Chapter 254 Tianxuan: Finally here (begging for rewards and monthly tickets!)

Xianyang, the eldest prince’s residence.

New Year's Eve has passed, and the huge machine of the Great Qin Empire has started to operate again after a few days of simple rest. Fusu, as the eldest son of the empire who was allowed by his brother Zheng to attend court, naturally had many government affairs that needed him to handle. On this day, Fusu had just finished handling his busy official duties and returned to his mansion, when a confidant came to his ear and told him a piece of news.

study.

"I greet the eldest master."

A plain-looking man, who would be lost forever if thrown into a crowd, knelt on one knee at Fusu's feet.

"Are you the messenger sent by Lord Wushuang?" Fusu looked down at the man and asked solemnly.

"Young Master, this is a letter that Wushuang Jun asked me to send to you. Please take a look." The messenger groped in his bosom, took out the sealed letter, and handed it over respectfully. Without Fusu's instructions, a man stepped forward spontaneously, took the letter, opened it, and placed the letter downward, in order to ensure that there were no hidden weapons or poisons in the letter.

After the inspection was completed, the man handed the letter to Fusu without even daring to look at it.

Although Tianxuan had been away from the center for more than two years, and now he was the first emperor for three years, Fusu still regarded him as his confidant. With the exquisite palace lanterns lit in the study, Fusu kept his eyes on the letter written by Tianxuan himself, and read all the contents at a glance.

"Come here, prepare the carriage and horses. I want to go to the palace to pay my respects to my father."

After reading the letter written by Tianxuan, Fusu put the letter back into the envelope. His expression was stern, and he gave instructions in an unquestionable tone.

"Here."

Although the servants around Fusu were very curious about what was written in the letter sent by the Wushuang Lord that made the eldest son, who had just left the palace, enter the palace overnight. However, some things were better not to be known. As soon as Fusu's order came out, someone immediately went to prepare.

………………

Unparalleled city.

In the spring of March, the grass grows and orioles fly.

The soil of the cultivated fields around Wushuang City has been turned up, and some people who have settled in the city have spread seeds in the fields. In and outside Wushuang City, caravans are constantly flowing, and most of the goods brought from the Central Plains and the Western Regions are traded in the city.

Everything is so harmonious and orderly.

On the top of Wushuang City, after the Chinese New Year, Tianxuan, who was already 18 years old, stood on the city gate tower with his hands behind his back. His clear eyes reflected the beautiful mountains and rivers outside the city, as if he wanted to step on these mountains and rivers under his feet. Although he did not make any movements, his elegant demeanor was fully revealed.

"I wonder how long this tranquility will last?" Looking at the endless mountains and rivers, Tianxuan suddenly spoke.

"Sir, will the wolf tribe really come?" Behind Tianxuan, followed closely the Night Owl's top expert: Mo Ya. Mo Ya heard what Tianxuan said, thinking of the period of time when Tianxuan had never concealed his plan, and couldn't help asking.

Tianxuan rolled his eyes at him and said, "I definitely will."

"By the way, how are Xiao He, Liu Ji and the others preparing?"

Mo Ya said in a deep voice: "Lord Xiao He has stored 100,000 dan of grain in the city, enough for 50,000 people for several months; Lord Liu Ji has also made preparations, and will seal off the city at your command. In addition, Zhou Bo, Fan Kuai and others have also put on armor and are training the soldiers in the city day and night."

"Very good." Tianxuan was very satisfied to hear that his subordinates were ready.

Oh oh oh!
Just as Tianxuan and Mo Ya were analyzing the layout of the city, something unexpected happened. In the distant sky, a low, sobbing horn sounded, condensing endless depression, as if the sky had changed and the sky might fall at any time.

boom! boom! boom!
Before the horn sounded, a dark mass of objects were approaching from afar. Thousands of horse hooves landed on the ground, making a deafening sound, as if a dragon deep in the earth was turning over, trying to destroy the magnificent city of Wushuang.

Awoo! Awoo! Awoo! It was as if the flood from myth and legend had reappeared in the world. The enemies attacking from afar were accompanied by a series of low wolf howls, like a wolf god on patrol.

【Is it finally here? 】

Tianxuan, who had guessed this would happen, looked at the black tide that was still more than ten miles away and had already brought tremendous pressure to his Wushuang City. Although there was shock on his face, he was more aware of it as expected.

"Close the city gate!"

As the thought came to his mind, Tianxuan swung his arms fiercely, put his full strength into his voice, and gave a decisive order.

"Here."

The soldiers in the city had been preparing for a long time. Although most of the soldiers did not see the enemy at the first time, combined with the orders issued by Tianxuan during this period, even the stupid ones could guess what was happening. Therefore, when Tianxuan gave an order, the whole Wushuang City rang out in unison.

The soldiers guarding the city gate began to lift the bridge and closed the city gate.

tread!tread!tread!
In a dense pace, a thousand archers rushed to the top of the city wall, divided into three teams: front, middle and back. Each of them held a crossbow, and the sharp arrowheads flashed a deadly cold light under the sunlight, aiming at the enemy attacking from afar. In addition, catapults, gold juice and other items were also prepared.

"Qin Feng!"

"Qin Feng!"

"Qin Feng!"

……

It only took a cup of tea for Wushuang City to transform from an undefended city into a magnificent city armed to the teeth. The loud military bugle echoed in the city, filled with endless murderous aura, as if it was about to soar into the sky.

"attack!"

Here, Tian Xuan, who had been prepared for this, gave an order, and Wushuang City completed its gorgeous transformation in just a cup of tea, and was fully armed. On the other side, the wolf tribe, with one horse per person and as many as 200,000 people, also rushed in front of them.

The leader of the wolf tribe, the Xiongnu Chanyu, Touman, led an army of extraordinary personal bravery but almost no discipline to a hundred feet outside Wushuang City. Although the grassland wolf tribe attacked like the wind, there were no fortresses or cities on the grassland, so in their poor concept, they only needed to prepare a few ladders to climb the city walls to attack the city.

Touman Chanyu, who coveted the wealth of Wushuang City and was determined to seize Wushuang City and make it a treasure trove for the Xiongnu, personally led an army of 200,000 to attack the gate. Seeing that the gate of Wushuang City was closed, a trace of disappointment flashed across Touman Chanyu's wolf eyes, and he ordered his subordinates to attack.

"Kill!"

"After we enter the city, everything inside will be ours."

"Come on!"

……

Following an order from Chanyu Touman, tens of thousands of Hun cavalry charged forward with roars and cries, a dark mass like an endless surge of evil water.

Boom!

The 30,000 cavalry led by Zuo Da Danghu had just charged forward for 30 feet when a loud noise came from the ground. The seemingly solid ground cracked, and in the endless dust, a hole that was a hundred feet long and ten feet deep, filled with sharp spears and halberds, appeared. Nearly a thousand Xiongnu cavalrymen were unable to dodge and fell into the hole. Both the horses and the men were pierced and turned into skewers. Screams and wails replaced the brutal and bloodthirsty slogans.
