Red Mansion Soldiers

Chapter 18
Seeing the lights ahead, Jia Hun knew he had reached his destination, and immediately drew out the two short spears behind his back.

The blade of the spear is thicker than the blade of the knife, more resistant to making, and longer than the blade of the knife, and the throwing effect is also very good. Jia Hun, who rushed to the front, decided to use a short spear to open the way.

Seeing a short soldier with a duck voice running out of the house and yelling, Jia Hun didn't take it seriously, he was already close to his face, and they had no time to react.

Raising his right hand and throwing it, the short spear pierced the short sentry's chest, the sound stopped abruptly, and the soldier involuntarily stepped back a few steps, Jia Hun had already rushed in front of him.

Grabbing and pulling casually, the short spear returned to his hand, and the wave of people following him overwhelmed the soldier with his chest wide open.

The timing was well chosen, as soon as a few unlucky guys went out wearing clothes and carrying knives, their throats were cut open by the spear point, bringing out a long stream of blood.

According to Aser, the barracks and the house of Qianhu are in the middle of the town, and the guarding of Qianhu itself also performs the duties of the local chief officer.

According to the plan, Niu Zhao and Ma Lin should outflank to the south and east of the city, and Shui Che followed closely to encircle the north of the city.

He himself entered from the west of the city, blocked and killed people, and went straight into the enemy's barracks.

No matter how dull the soldiers were, they could hear the approaching muffled sound, and Qianhu, who was walking around in his yard, had already put on his armor, and rushed out of the courtyard door with a knife in his hand to run to the barracks.

It was too late to lead the horse.

The Tubo soldiers in the barracks also hurriedly put on their armor. Seeing this, Qian Hu stopped them and retreated to a corner of the barracks, forming a defensive cavalry formation.

Many people's shields were forgotten in the barracks, but based on experience, everyone chose a long gun, smashed the ground with the end of the gun until a small hole was made, put the tail of the gun in the small hole, and pointed the front tilt.

Jia Hun, who discovered their actions from the real-time map, immediately threw his spears on the ground, drew out his big bow, raised it above his head, and slowed down his horse.

The people behind them understood, and also picked up their bows and arrows from their sides.

Soon, he entered the gate.

The flames shone on the Tubo soldiers raising their guns, and Jia Hun also saw them, so he immediately steered his horse and ran to the side. The cavalry behind him were also veterans, and they also leaned sideways. Soon, more than 1000 people lined up horizontally. All right, draw your bow and nock your arrow.

"Shoot!" Jia Hun spat out the wooden ball in his mouth and shouted loudly.

Without aiming, the four-row cavalry shot out the arrows on the bow, and after two more arrows, they put the bow back into the quiver, dismounted and drew their swords.Some good archers even shoot several arrows in succession.

The soldiers who didn't enter behind also got off their horses and squeezed into the yard, and those with long weapons accelerated their pace and ran to the front.

As for why no more archery.

When Tubo Qianhu saw that the enemy did not intend to attack him, but wanted to shoot from a distance, he ordered a change of formation, and the whole team trotted towards Jia Hun and others in attack formation.

After three rounds of arrow rain, there were probably more than 600 people left.

Jia Hun also ordered the whole army to dismount, and ordered the spearmen to line up in front, and ordered the archers with good marksmanship to snipe and kill the enemy from the rear.

The Tubo soldiers also knew that they were going to wipe them out.

It's not certain who wins or loses!

With a wave of Jia Hun's hand, some soldiers with shields ran out from the barracks on both sides, and they stood together with the shieldmen from the headquarters.

Damn!
Tubo Qianhu saw that the two sides still had five steps to go, and it was too late to change their formation.

It's just a matter of courage.

"Stick!" Jia Hun and Tubo Qianhu issued the same order.

In an instant, the spear stabbed randomly, screaming again and again.

Tubo suffered even more casualties.

Since one's own side did not have shields to cover, most of the spearmen in the front rows died on the spot.

Jia Hun's side was covered by a shield, and the casualties were less than one-tenth of the opponent's.

"Shoot!" With an order, the shooters standing behind immediately launched a salvo.

There are not many gunmen left.

Only the sword and shield are left.

Yes, there are still a few sporadic people with shields, but a few shields are not enough to form a defense.

The spearmen laughed grinningly, raised their spears, and lined up to approach the remaining Tubo soldiers.

Tubo soldiers were stabbed to death one after another.

Qianhu has lost the will to resist, but seeing the falling robes, he still has his own pride as a descendant of the Great Khan's mother clan.

There were only a dozen people left, Jia Hun called to stop, and the soldiers also stopped advancing, making way for Jia Yi.

"what!"

Tubo Qianhu shouted loudly, and rushed towards Jia Hun with a waist knife in his hand.

Jia Hun drew a short spear from behind, and walked forward leisurely.

Thousands of households in Tubo are getting closer and closer to themselves.

Seeing that the enemy army did not stop him, Qianhu also understood.

Taking a deep breath, he let out the loudest roar in his life, and clenched the handle of the knife with both hands, as if pouring all the strength into his whole body.

Jia Hun finally made a move.

Jia Hun gripped the short spear tightly, and when Tubo Qianhu was about to see him, he swiped to the right with ingenuity, and pushed aside the blade that was slashing at him.

Raising his hand slightly with his wrist facing upwards, and pointing the spear point backward, Tubo Qianhu bumped into the spear blade.

Tubo Qianhu was staggered by the inertia and was about to fall forward. Suddenly, he felt something cold across his throat.

After all, he still couldn't stabilize his figure, and Tubo Qianhu fell to the ground clutching his neck, and the knife in his hand was thrown to nowhere.

Clearly feeling the passing of life, Tubo Qianhu clutched his neck even harder.

After struggling for a while, there was no movement.Still clutching his neck tightly.

Jia Hun and the others ignored him and sent someone to notify the other three departments that the battle was over.

Sitting on the Maza again, listening to the casualties.

"Report to the general, our army suffered a total of 98 casualties this time, of which 28 were killed in battle, the remaining 60 were injured, and the other three casualties are unknown."

Jia Hun was quite satisfied with the casualties.

The sneak attack caused heavy casualties, so we might as well go back home.

Soon, various ministries also brought people into the barracks.

None of the other three were killed, but about [-] people were injured.

They were mainly injured by officers and servants living outside the barracks who ran out in disorder.

It would be shameful to beat a few or even dozens of thousands of people.

Now we are waiting for Shi Yuanxiu to come back with the rest of the troops.

The sun came out, and the town changed owners.

Daqi's three-star flag was flying in the wind on the flagpole of the barracks.

. . . . . .

Except for Liu Rong's troops who were cleaning the battlefield, Jia Hun's headquarters, the main attacking force, cleaned up the barracks early and went in to rest.The other two ministries each left a hundred households guarded, and the rest came to the west of the city.

With his back to the sun, Jia Hun was sitting on a horse, drinking porridge.

The gang leader has delivered today's breakfast. There is nothing else, just put the meat porridge that everyone carries with them in a wooden bucket and heat it in water.

The two nights who led the way yesterday came over.

A young Ye Bushou walked up to Jia Hun and whispered something in his ear. Jia Hun raised his head, drank the remaining porridge in a few mouthfuls, turned his head to the left, and looked at the hut with the locked door.

"Go and knock on the door."

Night does not accept orders.

In the house, several people stayed up all night, for fear that snoring while asleep would attract attention.

Slap whoever wants to sleep.

So scared until dawn.

It was almost at the limit, and even the veteran didn't notice the movement of more than 2000 people eating outside the house.

"Boom, boom, open the door!"

There were three loud bangs as if the door was about to be hammered into pieces, and they felt as if they had been punched three times in the chest.

The old soldier heard the door calling and finally figured out who the enemy was.

They are Han people, now they are called Qi people.

The veteran remembered that when he was young, he went north to Hexi with King Khan to plunder and was beaten back. Those Qi people had such an accent.

Although he couldn't understand what the outsiders were saying, the veteran quickly opened the latch.

He raised his hands above his head, and took a few steps forward in small steps, without raising his head, and knelt down on the ground again, throwing himself on the ground.

The few people behind also hurriedly imitated the old soldier's appearance, kneeling on the ground likewise, one of them couldn't hold back his curiosity, raised his head and glanced at Jia Hun on the horse, and then lowered his head again.

There was a sound of breaking through the air, and the man fell to the ground in response, only to see a quivering feather arrow stuck between his eyebrows.The bone at the arrow has sunk in a piece.

Standing behind Jia Hun, Ma Lin put down the bow in his hand and glanced at Aser, who understood.

"Bow your head! Answer what I ask, otherwise, the person behind you will be your fate!" Aser yelled at the kneeling people in Tubo.

The veteran replied immediately.

Life and death are just a matter of one thought, without the slightest hesitation.

"The little one knows everything!"

Aser nodded, and looked back at Jia Hun, Jia Hun thought about it.A few nights were brought in, and they took a capable person who could understand Tubo dialect, and each took a prisoner to separate for interrogation.

"Ask him, how often do these people contact the east, how far is it from Bangor, and how many people are there?"

Aser immediately relayed the story to the veteran in Tubo.

The veteran immediately replied: "My lord, I just contacted Bangor three days ago, and the next contact will be 200 days later. The distance is at least [-] miles. The horse race is at least seven days. I don't know if the number of people is small, but it is not as many as in previous years." gone."

After finishing speaking, he lay down even lower.

Aser translated the veteran's words to Jia Hun, and stood aside after speaking. Jia Hun cast a vague glance at the person next to him, Ye Bu Suu, and Ye Bu Suu nodded slightly.

Only then did Jia Hun feel relieved.

Aser really took refuge in him.

After asking a few more questions, and the veteran answered them one by one, Jia Hun stopped asking.

The veteran finally had a chance to look around, with his head still and only his eyes looking left and right.

It turned out to be an army with all members in armor!

The veterans are envious. There is not enough supplies on the plateau, and there are not enough people in Tubo. Especially when the Heshuote people came in nearly a hundred years ago and killed Zanpu, the last generation of Tubo, they squeezed the living space of the Tubo people. .

Especially when King Khan was young, he went north to Hetao and was defeated by the Qi people, and a large amount of military equipment was thrown in Hetao.

Up to now, even the iron armor that was built at least 200 years ago in Tubo, which is rusty and out of shape, has to be scrambled for blood.
A garrison like myself would be happy for a long time to be assigned leather armor.

They were all armored!

The Central Plains is too rich.

As for the puddle of meat paste mixed with rags and printed with horseshoe marks on the front right, the veteran ignored it.

Not long after, several Yebushou came back from the interrogation, and they gave a pair of statements, and there was not much discrepancy.

A large army appeared in the distance, Jia Hun stood up and looked ahead.

Shi Yuanxiu and others arrived.

After nearly four months of high-intensity marching, they finally gained a firm foothold on the plateau.

The raiding force can finally take a rest.
