Chapter Seventy-One: Seize the Niyang

Add additional updates, please accept and reward!

The first one to arrive were the Qiang people's city guarding soldiers. Just a charge, this group of Qiang soldiers were drilled through by the cavalry. The Qiang soldiers did not expect that the Qiang people's cavalry who had just entered the city would suddenly launch an attack....

Jia Rong found that he was increasingly liking the pleasure of galloping around on the war horse and killing the enemy under the horse. It was a feeling that could not be expressed in words. Hearing the sound of the wind passing by in his ears and seeing the enemy give him a head, it was very pleasant.

At this moment, thousands of Han cavalry who had just retreated returned and rushed towards Niyang.

Jia Rong looked at the Qiang general who was constantly commanding in the Qiang soldiers, and wanted to try his skills, raise his sword and kill the Qiang general.

The Qiang soldiers were constantly charged by the cavalry brought by Jia Rong, and the battle formation was in chaos. Who would have taken care of Jia Rong?

When the Qiang generals found that Jia Rong was rushing towards him, they saw Jia Rong galloping to the Qiang generals, slashing with a knife, and using the horse's power, the sword was very sharp. With a flash of sword light, the Qiang leader cut his head and shoulders into two sections.

Looking at the gaps at the knife edge, Jia Rong shook his head. The material of this knife is not very good, and he will find a good standing knife in the future.

As soon as the Qiang leader died, the Qiang team in the city became even more chaotic. The Han cavalry rushed in from outside the city went down the mountain like a tiger, and the Qiang soldiers in the city were quickly wiped out.

Although Niyang County was attacked, the flag on the city wall has not changed, and it is still under the banner of the Qiang people.

This time, it was a great victory. In the two battles, 5,000 Qiang soldiers were eliminated, Niyang was captured, and countless food and supplies were obtained. The losses were not great. More than 9,000 Qiang soldiers were surrendered, including the Qiang cavalry who surrendered during the previous battle in the valley.

In Niyang County, where the Qiang generals lived in the past, Dong Zhuo couldn't help laughing when he heard the results of Jia Rong's report. The unhappiness caused by Huangfu Song's order also disappeared a lot. This was a great military achievement.

Dong Zhuo walked to the middle chair with three steps and sat down, saying, "Zhiyuan made great contributions in this battle. Zhiyuan has made any requests."

Jia Rong immediately stepped out and bowed and replied, "I report to the general that it is a humble honor to serve the Western Liang army, and I dare not give any rewards."

Dong Zhuo felt even more relieved and smiled and said, "This is a bad word for Zhiyuan, and you will be rewarded for any merits."

"In this way, you can select 3,000 of the surrendered Qiang soldiers, and then select 3,000 of the captured Qiang war horses, form a cavalry team, and directly be under your command." Dong Zhuo thought for a while and said.

Jia Rong hurriedly thanked him. Having a cavalry was his long-cherished wish, especially seeing the invincible impact ability of the cavalry on the battlefield, he became even more impressed.

After the Xiliang Army rested in the city for a day, a cavalry of about 20,000 people appeared outside the city. The waving flag showed the identity of this army, and the army led by the Qiang leader Li Wenhou.

Seeing the Qiang people still on the city, Li Wenhou let out a long sigh. At least Niyang City was saved, and the two ripples of running around were not in vain.

Dong Zhuo, who received the news, immediately led the generals to the city wall and hid behind the female wall.

Looking at the neat and endless Qiang cavalry outside the city, Jia Rong sighed that encountering such a cavalry team must be a nightmare for the enemy.

Li Wenhou asked a cavalry to come forward and shout: "The guard in the city quickly opens the city gate to welcome the general into the city!"

Jiang Yu, who was beside him, translated the cavalry's call to Jia Rong, and Jia Rong conveyed it to Dong Zhuo.

After hearing the news, Li Ru, who was beside Dong Zhuo, showed a cold smile on his face.

"Lord, our army opened the city gate. After Li Wenhou entered the city, he suddenly came out and captured Li Wenhou in today's morning." Li Ru said softly.

Looking at Li Ru's harmless smile, Jia Rong couldn't help but feel sorry for Li Wenhou under the city. A brave Qiang leader might have ended like this, but thinking about seeing the various bad deeds of the Qiang people on the territory of the Han Dynasty along the way, Jia Rong immediately put away his pity.

Then, Li Ru ordered Jia Rong to do this.

Jia Rong followed Li Ru's instructions and asked Jiang Yu to walk out from behind the female wall.

Jiang Yu was full of energy and shouted loudly to the Qiang cavalry below in Qiang language: "Wait a moment, and the city gate will be opened in a while!"

At this time, Li Wenhou, who was under the city, suddenly realized that something was wrong. According to the news he received, the Xiliang army led by Dong Zhuo must have arrived in Niyang. However, the scouts did not hear any news from the Xiliang army along the way, as if the Han army had suddenly disappeared.

It seemed to be to verify Li Wenhou's premonition, several bloody Qiang cavalry led by the scout to Li Wenhou and murmured at Li Wenhou.

After hearing the soldier's words, Li Wenhou's face changed constantly and couldn't help but be glad that if he had just entered the city in a daze, he might have become a prisoner of the Western Liang Army. Thinking of this, the cold sweat on his back wet his clothes.

However, when he heard that the Niyang Guardian who supported him was killed by the Xiliang army, he was furious and was naturally his confidant.

Li Wenhou cursed in his skillful Chinese: "You little boy Dong Zhuo, you took advantage of the situation and killed my general and occupied my city. When you come to meet you, you will surely crush you to pieces to vent my hatred."

Dong Zhuo, behind the female wall, heard Li Wenhou’s scolding, and knew that the news of Ni Yang’s capture had been leaked, and no longer hid. He walked out from behind the female wall and shouted to Li Wenhou under the city: “Mr. Wen, don’t be fine!”

"Next time I meet you, I will peel you and get cramps. I dare to stand in front of me!" Dong Zhuo continued to curse.

After hearing this, Jia Rong felt chills. Dong Zhuo's first sentence made him look like Li Wenhou hadn't seen each other for many years, but the next sentence was completely changed and full of bandits.

Li Wenhou rushed over with his soldiers. The soldiers were exhausted and could not do anything, so he wisely took the cavalry away.

Dong Zhuo was not complacent about attacking Niyang. He also understood that going deep into the army was a taboo, so he sent many scouts to win the Beidi County.

Although Dong Zhuo was attacking Niyang, Dong Zhuo was always inquiring about the news about Huangfu Song's army.

When Dong Zhuo learned that Huangfu Song had to retreat to Beidi County for Li Wenhou, he was so happy that Huangfu Song was not a famous general of the Han Dynasty? Why was Li Wenhou chased and beaten? Haha, he took Niyang and made a great contribution, so that people in the world could see who is the famous general of the Han Dynasty.

Before leaving, Dong Zhuo handed over the important task of guarding the city gate to Jia Rong.

The war was over, and Jia Rong gradually calmed down. Has he been a little too sharp recently? Thinking of the conversation in front of Li Ru and discussing military affairs with Li Ru, Jia Rong couldn't help but feel a little scared. It seemed that he would be more cautious in his work in the future. Be careful to make the ten thousand-year-old ship, but he didn't know that Li Ru had already paid attention to him.

In the current situation, the responsibility for guarding the city gate is naturally very important. Jia Rong dared not neglect and personally patrolled the city wall to solve the shortcomings one by one, and constantly encouraged the soldiers guarding the city wall.

This is the first time that many soldiers in Xiliang have come into contact with Jia Rong. They have heard of how great Jia Rong was in the Western Liang army before, but now they see that Jia Rong is very friendly in their behavior and their respect for Jia Rong has deepened a lot.

When I saw Jia Rong coming, I bowed respectfully.

After patrolling the city wall, Jia Rong arrived at the military camp without a moment of rest.

Jia Rong called Jiang Yu to accompany him to the residence of the newly recruited Qiang soldiers. As a city adjacent to the Qiang people, Niyang not only had the thickness and height of the city walls that were better than ordinary county-level cities, but the military camps in the city were naturally not small, and they were not crowded with more than 20,000 soldiers.

In the dilapidated barracks, Jia Rong could see from the eyes of these Qiang soldiers that his arrival was not welcome. Jiang Yu walked up and said in a skillful Qiang language: "This is your future general. You must obey this general in the future."

"I'll be my own family in the future. Don't go out and don't know your general's name. My name is Jia Rong. As long as you say my name, other Xiliang troops will never bully you." Jia Rong said.

Jiang Yu next to him immediately said Jia Rong's words to the soldiers in Qiang language.

Looking at the Qiang soldiers who gradually eased, Jia Rong continued, "Now you are my subordinates, so there is no distinction between Qiang and Han people. In my army, anyone will treat everyone equally, whether they are Qiang or Han people, they will be my brothers. Your military pay is the same as the Han army, and will never be deducted."

After hearing Jia Rong's words, the vigilance in their eyes was reduced a lot. They naturally did not want to be discriminated against by other Han soldiers because of racial differences. Jia Rong's words undoubtedly gave them a reassurance. According to his elders, the military pay of the Qiang in the Han army was only half of the Han people, and they were also running in the front when charging in the battle. However, the general mentioned his military pay like the Han people, and his favor for Jia Rong invisibly increased a lot.

A bold Qiang cavalry stood up and said, "Do you let us rush forward during the war?"

One sentence expresses the thoughts of most Qiang soldiers, and all Qiang soldiers look at Jia Rong.

After listening to Jiang Yu's translation, Jia Rong laughed: "Since you are brothers, you are treated equally. You first and I later. On the battlefield, the brothers rushed forward bravely. Who would think about retreating?"

The Qiang soldiers completely relieved themselves. Since they were treated well in the Han army, they were also a way out.

Jia Rong turned his tone and said, "I treat you as brothers. You must abide by the rules of the army. No matter how scattered you were in the Qiang team before, you must listen to me in my team. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude, especially those soldiers who fled in the battle, who were killed on the spot and will never tolerate them. Of course, if the soldiers among you have made merits, I will also promote you. The person next to me is now the commander of the army in my team. He was also a Qiang person before."
