Han Hai Tang Ergui
Chapter 798
Chapter 798 Vegetable chicken group destroyed (the lion and leopard are coming)
(The date in the previous chapter was wrong. Guo Guangyi surrounded Hushui City on July 25, not September 25.)
The battle in Wuzongga Chishan is over. How could the 10,000+ Uguz herdsmen who were chased and had nowhere to go to heaven or earth be able to defeat Bai Congxin's [-] elite cavalry.
Not to mention the difference in equipment between the two sides, it is these grassland cavalry who have been brainwashed for several years and trained with a large number of rewards and military merit systems. When fighting, they really regard death as home.
Nine surnamed Ugus Dayinale led a thousand personal guards holding long spears in formation on the hillside, and there were thousands of archers behind them.
As a result, a hundred warriors from Wanhu in Xiajiasi wore double-layered armor and rushed in desperately. In less than a quarter of an hour, Dayinale's head was chopped off and presented to Bai Congxin.
Bai Congxin deliberately did not restrain military discipline. He needed such a primitive brutality full of animal nature to calm down the rage accumulated by these terrifying upright apes during the more than 2000-mile march.
Another purpose is to set a standard for today's combat.
If the nine surnamed Oguz were unwilling to surrender this time, he would never have issued such a brutal military order, but who dared them to say that Tengger would not be the incarnation of the Supreme Heaven.
The former is a matter of interests, while the latter is a matter of principle, and must be dealt with heavily.
"Let the children enjoy themselves for two days. After two days, 2000 people will be left to guard, and the rest will have one man and two horses. They must rush to Talas within ten days!"
Bai Congxin gave the order in a sharp voice, it was still [-] miles away from Talas, and it was more than [-] miles a day, not too little, but not too much.
Naturally, this is also the reason why Bai Congxin wanted to kill nearly [-] adult males among the nine surnamed Oguz.
The army is about to raid Guo Guangyi in Talas, how can there be tens of thousands of young men behind!
. . . .
At the Sanshan Pass, Hu Guang was gnawing on the leg of lamb leisurely and contentedly. Apart from those on guard, the rest of the soldiers also seized the time to eat, drink, rest or arrange their armor and weapons, even Chi Tian of the Gray Wolf Department did the same.
Everyone understands in their hearts, not to mention whether it is dangerous for them to rescue like this, Suiye has caused such a big rebellion, and those who are really determined to treat themselves as Tang children have already been rescued, and those in the distance belong to those who do not want to be barbarians. But if you don't want to resist, whether you can save it or not depends entirely on your mood.
Moreover, everyone is very clear in their hearts, if these people are saved, how will His Majesty explain?After doing such a thing, you still want to get out of your body?
Therefore, everyone enjoyed the last peace before the war with peace of mind.
"Boom! Boom!" The sound of the war drums seemed louder and then softer, but the hissing of horses became more and more obvious. At the end, the sound of shouting and killing in the distance was so loud that it suppressed the sound of the war drums. Guo Guangyi began to urge the army to storm Hushui City again.
Guo Tianfang was squatting beside Hu Guang. He hated those people in Hushui City, not because of their retreat. Guo Guangyi could not have staged a mutiny at his grandfather Guo Xuancheng's funeral so easily.
His father, uncle and two uncles were all killed in this mutiny. After fleeing to the Gray Wolf Department, they also took the lives of the ninth uncle Guo Xuanchao and Chi Tian's father.
"How many days has it been?" Hu Guangzai asked slowly after carefully eating the honey-roasted leg of lamb in his hand.
Guo Tianfang quickly replied: "Mr. Hu, it's been ten days!"
"Hey!" Hu Guang grabbed a handful of sand and wiped the grease off his hands, and looked up in surprise.
"It's really tenacious! Among their 4 people, there are only a few thousand strong, and so many people are crowded in the city to eat and drink less, and they can resist Guo Guangyi's fierce attack of 5 people for ten days. It's interesting."
Li Jixie snorted disdainfully when he heard this, "They're all scumbags. If Ken worked so hard in Suiye back then, even if he couldn't defend the city, he could at least keep Guo Jiushu from escaping to Khotan. Why risk your life now! "
Hu Guang wiped his hands clean, er, this level of cleanliness is of course his personal standard.
Seeing a bowl of honey rice in Li Jixie's hand, Hu Guang snatched it without hesitation, "Go and ask Mr. Yao, how many people are left in the city?"
Li Jixi glanced at Hu Guang resentfully, and ran away angrily.
Yao Yuanfu ordered people to build three watchtowers on the hill near Hushui City, so that the soldiers with good eyes could keep watch over them.
Before Li Jixuan ran to the watchtower, he saw Yao Yuanfu's relatives riding their horses towards Daying. When he saw Li Jixuan, he immediately shouted, "Hurry up and report to the supervisor. Hu Shuicheng suffered heavy casualties. If you can't hold on." gone."
. . . .
In fact, Hu Shuicheng could hold on for a while, but it was pretty miserable.
Luo Dingzhong's hand drooped unnaturally, but fortunately it was not a fracture but a dislocation, and soon a doctor helped him set the bone.
Puguquan leaned against a pile of dead bodies, his face was pale, his eyes were wide open and he looked up at the sky, a few flies were crawling around his face, but he didn't move, obviously he had been dead for a long time.
Guo Guangbi was trying his best to repair his smashed iron helmet, his legs were blood red.
Before that, he tried to raise his leg several times, but his right leg seemed to be completely numb, only the left leg still felt a burst of tingling pain.
Hushui City is not big, and it can accommodate several thousand people on weekdays. Now 4 people have squeezed in. Since three days ago, except for the young and strong who fought on the city wall, the rest of the people can only eat one wild vegetable cake a day. , As for water, they can only drink the urine of the combatants.
As for the urine, there was not much of it, because the young adults on the city wall were also given a fixed amount of drinking water, and plus they sweated a lot during the fierce fighting, there was not much urine at all.
Although the mercenaries under Guo Guangyi's command receded like a tide, no one cheered at the head of Hushui City, because a huge gap was hit in the left section of the city wall.
Luo Dingzhong himself rushed up to block the gap just now, and his hand was dislocated in the fight. Now, it is very likely that as long as the people outside the city charge again, they will not be able to hold it.
"Enough is enough, it should be enough, if we don't come, we will all die!" A young man beside Luo Dingzhong murmured.
There are more than 6000 young men in Hushui City. Now I don't know if there are [-] left, which has far exceeded half of the battle loss rate.
A painful smile appeared on the corner of Luo Dingzhong's mouth, he knew that Boss Hu would come soon.
Not only did they pay the price, but after the ten-day bloody battle, they, who could only be regarded as armed herdsmen and auxiliary soldiers, have been trained in this cruel fight. It is an elite fighter.
Judging from Manager Hu's leisurely attitude, the goal of the sage is not simply to put down Guo Guangyi's rebellion, nor is it just because of Guo Luan'er's affairs. Everything the sage does should be aimed at Saman Persia.
This is a powerful and powerful country occupying half of the river and half of Persia. A comparison shows that the Khotan Jin Kingdom is known as the Anxi Shengguo, but it has a population of less than 90. Adding the more than 150 in Beiting, the total But [-] million.
As for Saman Persia, there are a full 400 million people. If it is not completely defeated and dismembered, what occupies the river, Xia Junyi and the people are all empty talk.
However, Saman Persians have never entered the scope of Chinese culture. They are not only different from China, but also have different languages, customs, and beliefs.
It is not difficult to defeat such a big country, but it is quite difficult to rule, unless the court maintains a garrison of 10 to [-] people in Saman Persia for a long time.
But the price is too high. I am afraid that all the benefits obtained from Saman Persia will be fed to the [-] garrisons, and the court will not get much. It is destined that this model cannot be maintained for too long.
Is there a way to save money and effort?
Have!
Luo Dingzhong knelt down slowly toward the east, and the way to save money and effort was to use these broken leaf people.
They said it was Tang'er, but they were more familiar with the river, what did the Saman Persian people think, what did they need, what were they afraid of, and how to make them more obedient?
Even Tang'er, who has lived in Suiye for hundreds of years, understands how to introduce the Six Dharma Sect to the land of Saman Persia to replace Tianfang Sect.
With the help of these locals, it is possible to basically Sinicize Hezhong in the next 30 to [-] years.
Saints are saints and masters, and they must be able to understand their value.
"Raise the silver and white flag, pull everyone to the top of the city to beg, tell Boss Hu, we know we are wrong, and ask him to send heavenly soldiers to rescue!"
Luo Dingzhong shouted loudly, it has come to this time, it is safer to continue to resist than to plead.
Guo Guangbi gritted his teeth, moved his broken leg with difficulty, and took out the silver-white golden sun and moon flag that he had always treasured from a wooden box not far away.
It was made when Guo Xuancheng was still alive. Although the sixth uncle of the Guo family also listened to Suiye's tune and did not listen to the announcement, his purpose was still fundamentally different from Guo Guangyi's.
Guo Xuancheng just wanted to pass the position under his butt to his children and grandchildren, so that the Guo family could be Suiye County King and vassal of the court for generations. He still valued the court and the Tang Dynasty very much.
A silver-white golden sun and moon flag was hoisted at the head of Hushui City. The old and weak, women and children were all over the city wall, and countless people bowed towards the east like the tide.
"Saint, we are wrong, please show mercy!"
"I'm waiting for the death penalty, the women and children are innocent, please have mercy on the saint."
"Please come quickly, heavenly soldiers! Come quickly!"
Guo Guangbi propped his hands on the ground, crawled to Luo Dingzhong's side, and looked up at him with effort, "In Suiye, we have 4 people with six surnames, mainly you, Pu Guquan and a certain family.
When Guo thief entered Suiye, Ru Luo Dingzhong was the one who wanted to resist the most, but he was stopped by a certain and Pu Guquan.So if you survive today, you and Pu Guquan will undoubtedly die.
Today, Pugu has all died in battle, and a certain person's legs are crippled, and life is meaningless, so it's better to leave some legacy for us people, Luo Erlang, the wife and children of a certain family, please. "
Luo Dingzhong heaved a long sigh, why should he have known today!
"Brother Huai is smart and quick-witted, and I love him the most. He grew up with Erniang, a childhood sweetheart, let Brother Huai be my son-in-law in the future.
If the sage is kind enough to allow us to take our sins and make meritorious deeds, I heard that there are two official titles of appeasement envoy and town appeasement envoy below Duke Hou of the foreign vassal.
Among them, the town governor governs a small town of 1000 people and governs [-] people. As long as Luo Dingzhong is alive, he will definitely earn a hereditary town governor for Huai Geer. "
When Guo Guangbi heard what Luo Dingzhong said, a smile appeared on his face. He leaned against the city wall and forced a big gift to Luo Dingzhong.
After following Guo Guangbi, he yelled, stood up with his hands on the city wall, and shouted to the east: "The sinner Guo Guangbi has an unforgivable crime, and his death is not a pity. I only hope that Mr. Hu will give this Hushui city the best for the sake of his past love." Tens of thousands of people have a way out!"
After finishing speaking, without the slightest hesitation, he supported himself with both hands, and jumped down from the city wall.
At this time, Hu Guang had already arrived at the watchtower. After a few hundred steps, he saw Guo Guangbi jumping off the city wall with his own eyes, and heaved a long sigh.
Guo Guangbi can be regarded as having a relationship with him.In the broken leaf battle in the past, when the tiger knights were injured, Guo Guangbi organized people to carry them back for treatment.
man!Just don't make mistakes and go astray. Originally, he was a pioneer in Hezhong Haojilang, but today he can only lose his life with a disgraceful reputation.
"Beat the drum! Order soldiers!" Hu Guangda shouted, got on his horse, and galloped to the barracks at the head.
. . . .
In Guo Guangyi's barracks, this long-faced 'hero' had left behind shadows of his whip dancing. In the tent, several officers who were weak in combat were being beaten with blood on their backs.
"A [-]-strong army attacked a small city guarded by several thousand people, and lost more than a thousand people in ten days, but they didn't make any progress. What's the use of supporting them?"
Don't blame Guo Guangyi for being anxious, you must know the current situation, but he was determined to kill his wife and son in exchange for it.
This kind of thing, even in the river or on the grassland, is despised by people.
But the good thing is that these two places respect power, as long as you kill your wife and children but you are powerful, other people will despise you at most and dare not show it.
But if the power of killing his wife and son is not pulled up, it will be dangerous. This revenge and backlash will really come like a tide.
Moreover, at Sanshan Pass, more than [-] miles away from Hushui City, there are still [-] Zhou troops, and they are what Guo Guangyi is worried about.
"Those Tang'ers are still at Sanshan Pass?"
The confidant General Hu Lun Jian hurriedly stroked his chest and replied: "Those Tang children were afraid of King Khan's supernatural power, and dared not step out of the stronghold for ten days.
They are only more than [-] people, and the cavalry is less than [-]. After taking down Hushui City, they only need to use [-] fine cavalry to keep them in check. "
Guo Guangyi only showed a little smile on his face now. Indeed, these Tang'ers are too incompetent, and they dare not attack for ten days. It would be a bit troublesome if they flanked the people from Hushuicheng these days.
It now appears that the so-called warriors of the Han and Tang Dynasties were nothing more than bragging, and the Heavenly Soldiers that our ancestors spoke of were nothing more than rumors.
Maybe they were indeed heroic two or three hundred years ago, but now, they are just a group of cowards with empty titles.
Guo Guangyi raised his hand, and was about to tell the cavalry team monitoring Tang'er's army to cheer up, when the curtain of the tent was suddenly lifted, and an officer covered in blood rushed in.
"King Khan, the Tang army is out of camp, Zuo Duhu can't resist, please King Khan send troops to reinforce!"
Guo Guangyi just felt his head explode, Zuo Duhu has [-] cavalry, how could they be overwhelmed so quickly?
. . . .
"In ancient times, Dunhuang was full of supernatural generals, and I felt the admiration of all the tribes. Look at the Dragon Court, and Lintai has long been famous. I only hate the tribes, and it is difficult to express my love. Sooner or later, I will destroy the wolves and the tribes, and worship the holy face together."
Amidst the sound of rumbling drums, the Eight Thousand Western Army marching out of the village sang the ancient times of Dunhuang and marched forward.
Sanshan Pass was only twenty miles away from the battlefield, so Hu Guang simply let his soldiers advance in battle formation.
The central army of the main army is the [-] tiger and ben army led by Yao Yuanfu. This is the power that Zhang Tie gave Hu Guang before he set off.
If Yao Yuanfu can make a surprise attack and recover Suiye, then Hu Guang can immediately form the pro-army Zuo Hubenwei and appoint Yao Yuanfu as the pro-army Zuohu Benwei Zhonglang General.
On the left and right sides of the central army is the Shenshezhen part of the Forbidden Army led by Li Jixun.
Shenshe Town was upgraded from Zhang Tie's Shenji Battalion. The Shenji Battalion used camel whirlwind cannons at first, but in the past ten years, Zhang Zhou has never encountered a few heavy ones that need to be hit by Zhou Jun with camel whirlwind cannons. The infantry gradually became weak.
As a result, a part of the Shenji Battalion, mainly engaged in camel whirlwind cannons, was merged into the Tiangong Institute, engaged in the research of large-scale counterweight trebuchets and the preliminary testing of artillery.
The other part was expanded and became the Forbidden Army Shenshe Town and the Pro-Army Left and Right Sheshengwei.
As can be seen from the names, these three teams specialize in bows and crossbows.
What Li Jixun controlled was only a part of Shenshe Town, with 2000 people.
The 1000 people on the left side of the army like to wear tuanhua brocade robes outside the ring lock armor. They are composed of Uyghur left tent crossbowmen in Ganzhou in the past as the backbone. crossbow camp.
The 1000 people on the right side of the army are accustomed to wearing white boots, with red foreheads inlaid with silver and white borders. They were formed by the Tabai Crossbowmen of Hanhai Town originally compiled by Yan Jin. They are called the Tabai Battalion in front of the palace. There are elite among the elite who can be on duty in front of the inner palace.
And despite the fact that there are only 1000 people in the Tabai Battalion in front of the hall, half of them are armed with swords and half of them can ride and shoot.
In addition to these 5000 people, there are also [-] elite cavalry. This is the elite cavalry formed by Xiaorui from the Qiji Society of the Four States of Guasha Suyi as the backbone, and led by Chen Tingxiao, who was born in the Chen family of Yizhou.
Among the remaining 500 people, there are also [-] of Huguang's own followers, with Li Jixi as the general Yuhou.
These 200 people are all composed of Helong Xunchen's children, and they are unparalleled in bravery. If Li Jixuan hadn't been powerful in battle, and could have an equal share with the imperial warrior Murong Xin from Guazhou in the shooting ceremony, he would not be able to command at all.
The rest are Suiye natives like Chi Tian and Guo Tianfang, they came to do odd jobs, and by the way let them see the bravery of the imperial court soldiers.
With the sound of trampling horseshoes, Li Jixi rode back with one of the enemy generals under his left and right arms. When he saw Hu Guang, he laughed loudly, and then threw the two enemy generals onto the dusty ground with a plop.
"Boss, these two thieves will harass me in front of my formation. A certain person personally rode up to catch up with them and captured them alive. It's a pity that the enemy general who commanded the troops ran away."
Guo Tianfang saw that the two thieves were motionless on the ground, looked at it curiously, and immediately exclaimed.
It turned out that the two thieves had protruding eyeballs and their faces were blue and purple, and they were strangled to death.
He couldn't help but looked at Li Jixuan in horror, and killed the two thieves with his arms alone, how powerful it must be!
"Dead?" Li Jixie also widened his eyes, only to realize that the two thieves had passed away, and immediately raised his hand involuntarily, looked at his creaking nests on both sides, and muttered in his mouth.
"How could he be so ungrateful? That day when he was fighting with that thief, Murong Xinchun, someone clamped his neck, using much more force than this. Who knew that Murong Xinchun was not afraid at all, and even elbowed someone on the left rib, which almost didn't hurt. die of a certain family."
It happened that his elder brother Li Jixun passed by, and he couldn't help rolling his eyes when he heard this.
Who is Murong Xinchun? He is the cousin of Liaoyang County King Murong Xinchang. It's thicker, how can it be compared!
At this moment, there was a rush of drumbeats ahead, and the orderly waved the red pennant and galloped back and forth. It was obvious that most of the enemy troops had arrived.
With a wave of Hu Guang's hand, Li Jixie jumped onto the drum cart and beat the giant drum pulled by the carriage three times long and three short times.
Yuhou of each capital, general Yuhou, and the team heard the sound of the drum. Qi Qi ordered the guards around him to beat the small drum on his chest, and also made three long and three short sounds.
All the soldiers shouted 'Habayashi!Habayashi!Habayashi! 'Stop after repeating three times.
Then the whole army spread out on the spot, each team's captain, team deputy, and chief fireman wore armor, and the light soldiers who did not arrange armor to go into battle helped the officers put on their armor. The winding is completed and the defense is done.
At this time, the enemy army had not yet arrived, and the sound of drums became denser. The team leader, team deputy, and fire chief who had finished putting on their armor stepped forward, and the soldiers of each team returned to line up and began to put on their armor.
A conch horn sounded, and the watchman on Lu Gong's car waved a yellow flag from northeast to southwest, up and down twice.
The herald below who had been observing immediately reported to Huguang: "The enemy rides about [-] horses, and the distance is more than [-] steps. They attack in two directions, more on the right and less on the left."
Li Jixie was eager to try it immediately, even Chen Tingxiao licked his lips excitedly, but Hu Guang shook his head.
"All the left and right cavalry dismounted and hid in the formation. Chi Tian, you go, take your horses and ride on your horses, and look a little flustered."
Hu Guang wouldn't just let Chen Tingxiao and Li Jixuan go. The reason why Guo Guangyi dared to attack Hushui City in front of him was because he thought Hu Guang was timid and had few cavalry.
If we release the elite cavalry now, and let Guo Guangyi know that although he has few cavalry, all of them are cavalry queens who can serve as five-hu cavalry for one Han, then he has to run away immediately.
. . . .
Suddenly, Qiang felt something was wrong when he was still on the horse. Twelve thousand of them rode and swept over the sky, but the opposite side had only a few thousand people out of the camp, but there was no chaos at all, and they even put their spears in front very easily. There are several large formations behind the bows and crossbows.
As the number one general under Guo Guangyi's command, Hu Lun Qian's knowledge was pretty good, and he instinctively felt that the opposing army was not easy to fight.
Suddenly Lun Qian waved his hand and ordered the cavalry to disperse, and surrounded the Tang infantry cruising around two or three hundred paces, making a big noise, rolling up dust all over the sky, trying to threaten them, and also looking for openings.
The cavalry would not bump into the infantry at once, that would be courting death.
Especially in the face of such a well-organized infantry formation, one must continue to intimidate, and then find a loophole, and then sneak in through this loophole and disperse the infantry.
However, Hu Lun Qian's little trick had no effect on Zhou Jun. What a joke, the Khitan cavalry back then were fierce enough, and their threats and intimidation didn't have much effect.
When Lun Jian saw it, his heart beat even more. The layman watched the excitement and the expert watched the doorway. These Tang infantrymen were so calm when faced with the encirclement and intimidation of the cavalry, they were by no means a cowardly army.
He was about to send someone to report back to Guo Guangyi, but he saw Guo Guangyi's personal guards came to the front of the formation holding the gem-studded King Khan's silver knife, and shouted loudly: "King Khan asked you, why did you delay?"
Suddenly, when he heard it, everyone became numb.
It's just that he didn't know that after he led 1 riders as the vanguard, Guo Guangyi tried to hit Hu Shuicheng again.
As a result, good fellow, the people in the city saw that Hu Guang led the army to rescue them, and their morale was even higher. Even women and children dared to tear down the houses in the city and throw stones at the top of the city.
Warlord Guo Guangyi rushed twice and was beaten out. Frustrated with shame, Guo Guangyi used his remaining rationality to give up the idea of continuing to attack the city.
These "cowardly Tang soldiers" who were going to turn around and fight out of the stronghold first, and then starved all the people in Hushui City to death in the city, so they hurriedly urged Hu Lun Qiang to come forward.
Suddenly Lun Qianzheng was hesitating, and he heard cheers from the front. It turned out that the rangers in front had caught a group of Tang cavalry who were fleeing in panic, and they were beating them up.
Could it be that the calmness just now was an illusion, maybe I didn't see it clearly because I was far away?
Hu Lun Qian gritted his teeth, "Let Zuo Du protect him and tell him that this is a good opportunity to take the blame and make meritorious service. As long as there is a gap, I will personally go to King Khan to ask for credit for him."
The tiger is really training!Now I am hiding in the back row and using my mobile phone to type, and everyone is numb.I will speed up when I save some manuscripts on May [-]st.
(End of this chapter)
(The date in the previous chapter was wrong. Guo Guangyi surrounded Hushui City on July 25, not September 25.)
The battle in Wuzongga Chishan is over. How could the 10,000+ Uguz herdsmen who were chased and had nowhere to go to heaven or earth be able to defeat Bai Congxin's [-] elite cavalry.
Not to mention the difference in equipment between the two sides, it is these grassland cavalry who have been brainwashed for several years and trained with a large number of rewards and military merit systems. When fighting, they really regard death as home.

The former is a matter of interests, while the latter is a matter of principle, and must be dealt with heavily.
"Let the children enjoy themselves for two days. After two days, 2000 people will be left to guard, and the rest will have one man and two horses. They must rush to Talas within ten days!"
Bai Congxin gave the order in a sharp voice, it was still [-] miles away from Talas, and it was more than [-] miles a day, not too little, but not too much.
Naturally, this is also the reason why Bai Congxin wanted to kill nearly [-] adult males among the nine surnamed Oguz.
The army is about to raid Guo Guangyi in Talas, how can there be tens of thousands of young men behind!
. . . .
At the Sanshan Pass, Hu Guang was gnawing on the leg of lamb leisurely and contentedly. Apart from those on guard, the rest of the soldiers also seized the time to eat, drink, rest or arrange their armor and weapons, even Chi Tian of the Gray Wolf Department did the same.
Everyone understands in their hearts, not to mention whether it is dangerous for them to rescue like this, Suiye has caused such a big rebellion, and those who are really determined to treat themselves as Tang children have already been rescued, and those in the distance belong to those who do not want to be barbarians. But if you don't want to resist, whether you can save it or not depends entirely on your mood.
Moreover, everyone is very clear in their hearts, if these people are saved, how will His Majesty explain?After doing such a thing, you still want to get out of your body?
Therefore, everyone enjoyed the last peace before the war with peace of mind.
"Boom! Boom!" The sound of the war drums seemed louder and then softer, but the hissing of horses became more and more obvious.

His father, uncle and two uncles were all killed in this mutiny. After fleeing to the Gray Wolf Department, they also took the lives of the ninth uncle Guo Xuanchao and Chi Tian's father.
"How many days has it been?" Hu Guangzai asked slowly after carefully eating the honey-roasted leg of lamb in his hand.
Guo Tianfang quickly replied: "Mr. Hu, it's been ten days!"
"Hey!" Hu Guang grabbed a handful of sand and wiped the grease off his hands, and looked up in surprise.
"It's really tenacious! Among their 4 people, there are only a few thousand strong, and so many people are crowded in the city to eat and drink less, and they can resist Guo Guangyi's fierce attack of 5 people for ten days. It's interesting."
Li Jixie snorted disdainfully when he heard this, "They're all scumbags. If Ken worked so hard in Suiye back then, even if he couldn't defend the city, he could at least keep Guo Jiushu from escaping to Khotan. Why risk your life now! "
Hu Guang wiped his hands clean, er, this level of cleanliness is of course his personal standard.
Seeing a bowl of honey rice in Li Jixie's hand, Hu Guang snatched it without hesitation, "Go and ask Mr. Yao, how many people are left in the city?"
Li Jixi glanced at Hu Guang resentfully, and ran away angrily.
Yao Yuanfu ordered people to build three watchtowers on the hill near Hushui City, so that the soldiers with good eyes could keep watch over them.
Before Li Jixuan ran to the watchtower, he saw Yao Yuanfu's relatives riding their horses towards Daying. When he saw Li Jixuan, he immediately shouted, "Hurry up and report to the supervisor. Hu Shuicheng suffered heavy casualties. If you can't hold on." gone."
. . . .
In fact, Hu Shuicheng could hold on for a while, but it was pretty miserable.
Luo Dingzhong's hand drooped unnaturally, but fortunately it was not a fracture but a dislocation, and soon a doctor helped him set the bone.
Puguquan leaned against a pile of dead bodies, his face was pale, his eyes were wide open and he looked up at the sky, a few flies were crawling around his face, but he didn't move, obviously he had been dead for a long time.
Guo Guangbi was trying his best to repair his smashed iron helmet, his legs were blood red.

"Enough is enough, it should be enough, if we don't come, we will all die!" A young man beside Luo Dingzhong murmured.
There are more than 6000 young men in Hushui City. Now I don't know if there are [-] left, which has far exceeded half of the battle loss rate.
A painful smile appeared on the corner of Luo Dingzhong's mouth, he knew that Boss Hu would come soon.
Not only did they pay the price, but after the ten-day bloody battle, they, who could only be regarded as armed herdsmen and auxiliary soldiers, have been trained in this cruel fight. It is an elite fighter.
Judging from Manager Hu's leisurely attitude, the goal of the sage is not simply to put down Guo Guangyi's rebellion, nor is it just because of Guo Luan'er's affairs. Everything the sage does should be aimed at Saman Persia.
This is a powerful and powerful country occupying half of the river and half of Persia. A comparison shows that the Khotan Jin Kingdom is known as the Anxi Shengguo, but it has a population of less than 90. Adding the more than 150 in Beiting, the total But [-] million.
As for Saman Persia, there are a full 400 million people. If it is not completely defeated and dismembered, what occupies the river, Xia Junyi and the people are all empty talk.
However, Saman Persians have never entered the scope of Chinese culture. They are not only different from China, but also have different languages, customs, and beliefs.
It is not difficult to defeat such a big country, but it is quite difficult to rule, unless the court maintains a garrison of 10 to [-] people in Saman Persia for a long time.
But the price is too high. I am afraid that all the benefits obtained from Saman Persia will be fed to the [-] garrisons, and the court will not get much. It is destined that this model cannot be maintained for too long.
Is there a way to save money and effort?
Have!
Luo Dingzhong knelt down slowly toward the east, and the way to save money and effort was to use these broken leaf people.
They said it was Tang'er, but they were more familiar with the river, what did the Saman Persian people think, what did they need, what were they afraid of, and how to make them more obedient?
Even Tang'er, who has lived in Suiye for hundreds of years, understands how to introduce the Six Dharma Sect to the land of Saman Persia to replace Tianfang Sect.
With the help of these locals, it is possible to basically Sinicize Hezhong in the next 30 to [-] years.
Saints are saints and masters, and they must be able to understand their value.
"Raise the silver and white flag, pull everyone to the top of the city to beg, tell Boss Hu, we know we are wrong, and ask him to send heavenly soldiers to rescue!"
Luo Dingzhong shouted loudly, it has come to this time, it is safer to continue to resist than to plead.
Guo Guangbi gritted his teeth, moved his broken leg with difficulty, and took out the silver-white golden sun and moon flag that he had always treasured from a wooden box not far away.
It was made when Guo Xuancheng was still alive. Although the sixth uncle of the Guo family also listened to Suiye's tune and did not listen to the announcement, his purpose was still fundamentally different from Guo Guangyi's.
Guo Xuancheng just wanted to pass the position under his butt to his children and grandchildren, so that the Guo family could be Suiye County King and vassal of the court for generations. He still valued the court and the Tang Dynasty very much.
A silver-white golden sun and moon flag was hoisted at the head of Hushui City. The old and weak, women and children were all over the city wall, and countless people bowed towards the east like the tide.
"Saint, we are wrong, please show mercy!"
"I'm waiting for the death penalty, the women and children are innocent, please have mercy on the saint."
"Please come quickly, heavenly soldiers! Come quickly!"
Guo Guangbi propped his hands on the ground, crawled to Luo Dingzhong's side, and looked up at him with effort, "In Suiye, we have 4 people with six surnames, mainly you, Pu Guquan and a certain family.
When Guo thief entered Suiye, Ru Luo Dingzhong was the one who wanted to resist the most, but he was stopped by a certain and Pu Guquan.So if you survive today, you and Pu Guquan will undoubtedly die.
Today, Pugu has all died in battle, and a certain person's legs are crippled, and life is meaningless, so it's better to leave some legacy for us people, Luo Erlang, the wife and children of a certain family, please. "
Luo Dingzhong heaved a long sigh, why should he have known today!
"Brother Huai is smart and quick-witted, and I love him the most. He grew up with Erniang, a childhood sweetheart, let Brother Huai be my son-in-law in the future.
If the sage is kind enough to allow us to take our sins and make meritorious deeds, I heard that there are two official titles of appeasement envoy and town appeasement envoy below Duke Hou of the foreign vassal.
Among them, the town governor governs a small town of 1000 people and governs [-] people. As long as Luo Dingzhong is alive, he will definitely earn a hereditary town governor for Huai Geer. "
When Guo Guangbi heard what Luo Dingzhong said, a smile appeared on his face. He leaned against the city wall and forced a big gift to Luo Dingzhong.
After following Guo Guangbi, he yelled, stood up with his hands on the city wall, and shouted to the east: "The sinner Guo Guangbi has an unforgivable crime, and his death is not a pity. I only hope that Mr. Hu will give this Hushui city the best for the sake of his past love." Tens of thousands of people have a way out!"
After finishing speaking, without the slightest hesitation, he supported himself with both hands, and jumped down from the city wall.
At this time, Hu Guang had already arrived at the watchtower. After a few hundred steps, he saw Guo Guangbi jumping off the city wall with his own eyes, and heaved a long sigh.
Guo Guangbi can be regarded as having a relationship with him.In the broken leaf battle in the past, when the tiger knights were injured, Guo Guangbi organized people to carry them back for treatment.
man!Just don't make mistakes and go astray. Originally, he was a pioneer in Hezhong Haojilang, but today he can only lose his life with a disgraceful reputation.
"Beat the drum! Order soldiers!" Hu Guangda shouted, got on his horse, and galloped to the barracks at the head.
. . . .
In Guo Guangyi's barracks, this long-faced 'hero' had left behind shadows of his whip dancing. In the tent, several officers who were weak in combat were being beaten with blood on their backs.
"A [-]-strong army attacked a small city guarded by several thousand people, and lost more than a thousand people in ten days, but they didn't make any progress. What's the use of supporting them?"
Don't blame Guo Guangyi for being anxious, you must know the current situation, but he was determined to kill his wife and son in exchange for it.
This kind of thing, even in the river or on the grassland, is despised by people.
But the good thing is that these two places respect power, as long as you kill your wife and children but you are powerful, other people will despise you at most and dare not show it.
But if the power of killing his wife and son is not pulled up, it will be dangerous. This revenge and backlash will really come like a tide.
Moreover, at Sanshan Pass, more than [-] miles away from Hushui City, there are still [-] Zhou troops, and they are what Guo Guangyi is worried about.
"Those Tang'ers are still at Sanshan Pass?"
The confidant General Hu Lun Jian hurriedly stroked his chest and replied: "Those Tang children were afraid of King Khan's supernatural power, and dared not step out of the stronghold for ten days.
They are only more than [-] people, and the cavalry is less than [-]. After taking down Hushui City, they only need to use [-] fine cavalry to keep them in check. "
Guo Guangyi only showed a little smile on his face now. Indeed, these Tang'ers are too incompetent, and they dare not attack for ten days. It would be a bit troublesome if they flanked the people from Hushuicheng these days.
It now appears that the so-called warriors of the Han and Tang Dynasties were nothing more than bragging, and the Heavenly Soldiers that our ancestors spoke of were nothing more than rumors.
Maybe they were indeed heroic two or three hundred years ago, but now, they are just a group of cowards with empty titles.
Guo Guangyi raised his hand, and was about to tell the cavalry team monitoring Tang'er's army to cheer up, when the curtain of the tent was suddenly lifted, and an officer covered in blood rushed in.
"King Khan, the Tang army is out of camp, Zuo Duhu can't resist, please King Khan send troops to reinforce!"
Guo Guangyi just felt his head explode, Zuo Duhu has [-] cavalry, how could they be overwhelmed so quickly?
. . . .
"In ancient times, Dunhuang was full of supernatural generals, and I felt the admiration of all the tribes. Look at the Dragon Court, and Lintai has long been famous. I only hate the tribes, and it is difficult to express my love. Sooner or later, I will destroy the wolves and the tribes, and worship the holy face together."
Amidst the sound of rumbling drums, the Eight Thousand Western Army marching out of the village sang the ancient times of Dunhuang and marched forward.
Sanshan Pass was only twenty miles away from the battlefield, so Hu Guang simply let his soldiers advance in battle formation.
The central army of the main army is the [-] tiger and ben army led by Yao Yuanfu. This is the power that Zhang Tie gave Hu Guang before he set off.
If Yao Yuanfu can make a surprise attack and recover Suiye, then Hu Guang can immediately form the pro-army Zuo Hubenwei and appoint Yao Yuanfu as the pro-army Zuohu Benwei Zhonglang General.
On the left and right sides of the central army is the Shenshezhen part of the Forbidden Army led by Li Jixun.
Shenshe Town was upgraded from Zhang Tie's Shenji Battalion. The Shenji Battalion used camel whirlwind cannons at first, but in the past ten years, Zhang Zhou has never encountered a few heavy ones that need to be hit by Zhou Jun with camel whirlwind cannons. The infantry gradually became weak.
As a result, a part of the Shenji Battalion, mainly engaged in camel whirlwind cannons, was merged into the Tiangong Institute, engaged in the research of large-scale counterweight trebuchets and the preliminary testing of artillery.
The other part was expanded and became the Forbidden Army Shenshe Town and the Pro-Army Left and Right Sheshengwei.
As can be seen from the names, these three teams specialize in bows and crossbows.
What Li Jixun controlled was only a part of Shenshe Town, with 2000 people.
The 1000 people on the left side of the army like to wear tuanhua brocade robes outside the ring lock armor. They are composed of Uyghur left tent crossbowmen in Ganzhou in the past as the backbone. crossbow camp.
The 1000 people on the right side of the army are accustomed to wearing white boots, with red foreheads inlaid with silver and white borders. They were formed by the Tabai Crossbowmen of Hanhai Town originally compiled by Yan Jin. They are called the Tabai Battalion in front of the palace. There are elite among the elite who can be on duty in front of the inner palace.
And despite the fact that there are only 1000 people in the Tabai Battalion in front of the hall, half of them are armed with swords and half of them can ride and shoot.
In addition to these 5000 people, there are also [-] elite cavalry. This is the elite cavalry formed by Xiaorui from the Qiji Society of the Four States of Guasha Suyi as the backbone, and led by Chen Tingxiao, who was born in the Chen family of Yizhou.
Among the remaining 500 people, there are also [-] of Huguang's own followers, with Li Jixi as the general Yuhou.
These 200 people are all composed of Helong Xunchen's children, and they are unparalleled in bravery. If Li Jixuan hadn't been powerful in battle, and could have an equal share with the imperial warrior Murong Xin from Guazhou in the shooting ceremony, he would not be able to command at all.
The rest are Suiye natives like Chi Tian and Guo Tianfang, they came to do odd jobs, and by the way let them see the bravery of the imperial court soldiers.
With the sound of trampling horseshoes, Li Jixi rode back with one of the enemy generals under his left and right arms. When he saw Hu Guang, he laughed loudly, and then threw the two enemy generals onto the dusty ground with a plop.
"Boss, these two thieves will harass me in front of my formation. A certain person personally rode up to catch up with them and captured them alive. It's a pity that the enemy general who commanded the troops ran away."
Guo Tianfang saw that the two thieves were motionless on the ground, looked at it curiously, and immediately exclaimed.
It turned out that the two thieves had protruding eyeballs and their faces were blue and purple, and they were strangled to death.
He couldn't help but looked at Li Jixuan in horror, and killed the two thieves with his arms alone, how powerful it must be!
"Dead?" Li Jixie also widened his eyes, only to realize that the two thieves had passed away, and immediately raised his hand involuntarily, looked at his creaking nests on both sides, and muttered in his mouth.
"How could he be so ungrateful? That day when he was fighting with that thief, Murong Xinchun, someone clamped his neck, using much more force than this. Who knew that Murong Xinchun was not afraid at all, and even elbowed someone on the left rib, which almost didn't hurt. die of a certain family."
It happened that his elder brother Li Jixun passed by, and he couldn't help rolling his eyes when he heard this.
Who is Murong Xinchun? He is the cousin of Liaoyang County King Murong Xinchang. It's thicker, how can it be compared!
At this moment, there was a rush of drumbeats ahead, and the orderly waved the red pennant and galloped back and forth. It was obvious that most of the enemy troops had arrived.
With a wave of Hu Guang's hand, Li Jixie jumped onto the drum cart and beat the giant drum pulled by the carriage three times long and three short times.
Yuhou of each capital, general Yuhou, and the team heard the sound of the drum. Qi Qi ordered the guards around him to beat the small drum on his chest, and also made three long and three short sounds.
All the soldiers shouted 'Habayashi!Habayashi!Habayashi! 'Stop after repeating three times.
Then the whole army spread out on the spot, each team's captain, team deputy, and chief fireman wore armor, and the light soldiers who did not arrange armor to go into battle helped the officers put on their armor. The winding is completed and the defense is done.
At this time, the enemy army had not yet arrived, and the sound of drums became denser. The team leader, team deputy, and fire chief who had finished putting on their armor stepped forward, and the soldiers of each team returned to line up and began to put on their armor.
A conch horn sounded, and the watchman on Lu Gong's car waved a yellow flag from northeast to southwest, up and down twice.
The herald below who had been observing immediately reported to Huguang: "The enemy rides about [-] horses, and the distance is more than [-] steps. They attack in two directions, more on the right and less on the left."
Li Jixie was eager to try it immediately, even Chen Tingxiao licked his lips excitedly, but Hu Guang shook his head.
"All the left and right cavalry dismounted and hid in the formation. Chi Tian, you go, take your horses and ride on your horses, and look a little flustered."
Hu Guang wouldn't just let Chen Tingxiao and Li Jixuan go. The reason why Guo Guangyi dared to attack Hushui City in front of him was because he thought Hu Guang was timid and had few cavalry.
If we release the elite cavalry now, and let Guo Guangyi know that although he has few cavalry, all of them are cavalry queens who can serve as five-hu cavalry for one Han, then he has to run away immediately.
. . . .
Suddenly, Qiang felt something was wrong when he was still on the horse. Twelve thousand of them rode and swept over the sky, but the opposite side had only a few thousand people out of the camp, but there was no chaos at all, and they even put their spears in front very easily. There are several large formations behind the bows and crossbows.
As the number one general under Guo Guangyi's command, Hu Lun Qian's knowledge was pretty good, and he instinctively felt that the opposing army was not easy to fight.
Suddenly Lun Qian waved his hand and ordered the cavalry to disperse, and surrounded the Tang infantry cruising around two or three hundred paces, making a big noise, rolling up dust all over the sky, trying to threaten them, and also looking for openings.
The cavalry would not bump into the infantry at once, that would be courting death.
Especially in the face of such a well-organized infantry formation, one must continue to intimidate, and then find a loophole, and then sneak in through this loophole and disperse the infantry.
However, Hu Lun Qian's little trick had no effect on Zhou Jun. What a joke, the Khitan cavalry back then were fierce enough, and their threats and intimidation didn't have much effect.
When Lun Jian saw it, his heart beat even more. The layman watched the excitement and the expert watched the doorway. These Tang infantrymen were so calm when faced with the encirclement and intimidation of the cavalry, they were by no means a cowardly army.
He was about to send someone to report back to Guo Guangyi, but he saw Guo Guangyi's personal guards came to the front of the formation holding the gem-studded King Khan's silver knife, and shouted loudly: "King Khan asked you, why did you delay?"
Suddenly, when he heard it, everyone became numb.
It's just that he didn't know that after he led 1 riders as the vanguard, Guo Guangyi tried to hit Hu Shuicheng again.
As a result, good fellow, the people in the city saw that Hu Guang led the army to rescue them, and their morale was even higher. Even women and children dared to tear down the houses in the city and throw stones at the top of the city.
Warlord Guo Guangyi rushed twice and was beaten out. Frustrated with shame, Guo Guangyi used his remaining rationality to give up the idea of continuing to attack the city.
These "cowardly Tang soldiers" who were going to turn around and fight out of the stronghold first, and then starved all the people in Hushui City to death in the city, so they hurriedly urged Hu Lun Qiang to come forward.
Suddenly Lun Qianzheng was hesitating, and he heard cheers from the front. It turned out that the rangers in front had caught a group of Tang cavalry who were fleeing in panic, and they were beating them up.
Could it be that the calmness just now was an illusion, maybe I didn't see it clearly because I was far away?
Hu Lun Qian gritted his teeth, "Let Zuo Du protect him and tell him that this is a good opportunity to take the blame and make meritorious service. As long as there is a gap, I will personally go to King Khan to ask for credit for him."
The tiger is really training!Now I am hiding in the back row and using my mobile phone to type, and everyone is numb.I will speed up when I save some manuscripts on May [-]st.
