Chapter 544
Chapter 544
The corpses that fell to the ground shocked the eyes of every Xiongnu cavalryman.
They couldn't believe when the Han people's crossbows became so sharp.
At such a long distance, the power of the arrows could penetrate the hard skull and even the steel helmet of the cavalry general. What kind of power is this?
How could the Han people be so strong?
All kinds of questions were generated in the minds of the Xiongnu people.
They were suddenly stunned.
Bang bang bang!
Zhang Liao stood on the city wall and kept firing the Shenbi crossbow.
He hit the target every time.
Whether it was the Yanmen people on the city or the Xiongnu cavalry under the city, they were all stunned.
After a short period of daze, the Xiongnu cavalry reacted and hurriedly drove their horses away.
The news that there was a sharpshooter on the city wall spread instantly in the Xiongnu formation.
They dared not approach the city again.
"Stop the hell!"
Yu Fuluo, who was in the rear, waved his whip and lashed at the Xiongnu cavalrymen who were rushing back frantically and in chaos.
Under his control, the Xiongnu cavalry calmed down again.
After checking the statistics, Yu Fuluo found that all the cavalrymen who were shot dead were cavalry generals.
Five in total!
This made his heart bleed.
As the Han people said, it is easy to find a soldier, but it is hard to find a general.
Those five people were all warriors among them Xiongnu.
But they died so easily.
This made him feel very aggrieved.
If they were killed by the Han people in the battle, there would be nothing to say.
But the Xiongnu warriors fell under the arrows of the opponent, which made him feel that they did not play their original strength at all.
Die with eyes open!
Holding the whip tightly in his hand, Yu Fuluo looked at the city wall.
A big man stood on the city wall, carrying a huge crossbow.
Even though they were so far away, Yufuluo seemed to be able to see the other party's contemptuous and sharp eyes.
Alas!
He sighed deeply in his heart.
The Han people are Han people after all. Even at this time of weakness, they still have so many heroes.
Why is that?
And how hard it is for them, the Xiongnu, to give birth to such a hero.
This made him deeply feel the huge gap again.
Yufuluo glanced around the city wall.
There were no elite Han soldiers on it as he knew.
Most of them were wearing tattered clothes, and they were Han people from the border town at a glance.
Even such a small town, but in the eyes of them, the Xiongnu, it was still rich.
At least the food in the city was what they wanted very much.
Not to mention other supplies of the Han people.
Salt, iron, etc.
They were all precious to them.
"Besiege the city."
Yufuluo immediately gave the order.
"Attack the city from all sides."
"As long as the Han general on the wall goes to a certain direction, the other three directions will immediately strengthen the offensive."
"I don't believe that he can have three heads and six arms?"
"Can he take care of one side and all sides?"
Under Yu Fuluo's order, the Xiongnu cavalry scattered.
The wall of the border town was not too high.
The Xiongnu people could barely climb up the wall with hooks.
While suppressing the defenders on the wall with arrows, they climbed the wall to occupy a favorable position.
This is how they attack some small cities.
Although there are casualties, it is acceptable.
Compared with the huge benefits obtained by breaking through the city, some casualties are worth it.
After all, siege warfare is not a field cavalry battle.
"Attack!"
With Yu Fuluo's order, the Xiongnu soldiers in the other three directions took the lead in launching an attack.
There were wooden shields on the walls to block their arrows, so the Huns tried to climb up using hooks.
For a moment, the pressure on the other three walls doubled.
Zhang Liao on the wall ran quickly.
But a single tiger cannot face a pack of wolves.
The attacks from the three sides of the Huns made him feel willing but not strong enough.
He could only roar loudly and try to boost the morale of the men of Yanmen.
He waved the spear in his hand and stabbed it repeatedly.
Harvesting the Huns who tried to climb up the wall one after another.
Zhang Liao gradually had some ideas.
Relying on fast running, he checked for gaps on the wall.
Wherever he went, he would kill the Huns.
Kill the Huns who had just climbed up and confronted the Han people on the spot.
Let the men of Yanmen relieve the pressure slightly.
Yu Fuluo stood under the city and watched, and he became more and more jealous.
The figure running on the wall had killed countless Xiongnu soldiers.
Wherever he passed, no one could resist the attack of the Han people.
He killed them in one blow.
Such a strong force made Yu Fuluo tremble with fear.
When did Yanmen produce such a brave hero?
This was beyond his imagination.
It was not that he had never dealt with the Han people before.
Even ZengHe had also seen the famous White Horse Volunteers.
He had even fought with the Bingzhou Iron Cavalry.
But the bravery of the Han general now was far beyond his imagination.
This made Yu Fuluo once again deeply jealous of the Han people's ability to produce heroes.
The battle continued.
Although Zhang Liao was able to find out the shortcomings and make up for them, his personal ability was ultimately limited.
The Xiongnu soldiers continued to climb up the not-so-high city wall.
Yu Fuluo had a good chance of winning.
Boom!
Suddenly, the earth shook.
Yu Fuluo, who was familiar with cavalry, had a change of look.
"How is it possible?!"
He turned around and saw a cloud of dust rising from the east.
Cavalry!
Han cavalry!
Someone in the formation immediately crawled on the ground, and after careful investigation, he estimated the approximate number of people.
"Khanyu, about 10,000 cavalry!"
Yu Fuluo took a breath of cold air.
"Is the news wrong?"
"When will the Bingzhou cavalry return?"
"Didn't they all go to Luoyang and then be taken away by Dong Zhuo?"
"What is going on?"
"Bingzhou is empty, the news should be true?"
He couldn't figure out what was going on.
However, he didn't have much time left.
Yu Fuluo immediately issued an order, "Quick!"
"Send someone to pass the message to each team attacking the city."
"Return to this Chanyu to assemble immediately."
"Deal with the cavalry coming to help first, then do other things!"
As Yu Fuluo's order spread quickly, the Huns on the wall withdrew like a tide.
Although they were reluctant, they also saw the cavalry team coming to help from a distance on the wall.
Damn it!
The Huns' abuse continued.
They were about to enjoy the pleasure of breaking through the city, but they were interrupted at the critical moment.
This made the Huns who had not vented their anger in their hearts.
They wanted to tear apart all the cavalry reinforcements that disturbed them from savoring the taste of victory.
Zhang Liao stopped panting.
He immediately shouted: "Tanghai reinforcements have arrived!"
"Who has the courage to follow me out of the city to attack the Xiongnu dogs?"
"Let the people of Tanghai see the courage of us Yanmen people!"
Along with his roar, many people responded.
Although some people lost their lives while defending the city.
But no Yanmen man was afraid.
They have lived here for generations, and the Xiongnu are their biggest enemies.
Now that they have the opportunity to kill their enemies, how can they not roar in response?
