Xiliang Iron Cavalry

But seeing Zhao Yun's indomitable appearance, Zhao Li said angrily: "Shameless man, when Zhangye's reinforcements arrive in the future, I will definitely wipe you all under the city."

Jia Rong shook his head, people always have inverse scales, and Zhao Yun's skin color is relatively fair, so suddenly appearing on the battlefield may give people the idea of ​​being vulnerable, but after fighting, you will find out how much that idea is. Ridiculous.

The faces of the soldiers in the city were all pale, especially the scene where the cavalry defeated the infantry was like a nightmare, which made them unable to stop the fear in their hearts. The cavalry was indeed the king on the battlefield. Hit directly into the air and died tragically.

Zhao Yun led the cavalry to walk around in front of Dunhuang City in a swaggering manner, and returned to the camp with satisfaction.

A set of engineering ladders, rush cars, and wells were assembled under Zhao Li's surprised eyes. The soldiers climbed up the wells skillfully, and the ladders were slowly lifted to the front of the battle.

The two thousand cavalry closely watched the movement on the city, fearing that the city would send troops to attack the soldiers who attacked the city. After all, their numbers did not have an advantage.

"Cavalry, suppress bows and arrows!" Jia Rong gave an order, and two thousand cavalry headed towards the city of Dunhuang like a torrent. deficit.

Chess Li shouted: "Shield soldiers step forward, archers get ready."

Zhao Li was stunned, and also roared: "The shield soldiers stepped forward, and the archers shot me hard."

The rain of arrows counterattacked on the city did not cause substantial damage to the cavalry. The soldiers were negligent in fighting, and the hands that pulled the bowstring were a little trembling. After one arrow the bowstring breaks.

There was another dense rain of arrows. The soldiers on the city had been prepared for a long time. They hid behind the city wall and suffered few casualties. The discovery that they could avoid the rain of arrows by hiding under the city wall surprised many soldiers. No matter what the general ordered, they never showed their faces.

Chess was furious and led fifty soldiers to wander around the city, constantly yelling and cursing loudly, guarding him with a huge shield carefully guarded by his own soldiers, and the two thousand cavalry using segmented shooting methods, and the continuous rain of arrows made the defenders It is difficult for the army to raise its head.

The ladder was erected on the top of the city of Dunhuang, and the Xiliang army climbed up without hesitation.

"Those who dare to retreat! Kill without mercy!" Qi Li slashed a soldier hiding behind the city wall and shouted loudly.

Under the order of chess power, fifty soldiers killed dozens of soldiers in a row. The soldiers defending the city were terrified when they saw the blood-soaked chess power. Raising the weapons in their hands, some veterans in the army even spontaneously smashed the rolling stones down the ladder.

Hearing the screams from the siege soldiers, the timid defenders became more courageous. The Xiliang army is also a human being, and they will suffer pain and die if they are injured. It is better to be killed by their own people like this. Pick up the weapon in your hand, maybe you can survive.

"Qi Li, you are in charge of commanding the soldiers!" At the critical moment, Zhao Li handed over the commanding power to Qi Li.

Zhao Li stood proudly at the top of the city under the careful protection of more than a hundred soldiers.

The car slammed into the city gate of Dunhuang fiercely. Feeling the trembling city wall, the soldiers of the Xiliang Army became more aggressive.

Jinglan slowly moved towards the city wall, and a ladder was erected on the city wall, and the fearless Xiliang army quickly climbed up the ladder with their shields held high.

After Jing Lan approached the city wall, hand-to-hand combat began.

The blood of Paoze drove the blood of the soldiers on both sides, and the constant wandering of chess power mobilized the ferocity of the soldiers to a certain extent. Most of the soldiers in Bianjun were rebellious, and there was a restless blood in their bones.

In hand-to-hand combat, the disadvantage of the defenders' lack of training gradually emerged.

Two hours later, the Xiliang army retreated with gold, leaving a mess on the city wall. Many soldiers defending the city couldn't stand the bloody scene on the city, shouting and running, I don't know if it was because of victory or fear.

Jia Rong was very satisfied with the result of this battle. He lost more than 1000 troops, and the defenders of Dunhuang were also terrified. He believed that Dunhuang could be taken in just one battle.

"General, about [-] enemy troops appeared ten miles away."

Jia Rong was surprised: "Do you know where the soldiers in this army are?"

"My lord, it's probably Zhangye's army." Zhang Xiu cupped his fists and said.

"Okay, good time!" Jia Rong laughed and said, "Zhang Liao, lead your cavalry to defeat this army."

Excitement flashed in Zhang Liao's eyes, and he clasped his fists in agreement.

After Zhangye's reinforcements are defeated and the Xiliang army captures Dunhuang, the battle will become easier.

How could the three thousand Zhangye infantry be the opponents of Zhang Liao's tiger and wolf division? In the first day of junior high school, the powerful combat power of the cavalry overwhelmed this group of rookies with little combat experience. , Equipped with scimitars and stirrups, the combat effectiveness of the cavalry has more than increased.

The next day, the East had just turned pale, and the army outside the city was ready to go.

"Zhangye's three thousand soldiers were defeated by our army yesterday, Zhao Li, surrender as soon as possible, and my general will protect you from death!" Zhang Liao said loudly, carrying the banner of Zhangye's army.

There was a commotion among the defenders, and the reinforcements were defeated, which meant that they became alone.

"My lord is benevolent and righteous, and those who surrender will never be killed!"

The weapons in the hands of many defenders were lowered. Zhang Liao's roar broke most of their psychological defenses. Those who surrendered would not be killed. They were still struggling to support something here. It is the elite, no matter under whose command it is, it will not have the slightest influence on the soldiers at the bottom.

"Soldiers, don't listen to the rhetoric of the Xiliang army, take up the weapons in your hands and defend the city!" Zhao Li shouted.

Chess power is also constantly encouraging the soldiers under his command. In yesterday's battle, the defenders lost 2000 people. As the defender, the price paid was more than that of the attacker.

"Qi Li, I order you to be the chief general of the Dunhuang Army, with full authority to command the defense of the city!" Zhao Li released the military power in his hand.

"No!" Qi Li bowed on one knee.

Under the powerful impact of the car, the city gate became crumbling. Zhao Li gritted his teeth and came to the city to command the soldiers to fight. His chess power was promoted to a general in the army to assist him in defending the city. After yesterday's battle, Zhao Li discovered that chess power is not only martial arts Gao Qiang, and also a talented general, commanded the soldiers to fight calmly and with discipline, so he was appointed as the chief general of the Dunhuang Army.

"My lord, the Xiliang army's offensive will definitely be very fierce this time, please take refuge under the city." Qi Li persuaded.

Just as Zhao Li was about to agree, he saw crooked soldiers on the city, with broken arms and limbs everywhere, "My lord is the prefect of the city, how can I leave before the battle, and I would like to defend the city with all the soldiers."

Qi Li leaned over and said: "Qi Li is willing to die for your lord!"

Qi Li's father is Han, and his mother is Di. During the turmoil of the Di people, he followed Wu Yan to sweep up the surrounding rebellions, and the soldiers under his command can also be called hundreds of fighters.

Zhao Li raised his chess strength and said loudly: "If the city is destroyed, the family will die. I hope you can work together to defend Dunhuang."

The soldiers on the city saw the changes before and after, and they were all moved by Zhao Li's actions. One side of the prefect was able to stand on the city resolutely and persist in fighting, so why would they retreat? But it is firmly imprinted in the minds of many soldiers.

"Attack!" Jia Rong waved his hand, and it was still the cavalry that suppressed the soldiers on the city, and then rushed forward on the ladder, and more than ten wells slowly moved towards the city wall.

To Jia Rong's surprise, the defenders' resistance was stronger than yesterday's, and the soldiers were fearless of death.

Hearing the news reported by the messenger, Jia Rong sneered and remained silent.

The siege lasted about an hour, and the defenders on the city gradually became exhausted, and the continuous fighting was all due to their passion.

The battle between the two sides has fallen into a fierce stage. The soldiers of the Xiliang Army are well-equipped, but the soldiers of Dunhuang have the advantage of the city.

Suddenly, an armed force of about [-] men appeared at the gate of Dunhuang. There were not many soldiers guarding the gate, so they couldn't resist and were instantly defeated.

The gate of the city opened slowly, Zhang Liao led the cavalry to file in, and the situation of Dunhuang was over.

Zhao Li in the city shouted loudly, drew his sword and killed himself, his eyes like ashes of chess reluctantly swept across the robes on the city, and drew his sword to kill himself.

If it was placed two days ago, Qi Li would definitely choose to surrender to the Xiliang Army without hesitation, but Zhao Li's behavior today made him feel like a soldier would die for his confidant.

All the soldiers who resisted were killed, and they went out to comfort the people. Everything was going on in an orderly manner. The people walked out of the house, and the corpses were claimed one by one. On the contrary, he opened the warehouse, paid for the families of soldiers who died in war, and gained a lot of popularity.

The expected massacre of the city was not as Zhao Li said. On the contrary, after the Xiliang Army took over the town, a series of measures were completely beneficial to the people. Later, when the people of Dunhuang who had no information learned about the Xiliang Army’s governance in Jincheng Jiuquan, I greatly regret the unnecessary resistance at the beginning.

After the capture of Dunhuang, the Xiliang army took a short rest and marched into Zhangye, losing [-] soldiers. There were only more than [-] capable soldiers in Zhangye City. How could they resist the wolf-like Xiliang army.

Without the courage of Dunhuang prefect Zhao Li to regard death as home, Zhangye prefect Fan Hui led his soldiers to escape overnight.

Jia Rongbing won Zhangye without bloodshed. So far, the war in Liangzhou has basically come to an end.

While the Xiliang army was expanding its territory, the princes of the Central Plains also tore their last skins. For their own interests, they did not hesitate to fight each other. In addition, the Han Dynasty suffered a drought this year, and the fields were in vain.

In order to satisfy their own interests, the princes collected taxes recklessly, and the helpless people had to sell the fields in their hands. The aristocratic family took advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune and lost their fields.

Especially under Yuan Shu's rule, the army was aggressive and the people complained.
