In the silent night, the Xianbei people were enjoying kumis and eating dried meat in their tribe, unaware of the approach of death.
Jia Rong gave an order, and the Xiliang troops mobilized from all sides to kill the unsuspecting Xianbei tribe.
This cannot be called a battle, it can only be called a one-sided massacre. All the elites of Xianbei rushed to the battlefield, and only some old, weak, women and children were left in the tribe. How could they fight against the wolf-like and tiger-like Han army, and they were still caught off guard?
under a sneak attack.
The unarmed Xianbei people were gathered together. Under the light of the fire, Jia Rong could clearly see the fear on their faces. When they heard the cries of these people in front of them, some experienced Xianbei people immediately realized
The Han people have arrived.
They really couldn't understand. Xianbei's 80,000-strong army was on the Han border, and the scouts must have been deployed layer by layer, and their own tribe was in the rear of Xianbei. How did these Han soldiers come to the Xianbei tribe silently?
of.
Jia Rong thought for a long time and highlighted one word: "Kill!"
There was a slight hesitation among the soldiers below. What they saw in front of them was the Xianbei people who had no ability to resist. What happened to the general who always loved the people like his own children and could not bear to kill prisoners? What happened today?
"Kill!" Jia Rong emphasized again that he had no choice. In the territory of the Xianbei people, the whereabouts could be leaked at any time. These people could not stay. The less time they had to be discovered, the more safety they would have.
The Xiliang Army has always regarded following orders as their bounden duty, and it was the general who issued orders to them. He suppressed his inner discomfort and turned the butcher's knife on the Xianbei people.
The atmosphere became quiet and solemn, and there was no joy at all after victory.
"Don't sympathize with your enemies at any time. Think of the Han soldiers who died on the battlefield. Their families are waiting for them at home. If we don't kill these Xianbei people, the whereabouts of our army will be leaked.
, and when the Xianbei army attacks us, these Xianbei people will not be grateful for letting them go tonight, but will instead provide supplies for the Xianbei army." Jia Rong explained in a deep voice.
"Go find food, eat well and sleep well!" Jia Rong gave the order and turned to leave.
After a short period of silence, the soldiers kept cheering loudly, thinking of Pao Ze who died in the desert, and they were very glad that they survived.
After annihilating the Xianbei tribe, they unexpectedly obtained more than a hundred war horses. The soldiers looked at the war horses with burning eyes.
More than a hundred of the most capable men were equipped with war horses. In the Xiliang army, where the strong were respected, this approach was understandable.
With the war horse, it was extremely easy to find out information. Soon, Jia Rong set his sights on a Xianbei tribe again. The Xianbei tribe he massacred before could only be a small tribe, but the tribe he targeted this time was a medium tribe. According to the scouts,
According to the news brought back, there are about 500 war horses in the tribe, and the population is about 5,000 people.
However, it seems that the Xianbei tribe is very well-defended. Perhaps the news that the Xianbei tribe broke into the Han army spread. These days, Jia Rong has been leading the army to loot and replenish his army.
Jia Rong doesn't think that the Xianbei people can muster a large infantry force to annihilate themselves in a short time. Once the Han troops behind them are all equipped with war horses, it will definitely be the Xianbei people's nightmare. He will lead the army to turn the Xianbei people into chaos.
The Xianbei army in Yanmen had to return.
The resistance of the Xianbei tribe was beyond Jia Rong's expectation. After paying the lives of three hundred cavalry, the tribe was completely defeated. In Jia Rong's surprised eyes, the old men of the tribe actually got on their horses and took the sword.
He raised his sword and shot at the Han army.
There is indeed a reason for Xianbei's strength. Like the nomadic people who have always lived on the grasslands, Xianbei pursues the principle of respecting the strong. Without strength, he will only be ridiculed in the tribe and the army. He looks like the leader.
Great Xianbei Khan, why do the people of Xianbei not have the proper respect for him?
There was no way that Jia Rong's more than 2,000 people could completely kill the large tribe of more than 5,000 people.
More than 500 war horses were obtained, and combined with the previous plundering, a cavalry numbering in the thousands was formed, and the combat effectiveness increased sharply.
What surprised Jia Rong even more was that he saw many Han people in this Xianbei tribe. After asking, it turned out that these people were captives when Xianbei plundered the Han people. For many years, they had been living a life inferior to pigs and dogs in Xianbei.
If there is anything inappropriate, it will lead to beatings and scoldings from the Xianbei people.
Jia Rong gathered the young and strong among them and joined the army, and dismissed all the others. On the grassland, the safety of the Xiliang army could not be guaranteed. He would not blindly act as a savior, and his life and death were determined by fate.
Looking at the neat cavalry team behind him, Jia Ronghao suddenly became angry. What a small Xianbei, when Huo Qubing dared to use 800 cavalry to sweep away the tyrannical Huns.
Jia Rong said in a heavy tone: "Our traces have been known to the Xianbei people, and there will be a series of hard battles. You are the most elite soldiers of the Xiliang Army. The Xianbei people have invaded the Han border for many years, killing and plundering the Han people.
Countless, heinous crimes, unforgivable!"
"In the past, General Huo Qubing led 800 people to sweep away the Huns. We have 1,800 people. What should we fear?"
Jia Rong nodded with satisfaction. From the soldiers' eyes, he saw a strong fighting spirit. The Han people in the Xianbei tribe also looked fierce. They had been oppressed by Xianbei for many years, and they only had endless hatred for Xianbei in their hearts.
.
"Zilong, you lead a scouting team of one hundred people to spy on the Xianbei people ten miles away." Jia Rong ordered.
"Others, follow me to places where there are Xianbei tribes. If you encounter Xianbei people, kill them!" Jia Rong yelled.
"Kill, kill, kill..." the soldiers shouted in unison.
Jia Rong led 1,800 people to wreak havoc on this grassland. The big tribes were determined not to invade, and they would never let go of small and medium-sized tribes. Gradually, all his soldiers became cavalry. Among the Xianbei tribe,
The Han prisoners gradually formed a cavalry team of about a thousand people. In battle, these soldiers were brave and fearless of death.
After suffering a loss, Jia Rong became very cautious. The Xianbei tribe, which was heavily guarded, sent elite soldiers to remove their informants and then swarmed forward.
Within five days, news spread across the grasslands that a Han army had arrived in Xianbei, and more and more tribes were killed. In the minds of the Xianbei people, this Han army was cruel and murderous, and was always plundered.
There were very few survivors among the tribes. For a time, every tribe on the grassland was in danger.
Warriors from the clan were sent to invade the Han territory. Although each tribe had soldiers, they did not want to use them at such a time. No one knew whether the elusive Han cavalry would appear in their tribe at the next moment.
Recently, Jia Rong has been taking more and more actions on the grassland. In one day, he looted three small tribes. After a short rest, he annihilated a large Xianbei tribe of more than 10,000 people overnight.
The tribe could faintly see the light of fire.
The evil reputation of the Han army also spread to the Xianbei army as far away as Yanmen Pass. Some tribal leaders became a little restless and had fires in their homes. They had no intention of continuing to play offense and defense with the Han army at Yanmen Pass.
Murong Feng frowned. The Han army in the city could no longer support itself. Just yesterday, he even saw a gray-haired old man holding a spear appearing at the gate. Judging from the current situation, within three days, they will definitely be able to
After Yanmen Pass was captured, Murong Feng was heartbroken when he thought of the huge Han territory behind Yanmen Pass and the Han army that appeared in Xianbei.
Zhou Yi ate, drank and rested on the city wall for five consecutive days. The horn of the Xianbei attack outside the pass became the wake-up call for the Han army. The weapons were at hand, and the wet armor on his body did not affect his sleep at all.
The horns of the Xianbei people sounded. Zhou Yi cursed secretly, jumped up, picked up his spear, and shouted: "The Xianbei boys are coming to attack the city again, brothers, hurry up and get up."
The twisted Han soldiers lying on the city quickly stood up and stared at the Xianbei soldiers attacking outside the pass with bright eyes.
After twenty consecutive days of fierce fighting, half of the Han troops at the pass had been lost. The young and strong men organized voluntarily in Guanzhong also appeared at the pass to help the officers and soldiers defend the city. These inexperienced people suffered heavy casualties.
Yanmen Pass is a natural barrier. The Han army lost more than a thousand people, but left Xianbei soldiers several times their own permanently outside Yanmen Pass.
Today, the Xianbei people's attack was particularly fierce. Five thousand troops were invested for the first time. Zhou Yi worked hard and led fifty personal guards, constantly wandering around the pass, directing the soldiers to fight.
When Xianbei people climbed onto the city wall, Zhou Yi led his guards to attack them.
The supplies in Guanzhong were almost exhausted, and the huge wooden rocks were gone. Zhou Yi ordered the people in Guanzhong to move all the door panels and usable supplies to Guanzhong. Seeing that the Han army was trying their best to defend the city, the people cooperated very well. Some people's
The home was even demolished, and the stone door panels were removed. Zhou Yi made it very clear that after the Xianbei people entered the customs, not only their home was lost, but their lives were also lost.
The people in Guanzhong voluntarily sent meals and vegetables to the soldiers in the pass, which really moved the Han soldiers. Although the battle to defend the city was very hard, thinking that behind Yanmen Pass was the homeland of the Han people, they fought desperately again and again.
Groups of people from the city appeared at the gate, bringing arrows and other items to the defenders. For many days, the people in the city also gained experience in the battle. For example, after climbing the city wall, they could not stand up straight and walk, but had to bend down.
Walk to avoid being hit by arrows fired by Xianbei soldiers.
Seeing the people behind the gate, Zhou Yi felt a surge of warmth in his chest. He roared and attacked a Xianbei soldier who had just climbed onto the city wall.
"General, be careful!"
Zhou Yi's mind was a little drowsy. The successive battles made his vision always blurred unconsciously. He turned around hurriedly after hearing this.
I saw a Han soldier standing behind Zhou Yi, a spear piercing his body, and blood dripping down the tip of the spear.
Zhou Yi roared, stabbed the Xianbei soldier to death, and then hugged the Han soldier's body, his eyes blurred.
If you have seen Iron Cavalry, remember to collect it and vote if you can. A monthly ticket is of course better, thank you.
