Daqin: Zulong's Traveling Frog

Chapter 243 Head Manchester City

"This"

When Xu Li heard that he was going to take the initiative to harass Mao Dun, he was terrified.

This is not what he thinks in his heart, isn't he afraid that King Zuo Xian will suddenly change his mind?

Really not afraid, once Zuo Xianwang's territory is empty, if Xuli betrays, he will give up all the land.

There was an indifferent smile on Xu Li's face. He originally wanted to take the opportunity to burn the Qin army's granary, but he didn't expect the Qin army to let him be the vanguard, and he was still put together by the king of Qin.

This made Xu Li very anxious, if he really confronted Modun, he would be asking for his own death.

When Xuli questioned Qin Wangzheng, Qin Wangzheng said that since it was an alliance, Xuli would fulfill Daqin's promise.

Xu Li didn't dare to tear his face at this time, Li Xin had already led the army to garrison, and he could completely wipe out the remaining [-] elite soldiers of King Zuo Xian.

Xu Li is now riding a tiger, and resistance is death, so he can only silently accept Qin Jun's request and start a war with Maodun.

But as for the real fight and the fake fight, this is what Xu Li decides!
Xu Li can only use his tricks, so we will join hands with Maodun to deliver false information to Daqin.

During the autumn harvest, there is plenty of food and grass. Although some places are affected by drought and flood disasters, Qinchuan, eight hundred miles away in Guanzhong, relies on Dujiangyan and Zhengguo Canal, and its income is reasonable. The harvest in autumn alone is enough for 15 soldiers on the front line. It's been March.

Qin Wangzheng looked at the success report of Zhisu Neishi, with a smile on his face, and slowly said: "Although there are only three months of food and grass, these are enough. In two months, the Xiongnu can be wiped out, and the army will spend the winter." It can be withdrawn afterwards."

This time, the food transportation was still in accordance with Meng Tian's instructions. The water route was carried out, and the land was carried by Zhang Han. I hope he could transport the grain safely. If he could make a crime, the water route was taken by Han Xin. He could rely on the water route to transport food when his back was against the wall.

The army also brought ten days' worth of food and galloped across the border. This time it was fresh buns, which attracted many soldiers to salivate. After taking a bite, the fresh and tender meat juice flowed out, which made many soldiers have a full meal and be able to travel better. Battle on the front lines.

The vanguard of the Daijun army led by Li Xin was led by Xuli, and marched westward to the northern border, while Meng Tian led the Jiuyuan County to the east, and Li You and Qiang Yan made an appointment to cross the Great Wall and approach the northern border from the Hetao grassland.

This time, the army did not gather to attack the court of the Huns, but proceeded step by step, focusing on destroying the living forces of the Huns. The resistance they received along the way was not much. It seems that Modu still concentrated the main force to fight against the Qin army.

The Qin army still adopts the policy of recruiting and surrendering. Once the Xiongnu soldiers put down their weapons and no longer confront the Qin army, the Qin army will not target them and their families. They only need to kill some cattle and sheep to satisfy the Qin army's hunger. .

Sure enough, after this set of decrees, the main force led by Meng Tian walked on the ground like a flat ground in the Huns, and they hardly encountered any fierce resistance. With the help of the Xiongnu people, the Qin army could eat cattle and sheep to satisfy their hunger.

Qiang Lu and Li You pawns still moved forward cautiously, and met many shepherds along the way.

But this time their number has decreased significantly, which makes Qiang Yan a little uneasy. If the number of herdsmen decreases, doesn't it mean that the shepherds have been forced into the army? Then this time we may not only be facing the only [-] Huns left in the royal court The soldiers are gone.

Qiang Lu ordered the infantry to advance carefully, no one could take the initiative to attack without a military order, but even so, the army still did not suffer any violent attack, could it be that Mao Dun abandoned the royal court again?

However, this time they may not be able to attack food, grass and supplies. This time, the prisoner army led by Zhang Han is wearing the most advanced bows, crossbows, halberds and shields, and has undergone strict training. This army is basically the same as the regular army. I'm afraid it will be a bit of a pain if you come to attack.

Han Xin's waterway transportation of grain was also quite smooth, and it seemed that there was no obstacle. Maybe the Huns soldiers hadn't found it yet, and even if they found the Huns soldiers, there was nothing they could do.

Although Han Xin's army is a prisoner army, the ship is a large ship. The Huns are cavalry and are not good at water warfare. They can only be beaten when facing a large ship.

Han Xin showed a sinister smile on his face and said coldly: "If Mao Dun comes to invade, just show him his colors and let Mao Dun see the power of the Great Qin Navy."

Li You's army was attacked by an infantry force of about a thousand people.

They lay in ambush deep in the woods, ready to attack the vanguard, but their bows and crossbows were too soft, except for the legs of a few soldiers, they were all blocked by the armor. Seeing that the plan failed, they charged into battle and fought with the Qin army.

The Qin army quickly formed a formation to fight against the Xiongnu soldiers. How could the Xiongnu soldiers be the opponents of the elite Qin army?

Li You frowned tightly. This army should be herdsmen gathered nearby. They used to be fugitives from the Baiyang tribe and fled here to settle down. Ambush, ready to teach Qin Jun a lesson.

Unexpectedly, he was taught a lesson by the Qin army. Li You learned that they were the remnants of Aries, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

The Aries are the most important tribe of the Xiongnu. They must know the way to the royal court. Li You didn't kill them, but let them lead the way and lead Li You to the Huns' royal court.

This time their goal is to head to Manchester City, which is the seat of the King's Court of the Huns.

"Hanshu Geographical Records" records, Wuyuan County under the record: "Guanglu City is obtained from Shimen Barrier in the north, Zhijiu City is obtained in the northwest, and Touman City is obtained in the northwest."

There are Yinshan Mountains here as a towering barrier, which is strong enough to resist the invasion of foreign countries.

Manchester City's tall and straight terrain is a place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Under the guidance of the Baiyang Tribe, the frontier army led by Li You actually reached Yinshan Mountain first.

Li You ordered his infantry to go up the mountain to investigate the news. There was no ambush on the mountain. Li You finally breathed a sigh of relief and rumbled his army onto Yinshan Mountain to occupy the favorable terrain first.

Seeing the sound of banners flying on Yinshan Mountain, Qiang Lu was taken aback and questioned, "Be careful, the main force of the Xiongnu is lying in ambush on the mountain."

But then I thought about it, if the Huns were in ambush, why did they show their military flags?

Under the scouts' investigation, Qiang Li was relieved when he learned that the troops on the mountain were Qin soldiers. He ordered the army to continue to move forward and set foot on Yinshan Mountain. The general's flag was erected high and inserted at the northern foot of Yinshan Mountain.

Meng Tian's main force came one after another. Meng Tian fought steadily, and he had to guard against the Huns' spies whenever he came out of the battle, so he came one step too late.

In the end, Xuli's vanguard also arrived at Yinshan Mountain, and Li You dared to come one after another.

They set up camp in Yinshan Mountain, and when they were about to attack the Huns royal court northward, a scout suddenly came to report: "General, the Huns royal court is empty again."
