Royal road

Chapter 175

"Hold the formation! Hold tight! Don't mess up your position! They won't be able to attack!" In the formed phalanx, the bandit soldier Xiaoshuai shouted loudly.

They have been entrenched in the mountains and forests of Qiyang County for more than two years, and they have gathered more than 3000 horses.With the local Qiang, Xiongnu and Di people as the backbone, there are also many refugees, and the combat power is really not weak.Taking advantage of the chaos of the Xiongnu, they plundered the county government, robbed food and robbed people, and they were very powerful.However, no matter how noisy they are, they are still in the territory of Leping Kingdom. How come a bunch of Shangdang officers and soldiers came to encircle them now? !

What's more terrible is that these Shangdang soldiers are terrifying!

The young handsome in the team kept shouting, wanting the team to be more stable.There are mostly cavalry in front of them, and it is not convenient to use them in a land with many mountains and forests like Shenyang.As long as they stabilized their formation, those precious cavalrymen would not dare to rush forward.

However, the team of fine cavalry directly in front did not show the appearance of charging hard.Instead, they drew their bows and set up their arrows, galloped to the front of the formation like hunting, and shot arrows.Where did the bandits get their armor? Just riding and shooting can make them mess up.If this stalemate continues, people will be shot and killed before the formation is broken!

Do you want to continue to defend, or just run away?The handsome man gritted his teeth: "Hold it! Hold up your shield! They dare not rush in! Reinforcements are coming soon!"

Who doesn't have cavalry?Their cavalry is also a ruthless character in the mountains and forests.If it comes, these officers and soldiers who will be able to kill will be fucked!

But he thought so, but his son Lang didn't have that much courage and resilience.When the Jingqi in front of them turned again and rushed towards them, the trembling bandit soldiers finally couldn't restrain themselves and flinched back with their crude knives and guns.This retreat seemed to have opened a gap in the middle of the iron plate. Those cavalrymen who seemed to be leisurely holding bows had a fierce look in their eyes.When they were less than a hundred steps away from the camp, the horse ran forward.No effort, no stagnation, just rushed straight to the army formation!

The confrontation between the two armies, especially the battle between infantry and cavalry, relies on blood and bravery.If the infantry is tough and can stand still, not many cavalry will be willing to charge with their horses.But once the army's morale is shaken and they show fatigue, the wolf-like cavalry will immediately rush forward, tear open the gap, and tear the army formation to pieces!

How do these bandit soldiers who have not undergone formal military training understand that just one step back will determine the outcome of life and death!

The wolf-like Jingqi rushed into the team, the light of the knife flickered, and the flesh and blood flew everywhere.The little handsome couldn't stop his subordinates from fleeing at all, and was so angry that he went crazy.Where did their own cavalry go!

Less than five miles away, another fierce fight is also going on.In order to help their sons and daughters, the bandits galloped on their horses, wishing they could have wings!But they failed to reach the battlefield, and another team of officers and soldiers rushed out diagonally and stopped their thousand horse team!

"Kill! Give it all to me!" the leader of the Qiang people with a beard shouted loudly.

He is the chief commander of this group of bandits, and he is also a very courageous and fierce man with strong martial arts skills.If they were not proficient in riding and shooting, and also cunning, how could they build such a huge bandit army?

Therefore, even if he is ambushed, he is not afraid.Instead, he must get angry and order a deadly battle!They are all cavalry, and their numbers are very similar, so what is there to be afraid of?Just kill it!

But today, what he encountered was not those weak Jin troops.

Like a tiger descending the mountain, the cavalry rushed in.All the sharp and bright long knives, in the sound of trampling horseshoes, are like ghosts urging their lives!Where did such martial arts come from?Almost everyone can be his vanguard handsome!What's even more frightening is that they didn't fight alone, but in groups of three or four, cooperating as one!

Even if the bandits are all fierce, they can't withstand such a battle!

"Kill! Come out with me!" No better than others, just fighting for a moment, the bandit leader knew he was invincible.To continue fighting like this is just to risk one's life in vain.It's better to escape from Shengtian first, and then make plans!

However, before he and his confidant could take two steps, a big white horse stopped in front of him.That horse is a fine foal, one head taller than ordinary horses.The person on the horse is even more cold-faced in black armor, with a menacing aura.A pair of gray-blue eyes, as cold as a knife, murderous!

This is the enemy general!In a blink of an eye, the bandit leader came to his senses, and without any hesitation, he led his team to rush forward.There are more than a dozen confidantes under his command, while the opponent has only three or five personal soldiers.As long as you kill the enemy chief, you can get a glimmer of life!

In terms of brute force, what he used was a [-]-jin mixed iron spear.One shot can leave a hole the size of a bowl in the enemy's body!Now waving it desperately, it's like the wind and thunder moving together!With one enemy three, and with such a sharp weapon, why not kill the enemy and get off the horse? !

But that vicious and ferocious blow like a poisonous dragon did not fall on the enemy.The blue-eyed general stood aside, let the iron spear pass, and with a backhand knife, he eliminated the besieged person.

Is this trying to pick up soft persimmons?The gangster grinned angrily.Keep your hands on, and sweep with your gun!The big white horse that the enemy was sitting on seemed to understand human nature, and when the horse's hoof made a mistake, it jumped out three steps sideways.This move immediately made the spear miss again, but the opponent took another life in his hand.

Can't go on like this!The bandit leader shouted: "Dianwu, Donghao, surround him!"

The two riders rushed over in response, and the three finished writing, surrounding the blue-eyed Jie man in the middle.Iron spears, sabers, and long hammers were swung at the same time, like a net like a curtain, enveloping the entire body of the enemy general!

Can!These words are in the hearts of the three of them.However, the white horse let out a long hiss and raised its hind hooves.With one kick, the horse behind him neighed miserably and threw off its master.On the front, Jie threw the long knife in his hand into the enemy's chest.On the side, a mixed iron gun pierced his shoulder.

bingo!Commander Qiang was overjoyed.Although he lost two henchmen, he hit the enemy!However, at the next moment, a strange sharp pain rushed up.He looked down the sore spot.I saw that in the empty left hand of the Jie man, there was an extra spear, with an iron rod and red tassels, and the shiny spear head was buried in his thick black neck.

The spear shook, and blood spattered.The bandit leader fell off his horse.

The invincible general, who can win a complete victory with one enemy and three, did not look at the corpse, but said coldly: "Let's form!"

Following this brief order, all the Shangdang cavalry began to gather, their weapons and the murderous intent in their eyes also merged into one place.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

The sound of hooves rolled, and the sound of killing soared into the sky.



"Captain, you may need two stitches for this injury." Seeing the wound on Captain Yi's shoulder, the nurse accompanying the army frowned.This should be a gunshot wound, but luckily the wound was not deep.If it is replaced with a three-edged blade, and it goes a few inches deeper, I am afraid it will hurt the muscles and bones.

Sitting down at the table, Yiyan said coldly: "Do it."

Stitching is no easy job, either.The nurse took out a gourd from her side, opened the lid, and the smell of alcohol overflowed.However, what was poured out of the gourd was liquid like clear water.This is the spirit of wine specially formulated in the army, as long as it is used before the stitches are opened, ulcers can be avoided.However, the medicinal properties are strong, and when applied on the wound, it is like a knife scorching fire. If it is drunk into the stomach, it may cause the intestines to rot.

Carefully dipped a steamed white cloth with alcohol, and the nurse wiped off the blood near the wound with the cloth.This should have been excruciatingly painful, but the shoulders of the person beside him twitched slightly, not to mention the pain, and even their complexion did not change a single bit.

The captain seems to be more terrifying these days.The nurse swallowed, took out a needle and thread, and began to sew.The thread is sheep intestines, and the needle is a silver needle, but it still makes people's teeth sore and hairs stand on end when they are sewn into the flesh.He has sewed the wounds of many people with his own hands, crying for his father and mother, and there are not a few who can't hold them down.But now it was sewn, the man did not move at all, it seemed that what was sewn was not flesh and blood, but the clothes on his body.

Don't dare to delay, the nurse quickly finished the work in hand, wiped it with alcohol again, wrapped it in medicine, and retreated.Yiyan didn't even look at the treated wound, casually picked up the outer shirt at the side, put it on, and walked out of the tent.

Outside, more than a dozen bandits were bound together, and most of them were wounded.These are the handsome leaders of the bandit army, and they need to be further interrogated.

When Wang Long saw Yiyan, he immediately stepped forward: "Yingzheng, that's all the bandit leaders. The old camp will have another trial!"

Yiyan ignored him, walked up to a bandit leader, and asked, "Where is the old camp in the mountain?"

The old camp is the place where the cottage hides valuables, and only the generals in the center of the village can know.The man snorted: "You are also a barbarian, why should you work for the Jin dog?!"

He used Hu language.Although Qiang, Di, and Jie all have their own languages, but the Huns are powerful, so all the Hus can also speak a few words of the Huns, so they are called the Hu language.Both Yiyan and Wang Long could understand these words, Wang Long's face darkened, and just as he was about to explode, a silver light flashed in front of him.

That handsome guy's head rolled on the ground, the blood in his chest splashed out for dozens of steps before he stopped.

Wang Long immediately shut his mouth.In the past few days, his family Yingzheng's temper seemed to be getting worse and worse, and even he didn't dare to speak nonsense.It seems that a big victory still didn't make the killing god much happier.

Without stopping, Yiyan came to another person again, with the same question: "Where is the old camp in the mountains?"

With someone from before as an example, that person didn't dare to be rampant. He swallowed his saliva and said, "If you want me to say it, you have to let me go first..."

Before he finished speaking, Jianfeng had already kissed his neck.The blood spattered wet Yiyan's clothes, trickling down.

A few more steps forward, Yiyan stood in front of another person: "Where is the old camp?"

The man probably didn't know, so he begged for mercy tremblingly: "Master, please spare me! I know those leaders well, you can ask..."

He didn't have a chance to say the third sentence.Another body fell to the ground.

In the camp, the silence was like a chilling cicada.No one dared to speak again.It seems that what the killing god wants is not the answer at all, but their lives.

Taking another step, before Yiyan could reach the next person, that person collapsed, crying and shouting: "In Zuoling! In Zuoling Mountain, I can lead the way!"

The feet in the military boots stopped.With a wave of the blade, Yiyan shook off the dirty blood on it: "Take them to fight the old camp, and conquer it today."

What else did Wang Long dare to say?Take orders quickly and retreat.

On the side, the messenger came forward tremblingly: "Captain, Zhan County is here to envoy."

Zhan County is the seat of Leping Kingdom, so the county should have sent someone here.Yiyan didn't change the bloody clothes, just walked into the camp.

Seeing his appearance, the thief Sun Cao who came to discuss the matter didn't know where to put his eyes. He quickly bowed his head and said: "I don't know that Captain Yi is coming, but I'm not welcoming you. There are bandits in the mountains. Captain He Lao bother..."

The meaning hidden in his words is very clear.This is over the limit, even if there are bandits in Leping, there is no need for the Shangdang to send troops to suppress them!

Yi Yan said indifferently: "The mountain bandits attacked and harassed the Shangdang, so they should pay it off. The city of Shenyang is already under the control of our army, so Sun Cao doesn't have to worry about it."

What?The county has been laid down?Sun thief Cao's head was sweating even more, and he stammered: "This, how does this make..."

"Food and grass will also be brought in from Shangdang. After a while, peace will be restored. Doesn't the internal history want Leping to eliminate banditry?"

This is of course the highest official in charge of Leping Kingdom, Jiang Huan.As a confidant of the internal history, how could Sun thief Cao not know what he was thinking.Soldiers and bandits are terrible, but it is even more terrible without this neighbor.But now, is there any use in protesting?Even if it is reported to the imperial court, they are only here to suppress bandits.They did not attack the counties of Leping, nor did they plunder their cities, food and grass.Who cares about such nosy business!

The mouth grows and closes again, and Sun Thief Cao finally squeezed out a sentence: "Where is it. Your army came from a long way, and you also wiped out the harm for me, and you will be a reward army. I will report the internal history and welcome the general... ..."

He didn't dare to call him the captain anymore, and he called the general directly.

Yiyan didn't show any expression because of this concession, and still had a stern face: "Sun Cao is polite."

After chatting hastily for a few more words, Sun Thief Cao didn't dare to stop any longer, and hurriedly withdrew.

In the camp, there are no more disturbing voices.Yiyan slightly closed his eyes.His heart seemed to be split in two.Half of them were calm and calm, handling the war and political affairs to the exacting degree; while the other half were silent, as if they had fallen into some kind of bottomless void.

The lord is getting married.She married a daughter of the Wang family.

A noble lady who cannot be rejected or underestimated.

Later, he will have more concubines.Those beauties who are worthy of him and can speak softly in his arms.He will also have children, full of children and grandchildren, with luxuriant branches and leaves.You can add laughter to the empty Liang Mansion, you can be a general and a prime minister, and help your father and brother take charge of this huge family business.Just like any rising powerful family, it has become a huge family that cannot be ignored.

This is what the Lord deserves.It is also the best way to stabilize Shangdang and even merge the state.

Reason, he understands.But that hole, no one filled it for him.

Even so, the rational side has not disappeared.Like clinging to the straw in the torrent, he couldn't let go, and couldn't let himself fall into the abyss.It was all he had.Captain of the Shangdang, commander of the Liang family, and the Lord's most trusted confidant.

In this role, he can do his best.

In the chest, there was the sound of ice flowing.Yiyan opened his eyes again, and walked out of the tent.



At the same time, a large army sailed into Tongguan, heading towards the Hongnong camp not far away.This is the royal driver of the emperor, and also the team that the general Qi Hong returned from victory.

After hastily sweeping the city of Chang'an, he didn't dare to stop. He left the Xianbei soldiers who were still plundering the treasured women, and took the lead to lead [-] soldiers and horses to escort the emperor out of Guanzhong.This is the spoil that the King of the East China Sea is most looking forward to, and it is also the guarantee for him to be promoted to a higher position. How can Qi Hong dare to neglect it?

But after all, he is a vulgar person, and he didn't gather all the retinue of the emperor, and he didn't even find the imperial chariot.He just got an ox cart, loaded it with the emperor and left.The other princes and nobles didn't even have cars, so they all walked.Because of this group of trash, it took seven days to walk from Chang'an to Tongguan.Even Qi Hong led countless troops, and he became a little annoyed.

After arriving at Hongnong Daying, they will be able to assign cars to these wastes.Sima Teng, who is just waiting in the camp, is not a good person.When attacking Chang'an, I didn't see him rushing to the front. At this time, he came to pick the fruit instead?Qi Hong almost wanted to sneer twice.But he is the younger brother of the king of the East China Sea, so he can't offend him.

Fortunately, in Chang'an, there is really a lot of money to be made.Riding on the horse, Qi Hong casually thought about how to arrange the looted things and how much they were worth.At this moment, a voice pierced through the thick formation and reached Qi Hong's ears.

"There are enemy cavalry!"

Raising his head suddenly, Qi Hong was horrified to find that a rolling dark cloud appeared in the sky.That is cavalry, there are 4000 people!Just the smoke and dust it brings up has the potential to block out the sun!

How could there be enemy cavalry here?What is Hongnong Daying doing again?Why didn't the scouts report!

Even after many battles, the general still panicked and shouted angrily: "What are you still doing? Escort! Escort!"

He is with the emperor!If there is a loss, no amount of head is enough to pay for it!

Hearing this order, everyone hurriedly moved.However, he is a proud soldier who has won the victory, and because of the looting, the military discipline has been disrupted. How can he react in a short while?

Like a pack of ferocious wolves, that team of Qingqi ruthlessly charged into the thin camp, and charged towards the ox cart they guarded!



Liu Yao never thought that such a good thing would happen to him.

After leading his troops into Hongnong, he heard a piece of news.Now that the big tent has not been withdrawn, the purpose of staying in Hongnong is to welcome Yujia.And the emperor's chariot has already left Chang'an.

What a godsend!Without the slightest hesitation, Liu Yao made a new plan, instead of harassing the camp, he started from the back and robbed food and grass.Now there is a shortage of food everywhere, and there are many bandits along the way.When something like this happened, Sima Teng would not dare to be negligent, and immediately sent troops to rectify the rear.

And after disturbing the big camp and taking Sima Teng's attention away.Liu Yao waved his troops and marched towards Tongguan.No matter how you go, you always have to go through Tongguan when you leave the pass.If they set up an ambush nearby, they will definitely be able to wait for their worthy prey.

As a result, it was like a blessing from God.There are only 8000 people in the guards.There is no big tent to respond, and there is no increased security.These people are like naked lambs walking in the wilderness.

How can such a prey be let go?

Following Liu Yao's order, three thousand Qingqi rushed towards the enemy camp.Like tearing apart a brocade, the hastily built front line was broken.The resistance of those Jin troops was not enough to stop this fine cavalry who was like a tiger and a wolf.Where the horses pass by, there are only corpses!

But Liu Yao's mind is abnormal.He didn't target the Chinese army, he didn't pay attention to the commander's flag, he waved his troops and rushed towards the bullock cart with the emperor's banner on it.

Guarding soldiers?kill!Blocking officials?kill!Personal attendant?kill!

He chopped down the back of the young and beardless young man wearing a beam crown who was standing in front of the car with a single knife.A middle-aged man with a white face and thin beard and shivering body was dragged out of the car by soldiers.

Tongtian crown, black jieke, crimson gauze gown.Besides today's day, who else would dare to dress like this?

"General!" The soldier shouted excitedly, "It's the Emperor of Jin!"

"How can there be two masters in the world? Kill!" Liu Yao ordered without hesitation.

The soldier didn't hesitate when he heard this, he swung the sharp knife in his hand regardless of the man's cries and struggles.Hearing a chirp, blood splashed five steps away.Its color is crimson, no different from ordinary people.

It really worked!Liu Yao laughed loudly, and said to the soldiers who were still fighting endlessly: "Emperor Jin is dead, let's retreat!"

All the Xiongnu soldiers howled and rushed out of the formation.The Jin army, which was originally in chaos, has no power to stop it at this moment.Qi Hong, who rushed forward desperately, saw the blood-soaked bullock cart, groaned, vomited blood, and fell off the horse.

On the same day, the bad news followed the remnant soldiers and rushed into the Hongnong camp.

The author has something to say:

Sima Zhong, Emperor Hui of Jin Dynasty, finally received the lunch box.According to history, he died in November of the first year of Guangxi, that is, more than half a year later. According to legend, he was poisoned by Sima Yue.But now, the Xiongnu withdrew from Bingzhou early and came to Sizhou to lay the foundation, and it happened by chance.According to the official history, Emperor Hui of Jin traveled from Chang'an to Luoyang in an ox cart and the ministers walked on foot.With this configuration, how tight can the defense be?And a strong general like Liu Wei will not let go of the opportunity.

The butterfly's wings flap more and more powerfully, and history will be derailed.
