When birds of prey are about to strike, they fly low and fold their wings; when beasts of prey are about to strike, they bow down with their ears muzzled.
——"Six Taoists·Martial Tao"
Huang Hua, the prefect of Jiuquan, had never read Jiang Taigong's "Six Tao", but he knew that if he wanted to ambush and perform meritorious deeds, he must first show his weakness. After seeing the death camp belonging to Zheng Pu appearing in the Han army camp,
, he felt that things were too bizarre, and suddenly realized many strange things.
Just like the same, since the Han army had mobilized all the death battalions garrisoned at the Manyin City Fortress, and Wei Yan had sufficient troops, why only Guan Xing was left with 3,000 soldiers to contain and defend the fortress? Guan Xing was after the father of Bashu, and was appointed by the Prime Minister of Shu
Zhuge Liang is very important, how can Wei Yan put him in despair!
Secondly, the war has lasted for three hours, why did Ma Dai’s troops, who were on the side to support them, not break out of the battle?
Given the great reputation of the Xiliang cavalry in the past, Huang Hua did not think that the 6,000 Hexi cavalry dispatched by Jia Xu could leave Ma Dai helpless and not even have the chance to enter the battlefield.
Also, Yang Fu sent military information about the attack on Wuwei.
In just over ten days, more than ten Haoyou or Qianghu tribesmen were attacked!
Since the seventh month of autumn, the Jiangwei tribe and the Xianbei Tuoba tribe have been chasing Juechen and fighting in the desert. Three months have passed, and they still have enough energy to follow the desert to attack more than ten families in Wuwei County?
After a series of fierce battles, not to mention the fatigue of the soldiers, even the horses were so fat that they were unable to gallop!
Many strange things came together, and Huang Hua sensed an ominous meaning: the soldiers who rebelled against Shu and came to Jincheng were actually aiming at Hexi!
Therefore, he glanced at the battlefield where the outcome was still unclear, and then quietly left the battle with his bodyguards in panic.
In his haste, he even ignored the infantrymen under his command who were attacking the enemy.
After all, since he was sure that the Han army was setting up an ambush, the infantry became a burden when escaping from the battlefield. Only the two thousand cavalry under his command were the guarantee for him to return to Jiuquan County.
Regardless of others' surprise, Huang Hua walked quickly in panic.
After more than a hundred steps, they found the Kewu tribe who was ordered by Jia Xu to lead the cavalry to dismount and fight on foot. In this attack, the two thousand cavalrymen belonging to him were temporarily placed under the control of the Kewu tribe.
"Administrator Jiang, quickly order the soldiers to mount their horses and return to camp!"
When he saw his riding commander, Huang Hua gave the order without waiting for him to salute.
Governor Jiang was Huang Hua's confidant.
Although he knew that this order was contrary to the general order of Hexi Governor Jia Xu, and that he was vaguely suspected of betraying friendly forces, he still accepted the order loudly and carried it out as he wished.
This incident also alarmed Ke Wu.
In other words, when Huang Hua drove his horse into the military formation, he had already strode over to find out what happened.
Ke Wu and Huang Hua have a good personal relationship.
When Geyin Ke Wu first moved his clan to Hexi, Huang Hua sent envoys to meet him.
Needless to say, the reason was that in order to fight against the Zhang family in Dunhuang, they wanted to invite the Kewu tribe to form an alliance. And the interests were clearly divided: if the Zhang family in Dunhuang were to be destroyed in the future, Xihai County (Juyan's vassal state) would belong to Kewu, and Dunhuang would
The county returned to Huanghua.
At that time, Ke Wu, who was still relying on Jia Xu's breathing, would naturally not agree.
However, the exchanges between the two became increasingly frequent.
Therefore, Huang Hua did not find a random excuse to deal with it, but directly stated all his speculations.
When Ke Wu heard this, he was shocked.
So he went with him.
He knew that if they were defeated, many Hexi generals would be safe if they surrendered, but he, who had previously collaborated with Guo Huai to murder nearly ten thousand Han troops, would not be pardoned by the Han army.
As for this move, it violates General Jia Xu’s order.
never mind.
After this battle, even if Jia Xu escaped and returned to Hexi, he would not have the strength to tell him what to do.
Therefore, a surprising scene appeared on the battlefield.
The outcome has not been decided, and the advantage is still there. However, Jia Xu, Pang Hui and others are fighting bloody battles in the front, but Huang Hua and Ke Wu in the rear are leading their direct descendants to flee in a hurry.
It also made Hu Bo Juzizhi, another supervisor of the cavalry, aware of it.
Unable to help but be filled with doubts, he immediately ordered his subordinates to stop for the time being.
I plan to send someone to inquire about the reason for Huang Hua's withdrawal and to report to Jia Xu what happened after the formation.
But soon, he also ordered his tribesmen to mount their horses immediately and join Huang Hua and Ke Wu in fleeing.
Because he saw, behind him, there was a large banner embroidered with the character "Han" facing the wind. Farther away, there were banners embroidered with "Zheng", "Yan", "Wang", "Zhang" and so on floating from the ground one after another.
Coming in an encirclement manner.
Behind the fortress, the faint sound of horse hoofbeats could be heard, and it seemed that Ma Dai's three thousand Xiliang cavalry were also approaching.
If he doesn't run away, his bones will be buried here.
right!
The 30,000 Han troops hiding in the west of Stone Mountain finally arrived.
The reason why the Guanxing tribe fought fiercely for more than three hours before the Han army arrived was because the infantry was not marching very fast, and Zheng Pu had to spare time to let Liao Hua lead the army to occupy the passage to the west of Wushaoling to avoid Hexi.
The coalition forces escaped.
However, it's not too late to arrive now.
"Kill Ni!"
"Reviving the Han Dynasty!"
When various units of the Han army entered the battlefield and began to declare their belief in fighting to the death, the situation of the war suddenly reversed.
The soldiers of the Guanxing tribe, who were outnumbered and had been fighting fiercely for a long time, had great morale. They all shouted "reinforcements have arrived", and their faintly tired bodies were once again filled with infinite energy.
Liu Lin, who was in charge of 500 heavy infantry, also ordered to stop the offensive and form a formation to fight.
He and his soldiers were already out of breath.
Even if the death battalion is the last to join the battle, the heavy armor will protect them while they move forward, and it will also inhibit the fighting time, making it difficult to last.
The soldiers in Hexi who were attacking the enemy also heard the movement from behind, so when they looked back, everyone was in panic, and their morale collapsed.
Some ignored the generals' scoldings and ran like wolves, trying to escape as soon as possible; some looked around blankly, as if wondering why so many Han troops came quietly and suddenly.
Jia Xu also stopped attacking.
Watching quietly, the Han troops in red and black military uniforms were like long worms snaking around, their eyes full of despair.
Then, he closed his eyes and sighed loudly.
I didn't worry about where the Han army came from.
Because the war situation has been decided at this moment, and it will be useless to dwell on it any longer.
He also ignored the urgent request from Qudu, the personal guard, that he should take advantage of the chaos on the battlefield to escape immediately.
Because he had nowhere to escape.
The 30,000 Hexi Allied Forces were defeated in one battle. Even if he escaped back to Wuwei County, his prestige was completely lost and his people were distraught. In the end, when the Han army followed him, he was unable to save himself and was struck by a sword!
Why go to all the trouble?
When he was over fifty years old, he spent half his life fighting, and then he ended up defeated and dead.
"That's it for now, you can do whatever you want."
Opening his eyes again, Jia Xu's voice was calm, and after giving instructions to the bodyguards who were guarding him, he walked to stand under the banner with the character "Jia", adjusted his appearance, and quietly waited for the end to come.
He was calm and did not want to do anything in vain.
Pang Hui, who is still young, does not want to die here.
It is not that he is afraid of death, but that his long-cherished wish has not been fulfilled and he is unwilling to do so.
However, when he looked around the battlefield, he found that he had no way to escape.
Not only was the empty camp in the rear a large banner of the Han army, but because he broke into the formation too deeply, his troops were also damaged a lot, and they were no longer able to fight back and fight their way out.
Therefore, he gritted his teeth.
Ke Wu, who had once been his brother and vowed to live and die together, could no longer be found on the battlefield!
If the cavalry under the command of Ke Wu thought of friendship and suddenly rushed to help him escape from the east of Wushaoling back to the Hexi Corridor, they could also escape before the Han army completed the encirclement!
This unrighteous Qiang thief is just like a beast!
