"Enemy?" He Lian was stunned. Could it be that the people in the city had come out or the Huns came? "Where did the enemy come from?"

"I don't know." Luo Zhijian Diao said gasping.

He Lian was so amused and crying: "I don't know, I don't know what you are so nervous about?"

"Listen to me." Luo Zhijian Diao looked nervous. He explained that none of the scouts released last night came back. What was going on around them now? They knew nothing about it now. No scouts sent out survived 50 steps away from the camp. A 50-person patrol team was missing, and even the bodies were not found, as if they had disappeared out of thin air.

He Lian was also surprised. Generally speaking, after a large number of scouts disappeared, the enemy's army would attack. In order to cover up the whereabouts of the army, the other party would send a large number of people to kill the scouts. The soldiers who can be scouts are experienced veterans, with high martial arts skills and outstanding personal combat power. Usually there are not many people like this.

It is basically impossible to control the other party's whereabouts in such a leak. What's more, it was snowing two days ago and it was heavy snowing in the wild, so it was difficult to find the other party's whereabouts. No matter how tight the encirclement is, there will always be people who miss the net.

What kind of army is this, and where did it come from? He Lian was confused and frightened.

"Immediately, stop siegeing the city." After a brief loss of consciousness, He Lian came back to his senses and said loudly to Luo Zhi Jian Di Ao: "Cross the river and move closer to Heyin City, and follow the Qiming Tribe."

Luo Jian Diao soon understood He Lian's concern. It was absolutely unwise to have such an enemy beside him. Protecting himself was the most important thing at this time. Without saying a word, he immediately evacuated the army from Jiuyuan City, and at the same time sent a letter to Shuofang's father, asking him to send someone to support him immediately.

He Lian stopped shouting and said to Luo Zhijian Diao, do you know how many enemies there are? Who is it?

Luo Zhijian Diao was confused and didn't know.

If you don’t know, you ask the Grandmaster for help. It would be strange if the Grandmaster doesn’t call you a fool.

Luo Zhijian Diao was stunned. He could neither attack the city nor ask for help. What should the general do if he asked about the progress of the siege?

You have to report the police, but you can't report it like this. After calling the messenger with the company, you told the general that a group of enemies have appeared here, and the specific situation is not known yet. For the safety of the army, we are searching with all our might. Please pay attention to the safety of the surrounding areas.

The commander led the command and left. For safety reasons, He Lian sent ten commanders to run from different roads to Shuofang City, so as not to be intercepted by the other party in the middle of the journey and could not pass the news to the hands of the commander.

...

A Xianbei knight panted and urged the war horses to move out of breath by the river outside Yiliang City. The thick snow seriously hindered the speed of the war horses. However, after thirty miles, the war horses were exhausted and breathed rapidly, spitting out clusters of white. The bright white snow fields around them looked so boundless, as if they could never walk. It was only 200 miles from Jiuyuan to Shuofang. When it didn't snow, the journey could be reached at most half a day, but now it seems that he could not deliver the news to the commander without two days.

The knight plucked the war horse hard, and the war horse tried hard to run, but after a few steps, it slowed down again. Sweat poured out of the fine horse hair and soon formed ice.

"Heavenly God of Chishan, this heaven is so deadly coming out to fight." The knight lamented and patted his cheek hard, telling himself not to fall off the horse. Suddenly, he heard a dangerous sound, and instinctively turned over and dismounted, falling into the snow pile.

A feathered arrow hit his shoulder, and blood gushed out, soaking his fur coat quickly. The knight gritted his teeth and broke the arrow shaft with force, but left the arrow in the flesh. If the arrow was pulled out at this time, the blood would flow faster, and he would soon become unconscious due to blood loss. In such a snow, dizziness would be like freezing to death.

He hid under the horse's belly, looked around vigilantly, and at the same time he picked up his own bow and took an arrow.

In the snow eighty steps away, a man slowly stood up. He was wearing a white cloak, holding a bow in his hand, looking at the knight with a smile, and opened his hand and said, "Surrender, you won't die."

The knight hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, suddenly stood up, shot an arrow at lightning speed, and then used all his strength to start running towards Jiuyuan in vain.

With a "swoosh", another feather arrow flew over and shot through his neck. Blood spurted out and bloomed on the snow. The man walked over with a bow and carefully. Seeing that the Xianbei knight was dead, he put down his bow. He threw the knight who had not walked a few steps away onto the horse's back and led the horse to the valley in the distance.

Three corpses lay in front of Liu Xiu.

Wang Yun looked at the wooden sign handed over by the killer and handed it to Liu Xiu: "It's also a warning."

Liu Xiu nodded. It seemed that He Lian was not confused yet. He just warned and did not ask for help, which made his plan to attack the opponent's reinforcements fail. He glanced at Xun You. Xun You was thin and not wearing iron armor, but wearing an extra coat, round like a snowball. He looked at the corpse on the ground calmly, "He was cautious enough to send three people along the river."

Wang Yun smiled: "Gongda is right. He must have sent people to go from other directions. It is unlikely to intercept all the messengers within such a large range."

Xun You nodded and said nothing. Seeing that he looked calm, Liu Xiu knew that he had a new plan, and felt much more at ease. He asked Wang Yun and others to continue monitoring and keep alert, and then he turned to Xun You: "Gongda, what are the plans?"

"Although Helian did not ask for help, he sent so many people to warn him. It is impossible for Luo Jianluo to feel the danger." Xun You said slowly: "I am sure that within five days, even if Luo Jianluo does not send reinforcements, at least he will have to send a baggage team. Otherwise, Helian would not be able to complete the siege mission. Of course, these baggage teams will also be protected by heavy troops."

Liu Xiu understood and nodded repeatedly.

...

Luo Zhiluo was in his fifties, of medium figure, very strong, with a black face and a pair of gloomy eyes hidden under his heavy eyebrows. He held the wooden sign and looked at the picture on it. With a little force, the wooden sign cracked into pieces.

He Lian said that there were unknown enemies outside Jiuyuan City and they were pursuing them. He Lian did not talk about siege, but Luo Zhiluo understood his implicit meaning: Since there were enemies outside the city, he certainly would not attack the city at this time.

Luo Zhi Jianluo was very angry. He felt that he was using various excuses to resist his order to attack the city. There was also the warning of the Linghu Tribe in the south, so how could a large number of enemies reach the vicinity of Jiuyuan? Whether it was Liu Xiu in the direction of the Great City Pass, or the enemies in the direction of Meiji and Manbai, it was impossible for them to pass through the location of the Linghu Tribe quietly.

What's more, it took a few days to snow, and it was impossible to march at this time. In the next few days, long-distance marching will be an impossible thing. As for Lian, there is no other purpose, only one, that is, to avoid siege.

He Lian wanted to siege the Great City Clan and capture Liu Xiu, but now it has snowed so heavily. Perhaps the Kuangsha Tribe can reach the Great City Clan in a short time and cut off Liu Xiu's retreat, but it is difficult for them to siege the Great City Clan as scheduled. His plan looks good, but in fact it cannot be implemented at all.

What's more, Luo Zhiluo knew that the deduction of the Kuangsha Tribe's Sun Rule might not have agreed to He Lian's plan, so he made him travel all the way to the Great City Pass to capture Liu Xiu, and he refused to agree no matter what. His biggest possibility was to directly attack Beidi County, plunder and escape unscathed.

He Lian thought he was smart, and he didn't understand what the commanders of various tribes were thinking.

Luo Zhi Jianluo was very dissatisfied with Helian's resistance to siege, but he also knew that Helian and others had only taken away half a month's baggage. If they were not replenished in time, Helian and they would have no food. At that time, Helian would retreat under the pretext of fasting and completely bury his plan to capture Jiuyuan City.

The Red Ridge tribe entered the border in large numbers, but all the Han people entered the city to defend themselves. All the gains were to put down the Hun tribes and livestock that Jian Di Ao He and Lian began to plunder. However, in the battle of Qingyanze, most of these spoils were taken away by the Han people. If they did not capture Shuofang and Jiuyuan, they would have to return empty-handed. If they captured these two cities, they would be able to return with full load.

"Send five thousand people to escort a batch of food, grass and livestock to Luozhi Jian Diao, telling him that if he dares to give up the task of attacking Jiuyuan without authorization, I will kill him." Luozhi Jian Luoluo said gritting his teeth, pointing to the little coach Wumeng, "You go to Jiuyuan, if they are disobedient, all the troops will be commanded by you."

Wu Meng bowed to take the order, then prepared the food and grass, and left Shuofang with more than 6,000 of his subordinates.

...

Looking at the long convoy of Xianbei people coming, Liu Xiu finally breathed a sigh of relief. If Xun You had not said it very certainly, he would have almost given up. When he came out, he had only brought dry food for ten days, and today was the ninth day. If the Xianbei people did not come, he would have gone hungry. The soldiers were a little worried, and he was anxious, but he did not dare to show a little lack of confidence on his face.

Xu Huang sent the news that the Xianbei baggage team was out of the camp two days ago, but he was not really relieved until now that he saw the baggage team with his own eyes, because if the Xianbei people were too slow to move forward because the road was difficult, he would still have to stop cooking.

Food is the guarantee of confidence. Once the food is out of stock, this army that looks very strong in morale but has very limited psychological endurance will collapse. A slight difference will lead to a huge loss. This time he put a considerable portion of his hopes on the legendary figure Xun You. If he is wrong, he may be doomed.

Xun You wrapped in the cloak and sat quietly against a big rock. When he heard the latest news, he said nothing, but just took two sips of wine in succession, and a smile appeared on his pale face for the first time.

"Loufan Camp occupies the high ground on both sides. Within ten breaths, more than half of the officers on the other side must be eliminated so that they cannot organize an effective counterattack." Liu Xiu looked at Wang Yun seriously, "I have all the best archers to you, and I hope you don't let me down."

Wang Yun nodded: "Please rest assured. If the task cannot be completed, the establishment of Loufanying Camp will be cancelled from now on."

Liu Xiu turned his head to look at Lu Bu, Zhao Yun: "Fengxian is on the left and Zilong is on the right. Your goal is very clear, which is to attack the little coach named Wu Meng. If we kill him in the first time, we will win half of it."

Lu Bu and Zhao Yun looked at each other and smiled at each other.

"By the beginning, you guard the exit and a Xianbei man escaped. I only ask. Wenyou, no matter how many people there are behind you, when the drum sounds, you must attack immediately. If a Xianbei man comes in to reinforce, your army Sima will be over."

Yuan Shao and Han Sui answered loudly.

"Bodao, Yide, your task is to light fire and boil water, and today let everyone have a meal of meat and taste the taste of victory."

Hao Zhao and Zhang Fei curled their lips and responded helplessly. As soon as they heard that there was hot food today, Sima and the Junhou present began to be excited. In order to hide their whereabouts for eight or nine days, they have been eating dry food. Although the dry food tastes good, eating cold food every day is indeed not a comfortable thing. At this time, a bowl of hot mutton soup, which is hot from head to toe, is so comfortable.

"Don't be too happy too early." Liu Xiu waved his hand and signaled them to be quiet: "Those who complete the task have hot food to eat, but those who can't finish it, watch from the side."

"And—" Lu Bu raised his voice and said disapprovingly: "There is still something that cannot be completed for such a simple task? Zilong and I join forces and we can do everything in the world."

"I hope so." Liu Xiu smiled slightly, stood up, raised his right arm, and gently hit the breastplate: "I will win!"

Everyone stood up straight, used boxing armor, shouting loudly: "I will win!"

...

It took Wumeng an hour to enter Liu Xiu's eyes to enter the valley. When he saw the cliffs on both sides, Wumeng's first reaction was that there was finally a place to shelter from the wind. Speaking of Daqing Mountain is not far from Hebei, but the wind in the wild is still not small. After trekking in the snow for four days, they were cold and tired. Now they just want to find a place to shelter from the wind, make a fire to dry their hands and feet, and cook a large pot of hot soup to warm their stomachs. They didn't expect that there would be enemies in this peaceful valley.

The messengers coming and going did not mention that there were enemies in the valley, and the scouts sent by Wumeng did not find any traces of people in the valley. From Wumeng himself, he did not believe that there would be Han people marching in the wild in such weather. Moreover, even the Huns could not not make fires. As long as the fire was created, he would notice it even if it was fifty miles away.

When the rapid sound of war drums exploded on the mountainside, Wu Meng was stunned. All the Xianbei people were stunned. They looked at the rain of arrows pouring from the cliffs on both sides in a daze, without even the most basic reaction.

Is there an enemy here? No one dares to believe this fact, nor is it willing to believe this fact. Wu Meng even rubbed his eyes, afraid that it was because he had been walking in the snow for too long and had hallucinations.

One left and one right, two long arrows flew to the sky almost at the same time, and the sheep-headed arrow cut through the sky, with the sharp roar of death, rapidly enlarged in Wu Meng's eyes.

"Pu!" The two arrows shot into Wu Meng's chest at the same time without distinguishing order. The powerful force flew back with Wu Meng's body. Wu Meng opened his mouth wide, blood spurted out of his mouth, and his sob screams.

Before the action, Liu Xiu took care of Lu Bu and Zhao Yun repeatedly. Your archery skills are very strong, and it is no problem to penetrate Yang with a hundred steps, but on the battlefield, what I want is the killing effect. As long as it can kill the opponent, it can be done wherever it is. One arrow piercing the throat is beautiful, but the hit rate is not as good as the chest after all. The sheep-headed arrow of our Han army is enough to break the armor, and the three-stone strong bow you used is almost a god blocking the killing gods within fifty steps. Why do you have to shoot the throat?

You guys cum on his chest!

Lu Bu and Zhao Yun knew the importance of this battle and knew the importance of whether they could shoot Wu Meng as soon as possible, so they faithfully carried out Liu Xiu's order. Two sheep-headed arrows shot through the iron armor on Wu Meng's body, shooting Wu Meng in one fell swoop.

This is Wu Meng's glory, and he can get the same attack as Lu Bu and Zhao Yun. This is the first and may be the last one.

Lu Bu smiled proudly and continued to shoot at a dazzling speed. With every sound of the string, a Xianbei knight was caught.

On the other hillside, Zhao Yun shot arrows slowly. His speed was not as fast as Lu Bu, but his accuracy was not inferior. Moreover, the target he chose was more important. In a moment, he shot and killed three centurions and one thousand-strong commander.

The main shooter carefully selected by Lou Fanjian had no other eyes. As long as the person wearing armor was the target of their care, no matter whether he was a centurion or a thousand-man commander. The Xianbei people were very poor, and most of their soldiers could only wear leather armor. Only centurions, thousand-man commanders and others could afford armor. Less than 30% of the soldiers could wear leather armor.

The drums were like thunder, arrows were like feathers, and the locust-like arrows seemed to cover the sky, and the blue sky was darkened. The Xianbei people were caught off guard and were shot in chaos by the dense and precise arrow formation. Some of them urged their horses to run forward, some jumped off their horses, and wanted to hide under the horse's belly or in the baggage cart, and some raised their shields, or they rushed forward to rush out of the short valley and leave the deadly arrow formation.

In just ten breaths, after one drum, corpses were everywhere in the valley, and more than half of the Xianbei people were killed or injured.

Another round of puffs came up, and two thousand soldiers holding hooked and ringed swords surged down the valley like a tide, killing the Xianbei people who had not yet come back to their senses. Although the number of Xianbei people was quite large, most of their officers were shot and killed immediately. Without unified command, they could only fight on their own. The Changshui Camp faced was in orderly command, and their weapons and equipment were far better than them. The morale was not comparable to them. The battle situation showed a one-sided trend from the beginning.

At the mouth of the valley, Yuan Shao stood with a sword. Looking at the Xianbei people rushing out in scattered stars, he breathed a sigh of relief. His subordinates reduced their personnel the most severe and their morale was the lowest. If the Xianbei people came too hard, he might not be able to resist it. Don’t worry now. Such a few people can only make the soldiers enjoy it. Smell the smell of blood. Some people may not have the chance to cut people.

Unlike the last time that he charged with the army, most people were dismounted from the stomping battle this time. In this regard, except for Liu Xiu's personal guard camp, Yuan Shao's subordinates were the best at it, so Liu Xiu handed over the task of forming a formation to Yuan Shao.
Chapter completed!
