Chapter 639: The Huns Are Coming

Youxian King Gu Le took the distress letter from King Qiuci, frowned and read it for a long time, and finally said: "The envoy goes down first, I want to think about it."

The envoy of King Qiuci said with some concern: "Youxian King, my king promises that I will do my best to worship Youxian King. After this battle, next year there will be an increase of 100,000 gold and silver, and 10,000 cattle and sheep."

"Okay, let's go down." You Xian Wang waved his hand.

The envoy had no choice but to withdraw from the account of the Right Wise King of the Huns.

King Youxian looked to the left and right, and said: "I was really careless before, and it turned out that a small guard of the guard's army became a climate. What do you think should be done?"

Several commanders under King Youxian's tent began to discuss.

"Your Majesty, of course we are going to fight. We must frighten those small countries that dare to resist us, and let them see that the end of resisting us is destruction. Those miscellaneous soldiers gathered together are not to be feared. We only need to send 10,000 cavalry to make sure once will destroy them.”

"Yeah, if we let them continue to operate, they will only become more and more stable. It is best to destroy them when they are not stable. Perhaps, we can take the opportunity to take over Kucha."

"What's the use of land? What we want are gold and silver, horses, cattle and sheep, and women."

"Hahahaha, then let the King of Kucha offer five times as much."

"Yes, we helped King Kucha repel the Han people, ten times is not much."

King Youxian looked at the group of confident guys below, showing a confident smile. The Huns were never afraid of war in the grasslands and deserts. When the Han Dynasty was first established, they almost killed their founding emperor. If he hadn't used gold and silver to pray for peace, what would happen later.

Han Wu, Wei Qing, Huo Qubing, that era is gone forever, now that the Central Plains is in chaos, it is the time for the Huns to rise again.

"Okay, the army will start to be assembled tomorrow, and we will set off in three days' time to attack Kucha directly. After destroying those so-called coalition forces, we will wipe out all the small countries that dare to resist us, so as to deter the countries in the Western Regions and prevent future troubles. The Western Regions are our pastures, we can take whatever we want, hahaha." King You Xian said with a rainbow of momentum.

Jiang Hao dispatched three armies to attack Xincheng, Luntai, and Qiucha City respectively. The army in Qiucha City was only to prevent Qiucha City from sending reinforcements to both sides. Jiang Hao's real purpose was to take down the two surrounding cities as soon as possible. In winter, the Western Regions are cold in winter, and when it snows, people can really freeze to death.

Taking Luntai and Xincheng can be used as a forward base, so at this moment Jiang Hao is not under the city of Qiuci, but under the city of Luntai.

Looking at the two-foot-high earthen city wall, Jiang Hao said to a general, "Put up my banner, go to the city to shout, give the other party a stick of incense time to think, open the city gate and surrender, everyone will forget the past, if you resist In the end, after the city is broken, all the officers above the rank will be killed."

In ancient wars, siege can be said to be a problem that all generals will encounter. When encountering stubborn resistance, many generals will shout that they will slaughter the city after the city is broken. Jiang Hao thinks this sentence is really stupid. Do the people here resist to the end?

"Also, let the Kucha people pick up the sword in their hands and say that I am here to help the Kucha people restore their country. The Kucha people kill Shache officers, kill the army to become the army, kill the school lieutenant to become the school lieutenant, and kill the general. Be a general."

The guards in the city were originally Shache people generals, the school lieutenant, military marquis, team leader and other official positions were basically Shache people, and the soldiers under the first rank were almost all the former Kucha people.

Jiang Hao played another trick to kill his heart.

"promise!"

The general took the order and ran to the city with a team of flag guards, and stopped to shout at the distance that the arrows could not shoot.

Now that Jiang Hao's name has been spread in the Western Regions, everyone knows that there is a new General Protector in the Western Regions. He uses soldiers like a god and is invincible in planning. .

Right now, the big black flag of the Protectorate of the Imperial Guard stands at the foot of the city, and the black flag is fluttering in the wind, and many people feel terrified when they see it.

The generals sent by Jiang Hao shouted under the city. After Jiang Hao's order was spoken, the already tense atmosphere in the city suddenly became more subtle.

Those Shache officers suddenly looked at the Kucha soldiers around them, and felt that the swords, guns, bows and arrows in their hands might cut at them at any time.

The general guarding the city looked at the dark army below the city, feeling more and more desolate. He knew that now that the chief guard's words came out, he might not have the capital to resist. The soldiers will swing the butcher's knife at their officers the first time.

Oh shit,

Your Majesty, don't blame me, I really can't resist it.

"Boom~~"

The city gate of Luntai was wide open, and groups of soldiers came out. The generals defending the city chose to surrender. In fact, many of those Kucha soldiers still felt pity in their hearts. What a rare opportunity. If you kill a military marquis or lieutenant, you can become a general yourself.

These Shache people were really cowardly, so they surrendered.

Jiang Hao smiled, soldiers are impermanent, and water is impermanent! The way of using soldiers is varied!

Jiang Hao has read a lot of military books, and he also likes some of the theories in it. In modern society, he has no chance to participate in such ancient wars. Now that he has the opportunity, he displays it, and immediately feels very happy.

"Gather the troops and enter the city." Jiang Hao ordered.

This side successfully captured Luntai City, but it was not so easy for Xincheng. Keji, Luoweina, Yanqi, Yuli, and Shanguo each led 2,000 soldiers and horses, and a total of 10,000 troops arrived at the city.

After calling the battle, the opponent refused to open the city.

Ke Ji opened the bag that Jiang Hao had given before, and after reading it, he asked a military officer to lead someone to shout again. The content was exactly the same as what Jiang Hao said in Luntai.

But that general was very stubborn, he yelled and cursed at the city from the top of the city, and in the end even Jiang Hao cursed him.

"Wow~~"

"Bastard, I'm so mad, you dare to insult our general, you're a fool, I'm going to tear that bastard apart."

"Yes, go to the city."

"The broken city is at this moment."

None of the guys have a good temper. They don't have Jiang Hao's aura, nor his composure. They get angry when they are provoked, and they are ready to attack.

"kill!"

Each of the five sent a thousand men, got off their horses and carried the siege ladders, and began to attack the city from three sides. However, Corgi still retained the last bit of reason, and ordered the people to call out to the Kucha people and kill the generals of the Shache people when attacking the city. Merits can be obtained.

"Kill!"

A big battle has begun, the coalition forces are aggressive, the Kucha soldiers at the top of the city are not stupid, how could they work for the Shache people, waving knives and guns at the top of the city is just a pose, the only ones fighting to the death are the general's 500 personal guards and other teams officer.

During the siege, bows, feathers and arrows, rolling wood and stones kept falling down, and people fell from the siege ladder from time to time, and casualties were inevitable. In two quarters of an hour, the coalition forces took over the city.

The soldiers immediately dropped their weapons and surrendered, and more and more people surrounded and killed the general who defended the city and his hundreds of personal guards. I have to say that this general is really brave, and his personal guards are also a group of loyal and fierce soldiers, who even fought hard. Kill to the end no one survives.

In this battle, the coalition lost 1,000 people and wiped out more than 800 Shache people. According to the previous announcement, several generals found out all the Shache people officers, pressed them out of the city and beheaded them all. A large area was dyed red, and after countless years, the stones in that area are still red.

Jiang Hao was very happy when he received the news that Xincheng had been breached. Both Xincheng and Luntai City were about 30 miles away from Qiuci City. They were separated from each other. They were also cities on the Silk Road. The cities were large and prosperous, and one city was enough to support 20,000 soldiers. .

Now occupying two cities, forming a pincer attack on the Kucha Kingdom, no matter how stubbornly the King of Kucha resists, he has already become a turtle in a urn, unable to escape even if he wants to.

Just when Jiang Hao was happy, Her Majesty the Queen came over with a secret letter, with a worried look on her face.

yes,

Although Di Linaza has become the queen, her current job is mainly to be Jiang Hao's secretary, and at the same time, she is in charge of the dark intelligence network.

Her Majesty, that's how it should be used.

"Your Majesty, I received a message from a secret agent hidden in Che Shi Kingdom that the Huns are reorganizing their army, and at the same time they are asking Che Shi Kingdom to provide 30,000 people with food and grass for the march." Dina said and handed a piece of letter paper to Jiang Hao.

Jiang Hao took it and looked at it again, a sharp light flashed in his eyes, and said: "I thought it would be winter, and I would have contact with the Huns next year. Now it seems that the Huns can't wait."

"He is afraid that if we break through Kucha, our strength will become stronger as time goes by, and he wants to beat us down while we are unstable."

Queen Dina heard Jiang Hao's words and said worriedly: "Your Majesty, the Huns are sending troops with all their might, can we stop them?"

"We will meet sooner or later, it's just a matter of time. Since the Huns have chosen now, let's have a good touch with him."

Jiang Hao stood in front of the map and looked at it. After a while, he said: "There are two roads from the Cheshi National Highway to Kucha. There are also many countries. The second road is to go west to Qimi country, cross the Tianshan gorge and go directly to the territory of Kucha.”

"So what do we do?" Dina asked.

"We will make a decision after investigation."

On the same day, Jiang Hao sent two golden eagles out to Cheshi Kingdom, which was 600 miles away. After two days, the two golden eagles came back. Jiang Hao found out that the Huns actually Divide the troops into two groups.

There were about 10,000 people on the way, heading towards Qimi Kingdom, while the king's tent of King Youxian of the Xiongnu slowly opened up, and more than 20,000 troops marched towards Yanqi Kingdom.

A large cart with forty wheels was pulled by forty strong oxen. Above it was a huge tent with white leather cloth and a golden roof. There were ribbons and tassels hanging around it, and the north wind could not stop it from flying. The swing is really nice.

This is King Youxian's tent. It is very spacious inside. There is a hall in front where generals can be summoned and military meetings are usually held. There is half of the space at the back, which is King Youxian's harem, where several of his women live. Waiting for his favor at any time.

There was a brazier in the tent and it was very warm. There was a table in the hall with beef and wine on the table. King You Xian was drinking and chatting with some of his subordinates.

Cut off a piece of beef tendon with a knife and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing vigorously, the Youxian King said in a dark voice: "I have informed Yanqi a long time ago to let them surrender and pay tribute, but I never thought that I would dare to send soldiers and horses to the Han people, hum , I really don’t know how to live or die.”

"Tell the sons and daughters, to plunder, take back everything that can be plundered, horses, cattle and sheep, and grain to make army rations, women can enjoy them as they please, and kill all men, old people, and children."

"The same is true for Yuli and Shanguo. If you don't take the initiative to pay tribute, I, Gu Le, will take it myself."

After the commanders heard this, they all showed excitement, "Yes, if you don't pay tribute, let's go get it ourselves, and get it more thoroughly."

"Don't worry, my lord, this time I will definitely be able to deter all the small countries that are not convinced."

"The sons under my command have long wanted women. With the king's order, those wolf cubs will definitely yell and brandish their sabers and snatch everything they can."
