    Keba Wuyan roared repeatedly, causing the golden sword warrior to rush forward and take over the leading position of the Qiang and Hu cavalry.  However, Xu Huang would never give him the opportunity to switch arms.  He ordered again coldly.

    "Three seconds to change arrows. Shoot randomly!"

    Random shooting means that you don¡¯t need to aim accurately, what you want is a quick word.  The 7,500 Han troops understood what Xu Huang meant, and immediately fired arrows quickly, loaded the arrows, and fired again.  The overwhelming arrows were like a continuous spring rain, covering a small area outside the city. The rain of arrows came intensively, and the Qiang and Hu people continued to fall. Although some of the arrows missed, they could still scare the horses. The Qiang and Hu formations  There were constantly running wild horses, bumping around.  For a moment, the Qiang and Hu troops were in chaos. Keba Wuyan kept shouting and commanded the troops in the rear to retreat first, leaving some distance for the cavalry in front to sort out.

    The Qiang and Hu troops in the rear retreated to a distance of one mile. The Qiang and Hu cavalry slowly retreated back while bearing the rain of arrows.

    "It's a pity. If our army is equal in strength to the Qiang and Hu people, and we send a large force to attack at this time, we will definitely win."

    Wenhan watched from the side and couldn't help but sigh.  Fighters are fleeting and ever-changing.  Therefore, there is no need to be careless on the battlefield. Keba Wuyan is eager to attack the city and attacks before he has prepared his formation. If he encounters a talented general like Xu Huang, he will die.

    "Stop! Prepare rocks and boiling water!"

    Xu Huang ignored Wenhan's words. He focused all his energy on the battlefield. With an order, the 7,500 Han troops stopped shooting arrows and moved in one after another to bring in big rocks and cauldrons with boiling water.

    Xu Huang stared at the Qiang and Hu troops. After the Qiang and Hu people were sorted out, the four thousand golden sword warriors and six thousand sword and axemen came to attack this time. The cavalry pressed behind and were ready to attack the city gate at any time.

    "Kill!!!"

    Several Qiang generals shouted, leading the four thousand gold-sword warriors and six thousand sword-axemen to charge in fiercely. Among them were two ladders, which were captured when Linhe was captured half a month ago.

    Six thousand swordsmen and axemen guarded two ladders, trying to get to the edge of the city, and then use the ladders to climb to the city.  At this time Xu Huang's voice sounded again.

    "Big rocks, roll down!"

    Following Xu Huang's order, many huge rocks quickly fell from under the heads of the six thousand axemen. Several axemen who had no time to dodge were smashed into pieces by the boulders, and some were hit on their body parts, causing pain.  Have to scream loudly.  Many large rocks rolled to the side of the ladder, blocking its wheels and preventing the two ladders from moving.

    "Don't panic! Hold on! Clear the stone first. Once the ladder reaches the city gate, Erma can go up and kill him!"

    The leading Qiang generals were also experienced and immediately ordered the Qiang Hu knife and axemen to clear the stones from the bottom of the ladder.  At this time, another round of stones rolled down from the city gate. Under the newly cleaned ladder, another stone came to block it, and at the same time, many Qiang Hu sword and axe-hands were killed.

    "Golden Sword Warriors, come on!"

    At this time, the golden sword warriors who had been behind the six thousand axemen rushed out. They were all agile and avoided the big rocks. They ran to the city gate and threw out golden ropes with tied heads.  A large cylindrical iron block was holding the pillars of the city one after another, and then they followed the ropes to climb the city gate.

    "General, this is the specialty of the Qiang and Hu Golden Sword Warriors. In the past, many of our Han cities were attacked by these Golden Sword Warriors using this strange thing to climb onto the city gates, resulting in the city being breached."

    At Gao Shunjun's side, a veteran saw many golden sword warriors climbing up the golden rope, and he couldn't help but nervously reminded Xu Huang.

    "Don't panic. This is just a trick. Prepare boiling water. After three rounds of pouring, cut off these golden ropes immediately!"

    Xu Huang gave the order calmly.  Seeing that the general was calm and unfazed, the Han soldiers calmed down and followed Xu Huang's instructions, first pouring out the boiling water in the cauldron.  The boiling water has been scalding for a long time. The golden sword warrior who was climbing the city gate was suddenly splashed by the boiling water. White gas suddenly appeared all over his body. The squeaking sound made the Qiang and Hu people below the city tremble with fear. Many golden swordsmen were scalded.  The sword warrior couldn't help but fall down, shattering his bones.

    The Qiang and Hu people at the bottom of the city were also in a commotion. Some were roaring from the remaining boiling water, or were hit by some falling golden sword warriors.  Among the Qiang generals, two had their faces scalded by the boiling water. Their faces were horribly red. They rolled on the ground and screamed. It seemed that they had lost the ability to fight.  Only two Qiang left will barely hold on.

    Then, two more rounds of boiling water were poured on him.  All four thousand golden sword warriors fell down, and more than half were killed or injured.  At this time, the Han army in the city immediately took the opportunity to cut off the golden rope tied to the stone pillar of the city gate.  After cutting, he immediately returned to his original position and waited for Xu Huang's order.

    "The men belonging to Black Wind Cavalry and those under my command immediately draw their bows and fire arrows! This Qiang Hu's iron horse is about to attack! In addition, General Gao Shun's subordinates, prepare big rocks, and be careful not to let the swordsman and axe-hand guard the ladder to get close! This  Both parties should pay attention,The most violent attack from the barbarians is coming.  "

    Xu Huang had a stern face and ordered solemnly.

    "yes!"

    Xu Huang¡¯s outstanding command just now has won the respect of everyone present.  Each subordinate takes his or her own orders and completes the orders arranged by Xu Huang.  Sure enough, after a while, the Qiang and Hu cavalry suddenly rushed over.  Go straight to the Dacheng Gate in the middle.  On the other side, after clearing the boulders, the Qiang Hu knife and axemen pushed the ladder forward.

    Wen Hanjun¡¯s archery castrated the low-level Qiang and Hu cavalry, but the Qiang and Hu cavalry were determined to storm the city gate this time. They were not afraid of casualties and continued to advance despite the rain of arrows.  On the other side, Gao Shun's army kept throwing boulders, and the Qiang and Hu cavalrymen saw that the Qiang and Hu cavalry were attacked by most of the defenders, and knew that there would not be many Han troops on their side, so they seized the opportunity.  , while clearing the boulders and speeding up the ladder.

    "General Xu, these Qiang and Hu cavalry are so numerous that we can't kill them all at once. This troop is getting closer and closer!"

    "General Xu, this ladder is getting closer and closer. There are too many Qiang and Hu swordsmen and axemen below, and the golden sword warriors have also joined. Our stone offensive cannot stop their progress!"

    Bad news came from both defenders at the same time.  Xu Huang remained calm, without any trace of panic, and shouted in a deep voice.

    "Don't panic! Just keep attacking! The most important thing is to stabilize your position!"

    Xu Huang knew that at this time, as the commanding general, he must not panic at all, otherwise the entire garrison would be discouraged.  When the time comes, with such a fierce Qiang and Hu people's attack that is not afraid of death, Linhe City will definitely be destroyed.

    The offensive and defensive sides were in a stalemate for a while.  Although the Qiang and Hu troops continued to advance, the number of deaths was shocking.  Keba Wuyan saw his army of tribesmen falling down continuously, either shot to death by arrows, stoned to death, or fainted by boiling water.  My heart is bleeding continuously.

    "What kind of person is commanding this Linhe City? He is calm and orderly in the face of danger. The strength of the Bilma Qiang and Hu army is almost four or five times smaller. But he always has the upper hand. Could it be Na Wen Bufan again! If so, it is really terrifying.  , this person is not only good at attacking the enemy, but also good at defending the city against the enemy! Could it be that he is the champion Hou Shi, as the rumors say?"

    Keba Wuyan stared at Linhe City with wide eyes, wanting to see who was commanding the Han army to resist his Qiang and Hu army.  But it was too far away, and Ke Ba Wuyan could only see the figure of a young man. He also thought that Wen Han was rumored to be similar in age to the young man, so he thought it was Wen Han who was commanding.

    "How many meters away are the Erma Qiang and Hu cavalry from the Linhe city gate?"

    "Report back to the clan leader. There are still about 300 meters left, but the Han army has too many bows and arrows. Erma's Qiang Hu cavalry also took advantage of the gap between them to change arrows and was able to run up to speed. It seems that there is still 300 meters left.  A lot of time.¡±

    "Yes. The Axeman and the Golden Sword Warrior were guarding two heavy ladders, but they were blocked by the Han general's falling rocks. The journey was like a turtle crawling, and the chance of reaching the city gate was slim. In the end, we had to rely on you.  Ma's Qiang and Hu cavalry broke through the city gate near the river."

    Keba Wuyan looked at him with cold eyes. The Han general at the city gate whom he thought was Wen Han was full of killing intent. He was already thinking about how to torture this man after the city was defeated.

    Seeing that the Qiang and Hu cavalry were getting closer and closer, Xu Huang frowned deeply and gave another order.

    "General Gao, after throwing this round of stones, immediately draw your bow and load your arrows!"

    Gao Shunjun obeyed the order and after throwing stones for a round, he immediately changed his bow and arrow and shouted in unison that he was ready.

    "The whole army obeys the order, with Black Wind Cavalry's subordinate at the head, my subordinates and General Gao's subordinates at the end, rotating from head to tail, and firing continuously!"

    Countless arrows flew out again. After the 2,800 Black Wind Cavalry finished shooting, the men and horses under Xu Huang's command and Gao Shun's command immediately started shooting again, constantly taking turns, and the arrow rain continued without interruption.  The Qiang and Hu cavalry suddenly fell one after another, with blood and flesh flying everywhere. People and horses were neighing and screaming together, and there was blood everywhere.

    On the other side, without the stones falling, the Qiang Hu sword axemen and the golden sword warriors quickly accelerated the speed of the ladder and rushed towards the city wall.

    Two snapping sounds.

    The two ladders were leaning against the city wall. The Qiang Hu knife axe-hands and the golden sword warriors cheered happily, climbed up the two ladders one after another, and rushed towards Linhe City.

    "General Xu, these Qiang Hu sword axemen and golden sword warriors are coming through the ladder to kill!"

    "I know! The whole army obeyed the order, sometimes blocking its incoming attack and delaying time! In addition, they killed the Qiang and Hu cavalry under the city and made them retreat! That is the main force of the Qiang and Hu people, and they must not be allowed to approach the city gate.  !¡±

    Xu Huang was sweating profusely, trying his best to calm down and ordered.  Harassed by the Han army's arrows, the progress of the Qiang Hu sword and axemen and the golden sword warriors suddenly slowed down.  And the Qianghu cavalryAfter a while, I regained my breath and gradually moved forward. I was about to reach the city gate.

    Xu Huang¡¯s entire face was tense as he paid close attention to the battlefield.  Wherever there is a great danger, immediate remedial action will be taken, and the heart will beat fast.  Next to him, Wen Han was drawing his bow and shooting arrows while paying attention to Xu Huang. He knew that Xu Huang's command had no flaws and was very good.

    If it were anyone else, they would have been unable to defend themselves against this fierce attack.  The Qiang and Hu were really outnumbered, and many attacks came together. Wen Han and Gao Shun's troops were far smaller than the Qiang and Hu troops, and they were overwhelmed at the moment.

    Boom boom boom.

    Suddenly, Linhe City shook violently, and Xu Huang's expression changed drastically.

    Some of the Qiang and Hu cavalry have arrived at Linhe City Gate!
