While Xia Houyuan was sighing, Xu Shu rode up to him. Seeing the devastated Jicheng and the charred corpses in the city, he could probably guess something.
"General, the Chinese army has a very powerful weapon. It seems that someone deliberately lured Cheriji and others into the city and detonated the things originally buried underground. The entire city has become a pile of ruins. Hundreds of thousands of Qiang people
It's gone like this. It seems that there is wisdom in the Chinese army.
There are people with extremely sophisticated plans. Now that our army has lost the opportunity, we can only plunder the people's food along the way for our own use, and then retreat to the Baishi Mountain and Wushu Cave Mountain areas, take a defensive position, and wait for the arrival of His Majesty's reinforcements," Xu Shu said.
Go out of your own mind.
Xia Houyuan still doesn't want to believe this is true. Although the Qiang people appeared here unexpectedly, it is not difficult to imagine that the grain harvesting in Jicheng is the foundation of the entire Liangzhou. The Qiang people must have attacked Jicheng for food and grass.
.It’s just that all this comes
It was too sudden. All 140,000 Qiang troops were wiped out overnight. This is so unimaginable. Even if 140,000 people stand in front of you, each one holding a knife
Poke, don't you have to do it for two or three days?
"It seems that this is all we can do. Let's withdraw our troops and go back." Xia Houyuan was dejected. Losing Cheriji, a powerful foreign aid, was undoubtedly a huge blow to him.
Xu Shu and Xia Houyuan turned their horses' heads together, and as soon as they took a few steps forward, Cao Xiu pointed to the ruins in the city and said, "It's Cheriji!"
This cry made Xia Houyuan and Xu Shu extremely excited. They hurriedly turned their heads and looked over. They saw Cheriji stumbled out of the city under the protection of Zhi Wudai, and then suddenly appeared under the ruins of the city.
Nearly a thousand people came out, and everyone looked frightened when they appeared. When they saw everything in the city, they were heartbroken and wailed like crazy.
Xia Houyuan's face was filled with joy. As long as he saw that Cheliji was fine, the Qiang people would always be Wei's foreign aid. The Qiang people had a population of over one million, so what if they died? Moreover, the Qiang people could all be soldiers. This time the Qiang people
Although all his elite soldiers were lost, as long as Cheliji was angered and mobilized all the Qiang people to fight for Liangzhou, then the entire Qinzhou, not to mention Liangzhou, could be taken back.
"Hahaha... I knew that the Qiang King was so lucky that he would not die..." Xia Houyuan hurriedly galloped towards Cheliji, got off his horse, walked directly in front of Cheliji, and said loudly.
With a gloomy look on his face, Cheriji just sighed heavily, said nothing, and ignored Xia Houyuan. He lowered his head and walked outside, probably because he felt too embarrassed.
Mi Dang hurriedly said to Xia Houyuan: "General Xia Hou, don't worry. Our king is secretly regretting that he was fooled by Sima Yi. As a result...if we hadn't reacted quickly and found a cellar and got into it, even if we didn't
If you are killed by a bomb, you will also be killed by the Huaxia Army. Last night was really thrilling. The Huaxia Army’s grandma’s bear..."
Seeing these people who were still alive, Xia Houyuan's body was unkempt and covered with loess, and he roughly guessed something. He said: "It doesn't matter, as long as you are fine, what are you going to do now?"
"What should I do? Hehehe, of course he is looking for revenge on the Chinese army. The king said that as soon as he returns to the Qiang land, he will immediately issue a war preparation order. All men, as long as they are older than fifteen years old and younger than fifty years old, will
We all have to go to the battlefield and wipe out the Chinese army with blood..." Mi Dang said harsh words.
After hearing this, Xia Houyuan felt happy for a while and immediately said: "This is the best. Let's join hands and kill the Chinese army without leaving any trace behind."
Mi Dang said: "General Xiahou, we want to borrow some horses and will return to Qiang land..."
"It's easy to say, we are brothers in need, so it's no big deal." After saying that, Xiahou Yuan asked some of the cavalry to dismount and distributed them among the hundreds of people who escaped from the city. Midang took the place of Cheriji and said goodbye to Xia Houyuan, and immediately returned.
.
It turned out that last night Cheriji convened the Mi Dang, Zhi Wu Dai, Fa Tong, and Mo Zhai to discuss how to find the whereabouts of the grain tomorrow. Suddenly there was a series of explosions, and everyone went out to look around, but saw that they were from the city.
The door extended inward, and explosions continued to sound. Houses and everything flew into the sky, not to mention people and animals.
There happened to be a few Qiang people making rice in a buried pot in the backyard. They dug out a series of explosive packets from the ground and presented them to Cheriji. After taking a look at them, Cheriji immediately realized the seriousness of the situation and hurriedly made a prompt decision.
The soldiers began to dig a hole in the backyard where the series of explosive packets were found, and then worked with people
They hid together and survived. In order to survive, most of the rest of the people jumped into cellars, wells and other places. When the whole city exploded, the group of people hiding in the cave felt that the ground was shaking.
He trembled because of it, and then the ruins pressed down on the entrance of the cave, and he was able to escape the pursuit of the Chinese army who later entered the city.
In fact, Sima Yi didn't see Cheriji's head last night, but then he thought that it might have been blown to pieces by explosives, so he didn't care. To be on the safe side, he doused the whole city with fierce fire oil and set a fire.
He thought that even if there was a fish that slipped through the net, it would still be burned by the fire, but he didn't know that Cheriji was well versed in Sun Tzu's art of war and knew the techniques of hole warfare, so he escaped the disaster.
Even so, it took a lot of effort to get out of the ground where they were suppressed by heavy objects. Because the air underground is thin and there are no vents, many people hiding inside failed to survive.
It's true that when Cheriji had people digging the hole in the ground, he specially left air holes leading to the ground, otherwise he wouldn't have survived.
Although Fa Tong and Mo Zhe Zha also hid underground, because the area they were in was directly crushed by heavy objects, they were buried on the ground and would never survive.
Five or six hundred cavalrymen, including Cheriji, Zhiwudai and others, drove toward the Qiang with their heads down, and everyone felt extremely regretful in their hearts.
Especially Cheriji, although he was proficient in the art of war, he was unable to distinguish between authenticity and falsehood, so he fell into Sima Yi's trick and lost this good opportunity to compete for Liangzhou.
"Midang, have you told Xia Houyuan everything I taught you to say?" Cheriji asked.
"I've said it all. But, Your Majesty, are we really going back this time? Aren't we going to avenge the hundreds of thousands of clan members?" Midang asked doubtfully.
"Revenge! It's just a gentleman's revenge. It's not too late in ten years. Although I have hatred in my heart, I can never push the Qiang people to the edge of danger. The Chinese army is too powerful. We are not opponents yet. Let's continue to accumulate strength and wait.
We are as powerful as the Chinese army
Weapons that are harmful to us, that is, when we are fighting for world hegemony. Keep those things and be sure not to throw them away. When you return to the Qiang land, let the Han craftsmen study them and see how they can make exactly the same thing.
"Cherry Ji said calmly on his face.
"Your Majesty's insight is extraordinary and cannot be matched by ours. It is really a blessing for our Qiang people." Mi Dang said with his fists clasped.
"I have always considered myself to be far-sighted. I thought that an army of 230,000 could permanently occupy Liangzhou. However, in reality, Chelixiang lost his elite iron chariot soldiers, and then Daxia City was defeated, and then I was defeated in Jicheng.
, it seems that the Huaxia Kingdom is indeed a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger. After returning, he immediately communicated with the Huaxia Kingdom and asked for belonging, temporarily showing weakness to the Huaxia Kingdom in order to protect himself. "
After hearing this, Mi Dang and Zhi Wudai felt ashamed for a while, but they both understood that Cheriji did this just to preserve his strength.
"Your Majesty, where is the Wei army?" Zhi Wudai asked.
"Let them fend for themselves, they have nothing to do with us anymore!" Cheriji said.
………………
Xia Houyuan, Xu Shu, and Cao Xiu withdrew their troops from Jicheng and returned to Baishi Mountain. They had just walked less than thirty miles when they ran into the army brought by Zhang Xiu.
Xia Houyuan was startled, and hurriedly rode forward, came to Zhang Xiu's side, and asked: "General Zhang, why are you here?"
Zhang Xiu sneered and said, "I'll kill you!"
Before he finished speaking, Zhang Xiu raised a spear and stabbed Xia Houyuan directly in the throat. Xia Houyuan was caught off guard and hurriedly dodged, but Zhang Xiu's spear also changed its moves, and the tip of the spear sealed Xia Houyuan's body.
A series of rapid stabs stabbed Xia Houyuan's left arm.
Before Xia Houyuan could scream in surprise, Cao Xiu, Xu Shu, Deng Bai, Wen Ji and others immediately led their troops to kill Zhang Xiu until Zhang Xiu rebelled.
Xia Houyuan never expected that Zhang Xiu would suddenly rebel. He was pressed step by step by Zhang Xiu, and he didn't even have a chance to fight back. This was the first time he fought against Zhang Xiu, the so-called spear king of the North, but Zhang Xiu made an unexpected move, causing
He had no defense. Not only was he shot in his left arm, but his sword was also knocked away.
"Xia Houyuan!" Suddenly there was a loud shout from both sides of the road. Ma Chao led a wave of cavalry and appeared on the hillside. All the crossbowmen of the Chinese army also shot at the Wei army, blocking the Wei army in the valley. The soldiers behind Zhang Xiu
They all rushed forward, flanking the army led by Xia Houyuan from front to back, left and right. Suddenly, rolling rocks fell from the hillside, and arrows rained down, killing many Wei soldiers.
Ma Chao took the lead and galloped down the hillside with a chirp. The Earth Fire Xuanlu Spear took the lead and galloped towards Xia Houyuan.
Zhang Xiu used the Hundred Birds Chao Phoenix Spear to cover Xia Houyuan tightly. When Ma Chao arrived, he immediately shouted: "Brother, I leave it to you!"
Ma Chao had a ferocious face and his marksmanship was trembling. Xia Houyuan had just escaped from Zhang Xiu's northwest wolf, but he was greeted by Ma Chao's fierce tiger. He hurriedly engaged in battle and stood with Ma Chao.
Zhang Xiu led his men and galloped towards Cao Xiu and others. With long spears clearing the way, arrows and rolling stones continued to fall from both sides. For a time, the Wei army suffered heavy losses.
(ps: Some people think that as soon as Sima Yi came out, 140,000 Qiang people were wiped out. It was a bit too much, and it made generals such as Taishi Ci, Ma Chao, and Pang De embarrassed. In fact, it is not an exaggeration at all. Sima Yi deceived
Cheliji entered the city and planted explosives throughout the city. Later, he blocked the four city gates with soldiers. The panicked Qiang people were killed even if they left the city. They completely occupied the right time and place. How could Sima Yian be invincible? As for the explosives
How powerful is it? If you have time, you can try it yourself. Although adding explosives is too yy, but since it is added, it must be used thoroughly, otherwise the protagonist will be idle if it is not used.
Does your egg hurt? Of course, explosives are dangerous. Don’t try them randomly if you have nothing to do. Just try firecrackers. Although the power is much worse, it can still hurt people. I won’t explain it too much, as it will affect your reading.)
