The next day.

The Qin Empire.

Northern frontier!

The war between the Qin Empire and the Xiongnu Royal Court has reached a fever pitch.

Both sides suffered constant casualties.

The Great Wall area, as well as Jiuyuan County, Yunzhong County, Yuyang County and other counties are in danger.

At this time, some county towns have been continuously destroyed, and they can only retreat to surrounding counties or county towns.

Meng Tian, ​​Wang Li, and Wang Ben each led their troops to the three counties and rushed to the aid of the major cities.

Smoke and dust billowed, and the Qin cavalry roared to kill.

On the road, the Huns' cavalry were rampaging everywhere, and the slave army was killed one after another.

Meng Tian led an army of 50,000, including 20,000 cavalry and 30,000 infantry to support Jiuyuan County.

Outside Jiuquan City.

The Xiongnu army is still fighting with the Qin soldiers.

Originally, Jiuquan City could no longer be defended and was about to be broken.

However, the remaining county towns behind were defeated, and the county soldiers from the major counties retreated to Jiuquan City, and the knights from the North came to support them.

But it helped Jiuquan City survive!

But now, after many days of fighting, the soldiers have been killed and injured again, and the strength of the troops is once again insufficient.

"kill!"

The Xiongnu general Qiquhuer roared angrily.

Once Jiuquan City in Jiuyuan County is destroyed, then the entire Jiuyuan County will be taken down, which will be a great achievement.

Countless Xiongnu cavalry and slave armies surged towards Jiuquan City like a tidal wave.

Siege vehicles and cloud vehicles push forward, hit the city gates, climb the city walls...

But at this moment!

Meng Tian led the cavalry to rush over first, followed closely by the infantry army.

Boom!

There was a thunderous sound, and the Great Qin cavalry galloped, kicking up countless dust.

Like a black dragon, it quickly meandered across the earth. In just a short moment, it rushed to Jiuquan City and crashed into the attacking Xiongnu army.

Whoosh whoosh!

The Qin cavalry rushed from behind the Xiongnu army, bent their bows and pulled the strings, and shot arrows through the air.

It was extremely sharp and shone coldly under the sunlight.

The Xiongnu army that was attacking the city was hit hard by the Qin cavalry without any precautions.

"No, Da Qin's reinforcements are coming!"

The Xiongnu general Qie Quhuer, who was supervising the troops at the rear and controlling the battlefield, saw Meng Tian leading the army, and his expression suddenly changed dramatically.

Immediately ordered his troops to stop the Qin cavalry.

However, the Great Qin Cavalry was extremely fast and had already launched an attack.

The arrows shot from behind are irresistible!

Puff! Puff!

The arrow pierced the flesh and blood, making a muffled sound and blood splattered everywhere.

Arrows rained from the sky, covering the sky and the earth, covering the Xiongnu army.

At this time, the Xiongnu army was in the middle of a siege battle. It was extremely dense and there was not much separation at all.

In addition, he was attacked from behind, so he didn't have enough time to react.

"ah!"

There were screams among the Xiongnu army.

One by one, the Huns' cavalry were pierced through their bodies and fell down. The slave army was also pierced by long arrows.

The sound of wailing resounds throughout heaven and earth!

The Xiongnu army that had rushed to the bottom of the city and on top of the city tower heard a movement from behind, turned around and looked over, only to see the Great Qin black dragon flag fluttering, and countless Great Qin cavalry charging forward bravely.

The Qin cavalry is like a black dragon, fierce and domineering.

The murderous intention mixed with the powerful momentum coming towards the face made the Huns army shocked!

kill!

It's just this short moment.

Although the Great Qin soldiers in Jiuquan City were surprised and delighted to see their comrades come to support from the Great Qin Empire, their subordinates did not stop at all.

Swinging the halberd, either cutting or stabbing, slashing with long knives and sharp swords, the Huns army who were in a daze before their eyes were wiped out!

The Xiongnu army was extremely angry when they saw this scene and immediately fought back.

The fighting continues on the city tower!

Below the city, Meng Tian led the Qin cavalry to charge and split the Xiongnu army into two halves.

Like a sharp sword, it penetrated the Huns army.

After charging, he turned around, widened the distance, and shot out arrows one after another.

"You actually dare to ruin this general's good deeds!"

Qi Huer was extremely angry, his brows were furrowed, his eyes were red, and his chest was rising and falling with anger.

So far in the battle, there are only 60,000 Xiongnu troops left, and a total of 40,000 people have been killed or injured!

And Da Qin's total number is less than 10,000.

Undoubtedly, this is a huge loss.

Although the circumstances of the siege were excusable, and it was okay to capture the county town, but when he was about to capture it, he was destroyed by Meng Tian's army, which he couldn't tolerate!

Kill kill kill!

And Qu Hu'er led the army to fight with Meng Tian's command of the Qin cavalry.

Both sides used roaming riding and shooting tactics, constantly flying each other's kites, and after reaching the shooting range, they shot and killed them from a distance.

But as time passed, Qi Quhuer discovered that he was wrong.

Even though the Xiongnu cavalry grew up riding sheep, grew up to ride horses, and had excellent riding and shooting skills, they could not do anything to the Qin cavalry!

The cavalry and archery skills of the Qin cavalry were not much different from those of the Huns, if not a little worse at most, but the range of their bows and crossbows was far superior to that of the Huns.

This is the technological gap in civilization and technology...

Because the Xiongnu inevitably fell into a disadvantage.

Boom!

"kill!"

As Jiuquan City opened its gates, the defenders rushed down and the Da Qin infantry not far away came to encircle and suppress them.

Qi Huer's face was gloomy and he could only make a decisive decision.

retreat!

The Xiongnu army began to retreat.

Resisting the attack of Meng Tian's army, he headed north.

at the same time.

Wang Ben and Wang Li also led their armies to Yunzhong County and Yuyang County respectively.

The two men led the Qin army to attack the Xiongnu army, and rescued the besieged counties one by one, temporarily forcing the Xiongnu back.

The reinforcements of the Qin Dynasty arrived at the northern border, and the news of repelling the Xiongnu army was quickly conveyed to the north by the Xiongnu general Qequ Huer.

Informed the king of Zuoguli, Luoting Fengluo, who was interfering with the Great Wall army, and Maodun Shanyu who was in the royal court behind.

"It seems that the Great Qin Empire has reacted and sent reinforcements!"

After Modu Shanyu learned about this, he frowned.

At present, the Great Qin Empire has mobilized a large army, and siege warfare requires several times the enemy's strength.

And siege warfare can be divided into two main methods: siege without attacking, and actual siege, using the lives of the army to accumulate.

It would take too long to besiege but not attack, and with the Great Qin setting up walls and clearing the country, the Xiongnu would not be able to plunder supplies to replenish their consumption.
To be continued...
