Li Gang led 5,000 cavalry in a wall-mounted formation and took the lead in attacking the Huns' central army.
"Boom" The huge roaring sound is like two giant beasts fighting!
Li Gang's army was like a sharp giant arrow, piercing into the conical formation of the Huns. The Huns could not withstand Li Gang's wall-mounted charge. At the same time, on both sides of Li Gang, Xie Yan and the others also
He began to pull his crossbow continuously, and kept shooting at the Huns opposite Li Gang!
Li Gang's cavalry stubbornly blocked the Huns' advance, and the Huns also kept exerting their strength, trying to break through Li Gang's defense and try to escape!
"Warriors, follow me and fight in -!" Go Bei led the Huns' cavalry to attack Li Gang's army again and again. But they failed again and again. Li Gang's cavalry was like a dam, resisting the Huns' attack.
impact.
Different from Xie Yan's militia, Li Gang's army is the standing army of Mayi, and its equipment is the best. It is fully equipped with steel swords and armor. Li Gang and the others cut down the Huns almost with one sword. And the Huns' sabers
The clanking sound of the chop also hurt Li Gang's men. This was a complete crushing of equipment!
Their bodies have been fed a reasonable diet in Mayi for more than three years. The food for each person is equivalent to that of a small landlord in this world. Coupled with reasonable exercise, each physical quality has been strengthened, and their bodies are burly and powerful!
Moreover, these soldiers have experienced all the wars in Mayi for more than three years, and their combat experience is extremely rich!
It can be said that Li Gang and the others are upgraded versions of Xie Yan’s cavalry!
Even if the Huns risk their lives and rush forward bravely, they will still be unable to break through this iron defense line!
Xie Yan and others behind Li Gang were raining crossbow arrows, "Whoosh!" The crossbow arrows kept passing over Li Gang and his cavalry, hitting the Huns' warriors, and arrows flew out one after another from the high-speed horses.
The knights on their horses fell down one after another, and then they were swept away and trampled by countless horse hooves. Some of them didn't even have time to howl. More and more Huns warriors were shot to death or killed by Li Gang and others.
Hacked to death.
Go Bei found that there were fewer and fewer soldiers around him, and knew that if they didn't rush out, they would definitely die. At this time, he discovered the brave and invincible Li Gang. He thought that if he killed Li Gang, the armored army would definitely collapse, and they would also
A gap could be opened, so he led his most elite personal guards to rush towards Li Gang!
Qian Bei, who brought his bodyguard with him, was brave and invincible, and easily cut his way to Li Gang!
Qu Bei angrily said: "Han people, die!"
Li Gang used his long knife to block Qu Bei's sword, but Qu Bei's sword was so powerful and heavy that it knocked Li Gang's long sword away!
Li Gang found out that he was very good at Beer. He knew that he was no match, so he did not try to make a fool of himself. Instead, he said to his bodyguard: "This man is very powerful. Prepare to shoot him to death with a crossbow!"
Then he took out a spare sword and faced it!
But Qubei slashed him eleven times again, three of which hit Li Gang. However, even though his sword was blunt, he could not break Li Gang's armor. Qubei was so angry that he found a spear on the battlefield.
He directly knocked Li Gang off his horse!
At this moment, Li Gang's personal guards also prepared their crossbows and fired at them!
"Boohoo!" He was shot by more than a dozen long arrows as soon as he went to have a beer!
He could only say unwillingly: "I should use heavy weapons to deal with you iron bastards!"
Then he went to the beer and fell to the ground!
Li Gang looked at the three deep marks on his armor and rejoiced: "Damn it, my armor has been hardened, otherwise I would really die here!"
At this time, Niu Gui led 15,000 people in a long snake formation to press over. The first three rows of these soldiers were extremely sharp spears, and behind them were crossbowmen with long arrows. The sharp spears not only suppressed the Huns Festival
Backing away, the crossbow arrows shot at the Huns like a heavy rain, reaping the lives of the Huns like a sickle!
The Huns could not resist and were retreating steadily. The range of activities suppressed by Niu Gui and the others became smaller and smaller! It became increasingly difficult to break through.
Crossbow arrows do not differentiate between herdsmen and nobles. More and more Huns are killed by crossbow arrows, and for every Huns killed, hundreds of Huns fall into chaos.
The arrival of Niu Gui completely made the Huns collapse. They could not see a glimmer of hope. The death of their companions made fear occupy their hearts. When the first Huns dropped their long swords and shouted: "We surrender!"
Don’t kill us!”
Then the other Huns suddenly lost their morale, dropped their swords one by one and shouted: "We surrender!"
Niu Gui was overjoyed when he saw this and shouted: "Surrender without killing!"
The soldiers around Niu Gui also shouted: "Surrender without killing! Surrender without killing!"
But when the entire Tengjia army on the battlefield shouted like this, the Huns dropped their swords and surrendered in droves!
When Xubu Guduhou saw that there were no more Huns fighting on the battlefield, he actually became the last Huns chanyu!
He knew that with the policies of the Tengjia Army, there would be no more Huns as a race in the future. Instead of Qiang Qu, he not only failed to become a hero of the Huns, but instead became the eternal sinner of the Huns! Such a sense of loss made him unbearable.
I couldn't bear this kind of contrast, and the fact that the Huns perished in my own hands, I took my own sword and put it on my neck, and touched it! A stream of blood spurted out.
When facing death, Xubu Guduhou was thinking about whether Qiangqu's method could allow the Huns to continue! Did he really do something wrong?
The Xiongnu Chanyu committed suicide, declaring the end of the war.
Niu Gui began to lead people to clean the battlefield and collect the prisoners, but at this moment a cavalry rushed from the north, which shocked everyone, but after seeing clearly that it was the sickle and hammer flag of the Tengjia Army, Niu Gui breathed a sigh of relief!
At this time, a general took the lead and came to Niu Gui: "Brother Niu, why didn't you leave me a few people to kill? I led an army of 60,000 to support you hard, and I supported you alone!"
Niu Gui smiled and said: "You came just in time. We have been fighting for a long time and have run out of energy for a long time. Now you come here just in time to help us clean up the battlefield!"
Niu Gui’s words made both of them laugh!
Then Wang Yong said: "Brother Niu, you are so powerful now. With an army of 30,000 people, most of which are infantry, you can actually defeat the Huns' 40,000 cavalry. This fighting ability is no longer inferior to that of Commander Qu!"
Niu Gui shook his head and said: "Actually, I have been on defense. If your support had not arrived, the Huns were so scared that they wanted to run away, but were blocked by our navy on the Yellow River. The Huns would not have been wiped out so easily. This
It was Li Gang who made the first contribution for the first time. He used 5,000 cavalry to block the attack of more than 20,000 Huns cavalry, which established our victory this time!"
Then Niu Gui asked: "Why do these Huns attack our Tengjia Army? And they join forces with the Xianbei people?"
Niu Gui knew that the Xianbei people were attacking Shuofang and Wuyuan County, but he didn't know much about other things. But he felt strange that their Tengjia Army had been fighting the Xianbei people and the Han army, and they seemed to have little contact with the Huns.
, why did the Huns suddenly attack the territory of their Tengjia Army? It seems that their Tengjia Army did not offend the Huns.
Had it not been for the existence of a Yellow River in Yunzhong County this time, he would have discovered that the Huns wasted too much time crossing the Yellow River, giving him time to strengthen the walls, clear the country, and defend himself. With the strength of these 40,000 Huns, he would have launched a surprise attack.
It is really possible to capture Yunzhong County, at least the entire Yunzhong County will suffer heavy casualties!
Wang Yong also felt confused and said: "At first it seemed that the Han Emperor recruited the Huns to go to Youzhou to quell the rebellion. The Huns rebelled if they didn't want to. They killed Qiang Qu and established a new Chanyu. Then he led an army of 80,000 people.
Starting to attack our territory, in addition to the 40,000 Yunzhong County, there are 40,000 people from Dingxiang County. Commander Qu also recruited 150,000 troops, 30,000 to defend Mayi, 60,000 to be led by me to support you, and 60,000 from
Qu Shuai leads the way to deal with Baima Tong!"
Niu Gui said inexplicably: "What does this have to do with our Tengjia Army?"
Wang Yong also felt strange and said: "Who says it's not the case? Now Qu Shuai is still thinking of ways to deal with Baima Tong. I don't know if he has won?"
"Baima Tong has been wiped out by Qu Shuai! Then I used my fleet to cross the Yellow River, and now I am attacking Meiji. I don't think it will be long before our Tengjia Army will have another Xihe County!" At this time, a voice came.
Coming over, Niu Gui and the others took a closer look and found out that it was Navy Captain Fan Xian.
Niu Gui laughed when he saw Fan Xian and said, "If your navy hadn't cut off the Huns' retreat this time, they might have escaped. Fan Xian, you are a great hero in this battle!"
Fan Xian was one of the first refugees to follow Xu Wei, and he was considered a veteran among the Tengjia Army. However, he was a non-competitive person and liked peace and quiet. It was because he liked peace and quiet that Xu Wei helped him name Fan Xian.
In the end, he chose to become the captain of the Tengjia Army's transport team. In the past two years, the Tengjia Army has been engaged in constant wars, and the others have repeatedly made military exploits. But basically nothing happens to him. He spends most of his time using the fleet.
, helped the Tengjia Army transport industrial products to all corners of the Han Dynasty. If it weren't for the need to use the fleet to deal with the Huns this time, so he was made a captain, he would still be the captain of the transportation team.
Wang Yong was also surprised and said: "Doesn't this mean that the Southern Huns were wiped out by our Tengjia Army?"
These were the Huns, who were once the overlords of the grasslands. They had fought against the Han for hundreds of years, but were actually destroyed by their Tengjia army. Wang Yong was still a little excited at this time!
But soon Wang Yong became a little frustrated and said: "I led an army of 60,000 to fight, but only 5,000 of them went to fight. The other 50,000 soldiers only lost a few hundred miles. It's really hard to explain to them!"
Niu Guidao: "Why don't you go support Wuyuan County and Shuofang County, where there are still 60,000 Xianbei cavalry. I'm really worried that Wang Lei and Zhao Rong won't be able to hold on!"
Fan Xian also followed up and said: "If you want to continue to perform meritorious services, I can take you to Wuyuan County, but let's make an agreement first. The counterattack on the river for hundreds of miles is a strenuous job, and your soldiers must be in the cabin.
Step on the propeller!”
In Fan Xian's fleet, the small boats still use oars, but the large ships with a weight of more than 2,000 materials are basically equipped with propellers at the stern.
This is of course a black technology developed by Xu Wei. The propeller is a high-tech thing, but it is really high-tech. What kind of five-axis machine tool is used? It is said that few countries in the world can do it.
But it can be said to be very low. It can be made by fixing several blades with an iron rod and rivet technology. Of course, even this is such a simple propeller, but it is a first-class high-tech in this world. There are only a few blades in the world.
The steel factory in Neng Mayi can produce it.
Of course, propellers alone are not enough, you also need power. Xu Wei doesn't even have a steam engine, not to mention a motor, but he can use manpower. He just needs to make a hockey stick and put it on the pedals, connect it with gears, and 40 people can pedal it.
The speed is faster than that of 200 people paddling. This is why Fan Xian's fleet can travel on the upper reaches of the Yellow River as if on flat ground!
Wang Yong shook his head and said, "Commander Qu has sent Huang Long to lead 10,000 cavalry to support! Wuyuan and Shuofang County!"
Niu Guidao: "This is enough people and horses! There are 60,000 Xianbei people!"
Wang Yong said: "Brother Niu, don't worry. These 10,000 troops are not going to fight the Xianbei people, but to attack the Xianbei people's tribe. This is also our old tactic. I think the Xianbei people must have heard that their tribe was attacked and their hometown was on fire.
We have to retreat! Huang Long has one man and three horses, and his marching speed exceeds 200 miles in one day. Maybe he has repelled the enemy now! Now he is retreating with the spoils of war!"
Sure enough, not long after Niu Gui and the others returned to Yunzhong County with their army, good news came from Wuyuan County. Huanglong defeated three large Huns tribes by beating the chiefs and dividing cattle and sheep, and attacked Shuofang in terror.
The Xianbei tribes in the county and Wuyuan County immediately fled from the territory of the Tengjia Army. Now Huanglong is leading tens of thousands of Xianbei people back.
At this time, Niu Gui heard that tens of thousands of people were coming to Yunzhong County, so he pulled Wang Yong and asked him to lead 30,000 cavalry to meet Huang Long and the others, saying that he was worried about Huang Long being chased by the Xianbei people and causing an accident!
Wang Yong also felt that it was reasonable. Now that Huang Long had tens of thousands of Xianbei people around him, his marching speed was naturally slow and he was easily pursued by the Xianbei people, so he led an army of 30,000 to protect Huang Long and the others!
But Niu Gui actually had another purpose. In this battle with the Huns, the entire Yunzhong County suffered tens of thousands of casualties, which was a huge loss to the Yunzhong County with only 30,000 young people. He is now trying to figure out how to increase the population.
Come.
As a result, Huanglong brought tens of thousands of people over. What is there to say? Of course, they must all stay in Yunzhong County! However, most of the people Huanglong brought over should be women and children. Although the women and children of the Xianbei people are stronger, they are not
It is impossible to really use the strong labor force.
So he focused on Niu Gui's 60,000-strong army. Of course, it was not that he wanted to support the 60,000-strong army, but the tens of thousands of militiamen and transportation and logistics personnel among the 60,000-strong army. This time Wang Yong could
Not only did they bring a large army, but they also had more than 100,000 civilians, who were all first-class strong labor force.
It would be most suitable for them to settle in Yunzhong County. Originally, he had no good way to make these people stay. After all, compared with Mayi, Yunzhong County now is even worse than when they first went to Mayi.
It is difficult to retain people in such an environment.
But it was different when Huanglong came. Tens of thousands of Xianbei women stayed in Yunzhong County, and he didn't believe that the old bachelors in Mayi didn't want to stay! Although Wang Lei brought hundreds of thousands of Xianbei women and children last time,
Even though there are still many bachelors in Mayi, if they can find a wife in Yunzhong County, many people are willing to stay. If this operation is done well, the population of Yunzhong County can exceed 100,000! There will be enough labor force
Come and develop Yunzhong County.
After Wang Lei left, Niu Gui started his own actions.
He first brought the senior civil and military officials of Yunzhong County, as well as a large amount of food, cattle and sheep, to the military camp, saying that he wanted to reward everyone!
The 30,000 infantrymen who stayed in Yunzhong City did not suspect that Niu Gui had other purposes. After all, everyone came hundreds of miles to support them, so it was only right for Niu Gui to get some food to reward everyone!
Then the group of people brought by Niu Gui greeted everyone with greetings.
Niu Gui even personally held the hand of a man named Zhu Minmin and asked: "How many acres of land do you have at home? How is the harvest this year?"
When Zhu Min saw that Niu Gui, a prefect, was so kind to him, he was very excited and said: "My family has 30 acres of land, and the harvest is pretty good. This year, I will collect 110 shi of grain and 30 shi of soybeans! After paying the tax, I can make as much as a year."
Thousands of dollars!”
Niu Gui continued to ask: "How many people are there in the family?"
Zhu Min shook his head reluctantly and said: "Everyone in my family is starving to death. If I hadn't followed Qu Shuai, I would have starved to death in Jizhou!"
Niu Gui was a little happy in his heart. It was better to be alone. This way, he would not be involved. He could leave as soon as he wanted. It would be easier to settle in Yunzhong County. Of course, he did not show it on his face, but patted him heavily on the shoulder and said: "
Everything will be fine, as long as you start a family and start a business, and have descendants to pass on the incense, your parents will also feel comforted underground!"
Zhu Min said awkwardly: "It's hard to find a wife in Mayi! I want to find one too, but there's never been a suitable one!"
Workers and farmers in Mayi, after they have some savings or their own land in the past two years, they want to start their own families and have children to pass on the incense. However, there are too many men in Mayi, and there are also more and more problems.
There are more and more trends coming.
In addition, women in Mayi can get a high-paying job in textile factories. It can be said that the economic independence of women in Mayi is no longer inferior to that of Xu Wei Modern. Economic independence naturally brings independence of personality. Today’s women in Mayi
The women in Mayi have very high vision, and there are many girls and boys. The women in Mayi have very high vision, and ordinary tribesmen are still unwilling to marry, so that now there are tens of thousands of singles in Mayi!
Niu Gui also worried and said: "You can't do this, pass on the family line from generation to generation, how can you pass on the incense without a wife, your parents will not feel at ease underground!
Zhu Min was also worried and said: "But who told us that there are few women in Mayi? We are young and don't have much savings and don't have much ability. They don't like me!"
At this time Niu Gui said with a smile: "You should know that Captain Huanglong is bringing tens of thousands of Xianbei women and children to our Yunzhong County!"
Zhu Min immediately understood what Niu Gui meant. Last time Wang Lei brought hundreds of thousands of women and children, which solved life-long events for many people. Even Qu Shuai helped everyone hold weddings. During that time, hundreds of people got married every day in Mayi.
, but it made the whole Mayi lively for a long time, but it was a pity that Zhu Min was still in the countryside of Mayi at that time, and his competitiveness was not as competitive as the tribesmen in Mayi.
Zhu Min looked envious and said: "My lord, we can share a wife this time!"
Niu Guidao: "We in the Tengjia Army believe that everyone is equal, even if they are Xianbei people. We will not divide wives, but these people will settle in our Yunzhong County. We can arrange a blind date for you, as long as you see
If we meet our eyes, it will be done.
And you also know that Yunzhong County just fought a battle with the Huns. Although they won, there were tens of thousands of casualties. In other places of the Tengjia Army, there were more men than women, but in Yunzhong County, there were more women than men. If you
If you are willing to stay in Yunzhong County, the chance of success will definitely be several times higher than that in Mayi. When you get married, I will learn from Qu Shuai and help you host the wedding!
At this time, Zhu Min showed hesitation. Compared with Mayi, which had been developed for two years, Yunzhong County was really a rural place. He really had no intention of staying in Yunzhong County. Moreover, he couldn't worry about his thirty acres.
land!
Niu Gui naturally knew Zhu Min's estimate, so he said again: "Although the current conditions in Yunzhong County are not as good as those in Mayi, Mayi was not what it is now from the beginning. It wasn't even after Qu Shuai led us for several years.
Only through hard work can we be as wealthy as we are now!
The conditions in Yunzhong County are much better than those in Mayi. Mayi has only one Sanggan River at most, but there are Huanggan River and Baiqu River in Yunzhong County, which can easily cultivate millions of acres of irrigated land, as long as you stay in Mayi.
Yi, I can make the decision for you. You can cultivate 100 acres of wasteland. Moreover, Yunzhong County is larger than Mayi and has a lot of pasture. If, little brother, you take a Xianbei wife, then you will cultivate the land and your mother-in-law will sell it.
, in this small life, it is easy to make 20,000-30,000 yuan a year!"
After being deceived by Niu Gui, Zhu Min also discovered that Yunzhong County was not without its benefits. It had a lot of land and a lot of wives, and he lacked both of these things now. If he really worked hard, he could have a wife in 2-3 years.
With hundreds of acres of land, this is quite a bargain!
Zhu Min said: "Okay, as long as Prefect Niu helps me find a wife, I will come to Yunzhong County to settle down!"
Niu Gui was also happy because he got a strong laborer.
Situations like Niu Gui's happened throughout the camp. Hundreds of senior officials in Yunzhong County led by Niu Gui continued to use land and women to lure soldiers and civilians who came to Yunzhong County.
If you have a wife at home, you can still resist this temptation, but singles in Mayi basically cannot resist the temptation of a mother-in-law. Niu Gui's deception actually made 20,000 Tengjia Army members decide to settle in Yunzhong County
.Most of them are civilians, but a few are soldiers and officers!
Wang Yong's subordinates discovered Niu Gui's move and wanted to stop it.
But Niu Gui said righteously: "After the war, these people will have withdrawn from the army. They have nothing to do with you at all, and immigration has always been the policy of our Tengjia Army. Even Commander Qu knows what I am doing.
You’ll also be applauded!”
Wang Yong's generals had no choice. Niu Gui was senior and had a high position, so they had no way to stop him.
