Chapter 282: Who is the King of Kucha? !
"Twenty breaths later, bring people to follow!"
After saying this, Liu Wu whipped the horse hard, and the armored horse suddenly accelerated.
Herod! ~
Rush forward quickly!
One man and one horse, attacking towards the east gate of Yancheng!
At this time, a man wearing a crown and gorgeous robes climbed up to the top of the east city wall of Yancheng. Wherever he passed, many Kucha soldiers bowed their heads to show respect.
"My king!" The general guarding the east gate also came over and saluted.
The King of Kucha looked solemn. He looked at the soldiers around him and said loudly, "The reinforcements from Dayuan have been blocked."
"Han soldiers have arrived at our royal city."
"All the northern countries have been destroyed. The invasion of the Han people is as fierce as a raging fire."
"Our warriors are not as brave as their Han soldiers."
"Our weapons are not as sharp as theirs."
"But! General! Soldiers! This is our country, we are defending our own royal city!"
"We have more than 20,000 soldiers in the city. As long as we unite as one, even an army of 100,000 may not be able to break through our royal city!"
"As long as we can hold on, persistence is the greatest strength. They came from far away and they can't hold on for long."
"If they are lucky, they will go back in disgrace."
"If they are unlucky and are blocked by Dayuan's second wave of reinforcements or Wusun's first wave of reinforcements, then these poor Han people will be buried in the desert and will never be able to return to their homeland in the Central Plains!"
The King of Kucha almost shouted the last few words, which was very contagious and made the soldiers around him excited.
It's like being given a shot of chicken blood.
"My king, look, there are Han soldiers coming!"
"How many?"
"There is only one person."
"one person?"
"Yes!"
Looking at the figure that was already rushing towards him, the King of Qiuci could not help but wipe his mustache, and then continued his speech to the soldiers around him: "The Han people are still as arrogant as ever. They are more arrogant than the Xiongnu, more arrogant than the Wusun, and more arrogant than the Kushans!"
"How powerful the Xiongnu were in the past, how powerful the Kushans are now, isn't the Wusun also powerful?"
"The cavalry of Wusun, Kushan, and Xiongnu are almost endless. They are so close to us. The cavalry came and went with a roar, just asking for some benefits."
"I heard that the Han people's homeland in the Central Plains is thousands of miles away from us."
"I also heard that the Han people have very few cavalry, and they are all infantry."
"The infantry came to us from thousands of miles away on two legs, and then announced that we belonged to their great men. How arrogant and ridiculous is this?"
"Soldiers! Let us crush the Han people's arrogance, just like the dazzling thunder in the desert, crushing the darkness!"
"We, the Kucha people, are not to be trifled with. Drive them back to our homeland in the Central Plains!"
The Kucha soldiers cheered one after another: "We Kucha people are not to be trifled with!"
"Send them back to their hometown in the Central Plains!"
"We, the people of Kucha, are not to be trifled with!"
"Send them back to their hometown in the Central Plains!"
……
Their voices were so loud that Gan Ning could hear them even from this side. At this time, twenty breaths were over.
Gan Ning drew the long sword from his waist and spurred his horse forward: "Charge!"
The next moment, the five thousand Liangzhou cavalry behind him rolled forward, their speed getting faster and faster, the noise getting louder and louder, and dust filled the sky!
……
On top of the city,
General Dongmen reported: "My king! That Han cavalry has entered our attack range!"
"Farther away, the Han cavalry also moved. There were about three to four thousand cavalrymen, rushing towards us!"
"That Han cavalryman really doesn't know how to live or die. The same goes for the cavalrymen further away. The cavalry attacking the city is really hilarious."
"I heard that the ancestors of the Han people wrote military books. It's a pity that among so many Han people, not a single one read them. They ignored the wisdom of their ancestors and rode their horses straight towards our royal city. How ridiculous it is."
"General, give the order."
"Terminate them."
"Respect my king's order." The general turned around and looked at the lonely figure under the city. He thought for a moment and then said, "He is alone. A rain of arrows would require at least hundreds of arrows. It is really a waste."
The King of Kucha nodded and said, "Yes, General. Let's wait until more Han cavalry arrive before we shoot."
"My king is wise." The general was very touched by the words of the King of Kucha: "Just like what my king said before, we must persist, not kill. Persistence is victory!"
The King of Kucha nodded in appreciation: "Yes, General, persistence leads to victory!"
However, the next moment, King Qiuci suddenly felt a vibration under his feet...
There was a sound of panic from below...
"Your Majesty!!"
"That man, that Hanqi, took the magical stick given by the gods and opened the city gate we were defending!"
"That Hanqi, he rushed in, waving that magic stick, no one can stop him!"
"What magic wand?!" King Kucha couldn't believe it at all.
The soldier said in panic, "It looks like a big gun, but with crescents on both sides. Those two crescents are as bright as the Crescent Moon Lake in Dunhuang in the East, as the merchants said!"
"That makes sense. They came from the Central Plains and had to pass through Dunhuang. Perhaps it was there that they received the blessing of the Crescent Moon Lake God." The King of Kucha was confused at this time: "God, since you have protected us in Kucha, why do you bless these Han people?"
"Your Majesty, I will lead the troops to surround him, otherwise the Han cavalry behind will rush into the city!" The general did not care about the reaction of the King of Kucha and hurriedly led his men down.
At this moment,
Liu Wu was already killing like crazy, and no one dared to fight him. Wherever he went, people retreated, just like driving away chickens and ducks.
at last,
The King of Kucha only saw his general, who was like the guardian god of Yancheng, was smashed on the head by the magic stick as soon as he led a small team of elite soldiers to approach the Han Chinese, raising a cloud of blood mist.
The King of Kucha couldn't bear it and closed his eyes.
then,
A large number of Han cavalry have come in. They came in from the east gate that was opened by the magic wand, and rushed into the city like a flood!
"King of Chu!" Gan Ning waved the long sword and finally rushed in front of Liu Wu.
The Kucha soldiers at the east gate had already been frightened by Liu Wu. After the brutal Xiliang soldiers rushed into the city, they had completely lost the desire to fight and retreated like a tide.
"Who is the King of Kucha?!" Gan Ning shouted.
With a loud shout, the King of Kucha on the top of the city almost fainted and turned around to run. However, an old soldier from the former Western Regions Chief's Office next to Gan Ning pointed him out directly: "General Gan Ning, that's him!"
