Hanhu saw that Tuobalie had not mobilized his troops to rush into Pingjiang County, so he took the initiative to walk in front of Tuobalie and asked: "Chief Tuoba, Pingjiang County has been conquered, why don't you lead your clan quickly?" Are people coming into town?”
"I'm afraid I won't be able to grab anything if it's too late!"
Tuo Ba Lie turned his head and said with a dead smile to Hanhu: "Chief Hanhu, go ahead. We still have so many injured warriors in the rear. My tribe and I still have to take care of them."
What Tuo Ba Lie said was high-sounding, but Han Hu didn't believe it at all.
Those Khitan and Huns soldiers who attacked the city were only injured by arrows and could still stand up; those seriously injured by boiling excrement water and hot oil could not survive more than three days.
As for those who suffered minor burn injuries, due to bacterial infection, they gradually developed into serious injuries, and some even had to have their limbs amputated to save their lives.
Since Tuo Ba Lie did not take action, Hanhu decided to become a student who copied Tuo Ba Lie's homework. He also ordered the tribesmen not to enter the city without his own orders.
The Xiongnu and Khitan coalition forces fought against Pingliang County for more than half a month. Not only did they not achieve an inch of success, but also lost one hundred thousand soldiers. The descendants of the Khitan and Xiongnu pack of wolves had already accumulated a lot of anger in their hearts.
After the east gate of Pingjiang County was broken, countless Huns and Khitans rushed towards the city.
Khitan King Ashina Batu and Hun Prince Atamu walked in the middle of the team, escorted by their personal guards. The team in front was not blocked at all, and even a lot of sheep were discovered.
The Khitan and Huns soldiers in front even started fighting over the sheep.
When Ashina Batu and Atamu entered the city and saw this scene, Prince Atamu of the Huns directly gave up 60% of the spoils to the Khitan people in accordance with the previous agreement.
The Khitan King said with a cheerful face: "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. I heard from the tribesmen that there are countless cattle and sheep in Pingjiang County. Shortly after entering the city, thousands of sheep were found in the east of the city. There must be many more in other places in the city. There is no need to rob them." !”
As soon as the Khitan King finished saying this, he felt the earth tremble slightly, and there was even a rumbling sound from the west.
"Is there an earthquake?" Khitan King Ashinabadu frowned slightly.
Prince Atam of the Huns laughed and said: "This earthquake is very slight, not a big deal. If you, King Batu, are afraid, you can withdraw from the city and wait for my Changshengtian warriors to collect the loot in the city before fighting with you." Sixty-four points!"
Ashnaba was not sure what Atamu had planned. Naturally, he would not let his men withdraw from Pingjiang County in the event of a small earthquake. Instead, he ordered his warriors to rush into the city as soon as possible.
As soon as the order was given, a Xiongnu soldier hurried to Atamu and reported hurriedly: "Prince, cattle... cattle... many cattle... ahead."
Just when Atamu looked overjoyed, he was just about to give the order when he heard Khitan King Ashina Badu shouting before him: "Warriors of Zengtian, do you hear that? There are many, many cattle in front of us. This is your trophy! Charge and kill me!"
Atamu didn't talk nonsense. He pointed his riding whip westward and shouted "charge". The Hun soldiers under his command should also bravely rush towards the west.
Under the galloping horses of the Huns and Khitans, they did not even notice that the rumbling in the west was getting closer and louder.
The Hun soldier who came to deliver the news rested for a while, then came over and quickly stopped him: "We can't go forward, we can't go forward!"
"Those cows are coming towards us!"
The Khitan King raised the corner of his mouth and mocked disdainfully: "Why are you immortal warriors still afraid of cattle and sheep?"
The Hun soldier who delivered the message ignored the Khitan King's taunt and said anxiously: "Thousands of cattle are coming towards us!"
After hearing this, the expressions of the Khitan King and the Hun Prince changed greatly.
The next second they heard the thunderous sound of horse (ox) hooves, and saw the Huns and Khitan warriors who were rushing to the front one by one just now, turning their horses and rushing towards them crazily.
And each of them kept shouting: "Cow, cow, cow."
The Prince of Hun, who was not sure why, clapped his horse and stepped forward, like a sturgeon swimming upstream in the crowd.
But when Atamu saw thousands of running bulls with steel knives tied to their horns, oiled reeds tied to their tails, and fire-lit running towards his army, Atamu immediately took action against himself. Damn curiosity regret it!
The tips and tricks left by Zhou Yi were exactly the tactics invented by Qi general Tian Dan during the Warring States Period - the Fire Ox Formation.
In 284 BC, Le Yi led the six-nation coalition to attack Qi in revenge for Qi taking advantage of the internal chaos in Yan to send troops to Yan 30 years ago. The journey is invincible and overwhelming.
After the armies of the Six Nations defeated the main force of the Qi army in Liaocheng, the remaining five countries stopped their troops, and the Yan army continued to advance eastward and captured Linzi. In just half a year, more than 70 cities in Qi fell one after another, and finally only two isolated cities, Jucheng and Jimo, were left.
In 279 BC, after the death of King Yan Zhao, King Yan Hui came to the throne. King Yan Hui did not trust Le Yi very much. After hearing the rumors that Le Yi wanted to be the king of Qi, he sent a general to Qi to replace Le Yi. Tian Dan pretended to surrender to the Yan army and paralyzed the robbers. At night, Tian Dan tied more than a thousand oxen with weapons on their horns, tied reeds on their tails and filled them with oil, lit them with fire, and rushed towards the Yan army. Five thousand warriors followed. Charge and defeat the Yan army, killing Qi Jie. Tian Dan took advantage of the victory and captured more than seventy cities in a row.
In the past three years, Pingjiang County has exchanged tens of thousands of cattle with the Khitans, and their power is not comparable to Tian Dan's thousand cattle.
There are rumors in the Chen court that the Xiongnu (Khitan) have less than ten thousand people and are invincible if they are full of ten thousand people.
Even the more than 200,000 allied troops of the Khitan and the Huns rushed into Pingjiang County with great courage. Facing the situation of thousands of cattle galloping, they were all frightened.
The cattle and sheep that they once used as meat are now so terrifying when they are gathered together.
In Pingjiang County, just like Pingliang County, Qian Zhongshu's "Fortress Besieged" was once again staged.
The Huns and Khitans in the city desperately wanted to escape, while those outside the city rushed in, fearing that they would miss the good opportunity to grab the spoils.
Khitan King Ashina Batu, who had turned his horse around earlier, was also blocked in the city by the surging crowd and could not move.
In desperation, Ashina Badu waved the whip in his hand and whipped the panicked coalition troops around him, and kept shouting:
"retreat!"
"retreat!"
"retreat!"
However, Khitan King Ashina Batu's voice had no effect in the surging crowd.
The Huns who were whipped by Khitan King Ashina Batu were so angry that they took advantage of the chaos and pushed Ashina Batu off his horse.
