Chapter 2329 Find a way to kill more Huns

It has been a few days since Cheng Le was captured. Ling Tong would send scouts every day to investigate the results of King Zuo Guli's battle in Baiqu.

Finally, a scout brought him back the news that King Zuo Guli was defeated in Baiqu and was leading the Hun army to Chengle. Ling Tong felt a sense of joy.

Standing at the head of Chengle City and looking into the direction of Baiqu, Ling Tong said to the deputy general beside him: "We have been waiting for so long, and King Zuo Guli is finally back.

"He was defeated in Baiqu. What if he refused to attack the city when he returned to Chengle?" said the deputy general: "General Wen and Hu Chuquan are right behind. In fact, there is only one way in front of King Zuo Guli. He seems to have no other choice except surrendering to Hu Chuquan."

"There is another option." Ling Tong said: "He can also lead the army to attack Chengle and then defend the city to the death. General Wen and Hu Chuquan's men have no way to attack the city."

"If I choose this, I can only say that he is trying to die." The deputy general curled his lips: "The city guarded by Feixiong Camp, let alone he came here with a defeated soldier, even if he led a group of elite Xiongnu soldiers with high morale, what can he do?"

"Your thoughts are similar to mine." Ling Tong smiled and said to the deputy general: "The soldiers are instructed to prepare early. There are not many opportunities to fight with King Zuo Guli. It will take him soon, and General Wen and Hu Chuquan will also come. Once they arrive, King Zuo Guli does not want to surrender and has no other way to go."

"It's only a few days." The deputy general said with some consolation: "I thought they could siege the city for a month or two, and that would make it a great time to kill them."

"I also hope that he can siege the city for a longer time." Ling Tong also curled his lips: "The prince hopes that we can kill more Huns. In just a few days, even if King Zuo Guli is attacking the city every moment, we can't kill too much..."

The deputy general said nothing, and a trace of loss appeared on his face.

Turning his head to look at him, Ling Tong said, "You don't want this look either. Although there are not many days, we are not completely helpless."

"What can the general do?" Ling Tong said he still had a solution, and the deputy general asked.

"We have to do only two things." Ling Tong said: "One is to defend Chengle, and the other is to kill more Xiongnu people. General Wen and Hu Chuquan will not be here long before they arrive. When they arrive, we can open the city gate and let King Zuo Guli enter the city."

"Let King Zuo Guli enter the city?" The deputy general was stunned: "The general means..."

"Don't I understand what I mean?" Ling Tong said, "Open the city gate and let them in. You and I will lead the soldiers to intercept them near the city gate. With the strength of the Feixiong Camp and the narrow city gate, we can surround the Huns. As long as King Zuo Guli dares to order to enter the city, we can make their bodies accumulate like mountains. Although it is still impossible to destroy all the Huns brought by King Zuo Guli, at least they can be killed to the death."

"The general is more of ambitions." The deputy general praised: "Open the city gate, once the Huns attack the city, we can block them in the city gate hole. Their formation cannot be expanded, and no matter how many people there are, it is useless. In this way, they can really make their bodies accumulate around the city gate."

"Although this is a good way to kill the enemy, it cannot be used now." Ling Tong said: "We have to wait until General Wen and Hu Chuquan come outside the city before we can do that. The Huns are gambled all the time. When General Wen and Hu Chuquan are in a dilemma in the city, they can also rush up from behind. With the Huns brought by King Zuo Guli, they cannot withstand our attacks inside and outside."

"I swear to follow the general to the death." The deputy general bowed his fists and expressed his opinion to Ling Tong.

While the two were talking, a guard behind pointed to Baiqu: "General, there is a group of people coming over there, and it looks like there are quite a few people."

Before the guard pointed to the other side, Ling Tong had already seen the army appearing at the end of the horizon.

A black line first appeared at the end of the horizon, and as the troops got closer, the black line became wider and wider.

The Huns were so powerful that they could not tell how many people were looking at the top of the city.

Ling Tong said: "General Wen and Hu Chuquan did not win a great victory in Baiqu's opinion. There are so many people brought by King Zuo Guli to come back."

"It seems that there are not tens of thousands of people." When the deputy general spoke, his tone was not panic, but the excitement that was difficult to hide.

They were really worried that King Zuo Guli had suffered too many casualties in Baiqu.

If there were too many Huns who lost, King Zuo Guli would definitely not have much confidence in the future battle.

The lack of confidence will likely prompt him to give up siege.

Ling Tong was waiting for the Huns to attack the city. The Emperor and the Prince of the Great Wei hoped to kill as many Huns as possible. Only by destroying the living Huns can they be easier to control and integrate them in the future.

The Huns had too many warriors, and sooner or later they would be dissatisfied with the Great Wei.

Even if Hu Chuquan regained the power of the Huns, sooner or later they felt that the Great Wei was exhausted and the Huns were already strong enough, they would still provoke the Great Wei again.

Cao Shu and Cao Heng and his son had long seen the hidden dangers, so when they attacked the Huns this time, they hoped that the soldiers could kill more Xiong men.

However, Cao Shuo and Cao Heng, the women of the Huns, had never considered killing them.

After being assigned to the Central Plains, women of childbearing age were assigned to the Central Plains, and the children they gave birth to were already considered to be from the Central Plains.

With the fusion of one or two generations, the Huns will be completely erased from the world.

To erase the Huns, Cao Shu's choice was much softer than when he dealt with the Jie people.

The Jie people killed countless people and never treated the Central Plains as humans. Although the Huns plundered a lot of people from the Central Plains, the Central Plains people who were captured were just driven by enslavement.

As for what will happen to women who are captured, it is not necessary to say clearly, and the world also understands clearly.

In dealing with the Jie people and the Xiongnu, Cao Shu chose the strategy to do what he wanted to do to the other person.

How the Jie people treat the people of the Central Plains, how the soldiers of the Great Wei will treat them. The only difference is that the soldiers of the Great Wei will not treat them as food after slaughtering the Jie people. After all, the Great Wei does not lack food, and the soldiers cannot be so hungry that they need to use human flesh to fill their stomachs.

When dealing with the Huns, the soldiers of the Great Wei Dynasty had to do the plunder and do what the Huns had done back then to them, so that the Huns could understand that they would expect to make a living by plundering, and sooner or later, they would wait for the thunderous revenge of the people who had been plundered.

Moreover, the revenge of the Great Wei Dynasty was not something that the Huns could easily bear.

After all, the soldiers of the Great Wei Dynasty wanted to completely erase the Huns from this world.

Only by integrating the Huns and allowing them to become part of the Central Plains people can the Great Wei usher in long-term stability.

The Huns who were rushing towards Chengle were getting closer and closer, and looked over the city walls, and they were quite imposing.

"Just looking at their momentum, I really can't tell that the army was defeated in Baiqu." Looking at the Huns getting closer and closer, Ling Tong said: "King Zuo Guli is also a character. He was defeated in Baiqu and led the Huns back, but he still maintained some morale."

"The general thinks they still have morale?" asked the deputy general.

"Do you think they have no morale?" Ling Tong asked back.

"I think they should have lost some morale." The deputy general said: "If I led the troops and were not the elite troops like Feixiong Camp, after experiencing the Battle of Baiqu, I would probably have no intention of fighting. I think the Huns did not have morale, but they did not have the pursuit soldiers behind them and did not take such a few people as us seriously, so they could keep the line in order. Once the two sides fought, they knew that we were not so easy to deal with, and the so-called morale of the Huns would probably collapse completely."

"What you said is actually not much different from what I thought, but ordinary Huns cannot see through these." Ling Tong replied: "King Zuo Guli must have painted them a cake to make them think there is still hope, so that they can maintain a neat formation and rush to make fun. What we have to do is to destroy their morale, but it cannot be completely destroyed, leaving them a little hope. If there is no hope completely, when General Wen and Hu Chuquan arrive, how dare they rush into the city even if we open the city gate."

"It is easy to destroy the enemy's fighting spirit, but it is not difficult to destroy the enemy." The deputy general sighed: "It is a big challenge for us to make them lose consecutive battles and lose them in a row, but not completely destroy their fighting spirit."

"The soldiers you and I are leading are not ordinary soldiers, but the elite Feixiong Camp among the elite Wei forces." Ling Tong said: "If even Feixiong Camp cannot do that, who else can do it in the Wei Dynasty?"

"What the general said is." The deputy general responded with his fists.

Of course, King Zuo Guli could not know what Ling Tong and the deputy general discussed at the city wall.

After the battle of Baiqu, he still has a lot of people left under his command.

Before returning to Chengle, he also sent scouts to inquire that there were only 5,000 Wei troops who captured the city, but they were the elite Feixiong Camp of the Wei army.

He also knew that Feixiong Camp was powerful, but King Zuo Guli did not believe that there was a team of people who could defend the city even if the number was less than one-tenth of his own, so that they could not break the city.

"King, Cheng Le is ahead." The deputy general who followed King Zuo Guli pointed forward and asked, "When you get outside the city, do you want to attack the city immediately?"

"The Wei army is behind us." King Zuo Guli said: "There is not much time left for us. If we cannot regain Chengle in three or four days, once the Wei army behind us catches up, we will never have any way out."

"I beg the king to allow me to lead the warriors to attack the city." The leader who spoke immediately asked for the battle. I am willing to rush ahead of the warriors and make contributions to the king."

The leader who spoke was also one of the most powerful warriors in the tribe. King Zuo Guli nodded: "Since you have the intention to lead the warriors to attack the city, I will allow you to go. It's just that the enemy is strong, so you have to be extremely careful when siegeing the city."

"Don't worry, no matter how strong the enemy is, it cannot withstand our large number of troops." The leader of the Huns replied: "I will lead my troops to attack now."

King Zuo Guli nodded, and the leader of the Hun immediately called the tribal warriors to go to the gate of Chengle City first.

When he arrived outside the city gate, he ordered a Hun: "Go and call the war and tell the Wei army guarding the city that they have no other choice but to surrender. If they refuse to surrender, they will definitely be a living person and will not leave them behind when the city is broken."

The Xiongnu who received the order urged their mounts to come outside the city gate.

He raised his face and shouted to the city wall: "Listen to the Wei army on the city, I am a member of the Zuoguli royal family of the Great Huns. You have seized Chengle before and killed our tribe. As long as you are willing to surrender, the king will not blame you. If you refuse to surrender, once the Great Huns warriors enter the city, they will definitely be free from the dog."

The Huns were calling for war outside the city. Ling Tong on the top of the city smiled and said to the deputy general: "We were thinking about how to kill more Huns. Before we started to attack, they came to call for war instead. It seems that King Zuo Guli still suffered too little in the Feixiong Camp. After this siege, I wonder if they will gain some memory."

"What the general said is that this King Zuo Guli is really arrogant." The deputy general smiled: "We are still thinking about how to kill more of his troops. He actually dares to come and call for war. I don't know if it is really stupid or fake."

"I don't think he is stupid," Ling Tong said: "He is just a little too arrogant."

He then asked the deputy general: "How is your riding shooting?"

"Where is no such thing as riding and shooting in Feixiong Camp?" The deputy general replied with a smile: "Although my riding and shooting cannot be considered superb, at least I can do it."

"Then I'll give you a chance to show off." Ling Tong pointed to the Huns who were calling for war outside the city: "Shoot that Hun, let me see if your riding and shooting is exquisite or ordinary."

The deputy general asked for a longbow from the soldiers beside him and asked Ling Tong: "Where is the general who wants me to shoot him?"

"Minimum." Ling Tong said, "I don't like this person very much, and I don't plan to ask him to go back alive. The target between the eyebrows is not big. If you can shoot with one arrow, it would be OK to ride and shoot."

"I understand!" The deputy general opened his long bow and aimed at the Huns who were still calling for war outside the city.

The bowstring trembled, and an arrow flew towards the Huns.

He was calling for war outside the city, and the Huns might not have expected someone to shoot arrows at him.

When the arrow flew down, he subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but before he could make any moves, his eyebrows were shot through with an arrow.

The arrow shot by the deputy general hit the Huns' eyebrows, and the Huns fell off the horse's back.

The leader who led the Huns to the outside of the city, when he saw the people he sent were shot off his horse, he was very angry and shouted to the Huns lined up behind him: "Wei army is willing to die, the warriors rushed forward to me and defeated the city without leaving any other animals!"

The Huns shouted and launched an attack, but Ling Tong on the top of the city grinned at the deputy general: "When it comes to riding and shooting, your ability is still acceptable."
