Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty
Chapter 696
The sky was covered with dark clouds, thunder rumbled, lightning flashed across the sky, and it rained cats and dogs.
The Nanzhong Army stepped forward on the water, killing the enemy and trapping them.
Under the leadership of Jiao Yuan and Lou Xi, more than a thousand soldiers from the South Central Committee followed closely behind, roaring and charging.
Ma Zhong went north to rescue this time, and the soldiers selected were all soldiers with the surname of Nanzhong.Nanzhong Bing uses the children of Nanzhong's powerful surnames as generals and schools, and most of the followers and soldiers are part of them.
As for why the soldiers of Nanzhong were not selected as the vanguard, the fundamental reason is that the soldiers of Nanzhong are not as good as the children of Nanzhong Hao and powerful surnames and the elite of trilogy.Because the children of South Central Han were located in the barbarian area and had frequent conflicts, the education they received was different from that of the common people in the Central Plains. They paid more attention to the art of war, riding and archery, etc., which were applicable to war.Judging from the fact that Meng Yan, a native of Nanzhong, served as the commander of the Tiger Army, we can know one or two of them.
Not to mention using their trilogy as soldiers, all major surnames have powerful arms.The most typical incident is the Nanzhong Rebellion.
Or like the Cuan family, one of the four surnames and five sons, the reason why they became the actual rulers of Yunnan in the hundreds of years from the Eastern Jin Dynasty to the Middle Tang Dynasty was because they had the strongest armed forces in Yunnan and were able to support soldiers. self-respect.And where their armed forces come from, isn't it their own trilogy.
Moreover, their trilogy is not the ordinary tribal soldiers of Soochow, but the few elite tribal troops in Nanzhong. Like Sanwei, they do not engage in agriculture or production, but make a living by fighting.
Where does its output come from?From the slaves of the big family.
During the Han Dynasty, Chengdu was the largest slave trade center in China, and most of its slaves came from the Nanzhong area.One of the important purposes of these Nanzhong surnames and barbarians launching wars and fighting with weapons is to plunder the other party's tribe as slaves, or sell them to Chengdu, or use them as slaves themselves.
During the Three Kingdoms period, slavery in the Southwest reached its peak.In the early days of the founding of the Shu Han Dynasty, there was a Xiaolian Qinjian whose father was a county magistrate. He went on a business trip to Yuexuan County, where he was taken as a slave by the local barbarians and sold eleven times.In the end, it was Qin Jian who entered Nanzhong, traveled thousands of miles, and finally redeemed his father, so Qin Jian was promoted as Xiaolian.
From this incident, we can see the universality and seriousness of the fighting with weapons in Nanzhong, and taking each other into slavery.Until modern times, the Yi people in Daliangshan also had remnants of slavery.
The Han Dynasty ruled Nanzhong and was unable to ban slavery, and Liu Chan was still contributing to it. The Three Guards were able to develop in the early years because they went south to Nanzhong to plunder in order to refuse to accept the barbarians as slaves.
However, the big Han will not sit idly by and ignore the chaos caused by slaves in Nanzhong, but strictly prohibits the captive barbarians and Han people who obey the big Han as slaves, and offenders will be severely punished.
What is a barbarian who obeys a big man is just a barbarian who pays taxes to a big man.Liu Chan made it very clear to the prefect and governor of Nanzhong that after paying the taxes, those barbarians are the Dahan's own people. You are welcome, the Dahan will naturally protect them as much as possible.If they don't pay and they are captured and taken as slaves, then I, a big man, can't control them.
That is to say, the children of Nanzhong and their trilogy are not kind people. They have been licking blood all the year round. They are all ruthless and extremely elite.
If you compare them with the Han sergeants, maybe the big army is not as good as fighting, but their personal bravery is extremely outstanding.In battles with hundreds or thousands of people, they are far braver and more tenacious than ordinary troops!
As for how to stimulate their subjective initiative, that is to exchange their blood with their future by "making diplomatic relations with southerners".
There is no doubt that they have reached a contract with the big man, and they will use their steps and their own bravery to sign the contract.
Moreover, they followed Ma Zhong and went deep into the enemy's territory thousands of miles away. If they did not win, let alone their family's future, even they would perish.
What about fighting in the heavy rain today? It's not like they haven't fought before. With the current situation, they have to fight to the death with a knife.
What's more, they have a sharp weapon for rain fighting - rattan armor. The rattan armor is not as strong as the iron armor, but in terms of flexibility and convenience in rain fighting, the rattan armor is far better than the iron armor.Nanzhong's children and trilogy, they fight all year round, they will prepare two sets of armor, one is rattan armor, and the other is armor, which is used for battle.
So, holding a sword and holding a shield, Jiao Yuan, wearing a rattan armor, led the Jiao clan, and rushed into the enemy army in one breath.Fighting left and right, fighting several people in a row, rushing into the enemy's formation, he and the dense queue behind him are like a dragon flying in the rainstorm, unstoppable!
Using a rattan shield to block a Wu soldier's slashing, Jiao Yuan stepped in and slashed at the Wu soldier's forehead with a knife.Perhaps because the rain blocked the line of sight, the blade stuck to the ear and cut into the shoulder.
Jiao Yuan drew the knife hard, and the blade cut through the muscles on Wu Zu's shoulder, and with a click, the lower arm of the knife broke.Wu Zu looked up to the sky and screamed, blood gushed out from his arm, the warm blood fell into the soil together with the cold rain, and bloomed with the accumulated water.
Jiao Yuan casually slashed again, fully understanding Wu Zu's pain.
Jiao Yuan excitedly raised his shield and yelled, regardless of the heavy rain, he stepped forward, killing anyone he saw, and there was no one who would join him.
Two miles away from Jiaoyuan, Li Yi led his horse on foot and walked north of Lu Dai's headquarters for a while.
It hasn't been raining for long, and perhaps because of the heavy rainfall, the low-lying areas have turned into mud ponds.Therefore, the lower body of Li Yi and his horse has been covered by a lot of muddy water.And with the wind and the rain coming, Li Yi tried his best to walk on the horse.
Li Yi, a descendant of the Li family in Nanzhong, son of Li Hui, the former governor of Nanzhong.Because Li Hui also served as the prefect of Jianning, he needed to avoid his clansmen.Li Hui moved to live in Hanzhong. After Li Hui died of illness, he returned to Nanzhong with his family.Perhaps influenced by his father Yu En, Li Yi was able to work in the Dudu Mansion.
Although he has an official position, Li Yi is dissatisfied with it, and he is eager to reach another level.This expedition to Jiaozhou gave him hope, so he took his tribe and tribes with the army on an expedition in order to seek the official of two thousand stones.
And Ma Zhong also fulfilled his wish, this time he was asked to lead a cavalry pawn composed of Nanzhong children to charge and kill the Wu army's central army, completing a fatal blow to kill Lu Dai's life.
For the children of Nanzhong, because Nanzhong is rich in Nanzhong horses, and the animal husbandry is developed, their family is rich. They can ride and shoot, gallop between mountains and mountains, and have excellent riding skills.
That's right, Nanzhong is different from everyone's impression. Their agriculture is not developed, but their animal husbandry is developed.During the Han Dynasty, the Central Plains Dynasty conquered Nanzhong, and captured thousands of horses, tens of thousands of cattle and sheep, and captured more than [-] cattle and horses and other livestock.Therefore, the Yi people of the southern and central tribes need to pay nearly [-] cattle and horses and other livestock to the Han every year.
As they gradually reached their destination, the disciples of Nanzhong slowly approached and put cowhide armor on their war horses one after another, thinking that they could protect them from the rain and avoid blades.As far as war horses are concerned, they are not suitable for fighting in the rain. They are also afraid of getting sick and dare not be exposed to heavy rain.But fortunately, the war horses in Nanzhong live in Nanzhong all year round, and the damage to them by rain is far less than that of grassland horses.
Lieutenant General Yong Chuan straightened the leather armor on his horse and shouted through the rain, "General, are you ready to fight?"
According to Yong Chuan, members of the Yong family in Nanzhong, perhaps because of Yong Kai's rebellion, the Yong family is far less popular than other surnames and is favored by the Han government.And this time he went to Jiaozhou with the army, not for anything else, but for meritorious service.
Affected by the rain blocking his sight, Li Yi looked to the south and couldn't see the current battle situation, so he couldn't help hesitating.
Just as he was thinking about whether to continue to look for a high place to look at, a bolt of lightning split the rain curtain, making the field that was deep in gloom brighten up instantly, allowing Li Yi to see clearly what happened on the battlefield.At this moment, Li Yi saw Jiao Yuan's troops march forward bravely, and the small Soochow troops resisting them had been defeated, and they rushed to the Soochow main formation.
Li Yi was overjoyed, got on his horse, raised his gun and shouted: "Children of Nanzhong, go out with me."
"promise!"
……
Although the heavy rain was pouring down, Lu Dai still stood on a high place to observe the enemy's situation.
With such rain, the flag was wet by the rain, making it difficult to fly high; the sound of the golden drum changed, and the sound of the beating was blocked by the sound of the rain.
But at least he could see the current battle situation. Lu Ju broke through Liao Qian's troops and charged fiercely, which was quite brave.However, perhaps because of Ma Zhong's help, Liao's army is still struggling to support them, but they don't know when they will be broken by Lu Ju.
As for the Han army, Jiao Yuan and Lou Xi led thousands of elite troops to attack in the rain, and penetrated the Yiling station he sent to try to block their advance.Immediately afterwards, I saw them encouraging the soldiers to continue fighting, sweeping up the defeated army, and rushing in their direction.
Lu Dai sighed, and walked down the mound. Because of the muddy mud and his old eyesight, he accidentally stumbled and fell, and couldn't help but let out a low cry.
The attendant supported Lu Dai and asked, "Master, how are you doing?"
Lu Dai thought the attendant was asking how the battle was going, touched the rain on his beard, and said hesitantly, "It's unlikely to win this battle."
Lu Dai's original plan was to rely on Wu's soldiers and elites to withstand the first strong attack by Liao's troops; when Liao's troops were exhausted, let Lu Ju lead the army to fight and defeat Liao's troops. decide the outcome.
Unexpectedly, a small group of ambush soldiers came out of it. At this point, Lu Dai changed his strategy and sent troops to stop the ambush. After Lu Ju broke the formation, he would deal with this group of troops.
What Lu Dai didn't expect was that the Han army that came out of the ambush was so elite, with a thousand men, they defeated two thousand Wu troops, and with the power of victory, they charged their own army.Basically all the army in his hand has been dispatched, and there are not many troops left.
If they are allowed to attack the headquarters, with their elite, it will inevitably cause a chain reaction.Coupled with the heavy rain now, the sight is blocked, after a fierce battle between the two sides, there is a high probability that the battle will end in a draw.
Hearing what Lu Dai said, the attendant gritted his teeth and cursed: "The thief is treacherous, and he is protected by heavy rain. If there is no such heavy rain, we will definitely find this ambush army. How can we let it easily break through Yi Xiaowei's army."
Lu Dai shook his head, but he still didn't give up, and ordered: "Send someone to tell Lu Ju to quickly break through Liao Shi's troops. The longer it delays, the harder it will be for our army to win."
"promise!"
As dusk approached, the sky became more and more solemn, and the visible range became smaller.At the same time, the rain became more and more intense. Hundreds of millions of drops of water fell to the ground, making a rumbling sound. Although the sound was not as scary as the thunder in the sky, it made people tremble, and a sense of depression struck.
However, amidst the roaring rain, there was a sound of trampling on mud and water. Although the sound was small, it continued, and it came from the ground, which made Lu Dai feel uneasy.
Although Lu Dainian was in his eighties, he was very energetic, and his eyesight and hearing were not bad.He looked north following the sound, reached out to wipe off the water all over his face, squinted his eyes and stared at a little bit, affected by the lack of vision, he found nothing unusual.
The constant feeling of depression made him uncomfortable, and he shouted: "How is the situation in the rear of our army? Send someone to take a look."
"promise!"
The scouts rode their horses to the north, and Lu Dai focused on the battle ahead again.
Not long after the scouts left, a soldier rushed over from behind and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, there are enemy cavalry behind our army, and they are charging towards our army!"
Lu Dai's face was terrified, and he turned his head to look to the north. There was another lightning flash and thunder, and the sky and the earth suddenly lit up.
I saw a group of hundreds of cavalry galloping from the north. They were wearing red robes, but they did not have a uniform standard armor.But no one would treat this group of people as miscellaneous soldiers. Their armor reflected the lightning in the sky under the lightning.
Rainwater slipped from their armor or the leather armor of their horses below them. They held horse lances, and the sharp lance tips gleamed coldly, piercing the raindrops, showing that they were well equipped.
In terms of weapons, in addition to the standard horse lance, they may carry flails, ring swords, crossbows and other weapons.
Lu Dai's hand holding the sword hilt couldn't help trembling slightly. He didn't expect Liao Shi to have such a group of heavy cavalry, which he had never seen before on the battlefield!
Lu Dai was silent for a while, and then looked around, he seemed to know something, this cavalry and that ambush did not belong to Liao Shi, but were supported by the Han army from nowhere.It is most likely to come from Jiaozhou, and Jiaozhou is close to Nanzhong, so there is a high probability that it is Nanzhong soldiers and horses.
Could it be Nan Zhong Ma Zhong?
The attendant was the first to react and shouted: "Master, let's go!"
Lu Dai kept his trembling hands steady, pressed the long sword at his waist tightly, and said to the guards on the left and right: "If this battle is defeated, Jiaozhou will no longer be owned by my great Wu, and Jingnan will also fall. So what about Dai?" Can I see His Majesty with face?"
Lu Dai's tears slid down with the rain. Did he know what kind of chain reaction the situation would have if he was defeated.The decades of hard work of His Majesty and the generals of Eastern Wu may have been in vain, and they will return to a corner of Jiangdong.Therefore, if he returned to the country alive, how would he have the face to meet them, and how much humiliation he would suffer.
Lu Dai drew out his long sword, touched his face, and shouted: "Follow me to fight to the death and serve the country, and those who abandon the army will be killed."
"promise!"
"Is there a bow and crossbow archer?"
"No more, it's wet by the rain, so I can't pull it anymore."
"How should this be?"
Everyone in the Chinese army was in a panic, trying to find a crossbow that was not wet, but it was a pity that they had not waited for them to find it.The cavalry of Nanzhong's children had already broken through the formation of the rear army, killing and killing.A group of dozens of cavalry rushed straight towards Lu Dai.
Holding a long sword in his hand, Lu Dai, without fear, called to stop the flustered Wu soldiers and trilogy, trying to confront the enemy.
The leading young general set his sights on Lu Dai and shouted, "This is General Wu, kill him."
"promise!"
"Yes, yes, yes~"
The horseshoes stepped on the muddy ground, splashing countless water splashes, and the momentum of the cavalry climbed up.
Lu Dai, who felt that he was not afraid of life and death, trembled involuntarily when he met the cold gaze under the gilded bronze visor of the young general.
"what!"
The war horses staggered past, Lu Dai's body was carried away by the galloping long spear, and the long sword in his hand fell into the quagmire.
"Snapped!"
Chang Leng pulled away from Lu Dai's body, and Lu Dai's body fell on the muddy ground until someone shouted: "Zhou Mu is dead!"
The armies of Han and Wu woke up like a dream. It turned out that the man was Lv Dai, Mu of Jiaozhou, who had died in battle.
Hearing this, the young general couldn't help shouting excitedly: "Lu Dai was beheaded by me, Yang Ji."
"Han Ji Two Horses Zhang Li Biography (Note ①)": "Xia Wuyue, loyal to Zhongzu's order, entered Jiaozhou from Nanzhong, Pingjiaozhi, Yulin...Wu Jiaozhou Mu Lu Dai listed Chen Gong Liao style , Send general Lu Ju out of the middle, the style army is not supported. Loyal soldiers arrive, don’t send thousands of Jiaoyuan soldiers, Li Yi and Yong Chuan lead hundreds of Nanzhong cavalry, and attack them. When it rains heavily, Yuan, Yi, Chuan, etc. will risk The Yu battle broke it, and the doctor Yang Ji beheaded Lu Dai and others. Zhongwei caressed Jingjiao, and Zhongzu was very happy..."

One more chapter tonight!
The Nanzhong Army stepped forward on the water, killing the enemy and trapping them.
Under the leadership of Jiao Yuan and Lou Xi, more than a thousand soldiers from the South Central Committee followed closely behind, roaring and charging.

Everyone in the Chinese army was in a panic, trying to find a crossbow that was not wet, but it was a pity that they had not waited for them to find it.The cavalry of Nanzhong's children had already broken through the formation of the rear army, killing and killing.A group of dozens of cavalry rushed straight towards Lu Dai.
Holding a long sword in his hand, Lu Dai, without fear, called to stop the flustered Wu soldiers and trilogy, trying to confront the enemy.
The leading young general set his sights on Lu Dai and shouted, "This is General Wu, kill him."
"promise!"
"Yes, yes, yes~"
The horseshoes stepped on the muddy ground, splashing countless water splashes, and the momentum of the cavalry climbed up.
Lu Dai, who felt that he was not afraid of life and death, trembled involuntarily when he met the cold gaze under the gilded bronze visor of the young general.
"what!"
The war horses staggered past, Lu Dai's body was carried away by the galloping long spear, and the long sword in his hand fell into the quagmire.
"Snapped!"
Chang Leng pulled away from Lu Dai's body, and Lu Dai's body fell on the muddy ground until someone shouted: "Zhou Mu is dead!"
The armies of Han and Wu woke up like a dream. It turned out that the man was Lv Dai, Mu of Jiaozhou, who had died in battle.
Hearing this, the young general couldn't help shouting excitedly: "Lu Dai was beheaded by me, Yang Ji."
