The purpose of the Hu people going south was to plunder food and population.

Every time the Hu people invaded the Great Xia Empire, they would take action after the autumn harvest and leave before the winter.

Before the autumn harvest, the grain still grew in the field. How could they harvest the grain by themselves?

Don’t withdraw to the grassland before winter? Are you waiting to be surrounded and annihilated by the Daxia army?

The next morning, Borji gave an order and the Qiang army was divided into four routes and headed straight for the four city gates.

Chen Yu is in charge of the north gate, Zhao Yuanzhi is in charge of the west gate, Zhu Zhengfei is in charge of the east gate, and Ma Wencai is in charge of the south gate.

At noon, the Yuan Qiang soldiers surrounding Jinghe County carried shields and logs, and rushed towards the city gate with great momentum.

"Drop the stone!" Chen Yu shouted loudly.

Soldiers, people, and yamen runners picked up fists-sized stones and threw them under the city walls.

The city wall is ten feet high and weighs about one pound of stones, which can kill people if it falls.

The covered stones fell from the sky continuously, and the screams of the Hu people rang one after another.

"Photography!" Borgi shouted loudly.

One by one, the soldiers of the Yuan Qiang clan bent their bows and strings, and arrows flew towards the city wall one by one.

The force of the arrows shot in the air continued to decrease, and when they flew to the city wall, there was little strength left.

"Please carry the injured brother down and let the doctors in the city treat him." Chen Yu said.

Tens of thousands of Hu people shot three rounds, and there were more than twenty soldiers and people injured.

The dense stones kept flying below the city gate, and Hu people were killed and injured by stones.

The stones originally used to defend the city weigh seven or eight kilograms, more than ten kilograms, or even dozens of kilograms.

The city wall is thirty meters high, and the Hu people don’t have a hard helmet. A stone the size of an egg can kill the city...

Chen Yu asked someone to prepare many fist-sized stones. After all, ordinary people have limited strength. The heavier the stone, the faster the physical strength is consumed.

If you use more than ten or dozens of kilograms of stone to defend the city, your head will pop up when you throw the stone. The Hu people's archery skills are not vegetarians.

A stone as big as a fist can be thrown out for more than ten meters at will, and most ordinary people can throw it out for more than ten minutes in a row.

"Mr. Chen, do you want to detonate a landmine?" asked a detective.

"It's still early, use up the stones, roll wood, and hot oil first, and then use landmines!" Chen Yu said.

At dusk, Borgi ordered the army to stop siege.

"Young clan leader, we have killed more than 3,000 people, seriously injured more than 1,000 people, and slightly injured more than 4,000 people." Batu, wearing armor, said.

"Uncle Batu, what are you going to do?" Borji asked.

"Most of the food was brought to Dasheng Pass by the clan leader. Our food was only enough for five days to eat. If we don't take Jinghe County, we will be in a dilemma and we will break the city within three days no matter what." Batu said.

"The city gate is extremely strong, and breaking through the city gate is not easy." Borgi said with a frown.

"There is nothing outside the city. There are people in the city who have food. As long as we break through the city gate, we can get supplies." Batu said.

In the past, when the Hu people went south to hunt grass valley, they could plunder a lot of food outside the city. After all, the autumn harvest had just ended, and the people's grain had not been handed over to the government office. Borji and the others had never expected that Jinghe County was firm and clear, and there was no food outside the city.

As a nomadic people, the army dominated by cavalry will not starve to death for a while.

If you are hungry, killing a war horse will make more than 100 people eat for a whole day.

Borji is Asfu's eldest son and the young leader of the Yuan Qiang tribe.

This time he went south to hunt Caogu because he was the young patriarch. In order to make him make contributions, Asfu let him take charge of the 150,000 troops.

The Hu people advocated force, but there was no order in terms of superiority and inferiority. It was very common for the Hu people to take their father and concubine as their wives and then have children.

Borgi has three brothers. Once the battle fails, he, the young patriarch, may be replaced.

The territory of Daxia is not a grassland, and there is no boundless plain, which is not conducive to cavalry running. It will take at least two days to bypass Jinghe County, which is more than 3,000 square kilometers. If they do not get food supplies, they can only kill war horses to satisfy their hunger.

I was not sure about the situation outside Jinghe County, so Borji could only choose to attack the city. If outside Jinghe County, like Jinghe County, all the people transported all their food... to the county town, more than 100,000 troops would definitely be defeated.

The unbearable hunger Yuan Qiang army will definitely be slaughtered by the Daxia army, which is waiting for trouble, like cutting melons and vegetables.

At the north gate, in the city tower, Chen Yu, who was lying on a chair, enjoyed the massage like jade and snow, and his spiritual sense spyed on the Hu people outside the city.

The next morning, a shocking roar sounded, and the dense Hu people of the Yuan Qiang tribe launched an attack from four directions.

The stones covered the sky fell like a storm, and one Hu man after another was killed and injured by stones.

"Swish swish swish!" The dense arrows shot out continuously and then fell from the sky.

Heart-wrenching screams kept ringing one after another.

In less than an hour, the Yuan Qiang army, which had more than 5,000 casualties, retreated helplessly again.

Half an hour later, Borji gritted his teeth and shouted: "Whoever grabs the gold and silver and beauty whoever grabs the gold and silver will belong to him!"

Hu soldiers rushed towards the city gate yelling...

"Mr. Chen, the stones are used up." said the soldiers, constables, yamen runners, and the people.

"Drunk the wood." Chen Yu said.

"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison, and rolled wood one by one, and were carried onto wooden boards by everyone.

A few young and strong wooden boards were lifted in one fell swoop, weighing more than 100 kilograms, and rolled down to the city.

In an instant, dozens of Hu people who were sieging the city were killed and injured.

One by one, one after another, lying under the city wall, the Hu people who were sieging the city had to risk their lives to clean up the wood.

There are rolling wood everywhere, and there is no place to settle down. Is it possible to lift the wood and knock open the city gate?

With the strength of two or three people alone, even if you use all your strength to feed your breasts, you can't even break the heavy city gate!

After killing and injuring more than 10,000 Hu people, the rolling wood they had prepared was used up.

Seeing that the enemy's rolling wood was used up, Borgi, whose eyes were red, shouted loudly: "Kill!"

"Preparation of hot oil!" Chen Yu said.

The people, soldiers, yamen runners, and constables, were wearing cotton coats and gloves, picked up water guns made of bamboo tubes, and drew a bamboo tube of hot oil from the large iron pot, and sprayed diagonally outside the city.

The boiling oil, which was temperatures up to more than 200 degrees, poured like a heavy rain, and the barbarians were being poured on.

"Ahhh!" A scream that resounded through the world came from the city.

Although the high-temperature oil arrows cannot kill the Hu people, they can make them worse than death. Seeing this, the rest of the Hu people were terrified.

"Attack Jinghe County with all your strength, kill all the people of Daxia in the city, and avenge the dead brothers." Borji said angrily.

After plundering countless outside the city, a coalition force of eighteen large Hu tribes came outside Qingshan County with great momentum.

"Who is the first to break through the city gate can take half of the supplies in the city." Sukel, the head of the Hungarian barbarian tribe, said with a smile.

"I agree!" said Habat, the leader of the Xiannu clan.

"Well, that should be." Ilemo, the leader of the Black Origin tribe, echoed.

After the discussion was completed, the 150,000 coalition forces divided into four, surrounded Qingshan County, and rushed to start siege.

Qiao Fu, the magistrate of Qingshan County, mobilized the people in the city to assist soldiers, constables, and yamen runners to defend the city.
