally opened a school and taught knowledge so that the people gathered at the foot of the mountain could study.
In the end, people’s hearts surrendered.
The people recognized Tian Chou and obeyed Tian Chou's arrangements.
In order to ensure the stability of the region, Tian Chou recruited people and formed an army of 3,000 people to ensure the security of the region.
During this time, Tian Chou had a headache.
Because You Beiping Chanyu and Hanlu King Wuyan, with more than ten thousand Wuhuan soldiers, arrived outside Xu Wushan to ask Tian Chou to serve. Tian Chou didn't think about it at all and refused directly.
He is a Han and a subject of the Han Dynasty. Serving for the Wuhuan people is tantamount to betraying his own ethnic group.
This is something Tian Chou would not do.
Fortunately, a Wubao was built in the area where Tian Chou was located. Even if Wuyan attacked, he could use the Wubao to resist.
On this day, Tian Chou was handling government affairs in his room. An attendant ran over and said loudly: "Master, Wu Yan is shouting outside Wubao. If you don't give me an answer, he will attack Wubao."
After hearing this, Tian Chou's eyes gradually became sharp. He stood up directly, took off his sword from the weapon rack, and said in a deep voice: "After delaying for so many days, we are fully prepared. If Wu Yan wants to attack, let him attack. "
After saying that, Tian Chou walked straight out.
It didn't take long, and Tian Chou and his people quickly came to the tower of Wubao. They saw Wu Yan's army with their troops in formation, and also noticed Wu Yan riding on the horse.
Tian Chou did not hesitate and said decisively: "Wu Yan, it is impossible for me to serve you. If you want to attack, just come."
Wu Yan was forty years old, very muscular, with a beard under his chin, and a pair of cunning little eyes. He looked at Tian Chou on the tower with a greedy look in his eyes.
Tian Chou was from Liu Yu.
Liu Yu had high prestige and great influence in Youzhou in the past. Once Tian Chou plays for him, his influence and strength will be further enhanced. It may even surpass Tadun in the future.
This is Wuyan's ambition.
However, Tian Chou always refused to agree.
Wu Yan must hurry up. Once the news that he forced Tian Chou comes out, Tadun may intervene. Even other Wuhuan leaders may intervene, and then it will be difficult for him to force Tian Chou.
Wu Yan said loudly: "Tian Chou, in the words of you Han people, don't toast and eat as a penalty. If you really don't cooperate, I will rush into your fortress and kill all the tens of thousands of people you gathered." .”
Tian Chou's eyes were full of evil, and he said loudly: "None of my burly subjects kneel down to survive. If you want to attack, just come. The men in my Wubao are dead, and the women can still fight. The women are dead, but there is still a fight. The old and the weak can fight. How can I, the people of the Han family, serve for a Hu'er like you?"
Strong words came from Tian Chou's mouth.
Wu Yan was furious after hearing this. He waited for many days, but what he was waiting for was this sentence.
The people of the Han family will not serve Hu'er!
Hu'er!
How much contempt for him is this?
Wu Yan unsheathed his sword in an instant, with murderous intent in his eyes. He pointed his sword at the tower of Wubao and said loudly: "Tian Chou, I will give you one last chance. If you work for me, I will not kill you. Otherwise, I will Kill you all. Before, I arranged for people to give you gifts in order to get closer to you. Do you really think that I am afraid of you? "
Tian Chou did not give in at all, and said sarcastically: "I have fed the dogs all the gifts you sent me. How could I, a descendant of the Han family, want such stupid things from you? You were originally a vassal of the Han Dynasty and obeyed the Han Dynasty. Now, , actually deceiving the master with his slave."
"You are so ruthless now. When I, the big man, come back, it will be easy to kill you Hu'er. If you know the truth and retreat honestly now, everyone will be in peace. If you want to fight, I, Tian Chou, will fight to the death."
Wu Yan became even more angry when he heard this.
Tian Chou is too ignorant.
He stayed at the foot of Xu Wushan for several days. To this day, Tian Chou not only refused, but also cursed him.
"Send an order to storm Wubao. After destroying Tianchou's Wubao, I allow you to slaughter and plunder. Whatever you take is yours."
Wu Yan gave the order.
Upon hearing the sound, large numbers of Wuhuan soldiers moved and attacked Wubao on a large scale. Unlike the Han army's attack, which had various siege weapons, the Wuhuan soldiers only had simple ladders.
Large groups of Wuhuan soldiers continued to attack Wubao.
Tian Chou's expression remained unchanged, without any panic. He arranged for archers to release arrows to block them, and at the same time, they smashed down logs and boulders to block the Wuhuan soldiers' attack. Under the command of Tian Chou, the defense on the tower was in order.
Even though large numbers of Wuhuan soldiers came to kill him, Tian Chou still did not panic.
Tian Chou's calmness prevented the defending soldiers from panicking, and all the soldiers resisted the Wuhuan soldiers' attack. Everyone knows that once Wubao is destroyed and the Wuhuan people wreak havoc, there will be no life or death.
Everyone, fight hard to kill the enemy.
As the fighting continued, a trace of worry appeared in Tian Chou's eyes.
Wubao is not a real city, it is five or six feet high. The fortress he built was only less than two feet high, and it was not as strong as a city. In addition, the Wuhuan soldiers under Wu Yan were very elite, and Wu Yan promised to massacre the city after breaking the city. The Wuhuan soldiers' offensive was extremely fierce.
Tian Chou was under great pressure.
If he was guarding a real city, and with adequate preparations, Wu Yan's current population of more than 15,000 people, even if Tian Chou only had less than 2,000 people, would still be able to defend it with sufficient confidence.
Now, Tian Chou doesn't know how long he can persist.
The only thing he can do is hold on.
As time passed, Wuhuan soldiers attacked the tower several times and almost broke through Kaiwu Fort, but were beaten down by Tian Chou.
While Tian Chou was holding on, not far from the battlefield, the sentinels arranged by Lu Xuan discovered the fierce fighting. After finding out the situation, they flew back to report.
The four thousand elite cavalry led by Lu Xuan traveled all night last night and approached Xu Wushan after daybreak. However, Lu Xuan was not in a hurry to attack. After all, when he arrived, Wu Yan had only surrounded Wubao and had not yet launched an attack.
Therefore, Lu Xuan took the opportunity to hide in the dark and rest.
The sentry returned to Lu Xuan and reported: "Your Majesty, the number of Wu Yan's army is about fifteen thousand. Wu Yan's army is attacking the Wubao of Xu Wushan Tianchou. The dark crowd attacked. , Tianchou's Wubao is in danger."
Lu Xuan's eyes lit up, he stood up and said loudly: "Wu Yan has already launched a large-scale attack, and his attention is focused on attacking Wubao. Now, it is precisely the time for us to raid Wu Yan."
"Zi Long!"
Zhao Yun gave an order.
"The general is here!"
Zhao Yun answered loudly.
Lu Xuan ordered: "Lead our cavalry and prepare to set off. Last time, we killed Wu Bang. This time, we will kill Wu Yan and reunite their father and son. Also, bring out your Zhao banner."
"Here!"
Zhao Yun made arrangements immediately.
The army mobilized quickly, Lu Xuan still asked Jia Xu to stay behind, and then led Zhao Yun, Xu Chu and his party to attack Wubao at the foot of Xu Wu Mountain.
